Applejack goes to Falkreath while Rarity gets drunk

        The last night, Scaleblade offered for Applejack to stay at breezehome. Now she had a good nights rest and was ready to go off seeking her friends. "Why it was mighty fine of y'all to let me stay at your house 'n all but I really should be off looking for my friends." Applejack said about to leave the house.

        "Wait, you say you lost your friends?" Scaleblade asked "Maybe we could help!"

        "Ah don't think Ah need any help. Thanks fer offering though." Applejack politely refused.

        "I insist! We were actually going to go down to falkreath anyways. Do you have a weapon to protect yourself from the dangers of the forest?" Scaleblade asked.

        "Dangers? What dangers?" Applejack asked.

        "Wolves are a big one. One day while tending to the garden a whole pack of them Attacked me." Fire Eye announced.

        "One day sabrecats came to the house in Falkreath and tried to rip my forelegs off. Luckily dad left his sanguine rose at home that day." Explained Sweet-Sword, Scaleblade and Fire Eye's daughter.

        "Bandits killed the neighbors." Was all Sundered Flesh could say.

        Applejack just stood there. This country was full of ways to die. Heck even the foals lived a kill or be killed type of life. It must be pretty darn dangerous. "Well, if y'all insist..."

        "You won't regret it! When we get to Lakeview we could probably get some weapons and armor for you!" Scaleblade announced.

        So the team left breezehome and set off for Lakeview Manor. Applejack closely noticed that Sweet-Sword wasnt actually carrying a weapon with her. "Excuse me, Sweetie? Ah was wondering why ya don't carry a sword with you." Applejack asked the ten year old.

        "Oh, because I like magic more than weapons, mama says that's the Dunmer that I get from her. The specific magic school im trained in is conjuration. I usually conjure Swords and other weapons though and Papa says that's my Nord side." She explained.

        "What about you? You look like you prefer solid weapons." Applejack now asked her twin brother, Sundered Flesh.

        "Magic is for sissies," his sister and parents all shot him a glare "I say all you need is a Greatsword and your set."

        "Why you asking miss Applejack?" Sweet-Sword asked.

        "Ah dunno. If Ah don't find mah friends soon I guess I'm gonna have to get something to protect me." Applejack explained.

        "Well I don't mean to brag but me and my wife consider ourselves experts on weapons, magic and self defense," Scaleblade started "If you plan to travel in a well armed group such as ours you'd probably be okay with just Destruction magic."

        "Conjuration if the group is a little less skilled than yourself," Fire Eye added "If your alone but do stop at villages to rest and such you'd want a weapon."

        "And if your gonna be away from civilization for long periods of time like a month or something, Enchanted Weapons plus any previously mentions magic should keep you alive." Scaleblade explained.

       "Uh, okay." Applejack said.

       "And if you can, try to learn a shout." Sweet announced

       "A what?" Applejack was just confused now, why would she need to learn how to shout she can perfectly shout now and secondly how would that help in a fight?

        "A dragon shout, you know something like Unrelenting Force," Applejack had know idea what Sweet-Sword was talking about now "meh you'll probably see it later."

        -The Retching Netch-

        "Oh... Oh boy I thi-think I had just a little *hic* a little too much to drink." Rarity said.

        "Well, are you going to pay now? We're closing in a few minutes." The bartender was obviously getting annoyed.

        But I do-don't have *hic* don't have any money, how's about I-I make you a very pretty *hic* Du-dress!" Rarity was drunk out of her mind and she didnt give a crap, probably because she was drunk. But when she said she had no money this irritated the bartender the most.

        "AND DON'T COME BACK YA HEAR?" The bartender kicked Raity out of the tavern. It was at least mid night and there were few guards out. Suddenly Rarity's attention was taken by the boats down at the dock. The boatponies are all in the bar, maybe I could sleep in a boat! Rarity your a smarticle. And with that thought in mind Rarity stumbled over to the docks. Nopony was there as the wind from the ocean was very strong and many people stayed indoors.

        As Rarity got on one boat she noticed something. There was a top tied to the boat. "A rope? Why is a rope for? Trixie... Wait I'm Rarity not Trickle... Ropes are g-gay *hic*" Rarity then proceeded to untie the rope "There, no mo-more gay ropes for me *hic*"

        Rarity then stumbled into the storage room of the small boat and fell asleep on a pile of hay. As the drunken mare fell asleep the boat began to drift ever so slowly away from the docks. The only thing noticing was a kitten on the docks watching as the boat drifted farther and farther away. It wasnt much longer until the boat was out of the kittens sight. So it began to lick its paw.

        -WinterHold the next Morning-

        Rarity woke to a horible headache and, cold? Maybe a cold spell to keep the inn's customers comfortable in the heat of Soltheim. Rarity seemed to like that thought but the cold was just a tad to much. When her vision came into focus she realized she must have been in the Inn cellar. Across from her she noticed a big fuzzy jacket. Putting it on she went up the stairs and opened the door.

        The sight that greeted her was surprizing. She was on a boat that was blanketed in snow washed up against the coast of a small town surrounded by tundra. "Oh I was drunk last night." Rarity just had to facehoof.

        She got off the boat and started making her way towards the town.

        -Riverwood-

        "Nice seeing you too Free Will!" Scaleblade waved to his friend as we left the small village.

        "Hun, I don't think I've ever met that stallion." Fire Eye mentioned to Scaleblade.

        "Oh he's a good ole friend of mine. He's the one that escaped Helgan with me," Scaleblade explained "Without his help that day I probably would have died, he also put a good word in for me when enlisting for the Stormcloaks."

        "Why don't you ever invite him over then? Or visit him?" Fire Eye asked.

        "I do visit him, have you ever wondered why are drinks and beds are always paid for at the Riverwood Inn?" Scaleblade replied.

        "Oh that's who he is? Well next time we are at..."

        Fire Eye was interrupted as twenty or so bandits jumped out of nowhere and surrounded the group. "Okay guys there's twenty of us and five of you, so your gonna do as we say. Hand over all your money, weapons... And that blondie you got." The bandit leader announced as he pointed a hoof to Applejack.

        "Hay miss Applejack," Sweet-Sword called out "Now you get to see what Unrelenting Force is." The little filly moved a meter away from the rest of the group facing the bandits. She then firmly planted her front hooves, then began to speak. "FUS RO DAH" Then a burst of what Applejack thought was a shout hurled towards the bandits, throwing them in its wake. Then a purple orb exploded in Sweets mouth materializing into a sword.

        All Applejack could do was watch twenty grown stallions get beaten by a ten year old filly. That girl is so overpowered. Applejack thought as Sweet-Sword took out the last of them.
