(YOU READ WOF?!?! But no, what I had in mind when I thought of the rebellion was a mix of WoF and Keeper of the Lost Cities by Shannon Messenger. That rebellion is called The Black Swan.)
(Pretty much against anyone who supports fighting to settle who lives where. This rebellion doesn’t want the fighting to go on. They want to settle this peacefully. They won’t hurt anyone to get what they want, but that doesn’t mean they’ll tell anyone a rebellion exists unless they see a potential member. The rebellion also keeps it completely secret that they’re rebels in their personal lives, and above all, they do not tell the leaders of their herd. Oooo, do you think Hollywing and Robincloud would be interested in joining?)
(They’re part of a rebellion nobody knows about unless the rebellion wants you to know. The members are some of the smartest, quickest, most talented pegasi in all of Anok, but their group is still rather small. That’s where Brightwing always disappears to. BAM.)
Before he she would answer, she cantered over to it and pulled it down with both her wings. A loud screech of metal resounded in side the cave as the floor pushed up into a table, stone tablets encircled it, and a map of Anok lay on top. "That is what it does," she snorted, sitting down on one of the seats. There was one seat for all of them. Nowaka hesitated, but then took a seat across from Matlina. Crispleaf sat beside him, admiring the crystal table.
Acqua searched the cave with his eyes quickly and saw a glint on the right. “Is that it?” He asked, pointing with his wing at the glinting thing. “What’s This lever supposed to lead to...?”
Nowaka snickered. Matlina rolled her eyes at Nowaka and said, "Yeah. We should figure out a plan," she nodded, stepping forward and looking around the cave. "I knew there was a lever here somewhere...." she muttered. She trotted around the cave, looking up at the cieling.
Acqua’s expression fought between amused, embarrassed, excited, and irritated. Finally he said, “Shouldn’t we be starting a plan to defeat Hermon? A real plan?”
Nowaka smirked. "Well, I say you are because you both have telekinsis, you both are opposites of each other which is adorable, and, really, the answer lies in what you think it is," he snorted. Matlina had an annoyed expression at all Nowaka's true reasons.
Matlina glanced at him. "Don't look at me. I'm just as clueless as a foal on the day of birth on that topic," she snorted. Nowaka smirked. "I might know the answer......." he said, biting his lip for suspense.
Hermosa shook her head with a sad smile. “I’m sorry, but that’s just not true. I am very, very sorry I had to be the one to tell you this. I can even send you proof. Hold on a second.” She opened her mind to Matlina’s again and transmitted the scene of her and Acqua staring all moony-eyed at each-other on the beach after showing off their powers.
Hermosa smiled patiently. “That you liked each-other. Everyone knew It was going to happen. I mean, you both have telekinesis, you both have a power that has to do with nature, and you were giving each-other moony eyes ever since you saw each-other for the first time.”
Nowaka nodded his agreement with a smirk. Matlina stiffened again and bit her lip with wild and crazy eyes that stared into space. "Yeah.... About....what?" she asked slowly.
Acqua nickered quietly and smiled back before she looked away.
Hermosa smirked at them. “You know, you were super obvious.” She looked at Nowaka to agree with her.
Acqua stuttered. “Uh- um- about w-what?”
(Wouldn’t it be cool if Riverbreeze would join us on this? It’s not the same with just the two of us. It was designed originally for more then two people.)
Matlina let out her breath. "That's a relief....." she mumbled. She glanced at Aqcua, a small smile upon her face, but when she looked away, her face was a hard rock.
Acqua stepped forward hesitantly, shooting Matlina a glance before speaking. “So... uh.... the thing is.........“ -he took a deep breath- “We’re sorta together now.” He said quickly.
Hermosa shook her head. “No, I’m pretty sure you wanted to tell us something else before we went after Hermon. Not trying to avoid the inevitable, just reminding you of something you thought yourself earlier.”
