Emerald pulls out some of his potions, and seeing this Loupe does the same. Nishan takes out one of what Emerald thinks is her collapsable spears, but when it extends it's just a staff. Ruby unsheathes her knife, and begins to look at the enemy zebras wearily.

Emerald calls for the attack, and he and Loupe begin to start lobbing there potions out. Emearld tosses what sticky potions he has, and manages to strike a group of two zebra. The other potions shatters near the box, and the last one goes high and smashes into the wall. Loupe has just about as much luck. She aims for a nearest zebra and incases him full in foam.

Emerald and the rest charge in, but by this point the other zebras, including Dejen, see the attackers. Suddenly there is a smash and the room is filled high with smoke.

Emerald can't see anything, but does spot the flashes of spells or potions, and the din of combat.

What does Emerald do?

Loupe has just about as much luck. She aims for a nearest zebra and incases him full in foam.
If the picture is an accurate depiction of the number of hostile zebras in the room, Emerald had managed to hit the two zebra's in the upper right of the room and Loup hitting either of the first two zebras near the entrance of the room (bottom of the pic). That should leave Dejen, the zebra he was talking too, and one of the zebra's near the bottom of the pic among the three out of the six zebras left standing.
>>
>>28961306
Unless Nishan and Ruby plan to join the potion throwing party, and we don't pass the perception check, Emerald should fire point blank magic missiles.

Throwing spells or potions blindly into the smoke risk hitting allies, we should wait for it to clear up. Alert Joy that reinforcements are here and pop into the room she's in so we are out of the crossfire while we wait for our ability to aim to return.

Emerald wonders if this is the potion that Dejen mentioned, and quickly covers his snout.

Probably just in time too, as he begins to feel woozy and coughs.

>Perception check, 15

Emerald spies about the thick smoke, and though he can see shapes moving about he can't really tell who is who or what is what.

There appears to be a few hazy figures fighting nearby. He says that because the foal can hear the grunts and see a lot of movement.

One vague shape is shuffling around behind him the way he came, but other than that he can't see what the blob is doing.

The last one is on the floor, not really moving. This one Emerald guesses is Ruby, because the shape is quite a bit smaller than the other blobs.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28961664
sheeit maybe we should grab Rubles and GTFO
>>
>>28961664
Drag Ruby out of the smoke, the longer she's in it the worse her condition will be.

>>28961664
Intercept the one sneaking out behind us. If it's a zebra, blast it with any remaining potion (sticky, slippery) or magic missile.
>>

Try to use a push spell to clear some of the smoke. Best not to attack until we know for sure we aren't going to hit an ally.

This.

Does she have a condition or just how long she'll be in combat?
>>
>>28961664
Grab Ruby and see if you can intercept the blob from the entrance you came.
>>
>>28961664
Drag Ruby out of there. Dragging her would probably require less effort than carrying her.
>>
>>28961832
Anon, that's most likely Loupe. Fat fuck can only throw potions.
>>
>>28961664
Make a break for it back up the stairs. Hopefully the smoke is too heavy to travel upwards? If anything it should start thinning out when Emmy leaves the affected area.
>>
>>28961664
Drag small form out of the smoke. Unless all these Zebra have gas masks (doubt it) the smoke should do our work for us. Once we're clear, be ready to blast any shitting Zebra that ain't Nishan.
>>
>>28961664
Hopefully Nishan and Loupe remembered the conversation we overheard about the smoke being toxic.
>>
>>28961664
Unless everyone has gas masks or cloth to breath through, people will be flooding towards thefirst hallway to the left, or back up the stairs. Carry the small blob back up the stairs, but try to ready a magic missile just in case on of the zebra's trample you.
>>
>>28961664
Measure your breaths and flee up the stairs.
>>
>>28961810
By condition I mean the longer shes in the smoke, the more it will fuck her up. The smoke appears to be toxic, it's started to affect us and seems to have already knocked her out, extended exposure is probably lethal, especially to foals.

Emerald pulls out his focus and begins by trying to push the smoke out of the way. It works, but the smoke quickly fills back up the spot that was displaced by his magical energies.

Emerald does a push spell near the floor to find the small form, and once the smoke clears it is indeed Ruby. Emerald uses all his strength to drag Ruby back up the stairs. All at the same time he is also doing his best not to breath in the fumes, though he isn't having too much success at that.

Luckily the smoke seems to be much denser than the air around it, as they emerge from it some way up the stairs, and it doesn't seem to be making any attempt to follow them.

After gulping several lung fulls of fresh air Emerald checks on Ruby.

She is unconscious, but doesn't seem hurt. In fact, to Emerald it doesn't seem to him like she is anything other than asleep. A hypothesis helped by the fact that she let's out a loud snore.

Emerald still feels a little woozy from the gas, but stares upwards to see if maybe Loupe was the blob near the entrance way. There doesn't seem to be anywhere nearby however.

Emerald listens back down the stairs, and the fighting seems to still be going on.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28962161
Well I got nothing. we can't very well lob magic missiles at the blobs at random. Unless anyone has any ideas we should just focus on making sure no one jumps us.
>>
>>28962161
Try to shake her away. If that doesn't work, leave her up stairs to the side of the stairs to prevent anyone going up or down from trampling on her.
Head up the stairs and see if there's any changes. Also check on the tied up zebra to see if he's still there.
>>
>>28962161
Take some deep breaths of clean air before heading back down there. Cast Dweomeric Shield on your bandana and see if the shield will filter out the smoke.
>>
>>28962161
Call out that you've retreated back to the stairs for now. Wait for enemies/allies to come to you.
>>
>>28962161
Our shield might be able to ward off the smoke
>>
>>28962161
Only true loves kiss shall wake the princess. Kiss her!
>>
>>28962161
Make sure we move Woobs' to the side so anyone scrambling to get out doesn't step on her.

We better venture back in I think, see if we can navigate to the opposite room, where Joyride presumably is. Use INT to recall where the potions landed and navigate the room by memory. Boost it.

Emerald shakes Ruby, hoping to wake her up, but she lies there sleeping all the same. The colt gets a fleeting urge to kiss her like in all those fairy tales he has read, but now is not the time for such things... Is it?

Emerald turns back to the smoke cloud and yells out that he is okay and waiting on the stairs, but no one seems to answer. Emerald then turns and carefully creeps over to the top of the stairs. There is still no one there, but Emerald can see over to the doorway to the warehouse.

It appears someone is trying to shake the guard awake out there. A second later Emerald realizes it's Dejen, and he is trying to slap the guard awake. He unbound the guard, but he seems far too high to be of any use.

Emerald wonders if he should go confront Dejen. On the other hoof the fighting downstairs isn't done, and maybe he should assist in that. Emerald has an inkling that he may be able to wander among the gas with his shield spell. At least hopefully he will.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28962577
There's no visibility down there so we'll likely hit an ally if we try to join in.
>>
>>28962577
Revenge on the zebra!
Magic missile one of his leg joint he has trouble moving.
>>
>>28962577
On one hand Dejen is probably dangerous, on the other hand I don't want to see him get away...
>>
>>28962577
Roll sneak attack on Dejen. Weither he's affiliated with the zebra slavers or not, he's a suspect, therefore he's a threat if he flee's. Sneak up on him and cast magic missle.
Boost for attacking the zebra.
>>
>>28962680
Seconding the boost. Also I'm pretty sure he's with them since we found him in a slaver den.
>>
>>28962577
Sneak a little closer, then throw the mystery sexy times potions at him. Let's see him run with a boner.
>>
>>28962725
Yeah! If anything we can apologize to him after we kick his ass and tie him up. if he's up here then that leaves Loup, Nishan, and the two of unaccounted hostile zebra's down stairs.
>>
>>28962725
Well apologize is he was under cover or something, but that's unlikely.
>>
>>28962798
He's trying to help a drugged slaver back on his feet and there's no one watching him but us. Highly unlikely that he's undercover. Still voting for boosted sneak attack on him.
>>
>>28962798
Naw, this seems like classic police corruption if you ask me. He's likely the guy whos been supplying the thugs with potions and bombs.
>>
>>28962577
Wait did he use the potion that was sleeping gas but also lethal?
It might be more important to get back down and get everyone out.

I still think we should try to at least knock him out with on nicely aimed shot though.
>>
>>28962824
There is still a chance that he's just undercover and he's just being empathetic,(the spirit of being a police officer is the server and protect, is it not?) but sad to say it seems a lot more likely he's just corrupt and in on this whole thing.

>>28962855
Unless they were prepared to be injured along with the intruders,(us, in other words) I think it was more than likely just meant to incapacitate us and not be the lethal dose they were talking about.
>>
>>28962877
Maybe it just takes longer for larger targets to knock out. Could've been leathal to foals. Boost sneak attack.
>>
>>28962577
Knock him out and plant a knife on him.
>>
>>28962903
>Maybe it just takes longer for larger targets to knock out.
That is how any kind of chemical works,(at least, conventionally) but there is also Loupe and Nishan to take into account, who are not foals and wouldn't fall to the effect as quickly. Nor does that change the fact that they could easily fall victim to their own potion. The only thing lethal about the sleeping gas was the dosage they planned on using. I'm pretty sure if it was that lethal dose they were speaking of, it would of taken not much for them to fall asleep to it cause it would be a bigger dose at once, and then end up dying from it. It didn't seem they had any gas masks or anything so it doesn't appear they were ready to deal with any potential effects if it backfired.

