Listen...calm down.  I don't know what I did to upset you, but I can assure you that I didn't mean too do it.  Today has been very confusing for me and- >The Pony interrupts your diplomacy with another shovel swing. >On reflex, you trow up a shield construct to take the impact. >The sight of the construct does shock the orange pony, but not enough for her to falter. That's it, I tried talking, no more mister nice lantern! >You make a claw construct and grab the shovel, wrenching it away, with considerable effort, from the pony-creature, it barely mouths a "what the-?" before you set your next construct upon it. >A rope lasso. >You saw Guy Gardner do this with a wild Merna beast. >It should be effective against a small, orange hat-wearing pony. >It contemplates the lasso around it's neck for a moment before looking straight at you. >"So this is the game you wanna play?", she speaks (that voice, definitely female...odd accent though). >A devious smile comes over her face, "Fine by me!"   ...   >You are Anon Ymous of Rann, Green Lantern of Sector 2828. >And you are airborne without the aid of your power ring. >Not that it would do you much good anyway, what with the recent trauma your head has endure. >Aside from the two high altitude impacts you endured earlier, you've spent the past 15 minutes being slammed into trees by a small orange pony whose form conceals considerable strength. >It only occurred to you to break your rope construct when she brought you overhead with the intent of slamming into the ground. >Luck being the evil bitch that she it, you ended up doing this right at the apex of her swing, launching you at a considerable distance. >As you come into the view of a nearby farmhouse, and two more (very confused) ponies, a large red one and a smaller yellow one, you impact the ground quite hard. >Your ring probably decided it had enough of your stupid shit and didn't save you this time. >You see stars as the orange pony trots up to you. >"Welp!  That settles that!  You go ahead n' take a little nap now, I reckon you could use one.  We'll deal with tha' nuts n' bolts when you wake up." Yes...ma'am... >The blissful black takes you into wonderful unconsciousness....