Matlina twisted her ears. "Really? That was fast. Impressive.....I guess. But I can't know because I can't see what's inside your head," Matlina added. She then hardened into a rock. "Now we need to find Hermon," she said, making most of them go silent.
Hermosa lowered her head and tried very hard to put each train of thought from the Pegasi around her into a rain drop, letting it splatter to the ground and mute the voices. “I’m not listening anymore. Something clicked just now, and I can block out your thoughts.”
Matlina's eyes opened slowly. "I don't have to, because you are just infesting my brain like a worm. It's actually very discomforting," she said through gritted teeth.
Acqua‘s wing itched to wrap itself around Matlina, but his mind kept whispering, Wait.
Hermosa simply nodded. “I could tell from the feelings that were with the thoughts and images. And believe me, if I could stop reading minds for just one day, I would.”
Matlina eyed Hermosa. "Then you should stop reading my mind if it's so painful you can't bear it. The thing that makes it worse me is.....I've been in similar situations before. In my mind. Whenever plants and animals burn, I burn with them," she said quietly. Nowaka twisted his ears with discomfort, while Crispleaf just waited for someone to answer.
Matlina nodded and looked to the right at the cave wall. "I don't know if I can again.... But I'll try. I saw.... A great fire, but it was not in Anok. It was in the Landwalker's land," she continued. "The fire was created by them, but it had gotten out of control, and almost everything died. Including the pegasi living there...." she trailed off. Nowaka shot his head up. "There were pegasi there?!" he exclaimed. Matlina nodded. Nowaka looked at the ground, clearly thinking.
Hermosa heard the unease in her friend’s mind, and sobered. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable. But start with the more urgent news, I suggest. Whichever seems more urgent to you, anyway,” she added.
Nowaka twisted his ears and turned to Hermosa, an annoyed expression on his face. "you already know where they were, Hermosa, I can tell you do," he sighed. Matlina twisted her ears, and looks at Hermosa carefully and shuffled her hooves. "I don't want too," she snapped.
Hermosa looked injured. ”Yes I do. You’re my friend. I was matter-of-fact very worried. You’ve been gone for hours, you know.” That’s when she heard it; the reason Matlina had been gone. She couldn’t help a small smile although she tried to block it. ”So, what were you doing? Come on, tell us.”
Acqua pulled her closer with his wing which was still on her back. ”Okay. When you figure it out, be sure to tell me. I want to help,” he said. Then they finally emerged into the place where their friends were. He casually took his wing back.
Hermosa looked up and shot up. ”Where have you been?!”
"Not sure," she said truthfully. She turned her head to the right and watched the cave wall pass quickly. Her spine shivered and her eyes faltered for a second, but int the next she was fine.
Matlina glanced at him again, her ears twisting, clearly in a dilema with herself. "I....er" she stuttered, and then narrowed her eyes at the ground. "You play so very unfair!" she snarled. "Fine! Not used to someone asking questions about me..." she mumbled.
Matlina shook her head and sighed. "You really have a lot to turn. For one thing, you're embarassed because you're blushing. So, you should really get that under control," she nickered.
Matlina thought for a moment. "I think they broke off..... And, if you were the newbee, you would NOT be standing this close to me, because a newbee would know I do not allow strangers to stand that close," she said with quite a lot of smugnesss.
Acqua shook his head. ”No, they’re not my friends. They barely know me. Plus, I’m the newbee to the group. And I thought they were in the entrance cave?”
Matlian rolled her eyes. "Correction: Our friends. You're their friends too. And, yes. We are. But like I said, there are long tunnels in here. There are still some I haven't dared to go down," she said, shivering.
Acqua rolled his eyes, but couldn’t help a small grin. ”I know, what you can do is incredible and thought of as impossible. But I strongly doubt there is a one eye one horned flying purple pegasus eater in here.” he said, having a hard time keeping a straight face while he said it.