Attacking Dejen won't protect Ruby, Joy, Nishan or Loupe. We may even end up putting ourselves in danger, taken hostage. I know I'm vastly outvoted here, but I don't think this is the best COA. I'd MUCH rather we see about navigating the gas with our bubble.

But since my say won't be enough, I wish there was something we could do to prove he was here. Couldn't we maybe sneak up and cut an insignia off him, or some other identifying item? Engaging him sounds risky as fuck.

If we do, I vote we sneak up and crack him in the head with our baton. Repeatedly, if need be, until he's out. I don't trust Magic Missile to knock him out quickly enough. Apply baton directly to the forehead.
>>
>>28962577
Sneak attack low and from behind with baton, try to get him to chase you if he doesn't go down, then run down stairs if he chases.
>>
>>28962577
Sneak up and strike him in the jewels with the baton. Then shoot off a few push spells in his face while he's down
>>
>>28963864
Ruby is currently unconscious but I doubt she needs our attention right now, the potion was 'detonated' in the room with the guards before it was thrown, so hopefully Joy and the other ponies down there are alright. Nishan and Loupe are in trouble, then again we've only know them for a short period of time. No one would blame Emerald for not valiantly looking for our our two companions down there. Besides have you forgot that Dejen is a somewhat high ranking guard (i don't remember his ranking but I know its some what relevant). I'd rather not have a guard slander out name with false accusations.
>>
>>28962577
Hey Fic, have you ever considered making a bunch of generic backgrounds and reusing those?
>>
>>28964619
>Ruby unconscious and absolutely helpless near a combat with a bunch of rapist-thugs

Besides, I don't want Em to be a kid who abandons his own people, ie. Nishan and Loupe.

Agree to disagree, senpai. Not saying I don't see value in getting Dejen, but I feel like our people should be priority. We don't even know Joy's status, maybe she's injured and could use our help. Nishan and Loupe aside even, too many unknowns for me to want to turn our collective back on that battle.
>>
>>28964641
I agree, but if we let Dejen get away he might escape and set this up elsewhere or he might use his police status to turn the police against us.
>>
Gotta wonder why Dejen didn't try to have Rubes and Em sold into slavery when they first encountered.
>>
Roll dex for sneak attack on Dejen and then if successfull after we tie them up, hide ruby somewhere safer than the stairs.

Emerald turns away from Dejen and pulls out his focus. He can't cast the shield spell on himself, but he can cast it on things around him. Targeting his bandanna, he casts the spell, causing a small ball of magical energy to cover him.

He carefully makes his way downstairs, creeping carefully towards the group of fighters. The colt can make out three blobs fighting, but he doesn't know who is who.

Emerald steadies himself, and then drops his shield and casts a push spell.

Two unfamiliar zebras wearing small gas masks are revealed, as is a slightly haggard looking Nishan covering her face with a piece of torn material. The rushing gas and sudden clearness of the area surprises all three, and Emerald takes the opportunity to unload some magical missiles into one of the ponies before quickly shielding himself again. Before the gas refills the space he sees one of the zebras go down, and Nishan leveling a heavy blow into the other.

It goes quiet, and after a few seconds of shuffling Nishan accidentally walks right into the shielded Emerald. She is now wearing one of the face masks.

"Come, I need to get out of the gas. I'm about to pass out."

Emerald leads Nishan back towards the stairs and next to Ruby. Nishan looks around and then says,

"Did you manage to find Loupe?"

Emerald shakes his head, and then looks worriedly back down at the smoke. It's starting to dissipate, but it's still pretty thick.

"Don't worry about her. This concentration of gas isn't lethal, at least not adults but..." Nishan says, slumping down slightly, "It will knock us out. Here take the mask and go see if you can find Joyride and the others."

Nishan unhooks her mask and then finally passes out, nearly dropping the breathing mask into the gas below. Emerald picks it up and puts it on and ties the bandanna back around his neck.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28965876
We can't let Dejen escape! Get outside and stop the zigga.
>>
>>28965876
Go get Joyride.
>>
Hold Dejen and the thug with a shild while you go get Loupe out of the smoke then scream to Joyride to blast the remaining zebras in the smoke cause they're already out it and rush back to Dejen before he tries to escape. DON'T LET DEJEN ESCAPE EVEN IF WE WANT TO GIVE PRIORITY TO OUR FRIENDS.
>>
>>28965949
Agreed. We gotta capture Dejen. If he escapes and notifies the "real" guards he can cause a lot of bullshit for us.

Emerald glances down back at the smoke. He could go get Joyride right now, but something tells him that he should go look for Dejen.

Emerald bursts up the stairs as fast as he can and carefully makes his way to the door so that he isn't taken by surprise. Glancing out he sees the guard on the floor, unbound, but still blacked out.

Emerald Glances around the building, and then walks to the sidewalk and looks around. Dejen doesn't seem to be anywhere nearby that he can see.

He thinks he might have missed his chance when he went and helped Nishan down below.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28966166
Fuck! We lost our chance. Get back down and look for Joyride and Loupe then.
>>
>>28966166
Yup, their leader got away and now he's working on an alibi.
>>
>>28966201
Yeah, we fucked up. Should have went for him when we had the chance. He's pretty much untouchable now.
>>
>>28966204
Or shot him with a magic missle so he'd have a harder time making up a story. Now he'll just use his authority to get away scott free and start over again after we leave.
>>
>>28966199
We did the right thing.
If we had wasted time on revenge then Nissan might not have been able to take on those zebras.
>>
>>28966166
Go find joyride
>>
>>28966439
Yeah now Dejens gonna come back with another squad and everyone will still be passed out.
>>
>>28966520
>>28966199
Worse he goes back to the police station and works his way out on making you wanted for assaulting that guy with magic or some bullshit.

I say we at least get Loupe safely to where Nishan and Ruby are. By now it shouldn't be that hard the smoke should be going out by now since its started to fade away.
>>
>>28966166
We've been slinging potions and spells like some magical gun slinger for some time. Will Emmy's spell grow stronger?
>>
>>28966166
Can Emerald close the door and prop the unconscious zebra against it?
Touch the zebra dick. Its been a while since he had himself some penis. Or put yo dick in him. I doubt the guard would remember.
>>
>>28966166
Lock the warehouse door and rebind the zebra. If anything we'll have a group of ponies to testify against Dejen. This guy's already fucked.
Go downstairs and and prepare to put a magic missile through some zebras head, just in case there are some remaining stragglers. Look for Joyride and the other ponies.
>>
>>28966166
As much as I don't want to say this . . . . We can hold off on the looting. At least until we find the people we'really looking for.

>>28966166

Bump-bumpity-bada-bada-hump-bump.

Why would we need to use the rope to pull the to safety? They'really just unconscious (maybe) and there should be more gas masks down stairs.
>>
>>28968286

The rope is for us to keep. You know to later tie the zebra's up? I just want to get it before we get the others to safety.

Emerald quickly goes back to the building and closes the door behind him. There is a lock and a deadbolt on the door, and the colt closes both.

For now that should prevent anyone from coming in, but he is sure it wouldn't hold very well, especially since the windows are barely boarded up and the large door doesn't seem to have a lock on it at all, at least from this side.

Emerald rushes back to the staircase in hopes of finding Joyride and Loupe among the smoke, but just as he is about to go down the stairs he bumps into something, causing him to fall backwards.

"Oh, there you are lil' perv." Joyride says, grinning down at the pony before her and swaying slightly, "Saw Nishan and Ruby, so I figured you'd be somewhere nearby."

Emerald quickly gets up and hugs her tightly. Trembling slightly, he says that he wasn't sure he'd ever see her again.

"Hey, hey now. I'm fine, see? Thanks for the help by the way, I'm assuming that was you guys." Joyride says, pointing down at the smoky room below.

Emerald, slight tears in his eyes, says that it was, except for the gas bomb. He isn't sure who did that.

"Well, it looks like you have everything handled. All the kidnapped ponies are downstairs if you need them. Now, If you'll excuse me." Joyride says before suddenly falling snout first into the floor.

She starts snoring loudly, and appears to have passed out. Emerald gives her a few hard pokes on the flank, but it doesn't seem to rouse her at all.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28969325
Let's try to put the kidnaped on a safe spot and leave the kidnapers tied up somewhere else and then stack the fuck up on anything you can find
This might be a one colt versus the world scenario
>>
>>28969325
Get the rest of the slaves out of the smoke.
>>
>>28969325
Find Loupe and the other slaves, move them to saftey. Afterwards tie the slavers up.
>>
>>28969325
Crazy thought
Try a perception check while you look around there JUST might be a secret exit somewhere
>>
>>28969325
We should be able to use our shield to make a protective cover to guide groups of slaves out of the smokey room if that's the only way out.
>>
>>28969325
Maybe find a basement window to air out that gas, searching the outside of the building would be easiest.
>>
>>28969399
I was trying to figure out a way to suggest efficiently airing out the room,(that certainly seems easier than trying to carry all the incapacitated upstairs) and didn't think there would be windows, but looking for them would be worth a shot. Too bad we didn't learn that wind gust spell, that would certainly help right now.

Not to mention Dejen got away and we need to figure out what we're gonna do with all the incapacitated before he comes back.

