Prologue: From Canterlot with Bullets

View Online

The cool night time in Canterlot didn't help Celestia as she entered the building. Twelve hours prior she was planning to arrest the group known as the Cursed Six. Led by their leader Twilight Sparkle the group of Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkamena were going to face serious time in prison until Twilight agreed to help Celestia retrieve a top secret project in the Crystal Empire. Unfortunately their last transmission showed that they were incapacitated and captured by Cadence, well known for committing multiple crimes spanning from the petty to the terrorist acts, and her bodyguard Shining Armor. Sighing as she entered her office and sat at her desk Celestia tried to think of another plan to stop Cadence and retrieve the project and the six she sent.

“Sister?” Luna said as she entered her sister's office and sat across from her “Your letting this go to your head. Twilight and her band of misfits are smart enough to get out of this.” Celestia looked at her sister before grabbing a bottle tequila out from under her desk. “That's what you think Lulu. But Cadence is a master criminal compared to what they have done and is able to have anything if she tries. And any of our men don't have the skills to even stand a chance to go against her. In other words” Celesta said as she leaned closer “We’re royally fucked.” Luna sighed as she grabbed the bottle and took a swig as Celestia turned on her Television. The news suddenly came on which caught the sister's attention.

“Breaking news out of Canterlot today as a daring bank heist has occurred in our fine city. Witnesses report four ponies in mascot suits entered the Canterlot National Bank armed and started firing at security. Security footage shows one of the armed assailants threw a guard into one of the stone statues breaking it on impact.” the two watched as the camera footage showed what the reporter said. “Passers-by’s then noticed after the gunfire a large explosion at the top of the building. SWAT teams were deployed but appeared tube ineffective against this group as a large helicopter soon hovered over the damaged building and flew off with the safe containing hundreds of millions of dollars and the robbers standing on top.” as footage showed the helicopter flying away something caught Celestia’s attention.

“Zoom in please Luna.” Celestia said as Luna levitated the remote. Zooming in on the robbers Celestia saw what she predicted she saw. “Look here. This robber has a tattoo on his shoulder.” Celestia said as Luna leaned in for a better look. Sure enough one of the robbers holding the cables had a tear in his outfit revealing part of a fleur de lis tattoo. “There is only one pony I know that has that tattoo. I'm surprised he actually stayed in Canterlot.” Walking towards her filing cabinet Celestia pulled out a file and tossed it on her desk.

“Silverstreak. Started out as a washed up nobody with no previous records in southern Canterlot. Joined the Fifth Avenue Fleur’s after surviving a gang attack and became one of the most dangerous gang bangers in the city.” Looking through the files various pictures of dead gang members, blown up cars and collapsed buildings throughout the city. “When Mayor Mare hired him to rigged the election the gangs leader Fleur De Lis decided to frame him for her death by blowing up her office, rendering him into a coma for two years.”

“What makes you so sure he's the one who blew up the office and went into a coma?” Luna said interested as she read some of the files alongside her sister. Celestia grimaced as she remembered what she did back in then. “Because I helped set up the plan. Before we did this I ran alongside Fleur. We were good friends but I left the gang life. One night she called me saying she was worried that he would go for her afterwards and wanted a way out. I never expected though she would blow the whole place up. He was the only survivor of a terrorist act gone wrong according to the papers and the police report.”

Setting the files aside and looking back at the paused news footage Celestia reminisced about her past and her future. She knew that he woke up and went on a vendetta for the new gangs and against those who wronged him, including Fleur. She remembered seeing the newspaper article where she was found dead in her bedroom with a single gunshot to her heart. “Afterwards he took over the gang and was somehow able to turn it into a media empire. Energy drinks, bobble heads,........ your underwear.” Celestia said with a smirk causing Luna to grimace. “But anyways, this would seem like something they would do, not to mention the mascot suits are of their own high ranking lieutenant's.”

“They own a gentleman's club downtown. Why don't we go down there and arrest them ourselves? I do love a firefight after all.” Luna said cocking her pistol. Celestia shook her head and walked over to a coat hanger “It wouldn't work. Yes us as Alicorns give us extra durability but he's smart enough to find a way to take us down easily…… or blast us with RPGs until we croak.” finding what she needed out of a old jacket Celestia grabbed her car keys and opened her office door. “We’ll do this calmly and keep our heads. I just hope things didn't change too much from what I remember.”

The drive was short as the two sisters arrived at the nightclub. The outside itself was decorated with pink and purple neon lights and various Fleur markings. Outside stood two ponies dressed in purple tank tops and black jeans guarding the door. Getting out of her car Celestia skipped the line of ponies waiting and walked up towards the door. “Can I help you miss?” the first guard, a buff unicorn mare said. “I'm a past member and have heen out of it for awhile. Just wanted to see what has changed over the years.” Celestia said handing her a old card. Looking the card the mare waved her partner over, a equally muscular pegasi stallion, and pulled out a phone and dialed a number.

