Part 1 It's been two years since The Boss kicked it. I’ve been doing my part in keeping the peace here in Phillydelphia. It’s been quiet the last couple of weeks until that letter showed up. At first I thought it was just junk mail. But that was before I saw the royal seal on it. It was addressed to The Boss, but since he isn't with us anymore, I’m the next in line to take his responsibilities. Apparently the Princess needs the Boss’s expertize in odd phenomenon in a small town called Ponyville. Since it was the Princess I had no choice in the mater. Looks like me and Phillip have some work to do. TTT______TTT In Golden Oaks library, Twilight was helping Rarity make fliers. The fliers were for a room Rarity was renting out. Since her parents were on a year long trip overseas she thought it would be a good idea to rent out their room to make some extra money. With their permission of course. As the two unicorns finished the last of the fliers Twilight looked at Rarity. “Are you sure it’s safe to allow a stranger to sleep in your house.” Twilight ask with concern for her friend. “Why certainly darling” Rarity replied casually. “I am a grown mare and I am more than capable of taking care of myself and my sister” “Ok if you say so. Oh I almost forgot. I need to get to the train station soon.” Twilight looked at the clock to see it was a quarter to three. “May I ask why?” Twilight trotted to the desk and picked up a scroll with her magic. “I got a letter this morning from the Princess. She wants me to deliver this to somepony who is coming to town at three o clock”. Just then Spike burst through the door out of breath yelling “Twilight!” “What’s wrong Spike?“ Twilight asked with concern in her voice Trying to pull himself together Spike answered. “It was a fire in the town square again.” “That’s the second one this month” Twilight added “Please don’t tell me it was another boutique” Rarity asked in a dramatic tone almost fainting. “Yeah it was that new shop Squarestitch’s Dresses” Spike answered. “But don’t worry nopony got hurt” “Oh my” Rarity exclaimed in shock. “Well that’s good that nopony got hurt, anyway we need to get going. Are you coming Rarity” Twilight ask waking to the door. “Why of course darling” she said as the three headed to the train station. TTT_____TTT At the train station the passengers waked onto the platform. Twilight and her friends saw all the ponies entering town. All of a sudden two stallions showed up in front of the three. One was a light brown earth pony with a dark brown mane. He wore a purple button down shirt and tie under a vest. He also wore a black fedora and his cutie mark was an odd black symbol that looked like half of a W “Hello, I’m looking for a 'Ms. Twilight Sparkle'?” “Um, yes that me” she said nervously. “Are you the one that the Princess told me to find”. “Why yes. My name is Shotaro and this is my partner Phillip”. Shotaro then pointed to a gray unicorn with a black mane. He wore a long-sleeved shirt with yellow and white stripes under a green sleeveless jacket. He had three binder clips in his mane and the same odd symbol as a cutie mark but it was green and reversed. He said nothing as he continued to read his book. “Hello Mr. Shotaro since you know who I am let me introduce my friends, Spike and Rarity,” she said as she pointed to the purple dragon and the white unicorn. Rarity looked at the earth pony’s outfit. “May I say Mr. Shotaro your outfit look positively marvelous.” “Thank you. I do try my best to look hardboiled,” after saying that Shotaro adjusted his hat. “Oh, I also have this letter for you” Twilight then levitated the letter from Spike’s claws. “Thank you,” Shotaro grabbed the letter from the unicorn’s magic and put it in to a vest pocket. “If you don’t mind I’d like to continue this somewhere more private.” “We can go to the library,” Twilight offered with a smile on her face “Perfect” Shotaro said. Phillip’s eyes lit up at the word library. “Looks like Phillip is on board.” The five then left the station and made their way toward the library. The group walked down Main Street. Twilight tried to look over Phillip’s shoulder to see what he was reading but her efforts failed. Spike shot Shotaro a cold look as Rarity was having a conversation with him on his outfit. Shotaro stopped all of a sudden and looked at the charred remands of a store. “What happened there?” he asked his purple maned companion. “Oh my. That use to be Madame Hatter’s hat shop. Unfortunately it burned down a couple of weeks ago.” “Has anything else like this happened lately?” “Yeah. A dress shop burned down just this morning,” Spike said “I see,” Shotaro put a hoof to his chin to think. “Phillip. You, Twilight, and Spike head back to the library. Me and Rarity will investigate the scene. If that’s okay with you ladies,” he said. “No problem,” Twilight said. “Why of course darling,” Rarity responded in her lady like fashion. “Hey!” Spike objected. “I’m not going to let you take my dear Rarity!” Spike said balling his fists. Shotaro chuckled and patted the young dragon on the head. “Relax little guy. I’m not going to steal her. I just need her as a guide. Besides, it looks like Twilight is more interested in my partner,” he said pointing at Twilight still trying to see what Phillip was reading. “Fine,” Spike huffed as he followed Phillip and Twilight back to library. “Well then” Shotaro said adjusting his hat. “Let’s get started” TTT_____TTT After a few minutes of looking through the burnt rubble, Shotaro managed to find nothing but odd, black rocks that seemed to generate heat. “This is weird,” he said to himself. “What is?” Rarity asked looking at the rock in his hoof. “This rock is still warm after all this time, and it's been a couple of weeks since the fire,” he said