"W-we should check terminal...if lights are working, so should terminal..."

[Guest]

[Guns]Cherry pulls the 9mm out of her saddlebags, she ejects the magazine and racks the slide to eject the chambered round, and instinctively flicking the safety on while keeping the barrel pointed toward the bottle."Okay, sweetie. This is a pistol, ah'm gonna show ya how ta use it properly."She looks at Flea"Now, sweetie, this is not a toy. It can and will kill people, ah'm not sayin' that ta scare ya, ah'm just want ya ta know, so ya understand how dangerous one these are."Her wing points at the pistol.

"The most important rule when usin' a firearm, is ta never, ever point it at anyone unless they're tryin' ta hurt ya and ya need ta protect yerself. Do ya understand?"She says seriously.

[Ketchup]

"There's nothing living here. EFS should have picked it up by now."
He says to the others as he looked around the room.
[PER Roll=3+1+2 EFS]

[MrMagma]

"...B-both. Hunting, mainly. Needed every scrap of food we could get."

[Guest]

"I don't wike woud noises." Flea said quietly. She turned to Cherry and gave a small nod taking what she said to heart.

[CamoBadger]

They find the terminal sitting on the Overmare's desk, awake and with three audiologs listed.

The oldest log is 5 months old.
The middle log is 2 months old.
The most recent is only 4 days old.

[Tytan]

"Not exactly ancient history," she says off-handedly. She Plays the oldest one.

[Ketchup]

Quiver downloads the recordings to his PipBuck.

[CamoBadger]

The speaker crackled briefly before a rather clear recording started.

This is Overmare Evening Star, Day something something here in Stable 35.
We've gotten a new transmission from outside today. It was a little scary at first since we were always told that there is NOTHING outside, but I guess it's good to know someone is alive out there.
The message didn't say much, only that any Stables that were still sealed should respond with their location and prepare for assistance. I've got Caramel Corn working on responding to them, but I have no idea how long it will take, or even if it was a live broadcast.


I still can't decide if I actually want them to hear us.

[Ketchup]

"P-Play the next one."
He says, worry creeping into his voice.

[Katarn]

Novae nervously gulped.

Jayne was standing at Overmare's office entrance, keeping eye on corridors.
[Perception 3 (9-2=7)]

[Tytan]

Clocks voice is quiet, "Oh goddess... I think I see where this is going." Clock plays the next one.

[Guest]

"Makes sense, with yer uh, diet. Guess they would be one in the same really."He says in genuine tone."...Say ya wanna help us out? Always nice ta have another pony ta help."

Cherry looks at Flea for a few more moments then nods"Okay, now, ah'll tell how the gun works."Her wing points at the mouth grip"This is yer grip, so unless ya know telekinesis. Ya gotta use yer teeth ta hold it."She points at the trigger"Then ya use yer tongue ta pull the trigger and fire the gun."

[Guest]

"Okay Chewwy." Flea said seemingly understanding everything so far.

[MrMagma]

"S-sorry, I never really was one for guns, or loud stuff." Eve paws at the ground. "I can stick around, though. An extra set of hooves couldn't hurt."

[CamoBadger]

Jayne doesn't see anything.


Well, we finally made contact with whoever it was outside. I don't know exactly who they are, but I spoke with a 'Scribe Corncob' who told me she would inform her command of our location and how many survivors we have.
She sounded nice enough, and I could tell she was genuinely glad to hear from us. She couldn't give me an exact day that they would get here, but she said that we would know when they did.

I hope it's soon. I've decided that I would rather get out of this damn cage than think about what might be waiting for us out there.

I just hope the others will agree.

[Scyto Harmony]

"... Do we have to listen to the next one? I know what happens next and I don't want to hear it in this mare's own voice..."

[Ketchup]

"I hope our Overmare didn't respond if she received this message... if we even had the capacity to respond... she told me specifically not to share the location of 16..."
He says, breathing quickly.
"Play the last one."

[Katarn]

"Steel Rangers..." Jayne spits on floor.

"I-I agree with Mince." Novae seemed quite nervous.

[Tytan]

"Rangers..." Clock looks at the bodies in the atrium. "I'm getting a powerful urge to open some tin cans." Clock heads back to the terminal and plays the last recording.

[Guest]

Shadow nods"Works fer me, ah'm sure Flea would like ya around. And yeah, ah know what ya mean. Always liked knives myself."

Cherry nods"Just try not ta talk too much when holdin' it. Don't want ta accidentally shoot someone."her wing then points at a hole in the bottom of the grip"This is yer mag well, it's where ya put the magazine in."Her other wing puts at the magazine and ejected round on the ground "And that's yer magazine, it's what holds the bullets*Points at the bullet* ya shoot at the bad ponies."

She takes the magazine and shows Flea how to put it in."Then this little button*She points at it*Is the mag release. Ya push the button and the magazine comes out. See?"She pushes the button and the magazine slides out.

[Guest]

"I fink so." Flea said with another small nod.

[CamoBadger]

We were wrong, so so wrong.
They didn't care about helping us. Whoever they are, they just came in and started shooting us all. If anyone ever finds this, please, make sure nobody responds to-

The sound of a door opening followed by a long burst of gunfire cut off the mare's voice. It was soon replaced by stomping metal hooves and a filtered, mechanical voice, and a soft feminine one.
Charlie Six, this is Delta 3. Top floor cleared, you're free to move down.

...

Roger that Charlie Six, see you then.
They're on their way down, Ma'am.

Perfect, please finish up here and strip everything useful. We have other dates to keep.

Of course Ma'am, we'll get it done.

Perfect. See if there is a map of other Stables or any frequencies around. We wouldn't want to leave anypony behind.

Of course.

[Katarn]

"We need to warn your Stable, Quiver...as soon as we can."

[Scyto Harmony]

Mince sighs, "Nothing good ever comes to a Stable..." He murmurs.

[Tytan]

Clock is silent for a long time, visibly seething, "I almost forgot how it feels to have an old fashioned hate."

[Ketchup]

Quiver is silent for a while before speaking.
"...I have to go home."
He starts walking towards the exit.
"And Mince... shut the fuck up."

[Katarn]

Two moves with Quiver towards exit.

[MrMagma]

"Y-yeah, I've always preferred..." Eve looks down at her hooves. Or more specifically, the set of hoof-claws she was wearing. She sighs sadly. "Ya know."

[Guest]

"Ya certainly are a smart little filly, ain't ya?"She smiles, then uses her wing to point at a lever at the rear of the slide"This is a very important part, it's called the safety."She flicks the lever down, then back up"When the safety is up or 'on', like it is now, ya can't shoot the gun because it locks the hammer in place."She points at the hammer just behind the slide."When the safety is 'off' ya can shoot."

She then points to a lever that's flush with the slide"This is the slide catch, what it does is it well, catches the slide and locks it in place once the gun is empty, like this."She pulls the slide back, and pushes the lever up to hold the slide."Then once ya put in a new magazine, push the lever down and the slide goes forward."She pushes the lever and the slide goes forward.

Her wing points at the notches on top of the slide"These are yer sights, ya look through'em ta see where yer gun is pointin' and it'll give ya an idea of where the bullet is gonna go when ya pull the trigger."

Shadow sighs and looks at the claws"Yeah, ah know what ya mean."