After a few moments the call was answered as the mare spoke to the pony on the other end. “Hey boss. Two mares are outside wanting into the place. The older one gave me this old card that looks like something from the old days. What does she look like? Tall, white coat, odd triple colored mane. Her race? Some kind of pegasi unicorn thing. What? Okay. Uh huh. Okay. Got it boss.” the mare said hanging up the phone. “Boss wants to see you immediately. He'll be in the VIP area and will have someone meet you as you go down to the place. Just enter the elevator and don't do anything stupid.” soon the doors opened revealing a elevator as the sisters entered.

After some time the elevator stopped and the doors opened revealing a unicorn mare on the other side. The mare was a cream colored mare wearing a bright red bikini outfit and red taped glasses. “Ah. The boss would like to see you. Just follow me please.” the mare said as she turned and walked with a sway in her step. As they followed the mare Celestia took in the scenery of the club. The walls were purple with white marble decorations and small columns acting as a support until the hall entered the main dance hall. The main area had two stories with multiple marble column decorations and ponies everywhere. Towards the front was a large staircase with a large statue of Fleur De Lis sporting a bright gold halo above her head and sporting a pair of purple demon wings. “Please follow me miss.” the mare said again as she tapped Celestia’s shoulder. Regaining her train of thought Celestia followed the mare and her sister to a curtained off area with a gold sign saying VIP next to it.

Inside the colors changed to dark pink and featured a small bar and dance area and few personal booths for ponies to rest or participate in other activities. Passing some booths with mares dancing on the tables the mare stopped in front of a booth and signaled for the mares to stop. “Boss. The two you wanted to see are here.” the mare said as she smiled. “Thank you Moondancer. I can take it from here. You go have fun dear.” a stallion said as he stood and gave Moondancer a quick kiss. “So. It's actually you. I'm surprised you actually decided to come back to us after all this time Celestia to come visit.”

“I wish it was like that Silvers, I really wish it was, but you killed Fleur and decided to disrespect the entire gang with what you did.” Celestia said as she looked at him with anger. Silvers chuckled as he stood up revealing a blue earth stallion “You seriously think I did that? I listened to your phone calls with Fleur and how you wanted me gone. Believe it or not you two actually saved me from that happening. Two years ago when I saw Mayor Mare she wanted to congratulate me for helping her win the election by putting a bullet in my head. When you blew up the place you rescued me until I saw you and her were behind it. After I got out I so wanted revenge against you and Fleur but decided she would do since you had no knowledge of the bomb.”

Celestia looked at the stallion with a mixture of hatred and regret. He was right on her planning out how to rid him but never knew about the explosion and the mayor's death. “So anyways what do you want?” Silvers said as he sat back down and poured himself a drink. “We saw that there was a bank robbery today. They took off with the entire vault using a skycrane.” Celestia said as Silver took a sip of his drink. “We also know that one of the robbers had a fleur tattoo on his shoulder, specifically in the same area as yours.” Silvers paused drinking to look back at the alicorn smirking at him. “I should have all rights to arrest you right now and close this whole place down but I know that wouldn't do shit. So I've came up with a better option for you to do.”

Sitting down with Silvers in between them the sisters pulled out their details and laid them out on the table. “Mi Amore Cadenza. Formerly known as Cadence. Her and her bodyguard boyfriend Shining Armor are one of the most dangerous people in the world. As of recently they've took a highly top secret project and are recent recon team were…..unable to retrieve it and were captured as well. Luna and I are hoping that you travel to the Crystal Empire and go ‘retrieve’ what was taken from us and bring it back.” Looking over the files Silvers contemplated his actions before deciding what he wanted to do. “What about this recon team? What's their history?”

“Former criminals turned good…..ish. A group of highly trained mares who are capable of getting jobs done. They prefer to be called the ‘Cursed Six’, lead by their leader Twilight Sparkle" Celestia said sliding a file over to Silvers. “Unfortunately our last communication with them showed they were captured by Cadence and she is currently holding them captive in the Empire.” Silvers looked at each of their mugshots as he took in the information “Moondancer mentioned someone named Twilight once. How they used to be friends until Twilight disappeared without a trace. What do I get in return for doing this for you? You know I don't do shit for free.”

“Full pardons and immunity for two years. We'll remove all the charges on you for the bombing and I'll confess on public television that I helped cause the bombing and blame you.” Celestia said as she gathered the files. Silver thought it over then pulled out two shot glasses and poured some of his drink into them. “Well then ladies you have a deal. Consider us now working together.” Silver said as they lifted their glasses and toasted.




Later that evening in the Crystal Empire a Pink alicorn looked out towards the large city that she controlled. As she looked at the nightlife the phone on her desk rang until she pressed the speaker button with her magic. “Speak.” she said sternly. “Cadence" a voice said on the other end “everything is in order and ready. The project has been successfully secured and testing has begun. We should be ready in a couple weeks.” Cadence smiled as she turned to face the phone “And our ‘guests’? How are they doing?” there was a short silence before the voice spoke again. “They're resistant for sure. The scanning is difficult due to them resisting the effects to fully process the information needed from them.”