rubbing his chin in thought. "What does that mean?" "I don't know, but maybe my partner does." Shotaro then pulled a strange device out of his vest and flipped it open. On one side it had numbers and the other had a strange glow on it. Rarity watched as he pressed the numbers with his hoofs before putting the devise to his ear. "Hello, Phillip." TTT______TTT At the library, Twilight was drinking tea that Spike had made for her. Phillip was on the couch reading his book, oblivious to the world around him. After several attempts to spark a conversation with Phillip, Twilight decided to give up and just leave him alone. All of a sudden a ringing sound was heard coming from Phillip's jacket. He pulled out a strange device, flipped it open, and put it to his ear. Twilight looked at Phillip wondering what it was he was talking into. He soon pressed a button and placed the device on the table. He stood up and closed his eyes. A faint, almost otherworldly light began to glow around him "Ok, I'm ready." " First word: Heat," Shotaro's voice said from the device. Twilight was shocked to hear Shotaro through the object on the table. She didn't know what it was or what kind of magic Phillip was using. After a few seconds he spoke again. "Okay, next word." Shotaro's voice continued "Second word: Black rock." "What the hay is going on here?" Twilight yelled trying to get an answer from the unicorn. Phillip ignored her and continued with his conversation. "I need more information." TTT______TTT Shotaro looked around the pile of rubble until a burnt hat caught his eye. He picked it up and looked inside. He read the tag. It said "Golden Thread Designs". He turned to Rarity and showed her the hat. "Do you know who this is?" Shotaro asked. Rarity took a closer look at the hat before gasping "Oh my, this is one of Golden Thread's. She's only the biggest up-in-coming designer in Canterlot. I just got a few of her works in this morning. And if I remember correctly so did Square Stitch." "BINGO" Shotaro said as he resumed his conversation with Phillip. "Ok third word; Golden Thread" after a few minuets Shotaro closed the device and looked back at Rarity. "Do know where Carousel Boutique is? We need to get there now." Rarity looked puzzled as she answered "Why of course. I am the owner after all. Why do you ask?" "I'll explain on the way but we need to go now." he said as the two began running toward Carousel Boutique. TTT______TTT As the two closed in on the building the image of a mysterious pony came into view. Shotaro stopped a few feet in front of the light tan stallion. "Stop! Your under arrest!" he yelled while pointing in a dramatic pose. "You're here to stop my vision?" The mysteries pony said in a low voice. "Just like those idiots in Canterlot. But they'll pay. You'll all pay" he then pulled out a strange red rectangle with a M on it. The M looked as if it was a volcano. He pressed a button on the rectangle. A voice came from it. "MAGMA!" He then put the rectangle on a mark on his foreleg. The rectangle disappeared into his arm as his body began to transform. He soon became a tall, two legged creature. He had two arms and was covered in armor that looked like rock and lava. Flame cascaded around it's body. "Oh my Celestia what is that!?" Rarity screamed as she fainted onto a couch that suddenly appeared out of nowhere. “It's a Dopant," Shotaro said. He then stood up on his hind legs and pulled out another strange device. It was red and silver with two slots on it. He put the device on his waist and it unfolded into a belt. Shotaro then pulled out a rectangle that looked like the one the Dopant used. Only this one was purple and had a stylized J on it .He pressed the button and the voice shouted. "JOKER!" He then crossed his left hoof over his chest and yelled out "HENSHIN!" TTT_______TTT In the library, the same device showed up out of nowhere around Phillip's waist. He sighed and closed his book. "Looks like they're in trouble," he said. "What was that? Did you say something Phillip" Twilight said looking at her house guest. "Don't worry about it Ms. Sparkle." He then pulled out a green rectangle with a stylized C on it. He pressed the button. "CYCLONE!" He then crossed his right hoof over his chest and said. "HENSHIN!" "What is that?" Twilight asked. But before he could answer he put the rectangle into one of the slots on the device. The rectangle disappeared and Phillip fell unconscious. "Oh my Celestia. Phillip are you okay?" She ran in a panic to his body to make sure he was alright. TTT______TTT The green rectangle appeared in the slot on Shotaro's belt. He pushed it in to place before putting his in to the other slot. He then crossed his hoofs to make the belt look like a W and the voice called out again. “CYCLONE! JOKER!” A cyclone formed around Shotaro. Rarity looked in awe as armor formed around the stallion. Soon in his place was a pony covered in armor. Half was green and the other was black. He had no mane but his tail was silver. He had on a helmet with the same dual color scheme with red, bug like visors where his eye should have been. On his flank was what looked like both Shotaro's and Phillip's cutie marks put together. The warrior then struck a pose and said in both Shotaro's and Phillip's voice "Now, time to count up your sins!" Author's Note Stay tuned for part 2 Just reedited thanks to BladeSpark The mystery begins/Enter W. Part2Chapter 2 The mystery begins/Enter W. Part 2 Kamen Rider. A name given to the heroes who fight for Justice. The few who would put there lives on the line to protect the innocent. These masked warriors ride into battle regardless of the danger. The title of Kamen Rider goes back far beyond the time before the two sister Princesses came to power. There stores have been