>>28969374
>there JUST might be a secret exit somewhere
Possible, but not probable. It wouldn't hurt to look either way.
>>
>>28969325
Bust one of the warehouse windows. Get the gas out.
>>
>>28969325
Let's MOVE Joyride out of the way to prevent people from trampling her. THEN we can get the ponies. I don't think we'really proficient enough to continually use the Shield spell. Tell the ponies to its save to leave but they should hold their breath when passing through the gas cloud.
>>
>>28969476
No need. It's starting to dissipate. Plus it's staying down there.
>>
>>28969325
Let's go greet the ponies and find the zebra chefs wife. I'll bet she'll be happy to learn that her husband is alive.
>>
>>28969325
If only we had some smelling salt.
>>
>>28969325
Dragon her off to the pony pile (currently Nishan and Ruby)
>>
>>28969325
>Emerald quickly gets up and hugs her tightly. Trembling slightly, he says that he wasn't sure he'd ever see her again.
Aww, he was really worried about her.

>Emerald gives her a few hard pokes on the flank, but it doesn't seem to rouse her at all.
Certainly living up to the name "lil perv" by choosing to poke her butt vs anywhere else.
>>
>>28969688
Well, she does have a great butt.
I'd poke that butt.
>>
>>28969325
Let's loot the bodies! For muny!
>>
>>28969325
Now go cop a feel on everyone while they're out.
>>
>>28969325
are there any sex toys in this brothel? Maybe we should take one as a souvenir
>>
>>28969835
I'm sure non of the ponies would protest of us taking all the sex toys.
>>
>>28969325
I wonder how much of an effect the sleeping gas has on Joyride. Even if she did possibly enter the room last since she was blindly chucking spells before how resistent she is even to the gas. It looks like she would pass out earlier if she tried to go by it unprotected looking for us. Makes me wonder if she will wake up faster than the others.

Hell, it makes me wonder why she passed through the smoke instead of using a gust spell she offered to teach Em before.
>>
>>28969987
By that point she had been gassed several times before and has been fighting them for who knows how long. Chances are that she is simply exhausted.
>>
>>28969987
Or a shield spell at that. But as >>28970005 points out, they tried to gas her already. I'm assuming a multitude of things finally made her succumb to the gas's effect.
>>
>>28970005
Fuck you're probably right. That also goes back to what I thought about her waking up faster than the rest. I don't think she would pass out from the spells, at least not for long. She has a lot of mp training over the years for passing out from small rapid succession spells to make her drained out so I think even if she passed out from those two points I still believe she would be the first to wake up. Joyride is pretty fucking tough.
>>
>>28970281
>Joyride is pretty fucking tough.
Pretty
Fuckable
Tough
>>
>>28969325
Loupe's still unaccounted for, and that worries me. Hopefully she ducked downstairs to escape the gas.

One way or another we oughta work at freeing the slaves. Search any Zebras for keys, and then head downstairs. If we free them and the guards show up, we'll have their backing that we saved them, and are NOT slavers. Plus, we'll need some extra muscle to move Joyride. Em probably could move her, but it'd be ridiculously slow going.

Search Zebras for keys, head downstairs, find Loupe and free slaves. Hurry, before Dejen can regroup.
>>
>>28969325
Do we have pip's book? We are desperately short on allies who are still able bodied, hopefully we might be able to find some slaves to free and regroup with but if things start to get out of control we might have to strike a deal with Pip.
>>
>>28970654
>>28970525
>>28969325

We still have someone that can help us. Quickly send a Dragonfire message to the Shaman Bunsen from the school and explain the situation and the crooked dectective and ask him to send help right away. Also include address.
>>
>>28969325
Let's send a Dragonfire message to Bunsen asking for help and explain that we found the missing kidnapped ponies and who was behind them. Tell him to come with those that he trust right away.
>>
>>28970869
>>
>>28970670
>>28970968
Samefag. Anyway, while I don't think that's a terrible idea, I hope that he doesn't get the bright idea to come down here himself, unless he is well and truly badass. He's pretty old. Then again, we're pretty young, so fuck do I know?
>>
>>28969325
look for loupe and the slave ponies.
>>
>>28969325
Kiss Joyride on the cheek.
>>
>>28970670
>>28970968
If we did that it would be worth it to tell him that he might not be able to trust the guards; cause of a case of corruption.

We don't have any idea how many of them are in on this.

Emerald drags Joyride down with Nishan and Ruby. Giving her a quick pat on the head and a kiss on the cheek, the colt descends back into the gas.

Emerald starts first by identifying all the bodies in the room where the fight took place in an attempt to find Loupe. He does eventually find her behind some crates. Judging by the fact that there is a unbroken potion bottle nearby it can be assumed she was going to hide herself and lob potions. Emerald takes the potion up and puts it back in her hoof, and then makes his way over to the room that Joyride was in.

It's a long corridor with rooms branching off to the side. Emerald can't see into most of them however, because they've been blocked off by boxes, upturned beds, and other pieces of furniture.

At the end of the hall Emerald finds something that was very likely a lounge. The entrance way to it has been blocked slightly with big, comfy looking sofas turned on their sides with a lot of scorch marks on them, and behind it are piled some 20 or so ponies, many of which seemed to have made attempts to get to the back wall before falling asleep from the gas.

Emerald looks at the sleepers, and eventually spots Sugar Cane among them. He then takes another look around the room and sees a small kitchenette and a bathroom, but now other exits.

On the nearby kitchenette is a book. It's hard to read because of the gas, but it looks to be a ledger.

Emerald ponders on whether he should write Bunsen and ask for his assistance. Would he be able to help? It might be a good idea.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28971762
Look in the ledger first.
It might give us an idea of everyone who's in on this operation. It'll be good evidence.
>>
>>28971762
Get the Ledger. Read the first couple of pages and then hide it.

Then write a letter to Bunsen. Tell him where we are at, explain that the guards may or may not be in on it, tell him that there is a lot of ponies here that are unconscious from the gas.
>>
>>28971762
>a bathroom, but now other exits.

What's in the bathroom and other exits?
>>
>>28971762
>Emerald ponders on whether he should write Bunsen and ask for his assistance. Would he be able to help? It might be a good idea.

Do it, he's one of the few we can trust right now.
>>
>>28971884
We've only just meet him but sure. Message Bunsen.
>>
>>28971762
Grab the gas mask from one of the zebras in their barricaded room and put it on one of the ponies. Preferable someone who looks strong.
>>
>>28971762
Gather some of the gas masks on put them on Loupe, Ruby, and Nishan. The sooner they are awake the better. Also are there any sex toys that are clean and look inviting to take with us?
>>
>>28971908
>>28971762

>Gather some of the gas masks on put them on Loupe, Ruby, and Nishan

Never mind instead like the other anon said. Put them on those still stuck in the gas.
>>
>>28971762
Take a gas mask off one of the zebras, then go back up stairs and quickly leave a gas mask for Joyride.
>>
>>28971917
I agree with you dude, but I think we should reserve one for Joyride. She'll wake up faster than any of the ponies down there if they were given gas masks.
>>
>>28971762
Get the ledger and check out the other rooms.
>>
>>28971762
I see no reason as to why we shouldn't send a message to Bunsen. But if we do we should include the fact that the guard might be in on this, specifically Dejen.

Emerald grabs the ledger, and then makes his way out to the room that had the fight in it and looks for other gas masks he could use.

The zebras covered in foam and the ones stuck in the sticky potion are out, since they never had time to put their masks on and are probably now well within the goop that covers each respectively.

That only leaves the other zebra that Nishan knocked out.

Emerald removes the gas mask from him and returns upstairs and attaches it to Joyride. Do gas masks help people who have already been effected by gas? Emerald isn't really sure, but he tries anyway.

The colt then pulls out his quill and parchment and writes a letter to Bunsen, explaining everything that has happened and saying he isn't sure who to turn too since he doesn't trust the zebra guard.

Emerald sends the letter off and then heads back downstairs and takes the right down the passage that he hasn't been yet.

It leads down a hallway with a piece of cloth hung to separate the room from the passage. He pulls it aside to see a small sleeping quarters. There are cheap cots pilled around the walls and one large wooden spool with chairs around it acting as a table. Approaching the table through the thick fog Emerald sees that a game of cards was interrupted, probably by the fighting.

Interestingly, Emerald notices that the smoke in this room is slowly filtering towards the back of the room. Emerald walks towards the center of it, and finds a closed door. He opens it and it reveals a grate on the floor with a ladder that leads downwards. From the smell of it, he guesses it's a sewer.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28972021
We should look for more passage ways to filter out the knock out gas. The sooner we have these ponies us and awake, the better.
>>
>>28972021
Whos accounts are on the ledger? Anyone we'd know?
>>
>>28972021
Let's, not explore that area just yet. I don't think we should leave everyone uncle supervised. Just in case someone stumbles upon the warehouse .....
>>
>>28972021
Drain the gas into the sewer. What else is there to see? Put a gas mask on Loupe.
>>
>>28972021
Let's keep an eye out, for anyone else outside. Do we see any more zebra's coming?
>>
>>28972021
This is gonna suck, but can we spend some time using the push spell to channel all the smoke down into the sewers? If anything, maybe our magic will grow stronger from all the . . . Exertion.
Then again I'm not sure if it's worth the effort and time to make an attempt of clearing the smoke. What do you guys think?
>>
>>28972021
Use goat magic to levitate more gas masks and miscellaneous items off the zebras.
>>
>>28972021
Any guard belongings in here? This is the sleeping quarters.
>>
>>28972082
Yeah, that idea seems good and we'll get a workout from it too.

