It had been a few weeks since he had joined the royal guard, yet Solar Chaser had already managed to get better at heating up towns with his little trick. His stamina had improved greatly in the short time he had been training, and the currents he had been able to make were much stronger than when he first started. He had been flying for a little more than an hour, and now he had begun to slow down, landing softly on the ground in Appleoosa. His body released the waves of heat and steam came off of his wings as it usually did, but he was still satisfied. Based on the strength of the current, the golden pegasus could assume that it would last about three hours, give or take a few minutes. To have warmed up Ponyville and Appleoosa in the same night. I must be butter, because I'm on a roll! he thought, pumping his hoof with satisfaction. He wasn't even out of breath- things were definitely looking up. But still, he hadn't seen Diamond Dust since he joined, he was certain that he'd have been in the same group- but perhaps he was wrong. Regardless, Solar was off duty and had little reason for warming up towns except for just being helpful. |

For plot convince Princess Jasmine had had something happen to her that made her realize how to speak. Think not on it at all! She could speak now. Although not but a five days ago she couldn't, she did now. And she was wandering around with Moral compass and two NPC guards tonight. They had to sleep sometime. Meanwhile, Princess Jasmine felt her need to sleep slightly less. It was weird. But not as weird as she looked. Scary. A scary ugly spider. A monster. Not even her pet tiger Rajah would stick around. Her guards would. But meh. It just wasn't the same. |

The pegasus stretched a little as the warm breeze blew around him- warming the town as it moved around, and he looked up at the stars. He was longing for the day the sun would come back- not the light that had been supplied by Ra, but the real sun, Princess Celestia's sun. He couldn't place his hoof on why, exactly, but he always felt better about the sun when it was out rather than the fake sun. The sound of hoof steps broke his train of thought as Solar Chaser looked around. He spotted two ponies escorting...was that a giant spider? Curiosity getting the better of him, he trotted closer to get a better look. "I didn't know spiders could grow this big." he commented, a playful tone in his voice rather than one of fear. He wasn't scared of the spider, it looked docile enough. He was intrigued, how did this spider grow to the size of a pony? |

"Neither have I." Princess Jasmine sighed, probably going to shock the heck out of the stallion. She was an ugly ugly spider made even more ugly by her sheer size. Her life was terrible. She'd lost everything and everyone she ever knew and loved. A realization that had gotten her out of undead-looking and into spider-looking. Meh. Anyhow. She was fascinated by the heat rolling off him. It was nice to feel heat again. It had been ages since she had felt anything even resembling the heat of the sun. Princess Jasmine missed her home. It was just... This place now. She'd never be able to go home. |

Solar's comment would soon be answered by none other than the spider it...or herself as the case seemed to be. The pony's eyes widened in surprise and he stepped back out of reflex. "Y-You can talk?" He asked, only for his eyes to brighten up and his smile to return. "That is so cool! Talking spiders are awesome, and you sound so cute with your voice too." he stated happily, much to the astonishment of the two guards, who looked at one another as they wondered what was the deal with this pony. "Sorry- got excited there for a moment. My blood gets racing after I warm up a town like this, so I am just in a really good mood." he apologized, taking a breath to calm himself down. |

Oh please. This was just lame really. He was complimenting that she could speak now? That was just lame and over the top. He was just being lame and lying. "Come now. No need for false compliments. Its rather over the top. He was clearly faking. She was just an ugly spider. And her voice didn't sound that great. He was just flattering her for no reason. And Princess Jasmine did not appreciate it even a little. She didn't want false compliments. One time she had been beautiful. Long flowing and curly hair... But all that was gone, it would never come back. |

Taken aback by the spider's apathetic attitude, the pegasus frowned as his compliment was rebuked by the spider's claim that it was a false compliment. One of the spider's guards saw his expression and looked at the spider. 'I think he was actually being sincere about it.' the guard stated, but soon Solar had stretched. The second guard had noticed that Appleoosa was warmer than it normally was and saw the heat rolling off of Solar Chaser- putting two and two together to figure he was responsible for it. 'Excuse me, but could you explain to me how this town is warmer tonight?' the guard questioned, and the pony smiled softly. "That's because of me. I was just flying around in the same path over and over again. With that- I created a warm air current- that's the breeze you are feeling. The current itself is what is warming up Appleoosa. My guess is it'd last for about three hours before things start to cool off again." he explained. |