told throughout the ages. I am only half of one of these heroes. I am half of Kamen Rider W TTT_____TTT The masked warrior stared down the magma monster as he stood for a few seconds after saying his line in a fighting stance. He charged at full speed towards the monster before delivering a few light jabs. The monster swung his arms to attack but the warrior dodged and countered with a roundhouse kick. The monster stumbled back. He started to fire magma balls at the armored pony but he evaded the projectiles until one hit and knocked him to the ground. The monster then turned his attention towards Rarity who was still amazed at the battle in front of her. The monster started to form a larger magma ball and aimed it at Rarity. "Shotaro, Rarity's in trouble!" Phillip's voice side as the red eye plate on the right side of the helmet lit up "Don't worry. We can handle it," Shotaro's voice replied. He got back up and closed the belt. He replaced the rectangles with ones that were red and silver. He then crossed his hoofs like before and the belt yelled out. "HEAT!METAL! The two halves changed colors. The green half was now red and the black half was silver with a strange rod on his back. He then ran at full speed to intercept the lava ball. He stood in front of Rarity as he pulled out the rod. The rod then extended into a bow staff and started to spin to break up the lava ball. Rarity was still in amazement as to what she was watching. "Are you alright?" Shotaro asked as Rarity stood speechless and her pupils grew to the size of pin holes. "Don't worry I'll explain everything later" The Dopant began charging at the two. Flames formed around the Metal Shaft as the warrior ran and stopped the attack. He then jump kicked the crater in the Dopant's head and sent it flying back a distance. He then began to hit the Dopant with the flaming rod. "Let's end this thing now." The two voice said. He then closed the belt and replaced the two rectangles with the ones he used at the beginning of the battle. He then opened it back into the W shape "CYCLONE!JOKER!" With the two sides returning back to green and black the armored pony removed the purple rectangle and placed it into a black slot on the side of the belt. The belt cried out again. "JOKER!MAXIMUM DRIVE!" A cyclone formed as he was lifted in to the air. When he was high enough he hit a button on the slot and began to fly straight towards the Dopant. Halfway the pony began to split in two as both voices yelled out. "JOKER XTREME!" A cyclone formed around the green half pushing the black half until both kicks hit the monster. Rarity's jaw dropped as the two halves reunited into one pony. The hero turned around away from the Dopant as he exploded. As the flames cleared, the tan, blond haired stallion fell to the ground. The mysterious rectangle came out of him and flew through the air before falling apart in front of Rarity's hooves. The armored pony closed the belt and pulled out the two rectangles. A second later the armor disappeared leaving behind the fedora wearing detective. Rarity shook her head to snap herself out of the shock of seeing something so amazing before running towards Shotaro. "What in Celestia's name was that!? Who is that stallion!? How did that armor appear on you!? Why where you speaking in two voices!?" Shotaro adjusted his hat before looking at Rarity. "I can't explain everything now but I can tell you who he is. His name is Needle Point, a designer from Canterlot who was going to be the next big thing. That was until Golden Thread stepped up and stole his spotlight. He was so consumed with jealousy that he used the Gaia Memory to burn down any business that sold her clothing. It's a shame too, my favorite hat is a Golden Thread original." "Oh my, I can't believe that somepony wold do such a foul act of violence" Rarity said. "By the way, thank you for saving my life." "It was no trouble at all. We'll head back to the library as soon as I contact the Royal Guards nearby to pick this guy up." Shotaro said as he pulled out the device that he used to talk to Phillip earlier. "By the way I've been meaning to ask. What is that thing?" "It's a Stag Phone." Shotaro answered. "It's one of Phillip's invention. It has two uses. One is to allow me to talk to anypony who has another one anywhere in the world. And I was just about to show you the second one." Shotaro then pulled out another Gaia Memory only this one was different. It wasn't as sleek as the ones he used in battle and was covered in exposed machine parts. Instead of a stylized letter it had an image of a stag beetle. He put the memory into a slot at the bottom of the phone. The voice that came from it was different too. "STAG!" In a matter of seconds the phone transformed into a mechanical beetle. It floated in the air before flying off into the sky. "Well then, since that's taken care, of let's get going." The two began to wake towards the library. TTT_______TTT In the library Twilight was in a frenzy. In her hooves was the unconscious unicorn that she just met. She sent Spike out to go find help but Twilight was worried that something really bad had happened to Phillip. "This is bad, really really bad. What am I going to do? There's a stallion laying lifeless on my floor and I have no idea what's wrong with him. Maybe if I use that defibrillator spell I learned last week it'll wake him up." With few options left, Twilight's horn began to glow with magic. After a few seconds Phillip's eyes sprang open. "Clear!" Twilight yelled out "No, wait Twilight I..." But before Phillip could finish he was electrocuted by Twilight's magic. "AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Phillip was flung across the room hitting a book shelf, causing the book on top to fall on to him. "Oh