In the distant future, Silver is partaking in a war to liberate West Equestria. In a far off land, Amber is running for freedom.

The right corner is the opposite direction that Silver initially saw the drones. Going down the hallway right from the stairs has another elevator bank with two elevators with brass doors, and then the hallway turns another corner right. On that wall, Silver can see two opaque glass doors with rough texture and names in white letters written on them, evidently some sort of company. Silver sees no signs of life in this way as the lights are on in the hallway, but no light comes through the doors.

Clash
The windows break open, and with a few more hits, Silver can see inside, or even unlock and open the doors. Silver sees a small reception area with a desk, and a hallway that has a couple offices, both with windows allowing some view inside. The offices appear to be in the condition they were left in when they were locked up the night before, with all lights off, and only a little natural sunlight from distant windows coming in.

The locks have a manual lock that allows them to be locked from the inside, and a key lock that allows them to be locked from the outside. No dead bolts are used, although the one by the hallway seems to have one.

Crash

It appears to be an approximately similar situation, with a conference room in the front on the left, and some open desks on the right, with Silver seeing windows letting in light from the rising sun on the far right.

Silver goes past the conference room, and past the set of desks, towards an office in the back that has the blinds on most of the windows down. At first he doesn't see it, as a bookshelf, the position of the office away from the rising sun, as well as the closed blinds, cause the interior of the room to be darker than say, the desks in the open area next to the east-facing windows. But there it is: behind a desk with papers and an open bottle, Silver can see what seems to be not one, but two ponies, crouching down on a couch.

Laying on the couch and in front is a tan colored Pegasus mare with a black mane, let down and somewhat disheveled. She turns her head quickly towards Silver, and looks at him with wide, green eyes. She immediately starts to get up off of the couch, and starts to move towards Silver.

“Hostages?! What?” She’s definitely startled. The other pony is a white unicorn stallion. He seems to be laying down asleep.

The mare already looks frightened, but she’s even more so as Silver says that
“I’d that what that banging was?!”

The stallion opens his eyes and thrusts his head upwards, looking around.
“What time is it? What are you doing here? It’s supposed to be a holiday.”

The mare adds
“Heh do you have guns?”

The stallion’s dress shirt is completely unbuttoned and disheveled. He attempts to button it up as he sits up. He smells like Apple Whiskey.
“We were just working over the weekend.”

The mare volunteers,
“To catch up on paperwork while elective surgeries are all cancelled.”
She too, starts to put on a shirt, taking a black shirt off of a chair near the couch.

She too smells of alcohol, though not so strongly that Silver can identify the brand.

If the officer moves to the other side, would Amber be plainly visible? Or could Amber move around the sheep to remain undetected?

The officer is making his passes by moving to the side of the hall away from the stall, and peering in. The officer has already inspected Amber’s stall, and Amber had thus far evaded detection by hiding closely behind a sheep. The officer has moved on to a stall across the central hallway, meaning that he is close to Amber’s stall, by the divider between Amber’s stall and the stall on the left.

>>164568
The mare is stunned
“What… war? Those really were gunshots?”

The stallion rolls over and stands up besides the couch. Or rather, he attempts to. In actuality, he miscalculates where his leg goes, and he stumbles and falls down, placing a hoof on the chair next to the couch to try to stand himself up.

“What?! It’s supposed to be a holiday.” And then as he stands up, “This is my office, it’s okay for me to be here.”

Silver looks at the stallion, but addresses both of the ponies.

"Dark Star has called for mandatory evacuation of city, and this is active combat zone. I need both of you to stay here in this room and keep out of sight until we have cleared building of hostiles, then we will come back for you, call for evac, and get all of you out of here."

Amber braces herself, for she is trapped in a desperate situation. But it is better to take initiative while she can and gain the upper hoof–or claw, in this case. While the officer is distracted she vaults the railing and attempts to land an attack.

The stallion isn’t quite able to stand on all fours, but with one hoof on the couch he stabilized himself. He looks over at Silver with giant, wide eyes.

“Uh, whatever you say” he says

The mare is also stunned, and leans against the chair, her eyes wide open

“Okay…”

>>164581
And….. she misses.

The officer strikes back, though it’s hard to say with what, exactly.
