<p></p> <p> </p> <p>He sees the entrance and would try to hide, deciding that the best way to know what's going on is to try to get out of the city, and he didn't want to be spotted trying to leave. As he tried to hide, he looks around the area, trying to look for a place to leave unnoticed.</p>

<p>Orion would see what looked to be an old Saddle Arabian Themed Restrauant that was abandoned or supposedly abandoned as a strange Pegasus would run out of the said establishment. </p> <p>Star Catcher found in front of her a very bleak sight as guards both battle hardened scarred were leading groups of ragged ponies into the city. Pegasi wearing worn and weathered gold armor would be flying above in the air looking down at the ponies on the ground. It must've been quite a change in environment for Star Catcher to witness.</p> <p>Soon enough, Guards upon the wall nearby would ring an alarm that barked throughout the city. The guards looking after the approaching ponies would brandish weapons and yell for the ponies to enter the city quickly as an approaching army was found to be heading to this place to seige and attack the capital.</p> <p>"Get to safety, citizens!" A guard yelled out wearing grey armor as a squad of pony soldiers would follow him to man the walls and prepare the defenses.</p>

<p></p> <p>Defined looked up at the princess his mind kinda skipping a bit as he simply stared up at her for a minute or two. After this silence he shook his head and said with a rather polite tone "Ah Princess Celestia." He didn't bow or lower his head he simply talked "I've heard a great deal about you."</p> <p>He looked around a bit before asking "So why am I here? Something tells me you didn't call me here to finally learn about me." </p>

<p>Princess Celestia nodded and said, "Right you are, my little pony. A great crisis threatens Equestria and it seems that the destiny of saving it now is thrust upon you--"</p> <p>Before the Princess of Sunlight could continue, the alarm that rung throughout the city would reach the palace they were within. A contingent of guards ran in and yelled, "Princess! The enemy forces are approaching and advancing upon Canterlot! I suggest we have you evacuate to a safer area."</p> <p>The Princess nodded before looking at Defined and said, "I assume this is a good time to see if you are up to the task?"</p>

<p>The mare stood there, eyes wide, as she ran out to a group of ponies being escorted by a small battalion of armored horses. In her panic, her mind hardly registered that she was looking at non-pegasi, as she stood there, all she could see was that the ponies being led into the city didn't look like prisoners of war, but many of them looked weary, hungry. She could hear the rhythmic hoofsteps of the ponies, the sound of mother quieting their foals.</p> <p>Suddenly, a loud alarm sounded, the mare flinching back as she glanced toward the gates, the mare noticing as the ponies brandished blades and polearms alike, the mare only now noticing the faint glow of magic that held the weapons in place. "Horned One?" she whispered out loud, her question lost in the panic as the hoofbeats devolved into chaos, the mare leaping up into the sky with a powerful flap of her heavy wings as the supposed refugees stampeded in her general direction.</p>

<p></p> <p>Defined raised an eyebrow as he heard the alarm 'huh the princess being taken to somewhere safe...guess things are bad.' He nodded quickly and then gained a wicked smile "Oh yes Celestia...and hopefully my certain set of...skills are exactly what you need!" He then looked to the guards and exclaimed Just tell me where I need to go!"</p>

<p></p> <p>Orion eeps and gets out of his hiding spot quickly, and pulls his sword out, again obviously not listening to orders. He Watched the guards and any of the army he could see, and gets himself ready for the fight that could reach him soon. </p>

<p>As Star Catcher ascended to the sky, she found herself being intercepted by the armored Pegasi guards. Their spears were in her way to prevent her from moving any further into the sky. A larger Pegasus made his way over to Star as he said in a serious and booming tone, "Just where do you think you are going, citizen? Are you aware that a sieging army is on its way over here!? We have only minutes to finish our defences. I suggest you get back down to the surface and reach a safe area with the rest of the ponies."</p> <p>This Pegasus stared her down with eyes intense and tired as the guard had no time to deal with stray citizens with a possible battle coming up.</p> <p>Orion would fare no better as the stampeding crowd of refugee ponies would make it hard for the poor pony to be able to make his way towards the gate. It didn't help that Unicorn guards would be waiting at the end of this crowd to push any stray citizens back.</p> <p>The Contingent of Guards looked at Defined as if he were crazy before one simply nods and motions for the group to go. The group would move out and expected Defined to follow them to the gates as they would make their way past hungry and tired refugees who attempted to find a safe place to wait out the siege.</p>

