You have to give it to Diamond; she's EARNED her cutiemark in determination. There's a crackle of lightning somewhere in the castle, and a familiar hole shreds the fabric of space and time, allowing Diamond to tumble out like a sack of potatoes. An empty hallway...perfect. "OK Stah, I don't like you, and you don't like me. But lets get through dis, dis ONE time, and I promise I'll polish you'se up real nice and shiny...maybe dip you in some milk...would you'se like dat? A ...MILKY WAY!?" She giggles. The star remians silent, but if we could hear it's thoughts, it would be repeating the word "Murder"
ALERT: RIFT DETECTED. LOCATION: CANTERLOT - EAST WING. COURSE OF ACTION: INVESTIGATE SOURCE, FURTHER ACTION WILL BE RECOMENDED ONCE SITUATION IS KNOWN. Scope, heading down the WEST wing of the palace stops mid-step when some sort of alarm goes off inside his head, horn quickly illuminating as he senses a somewhat familiar, and somewhat powerful magic at play. Narrowing his eyes, the stallion concentrates on that area of the castle and vanishes in a flash of gold, reappearing behind Diamond Dancer with his back turned to her.. and her's towards to him.
Diamond_Dancer's ears are flattened against her head, and the little filly is sneaking along the wall of the castle like she were in a spy movie. Dun dun dun, dun dun dunnnnnn, dun dun dunnnnnn dun dun! "Ok Stah...I wish I had directions ta find Fiyahfly" She whispers low, and suddenly, infront of her, there's a small pink arrow the points towards her. "...Alright, dats more like it, ha! Way ta go, stah! Alright easy peasy...in and out..."She whispers, starting to back up...
What was that!? Scope spins around with horn at the ready but finding.. nothing. Hmm. Squinting, he turns back around to continue his scan of the area where the rip occurred, a diffuse beam of energy fanning outward around that spot. Strangely enough he's too engrossed in his work to even notice the filly nearby, or that pink arrow..
Diamond_Dancer has accidently wandered directly underneath Scope, focused entirely on the pink arrow and the idea of completing her mission for Nightmare Moon. She steps when he steps, and stops when he stops, it's almost like a dance, and it would be comical, if she weren't enemy number two in Equestria right now...
Scope, completely oblivious, finishes his scans and fires a tear-drop shaped pulse from the tip of his horn at the instability in the fabric of the universe caused by the wishing star teleport, repairing it before it gets the chance to turn into something a bit larger. Work completed, the "dance" ends with Scope turning around and DD walking through his moving legs, passing mere centimeters over her without contact and with her eyes locked onto that arrow, and soon they're walking their separate ways down the hallway but in perfect time with each other, causing each hoof-step echo to sound as one step.
Diamond_Dancer stops momentarily to check on the arrow her star is directing her towards. She tilts her head, peering at it, before shaking the star like it were a clock that's stopped. It still points in the direction Firefly is apperently- her own personal way point!
Scope is just about to leave when something catches his ear: The sound of his hoofstep suddenly decreased in volume. He had thought that maybe he was just walking heavy and dismissed it, but now it sounds like how he'd normally travel down this hallway. Narrowing his eyes, he sloooowly turns around.. (Though it's probably a lot more apparent for Diamond, because when she stopped the hoofsteps CONTINUED for a moment before stopping)
Diamond_Dancer's ears perk slowly, as her hearing (one of the few senses she has left) picks up something odd about her own footsteps. They're much heavier than normal- espcially if she's in SPY mode. (She has come to the conclusion that she's really really bad at being a spy) She sloooooooooowly turns around, and freezes, eyes wide when she spots Scope at the other end of the hall. Time for a fight! Time to put it all down on the line, and show this guard what she's made up! "Star, give me some appropriate music for da situation!" She barks. The star begins to glow. The Benny Hill theme wafts slowly into the hall.
For some odd reason, the star's music actually sets the scene as the "fight" between the two is a lot of fast-paced, herky-jerky running around. Scope chasing Diamond towards one end of the hallway, Diamond chasing Scope towards the opposite end, Diamond coming back and looking confused before Scope's head pops up from a potted plant with the pink arrow hovering above, flashing and pointing downward at the guard. He swats at it a couple times but it just floats out of the way each time, and soon Diamond spots him he spots her, but he's quickly out of the pot and running off screen again. ... Then a trio of mares who look like they just got out of the shower (complete with towels) run by with Scope chasing after, Diamond coming in afterward and doing a "WTF?" blink and shrug, then jumping and running away as the mares & Scope come back her way.
Diamond_Dancer finally, skids to a halt, panting quietly, and holding up her hooves. "OK! Stop, stop, STOP!! She squeals and the music abruptly ends with a record scratch. She glares at her star, then looks up at Scope with a slump in her shoulders. "What is dis, strike three here? I'm no good at dis." She pouts quietly. "Look, Scope, I don't wanna fight you'se, ok? We both know dat'll end with me gettin' blasted like, a gazillion times in da face. You'se can't hoyt me, I can't hoyt you'se...Y, you'se wanna jus, go git a cidah down at da Dancin' Dragon?" She shrugs.
Having come screeching to a halt and almost colliding with the filly, Scope blinks in some surprise and confusion as the music abruptly stops. .. He doesn't show it on his face, but he's actually quite sad that it's gone. He loves that song. :c "Hrrrrm.", he starts contemplating the little pony's offer, or at least acting like he's deep in thou-- "Yeah, ok." Well, scratch that, he could use a cider right now so off they go, walking together to get their drink on.
Diamond_Dancer's ears perk up, and the hypnotized little filly gives a bright little smile. "OK!" She chirps, happily, and she trots happily along with the other guard, out the door and towards the end of sobriety as they know it!
