going back just a bit to right before PR squished the mutants' brains

*Serenity continues to fight, heedless of the searing pain in her weary limbs, heedless of the blood and gore that covers her from head to wingtip. She slices forward at one mutant as another comes at her from behind, swinging one spiked tentacle at her, catching her on one of her wings. There is a sickening CRUNCH as the wing snaps.*

*Serenity screams out in pain and lashes backward, slicing the tentacle off. The mutant roars in response and then falls over. Dead.*

Huh?

*Serenity does not have time to ponder the strange behavior of the mutant, nor does she bother to notice that every other mutant around her just fell over dead, also. Instead, darkness overtakes her and she falls down, too.*

Oh I never should have had that 4th waffle this morning at breakfast!

*He slowly gets to his feet, and he hears a clip-clop clip-clop sound.*

Ororo?

*PR turns around to see Ororo rushing upto him.*

How did you get here?

(FYI: Probably the same way as TGJ.)

*He pats Ororo on the back.* Nevermind. *PR looks around sadly, knowing that he now has to be the bearer of bad news. He sees Serenity, lying in amongst dead mutants, not far away. PR hops on Ororo.*

Giddy-ap!

*Ororo trots*

*Ororo trots some more.*

*Ororo stops.*

*PR hops off and rushes to Serenity, he checks her vitals.*

Ouch. Broken wing?

*He looks up to Ororo, and stands. Careful not to move Serenity too much, PR lifts her up, and gently lays her over Ororo's back. PR pats the pifflepony's back as he walks round to the front. He takes hold of the pony's reigns and slowly leads her on.*

Come on Ororo, lets take her somewhere safe.

Ororo: *sniffle*

*As they walk on away from the carnage, PR spies something familiar on the ground.*

*He bends down to pick up Soul's bow and quiver. He looks puzzledly at it.* But...how? *As PR looks around a leaf soars by, on the wind...*

Jazaf races down corridor after corridor to catch up with his budding pupil, until an opened door stops him in his tracks.
He peers into the room, it's completly dark save a single, harsh light. At the center of the light lies...
'...Soul...?'

Jazaf enters the room and checks Soul for signs of life. He finds none. He hardens his face and lifts Soul's lifeless body onto his shoulders. Confident that Duece can handle any threat to herself Jazaf heads out of the building, but not before he warps the wall and transforms it into a large note for his student telling her where he went.

He then follows a trail of blood and dead mutants back to the rest of the crew.

'Gotta remember to have them put him in Cryo.'

Deuce searches the entire building, which is somehow suddenly empty.

Crap! NOW where is he?

Then she sees the note written in solid metal, and runs after Jazaf.

"What the..." he says as the mutant in front of him just collapses.

"Well that was strange, i wonder what happened?"

He wanders off trying to find someone.. anyone.. who knows what happened.

*PR, Ororo and Serenity come to a small stop at the foot of a hill, away from the mutants. They wait for the rest of the crew to join them.*

"Uh... Hungry, Bride7?"

TheRealMe nervously fumbles in his pockets and pulls out a granola bar.

"Here, this should take the edge off your hunger."

He offers it to her, but she declines. Then TheRealMe stands there, while Bride7 looks him up and down, as if evaluating a calf about ready to head to slaughter.

"Oh, LOOK! Isn't that PsychicRiver on a Pifflepony?"

TheRealMe drops the granola bar and runs toward PsychicRiver.

*Ath is more than a little suprised when the tide of mutants stops. Even more so when he sees all the dead mutants around him. Surely the Tree folks hadn't killed ALL of them?*

Don't tell me TGJ went all dark and wing-y again.

*Looking around at his companions, Ath can feel that something is wrong, although what, he can't say.*

Is everyone okay?

*Before everyone can answer, he spies PR riding his pifflepony with--*

Serenity?!

*Ath runs toward PR as fast as his injured leg will let him.*
