Episode 36: In Which Walt Whinny Rolls In His Grave
Opening Theme:
The Rutherford's Comment
Your day with your daddy was the best one yet. You have not had this much fun with just him since that time you went to spa for that daddy-daughter day. Come to think of it, wasn't that the last time you two had a day together without being on the run? As you ponder this you remember all the fun things you guys did.
Earlier
Well obviously the first thing you did while seeing all the bright lights and happy sounds was realize one thing. You were starving. You see a food booth serving Walter Wombat shaped burgers.
"Daddy?"
"Yes dear?"
You point to the burger stand.
"Can I have some bits to get us Whinny Burgers? I'm a bit hungry."
Your dad looks at the stand and goes bug-eyed (hee hee. I will have to tell Mommy that joke tonight.) When he looks at the sign, he opens his mouth in a frown when *GURGLE* his belly starts growling.
"Yeah here's some bits. Order mine with cheese and a large Sarsaparilla."
*25 Bits gained*
"OK. But why aren't you coming with me?"
"I, um, need to write something to a friend."
"Um, OK?"
You walk away as your dad pulls out a piece of paper and starts writing. You walk up to the stall.
"Excuse me sir, I would like to order three Whinny Burgers with cheese, and all the fixings. Ooh and a large Sarsaparilla, and one in one of those souvenir cups please."
The stallion at the stand takes the order and tallies the total. He gives you a blank look that sends shivers down your spine as he says,
"25 bits."
"Really? That is a lot. Good thing that Daddy gave me that much for it."
"That's Whinny Land for you filly. Everything is overpriced and we have to act as happy as possible or we get in trouble."
What truly unnerved you was that as he said this depressing speech, he sounded cheerful and happy, while his eyes looked annoyed. The cashier gives you your order and the receipt and you start walking back to the table your dad is at. As you do you can't help but think,
Despite the way that stallion sounded, he seemed really unhappy. I wonder why. Isn't Whinny Land supposed to be the "Happiest Place in Equestria"?
You come out of your deep thought as you approach the table and a weird pink flash comes from where your dad was sitting. You look to see him smiling (how you can tell with his mask on is not important but you can), especially as he sees you. You give your own smile, which soon turns into a confused look as you ask,
"Uh Daddy...what was that strange light?"
Your daddy coughs nervously before saying,
"I was just testing something real quick, nothing to worry about dear. Now hand me that burger, I'ma starving."
You give your dad a blank stare, but just sigh before sitting next to him and hoofing him his meal. The both of you soon begin to dig into your respective meals in a nice silence. That silence is soon interrupted by your dad as he says,
The Pony Spartan's Comment
"Honey. I'm sorry I've been very strict lately. I just don't want you to fight and get hurt. I don't know what will happen if you do and I don't want to know."
You realize that your daddy was kinda right, but you did beat Sombra and he is a powerful king. How come he still didn't trust you to fight other stupid ponies, dragons, wood, and animals.
"Daddy I can fight. I beat Sombra remember? And I also beat that Garble dragon."
"I know you did honey but I still don't want to risk it. What if a boulder comes flying down at you?"
"I'll teleport away," You immediately reply, taking another bite of your cotton candy.
"Uh... well... what if something stops your magic!"
"Daddyyy..." You whine.
"I know, but it can happen. Twilight did it to me a couple of times."
"Really?"
"Yeah, and it almost got me captured by the Deadly Six"
This made you think about past decisions and if they were too risky. Your dad suddenly gets a very...pained look, as if he just fought all of the Deadly Six without being able to use his skill set, as he says,
"I know everything may seem easy Nightshade, and some stuff is, but there are things that can happen to make things change in a flash. Some things that no matter how much you try you can never correct."
You don't like this look your daddy has, or the tone he's using when he says that. It makes you feel...scared. Like your daddy is disappearing and you'll never see him again. You quickly decided you do not like this look on your daddy, nor do you ever wish to see it on his face ever again. You silently make a vow to make sure your daddy never makes that face again as you say,
"A-...Alright, daddy. I'll try to stay safe from danger." Before you let your dad nod or say something stupid, you bark at him, "But that doesn't mean I won't fight! if someone is trying to hurt my friends or family I'll definitely teach them a lesson with a good ol' falcon kick!"
You dad laughs and hugs you. "That's my girl! A badflank superhero who fights first and asks questions later! Daddy's so proud! Now come on, lets finish up these burgers so we can go on some rides."
