Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where the Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures because of their encounters with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestrian Southeast, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and corrupt creepy politicians threaten the city. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.
The long train ride from Baltimare to Bales has been interrupted by a group of partisan fighters, claiming to be looking for none other than Pinkie Pie, who has been kept prisoner since the end of the war. They don't seem to have found their prize, but they do seem to have found a very pissed off Brie, Onyx, and Spark, as well as another Bat Pony, and both groups have been interrupted by a new set of intruders. In Baltimare, Silver, Dark Star, and Iron await a new and uncertain dawn.

Here's hoping we can actually hit Day 6 in this thread. Also hoping the train gang returns so we can actually finish that encounter and move onto the next day.

Thinking about it, honestly, but I really don't want to completely desync with the timeline. It's happened once already, and it's hell.

What if we do everything for day 6? We would be here yet again, now having to wait the train fellows for a day and then some.

A different postal worker answers. The further away postal worker, a jade green Pegasus answers now
“We don’t know. We just know there have been attempts to break into this car.”
Then the Midnight blue bat, Ozren, gives his own answer
“I intend to find out”

"But you haven't tried going into the engine? Fuckin' n0obs." He says, frogging a pair of daggers (he's down to 8 or 9, depending on if the one pony got a knife to the face). "Have you tried knocking?"

The jade postal worker moves aside, because it looks like Brie is not, in fact, the least patient bat in the room. Ozren moves to the door, twists a knob on it, pulls a lever down, then pulls the door in.
Through the open door Brie can see that this gap between the RPO and the locomotive does not have a cover connecting the cars, like the other gaps between cars. It is exposed to the outside. Ozren looks over.
“Is this other door locked?”

It does not appear to be tampered with, but....
From above, a pony drops down onto the coupling. A burgundy Pegasus. She is old looking, and has noticeable scars on her, including around her right eye, both eyes glowing gold. She is carrying, of all things, a sword, shorter in length and with a curve.

Wait, the train is stopped. Brie takes flight and tries to position himself (on top of the engine, if possible/necessary) to surround the pegasus.

Well, maybe. The door itself is narrow, as is the gap between the locomotive and the RPO, so taking flight would require basically already require getting to her side

Success. Brie rolls out through the door, under and besides Ozren, and off to the right of the Burgundy Pegasus, who is standing on the coupling. Brie falls off unto the rocks of the train tracks under the cars, and lands gracefully enough, placing him about a foot lower than the Pegasus, who is still aiming her sword at Ozren

The knife sticks into her side and draws blood. She moves a hoof to pull it out, and drops it on the ground.
Finding herself flanked by a pony with the ability to tumble out, and facing a reasonably skilled pony, plus two postal workers with shotguns, the old mare looks over to the side, and herself tries to tumble away, to the left.

She tries to pull back for the moment, rolling over the side. The door comes open at Brie’s efforts, and Ozren swings it open, trying to enter as quickly as possible.

"You're welcome! Sorry for the whole leg stabbing thing!" Brie calls as he rushes away.
He frogs another pair of daggers.

"Not getting cold feet are you? I don't suppose you could return those two? They're kind of sentimental." Brie taunts the pegasus, while drawing another pair. "I mean I have some more, but I am running low,..."

Fair enough
"I was trying to be nice. Would 'controllers' have been more accurate? Perhaps 'taskmasters'?" Brie says, retrieving the knife she threw back and otherwise disregarding the damage.

She half smiles at Brie, or rather, she raises her lips on the left side of her face as if in a smile.
“It’s Red Morning. And you can tell your friends.”

Keep in mind that unless she can see through illusions (which as a player I would wager she can, since she was introduced with glowing eyes) Brie still looks like a lime green unicorn.
"She says its Red Morning!" Brie shouts, then waits. "Hmmm, it seems they're as disinterested as I am."
Also keep in mind, Brie is deliberately trying to buy Ozren or whatever his name was, some time to get the engine going again

I recalled Brie removing the illusion altogether when he tried to reconcile with Snowflake, although I think maybe he added another illusion when he went to get the changelings? In any event, this particular Pegasus has not seen the lime green unicorn as she arrived after the the lime green unicorn was on the train. So unless Brie has partisan colors on...
So Brie is not going into the locomotive?
She narrows her eyes a little, then nods, as her eyes come up into a full toothy smile

I see.
Red Morning’s face realizes a full, malign smile. Behind Brie, there is a very loud
BOOM
Briefly, the area lights up to nearly as bright as day - or more accurately, as light as around a campfire - and the medium height grass, as well as the gravel around the tracks are fully visible, as is Morning’s faded burgundy coat. The light dies down quickly, and from somewhere behind Brie a smoking something (it looking like a can) is tossed over Brie’s head, hitting the slopes ground around the tracks and rolling down, maybe ten feet from Brie to his left and about the same distance away from Red Morning, a bit to her left and in front of her.
Red morning breaks off her stare, ducks her head down, then pulls her forehooves up around her head. Her wings spread forward around her face as well, as she pulls down.

The canister explodes in place, setting off a bright light and with a loud “BANG.” Another question, does Brie stay in place and dive down, dive to his right (the right of the train) or to his left (the left of the train)?

In retrospect, to the left wouldn’t have worked, because that’s where the flash bang landed
Brie dives out of the way, and avoids being blinded or deafened. He can see over here two more bandits, both pegasi, holding guns, and with attention most on the RPO, which has a noticeable hole blown into the right side of it. One of them tries to jump on and into the car.

Brie dives down to the left and towards the side of the locomotive (on the right side), laying on the railroad tracks. There’s some yelling, and the two Pegasi jump onto the RPO,m through the hole in its side. A few letters fly around in the air, and start to slowly come down. The scene is like this for another few seconds, when there is a loud
WOO
It unmistakably comes from the locomotive

Brie adjusts his disguise to appear like Red whats her name (I know, its not that far away, but I'm both not back-reading to see it and I'm trivializing her) and jumps up from his newly successful hiding spot that would have done him no good anyway. Concluding that Ozren has the engine going, he follows the 2 pegasi that jumped onto the RPO

The hole goes from a foot above the base to the very top of the RPO. There is broken wood and parts of steel containers on the floor. One of the postal workers is lying down on the ground, another cowers in the far corner, the other is not visible. The two Pegasi - one a cloudy white, the other a faded tan - talk to each other
“Safe is over here, it seems to be dislodged from the explosion.”
“I knew that was the right place.”
“Alright, now help me get this open”
The train starts to move, with a sort of jolt. Not fast at all, but the cars are starting to stretch the coupling between them
“Shit, it’s moving!”

I think I'll be available after 3 hours, roughly speaking. Not sure if the lake path is the needed calm time path and I'd want to get Iron in tiptop shape before travelling aka get the potion ready or start some more small talk.

Iron, giddy from curing his moderate to severe wounds, takes one full life bottle and chugs like no tomorrow.
He sighs in relief, turning to Cauldron.