“Give it time.” Cadence said “They'll give in and soon their memories and tactics will be able to be processed into our new friend. Afterwards we can alter their thoughts and beliefs all we want making them under our control. Any news on the two sisters and their plans?” there was the sound of computer typing before the caller answered back. “Nothing yet Ma'am. Only thing close was a giant bank robbery and that's it.” Cadence smiled more as she sat back down “Very well. Continue research and contact me if anything changes.” she said before hanging up and looking back outside back at her city.

Chapter 1: Free Falling!......into Crystals

Soon after their meeting about Cadence and the Crystal Empire, Silvers decided to close the club as he called his crew to plan out what they are going to do. “Alright boys, and ladies” Silvers said causing a few gang members to chuckle “We got a call to do some shit in the Crystal Empire. The info seems legit but I'm gonna need some of the crew to come help out. So for this I'm gonna need my lutenitents to come with me on this to help solve this.” sure enough two gang members walked to the base of the stairs. One was a black Griffin with light blue eyes with sunglasses resting on his forehead while the other was Moondancer still in her dancing outfit.

“Moondancer. Hellfire. Where the hell is Maverick?” Silvers said looking around for the pony. “He's most likely sucking some dick out in the Empire to promote our shit.” Hellfire said only for Moondancer to elbow his ribs. “What? Just sayin.” Pinching his nose Silvers looked at the two before sighing “Knock it off you two. Olly, your my best friend. Moony, your my marefriend. Please stop acting like children.” both lutenitents looked at each other and mumbled apologies before looking back at Silvers. “Okay boss” Hellfire said as he cocked his gun “So what's the plan?”

“ We're going to go to the Empire to get some shit and bring some mares back. So let's get this shit started!” Silvers said raising his own gun while the gang cheered. Soon after packing what they needed the trio left the club and were soon in a airplane heading towards the Crystal Empire. While on the plane Moondancer, now in a leather jacket and striped leggings, was listening to music while Hellfire, in his silver and purple sweatshirt and light blue jeans, was reading a travel magazine as Silvers slept in his seat. Deciding he needed some movement Hellfire woke up Silvers and got out of his seat “There's a bar near the front. Let's go get some drinks.”

“Sure. Hopefully they got Fireball.” Silvers said getting up and walking to the bar. As they walked some of the passengers looked up at the two then at each other all nodding. At the bar the two looked over at the stallion behind the counter. “One Fireball and Zap Shine.” Silvers said as he leaned on the counter. Hellfire noticed the bartender looking nervous as he darted his eyes between the two. “S-s-sure thing.” he said nervously. Both gang members looked at each other confused and curious while the bartender grabbed the alcohol with shaky hands. Soon pouring the drinks spilling a little the stallion handed the drinks to Silvers and Hellfire “H-here you go guys.”.

Looking at the drinks the two both drank their drinks while two of the passengers walked up behind them. Tapping his shoulder Silvers turned around to face one of the passengers looking at him agitated. “Can I help you?” Silvers said confused at the mare in front of him. The mare in question then pulled out a gun and aimed at Silvers head “Mistress Cadence sends her regards.” She said as she prepared to fire. As she squeezed the trigger Silvers quickly hit her arm causing the gun to shoot the bartender in the head before twisting her arm and breaking it. Meanwhile Hellfire punched the mares partner in the face before pulling out his knife and stabbing him three times. As the two fell the rear cabin door opened revealing more goons as they fired at the two, who jumped behind the bar for cover.

Meanwhile Moondancer heard the gunshots and saw the goons running past her. While the passengers were in a panic Moondancer quickly got up and grabbed her pistol from her purse. Following behind she used the doorway as cover while shooting off the goons from behind. While they were distracted Silvers and Hellfire grabbed the previous goons guns and fired on the rest sending them to the floor in a pool of blood. “So much for a easy arrival.” Hellfire said before two more goons came out of the cockpit. Reacting quick Hellfire threw his knife at one hitting him in the head while he shot the other in the chest. “And there goes the pilot and copilot.” Hellfire said as the plane lurched side to side.

“How the fuck are we gonna get there now?! No ones flying the fucking plane!” Silvers said as he grabbed ammo and guns. Hellfire looked over at the control bay and got a idea. “I'll fly it back to Canterlot and catch up.” both ponies looked at the griffon with unamused looks. “How the fuck are you gonna fly a plane?” Moondancer said as she reloaded her gun. Hellfire shrugged as he waved her off “Details details. Just keep your boyfriend safe and hop out the back.” Hellfire said as he entered the cockpit. Running back past scared passengers Silvers and Moondancer prepared themselves as more goons entered the passenger area starting a firefight.