my goodness! Phillip are you alright?" Twilight ran to help the gray unicorn up. He dusted himself off and looked back at the librarian. "I am so sorry. I didn't mean to make the spell that powerful." "Don't worry about it. I've lived through worst." Phillip replied. "The work me and Shotaro do can get pretty dangerous." "By the way, why are you two here? I mean if Princess Celestia called you it must be important." "I don't know. The letter we got only told us to come to Ponyville and look for a lavender unicorn with a star cutie mark. I guess all the information on the job is in that scroll that you gave Shotaro." After mentioning his name the door opened. Standing outside were Shotaro, Rarity, Spike, and nurse Red Heart. Rarity ran straight through the doorway eager to tell her friend about what just happened to her." Twilight you simply must have been there. There was this monster and Shotaro turned into a armored pony which by the way I find his design tacky. Not a big fan of the hole half and half look..." "Ahem" nurse Red Heart interrupted with a pissed off face. "I was told that there was an unconscious pony." "Oh yeah. He got better" Twilight said with a nervous smile on her face. Nurse Redheart sighed and face-hoofed "I hope you realize that you pulled me away from some very important work." "But when I got to the hospital I saw you reading a magazine." Spike said The nurse stood still for a moment. "I need to back to the hospital." And then she bulleted out of the library. "I think it's time we explain everything Phillip" Shotaro said. TTT________TTT The four ponies sat around the table. Spike was serving tea as Shotaro and Phillip finished telling the two mares about the Gaia Memories and about Kamen Rider W. They told the two that the Gaia Memories are an ancient magic dating back to before Equestria was founded. Nobody knows who or what created them but they disappeared when Celestia's and Luna's mother joined forces with the first Kamen Rider, a pony named Ichigo. But recently the Gaia Memories started to show up again. "So let me get this straight. You two use this "Driver" thing to send Phillip's mind into Shotaro's body and then you become this Kamen Rider guy?" Twilight said trying to grasp what the two stallions told her. "Well it's more complicated than that but yes" Phillip said as he lifted the cup of tea with his magic. "And what's with those Dopant things?" Rarity asked as she taking a sip of her tea. "Any creature who uses a Gaia Memory transforms into a Dopant and are not only a danger to others but themselves as well." Shotaro answered. "Oh I almost forgot the letter" he pulled out the scroll out of his pocket. "What does it say?" The young dragon asked "Hold on. Let me read it first."Shotaro said. He started to read the letter outloud. TTT________TTT Dear Sokichi It's been a while since we last spoke. How's that young colt that follows you around? Anyway it has come to my attention that Gaia Memories have started to reemerge. The Royal Guards have manage to track the distributor to Ponyville. Normally I would send my student and her friends to handle this problem but I fear that this is too dangerous for them. That is why I ask you to come to this town. I need you to find and stop whoever is responsible for causing so much terror. My student and her friends shall help you in any way they can. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get you any housing. Sorry Princess Celestia TT_______TTT "So even the Princess knows about this problem. I should have guessed she would know." Shotaro said as he put the letter down."I just didn't know that she knew the boss so well." "Who is this Sokichi?" Twilight asked "He was my mentor." Shotaro said as he took off his hat "He taught me everything I know about being a hard boiled detective. Unfortunately he's left us two years ago." "I'm so sorry for your loss." Rarity said."You know after everything that has happened today and the fact that you and Phillip are homeless I'm willing to offer you the room that I’m renting out. After all you did save my life." Rarity said. "That is very generous of you Rarity, thank you," Shotaro said. At that moment Rarity got two new housemates and Ponyville got a new hero. To be continued Author's Note Big thank to BladeSpark for editing At this point I feel I can take about the story a little. You mite be wondering why Phillip is a unicorn. It's become I said so, and for what's to come later in the story. I also want to say that the next few chapters will be devoted to introducing the mane 6. I will get to Museum soon after. Stay tune for "The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a sugar heigh" Pleas leave a comment to let me know what you think The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a Sugar high part 1Chapter 3 The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a sugar high. Part 1 It's bin a week since we came to town. Thanks to Rarity's generosity we now have a roof over our heads and a bass of oppressions. The rent is reasonable, just 200 bits a month. Much cheaper then the apartment in Phillydelphia. Not to mention the new landlady doesn't hit me over the head with a slipper. All that a side the detective agency is up and running and all that's left is to find some cases. Ponyville is now under my watch. TTT________TTT Shotaro finished typing on his bemire typewriter in his new room at Creosol Boutique. It was a larger room with lavender walls. It hade a desk, two twin beds with dark purple bed sheets, a small two pony coach, and a hat rake with two hats on it. Shotaro got up out of his chair and waked torus the door levying the room and grabbing one of the hats off the hat rake. He waked down the hall leading to the boutique part of the building. As