Cobalt returns a smirk, earbloom in his left ear as he began to re-sort the tools in his saddlebag. "Of course, but I hope for your sake that DJ-P0n3 doesn't know. Again, I wanted to say thank you, the goddesses know what would have happened to me if you hadn't came around."
Julion nodded and headed back into the apartment, receiving a bunch of shocked looks, "What?" he asked, but he already knew, they probably what DJ Pon3 said.
"Well, I like to keep my past close to my chest, and I preety much left the Stable after I got my cutie mark, so it was never a big part of me. And I'm guessing you heard what DJ Pon3 said, so I'll say this; I got my cutie mark by defending the one DJ Pon3 calls the Stable Dweller from a crime that although she commited, she did not need the punishment for. In fact, with my talent, I set her on the path to getting her cutie mark, so it was kinda a trade off." Julion said, "And that's all I'm going to say about it, my past is mine and mine alone, and even that has been taken from me now." he finished, thinking of what happened when he tried to take control of Littlepip.
"Fair enough. Do you mind if I ask what your Stable was like? Like I said before, mine was falling to pieces."
"Calm, quiet, ordered. My stable was built to last, it was the second Stable built, so it was built well before the end so they didn't have to rush." Julion said.
Hearing all too familiar voices from inside one of the rooms. Spoon tapped the door with his hoof. Hoping they wouldn't murder him to death.
Jazzy, who had kept himself silent, went to the door. "Oh, hey there. Come in.", he said to Spoon, before going back to his place with the others.
Jazzy smiled to Spoon. "The kind you may not want to know sometimes. I'm Jazzy Groove, i think we haven't been properly introduced earlier."
"I am The Soldier and these are my best mercenaries: Bloody 2, Snipes, and Heavy Stomp." Julion said.
"Hi I'm Ecliptic, and aren't you the one who ran off earlier? Can I ask why?" Sitting up, he turned his pipbuck's radio off.
"Well, for one thing, Julion tried to kill me, so that would deterr me from trusting him... And I'm G- Spoon, my name is spoon."
"Might I um... Inquire if any of you would be interested in trading?" Cobalt awkwardly says while standing outside the door.
"I already made a trip by the marketplace." Julion said, "Now, we need to find out where we are going next, Bloody 2, Snipes, Heavy Stomp, and I can't stay here forever, Major's fine out watching over the troops but if I don't go back soon, I may find my army shattered."
"So, we're settled. Our choices, if we want to survive, are to stay out from any Raider's territories. Especially in tyhe city north from here: They may embush us and kill us in a few seconds, before Snipes to shot down their leader, then healing Bloody 2, the only survivor. Another choice is going west: but, there again, if we meet raiders, we won't make it. The survivors may be me and spoon, or Ecliptic and Heavy. In the two cases, Julion, i'm sorry to say that you don't make it. Leaves us with the last two directions: South and east. Julion will spare us an ambush if we go south, and Snipes should warn us before the mine fields at the East bomb us."
Julion grimaced at Jazzy, "You may want to reconsider that. I've killed hundreds of raiders, in all typres of circumstances. And this armor ain't ordinary armor. Bloody 2, dimenstration time." Julion hit the armor button on his vambrace and was completely covered in metal, "Took me years to perfect this." Julion said, motioning to his camoflagued armor as Bloody 2 picked up her assualt rifle, "It can survive direct impacts from almost any kind of bullet, including most armor piercing rounds." Bloody 2 took aim down her rifle at Julion's head, "It is even cushioned to survive nearby blast!" Julion said as Bloody 2 pulled her rifle's trigger, sending three bullets at Julion's covered face. Ping, Ping, Ping! And Julion was still standing, the armor left with barely a scratch, "Best of all, its enchanted to divert any magical energy rounds fired at it straight into the ground. Even my own rifle couldn't harm me in this suit, mostly due to the leather cushioning. The only thing that could kill me inside this suit with any kind of ease is a hellhound claw, and I don't plan on going to Splendid Valley anytime soon. Heavy Stomp over here is probably wearing the only set of armor around that can even has a large chance at surviving a hit by a hellhound claw. Bloody 2 is wearing the previous version of my armor, and it can stand up to about the same conditions that mine can, it just wears a bit more easily. Same with Snipes, and if your wondering the about the metal I used for my suit, I call it superanium, it is hundreds of times stronger then steel and is a real pain in the arse to refine."
