"Um but its the Everfree and its night right now." Fluttershy brought to their attention. Just then a Blue Flare shot up into the sky and not three seconds later a Green flare in a different place where the ship landed, shot up to join its brother in the sky.

On by one the crowd dispersed with several "goodnight"s to each other as they headed to their separate homes, until only Twilight was left staring at the Everfree.

"Princess Twilight, is it not wise to stay up while your friends have already left for their homes?" A quiet Luna asked understanding her curiosity.

"Sorry Princess Luna... its just that I'm wondering whether or not they will be friendly." Twilight said as she turned around to go back home, leaving the princess of the night alone.

Watching Twilight leave, Luna then turned to look at the forest. Then she teleported to the castle.

(Current time, Bridge of the 'Dark Knight', 3 rd person)

"Uggh, wha- what happened?" Arrow said as he rose from the console from which he was spread across noticing how everything was damaged and sparking. He then saw the Inquisitor rise from the floor when he was thrown when they "landed".

"Logos, systems report." The Inquisitor said as he rose.

"And Talon?"

Just then Talons blue location flare was shot up into the calm night sky, Arrow then shot his location flare in response.

"Arrow, go down and fix the thrusters, while I fix the consoles from up here." the Inquisitor said as he walked to the cargo hold for tools with his arms crossed behind is back. "Oh and Logos, turn on the movement sensors and alert Arrow if it picks up something... or somethings."

"Yes do that please." The Inquisitor said as the doors closed.

(Morning, Ponyville, 3 rd person)

It was outside Ponyville where the 'Mane 6', princesses, and Shining Armor were outside the Everfree and were walking in the forest when they heard a loud "VREEEEEE" sound as a jeep came flying over the hill as it slid to a stop. As it stopped, Bluejay jumped out with a rifle over his shoulder and started walking towards the group.

"You know it is dangerous to go into the Everfree, right?" Bluejay asked as he continued walking towards the forest with the rifle now in his hands. As he reached the edge of the forest he stopped and looked at one burned tree surround by clean, un-burned trees.

"Yeah, so why are you going in the Everfree alone?" Rainbow Dash asked him.

Then Bluejay turned around and said "Two reasons, one, I'm used to danger, two..." he left un- finished as he looked down at the ground.

"... ooookay? Well lets go in together, deal?" Twilight said excited to see the 'Visitors'.

Bluejay looked up at them with a small smile and said "Thank you." He turned his head to look at the tree, but as soon as they reached him, he turned around and lead the way with a data pad in one hand and the rifle in the other.

(Current time, around the 'Dark Knight', 3 rd person)

(Bridge)

"Aaaand that the last of it, try again Logos." The Inquisitor said as he got up from fixing the last console.

Just then all the consoles lit up and the green/grey image of an officer appeared and Logos said

Logos reported

"... set a console outside so I can monitor the systems and greet them when they get back."

"I want to advise them not to meet the locals so we can get out of here ASAP." The Inquisitor said as he walked out of the bridge.

"Yes, go ahead, we might as well rescue someone while we are here." And with that he walked out as the doors closed.

(Current time, Arrow, 1 st person)

'VREEEEEE' 'ah the engine of a jeep in the sill forest of... unknown. Now I should be coming up to Talons signal any secon-' 'CRACK', I swerve the wheel in instinct as something his the window- shield of the jeep.

"Uhhhh..." A familiar voice says. 'Oh, so thats what I hit.' As I see Talon's signal is now behind me.

"Sorry Brother, did not see you there." I call out to my brother

"Obviously" came the stark reply from Talon as he walked wards the passenger side of the jeep. "Now, lets get back to the ship."

"Agreed, and can you not tell Inquisitor that I hit you with the jeep." I ask as I turn towards the "Landing" site.

"Who? Oh you mean Fox, I wont but... the huge dent on the bumper might tell a different story." Talon finished with a laugh.

'Shit'

(2 minutes later, around the 'Dark Knight', 3 rd person)

The Inquisitor was leaned over the Holo- table when he heard a familiar 'VREEEEE' coming towards the ship. When he looked up he saw that the jeep had a dent in the bumper and Arrow was driving with Talon in the Passenger seat holding healing foam over his ribs. Both of them then jumped out, walking separate directions as Logos takes over the jeep and drives it towards the vehicle bay. Deciding to have fun with Talon as he said "So... did you have to hold down the jeep or..." and this makes Talon cross his arms and look away.

"Fo- Inquisitor, I think we should meet the locals, they might be able to give us supplies to fix the ship." Talon said as he looked the table displaying the surrounding area.

"No, we made contact with a old ACSC signal so we are only going to take survivors, then get off world if we can." The Inquisitor said as he turned his head to look at Talon.

(Current time, Bluejay's group, 3 rd person)

They walked in silence as Bluejay and Shining led the group to the area of the crash site. Then deciding to break the silence Rainbow Dash offered "To fly up and ahead to see how far they were from it" while to stretch her wings.

"No" the blue scientist said as he led the group, "We are only halfway there and there are entities that can fly here Ms. Rainbow Dash." Bluejay said politely.

Just then a pack of Timber-wolves jumped out of the bushed only to be greeted by the scientists rifle going 'CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK' then there was only fire wood as the scientists moved on as if nothing had happened. As he was walking forward he glanced back to see that everyone looking at the 'fire wood' in shock, but the royal sisters were looking straight at him in curiosity. 'Well I'll have to keep an eye on them" not realizing that they were thinking the same about him.

(10 minutes later, Bluejay's group, 3 rd person)

"Pleeeease." Rainbow dragged out, desperate to fly. not noticing that he stopped outside the clearing.

"No, were here." and true to his word the ship was there with two figures looking at a Holo- table hooked up to the ship and another one in green looking straight at them with some sort of bow aimed at a tree far from them.