With that said the both of you do just that, but not before throwing your trash away like a responsible pony should. As you throw your trash away you discover something super cool that you need your daddy to see. So you call back to him,
TartarusFire's Comment
"Hey dad! Look what I found!"
Your father looks over to the trashcan and gains a blank look as he says in a deadpanned tone,
"It looks like a trashcan, sweetie. Look over there, about twenty feet, there's another one."
You roll your eyes at this before you say,
"Yes, but look at what it can do!"
You the proceed to pick up a nearby rock and toss it into trashcan. A loud woosh is heard after the flap was closed, and the rock clunks away in some unknown tube. Your daddy's eyes widen at this and he soon get's a concerned look before he says,
"Nightshade, you might want to stay back, it could be dangerous..."
"All the better reason to investigate then! If it's dangerous I can take it down!"
You hop up top of the trash can and open the flap.
"No-no, we just talked about this!"
"Adventure~" You yell as you get sucked down the pipe.
Somewhere underground, a large container starts shaking.
"Hey Sewage, did you hear that?"
"Nah Waste, some kid probably just threw another rock in."
A minute later the banging becomes unbearable, and the container splits open revealing You.
"Aha! A race of underground Mole Ponies! What's your game stealing our trash?!" you accuse pointing at the two stallions.
The two workers look at each other. "We are so fired."
MEANWHILE BACK WITH BUGZE (YOU)
Your eyes widen to the size of dinner plates as you stare at where Nightshade was sucked into. You would have continued to stare if it weren't for the shrill scream in your head followed by Selena's panicked voice,
Bugze! We have to get Nightshade back!
You snap out of it from her voice as you think,
I know! I'm trying to think of something to do!
Well hurry up! She could suffocate down there... wherever there is!
...*ding*
I got it!
Good, now tell me what it is before you do anything...
You proceed to jump into the trashcan, worming your way down...until your rump get's stuck in the opening of the trash can, leaving you stuck in the trashcan.
..rash...*slap* ARE YOU BUCKING KIDDING ME?!
You wince slightly at Selena's loud shout as she continues,
Really? Did you seriously just get stuck? Now we'll have to wait for some random passerby to pull your idiotic flank out of here! Honestly Bugze of all the dumb ideas you've had this is by far the dumbest one...today at least.
Before you can retort to Selena's insult you hear your daughter's voice from behind you say,
"Hey Daddy! I found out what the trashcans were!"
"Nightshade? How'd you get out?" you ask.
"The sewage pony helped get out after I broke their pipe."
You hear a cough, "Well we can't have fillies get lost after all, but can you please not have your children jumping into trashcans?"
"It wasn't my idea, and that is great and all, but can you please get me out of this trashcan now?!"
POV SWITCH: NIGHTSHADE
After a few awkward minutes of trying to get your daddy out of the trashcan, you say goodbye to the friendly ponies who helped you out. You also had to sign something called an 'incident report' and swear to not tell their bosses about them. You didn't really understand why, but you can respect someling's privacy...that or you're like your daddy where you ask questions way later on in life.
Anyway, you and your daddy begin to search Whinnyland for some rides to go on now that food and random side quests are done, and you find the perfect one when you see...
Go on the tea cup ride and get dizzy from spinning around so fast.
The Spinning Tea Cups! Sweetie Belle told you about these after she and her parents came here.
"That one!" you cry as you rush forth and get on.
"Wait, Honey, maybe you should wait, you only just ate!" your dad calls after you, but you ignore him.
Getting on the ride, it starts slowly as it starts spinning and you cheer at the top of your lungs.
"Woooo This is great!"
But slowly the ride picks up more speed, spinning faster and faster, and you stop cheering so loudly.
"Ooooooohhhhhh..." you moan as your stomach starts feeling funny.
the other passengers see your face and they start getting panicked as they call out,
"Stop the ride, stop the ride!"
Your cheeks bulge as your queasiness reaches a new level.
"I apologize in advance for this..." you moan before putting your head over the edge of the ride and...
"BBBLLLEEEEEGGGGHHHH!!!"
Losing your Lunch, not just onto the ground, but onto some innocent bystanders. The ride stops much too late, but by then your stomach actually feels a lot better.
As the ponies around the area either faint in disgust or runaway in fear you just walk over to your daddy and give a small adorable burp before saying,
"That's better."
Your daddy just sighs before taking out a napkin to wipe your mouth while saying,
"I knew going on this ride right after eating was a bad idea. *Sigh* oh well, nothing can change it now. Let's get out of hear before security finds us."
