Chinese Takeout

“Twilight!” Rainbow Dash tried to yell through the loud noises.

“What!” Twilight happened to barely hear her.

“What is going on!” Rainbow continued to yell.

“I have no idea!” Both of their ears were ringing because of the gunfire. They could hear voices outside of the crate. Rainbow tried to look out of one of the holes. She could see a wall. That was about it. Suddenly, a splat of red hit the wall followed by manly screaming.,

“Ew ew ew ew!” Rainbow Screamed.

“What!?” Twilight asked curiously as she moved around rapidly, trying to avoid whatever Rainbow was looking at.

“Blood! Lots of blood!” Rainbow screamed while panting.

“Where?” Twilight was still trying to move around.

“Outside!” Rainbow Dash was screamin.

“What? Bu-” Twilight stopped talking when she felt the box being lifted up. Both Rainbow and Twilight could hear more voices outside followed by gunshots. They both felt a thud as they were put into the trunk of the cavalcade.

“L. The money’s there, scoop that paper up, bro!”  Was all they could hear before their ears began to ring again. gunfire. A few minutes later they were moving.

“What is happening?” Rainbow asked Twilight quietly.

“Are we on a boat?” Twilight turned back to Rainbow Dash. The sway of the car made them roll around in the box and crash into each other.

“Oof!”

“Ow!”

They both tried to keep quiet while moving around in the box. They could hear more voices. What were they talking about? Twilight heard one of the male voices talking about being in the clear. He sounded like he knew what to do. Were they being rescued? Her mind wandered in thought.

“Hey... what do you think is going on?” Rainbow Dash asked Twilight while nudging her.

“I don't know?” She replied as quietly as she could.

After a few minutes of swaying and rolling in the box, they came to a stop. Rainbow and Twilight kept quiet.They were lifted off the cavalcade.

“Hey, we either got extra, or something cause it ain’t supposed to be this heavy man.”

Rainbow tired to look out of the box. She could see the cavalcade and a weird figure standing next to it. It was like nothing she had ever seen before! It was bipedal. It had blue jeans and a black jacket. It also had a short manecut like some of the wonderbolt academy stallions. Was it playing with paper?

“Hey, don't waste all that money. I’ll see you two later.” It said as it walked off. Rainbow decided to call it a he because he sounded like a male.

“What was that?” She said as she moved around and looked at Twilight.

“I don't know?” Twilight said shivering in fear as she saw him as well. They both felt the box being set down on the hard ground.

“Let’s get this thing open!” One of them said.

“Uh-oh...” Rainbow whispered to Twilight. They soon felt the box being impaled with a metal bar.

-One day later-

Luis dove down the main street, with Tony Prince, in a black Schafter. He swerved in and out of lanes. The LCPD didn't care if you ran a red light anymore, but barely tap a cop car and you’re dead. Luis turned right on a surface street and made his way into chinatown.

“We got to go to Dragon Heart Plaza.” Tony said cringing as Luis almost hit a biker. “I got this gun for you, Luis. It helps to be prepared.” Tony handed him a suppressed P90.

“Yo, we prepared for the apocalypse with this shit, Tony. This is hardcore.” Luis looked at the submachine gun.

“Yeah, well, I know a guy.”  Tony placed the P90 on the floor of the car.

“What we doing in Chinatown?” Luis asked as he ran another red light.

“Take a guess, another job for that Rocco.”

“Oh yeah? That moron pal of yours. After what happened at the driving range? We still owe that fuck?”

“I’ve done a lot of dumb things in my life, Luis, but none of them were dumber than borrowing from those pricks.” Tony peered out the window.

“Really, Tone, because you done some real dumb things. I mean, you’re still going out with Evan.”

“This is serious! The fucking mafia!” Tony shouted in the car. “Even if we did have the money to pay them back they wouldn’t take it. They’re gonna ride us into the ground.”

“But you don’t have the money, do you, Tone?” Luis made a quick right. “Hey, what about that thing in london? That going to pull us through this?”

“Didn’t I tell you? Shit, London ain’t happening.” Tony watched for any suspicious cars. “And I wouldn’t travel to that side of the pond any time soon. If you were thinking about it.”

“Fuck, bro. Thanks for keeping me in the loop, again.” Luis parked the car and got out. “We are here.”

They made their way up to the fourth floor of the plaza.

***

“Hey, Look! We’re not lawyers. Okay? We run nightclubs. Pretty badly, too.” Luis tried to talk with the man in charge of the plaza. “We got enough Trouble keeping the licences on our own clubs. Okay? We don’t do licences.”

“Before I was being polite, Mr. Lopez, but I do not have to be.” The man said. “Mr. Pelosi made it clear that you are not in a position to choose who you hep and who you do not.”

