"Snow gave it to me." Legacy's mouth curved into a wicked grin at the idea. The Avenger. Yes. Avenging herself upon all the villains out there. To the day where she found the ones who had done this to her, and beyond. A hero forever. The idea of her name was thrilling to her. Had she not been wearing her glasses they would've found that her already creepy smile had a pair of eyes that were the epitome of 'if looks could kill.' In fact the flowers in a pot next to Legacy wilted in comic effect. "I like it." She hissed.

The archery range was generally kept free of any hoof traffic; seeing has how, with literally being made of entirely unicorns outside of Steel Wing, the guard didn't want any accidents thanks to misfired magic.

However, today, there was one colt- a recruit who looked fresh out of basic training no less- standing at the edge of the range, shaking in his horseshoes.

"Y-you can't be serious!" He seemed ready to faint and the apple that- for some reason- was place just mildly off-center on his head seemed ready to fall as his shakes continued. "This has to violate SOMETHING in the regulations!"

"Ordinarily, kid, you'd be right." An older unicorn paused to spot... something out onto the ground with a smirk. "But the 2nd lieutenant is a bit of a special case with me; so quit yer bellyachin'."

The colt opened his mouth to protest, when suddenly

SCHTHUNK!

The apple was blasted off his head, pinned to a target behind him dead-center by an arrow. The colt reached up to touch his horn, having literally felt the feathers of the arrow brush up against them for a fraction of a millisecond.

Steel Wing, meanwhile, casually fluttered down from the guard tower that overlooked the training grounds, bow still in hoof as he landed in front of the recruit. "Now, tell me; are you going to blow off training to hang out with your buddies again?"

"N-n-no, sir! The colt hastily saluted.

"There's a good boy." He trotted over and pulled his arrow out of the target, complete with the fruit still attached. "Apple?"

Nocturne

Nocturne trotted onto the target range.

"Oi, Steel Wing! How ya doing? Your helmet good?" he asked.

"Not dented or anything, is it? I can get you a replacement if it's not working for you." Nocturne said, grinning.

"If you get out of that shooting range i'd feel happy to get that off your hooves! But for now I'd rather not tempt my good friend Murphy!" Legacy shouted over to the pony. This was Steel Wing? This was to be her trainer? AWESOME. This would be amazing, she would be awesome. She was absolutely quivering in excitement of the lesson to come.

Icefox

Snowbird trotted up behind Legacy, chuckling at the excited mare.

"One step at a time, dear. First we have to see if he's even available for training right now." Ice, on the other hand, had trotted over to the viewing area to sit next to a black pony who had been refereeing the spat between Steel and the new recruit.

"Hey Blackflame. It's been a while."
"That it has. Need something, or are you just here to chat?"
"I'm finding myself in need of a pony talented in evocations." Ice pulled out his blasting rod, now set with onyx in the carved runes. "I want you to enchant this to let off a nice gout of flame whenever I say the word fuego." Blackflame sighed and sat for a moment, before taking the rod from the professor.
"You'll owe me for this one later. Deal?"
"I wouldn't have it any other way."

Finally getting the colt to take the apple, and letting him gallop away from him at full speed, Steel Wing chuckled at Nocturne's concerns. "The helmet's fine, kid; don't worry about it. Archers really don't see that much close range combat, if the other ponies do their jobs!" His voice was raised in a good nature jab at Blackflame; since the two of them were both ponies that seemed to have their weapons mixed up, Steel liked to joke about their efficiency with them. Though Blackflame was every bit as good with his blades as Steel Wing was with his bow, the monochrome pegasus was still far from above messing with his friends.

"Anyway; what brings you here today? I don't recall placing any orders; and the last time I ordered something when I was drunk, it didn't show up until late in the night." He paused, then snickered. "Though, I have to admit, he was pretty damned good in bed; so I can't complain about it."

She had been hoping for that apple… But oh well! Legacy laughed loudly at the joke , throwing her head back. Her sunglasses glinted in the sunlight. She looked back at him. "Please tell me you've got some time, I gotta learn something other than how to love." The shield charm in her charm bracelet activated at the word, enveloping any of her friends that were in a four foot range, while pushing anyone else away. It was an effective shield with quirks even she didn't know all about. It was her most prized possession of her first journey with Nocturne and Icefox.

