Title: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Redacted on 2014 Sep 20, 00:49:47
This a RP With a DarkSide (Revealed later!) Yet it is you to decide what happens to this secret and how it affects you and the Rp
It opens up in ManeHattan, and it starts out as a city RP til the twist.... (i will be using an OC named Tornado Jam Who is homeless at the time)

Tornado Jam flew to the top of the city looking down. Talking to himself he says "The city never sleeps" Watching the streets as ponies walk by the lines of shops.He then curls up into Fetal Position and sleeps...

Maple really hadn't had time to think about it yea he had a good job good house but he felt there should be something else there as the cyberpony walked down the street. ((Opening post this sounds interesting ))

Lynx Talon walks around seeing what the stores had to offer before seeing the pony sleeping on the ground.

Hey mister, you know it's dangerous to be sleeping here.

Flutteron (Yep that's my OC's name for RPing) flew around and saw Lynx. She stopping circling the city and watched him in the air.

Tornado Jam opens one eye and quickly flies into the air. "Hey look man i'm not looking for trouble! I have no money a group of thugs took it all earlier today"

Still frightened Tornado Jam summons a dust devil large enough to conceal him and gets away. He takes refuge in an allyway.

(This sounds like it could be fun! ^-^)

Book Keeper sighed in dejection as she walked the streets of Manehattan; this was the third lead that hadn't panned out. Maybe she would never find him.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!

Dang, I lost him. He says swatting the dust away.

Tornado flies up atop a different building and attempts to sleep again.

Lynx Talon looks around and finds a mare walking towards him muttering about something. He walks over to the mare. Hello there, is there something I can help you with?

Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 22, 03:02:04
Book Keeper, startled out of her reverie, looked at the pony addressing her and gave him a weak smile. "I-I would appreciate help. But I don't know if you can help me with this. "
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!

"I've been looking for a unicorn named Quick Start. But I can't find him; it's as if he's disappeared off of the face of Equestria. No one seems to remember him either; not even his own family! The leads I've got have all been dead ends, and quite frankly, I don't know what to do at this point."
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Sep 22, 12:23:07
Lynx Talon pulls up some information on his portable console. I remember him, he was last seen 3 weeks ago shopping, but he disappear without a trace. We should start our search there.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 22, 15:23:05
Book Keeper's eyes lit up at the news. "Oh, thank you so much!" she cried, and hugged the other pony tightly.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Redacted on 2014 Sep 22, 17:53:46
Tornado Jam couldn't sleep and over watched them talking and saw the Mobile Console. 'Dang' he thinks 'That be good to get my hands on'. He then swoops in, creates a dust devil, and takes the console.

Not being one to shirk from her civic duty,  Book Keeper added her levitation spell as well to the pegasus.

You dare steal from me, I may not be royalty, but I am a very important pony here. He takes his portable console back.

Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 23, 11:07:08
Book Keeper let out a breath she didn't know she'd been holding. "So we search now?" she asked the other unicorn.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Sep 23, 11:08:52
I am an alicorn, I have wings and a horn. We should start searching, but where to start?
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 23, 11:12:29
"I don't know! You said you last saw him shopping three weeks ago, and that we should start there!"

That is the best idea. He starts walking to the market.

A lone pony sat in her store - hours after she had closed, her cheek pressed against the glass as she slumped to the side on the bale of hay. She was tired and didn't want to go home and have to clean again. She was just thinking about how overwhelmed and unsatisfied she was with her life until she noticed some commotion outside her window. There were several ponies having some kind of fight. One of ponies was an alicorn! Scribble's heart swelled. She was always so interested in alicorns and now there was one right outside her window on Mane Street!

Scribble unlocked the shop door and wandered outside, tripping over the sidewalk - she didn't realize how sleep-deprived she was - and gaped at the scene unfolding before her.

Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 28, 01:47:11
Book Keeper turned her head towards the alicorn with a dangerous look in her eyes.

"You have some explaining to do, Mister," she said heatedly.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Sep 28, 09:43:30
Terribly sorry, I just heard something off in the distance. I have a special trait that gives me greater situational awareness than normal ponies. My response to it was to be expected.

"I - how? - are you? - did you just? - ?" Scribble's eyes flicked between the two ponies until she started to stare at the alicorn. "Your majesty!" She bowed so low and quickly that she hit her head on the sidewalk. Her cheeks flushed in embarrassment. A little light headed from being in the presence of alicorn power and hitting her head, she promptly fainted. She still had her saddlebag on, like she did everyday and it flipped open revealing a rare, magical book Scribble carried around with her everywhere about the history and abilities of alicorns.

Book Keeper caught the unicorn with her levitation spell before she fell to the ground. "Lnyx, can you do something?" she asked the alicorn.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Sep 28, 15:23:43
Sure. He uses his healing magic to bring the mare to consciousness.

Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Sep 28, 15:32:52
Scribble slowly blinked and saw two blurry faces through the aura of levitation magic. Then she blushed. The alicorn was looking right at her. And he was handsome.
"I saw you chasing ..." But Scribble was two scrambled to finish her sentence. The embarrassment of having to be cared for, the presence of an alicorn, and trying to remember the scene that unfolded before her was too much. So she asked the most obvious question. "Who are you?"
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Sep 28, 15:40:30
I'm Lynx Talon and I appreciate your respect, but I'm not royalty even though I look like I am.

Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 28, 15:44:13
"And I'm Book Keeper!" the aforementioned unicorn added. She frowned. "Are you alright now?"
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Sep 28, 15:58:32
"I think so." She stood back up on all four hooves. "And thanks." she added. "I'm Scribble Books. I closed my bookshop and was just moping up when I saw three - no - four? ponies. Usually the street is really quiet and I stepped out for a bit out of curiosity. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw an alicorn ... sir," she added awkwardly. "What are you ponies up to anyway?" Scribble panicked and clamped her mouth shut. What if these ponies were up to know good? Would they steal her away to silence her? She shouldn't have said that. She should NOT have said that. She blushed all the way up to her ears.
"Nevermind me. I'll just let you be. I didn't see anything, I promise." Scribble nervously laughed and hurried to open her shop, tried to open it. It was locked. She automatically locked it as she went out, her keys still laying on the counter inside. She was backed into a corner with no where to go. No place to escape. She knelt down and cowered, waiting for the inevitable blow to happen. "Just kill me quickly she said."
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 28, 16:07:52
Book Keeper's jaw dropped. She was at a loss for words, which happened rarely with her.

