Equmbia city of lies (RP- not a jump in)

[super_chris85]

why? Star stopped turning around

[FlameandIce]

A wave of strange energy passes over the ponies *magic deactivated*

Flame rushes at the guard slashing them with his keyblade knocking a few out making his way towards the entrance

A voice echoes through the museum well well what do we have here a few Tin Ponies huh to weak to fight? Heh heh your just like the rest it sounds like a old stallion the door with a moon lights up

[Dark Hooves]

// did the energy wave disable magic?

Dark Hooves is too busy with the guard to notice the wave of energy.

[The Wandering Magus]

Wanderer dropped to her hind knees and covered her face slightly as Its equine Aspect vibrated slightly with the loss of magic.  "D-don't go downstairs," said the strangely hermaphrodite voice.  "And please don't freak out if my body and voice start changing slightly.  It's taking... more concentration than usual to keep myself together in this state.  Oh, and DON'T go downstairs."

For a moment, black tentacles almost seemed to take the place of Its mouth and eyes as the Wandering Magus's True Form began to push upon Its self-imposed limits, but with a grunt and some willpower, the outward shape stabilized along with the voice.

"t-there.  I think that fixed it.  I should be stable, for now.  c-can we rest for a moment, please?"

[super_chris85]

Star rushed back to help her what was that? he asked worried about her

[The Wandering Magus]

Star rushed back to help her what was that? he asked worried about her

The mare collapsed into Star's forehooves.  "I-I'm fine, I think.. I just need to rest a bit... it was... a-antimagic... magic cancellation... nearly broke my contact... I-I.... I'm not... a normal... a normal pony, Star..."

She looked ashamed of herself, hiding her face.  "p-please don't be mad with me..."

[super_chris85]

you really think I'm mad at you because you hid something like this from others Star looked at Wanderer I don't care about you dark secrets you are still my friend no matter what

[The Wandering Magus]

you really think I'm mad at you because you hid something like this from others Star looked at Wanderer I don't care about you dark secrets you are still my friend no matter what

The Wanderer blushed and smiled.  "t-thanks, really.  That means a lot to me."

She stood up shakily, hearing the commotion downstairs.  "I... I can't do much of anything now, I mean, despite having used Familiarity earlier... I'm using a lot of concentration to stay on this plane, and in this shape.  But I do know this: the tin ponies in this museum are automaton killing machines.  We can't go near them without magic or some sort of weapon... and I REALLY don't want to start fighting in this state."

[FlameandIce]

Flame manages to make it to the front entrance and enters


it's better to continue then to give up now I haven't had much time to test you to see if you are a tin pony or a soldier

[super_chris85]

well you stay up here I'll go down and help Star nodded walking over and looking down at the entrance wish me luck he said waving and jumping down

[The Wandering Magus]

well you stay up here I'll go down and help Star nodded walking over and looking down at the entrance wish me luck he said waving and jumping down

The Wanderer winced, but nodded.  "Try not to let yourself be seen!  ...you'll need all the luck you can get..."

[FlameandIce]

Flame sits down next to the entrance the filly next to him waiting for Dark Hooves

[Dark Hooves]

Dark Hooves manages to knock out the guard and rushes to catch up to Flame.

[super_chris85]

Star landed on the ground keeping to behind any objects he could find as he made his way to Flame

[FlameandIce]

As Darkhooves gets in Flame pushes a rather large statue of Nightmare Moon against the door blocking it

[The Wandering Magus]

The Wanderer crawled painfully to her hooves, stumbling to a secluded part of the balcony based on her previous uses of Familiarity, still somewhat fresh in her mind.  With Star gone, she/he/It allowed Itself a moment of respite, becoming a pulsating mass of indescribable colors as It used Its inequine nature to hear, smell, taste and otherwise sense things a normal equine body would be unable to sense.  While no substitute for magic, physical senses were close enough to allow It to make out the general spread of guards and hostile forces in the vicinity.

With a sound that could perhaps be described by the highly imaginative (or highly insane) as a mix between a grunt and a sigh, the shimmering, pulsating mass re-formed itself into its original equine shape, again clutching her hooves to her temples in slight pain.  It was rather difficult to keep up this act of ponyality without the aid of the supernatural, considering that this was only the delicate tip of one of Its many, many limbs stretching through all of the infinite worlds of the Tree, but somehow she managed despite the pain.

DH: I had no idea you possessed such strength Flame.

[super_chris85]

Star had made it to the lobby with Flame and DH hey are you two alright?

[Dark Hooves]

DH: Oh hey Star, yeah I'm just fine. How many made it here do you think?

[FlameandIce]

none as far as I am aware when did you get here and where are the others? Flame asks
