    Light Showers saw Scire dig out the black calling card and sighed, "Fine, I'll get mine real quick." He looked over his shoulder, and used his magic to flip open his saddlebag and bring out his own card and showed it to Scire, "That good enough for you?" he asked.

    Robin placed the gaurd in his cloaks pocket re-stitching it up. "well we just passed Over ghastly gorge so I would guess around 2 to 3 hours".

    Scire nodded happily and stashed her card away inside her saddlebag again, coming back out with a sack of bits which she tossed in Light Showers' direction.

    "Well that's a pleasant surprise." Light muttered as he caught the bag of bits and put it in his saddlebag with his card. "So, now to find out what to do until our train arrives..."

    Scire shrugged in reply. She hadn't really thought about that part; she's been so excited to meet her partners for this mission (actually mostly just to use her stone) that she had only really been thinking about that.

    Scire checked when the train to Lundy would arrive. She hoped it would be soon; honestly, all of these bits were starting to get heavy in her saddlebags. She wasn't built to carry this much weight...

    It really wasn't long before the train in the Ponyville Station left, and one arrived from the Las Pegasus area. This train had the destination of Las Pegasus, but it had a few stopping points along the way - one of those being Lundy.

    This of course was the train they were waiting for! After the previous passengers departed the train, the conductor stepped out and shouted over the noise of the doors sliding open "Now boarding! Train to Las Pegasus, Hackney, Tersk, and Lundy~!"

    The surrounding crowd began to sparse out as many of the waiting ponies boarded the train.

    Scire trotted onto the train, making sure to keep an eye on her partner. It wouldn't do to get separated now that he'd finally joined her, would it?

    Light saw a train pull up, and after ponies had finished departing it, the conductor yelled, "All aboard for Lundy! All aboard!" With that, Light turned to Scire and said, "Well, time to go then!" And with that, he headed off to board the train

    Ahem...

    Scire and Light Showers have a pleasent trip, where they get about 4 hours or so to uh... "talk" and get to know one another, if they so please. After all, Light Showers probably notices that Scire's bag with the bigs is fairly hefty and full. It attracts a lot of attention when they get on, but that's about the end of it. For most of the trip there was a strange teal unicorn looking over every so often between reading a magic book.

    However, as soon as the train stops at Lundy and the pair gets off, that's the last either one would see of that unicorn.

    It would be about 3 more hours before the next train stops at Lundy, dropping off only two passengers. For Power Surge and Robin Hoof, the train would've lost a lot of passengers while passing through Canterlot and Ponyville, but they were the only two ponies on that train who were interested in getting off at...

    Lundy

    Lundy was a quiet and quaint town, far more sparse than Ponyville. The houses were quaint, generally had rooftops with a hue of purple paint, and were mostly single-floor structures. The only thing that appeared impressive about Lundy was its wall of Plum Tree fields that took up the back outer edge of the town itself, curving around it like a natural half-pipe.

    As far as the train station, it was more just a stopping and on-point, nopony really knew much about the town, so really there were only five ponies there at the station. Two unicorns, three earth ponies. The agents would get this awkward feeling from the peaceful front of the village that maybe nothing was actually wrong...

    "Well that took ages but at least we're here." Robin stepped onto the platform finally glad to stretch his hooves.
    "Come on surge, let's go find the others.". Robin then flipped his hood back up stepping into Lundy.

    Scire saw him as soon as he stepped out of the train. Really, it wasn't that hard. They were the only two, and even if there had been others, one had a freaking hood, which might have been good for staying hidden in the forest or concealing your identity, but certainly not for being inconspicuous. She hopped to her hooves and trotted toward them, smiling.

    Power stepped out of the train and examined the station. His vision was quickly directed to a pony happily bounding towards them. He prodded Robin with his rod and tried to look as inconspicuous as possible.

    "Hey, uhh," he walked to Robin's side, placing the pony between him and the earth pony. "I think we have company.

    (Scire is an Earth Pony, lol, but understandable, as I do almost ALWAYS play unicornses...)

    Scire stopped moving towards them when she was about six feet away, and dug into her saddlebags, pulling out her card after about 10 seconds of rummaging. She stared at the other two, waiting for them to do the same.

    Boy, would this be embarrassing if they weren't the ponies we were looking for. A random mare staring at them while holding a card and not saying anything?

    She looked back to Light Showers to see if he'd followed her. That pony was like a puppy; always losing her. She'd have to keep a close eye on him...

    Light stepped down next to Scire, to see her holding her card in her mouth. He simply stopped beside her and looked around, the place seemed peaceful enough, so why would they need one of, if not the, best doctors/medics the Order had?

    Robin simply nodded at Scirce and light showers and his horn began to glow a dark green. he produced the calling card and walked towards the two.
    "I guess this makes four, at this rate the plums will have quite the bunch of guards. I am Robin hoof by the way".

    Light held his hoof out to Robin, "Light Showers, doctor/medic. Please to meet you."

    Scire backed away, keeping a safe distance between herself and the other ponies in her group. About 5 feet, that is.

    From this distance, she smiled and waved at the two other members of her group she had just met.

    In Light Showers' head, her voice echoed: Tell them my name is Scire, it's a pleasure to meet them, and please don't touch me.

    Wow, way to make that sound totally worse than I said it, she grumbled at Light Showers.

    Power poked his head out from behind Robin. "What, like this?" He poked his rod out from under Robin's legs, but Scire was too far away for him to reach. He pulled away and presented himself fully. "I'm Power Surge. Great to meet to both of you!" He directed his gaze at Scire for a moment, expecting a reply. He squinted his eyes at her through the silence. "What's the matter, you dumb or something?"