Fighting off goons and killing them one by one the duo eventually made it to the rear cargo area as the rear hatch opened. As Silvers grabbed a parachute Moondancer found the nearby intercom to the cockpit. “Hellfire. We made it to the rear. We're gonna jump.” while the line was static eventually Hellfire responded panting “Right on. Had to fight off a few stragglers up front. I'll see you guys so-” Hellfire said before gunshots rang out followed by a thump and static. Looking at each other Silvers cocked his gun as he prepared to run back until the plane lurched hard to the right. As the two struggled to gain balance the cargo in the bay snapped loose and started flying out the back knocking the two onto the entrance ramp. Grabbing the edge of the ramp Silvers quickly grabbed Moondancer, who didn't grab a parachute, and hang on until a car rolled out and knocked the two out into the sky.

As he gained control of his freefall Silvers saw Moondancer falling faster than him screaming and flailing her arms trying to slow down. Determined, Silvers made himself more aerodynamic as he sped past terminal velocity passing fallen cargo and dead bodies until he caught up to his marefriend. Grabbing her arm Silvers wrapped her arms around him and pulled the parachute chord opening the chute and slowing down their decent. “I got you honey.” Silvers said as he hugged Moondancer, who hugged back tightly and cried on his shoulder. “I *sniff* saw my life flashed before my eyes. I wasn't ready to die *sniff*” Moondancer said muffled by Silvers jacket. Brushing her mane Silvers attempted to calm her down as he guided the parachute towards the nearby Crystal Empire eventually landing in the Industrial district of the large city state.




“What do you mean they got away?!” Cadence yelled as she slammed her desk. The pony on the other end of the phone was clearly distraught as his boss yelled and fumed at him. “Mistress Cadence please. We didn't know how tough they were. We gave them everything we had on that plane and they somehow got out the back. We only killed one of the lutenitents who was trying to fly the plane.” Slamming her fist onto the desk Cadence looked at the phone with blood in her eyes. “I don't care about a damn lutenitent! I wanted their leader dead! I've heard about this group and what they do and I'll admit I was surprised Celestia would go back to her old stomping grounds. But this stallion has done so much damage that he could pose a threat to this whole operation! *sigh* Shining Armor. If you please.”

“Wait what? Wait no no no!” the pony said followed by a gunshot, followed by two more gunshots. “He's dead. Such a weakling.” a different stallion said over the phone. “I'll take care of things down here Cadence. We'll get this project up and running soon enough and all of Equestria will be ours.” Cadence sat back down in her chair and looked out towards the city. “Good. I want Equestria to see what Mi Amore Cadenza is capable of! Any more reports Shining Armor?”

“Besides half our prisoners still fighting the scans, nothing of importance. But the information we've gathered so far we're gonna try on our cloning project. We used the necessary materials from the pink one and blue one and should come up with a viable subject, alongside the base DNA model from our friend whose hooked up to the wall.” Shining said over the phone. Turning around Cadence leaned over and looked back at the simple machine. “Very well. Continue research and find more information on the Fleur De Lis’. I need to know everything about them.”

“Yes Cadence.” Shining said before ending the call. Lighting a cigar Cadence took a quick inhale before letting out a cloud of smoke. “One way or another I will take over Equestria. Even if it kills me.”

Chapter 2: We're gonna need more guns..

After tossing the parachute and cleaning and debris off of themselves, Silvers and Moondancer started to walk down the streets taking in the surroundings. As the two walked they eventually reached a underpass filled with various brothels and sex shops. “Well this seems fitting,” Silvers said as he reached an ATM “Place is a shithole on the ass end of an equally corrupt city.” as he typed in his bank info only to see that it said there was a report of insufficient funds. Irritated, Silvers pulled out his gun and shot the ATM screen causing the machine to spark and shoot out a few dollars before catching fire. “So much for our rainy day funds” Moondancer said as she looked away from a random hobo getting a blowjob from an overweight prostitute “Last time I was here was Spring Break my Sophomore year of college.”

After checking his phone seeing that the crew's funds were okay back in Canterlot Silvers and Moondancer continued to walk down the street. “You know anywhere we can stay for a while? Pretty sure we’re not leaving anytime soon.” Reaching some cars the two stopped as Moondancer checked her phone “Well I did have an apartment that I used to stay at with some roommates and I’m pretty sure it’s still available. But other than that we’ll need some heavy weapons to go through with this plan.” Looking around Silvers eventually spotted a nearby sedan and walked up to it. “Any idea where we can get some guns? Pretty sure most gun stores in town won’t exactly sell machine guns and rocket launchers for cheap.”

