Blue Harmony yawned, he was still at the train station and only saw a few ponies in fancy suits and dress getting ready, obviously from the Gala .
He used his magic to encase his pocket watch in a blue aura, opened it a few inches from is face
1:50 Luna Clock Time
He heard a whistle from the train indicating 10 more minutes to pack.He used his magic to put the pocket watch back in place and looked out into the dark streets, just the occasional well-dressed ponies that may have had one too many or they were just sleepy. Or both
He then saw a small white dot approaching , fast too, he saw another dot but couldn't make out the color but the other dot was catching up, He lit up his horn and in preparations for levitation to take out White Star.
"Dang it Vinyl stop running so fast!" A Brown pony said
"The trains about to leave! it would be good if one of us got there instead of none, also your rich, you could buy a zeppelin and go home" A white pony said
Blue Harmony stopped his spell and let the two mares go past him.He heard them pay their tickets and walk onto the train.
"Hello Sir, Are you coming onto the train?" The train conductor said
"Oh no, i'm waiting for someone here..." Blue Harmony responded ,
"Alright, Have a nice night" He replied
"You two...."
A few seconds later a horn let out a scream and all the ponies on the deck quickly got on, the train left the station, Blue Harmony was relieved, at least WhiteStar couldn't return home if he got past Him.
Wait what IF he did get past? It's not that hard to jump the railings and walk along the rock points to the other side of the train station
No.... WhiteStar Never saw him right? He remembered when they chased him in the streets, He could have seen him and take a different path...
A gust of wind came over Blue Harmony, this was different winds that seemed to hit the high city, this one felt....wrong it didn't feel like the normal humid air this one was cold, freezing almost as if it was ice, he quickly left the feeling as a hotter air came quickly and brought him back to reality.
Then he heard stone hoofsteps, he looked at the three main roads and all of them seem to have the same noise from each way, he looked again at the center and saw a figure running to him, his horn started to glow like a beacon and began a spell,
His hunch was right, the pony that now stood only a few feet away from him, shocked, was WhiteStar he shot sparks of magic at his Hoof's and bonded WhiteStar to the perfectly carved stone
Thousands of saying flushed through his heads, comedic one-liners and degrading insults,
Finally he spoke
"You are under arrest for the crimes against her majesty and the people of Equstria, you punishment will not be made by me but it will be severe" he looked at WhiteStar, his face looking down "What do you have to say"
WhitesStar just continued staring at the ground,not even attempting to break free of the magical grasp that encased him
"I said, What do you have to say?" Blue Harmony said, this time in a much more commanding tone and started to close the space between him and WhiteStar
Nothing changed about WhiteStars
"Fine be that way, we will wait here for my partner and we will escort you to the Royal Guards" He plopped down and focused on the thief
Time seemed to slow down for Blue Harmony, his vision blurred and he started to fall down, but to him it instead of a few seconds of falling down and a small thud it felt like decades turning into centuries and when he finally hit the ground it was as if his body was being crushed by a boulder,
He blacked out and his spell wore off of WhiteStar, The voices in his head helped him once again, Now WhiteStar just looked at the unconscious body of the unicorn.
He left the body for his partner to come, he looked at the empty train station and a train that he was just late for.
Now he has to find a new way of exiting a city.
he remembered the Ariel Harbor had ships, Or a way of getting out of the city without going through a bunch of checkpoints like the train station will have.
he started making his way up the stair case to the Harbor, it wasn't long as his thought seemed to have passed the time, His normal thoughts of piecing old history together were replaced by the consequences of his actions and worries of what his family or friends will think if or when he is convicted
No it's not going to happen, he planned this to much to let it fail, he WILL leave the city, and he WILL not be caught, he told himself this a thousand times but his doubt always sneaks in.
He came at the entrance to the Ariel Harbor, a bunch of landing pad and a few rich company building like MicroNoft and Bapples populated most of the buildings, giving them a much faster transport of goods than carriage or train, it also allowed shipments to places where land transport wouldn't or couldn't go
the Ariel Harbor was pretty much deserted, except for a few pegesai doing some last minuet placements and storage movement, He looked around and saw only a air boat (Zeppelin?). it had a few crates left on it and was different than than the royal ones in a number of ways
It didn't have the purple balloon instead it was a sky-blue with big black MICRONOFT Written on both sides, the mast of the zeppelin(Air Boat?) was made out of strong oak wood with metal covering the sides, front and back to protect from accidental hits with mountains or other things, other than those changes it was like a regular Royal Air Boat(Zeppelin?)
he made his way to the floating Zeppelin, trying to act confident, it worked as he planned none of the pegesai paid any attention to him, they just thought he was another worker
As he got into the Zeppelin(Air Boat?) and went to the steering wheel, he never really knew how to drive one, the only time he did was when he was a colt and it was only for 4 seconds before he was pushed aside, looking back on that moment it was really stupid of him to do that...
