"It's fair." Ripple said and picked up the dice. "Uh?" Scootaloo was looking very unsure at the dice. "Can't we just leave her here? I mean, what's she going to do? Raid the fridge?"

"I don't think we should leave her here though. Maybe somewhere warmer if it comes to it, but we'll not be so cruel as to leave her in the frozen north on her own. Besides, I feel she'll be useful if we keep her around, even if it's only as bait." Sweetie said without batting an eyelash as she waited for Ripple to roll the dice. "What're the rules of the dice roll?" AB said, taking a seat beside Sweetie.

"Obviously I meant if we're going to make this our base." Scootaloo said. "We just keep her at whatever place will be our base." "Lowest dice looks after Chrysalis." Ripple said and rolled the dice.

"Hmm... We're not enough to charge the crystal heart, right?" Sweetie said, taking the dice and throwing them out there.

"No." Scootalooo said picking up the dice. "If it was that easy Cadence and Shining alone could have charged it. At least nothing evil can use it." She threw her dice.

"Well... I'd have to roll snake eyes to get worse then that." AB said with a laugh. She picked up the dice and threw them again. fqhg5xS91-6 + 1-6 = 6 "Looks like it's you Scoots." AB said laughing again.1-6·1-6

"Seriously!" Scoots said with a huff. "I knew this was going to happen." "Come on Scootaloo, it was fair." Ripple told her. "Fine! I'll foalsit Chrysalis, but you girls better not get beaten out there." Scootaloo huffed again. "Alright, now we need to decide what we should do." Ripple said. "Let's make a list of what we know and our priorities from what is the most urgent matter to the least urgent."

"Alright, let's pick a specific room. It's cold here in the open." Sweetie said, walking around to where the kitchen would be, "We should be able to start a fire in the kitchen area."

"Sounds good." Ripple said following. "Come along Chrysalis." Scootaloo called out to the changeling who had made herself comfortable in a corner of the room. "You can get warm with us, unless you like the cold." Chrysalis got up and followed without a word.

In the kitchen, Sweetie immediately moves the clutter to the next room with her magic and reached into her had for a small vial. While the stuff moves out, some wood moves into the fireplace. Applebloom stood in the center of the room, so as to stay out of the way for the move.

Ripple grabbed a pen a paper that was used to take stock of the kitchen's supplies and dusted it off. She sat down at the table and started writing. "Okay, the most obvious things are the Skeleton King, the barrier and the robot."

Sweetie thought as she emptied the bottle into the fireplace, which in turn lit on fire and started warming the place up, "Are we sure there's still a robot? We took it's arm off and you sent it's missiles flying at it when we teleported out."

"That's true." Ripple said. "But let's keep it on the list in case it's still working. That way we'll know what we're going to do when we meet it. What else was there? All the ponies across Equestria obviously and the changelings. What else?"

"We need to figure out who he's got captures." Applebloom chimed in, "He said he could release ponies from crystals too, and that he had one o the ponies brainwashed or something." "And we should also figure out where he's keeping Broly and the others. We might need their strength if Skeleton King is too strong for us." Sweetie added, just trying to think of their options. OOC: I can't remember if Bio's gone in this future.

ooc: He's not gone here, remember how shocked Scootaloo was when she heard the news?
"Whoa! Let's try to keep this organized." Ripple said as she wrote. "Okay, we don't know where Broly, Raider and Bio is and he did say that he was keeping them in a safe place. So he doesn't want them to be released or us to find them, so let's move that to later for now until we can find out more information. Finding out who is captured should be easier than breaking through the barrier. So let's move that up. He said he placed them next to the barrier at intervals, so if we scout around the city we should be able to see which one is missing. He also gave us this information, so we should be careful since he'll expect us to do that. Now the robot is an unknown factor right now. What do we do if we meet it again?"

I think we should focus on disabling it, not beating it." Sweetie said, "We'll focus our efforts on the Skeleton King, since the robot isn't so much a threat as it is a nuisance." "Yeah, me an' Scoots didn't really have a problem with it." Applebloom added, feeling they were only a little bit from beating it, "It's almost suspicious how easy it was to fight."

"Maybe he didn't expect us to be that strong." Scootaloo said. "None the less." Ripple spoke up. "I know Skeleton King is top priority, but we don't know anything about him, we don't know where he is and we don't know any of his plans. We haven't even met him in person yet, which means that robot he was talking on may also still be a threat. If we concentrate our efforts on him then we're just going to be wasting energy and walking into his traps. We have to move up the ladder before we get to him. If we can rescue any other ponies, do any damage or delay his plans in any way that has to take priority over him."

"Then priority two should be handling that barrier. If we can get inside and detach our friends from that machine, then that's one less thing for him to have over our heads. We could explore an underground method of bypassing the barrier as an option." Applebloom said. "And we did break off the robots arm. We could analyze that and try to determine what kind of technology we're dealing with." Sweetie also offered as another point. "Oh, and the egg things. We should look into those if we're going to save the changelings." Applebloom said, "Though I'm not sure what priority to give it."