You nod your head as the both of you begin to leave,
Grey Rebl's Comment
And you all decide to hit the next ride...that has a super long line. You had gotten into it a few minutes ago, but it feels like you've barely moved an inch...
Congratulations. You have come to experience the majority of what Whinny Land has to offer: Waiting in Line.
"So. Booored!" you whine, of which Daddy just pats your head, telling you to be patient.
From the middle of the line, standing impatiently on the staircase leading up to the platform, you hear a voice, presumably belonging to one of the park goers "...Oh my bucking god, what do you mean he's not tall enough?!"
"That's what it says, sorry."
You can only assume that the ponies up there are arguing over whether or not somepony can go on the ride. Of course, one side is trying to negotiate, being the ones who had to wait in line for a pretty long time. This eventually causes a scene that catches the attention of those waiting line. For them, it's entertainment. As for you, though, you lean against the railing boredly, not giving the argument much thought.
Is it strange how I can think that someling else's misfortune is, well, just simply boring? You shrug. Not much to think about there. You then decide to talk to Daddy to ease the waiting.
"You know, with all the hype, you'd think Whinny Land would be a bit more...," you glance at the intense squabble occuring on the platform above you both, "...Foal-friendly."
"I think this just an exception," he replies uninterestingly. "With my luck, this might make it take even longer to wait."
"Buck You Lady Luck, gotta ruin this but not the other stuff?" you mumble to yourself.
Some nearby adults give you a shocked look, while your father chuckles nervously and pulls you in close.
"We're in public honey, language," he chides while you roll your eyes.
After a long, long while, you finally got your turn. It's the moment of truth. After waiting in line for so long, you can now dictate whether or not it was worth it. You get on the ride, feeling the warmth of the seat contrasting with the cold metal around it. Everything locks into place and the ride—
—The ride ends.
You're not sure how exactly the time has passed, but needless to say, the ride defies your every expectation. And the laws of physics. In fact, it trancended EVERYTHING that your thoughts could conceive! You can say that your brain got buzzed so much after the ride that you practically forget the whole experience in an attempt to flush out all of the impossible twists and turns and crud that has happened. Truly, it's a magical, magical world, this Whinny Land.
"...what the buck happened?" Daddy says dumbfoundedly as he looks around in confusion.
"That. Was. Awesome!" you yell excitedly. "Let's do it again!"
Your daddy looks back to the long line you were all just in and asks, "Are you sure honey?"
"Heck ya, that ride was totally worth it!" you reply.
He sighs and you both head back into line.
"Wow, who'd have thunk that a ride with spinning plastic elephants would be the greatest thing ever?!"
Daddy shrugs, noticeably less enthusiastic then your bouncing form.
ANOTHER RIDE LATER
BrownDog's Comment
After that last confusing ride, you and your daddy go on a few more. The rides are pretty fun. You really enjoy the new Harry Trotter attraction. Although Daddy got a bit upset.
"Hufflepuff?! What are you smoking that you think I'm a Hufflepuff?!" he growled at the actor with the Sorting Hat.
"Uh...fine, you're uh...Slytherin!" he nervoulsy responds.
"I am not a violent sociopath! You take that back or I'll destroy you!"
"Sir, I just work here..." he groans.
You of course were in Gryfindor, as if there was any doubt. Daddy, also finally calmed down a bit after having genuine Butterbeer in a bottle, while you bought all kinds of trick candies.
Also, now that the Walt Whinny Corporation owns Star Wars, there are plenty of troopers and light sabers around. The new park dedicated specifically to Star Wars isn't open yet, but they have their own corner of the main park.
There’s even a line for kids to meet Darth Vader and “Fight” him. You smirk at this as you decide to turn a few heads.
You walk up to the black clad Sith and he says, “Join the Dark Side…”
With Bugze (You) In The Crowd
“Did she just join the dark side? Oh what the heck!”
She is still my daughter after all, *giggle*
Back with You.
The actor finally improvises a line,
“V-very well my new apprentice…um…perhaps we should…uh…”
“We should dance to celebrate!” you yell, further confusing him as more adults and kids laugh.
A boombox carrying mare even plays a funky tune that you start dancing to, causing all the kids and storm troopers to join in.Vader realizes the masses have spoken, and takes over as leader of the dancing…making quite possible the greatest thing ever.
After that little bit of madness, you walk back to your daddy you see him wiping tears of joy as he pats your head before saying,
"That was so beautiful honey. You are the best daughter in the world, you know that?"
