Turn 14: Canterlot - Home of the Harddrinkers and Shenanigans
Twilight begins to explore the Everfree Forest, against her better judgement, as she looks around for her Saddlebags...
Wandering the forest, the unicorn only can follow the Signal the spell emits as she tries to avoid Cultists and whatever else out there to kidnap her again. Running around the forest, following the light, she starts to notice something was... off, as she eventually finds her bags in a bush, and a chill in the air as if something, or someone is looking for her...
Out of fear, Twilight tries to teleport back to Ponyville Square, though the spell has failed, as if someone nearby must have used the Elder Signs' power. Trying to find the source and preping for the worse, she gets ready to fight whatever is causing her magic to fizzle... only to find a black... Filly?
The filly seems to be scared, not hostle, though as far as Twilight knows, this must be the source of the disruption. Twilight seems unnerved by the appearance of it, her emerald eyes reminding her of Nightmare Moon, though the image that appears before her doesn't seem to match what the Cult was up to. In fact, as far as she knows, the Ritual felt incomplete...
On the other hand, she is seeing the fact that the filly isn't safe in the Forest, with something telling her that she should let the Filly come along with her. Recovering her Saddlebags and having the Filly carry her, she starts to move a bit, realizing she can't teleport like this.
As she walks her way away from the forest and back to Ponyville, while trying to hurry, in case the team needs to leave. Feeling the Mana disruption leave the body though, she teleports the rest of the way back to Ponyville Square, close to the Ptolemaios without standing on top of the ship or hitting something...
With nothing else to do for now, Kasai follows Cherry Pepper, Daybreaker and Strawberry Ribbons back to the Albion, as he started to asy Daybreaker some questions, as well as keeping his distance from Cherry Pepper, discussing various things as Kasai boards the Albion, also meeting the rest of Alicia's group, while Keiram does maintance of the Albion's systems.
Alicia in the meantime starts to work on Jacob's Japanese skills, starting from their writing systems, and working with words... (Learn Other Language d100 roll: 31). Jacob seems to be focused on learning the language, though Alicia seems to wonder if he's really doing so... as she speaks the following in Japanese
"Hello, my name is Alicia Minazuki, please introduce yourself in Japanese.", using the Watashi pronoun when refering to herself in this manner. She also took the time to look at her PDA, getting a message from Manehattan about them finding a second Psychodriver and is waiting before they can have her join the Albion's crew.
Hasara, in the meantime, returns to the Ptolemaios as his crew, along with Alice, started to take apart the Genoaces, both messed up Lions and one of the two Enacts. Of the group, Sharpshooter begins to keep an eye on Applebloom, just in case she accidently breaks something and complicates things, while Meteor Dash does the same for the other Crusaders. Star Wing begines to show compentance at taking things apart, staring with the messed up Lion.
"Wooh, what's the story on this one?" Star Wing wondered, as he noticed the holes where the Telsa Drives used to be...
"I mean, yeash..." he noted, as he starts taking the units apart (Alice's d100 roll: 2, Star Wing's d100 roll: 4, Applebloom's d100 roll: 57+10, Meteor Dash's d100 roll: 10), making notes on what kind of a mess the units were in. He was lucky nothing else was blown off, but unfortinately, due to how Kasai shot them, there was no way in Tartarus he'd be able to put together a Telsa Drive out of the mess that was the blown parts. Another Observation Star Wing noticed is that the Enacts run on a diffrent drive, namely Solar Batteries that he expected are found off Beastmen units, then recalled that the change was really due to the lack of giant Towers to collect Celestia's sacred Solar Energy. Otherwise though, AM parts, Scrap Metal and MS parts are better then nothing, at least...
- Lion: 4 AM parts, 2 System Parts, 1 Nuclear Drive
- Lion: 3 AM Parts, 1 System Part, 1 Nuclear Drive
- Enact: 4 Mobile Suit Parts, 1x Solar Battery
- Genoace: 4 MS Parts, 1 Power Source
- Genoace: 3 MS Parts, 1 Power Source, 1 piece of Scrap Metal
[li]Total Scrap Metal salvaged: 3 Kilos of Scrap Metal from Systems[/li][/list]
One other observation Applebloom made: There's quite a bit of Scrap Metal to work with, though she waits for orders to know what to do with them, though she noticed the Refinery, maybe she can get somewhere for now? Otherwise, they load up the "straggers" that is the Masoukishin and the Alt Eisen. Despite this, Alice tries to work on the Huckebein mk I, though without PT Parts, she is going nowhere fast. Hasara himself also takes the time to find an Armory with some Iron Boarding Pikes, and several Pistols, though they appear to be more like Hand Cannons, recalling the fact that Celestial Being used these to blow holes in the heaviest of Armor... but hey, a bit of elbow grease in between and they'll be good as new... just keep them away from Filly hands I guess.