It's not like he need to know, the instructions were behind the steering wheel of the ship, he started pushing levers and pressing buttons and the ship finally was released from the grasp of the dock,it started to move toward ponyville, well slowly but faster than by walking
A nap would help, if the pegesai did nothing while he was leaving the dock then they would be doing nothing while he left the city limits
4 Luna Clock Time, Royal Castle, Celestia's Room
Red Shift stood with his wobbly partner in front of the Princess again, they were reviewing the reports they both told,, although most of it was being disregarded as one was unconscious for most of the time
They stopped talking to each other in old Pony Latin so that the FBAA Agents couldn't prepare for what they were going to say
"You have failed us" Celestia said with a sigh and closed her eyes "This would means severe punishment for you both"
Luna took over "But as FBAA Agents you operate outside the Royal Guard, and our jurisdiction as commanders of the Royal Guard"
Celestia took over again, this time with less feeling in her voice "But not outside of our jurisdiction as rulers of Equstria, we are giving you one last chance, Fail us and nobody will know of this operation or you, Everything you did or who you were"
She stopped and sighed again, she looked back up to the agents who were shacking, Red Shift more than his disoriented partner
"But succeeds and we will make sure everyone knows of your victory and triumph over this terrorist" Luna completed, through the entire order she looked at both agents in the eye
"Y-Yes Princesses, we won't let this happen again" Red Shift bowed
"Blue Harmony will stay with us during the remainder of this mission unless we believe he is in perfect mental and physical shape to go against him,"
"I have a question......If i may ask" Red Shift said
"You may ask" Luna Said
"Do most of the Royal Guard know about this mission? only commander HawkWing seemed to care about our involvement, Do they know about FBAA In general?, and Parliament, it seemed only a few of them seem to know some of the mission we should tell Par-
"There are things i do not tell the Parliament, There are things i do not tell about the Royal Guard, This mission is more important that all of that, i would send everything i have at the thief if i could but then ponies would question the use of such a aggressive force over one thing, you are different you are outside of Royal Guards touch, they are only looking for a white pony that is unarmed and is unwilling to fight, you are looking WhiteStar who is armed and is willing to fight"
"I.....I understand..." He said with uncertainty
"Good, we believe he went off in a stolen MicroNoft ship, he is heading to PonyVille, you will meet him when he gets to the dock" Celestia said, her horn started to grow We will send you in a special kind of teleportation spell and you will arrive at the ship when he hits the dock of Ponyville, Sleep while you are traveling, we need you to be your best"
"Wait, why can't you go and do this? You are alicorns, You can easily overpower him with your magic!" He said,
"We have matters to attend to, if we escape these matters people will question and look into this mission, we can't have that, that is why we are sending you none of the papers know you or the FBAA"
"Oh.....alright i won't fail you this time" Red Shift said, finishing his bow and looking up at Celestia
"Here is a special pass, show this to the local guards who give you any trouble in investigating the thief" Luna said, making her horn glow and levitating a small specially marked badge made of metal with the imprint of FBAA with a coat of arms
"Thank you" He said bowing again
Both of the princess horns glowed in their respective aura then a small orb of yellow and blue magic floated above, being linked to both of their horns, the orb got bigger and then started to move to Red Shift, he appeared in a white room, the only things that weren't white were a big red clock that showed the hour,minute, and second, it moved slower than his watch
the other thing was a small frame that got bigger, he couldn't tell what it was but it probably the Zeppelin.
He fell down and closed his eyes, the princess were right a bit of sleep could help him.
Meanwhile back at the castle Blue Harmony Was in the bed, Luna had healed him the best she could.
Afterwards she went to the throne room to take over for the night
Not many ponies come for assistance during the night, most of them were still scared that she would turn back into Nightmare Moon and would wait until the day
she waited at the throne, the occasional Lunar Guard would come and bring her something, a glass of water or a loaf of bread most of the time.
after a while a escort of guards came though the door, this time bearing not bearing gifts, she soon found out they were guarding one of the commanders
"Princess my guards tell me you have deployed the FBAA Agents to the thief and not us, Why is that?" Commander HawkWing said
"That is sensitive information that will be released after the FBAA Agents are done with the mission" Luna said, Not even reacting to the loud and obnoxious Commander
"Sensitive? Most of the Royal Guards missions are printed the day they are approved! I demand to know that is going on!" Commander HawkWing said, stomping the ground
"I cannot tell you Commander, Just get some rest and increase the guard count in the outer cities and town, the use for them in Canterlot is not needed anymore" Luna said, using her magic to levitate a scroll filled with orders and passed it to the Commander
"I will not take this mission!" Commander Hawkwing said slapping away the scroll, One of the Lunar Guards came and picked it up and handed it back to the princess of the night
"Fine, then another, Better Commander can take the honor of capturing the Criminal..." Luna said, Using her magic again to lift the scroll behind her
It took awhile for the information to register in Commander HawkWing's head and when it finally clicked his eyes light up
"Wait, I'm sorry princess i would like to take the mission" He said with a bow, something he never had done before
"No you have proven yourself Incapable for the mission, Shining Armour will take the mission, Guards take the Commander away to his house, he had far too many drinks for the night" Luna commanded as she watched the Commander
The rest of the night was quiet, The occasional guard came in to give the princess a loaf of bread or a glass of water, The sun soon took back the sky