he entered the room he had to put his hoof over his mouth to contain his laughter."may I ask what you two are doing?"Shotaro said with a uncontrolled grin on his face. Standing in front of him was Phillip wearing a green and pink ball gown as Rarity worked on it wearing red work glasses. "Oh his just helping me with one of my orders. I'd usually ask Rainbow Dash to model for me but I can't find her anywhere" the dress maker side TTT_______TTT at Sweet Apple Akers Applejack waked into the barn with a cart of apples. as she entered threw the doors she nodes a small pile of hay shaking in the corner. Applejack looked behind the pile to find Rainbow Dash hiding. "Let me gauss, Rarity wants ya to model for her" she asked with an emotionless face. Rainbow Dash just nodded. " Alright ya can stay" Applejack side as she got back to work. "Do you need anything wile I'm here?" She ask as she stated to waked out of the barn. "Yay, a quoit of cider and the new Daring Do book, I'm planning to stay hear a wile." TTT________TTT "If you laugh I swear to Luna I'm going to buck you right in the face!" Phillip throated with a still face. "Don't be angry Phillip you look absolutely fabulous." Rarity said." Not to mention you have the same body type as my friend Fluttershy. Minus the wings." Phillip didn't know whether to take that as an insult or a complement. Shotaro managed to stop laughing but still a goofy smile. "Ok then, I'm going to the library to see if thad have any hard boiled detective novels." Shotaro side as he headed torus the door." Do you need anything wile I'm out." As he reached for the doorknob he was interrupted by the door opining and hitting him in the face. A pink blear ran in to the boutique and tackled Rarity. "RRRAAARITY!!!" What was siting on top of Rarity was a pink earth pony with a slitty darker pink curly mane and three balloons as a cutie mark. "Pinkie Pie calm down and tell me what's wrong." Rarity asked as she got up off the floor. Pinky Pie tuck a deep before explaining her situation. " I woke up early today after my reoccurring dream about how I became Princesses of candy land. I wheat down to the kitchen and I couldn't find Mr. or Miss Cake anywhere. So I when to the kids room to see if they where ok and they where gone too. And I'm afraid something really bad happened to them So I asked Applejack to help but she had work, Twilight and Fluttershy had errands, and I can't find Rainbow Dash anywhere. So can you pleas help me. Ooo who's your new friend?" Pinky Pie broke out of her panic as her attention was now on the dress wherein unicorn. "This is Phillip." Rarity answered. " him and his friend Shotaro are new to Ponyville and are renting a room in the boutique." "Wait there are two new Ponies in Ponyville" Pinky side with enthusiasm. "That means that I need to throw a welcome to Ponyville party!" she side giggling with excitement." No a double welcome party! But first I need to find the Cakes" "Maybe Shotaro can help. After all he is a detective" side Rarity. "That's perfect. Where is he?" Rarity just pointed to the doorway.Pinky waked to the door and closed it to revel Shotaro knocked out on the floor. He then got up and started his tie. "Smooth move Half-boiled." Phillip said with a smug look on his face. "Shut up Phillip you know I hate that nickname" "So will you help me Mr.Shotaro?" Pinky Pie asked. "You just hit me in the face!" Shotaro side rubbing his noes. "And I'm really really sorry" Pinky said with the most apologetic smile. "well this dose sound series. Ok you will be my first case in Ponyville" "Yay!!!" Pinkie Pie then grabbed Shotaro and dashed out the door. Phillip and Rarity just stud there trying to proses what just happened. "Why do I have the feeling that something vary off about her?" Phillip asked. Rarity responded "I have that feeling all the time." TTT_______TTT Pinky Pie dragged Shotaro all the way to Sugar Cube Corner. Shotaro searched the please top to bottom for any clues that mite lead him to what happened to the family. "There no sign of a frost entry or a struggle. I also couldn't find anything that can tell me who the culprit is" Shotaro tolled Pinkie Pie in the kitchen. "So whoever did this must be a real master mind." Pinkie side with her most series face. "I'm ready to do everything in my power to find them." Pinky then slammed one of her hoofs into the other. After that statement a piece of paper on the refrigerator caught Shotaro's eye. He grabbed the paper and read it silently. "I think we just solved this mystery" "really who did it?" Pinkie asked. Shotaro then handed her the letter. She started to read it. Dear Pinkie Pie. Me and Ms.Cake have taken the kids to see there grandparents. Pleas take care of the shop for us wile were gone. We'll be back the day after tomorrow. Don't eat the inter bakery. Mr. Cake "I'm sorry Pinkie Pie but it looks like you just overreacted when you missed the note." Shotaro side with a kind smile. "Oh that's ok now I can focus on planning yours and Phillip's double Pinkie welcome party!" The party planer said happy that her second family was safe. "By the way, what is a double Pinkie welcome party?" "Well you see whenever a new pony comes to Ponyville I throw them a huge welcome party so that they can meet everyone and make friends and since there are two of you that means everything needs to be doubled. I wonder how that will work." "Well I can't wait to meet everyone." Shotaro side. All of a sudden a loud rumbling coming from Shotaro's stomach." Well I guess it almost lunchtime. Do you know where I can get a good sandwich?" "Boy do I!" Side Pinkie Pie. The two headed to the back door when out of nowhere Shotaro slipped and fell to the floor. When he got up he found a white, brown, and pink puddle coming from