4th Week: Incident [Visual]

(The visual opens with a familiar, albeit jittery mare looking over her shoulders and rubbing her foreleg. She seems exhausted and nervous about something, but is doing her best to keep a straight face.)

How long has it been since the Pale Pony made her appearance? It feels different, like weeks have passed. I...can't remember anything past that day.

(Hey eyes keep moving about, frantically looking for something.)

I tried reading her thoughts that day, but she knew what I was doing. I couldn't read hers...but I heard the thoughts of so many others. So many voices crying out from within her. Countless voices...nngh!

(The Reaper winces, but shakes her head.)

...That is all.

Kreutzer! Come to me with haste!
There is not one second to waste!

Zecora?

(Kreutzer does as she's told, unfurling her wings and making for the zebra's hut in the Everfree Forest, but her scroll is still recording.)

Is something happening?

Your return may be the key
To blocking the Pale Pony.

Me? I...don't see how, but if you think so, I'll do what I can.

Kreutzer!

(Well that certainly makes her jump. The unicorn's uneasy as-is, but...this one recognizes her.)

I'm sorry...have we met before?

Yeah...you...don't remember, do you?

I'm afraid not.

Is this something I should remember?

[Nope. No scrolls. Only action now. Fluttershy scours Ponyville for any trace of Kreutzer. They nee to find her. And they do eventually find her.

So, Kreutzer, what do you do when a yellow pegasus with pink hair glomps you and starts crying?]

(She takes the most logical action she can think of: being tackled to the ground and hugging the poor pegasus. Kreutzer feels as though she let Cruelly down by dying in such a pathetic fashion...but it's too late to take it back. She screwed up and all that's left is to keep on moving and don't look back. It's easier for her when she doesn't look back.

She wordlessly hugs Fluttercruel.)

[Cruelly feels really grateful for one of her best friends' hug. She missed it; she missed Kreutzer. The crying continues, but Cruelly speaks through her sobs.]

W- we thought you were Erased...!

I thought so, too.

(To be honest, she wasn't sure if she'd be Erased or simply brought into the Pale Pony, but if she's here, then at least it's not the former.

Dying still sucks, though.)

...I'm sorry.

[Like with Cruelly, no scroll. The moment she sees her message, she runs out of the boutique to go look for her. Eventually she does and runs towards Kreutzer.

Clearly this is going to be a happy reunion between marefriends, right?]

[Nope. Instead of a hug, she raises a hoof and swings it in an attempt to slap Kreutzer across the face.]

How dare you! How dare you pull such a stupid stunt like that? WHAT IN TARTARUS WERE YOU THINKING?!

Don't you ever scare me like that again or I swear to Celestia I'll....

[Give her a moment to cool down, Kreutzer.]

(Kreutzer does nothing to defend from Coco's rage. It's rightfully deserved; she made a stupid decision, paid for it and made her loved ones suffer for it. She's not proud, especially since it didn't net her any kind of consolation.

Rather than argue, Kreutzer lets the mare continue, head tilted downwards and accepting the scolding like an obedient child. Coco's not wrong here and Kreu knows it.)

[She does rant a little more before she finally starts calming down, and the rage she had felt went away.]

I'm glad you're back. I honestly thought you really had been erased.

[So the last thing that Kreuzter probably wants is another being that even feels remotely close to the Pale Pony... and yet there she is. The unicorn with red eyes peers curiously... yes, she's felt this power before when Big Bad made an appearance.]

Explain.

[Ah, wait, civility, right.]

Please.

[Nailed it.]

(Something about this girl felt familiar. Not a "have we met before" familiar, but the aura from this girl. It's not a pull of death, but that is a higher being of some kind. A very high being. She can't describe it. It may be due to whatever trauma the Pale Pony inflicted on Kreutzer before returning her to Equestria, but this girl makes her uneasy.)

I assume you refer to the voices. There were too many at once for me to understand any of them. I'm used to listening to multiple thoughts at once, a city block or so, but nothing of that magnitude. It's strange of me to say, but it felt like I heard the thoughts of an entire universe that day.

I see.

[Nothing too uncommon for her. Then again, she had known a fair number of entities that had consumed an entire universe. Most usually don't bother to listen to the ruckus doing so makes.]

[Yg'baladoth found that sound rather distinctive. She has a crystallized fragment of it locked away in her mindspace, if anybody would dare wish to hear it.]

[Still, that this "Pale Pony" was capable of doing so gives Yggy a bit more knowledge of the type of enemy they were dealing with here. That she was powerful enough to consume such a vast number would put whatever this entity was on the scale comparable to her own kind. Very interesting.]

Do you know what manner of voices they were? Mental? Audible? Spiritual? This may be important later, so please be specific.

[As with a few of the others, when Kreu pops up on the scrolls, her student can only stare for a few moments...]

M-Miss Kreutzer! Y-you're alive!

In a manner of speaking, yes.

(She's still dead, but at least she's not...dead dead? Super dead? Undead? There really should be a word for double dead.)

I'm sorry for worrying you, Nephenee. I know my actions were foolish...

[~~She's only half-dead, not all dead. If she were all dead, all we could do is look through her pockets for loose change.~~ She's alive enough for their purposes! Neph shakes her head almost frantically.]

Never mind that! Where are ya?

We should talk when ya got a moment.

Not. Here.

Mm. I don't know if I can contribute much, but I'll do what I can.

I'm outside of Quills and Sofas, though I'll likely be leaving soon. I feel too...uneasy about being outside.

I don' care how much ya can contribute. I want ta know that yer okay.

I'll be right there.

[ She flies down out of the sky a couple of minutes later, coming to rest in front of the other pony. ]