Nobody will be able to wake up if the smoke stays inside the place.
>>
>>28972107
And we can't lift everyone up those Stair. We could, but it would end in disaster.
>>
>>28972021
Any cash or valuable? If so take them for either our own gain or for the ponies who've been abused.

It's not a bad idea. It's just not the right time for it. Also, we don't know TK yet, sadly.
>>
>>28972021
Did the zebras Nishan answer Emmy knock out have anything relatively useful on them? Any notes or personal journals? We could learn more from reading the ledger when we don't have any pressing matters on hoof, like the smoke and unconscious ponies.

Emerald decides it's probablynot the best time to go looking through the sewers, and instead opens the grate and door wide in an attempt to clear the gas out.

It slowly starts to funnel down into the opening, and Emerald helps it along by using his push spell to force it forward. As the smoke starts to clear a bit Emerald checks the sleeping quarters for any sort of incriminating evidence.

There doesn't seem to be too manly personal effects here, but he does find a cabinet filled with unlabeled bottles. Emerald wonders if he should pilfer these, but at the same time he should probably leave them for evidence.

Other than that he finds 20 rand and 2 unopened bottles of booze.

Emerald then walks back towards the the stairs, and when he comes out of the gas cloud he hooves through the ledger.

A lot of it is written in code, but the amounts of money are there, and even in rand it seems to be quite a lot. Maybe someone else will get some use out of it.

Emerald hears a bang from up above, and spying out from the stairs he sees three zebras enter. Two are wearing strange armor and carrying large saddle packs, but Emerald recognizes the third, smaller zebra as he is wearing the same garb that Emerald spotted him in earlier today.

"Hello? Anyone there?" Bunsen asks as if he was walking in on a surprise birthday party.

Emerald calls to him, and the three zebras approach.

"Ah, good to see you well my boy. Didn't you say something about smoke?" Bunsen says with a smile.

Emerald points down the stairs, and everyone goes.

When they get to Nishan, Joyride, and Ruby most of them stop, but one continues onwards straight down into the smoke.

The zebra who didn't stop takes his pack off and pulls out a small bottle full of grainy looking rocks and begins shaking it.

"You said something about not wanting to tell the guards because you thought they may be in on this. Are you sure?" Bunsen says

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28972507
It was a guard that caused the mess you see before you.
>>
>>28972507
We are absolutely sure a guard was here it. Tell him about detective Dejen.

Also when we get the chance grab some of that booze. Emmy deserves to get shit faced tonight!
>>
>>28972507
Dejen. Was he a detective or a guard? Or, are detectives part f the guard? We saw him talking to one of the guards and asked him to fill the room with even more gas. From what we overheard from the conversation, the dosage had sound quite lethal.
>>
>>28972568
Yes, detectives are a part of the guards (or police) if he was freelance he'd be a private investigator.
>>
>>28972584
Ooohhhh. Ok.
>>
>>28972507
Im retty sure the small bottle full of grainy looking rocks are smelling salts. Not sure if Emerald knows what those are though.
>>
Tell him you saw a detective from the guard and point out how you find strange that those abduction were happening in the city for quite some time and no one got caught, only rumors about it.
>>
>>28972656
Also said detective is Dejen.
>>
>>28972667
I mean we really don't know Bunsen and his connections. I don't want to sound like I'm doubting him or anything but this is a small world. I don't know why but I feel like if we mention his name we could trigger something bad. What if Dejen is Bunsen's relative or something. I don't want to give away his name unless they ask for it.
>>
>>28972507
Say yes, we are sure. Do not mention the ledger.

We don't know if we can trust him, even just saying yes to his question might be a bad idea, but we're gonna need to go out on a limb here, we need help. The ledger can be our trump card if shit goes south with Bunsen, and woe to him and his boys if he tries to take us. If we have to protect our Wooby and Joy, I intend to do so with everything we have and then a little more.
>>
>>28972507
Ask the one with the salt if Ruby is alright. This gas is supposed to be lethal to someone of our age/size. Although IIRC Ruby's actually a bit bigger than us We pulled her out as soon as we saw her down. Try to be brave.
>>
>>28972775
Yeah but, wouldn't he have already done so? I don't see any harm in showing him the ledger.
>>
>>28972797
>wouldn't he have already done so?
Er, would who have already done what? I don't want to show him the ledger, because if Bunsen turns out to be hostile, he'll try to take it from us. If he doesn't know about it, less chance he'll take it. We might need it. Plus, it's written in code, and joy upon joy, we're playing the SMART player character. I bet Emerald could crack it himself, just a matter of time.
>>
>>28972845
Bunsen and two allies vs one foal. If he was hostile we'd be dead (or atleast KO'd) already.
>>
>>28972507
Rat out Dejen, then go nab those 20 rand and the 40 of malt liquor.
>>
>>28972507
Tell him that Detective Dejen was giving orders to the slavers and trying to have the slaves killed when we intervened. If Dejen was involved who ele could be. Ask Bunsen what's going to be the plan?
>>
>>28972890
This guy has a point, if they wanted us dead they could just up and do it.
We're foreigners, if they wanted to they could use their alchemy knowhow to melt down our remains and flush us down the sewer. No one would be the wiser.

Also grandpa zeeb here seems too soft to be involved in a sex slave trafficking market. There is probably no harm in letting them know about the leger.
>>
>>28973094
Yeah. I trust grandpa zeb.
>>
>>28972507
Hug grandpa zeeb and thank him for coming.
>>
>>28972890
>>28973094
Well thing is, he asked us if we're SURE we saw a guard here. If we say yes, then, regrettably, that makes us a witness that he can't afford to let go, child or not. So sorry.

That's the line of thinking I was running with. I admit, Bunsen doesn't strike me as the criminal type, but it's still a possibility. Based on him asking if we were sure, if he WAS associated with them, then that probably would be his train of thought. Maybe he genuinely likes us, but can't afford to let us go if we know too much.
>>
>>28972507
Ask what they are going to do for everyone unconscious?
>>
>>28973554
Yes - a possibility, but a small one. Maybe he asked if we were sure the guards were in on this out of disbelief, that the people who are supposed to serve and protect are doing anything but that. I'd ask the same thing if I were him. Plus, he probably has no means to respond to our message, hence why he asked now.

Emerald says that he is sure he saw a guard here. He even knows the name of the Guard, and says it too him.

"Hmm... I see..." Bunsen says thoughtfully.

Emerald looks behind him to see the zebra in body armor shaking the bottle from before. The zebra holds it under Ruby's nose, and she fidgets for a second before pushing it away and slowly coming too.

"What the heck..." Ruby says, getting off the zebra with a wobble.

The zebra moves to Nishan next, and then to Joyride.

"Hey quit it, I'm sleepin' here!" Joyride says as the zebra does this, laying back down on the floor and falling asleep again immediately.

Emerald shows Bunsen the ledger. After looking at it for a second he shakes his head and hands it back. He then replies,

"I can't make heads or tails of this. Why don't you hold onto it for now until we figure out what to do."

The smoke from below starts disappearing quite rapidly, and soon enough the party above can see the other zebra standing in the middle of the room holding a jar with green smoke coming out of it.

The party takes turns un-stickifying and un-foaming the knocked out zebras and cuffing them together, and then they go around reviving Loupe and the downed kidnapped ponies.

Emerald stands by Sugar Cane as the zebra wafts the smelling salts under her snout.

She starts, and then gets up slowly, and seeing Emerald says,

"H-hey, it's you... Where's Joyride? What happened?"

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28973853
"Tell her that Joyride was still fighting all the Slavers even after the gas knocked everyone else out. Ruby and myself managed to find this place and helped her take out the rest. Joyride is currently resting. Are you okay? Did they hurt you?"
>>
>>28973853
Try to save Joyride, maybe
>>
>>28973853
Tell her our teacher has insomnia problems so we took over while she got a well-earned nap.

Also, let Suger know her husband is ok.
>>
>>28973853
Let's take the opportunity to poke Joy in the butt at least a bit more, that was fun. And if it wakes her up, then succeeding will just be collateral of doing so.

Tell Sugar that our mentor is taking a bit of nap after fighting valiantly against the slavers,(and you poor souls almost bit the dust in the process, it's a good thing we didn't putz around anymore). The slavers that were holding everyone captive ended up taking a nap too, at least one of them got away.
>>
>>28973853
snoop around and try find more evidence. any lewd gear or toys that are clean that we can smuggle out?

>>28974237

You know Joyride once said there are potions out there that could make our butt bigger and more shapely.

If we want that we'll have to look for it though.
>>
>>28973853
Hey guys! Remember those two potions we found in at the inn? Well Bunsen might know what exactly the murky and puce potions do.
>show Bunsen the potions and tell the names, but ask if he knows what they do.

rump
>>
>>28977770
'Murky' and 'puce' aren't the potions names. They are just descriptors so we can tell them apart, like 'cloudy' or 'red'.

(Going in for a root canal today. This might be the only update. Depends how I'm feeling afterwards.)

Emerald takes a nearby blanket up and offers it to Sugar Cane, who takes it obligingly. Emerald asks if she is okay, and if they hurt her.

"Nah, Ah'm okay. Ms. Joyride saw to that. Unfortunate about some of the others..." Sugar Cane says with a frown, looking around.

To keep the conversation off what could have potentially happened, Emerald comments that Joyride was fighting with the slavers while she was knocked out, and is currently passed out up the stairs.