Matlina scowled. "You don't know what's real or not. That thing could possibly be real if I can do this," she snorted. Then she demonstrated by every time her hoof touched the stone floor, a black, red, or white rose would pop up, but it was often black roses.
(Uh, read the comment I left on part 5 [the link above takes you to the post])

(Hey Nightmist, do you still want to know what’s up with Moonstream and Brightwing on Alternative Endings?)
( Horses can sit. I've seen them sit, and the chairs are just flat slabs big enough to support them on them :) )
(How can they sit on chairs lol?)
Matlina:
Before he she would answer, she cantered over to it and pulled it down with both her wings. A loud screech of metal resounded in side the cave as the floor pushed up into a table, stone tablets encircled it, and a map of Anok lay on top. "That is what it does," she snorted, sitting down on one of the seats. There was one seat for all of them. Nowaka hesitated, but then took a seat across from Matlina.

( Sorry...... ;-; )
(Helloooooooo?)
Acqua’s expression fought between amused, embarrassed, excited, and irritated. Finally he said, “Shouldn’t we be starting a plan to defeat Hermon? A real plan?”
Nowaka smirked. "Well, I say you are because you both have telekinsis, you both are opposites of each other which is adorable, and, really, the answer lies in what you think it is," he snorted. Matlina had an annoyed expression at all Nowaka's true reasons.
Acqua snorted. “Oh?”
Matlina glanced at him. "Don't look at me. I'm just as clueless as a foal on the day of birth on that topic," she snorted. Nowaka smirked. "I might know the answer......." he said, biting his lip for suspense.
Acqua smiled in spite of himself. “Does that mean we’re meant to be or something?” He joked, but at the same time really wanted to know the answer.
Nowaka nickered. "Oh yes, trust me, it was. Nothin' to be ashamed of though," he snorted. Matlina's ears drooped. "Oh well......" she mumbled.
Acqua received the transmission also, which was obviously intended. He cringed. “It was that obvious...?” He asked Nowaka.
Matlina let out an angry sigh and furrowed her eyebrows. "Whatever," she snorted weakly.
Hermosa shook her head with a sad smile. “I’m sorry, but that’s just not true. I am very, very sorry I had to be the one to tell you this. I can even send you proof. Hold on a second.” She opened her mind to Matlina’s again and transmitted the scene of her and Acqua staring all moony-eyed at each-other on the beach after showing off their powers.
Nowaka nodded with a smile. Matlina's eyes bulged out of her head. "I never, in the history of ever, did moony eyes, at ANYTHING," she said.
Hermosa smiled patiently. “That you liked each-other. Everyone knew It was going to happen. I mean, you both have telekinesis, you both have a power that has to do with nature, and you were giving each-other moony eyes ever since you saw each-other for the first time.”
( Yeah, lol. WE SHOULD TOTALLY ASK 'ER!!! :D )
Nowaka nodded his agreement with a smirk. Matlina stiffened again and bit her lip with wild and crazy eyes that stared into space. "Yeah.... About....what?" she asked slowly.
Acqua nickered quietly and smiled back before she looked away.
Hermosa smirked at them. “You know, you were super obvious.” She looked at Nowaka to agree with her.
Acqua stuttered. “Uh- um- about w-what?”
(Wouldn’t it be cool if Riverbreeze would join us on this? It’s not the same with just the two of us. It was designed originally for more then two people.)
Matlina let out her breath. "That's a relief....." she mumbled. She glanced at Aqcua, a small smile upon her face, but when she looked away, her face was a hard rock.
Hermosa beamed at them. “Isn’t it sweet? I’m so happy for you guys.”
Nowaka froze and turned his head slightly. "What? Really? Wow..." he mumbled, and looked to Matlina for confirmation. Matlina nodded very slowly.
Acqua stepped forward hesitantly, shooting Matlina a glance before speaking. “So... uh.... the thing is.........“ -he took a deep breath- “We’re sorta together now.” He said quickly.