the door that leads to the front of the bakery. "What is this?" The brown pony asked. He then dipped his hoof into the puddle. Pinky Pie took a closer look at the puddle. She sniffed it before tasting it. "It's ice cream!" Pinkie Pie yelled excitedly. "Ice cream?" Shotaro questioned. He then licked the brown liquid on his hoof. "It is ice cream. And it's coming from the store front." The two entered the store to find something shocking. In front of them was a brownish yellow pony trapped in a giant ice cream sandwich. "What happened hear?" The pink pony asked. After saying that a big blast of wipe cream hit her, sticking her to the wall. "Pinkie Pie, are you ok?" "This is amazing!" She replied as she began to lick her sugary bonds. How can I not be ok? I'm covered in wipe cream!" "What are you doing hear? I thought this place was closes." A mysteries voice said. Shotaro turned his herd to the see who it was. In the doorway was a large creature. It looked like it was made out of sweets with a wired blend of red, yellow, and green. It had a red cone for a head with two misshapen eyes. On it's left arm was a green cone with red and yellow strips. "So your the one responsible for this." The detective side in a cool tone. "Do you mind clueing us in to what happened hear." "All I wanted was something sweet. Unfortunately Sunday hear wasn't willing to cooperate ." The Dopant Responded. "We'll I can't just let you tern the citizens of Ponyville into desserts now can I " Shotaro said as he pleased the doable driver on his waist. "And what are you going to do about it" "Do what I do best. Be hard-boiled." The rider pulled out the Joker memory and pressed the button. "JOKER!" He then crossed his hoof over his chest "HENSHEN!" TTT ________TTT Back at the bouquet. Phillip was free from the dress makers grasp and back into his normal close. He was reading his book in the kitchen as Rarity sat across the table eating her lunch of a dandelion salad. "Are you shore you don't want anything?" Rarity asked "I'm good" There was a pause before Rarity spoke "I can see you really love books. Almost as much as Twilight" "Well I do have a library in my head" "pardon!" Phillip put his book down and looked at Rarity. "The Gaia library. It's an ability I have that let's me accuse all the knowledge in the world. That's how I knew that Needle point was coming hear. If I have the keywords I can lookup anything." "Wow that's incredible! I bet that Twilight wood love to learn that spell." "It not magic. I'm not too share what it is myself." all of a sudden the double driver appeared on Phillip "Dose that mean that Shotaro in trouble?" Rarity asked. "Looks like it" Phillip then pulled out his cyclone memory and pressed the button. "CYCLONE!" he crossed his hoof over his chest "HENSHEN!" He put the memory into the slot, as it disappeared Phillip fell to the floor. Rarity picked him up using her magic and pleased him on the couch. "Note to self. Get Phillip his own fainting couch." TTT_______TTT Shotaro pushed the cyclone memory in to place. He then pleased in the joker memory and crossed his hoofs to activate the double driver "CYCLONE!JOKER!" as the duel colored armer formed around Shotaro. Pinkie's eyes widened. In all her life she never thought that she'd see something like this "Now time to conteup your sins." After saying that the rider then bucked the monster out the door way and into the street. "What is that thing? A candy monster." The left side side as the warrior waked out the saloon styled doors. "do not call me a monster. Ponies like you don't understand the fine art that goes into crafting delectable sweets." But Double ignored the dopant as he continued to attack by unleashing a few powerful kicks. Wipe cream started to spew out of the living candy's month covering Double's hyena lags. It soon herded trapping the rider in his tracks. The dopant shot more of the cement like substances only for it to be blocked by Double's right foreleg. "Looks like this is a sticky situation." Shotaro said. "This is no time for bad puns. I can't activate the heat memory" Phillip yelled. "well I can still do this." The left side then pulled out the joker memory and replaced it with the metal memory. "CYCLONE!METAL!" The left side soon changed to silver and extended the metal shaft. A mechanical bat came out of nowhere and attached itself to the metal shaft. It then began to flap it's wings and make a high pitch noses. The sound waves started to brake up the cement cream. Now freed, Double swung the rod to fire blades of wined at the dopant. "forget this. I have bigger gummy fish to fry" damaged and frustrated the creature melted into cream and disappear into the ground. "Looks like I solved one mystery only to be thrown into another" "I'll do a keyword search when I get back."Phillip side "Oh my gosh that was awesome!" Pinkie yelled as she bounced up to the half and half hero. "You didn't tell me that you where a super hero!" "How did you get out of the wipe cream? That stuff was as hard as a rock." Double closed the driver to undo the transformation. Shotaro was stumped as to how the pink mare was able to free herself where as he was almost killed in his rider form. "let's just say that the less you know the better." Pinkie Pie said brushing it off as if it was nothing. "I mean that's the kind of stuff you see in nanga. And that's coming from someone who's seen a god of chaos and shape shifting bugs " "watt you've seen shape shifting bugs?!" Shotaro yelled. He can't believe what he just herded. "ooo look hear comes Lyra," Pinky said completely derailing the conversion about her many adventures with her friends. "Hi Lyra!" "Oh hi Pinkie Pie" Lyra said with a worried expression on her face." Have you seen Bon Bon anywhere? I haven't seen