You giggle at this before boastingly saying,
"Of course, the best daughter for the bestest daddy!"
"Thanks baby," he says with a hidden smile, but you can still tell.
"And hey, did you like what I did with Darth Vader Mommy?"
"It was rather amusing my precious, perhaps there is hope for you yet," she says with daddy's mouth, causing him to frown, while you giggle.
"Anyway, it's getting kind of late baby, we've gone on most of the main rides, but we still have to get going before Shining Armor gets into town," he explains.
You sigh and nod at this but then you look up and ask, "Can we go on just one more? Please Daddy?"
He sees you giving the puppy dog eyes (works every time) and he gives in.
"Alright Shade, just one more."
"YAY!"
Your daddy give you a light hug before you both begin to look for one more ride to go on. After walking around for awhile you spot a interesting one, and you point at it as you say,
"Oh! Let's go on that one daddy!"
Your daddy nods his head before saying,
"Okay, but last one before we go okay? We're almost out of bits...again."
You nod your head at this as you both head in.
LITERALLY FIVE MINUTES LATER
You find yourself running with your Daddy out the front door with other ponies following away from the burning remains of the ride.
“Why would you do that? I know I have problems with Arson, but you?!” your daddy scolds.
“But the singing daddy! The singing! It’s a small world after a-AAAAAA!!!! Make it stop!”
Suddenly behind you, you both hear a very, VERY loud explosion, causing you to both turn around. Several more rides are on fire and everyone is being evacuated.
You look up to Daddy and give a nervous chuckle, "Uh...heh heh...whoops?"
"Grounded," is all Daddy says, causing you to look down and say,
"Buck..."
You both then realize the park is slowly catching fire so you both evacuate.
LATER AT THE TRAIN STATION
POV SWICH: BUGZE (YOU)
Kichi's Comment
As you, Nightshade, and Aqua wait at the train station, you look back at where Whinnyland is as a great fire is consuming every part of it, even Ocean World, a great park dedicated to seaponies is somehow in fire. Apparently the ride that Nightshade set on fire was near a firework display, which was next to a lumber storage, which was next to some explosives they were saving for a show later.
Basically, Nightshade's fire managed to get even more bigger and stronger due to poor placement on the staff's part, so this chain of events lead to the destruction of Whinyland.
Or at least enough of the park to close it down.
Luckily, in all the confusion, no one saw how exactly the fire got started...heck, you're not even sure yourself how Nightshade did it, and you were sitting right next to her.
Still, it's decidedly not the happiest place on earth right now.
As you stare at the frightening, terrible, and all around Beautiful flames being put out by fire ponies, Nightshade chirps beside you.
"Oh my gosh Daddy! It was so fun! Can we go another time in a future? Can we?"
"Maybe in a future honey, maybe in a future...after they rebuild some of the rides"
"I think you need to control a how much sugar you let her have. Plus why do I always miss out on the cool stuff happening?! This is like the fifth time you blew something up and I missed out! So not fair!" huffs Aqua
"Well sorry, it's not like we plan them out or anything! They're spur of the moment."
"Whatevs..." she says crossing her arms.
"Language!" Nightshade barks at Aqua causing her to recoil confused.
"What? But I didn't-"
"No using Valley Filly language here lady!"
You smile proudly at that as Aqua rolls her eyes and says,
"OK, OK, whatever, happy?"
"Yes actually," Nightshade says happily.
While Aqua rolls her eyes once again, you speak up.
"Alright, let's calm down here. We're all still friends, no need to go fighting like we're Knights."
They both nod at this, and Nightshade perks up.
"Yeah, you're right! Now that Whinny Land is done, let's continue our adventure! Punish the bad guys, make them cry and kick them in their balls..."
"Seriously, she worries me..." Aqua mutters.
"...The sooner we take them out, the sooner we can go back to Ponyville" she finishes.
"Yeah, Yeah... Wait, what? What's this about going back to Ponyville?" you ask. Nightshade looks back at you with a confused expression and asks,
"After we capture all the knights and we take out their organization we are going back to Ponyville, right? And then I can go back to crusading with the girls and hanging out with Spike?"
"Umm....well you see honey...that's a bit...complicated..." you fumble.
Her ears suddenly go down in sadness as she asks, "We're never going back?"
"I...Uh...Well..." you fumble as you look at her say face, before making up an excuse. "Maybe in the future honey, but we can't think about that now. Like you said, first we need to take down the knights."
"Well alright then...stupid bucking Knights..." she mumbles to herself before letting out a big yawn.
