Over the hill and in the distance, lights move upwards in strings in the twilight as the destroyer evidently fires its ant-aircraft guns at unknown targets. Much more closely, the fire team moves to enter the lighthouse. They can be heard speaking to each other in low, foreign voices.

Then a grenade is lobbed. Then another. Then another. And then one more.

One Spetsnaz soldier yells,
"Восточная сторона холма!"

But none on the ridgeline make it to the ground before the grenade goes off. The smoke grenade follows quickly, but the slow pace of the smoke combined with the placement of the grenade in the group rather than upwind means that it isn't especially effective.

Down the slope on the other side, "Граната!" is yelled, followed by a bang, followed by a number of bullets. They couldn't possibly be aiming anywhere near the party.

A couple spetsnaz soldiers on the ridge line fire shots towards the party, but not with the greatest effect, dazed but at least vaguely aware of the location of the party.

Silver helps support the bat as they're galloping away if he needs to. With his rifle levitating in his magical grasp, Silver looks back and fires it on the run at the Spetsnaz soldiers shooting at them, though he's not really expecting it to hit and it's more to try to keep them pinned down.

Silver's shot is well aimed and hits, or seems to. With the advancing seconds, the smoke coming from the grenade increases, and though more shots are heard, none seem to come close to the group. The group is given more time to move away, but the soldiers seem to know where they are.

Ahead, Mala and the other ponies see the party running towards them.

Silver calls out both to the retreating group and Mala's group, "Zig zag! Squad, we need covering fire until we make it to safety!"

Silver adjusts the course of the group to bob and weave back and forth, ensuring that they are just that much harder to hit, even if it lengthens their path by just a bit.

More shots come out from on the hill and below it. But the soldiers seem uninterested in advancing towards the party, and their aim is not well - they don't seem to want to leave cover, nor the smoke. The party makes it to hill, where Mala is ready to move.

Star Fire looks up towards Silver with his bespectacled, green eyes. He swallows, then answers,

"Всё это... Это довольно много. Но надежда заключается в том, что мы сможем выбраться отсюда. Я с нетерпением жду этого."

The green unicorn's eyes open wider, he takes a step back, and

Posey presumably gallops ahead of the group, which cannot gallop as there are many, many ponies who cannot move under their own power and must be pulled by the other ponies.

There is no clear danger ahead, or at least, none that gives off noise. Fog trickles along the water but has not made it to land. Behind the group, there are the sounds of explosions. A great one, then another great one. The top of the big lighthouse slides off and falls onto the slope, coming apart with many concrete bricks and spreading across the hillside. Something, probably a piece of broken glass, falls from the sky near the party, hundreds of yards from the lighthouse.

Next Tour's ears go back, then come back up

"Well, uh... That they are a set of mysterious pony like monster hybrid creatures that live in Southeastern Zebrica and menace or lord over the Zebra and the Kirin there. And sometimes the camels..."

Star Fire moves his head a little away, and briefly smiles showing teeth. He moves his eyes down towards the ground and his right ear (away from Silver) moves down and to the side before coming back up.

"Я, эм, предпочел бы держаться подальше от этого корабля, если уж говорить по правде. Душ был бы неплох, но мне хочется поспать."

Between the rocky shore and the base of the hill, Posey sees the trash heap of bones and the northern most wooden structure of the derelict sealing station.

In the leeward of the structure, Posey thinks she sees a figure standing in the long shadow. A quadraped a little smaller than a pony, facing her. Or she thinks she sees that, anyways. Hard to tell.

Kira tilts her head, and seems to consider this information from Next Tour. "Well, that's kinda true, I suppose. A long time ago, the zebra chiefs from the surrounding tribes would hire lamias to their warbands in exchange for money, land, property, and titles, but that all gradually came to an end as the Zeblu basically wiped out all of the zebra tribes in the region outside of the Roamans and the Zongo. Us savannah lamias don't have much interaction with kirins outside of the occasional traveler or merchant wanting to trade for our goods, and camels are just a bit too distant for us to have interactions with either. I know that fire lamias live down in Zaikiria, and the desert lamias nomadic routes cross into camel lands at times."

Silver gives Star Fire a gentle squeeze/hug and a pat on the shoulder. "Что ж, мы не можем позволить Путешественнику сбежать с острова, иначе это безумие распространится на материк. А «Кострома» — достаточно большой корабль, чтобы доставить нас всех в безопасное место под покровом ночи и тумана." Half-lidding his eyes at Star Fire, Silver's tone of voice changes ever so subtly to be just a bit quieter and more intimate. "Кроме того, после того как мы добьемся успеха, нам предстоит совершить еще несколько интересных «действий», прежде чем мы ляжем спать." With this new tone of voice, it's hard to tell if Silver is speaking straight or if he's trying to imply something.

Posey moves along the waterline. She mostly succeeds in trotting along the grassy mud which is comparatively quiet, but her mass of various items carried jingles slightly. strangely she hasn't heard her coins cling very much.

The shadow is no longer visible. This may be because an illusion is no longer visible as she comes closer, but she's pretty sure she saw it move away.

Silver's hoof reaches for Star Fire's mane of seemingly its own volition, to see how it feels as he continues his conversation. "Созданию Поузи можно приказать протаранить их корабль, посадив его на мель на острове, не причинив вреда экипажу и не помешав им преследовать нас.

D'awwwww. Even as tired and disheveled as he is at the moment, Star Fire still looks adorable making that face, which makes Silver wonder what other kinds of adorable faces he could get him to make as the ear scritches move down into cheek and chin scritches. "Ну, не оставайся слишком далеко. Я бы хотел, чтобы ты был рядом, когда мы отпразднуем победу."

Kira sings a stealthy tune inside her own head, something along the lines of "duh, duh, duh duh; duh duh, duh duh; do do doooo, do do doooo, do do doooo, do do". Where she heard this tune if anywhere she doesn't know, but what she does know is that she's entered sneaky snek mode as she follows the path the figure took or even possibly left behind.