“Well they do have an Army Depot on the edge of the city on a island, but I don’t think pissing off the military is a good idea.” Moondancer said as Silvers tried opening the sedan door, only to find it unlocked. Getting in and starting the car up, Silvers took in what his marefriend said “ An Army Base? Fuck it I’m down. Let Maverick know we’re in town.” Silvers said as he pulled up the base on his phone's GPS. “Oka- wait what?” Moondancer said as she realized what she just suggested. “You’re actually serious? I was being sarcastic! Robbing an Army Depot is a very bad idea that can get us killed!” As they neared the Army Base, Silvers noticed an armed guard and a simple security gate. Not thinking it over he gunneds the throttle and rammed through the gate as the startled guard tried to draw his rifle. Swerving past the surprised guards the car eventually went through a chain link gate crashing the car into a military truck. “Well then let’s not get shot then.” Silvers said as he got out and took out three guards with headshots. Groaning in annoyance Moondancer drew her gun and took out two guards with headshots and another guard on a turret with a gutshot and a heartshot.

The two shot and fought through the depot taking down guards and collecting as many weapons as they could carry. Soon the duo reached the main hanger and took cover inside and came upon a large bomb. “I feel like this might come in handy, let’s take this with” Silvers said as a swarm of guards reached the entrance of the hanger. While Silvers took down guards with a pump shotgun and Moondancer took down turrets with a AR Rifle the sound of helicopter motors and machine gun fire filled the air as Fleur helicopters flew into the base and took down the swarm of guards. As the copters landed Silvers and Moondancer walked up to the middle one as a zebra with dark red stripes stepped out of the helicopter wearing a white and purple suit. “About time you showed up Maverick. Have the crew load this shit into the helicopters and get us out of here.” Silvers said as they entered the helicopter “Oh. And we’re taking that bomb as well.”

Nodding in approval, Maverick signalled the other members to start loading as he flew the duo to their new residence for the time. “Take it that since I didn’t see you at the airport you had a rough engterance?” Maverick said as he flew towards the east of the city. “You could say that” Silvers said as he looked out the window “Cadence’s crew jumped us mid flight. Moon and I had to bail from the place. We…….lost Hellfire in the process” Silvers said lowering his head as Moondancer rested her head on his shoulder. Sighing, Maverick brought the helicopter to a nearby building and landed on the roof and shut off the aircraft. “That’s some shit luck for him. First his family, then himself? Hope he’s giving them hell in the sky.” Soon the trio entered a lower class apartment and settled in until Maverick had to leave for a commercial filming. Some time later Silvers and Moondancer cleaned themselves up and ordered takeout food before heading into bed together to get their rest for the days ahead.

“So….They took down a military installation and took off with weapons leaving dead bodies? Impressive” Cadence said as she looked at the large monitor in her office. “Other than that what are your status reports?” She said looking at the different screens on the monitor. “So far we still have control of the city” Shining Armor said as he polished a wrestling belt. “I drained all their money from their bank accounts. Other than that I’m still searching for miss Broken Horn but she seems to be trying to hide her digital footprint.” a smaller mare wearing cyber goth attire said as she typed away as a keyboard. “And so far our side of things with the drug and sex rings have been going smoothly. Surprisingly we still have issues with our ‘pet’ and her group of hive minds but some playtime later on they’ll calm down soon enough. We might have to give her a bit more punishment as well.” Said a pink mare with a blue mane and a blue mare with a matching pink mane.

“Good. My scientists have reported that our guests have surprisingly been more cooperative lately, except the purple and orange one. We’ll give them some more time before we have them isolated and contained. I’ll have my scouts monitor the city for their leader and we’ll send them our ‘project’ for a little……..test run. Now, go back to your business.” Cadence said as she ended the call and went back to monitoring her operations.

Chapter 3: Publicty Tour (Part 1)

View Online

The following day Silvers awoke to see that his mare friend was gone and that there was a note left on a nearby table. Seeing the note he reached down to grab it and saw that it was Moondancer’s handwriting.

Hey ran into the city to see if I can find some old friends and get some more info about this place. Also, Maverick called and said he wanted you to meet him at the park downtown, something about a ‘publicity tour’ or some shit like that. Idk about him sometimes and think he lets the popularity get to him. Just be careful cause Cadence’s crew is all over the place here, looks like she’s got her claws in a lot more than we initially thought. Have fun and love you, M.D

Smiling, he set the note back down and went and got dressed from some clothes in the closet. Looking at the sparse selection Silver grumbled a little and grabbed a t-shirt and a pair of torn jeans and left the apartment. Looking around he noticed a four-door sedan parked in the garage connected to the building and a set of keys hanging on a wall hook. Sensing that Moondancer left the car for him, he grabbed the keys and got in the car, and started the engine. As he pulled out of the garage he heard a ping coming from the dashboard, and saw a GPS system planning a route downtown. ‘Yep, definitely for me’ Silver thought as he drove down the road, following the route on screen and driving onto an overpass. Following the road for a few minutes, SIlver took an off-ramp going down and turning onto a main street heading south of the city. Passing a mix of small buildings and stores to large highrises and skyscrapers he eventually came upon a walled-off area. The park itself was a large area of grass with some trees, small hills, and a small pond with a bridge going over it.

