Orange turned to the guard who spoke out about her charge being gone and quickly closed the gap between him and her. Her face was now even further seething with anger than before. She didn't take being spoken to by her subject or her 'kind' well. "Do you think I have lost her? I know exactly where that damned Pegasus went. She is broken and near useless to the queen always. As for you watch your damn tongue before I rip it from your skull and feed it to that nice dragon over there"
Her eyes quickly darted towards the gate and the Dragon, there was little she could do the help defeat it in all honesty. Though it didn't help that she was fighting every urge to run away from all these damned others. She never liked any other kind of pony, before she was a halfling. Now she just resented them all more.

Noble turned to Orange and gave her a single look. "If you know where she is, then go and find her instead of standing here and threatening a guard who has had a rough enough time already. If she's that useless, why are you in charge of her?" He asked, ready to draw his blade if she got violent. This was what he hated about his former station. Thinking you can get away with anything by threatening and bullying, and the end of the war stripped away his former pride and arrogance. And now, after they just finished stopping the city from burning, this Glow mare threatens a guard coordinating this? Not if he had anything to say about it.

Max turned to the guard addressing him he would shoutout "Which prisoner are you referring to?" Mathew was very much clueless on who were in cells and who wasn't, what really was important was everyponies safety. Just as he was dusting off his fur he saw orange take off after another pony. Max roles his eyes, he still didn't understand what the hell she was going on about, but if she was going to get roast so be it.
Max began to search through debris to find any trapped survivors. "Lord knows how many souls have been lost this day. Let's make sure no others are lost in this rubble."

Himmel turned towards the griffon, a rather cock smile playing on such a childish face. "Thats what my teacher aways says for me to say." He said with so much conviction, especially from one as small and young as him. "I don't want to have to kill it but I will if I need to. Especially after all of this he's done." The colt gestured towards the ruined buildings.

Having one ear turned to the commotion behind him, Vaan knew the situation could potentially fall apart. He didn't know why, but he knew he didn't want to be around when the main actors sliced each other.(Though he had no doubt it would be amazing to watch.) His other ear andboth eyes were placed onto the young colt about to finish his Quest. Well, suicide mission. He felt some spunk in the child he hadn't felt since before the war; it brought back memories of his younger days and a smile to his beak. That fire in the kid should be left burning and not stomped out by the foot of a giant lizard.
"Alright...let's ditch this place. I rather be surrounded by fire than watch the mess about to unfold here," Vaan spoke as he put the last set of bolts in his crossbow, "Besides, I know I can't stop you...morally anyway, so I'll watch your back. Queen's orders. Besides, there might be some valuable stuff in the wreckage."

Flaring his small curved horn to life, light blue pupils glared in response. Examining the halflings details for flaws, her body structure sickened him. "I dont have words for such a disgraceful poor creature such as yourself. You were assigned to baby sit, because its the simpliest job on the force. It was something her majesty thought even you couldn't buck up. And look at you now, disappointing her." Stomping his hoof and turning to Max, the soldier begun to simmer down. Not worth his time, the changeling trotted to his position. "Sir.. report. The flames are illuminated. Request to proceed to the healing center." Looking to Noble, the changeling nodded at his request. "If you would like to learn, so be it. Not many of us know the art of healing."

The colt squeaked as his ears perked up at the older ponies yelling. He turned to face the adults his brain working over time. He looked towards the palace, seeing the dragon was being delta with. As much as he wanted to make sure the job got done right, he couldn't leave when a pony went missing. He didn't want any pony to get in trouble, especially with a queen being the one who could deal out any punishment. "Let's go see if we can help her Mr. If a pony is lost I can't leave them in trouble."

Max looked back at the clearly not happy Guard and gave a slight nod. "Yes proceed to the healing center; make sure everything is alright" Mathews' war-torn ears perked up then turned his attention to Vaan "You would steal from those who have suffered greatly! You are the worst of scum!" Max looked very mad at what came from the griffons' beak. Clayton started to move towards the possible Looter.

Orange sheathing anger began to subside as she soon began to dean the guard not worthy of her time. She decided to completely ignore him after he made fun of her. She cast Max a glance and spoke after a soft sigh. "Plush Ramen, but she is far from her glory days. Her will is broken, her resolve gone. All the mare seems to want to do now is run like a scared foal. I don't know what my Mother sees in her that makes her think she is worthy of any kind of fight. Though I guess it'll be pretty fun watching her get skewered after all she did to me."

