Welcome back to thread number like 5 or 6 of Occupied Equestria, a My Little Pony RP based heavily upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and using the mechanics of D&D 3.5, and set in South-East Equestria after it has been conquered and split between the Changelings and a foreign fascist power
Onyx is cleaning glasses, Spark has secured a contract to clear a quarry of Zombies for a real estate developer, Silver is eating meat, Ash and Iron are trying to raid what they believe to be a gangster's den, and Dark Star is holding hooves.

>>75252The dog follows after her, keeping his distance but not letting her get more than 60 feet away.
Ash walks just a bit closer to the colt.
".. Are you afraid?"
>>75257REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
NO SCARE THE KIDS!!!
>>75259>No scare kids>Filly running off already is already scaredNo change of emotion there.
>>75257>>75258Well shit, it looks like he caught her and has her in the air. She will do nicely for Mar
>>75259This colt, like the other three in the room, is laying on his stomach with his head down, and ears lying back shaking
>>75261Iron pants a bit, clearly annoyed by the filly's antics. Iron looks at Ash "I hope these children do not act so scared for nothing. Next time, I deal with the adults, you go for the children."
>>75263*Iron returns to the other children and looks at Ash
[1d20+2 = 19]>>75262The rust colored earth pony colt can be felt shaking under her hoof
>>75263You need to roll for grapple, because fillie is rolling for escape.
>>75247>>75255"Wait cabby, take us to the tailor first we need to speak to him before we go to the quarry."
>>75265She picks up the poner and Pat's his back
"...Shhhhhhhhhhhh... It'll be alright.."
>>75269He's... a little calmed
>>75266She has failed to escape thus far. The corn harvest will be good this year
>>75268Alright, a couple things. First off, any physical armor Spark wears will cause him to have a chance of messing up his spells (he can wear magic rings though). Second, Dark Star has not exchanged his gold bar for bits yet, so he only has the bits he started with
>>75270Where did this sacrifice idea come from anyway?
She places the colt on her back and (very) slowly treads over towards the other colts.
".. Are you all okay?"
[1d20+7 = 19]>>75270Iron is further annoyed by the stubborness of the filly. "Listen, if you want me to discipline you, I can. Do not test me." Iron whispers to the filly.
>>75273"... Please just put her down.. She's not going to get very far on her own anyway.."
>>75270>>75271It'd be kinda funny if Star only realized that too late.
Also, I think we need to wait for Spark to get back.
>>75274"I don't think so," Iron tells to Ash. "This filly thinks you are cultist. She will run really far if we let her."
>>75275we could wait for him at the tailor
[1d20+3 = 8]>>75273Rolling against her will not to become a sacrifice
>>75272Well, Iron told her that he was gathering the fillies for a mare who "would take them to some religious building," and the universe I am basing this on has religious sacrifices as a thing (in non-pony lands)
>>75275You have a point there, it's probably best that I let players make mistakes rather than telling them before they do
>>75273>>75280The cream colored pegasus filly's ears droop, her wings fall down to her side, and she submits to her fate
>>75281Iron nods. "Thank you. Ash will treat you well. Do not worry."
>>75280Didn't they come from an orphanage?
Also, do the other foals respond?
>>75276"Just let her go. She'll tire herself out anyway, and we can't just drag her kicking and screaming all the way to the orphanage."
>>75283Iron looks at the filly and shakes his head. "I do not trust her enough to have rational thoughts at the moment. I will just carry her to the place we are supposed to drop them off."
>>75285"She'll only run away. Let her go."
>>75287Iron does not budge. "Running away in a place like this would lead her to worse fates than simply being carried around. Do you want her to get shot or worse, kidnapped again?"
>>75283Nuns don't typically wear steel plate or have shields of steel, and nuns also don't have scalely backs or antler-like horns. But a foreign witch with a hired mercenary? Now she just might. One of them seemed to believe her, and three did not evidently.
At this moment, all of them are cowing and submissive. At least one has peed on the floor. The sixth colt just gave a "hiss!" at Iron, and continued to cling demandingly to Ash
>>75289Iron disregards the hiss. 'At least he is not running away' he thinks.
>>75289>shields of steelJust fyi, it's a wooden shield, handmade. I'm actually prohibited from carrying any metal shields at all.
Also she would have dropped it by now, since she doesn't need it anymore.
Sister Ash pets the colt with her magick as she slowly steps over to the others.
".. come on now.. There's no need to fret.."
>>75288"I didn't intend to let her out of my sight.." she says softly, referring to the dog, which is standing by
She'll be fine.
>>75291Iron is unconvinced. "You think a wolf will give the filly safety and not make her run away even further, make her do even more extremely erratic decisions? Give it a rest. I will carry her."
>>75292Sister Ash sighs in response
"... Just don't marehandle her too much..."
>>75291Iron has a steel shield and Ash has a giant attack dog
He's calmed down a little more. The sixth colt seems to be jealous. The other three are definitely cowing
>>75293Iron nods. "Whenever you are ready, we move out. Lead the way. I will tail the remaining colts from behind. Just in case anyone else decides to be irrational." Iron stands by, ready to move.
>>75295The foals' ears raise at that. They have heard Iron's threat
>>75295"This could take quite a while." Ash replies, sternly but softly
"Either way, you're going to have to put her down once we're outside eventually."
>>75294Sister Ash kneels down between the colts (away from the pee), and lays there between them for several minutes
>>75297Iron looks at the foals. "If you do not act like this filly, then you have nothing to worry about."
>>75298Iron shrugs. "Alright. I guess I can wait."
>>75300At that first statement, she snaps at him (softly)
"Shush..!"
>>75298This gesture of solidarity reassures them, even as Iron's threat does not. These foals are older, and so more mature
>>75300They understand the threat
>>75297Dark Star Start Day Dreaming About Blue
>>75302"Would you like to come back with me?" She asks soltly, after some time
>>75301>>75302Iron nods. He then remains silent.
>>75304So, what's going to be Ash's plan for freeing the foals that have been already sold?
>>75303She flies down from Yellow Mountain
O'er a dark, flat land she glides
With a fellow agent named Wildfire
And a whirlwind by her side
>>75304"W-Where are you taking us?" one asks
>>75307>>75303*On a cold Neighbraska night
