Last time on Timequest, Nero and Honey had succeed in disposing of their Eon clones Claw had prepared for a final trap, and ascended to Luke's chamber where he was in the midst of defeating Dark Sterling. After sharing one last exchange of words, Dark Sterling mutated into a new Eonspawn resembling a tremendous ten-legged lizard, tearing out pieces of the chamber and letting in an eery green glow from an adjacent chamber. The creature attacked ferociously, a last ditch effort to kill the heroes...

Meanwhile, Southern and Plasm surmised that the true 'bomb' threatening G-777 was in fact Commander Jazz, a mutant with the power of a sun locked away by a med-pod that Claw could have hidden a trigger into go haywire. Southern revealed she was capable of providing a dress to guard against the deadly solar radiation, and so a doctor was tasked to go into the chamber as the rest of LEvel-3 evacuated to see if the amplifier could be removed.

Finally, Onyxia finished sealing the tunnels leading to Big Green's lair, and returned to the Dogs whom she opted in to go down to the ruins of Everfree City to begin collecting her own Shiny pile rather than take from the Trail.

Plasm grunts, "I put myself in danger every day, I signed up for it when I joined as member of the guard. I realize there are risks but I'm willing to-"
>"Actually, Plasm... she might not have a bad idea." Geigaro comments.
>"Things go badly down here? We can't afford to lose both of us. You should go up to Level 2 and I'll let you know when I know if it's working alright or not."
>The griffon in the computer screen turns towards the communications room, where you saw the series of machines with G.E.I.G.A.R.-0 printed on the side, and comments, "I can't leave this floor, so you have to. If I need ANY help, I'll give you a ring, dig?"
Plasm purses his lips, looking at the door to Jazz's pod, and sighs. "I want everyone else off with me. We'll use the same way we got back, everyone who isn't needed down here goes with us. Will we be able to communicate with the doctor?"
>"I've ran tests on your dress Southern, that thing actually holds up just fine against our tests! Any radio equipment the doc brings in with her should be safe."
"...alright. But I'm going back down the moment something's wrong, dangerous or not."

>>(Onyxia)
Red snickers, "Well, that real considerate of you. Need to stop that! Danger Dogz never that considerate!" He laughs as he slaps you harshly on the back, letting out more than a few laughs as he looks at the way back out of the Danger House towards the city. "Well then, if you want to get going collecting shinies, we'd better move out there and get collecting. Take any longer and you'll be wanting a nap before you get to working."

Steel smirks, "Well, I could do with a bit more hair. And skin. But otherwise yes, perfect. I don't recall agreeing to be added to any 'piles' though." He looks towards the tunnel exit, "Well, shall I escort you to the city then to collect your own 'shinies'? It was a ways back there, if we're going to get there soon we'd better move."

>>(Luke)
Luke charges forth with the bat and knocks off a huge chunk of one of its legs clear to the other side of the chamber, but another one comes sweeping by to counter-attack you and hits harshly against your side, cracking bone
>Brotherhood, 0/3

Jean thrashes other parts of the metallic Eon-lizard and gouges out huge swaths of its metal and Eonspawn shell, bits of it falling off of its own accord elsewhere, but the electrical feedback shocks Jean through its assault (2/2 Jean).

You and Jean manage to avoid some of the arcs of electricity, but others hit you due to your proximity to the creature, and you feel scraps of metal beginning to gravitate towards you
>Brotherhood and Jean have +2 to being hit by the enemy's attacks for 1 turn and 5 turns respectively

>>(Nero)
>+3 Nero, +2 everyone else
>*Correction on Health: 10/4
You continue hacking at the slump of Dark Sterling's base, trying to free the clone from the rest of the body, and you make significant progress, slicing it to about the mid-way point at the trunk as the monster howls and poises its lightning blasts at you, but you effortlessly block it with a quick raise of the shield.

