"That is his greatest power." Jinmay said looking down. "He can convince those that are evil to do his bidding and those like us, who have something missing, he can control however he wants."

"You've got history with him. What have you done to counter him in the past?" Sweetie asked.

Jinmay looked down at the Crystal Heart in her chest. "The first time I fell in love. The second time he came to save me."

"So..." Sweetie tried to make sense of it, "You found a way to fill the void he was using to take control of you?"

'In a way, yes." Jinmay said. "The first time I had nothing and I was confused, but Chiro filled that. The second time I had no past and didn't know who I was, but I was still harder to control so the Skeleton King just threw me away. This time? I guess it most have been the loss and helplessness I felt just before our universe was ended." "That must be it." Scootaloo said. "That must be why he was able to take control of Rarity."

"But... Rarity is the spirit of Generosity. Helping others is what she does best, what could she feel she's missing such that she could be controlled by it?" Sweetie said, more then a little upset and defensive about the prospects.

"You, duh!" Scootaloo pointed to Sweetie. "Remember when everyone was turned to crystal? Rarity must have been worried about what was going to happen to you since she couldn't protect you."

Sweetie fell silent as she tried to think through it. How could she fill that void? Would seeing her be enough, or would she need to prove that she didn't need to take care of her? she continued to think and dug in the ground a bit with her dagger.

"We'll get her back Sweetie, don't worry." Scootaloo told her friend. "You will need to get through the Skeleton King's hold in her, which probably means that you'll have to fight her." Jinmay told them. "But don't stop believing in her."

"I don't think I was prepared to fight my sister." She said honestly and looked to the dagger, her favorite weapon, "We'll tackle that when we need to." She stood up, "Let's get back to the base. We need to plan the next step."

"Alright." Scootaloo said looking out. "Still no sign of the big guy. Let's go while the going's good." Jinmay held her back so Sweetie could climb on.

"Yes, let's." Sweetie said and climbed back on Jinmay's back.

It didn't take them too long before they landed back in front of Silverspoon's house.
Ripple stopped. "I think this is a good spot to camp tonight." She announced.

Sweetie climbed off the robot and quickly walked inside. Her expression showed almost an absence of thought as she threw her stuff to the side and took a seat at the table.

Scootaloo and Jinmay followed her in. "Probably a good idea if we keep a low profile." Scootaloo said. "We better not use any light tonight."
ooc: You didn't post for Apple Bloom.

OOC: Sorry, forcive habit to submit after Sweetie now BIC: Sweetie nodded, "Yeah, we want to maintain that ghost town look." Sweetie said and pulled out a piece of paper. She looked like she was going to write something but then stopped, setting down the quill. Applebloom nodded and looked around, "Can't say we'll get attacked this far out, but it's probably a good idea to take turns on watch. You never know what's lurking in the darkness."

Scootaloo started exploring the house, not having gotten a chance earlier. Jinmay sat down across from Sweetie.
"Good idea." Ripple said. "Are you still alright Chrysalis? You've been carrying that changeling the whole day." "I am fine." Chrysalis told her. "I am a little worried about him though. Why hasn't he woken up yet?"

Sweetie sat quietly, partly not in the mood for conversation and partly unable to spark a conversation if she wanted to.
"I'll cover the first watch. I've still got lots of energy." Applebloom said sitting down.

"No magically preserved food in this house." Scootaloo said as she walked by. "Honestly, the colorful decor with the emptiness is giving me the creeps, maybe we should have stayed at someones home we don't know."
"Alright, I'll prepare some food for us before going to bed." Ripple said. "And don't worry Chrysalis, I'm sure he's fine. He's probably going to need time to build up strength after being in that machine."

Sweetie levitated her bag in front of her and pulled out a loaf of bread, "I brought this at the very least. At least we wont sleep hungry."
"What if he's broken? Like an engine that's red lined and overheated. Something that fuels his power internally might be actually broken." Applebloom said, trying to be helpful.

"I brought some of this mornings leftovers." Scootaloo said going to get her back.
Chrysalis gently put the changeling down. "I don't know." She said looking grim and worried. "Our magic works differently than with you, but we're not that different biologically. Even if he can't use his magic he should still wake up." Ripple nudged Apple Bloom in the ribs with a 'what the heck did you say that for' look.

"You don't eat, right?" Sweetie said, breaking the bread in half.
Applebloom shrugged defensively, "What? If something's broke, the first step to fixing it is figuring out what's wrong." she said, not seeing the harm in some constructive thinking.

"I do actually." Jinmay answered. "I do mostly everything a normal human does. I get energy from eating and sleeping."
"You don't have to put it so insensitively." Ripple whispered.

Sweetie broke the break up again, each half into three pieces, and handed two pieces to Jinmay, "Here you go."
Applebloom just rolled her eyes, "Fine. Sorry Chrysalis." she said stale-ly, though it was genuine in spite of that.

"Thank you." Jinmay said taking the bread. "And here's desert." Scootaloo said placing a few danishes on the table.
"It's fine." Chrysalis replied. "You probably have a right."

OOC: Not sure if you meant "have a right" BIC: "Yummo." Sweetie said with a smile, "funny how you take for granted sweets in these apocalypse scenarios." Applebloom sat down, feeling kind of bad now, and watched the horizon, her back turned to the others.

ooc: That's what I wrote "Are you kidding?" Scootaloo said. "Ripple could make something delicious out of a cardboard box." Ripple made a bed for herself out of grass that she could fins and then lied down, watching Chrysalis and Apple Bloom as she fell asleep.

OOC: "I'll prepare the food for us before going to bed." said no Ripple ever BIC: "Don't let her know that, she might actually try." Sweetie laughed. Applebloom kept her eyes locked on the horizon as the sun set rapidly... (how is this happening without the princess'?

ooc: ooc: I feel bad for overlooking that. A world like this really should have the sun and moon not working or even stuck in twilight like that one episode. It should definitely be a part of what everyone has to deal with and the first sign something is off to anyone new. And it should even be that perhaps Ripple and Sweetie took it upon themselves to raise the sun and moon as they're the only unicorns left. Man, so much missed opportunity. Why didn't you notice sooner? Scootaloo laughed as well as they started to dig in. Chrysalis lied down next to the changeling. Ripple suddenly sat up. "Oh? Is anypony hungry?"

OOC: Because time is so incredibly relative in our roleplay that the intricacies of sun and moon are easily lost, the real question is... how will we proceed?
BIC: Sweetie did just that, handing two of the bread pieces to Scootaloo.
"I could use a bite." Applebloom said, always hungry to a point.
