'How do you know me?' Legacy mouthed in question, really baffled. Her memory wasn't the best. Even more so considering that she didn't write in her diary any more. Not since that one day… She hadn't written in it ever again since that day. It was just dusty and alone. 'We are helping the crops a little.' Legacy mouthed. Their presence here wasn't a complete loss. She really didn't think that they were here for a different reason. Their thing sounded plausible to her. They needed crops, and the earth ponies were at least doing something to help, even if it was no miracle by any means.

Rough diverted her attention to Legacy as she tried to 'talk'. The purple mare waited until Legacy seemed good and done talking before she responded. A devious smile crossed her face briefly, replaced by a look of false hurt, "You don't remember?! But we spent the whole night together not a week ago!" With an exasperated sigh she continued, "You said we'd be together forever and then when morning light broke I was cold and alone in bed." The scarred mare put one hoof over her eyes and sniffled, dredging up tears from whole cloth.

Behind her hoof she pondered the ethics of this, of how bad it would look for her to be pulling this on the mare. Also she hoped that the mare had bad memory or else the whole ruse was out the window and in a snow drift! Ahh well, either way she was having fun and in their current situation, smiles would be more valuable than gold.

Hex Mark

Trying to interpret what Legacy was 'saying', Hex Mark could only come up with ridiculous meanings to the mouth movements, and eventually he gave up and sighed softly. However, he looked at Rough Cut when she began to cry and listened to the reasoning. So wait, Rough Cut and Legacy were..what was the word for two ponies who shared whole nights together? "I didn't know you two were best friends." Hex stated, now feeling strange about being there to begin with, getting in between these two.

"If you need me to, I'll leave you alone." he added with a nervous chuckle.

That didn't sound like her. Even if she had gotten shit faced last week… She wouldn't have spent the night with any pony. Not even drunk. She was scared of clop. Really. Even the touching idea was scary to her. Legacy's ears flattened, clearly not amused. Even the idea was frightening. What the hay? Was this gal seriously crying? 'Not me.' Legacy mouthed. 'And don't go! She's creepy!' She said to Hex Mark, really not wanting to be alone with the weird mare. It was really weird that she was all saying those things. Legacy would never do those things.

One of them bought it, except he didn't understand. Rough Cut stilled a full throated laugh from behind her hoof, she uncovered her eyes enough for the watery orbs to observe her 'mark's response. She tried to read the response and found; denial. Short and sweet.

The purple mare held back a grin as she sauntered alluringly close to Legacy. As she did, she responded in her own way to Hex, "Please, clearly we need to get reacquainted, I'm sure she'll remember me once we have a little alone time." She was making very obvious eyes at Legacy, but her mouth wasn't selling it, she was barely holding together the ruse, any moment she'd break into a fit...

Hex Mark

About to turn away, Hex Mark only stopped when he noticed the panicked look on Legacy's face. That alone made him stay, as he was now conflicted between what to do. Should he leave them alone and believe Rough Cut, or should he stay with them and potentially interrupt a tender moment. However, he blinked when he noted a sort of strain in Rough's words, her mouth betraying the story and he sighed. "Alright, I call shenanigans." the grey stallion stated, looking at Rough Cut with a less than amused look. "Now isn't the time to joke anyway- for all we know they could be planning to use us for some sort of ritual sacrifice." he added, trying to bring back the potential danger of the situation.

Unfortunately for Rough Cut, those obvious eyes only made the situation worse, making Legacy break out into a full out gallop in running away. But… Seeing as the flesh around her neck had swollen… She hadn't been able to run very far very fast before coming to a halt with a silent wheezing sound. Legacy wasn't uttering a single sound, but it was clear that if she could, she'd be wheezing. First the creepy mare, now this ritual sacrificing. She didn't want to be dead again. That first time had been terrible. (Also, she hadn't died, but Legacy had no way of knowing that.)

Rough Cut's expression drops quickly, she backs away a few steps even as the unfortunate target of her teasing had fled, the male had seen through it and everything was going right to Tartarus in a nice set of saddlebags! This was supposed to be funny, lighten the mood some, now it was just turning into a disaster, "I'm sorry!" She blurts out, "Stop thinking up bad things, even if it was nopony's getting sacrificed with me around! I'd sooner turn their faces to paste!" Staring now at Hex Mark, she stomps hard and changes over to a glare.

After a moment her eyes flicker over to the wheezing pained form of Legacy, at which she dropped the self important glare and grimaced painfully. Now was the time to act and find out what was wrong and do something stupid but not mean. Quickly the purple mare ran over to Legacy, a friendly, just friends look on her face, "I'm sorry, We didn't do anything, it was supposed to be a joke, ya know?" She changed her voice a bit, "You're dumb, I never did anything with you!" At that she mimes getting pushed over, returning to her normal voice, "Yeah you're right! I just found your name in a register after you disappeared, figured ... maybe I'd run into you while looking for the other ponies that went missing..." With that, a sequence that seemingly ignored Legacy's current state of affairs, she gave the mare a sheepish smile and repeated her apology, "I'm sorry."