her after last nigh." "are you share she didn't leave you a note and missed it?" Pinkie Pie asked. "No, she said she was coming home after she talked with a customer about a big order of candy" "I see" Shotaro said with a grin and rubbing his chin. "First we find a pony trapped in an ice creme sandwich, then a dopant attacked, now Bon Bon gone" Pinky Pie come up close to Shotaro mimicking him "so what do we do now" "Well first we investigate the crime seen" Shotaro said as he held out his hoof. The mechanical bat from earlier landed on it and ejected a Gaia memory transforming it into a camera." hear Pinky Pie, use this to document the crime seen" Shotaro gave the pink pony the device. "ooo. I've never seen a camera like this before" Pinky said as she took a closer look at the camera. She looked at it at ever angel to see that it was not a typical film camera like the one she uses for scrap booking. It was much more sleeker and smaller. "Okei doki loky. count on me. Pinky Pie away!" She gave a salute and ran back into the shop. Shotaro then turned to the mint green unicorn. "So Lyra was it? Can you tell me anything about Bon Bon or her client?" TTT________TTT In a dark ally in town a mare was standing alone in watt. The mare was a nave blue Pegasus with a silver mane and three heart shaped pieces of candy on her flank. Her only other notable fetter was that she was a bit pudgier then a normal ponies. "Oh where is he?" She asked herself nervously. "I hope you I didn't keep you waiting. Are you enjoying the powers I gave you" a mysterious voice came from the shadows. The figure soon emerged to reveille a grey fared diamond dog. He waked on two lags and had a small amount of black of fur on his head that was a little messy. He wore a black suet with a white handkerchief with a big red dot around his neck. He came closer to the Pegasus. Instead of a lot of grunts and snarls like most diamond dogs he spoke in a gentlemanly tone. " that masked pony didn't cause you any trouble did he" "oh no" the blue mare side nervously. "Next time I see him he'll be nothing but a pice of gum under my hoof" "well as long as Museum gets the data, you can do whatever you want." The diamond dog said coming his fingers threw his hear. He then started to wake away but was interrupted by the mare. "So when's the wedding?" She asked cheerfully. "I hear the cake is to die for and I want some." "I'm sorry but the bride wants to keep it within the family." He responded as he continued to fade into the shadows. "well that's ok. I have three other sweet makers to satisfy me for now. Ha ha ha." To be continued Author's Note I know it's bad. I'm getting it edited as we speak if your interested in fixing my herbal spelling send me a message Stay tune for part 2 Pleas leave a comment to let me know what you think The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a sugar high. Part 2Chapter 4 The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a sugar high I'm not the biggest fan of sweets. Yes I do partake in a slice of cake at parties and I can never have my coffee black but I don't really eat them too often. So to have a suspect target candy and cake maker is one that doesn't hit too close to home. The story Lyra told me shows that she and Bon Bon were vary close. She was so worried for her friend that I had to take her on as a client. I'm still new to the town. Unlike Phillydelphia where I had informants I now need to make new relationships. That what brings me to Golden Oaks Library. TTT_________TTT In the boutique Phillip stood in the middle of the main room with his eyes close. His horn glowing with a green aura with ones and zeros floating into the air. In his mind Phillip was in a void of whitens with countless bookshelf in front of him. One by one books started to disappear and move until one shelf with one white book with pink trim and the word "sweet" on it was left. He use his magic to open the book and began to read it out loud. "Bon Bon,Twist,Sunday,and Ms and Mr Cake. These are the names of the Ponies who's special talents are in making sweets who live in Ponyville." Phillip said with Rarity in the room. "And odds are that whoever attacked us are targeting them." Shotaro said threw the Stag phone. "So what's your next move Shotaro?" Rarity asked as she put away the last of her supplies. "Lyra didn't give me much to go on so I need to talk to someone that knows what's going on. Look for suspicious ponies and ..." Shotaro was cutoff. "Are you talking to Rarity? Hi Rarity! Is Phillip there?" Pinkie Pie yelled into the phone. "Hello Pinkie Pie" Phillip said as he came out of his trans. "Getting back on track I think I know someone who can help. We just arrived at the library." Shotaro said as he pushed Pinkie Pie away from the phone "I don't think reading up on "The Mare in the Lake" will help use at the moment" Rarity said as she picked up the phone with her magic."and I'm pretty shire Twilight isn't available at moment" "Twilight isn't the one I want to talk to." Shotaro said. The sound of a door opening could be herd threw the phone."I'll call you back" Shotaro hung up. A loud tone filled the room. Soon Rarity closed the device and gave it back to Phillip. "Thank you Rarity" Phillip said as he put the stag phone back into his jacket. "I must say Phillip talking to ponies threw this thing is quite fun." Rarity said with a giggle TTT________TTT The door opened to revel Spike. "Hay Shotaro" Spike said as the two earth ponies entered the library. "did you come to pick up those books you were looking at yesterday?" "No Spike" Shotaro answered as he adjusted his hat." We're here to ask you some questions that mite help with a case involving the candy maker Bon Bon" "And I brought cup cakes" Pinkie said as bounced past