Return of the Mysterious Mare-Do-Well

Interlude 2-3

Powerhouse had had a long day, the kind of day that sapped your strength and left you weak and weary. The hard work he had put in was impressive, even for him with his gauntlets of power and serum in his blood. Terrorizing the sprawling metropolis of Manehatten while avoiding capture? Difficult. Fortunately, he wasn't only a savage brute. He'd had to come up with his own strategies.

Taking a long moment to rest on a rooftop, he surveyed the cityscape. He wondered what he was supposed to do next. There had to be more to his role in the plan than simply attacking the upper (and more populated) half of Manehatten. Powerhouse frowned, and then his face lit up.

Why hadn't he thought of it before? All he had to do was ask the boss! It was so simple. Feeling fully recharged, Powerhouse stretched out his hooves and kicked a few times. The gauntlets sparked with raw power, and he grinned before jumping once more, soaring into the sky before shooting back down to crush the pavement underhoof.

Powerhouse was going to find his boss.