"We-we're not here to kill you," she said weakly. "W-whatever gave you that idea?"
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Maplewood on 2014 Sep 28, 22:03:59

Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Sep 29, 07:35:59
The reassuring ponies eased some of Scribble's nerves. But she was still confused. "There was a tornado and a fourth pony you were chasing. Why? Who are you ponies?" Scribble felt a little better, but still stayed in the fetal position. She didn't trust these ponies. They were hiding something, she was sure of it. Why else would they be up running around in the middle of the night?

Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Sep 29, 22:50:44
Scribble Books smiled at Book Keeper. She was obviously trying to lighten the mood and it helped Scribble feel a little safer. She felt like she could be friends with her. They probably shared similar interests, namely books. She still wasn't sure about the other ponies. Lynx Talon said he did top secret missions, which made Scribble nervous, and the pony standing behind them started whispering something, which also made Scribble suspicious about this group of ponies. She  decidedly didn't trust the Lynx and the pony standing back in the darkness. Even her fascination with alicorns couldn't save her from her doubts. Actually meeting one wasn't as fanciful as she daydreamed it would be - in fact it was rather intimidating. A pony with wings and a horn now seemed other-earthly and bizarre, like a feverish dream.
But on the other hand, she liked Book Keeper and if she was friends with the other ponies and trusted them, then they probably weren't as bad as Scribble pictured.
"I feel like I can trust you, Book Keeper. And if you're friends with these other two ponies then I think I can trust them too. I was going to go home after I closed shop, but if you need my help with something then I promise I will do what I can to help you."
Suddenly a tornado sprung out of no where. Scribble jumped and grabbed the pony closest to her which happened to be Book Keeper and hid her face in her mane until the wind died down.

"There there," Book Keeper patted the unicorn mare holding onto her for dear life reassuringly. She looked at her and said, "Thanks, I really appreciate it. I came to Manehattan to look for a missing pony named Quick Start. Lynx here said that he'd  help me search, and if you will too, we might be able to find him!"
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Sep 30, 09:29:09
Scribble let go of Book Keeper. "You're friend's missing? That's awful! I will help you find him." Scribble smiled a real smile for the first time in a long time. "Just like a real-life adventure." she said. So that's what these ponies were up to. They were all helping her new friend find a lost pony. She decided she liked alicorns again and decided that the weirdness she experience was no different than other ponies' weirdnesses. Even I'm weird! Scribble smiled again. She felt her confidence flooding back and despite everything that had scared her before, none of it seemed important anymore. There was a lost pony that needed to be found and she was going to do what she could to help these ponies on their mission.
Scribble pulled out a quill and parchment from her saddlebag and wrote a note for her brother, Scrabble, that helped her run her bookshop. 'Scrabble - I met some ponies that need my help. I don't know how long I'll be gone, but I'm in good company. One of them is an alicorn! (I think I might like him). You'll be fine running the shop by yourself and don't forget this friday is half-off on foal's books. Love, Scribble.' Scribble tucked the note in the crack of the door.
When Lynx whispered to her, it felt like something a special somepony would do and she blushed. She officially had a crush on the handsome alicorn.

The alicorn was a gentleman too! He was so close to her. He whispered to her. He was an alicorn. He was handsome and mysterious; mysterious like a good story. Scribble couldn't hold it in any longer. She leaned forward, closed her eyes, and kissed Lynx Talon on the mouth.

Lynx Talon is struck silent by the unexpected kiss from Scribble, a very pleasant surprise from a beautiful mare. His thoughts were racing until a vision from a prior battle entered his mind which he curled into a ball on the ground shaking intensely.

His pupils became very tiny as his SEED factor became active.

Book Keeper held up her hooves to her mouth with stars in her eyes and a goofy smile on her face.

The kiss was warm and even though she felt Lynx hesitate at first, he seemed receptive afterwards. The thrill of kissing made Scribble feel like flying (if she had wings). That was until she felt a shudder go through the alicorn and he dropped to the ground and started shaking, his pupils shrank, and something started to beep.
Scribble put a hoof to her mouth. What have I done?
If she knew her kiss would have this kind of reaction, she would never have done it. The alicorn had completely changed from a strong, confident stallion to a tiny colt that was hiding under his covers afraid of the thunder. Scribble knelt down and looked Lynx in the eyes, which seemed to look right through her into some terrible nightmare. Scribble blinked back a tear. "Lynx? Lynx Talon? Can you hear me? I-I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that, I'm sorry."
She hugged Lynx around the neck, hugging him tightly, trying to bring back the confident stallion she loved. Her perfumed mane fell over her shoulders and across Lynx's muzzle. Scribble cried openly.

Lynx hears Scribble and snaps out the spell, he then stands up looking at Scribble his SEED Factor still active.

Sorry about worrying you, I'm alright. (Dang it, I thought I had mastered this ability. I guess not.) He hugs her back kissing her cheek and rubbing her head.

Book Keeper's expression changed from one of glee to one of horror when Lynx fell to the ground, twitching. Before she could do anything, the brown unicorn rushed forward and hugged the alicorn, crying. She breathed a sigh of relief when Lnyx snapped out of his flashback, and smiled that goofy smile of hers when he kissed the unicorn's cheek and hugged her.

You snapped me out of the flashback I was having. Well since you two know about my eyes, you mustn't tell anypony. His heightened dimension sense picks up the stallion hiding in the shadows recording their actions. He fires his mana beam only aiming to scare him off and not hit him.

Book Keeper mouth dropped open in surprise when Lnyx fired the mana beam.

For Scribble, it didn't matter what happened next. She had love, she had adventure, and she felt like she had known these two ponies all her life even though she had only met them a few minutes ago.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 30, 10:27:42
Book Keeper stood there gaping for a moment, then shook her head quickly. "It's not that, but the amount of power that I felt behind it! That was an incredible amount of power! I mean, I know you're an alicorn and all, but still!"

Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Sep 30, 10:30:35
Yes we should start looking for Quick Start. He takes a few deep breaths and his eyes return to normal.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 30, 10:37:58
Book Keeper nodded. "Okay. Lynx said he saw Quick three weeks ago in the market, so lets start there now. By the way, I never did catch your name."

(btw, Quick Start should NOT be found easily. He's part of Book Keeper's backstory, so this might get incorporated, and it should take a lot of effort to find him)
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Sep 30, 10:41:56
Darling, Book Keeper is asking for your name. I hope that pony doesn't try to follow us again. Alicorns do have stronger magic than unicorns, but we train constantly to keep it under control.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Sep 30, 10:47:57
Book Keeper nodded. "I know that; I'm just not used to seeing that level of power."

"Nevertheless, the amount of power that yours truly can produce is insignificant next to yours," Book Keeper stated in a matter-of-fact tone.

I know this is back-pedaling, but I didn't get a chance to show Scribble's reaction...

