The assistance came hastily towards him and gave him a confused glance. Surely she had done everything he asked? Cleaned the house, sorted piles of papers and babysitting/tormenting Diamond Tiara. All that, before breakfast. What could possible had made him this upset..?

"What is this?" he asked affronted and pointed a hoof towards a thin newspaper. "I thought I had a monopoly on all the media in Ponyville. How could something like this exist?"

"Well it seems... somepony has started an individual newspaper called "The Truthseeker" and writes about themes your newspaper never would write. Mostly criticizing the elites in general and - oh my."

"Well, Zecora, the zebra behind this newspaper is also slaughtering your reputation."

"No she comes fr- Wait, what does that have to do with anything?" Roseluck gave a doubtful peek towards Filthy Rich.

"Okaaay... Anyways, she does have a valid point so you better hope this doesn't escalate.

"Hahaha.... A zebra being able to influence my life? How absurd!" Filthy Rich laughed mockingly.

"♪Lalala... I'm sooooo rich
I can do whatever I waaaaaant
Almost killed everypony and called Twilight a witch
Before she was sent to prison I gave her a taaaaauuuuunt
Now it's time to take down another bitch
Outside my window ponies are in protest
It must have been Zecora that snitch
It seems they want me to confess
Jokes on them, they will soon - ♪
...
Wait what now?!?!?!

Outside his mansion was there tens of protesters, who angrily waved their hooves and signs. Quite threatening, especially when considering how few who actually lives in Ponyville. Over ten ponies during one assemble, is HUGE. Anyways, Filthy Rich opened the door and saw before him two mares.

"Well...Well...Well... I guess revenge is the best medicine" Twilight Sparkle spoke slowly as she smirked evil toward the stallion.

"Twilight my friend, he shall taste the bitter end.
His greedy ways are bad, making me almost mad!" Zecora uttered mystically.

Twilight! So you have already served those five days in prison huh? Well, that's what happens if you can't afford a decent lawyer. I mean, a friendship speech won't help you then... Only bits, always the bits... Anyways, does that "thing" always talk like that? Seems pretty, unnecessary." Filthy Rich asked the assembles before him.

Roseluck who was behind Filthy Rich face hoofed while the protester looked shocked towards the ignorant stallion.

"What? Instead of mumbo-jumbo talk why doesn't she speak more civilized. Stupid zebra..."

The protesters who first was like: O_o transformed quickly into: -_- while Zecora was speechless for several seconds.

"Let's go everypony, if not a protest will affect him then maybe a report to Princess Celestia will. Yes, you heard me Filthy Rich. Tomorrorow we will reveal everything you have done so far to everypony in Ponyville and the princess. Hopefully you will like the moon..." Twilight ended the sentence with a little laugh.

"I was hoping you were a reasonable stallion
Instead, you were shooting hurtful words like a battalion
Ignorance is a dangerous curse
However, tomorrow your life will be much more worse!"

The angry protesters left after these wise words in order to plan, prepare for the next day. Filthy Rich shut the door and met Roseluck in the living room, who was in a state where she didn't know if she wanted to laugh or cry.

"Sit down and let me explain a few things to you..." She answered with a deep sigh while pointing towards the red oversized sofa.

They sat down in the room which honored the older family members by having enormous paintings of them. Until Roseluck noticed, how everypony of them were actually different paintings of Filthy Rich, in different settings, age and even gender. Of course, the middle of the room had to have a golden sculpture of him standing with one of his hooves on the earth while holding a sack of bits in his other hoof.

"As I mentioned yesterday you shouldn't take lightly to such a revolting newspaper since Zecora does have a good point. You own almost everything in Ponyville, pay way too little to your workers and constantly bring greedy chaos towards everypony. If it's true what they are going to do tomorrow, then I'm afraid you actually are going to end up on the moon..." Roseluck ended the sentence with a smile.

"Nothing will happen tomorrow... I have a plan..." he whispered excited towards Roseluck whose smile suddenly died. "You will see..."

"Okay let us say you have a brilliant plan let me still ask you this question: Are you a racist towards zebras?"

"What? Nooooooooo..... I'm not a racist. It's bad to be a racist. You're bad who even brought up this question. Why are you hating on my black side? Why so much hate..? Filthy Rich's talked as if Roseluck's question had truly hurt him.

"Yeah right, you know what I mean." her sharper voice pinpointed through his act.

"Almost EVERYPONY IS COLORED! By Celestia stop bringing up the racist card all the time, we both know you are full of bullshit!"

Thus, was another evening destroyed by Filthy Rich's childish plays at the expense of others. Anyhow, he would soon learn, the hard way, that the same may very well happen to him.

The golden star blazed through the thin clouds while blessing Ponyville with another magnificent day. This grande day would be unusual, everypony waited excited in front of the mayor's soapbox. On Zecora, the being who today would reveal all the sinister things which happened on a daily basis behind the ponies backs. Her voice clang through the ponies ears, minds, while it slowly sank within them. The cold hard truth most wanted to deny, couldn't today be ignored, especially when somepony like Twilight, approved of it as well. When the speech, pictures, evidence on evidence was showed to every living being in that area came to an end, a sudden silence occurred. A wave of applause's and positive shouting filled the air with joy. Celestia then stood up on the scene, with a low serious voice called she Filthy Rich up, on the stage.

I knew it, it's over for him and finally can I move on with my life... Roseluck squinted of the wonderful thought of it.

"Meet me at the castle after this... We will "discuss" more about this later." She blinked towards him while suddenly flew away from the stage, from everypony.

The joy slowly died away while everypony confused looked towards each other and eventually went home to themselves. Zecora herself eventually slowly walked towards her house, disappointed over the outcome after hours of preparations. Twilight Sparkle sat alone on the ground, almost ready to cry by the unexpected result.

"Twilight Sparkle..." His soft voice called while a white towel was given to her.

"Bits are the ultimate weapon in this world. With bits you can control, create, destroy and corrupt anything and everything. It was created in order to suppress what somepony calls the masses, what truly is everypony except a few. Nevertheless, this case was even more corrupted. Not by money but something else."

"Sex. The second ultimate weapon in this world, something especially Celestia approves. Another tool, in order to dumb down a society."

"Oh nothing special. I thought maybe you needed it after getting ROYALLY BEATEN BY THE BOSS AND YOUR BELOVED PRINCESS! OWNED, I - CUT - MYSELF - BECAUSE - NOPONY - UNDERSTANDS - ME - SPARKLE!" Filthy Rich expressed his amusement loudly while making his leave.

"And I will spend a night in the royal bed, couldn't get much better! If it wasn't for her weird and slightly sick fetishes..."

Thus, I had wrong when I said Filthy Rich would learn his lesson the hard way, or did I? Let us say it like this: He almost slapped Diamond Tiara the next morning, when she told him a funny joke about what a unicorn's horn can be used to, when it comes to other than magic...
