Matlina stopped dead and glanced up at him. "Fine, but I'm going out to scout the area," She said still looking at him, as if waiting for his permission.
Acqua snorted, but followed at what he thought was ’staying out of her way’ distance. ”I hope your friends heal well. Esspecially mentally. Mental scars ar ethe worst kind there are,” he said, his head drooping ever so slightly. ”I should know.”
Matlina pinned her ears. "Oh hopefully they do heal. I have too many mental scars to count. You don't want to be me," She said, her eyes reflecting her bad memories within her 2 years of life.
Acqua shook his head. ”I don’t think I could ever be like you... You’re brave and strong, and I...’ He trailed off, hating to put his miserable life into words.
Matlina twisted her ears. "Yeah don't say anything more. I can recognize tormented souls without even saying anything. Just know that talking about it might make you feel better.... I just don't think it would work with me," She said looking out at the horizon.
-he chuckled, seeing his minions, but one was gone- Red... ARG! -he kept Isolda and Crispleaf in the shield, narrowing his eyes- I can't move on if I keep losing subjects.. this needs a change of plans. -studies everyone's powers, strengths, and weaknesses- Maybe mentally.
Colesha: -feels dizzy, the vision swirled before, and his words quickened, she couldn't make out what was he saying, she rocketted back and forth and a trap door opened under her hooves- AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH -she fell into the abyss, squirming. She landed with a thud, seeing further into the future, all the pegasi of Anok, being burned by her own friends, and herself. She saw slaves, similar to what nightwing had done to them all. She saw fire, fire, death, misery, slavery, fear she fell into the abyss again, this time seeing into the past. Hermon as foal, as happy as he could be.-
Acqua looked at her directly. ”If you think it would help me, it would probably help you too. In fact, you go first.” When she started to argue, he said in a pleading whisper, ”Please?”
Matlina shut her muzzle and sighed. "Where do I start... From the moment I was born, my parents left me in the forest. Luckily, I was smart to find my way to my herd and was an outcast," She said.
Acqua nodded. ”It was the same for me, but I was too stupid to think to find other pegasi. So I stayed at Crabwing’s Bay where my parents left me. Before they left me there, they called me a dumb freak who didn’t know what normal was. They hated me.” A tear slipped from his eye, then another.
Over-stallion: What on earth? AH! STOP WHAT YOUR DOING AT ONCE BEFORE YOU INJURE SOMEONE!
Hermon: -looks at them- Oh.. sorry.. -tries to stop- I.. I CANT STOP! D: -looks at them, accidently shooting fire at them, burning his friends and the over-stallion to shreds-
Pegasi: AAAAAH!!!!!!! -stampedes, some guards strangling him-
Hermon: -cries- MAMA!!! -as the guard's attempted to choke him-
Matlina glanced at him and looked straight up. "If I had to choose between family and nothing, I would always choose nothing. I can't have a family with walls... And they always end up leaving, dying, or becoming scared at me and then I run away," SHe said, blue flowers growing up around her.
Colesha: -sees herself through Hermon's eyes, being beaten like that, it reminded her of herself- Wait! He didn't mean it! -of course, it was a vision, so they didn't hear or see her-
Last Comment: Acqua caught up with her. ”Matlina, we can’t leave yet. One or two of your friends are still too injured to be moved.”
Matlina stopped dead and glanced up at him. "Fine, but I'm going out to scout the area," She said still looking at him, as if waiting for his permission.
Acqua shrugged, feeling a bit flattered she’s wait for his approval. ”Okay, that’s fine. Want me to go wit you?” he asked.
Matlina twisted her ears. "just... Stay out of my way," SHe said with a smirk and trotted out of the cave.
Acqua snorted, but followed at what he thought was ’staying out of her way’ distance. ”I hope your friends heal well. Esspecially mentally. Mental scars ar ethe worst kind there are,” he said, his head drooping ever so slightly. ”I should know.”
Matlina pinned her ears. "Oh hopefully they do heal. I have too many mental scars to count. You don't want to be me," She said, her eyes reflecting her bad memories within her 2 years of life.
(Awww, poor Matty :’( That’s so sad...)
Acqua shook his head. ”I don’t think I could ever be like you... You’re brave and strong, and I...’ He trailed off, hating to put his miserable life into words.
Matlina twisted her ears. "Yeah don't say anything more. I can recognize tormented souls without even saying anything. Just know that talking about it might make you feel better.... I just don't think it would work with me," She said looking out at the horizon.
Red: -flies out- Where's Crispleaf?
Colesha: -flinches in her visions- Oh no... -she got up, afraid to have another vision.-
Hermon: -checks off his list-
-he chuckled, seeing his minions, but one was gone- Red... ARG! -he kept Isolda and Crispleaf in the shield, narrowing his eyes- I can't move on if I keep losing subjects.. this needs a change of plans. -studies everyone's powers, strengths, and weaknesses- Maybe mentally.

Crispleaf narrowed his eyes. "Oh you are just gonna keep losing them buddy," He insulted.
Acqua looked at her directly. ”If you think it would help me, it would probably help you too. In fact, you go first.” When she started to argue, he said in a pleading whisper, ”Please?”
(oops was supposed to italize that, that was in a vision XD)
Matlina shut her muzzle and sighed. "Where do I start... From the moment I was born, my parents left me in the forest. Luckily, I was smart to find my way to my herd and was an outcast," She said.
Hermosa gasped at the rush of thoughts coming from her friend. She took hold of her shoulders and shook them. ”COLESHA! Wake up!”
Nowaka startled at the scream. "What's going on?"
Colesha: -she opened her eyes, occasionally they were flashing a plasma purple, she was half conscious-
Hermon: hey guys wanna see something awesome? :D
Foals: Sure! c:
Hermon: -shots fire in the air,creating fireworks-
Foals: AAAAAH -runs away-
Hermon: See? Awesome ri- ....guys..? :c
Acqua nodded. ”It was the same for me, but I was too stupid to think to find other pegasi. So I stayed at Crabwing’s Bay where my parents left me. Before they left me there, they called me a dumb freak who didn’t know what normal was. They hated me.” A tear slipped from his eye, then another.
Colesha:
Foals: Monster monster! AAAAH!
Hermon: Huh?
Over-stallion: What on earth? AH! STOP WHAT YOUR DOING AT ONCE BEFORE YOU INJURE SOMEONE!
Hermon: -looks at them- Oh.. sorry.. -tries to stop- I.. I CANT STOP! D: -looks at them, accidently shooting fire at them, burning his friends and the over-stallion to shreds-
Pegasi: AAAAAH!!!!!!! -stampedes, some guards strangling him-
Hermon: -cries- MAMA!!! -as the guard's attempted to choke him-
Dam: -to scared to go near him, backs away-
