Underbelly Of Baltimare

~~~~Blood In Baltimare~~~~~

               A couple of days later Lowell had found where Dusted lived and scoped the place out some, seeing he had a mansion and his own private army. He also learned of a party the stallion was going to hold to show off his collection, of how it was going to be moved gave Lowell an idea. How the items were moved was by a black van that came to the mansion and picked up the cases. As for Cuffs that stallion came around now and then just to check on Breanna, the stallion has a soft spot for younger members of his gang along with foals. Lowell owes a lot to Cuffs since it was him who told him a great deal of info on Dusted, even about the parties he holds just to show off his stuff and with this plan Lowell can pay Cuffs back for that info.

“Okay.....a heist...no blood shed nor drama...simple as that...”Lowell muttered to himself as he walked into the house seeing Breanna and Cuffs sitting at a small table playing tea time.

“........And why wasn't I invited?” Lowell asked as he grinned while Cuffs quickly bolted up putting on a tough guy facade.

“It wasn't what it looked like!”Cuffs exclaimed as he blinked.

“Relax, you were keeping her company..thanks.”Lowell said before nodding.

“As it would seem your here on a good time....How's your pull in that gang your in?”Lowell asked as Cuffs only grin.

“I'm the leader of The Chains.”Cuffs said he crossed his arms with a grin.

“.......Okay....That'll do....I don't need a lot from ya big guy, just four pegasus and you on a building watching with a rifle. There will be a lot of bits  in it for ya and your pals.”Lowell explained as Breanna tilted her head.

“Uh, we will talk later just get them to meet us here later alright?”Lowell asked as Cuffs shrugged.

Later around the time of night fall after Lowell tucked in Breanna, he then walked into the living and came upon the group crowding the living room one pegasi recognized Lowell.

“Hey, that's the asshole who beat me and my buddy up!”The pegasi said as he flared his wings.

“Shut up, you will wake Breanna and I'm the guy that's gonna give you lot a nice quick bit..”Lowell explained as Cuffs nodded at the pegasi who grumbled.

Lowell held up his phone taking a picture of each of the pegasi's faces.

“Now, I can get on getting you four an I.D.....what I need you four to do is get four of those uniforms that guard Dusted Trinkets place...just nab those and I'll tell you when its a go.”Lowell continued as he sets up a board placing some pictures of angles of the mansion and roads.

“Now two of you will wait in the tunnels for a black van that will come I say around 9 PM, you two will take the van...and leave the guards some where outta the way till this blows over....You other two will be at the back entrance waiting for the van, when it comes you four will 'load' the collection to 'take' to a safe place....I'll tell ya where later..”Lowell continued as he was pointing to the board.

“Now big man, you will be outta the way on a building with a rifle keeping an eye on everything, I'm gonna get a suit and converse with the party...I'll mark what I want...Reason why you ain't with your guys....is well as you said it..racist to any pony who ain't a pagasi.”Lowell said as he looked at the group.

“Yea....whats in it for us?”A pegasi asked as Lowell smirked.

“Well, this is a heist as the word Implies, all I asked is for one amulet which I will mark....the rest that is loaded onto the van is all yours...Just that amulet...the rest is going to be given generously to you from Dusted Trinkets.” Lowell explained as he earned some chuckles from the group.

“Recap, you four get the outfits...Cuffs you get a sniper rifle...I'll deal with the rest...I'll tell Cuffs when we are ready till then you guys have a week tops.”Lowell said before slowly putting away the photos and board.

After the group left Lowell let out a sigh before pulling out his phone dialing Applejack's number, the mare herself sighed and picked up

“Hello?”Applejack answered.

“Hi Jackie....”Lowell said with a smile.

“Howdy sugarcube.”Applejack said as her ears perked up abit and she tried to sound happy.

“......Jackie....whats up...I can tell something is up.....”Lowell asked not falling for the facade.

“Nothin' it's jus'.. Big Mac left for canterlot with his lil' coltfriend.. ahn the kids are always off and Golden is growing up far to fast... Ah feel alone...”Applejack answered as she sat at the table.

“......I've got some good news....I can be home a bit past next week.....I just need a favor.....”Lowell said as he smiled hoping to cheer her up.

“That's great! What's the favor sugarcube?”Applejack asked smiling softly.

“I'm going to send some pictures of four pegasi..I want you to get some pony in the ESPS to make convincing I.Ds.....cause I plan on stealing the amulet.....”Lowell answered as he leaned back against the wall.

“O-okay...”Applejack not liking the sound of it.

“Look..I don't like this Jackie but...the pegasus isn't a nice one from what I heard....and I doubt I can buy it......relax..I made up a good plan,......have a lil faith...”Lowell said  as he rubbed the back of his head.

“Ah'm jus' worried.. Yah come home with a single scratch ahn ah'll ring the pony who did its neck.”Applejack threaten as Lowell chuckled some.

“Well Jackie...as much as I hate to say it I gotta say good bye for now.”Lowell whispered as he sighed.

“Oh... Ok... Bye sugarcube...”Applejack muttered as her ears flattened.

“Love ya Jackie...”Lowell whispered.

“Ah love ya too sugarcube.”Applejack whispered/

He hung up his cell and sighed.

“I better get things sorted....so me and Breanna can get the buck out..”Lowell muttered as he got up.