"Sure, whatever." Princess Jasmine said. The guard wasn't a cutiemark in telling people's true emotions. Or a changeling. Either one would have been good in telling the stallion's emotions and sincerity right now. If he was she still would have been a little doubtful. Rather, doubtful of the stallion's sanity. He probably thought of her as some exotic pet. Which was lame. "Its nice… The weather." She added gruffly, hating her voice. It wasn't delicate and feminine at all. It sucked being a spider. She was gross and scary and she ran away from herself whenever she saw a mirror. |

The pegasus retained his smile as the spider had commented on the weather, as he felt she was complimenting his work. "Hey, thanks. It took a bit of solar power, but I'm glad it's making you feel all warm and fuzzy." he replied happily, only a moment later realizing what he had just said, causing him to snicker. "Why didn't I think of those sooner?" he asked, more to himself than anything as he took out a note-pad from his side-saddle pouch and used a pencil to jot down the two puns he had made. "Sorry, I have a habit of making puns like that....but on a more serious note, what brings the three of you here? It's not every day that a giant spider is out and about." he asked. Although he was being casual, one could notice the drastic change from his joking attitude to his serious one. If a pony didn't know any better, they'd say that he was a whole different pony. |

"There is no reason. I was getting cramped inside. Wanted to go outside." Princess Jasmine said stiffly, not wanting to go really into it. She had tried to hide oat from the world. But it was lame hiding away in Deep Impact's family's house. Kinda depressing to just sit around there and do nothing. She didn't have anything to do. And they only had so many treasures. While Princess Jasmine no longer had her cutiemark, she still had the talent, and missed the addictive feel and happiness of when she used it. Even so… She still liked looking at valuable stuff and seeing if it was real or fake. Just a little of her old life. |

"That's sensible enough." he replied, still keeping his casual tone, hoping that Jasmine would at least lighten up a little. He wasn't letting it show, but it was very awkward talking to something that was always on edge. He tried making his usual bad-puns, and that did nothing to help the spider. What else could he do to allow Jasmine to relax a little? The pegasus would not have time to figure this out, however, as he heard another pony shout 'NOW!'. Solar had only a moment's glance to the side, seeing that three earth ponies had decided to throw rocks at the giant spider, giving Solar Chaser only a moment to react. This was enough, however, as he immediately dove, using his wings to propel himself to shove Jasmine out of the way and took the rocks for her. Two of them smashed into his hind-right leg, the force of the successive impacts causing a snapping sound to leave his leg, while the third- a particularly jagged rock, had nailed him right in the head, leaving a nasty cut and knocking the pony down. 'Way to take the fun out of it!' one of the three earth ponies complained as Solar Chaser let out a grunt, trying in vain to push himself back up as the trio of ponies ran off, leaving the two guards just realizing what happened while Solar was still on the ground. |

That had been fast. And scary. Very scary. She had seriously thought she was going to die for a moment there. Die without even a moment to curl up her legs under her like spiders did when they died. Just a smear of yellow goo. Princess Jasmine glared at the earth ponies and spat a wad of web at them. She had just met to hiss at them angrily, but she'd accidentally spat a web at them instead. It nailed the earth pony and stuck them to the ground. "Guards, pick him up. We must go to the hospital immediately." And get away from the earth ponies that were coming back to collect their trapped comrade. |

Unaware of what Jasmine had done to the earth pony, Solar tensed up a bit before he tried to flap his wings to lift himself off the ground- which would have worked were it not for the fact his left wing was pinned under him. However, the spider then ordered her guards to bring him to the hospital. Guards? he wondered. He hadn't recognized the two from Canterlot, but then again they could have just been from another place- he had no clue. All he knew was that he had been hoisted up by one guard to be laying on the back of the second guard, who proceeded to bring the pegasus to the hospital. |

Princess Jasmine skittered along beside them, stumbling every once and awhile. She was still really really clumsy in her new body. Especially in comparison to how she had been when she was a pony. She had totally had grace then. Beautiful, graceful. And now she was this. Disgusting. And her guards were awful. They hadn't saved her from this, and they hadn't saved her from being turned into a dragon. "Say, what's your cutiemark anyway?" Princess Jasmine asked, unable to see it. It was quite important to her. Not what it looked like really. "Special talent?" It was more about that part than the look of it. |

Solar blinked as he was asked about his cutie mark, hesitating a bit. He had been advised to keep his mark covered in training, mainly to prevent confusion that his strange mark would bring about. He had accomplished this by wearing a lighter version of his armor, which covered his torso and flank. However, the spider clarified and asked about his special talent, and he chuckled nervously, relieved that was what she meant. "Well...remember what I told you about heat coming off of me? That's my talent- to create and bring warmth." he explained, wincing a bit as his leg throbbed. "So much for being a hot-shot, huh?" he asked, cracking a pun to lighten the mood. |