>>(Honey)
The arcs of electricity zip past you, your nimble breezie form bobbing and weaving through the blasts as you round yourself up to get a clear shot at the creature. Your rings fly out at it and surround its large form, beginning to shrink its size to that of one of the Eonts as the ray reduces its size immensely
>Shrunk for 4 turns

After it's shrunk, the creature turns on Jean, Luke, and Nero, whipping its tail to strike them both despite its shrunken state

Honey keeps the pressure on, gathering up magic energy like she used to with the raygun. But now it just forms in front of her like an unstable-looking ball instead of being fired out like a beam/ray. Unsure what to do, she shoulder charges the ball into Dark Sterling.

Southern nods to the stairs. "Fantastic, now let's move until it's all clear."

Nero slides off the shrinking Sterling, raising His shield again to block the tail, only to be knocked backwards. He rushes forward and slashes the far smaller Eonspawn.

"Can't help it, that's just how Danger Ponies are."
Onyxia chuckles in response, or she would before stumbling forward from Red's slap on the back.
"Yea, I'm feeling beat already, not even sure I'll make it through this hunting."
She says, feeling the exhaustion of her tunnel transmute.

Onyxia nods to Steel.
"You may," She replies as she stands back up, feeling a bit better, "Hopefully we don't run into anything this time when we're out there."

[natural remedy's helpless immunity activates for brotherhood]
[Brotherhood takes damage from current attack

A short moment after Luke had swung his back, inbetween the time it took him to raise it again he relaxes his arms holding the bat. "Jeez, man, this is tiring when you're sober. Think my kao ken burnt me out. No hang over though, feeling just right, really crystal clear over here like a natural spring." LukeWarm's heorically short attentionspan takes over him as he jumps into an anecdote "Y'know what this reminds me of. I saw these huge, butch dykes at one of those depositories for seminal fluid. And well when I hear about that of course I went 'well I gotta cash in on that' unfortunately I couldn't find a course with a four year trajectory for semen expert so I just took a field-trip to the bank. Anyways, yeah I was saying" Luke touches the end of his bat to the ground and leans on it as he shoots the shit. "Two hamplanets eclipsed the florescent lighting and I gotta look up have the velvet current pulled off this whole establishment. The carpetvore caught me staring just a little too long however. I think I triggered it's fight or flight instincts through eye contact, she asks me what the fuck I'm looking at so I kinds say without thinking I realized how glad I was I didn't pay taxes. This seemed'ta pull her hamstrings cuz because the second after she told me she'd need a tax refund if I'm donating. She's so fucking stupid though I had to inform it wasn't my semen I was peddling. And once again I got into another cruise control argument over dinner-politics."
>Word of Power: In combat, forces an enemy to miss their next attack and renders them helpless on a crit. Outside combat, can extract information on a success.

Plasm lets out one last sigh, before pulling at his radio. "Alright then, let's get too it." he speaks into it,
"This is Captain Plasm, going out to all teams: we're evacuating Level 3 entirely, go back down through the tunnels to Level 2. We'll stay in radio contact as our volunteer, Dr. Mito, takes Jazz out of containment in the Medical ward. We have one team of shield-units on stand-by in case something goes wrong, the rest of us will keep a close ear from up top. Everyone keep performing well, we'll be done with this soon." He takes a deep breath, looking at the mutant doctor who wears your sun-proof gown as she gives it a few more tugs just to make sure it's secure (you note she seems to blushing, not really used to this sort of outfit). After she gives a hesitant nod, Plasm grabs your hoof and you go to Level 2.

Once up top, you two settle in a lab, and he cautiously listens to his radio. "They should be opening up her pod-chamber right about now... " he says with some fear, before the sounds of a powerful static start filling the radio. "Geigaro...?"
>"*bzzzt* still here, Jazz is just getting let out of her pod, the radiation is starting to leak out of her already without the suppressing gel, we should *bzzzt* be able to keep lines open. The heat's rising up high already but Mito isn't breaking a sweat."

>>30706189
"Hah, you had longs day. Don't tucker self out Little Black, just have fun!"