As Scribble hugged Lynx, she began to feel him stir. He blinked and his eyes seemed to refocus. The stallion hugged her back, kissing her on the cheek, which made Scribble blush again. But he was alright. Scribble breathed a sigh of relief and wiped her tears away with the back of her hoof and sniffed. Now that everything was back to normal, they could start searching for the missing pony and go on an adventure!

Book Keeper asked for Scribble's name.
"Oh! I'm sorry." said Scribble. "I'm Scribble Books and my special talent is Creativity. I'm excited to start this search with you two. Where was the last place you saw your friend ... um ... Quick Start? Maybe we should start there and ask ponies around there if they've seen him. How long has he been lost?"

Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Sep 30, 21:42:01
Three weeks. Anything could happen to a pony in three weeks. Just thinking about it made her choke up a little bit. And the courage that these ponies had to go and search for him just spoke of commitment and sacrifice.
Scribble's ears turned red when Lynx Talon grabbed her hoof. But she was ready. They, all of them together, were going to find this missing pony. It was time to get started.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Oct 01, 00:52:30
(Quick Start has been missing for a LOT more than three weeks. Lynx just happened to see him 3 weeks prior ovO mysterious,  isn't it? )

"H-hey, wait!" Book Keeper spluttered, and she rushed to catch up with the cute pair.

"So, how long have you been living in Manehattan?" Book Keeper asked Scribble, breathing a little heavier.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Maplewood on 2014 Oct 01, 01:11:06

Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Oct 01, 09:23:44
Scribble paused and waited for Book Keeper to catch up. "I've been living in Manehatten for only a few months. I'm actually from Ponyville originally and moved up here to help my brother run his book shop. That's why I didn't know how to react when I first saw you ponies. Maybe if I lived here longer I would have shrugged it off. But everything's quiet in ponyville afterdark except for the crickets."

Well this is a city, Ponyville is a small rural town. There are things that happen here that many don't know about. Although I assure you it is nothing to worry about. He takes a deep breath making his SEED Factor become active. His pupils become very small and he gains the heightened dimensional sense. Don't worry, this ability makes my eyes do this.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Oct 01, 09:41:49
"Ability? What kind of ability?" Book Keeper asked curiously and a little loudly from her mounting excitement.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Oct 01, 09:44:35
I have a special ability that makes my pupils get real small, this ability heightens my dimensional sense. I can see things that others don't.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Oct 01, 09:54:38

Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Oct 01, 09:54:55
"Is that alicorn magic? Do all alicorns have that ability or is that your special talent?"
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Oct 01, 10:09:21
It is neither, I have genetic augmentations that give me different abilities than other alicorns. I can't tell you anymore, it is classified. I apologize.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Oct 01, 10:40:44
Scribble had dozens of questions buzzing around in her head,

Have you had this since birth?
If not, was the process painful?
How does your special sight work? Can you see through walls or just see in the dark?
Is it classified because you're some kind of special experiment? Is it classified because you work for a secret organization that gave you this ability and any more information about the ability would make it possible to trace the ability back to the secret organization and then it wouldn't be secret anymore?
Are there other genetically enhanced ponies like you?
What sorts of powers and abilities could you give a pony through genetic augmentation?
Was it given only to alicorns because they were strong enough to handle it? Or could other ponies get genetic augmentations?


But Scribble respected that there was a limit of information Lynx was willing to share and clamped her mouth shut as her imagination ran wild about secret organizations and genetically enhanced ponies.

"So where are we going to start looking for Quick Start? What kind of pony is he like and when did he start going missing?"

Book Keeper booped Scribble Books lightly on the head when she saw the expression on the unicorn's face. "Don't let your thoughts run away with you," she said a little sternly. "There's a time and place for this, and it's called fanfiction."
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!

Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Oct 01, 11:43:46
"We're headed towards the market; Lnyx said he saw Quick Start there three weeks ago. As for how long he's been missing," Book Keeper's ears drooped as she continued with a dejected look on her face, "a long, long time. I recently received an anonymous tip saying that I could find him here in Manehattan, even with leads provided! But they turned out to be fruitless. If it hadn't been for Lnyx, I don't know what I would have done. And as for what kind of pony he is," Book Keeper's expression lightened, "He's smart and he's brave and he's annoying and he's funny and he really gets on your nerves and he's kind and he's fun and...and...and...I really like him," Book Keeper whispered, blushing furiously.

"I'm really sorry about your friend." Scribble said solemnly. "Do have any idea why he's lost? Like did he get pony-napped or got in with the wrong crowd or works for a top-secret organization?" Scribble glanced at Lynx to see if he reacted to 'top secret organization.'
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Oct 01, 12:06:09
Book Keeper shook her head. "I was...busy during the time that he must have disappeared. The really odd thing is how it happened. When I went to his family's mansion to see him, they claimed to not have a clue as to whom I was talking about.The records from City Hall also disappeared; it's as if he's never existed!"

"Wow! That's very strange. I don't know if this will help at all, but a week ago, a strange character came into Happy Tails Book Shop. He seemed very tired and grim. He was a dark maroon earth pony and old with light blue hair that was starting to gray. What really caught my attention though was what he said to me. He bought mystery a book for colts about a young gray pegasus that has to deal with a friend he disagrees with. When he bought it, he asked me, 'Is this true?', pointing to the young pegasus on the cover. I told him I didn't know what he meant. Then he ignored me as if he had never asked the question in the first place, put the book in his saddlebag and walked out the store.
Again, I have no idea if this has anything to do with Quick Start missing. But if it is a lead, I have the book with me. After the strange encounter, I've been studying the book. I can't find anything unusual about it, but you two know more about the situation. Maybe you might find something useful?" Scribble handed the book to Lynx to look at. Maybe his special sight would help pick up any clues. "The book he wanted looked a little used like someone had been messing with it. The corners were bent and one of the pages had markings on it. I tried to sell him a newer, nicer edition, but he wouldn't have it, so I simply switched books when he wasn't looking. The book I've got here is the marked up one he wanted."

He flips through the pages reading the entire book in seconds. Hmm, interesting. Why would some pony write magical runes on the pages?

It is a teleportation spell and reading it would teleport us to wherever it takes the caster.

"That's great! If we use it then we might be one step closer to finding Quick Start. Do you think we should use it? It's not dark magic or anything like that, right?" Scribble looked up, thinking. "If it was dark magic and had some kind of hold on it or made it easy to read in wrong or only a certain pony was allowed to use then we might get split up or it would send us into a cave with lava-spewing tarantulas. Or maybe our bodies would get ripped apart so half of us would be where we started and the other half would be someplace new." Scribble glanced side to side, her mind wild with horrific possibilities. "Or maybe it'll turn us all into dragons or control our minds so we turn evil and have to do the bidding of who's ever behind this. Or maybe ..." Scribble stopped, finally aware that her frenzy started to make the others stare.
"Sorry." Scribble blushed.
"So, um. What would happen if we used the spell?" Scribble said casually.

