"I still can´t believe i agreed to this, maybe i should´ve just waited it out and taken lead as far as possible later."
You had been complaining about this for a while now and apparently Hulk was finally sick of it.
"Come on, Boss, i think you had thought of all the good reasons to say yes when you did it."
"Do not worry, sir, no one that doesn´t know already will ever find out, i like to think that it will do most ponies here in Manehattan good." Splicer added his opinion.
It was his Suggestion that you went here to delay the escalation for a bit, so here you, him and Hulk were, the latter with three huge gas canisters strapped to him, about to send out a fog laden with relaxants to calm the protesters outside down.
"Remind me again, how is drugging an entire City a good Thing?"
You have been undecided about this for a while, but Splicer had somehow brought up the better arguments.
"Well, firstly and most importantly it is no drug, we will set out only one canister, it will simply suppress the Feelings of Anger, hatred, Rage, whatever you want to call them they will simply be calmed down, not so much that they forget why they´re angry but enough so that their Anger will not control their Actions.
Secondly, the substance is not an artificial creation but natural essences that have this effect, it will be processed by the Body within a few hours, while the effects last a few days. there is absolutely no health risk, unless one were to inhale the whole can and even then it would at worst cause a prolonged time of unconsciousness." Splicer elaborated.
"huh, sounds like some pretty neat stuff, the Police would probably like it." Hulk added in.
You looked around the weather factory, the Boilers dutifully brewing up the steam to form clouds, the nightguard sound asleep in his chair, a Little dose of super relaxant to make sure it stood that way, and the schedule was morning mist to deal with the dry weather recently. a perfect opportunity for sure.
"So, theres the Distributor for fog, pegasi don´t do that manually because it is too thin to be tangible to them. we introduce the gas, throw the Switch and the worst will be prevented for now, did i get that right, splicer?"
"exactly, sir. The Distribution of the super relaxant will turn their righteous fury into mild displeasure, they will ´remain calm for a few days, a week if we are that lucky."
"unless they find out about this, then they will be mad, at us." Hulk adds in.
"he´s got a Point there. somepony will grow suspicious."
"by the time they reach the conclusion the gas will have already dissipated, there will be no Logical Explanation, much less proof of what we did." Splicer did seem pretty sure of this."
You got up to the Distributor, it was already filled and awaiting somepony to press the button in the morning.
"Okay, Hulk, give me one of those tanks."
You placed the tank under the intake and opened it, the pumps of the fog machine pulling the gas in and mingling it into the prepared fog.
"okay, all set, the Saturation will recede during Transport, the relaxant will spread as thin as the fog." Splicer looked at the control Panels.
"a full success."
"I wouldn´t Count on it, Boss, look over there."
You did, and saw the last Pony that you´d want to see you here.
"Good evening, Thunderstorm."
Nice chapter with a cliffhanger, but what's up with the capitalization?
And B seems fun, although C could give an interesting dynamic.
It's good to see this story again! I would like to see Luna here. Celestia would be an Interesting choice as well. But I'd like to see Luna more.
it has to be princess celestia
celestia wouldn't send any of the mane six into danger
I don't think apple cobbler has wings
he doesn't really know cadance
luna maybe but why would she be here if celestia is there already?

a mixture of german autocorrect and Translation issues.
also, Little clarification, the manehattan weather plant is situated on the ground.
3549761 Ah ok then.
B: The Princess herself, Luna
If it is to be a princess, it should be Luna. It is night after all.
I think the princess would see that I am trying to stop the inevitable violence about to take place, whereas Apple Cobbler would think I am poisoning Manehattan, making things more interesting.
My choice? C: Apple Cobbler
Luna. 'I' may attempt to explain things to her and prevent a huge misunderstanding. For instance, if 'I' relay the details to her appropriately then she will find it to be beneficial, though unorthodox it can prevent any unrest and complications for either group. In a way, I'm doing everyone a favour while I'm carrying out the plan. Besides, she already trusts us a bit more considering she's on our side, which would make convincing her less of a hazard.
Celestia would just complicate things, as would anyone of the mane six (though out of the six of them, RD is the most likely here), and Apple Cobbler is not likely to be here, unless he had some support of a unicorn. It would also require me to explain the situation with cautioned words and not make this look worse than it actually is. I might be able to persuade him as well possibly, I don't know...

refer to my last reply here, this is not "the" weather factory, it´s an auxiliary plant for manehattan that is on the ground.
I'm going to vote Luna. The likely hood of any of the mane six being there and me actually knowing who they are at first glance is unlikely since I've been in prison for most of my life.
And AC wouldn't be stupid enough to follow me without my permission.
So it seems Peicess Luna might be the obvious choice here, I hope you agree.

Fair enough. Just saying that RD would've been more likely out of six, NOT because of which particular place it is, but rather the the area it is in. AJ, like Apple Cobbler would need the same asistance to even be there, Twilight and Rarity may have better chances, yet the reason for being there may not be as likely. Fluttershy... I don't think this requires much debate. Think about it.
Pinkie Pie is more of an oddball out of the six due to her law-defying abilities and her spontaneous behaviour (Honestly, she has a form of omniscence and omnipresent capabilities, she more than likely knows she's in the middle of a fanfic... Screw physics, I'm Pinkie Pie ). Even then it wouldn't make sense. RD however, she would likely be in the area (as for why she would be there is up for debate) considering she may be more likely to be within the vacinity of the situation. But like I said before, even then it doesn't seem likely for any of the mane six to be encountered.
