Back with Sunset Ch 1

Sunset is sitting in her bar the Amber Pub. Then suddenly the door opens. As two men in suits walk in.

“So the spooks are finally here to get me?” Sunset asks from behind the counter.

“Not answering Huh? So who are you? Immigration? CIA? Or maybe the office of naval intelligence.” Sunset says

“Why would ONI be needed here?” The man asks

“Wow… my name is literally sunset and none of you put it together? Truthfully I have a slight grudge since y’all never commissioned me. I mean if I came back with my British name maybe I would have a rigging and do more than walk on water.” Sunset says

“… she’s a bucking ship girl!” One of the men shouts to the other.

“When we get back I’ll be having words with our supervisor. Words I tell you.” Says the second one.

“Wait… you're telling me you had no clue! You’ve got to be kidding me!” Sunset shouts in outrage.

“We wanted to ask you about the USS Taylor actually…” says man number 1

“You mean other than her grudge against the Italians? Well according to her she was modernized in the late 90s.” Sunset says

“What no the Italians scrapped her.” Says guy 2

“Trust me most of us have a little bit of a grudge. Oh, the pre-dreadnought battleships who knows how they feel.” Sunset says

“None of the ones brought back have a grudge as you say.”

“I do. Because you never bothered to commission me I don’t have my rigging like the others do.”
Sunset says

“Right, well just could you not leave the state? We need to kick this up the chain of command.” Says the smart one.

“Yeah, sure whatever have fun.” Sunset says sitting down behind her bar.

The two walk out of the bar and as the door closes.

“That went horribly wrong.” Says agent 1

“Good job deflecting that, though her answer has me worried.” Agent 2 says

“Right where to next?” Asks agent 1

============
Later at Sweet Apple acres

“Ma’am please we just need to talk to Applejack.” Says agent 1

“No see here, I said go get your warrant and come back.” Granny Smith says

“Ma’am we insist it’s for her safety.” Agent 2 says

“Now A’h ain’t havin none of that ya hear! Now git!” Granny Smith shouts in the stereotypical fashion while waving her cane. The door to the house suddenly slams.

“Macintosh grab the double barrel! Those government spooks are here! Trespassin on our property!” Is shouted from inside the house.

The two agents ran.
==================
Later at Rainbow Dashes house.

“I’m sorry, but unless you are going to have me as a carrier pilot in the blue angel's performance squadron you can pound sand.” Rainbow Dash says

“Miss, someone of your importance is too valuable for that kind of duty.” Agent 1 says

“Yeah, no. I’m a few weeks away from my pilot's license and I have thousands of hours in a simulator. I even bought a VR headset for it, so unless you can guarantee a return on that investment. I’ll take my chances going in as an officer after college.” Rainbow Dash says closing her door.

“Well, her grandfather is retired navy. Maybe he can talk to her?” Agent 2 says

“No passed away 2 years ago.” Agent 1 says

Agent 2 shuffled the files a little before stopping.

“Her grandmother was a nurse aboard USS Haven in the Korean War. She’s in another state however that might do the job.” Agent 2 says

“That’s a good catch.” Agent 1 says in surprise.
============
Over at the Cakes.

“Hello!” Pinkie answers the door cheerily.

“Hello, miss Pie. We understand you are from Florida staying with your family while living here. We were hoping to talk to you about the rainbooms and getting you all to join up and do repeat performances.” Agent 1 says

“Can I bring my party gun?” Pinkie asks her eyes nearly sparkling.

“Party gun?” Agent 2 asks

“Yes! Everyone from Florida has a party gun! I have my bed gun, my car gun, my house gun, and most importantly my party gun. The second most important is the backup party gun!” Pinkie says happily

“How big is this party gun?” Agent 1 asks the conversation having fully derailed.

“It’s an old surplus M198 howsawatsit! Here take a look!” Pinkie says pulling the artillery cannon from seemingly out of nowhere.

“Say, smith… I don’t think they are paying us enough for this.” Agent 2 says

“It shoots a cookie dough and confetti round using a large blank fire shell!” Pinkie says happily

“I think I agree….” Smith replies

“So your car gun?” Agent two asks motioning for Smith to call it in.

“Well you see Jones, she is from Florida.” Smith says

“I don’t see how that matters.” Jones says

The two tried their hardest to ignore the rambling pinkette. It’s getting harder and harder though as she continues the story.

“I’m from Georgia, so I’m just gonna say you’ll have to get used to it… here watch. Miss Pie how many locks can you pick?” Smith asks

“All of them of course! Though the magnetic ones are a bit tricky but it can be done with enough time and effort! It’s my next favorite skill next to disappearing into a crowd with ease.” Pinkie says

Smith does a see what I mean gesture. While Jones is clawing his face with a sigh.

=============
“Right, who’s next Fluttershy?” Smith asks

“I would like to however her dad is Ex-Air Force I’m having a friend talk to him.” Jones says

“So that leaves Rarity…” Smith says looking over the file.

“Yep.” Jones says

“Well shoot.” Smith says

“What?” Jones asks

“Rarity’s parents… one is Magnum Belle. KIA in Afghanistan, while the other… well she didn’t want to live without her husband.” Smith says sadly

“You are telling me, that child protective services did nothing?” Jones asks incredulously.

“Yes? Though in truth Cookie Belle’s cause of death is honestly suspicious. There was no autopsy yet there is the paperwork which says there was from another state.” Smith says reading over the file.

The car horn honks as Jones smashes his head into the wheel.

“Why can’t anything go right.” Jones laments

“It gets worse, after she died their family business seems to have been bought out from under them by someone named Filthy Rich.” Smith says

“We are not cleared to investigate this, however, call the FBI it seems to have crossed state lines meaning they can get involved.” Jones says as he turns the car around.

“So, not going to see her today?” Smith asks

“No, we are going to go shake down the local police department.” Jones says

Author's Note:

Something in the back of my mind made me write this. It was either I write this or make it it’s own book and I don’t have the time for that.

Since it takes place in the real world. I kinda had to make some stuff a bit darker.
