[ooc: just for clarification]
Glasye gave a polite nod and a rueful smile to the other ponies present outside the building, and turned to follow Rose into town.

Roxanne you act so brave on stage, will you keep you face when you act for me?
Blue creeped into the theatre and up the stairs to the loft above. It wrapped the sore, tired pony in warmth and love and a feeling of empowerment. Roxy could beat this and she could get others to help her - she was glowing with an aura-like power that softened the dark edges of the room.
Blue - the charismatic.

Razz led them to Roxy's room. Inside they found her sleeping, but it was a deep, restless sleep. Razz could not wake her. "Well, what do we do?" Razz asked. "We can't leave her." He felt somewhat compelled to stay by her side.

Deep within the slumber of the exhausted, stifled behind the velvet blackness, far into the distance, there shone a faint glow of blue...
The darkness grew like midnight into dawn, slowly, slowly, and the dazed stars behind Roxanne's eyelids faded away. The glow expanded, and filled her, and surrounded her, and her dream world shone with its light. For the first time in years she was aware of an overpowering love, something like a faint memory of family, of a mother...
The voice she heard was not tangible, but the words formed in her mind, original and somehow familiar. She replied to it, though her flesh did not move.
Yes. I am yours and you are mine and we are as one. As one...
Stretched limply on the bed, virtually unconscious and barely breathing, Roxy's body had embraced a chance for true rest. The blood on her cuts had dried, leaving a fine webbing of brick red beneath her caramel coat, and a pool of saliva had formed on the bedspread beneath her. Unknowing, uncaring, she had slept as long as she could.
But now a force, new to her experience but undeniable and unquestionably trustworthy, was revitalizing her.
The first sign of her growing energy was an agonizing intake of breath and a long, strengthening sigh.
And finally, suddenly, Roxanne was aware of other ponies' presences in her room, and with a soft gasp her eyelids flashed open.
Underneath, her irises were no longer their usual grass green, but a bright, intense, noon-sky blue.
And as power of the rainbow was allowed one outlet from her body, it flared with a great and energetic power, and Roxy's skin began a faint, tangible glow of its own...
"We are one."

Once they were in the room, Silver Shadow waved his horn gently, causing the silver blue flame to flicker into a whisp of smoke. Sighing, he walked up beside Razzaroo.
"Don't worry, she is waking," He said to Razz, as he watched her glow faintly.

"Ooo..." Razz breathed out, his mind feeling the tingling edges of Roxy's mind as it awakened. Kneeling down, he said, "Hi, Roxy. It's OK. It's just me, Razz."

Roxanne blinked in surprise and tried to focus on the plaid pattern of her bedsheets. Once it was clear and crisp she turned her attention to the rest of her room, wary of what she would find.
Her head lifted slightly, happily, at the sight of Razzaroo.
"Razz! Hey kiddo, what's cooking? Holy cow..." She had caught sight of one faintly glowing blue hoof. She sat up and examined it carefully for a long moment, and a broad smile grew across her face.
"I thought it was just a dream... Crikey, check me out! I'm Sky-Raver pony!
"And hot d**n, do I feel better." She stretched out each leg and arched her back, and allowing her movement to tip her off the bed so she was standing properly on the floor. She tensed and released each muscle, refreshing herself actor-warmup-style. Finally with a satisfied grunt she shook out her mane and tail, letting each hair float in its own little blue aura.
"Ok." She exhaled carefully and spoke carefully. "Now, I've not been one to believe in magic. But I've suddenly turned blue... and Razz, you're... purple... and... who are you?" She looked at Silver Shadow.
[OOC: who else is in the room? Are you the only two? I want to make sure I'm not leaving anybody behind!]
"But... you'll tell me who you are, and you'd sure better tell me what else is going on, because this radioactive mare is seriously out of the loop. Be careful, because at this point..." She shook her head lightly, slowly - "I'm pretty much ready to believe... anything."