Book Keeper meanwhile had started trembling when she saw the book that Scribble Books had taken out.

"That...that was Quick Start's book," she said in all but a whisper. She stared at it for a few moments longer before lifting her eyes to Scribble Books,  and asked in a hurt voice,  "How did this get into your shop?"

(Don't worry,  Book Keeper is just emotional right now about this, she probably doesn't think that you had something to do with it X3 also, I know where those runes lead now)
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Oct 02, 00:43:59
I'm not sure, but it isn't dark magic. We could get closer to finding Quick Start by using the spell, but there is no telling unless we try.

"This is Quick Start's? Wow, I had no idea." Scribble said solemnly. Scribble handed the book to Book Keeper while Lynx walked off into the darkness. Scribble pushed aside Book's mane and leaned in to hug her tightly. She hoped she could  comfort the grieving pony but had never lost someone like Book Keeper had and didn't know what to say.
As Scribble hugged her friend, she heard Lynx in the distance ask a dark alley 'why are you following us?' Then Scribble remembered that Lynx could see things other ponies couldn't with his special eyes and the comforting hug became a bit tighter. "We-We're being followed?!" Stammered Scribble. "Do we know who it is? Have we been followed this whole time?" Scribble started to shake. "I-it's okay." Scribble took a deep breath to calm herself down. "It's going to be okay. We have Lynx. He's an alicorn and everything is going to be alright. He'll protect us."
Suddenly a pony appeared out of the darkness and Scribble hugged Book Keeper even tighter.

Lynx and the mysterious pony were talking and edging closer to Scribble and Book Keeper. Normally Scribble would have been terrified, but with Lynx nearby, she felt empowered and decided to confront to mysterious pony herself. She stiffened her neck and cantered purposefully over to stand next to Lynx. A little shiver went down her spine, but she swished her tail and held her chin up.
"Look, I don't know who you think you are or what you want or why you're following us, but I can tell you right now that sneaking around in the dark and following us is a bad idea. Maybe you're here because you believe it's the right thing to do, but I know that our quest is noble and the ponies with me, my friends, have nobility in their hearts. Our friendship," Scribble glanced at Lynx, "our love, unites us and makes us strong. I don't know if you've been hurt in your past and that's why you're out here alone in the dark, but I believe that if you join us and become our friend, that you will see just how much better life can be. So, I'm asking you, from pony to pony, do you have what it takes to be a true friend? Do you have nobility in your heart or not?" Scribble stepped closer to the strange pony. "Will you join us in looking for a lost pony, or will you remain in the shadows, letting them darken your heart? Will you be my friend?" Scribble reached out her hoof. "Do you have the courage to change paths and join with us in the bond of friendship?"

Scribble still offered her hoof as the pony moved away, giving him a second chance, but once she realized that he had turned her down, turned all of them down, she was heart broken. She just couldn't stand the thought of this pony choosing to remain in the shadows and with darkness in his heart, rather than choosing the full and happy life of friendship. She pushed herself closer to Lynx, who was already showing his support with his wing over her back, and  buried her face in Lynx's strong neck and sobbed for the lost pony.
"T-this never happens in ponyville." She said to Lynx. Then she turned back to the mysterious pony. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry that you've chosen darkness. But my offer still stands. If you ever change your mind, it doesn't matter what you've done or what you're planning, friendship can heal it." Then she turned around and started walking towards the market place. Dejected, but still confident that the pony would turn around eventually. Maybe once he saw how close Lynx, Book Keeper, and Scribble were and how they help each other, he would realize what he had been missing and change his mind. Maybe Scribble was just naive, but she really believed friendship could solve anything - including finding a lost pony. They had the book they had Lynx with his special skills, they had Book Keeper and her experience and knowledge of Quick Start. And Scribble had hope, and she had her friends and her friends had each other. There was nothing they couldn't accomplish.

Lynx walks with Scribble and starts whispering to her. It will be alright, not everypony is open to friendship right away. I guess I can start opening up to you. I'm not a normal pony per say, I am a genetically enhanced pony. The special trait I possess is called SEED Factor, I also possess greater strength, intellect, and reaction speed compared to normal ponies. This is highly classified, I am only telling you because I....uhh....love....you. He blushes slightly and hugs Scribble Books. You mustn't tell others about my abilities, it will make others want to be like me.

Scribble wiped her tears and leaned in closer to Lynx, feeling his strong wing around her as if he was shielding her from her heartache. It felt warm, and soft and she couldn't help but smile. When he told her his secret, she knew it was the ultimate act of trust and her heart swelled knowing that Scribble was that special to him. She wondered how many ponies he had told or if she was the only one. And when he told her that he loved her, she felt a little dizzy and leaned on Lynx, letting herself fell supported by his strength. But despite feeling dizzy, she felt full - from the tip of her tail to the tip of her horn. The feeling washed through her, back and forth, back and forth. It made her heady one moment then full the next (as if she had just eaten a good meal), then it washed across her spine, making her shiver, then down to her hooves making them feel hot and heavy. Scribble stumbled a bit. But she was so full of love that her next words slipped out easily. "I love you too, Lynx Talon." Scribble looked up at him and stared into his eyes. "I love you." Then she buried her nose in his mane by his ear. "Thanks for trusting me. I promise you I will do everything I can to keep your secret safe." She raised herself on the tips of her hooves and kissed Lynx on the cheek.

Thank you Scribble, I know we will be very happy together. I hope someday we will have foals to love and cherish. He gives a ring with a huge diamond on it to Scribble placing it on her horn. He bows to her. I ask for your hoof in marriage.

(Er, um, dark hooves,  Book Keeper shall speak for me X3 also that pic is really cute scribble :3 I think though that it's bigger than the sig size allowed)

Book Keeper squeed again at the sight of Scribble Books and Lnyx Talon leaning in together. But a frown immediately appeared on her face at the sight of the ring.

"You can't do that here," she whispered, not wanting to ruin the moment. "It needs to be at a place special to one or both of you."

A proposal can be at any place, I decided to do it here and now. It isn't about the place anyways, it is about making the mare feel like she is the most cherished pony in all Equestria.

Maple watched from the alley a look of shock on his face"did they just get...married" he said the last part kinda weird like "hey did get the target freelancer we've been expecting you to be done by now" the voice asked  coming out of his communicator "but I can't they just got married" maple argued."WHAT that's amazing news get both of them then" the voice finished turning off with a beep.

