Re: The Sun Sets
Sunburst looks at the door to the other hallway for a moment, and is about to say something before she hears Storm. She looks back between the group and the door, the front door, then back to the group. She visible steels herself then nods to Gearick.
"Right," she swallows, "r-ready."

Playerwise: There are still a lot of rabbit-holes here I'd like to explore, particularly Juniper's deal (I have theories but they're based off of meta knowledge I don't think any of us has complete information for in character [as well as logical leaps]).
Characterwise: Sunburst wants to GTFO.

Re: The Sun Sets
(I agree, I don’t think that Quick Fix and Jupiter have been resolved, and we will likely be returning... but for now, we need to move on and hopefully group back together, the party is rather fractured at the moment.)
Gearick nodded and opened the door, stepping through in order to take point. The guard instinctively swept the area, looking for any potential threats. The laughers were the main priority in that regard of course, but just because they were the obvious threat, didn’t mean they were going to be the ONLY threat.

Storm steps outside, pushing Thermal along, and noticing Gearick's alertness, reminds him to be alert as well. Storm takes a moment to survey his surroundings.

Re: The Sun Sets
Sunburst doesn't need prompting to be on the look out, the laughing ponies got the jump on her once, she wasn't going to let it happen again. Being under sky again (and out of the Quick Fix's) is a huge relief though, she stretches and flaps her wings before focusing again, though her mood appears brighter. She tries to stay close to Storm & Thermal, letting Gearick take point.
- Perception (kuz all the kool kidz are doing it):
Sunburst rolls 1d20+11 = 25 ℹ #Perception
Thanks to the BS of Heart of Courage if there's something that has a DC of 30 I see that

Re: The Sun Sets
Bells:
You cannot make out any words, because they seem to be talking low. There is definitely a tone of aggression in what you can hear, though.
Sunburst, Gearick, Storm:
While pushing Thermal out into the front yard, Gearick and Storm can immediately see two ponies walking towards your direction, each of them wearing a variation of Guard Armor. They seem to see you, and speed up to a trot. Meanwhile, Sunburst is vaguely aware of something in the corner of her eye, but when she looks, there's nothing there. As perplexing as this is, she is also immediately aware of the sound of giggling, faint, but nearby.

Re: The Sun Sets
- OOC:
- 1:)I don't suppose Sunburst can tell the direction of the giggling can she?
2:) Likewise, what direction was the thing in the corner of her eye, back towards QF, left, right, above?
3:) the walls around QF's place are still intact, and gate still closed and intact right?
Sunburst sees the guards and tries to locate that thing she saw, the latter to no avail. She freezes and goes tense when she hears the giggling.
"Laughing ponies!" She says in a tense stage whisper, "close,I can hear them. Thought I saw something over there too."
Sunburst points to where she thought she saw something.

Re: The Sun Sets
Gearick was rather surprised to see two guards pretty much arriving and soon as they left, and was put on edge by it as well. Maybe he was getting paranoid, but with how crazy the situation was, the unicorn wasn’t going to lower his guard just yet... though he did step forwards to meet them, keeping his voice calm as he said. “Hey, didn’t expect to see anyone here. Is there a problem, or are you just here to check on how the cure is being produced?”

Storm whispers to Gearick. "Ixnay on the cure-nay. I don't know whether these are guards or just dressed like them. Let's just see what they want first."

"Last time I checked two wrongs don't make a right," comments Night Scales. "Just 'cus he's a bad apple don't mean you get off the hook if you are breaking the law." She takes a look at Dodger and continues with "And likewise to you mister. Now, how about we all stop trying to start something and sort this out." Scales look back at the pegasus ponies. "Now, tell me the downlow, and you better be square with me, I'll know otherwise."

Storm blinks a bit as the ponies comes closer. "Sorry, false alarm."

Re: The Sun Sets
I would hope you didn't use all of it on yourself and Thermal.
Storm, Gearick, Sunburst:
Cobalt and Swallowtail nod at you from behind the fence. "I take it you made some progress on the cure? Things are tense out here." As Cobalt speaks, Swalowtail glances around, clearly on edge. "Who's the filly?"
Scales, Dodger, Penned:
"No, I don't think I will." The frontmost pegasus doesn't move, apparently still trying to intimidate you into leaving- but that is undone by his buddy, who snaps. "Buck it!" He yells, and lunges at Dodger.
Gen, Bells:
You hear someone yell from around the next corner.
Everyone in the Cure Group, roll perception.
Everyone in the fight group, roll initiative. Gen and Bells- assuming they DO SOMETHING- will come in after the first round or so.

Re: The Sun Sets
Dodger rolled his eyes. He had been prepared for this for the past five months minutes or so. They couldn't have telegraphed their desire to fight more if they tried.
Oh well. Gave Dodger more time to get ready.
Initiative: 1d20 (Nat 20) + 6 = 26

Dodger gets opening move.
Storm, Sunburst, Gearick:
"Sergeant." Cobalt corrects you. "Well if you have the cure then we should get you back to Town Hall to see the lieutenant. She can take it up the chain, put a hold on whatever action is planned while that goes into production." "I think we should hurry," Swallowtail interjects, his ears twitching. Sunburst hears the giggling again, and this time you locate it, coming from the same direction that Swallowtail is looking (towards the left hand alleyway, outside the fence).

Re: The Sun Sets
"-Hi-" Sunburst only glances at Sergeant Colbalt and the other (rather cute) stallion. She refocuses on the giggling looking left to find the source. She rubbernecks and looks to the right as well, not sure if she was just seeing things but not wanting to take a chance. She continues in a harsh whisper, a little louder than before"
"Can't you guys hear the laughing ponies! They're close..."
"Can't you guys hear the laughing ponies! They're close..."

Re: The Sun Sets
"All the more reason to head off." Storm can't hear the giggling(I'm assuming not, as it was only mentioned that Sunburst and Swiftwind could hear it.) but the looks on Swiftwind's and Sunburst's faces told him all he needed to know. "I'm ready when you are."

Re: The Sun Sets
As the pegasus charged, Dodger called upon all his martial training to simply... step to the side and hold out a leg to trip him. Nothing expressly lethal, but still highly annoying.

Re: The Sun Sets
“Yes, lets get going quickly. We should be able to fight any of the gigglers off, but with Threstal to be taken into consideration, that is a risk I would rather not want to take.” Gearick said with a nod of agreement, even if he was coming up with a few ideas of his own... just in case they did have problems. Through most of them involved ripping up some of the nearby fences, which would not likely be appreciated... then again, he never had to say he did so...

Re: The Sun Sets
Storm, Gearick, Sunburst:
Storm doesn't notice anything additional.
"Fine. I'll see you all back tot he barricade again." "These things are insane. They hide around corners, always out of sight, then suddenly they're right there..." Swallowtail shakes his head, still watching the direction the giggling came from. "We shouldn't let our guard down." "Lets move." Cobalt starts leading the way back, with Swallowtail hanging back to follow everyone else and watch the rear.
Combat group:
Pegasus B nearly trips, but flaps his wings to remain upright. He continues, however, past Dodger and headlong into Scales, ramming her- mostly unintentionally.
