Switchblade frowned and snuggled into Dust's side. They sat in comfortable silence for a few minutes while Switch absently played with the flowers surrounding them. She glanced down after a moment, noticing that she had twisted them together to make a crown.
Switchblade smiled softly, putting the flowers on Dark's head before he could protest.

Dark, who had begun snoozing off, woke up and gave a small jump in surprise and put his hoof on the flowers. He looked down at Switchblade and grinned. "I see you've been busy. Sorry I conked out there. Did I miss anything?"

"Nah, just-" Switchblade was interrupted by two loud roars behind them. She jumped, her eyes landing on a manticore standing with his mate at edge of the meadow closest to Switch and Dark.

Dark yawned and stood up. He stared at the manticores with disinterest. "I'm too tired to tell. Are they looking at us?" He chuckled as he stretched. "I think they're looking at us. Think they want to join us for a double date, Precious?"

"Or maybe they're just looking for their dinner." Switchblade muttered, standing.

Dark shrugged and held Switch in place with his wing. "Why don't we wait and see what happens? If they come to eat us, I'll distract them while you run. If they're minding their own business, we let them be.

"Yeah, I'm not leaving you here all alone. You may come from the Afterlife, but there's no way I'm going to watch you die." Switchblade argued.

Dark looked down at Switchblade and frowned. "What? You see me die all the time. Just last week, you saw me scratch myself so much from ticks that I kept cutting myself from my claws and died from blood loss. How would this be any different?"

Switchblade huffed. "Yeah, but those times weren't being viciously ripped apart by manticores."

Dark laughed. "The week before that, I almost had my soul ripped out of my body, got all my bones broken, lost one of my hearts, stabbed in the eye, and tortured in the worst ways possible in an attempt to save my universe, but you weren't around for that one. Honestly, you're more protective of me than anyone else back home. But okay. I'll humor you. How do you want to handle this?"

The manticores sniffed the air a few times before they started to sprint towards Dark and Switch.
"Maybe do something to get out of the way?" Switchblade suggested.

Dark smiled and gently pushed Switch forward. "Don't you have a gun? All I have are claws, and I'm too tired to fly away." He said in a teasing manner. "Or would you prefer I deal with them with your supervision?"

"I really need to learn to start taking my weapons with me whenever I go out with you." Switch sighed, shaking her head. "So, no. And how the heck do you deal with a manticore?"

Dark grinned and stepped in front of Switch. "Leave this to me. I promise I won't get mauled, I'll just need them to take one bite from me." He held his hoof out on front of the manticores and looked back at Switch. "I'd take cover if I were you. This is going to get bloody."

"Oh, how very sweet." Switch said sarcastically. "But you're not even going to let me-" she stopped, her brow furrowing. "There's only one of them there, now." The pegasus muttered, freezing at the sound of large paw steps behind her.