Lynx stands up waiting for Scribble's answer, but he is expecting a yes from her. He hears the beep and fires another warning shot towards Maple. Be gone, loner. He mutters to himself.

(It was supposed to be a whisper that you didn't hear X3 my point is that a momentous occasion such as a marriage proposal deserves a special place for it to occur)

Book Keeper smiled back. Though she was a little unhappy about the place, she was nevertheless excited for the absolutely cute couple.

'Maybe I should brush up on my illusion spells,' she thought to herself.

Scribble was already dizzy from the announcement of love. The marriage proposal was simply too much for her. Scribble's heart beat quickly and her eyes started to lose focus. She managed to squeak out a "yes" before she lost consciousness.

By the time Scribble regained consciousness, the ponies had entered the market. She felt herself rocking and the smell of  Lynx's mane tickled her nose, mixed with the smells of the market. She lifted her head and realized she was sitting on the back of Lynx. I must have fainted again. She tried to remember what exactly happen before she blacked out and then she remembered the Lynx had just asked for her hoof in marriage. Scribbled smiled. She was engaged to an alicorn. And not just any alicorn, Lynx Talon; the most skilled, strongest, sweetest, smartest stallion in all of Equestria. I can't wait until I tell my brother about this, Scribble thought. Still perched on Lynx's back, she hugged Lynx around the neck and leaned in to whisper her answer in his ear. "Marrying you would make me the happiest mare in all of Equestria. Yes. A thousand times yes."

Scribble smiled, kissed Lynx on the cheek, and climbed down off of his back. She felt like skipping, but they weren't planning the wedding yet, they were here on a mission. "Where was it in the market you saw Quick Start? Where should we start looking? Is there a pony here that we need to find?"

Book Keeper reached the fruit stand,  but to her dismay,  it was boarded up for the night. A fresh sense of loss filled her as a cold wind blew through the area, carrying small pieces of garbage with it.

"What now?" she all but whispered to herself.

"I feel like I could fly," said Scribble, skipping to Lynx's side.

When she saw the pony that had been following them, she was hoping he was going to change his mind and become friends with them. When Lynx slammed him into the abandoned fruit stand, she gasped and rushed to the hurting pony. "Are you alright?" she said, offering her hoof to help him stand.

Following the events of the strange pony, Book Keeper narrowed her eyes. There was something off about him...why would he have been following them all this time if he was just hungry? Still, she kept her thoughts to herself, as it COULD possibly have been true.

Scribble watched the pony go, saddened that even though they ate together, and shared food, he still wasn't going to be her friend. But she couldn't think about that now or she would get teary-eyed again.
She looked at Lynx, "Are you going to caste the spell now? Do you know what will happen? I mean, I'm all for adventure, but is it going to be safe?" She took Lynx's hoof and whispered, "I don't want to lose you." Knowing that he would still be able to hear it.

We'll be just fine, it is just a teleportation spell. I will read it aloud, we will need to hold hooves so we don't get separated. He notices that Scribble has grabbed his hoof and smiles at her. You won't lose me Scribble. He whispers to her. Because of my enhancements I can survive injuries that would be the end of a normal pony. I even been exposed to the heat of the atmosphere and survived with only a fever.

Lynx's confidence boosted Scribble's and she gripped Lynx hoof tighter, not out of fear but as a small gesture to communicate her trust. She smiled and Lynx and then Book Keeper. "Lets go find Quick Start."
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2014 Oct 11, 17:47:59
With a sudden flash, the three ponies arrived at their destination. A thick layer of dust coated the room they now found themselves in. Various objects littered it; some books, children's toys, and other knick-knacks and chachkis. A desk with a lamp sat across from them at the far side of the room. A strange symbol was carved on all the walls of the room.

Book Keeper stared in shock.

Post by: Dark Hooves on 2014 Oct 12, 15:38:49
Scribble! His SEED factor activates from the sadness. He uses his magic to destroy the markings without looking at any of them. He picks up Scribble and the engagement ring, he takes her outside of the building. He starts digging a hole in the ground with his magic while grieving over his fiancé's death. Tears are seen running down his cheeks. I promise.....I will....find a....way....to....resurrect you. For now...you...may...rest...in...peace. He gently places Scribble in the hole he dug and carefully covers her body with the dirt. He levitates a stone over and shapes it into a grave marker and carves "Here lies Scribble Books, may you rest in peace" on it. He places the grave marker in the ground near her head still sobbing over her death.

She had had to watch her friend die, frantically reviewing her mind for anything that could help, but it had been over too quickly.

"N-no," she whimpered, and she wept.

"I want to see what else was in the room," Book Keeper called out as she headed inside. "This must have been an important place, for such a deadly trap!"

She avoided looking at the spot where her friend had been (don't think about it don't think about it), and flipped open one of the books lying on the floor.

Journal Entry #1
Today Book Keeper gave me this journal, so that I, in her words, 'can finally cease prattling about ideas for business, and actually get to work planning them'. I think I shall use it instead as a personal diary, just to get under her skin. She's so cute when she gets mad; she's way too serious about life.


Book Keeper smiled fondly at the memory. Quick Start had always been going on about his different ideas for the businesses he wanted to run, and so she had gotten him the journal so as to shut him up. She had been quite mad the day that he told her what he was actually using it for. But that had been a long time ago.

I tried asking him about it, but he waved it off, saying that he was alright. I'm going to keep an eye on him for the next few days; hopefully it will turn out to be nothing.


Book Keeper frowned, and skipped ahead a few entries.

Journal Entry #17
Book Keeper found for me an obscure spell that creates a one way audio link between two objects. She was very interested in what I wanted it for, but I mentioned one of my ideas to her, and she promptly lost interest. I haven't told her what I'm up to; the last thing I want is for her to be caught up in something bad. With any luck, I'll get an idea of what Father is doing.


"I think Quick Start was on to something," Book Keeper said as she showed Lnyx the journal.

Book Keeper flipped through some more entries.

"The next few entries details Quick Start's attempts to find out what his father was up to," Book Keeper summarized for Lynx. "He was involved in...some sort of cult? I think?" She looked at another entry, then sighed. "It's getting late. Let's get some sleep, then meet up again at the market tomorrow morning."

Book Keeper walked upstairs to find a simple guestroom. She deposited her saddlebags with a groan, then plopped straight onto the bed.

"Whew, I'm beat," she murmured. Within a few minutes, she was fast asleep.

Lynx lies down, but finds himself unable to sleep. Everytime he tries to, he gets the image of Scribble Books meeting her demise by the runes on the wall.

I guess I'm not getting any sleep then. He mutters to himself.