Parking in an empty lot on the side of the area, Silver sat outside the car and waited for his zebra friend to arrive. Soon though Maverick arrived in a taxi cab and walked up towards his boss and friend. “What? Too cheap to get your own car?” Silver said as he grabbed Maverick's hand and gave him a quick hug. “Heh, fuck no. Just wanted to use public transport once in and a while. Helps you think and take note of your surroundings.” Maverick said as the duo got in the car. As Silver started the car, Maverick typed some numbers into the car's GPS system and set a new route for the car to follow. Leaving the lot and turning out of the park the two drove towards the destination while the two chatted along the way. “So…….why exactly are we setting up shop in the C.E boss? Doesn’t really seem like a place we would want to go to.” Maverick said as he looked out his window.

“Not really simple this time. We’re doing a favor for an old…..acquaintance of mine. Somepony Olly and I used to run with back in the day.” Silvers said as he turned down another street. Maverick chuckled as he messed with the radio “Didn’t think we did favors for ponies…..say what was Olly like back then?” Silver gave a small chuckle as he came to a red light. “Well, he was a lot calmer back in the day when I joined up. Back then we would just go around and cause chaos against other crews taking the city one district at a time. After the whole ‘explosion’ incident he was the first one to help bring the crew back to what it is now. At first, he was very friendly to others, long you don’t piss him off, but after what happened with……he changed from then. He was a lot quieter and had a bigger amount of bloodlust till we took down the bastards that hurt him, he calmed down but still had the bloodlust.”
“What did he do to them?” Maverick said as they neared the location on the GPS. “Well, it was a rival gang leader's son, some weak ass pegasus named Sogun whose ego was bigger than his brain. We had a funeral set up for the public view but the little shit showed up with some of his crew to take us out. Guess he didn’t realize how much he pissed us off cause we took out everyone he sent to us, well Olly more than me. When he tried to make a run for it I took the prick off his bike and dragged him back to Olly. Fuck he was beyond pissed when I brought him back…”


Years Ago….

“Where are you taking me?! Let me go!” Shogun shouted as Silver dragged him towards Hellfire as he stood by the casket. Responding SIlver let go of his neck only for Oliver to punch him straight in the jaw, knocking him to the ground. “Get up,” Hellfire said coldly standing over him. Grunting, Shogun stood up and took a swing at the griffon, only for his arm to be grabbed and sharply snapped as Hellfire broke it. The pegasus let out a scream only for Oliver to sucker punch him again, sending him back onto the ground. “Get up.” Hellfire again said coldly. Shogun tried to crawl away only for Silver to grab him and pick them up, only to push him back towards the pissed-off griffon. Desperately, the pegasus gave a weak swing that grazed the griffon's cheek, only to receive a hard punch straight to the muzzle knocking him down. “Get up,” Hellfire said as Shogun rolled over and braced himself against a tombstone. “Please…” he said with blood covering his lower face “I’m Sorry…..” Oliver just grunted as he stood over him “Not so tough now when the ones your attacking aren’t tied to fucking chairs huh?”

“I DIDN’T KILL THEM!!” Shogun screamed at his towering assailant, meeting Hellfire’s gaze as lightning flashed behind him. “You ordered it…..” Oliver responded, then suddenly swung with all his strength hitting Shogun right on his cheek and shattering the tombstone behind him. The young wannabe gang leader coughed up blood as he tried to get on his hands and knees, only to feel a strong talon grab the back of his neck. “You couldn’t even give them a proper funeral you piece of shit!” Oliver said dragging the weaker towards the casket. Dropping him and walking to the front of the casket, Hellfire tipped the box causing the lid to open and causing a random pony body to roll out. Realizing what was about to happen Shogun tried to plead for mercy, only for the griffon to throw him into the box and slammed the lid shut locking it. As Shogun screamed for a quick death, Silver and Oliver shared a look and lowered the casket into the deep hole, and started covering it with dirt.


Present Day….


“Fuck, man. That shit is fucking brutal.” Maverick said as they stood outside, reaching their destination partially through the story. The two stood outside a large red building with a row of large garage doors on the front and a smaller front office connected to the front. The car the two drove currently in one of the open bays being worked on by the building's mechanic while various car parts floated in their magic aura. “Yeah,” Silver said as he drank a soda he got earlier “Bet the little fucker screamed till his last breath. But after that, we soon took down his father when he attacked a kirin heritage festival. By the way, if somepony offers you a bottle of Kirin Beer….don’t drink it. Nearly learned that the hard way.” The two chuckled a little as they waited for the car to be completed. “A’ight I’m bored. Let’s go get you some new threads boss.” Maverick said as he eyed Silvers's clothes. The earth pony looked at the zebra, the mechanic currently mounting a bumper with a paint sprayer in their magic, then back at the zebra. “Uhhh……the car?” Silver said pointing back towards the garage. Before Maverick could respond though a newer sports car barreled by and screeched to a halt, nearly running the two over. As the two were about to walk to the car a unicorn stepped out of the car and walked past the two into the office and started yelling at the mare behind the desk. Irritated, the two walked into the office as the unicorn complained about how his car was missing an air freshener, only to be grabbed by his shoulders and slammed face-first into the concrete wall, going unconscious and falling to the floor. “Prick” Silver said as he grabbed the pony car keys and then turned to the mare behind the desk. “We’ll have somepony get him out of here, think you can have the car in bay 3 delivered to this address?” Silver said as he wrote down the apartment's address on a piece of paper. Taking the paper the mare nodded and gave a small “Thank You” as the two walked out the door, stepping over the knocked-out asshole on the floor. “Gotta say, he has some good taste,” Maverick said as the two got into the car. “Yeah,” Silver said as he started the car “Now he had good taste.”

