(As Strongheart and Goldfin leave the room, Decibelle reviews the security footage one more time. Against an enemy that can turn into vapor, her flying and wind powers could be a useful defense, but there was still so little about these "Horses of the Apocalypse" that she knew.)

Decibelle: Snowy Sky may not get along well with the others... but she's still a Power Pony. She's still one of us. ...Right? We gotta save her. *sigh* But I don't even know where she was taken to...

Orbit: You sound troubled.

(Decibelle turns to face Orbit.)

Decibelle: Oh. Hey, Cap.

Orbit: These kinds of lulls between missions can make even the best of us feel helpless.

Decibelle: Tell me about it...

Orbit: Don't worry yourself about Dazzling Light. We'll get her back. Just like we got Vandle back. For now, I'm expecting a transport from Stabelle Reve to arrive and pick up Bedew.

Decibelle: Stabelle Reve? W-We're throwing her in jail already?

Orbit: ...She's a criminal, Freeheart.

Decibelle: I-I know that, but... she really wants to turn things around.

Orbit: I'm aware. Which is why I want you to accompany her.

Decibelle: Why me?

Orbit: You're a natural empath. I'm not sure what it is -- maybe a byproduct of your nursing background -- but you feel symapthy for almost everypony you meet. Bedew trusts you. So if there's anyone to speak in her favor, it's you.

Decibelle: That seems like a tall order...

Orbit: I won't ask you to do more than you're capable.

Decibelle: I understand. I'll do my best.

(With a firm nod, Orbit leaves to report to the infirmary, where Vandle and the other two tower rescuees lie sedated. He runs a computer analysis to determine exactly -- or as close to exact as possible -- what's been done to them.)