Hex Mark

"Hey! I wasn't saying that was the case!" Hex defended his statement, sighing softly. "I'm sorry I scared either of you: I was only trying to bring us back to the matter at hand- it's clear something is wrong with this picture, and we don't know if it is good or bad." he added before he noted an odd look he received from some of the kirin. He quickly averted his eyes, adjusting his glasses as he looked back at Rough Cut. "I understand what you were trying to do, and I appreciate that. But still...we can't just stand around here anymore.." he trailed off, taking quick glances around, trying to note the situation. Strangely, there weren't alot of kirin compared to the ponies. It was a surprise to him that none of the other ponies had thought of running- save for Legacy as he could tell she was physically incapable.

"We completely outnumber them..it's not like they can take on all of us if we did fight our way out of this.." he stated, a little more to himself as he wondered- how exactly would they get out of this.

Legacy tucked her tail between her legs, terror stricken as the mare hovered over her. Legacy's eyes glazed over as she flashed between reality and flashback, struggling to remain in the, while scary, far less terrifying reality. It was hard though. There were words of comfort, but the adrenaline was still surging through her. She was scared. Legacy curled up, not even noticing as she started to cry. She knew that Rough Cut hadn't done anything to her… But this was overwhelming. Everything, the suggestion. The ritual. Being unable to run away. Terrifying. She felt so weak. She was so weak. 'What chance do we stand against those unicorns anyhow?' She mouthed.

Earth ponies didn't have magic. They were weak, she was weak.

The adventurer rubbed her chin, after backing a few steps away, she was getting the message that she was accidently being successful at her normal "Grr I'm big and intimidain' because I'm big" thing. She thought some then smiled, "Well if I said outloud then they'd know what to do! Suffice it to say, unicorn powers were on the list of things I figured into everything." Of course, most of what she figured in, was in her gear. There was no need to say that much now though! "Look, I'm really sorry about the whole coming onto you thing, really. I thought you'd brush me aside! It's not like a lovely mare like yourself would be interested in me anyway. I'm far too err... Rough around the edges." She snerked quietly, her name led to so many bad puns it was hard not to laugh.

Hex Mark

Smiling a little as Rough Cut had attempted to console Legacy, Hex Mark thought for a moment. Sure, the kirin unicorns had magic on their side, but that did not deter him. However, he did catch onto the bad pun that the mare made while apologizing, letting out a slight chuckle. "Alright, while you two cut each-other some slack, I'll see if I can get any of the other ponies to help." he stated, walking off to see if he could find another pony who was willing to help. However, he stopped once two of the kirin had cut him off.

"Please..come with us." the first of the two kirin requested, but before Hex could reply, the unicorn kirin had used her magic to create a sort of collar around his neck and around his torso, proving it was a rhetorical question. "Wait- what's happening?" Hex asked, but went unanswered as the two kirin 'lead' him (that is to say, walked with the magic bindings being used to pull him along) away from the rest of the group. "Guys? Guys?!" he asked, struggling a bit as he tried to break free, but it was all in vain as he looked back at Legacy and Rough Cut. Although he wasn't kicking and screaming, it was obvious he was afraid as he was being dragged off.

Legacy was far from amused, still struggling between reality and her flashbacks. A few jokes was far from enough to get her out of that. Even more so as she saw Hex Mark being led away. Yet another case where the unicorns were stronger than earth ponies. Even if she had her bow she wouldn't stand a chance. It was hopeless. 'We can't do anything.' Legacy mouthed. Once upon a time she might have tried to help out the stallion. But she was tired and broken. Legacy couldn't do anything, she was just an earth pony. She had neither the magic of a unicorn nor the speed and lightening of a pegasus.

Yes, she thought Rough Cut was lying. Really. What could earth ponies do against unicorns? Nothing.

Rough was trying to make consoling happy faces at Legacy, anything to get the mare to stop crying and buck up, that is until the Kirin decided to take a member of the group. Once again she hit mood whiplash and was angry and moving. She didn't even have the mental time to think as they strapped him with magic and started dragging, perhaps one of the worse ideas was right and this was when it would happen. The Adventurous mare wouldn't have any of that. She charged the door, each hoof landing heavily on the ground, informing all who weren't already aware that she was no lean machine, she was a heavy hitter.

She jinked around Hex and dove at the nearest glowing horned bastard, her hooves extended as if she had claws to impale her target upon. "NO WAY!" She screamed as she dove, because there was no way she'd let one of them go quietly.

Hex Mark

What the two kirin did not expect was Rough Cut's sudden outburst, which was responsible for catching the kirin who kept Hex's neck bound breaking the spell and attempting to defend itself. However- he didn't have enough time before he was knocked over by the mare. However, a third Kirin had stepped in to assist her compatriots, her horn glowing as she prepared to apprehend Rough Cut, the kirin who had the magic binding around the grey stallion's torso broke his spell and went to gang up on Rough Cut. Hex Mark only watched, more in shock than anything else but his reason for not trying to escape now was running in his mind: Rough Cut was causing more trouble on his account than it was worth. The two Kirin who were not pinned down had already used their magic to grab Rough Cut, pulling her off of the grounded kirin and restraining her.

"Hold it!" he shouted, surprising both of the kirin who had been restraining Rough Cut, along with the one who was standing up. "I was the one you three wanted, correct?" he asked, walking over to be inbetween Rough Cut and the kirin trio. "I'll go along quietly, but at least grant me this: Promise you will not harm neither Legacy nor Rough Cut.." he stated calmly, soon looking back at the mare. "I appreciate your intent, but you'd have caused far more trouble than I am worth." he justified his decision as the kirin let Rough Cut go, as Hex followed them.