Stepping on the gas pedal, the car lurched forward leaving a small cloud of tire smoke as the duo sped off. “How bout some music? Head for one of our stores on Southside.” Maverick said as he fiddled with the radio. After going through some music channels he eventually came upon one that was playing a familiar song. “No fucking way,” Silvers said as he look at his friend “They got fucking Afrostallion? Fuck yeah.” The two nodded to the music till the main chorus started, which caused the two to start signing.

“Said Colt 45 and two zig zags, Baby that’s all we need. We can go to the park, after dark, smoke that tumbleweed.”

After a short drive and an impromptu singing later the duo eventually reached the Southside of the Crystal Empire, a mixture of industrial districts and lower middle class suburbs. Driving down the main road towards the middle of the district they eventually came to a stop in front of a clothing store. The outer exterior was a mix of pink, white, and purple while three fleur de lis signs stood above the doorway, the words “House of Fleur” written in fancy lettering underneath.

“Well here we are boss, shall we go in?” Maverick said as he stepped out of the car. Silver gave a quick nod as the two walked to the door where a petite mare in a form-fitting blouse and fleur jacket opened the door for them, not knowing two occupants in a nearby sedan were watching as one dialed a phone. “They have arrived at the clothing store. Bring what Mistress Cadence requested for a…….test run.” the pony said before hanging up the phone.

Meanwhile inside the store, Maverick walked around the store while the smaller mare was busy designing a new outfit for Silver, who was currently standing on a modeling platform next to a small corner of mirrors. The store itself was more modern inside, with dark pink walls with gold and white fleur de lis’s dotting the walls, racks of clothes lining the walls, and display cases showing clothing accessories and gang merchandise.

“I must say,” the mare said as she measured Silvers's extended arm “It’s not often I get to make an outfit for the leader of the Fleur De Lis, let alone them being in my store.” Silver gave a soft smile and a chuckle as the mare turned to look for some fabric “The pleasure is all mine Miss Pommel. If what Maverick says is true about your skill in clothing, then I should be in good hands” Coco gave s small giggle as she picked up the new vest and suit jacket and put it on Silver.

Maverick gave a long whistle as the leader checked himself out in the mirror “Damn Boss, you make that shit look good.” he said as Silver nodded in agreement. His outfit now sporting a pair of Fleur branded shoes while wearing a set of blueish purple dress pants and a lighter purple vest with gold and white accents topped with a suit jacket matching the color of his pants, the buttons being Fleur de Lis’s and a set of purple tinted aviators over his eyes.

“Yeah, your right man. Coco, I say you did a damn good job with this.” Silver said as he finished checking himself out, earning a squeal of delight and clapping from the cream mare. “Oh thank you thank you!” Coco said as she clapped her hands together “To have you say that makes me feel so happy! It is such an honor to make your outfit.” Silver smiled as he pulled out his wallet to pay, only for Coco to shoo her hands at him “No no. You don’t need to pay me. Consider it a first-time customer discount. Just make sure you promote who made your suit for you.” Coco said with a wink at the end.

Chuckling in agreement, the duo started to leave the store only to open the door and see a bunch of Cadence’s followers' cars blocking the road in both directions. The two watched in confusion as a truck backed up from the alley across the road and stop as someone hopped out of the back. The pony in question appeared to be a yellow unicorn mare with a short yellow and red mane wearing some form of metal bands on her arms and some headpiece on her head attached to her horn. Drawing their guns, Silver and Maverick prepared for a fight only to be surprised as the mare started to draw her magic into her horn and hands, then firing a large red-orange beam of magic at them.

Moving quickly the two ducked back into the store, the zebra bracing around the corner while the stallion grabbed Coco and ducked behind the counter, using himself as a shield for the smaller mare as the beam blasted into the store with a small explosion. “You okay?” Silver said as he moved up against the counter, Coco quickly scrambling up next to him as he peeked over the counter. “Yeah……thanks” the mare responded as Silver looked around. The dust and smoke of the blast now settled as the inside of the store was a mix of debris and small fires. Seeing that Maverick was okay and moving out from his spot, Silver jumped over the counter and drew his gun towards the door. “Take this you bitch!” he said as he pulled the trigger, the bullet firing out and heading towards their assailant. The bullet hit the mare on the side of the head and ricocheted off in another direction, yet she still stood upright.

