Chapter 2: Twilight Meets Jack I

Twilight decided to allow Fluttershy to meet Jack, but it doesn't mean that she wasn't going to go easy on him. She doesn't trust him as she keeps close distance to get to know him. While Twilight and Fluttershy were having a conversation, Jack doesn't know what to say when it comes to three fillies. His left eye was twitching because they were cute.

The voices reminded him his own daughter that he missed. He wasn't sure how to say it when he used to get along with the kids, but not anymore. As it was a struggled since he reminded himself that he used to be a detective searching for missing children. As the three fillies were very curious about him, but he wasn't aware that he has a cutie mark on his flank.

"Okay, you can meet him, Fluttershy, but that doesn't mean I'll go easy on him, being that I'm still not sure about him," Twilight said as she was suspicious.

"Why don't you trust him?" Fluttershy asked as she was concerned, "I think he's a nice pony. Just look at him,”

As they watched him talking with the three fillies, even though Jack seemed to be struggling to talk with them for some reason, they don't know yet.

"No offense, but he looks like he's having trouble talking back to them than actually talking to them," Spike said, he has been just as suspicious as Twilight.

"Let's just give him a chance, I think he's trustworthy," Fluttershy insisted.

Twilight noticed his cutie mark on his flank, but she doesn't find it trust worthy since it resembled something that is his occupation.

Twilight asked, "Fluttershy, have you seen his cutie mark yet?”

Spike asked as he tilted his head, "Why is there a chain with a skeleton and two wretches in shape of an "x" or was it something?"

"Excuse me mister, but what does that cutie mark stand for?" the yellow filly asked Jack, as she noticed his cutie mark.

Jack flinched when he saw the cutie mark on his flank. He didn't know what a cutie mark was, or what their meaning was. As he struggled to answer that question, but he just didn't know what the hell it meant as he couldn't find himself to answer her question.

Jack said in his mind, "It resembles the logo on the back of my jack for some, but…”

Jack said in confusion, "What is a cutie mark?"

Twilight knew that it was more than she expected, everyone knows about the cutie mark. She knew that he was bad news about him from him when she felt something was wrong with her magic. As she feels the wind was blowing stronger as it was dark all of the sudden. Twilight got a bad feeling about it, but none seem to be aware about it yet.

She looked at him, but she got a gut feeling about this. She was a bit worried and suspicious, but she doesn't trust him. She got an idea for a challenge to see if he is trustworthy or not as she thinks privately in her mind. She doesn't want Fluttershy or the others to think that she doesn't trust him as she pretended to take an interest in him.

It doesn't mean that no-one will suspect a thing since she made up the lies within her mind to say to Jack. She feels guilty about lying to a new face except she needed her friends help for the challenge. When he is asleep the plan will go in motion.

"So, what's the cutie mark for?" the yellow filly asked Jack, starting to become impatient.

"If it has something to do with my talents, then I guess it's for killing a bunch of bad people," Jack admits.

Every pony reacts at the word "killing". Murder is something that rarely happens in Ponyville, or in all of Equestria for that matter. When you encounter a bad pony or creature, it doesn't justify "murder"; no matter how bad what they had done was…

"Killing?!" Fluttershy asked in shock, horror and fright.

Jack said in his mind, "I should have never said anything like that?'

Jack said, "Did I say killing, I mean punishing!!!"

The orange filly asked, "What kind of bad pony?"

Everyone sighed in relief as they continued on, but Jack has to choose his words wisely to make a bad impression. He should never say that before three innocent children, but everyone overheard it.

The three fillies are still curious as they asked him numerous questions and Fluttershy sighed in relief as he meant "punishment" not killing. She wasn't sure what to say, but she was glad that it wasn't "killing" for some odd reason.

But Twilight and Spike on the other hand, weren't too convinced. Twilight was pretty sure he was serious when he said "killing", but then again, she also didn't sense any lying when he said punishing either. But that doesn't mean she won't find him suspicious.

"I punish ponies who commit crimes before I send them to jail,” Jack explained to the fillies about his talent.

"Are you a knight or a bodyguard?" said the white filly.

"What kind o' crimes?" The yellow filly asked in a curious tone.

Jack has to choose his words wisely since there are crimes in the world that will do cruel acts of innocent people. Killers who killed people for fun and some will go far enough to abuse them before kill them. There are crimes beyond inhumane than robbery and vandalized properties. He has to look through cases before he has gone rouge for his crime as punishing and killing people are the same difference to avenge the soul. He has a lot to think about it when they looked at him with curious for the answers.

Jack said to them, "Ponies who cruel acts against the law without any mercy to the victim... Those who could do the worst damage to break a family apart or worse…”

The yellow filly appeared to be unease except she was hiding something that her friends don’t know about. She could understand what punishment means, but killing. It was something that is out of the ordinary, but she will have to ask Jack secretly.

"Oh," the white filly didn't understand much of it, but only a little curious.

"And those who will kill the innocent children without any care in the world," said Jack as his tone was serious except mixed with sadness as he was reminded of the case that he failed to save an innocent girl, "Those who will neglect their lovers and I also searched for innocent victims who were kidnapped or missing... makes sure that they get back to their family.”
