>>116530>>116531Jubiliosa appears confused but somewhat very relieved by Silver’s answer. That relief disappears when Dark Star speaks
>>116532"Do not worry about him. He is only very recent hire by Black Hooves, and they are not involved in this. This is just operation for local, civilian government."
>>116533“I have enough experience to know there is no such thing as ‘local government’ when it comes to the Colonists”
>>116534He shrugs. "Might be Equestria is different. I do not know, but they have kept out of most government business. Perhaps not for lack of trying, though."
>>116535“O-Kay?”
She says, relaxing and moving forward, but still looking worried
“I guess it wouldn’t be any different than it is for me now if you were...”
>>116536Silver uses his knife to cut her free from her tether. "You were trying to get into Aquieia, right?"
>>116539"I think we can arrange something for you if you help us out. Your side of story would help government in hammering last nail in coffin of those responsible."
>>116540She nods slowly, still untrusting
Fortunately, somepony trustworthy is around to help inspire confidence
The white unicorn speaks
“Allow me... Don’t worry, we have nothing to do with the Fascists. This one here is a bit... happy to have done something once he thought was cool. We are all either natives, refugees, or migrants. We are not of the Colonists, we have nothing to do with the colonists except sometimes receiving some help from them. We are here to stop a set of organized criminals. They were going to abuse you as they abused so many Others. And we are going to put an end to that forever”
She bates her teeth at the last part of that for emphasis, strangely holding up her lips as if she had fangs
>>116541>>116541I don’t know where every pony went
Well... Iron opened his way up into another room... odd shaped, no creature seems to be there
>>116542Life.Iron clips clops inside, exploring the room while his flashlight uncovers the darkness.
>>116542Silver nods, affirming her story.
>>116542dark star squints at the "Unicorn" again
>>116544>>116545The unicorn smiles and nods
“Yes, you could help us by providing information or even fighting. But I assure you we having nothing at all to do with the Colonist government.”
Jubliosa:
“Well... Perhaps...”
>>116546"That could be helpful i suppose."
>>116547The unicorn nods and smiles at Dark Star’s acknowledgement of how she’s helped
>>116548Dark Star still seems on edge around her but he slightly smiles at her.
>>116549Okay, so what is Dark Star trying to do now?
>>116550Can i roll another perception to find any hidden things?
>>116552OOF brb i ate some spicy gumbo and my intestines feel like they are being stabbed.
>>116554>>116553Door at the end, and some sort of door that looks most like a garbage chute
>>116556Back
Dark Star examines the Garbage chute.
>>116557For some reason, it’s either locked or rusted shut
>>116559It’s not budging. It should be worth mentioning that it’s a cast iron door with metal trim that slide upwards, approximately rectangular in shape
>>116560is there a keyhole?
>>116562"Maybe. come take a look."
>>116563>>116560Strength: [1d20+2 = 7] Silver comes over the the garbage chute door, and attempts to use his Earth Pony heritage to open the door.
>>116561You know what? Fuck it. The area opens to what looks like a small slender hallway with a door towards the end, and on the left something like a bread baking oven
>>116565anything inside the oven?
>>116565I'll assume this is for me.Iron walks over to the door, trying open the door in front of it.
>>116563Mala comes up to it, uncomfortable
“Let me see the keys”
>>116564It does not open
>>116567Iron is going to the door at the end of the hall?
>>116568Correct.
I want to see where it leads, then I'll check on the oven thing.
>>116568Silver doesn't understand why he's uncomfortable, but he does loan Mala the keys.
>>116566Dark Star does not see an oven
>>116572>>116570Mala sits down, breathing heavily and quickly, and with one paw holds the key ring while flicking through it in the other
>>116575in case anythings on the other side.
>>116576>>116570Mala is still messing with the keys, going back and forth
I'd like to leave my message after the beep.
>>116576>>116570A different door, however, opens over to their left
>>116578*beep*
Just in time
whispers >>116579Dark Star swivels towards that door.
>>116579So, what is the bat experiencing at the moment?