~~~~ A week later ~~~

Lowell was placing on the stetson along with the suit he picked up, the four pegasi were dressing up in uniforms which looked much like a modified swat get up.

“Right we all got our ear pieces and I.Ds right?...Stick to the plan and you shall make a good amount of bits.”Lowell said as he straightens out the suit some.

“Yea, what if it goes to shit?”Cuffs asked as Lowell looked at him.

“Well, simple you go and don't speak of it hide away for a couple of days or so...I hope....We won't have to worry on that if we stick to the plan..”Lowell said as he grinned.

Lowell passed out earpeices to each pony as they placed them in their ear.

“Now pip pip boys, we got lil trinkets to collect.”Lowell said as he smirked.

       The group went their own ways and Lowell didn't have to worry about Breanna for she was at school, perfect so he only had to worry for the heist to go off with out a hitch. He took a deep breath approaching the mansion along with the lines of ponies, Okay, just gotta mingle and plant my mark on the case with the amulet and get out... Lowell thought to himself before showing his I.D to the guard at the entrance and slipped in. Lowell only blinked looking around the inside of the mansion maids, butlers, and no shortage of guards, golden railings, rugs carpeting, several fountains, and endless rows of paintings of Dusted Trinkets.

“Great gosh....Look at this place....just....like a bucking castle mansion sized.....wow...”Lowell muttered to himself

Lowell found the main hall the room was filled with ponies of high class viewing the cases of items and relics, Lowell browsed them till he actually spotted the amulet it self. He grinned slowly place a small mark spot on the side of the case, Lowell continued to keep his distance from some of the guards and mingled till a pegasi walked up to him.

“Well, hello handsome.”The voice said as Lowell jumped a bit and looked to the pegasi who looked like him, but wore a some what like his just with a brown leather jacket

“Oh, you must be Dusted Trinkets! Heard a good deal of ya..” Lowell said as he smiled some.

“That I am...Question is I don't know who you are?”Dusted asked as Lowell smiled.

“Winged, not from this city..visiting..”Lowell answered as he crossed his arms.

“I...see....enjoy the events to come...”Dusted said as he eyed Lowell a bit which seemed to be cold before walking off.

After a small while Cuffs whispered something over the comms.

“My boys got the van, everything seems to be going smoothly...This just might work.”Cuffs said over the comms.

“Well, that's good.......Kinda got this idea from a game I play before coming to Equestria.”Lowell muttered with a smile.

“Wait...what?”Cuffs muttered.

Buck me...that Dusted dude gave off some baaaad vibes. Lowell thought continuing to blend in. The party was long and very, very boring seemed like eternity for Lowell but the party had finally ended as the guest were ushered out. No alarms or notices have gone on as the party went along or after he left, His cellphone started to ring as he picked it up.

“Hello?” Lowell asked.

“Hey, We got the shit....we left your amulet in a breifcase at the lock up..”Cuffs said over the phone.

“Alright, enjoy the bits fellas.”Lowell said with a smile before hanging up.

As Lowell walked to the lock up which was just a garage in an apartment complex, a storm started as he sighed. Man I was hoping not to mess up this nice suit. Lowell thought as he held onto the stetson coming up to the lock up and found the brief case. He slowly opened it finding the amulet he seeked inside.

