Somnambula had climbed a tree to get some fruit. She used her wing to grab the piece of fruit. She sighed, wishing she could use her wings to fly. She climbed down and saw someone.
"Woah." Said the male human, surprised. The human wore a dark blue jacket and a dark blue flat cap over his head."Your, uh...your one of those talking horses." He said, looking at her, amazed by her wings.
"I am a pony, actually," Somnambula corrected.
He stared at her.
"Are you okay?" Somnambula asked him.
The man nodded."Yeah. It's just...your a very beautiful creature."
Somnambula was surprised by his words and she blushed."I have seen you at the caves a few times. What is your name?" She asked.
"The name's Albert Arlington. But my friends call me the Weasel." He said.
Somnambula raised an eyebrow."Why do they call you the Weasel?"
"It doesn't matter." He said. The two were then walking through the jungle."So...you talk? How?"
"Ponies do not talk in your world?"
"No, they don't." He said. Arlington looked at her wings."Can you also fly?"
"Not here. Not on this Island. This place is doing something to my wings. It also doing something to Luna's magic." Somnambula then stopped walking."Do you hear that?"
Arlington also stopped walking and heard the sound of water. The two followed the sound and they saw a spring with a waterfall."We should go back and tell Vanto about this." Said Arlington.
At the beach, people and ponies were grabbing supplies from the crashed Arquiten command cruiser as the waves hit the beach.
"Everything is getting washed out to sea." Zuud said to Vanto."This can't be normal. The tide shifting so suddenly, rising in so short time."
"There's a lot not normal around here." Said Vanto."At the rate this beach is eroding, this ship is going to be underwater in a matter of days. We need to get all this stuff off the beach before nightfall."
"I just hope that moving up the coast will make a difference." Said Zuud.
"It would make a difference if everyone moved inland," Vanto said to her.
"I think you'll find people slightly wary of entering the jungle after what happened to the pregnant girl. Not to mention whatever that thing is." Zuud said. Vanto knew that last part was about the monster in the jungle.
"Zuud, I need you to take me back to the French woman, Rousseau. Jeela's still out there." Vanto said."Now, Rousseau mentioned that there are others on this Island."
"Her mind is gone," Zuud said.
"You heard them yourself," Vanto remembered when Zuud said she heard whispers in the jungle when he and Luna got back with Tucker.
"I don't know what I heard."
"You said that when you-"
"The wind, Vanto." Zuud said to him."It was the wind playing tricks."
Vanto stared at her for a moment."Okay, then. What about the papers that you took from her? The documents, the maps. I mean, isn't there anything here that-"
"I'm skilled at mathematics and decryption, but these equations are beyond anything I've ever seen. There are these notes in french accompanying some of the maps and diagrams. If I could translate them, I might be able to make sense of it, but..."
"What?"
"Perhaps some things are best left untranslated," Zuud said.
"Yeah?" Vanto then pointed to Tucker, who was sitting by himself."Maybe you should tell him that."
"I'm glad to see you're doing something productive." Jaime Lannister said sarcastically when he saw his sister just laying on the beach, doing nothing.
"Where have you been?" Cersei looked at her brother.
"What do you mean where have I been?" Jaime asked.
"You and Tarkin have been leaving before sunrise and coming back after dark for the last 4 days. What are you doing out there?" Cersei asked.
"We're looking for Jeela." Jaime said.
"I thought there was no trail anymore, that no one even knew where to look."
"Yeah, well, at least I'm doing something. This isn't King's Landing, Cersei." Jaime said."We have no power here. At least I'm doing something. You're just useless." Jaime said before he left her.
Jaime walked through the jungle with an axe. He saw Tarkin.
"Isn't there any easier way to get here?" Jaime asked the Grand Moff.
"The easiest way isn't always the best." Said Tarkin."Did anybody see you take it?"
"No, I don't think so." Jaime said.
Tarkin looked at him."Well, which is it?"
"Sorry?"
"No or I don't think so?" Tarkin asked.
"No." Jaime said.
"Good. Let's get to work."
"Uh, Arlington?" Somnambula said to him. The Weasel looked at her. They were in the caves."Would you like to walk with me? Maybe talk some more."
The Weasel smiled."Sure. I can go on a walk." He said and the two left the caves.
Stuhlinger, who had heard the Weasel speak many times before, looked at him as he left the caves."Are you okay, Stuhlinger?" Ocellus asked.
The man nodded."Yeah. It's just...that guy's voice reminds me of a bird I heard...a bird named Icarus." Stuhlinger said, remembering how he had heard voices when he was in the cryopod.
Princess Luna looked at the grave of John Soap Mactavish. They had buried Soap in the jungle."Luna?" Said Vanto, walking over to her."What are you doing here?"
"I was thinking about Soap." She said. There was silence for a moment."He was a soldier. Was he from your world?"
"I don't know." Said Vanto."Do you still have his journal?"
Luna nodded. She then remembered what Soap had said to her.
"Yuri...knows...Makarov."
The Weasel and Somnambula were walking through the forest."What's with the tattoo on your butt?" The Weasel asked her.
"Oh. That is my Cutie Mark. It shows my talent." Somnambula explained.
"Talent? Well, If I had a Cutie Mark, it would be about drawing." Arlington said then frowned when he remembered something about his art career.
"What's wrong?" Somnambula asked him.
"Nothing, it's just..." He sighed."I'm thinking about what my editor said about my comics. He said that I wasn't good. I don't think I'll ever be able to publish a comic." He said sadly.
Somnambula smiled at him."You just need to have hope, Arlington."
Suddenly, they heard a sound. The two looked at the source of the noise and saw a hideous creature jump out of a bush."Fuck!" The Weasel yelled. Somnambula then saw him pull out something. The metal weapon then made a loud sound.
The Weasel shot it on its left side before he shot it in the head. It was now dead. There was silence for nearly a minute.
Somnambula looked at him and the weapon."Weasel...where did you get that gun?" She asked him.
The Weasel stared at her for a long moment."Me and Handsome...when we woke up on this Island...we already had 4 M1911 pistols and some ammo."
"Well, you have to tell Vanto." Said Somnambula.
The Weasel was silent for a moment."Yeah...I guess should tell him."
Somnambula and Arlington returned to the caves to tell Vanto about the boar.
"How did you kill it?" Vanto asked them.
Arlington showed him the pistol."With this." He said. He then explained to Vanto that he had Handsome had pistols when they woke up on the Island.
"What were you doing before you woke up on the Island?" Vanto asked.
Killing the undead at the Golden Gate Bridge, The Weasel thought."Do you want the fuckin' guns or not?" The Weasel asked Vanto.
"He's not getting anything from us!" They all turned to look at Billy Handsome."Those guns are ours, okay?"
Vanto stared at Handsome for a long moment."Okay. But if we find Ethan and the others...then you will give us those pistols." Vanto then left.
Handsome looked at Arlington."I guess I can't trust a weasel." Handsome then left as well. The Weasel frowned a little at this.
"I trust you, Arlington." Said Somnambula.
Arlington smiled at her.