((occ: Silverfall is also with them, though Bandit the dog isn't... hmm, I might try this explaining thing, but I'm not the best at it. -.-'))
"I'm Silver Shadow." He said extending his hoof in greeting.
"We can tell you all that we know, but not all of it is pleasant." He took a deep breath, unsure if he was fit to tell her. "I'm unsure if what I'm saying is this all correctly... there are some parts I have missed out."
"You might of noticed a few strange one-coloured ponies, especially a green and an orange, around Ponyville yesterday who were causing alot of ponies' grief. They burnt down the pet store with the owner inside, tried to burn down the neighbourhood and it looks like they also had a go at this place too. I don't know what else they did but we know that there are seven of them, one for each colour of the rainbow. I also don't know if they have a special name, but it seems as thought they have all got together except for one of them, leaving only six of them."
"Last Night the group of six captured the castle, a few shop owners and the ponies who were in the castle at the time of capture. All the ponies at the castle seem to be aware of what's happening, and the majority of them are fighting against them. I'm unsure about what is happening at the castle at this very moment, but just then a few ponies left to help out the ponies captive in the castle."
"Now, I'm unsure about this whole glowing business, but it seems that is has only occured recently and that it has been taking over several ponies. The ponies' that are being "posessed" should be glowing, just like you and Razzaroo, and these ponies should be glowing in a particular colour. These colours include red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet and indigo, which all colours of the rainbow, just like the other seven "Evils". So far the red, orange, yellow, blue, violet and indigo, have been found. Others have gone off to look for the other glowing ponies. By the way, you are the Blue, as you might of figured out."
Silver Shadow frowned slightly before turning to Silverfall. "Is there anything I missed out?" he asked

Silverfall seemed deep in thought, but shook herself as Silver Shadow spoke. To Roxy, she said, "The Evils are remnants of the Dark Rainbow. I know it well, though I have never met it in pony. It is pure malice." Her mind drifted to the pet shop and all the little chinchillas that lost theirs lives. "You are one of seven champions chosen by the side of Light to fight against the Evil Incarnations. You must do this before they join into the all-mighty power that is the Dark Rainbow itself. Ponyville will be lost. You will find your powers grow as you learn to use them. Razz has developed the ability to read minds rather well."
"But I promise only to read your mind if I absolutely have to," Razz added quickly.
"But the hour is short," Silverfall said. "Even now your brothers- and sisters-at-arms are gathering upon the castle in a fool-hardy attempt to strike down the enemy. I'm afraid their lack of forethought will lend to a dangerous situation, but there is not much choice. We must see if we can help them."
"We need to find all the champions of Light," Razz said. "But she who represents the Green is trapped in the castle."
"Yes. We have to find a way to get her out," Silverfall said.

Razz stamped his feet. "I can feel her. I can feel the green." He shook and shivered and broke into a sweat that came so suddenly even Silverfall balked at the sight. "Pain..."

Silver Shadow listened to Silverfall carefully. He had to learn to remember these things because they might become important later. He wasn't quite sure how he could be of help, but he was thinking about it carefully. "We could just rush in a join the fight or is it possible for us to get in the castle without being noticed by the Evils and to get her out of there?"
Silver Shadow watched Razz with concern and surprise. By what Razz said, it didn't look good at all. "Razz, can you try to block the feeling? Stop the connection between you and the Green? It might help you..." He was unsure, but the purple stallion could try if he wanted.

Razz's heart was pounding, but he listened to Silver Shadow and gave a mental push to the wave of green that in his mind was the green pony. For a moment it ebbed and swelled and ebbed and swelled, but finally receded to the background.
"I'm afraid I don't know any secret ways into the castle," Razz admitted. "If only we could disquise ourselves, but I don't think that's possible with us glowing and all."
"They would know you even without the glow, I fear," Silverfall said. "You have not the dark heart needed to get within their company unaware."

Silver Shadow nodded. "Well its castle isn't it? I'm guessing there would be secret passage ways and tunnels in castle, even if this one is pink and purple. I went on a tour in the castle yesterday, and the elemental creatures where with me too. I doubt the castle changed much in a night, even with the Evils in it. I could ask the sylphs to look for any passages that could take us to the green." He asked. "We could give it a try, and anyway, most of them practically live there unnoticed, especially in the garden. So they should know a fair bit about it's secrets..." He paused for a moment, remembering that they might not know anything or very little the elemental creatures. "I'll explain about them later..."

"An excellent idea, Silver Shadow," Silverfall nodded, understanding. Razz on the otherhoof was mumbling to himself.
His voice spoke in Roxy's head.
Hello out there, Champions of Light. Our friends are trying to find a secret way into the castle...
Razz drew back. "Well, I think some of them heard me. It's effort speaking to the whole group at a distance."

"Silverfall?" Razz asked. "What's a Great Hasbro?"
"I don't know. Why?"
"Just curious."