A brown unicorn stallion with shaggy, unkept red hair gallops through the streets. His cutie mark is a stack of books and it looks like he's been crying. "Where is she? Where is she?" He carries a saddlebag. Stopping for a moment, he pulls out a handwritten note and reads it several times as if looking for something unwritten. "I need to find this alicorn." He says to himself and scans the streets as if expecting an alicorn to just pop out of the framework.

The name of his sister got his attention. He turned towards the sound and saw two a pony - wait, an alicorn! - looking through a book. This had to be the same one that his sister had mentioned in her note. But how does a pony approach royalty. Did he need to ask for permission first. Scrabble noticed there was another pony with the alicorn. Maybe she was  his advisor or something like that. Scrabble noticed that her hair was partially red, just like his. He couldn't help but feel a little butterfly or two approaching the pretty mare.
"Miss? I couldn't help but notice your master mention the name of a pony I know. May I have an audience with his lordship?"

Lordship? Oh please, I'm not royalty. That is the proper way to address them though. He looks through the book some more. Ha ha, I found it. This will bring back Scribble. He says excitedly.

"G-gone?! As in, in .... " Scrabble had felt something last night. He didn't know what it was at the time, some kind of nightmare that felt more like someone had stabbed him in the heart. Scrabble immediately knew that Scribble was in trouble. Scrabble took a deep breath. He prepared himself to ask how she died. "How did-" but Scrabble caught himself. "-wait Fiance?!"

The alicorn was so chill about everything yet Scrabble's head was spinning. It was so much to take in. His sister and best friend had died by black magic, she was engaged to an ALICORN and on top of all that, the cute mare was making him feel self conscious. "Did she faint? When you proposed to her I mean."

Scrabble tried to turn himself away from the red-headed mare and addressed the alicorn. Celestia, that mare had a cute smile! "If Scribble fainted, that meant that she was truly happy and her happiness means the world to me. I know it wasn't asked for, but I give you my blessing and will happily call you my brother in law." Scrabble realized he had yet to introduce himself. "By the way, my name's Scrabble - and I'm Scribble younger brother. Growing up we were really close but things changed when Scribble started studying black magic. She was a smart mare and she wanted to know everything about everything. In our arguments, she would always win because I saw how happy studying black magic made her, but I worried it would get her in trouble someday. I tried not to worry too much because I figured that she was smart enough to know when to stop. The thing about black magic though, she told me, is that learning it is a cyclic process. There is no beginning or end. She said it was like untangling string. I think that's one reason why she liked it so much - it was a challenge." Scrabble stopped himself. He was starting lose his composure. "It's my fault. I-I should have done something. I should have seen something like this coming. Bu-but I didn't." despite Scrabble's best efforts to look strong in front of the mare, he started to cry. "It's my fault! Oh, Celestia it's all my fault. I should have known! I should have known..." Scrabble completely lost himself and broke down. He fell to the ground, heaving sobs, sucking in hair between to keep himself from crying himself completely out of breath. "...Oh Celestia..." Tears streamed down his face. He hid his face between his hooves, embarrassed, but unable to keep himself from crying.

Scrabble let himself be comforted by the cute mare. She smelled of new books and ink and her mane reminded Scrabble of strawberries. The hugged worked and Scrabble felt himself be distracted by his grief with the closeness. He felt awkward that he had lost his composure, but happy in spite of himself that he had gotten a hug for it. Scrabble followed the ponies to Scribble's grave. In all reality, she hadn't been gone that long, but knowing that she had died by black magic made it seem like she had been lost in a dark void and part of Scrabble's heart died with her. But the friendly alicorn said he could bring her back. Usually an optimistic, Scrabble wanted to believe such a feat was possible. But he knew enough about black magic to know that even if something was reversible, it would never be the same again. Would Scribble come back as the same spunky, brilliant, big-hearted sister he knew? Or would she come back lifeless, like a doll animated by pieces of string and wire? Then again, it wasn't just a unicorn casting the spell, it was an alicorn. Maybe it was possible after all. Scrabble stood next to the red-headed mare and stared at the ground. His face free from tears, but his heart fluttering as it battled between hope and despair.

Albeda Ressurecta Finita.

He casts the resurrection spell which a white glow envelopes the grave, Scribble's body rises from the grave bathed in the white aura from the spell. The spell completely restores her body, personality, and memories to what they were prior to the encounter with black magic that took her life.

Scribble! He walks over and hugs her, he places the engagement ring back onto her horn.

Scribble floated in dark waters at the bottom of a cavern, in pain and alone. She had been crying out for hours, but no pony was there to respond. Scribble had just about given up hope. She was tired and was about to let herself sink under the water. But just then, she heard a faint chanting, like a rhyme and she saw tendrils of light come down from beyond the top of the cavern, swoop down like swans and lift her up out of the water. They flew her up and out of the cavern back to Equestria and back into her broken body that had been laid to rest. She felt the swans of light place her back into her body. Her bones mended themselves, her skin wrapped itself anew over her like a blanket. She continued to rise but this time she was being pushed, rather uncomfortably, through the earth like a seed that had finally sprouted and needed to push itself through the dirt and rocks to get to the sunlight. Finally, Scribble felt herself enter into the sunlight where she was instantly pressed against. She blinked her eyes open but she couldn't see very well just yet, everything was too bright. She felt something placed on her horn and then she remembered, the ring! Her eyes adjusted and her memories came flooding back to her as one last gift from the swans. Her friends were hugging her - Lynx Talon and Book Keeper! Her fiance and her best friend!
Scribble laughed.

Then she saw her brother standing at a distance.
"Scrabble? What are you doing here? Did you get my note? I hope you locked up the shop, I left my collector's edition in -"
But before she could finish, Scrabble ran to Scribble and hugged her as well. She was back, all back! Nothing had changed. She was really his sister, the exact same Scribble that he had grown up with. Scrabble felt like he had been restored now that his sister was back and the piece of his heart that had died when he felt Scribble die started to grow back. He felt like he had been given a fresh new start and, even though he still blamed himself for her death, now he could make things right.
After he had hugged his sister, he took her face in her hooves and said very sternly, "Don't you EVER study black magic again. I lost you once and I can't stand the thought of losing you again."
Scribble opened her mouth but Scrabble knew what she was going to say. They had had this argument before.
"No." Scrabble said firmly, this time confident he was doing the right thing . "No. More."
Scribble saw there was no arguing with this new Scrabble and relented.
"No more." Scribble promised.
Scrabble hugged his sister and she hugged him back.
Scribble was back from the dead and feeling better than ever.