"Oh, Ah know. She wuz quite the trooper she wuz. She barely ate anything, and Ah don't think Ah saw her sleep uh wink the whole time I was here." Sugar Cane says, readjusting the blanket she is covering herself with, "It was quite the battle. Upturne furniture, spell and potion slingin' everywhere... Surprised no one died!"

Emerald suddenly remembers Sugar Cane's husband, and mentions that he is okay.

"Oh! That's wonderful to hear! The last time Ah saw him h-he..." Sugar Cane says, tearing up. She shakes her head and wipes her eyes and then continues, "Well where is he at young'n? Ah gotta go visit him."

Emerald mentions the name of the hospital, and thankfully she knows where it is.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28979536
Let's look around and try to gather more evidence.
>>
>>28979536
We'd love to let her see her husband, but I think we should note that we say private detective Dejen with the slavers. Ask her what she knows about Dejen, the guards, and thing that's relevant.
>>
>>28979536
Give her a reassuring touch on the shoulder,(or whatever would be the equivalent for horse) and go poke around the place some more. Any potential, hard evidence we can get is good.
>>
>>28979536
How did the battle get started?
>>
>>28979536
Good luck with the tooth man, that's rough
>>
>>28979536
Let's get Joy and the other back to the Inn now, If everyone is taken care of.
I think Grandpa can handle things from here.
>>
>>28979536

B-but CQ
>>
>>28979536
So, to clarify
Are we safe?
>>
>>28979925
Maybe a fan artist can draw it.
>>
>>28979940
For now I think.
>>
>>28979536
Ask Bunsen who are the two strangely armored zebras. Does he have a plan or an idea on what to do about the sex slave ponies and the corrupt guards?
>>
>>28979536
Can we have a foursome with Bunsen and his two guards?
>>
>>28979536
snoop around and try find more evidence. any worthwhile or interesting lewd gear or toys that are clean enough that we can smuggle out?
>>
>>28979536
Ask how they kidnapped her. Did they take her straight here or somewhere else first? Could she id any of them? Is the Red Stripe bar in on this?
>>
>>28980713
The Red Stripe definetly has some affiliation with the sex slave operation, either aware or not.
>>
>>28981475
I know. But I would like to see if one of the ex-slaves could confirm it.
>>
>>28981494
Seems unnecessary since that place is seedy to a fault, and those four thugs pointed us to the warehouse. And speaking of thugs, we should mention them to Bunsen.
>>
>>28979536
Mention to Bunsen that there are a few other slavers that are stuck in some foam in a alleyway not far from here.
>>
>>28979536
Go get that loot we missed earlier. Money and booze
>>
>>28981583
Fuck we gonna do with 20 rands and cheap booze? That stuffs shit anon. Chump change. There's probably a bounty or some shit for all there fuck boi. And if anythin, we got places to stay if we'really ever hear again. Those ponies better be greatful.
>>
Is anonpone down for anybody else?

>>
>>28981624
>Fuck we gonna do with 20 rands and cheap booze?
Get drunk and spend the money on more cheep booze to get drunk again.
>>
>>28983834
No cheap hookers...?
>>
>>28983834
Nah, here's a better idea. We pay a hooker with the rands and booze. A mares gotta eat, and she'll want the booze to wash down the taste.
>>
>>28983932
I think we could probably pay joy with booze to get her to spend the day teaching us magic... or for sex but I'm pretty sure we'd get that for free.
>>
>>28984161
Or make molotovs. Just stuff the neck with cloth, light it, throw it. . . .

Emerald wonders if he should say anything to stop her from leaving. Other than those speaking to Joyride or other wise thanking her for help are acting a bit confused, wondering what they should do, and if they should head home. Helpfully Bunsen speaks up at this point near the entrance to the room, flanked by one of his zebra compatriots.

"Hello, everyone. You have all been through so much recently, but we aren't sure what exactly is going on at the moment, or who we can really trust-"

"The guards are in on it!" One of the ponies says.

"Yeah, I... I recognized a few of them!" A different one says.

There is some general muttering around the room at this point, and Bunsen does his best to settle it down before continuing,

"Yes. Yes I want to get this all sorted out. Now I can't make any of you come with me, but until things get a little more sorted out you are all welcome to take sanctuary in the Marjani Chapel. You can get some well deserved rest there, and we can take statements. We'll probably want to get the Hiwot temple involved for an inquiry on the city guards as well. Maybe even some of the papers."

"What about our families?" Sugar Cane says, from beside Emerald.

"We can get word out to them from the temple." Bunsen says with a nod.

There is a general murmur of agreement from all in the room to follow Bunsen to his temple, and a few moments later Bunsen says,

"I am happy to hear that. I have sent for an escort, so it will only be a short wait and then we'll be on our way."

"Speaking of which, you may want to go wake Joyride." Nishan says from beside Emerald, startling him.

Emerald pops up and walks back up the stairs to his sleeping mentor. Emerald tries a few more times to wake her, but she stays asleep through it all. Emerald shrugs and lays on her.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28984733
How're you feeling today Fic? Didn't lose any extra teeth?

Hmm, maybe she'd wake up if we whispered sweet, sexy nothings into her ear? And then tell her she has to wake up first.
>>
>>28984733
Let's take a number from joy's book and just go to sleep.
The others will take care of the rest, it's nap time now.
Sleep on joy's butt.
>>
>>28984733
Ask someone to carry her for us.
>>
>>28984733
Time for some looting! Take what ever is valuable looking!
>>
>>28984733
Take all the unlabeled potions, the 20 rands, the 2 bottles of booze, the cards from the card game.
>>
>>28984733
Ask Bunsen if he could help us retrieve the rest of our belongings back at the Guard station.
>>
>>28984733
Check what's inside those crates and barrels.
>>
>>28984821
This, tell her all the fun and naughty things we'll do with her when we get back home If she stays up for a bit longer.
>>
>>28984733
Take back the gas mask from Joyride.
>>
>>28984733
Equip Joyride. Pony armour. We stronk erf poner.
>>
>>28984733
Play with her butt when no one is looking?
>>
>>28984733
Ask Bunsen what about Dejen as he's still somewhere out there. Also there are a few other slavers foamed together in a alleyway not far from here.
>>
>>28984733
Ask for some help carrying Joyride. Maybe Ruby and us could accompany Bunsen to the Hiwat temple.
>>
>>28984733
Where are the cufeed/ apprehended zebras?
>>
>>28984733
Tell Bunsen about the hatch to the sewer. Should we check down there in case there are other slaves or slavers?
>>
>>28984270
Molotovs are made with gasoline. Something high proof like Everclear might work, but cheap booze would have too much water to burn.

Emerald tries to whisper sexy promises in her ear to wake her, and even tries to lift her himself. However he can't get more than her head off the ground. He rests his head under hers and pretends that he has "equipped" her, but then quickly stops.

Not sure of what else to do, he lies next to her.

After a minute or two he hears some clopping behind him and a voice say,

"Uh... What are you doing?"

It's Ruby, and she comes up close and pokes both Emerald and Joyride.

Emerald explains that he is trying to get into Joyride's mind in order to figure out how to move her.

"We could just ask someone to carry her for us."

Emerald doesn't respond to Ruby's remark, and a few seconds later he hears some movement from beside him. Looking sideways he sees that Ruby has joined him on the ground.

A minute or two of this and they both get up and start looking around for anything to loot. Emerald takes the booze and rand he found earlier, but other than that there really isn't much to take. Most of the crates are nailed shut, and the few boxes that are around contain trash or things like nails and screws. Emerald does however remember to take the gas mask off Joyride. Who knows when they could be useful!

Emerald goes back downstairs, and seeing Bunsen walks up to him and tells him about the grate that leads to the sewer. Asking if it should be checked out.

"A secret exit, hmm? Yes, it is probably a good idea to check it out, but let us do it. We'll send someone down once we get our escort." Bunsen says kindly.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28985352
let's look around and see if we can find any sexual toys or gear. This is a brothel is it not?
>>
>>28985352
Ask Bunsen what about Dejen as he's still somewhere out there. Also there are a few other slavers foamed together in a alleyway not far from here.
>>
>>28985352
>. We'll send someone down once we get our escort." Bunsen says kindly.

So who's left here? Just you and the other armored zebra? What if Dejen and some more slavers come back?
>>
>>28985366
>This is a brothel is it not?
Its more of a place where they ship the slaves.
Since this is a trafficking racket I don't think they have stuff like sex toys like a brothel. The zeebs just come here to test the product, they probably don't get charmed and seduced like with regular prostitutes.
This is just slave rape.
>>
>>28985352
Thank Bunsen for all he's doing
>>
>>28985352
Fine, ask Nishan if she can pick up joyride and help us take her back to the Inn.
>>
>>28985352
Ask if we could have help taking Joyride to either the temple or the inn.
>>
>>28985352
Tell Bunsen and Nishan that a lot of our stuff is in the custody of the guards. We are going to need to get it back.
>>
>>28985583
Did we really leave all our shit at the station?
>>
>>28985615
I think we did. We only brought some stuff with us when we left.
>>
>>28985583
>>28985615
>>28985622
We more than likely have our pack with us. Ruby has basically nothing but the clothes on her back. The only thing we left at the station was Joy's bag, and considering she carries most of her belonging in her mantel, I doubt there is much of value in there bar the few dozen sex toys we found when we dug through it.