<p></p> <p>He would move as far away from the crowd as he could, and would make his sword visible as an attempt to show that he has something he can fight with, and was unwilling to let anyone stop him from fighting.</p>

<p></p> <p>Defined did indeed follow the guards with a calm smile on his face, but as he saw the refugees he frowned a little as he said "This world seems to be a sad place..." He wasn't talking to anything specificly, he was mainly talking to himself. He would then look to the guards he was following and asked "So who is exactly attacking? And what are they weak against?"</p>

<p>Orion would find that he would reach the gate rather easily more so because he was teleported to the gate. Standing in front of him would be the Unicorn wearing grey armor. This was obviously a pony in charge as the said Unicorn looked at Orion with a serious look. He then said, "You must have a death wish. With the way you were looking at that sword, one could almost assume you have an intention of fighting."</p> <p>A guard spoke up and said, "We are fighting those damned beasts, dangerous critters those ones are! We have no discernable weakness we can exploit for now except that Pegasi and Unicorns are practically the only ones that have a chance of hurting them. Simply, dodge and be fast or stay far, those beasts are strong up close."</p>

<p></p> <p>Defined hummed and nodded a bit before asking with a curious tone "How intelligent are they?" He had no idea what in the hell he was going to do. But that's the best way of dealing with things, just guess and do it </p>

<p>The mare hadn't made it more than a few feet into the air when a number of armored ponies swooped down to the ground, intercepting her midflight, numerous pointed weapons positioned in a manner designed to box her in and prevent further motion. Her ears pinned back as one stallion, a rather burly-looking fellow, made his way down to her, barking orders.</p> <p>The mare blinked once, awestruck. An attack? Then - these ponies were refugees. Star had many questions, but even without her special talent it was clear that the ponies in uniform had much more pressing matters than answering her questions. For now, she'd have to keep her head down, at least until she could figure out why she had been brought here. The mare glanced down, lowering herself down to a nearby alleyway where the stampede of ponies were not, watching the pegasi above. These pegasi were much bigger than she was used to - clearly these were not Butterfly Island pegasi - but their wingspans were no bigger than those of her people.</p> <p>"Stay safe." she spoke, her ears perking up as she glanced at the retreating horde of ponies, guards on the ground rushing feverishly to keep the crowd under control. The mare frowned, and followed behind. First things first, she needed answers, preferably from someone at liberty to afford her the time of day.</p>

<p></p> <p>He nodded a bit as he listened to the guard. "Thanks for the info and thanks for letting me fight. I'll try my best to not let anyone down." He slowly turns to the army and gets himself ready again, preparing for whatever is thrown at him.</p>

<p>The Unicorn Captain wiuld stop Orion and said, "Who said you were going to fight in this battle? Last I checked, you are not a registered soldier in the Equestrian Army, retreat back with the rest of the citizens or I will have to arrest you on the grounds of interfering with organized equestrian military business."</p> <p>Star Catcher found that the crowd were being tended to by a group of robed ponies. They seemed to be carrying books strapped to the sides of their robes as each were Unicorns. They seemed to be caretenders and healers as they provided healing spells to the unfortunate as well as prayers and food. Maybe she could ask one for what was going on?</p> <p>There would be one near Star that was reading a verse from their book to children to help calm them down from the yells of soldiers who gained reports that the enemies were now coming out of the woods and towards the city.</p> <p>One guard looked at Defined and said to him, "Depends on who it is. While most are mindless and feral, others seem to be thinkers and even outsmarted most of our scouts when we attempt to evaluate them. Careful, those beasts are full of surprises."</p>