"Who's Quick Start?" said Scrabble.
"Quick Start is a pony that went missing. We've picked up a few clues so far. He's the one I told you about in my note. The three of us are looking for him."
"Is that what you were doing when you died?" Scrabble asked bluntly even though he already knew the answer.
Scribble knew where this was heading. "Stop it. Stop telling me what I can't do. I'm not going home with you to sit around and shelve books." Scribble stood her ground. "I'm going with my friends to look for this lost pony." Knowing that it would win the argument, Scribble coyly added, "It would make me very happy if you let me go."
Scrabble couldn't top that. Scribble's happiness meant the world to him and Scribble knew it and how to use it against him. Scrabble sighed.
Scribble added, "I know you worried about my safety but think about it. I'm with an ALICORN who loves me. I know Lynx will do whatever he can to protect me. Book Keeper too. I couldn't be in safer hooves!"
"What am I supposed to do?" said Scrabble, frustrated.
"Come with us!" said Scribble happily.
"But what about the shop?"
"Forget the shop, we were only doing that because Dad wanted us to keep it running while he and Mom traveled anyway. I know you're more the quiet type, Scrabble, and adventure scares you more than it does for me. But think about it, you'll be around to protect me, you'll make new friends, and you'll be on a worthy mission - helping find a lost pony. Think about it."
Scrabble did and Scribble was right. He wasn't the adventure type. Scrabble was the sort that would rather stay at home and count the bits in the register, organize the shelves and read a good book with a hot cup of tea than make new friends and go out into the unknown. It scared him. But then again, if he stayed he would have a better chance getting to know the cute mare. He couldn't tell if she was interested in him, but he couldn't deny that he really liked that hug.
Scribble interrupted his thoughts. "Come on, Scrabble. Take a chance. Stay with us! It would make me happier if you were with us." Scribble smiled at her brother.
Scrabble chuckled. Scribble really knew how to get him to do what she wanted.
"Okay," relented Scrabble. "If it will make you happy, I'll come along. I don't know how much help I'll be, but I want you to be happy." said Scrabble. "I'll come with you."
"Yay!" cheered Scribble and bounced up to give her younger brother a hug. "Welcome to your first adventure. This is Lynx Talon, and Book Keeper and they know the most about Quick Start. Just follow their lead and you'll be fine."
Scrabble was starting to get excited in spite of himself. "Alright, let's get started. Oh, and Book Keeper, thanks for the hug. " Scrabble smiled. "So, where do we start? The fruit stand? Sounds a bit odd, but okay. Let's do it!"

"I found a diary belonging to Quick Start in that room," Book Keeper explained, levitating a small book out of her saddlebags. "There were a bunch of other things strewn about there that might have belonged to him. And you explained just...before..." she shuddered, she couldn't say it, "how certain knowledge of those runes triggers their deadly effect. I have an eidetic memory, so if I had ever learned them, it would have consumed me. It must be a really obscure piece of dark magic for me to not recognize it."

Post by: Scribble Books on 2014 Nov 11, 13:21:00
Scribble smiled up at Lynx and placed a lingering kiss on his cheek. "I love you too." She smiled.
Scrabble's first instinct was to punch Lynx for being so friendly towards his sister. But when he saw Scribble smile, he couldn't help himself. He smiled too. He had forgotten they were engaged. There was so much he didn't know. But as long as Scribble was happy, he was happy.

Book Keeper flipped through the diary, but she didn't see anything out of the ordinary. She was about to close it when something inside the cover caught her eye. She opened to the cover and saw another odd symbol:
(http://i.imgur.com/BeiqeOn.png)

The symbol glowed, but it was very difficult to see in the sunlight. She felt an sense of reassurance when she looked at it.

"I found this." Book Keeper showed them the symbol and explained what she felt from it.

(This is very obscure, so Scribble won't have heard of it X3)

"More black magic?! Scribble get behind me!" Scrabble was frantic as he stepped forward to push the diary closed but Scribble stopped him.
"I don't think that's black magic. I've never seen that before and it made Book Keeper happy. I don't think that's black magic." said Scribble.

It was like the alicorn could read his mind. Scrabble was thinking at that moment about what it would be like at the wedding. Scrabble didn't know whether to feel threatened by the alicorn or comforted that his sister had met someone that made her happy. Maybe that was part of alicorn magic? Being able to read thoughts? Scrabble hopped not because that made him feel vulnerable and he hated that feeling. It made him feel embarrassed and unprotected. Scrabble decided that his sister's happiness meant more to him than his own insecurities. He felt insecure because he didn't know Lynx very well and to have to give up being his sister's caretaker made him nervous. Did he know Scribble as well as Scrabble did? He didn't grow up with her. Scrabble thought of himself as the better protector, but at the same time, Scrabble wasn't an alicorn. Questions continued to stream around in his mind, but eventually it all came down to one thing.
"As long as Scribble is happy, I'm happy," Scrabble replied. Scrabble wanted to call the alicorn out on letting Scribble die but he realized that was unfair because it wasn't anyone's fault but his own. "As long as you love her and promise to protect her then I have no problem passing the torch to you as my sister's new caretaker. As far as gaining a brother, I never even expected to meet an alicorn in my lifetime. I would be happy to call you my brother-in-law."

"A spy?! Where's the spy?" The new information was never ending!
"Calm down, Scrabble." said Scribble. "It's just another pony. Remember, we have an alicorn on our side. He raised me from the dead. When are you going to start trusting him? You saw what he did. It's okay. We're all okay."

Using the telepathy opened a door to your mind. She quickly seized the opportunity and created a connection and is constantly feeding off your love for scribble. In doing so you will slowly and slowly... not care for her. You will now get headaches.

Scribble cantered over to Lynx and closed her eyes as she came nose to nose with her love. She breathed in his light musky scent and pushed her nose over his cheek. Their horns touched sending sparks and waves of magical energy out across Manehattan. Scribble felt her heart fill with love as she stood so close to Lynx. She could feel the magic prickle her fur as Lynx and Scribble started to levitate, their hair floating as if they were suspended in water.
"I love you Lynx Talon." whispered Scribble.
The statement send a shock wave like a sudden rush of wind sending every changeling flying. The blast strengthened and started to pulse with the lover's beating hearts. Even Chrysalis couldn't keep a foothold against the strength of magical power. Soon Manehattan was cleared changelings along with their queen.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2015 Jan 19, 18:31:57
Book Keeper let out a sigh of relief as the last of the changelings cleared her vision. She had been worried when Lnyx had been attacked, but her worries were groundless; Scribble's and Lnyx's love was so strong!

