"O-hohohohoho! Very well then! I will go alongside your band of merry men! And my services will even come at no charge. This opportunity to see the magic of many universes will greatly aid my research, and more than pay for my presence in this march."

She then looked at Moja. "So, is there anything else we should be told? Or is the story ready to unfold?"

A quest, then? If it would allow her to go home, Twilight supposed it would be worth a try. The scene changed and they returned to the forested area that they had started in. And she was back in the bush.

Great.

A couple of the things shouted, though she couldn't see either of them from where she was standing. Then the others started pledging their allegiance or somesuch. well, since everyone else was doing it. "I will side with you... whoever you are." A beat. "And... would somepony mind cutting me out? I think I'm stuck."

Kribnefka walked over to the trapped unicorn, cutting her out with a knife.

"Care for some tea, miss?"

...and that's terrible.

After Kribnefka cut out the branches trapping Twilight Sparkle in the bush, Atrocitus walked over to it and picked her up.

The Red Lantern then started examining her, like one would examine a msall animal at the pet store. "You look like the creature the humans call 'horse', yet you are much smaller, horned, and I feel immense magic coursing through your body," he said. "What manner of creature are you?" he asked Twilight.

Twilight stepped out of the bush, slightly embarrassed. Princess Celestia's personal student, given pause by shrubbery. Absurd. She looked up at Kribnefka, raising a brow at the god's appearance. She'd seen dragons before and most of them talked*

, but she'd never heard of an adult bipedal dragon. "Tea would be nice, yeah." She extended a hoof to the strange being.

Before she could say anything, the red one picked her up. This made Twilight a little uncomfortable. "Put me down!" She exclaimed, wriggling in Atrocitus's grasp.

"What's a unicorn?" Atrocitus asked.

Then Twilight said to put her down. "It talks then," he said. He then put Twilight down on her leg like one would place a small dog on the ground. He was still holding when he lowered himself on one knee and poked her Cutie Mark. "What is this mark on your backside?" he asked.

Kribnefka returned with Twilight's iced tea, as well as a glass for Atrocitus. They were on the tray the sandwiches had been on earlier.

"Would you like some as well, Atrocitus? I need to empty out the pitcher before making more, and I don't believe you've had any."

Koragg looked at the scene change to a lush forest. Koragg then looked at the purple unicorn. " So one of our allies is a horse? Very well..." Koragg then thought of something. He then put out his arm on a random patch of ground, then uttered a spell. " Mejor Catastros!" Koragg said. A purple circular spell seal appeared on the random patch of ground as a black heavily armored horse came out of it. It galloped out of the spell seal and onto the ground. The horse was half as tall as Koragg. The horse then neighed.

Twilight glared at Atrocitus. She wasn't really comfortable with being referred to as an 'it'. She shuffled away from the Red Lantern as he began to prod her flank. What kind of question was that? He had one of his own, though it was emblazoned on his chest rather than... wherever a cutie mark would be on a biped. Though it was a bit odd looking, though. Ignoring his question, she turned to Kribnefka.

The unicorn levitated the glass over to her and took a sip. "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Twilight Sparkle, personal student of Princess Celestia." Her tone didn't indicate any sort of pride in this, though she was very proud of it indeed. "And you are?"

Atrocitus thought for a moment. The Red Light was fueled by his rage, which in turn fueled his body, nullifying the need for any sustenance whatsoever. However, he decided it was best to give start giving these people a good impression on him right now to better his own chances done the road.

"The tea will suffice," he said to Kribnefka. He still did not trust this self-proclaimed God of Deceit at all, but from hearing the others accept this tea that it was not poisonous. Only an idiotic trickster would poison potential allies right at the first meeting.....

The Red Lantern took the glass and sipped some. It was surprisingly good.

"I'm Kribnefka, God of Deceit. I'm from Dragonreach, so I'm afraid I'm not familiar with your teacher."

He headed back to the house, jumping up onto the porch before dispelling the effect keeping it aloft.

"Come on in, I've got plenty of room. Though I should probably summon a familiar for this... excuse me for a moment, I'll be right down."

The Dragonborn headed upstairs, and some rummaging could be heard above the porch. He came back down almost instantly.

"I can't believe it. I'm out of diamonds. What proper sorcerer runs out of diamonds?"

The horse creature, called a unicorn apparently, wriggled out of Atroctius' grasp and introduced herself to Krinefka, ignoring him completely. This annoyed him slightly, but surprisingly not as much as it would have if it were anyone else. "Excuse me......" he thought a moment to remember the proper title. "Ms. Sparkle, but must ask about that symbol you have. What is its meaning actually? A symbol that your loyalties lie towards this princess you speak of?"