Emerald mentions to Bunsen that Dejen escaped, and asks the zebra if he thinks he'll return. With Joyride knocked out they don't exactly have the fighting force they did before.

"Oh, I wouldn't worry so much about that. With the influence I have in this city someone like Dejen isn't likely going to bring a force of guards against me suddenly. And if he tries to bring some thugs, well... Let's just say I may be old, but I have a bit of fight in me still." Bunsen says, giving some playful jabs to Emerald's shoulder.

Emerald purses his lips. He wants to believe that, but Bunsen is rather small and scrawny looking. Emerald almost wonders if he could take him. Of course he is a great alchemist, perhaps he has a trick up his sleeve? Emerald smiles, and then thanks Bunsen for all he's done and excuses himself.

Emerald takes the last few minutes to search for any "fun" toys or gear, however there doesn't seem to be any in the area. Perhaps you were expected to bring your own if you wanted to use them on the unfortunate ponies.

While he works the colt reflects on how he and Ruby were allowed to take all there things when they left the police station, but had to leave Joyride's stuff behind. He wonders if she'll miss is. There didn't appear to be anything that special in there. Hopefully there wasn't.

Emerald, who had been searching in the large spool in the guard bedroom, hears the trotting of hooves above, and looking down the corridor sees Bunsen and the ponies walk upstairs. Emerald abandons his search and follows, and sees an odd congregation of armored ponies and clergymen. Some of them wearing vestments of both, and about thirty strong. Emerald is sure no one would harass them on the way back to the Marjani Temple. Bunsen is giving this group orders, and when he sees Emerald he turns to him and says,

"We are going to leave soon."

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>28985782
Ask if there's something we could do to help?
>>
>>28985782
I guess it's time to go.
We could all use a good nap.
>>
>>28985782
Mention to Bunsen that Nishan and Loupe foamed up a few other slavers in a alleyway not far from here. What should we do with those?
>>
>>28985782
Seriously. Ask maybe Sugar, Cane Loupe, or Nishan to carry Joyride.
>>
>>28985782
Ask one of these strapping young stallions to carry our beloved teacher.

Also, is Bunsen gonna pull some kinda Master Roshi and hulk out?
>>
>>28986568
I would not be surprised if he could pull a Bruce Banner, by taking out a potion.
>>
>>28986568
Potions. Potions are probably his trick up his sleeve. Hell, he might even have one to "hulk out" so to speak.
>>
Get a room

I bet we're missing something, but I don't know what it is.

>>28985782
Ask if maybe ourself, Ruby and our master could stay at the temple for a while? At least until she wakes up. Uh, we're gonna need some help carrying her out.

Emerald mentions that they found some of the slavers near a back alley by the Red Stripe. Finding them is how they found this place.

"I see! I'll have some of my men get them once we return everyone to the temple." Bunsen says with a smile.

Emerald looks to Joyride, and wonders if they are going to be able to wake her up. As if this thought floated out of his head some of the nearby ponies offer to take her, but Nishan scoops her up and puts the unicorn on her back first.

"You've all been through enough for now. I can handle this." Nishan says.

Emerald can't help but notice that some of the mares go dreamy eyed at this, notably Loupe.

A few moments later they are all out the door. Bunsen leaves one of his cohorts behind, telling him to stick to the shadows in case anyone returns and then to report whatever transpires.

Bunsen takes the lead, along with two other armored zebras. Every few feet or so are another pair of zebras flanking the ponies who are all gathered in the middle, much like a fence surrounds and guards the animals within. The whole group is surprisingly quiet, perhaps because the sight of the escort makes everyone feel like they aren't all quite out of danger yet. Emerald can't help but chuckle a bit as they pass onlookers on the street, most of whom give a confused, curious look. One even has the courage to attempt to hit on one of the ponies within, only to be shot down by a glance from one Bunsen's stallions.

Emerald catches up with the head shaman and asks what sort of tricks he has up his sleeve. He even asks if he has a potion that will make him huge and muscly.

"I do actually have one of those!" Bunsen says with a laugh, "But as for my really secret surprises I'm afraid I don't want to reveal too much. No offense meant, it's just that a surprise attack can be the difference between winning and losing."

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>29002520
What's with the weird posts last couple o days, senpaitachi?

Anyway, let's see Nishan and our group to an inn safely, get Joy all tucked in, safeguard her til she wakes up. We guarded her as she slept last time, I want to do it again. Let`s make it a thing.

Emerald asks if there are other potions for body modification.

"Yes, there are lot's! Weight loss potions are pretty popular recently, but you have to be careful with those." Bunsen says with a laugh.

Emerald asks what is going to happen with the Red Stripe. There is obviously something going on there.

"I'm not sure yet, lil' buddy. It could be that the Red Stripe is in on the whole thing, or it could be that the slavers simply liked doing business at the bar. There will have to be an investigation." Bunsen says with a frown, thinking.

Emerald thanks the zebra for everything he has down so far, and gives the elderly stallion a hug.

"Ah, you are a good boy, you are." Bunsen says, rubbing Emerald on the head again.

Emerald stays mostly quiet at this point until they reach the temple. At this point it is early in the evening, and the University's gates have been shut up. The party has to wait a few minutes until they can get a guard's attention, and the doors are opened and they are let inside. It didn't occur to Emerald at the time, but the whole complex is very much like a fortress.

Everyone is directed into the worship hall, and blankets are distributed out. Some of the zebras, now minus there armor, come from the back room with a large pot and begin throwing vegetables and water into it, heating it with some sort of fire potion beneath the huge cook wear. This is all fine and good by most of the ponies in attendance, as no one looks ready to sleep save for Joyride, who is knocked out nearby.

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>29003028
Let's get some sleep and check on Joy and the others in the morning.
>>
>>29003028
I'm not sure how tired Emmy is after the fight. Maybe we can practice some alchemy, read into the alchemy book, or practice magic.
>>
>>29003028
Take out the Brothel Ledger and try to decipher it. ROLL
>>
>>29003028
Does the temple accept donations?
>>
>>29003028
Let's have a snugglefest
Rest up a little
>>
>>29003028
Ask Sugar Cane if she would like to write anything to her husband via the dragonfire lamp.
>>
>>29003028
Tuck in momma Joyride in her blankey and make a pony burrito.
>>
>>29003028
So how does the manly filly feel after the fighting with the zebras. Well, before she ate dirt.
>>
>>29003028
Let's have a little practice with the Glamour spell. Ask someone for a mirror. Please.
>>
>>29003028
We should thank these fine young zebras for helping everyone. *wink wink nudge nudge*
>>
>>29003028
Ask Bunsen if he'll fill in what the missing ingredients are for the potions we know.

After getting a little soup and consuming it, Emerald finds himself wide awake. He looks over to see Joyride still passed out. He gets out and tucks Joyride in a little better than she was, and then sits back down and spots Ruby.

Ruby looks back, and Emerald asks how she thinks her first fight went.

"What, before passing out? Fine I guess. I really didn't get to do much though." Ruby says with a frown, taking her knife out and looking it over, "It was kind of scary, wasn't it?"

Emerald nods, and then getting an idea whips out the ledger. He'll try to decipher it. It probably is a crucial piece of evidence, if only it can be cracked.

Ruby walks over with her blanket and plops down next to Emerald, and after asking what he is doing responds,

"Looks like gibberish to me, but if there is anyone who can figure it out it's you."

I have the feeling that this will bite us in the ass later but sure

Confort ruby and tell her that you didn't get to do much on your first fight either

Aww that's sweet of her. Definitely boost that shit.

Well I for one think he was probably hopped up on drugs from the dentist, but man does it make me laugh and be a bit worried to think about how loopy he probably was from it all.
>>
>>29003248
Make sure to tell Bunsen about the other shipments.
>>
>>29005575
Makes me wonder if they're already gone or not, but it's definitely worth at least mentioning to Bunsen.

Pray to the great trap colt in the sky and how you're able to decipher the ledger.

Maybe we should think of Mahajani for inspiration before deciphering.

Why the fuck not? Yeah let's dooo this!

Emmy should try praying to Mahajani for guidance and inspiration. It couldn't help to try could it? And if that doesn't get results try asking the necklace.

Let's give praying to Mahajani for inspiration in getting the ledger deciphered. The old zebra said it worked for him right?

Emerald can't claim to be an expert cryptographer, but he finds decoding the book quite a quick process, taking him little over an hour.

It's a simple cipher, it simply replaces a letter of the zebra alphabet with another letter, and then transposes them forward in the zebra alphabet about five places.

It was especially simple when he figured out Dejen's name, and then used it to cross check other names and places on the list.

"Oh hey, neat." Ruby says, when Emerald announces it's completion to her and holds it to her face, "so does that mean we can go arresting people now?"

Emerald ponders this thoughtfully, and then seeing Bunsen appear from the backroom and walk up to the people speaking around the pot gets an idea.

Taking the book and the notes he scrawled down on a piece of parchment, he rushes over to Bunsen and shows the zebra his work.

"My goodness Emerald. You've already done this much? I must admit myself to be quite-" Bunsen says, stopping suddenly. His eyes are staring at an entry, and he goes back and forth between Emerald's translation and the proper ledger.

Hearing his sudden pause, some of his associates join him, as well as Nishan. A sudden muttering whisper breaks out among them.

Bunsen turns the book back to Emerald and pointing to a name that reads "Adesola" and says, "Are you sure about this one?"

