Canterlot / Suit up!
« Last post by Sorrows End on May 19, 2015, 04:05:51 pm »
Spring and Golden made their way through the now much more busier market square. Many sorries, and apologies were given, as they pushed through the crowd. "This place got crowded quickly... How far is this smith were going to see?"

"Not far! Sorry... Just off the main street and- My bad... And to the left, i think... I didn't see you there..." Golden wasn't as vocal with her apologies. She simply didn't want to address every single pony she bumped into. Once they got off the main street, the trek became much easier.

After good ten minutes of walking, they were finally closing in to their destination. "Just behind here- Umfph!" Spring ran into an older looking stallion, as she turned the final corner. "I'm sorry sir! Are you okay?" Spring hurried to help the older pony up, but before she could even try to offer a hoof, the pony was on his hooves already. "No thanks young one... I'm fine..." Without any further words, the old pony continued on his way.

"Surprisingly fit for such an old pony..." Golden commented. "He looked 40 years older than he probably was..." To Golden's glee, they arrived to the forge few steps later. Spring stepped up to the door, and gave it a firm, three knocks. Golden raised her eyebrow, then walked over to the door, pushing it open and entering the forge "It's a store Spring... You don't need to knock here..."

"Hmph... I just wanted to be polite..." Spring crunched her nose, before following Golden inside. The bell above the door chimed a jingle, but there was nopony to be seen behind the counter. "See? We should have knocked and waited. Maybe the owner isn't here?"

"You really think they would leave the door open, if they were to leave their forge?" Golden asked with a raised eyebrow. "Now stop worrying and wait..."

"The pendant will be taken care off, my Queen." Crimson waited, not wating to watch into the alien book, as it's pages were flipped. The stallion leaned over, when the codexx was turned to the right page, showing a faint, moving picture of the mare they were supposed to go and get. Crimson nodded "It will be done, my Queen. I will arrange a holding quarters for the smith."

Crimson took the orders meant for him, and bowed his head. "I will retrieve the mirror, once it's safe, with the help of the court, if it's necessary."

Crimson stood up, once he was dismissed, but he waited for Dream to walk out, before closing his eyes, and starting to chant a hymn with a low, slow and quiet tone.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Crimson woke up. He lifted himself up from the bed, and remained seated on the side of the bed for a while. He repeated Dream's orders few times to himself, before jumping down, and leaving the room. Crimson walked through the mazy cave, and arrived to a room with four, bed like structures, almost like pipes. Each pipe held a comatosed pony inside them. With his magic, Crimson forced two of the pipes open, revealing two of the ponies, who once the pipe was opened, began to wake up. The other pony's eyes were covered by a helmet, but the other one's eyes were well visible, and they suddenly opened. The ponies rose up from the tubes, almost in unison, before stepping out. They flexed their bodies, the long rest having numbed them. They walked towards, and stopped in front of Crimson. The red stallion didn't hesitate. He gave the ponies a fragment of an pendant, both ponies storing them somewhere on their clothes and armor. Crimson flared up his horn, giving the ponies their orders through an illusion. "Your Queen has spoken. Retrieve this smith, and bring her here awake. Do your best to stay out of sight, but use of force is authorized, come a situation you need it. Now go!"

The two ponies give Crimson a nod, before they pick up their weapons from the table and a weapon rack. Their movement and motions were uncanny for a pony who just woke up from a long, long sleep. Once equipped, without saying a word, the ponies leave the room, the cave, and head towards their first target. Crimson watched the two depart, their silence making him feel a little uneasy. He had no time to delve on that, however. Crimson left the cave himself, and headed towards Canterlot.

"Excellent... The ponies are ready, as well... Have you split the pendant?" Dream spoke in a calm, controlled manner, her tone carrying a kind, and gentle tone. "Do it, and give them all a piece. Keep one yourself, and leave the rest near the pedestal."

Dream flipped open the red codex, flipping through it's pages, before stopping on one specific page. "Wake the Knight, and the Doctor. I have a task for them... We are going to need a smith, if we want to succeed. I have found a fitting candidate from the city of "Manehattan". Order them to go, and get her here." Dream flipped through more pages. The text written on the book was alien, only Dream is able to read it normally "You, Crimson. You need to go to the old castle of the sisters. You need to acquire the mirror, that i gazed on all those years ago. But, don't walk those grounds yet. There has recently been more activity there. We don't need ponies to know anything about us yet."

