Kutibu just sat there wandering if it was just equestria which had fallen and not Zebrica. "dusk, do you know of zebrica. are they safe".
Charlie stood not daring to show a single weakness. She stepped away and stood back from everypony just watching. She couldn't speak not after seeing that.
Dusk was heartbroken. Trottingham was where he met Yuri, and where he went on his first date. It was also where his only childhood friend lived, but now they're all gone. "I-I don't know... Zebrica might not be as safe as you say... not with... him..." Dusk said, an awful taste in his mouth when he spoke of the stallion in the video. Dusk stood up and walked over to Charlie. He didn't say a word to her. He didn't even look at her, not once. Yuri stayed next to Bryz, feeling safe when she was around. "Bryz?" She whispered, "What are we going to do?"
Bryz sadly whispered,"I-I don't know, I think we'll gather survivors, stop the one who did this.", then asks yuri,"does your father take care of Cloudsdale?"
"No... he was only in charge of protecting Ponyville..." Yuri whispered back, wiping away her flowing tears. She wanted to go to him, but couldn't. Dusk just needed some time alone with Charlie. "Charlie?" Dusk said softly, but his voice cracked, "I'm so sorry... it's all my fault..." A tearful Dusk gave her a comforting hug, then just sat there by her.
Vergil walked up to a radio and attempted to make a call. "Hello... Are there any survivors? My name is Vergil. Meet me in the ruins of Ponyville"
Charlie just shook her head, she escaped the hi politly and stood to the side leaving a metal barrier from the others. Then she finally spoke. "Um. Somepony is trying to radio in you know." she pointed to the radio that Dusk was holding where a faint voice was speaking.
Bryz pulls out some scrap metal, and tools, then starts building,"yuri, I'm sure this'll all be fine in the end."
Vergil calmly waited, polishing his katana, in case of further enemy encounters. "If any pony is out there, they probably won't make it here. But I have to keep hoping"
Vergil's radio crackled to life, "This..... mander Dusk.... in cliff... cave... survivors. .... need help!" Then it went dead. Dusk's radio sparked and died, "We'll so much for that... " he said sadly.
Vergil checked where the radio frequencies were coming from, quickly equipped his sword,grabbed his radio, and ran for the source of the broadcast. "No way any chance of survivors will escape me."
Vergil finally arrived at the cave, with a backpack full of supplies. Med kits, food, water. He was going to hope this would help them and more importantly, that they could help him. But trust had to be earned
Vergil suddenly had a Magnum revolver against his head, "Who are you?" Dusk said angrily. "Why are you here?" His eyes narrowed, and he pulled the hammer on the gun all the way back.
Dusk sighed and holstered his weapon, "Sorry, I've just been a bit angry lately... glad you came..." Dusk brought him in and introduced everypony, "This is Bryz, Esy, and my daughter Yuri," Dusk said, a little hesitant on the last part.
"I can't really blame you, almost every major city in Equestria is getting blown to the heavens. The official rescue personnel gave up after their base was nuked. What kind of pony SEEKS carnage?"
Dusk looked at the ground, "A soldier does..." He said, and gave Yuri a kiss on the cheek. "Stay with Charlie, alright?" Yuri smiled shyly, "Y-yes, Papa..."
