XII Arcana | [Visual]

[linefacingforever]

[Like before, there's a scroll that comes on, sending out to everyone that cares to look at their own, though there's nopony on the image. Instead, there's a clear view of a wall in the Canterlot palace racing by... at least it was a wall until it suddenly burst into flame thanks to a blast of magic tossed at it.]

[A familiar voice let out a startled noise, before skidding around to show Tirek down the hall. Another wall burst near by, and the scroll owner had to duck and run, knowing he was outmatched.]

I-if anyone can see this, that... I don't know what he is, but he got into the palace. The princesses... I don't know what's happening, we've just got to get defenses going.

[A fireball flew over his head, almost getting a scream of surprise out of him.]

We need to get defenses going now!

Comments

[gigglesnortpriestess]

[Now he speaks.]

We're already doing that.

[No 'are you ok' because that was a stupid question and yeah...still pissed at you.]

[linefacingforever]

Good.

[He's too focused on trying to escape to look at the scroll, but the worry in his voice is really easy to hear.]

Where are you all? I'll try to rejoin you.

[gigglesnortpriestess]

Ponyville.

[She wants to scream at him but the situation is not good right now. Her voice holds no emotion right now but she does feel the worry. It won't help them getting scared...and she would have to think about the idea that he might not be able to join them.]

If you can't move, don't. You'll be safer there.

[linefacingforever]

[A trail of fire suddenly flashed by the image, and Yu let out a startled noise.]

I think not moving is a bad idea right now!

[gigglesnortpriestess]

Then move!

You don't need to tell us what you have to do, just do it!

[linefacingforever]

[Well, he wasn't exactly expecting that harsh of a response.]

Yukiko...?

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Just a little more worry on this end.]

S-Sensei...?

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

Yeah, it's m--

[Yu cut off as a blast came uncomfortably close, flinching.]

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Oh, that sounded good.]

GAH! I...uh....

[The obvious sounds of bear panic begins.]

I...I'm gonna come and save you, don't worry!

I...I dunno how, I don't have any money for a train t-ticket...but I'll find a way! Just hang in there!

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

No, stay there, Teddie. Help the others get ready for what's coming.

I... think I can lose him.

[He didn't sound so confident about that.]

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Which, of course, doesn't help ease Teddie at all.]

No, you listen here! There's a whole group of them and only one of Yu! Yuki-chan can do the healy stuff, and Chie-chan can do the same ice-type stuff I can do. They won't even know I'm gone!

[sailorlaughter]

Ohmigosh ohmigosh! RUN! STOP TALKING AND RUN!

[linefacingforever]

W-working on that...!

[like_a_dragon]

[There are a lot of thoughts going on right now. "Sucks to be you." "Why don't you figure this one out?" But despite how angry she's feeling about him right now, she's not that heartless.]

... ... ... what's the situation, chief?

[linefacingforever]

Honestly, I don't know.

[The picture suddenly shifted as he turned down a corridor. To anyone that knew the palace, they might recognize he was at least close to the entrance.]

He's powerful, whatever he is. But that's about all I can say.

[like_a_dragon]

Well, we're nowhere near you, so there really isn't much we can do. The only thing I can suggest is that we do have some flyers if you need to get out that way.

Maybe Naoto and Tails can get to you quickest?

[linefacingforever]

No, I... I think I can get out of here.

[It's clear from his tone that he's not really betting on that.]

If you can clear the way, it'd be helpful. I'll be able to get back that way.

[like_a_dragon]

--is it just you?

[Said with a hint of worry. How many else are we talking about, here?]

[foolish_seal]

We're working on it. You just get yourself out of there and beat him to Ponyville. We need all the help we can get.

[linefacingforever]

Trying to do th--

[He cut off as something exploded over his head, forcing him to skid to a stop. A loud bang came over the scroll next, followed by the crackle of flames.]

Gh...!

[The picture shifted as Yu got back up, rearing back, before taking a leap that took him over the flames and to the other side of what fell.]

I'm trying to get back as fast as I can!

[Visual]

[loveisabattlefield]

Everyone's already hard at work, I assure you. We need all the help we can get, though.

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

Doing my best, Princess. I'm almost to the entrance.

[Visual]

[loveisabattlefield]

I can fly you back here, if you need help.

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

That's okay, Princess. Worry about the others; I'll be fine.

[Visual]

[loveisabattlefield]

Are you sure? You must be exhausted; let me at least heal you with my magic.