“Wha….” Silver said confused before firing another shot, only to hit her square in the forehead but not stunning her as the bullet fell to her feet. Sharing a look between the two, Silver and Maverick rushed outside the store and opened fire on their enemies. Taking down a few of Cadence's goons, Maverick chuckled as he reloaded his gun only for a hand to grab his wrist. “What the fuUUUCCCKKKKK!!!!!” the zebra screamed as the mare they shot at picked him up and threw him across the road into a parked car, a decent size crater embedded into the metal and he fell to the ground. “Mav!” Silver said as he saw his friend struggle to stand back up, only to turn and see the mare now charging in his direction.

Before he could aim his gun, the mare grabbed the blue stallion by his throat. Silver saw that she was using her magic as an extension of her own physical self as she picked him up and slammed him into the ground a few times, leaving a crater in the concrete. Grunting in pain, Silver aimed his gun at the mare's head and emptied the pistol clip into her face, only for her to appear unscathed as she gut-punched him a few times before throwing him into the middle of the street. Coughing and moving to his hands and knees, Silver looked around to see if he could find anything to take down this enemy, eventually coming upon a shotgun and some grenades near a dead gang member.

‘Worth a shot’ he thought as he grabbed the weapons while Maverick stood back up and fired his gun back at the mare, earning a low growl from her as she turned and started to charge at the zebra. Bracing for whatever she was about to do, Maverick was surprised to see his best friend unload shotgun slugs into the mare's back, earning grunts of pain as she fell to her knees from the shots. Before the mare had time to react and get back up she felt something round forced into her mouth, only to realize it was a live grenade before Silver kicked her away from them as the grenade exploded completely blowing the mare's head apart.

“Finally! Let’s get the fuck out of here.” Silver said as they turned towards their car, only to see it a flaming wreck as more gang cars arrived. As the two prepared for another gunfight a car horn pierced the air as Coco waved them towards her running car. Moving fast the trio all piled into Coco’s hatchback and quickly sped away with Silver behind the wheel. “Head back to the apartment. Step on it.” Maverick said as he watched the group of gang cars all speed off. “What the fuck was up with that crazy bitch?!” Silver said as he swerved through the random traffic, earning angry honks and small “Eeps” from Coco in the passenger seat.

“I’ve never seen anyone shrug off that many bullets, let alone throw a motherfucker thirty feet and leave a decent size dent in a car, and we ain’t skinny mofos Mav.” the stallion said as they got into the highway spanning the city. “Yeah. And what the fuck was that magic?” Maverick said as he faced forward in the backseat “I have never seen any unicorn magic like that, shit that looked like it could rival even alicorn magic.”

“Agree with you on that man.” Silver said as they got off the highway and soon pulled off to the apartment. “Well, here we are. Uh sorry about your store Coco, I’ll have some of the crew come over and help clean it up.” Silver said as he and Maverick got out of the car as Coco shifted over to the driver's seat. “It’s okay, I was planning on finding a new spot to set up anyways. Plus I don’t think my insurance covers gang attacks.” the mare said as she buckled herself into the seat. The stallion gave a small nod before giving her a small calling card “If you need anything just give us a call. Alright?” the stallion said earning a small smile and nod as she took the card before driving off with a short honk of the horn.

“You know….” Maverick said as he opened the door to the building “She looked pretty damn good, think you and Moons got a chance with her?” the zebra asked earning a sigh from his friend. “Really man? You always give me and Moondancer gripe about our relationship, not to mention I only know Coco for less than an hour and that ended with her store getting trashed.” Silver pushed his friend out of the way as they started to walk up the steps to their current residence. “.......Although I’ll admit…..she did have a nice looking ass.”

Cadence groaned as she rubbed her temples, her recent report about the incident on the Southside sitting on her desk. “The Fleurs are becoming more of a fucking problem than a nuisance,” she said to herself as she checked her phone. The phone screen showed the various vitals of the Cursed Six as she watched them through the building's security cameras as they struggled and resisted all the testing she had her people do to them. “At least that’s still going to plan somewhat.” the alicorn said as she set her phone down before clicking the intercom on her desk.

“Shining Armor, my office now. I need a stress release.” She said into the speaker, earning a ‘yes ma’am’ in response before she stood up and started to take her suit off. “Shining is gonna have to fuck me senseless for this fucking headache I have to go away,” Cadence said as she took off her shirt and bra, letting her large breast free as she tossed the clothes into her. “Ugh. Gonna have to turn the heat up in here, fucking tits are cold.” the alicorn said as she removed her pants and underwear, kicking it off to the side as Shining Armor entered her office and closed the door behind him. “Shining, good you're here. Now…” Cadence said as she turned around and faced the stallion, her fully naked body on display for him “Shall we begin?”