“Oh thank Celestia....now to go..”Lowell stopped when her heard his phone go off.

“Uh, hello?” Lowell asked.

“Hello handsome, you aren't as slick as you think you are...”Dusted said over the phone as Lowell gulped.

“What...are you talking about?” Lowell questioned as Dusted chuckled.

“Kid, your pretty stupid...I've got trackers on those cases and one of my camera's spotted you placing something on my prized amulet....”Dusted explained.

“...Well, I need this amulet if I wanna go home..”Lowell said as he sighed he was about to hang up till what Dusted said next made him froze.

“Well I got something apparently of value to you...a changling named Breanna....what's she worth to you?”Dusted asked as he grinned.

“Your....sick.....where are you....I'll give the amulet back....just..give her back...”Lowell answered as he sighed.

“How about around your neighborhood?”Dusted said with a chuckle.

“Fine fine,..keep your word and I'll keep mine..”Lowell muttered as he hung up.

“Buuuuuck....I knew it was too easy.....buck buck buck buck BUCK!”Lowell growled as he picked up the case and quickly started walking towards the neighborhood.

By the time Lowell came there was Dusted with a crying Breanna standing beside him along with several of his guards.

“Daddy!”Breanna called out to him.

“Its okay....I'm here.....I got your darned amulet....”Lowell muttered as he tossed the case out in the middle as a guard walked over and picked it up.

“Now...let her go.....she is innocent..”Lowell said as he glared at Dusted.

“Right right...whatever....”Dusted said as he lets Breanna go as she ran over hugging Lowell's leg.

Dusted and his men left in a limo while Lowell leaned down hugging the filly.

“Thank Celestia...your safe...”Lowell whispered hugging the filly.

He stood up as his phone vibrated as he pulled it out of his pocket, there was a text message that reads.

Time to learn your lesson kid.

Just as Lowell tilted his head a gunshot was heard from a distance, within a fraction of a moment all Lowell saw was Breanna falling over clutching her chest.

“Breanna!!!” Lowell yelled as he picked up the filly.

“D-daddy.....I...Don't feel too good...”Breanna whispered as her wound trickled quite a bit of blood.

“No...j-just stay awake....please....”Lowell whispered placing his hand over the wound applying pressure.

“I still got to get you......to Ponyville.....”Lowell said as tears weld up in his eye.

“I......dad.....I lo..lov..”Breanna tried to say only passing away in his arms.

“B..Breanna?....darling?....Come on....wake up.....p-please..”Lowell whispered as he placed his forehead on Breanna's fore head.

“.....I'm going to make that fucker pay....”Lowell growled as he pulled out his phone.

Applejack's phone rang as she picked it up

“Hello?” Applejack answered.

Jackie....T-They...”Lowell tried talking as fought back some tears.

What's wrong sugarcube?”Applejack asked sounding worried.

“They.....they.....they fucking killed Breanna!”Lowell said as he brushed the fillies mane.

“Who did sugarcube?”Applejack asked as she placed her hand over her mouth.

“.....Dusted Trinkets.....That doesn't matter.....he is gonna be dead...Very fucking dead...”Lowell growled.

“Lowell Ahm comin' to baltimare.”Applejack said as Lowell snapped.

“No!..I. Will. Not. Lose. Any. Pony. Else. I. Love. To. This. Fucker........stay.....please...”Lowell said as tears flowed freely down his cheek.

“...Stay.....I tried dealing with this guy I was trying to be nice and get away with out blood shed.......The farm.....the kids....need you......I'll be home...very soon..Do not come....If I lost you.....I don't know how I would live with my self...”Lowell replied as he stood up holding the deceased filly.

“How'd yah think Ah'd feel if ah lost yah!” Applejack exclaimed as she kicked the table over.

“You won't........I'm a different kind of pony when I am mad......I will come ba.”Lowell was cut off by the phone dieing off there.

Applejack put the phone down and sat down in a chair holding her head sobbing.

Lowell glared at his phone.

“God fucking damn it!”Lowell growled as he puts his phone away cradling the filly.

“....Rest now Breanna.......Your in.....a better place...”Lowell whispered as he slowly walked into the house with the filly.

A father's wrath is to be heeded, for those who cause it may Celestia help them.