With that, Steel smiles and presses onward, silently leading the way back through the tunnels following the Shiny Trail on the fairly long trek back to Everfree City's ruins. It takes time, but eventually you come into view of the decrepit metropolis once more, the Shiny Trail glimmering as it leads back towards the Dome you came from. Steel pays it no mind, and looks to the City as he cautiously looks around for danger. "If we do run into any danger, we'll just slip into the Shadowscape and slink away. No need to tire ourselves out any more with a fight."

>>30706370
>>30706144
>+3 Nero, +2 Everyone else
The tail knocks you backwards after slamming into you (6/5), but upon your counter-attack the khopesh slices easily through a couple of the now far smaller legs, dissecting them from the body.

>>30706132
You gather up the energy in front of you, it forming a visibile, physical ball of magical power that turns your tiny shoulder into a full-fledged battering ram, and you slam into the mini-Sterling on the creature's forehead, who whips around as she charges up another spark of green lightning. "EON WILL CONSUME YOU! JUST LIKE IT'S CONSUMED EVERYTHING!"

>>30706284
"BE. QUIET!" Dark Sterling's new mutation apparently isn't having any of Luke's wise-cracking words today, the legscoming back to slam into Luke harshly as he tries to counter with the bat, its legs pushing and pinning Luke down to the ground and keeping him there as electrical energy surges through
>Brotherhood back down to 0/3
>Luke down to 0/3 due to critfail
>"YOU ALWAYS TALK, TALK, TALK, WHEN YOU KNOW YOU HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO THROW AT YOUR ENEMY! YOU DISTRACT THEM, MAKE THEM MESS UP, BUT YOU WILL NEED MORE THAN TRICKS TO DEFEAT ME!"

Jean, however, rushes to save the day, pushing the lizard-spawn (of roughly comparable size to her) off of you and slashing her around with its claws, the the tail manages to fight her off and it stands up once more (Animal Mastery at 16 hits)
The jumps and swings her tail at Nero, Jean, and Honey, and another surge of electrical energy pours out of her and floods the room in all directions

"AHH! AHH! Jean fucking kill it already!"

>>30706378
Honey charges at Dark Sterling with her spear, driving it deep as she can with her momentum from the charge.
"I'd likea to see that asshole trya it!"
She then pulls the spear out, only to drive it right back in and maybe strike deeper.

>Dual

>>30706378
Jean continues her almost mid-air frenzy and she reels over the entirety of Dark Sterling's body and face.
>"I AM A VESSEL OF THE MASTER. A SPAWN OF TRUE MAYHEM. TREMBLE AT MY FURY AND TUCK THINE CHILDREN. YOUR BLOOD! YOUR KIN! THEY ARE MIIIIIINE!!!"

Southern kicks back and props her hooves up on a chair. "Do you have any snacks we can eat?"

>>30706370
Onyxia looks over the ruins of Everfree City, almost becoming a familiar homey sight at this rate of passing through.
"Sounds good..."
She says in an almost distant tone.
"Think we should start further from where we ran into Red, that spots probably cleared out."
She comments in thought, marching into the city on the search for either shinies or metals and glass she knows she can buff up.
>Hunt [1d10]

>>30706401
>>30706432
Luke warm is shocked harshly by one of the electrical jolts, sending a series of spasms through his body, but still manages to rise up to face the creature
>Brotherhood at 5/3
>Luke at 0/2

>>30706416
You dive at Dark Sterling with your spear, effortlessly dodging her blows as you strike once, embedding it deep in her chest, then retract and pierce her head, the twisted malformation of your friend snarling as you pull it out. "You.... you...."

