Back on the Oblivion the team minus Jack meet in the conferences room to discuss the last mission. "So I think we all know why I have called you hear". Enquired Woodchip. "Oh oh oh we are having Jack put down aren't we? Oh please say we are. Can I host the funeral, don't worry there will be lots of cake and steamers". Replied a happy Jordan who was jumping on the spot with joy. "NO!" An angry CDThorne yelled .Scorpiontorn tried to say "beside streamers are ga" But was cut off by CDThorne who yelled "hold your tongue Scorp or I will have removed!"
After a brief pause Woodchip continued "Scorpiontorn because of your actions Jack is now confined to the medi bay for at-least a week. Do you have any idea how much danger that could put the rest of the team in if we have another find before then?" Scorpiontorn glared at him and yelled "If I had helped that little runt then I would have lost the chance to kill the other Luna followers. I did what I was taught to do. Beside I could have dealt with that situation so why couldn't he?" After another brief pause Monthrax explained "Scorp you may be able to be a backstabbing dim a dozen scumbag who hides in the shadows but jack's role is the get up close and kill. You are meant to look out for him not let him get hurt. Beside let's be honest here if we were to find an old puzzle that we needed to solve to pass, I think Jack would pass it quicker than you. Though I think a filly with a fresh poop in her diaper could solve it better than you". The expression on Scorpiontorn's face turned from anger to a new form of rage one would most likely call "squiggle". In a blind rage he bucked his way through the door and left. "So I think that went well" sighed CDThorne.
After a few hours things had started to calm down on the Oblivion. Woodchip had returned to his workshop. Scorpiontorn refused to leave his room, and Tyler had a little present to show the team. When he was not training his magic he would tinker with bits and bobs he found to see what he could make and well this time he made something big. "Mares and gentle colts oh and jack. I have called you hear to unveil a new toy for us to use. Now I must urge you all to not gasp in awe to much when you see this as well I don't know how delicate it is." Tyler said to his peers as they gathered around him. "Urrrg this is not going to go well" Sighed CDThorne under his breath. As Tyler turned to giant cloth sheet about 5 meters in length. It was dropped over a long unseen cylinder object that Tyler was holding up with his magic. "Hoof roll please" Asked Tyler to which Monthrax began stomping out a drum roll. "Mares and gentle colts of the jury before you I hold the great, the epic, the downright awesomeness that is the AOTB Sweet mother of Celestia nuke." Tyler yelled as he pulled off the sheet to revel a massive nuclear bomb, with a sun painted on its tip.
What happened next was not what Tyler thought would happen. Every-pony gasped in terror and started to back away from the bomb. Apart from Monthrax who yelled at the top of his lungs "Don't worry I will save us". Before lunging himself high into the air as he went to belly flop onto the nuke in an attempt to stop the blast from harming anyone. But as he did so Tyler used his magic to grab Monthrax and drop him on the floor upside down. "Don't do that ever again" uttered Tyler with an almost comical look of disgust on his face. "Don't worry its perfectly safe. Would I lie to you?" He continued. "Depends, the nuke is not a girl so I'm shore your telling the truth" Chuckled Jack. "Hey Jack next Christmas don't be surprised if this is stuffing your stocking, and I'm not on about the one you have under the chimney!" Tyler grunted back at Jack.
After a moment of silence Monthrax asked "What's the blast on this thing anyway?" Tyler looked blankly at it before turning back to Monthrax and saying "Well I don't know do I. I've only got the one and it's hardly reusable". This coursed a disgruntled look to appear on everyone's faces. "Where done here he said as he began to stomp away disappointed with how they disliked his toy.
In The ships workshop Woodchip has set up a shop. A few hours after Tyler's toy was shown off he has just finished serving CDThorne. "There you are. Mind how you go." He tells CDThorne after handing him his supplies. As he does this Monthrax enters the room, passing CDThorne as he is leavening. He asks for"Four Candles". Woodchip then follows to rummage around and presents him with four candles."No, four candles". An enraged Monthrax repeats." Well there you are four candles!" A confused woodchip responds. Monthrax then explains"No, fork handles! Handles for forks!" Woodchip stares blankly at Monthrax before saying "Fork handles. Thought you said 'four candles!". As he hands him a fork handle.
"Got any plugs?" Monthrax requests after a moment for silence. "hmmm plugs what kind of plugs?" a curious Woodchip responded."A rubber one, for the bathroom". "Oh right for the bathroom". To which Woodchip looks through a box to find some bath plugs. "What size?" he asked. To his horror Monthrax said "Thirteen amps". "But, you, ah, said, urrrg so you want an electric plug but for you to put in your bathroom". To which he presents a plug and hands it over. "Saw tips" Monthrax once again asks for. "Saw tips? Wait have you got spots on you're...""No no no I want saw tips. As in for covering hack saws". Monthrax quickly pointed out. "Oh no sorry I have not got any" A relived Woodchip told him.
They simply stared at each other until Monthrax said "O's". "O's". Woodchip enquired. "You know O's" Monthrax told him. Woodchip wander off and came back with a garden hoe. "No I want O's!" Demanded an angry Monthrax. So once again Woodchip went away and came back this time with a garden hose for watering crops. "NO O's!" Yelled Monthrax. "Do you mean panty O's" As he said this he handed Monthrax a pair of mares knickers. Making shore no one else was looking. Monthrax looked down in horror at the knickers before and backing away and saying "No I mean O's for my door. O for Monthrax. The letter O". With a look of embarrassment on his face Woodchip swiped away the knickers and left to go find the letters. He finally found them on the top shelf in a box at the back behind some crates. He hands Monthrax an O before spending a few minutes to put the box back. "Got any P's?" Asked Monthrax as Woodchip began to cry ever so slightly. He brought the box back after a few more minutes of climbing crates.
Monthrax just looked at the box silently for a moment not wanting to say his next words. Than finally he said it "No I mean canned peas for me to eat". Woodchip had to use all of his might to keep back the flow of anger he had just felt coarse through his body like wildfire. After giving Monthrax the peas he waited for the next moment of agony. Monthrax feeling quite guilty asked "Got any pumps?" Woodchip being quite carful procured "front hoof pump or hind hoof pump". "Hind hoof please". Confirmed Monthrax. After a long search Woodchip brings back a hoof pump for pumping up beds and such. "No I want pumps to wear on my back hoofs. Brown, size nine". It was too much for woodchip as he looked Monthrax in the eyes and said "get out of my shop or I'm getting my gun. Now this is not a hot bun or a hair in a bun I mean a bang you're not going to fly after this gun!"