Shaking his head, the soldier looked to the sky. Medical assistance was needed! Turning to Noble with a firm nod, the changeling galloped through the main streets leftover chaos. Leaving everything behind, if the stallion wished to follow, he had better catch up. Launching himself to the rehabilitation center, the guard had left their field of vision.

"I don't know, kid...it seems like whoever the pony is, she doesn't want to be found," Vaan said, trying to stay away from the squabble the group was having, "Also, the name is Vaan. I'm too young to be called Mr."
He was waiting for a response from the colt while they walked towards the group ,but another pony's voice caught his attention. Vaan gazed at the stallion. He truly did not know what to make of him. His personality shifted into something else from when he saw him earlier. The griffon didn't know how he changed, but one thing was certain: he did not want to be close to him .Though, that did not matter at the moment. What did matter was the fact the griffon's previous words had been caught by the ears of the pony, and he seemed to have some power over the guards.
"Scum? I haven't heard that word since I was in Manehatten..." Vaan whispered to himself, tasting more blood in his mouth. He looked at at the stallion before explaining," Yes, I would steal and I have stolen from ponies like them. You know why? These ponies are more thankful to have their lives than their possessions. So, if I come by and take whatever happens to be lying about ,no one's getting harmed. They'll think the fire burned the missing items ,and I get some food in my stomach. No harm; no foul. Besides, I was only joking this time. I'm here to make sure this brave hero stays alive...more or less."

Noble galloped after the changeling, hoping he had enough of a theoretical understanding of how his magic worked recently to pull off what he said. But he could seal magic into a crystal and trigger a healing spell that way. If it meant helping ponies, it was worth a shot.

The colt paused, not quite listening to Vaan as his focus was upon Orange Glow, thier words ringing though his ears.
"What do you mean by that? Watching a pony die would be funny?"

Orange looked to the little colt and glared. He was little he didn't know the pain she held from that mare. She walked up to him and looked him in the eye.
"It wouldn't be funny so much as just. You see, that mare scared me permanentry and turned me into the freak I am today. If it weren't for her I might still just be a pony instead of a disgrace to both species. Instead of looking like this!" Orange turned into her seldom used true halfing form. Part pony part changeling. She looked like most ponies, but was still riveted with the holes that changelings have. Her eyes much more incesect like, yet still retaining their glow.

It was the flash that started the colt at first, but he would stand unafraid as he looked upon the mare. He had never seen a pony quite like her, and indeed it was quite...interesting.
"I don't think you look like a freak." Himmel said with a wide smile. "Besides, I saw you out there doing your best to protect and help others. Anypony who judges you on the outside instead of here," He said, pressing his hoof againts her chest. "Is the real bad pony in my eyes."

Turning his attention towards the other two, Vaan couldn't help, but become shocked by what he had seen. It was a weird mix of pony and changeling. Truly wasn't something one would not see everyday, but seeing someone crush by falling rubble was worse. Still, having to survive as a mix between the two had to be some tough living.
The griffin then listen to the words of the small colt. The young Pony still had his innocence about him, which reminded the bird of his own daughter. Something tugged at his emotions, yet those were quickly brushed aside. With his regained composure, he listened to the two speak as he wiped his blood off the corner of his beak.

[Enter Strong Defense]
Walking onto the main street, Strong prepared himself for a long search. Soon spotting the half changeling he shrugged at how little time it had actually taken to track her down.
"That was easy."
Walking up to Orange Glow and give little bow. "You are the Queen's daughter Orange Glow, yes? If so please follow me. The Queen's has ask for your presence."

Orange looked at the little colt with his out stretched hoof to her chest, if it had been any other pony or changeling she likely would have scalded them. Though there was something about the innocence of this little colt that brought a little light to her heart. His words were true and she knew it, though if she were to be honest with herself she knew it was going to be harder than that to keep a happy demeanor despite the actions and thoughts of the others. It was nice to know somepony else finally gave the mare a second thought, rather than just judging her and calling her evil or a disgrace. She smiled to the little colt and gently pet his mane for a moment. "Thank you little one"
Orange noticed the new advancing pony shortly after her heartfelt moment. Though she hardly recognized him she knew he was a part of her mother's loyal army. She took notice of his actions when he approached her, no hesitation and he wasn't berating her. Which was certainly welcomed, rather than being bitched at on sight. After a brief moment she spoke up, "There is no need to bow to me, I'm nothing special. Do you know why she wants me? I'd like to know what I'm stepping in before I arrive, usually helps around her."
For a brief moment she had forgotten about her charge, though it quickly returned to the back of her mind at her own mention of her mother. Though while she felt some tangent of guilt for letting her 'escape' she wasn't that worried. She knew the mare was likely returning to her cell due to her own self righteous nature to atone for her prior sins.

