Welcome to Gaia! ::

Cherry narrowed their eyes as bullseye approached them and Just Lance remembering their sisters words. Their expression changed as the fire colored mare spoke. "You were frozen like Deli?"[/] Their thoughts drift back to what Mango had said. They figured that is what she meant. "Let's go and speak to Teal over by the cart. As you heard I am Cherry." They quickly followed Just Lance hoping the mare would follow and be able to share more insight to help Deli and those that were frozen.

It...it looked like Royal had almost been attacked, but was suddenly saved by something. Was...was it Shadowed's fault for saying she hated her family for how they were acting? How she was acting?

Or was it something that had nothing to do with her at all?

Either way she didn't move from her post next to Sapphire, even if everypony else was moving and doing other things. She was terrified to find that her brother had almost been attacked as well, but part of her wondered if that would put down the fear the other ponies had about the Cobalts.

Two of them had been attacked, was that enough?

Or would it take more?

With the departure of Just Lance so suddenly Bullseye blinked a bit, taken aback by how quickly he settled on something, but she nodded to Cherry's question all the same. "Most people didn't notice, which is fine. But it made me even more worried about my friend." She gently kicked one hoof in the dust, thinking about what Deli must feel like having been frozen for so long already. She herself had been distressed and panicked, because just like Deli's it had come on suddenly and without any warning.

"It's nice to officially meet you Cherry, Deli's talked about you before. My name's Miss Bullseye." It would be hard to forget the name of the pony her friend had been crushing on. "I figured I would tell you first since... well she probably would feel better hearing your voice."

The larger pegasus took off much faster than she was expecting, leaving her trotting a little quicker to keep up but something distracted her first! A crack of lightning made her jump, jarring her as it came from the direction she was heading and it looked as though it was heading towards Royal! Her hooves moved just a bit faster but it died before it hit the blue pony. Feet not stopping she skidded to a halt just before Royal and Mango, nodding her head to Just Lance as she could only figure he must have had something to do with it given his power and proximity.

"Oh thank goodness..." Her voice came quietly as she looked Royal up and down to make certain he was okay. Her penpal might not have made a move to worry about her when she was frozen, which had hurt, but her concern still blossomed there. He hadn't been attacked until he'd been near this other pony, left his family to come and talk to her. But... she'd helped Deli, not that it meant anything that she had other than she must have known her? But what Royal had said before when she'd been frozen nearby him.... maybe this pony was... a changeling?

Piper seemed to have an idea on what was happening. Though he didn't want to stir more trouble, Glitch could understand.

Abyssal Jewel grimly set their mouth. This was utterly madness, but they feared being turned upon for not participating in the mob mentality of the moment. "Hmm..."

Voting Inaction on Mango!

Well. At least more of them were speaking up, working with him. Making sure that more of the guards were there to keep an eye on Delicate Trinket, Just Lance trotted off to find Mango Lemonade. With a gentle hoof, he guided her away, and once more set to casting the spell over the pony. Again it came up white, and he let out a tired sigh.

"That's... one more pony cleared, I suppose." Just Lance looked even more tired, now, and nodded for Mango Lemonade to go back to the other ponies.



ROUND 4 IS OPEN!

Before anyone else came towards them. Royal was swift to reassure Mango. "Bullseye is a old friend of my via letters. From what I observed of her here. She's fine. I trust her." He lowered his tone a little. "Has Cherry acted weird at all? Anything you noticed as their sibling." That question alone sparked a few things in Royal. He turned his head to look at Piper. Nah. She was acting accordingly. He shook his head, a few doubts sparking. Piper would know better than to leave her siblings. At the very least she would take Glitch back there....right? This mob mentality was really irritating. He sighed as he looked to Mango. "Glitch is fine as well. We know for a fact that Silver and Teal are safe, as is Shadowed...I'm worried that others will start crap just to start up a mess." he shook his head. The male offered Mango a smile. "It'll be fine. I have faith this will all work out...."

As he noticed Just Lance approach them. The stallion stood a little straighter. "Sir." he greeted the elder with all due respect before nodding to his best friend. Cherry. "Cherry. I was checking in on Mango." He backed up a little to allow Cherry near their beloved. A small part of him twisting as he buried a little of himself at the thought of his best friend with Deli. Curse his heart sometimes. The blue male backed up a little more then started to move towards Just Lance. "Sir...I need to speak with you privately---"

He sensed the magic shooting towards him. The male freezing out of sheer shock. What?!? He hasn't participated with this 'wtich' hunt like some others. Why was that aimed at him?!? He panted heavily as the magic stopped short. Honest to goodness fear iced his blood as he felt Bullseye checking him over. He nuzzled her. "Thank you Bullseye." He shivered a little. "That...that just means my faith was misplaced. That's all."

Fine, if the Changlings wanted to play. Royal would play. He took a deep breath. Then looked to Just Lance. His eyes mere slits as he tried to keep the light directly out of them.

Jiniya poked her head out from under a random cart when the loud crack of thunder boomed. She had thought the world was ending for sure but was relieved when she didn't see fire and screaming ponies. She took one last look around before she ducked back under the cart.

She had no idea what to do or even say to any of them. As she had looked around before returning to hiding she noticed some things that were different. It made her feel even more uncomfortable. She didn't normally run and hide, she really wanted to help others but had no idea on what to do. All of the rumors and chaos made her confused and she didn't know who to even start analyzing. Were there even signs that she could look for to help reveal a changeling?

She laid her head back down on the ground as she wondered what could possibly help the situation at hand.