“Yeah, well that kid’s got a big mouth, okay? and he ain’t in no position to be writing checks for us. Okay?” Luis turned to the door in the small, poorly built room. “We are not going to be able to help you. Period. Let’s go, Tone.”

“Sorry to waste your time, Mr...” Tony was cut off my the man's sudden outburst.

“You are not going anywhere until we have an arrangement!”

“No, I’m afraid we are. There is no arrangement.” Luis turned back to the manager. “You got a problem? Take it up with your boy Rocco.”

“You are not negotiating column inches and bar tabs, you insolent fuck!” The man said pulling out a glock and aiming it at Luis. “We are serious people.”

“Really?” Luis looked unphased.

“Yeah. Really.” The man replied with force. Luis chuckled before kicking the gun out of his hand. The man shot the ceiling and alerted his men. Luis punched him in the face and knocked him out instantly.

“What is wrong with you? I was supposed to be the irrational idiot with anger issues?” Tony looked at the unconscious man.

“The guy threatens to shoot me because I can’t arrange a liquor license for him. Please, give me a break T.” Luis pulled out his P90 and took cover behind some dry wall.

“His guys are coming! They heard that shot.” Tony cowered behind Luis.

Right on cue, a Triad turned the corner into the room. He was soon met with a chest full of bullets. Luis brought him down, blood splattering against the new walls of the plaza. Luis turned the corner and slowly walked down the hall. The place was filled with Triads. He turned another corner and a Triad rolled into the room on his knees, surprising Luis. Luis kicked his jaw and pelted him against the ground. Bullets spraying into him. He motioned to Tony giving him the ‘all clear’. Tony followed Luis into the hallway. Soon the hallway opened up into a large room with cubicles. Bullets whizzed past Luis’ head. Tony stayed back while Luis moved up behind some boxes.

“It ain’t me going down!” Luis shouted as he reloaded the P90.

“Fucking psychopaths!” Tony yelled from behind.

“You scare now?” One of the Triads said.

“Calm the fuck down!” Luis pulled back the release and fired at him getting a headshot! “Your beef ain’t with us man.”

“Find a happy place. Find a happy place.” Tony kept repeating. “Not fucking fun!”

“Fuckin’ Chinatown!” Luis shot at another Triad, clearing the room. He and Tony made their way to the stairs and walked down into the lobby. It was filled with Triads behind every corner.

“I’m gonna kill Rocco when we get out of here.” Luis reloaded his weapon.

“You are dead motherfuckers!” A Triad screamed before getting shot in the head.

“I’ve had enough of this Bullshit!” Luis said, gun blazing. Suddenly a Triad rolled a grenade towards Luis. “Shit Nade!” Luis yelled as he kicked it back. It exploded, sending three Triads against a wall and sharpnel piercing everything. “I knew Rocco was a peice of shit, what did we get into?”

“Does it matter? Just get us out of it!” Tony slowly took cover as Luis moved up. Four Triads came in with Ak’s firing on their position.

“You motherfucking cock sucking sons-a-bitches.” Tony yelled.

“Give it to ‘em, man. Maybe your words is gonna scare ‘em off.” Luis blind-fired from behind cover hitting two Triads in the legs. They screamed as the fell, clutching their thighs. “Bring it!” Luis yelled as he dove out of cover and fired at the two remaining Triads in the room. As Luis landed on the floor, so did they. Luis got up and Tony followed him into another hall. They were nearly out. Three Triads turned into the hall and held Uzi’s.

“If I don't make it, the clubs are yours, Luis.” Tony said as he took cover.

“That mean the debt’s mine, too? You can keep it.” Luis fired around the corner and took out two of the Triads. “Fuck you!” Luis took out the last two. “Tony. Move up to me.”

“Perfect, just perfect!” Tony made his way to luis as they exited the building. “I can't believe we made it out of there. That was worse than spin class. My fucking heart.” They both jumped in the car and drove off. Luis’s phone started to ring. The caller ID belonged to Armando. He asnwered.

“Hey, What up A?” He drove down Lower Easton. “Yeah... what about the stash?... What? What are you talking about? Horses? Did you and H. use it all up already?... Fuck! Alright... I will come by. Hold on.” Luis Hung up the phone and turned to Tony.”Hey, I need to go. Some trouble with... something.” He said as he pulled over.

“What?” Tony was confused. He couldn't put the conversation together.

“Nothing... just look after yourself T.” Luis said as he stepped out of the car. Tony took the wheel.

“Alright Lu.” Tony sped off. Luis waved down a cab. The taxi stopped and he got in.

“Were to?” The cab driver asked.

“Cerveza Heights.”
