At The Casino
Chapter Two: A Royal Visit
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe day proceeding Soarin's little, accident, I opened the casino at 7:00 o'clock, and watch as something I didn't see every day strolled right on the sidewalk in front of me. I opened the door to greet the blue princess alicorn. "Wow, p-princess Luna!?!?" I rambled, but I was finally able to redeem myself. "I-I'm sorry, ptincess... it's just.. we don't get many princesses... cetainly not ones from canterlot!"
"Can a princess not gorge thyself every once and again?" She asked, with that early equestrian voice.
Th-that's not what I meant your highness, I apologize." I had to be humble, it was my duty as a businessman. That... and... well, I had no idea how to respond to a fucking princess, other than to practically kiss her ass, and if she asked, maybe literally.
"Please, this is no formality for mineself, thou can relax as of now, and if I have any fun may return with friends." She smiled and winked, which I was sure meant more princesses. She made her way to a slot machine with a medium sized baggie of bits. I made my way, gave a kiss to her hand, and made my way back to my office where I sat in my little chair watching the princess go at it with the slot machine one bit after another. At one point I noticed the princess with a disappointed look, and I left to check her. As I approached she was about to speak, but I cut her off.
"Princess, whatever has happened to the machine I can help." I was nervous at this point, she wanted me to act like this was nothing, but it was huge... all she did was grab my wrist and gently pull me and puionted to her jackpot on the machine, but no bits came out. (P.S. bits became a secondary form of cash after the paper dollar came out, but the bit is still worth the same.) "Oh... I do apologize my liege, allow my to compensate. I reached once again into my tux coat's pocket and removed a small roll of a much larger amount, about 6 G's should.. this cover it?
"yes, I do appreciate you trying to fix my ruined moment, I've had quite the time..." she had kind of a smirk on her face, I wasn't sure what this was insinuating, but I shrugged and moved on.
"Wait a minute..." it hit me faster than a train, she could've been cheating. I rushed into my office. "Bruce! replay the last twenty minutes on the surveillance! I sat at my chair and watch the camera that was hovering over Luna, and several more ponies that were sitting next to her. I stared closely at the black and white video played. "Bruce! Pause!" The vidoe stopped on Luna looking smartly at the machine with her.. HORN GLOWING! That con! "I am going to KILL HER!"
I busted though my office door and stopped in front of the princes, stopping all three slots she had spinning in the process. "Princess Luna... I reviewed the surveillance... you know what I saw, yes?" She gave my a confused look, and I removed the money from the purse she had. "One, THIS is rightfully mine... TWO, YOU used YOUR horn to cheat my casino.
"I hath done nothing of thine accusations!" Her look faltered to the ground for a split second, and that gave it away.
"Why the worried look, my dear? Hiding something that I saw on the FUCKING SURVEILLANCE!?!?" This had pushed my damn buttons, she thought that because she was royal she could get away with it... no... not in Blackjack's place...
About four minuted later, I had her cuffed behind my casino in the alleyway. "Luna Luna Luna... your stupid mistake... well, now, should you decide to come back, you'll have to warn all of your friends about the consequences of robbing me."
"I hath told thou over and over I hath not committed the deeds!" She, even now, had that look in her eyes that she knew she'd fucked up... big time.
"Oh.. and... Luna... magic won't work with me, those cuffs are enchanted... swell what a zebra can do if you offer just a bit of your soul!" I laughed, a little louder than intended, but she got it. "Now, whaddya say for some payback?" I removed my butterfly knife, and removed the blade, pressing it against her cheek, and pulling it slowly, the blood trickled down her face as she bit her lower lip to prevent the yell of pain. "What, too much, bitch? the pain too much to handle? Hah.. you're a disappointment." I brought the blade to her chest, and dragged at a little quicker, and blood flew from the blade, and she screamed, loud. "A shame your pretty dress will have to be ruined... must've been expensive, it would've been more than the money you stole... so, why bother?"
After several hours of torture with the blade, I'd been satisfied, I put my knife back in my jacket pocket, and smiled, her blood soaked her dress and nearly covered the ground. "Now... can we get you to a hospital before you bleed out on my casino alley?" I picked up the princess and slung her over my shoulder, she was breathing shallow, and I laughed again. "Princess.... just tell Celestia you made a mistake... she 'll get it... and trust me... i'm governmentally immune... I can't be stopped." All I got was a grunt in return, she under stood, and I carried the bleeding princess to the hospital where all would be fine.... as soon as the wounds healed.
