A Tale of Two Kingdoms

Seeing that Porko is about to take off after Wild Blue, despite there being a lot of expensive looking things around that they could break in their indoor chase, Note leaps onto Porko's back and grabs on, hoping to use her ponykinetic abilities to prevent any real damage being done.

Acrobatics: 5 + 5 (Riding FK) + 19 = 29

"Wha-...Oh, you little...!" Porko zoomed off after her, laughing and going as fast as he could possibly fly to try and pass her...He...More or less tried to avoid crashing into things, but his emphasis was on going FAST rather than careful...He was having a blast!

Athletics-based aerial racing!:

Wild Manages a lightning fast flight down the longest nearby corridor, but is no match for the beginners' luck and sheer determination of Porko. Lost in the thrill of the chase, they both crash through a very expensive looking window into the air over an inner courtyard. Porko quickly overtakes the pegasus. A cone forms around him at record speed, about to create the weapon of mass destruction that would be forever known as the Sonic Hamboom...
...
Until he's blocked...
...
By an alicorn...
...
With a really angry look on his face.

ART. THOU. MAD?!?

Seeing the carnage unfold, Steam only manages to mutter "Ah, bloody Niflham."

"Uh ah, no... Just a bit stupid and playful..." Wild jokes in fear... "Oh buck me to the core and back..."

"In my defense I saved this..... piece of window? Well on the plus side they didn't break anything else I had to save." Note says nervously.

"OH! Sorry, didn't see you-...There?" Porko's first time flying was brought to an abrupt halt as he stared at the alicorn, blinking for a moment. That look...He recognized that look. The boar slowly turned, looking over his shoulder, only now realizing there had been a window there, and turned back, looking bashful. "Eh, heh...Whoops...Sorry..." he said, looking down. He was...Probably in trouble now. "Got goin' and...Well...I guess I wasn't watchin' where I was going too well..."

Shortsighted pegasus, we cannot believe that one of our citizens could be so wasteful. Thy trust magicks are a rare gift, and rarer to use so easily. A gift such as that... must be used responsibly.

He hovers toward you, very close, wings not even flapping:

I know what happens if they are not.

He turns to Tourmaline.

Crystal Pony, thy intent art appreciated, and we hope that you have not been soured against our fair country, but silence now behooves you as well.

Finally, taking a deep breath, he looks again to the boar, still grasped in hoof.

There are not many magic using boars in Caballia, and there are none save 'The Mighty Porko' who would attempt this. Reputation aside, I know you to be an intelligent being. You have knowledge. You know the consequences of your actions. You. Need. To. Think.

"I know Prince Solum... I know... Just kinda assumed that the big guy might be able to fly nearly as fast as me.. AND HE DID! Only forgot where we were... And the inherent dangers of two fliers racing at high speeds... We're lucky you stopped us Prince Solum." Wild Blue said looking down not able to look the leader in the eye.

Yeah, Solum was definately furious...He hadn't meant for the demonstration to go this far awry...He just didn't know how it all went so wrong! Still, now wasn't the time to stay quiet... "Sorry, sorry...I get caught up in the moment, and all that matters is whatever I'm doing...I ain't perfect, an' I know that I probably messed up pretty bad...I should've paid more attention, I know...I try to, but...Yeah...Sorry, your highness...Don't take it out on them, though...I'm the one who asked for a demonstration of her magic, everything that happened's on my head, not theirs." He looked at Solum for a moment, hoping that maybe if Solum really was that mad, he'd only take it out on Porko himself...He was tough, he could endure it...He wasn't so sure about Blue or Note...

"Nah, if someone hasn't done somethin' yet, you're clearly a good guy..." Porko blinked, looking at him. That 'logic' was indisputable as far as he cared...Solum was a prince, he was supposed to be trusted. "But yeah...I'll do my best to try and not be so bad about it again..."

"Just to check.... you're the prince guy?" Note asks.

I am the master of spin and motion. I am the alicorn attuned with the planet itself. I am Prince Solum, and contrary to what a certain blue unicorn thinks THE ENTIRE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND ME!

He smirks.

Or rather, it revolves because of me.

"Ooooh. Neat! That gives me an idea for a spell. I guess that means you must be a pretty good dancer huh? I'm always happy to do private recital for you your majesty." Note replies chipperly, having apparently forgotten her previous worries.

The Prince spends a moment looking bemused, before figuring out your logic and stating simply:

Perhaps after your mission. The lot of you should begin heading to the train station nigh-immediately.

Wild Blue nods and then gets a going to the train right away.

streetsmarts check to find the way to the train:

Porko nodded, thinking for a moment. "Yeah, you're right...We need to get started sooner rather than later..." With that, Porko flew after Blue...More carefully this time, trusting her to know where she was going...

Note waved goodbye to the prince as she was carried away.

After waiting for a few minutes back with the others that declined to take part in the race. "They aren't going to come back for us are they? Shall we make our own way then?"

Steam chuckles. "Too right we should, can't let 'em have all the fun. Trixie, it's been a pleasure."

"...Indeed, good luck on your mission," Trixie politely says as she sees you out of the castle.

-----------------------------------------

The party makes it to the train station (and board) without incident, and are set up in one suitably large room near the back; you have the whole car to yourselves.

"Blimey, a whole car just for us, and I don't think I've seen a single journo today," muses Steam as he takes a seat and relaxes. "The Prince did a crackin' job keep this under wraps."
