"The...... physical....... manifestation..... of...... love... " Ghost tried to explain, cringing when some of the odd mist landed on him. "It...... was....... a..... one-.... in-.....a-.....million chance, " he said, wincing in pain as more love mist landed on him. "But..... it's...... poi...son....ous ......to .......Changelings." Something had begun to change in Ghost, he seemed to be recovering, but he pulled himself into a corner, farthest from the others, and hid his face.
Angel's eyes filled worried, she took a few steps forward. She looked behind her at Frozen then looked back. Angel stood at full hieght now, her eings spread out and her necklace rested against her neck. Her eyes started to glow and so did the gem on her necklace. A purple mist surrounded Ghost trying hard to heal him. Angel hoped it would work, but something told her it probably wouldn't.
Ghost's hair began turning gray, and horrid, black, spike-like growths sprouted from his back. His eyes dulled to a misty white, and his clean, white, fangs grew grotesquely longer. Wicked talons sprouted from his hooves, large bat-like wings burst from his back, and bony, razor-sharp, bladed arms exploded from his chest. Blood was splattered all over, and the skin on his skull seemed to have shrunken inward, creating the illusion of an asylum patient's worst nightmare. "S-stay...... away...... from..... ME!" Ghost turned towards Frozen and charged, ravenous hunger in his eyes. (Everypony, meet Hellbent Massacre, or Hellbent, for short. He's just a one-time thing, so bear with me, ok?)
Hellbent stopped himself inches away from Frozen. Puzzled at the feelings inside him, he reached out and gently picked up Frozen. "I-I'm.... s-sorry," he said in a deep, raspy, nightmarish, voice.
Frozen was sobbing again. Her eyes held fear, and she fell out of his arms. She scrabbled to her feet, and ran out the door, and went into the woods.
Angel stepped a hoof between them, "Dont touch her." she snarled. Her horn glowed and her necklace became full armor. She pushed Hellbent back and seperated him and Frozen by stepping between them. Without looking away, Angel commanded the wolf to follow Frozen and keep her safe. ((Angel's armor http://i390.photobucket.com/albums/...s-celestia_artist-larsurus-1.jpg?t=1355694176))
By the time the wolf started it's search for Frozen, she was long gone. Her scent was extremely faint, and the deeper it went, the less apparant it became. Finally, it was nonexistant.
A feeling of sadness, hatred towards himself, and... affection? The biomass swooned back and forth, until a black cloud engulfed it, replacing the mutant with Ghost. He tried to stand, wobbled a little, then fell back down. "Could I.... get some help.... please?" Ghost had difficulty speaking. He quickly replaced his mask, and re-attached the older filter, despite what had just happened.
The wolves reported back with nothing. Angel stomped her hoof with anger tht made the tree house shake. Angel turned back to Hellbent and instead saw Ghost. Her eyes softened and she went to help. "We need to find Frozen" Angel's armor retreated back to the necklace. Angel helped Ghost up and helped him study his balance.
"That Hellbent pony scared her off, non of the wolves could find her" Angel helped Ghost walk outside. "Can you fly?" ((Changelings fly right?))
"Hellbent pony???" Ghost asked, really confused. (Ghost was Hellbent, remember? So technically this is his fault. And yes, Changelings can fly, their insectoid wings are usually kept retracted, so they can't be seen)
Angel let go of Ghost and lifted into the air, she hovered a few seconds. "We have to find her, its not safe out here in the Everfree Forest." Angel brushed aside the Hellbent question. Angel waited for Ghost calmly. "Come on! Dont worry about you wings by the way. Ive worked with changelings before and im quite use to your wings." Angel gave a reassuring smile.
"No..., they're not like other Changeling's wings... " Ghost slowly spread his wings, showing Angel feathered, insectoid wings with a few holes in them. He looked at the ground, ashamed of his deformities.
Angel noticed, "Hey, no need to be ashamed. I think they're really cool" Angel spoke soft and nicely. "But we really need to find Frozen before anything happenes." Angel pulled Ghost into the air and flew the way Frozen went. They travels a few miles and came to a stop. "Oh this would be where the scent went cold." Angel dropped through the trees and landed on the ground.
"Maybe she crossed a dead spot, a place where the scent dissipates. I'd there a stream nearby?" Asked Ghost, looking around.