In memory of that day a touch of lust hit her, her mouth tingling with the remembered sensation. She was glad she didn't have wings, that would be most embarrassing for her.

Nocturne

Nocturne laughed.

"I still find it difficult to see that happening, but whatever floats your boat." Nocturne said to Steel Wing, shrugging.

"I, uh... I need a favor. See, my marefriend was assaulted awhile back, and she wants some lessons. We were hoping you could teach her some archery?" he said hopefully.

It was at that moment that Legacy's shield popped up, pushing Steel Wing away.

"...................... Wow. That's... pretty cool, but at the same time, a little frustrating, heh." Nocturne said with a chuckle.

"Oof!" The overgrown pony staggered back for a bit, before his hooves got in the way of each other and he fell square on his plot.

However, being who he was, and after he'd cleared his head, this just made him laugh. "You might want to get that looked at." He chuckled with good humor as he stood back up. "It's normally stallions who have problems with things going off unexpectedly, but I suppose it could happen with mares as well."

He picked up his bow again, having dropped it when the shield had hit him. "Anyway, lessons. I'll admit, my schedule's a bit hectic right now; but I think I have some free time here and there. We could probably work something out; I mean, if you don't mind having a pegasus for your teacher." A lot of ponies, like that one colt whom had been skipping his training, still had issues with the idea that the best archer in the guard wasn't a unicorn; best get that out of the way up front.

Icefox

Snowbird grinned and carefully wrapped her hoof around Legacy's foreleg, nodding at her to let her. "Give me a couple minutes, and I'll have it fixed up for you. May I?" Meanwhile, Blackflame put the finishing touches on the blasting rod's enchantment, before passing it back to Icefox. The stones that made up the runic enchantments were now glowing with a crimson liquidity, including five small notches on the side.

"Okay, the command is set to fuego, with a secondary set at pyrofuego. The latter drains the power pretty quickly, so only use it in special situations. Got it?" Ice took the rod with a grin, before pointing it downrange.

"Fuego!" At the word, the metal bar unleashed a torrent of flame, which shot a good twenty yards and incinerated a paper target. At the same time, one of the notches on the side went out, returning to being simple stone.

"Each fuego puts out one of those notches, each pyrofuego puts out three. When all of them are out the rod is completely depleted, and it takes about ten minutes to charge back up under normal circumstances. Be careful, I'd rather you not kill anyone that doesn't deserve it with that. It'd be rather troublesome to drag you into court." Ice thanked the unicorn, before returning to the group.

"So, Legacy, you find a teacher?"

"I don't see we I would mind." Legacy yipped, completely unaware of the stereotypes that came within the army. Before recently she had never thought that she would even touch a weapon, let alone use it against somepony in combat. And she hadn't been much interested in learning things that didn't concern her- a big reason why she had flunked a few years and slept through most of her classes. Not that she cared much for her classes any more. She had friends and gold and stuff.

And a cutiemark. She didn't need to rely on her parents any more, she had to push her own way through the world and know that while things had been bad they wouldn't always be that way. They weren't now, that was for sure. They were better than ever even for the things that had happened. "Yah! I got this guy Steel Wing here! Did you see him arrowing an apple from the heights? I bet he's the best ever! FO MAH GAWD FIRE!" She leaped a foot into the air in surprise.

Nocturne

Nocturne laughed at Legacy's enthusiasm, then glanced over at Icefox.

"So, I'll leave you two to do your thing, maybe hash out a schedule. I gotta ask Icefox something." Nocturne said, walking over to said pegasus.

"Oi, Ice, c'mere a sec, I gotta ask you a favor."

Icefox

Snowbird laughed and followed Legacy along, hoping to pick some bits of archery up by osmosis. Ice, on the other hand was grim, knowing what usually came of Nocturne wanting a conversation with him one-on-one.

"What do you need? Keep in mind that I'm not going to buy you any more energy drinks, though. You nearly broke physics last time."

Nocturne

Nocturne rolled his eyes.

"Yeah yeah, listen..." Nocturne glanced over at Snowbird, then turned back to Icefox.

"Look, I'm going to propose to your sister tonight, and I need your help getting everything set up." Nocturne told him.

Icefox grinned, and immediately gave Nocturne a solid chuck on the back.

"About time, Noc! I've been waiting for you to do this for a while now. What do you need?"