( lol. Yeah )
Matlina stiffened. "I-er, the thing is,-er-I-you-" she stuttered, not sure how to proceed, so she just stiffened even more and said nothing.
Hermosa shook her head. “No, I’m pretty sure you wanted to tell us something else before we went after Hermon. Not trying to avoid the inevitable, just reminding you of something you thought yourself earlier.”
(School? Already?)
Matlina twisted her ears. "Really? That was fast. Impressive.....I guess. But I can't know because I can't see what's inside your head," Matlina added. She then hardened into a rock. "Now we need to find Hermon," she said, making most of them go silent.
( lol. I was gone the last 3 days with school )
(Inaaaaarrrrraaaa (sorry if that sounds super annoying...))
Hermosa lowered her head and tried very hard to put each train of thought from the Pegasi around her into a rain drop, letting it splatter to the ground and mute the voices. “I’m not listening anymore. Something clicked just now, and I can block out your thoughts.”
Matlina's eyes opened slowly. "I don't have to, because you are just infesting my brain like a worm. It's actually very discomforting," she said through gritted teeth.
Hermosa knew it wasn’t a question, so she didn’t answer. Instead, she shrugged, and said, “Why don’t you tell them what you’re thinking?”
Matlina nodded, her eyes closed. "What happened with you guys," Matlina asked, her eyes still closed. It wasn't exactly a question.
Acqua‘s wing itched to wrap itself around Matlina, but his mind kept whispering, Wait.
Hermosa simply nodded. “I could tell from the feelings that were with the thoughts and images. And believe me, if I could stop reading minds for just one day, I would.”
Matlina eyed Hermosa. "Then you should stop reading my mind if it's so painful you can't bear it. The thing that makes it worse me is.....I've been in similar situations before. In my mind. Whenever plants and animals burn, I burn with them," she said quietly. Nowaka twisted his ears with discomfort, while Crispleaf just waited for someone to answer.
Hermosa hung her head. “It’s even worse hearing you say it, seeing the images re-play in your head like you were there...”
Matlina nodded and looked to the right at the cave wall. "I don't know if I can again.... But I'll try. I saw.... A great fire, but it was not in Anok. It was in the Landwalker's land," she continued. "The fire was created by them, but it had gotten out of control, and almost everything died. Including the pegasi living there...." she trailed off. Nowaka shot his head up. "There were pegasi there?!" he exclaimed. Matlina nodded. Nowaka looked at the ground, clearly thinking.
( Back )
(Halloooooo?)
Hermosa heard the unease in her friend’s mind, and sobered. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable. But start with the more urgent news, I suggest. Whichever seems more urgent to you, anyway,” she added.
Matlina glanced at Aqcua for back up, hating to get into these situations. She stepped back a bit and bit her lip, somewhat hiding behind Aqcua.
Matlina flattened her ears against her head, but said nothing, and only silently glared. "What makes you think that?" she said through gritted teeth.
Hermosa thought a moment. “How ‘bout work toward the super cute part where we find out about your one living weak spot?” She said with a grin.
( Hello? :9 )
Matlina peered at Hermosa questioningly. "You know, so which news do you mean?" she whispered.
Hermosa nvodded excitedly. ”Go on, tell them!”
Acqua looked at Hermosa with an uncomfortable look on his face, thinking to her, Please, don’t embarrass me in front of everyone.
Hermosa promptly tampered down her excitement and sobbered her expression.
Matlina twisted her ears, uncomfortable. "Alrighty then. Well, I have some weird news......." she said.
Hermosa nodded understandingly. "I can see why. No fear, I won't talk about it until you two do," she said with a grin.
( Hello? )
Nowaka twisted his ears and turned to Hermosa, an annoyed expression on his face. "you already know where they were, Hermosa, I can tell you do," he sighed. Matlina twisted her ears, and looks at Hermosa carefully and shuffled her hooves. "I don't want too," she snapped.
( Yeah I think so... )
(Your mom has her own blog?)