Trixie drops by to pick up her Chemical Sprayer and her Wagon as she has enough of Ponyville for now. She sets out alongside Marcus and Kenji to who-knows-where, though she hands Meteor Dash (the closest Pony at the time) 4,000 Bits to get started. As she left the ship, she seems surprized that Twilight appeared from out of nowhere. Avoiding a magical confrontation and another humilating defeat, she avoids the purple unicorn's glare while the black filly seems to close her eyes.
As far as the Ptolemaios is concerned though, everyone is accounted for, as Rarity makes her way back to the ship, with the Albion also ready to set out for Canterlot, with a mysterious crewpony within the Ptolemaios...
Hasara gives the signal to Seasong to set out for Canterlot, giving himself time to move to the Northern Outskirts to give the Albion a bit of a head-start as well. Seasong on the other end confirms that everyone is inside the ship, with Kasai sleeping on the Albion temporary.
With the time for the Ptolemaios to catch up with the Albion, due to it being in the South while the Pegasus Class is to the North, the small fleet begins to move to Canterlot, which was a relatively short distance from Ponyville. The two ships took to skies, keeping their weapons in case someone tries to appraoch the ship. However the seemly strong precense served as a Deterrent for Bandits and other threats as far as anyone knows...
Otherwise, both ships are docked at Canterlot without any major incident, docking themselves in diffrent hangars... outside of Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Rarity screaming their mouths off over Spike's little stunt of recruiting Fillies really but one never noticed as Rarity is the first person off the Ptolemaios, while Sharpshooter takes the time to also leave the ship to get away from "angry older Sisters", while Alice, and Meteor Wing find the Ptolmy's generator and start fixing it...
On the Albion, Daybreaker is the first to leave the ship, as she tries to look for any other units and ships to work with in the meantime, though she noticed a few ships from the Order...
With research going on while developing a prototype, the Drone construction team takes an Airmaster Burst to attempt a rudamental attempt at minimizing it, while the other teams begin to work on arming the Haro drones (d100: 32). One of the teams managed to develop a Haro-scaled Machine Gun Arms (developed from the information on the Zedas' guns), as a start, compiling the Blueprints for them, as a starting point of the Drones. While it's not enough to make a full-production "Combat Haro" (they send a message to Desura if he has a better name for this particular Drone, but it's a prelimary name, what does anyone know?).
At the Fa Bose' Biological lab, the Genesist has preped the ATF-2 formula as Primrose took a nice look at the simulations on the Fa Bose's computer, as well as what E.R.I.K.A. thinks is the best place for injecting it. With the information, Primrose takes the time to lie down, as Cloud Splicer ordered her to stand still as he preps to perform the proceedure. One of the Vagan Crewmen were also ordered to put Primrose to sleep temporary, using a sleeping Potion he brought as a "sleep aid" to help her go to Dreamland...
Whatever happened in her mind between the periods where Primrose is Asleep, and her getting the ATF-2 thing injected in her, no one will ever know...
In Canterlot, Desura begins to recruit Zoid pilots for whatever he needs, though when he got a responce of someone interested, he was in for a bit of a surprize: As far as he could remember, Canterlot was ment to be a place as the Unicorn's capital city. However, it seems that the reports on Equestria are out of date, as he noticed something felt... off, as he finds out he's recruited several Humans consisting of a squadron of Zoid pilots (using the aerial Zoids known as Bio Pteras, which he recalls were a kind of Bio Zoid ment as an Air Superiorty unit for the Digald Empire years ago), as well as a team of Zoids which is called a "BLOX Team" of sorts (though his mind is busy paying the new pilots to worry about fancy terms like what a BLOX Team is), as he gives all 13 the location of the Fa Bose to load up their respected Zoids. Another oddity is that the Squadron leader (named William Yorick, a Gravedigger-turned-Zoid Pilot) of the Bio Ptera team is a Spellcaster, an abnormality considering he once thought Humans were incapable of casting magic. The Griffon's BLOX Team also had two Abnormalities, the pilot of the Leoblaze (Finn Edwards, Bootlegger of Equestria's contraband and one of Yorick's few companions) is a Blood Mage, while the Buster Falcon's pilot (Miyuki Kazari, Swordsage) uses Blade Magic. Something tells Desura he'll have to get every Vagan crewmember together to relecture them on the fact that Humans have Magical potential...
