"Get. Off!" The purple pony was much less amused as she had ended up as the primary cushion for the new arrival. Getting hooves under one side she rolled Summer off and stood properly. Rough Cut shook herself, rolled one shoulder then the other and finally looked back at Noblesse. Her nose was now slightly crusted with blood, a tiny leak still flowing from the nostril, the fact of this occurred to her as she licked at the discomfort and was greeted by the tasted of copper. From where she stood she noticed a red splotch on Noblesse, it reminded her that the pony had sucker punched her and that he had earned retribution. The fact that the splotch was on his body and that they were no longer entangled reminded her that he was a skilled close quarters combatant. All this taken together gave the mare a good idea, well something resembling a good idea on how to pay the buck back. She slowly walked up to him, ignoring the newcomer's question for the moment. When she was close enough to reach out and almost touch him, she stopped, sniffed pointedly and held out her hoof, "We'll call it a draw." If by some obtuse miracle Noblesse griped her hoof in return, she quickly pulled him in for a headbutt, then released him completely. Edited by Lorventus, Sep 9 2012, 05:22 PM.

One of the earth ponies from the crowd, a rather aged looking farmer, stepped out to speak. “We’ve been trapped here. In Mane-Ji. They need us to keep them here fields alive, what with the eternal night ‘n all.” He sounded very honest, also baring the trademark country accent. He quickly blended back into the crowd after he had spoken. “Huh. I didn’t see that one coming.” Summer really didn’t seem all too bothered that she had pretty much just been kidnapped and thrown into a field, despite the unikirins being the real victims here, and proceeded to trot casually over to the stallion whom she remembered crashing on top of. “Oh and uhm, sorry about falling on you. I can’t really fly though, if you didn’t notice, so there wasn’t much I could do.” The blue-maned earth pony grinned happily at Noblesse, having no idea that she had technically landed on Rough Cut. |

Legacy's eyes flitted open at all the noise, wondering if Noblesse was going to initiate his plan any time soon. Perhaps waiting for Hex Mark to come back? That was a possibility. She wanted to see it when it happened. She doubted that she would be able to escape with them, but it was worth a shot. And it'd be… No it wouldn't be funny to see them fail. It would be terrible and spirit crushing. Not that she had any spirit to crush. |

((Hm.... should we do a time skip?)) With a smirk Noblesse DOES accept the offered hoof, however in a bout of circumstantial simultaneity he goes in for a headbutt at the same time as Rough Cut likely giving both a sizable goose egg on their foreheads. "Ahem, right, now that the show for the guards is over," He says while staggering only slightly from the blow, "My name is Noblesse Oblige, I am the guildmaster of the Guild of Archives and Records. Since we're in no immediate danger, I'm going to wait and see how things lie before I make any moves. You're free to try your own escape plan, but I suggest seeing to it that your group is fed and as comfortable as they can be in this situation. We should divide up into small groups to get the guard to think us disorganized and weak." With that, he leads his group of NPCs away a bit, and settles down to apparently sleep, but out of his slit eyes, he keeps an eye on the guards scattered around the field. |

She hadn't expected that at all, however, in bracing for her headbutt, she braced for his as well. She was ready to deal with the dizziness, deal with the moderate pain and pass it off as nothing with a smile and a dismissive wave. Instead she rubbed her head and stared at him, "Well played." She commented grudgingly. Now however he was suggesting Rough Cut's least favorite activity, waiting. Worse he was going to take a nap, or so it seemed, she caught the slight but obviously intentional movement of the prone pony's eyes behind his lids. Silently she commended him for his cunning, outwardly she continued to frown, turning on the only other pony that might still acknowledge her existence. No, not Legacy, Rough Cut was sure the depressed mare wouldn't talk to her, not after the implied sexy times thing. Yeah that was a great idea. Good job! She chastised herself and instead turned to the new mare, "Why'd you apologize to Nobels, you landed on me ya know?" |

“Huh?” Summer looked at the purple mare confusedly, before realizing it was indeed that pony that she had landed on. The blue-maned pony studied her carefully before replying: “Yeah, but you’re more cushion-y. It probably didn’t hurt you as much.” She grinned widely and looked around some more, tapping her hooves slightly to an unknown tune. The fields didn’t exactly have much to do; she knew she was going to be bored out of her mind here, so she would at least have to try maintaining some conversation with Rough Cut. “I’m Summer Joy, by the way!” |

Cushion-y?! "Are you suggesting I'm fat?" She said, not angry, but with a rather heaping helping of skepticism. She gave herself a look over, she wasn't cut like some stallions got when they bulked up, but she wouldn't consider herself soft in any traditional sense of the word. She stared at the mare for a moment longer before sighing and holding out her hoof, "It didn't hurt, I'm fine, it wasn't your fault whatever. I'm Rough Cut. Where'd they pick you up again?" |

Legacy was having a strange dream indeed. Something sparkly. Something vaguely pony-ish. Golden sparkles like her cutiemark in fact in her dream logic there was no doubt it was her cutiemark ponyfied. "Use me." It whispered softly, stroking her and easing her pains away for a moment. "Before I use you." The glitters sunk into Legacy's coat, like torture acupuncture. Then she woke up suddenly. Legacy jolted away. There was no way… How could this even be? She was a… That was a dream. But it rung true to her. And terrible. It made her want to tear the bloody frisking cutiemark off. Her cutiemark was in dramatics. And her cutiemark had been working all along. On her. ON HER. She could believe it. But… How in the bloody world was she supposed to use her cutiemark before it could use her? It was in dramatics. It would happen whether or not she meant it to. By Celestia's hoof. She was being cannibalized. That was the word for it. Her cutiemark was cannibalizing her, it was such horrible word. But true. It was quite literally passive aggressive. Passive magic that was aggressively attacking her. No matter what… Legacy knew she had to do something. Before something worse happened. You know what? Screw it. Officially screw it. She didn't care for the bloody plans. If she didn't do something she was going to get even worse off. Legacy started collecting rocks.