"Oh well look at that, seems it's someling's bedtime," you tease.
"Yeah...we had a big day...I'm gonna catch a few winks. Night Daddy, Night Aqua!" she says as she jumps into your saddle bags where you hear her say, "Night Mangle."
You let out a sigh before saying to Aqua, "Well I'm not too far behind her."
"Same. Today was a draining day. I still can't believe you went to a theme park after all of it."
"Hey, I made a promise to her. I have to keep as many as I can to make up for the others I've broken..." you lament, before shaking your head from these thoughts. "So anyway, how'd it go with Maud?"
"She left on a train not long after we split up. We said our usual goodbyes, and I asked her to stick around, but family comes first for her. She took that money straight back to the farm. Still can't believe some two bit thief had the nerve to steal from them, AND got away with it."
"Well if you believe in Karma, I'm sure that mare will get what's coming to her..."
A shiver of fate swims over you causing you to shiver, but you brush it off. It happens so often you tend to ignore it.
"But yeah, shame Maud had to go. But I get it, home is where the heart is."
"Yeah, speaking of home, what was up with that Ponyville stuff earlier?"
"Huh?"
"The Kid, when she was talking about going back to Ponyville like she missed it? What's up with that? Aren't the Elements of Harmony there?"
"I...well...you see it's comp-"
"No, uh-uh, no it's complicated to me. Why would the kid miss the place where your greatest enemies live?"
You sigh and say, "Weeeee...stayed there for a bit incognito."
"Seriously? Right under there noses? Why would you do that?"
"It's not like I had a choice I was kind of doing someone a favor, and don't ask WHO because that is a can of worms I do not want to dig into."
"Alright?" she says confused.
"Yeah...anyway, she made some friends there and it's no surprise she misses them. But I had to get out of there since interacting with those mares on daily basis was giving me a headache...plus Nightshade was getting too chummy with a few colts and a certain DRAGON!" you growl.
"Yeesh, overprotective much?" You give her a deadpanned stare and she chuckles,
"Guess that was a dumb question, heh heh."
"Eyup. But still, after everything that happened in Fillydelphia I couldn't just sit around anymore, and I'm really in no hurry to go back there...even if she misses it so much."
Aqua nods at this as you then both see the train light coming in the distance.
"I get what you mean. But can I offer a little advice?"
"Sure," you say nonchalantly.
"When it comes to friends, I'm not much of an expert. There's only a few I truly trust, but when it comes down to it, I'd do anything for them. The Kid seems to already have found her close buddies, so it wouldn't be good for anypony to NEVER let them see each other again."
You sigh at this.
"I know...and I know you'll hate this, but it really is complicated..."
"Eh, food for thought CV. Anyway looks like our ride is here, and with it, sleep."
The Train pulls up in front of you.
"Now Arriving, Applewood to Vanhoover. All Aboard," comes a voice from overhead.
"Vanhoover here we come," you say aloud as you board the train.
2 Days Later
You step off of the train into a seaside town where the sky seems to be perpetually covered by clouds, and the air always seems wet.
You steel your eyes looking at this big city as you say aloud, "Alright, let's see how Rutherford and Solarkness's little money plan will work on this KERSEY!!!
WHAT DO YOU DO?

Meanwhile in a jail somewhere
"I still can't believe that he got you two... I mean, really? Me it was luck and I was weakened, but you two? You even got a dragon working for you, how did they got you?" Ask Kichi in his cell
Kichi discovered the day before that Rutherford and Solarkness have been captured, and by some strange coincidence, they were in a cell near him, and as he was a little bored but feed himself of the little friendship, if it could be called that to what have the knights between them and there was not other thing to do, he decided to talk.
"I suposse Kersey is going to be the next one, let's hope Kersey take that stupid bounty hunter and take us out of here, because the guards around here are speciesist and my lawyer don't take the phone, somehow I think he is in a island and forgot about me... What about you two, any luck to get out?" Asked Kichi
Return with Bugzee
"Ahh, the air of the sea, is not good Crimson?" Aqua ask looking to Bugzee that seemed more green that usual
"Crimson? Are you okay?" Ask Aqua
Bugzee meanwhile did not feel that good, as he did have money, he tried to take a luxury and try the fish special, a special that somehow did not seem to agree with his belly as he could feel he was going to puke soon or later, as his belly grumbled again, he feel that it was not going to come all out from where did it come, but also from the emergency exit, and tried to find a toilet.
Meanwhile Nightshade that was out also did not feel good, somehow she feel that the sea was not going to be her element, as the voice of her mother sounded in her head.