Emerald was sure, but having Bunsen point out something makes him hesitate a little. He nods his head, and the whispering continues.

"Hmm... This is unfortunate..." Bunsen says, "Adesola is, well, quite a powerful politician in these parts. This will require some finesse. Thank you, Emerald. You have been a great help."

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>29011560
The conspiracy runs deep, guess its time to go crash for the night
>>
>>29011560
>The little bookworm uses his brain and succeeds.
Damn does it feel good to use that big brain of his in a successful roll.

We should make a fake copy of this ledger, this seems too valuable to leave one of.
>>
>>29011560
>>29011579
Yeah. Maybe we can make a duplicate with all the important notes.
>>
>>29011560
Do not give up the ledger. Perhaps we could scribe up a copy. Once again, this runs well within Em's skillset. Perhaps when Joy wakes up, we can ask if she can create a magical duplicate. A perfect replica would be better proof
>>
>>29011677
>Perhaps when Joy wakes up, we can ask if she can create a magical duplicate. A perfect replica would be better proof
It's funny that you mention that, cause I was actually gonna suggest pretty much the same thing.
>>
>>29011560
Let's practice magic for a while, and when Joyride wakes up we can ask her is she knows a way to quickly duplicate the ledger.
>>
>>29011677
Now what's the point of scribbling up a copy if we can ask Joyride to do it?
>>
>>29011712
I wasn't suggesting we do both, it was more me typing out a train of thought. We oughta do one or the other. Just laying out options.
>>
>>29011560
Ask who Adesola is? A governor? Mayor?
>>
>>29011712
Actually, to further that train of thought, the more copies of that ledger is honestly the better.
>>
>>29011560
Who is Adesola? Would he or she try to harm us here? Is there something we can do to help?
>>
>>29011778
I bet it's the zebra we fucked with during the orgy.
>>
>>29011806
Now wouldn't that be a bitch? There was some mentioning of an ambassador, right? I can't remember.
>>
>>29011560
Ask if Adesola is any more politically powerful than Bunsen, and if there's anything else Emerald can do to help (did we get those guys in the alley?)
>>
>>29011813
>>29011806

"Then there is Jaheem, the diplomat. A bit of a crazy guy but he is powerful both here and in his home country."

http://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/25984187/#25994370

Probably a different Zebra.
>>
>>29011858
Alright. Think it might be worth ask Bunsen about the diplomat?

>>29011560
Ask Bunsen about the diplomat.
>>
>>29011858
Damn. That would have been an interesting development...
>>
>>29011908
Unless Jaheem is his first name or just the pony version of his name.
>>
>>29011908
There is always the slim chance that Jaheem could be an alias for Adesola or something. Not likely, but it's still possible. We'd know more certainly if we got to see him.
>>
>>29011898
>>29011858
>>29011560

Maybe Jaheem could be able to help us? He has political power and influence. Is there a way contact him?
>>
>>29011938
>>29011560
This might be a good idea. If Jaheem is powerful then maybe a political ally is what we need to stop Adesola.
>>
>>29011976
And there is a chance we could use the power of sexual persuasion.
>>
>>29011560
>Thank you, Emerald. You have been a great help."

Smile and ask what else we can do to help?
>>
>>29011996
Yes. So much yes.

Emerald wonders if he should make some copies of the ledger. Sure, they wouldn't be as legitimate as the real thing, but it'd be nice to have in case the original is lost.

Emerald plays with the idea that maybe Joyride could create copies for him, but the colt doesn't want to wake up the unicorn if he can help it. He supposes he could wait until tomorrow when she is awake.

Emerald asks who Adesola is, and if he is more powerful than Bunsen.

"Mmm... I'd say he carries about the same influence as I do, though in different areas. His father is an ambassador to the pony lands and powerful politically. From what I understood Adesola is set to take up after his father." Bunsen says frowning, "Neither of them will be happy when this surfaces."

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>29012030
Sounds like the kind of knowledge apt to make a pony disappear.
>>
>>29012030
And his father is..?
>>
>>29012030
Yeah. Who's papa zeeb?
>>
>>29012030
>His father is an ambassador to the pony lands and powerful politically.

That ambassador wouldn't be Jaheem would it?
>>
>>29012071
I was pondering the same thing,(boy would that complicate things). It'd be funny to know that depravity runs in the family.
>>
>>29012030
What time is it again?
>>
>>29012030
I think it might be wise to tell Bunsen, that if and when he goes public with what happened, to leave our names anonymous.
>>
>>29012071
>>29012030
If he asks how we know him mention that Jaheem hired our teacher once.
>>
>>29012030
I think we better work on scribing it immediately, ask Joy to copy it magically later. We need more copies post haste, and I don't want to sleep until we have at least one.
>>
>>29012030
I wonder if Dejen went to Adesola for help...
>>
>>29012030
Tell Bunsen that Dejen mentioned shipments. There might be more ponies sent elsewhere.
>>
>>29012030
Ask Bunsen if he thinks the Guard station is safe enough to go and retrieve the rest of our belongings. All the guards can't be in on this slavery business, can they?

Emerald asks who Adesola's father is.

"His name is Jaheem." Bunsen says.

Emerald doesn't recognize the name at first, but visions of a certain foursome reappear in his mind, and the colt realizes that he was the rude zebra diplomat from back in Whiterwater.

Emerald asks if he could maybe remain anonymous in his report about the whole slaver thing. Between Jaheem and his wanted posters he is sure that it wouldn't be a good idea.

"If you'd like, yes. With the ledger you have given us plenty of evidence to follow up on." Bunsen says with a beam.

Emerald tells Bunsen that there might have been other shipments of slaves.

"Yes... It is unfortunate, but for the moment they may be out of our reach. We need to clean house a bit before we can go chasing after the other unfortunate victims of this whole ordeal...." Bunsen says, nodding with a frown, his eyes closed in anger.

Emerald is about to ask about a connection between Dejen and Adesola, when he let's out a loud yawn.

"Now now, you've helped enough for today, Emerald. Get some sleep, I assure you we will still be working on this in the morning." Bunsen says, patting him on the shoulder.

Even if he was sleepy, Emerald doesn't want to stop talking about the kidnappings. However he recognizes that he is dismissed, and lays down on the carpet and wraps himself up, falling asleep pretty quickly.

---

Emerald awakes early the next day under a beam of warm sunlight. He looks up to the quiet scene before him, with ponies wrapped snuggly in blankets all around. There is only one other pony who is awake.

"Hey Lil' Perv." Joyride says, giving him a wave.
>>
>>29014870
Maybe I'm imagining things, but her eye bags look more pronounced than normal. The fights this past week or two must have really taken it out of her.
>>
>>29014870
Hug big perv again!
>>
>>29014870
Ask her how she got kidnapped.
>>
>>29014870
Ask if she enjoyed her nap; she doesn't seem to get much sleep.
>>
>>29014870
Hug that bitch. Ask her what happened and apologize for taking so long to find her; we weren't sure something was wrong for certain until it'd been more than a couple days. Disappearing for a bit seemed within your character, but not for that long.
>>
>>29014870
Hey big perv, couldn't resist the chance to spend some time with a bunch of young zebra studs, could you?
>>
>>29014963
I second the motion to say this.
>>
>>29014870
Hug her and give her a kiss. Tell joyride everything we've learned and happened.
>>
>>29014870
Tell Joyride that one of her bags is still at the guard station.
>>
>>29014870
See if Ruby and Emerald could still visit the Hiwat temple.

Emerald springs up and gives Joyride a hug, and asks her if her sleep was okay.

"I'm fine. I don't really sleep all that much unless I use too much magic. How long was I even fighting? Something like a full day right?" Joyride says, grinning and obviously trying to sound unconcerned about her feat.

Emerald says it was indeed about that long or longer. He says that Ruby and himself did everything they could to find her. Nishan and Loupe as well. H then asks how she even got kidnapped in the first place.

"Well, I wasn't really kidnapped. You saw those guys at that bar I was with? They asked if I wanted to have a little fun, ya know? We bar hop a few places, and then end up at that warehouse. I thought it was some sort of orgy, but by the time I had my fun and was ready to leave they were gassing the heck out of me. Now I'm pretty resistant to poisons, but spray enough at me and eventually I'll go down." Joyride says with a sigh and a shrug.

Emerald quips that she just couldn't resist the chance to spend some time with a bunch of young zebra studs, could she?

"Nope." Joyride says, unashamedly.

Emerald asks if she got his letters.

"Possibly? If I did I wasn't paying attention enough to see them. I was kinda busy." Joyride says with a grin and a shrug.

Emerald then mentions that they left her bag at one of the guard stations.

"Ah, that's okay. That ones mostly for show anyway. I think the most valuable thing I had in there were some sex potions, so no big loss." Joyride says with a second shrug.

Emerald smiles, and then asks if maybe she wants to go visit the Hiwot temple or something. Do something fun.

"I'm thinking about finding Loupe and Nishan, getting my honey, and then getting out of here. If you want to stay another day to take in some sights though that's cool too."

What does Emerald do?
>>
>>29015406
Show off our new dress to Joyride!

