Checkmate paid for the three tickets to Ponyville, then saw the mare and sighed, exhausted but still trying to be a helpful pony.  Excuse me, ma'am.  Is anything wrong?

Heh.  That explains a lot.  Checkmate mumbled, visibly struggling with Farsight.  Not that he would ask for help, this was his burden, since he failed to protect him.

Checkmate was unable to see the marks, but he needed to talk about his feeling.  What does it feel like? When you fail?

((BACK!!))

It's fine.  You had every right to know.

Hmm?  Yes, I am.  One of the royal guards.

((brb, sorry.))

Checkmate kept walking, something obviously on his mind: his own internal battle.  He had never lost his temper like that before, and he couldn't believe he had snapped.

Checkmate...I'm Checkmate...wish we could have met under...better circumstances.  Checkmate said, walking as fast as he could.

Checkmate magically picked up Farsight, setting him on his back.  After taking a second to steady himself, he nodded.  Let's go, Ms...?

Checkmate slowly managed to stand back up, swearing under his breath, before he turned to Aqua weakly.  Would you like any help getting him home?

((Take two!))

Checkmate collapsed onto his stomach, breathing deeply.  He had never felt anything like that before.

((Oh, okay!!))

At the slap, Checkmate snapped, magically levitating more tiles and launching them towards the alicorn.

Then....I suppose...I'm worthless here...  Checkmate said, his temper cooling.  Inside, he was tearing himself apart.  He had NEVER let an ally down, and now, he had no other option.

Checkmate glared angrily at the alicorn.  Although certainly ticked off, he knew this was a losing battle.  What of his wife? His family?!

Checkmate glared at the alicorn.  Tell me, does it have to be him?  Can another be willing to sacrifice himself so that they may live peacefully?

Checkmate glared at the alicorn, standing up.  What did you do to him?!

Checkmate watched warily, worried about what may happen.

Checkmate thought quickly.  What if another were to take it?

Checkmate instinctively bowed, seeing the alicorn without being fully aware of who she was, just that she was important.

Checkmate stepped out of the shadows.  I would assume one of these mares is your wife.  If you take her home to safety, I'll make sure the others can return home.