"Bah, We represent the earth ponies, the unicorns and the pegasus, if our creator wanted us in the sea she could give us a tail or maybe some gills... That why we leave it to the sea ponies, they can take care of the sea, and if there is a problem, Neptune and Undine usually go whining to us about how our ponies send trash to the sea, or how the global warming is destroying things, bah, stupid things, also it's too cold, too ironic that our moon control the tides but we don't like water, except in a good bath." Groaned Selena as he then begin to talk about that.
Nightshade was not sure about what to think, as she heared the voice of her mother in her head.
"Ummm... Why are you in my head and not in daddy?" Asked Nightshade
"Let's say that even I, have things that I don't like to watch, and your dad is busy doing something" Answered Selena
Meanwhile Aqua seemed to be in her own element, maybe because she liked to use the water element and around it was the perfect way to use it.
------
About the question... No answer, I don't go to theme parks... Why? When my house have everything I could need.
Bugze immediately trips and crashes into a cart full of cabbages. After he gets up Nightshade then jumps out of the inventory and yells "DIE VEGETABLES" and sets the cart on fire.
7323256 "I am planning to get out of here, yes," Sol replies, pawsteps resounding for quite a while now, "However, I believe we might gain a tactical advantage from waiting."
If one could see into his energy-proof cell, they didn't spare expenses to make sure he didn't just ghost through the wall since he is made of energy, one would see him running around the walls time and time again, "After all, we recently came in here, they will expect us to try something. Aslong as the guards watch for that kind of thing, it would be stupid and useless to try."
Trixie secretly sneaks around, monitoring the group's progress.
7323256
7324913
From a cell nearby Solarkness...
Rutherford: I agree with Sol here. If we stay we will not draw anymore attention. Besides I have a plan for, if not getting us out early and our cases dropped completely, at least getting the sentence reduced. For now, though, relax, behave, and try not to get anymore heat on us. We will likely be getting more friends brought in here soon as it is. Also Kichi, if your lawyer does not get back to you, then I will act as your lawyer. I have been around long enough to know most of Equestria's laws and I planned on trying to represent those of us without lawyers anyway. On an unrelated note, can you help me and Sol settle a bet? Can changelings eat meat?
7325846 Sol snickers, "Can Windigos eat love? Actually, that is a good question...," he stops running around, "Huh. Well, atleast Flour is in a cell closer to the exit, I guess, and... Do you think they got Tantabus?"
----
Which answer did I bet on again?
7325863
Rutherford: "Well, Tanta did appear in your dream before working for you right? considering she is not of the waking world, she may be able to communicate with us in our dreams. We can use that to our advantage to warn the others...or to irritate our enemies. I can think of a few guards that could do to lose a few hours of sleep a week. That said. I think we should continue that conversation later. I can hear the guards approaching. Maybe they brought us some actual food that we can eat." Even if I can't eat gems like my dragon relatives, I think I will be able to imbue them with some of my magic. I might be able to use those later.
Since I forgot to answer the question, I think the funniest thing I saw at an amusement park is seeing people start to look a thrill ride (roller coasters and the like) and noping out. I have seriously seen someone get to the front of the line and say "Nope." and leave the line that took 15 minuets to get to the front.
7325863
Kichi begin to think a couple of second, recalling the information in his brain, as he put the hoof under his mouth to think a little, until he got more or less how to answer the question for non-changeling beings.
"Food is like a temporary substitute for love. It'll work for awhile, but eventually if a changeling doesn't get any love...well lets just say the results aren't pretty. If we could not eat, it could be strange if we replace someone for weeks that we don't eat. Exist rumor of exceptions, between them is the Hooded Offender, but those are mostly rumors. The only problem is that the size of the food around here is not very big, and they don't offer too much love, if at last we were not here in those individual cells, maybe I could get a little of love, but the ponies have created those cells to make sure that I can't sense anything outside, nor I could get love, and the worst is the stupid ring in my horn that is not letting me to change, change is in our names, is like a dragon that is forced to not throw fire or a unicorn that can't do magic" Groaned Kichi as he was feeling a little angry, as he begin to breath in and breath out to calm himself.
"About the suggestion of a lawyer, if they give us the choice, I give you the chance" Commented with a smile Kichi
It was then that he heared Rutherford comment about the guards and decided to wait for the next time and decided to sleep to maintain his energy, it was the little he could do in that cell, sleep or talk.

