Razz was standing outside the castle, watching the stones crumble down into the center of the building. His serene expression observed Visi's form flying out of the castle through a hole in the roof. The pegasus staggered in the air, as if looking down for something, but a rush of stony dust blew him backward. He was flung back into a leaning tower and fell with it, dropping into the castle's moat with a huge splash.
Razz remained motionless as chunks of stone hit the ground nearby, seizing and shaking it. He seemed sad.

DW twisted in mid-air to watch teh castle crumble, dropping in freefall and landing gently beside Razz. "Wow, those pastries really did it this time didn't they? Are you going to ground them for having an unsupervised party?" DW cocked her head at the purple stallion.

Razz didn't look at her, but smiled. "Yes, they sure did. I do believe I will ground them for sure this time."

DW nodded. "My sentiments exactly. Of course Moby Carp shouldn't have encouraged them to invite so many guests. Some of them were a bit hyper." She raised her eyebrows and headed to a nearby tree. She balanced on the uppermost branches, they were twig-like and she had to keep flapping her wings to balance and not break them.

A pure white pegasus flew out of the throne room's opened window, winged stretched. A spray of water and a ball of flames appeared as two of her sisters-Phenix and Lotus-appeared. A couple minutes latera green earthling came galloping over. Nightingale touched lightly down next to Razzaroo. "You saw?", she asked, hoping Razz had seen what had happened to his beloved friend, Silverfall, so she wouldn't have to explain.

Razz looked at Nightingale. It seemed for the first time he recognized who she was. He felt the tips of her thoughts dwelling on Silverfall and he sighed a little.
"Yes," he said. "I saw what happened."

Lotus nuzzled him gently. "Maybe she'll come back."

((Con't from Who knew it would be this hard to find.))
Snowflake dashed out the door, not looking back as the rumbling of the castle grew louder. She skidded to a hault once outside and looked back at the castle's entrence desperitly.
I hope they're alright... She whispered to herself. She didn't want to think what might happen to them if they didn't come out soon.

Tink dashed out, closely followed by Mace and nearly bumped into Snowflake. "Well that was lucky."

DW froze where she was standing on the tree. She suddenly remembered her reason for coming here of all places. She spread her wings and sailed back into the castle with extreme urgency and lack of concern for safety that only the insane have.

Cane skidded to a hald behind Tink and Mace, Sooner still acting as though it were a game he were playing. The white stallion spun around restlessly, dark pink/red locks of mane falling into his eyes.
Where's Sparx? I hope she's ok...I should go back...

Sparx was behind everyone else but she kept going. Just then a ceiling chunk fell down. She dogded, for the most part. The debris hit in exactly the wrong place. It fell down on her broken leg. She buckled and fell but kept crawling toward the entrance. She was so close, she would make it.

More debri was falling. Snowflake could see Sparx trying to crawl out but she was unsure if she would be out fast enough. With a burst of speed she dashed through the entrance. She pressed her forehead against Sparx's behind, with all the force she could to shove Sparx out faster.
"C'mon Sparx!" She said with a strained voice, "You'll make it!"
Just then the castle shook a bit and gave a loud rumbling sound.

DW tumbled into teh grass. She was alive! And so was teh talisman. it ahd a life of its own. She held the stone disk to the sun and said only one thing:
"Pwu ferum ek pud!"
(Ancient Northern for: The power of ten!)
She held teh stone disk to her heart and then looked at it carefully. It was an inch across, and half an inch thick. Carved around the edges were runes, simialar to the ones carved on her face, that gave it power, and in the middle, larger than the rest was another. "Khor." se whispered, tracing it with the edge of her hoof, "Reaper of rewards, true right and cosmic justice." she touched her forhead where the same rune was carved. The Khor glowed red. It was with a protector again. Memories flashed through DW's brain.
Ten unicorns sacrificing themselves, and their power for it's creation.
She was protector of their village, but most of all, she hid their greatest power, the talisman of Khor.
DW hung the talisman about her neck. she woudl keep it by her at all times. She would not hide it again, she could not risk it falling into untrue hands. She turned to teh other ponies. "Be on the lookout for rabid lederhosen."

Cane galloped to where Snowflake was helping Sparx up.
"C'mon...off..." Cane muttered, trying desperately to get the debris of Sparx, "Dont worry...try not to worry, and dont move...it wont burn you if you dont move..."
Cane started a miniture fire to try and burn the debris off Sparx. It was all he could think to do. But he wouldnt let it burn her or Snowflake. He knew, no matter how irresponsible he could be, he wouldnt let it. He couldnt live with himself if he hurt any other pony...well, aside from an evil one.

Sparx held herself stock still. She trusted Cane, but didn't trust herself. She managed to shake a little bit off before Cane started his fire. Then she sat quietly as she watched out of the corner of her eye.
