Valoren let out a gasp of shock as he was suddenly ripped from the plate, and being forced to run away from the other ponies. Staring back at the ponies, he could see horrid expressions taking place on there faces, as he let out a gasp as they brushed by some sharp bushes. "Ahhh, so why are we running away" Val asked curiously.

She gallops futhur into the trees, getting as far away as possible from the other ponies, still grasping his hoof. She tries to explain quietly whilst panting, "We need...to find..somewhere safe," She had finally caught her breath, "We go running in there and start fight we won't stand a chance," She said looking at her surroundings, "We better keep moving," She said before heading deeper into the trees and bushes at a trot.

Val gasped as he tried to catch his breathe, but Midnight was makjing it hard to do so. He had no idea what was going to happen, but figured that since she knew this story; it was best to follow her lead. He couldnt help but notice though that she seemed abit more assertive, and forward here in this world;. Pehraps it was because she knew it, and therefore was more comfoterable here then back in the real world. "Well, okay then" Val nodded gently as he raised a brow. "Heh, you really seem to know what your doing huh? I guesss that comes with the perks of having read this already"?

Midnight Read dug her hoof into the dirt, "Bone dry..." She muttered to herself, "Oh and well, I'm just following the lead character," She said blushing slightly, "I'm not really an expert at this thing.." She said,

She began to trot further into the forest making sure Valoren was following her, every once and a while she would stop and dig at the ground for any changes of the texture. They traveled in this style for a couple of minutes until she digged at the ground again and cheered to herself.

She went down small slope and found a what she was looking for, a long flowing river.

"Heh heh, looks like your following the lead character pretty well" Val complimented as he noticed the blush. As they reached the river, he forgot about it as he bended down and tossed a pebble into the river; expecting a trap. Luckily, nothing of the sort happened which ment it was most likely clean. "Well, can take a moment too....Heads up" Val gasped as he pulled Midnight back to avoid having her head knocked off by a pair of vines holding a spiked log which swung back and forth slowly. "Woo, close one" Val sighed, trying to keep the mood light.

Midnight felt herself being pulled back as she saw a spiked log swing to where her head was just moments ago.

"Thanks," She said trying to laugh it off, she got up and looked at the swinging log. "We better be careful from now on, this must be a quarter quell," Seeing the confused look on the pegasus' face she explained further, "It is when the gamemakers add a little 'twist' to the Pony Games, and this year they have added traps." She said looking at the water suspiciously, "We better filter this before we drink it, just to be sure," She said turning to face Valoren,

Midnight Read thought for second and remembered.

"We need to take that water and boil it.." She said while gathering some twigs to light a fire.

She placed the twigs in a pile and set them alight, "It will only take a couple of minutes, then we have to find shelter..." She said while turning her head towards the jungle to make sure no ponies were coming.

Staring out into the jungle, VAl narrowed his eyes as he tried to keep an eye out for any sort of trouble. "Huh, alrighty then I'll stand watch and alrert if anything comes our way" he infomred. Narrowing his eyes off into the distance, he wondered breifly to himself what there goal was? Just to survive? Well they could do that sure, but was there a specific destination that they were going for? Val really preferd about that sort of knowledge, so that way hed have a better grasp of the situation.

Midnight Read stared into the fire. What had she done? She had brought a colt she had just met to a world where 24 ponies are thrown into an arena to fight themselves and the elements. Sure they were doing well...They had already found water, now all they needed was shelter. Midnight Read looked up the quickly setting sun. And she and Valoren were the last two what would happen?

She saw that he was still staring into the forest, she would work it out in the morning all they needed to focus on now was shelter. She checked the water and guessing it had boiling for a couple of minutes now she put the fire out.

"I think the water is done," She called over to Valoren who was still staring into the jungle.

"Ahh, okay" Val nodded in agreement as he stared in concentration as he could have sworn he saw something move out in the bushes. Blinking several times, Val narrowed his eyes as he grunted "What is that.." as he could have sworn he saw something standing on two..hooves..feet, he couldnt tell...whatever it was; it was watching the two of them; observing them slowly. Turning away, he smiled down at the boilder water as he poured the purified water into a bottle, and poured the remainder in another for Midnight. "Heres hopeing we sleep easy tonight" Val chuckled.