In the meantime, Wesker and a Human from his crew started to list out shopping stuff for the Fa Bose, espcially supplies, while Melody also buys some Alchemical stuff to make more potions, and Sunny Daze ends up stuck carrying some of the excess stuff the others are unable to carry. The total costs of all these Moveable Frames as well as Ritual Materials for Five... Crossroad Demons? Wesker puts a reminder in his head to ask Welkin on this, being WAY out of his field for this, as he pays up a total of 5,200,000 Bits for all of these Hex Bags, Ritual Materials and other silly stuff.
At the Fa Zard, while the Changelings are at work cleaning the docks, who got a message from Desura saying the Fa Zard team should change roles, especially since the Dorados were not exactly the best units. Sunny Daze and Starsong were amused at this, while Toola-Roola told a Changeling to move a Gravity Hammer off her personal Dorado first, to see if they can't make it foldable, if not more concealable. One of the Changelings asked Toola-Roola how she's able to Sneak up on foes when someone can clearly see her Hammer, though she's not willing to tell... well, otherwise, the Fa Bose is working on Airmasters to replace the Dorados and Zedas units, due to the lack of X-Rounder humans on the Fa Zard, and the fact Changelings lack potential to pilot anything Vagan to the full extent. It'll take awhile to get the Airmasters going, but hey, at least Brady's team is going to have something diffrent... I guess...
In the meantime, Welkin takes the time to examine Brady's hand about the Elder Sign... "Hey Brady, now that I think about it, you know how you got the Elder Sign on your hand? I mean, I understand carving them onto wood and such but on Flesh? What kind of insane Mage would even think of this... hold still would ya?" Welkin spoke as he tries to examine it, though it seems to be a challenge when said Sign is on a living Human being.
Emily suits up in her Low-cut dress as she takes the Manufactured pilot with you to the Star Wing Bar, where they can enjoy the Canterlot life, though in reality most of the trouble Emily has is your tendency to get into fights, not just Melissa making a fool of herself when drunk.
Anyhow, it's just you, your fellow Humans and Canterlot as Emily escorts you and Melissa to the bar she points out, being one of the few places which the team hasn't been barred from, though the Star Wing is located in the high class district, as the three of you enter the place.
Inside the Tavern, the place seems to be a bit crazy (well crazier then usual these days, when Emily spots Ein and Neil getting into their usual Beer and Pretzles shenanigans) though Melissa looks over the shoulders of a grey Earth Pony...
"Here it comes Octavia! The end of your Kingdom, as I launch this 100-Megaton Nuke your way!" Neil spoke out as he rolls two d10s... and gets a 99... "Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Throne, Let Equesteria Burn!" he yelled as he realized the result...
"Ah shut up Kyras, you took out an entire Solar System trying to get rid of Octavia again." Ein noted, realizing what a Triple Yield ment for a 100-Megaton Nuke lead to as he gathered up the cards. "Hey Melissa, up for a game of Nuclear War?"
Melissa seems a bit worried "Nuclear War, after what Neil did to kill Octavia? I'm doubting this says Melissa with a doubtful smile... but if you think this'll kill time before our deployment or call, then I'm willing to do so... says Meilssa as she sits down..." saying so, sitting next to Octavia and a Pony she does not recognize...
"Oh goodie, another victim for the Ruinious Powers..." an Earth Pony spoke as she spun her eyes...
"Now come on, Melissa won't be that willing to fall to Chaos, Minty" Emily responded "But if you want a piece of me, so be it..." she spoke as she sits down...
Melissa then looks at you with puppy dog eyes, as if she wants you to join in on the fun...