The colt blushed a deep red at the pet, but puffed his chest out proudly at being praised. It is a hero's job to make ponies feel better.
The colt would soon notice the stallion as he approached. The mentioning of a queen got him thinking a bit as well. Turing towards Vaan, he would pose a rather innocent sounding question.
"The queen...isn't that the one who said to come and get me?" He asked with a raised eyebrow. Such a question posed another in the back of his own mind. 'Just who is this queen anyway. She must be super nice to care about some random colt. Guess thier are good ponies in this world.

"Yeah. Long story short: somepony told me you were taking on that beast yourself, so I told Chyrsi... the Queen. She then put it in my hands ,and you know the rest," Vaan replied. He thought about his short time with the Queen and recalled a memory that happened only hours ago, "Just don't get on her bad side..."
Noticing how quiet it had gotten and the stallion approaching, the griffin knew the dragon must have been taken care of. The city would spend some He'd probably have to get his claws on the next day's newspaper to get a confirmation. He'd hope some type of celebration would happen;free food and drink were the best.

Nodding to Vaan and Himmel. "If you two have business with the Queen she should be in the throne room for the rest of the day." Strong didn't know that, but him felt it likely. Turning back to Orange glow, Strong looked her over before speaking.
"At some point I would like to have the opportunity study you. I think looking over your anatomy would greatly help with reworking some of my spells for changelings. That aside for now are you ready to go? Chrysalis is waiting and I don't know why she wants to see you, but I don't like leaving her alone with Sombra."

Himmel's eyes widened by surprise at the stallion's words. Sombra...Sombra was here in this city meeting the queen. His target his master had told him to defeat was now within reach.
It was just too soon. Wasn't it?
Despite his strength he was unable to take down a simple dragon, and Sombra was suppose to be way stronger then that. The colt had to keep himself from hyperventilating, placeing a hoof on his chest. He couldn't fight Sombra now...not with how injured he was. He knew it was just his own willpower thst was stopping him from falling from his wounded side. For now, he needed to get his things and rest...but first he had to see for himself just how strong Sombra is.
"I want to meet the queen, I'd that is alright with you." He said as he gently clutched his bleeding side. "Maybe get new dressings for my wound...and I need to get my bag from outside of Canterlot."

"Oh great the great King Sombra is here" Orange sighed and rolled her eyes.
Orange herself hadn't had much history with the dark stallion. Truth be told the only history she shared with Sombra was watching him from afar during the war. He likely didn't even know she existed, after all they had only formally met once. It also didn't help that he hated changelings with all his being, she could only imagine how he must feel about the halfling mare whom happened to be the direct descendant of the queen.
She looked back to Strong, the pony whom she somewhat knew, but didn't quite know of his name. "Alright lets get going to see my Mother, we don't want to keep her royal highness waiting."

Seeing as the colt seemed to be holding himself together even with the wound, Strong mostly ignored him. Making his way back to the back to the palace now that he had the halfling in toe. It suddenly hit Strong at he had not given the mare his name. Turning and smirk at Orange.
"Oh where are my manners? I've not given you my name. I'm Strong Defense and as of recently... I now make up the entirety of your mother's new personal guard. She has never been in safer hooves."
Saying all of this with the confidence only his unique abilities and military lineage could impart, Strong turned and walked on.

Sombra was a name Vaan heard sprinkled around during his five years of smuggling. He often heard it accompanied by wicked tales of war. Though,he was sure none of them were true or at least they were stretched beyond the truth. No one could be as bad as what he heard. If they were, he wouldn't be comfortable with his Queen around them.
Coughing into his scarf and wiping the blood from his beak, Vaan spoke to Himmel, "Well, if you're going to the Queen, I guess my job is almost over. I tag along to see her and show you're still alive. After that, the medical ward...and maybe a place for a drink."
