//------------------------------// // A very abrupt escape! // Story: My Little Pony: Payday is Magic // by Twisted Gears //------------------------------// "...You sure that it'll work?" Asked Bain's voice through the radio channel. "Well, if you have anything better..." Replied Wolf while they were walking outside, and reloading his Betsy. "Well then, just keep them away from the Mirror. Twitch and Bile should do the rest. Good luck!" "Allright Hox, ready?" "Tartarus yeah, let's do this!" Replied Hoxton, opening the door in one kick. Both of them jumped out, and with some suppresing fire, they met Dallas and Chains again, covering behind a set of heavy rock vessels with bushes in them. They were a perfect cover of two metres of stone, leaves and soil. "Well hello there, boss!" Exclaimed Wolf getting into cover, and reloading once more. Dallas raised his sight, and a blast of magic grazed the top of his mask, wich made him get back to cover. "What the hay were you both doing?!" Hoxton raised his hoof. "Wolf had a date with a Cloaker." He turned towards Hoxton. "Just if I had fingers..." Chains interrupted, and pointed towards the Bulldozer, the two Shields, the Tazer behind everything, and a few Royal Guards that popped out of nowhere. "Not to annoy, but we have something in our hooves!" Dallas and Wolf raised over the vessels and shooted at everypony they saw. Most of the bullets bounced back, and they got back into cover. "So, what's the plan to get the buck out of here alive?" "Bile's coming to pick the Mirror while we distract them!" Said Hoxton, popping up, unloading another magazine, and back to cover. "Once they get the mirror, they are picking us up back in the Tower!" "I love that plan!" Exclaimed out Chains, popping back from cover, pulling out his JP and Compact at the same time, and unloading again. Dallas loaded another tranquilizer dart, and popped out from the side. He aimed down, and pressed the trigger. This time, the dart passed right at the side of the Tazer, and hitted one of the Royals in the neck. He instantly felt to the ground, uncontious. The Bulldozer spotted Dallas in the side, and unloaded one single reinforced 16-Gauge on him. This was enough to penetrate the suit, and his vest. He felt how the gauges made strenght on his chest, and he was already in the ground, two feets away from where he was standing. "Holy Luna! Dallas, you allright?!" Dallas checked his chest. Indeed, his suit was now nothing but a swiss cheese, and the vest was merely a plate, and his chest was bleeding. But, he was still alive. Scared for life, but alive. He got up, and ran back into cover. "Holy, I want a shotgun like that!" "Shit Dallas, your chest doesn't look good, mate!" He dropped a small, red briefcase in the ground. He opened it, and took out a green syringe. He injected himself in the neck. "The hay is that?" Asked Hoxton, coming back to cover, after dropping another round on the Bulldozer. "Another product of our friends." He simply replied, as his chest stopped bleeding, and his coat was slowly regenerating. Even the plate of the vest was regenerating, popping out the reinforced pellets. Hoxton observed this a bit amazed. Wolf was too busy shooting, so was Chains. After two minutes of holding positions, the Bulldozer's armour was pretty scrappy, but it still held. The Shields behind decided to take positions in front of him, and the Tazer was still coming and going, trying to get a nie line of one of the criminals. There were two uncontious Royal Guards laying around, as they recieved a clear shot from Dallas. There is one thing that had worried Wolf. The Cloaker couldn't be seen, and she was not emmiting the Static from her batton. This only means two things: Or she left the area, or she turned it off, and is waiting for a good opportunity. ...Anyways, after the battle got a bit calm, since the Criminals managed to push the Royals away from the Mirror, the crew recieved a message. "Guys, We're coming! Get the coast clear!" Said Bile's voice through the radio. "Finally!" Explaimed Wolf, bandaging himself. No sound was made, and two metallic ropes got attached to the sides of the two-floor golden mirror. However... It was not moving. "Uh... Bile?" Asked Hoxton trough the radio. "That thing weights too much for the Zeppelin! There's no way I'm bringing that with me!" Replied Bile, as the ropes detached from the Mirror. "Bull... Then, what the hay we do now?! Bain!!" "I wanted to do this in a safe area, but screw the plan... Get in the mirror!" Replied Bain's voice, with a lot of preocupation in his voice. "What do you mean with that?" Asked Dallas, interrupting in the transmission. "What I said! Jump in the mirror! Do it quick, a large mob of Royals is heading back to the castle!!" Shouted Bain. "They have y'all surrounded!" The whole group looked at eachother. "Fine!" Suddently said Wolf. "You can't be serious, right?" Asked Chains, taking out a missing pellet from his mask. "Well, I see no other way out. Jeronimoooo!" Wolf jumped towards the Mirror. He bumped on its surface, and slammed the ground, with his face. Dallas and Hoxton facepalmed. Chains looked at the sky, and prayed for their souls. Wolf got up. "Um, Bain...?" "The other side, my dear Wolfie..." "Oh... Eh... Okay..." Muttered Wolf, walking to the other face of the Mirror. He moved his hoof in the surface, to check if it was solid like the other one, and... His hoof went throught it. It was like placing your hoof in flat water. "Hey, this is quite fun." "Shut up, and get in!" Shouted out Hoxton, pushing Wolf inside the Mirror. He grabbed Dallas from the neck, and pulled him inside too. Only Chains was left behind. "Ah, Tartarus. Screw this..." He walked away from the Mirror, and ran towards it, made a cannonball in the air, and crossed the Mirror. Once they all crossed, the face of the mirror turned from black to gold again. It was closed, once the whole group closed... ...Meanwhile. Somewhere in Manehattan... "Good, they made it trough... Did you recieved them?" A weak voice crossed a small Tear between dimensions, controlled by a quartz-based device. "Depends. they appeared in our dimension, however... They appeared somewhere else." The large, black office chair turned towards the Tear, away from a large set of monitors, showing the maps of Equestria, and a large network of cameras. "What do you mean with that, Bain?" "I have their signals, and, well... We will have to guide them out of that... Highschool, Bain."