Also as a side note, ask if it's possible for an earth pony like us to learn telekinesis like unicorn do and if she could show us sometime.
Something like that could be useful for multitasking when where saving her ass again.
>>
>>29015406
Give the 'lady' her sex potions back.
>>
>>29015486
Ask what they do first and get the recipes. They might come in handy sometime...besides during lewds of course.
But also very much during lewds.
>>
>>29015406
>I'm thinking about finding Loupe and Nishan, getting my honey, and then getting out of here
I'm actually sick of this place too. Let head out.
>>
>>29015681
After we finish with current business
>>
>>29015406
Yeah ive had enough of this place for a lifetime
>>
>>29015406
Let's get some fried bananas before we hit the road. Where's breakfast?
>>
>>29015406
Ask Joy if she can make a copy or two of the ledger.
>>
>>29015406
Yeah where is Loupe and Nishan anyways?
>>
>>29015406
Tell Joyride that we are proud of her on how she protected the slaves. Tell her that she was awesome!
>>
>>29015681
seconding this, lets just help a bit more them leave the rest for them, just in case of the religious Zebra being ready to backstab us
>>
>>29015406
Show her the ledger, ask what she makes of it. Personally I think we should stay another day, because if we're needed to help free any other slaves that might still be out there, then I am down as fuck for that. I don't think Emmy would want to leave people in the life he fled from if he could in any way help it.
>>
>>29015938
Now that you mention that, we might even get a lead on our step-parents' activities and potentially undermine them in some way. We could actually start making good on our promise of revenge if we uncover something connected to them. I support this idea.
>>
>>29015406
let's stay another day. We want to visit Hiwat temple and also what if Bunsen needs our help with something.
>>
>>29015406
Grandpa said he had the rest handled and I'm ready to move on to other things.
Once we copy the document let's warp out of here.
>>
>>29015934
>just in case of the religious Zebra being ready to backstab us

Why would they? Bunsen and the others have proven to be trust worthy and nice to us.
>>
>>29015406
>Emerald quips that she just couldn't resist the chance to spend some time with a bunch of young zebra studs, could she?
>"Nope." Joyride says, unashamedly.

Kinda wish we had fun with a nice Zebra stud too. Maybe one could be arranged?
>>
So are we going to help with the slavery thing or are we leaving?
>>
>>29016054
I'd like to help if we could. But at the same time I don't want more factions after us too.
>>
>>29015406
Sure, it would be nice to help with with the slavery problem, but would Joyride want to get involved? I doubt it.
>>
>>29016054
Besides making some copies of the ledger there really isn't anything else we can help with.
Bunsen is a pretty reasonable guy so and probably won't let a foreigner and especially not a child have part in a investigation like this. It's part of the problem of still being a kid.

The rest is up to them.
>>
>>29015406
Ask Joyride if we can schedule some time alone as we would like to do something to properly celebrate her safety.
>>
>>29016033
I'm fine with staying the day, but what could we possible do to help? Is Emmy gonna kick down the door of every home in search of slavery? I doubt it.

Just go to the temple and be done with this place.
>>
>>29016096
We can celebrate with her using that booze we got, when we get back home.
It'll be fun.
>>
>>29016059
At the very least I want to make Dejen suffer, if we can find him.
>>
>>29015406
Ask Joyride if we can finally get a compass to find her.
>>
>>29015406
Tell Joy that Nishan and Loupe are around as they helped us find her too.
>>
>>29015406
We can leave after we visit the Hiwat temple. Also give Joyride the potions we got from her bag. Ask what they do.
>>
>>29015406
Ask where we can get some body mod potions like making one's butt bigger or gaining muscles for example.
>>
>>29015406
Tell her we are a bit envious that we had no fun with a zebra stud. Maybe we could correct that sometime either here or back home.

Emerald asks if he could learn telekinesis like the unicorns do.

"You could, though it wouldn't come as naturally or as easily as it would a unicorn. You have to remember that unlike earth or pegasus ponies, unicorns just naturally learn how to levitate things, sort of like how most creatures just naturally learn to walk." Joyride says, brushing off her mantle.

Emerald asks if she can make some copies of the ledger he found in the slaver's basement, and after looking around a bit asks if she saw where Loupe and Nishan went.

"Make copies? I guess I could yeah." Joyride says, taking the book from Emerald, zapping it with some magic, and making five copies fall from out of nowhere, "As for Nishan and Loupe, they went back to their office. You were already asleep when they left I believe."

Emerald asks when Joyride is going to have that compass ready that tells him where she is.

"Oh right." Joyride says, reaching into her mantle and pulling out a compass not unlike the one he had seen Hope with. The only difference is that this one is the color of his mane, "I kept meaning to give it to you but then I would forget. I guess it would have been useful to have considering the recent events, huh?"

The colt remarks that it would indeed have.

Emerald gives her back her potions, and then asks if he could learn the recipe for them sometime.

"Yeah sure. I think I have the book in my library somewhere. You can check when we get back." Joyride replies.

Emerald asks what they are going to do about the slavers, and how they can help.

"Ugh. Just let them handle it. I'm sure Bunsen will handle it fine. Maybe. I dunno. Either way I don't really care to be honest." Joyride says.

What does Emerald do?

It'd be nice to at least visit Hiwat or get a few of the harder to acquire potions before we go.
>>
>>29016213
Oh common joy
Aren't you a little mad at them for trying to kill you?
>>
>>29016305
I don't believe we got the chance to tell her that they assumed the dosage they would use on her would probably kill her, at least that's what the zebras thought.
>>
>>29016213
>"Either way I don't really care to be honest."
Ohh Joyride. You're so icy sometimes. I really think we oughta at least check in with Bunsen and make sure there's nothing we can do. Give him a copy of the ledger for sure.
>>
>>29016213
It's loking to be a pretty close race; I for one, think we should stay and at least make Suger and her husband are ok.

"So, wanna come with me, or should I give you a message when I'm done?" Joyride says, holding out a hoof.

Emerald says that he wants to make sure the slave business ends here.

"If you want to keep up to date about it ask someone here to write you letters." Joyride says, standing up, clearly ready to head out.

Emerald looks around. Perhaps because of the sound of the conversation, the ponies around them have been awakening one by one. Emerald spots Sugar Cane sit up and yawn. After asking for Joyride to wait a moment, Emerald approaches the waitress.

"Hmm? Can Ah help ya, honey?" Sugar Cane says, holding back a yawn.

Emerald says that they are going to be leaving soon, and that he would appreciate it if she could keep him up to date about the investigations on the slavers. She agrees to, and they swap addresses and information to be sure they can keep in touch.

"Ah wish Ah could make yew something nice for dinner before yew left, but mah kitchen is gone... Hey, Ah'm a gonna go visit mah husband today. Come by later and give us a proper goodbye!" Sugar says with a wide smile.

Emerald says he will, and then returns to Joyride. The unicorn prods Ruby until she wakes up, and then they all make off. Joyride leads they way, having been told the address of the destination by Nishan and Loupe.

As they walk, Joyride stops in front of a store selling coffee.

"Hey, how about some breakfast?" Joyride says.

They enter, and Joyride goes straight for the counter and order some breakfast. That's not the end of everything the unicorn wants to buy.

"What sort of beans would you get a pony who never stops drinking coffee." She says.

The shopkeep, who to Emerald's slight surprise is another pony says, "Oh we all have sorts of beans? Do you want a blend or flavored coffee? Perhaps single origin? We sell tea as well."

"Ah jeez. Go find something nice for a pony who likes coffee too much while I figure this out. You'll need a present too."

What does Emerald do?

Tell Joyride that we are a slight bit envious that she had a zebra stud all to herself. Maybe once we get back we could arrange to have one if any is around.
>>
>>29017281
Hmm, let's find a funny mug. With a catchy quip on it.
Some creamer might be nice too, I'd go with almond flavored.

This too.>>29017300
>>
>>29017281
Ask the mare if she knows an alchemy recipes that use coffee. And if they sell any coffee related deserts like coffee cake. Let's buy Sugar's husband something nice when we go to visit.
>>
>>29017281
Does she sell magic beans?
>>
>>29017281
Can the mare running the register tell if we're a colt or filly? (Think the trait will apply to her?)
>>
>>29017281
Maybe there's a special mug or brewer we could by for a super coffee addict.
>>
>>29017385
I think I got lost in this one. Who is the one addicted to coffee we know?
>>
>>29017441
We don't, but Joyride knows someone.
>>
Test
>>
>>29017281
Ask who the coffee is for.
>>
>>29017441
I don't know a pony that likes coffee but I know a pony [named] Coffee that [also] happens to partake in sexual activities against her will like Emerald used to.
>>
>>29017557
who was that
>>
>>29017281
Find him a mug that says coffee is my spirit animal.
>>
>>29017281
Ask Joyride where we can get some body mod potions like making one's butt bigger or gaining muscles for example.

Ask Joyride if coffee makes her coffee.
>>
>>29018471
While we're at it we should get something more useful for our "needs" like an age up potion, a gender swap potion, a potion to make us have enhanced energy so we can fuck by days on end [spoiler/] and shit that could be used for more then one, sugestive or not, reason like that.
>>
>>29018614
It's already been established multiple times that potions with effects like 'age up' and 'gender swap' are too dangerous for us to try using due to potion sickness.
>>
>>29018614
Fuck. Forgive my newbieness using spoiler tags...
>>
>>29018631
It's estabilished that is dangerous in high dosages. "It's not really that dangerous. Probably, maybe. I don't know."
>>
>>29017281
Seduce the mare manning the register!
>>
>>29017281
Definitely ask about coffee potions.
>>
>>29018471
lets not do this

Emerald is a cute