Summer was genuinely surprised at Rought Cut’s reaction. Huh. Normally, implying they were fat was a sure-fire way to annoy any single mare. The blue-maned pony tilted her head slightly and smiled, accepting the hoof. “Alright. Well, I was just in a race in Canterlot. One of the ponies was late so I had to get a later train, and when I got off and the train left these three magic-ky kirins come out of nowhere and just pick me up!” she ranted, sounding genuinely annoyed. “They didn’t even say anything on the way here! It was like trying to talk to a brick wall.” Before she could ask how the mare she was talking to had ended up here, she noticed a peculiar green earth pony collecting rocks from around the field. Summer watched intently for a while, forgetting about Rough Cut, before shouting over at the strangely determined mare. “Hey! Rock pony! Whats wrong?” |

"Hell, they sure are casting a wide net!" She said, "Well it's good to meet you Summer," with that said she let go of the other mare's hoof and was instantly out of things to do. She could give escaping another shot, but her Co-leader might take unkindly to such activities and getting into another fight with him was not at the top of Rough Cut's list of things to do today. However, Legacy's sudden change in activity level made the mare curious, "Good question," She muttered to herself as she followed Summer to see if the pair of them could get some answers. The purple mare stood a bit back however, conscious that she had already made Legacy rather uncomfortable as is. |

'Lots of things are wrong.' Legacy mouthed as she continued pulling rocks towards her. Arrows and bows were hard to do for an earth pony like her. And it was only recently she had found out how hard it actually was. Now that she thought about it, that was probably the reason why most of her time with Snowbird and Nocturne had been semi-alright. They hadn't been the reason. No surprise there. But she didn't have her arrows now… But the one thing. The most important thing that using a bow had taught her. Was aim. And she didn't even need a bow for this. She turned her back on the guards, on the rocks she had collected. And looked back at them. The one she was looking at, in particular, was the unikirin who had managed to bind the earth pony with telekinesis. Then she bucked one of the rocks at the unikirin, knocking him out cold… And maybe breaking a few bones. She bucked a heavy rock at one of the Servants that Noblesse had been talking about. Had they been prepared not even telekinesis would have been enough to stop that rock. Only a unicorn with a special talent in telekinesis could have stopped it. And Legacy had knocked that one out first for a reason. She'd have done the head maid. But she had no idea what the head maid looked like. Legacy glanced to Noblesse for a moment, pushing one of the rocks to him and mouthing, 'Sayuka. If you see her hit her.' She was probably mouthing the word wrong. But whatever. The stallion was more than likely to be unhappy with her. But whatever. Legacy was not going to just sit around and let her cutiemark act up again if she could do anything about it. |

((I recruited Ice to play the NPCs, hope you guys don't mind.)) 'Hm, good thing I'm not a betting man. I would have bet good money that it'd be that so-called "adventurer" that goes off and does something stupid. Oh well, I guess that old saying is true, it's always the quiet ones,' Noblesse thought inwardly while outwardly he simply dips his head in acknowledgement to Legacy before slowly rising to his roofs, slowly scooping the rock up on his back then SUDDENLY barking out, "Right, Lads and Ladies, Plan B it is. LET'S START A RIOT!" All chaos breaks out as the various NPC earth ponies prisoners start fighting the various unikirin guards. Spells, and stones, and bucking hooves fly start flying every which way as Noblesse STRONG.... well, it was less of a charge than a horizontal jump sending him hurtling at one of the guards he had earlier classified as a servant. Force equals mass times acceleration, and when a mass the size of a full grown Earth Pony is accelerating at PRETTY DAMN FAST while aiming a STRONG punch at your snout, (to establish superiority) well that's a whole lot of force. |

Summer just stood by as the fighting broke out between the gaurds and the earth ponies. Rioting was the best spectator sport. Unfortunately, since she had had her saddlebags confiscated all the way back in Ponyville, she had absolutely no popcorn! Life was usually cruel, but this was a whole new level. She had to get it back soon, for the good of all of – well, herself. After all, having popcorn on hoof was the most awesome thing in existance. The blue-maned earth pony giggled to herself as she leaped on to the top of one of the unikirins before using the confused magic user as a jumping pad, leaping over the remaining guard – the unfortunate unikirin being sent into the floor at a very high speed as well as being directly hit by a quite explosive spell meant for Summer.

Rough Cut watched as the soft spoken mare with the ridiculously depressing attitude completely owned not one but two of their captors. It was a delicious irony that the masters of magic had their heads beaten in by of all things the humble rock. Rough Grinned as well calling out, "The man in the back said everyone attack, and it turned into a ballroom blizt! HAHAH!" By the time she was done belting out the line, off key and everything, she was up with Noblesse doing her best to keep up with his effective CQC with her own brand of half mosh-pit hyjinx half serious punishing uppercuts, hay-makers and headbutts. This was a serious fight that she planned on having serious fun inside. She threw herself around with reckless abandon, making herself the biggest target, partly to attract more fun and partly to keep the enemy distracted enough that the others would be able to overrun most of the Unikirins without injury to themselves. |

Legacy still wasn't sure they were even going to make it out, and as the unikirins started moving around so as to be less of a target it was harder. But the majority of the peasants had run scared, not even knowing how to fight in the first place. Legacy launched off the rest of the rocks she gathered then proceeded to try and walk out. It wasn't like she could run. But rocks were everywhere. She doubted they were going to be that eager to try and take her. But if they did. Meh. At least she had tried. |