7326330 Sol grins, before resuming running at double the speed. It sounds almost as if he is... excited, "Okay," he brought out, before shutting his mouth so as to not give away they could talk with eachother.
Get distracted by a poster for the Sapphire Shores concert in Vanhoover. Aqua and Selena chide you for getting distracted, but Nightshade snaps you out of it when you hear her squee over the colt band (Da Coltz From Yo Cul-de-sac) opening for the Pony of Pop.
It appears Nightshade has discovered the opposite sex.
*snap* Urge to kill, rising.
Yes... You should burn those pretty colts, show the world your-
Selena!
I'm on it. (Violently stuffs a sober Sombra back into his mental cage)
=======================
From what you gathered from Rutherford & Solarkness, Kersey uses a complex network to launder and keep track of the Crimson Knights fiances. They've only seen a messenger 3 times, but even though all three messengers were all different colors, clothes, and even species there was something oddly familiar about them and they were identified by a blue-and-white-polka-dot lollipop.
Hmmm... Possible changeling? Selena muses.
Maybe. Still, I wonder what those Crimson morons are up to right now?
MEANWHILE IN AN UNKNOWN PRISON
As Rutherford & Solarkness are being lead to their cells, they smugly believe that Kersey will eventually get some fancy high-end ambulance-chaser to bail them out... only to be placed in the same cell as Kichi who asks "When the buck is Kersey gonna come through with that lawyer?"
==================
Stop by a pharmacist and spend quite a bit of Bits on more drug syringes to keep Sombra loopy and sedated.
==================
Stop by the biggest candy store in Vanhoover and ask about blue-and-white-polka-dot lollipops. Fortunately for you, that is the uncommon "Blueberry Pie a la mode" flavor that has to be asked for behind the counter. With some persuasion of a few Bits, the candystore owner tells you that somepony bought another one of those lollipops this morning while humming "I Would Never Lie to You" (the hit single of Da Colts From Yo Cul-de-sac).
Aqua brings up the possibility of Kersey's messenger going to the concert which causes Nightshade to squeal like a fanfilly.
*snap* Actually, maybe he is a changeling AND one of the members of the group. Hay, maybe all 5 are changelings you think crazily, Oh well, better roast all 5 of their faces just to be sur-
Bugze, cease jumping to self-serving conclusions. Selena says flatly.
Speaking of which, buy some of those lollipops for Nightshade.

Blueblood mutters something about how "Once that guard I gave my patronage to finally gets in one of Autnie's Celestia's war machines, that Hooded Offender will be nothing but a red stain..."
In honor of "Ask King Sombra" many artists in Tumblr are putting a column in honor of him

As Bugzee recover, he can see in the horizon a very big light, that seems to come from the crystal empire, but at the same time is not from the crystal empire
"Whoa, what is that?" Ask Bugzee
"I sensed dimensional magic... Somehow that light crossed many dimensions, even our dimension and other dimensions" Say Selena to Bugzee
"Wait... Are you telling that light come from another dimension? I wonder if the doctor knows anything" Mutter Bugzee
You unknowingly walk past somepony.
The same blue pony with the black vest jacket also didn't realize that he passed the Crimson Vengeance. He was currently eating chocolate chip cookies out of a blue box rapidly.
"I can't believe..." Changer popped another chocolate chip cookie into his mouth. "That bastard bounty hunter beat me to Solarkness and Rutherford." He said to himself with his mouth full of cookie, swallowing soon after. "Not this time. I will destroy Kersey, and after I deal with the others I'll go to the Royal Guard jail and deal with Kichi and the other two." His eyes glowed bright blue when he said 'destroy'. He stopped walking and looked around. "Where's that fat idiot hiding out again?"
You and Aqua search the place for any clues, when you bump into a very particular pony.
"Prince Blueblood?!" Your eyes immediately glow orange with rage.
"Yes, it is I. Prince Blueblood, on vacation. What's it to you."
"Oh, nothing much!" You snark. Why did he have to be here?!
I am as much rage too you know! The last time he met our daughter was the time I decided that I wanted to rip his guts out!
We have a mutual feeling.
You walk and try to ignore Blue Blood's rant of bumping into him, trying not to start another Gala incident. This is when Aqua came up beside you.
"You know... I did see on the papers that Blue Blood was a big part of the Gala being wrecked. What was up with that anyways?"
Selena chuckles nervously as you say, "Memories... really bad memories... let's try not to see him again." You immediately regret saying 'try' and 'not see' in the same sentence referring to Blue Blood.
