Edgar walked up to Ration at the front of the army and said, "Where are Derpy she was nowhere to be found and one of the troops are missing."
Ration spoke quietly as he leaned closer to Edgar "I have sent her on a scouting mission and she will not be joining us for the battle, I can't have her actually fight"
"Acheron isn't this a bit much to kill one pony" Carrot Top yelled tiredly.
Acheron turned to Carrot Top and said, "She has an army at her back and is planning to kill me also I'm not only going to kill her."
Carrot Top gave off a small smile and said, "What are you going to kill the princesses" after a few seconds of silence Carrot Top sat up and said, "You aren't going to kill the princesses are you?"
Acheron laughed and sighed "I'm only going to kill Celestia, Luna never did me any wrong." Carrot Top sat back down and gave a sarcastic frown. Carrot Top turned around and watched as Acheron's army got bigger and so did the creatures.
"How far do we have to go it's getting to cold for me to fly" Derpy shouted over the swirling wind.
"We have to go all the way to the summit" a skeleton with a large backpack shouted.
Another skeleton ran to catch up to Derpy "Here take this it should help you stay warm." The skeleton handed her a blanket that was just plain white but had different stitching in each corner.
Derpy thanked him when the other skeleton shouted "Come on we still have a while. Derpy wrapped the blanket around herself like a cloak. Derpy ran up to the skeleton as they kept marching through the snow.
"It's been hours since she has had a break," said the skeleton who had handed Derpy the blanket.
"I guess that is true and it's getting dark" The skeleton leaned down and took off his backpack. He smiled and shouted to derpy "Want to see something you have never seen before"? Derpy looked confused as she walked over to him. The skeleton lifted the backpack up and slammed it on the ground suddenly four bars stuck out of the bag and formed a cone. Cloth came out of the bag and covered the pole creating a small tent. Derpy smiled in awe, she walked around inspecting the outside of the tent.
The skeleton shouted, "We can wait out here but you can stay in there." Derpy thanked him and got inside, the tent didn't have a bottom layer to separate derpy from the snow so she used the cloak instead.
Derpy popped her head out of the tent, "What were your names?"
The skeleton who had the backpack on shouted back, "I am Barry and he is John." Derpy nodded and retreated back into the tent. Derpy looked up to see the bag at the top of the tent so she reached up and went through it. She found some food and water but noticed a smaller bag in the bottom. she pulled it out and opened it but before she got the chance to look inside she heard a loud roar from outside. She picked up the blanket shook it off and put it on herself. When she poked her head outside the tent John covered her mouth. Derpy nodded and got out of the tent she looked in the direction of the noise to see giant ice monsters.
