{Third PoV}
And there was none. Well, none that weren’t booked anyway. Apparently there was a coronation, and the ‘purple killer’ as Fourth called her, was now a Princess. That just made the mare all the more scared.
Fourth Wall and Mitta settled for an empty alleyway with two trash cans(thank god they weren’t full).
The two slept next to one another to keep warm, but that didn’t help much. When they woke up, Fourth didn’t feel good. Luckily she didn’t have a cold. They’d need all the pony power they could muster for taking down Sunny Town.
Then there was this ‘Displaced’ thing. How or why would anypony need her? Sure she had some of Pinkie’s powers over physics, and even some skill with knives(though how, she wasn’t sure). But how would that help someone who was fighting something even Blood Cleaver couldn’t face? She shook the thought out of her head.
“That was tough on my stomach…” Fourth mumbled, to which Mitta nodded.
“We need to get something to help use. I think I got a cramp…” Mitta lazily stood up. The front of her red mane was sticking up. Fourth Wall laughed her flank off. “What’s so…” The undead pony looked up, a sighed. “Not funny. We need to take care of Sunny Town, and I doubt we’ll get help by asking. We’ll need to get information.”
Fourth finally calmed down, and sat back up. “What would we need? I’ve got a weapon, you got your… whatever, and we’re both earth ponies. I don’t think magic can help since we can’t use the stuff. What would we need to learn other than how to kill them, and even though they are scary and evil, I can’t just outright kill them. Even if I could… How are we going to beat them?”
The pink mare's question made Mitta facehoof. She rubbed her face a bit, then asked, “What were we thinking? We should just leave before they overrun Ponyville!”
Fourth gave Mitta a disapproving look. “No. My friends live here, and I’m going to protect them, and Apple Bloom.” Mitta gave Fourth a sad frown.
“Look… There’s nothing we can do… I really wish there was…”
But Fourth Wall didn’t cave. “I’m going into that forest tonight whether you're coming or not. I don’t even care if I die in the process. I’m going.”
The two sat in silence. Neither wanted to break it, and Mitta was in turmoil. After ten minutes, she sighed.
“Fine…”
Fourth Wall suddenly smiled, and embraced the grey mare. Mitta was surprised, but didn’t reject. During the hug, Mitta saw Fourth Wall’s mane and tail were as poofy as Three Leaf’s. ‘Does this mare’s mane change between straight and poofy?’
The two finally broke apart, though Fourth was more reluctant.
“I still think it’s a bad idea… But I have nothing to live for anyway, so why not?”
Fourth ignored what Mitta said after the pause. “I think you should check the library and learn about curses. Maybe that’ll help with our resolve!”
Mitta nodded. “And you?”
Fourth Wall gained a sheepish grin. “I kinda want to check the town. I’ll pretend to be Pinkie, and I doubt they’ve been looking for me, so I’ll be fine.”
Mitta didn’t seem to sure about that, but gave in with a nod.
“Later!” Fourth said, hugging Mitta. The hug lasted four-point-two second, before the pink mare disappeared.
Mitta shook her head as she looked around. “I need to figure out that mare...”