"You are dismissed. You know your orders. I will summon you here again." Dream got up, the codex and the table vanishing in thin air, as the mare left the stallion's dream through the same door she first came in from.

A red stallion was casting illusion spells on a mouth leading to a cave. He wanted to be extra sure, it would not be found, while he's vulnerable. The cave system was rather big, it's many tunnels leading to different small chambers, each filled with various objects, from dishes and random furniture, to books, tomes and runes. It was clear that somepony had lived there for a good while.

The mouth of the cave was always disguised by a powerful illusion, strong enough to actually cause a collision to a pony if they would try to pass it. The red stallion panted, as he pushed himself to the limit to hide his hiding place as well as he could. He was sweatting, but not from the labour brought upon his mind, but from what was gonna follow. He was gonna send his mind to an adventure. He walked deeper into the cave, until he came to a room with a singular bed in the middle. He downed a potion, laid down on the bed, and closed his eyes. Soon, he was fast asleep, his mind leaving his body, to visit his master.

At first, it was dark. Very dark. Crimson kept his eyes closed, as he was instructed to do. His form jumped a little, when a door opened somewhere behind him, and was closed moments later. A burst of magic could be heard, as the mare he came to see brought out her book, and greeted him. "My queen..." Crimson nodded his head a little "Thank you, your highness... It's my pleasure to be here..." Crimson slowly opened his eyes, and squinted them, as they were greeted by a bright light from the lamp. After his senses got used to his surroundings, despite being a dream, they felt very real. The alien smell of the room, the light hurting his eyes, even them empty void they walked on, Crimson got up from the ground, and trotted after Dream, sitting across from the mare on the table. "Everything is ready, my queen."

Dream walked down a cobblestone road. An empty road, that floated in the wast emptiness of an awake world. There wasn't many dreamers there, as most ponies were up for the day. Dream had a destination though, as she moved towards a crimson door, opened it, and walked in. The hooded pony closed the door behind her, momentarily shutting of the only source of light to the room. Dream materialized her codex next to her, as she walked towards a lonely, crimson stallion sitting in the middle of an empty room, under a lonely lamp.

"Crimson Tide... You have arrived... I welcome you to The Dream, my servant. Now come, we have some important matters to discuss" Dream materialized a table to the room, the lonely lamp moving above it. She set down her book, and waited for Crimson.

Golden stared at the paper Spring gave her first. She read it through again, before putting it into her own saddlebag. "My own armor? I was afraid i'd had to wear that silly garb all the Royal Guards wear." Golden walked after Spring, waving off her salute "Let's not get too formal right away..." Golden would have to inform the mining company, that she had just been re-employed. Those careerists could take her spot. She was getting quite annoyed by the constant struggle between the two parties anyway. As long as her job was to be a mechanic, she would have no problems filling these, apparently high expectations of her new "boss".

"It is real, not a lie" Spring assured. She smiled as Golden signed, finally getting her sister aboard the vanguard. "Cobalt will be transferred, after you have shown what you can do to the captain. We still need her signature to this paper." Spring took back the paper and the pen, placing them back to her pouch. "But the spot is already prepared." Spring turned around, to head to her next destination. "Captain ordered me to take you to a smith, in case i'd be able to get you to join. There you will get your own armor made for you." Spring began to hop away, the usual spring in her steps. "Oh, and Golden. "Welcome to the Vanguard" Spring did a salute, waiting for Golden to follow her.

"Of course i take it. I'd have to work ten years for that" Golden takes the form from Spring "This is real, right?" Golden was beaming at the offer, but she was still suspicious. "This is not a lie to get me to sign this?" Spring wasn't known to be a liar, but the offer just sounded too good to be true. Golden picked the pen from Spring, and signed the already filled form. "So, when is the hospital spot ready? When can i get Cobalt moved to the Royal hospital?"

"They deemed it worth it, if you can provide us the level of skill i have told them you have. Which i'm sure you do, and you have." Spring said proudly. "We can get the paper work done at once, if i was able to change your mind." Spring pulled a paper form and a pen from her pouch, holding them out for Golden