Chrysalis looked up at hearing mention of her changelings. "It shouldn't be hard to capture one of the eggs, right?" Scootaloo said. "And if there is a changeling inside that's one changeling saved." "Great idea!" Ripple said. "Knowing what technology we're dealing with will help us with everything else we need to do. And the eggs are always moving out of the city to bring in more ponies. Wait..." Ripple slapped her forehead. "Why didn't I think about it sooner! There are still ponies in Ponyville, we should bring them to a safe place before they can be taken."

"Scoots and I can get the arm while you and AB collect up our friends still in Ponyville. AB can keep the eggs off them while you take your time getting them here." Sweetie said.

"Alright, but we should capture one of the eggs before we teleport the ponies..." Ripple started, but was interrupted. "Carefully." Chrysalis said. "Please." "Capture one of the eggs, carefully." Ripple corrected. "Before we teleport the ponies. We don't know if the eggs will come if there are no ponies to collect. Also, you and Scoots should try and see if you can spot another one of our friends next to the barrier, but be careful. If anything happens Sweetie, you let me know and I'll teleport you away. Chrysalis will be with you so just avoid anything."

OOC: I'm assuming Sweetie already knows how to contact Ripple if they're separated?
BIC: "Alright, and we'll only act if we need to. So far, this is mostly reconnaissance." Sweetie said, peaking at the list they'd made thus far. "I'll make sure to be extra gentle with the weird eggs." Applebloom said, and it was at least a little genuine sounding.

ooc: Yep, be creative. Anything but telepathy since I'm sure neither can use it. Or just a magical beacon that Ripple can feel if you can't think of anything else. "Thank you." Chrysalis replied to Apple Bloom which also sounded at least a little genuine. "Okay, here we go." Ripple said. "This is tricky, so try to stay still." In a flash Ripple and Apple Bloom was in Ponyville and the rest a little distance from where they left the robot. "I need to see where all the ponies are that are still here." Ripple said. Scootaloo made sure their was no sign of an active robot around them when they arrived. "Alright, let's head over to the arm." But the arm and robot were both gone when they got there.

OOC: I'll think of something when the opportunity presents itself. BIC: "Here, I'll get an aerial view." AB said and stooped low before jumping high into the air. She was almost at the cloud line, if there was one, and looked down to try and see if she could spot the ponies from up there. She also looked in the direction of Canterlot to possibly spot any oncoming eggs.

"Wait, I..." Ripple said as AB jumped into the air. "...need to see them for myself or it wont help much." She finished to nopony, but herself. Apple Bloom could see most ponies towards the side of the town they were at before. She could also see and egg heading into Ponyville, but it was slow and would be a few minutes before it reached the ponies.
"It's gone." Scootaloo said. "Alright, so I'm going to take this as 'robot is till an issue' then. Let's try to at least see one of our friends before going back."

OOC: I play AB a lot like Raider played Raider and AB brash and a little lot impulsive. AB dove to the ground, nose first, and caught herself with one hoof. She landed right beside Ripple and looked to where the egg was coming from, "There's one egg coming and the ponies are basically where we left them. Along that side of town." She explained, pointing in the various directions. "Alright, I can help us move quietly, but we should try to stay a little hidden too." Sweetie said and started to cast a spell. It created an invisible field of sorts around their hooves and Scootaloo's wings, to absorb any sound they might give off. She pointed towards the force field to let Scootaloo lead the way.

"Okay." Ripple said. "Let's capture the egg first, not near the ponies if possible, in case it has defenses."
Scootaloo started towards the force field. Ripple had teleported them away some distance and it was going to take some time before they got to it. "Why don't you transform into a disguise to help us out?" Scoots asked Chrysalis. "And what shall I turn into?" Chrysalis asked. "A robot? And I'm weak, without love fueling my powers the transformation would last minutes, if even that much."

"Let's get to it first. We could follow it after it's taken a pony and then we only have to separate it from the one instead of protect the masses, right? Can you teleport one pony back into town if we let it get away with the initial capture." Applebloom said, leading the way to where it was.
"It's a shame you can't get the power of love through non-deceptive means." Sweetie said, listening in but focusing on their surrounings.

"Yeah, I can do that, but let's go with the get to it first thing." Ripple said. "There's much less risk involved to capture it before it takes a pony."
"You mean love normally?" Chrysalis asked with a sneer. "Or do you mean some other way that you are able to turn the love of someone else into magic that we don't know about? No, you can't do that. You're love is used to empower your own magic, activate the magic that already exits. Your magic doesn't stop working just because your friends becomes your enemy. So you don't understand. But if you're talking about love normally, like you do, then yes, it is possible for changelings to do that. If somepony were to love me, well not me, but any other changeling, that love can't be changed into power. It could in fact do more harm to a changeling than good."

"Alright then, high gear." AB said and started sunning to where the egg was coming from as full gallop, "Yeeeeehaaawwwww!" She announced, clearly enjoying the action of the moment.
"Hmm... You'll have to tell me more about this when we're not trying to save Equestria. I was just throwing the concept out there." Sweetie said, still focusing her sights on their surroundings.