He then heard Krinefka speak of diamonds. Before the Red Lantern could ponder this, a second horse, larger and neavily armored, appeared out of a magical circle. He sprang up and produced a rather crude construct blade, preparing to battle - but it merely trotted up to Koragg and whinnied.

"FOR THE LOVE OF THE BUTCHER, I told you to WARN us whenever you do something like that!!" Atrocitus yelled at the magic knight, dispelling the blade.

Twilight raised her brow at Kribnefka yet again. So he was a god? A dubious claim, at best. Still, if he was a god of treachery, would his godhood be obvious? Twilight thought on this for a moment before dumping the contents of her glass on the ground while she thought nobody was looking. Better safe than sorry. She turned Ayumu and was about to ask exactly what he meant by a 'real unicorn' before Atrocitus interrupted her again.

She gave the red lantern a look that said something along the lines of 'What are you, stupid?'. "That's my Cutie Mark." She stated matter-of-factly. "Not a symbol of allegiance."

"I did when I chanted my spell, red rager. I was merely testing the spell. Catastros seems to be more smaller here than he should be. Now..." Koragg said. He then put forth his arm again as he chanted another spell. "Uthe Mejor Ultimas!" Koragg said. After a moment, nothing happened. Koragg shook his head. " It seems that not ALL my spells work. Had the spell worked, I would have fused with Catastros and formed a powerful new form. But it seems that I can simply summon him." Koragg said. Catastros then stepped forward to where Twilight Sparkle was.

“We are together, then.” Sheik inclined his head to each of them courteously and formally. “I thank you all.” Behind the swathes of fabric that covered his lower face he breathed a silent sigh of relief. He had hoped they would have seen reason and joined his cause. His faith had not been in vain, then – though for a moment he had had some serious doubt. This was a collection of free spirits, fiery and independent; though for the most part goodwilled… they would need Wisdom to guide them. He could only pray that the Goddesses might see fit to grant him such Wisdom.

He looked up then, observing Kribnefka’s conversation with the newcomer. Apparently, they had a new ally in their midst – the purple unicorn. Interesting.

The Sheikah warrior stepped forwards, looking down at the pony with a piercing, thoughtful gaze in his crimson eyes. He had to get right to the point. “Lady. You come to us in a time of great need.”

“You have heard of the dangers that lie ahead of us. Of the destruction that this Sifuri will wreak if we do not retrieve it in time.” His red eyes flashed.“You have been brought here for a purpose. There is a place in our team that only you and you alone can fill. But it is neither my place nor anyone else’s to bind you to a cause that you do not wish to further.”

“So I ask you - Twilight Sparkle, student of Celestia, wielder of Magic. Will you aid us in our cause?"

"The choice is yours.”

"Ah, it's nice to meet you, Miss Sparkle," said Lyna. "I'm Lyna, the Light Charmer. Um..." She tried to think of something to add to that, but found herself drawing a blank.

"Oh, um... You need a familiar, Mr Kribnefka?" She turned to the deceit deity, and held out her own familiar. "Um... Would Happy do? I mean, I could always let you, uh, borrow it, if you'd like, ahah."

"Its not enough to merely say a spell, you have to tell us that you are going to do beforehand!" Atrocitus said angrily. He then took a sip of the tea to calm himself a bit. "Anyway, what sort of construct is this horse of yours? And what do you mean by fusing with it?" he asked.

Then he turned to Twilight. "Then what is it a symbol of?" he asked the unicorn. "I ask because you are the only one among us to actually have one of these.....Cutie Marks." Ugh....that sounds so stupid.... the Red lantern thought.

" This is no mere construct. Catastros is a living breathing animal, much like the Unicorn next to him. And to answer your latter question, when I mean fuse, I mean that Catastros will fold and become a human-like shell for me to slip into. The two of us would combine to become the Centaurus Wolf Megazord." Koragg said to the Lantern.

Seemingly mechanical beings that can live and breath like organic creatures. Fine. Using said animal was armor. Okay. But Atrocitus had trouble wrapping around his mind on how an equine transforms into something that was canine. The Red Lantern decided not to further ask about the subject in order to prevent himself some logic based headaches.

He decided to ask a simpler question: "What is a Megazord?"

Twilight cast a glance at Catastros before turning to Atrocitus. "Would it be alright if I explain later? I'm a bit busy right now." The unicorn turned to face Sheik. "Like I said before, I'd be happy to join you on this quest. If the world is in danger, I feel that I'm obliged to help save it." A beat.
