Part two

Chapter two: Amethyst

I had to wait close to an hour before I heard the man start to wake. I grabbed the small dagger and the vinegar. I walked next to him and said "wakey wakey, you've been out a while." I could see as he opened his eyes to the darkness of down here. He moved his head to see me. "so, how was your nap" He eyes went wide in fear but he stayed quiet. I walked in front of him "I want to know some thing and your going to tell me them, clear?" He raised his head to look at me flatly and said "I wont tell you anything" So I guess this is going to be a long time, but I want to get the over with quickly. I drove the knife into the middle of his foot, he yelped in pain and I said "who are you?" After a second or two of silence I started to turn the knife in his foot. He started to scream in mercy so I stopped and said "answer my question" I could see he didn't want any more pain "my name is Robert" he said with a sadness behind his voice. "nice to meet you Robert, I only need to ask you some question and then we can have some tea" He shot me a worried glance but continued to speak slowly and very sadly "okay, what do you want to know"

"first things first, I want to know how you got here."

"Well they gave me this ring and told me they would kill my family if I didn't listen to them. They pushed eight of us into a small room and then they told us to focus on the rings, and that when we got here" I went behind him and looked at his hand and on there was a purple ring. Well I guess that explains one part. "In the room they put you in, was there anything on the floor?" I said walking back around to face him. "There wasn't anything on the floor it was empty" After hearing this I though for a minute. "what happened to you group of eight, only three attacked." He flinched a little but said "we had to kill them, they lost most of their memory and didn't know who we were." So that was why Fluttershy probably didn't recognize me, or remember anything. Must be a side effect, but how did they get the circle onto the ring. "when you started to focus on the ring, what did you see?" He though for a minute and then said "it was a empty circle with some weird writing on the outside." I went behind him and took the ring off of him and looked at the amethyst, it had the circle I used to get here engraved on it. "is there any more of these rings where you were before you came here" I stated still looking at the ring "no, they said to be careful with these because it was the only few they had. But I do think they had on some as well" So they could come here. They were to smart to just come here, they needed someone to test if it worked. I was guessing there was a way for the ring to take you back after a while. "what did they say to you exactly before you left?" he looked down again and said "That if we didn't go our families would be killed, and that after 4 days the rings would bring us back to the human world, alive or dead." So they want the rings back, I had to get all the rings together to destroy the amethyst quickly. "well that you for telling me all this, here have some tea" I made him drink the tea and his head slouched down. Quick and painless, just the way I knew it would. I took the knife out of his foot and looked at the clock on the wall, this nearly took an hour. Well I had to hurry and collect the other rings before they returned to their destination.

I teleported to the other side of the door and started to walk the direction that I though they went. A guard came up to me and seeing my torture devises drew his weapon. I just said to him "I was interrogating a criminal, and I must tell the princess the information. Is she available at the moment?" With his weapon still raised he said "I can take you to her, but you need to give me that stuff" I complied putting all the materials in a bag and putting it on the ground. The guard lowered his weapon and grabbed the bag and said "follow me" It took a couple of minutes of walking before I saw a large door, it looked no different then the hundreds of other doors but the guard stopped at this one and opened it. Inside was a large hall that leads to 2 chairs against the back wall. I saw Princess Celestia and a dark blue alicorn; this must be her sister that they were talking about, Princess Luna. I went inside and after noticeing me I bowed and quickened my pace. "well I found it what I needed to know, we need to find the other 2 that we took care of." Since I didn't know where the others were I though to myself that at least the others would have their numbers shrunken to a minimum. The princess have me a weird look and said that they were taken to a lab to be tested on, they wanted to know more about humans and how they worked. I said I only needed a ring that they all had. She threw 2 rings on the ground in front of me and said "these?" I threw the other ring in the same spot and started to burn the amethyst. Those were now useless. All I can do now is wait for the other Five to get here and see how many attacked this time.