Hermosa looked injured. ”Yes I do. You’re my friend. I was matter-of-fact very worried. You’ve been gone for hours, you know.” That’s when she heard it; the reason Matlina had been gone. She couldn’t help a small smile although she tried to block it. ”So, what were you doing? Come on, tell us.”
Matlina snorted. "What's it to you? Not like you care where I have been," Matlina growled.
Acqua pulled her closer with his wing which was still on her back. ”Okay. When you figure it out, be sure to tell me. I want to help,” he said. Then they finally emerged into the place where their friends were. He casually took his wing back.
Hermosa looked up and shot up. ”Where have you been?!”
"Not sure," she said truthfully. She turned her head to the right and watched the cave wall pass quickly. Her spine shivered and her eyes faltered for a second, but int the next she was fine.
Acqua grinned. ”Well, you better get used to it.” he said, then his face sobered. ”So, what’s bothering you?”
( ;-; )
( hello? )
Matlina glanced at him again, her ears twisting, clearly in a dilema with herself. "I....er" she stuttered, and then narrowed her eyes at the ground. "You play so very unfair!" she snarled. "Fine! Not used to someone asking questions about me..." she mumbled.
Acqua smiled at her sweetly. ”Does that mean you’ll tel me?” he asked, sidling closer and rubbing her back with his wing tips.
Matlina flinched. "Ugh. How can you have such an effect on my concious!" she growled.
Acqua put his wing over her back. ”Come on, what is it? I can tell you’re feeling troubled.”
Matlina twisted her ears. "Yep. Troubled. As if I could ever be troubled about ANYTHING" she murmured.
Acqua shrugged. ”You seem troubled.”
Matlina glanced at him. "Why you asking?" she answered.
Acqua kept perfect pace with her. ”Are you still disturbed about that fire?”
Matlina rolled her eyes again. "Whatever," she sighed, trotting faster.
Acqua nickered. ”Wow, you actually fell for my immaturity act. I’m better at this then I thought.”
Matlina rolled her eyes. "Sure." she said sarcastically.
( Here sorry XD )
(Hellooooo?)
Acqua snorted, and the redness to his complexion disappeared almost immediately. ”Happy?” he asked, a smug grin on his face.
Matlina shook her head and sighed. "You really have a lot to turn. For one thing, you're embarassed because you're blushing. So, you should really get that under control," she nickered.
Acqua turned a little red. ”Yeah, but I haven’t been with pegasi in two years, so maybe I forgot how to read expressions,” he retorted indignantly.
Matlina thought for a moment. "I think they broke off..... And, if you were the newbee, you would NOT be standing this close to me, because a newbee would know I do not allow strangers to stand that close," she said with quite a lot of smugnesss.
Acqua shook his head. ”No, they’re not my friends. They barely know me. Plus, I’m the newbee to the group. And I thought they were in the entrance cave?”
Matlian rolled her eyes. "Correction: Our friends. You're their friends too. And, yes. We are. But like I said, there are long tunnels in here. There are still some I haven't dared to go down," she said, shivering.
Acqua snickered. ”Weren’t we going to find your friends?”
Matlina grumbled. "Fine. You got me. They aren't real. But no one knows," she smirked.
( HERE )
Acqua rolled his eyes, but couldn’t help a small grin. ”I know, what you can do is incredible and thought of as impossible. But I strongly doubt there is a one eye one horned flying purple pegasus eater in here.” he said, having a hard time keeping a straight face while he said it.
Matlina scowled. "You don't know what's real or not. That thing could possibly be real if I can do this," she snorted. Then she demonstrated by every time her hoof touched the stone floor, a black, red, or white rose would pop up, but it was often black roses.
Acqua laughed and shouted after her, ”No such thing!” He chased after her, catching up quickly and keeping pace perfectly.
( XD )
(Yes, sorry Hannah!)
( You were gone........ We RP.....Way of MB XD Sorry )