“Ok, so really, all we have to do is find the Knight messenger and overspend and force this guy to make a move in the open, and then we’ll find him…or at least that’s what the Timber Wolf and Wyvern said.”
“This guy is that much of a recluse?” asks Aqua.
“Well they didn’t use that word, but they said that I’d know him when I see him because of all the rolls…whatever that means.”
“Find the messenger…so we just gotta search this whole city?”
“Not exactly, they gave me vague hints of where to look. Stupid Knights, I guess even if they hate this guy they still have to make my life difficult.”
"Well we did beat and ruin all of their goals, Spite isn't enough to make them spill everything."
"I guess not...still, I hope Armor gives them what's for."
"Well we live in a Diarchrastic Kingdom where enemies of the crown can be locked up and have the key thrown away without trial, so I would say so."
You gulp at this since you've nearly had that fate and worse the last three years.
“Speaking of these Knights, do you get the feeling that something’s off about them?” Aqua asks.
“Like what?” you ask.
“Well when I picture “Terrorist” these guys are not the traditional definition.”
“Well just because they don’t look it, doesn’t mean they aren’t. These guys seem to be long term picture kind of guys. Just look at the paper, they’re still taking credit for some messed up stuff…on top of all the weird things they do.”
“Or both I guess…” Aqua says while looking at the paper.
Stocks Plummet to Record Low After Crimson Knight Attack
The article details how the ventilation system on Wall Street was flooded with Hallucinogenics causing everyone to trip and cause a riot. This led to many stocks plummeting, and several businesses going bankrupt. The Symbol of the Crimson Knights was spray painted on the wall outside the building.
“Guess they all act innocent and naive, and then wham, they go and do something like this. Masters of Deception the whole lot of them," Aqua mutters.
Yesterday
The Brown Dog finishes spraying the symbol on the side of the building while chaos and drugged laughing can be heard.
“And that takes care of that, let’s get lunch.”
“Yeah let’s, this is the most work we’ve done since…well Beigh I guess,” Snap Drake agrees.
“Well that was a difference, we WANTED to try and kill Beigh...even if we failed spectacularly...twice. But anyway, this though was what Management wanted,” Brown Dog huffs as he throws the paint can away.
“Ugh, management. We don’t hear from them for days on end, and when we do it’s, cut power to this residential neighborhood, frame nobles for scandals, spike the water supply with Viagra, and now crash the stock market, I mean, what’s the point of all that?” whines Snap Drake.
“Well it’s not just us, everyone gets Management's orders once in a while. As much as I hate actual work it is an even balance for us being able to do our own thing.”
“Yeah I guess, just wish it made more sense, I mean one day it’s destruction, the other day it’s weird…”
“Buddy, in life there are very few bucks you should give, this…is not one of them. Really we should still be celebrating that we got Transformares 5 Cancelled,” rejoices the Brown Dog.
“Yeah, and also inadvertently caused the destruction of most of Applewood’s Studios.”
“That too. I bet you anything Solarkness used the destruction in his movie somehow.”
“I wouldn’t put it past him. Do you think they’ll let us all know when it’s coming out?”
“I hope so. I mean, we may not be chummy chummy with him and Rutherford, but we at least aren’t Kersey levels of annoyances to them.”
“Good point, which reminds me, you should probably send in a letter asking for payment. We did do a management job so we’ll get a bonus,” remarks the pony.
“Oh Heck Yeah!” whoops the Diamond Dog.
"And we'll be able to keep all of it since we don't have our underlings anymore," Snap adds.
"WE HAD UNDERLINGS?!"
"Yes, the ones we gave to Grey Rebl awhile ago since we never used them?"
"Huh, guess they weren't noticeable. Except for Silver. When the heck is Kichi going to send him back? I miss the little Bug," bemoans the Dog.
"My bet is he won't. What with Kichi's Love source...that's still kind of weird in my opinion."
"Yeah...if he ever pisses us off we could call Chris Hayson on him, heh heh heh," the brown dog chuckles evily.
Snap Drake smiles and says, "I'll add that to the list. Now let's get some lunch."

And the funniest thing I ever saw at a theme park was when I was 6 at Six Flags. My older cousin wasn't tall enough to go on the rides, and I was, and he got mad and punched a guy in a Tasmanian Devil suit in the nose
It pains me to say this, I've really enjoyed Bugsy's adventures. But this is just too meme heavy for me at this point. I've lost any desire to read further.
Gentlemen, This is where I get off. *Holds nose and promptly jumps off the plank*