>>30706412
>>30706432
>>30706416
Finally, Nero grabs the creature by the tail and swings it around and around, the abomination's lightning spinning erratically and jolting him though he pushes through the pain to throw the creature straight into the damaged wall of the chamber, where-upon it shatters through it entirely. The creature re-grows to normal size mid-flight, and flies through open air into a larger, adjacent chamber besides this one. It shatters upon impact with the ground, pieces of it flying everywhere and the metal that had made up parts of its body coming undone to the floor as the electrical surges stop, and Dark Sterling's body detaches from the 'head' of the lizard, falling to the ground with no further signs of movement.
(1/2)

>>30706656
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEc1OTFaWnI
As the wall shatters and comes down, the next chamber reveals itself to the trio. It is even larger than the ones you were all fighting in, with its primary feature being hundreds upon hundreds of coils leading all along the floor and walls from a central source. Upon a raised platform, roughly 30-40 feet in height, you see a creature curled up into a spiny, spikey ball in a large cylinder with energy barriers acting as its cage. The creature glows a bright, luminescent green, energy sparking up and down its body as this machine's power source surging throughout the chamber. The creature resembles a balled up catepillar, and upon its crown you see three signature curved horns, the same you saw upon Fang's staff, the same upon the Order's symbol, and the same upon the numerous drawings of Freedom Rings and Creepy Crawly depicting the creature that ended the world. Eon.

You and Steel move down towards the streets of Everfree City, looking past the abandoned office complex where you and Red had met for the first time on this visit to the future. He looks around the abandoned city with interest, trying to see what this place might have been like in the past. You find a spot a good distance down with no sign of trouble yet from any savage, feral mutants lurking around the ruins, and you start to dig around and search for any signs of metal, glass, or shiny objects to add to your collection. Unfortunately, on your first pass, you find none."

Steel comments, "They DID mention they had cleaned out Everfree City pretty well to make a trail that long. Might not be that easy to find something they missed. They can SMELL this stuff, remember." He chuckles, "Could always cheat and make some yourself, right?"

>>30706662
>everything after 'Eon' meant for >>30706459

>>30706435
Plasm nods, reaching into his armor's pockets to pull out a small cylinder. "A little desert from the cafe I took." He opens it up, and pours a couple of green cubes (roughly the size of sugar cubes) into your hoof. "They're called Sweet Cubes. Think of it like... chewy, stretchy ice-cream." If you try one, they are cold to the bite like you were chomping into frozen cream, but they prove to be malleable and chewy as gum or taffy. This one tastes of mint.

As he pours a couple for himself, more news comes over the radio as he chews.
>"This is Dr. Mito. Jazz's temperature is rising rapidly, it's already beginning to enter the high hundreds according to my readings but... I'm fine. *bzttt* I'm completely fine, I-... sorry just, still in shock. I can see heavy metal desks beginning to melt around me but I'm just fine. A-anyway, I'm beginning to insert my tool into Jazz, the amplifier should be here close to the base of her skull... w-what?!"
>"*bbzzttt. Don't... touch.... me....*btzzt*"
The new voice coming through the radio is that of a mature mare, voice slightly raspy and hardened as she speaks through a static radio. Plasm's eyes open wide
>"*don't... take it... out... or I'll... trigger it myself before you do... leave it in...*"
Plasm blinks. "She.... KNOWS it has a trigger...?"

>>30706662
"That's what I was hoping on. I don't know if its just the shinyness they smell, but if it is then there has to be loads of stuff they overlooked that just needs some rust removal to be bright."
Onyxia responds as they search the area.
"Though they might have been more thorough than I thought..."

Onyxia looks around the area, giving another search through the city, closer to the lake this time. All the water there might have helped dirty things up to be overlooked by the Dogz. This time she gives a little extra treatment to whatever they come across, using some of her tools and rags from her bag to test the scraps and discarded relics for hidden shinies.
>Hunt [1d10]

>>30706656
>>30706662
Honey stares at Eon, unsure what to make of it at first. But she flies closer to it, keeping herself ready to stay on the attack if need be.
"So...thisa is the shit we'rea all worried about? Looks prettya easy to just kill right here, right nowa."

She grips the flail firmly, looking ready to just start smashing the seemingly incapacitated Eon....

>>30706668
She continues to chew the ice cream and lean on Plasm.

