As the wind flew through his hair, he couldn't quite understand why he seemed so confident about this. Yet, there was one thing that he knew... Whenever it came down to strength, or magic? He wouldn't normally win in these situations! It also seems that James didn't know what Power he had exactly which was going to help him out alot here. He had the Royal Castle under control under a trance spell, with an amulet that was found in the Everfree? He knew that he had to get to the bottom of this and figure out how that came to be... As he was about to hit the bottom, he waved his hand to the side and froze time.

The moment he had hit the impact of the ground, it hurt like hell! As his eyes opened wide with his mouth open spewing out blood! Roots uprooted from the impact of the ground as well! Wrapping around him a bit, as he felt the blood gargling his screams! Laying there in agony, of the impact with his vision hazy he seemed to be in a panic! He hadn't quite expected that the freezing of time wouldn't work on him. Then again, thinking about it he shouldn't even be alive! Yet here he was, spewing out blood. He waved his hand once more to let time resume, and the roots seemed to slowly coil away towards the trees.

Coughing a little bit there, he couldn't understand how he was alive. Yet he couldn't really move, he was mostly paralyzed, the last bit of energy he had? It had managed to actually go into that wave so he couldn't move anymore. Looking up into the sky above, he started to think about how he could have gone about all that differently... He could have perhaps frozen time and ran past the guards! But then, wouldn't that also somewhat give a hint to his power? No Lix needed to find a way to surprise James so he wouldn't think he was alive... But god damn can this blood stop suffocating me! Why aren't I dead?! Only for some strange green eyes to come forward above him, with a green glow that seemed to be healing him?

He laid there for who knew how long, but he did know that this woman wasn't laughing but was rather crying? Her eyes didn't seem to give pity but rather sorrow? Was she... Was she crying for him? Weakly, Lix began to sit upright only for her to try to push him back down once more which surprised him. Looking at her confused, she would state, "Don't move... If you do, you may not heal properly... You were just about to stop breathing... I could feel with the impact that something heavy had landed... You don't seem to catch a break do you?..."

Lix just stared at her in disbelief, she was healing him, worried about him? Why? They didn't seem to do much other then some rather silly interactions with the timberwolves and the Adagio sisters... wait.. Spitting out the blood in his mouth as he groaned in agony, causing her to wipe a tear she would hear his weak voice. "Why heal me?... I didn't do anything for you..." expecting her to just give him the reason that she didn't want him dying on her watch! Or even something along the lines of she wasn't just going to let some poor creature die! Instead what she said that stunned Lix... "Because you saved me. I intend to repay the favor... For those Changelings."

This caused him to just stare in complete shock... He had rewound time, and fixed things up so that there should have been no trace of his help... Yet here she was aware of what he did... "How did you..." She continued healing him, only to put a finger to his lips as those tears continued but a smile formed upon her lips, her body heaving a bit from the strain of the constant healing as she began her explanation.

"When I had first seen you, I had thought you were a strange creature. You looked so different from the ponies around the exterior of the forest. I always wanted to try to go say hi but, the curse of Everfree kept me within the forest... Along with my Timberwolf family who helps me. Yet, you are different... Unlike the ponies who brave the forest and fear me when I show myself, or think me a witch... You talked with me like any other normal person... You didn't show a single bit of fear towards me, but rather I saw the admiration in your eyes. It was strange to see... So I followed you towards the hole, and found you with a broken leg! I was going to come and heal you but somehow you had managed to come back to it with your leg fully healed... Even got a second deal out of the sisters somehow holding the Briarhart... I remembered your first wish from them and as much as I didn't want to believe it. Your belief in their magic was the SOLE reason you were able to acquire the ability... Then doing so once again risking your life for another power that weakened you?! That just didn't make any sense to me!" She seemed to beat down on Lix's chest a bit weakly.

