Emerald feels like he should just go out and look for Joyride. Right now. His head tells him though, that he has no leads, and that it would be dangerous and probably pretty stupid. He can’t just sit around and do nothing though. Emerald stands up and starts pacing, and then he catches Ruby’s eye.
 
She’s still looking at him.
 
Emerald scratches the back of his head, and then tells Ruby what the guard said. He then asks if she wants anything from the kitchenette. Maybe just walking over there will give him some sort of accomplishment.
 
“Just some water, I guess.” Ruby says, plopping down onto the cot.
 
Emerald walks out the door and over to the kitchenette, but stops just outside the door as he starts to hear the conversation two guards are having.
 
“~~crazy dude they just brought in? Cursing up a storm and resisting like crazy. Says those foals Dejen brought in killed his son and that he demands they be brought to justice.” One of the guards say.
 
“What, does he think those kids were soldiers or something?” Another one says.
 
The first one replies, “I don’t know. Guy is nuts. Though did you hear what they said? The filly can use magic. Had a little book of spells and everything apparently, and some potions too.”
 
Through a mouth of food, the second one says “Ha! Really? Shame more of the ponies around here don’t pick that stuff up. Maybe would have helped them. Did you hear? That cute mare from the Millet cafe got kidnapped a little while ago. Whoever it was beat the crap out of the husband left him for dead.”
 
“No way…” The first pony says shocked, “He going to be okay?”
 
“Yeah. They got him over to Holy Hooves pretty quick. Those doctors there are geniuses I tell ya. He’s conscious, but they say it’ll be a while before he can leave.”