>>30706662
The god-king looks up at the newest abomination, pulling out His radio as He stares up at it.

>"Twilight, this is Nero. Tell everyone Claw's 'final solution' has been taken care of. Swing City is ours."
>>30706705
"I wouldn't do that if I were you. Its not the original, but I don't want to start another fight so soon. We'll deal with this abomination later."

"For now, we should head back to the surface. I have politics to attend to. In the meanwhile, excellent fighting as usual. I am impressed you managed so well without your Machine."

>>30706656
Lukewarm gets up with with a grunt. He walks over to his cat who's lieing on the floor, resting from the fight.
Luke picks her up in his arms, cradling her like a baby "C'mon Jeanie Weanie. Time to rest. good cat." he says as he pets her.

>Jean purrs and has a satisfied.grin

>>30706733
["But...its right there.... Even if it isn't the original, it's still had its hoof in this mess, right? All part of why my time is so...wrong, right?"]

She glances back at Nero at the compliment with a slight smile, but there was recollection in her eyes that betrayed what a smile usually stands for. She was thinking back to the other times she's visited. How they weren't a sun-scorched wasteland. How everything and everyone just seemed to be living life in comfort.
["So...what's one more? They deserve this for taking my life."]
Her teeth grit and she trembles, the chains on the flail clinking.
["For making my parents and everyone else live the way we have to...."]
The trembling and rattling intensifies, but she doesn't show her usual signs of taking flight and attacking.

>>30706705
You fly closer to the caged creature, getting a better look at it from where you are. You hear it letting out a few gurgled calls from within its barrier cage through the chamber as spikes of energy shoot up from it into the coils leading into the walls/floor.

>>30706733
The radio gives a pop of static, and you hear Twilight speaking through
>"Thank Celestia! Glad to hear you're all okay down there, Nero. We've made some progress on our end as well: I'm getting word from the mutant guard that they located the bomb and are in the process of dismantling it, apparently on Level 3 is all I've heard so far but I'll get back to you when I learn more. See you soon."

>>30706756
You scoop up Jean, who has shrunk back down to normal size after the battle concluded, into your hooves and cradle the ferocious beast like an infant, combat finally subsided and calm with the insult to your dear friend Sterling now finally done away with, her honor restored.

>>30706702
Steel nods his head, "AH, good point. They seemed to suggest I was 'less' shiny than others, so if it's not actively 'shiny' I suppose they have trouble smelling it. That's good to know."

You search through more of the ruins of the decrepit old city, and eventually you happen upon a large collection of completely rusted pieces by what seems to be a park area by the large lake, now barren. The pieces of metal appear to be legs, arms, unicorn horn, and broken off wings that used to belong to a nearby statue that has collapsed over, but you can feel that with an application of your transmutation to the rusted pieces of the statue could restore them to full shininess. Nearby you see a plague for that statue, also rusted

>"This is Mito again, subject... is awake. She's physically weak, though, I think I can just reach past her and-"
>"Last thing... you'll ever do... bitch... leave the implant in. Last warning."
Plasm looks to you, seemingly a bit shocked for words. "Mito... this is Plasm. Put me on with her. Commander? Can you hear me?"
>"....."
Plasm groans. "Commander Jazz, please respond."
>"Fuck off, Plasm...." the voice says weakly, "You and I got nothing to say. If you know about the 'bomb' in me then it means you fucked up enough for Claw to need use it. The Dome's fallen..."
"Jazz, come on, listen: Claw isn't who we thought he was, he was..."
>"A what? A monster...? A sadist...? A corrupt sack of implants, skin, and feathers held together by a sick sense of curiosity and lack of moral fiber? Save it your breath, Plaz... I know everything about Claw. The worst things you don't even know. I never gave a fuck, Tartarus's sake I LET him put this thing in me. So do yourself a favor and stop thinking you're going to pull that nice-stallion bullshit on me and get me to 'see the error of my ways' before you really piss me off."
Plasm takes the radio away form his muzzle, seemingly at a loss for words.