"But... When you got out of there, and saw the changelings? I had felt their intense ferocity behind me and was about to jump away along the branches with you to ensure your safety... But before I could blink, not only had they all been beaten up to a rather harsh degree and knocked out but... I could see their materials were harvested due to the way the horn looked when time resumed again. I then knew that your power over time worked and you had saved me... I wanted to pay you back but you were gone! So I attempted to follow you along the forests, sending out animals, birds and so on to try to keep an eye on you and I learned of what you did... Of the strange way that you saved those 6 ponies and even bested Nightmare Moon... Found in a tome that I had seen from the local Witch Doctor Zecora... I then heard some rubble coming from the castle... That made me then rush over here hoping you were okay but what did I see..." The tears seemed to flow even more so as she bared her teeth and stopped beating on his chest as the healing intensified when she sat upright. "You... laying here on the verge of death... Jumped from the castle itself... from a cell no less... WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?"

These words really seemed to sink in for Lix, she seemed to know of his powers and what he was capable of and put the puzzle pieces together herself based off the information she learned on his powers?.... She was repaying him saving her by saving his life now and even then she seemed to smile with a renewed passion unlike the playful minx I saw before... "So what your saying is... you watched me like an adventure you always wanted for yourself outside the forest?..."

She only nodded as she spoke up, "But I wasn't sure I would see you again and now here you are... I am a confusion of emotions but I will save your life if I can help it... My name is Adriana... You can call me Addie... If you don't mind?" She seemed to be lightening, and so were Lix's wounds. As he spoke up once more, "Lix... the Human... Thank you Adriana." He would say, as he slowly began to hug her. Albeit weakly, as he began to hum a song that he felt was appropriate for the moment which seemed to help her relax in his arms as they stayed together.

After a little bit, he was now fully healed and she had passed out in his arms... This moment had just renewed him with Vigor as he slowly hoisted her up in his arms. Beginning to carry her on into the Everfree, as he looked up at the castle. "I won't rely on my power here to stop whats going on up there... Using my time powers stupidly like that had almost cost me my life... I can't give up the life that was given to me so I may need to see what I can do without it..."

Unbeknownst to him, there was an Icon that appeared behind him as he walked on finding the path that seemed to have been used and arriving at Zecora's Hut giving it a few knocks. Opening the door, was in fact Zecora as she saw the Deer in Lix's arms she spoke up. "You are not a being I know of, and yet you seek me out like a dove. Lix, a being of abnormality, full of formalities. Set her there, for she can rest a hair."

Lix seemed to have a bit of a headache listening to her, but he gave a smile and laid her down on the spare bed as he spoke up. "So, do you always speak in rhyme? No offense its just so unusual for me." His eyes would lay upon the tattered brown cloth that covered her backside, and seemed to follow along with her tail as if he enjoyed what he saw. A rather nice bubble butt was almost in clear view at any given point. Yet she turned around, causing him to immediately look away as she could only giggle a bit to herself having busted him. "I do not always speak in rhyme, but for you it seems a crime.~ To be capable of using Time, but as for the rhymes? I shall stop for now its fine."

Lix just seemed more confused, but was distracted by her bountiful cleavage barely contained within... wait... her hair? She had no top on?! This was only confirmed when she had moved at just an angle that her black areola showed, causing him to look away Bashful. Standing upright, he would head towards the door. "I gotta take care of something...." As Zecora would place a hand on his shoulder with a strange liquid in a bowl. "Not before you drink this, a concoction that will help you." She stated, as Lix would then look at her and begin to drink it only to gag... Yet he continued to drink as he finished the brew! "That was horrible!"

She could only giggle as she pointed to the icon above his head, "Limitations of Control time removed." Then below it a new one popped up, "Consumption of Hay Day, Temporary increase to stats of +5. Learned Recipe Hay Day."

This made him think, then blush a bit as her breasts pushed into his chest. "I gotta come back and thank yo u for this information. It will help alot!" She leaned forward to give him a kiss on the forehead, "A kiss for a hero, now go and stay low!" With a wave, Lix charged out the door and off towards the Canterlot by foot! He had to stay stealthed, through his approach as he needed to be careful of James now. A fire in his eyes, he would speak aloud, outside the gates in some bushes. Looking at some guards, he would state. "Seems its time to actually do something Brute force for once.... This isn't going to be easy.... But I need to save the girls, and Canterlot itself..." He would then begin his approach towards the gates, as the guards stared in disbelief and shock! Raising their spears and charging forward!