"Now that this has all been settled, I think we should make our way to the fruit stand," Book Keeper said as she trotted over towards the pair. "I hope we can find some answers," she said rather nervously.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Scribble Books on 2015 Jan 20, 12:36:40

"Nice going there, sis," said Scrabble, giving Scribble a playful nudge. "But how did you do that? I couldn't help but notice that Queen Chrysalis was draining Lynx of love ... and I'm worried. If Lynx doesn't love you anymore how did you dispel the changelings - doesn't it take two? And now Lynx won't be the same around you. I'm just worried he's going to break your heart."
"I have love enough for two," Scribble said simply.
Scrabble noticed that Scribble didn't address his other concern and he realized that he had touched on a tender topic. Scribble must have been thinking the same thing because he noticed the tear before his sister quickly wiped it away. She had changed. Normally Scribble would be crying openly, but now she was hiding it and trying to stay strong. She must really be torn up inside. Thought Scrabble. Scrabble kicked himself for bringing the topic up so bluntly. He trotted closer to his sister and tried to give her a hug, but Scribble stepped out of it and walked up next to Book Keeper.
Scribble cleared her throat and asked Book Keeper, "Have you ever been in love?" Scribble tried to make it sound like a casual question but her voice cracked at the end and she couldn't hold back another tear from leaking out of the corner of her eye. Scribble wiped it away again, trying to pretend that she was perfectly fine.
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: waaaaaaah on 2015 Jan 22, 18:30:35
"L-love? Me?" Book Keeper heard the pain in Scribble's voice and noticed her trying to hide it. She mulled over the question for a bit. "I-I-" Memories rose unbidden of another time, one with her and Quick Start. So much irritation, so much joy, so much hurt. "I...I was..."

(My guy instincts must be kicking in because I'm not quite sure why Scribble is so upset :I)

As Book Keeper stammered, Scrabble wasn't going to let his sister go without a hug. He knew that hugs were the best way his sister could be comforted - more than words of sympathy or encouragement. Scrabble used his strength and pulled Scribble to him and wouldn't let her get away. Eventually, Scribble let herself be hugged and breathed deeply. It seemed like Book Keeper was having a hard time too since she couldn't complete a sentence. But Scrabble didn't know how to help Book Keeper. He wanted to hug her, but didn't know how that would be received. So he trotted up to her and hoped his words would help. He also just kind of wanted to talk to the pretty mare.
"I've never been in love before," said Scrabble, "but for what it's worth, I think being in love is one of the most powerful things a pony can experience and it's nothing to be ashamed of. It's okay if you've been in love before. Tell us about the pony." Scrabble hoped he wasn't to blunt or too forward. He could be that way sometimes and it always came back to bite him when talking with mares. They were so sensitive about certain things! Growing up with his sister definitely softened him to the female sensibilities, but there were times when he just didn't understand them.

Scribble was afraid to look into Lynx's eyes as he held her. What would she see if she did? Apathy? She wouldn't be able to bare it. But something in his voice made her look anyways and she saw genuine concern. He still loved her! She was so relieved she kissed Lynx. The world and its worries faded away. Everything was going to be okay. Scribble couldn't hold it back. She started to cry. All her pent up emotions and worries and fears came spilling out. "You're okay," said Scribble. "I was so worried that Chrysalis had drained you of love."

Scrabble was glad his sister was okay again. She was back to her old self. He looked at Book Keeper. He still needed to find out what was bothering her.

A new pony arrived on the scene. "Of course you can come with us!" said Scrabble. "The more the merrier! I'm Scrabble Books, that's Book Keeper and those two lovebirds are Scribble, my sister, and the alicorn is Lynx Talon. We're on a mission to look for a lost pony called Quick Start. Book Keeper knew him, but Quick disappeared and we're trying to find out how and why. What's your name?"

Lynx spontaneously gets a migrane so powerful a spark emits from his horn. Soon the spark emits in to a small orb of energy and seizes straight in the air. It explodes in a small, dark blast, creating a flash of dark magic. Chrysalis is still inside you. She is growing in our heart and brain, like a tumor. A little love cant fix this, no. This is major. So major you put Manehattan in danger. You need to find some sort of extremely powerful force, other than love. Love will just make it stronger. Eventually the orbs will turn into a concentrated beam of energy, capable of destroying thousands of ponies and cities. Your love for Lynx is draining extremely fast. Soon you wont just not love her, you'll hate her.

The dark magic quickly creates an orb around your party. The orb pushes you out of the castle and teleports you back to manehattan. Lynx is now an ordinary mare to you. The gem in the crown explodes. So much stuff happened all at once a beam of dark magic shoots into the and creates a dark magic forcefield around manehattan, similar to the around canterlot when the changelings attacked, except this time only evil creatures can pass. Princess cadence cant teleport in nor can any other non-evil creature. Its not that easy!

T.L. swoops down from the skies, startling a few ponies nearby which she adds to her notes.

"Equines seem easily startled by Dragons, this is in line with current findings that Equines are unused to seeing Dragons and do not seem to know much about our culture."

Taking a look round and finding it much more lively than Ponyville, she walks down the street.

A swirl of events set Book Keeper's mind swimming! First Chrysalis and her changelings, then her still feeding off of them, now back in Manehattan with a massive explosion! She felt as if an unseen force was controlling events, directing these strange occurrences without a care as to how she felt about them.

"I...I don't know...,"  she managed to gasp.

T.L. walks down the street taking the wonders of Manehatten.

"Odd how this place seems more developed and populated than Ponyville is..."

"I'm T. L. Yarr, but you can call me T. if you like."

(Quick question, does your character not have their own name? It would just save a bit of awkwardness in the rp if I had a "proper" name instead of a username to refer to your character with.  ^-^)

An orb flys up and lands by Sparking Charge. It creates a beautiful pony. She looks as if she came from the crystal empire.

You notice a strange pony walk up to you "Dark magic you say? Iv'e studied that all my life." She is dark purple and shiny, like from the crystal empire. What stands out is that her eyes are a deep red."Maybe I can help."

Sure, it is appreciated. Will you removing the dark magic restore my memories?
Title: Re: The City never sleeps... Come on Jump in!!
Post by: Redacted on 2015 Apr 02, 19:35:42
"Possibly." Her horn glows green and she scans you. "Quite powerful magic. Seems as if it came from Sombra. Who cursed you? It is needed so I can use different methods of removal."

The small dragon looks around in the shop, noticing that it contains general nicknacks, trinkets and odds and ends. She takes out her notebook and documents this.

"Equines have a shop for general trinkets and other such objects in a town called Manehatten, it seems to be alike to the same type of shop back home."

After looking about some more she exits the shop and carries on observing Ponykind, humming an old song while she does so.

"Queen Chrysalis? Makes sense. I thought it was Sombra. She always makes her magic look as if it came from someone else." Her horn grows a crimson red as she shoots a small orb of magic to your horn. A massive headache forms as you feel Testosterone rush through your veins. You regain   your liking to Scribble and the dark magic is removed. Hopefully ovO