Midnight took a sip of water from the bottle, she looked at her surroundings again.

"We can sleep here tonight, but we can't light any fires to keep ourselves warm. It will give away our position" She said quietly,

Midnight heard a rustle in the bushes, and turned her head towards the sound. "Did you hear that?" She asked Val while turning her head to him,

"Uh huh, I did hear something" Val said slowly, getting up. Looking around, he grunted "We're being watched. By what, Im not quiet sure. One things for sure though; we need to keep our guard up against wahtever is looking right at us". Hearing the rustling in the bushes from whatever was stalkking them, Val froze as he could have sworn he saw a horn emerge from the bushes only to hide back once more.

Midnight saw the expression on Val's face. She got up. "What is it?" She asked him,

She squinted her eyes into the bushes seeing nothing. Midnight looked at Val who's eyes was locked onto the jungle.

Midnight took a few steps forward to the jungle trying to get a closer look.

Midnight wanted to tell him that there were no locals here, but it looked like the thought reassured him so she decided not to.

"Your probably right it must just be a-" Midnight started to say but a another large rustle in the bushes stopped her in mid-sentance.

Midnight squinted into the bushes to see if anything was there, she took a few steps forward to get a better look.

Val followed suit as he peeked closer. "Wait, i defeintly know that something is there now" Val said seriously as he tried to reach into the bushes in order to grab whatever was hidding. However, this prooved to agrivate it as something lunged out and tackled Val onto his back; slidding him into the mud. Grunting, Val gasped as he stared up at what looked like..a strange hybrid version of a pony. It stood on two feet, had war painting on its cheeks; and had long razor sharp teeth. Not about to be chow, Val bucked the creature off of him as he hoped back up. "What is this thing" Val asked.

Midnight Read stared in horror at the creature.

"It's a muttation, she said "It's an animal or...pony who has been changed into a monster by the gamemakers" She said

The creature had only been stunned for couple of moments, until it was back on it's feet, it charged towards Midnight but she kicked it away and now it was more angry...

"Run!" She shouted to Val,

Leaping over the bushes, Val charged alongside Midnight, as he shot a glance back at the abomination. It seemed whoever the game makers were, they were certaintly trying to make this intersting. Shoving tree branches out of his face, Val was tempted to go flying up into the air, picking up Midnight. Yet at the same time, he figured that the gamemaker had something that would prevent flying. "Sooo, where do you think we should go next" Val questioned quriously..

Midnight looked behind her as she was running seeing the monster was close on their tale determined to have them as a snack.

Midnight tried to think of ideas from the hero of the book.

They could hide up in a tree, but if other ponies were to find them they wouldn't be able to do anything.. Her mind raced to other ideas, they could hide in a cave... there should be some next to the river...

Midnight suddenly turned around, "Head back to the river!" She shouted to Val

Digging his hoof into the ground, Val forced himself to slid around in an aboutface as he charged forward towards the abonmination. Just as it dove towards him to get its hooves on him, Val grinned cheekily as he leaped over its dive as it slid head first into a bouler. "Ha haa" Val cried out with glee as he turned his head back to face the monster, sticking his tounge out in a taunting manner, before turning back to Midnight and shooting her a grin. "THat was awesome" Val smirked, loving the adrenaline rush he got whenever he faced off against monsters.

Midnight grinned at Val. "Come one, we better go before anything else shows up..." She said while giggling.

Midnight went to the river once again and lit up her horn to see in the darkness better. She walked down by the river and search for a place to set up camp.

After a couple of minute of searching she found a empty cave. She grabbed some wood and set up a small campfire in the cave.

"I found a place to set up camp." She shouted to Val

"Excellent" commented Val as he entered the cave, sitting besieds the fire. Seeing how it was already dark now, it was a good thing that the cave was really deep, so that any trouble makers wouldnt be able to see the fire so easily. "Well, at least we wont have to worry about trouble for abit" smiled Val to Midnight as he raised a brow. "In this world, your like a completly different pony. I liked you before as you were, but I like you just as much and maybe abit more in here" grinned the adventurer.