the two. She stopped and relied that there was another pony in the library. Siting at the table in the middle of the room was a dark blue Pegasus with a heart candy cutie mark reading a cook book on cakes and pastries. "Oh, hi there" The blue mare said as she waved a hoof. Soon Spike and Shotaro's attention were now on her. "If you want me to leave I can" "Oh it's no problem miss..." Shotaro paused to signal that he did not know the Pegasus's name. "That's Sweet Heart. The famines desert critic." Spike said as he came closer to the critic. "She written about all sorts of please .She even did a bin on Donut Joe's in Canterlot. Right now she's writing a review on Sugarcube Corner." "I was, but unfortunately when I got there it was closer and there was a medical cart in front." Sweet Heart said as she closed her book."By the way did you say cup cakes?" She then shot Pinkie Pie a smile. "Oh yes, I thought we'd have theme for lunch."The party pony said putting the box of treats on the table and opening it to reveille a dozen pink and purple frosted cup cakes. "do you want to try one? It would mean so much to me if a real desert expert told me how my famines chary berry cup cakes taste." The sound of Shotaro's stomach rumbling filed the room ."Sorry I still haven't had anything to eat today." Shotaro said smiling embarrassedly. "Can we have the cup cakes now." A few minuets later the three Ponies plus dragon ware siting around the table with a backed good In front of them. "I must say Pinkie Pie these are some of the best cup cakes I've tasted in a long time." Sweet Heart said after taking a small bite. "Agreed" Shotaro said after wiping the frosting off his face. "I don't eat too many sweets but can you please make them for the party." "of cores" Pinkie said ."And thank you for your review Sweet Heart" "So Spike" Shotaro said turning to the scribe ."Did you hear anything suspicious around town today." "Oh yay" Spike said as he finished his treat. "Apparently Twist is missing. Her parents came by earlier looking for her." "I see" Shotaro tuck a pad and pen out and began to write ."Anything else". "I'm sorry guys but I don't know anything else." Spike said nodding. "But I'm not too worried. The kids in this town are always on some sort of adventure" Shotaro then stood up " that's ok Spike you at lease help prove my hunch. Come on Pinkie Pie, we need to find more clues." He then made his way to the door. Pinkie got up and followed the detective." Bye Spike and thank you again Sweet Heart." She waved a hoof and waked out with the detective ."And Spike, make shore Twilight gets a cup cake too" TTT________TTT The two waked down the road. " now we need to think. Who would benefit from all theirs kidnaping." Shotaro paused for a response. "Pinkie Pie?" "oh sorry Sho" Pinky said to the Stalin. "I was thinking of what Phillip mite want to have at the party. Do you think he would like cotton candy?" "I'm not to shore what he likes." Shotaro answered ."In the two years I've known him I never learned what he's into. More to the point we need to find this dopant" all of a sudden the two stopped as a mass of cream formed in front of them into the dopant that attacked them before. "And speak of the devil." Shotaro said with a smile on his face. "Your under arrest. Now come quietly." "Out of my way. The pink one mine" The dopant said. "Not on my watch" the detective said with the double driver around his waist. He then healed the joker memory in his hoofs. "JOKER!" he crossed his lag and yelled "HENSHIN!" soon the cyclone memory appeared in the driver. After both were in pleased he activated the driver. "CYCLONE!JOKER!" A cyclone formed around Shotaro turning him in to Double. He pointed with his hoof and yelled out. "Now Time To Conte Up Your Sins!" He then jumped up in to air on a gust of wind. Both his back hoofs flue into the monster's chest sending it back a few feet. The dopant then pointed the cone at the rider and fired wipe cream. Double dogged by side stepping before kicking the living sweets again. Cream stated to come out of the creature's mouth like before "not this time" The left side then closed the driver. He tuck out the joker memory and replaced it with a new blue memory. He then opened the driver again "CYCLONE!TRIGGER!" The black half turned blue with another strange device on his chest. The right side grabbed the device in his hoof and pointed it at the monster. The Trigger Magnum fired small,green shots of wind causing sparks to fly off the dopant. "Enough, I don't have time for this." The dopant melted into the ground. The rider then lowered his weapon. "Now where is he" "I don't know but we need to find it before..." "HELP!" The two voice's conversation was cut off by a mares cry for help. he turned around to find Pinky Pie being eaten by the monster ."This is my worst and most ironic nightmare come to life!" Pinky yelled as the red, creaked mouth closed. The monster's stomach was enlarged after devouring its victim. It then jumped in to the air. "Pinkie Pie!" The blue half yelled but when he looked around there was no sign of the dopant. Double then closed the driver and removed the two memories ."Don't worry Pinkie Pie, I will find you." Shotaro said as the armor disappeared. He looked down to find a mechanical spider at his hoofs. It crowed on to his lag and Shotaro lifted it up. On what looked to be its thoraces was a blue screen with a map on it and a red dot blinking. TTT________TTT The creator waked in to an abandon house on the outskirts of Ponieville. It entered a messy yet funicular kitchen that had flower and sugar covering the floors in what looked to be a couplet disaster area. The dopant spat out the pink mare. She looked around the room with a scared look on her face. She soon looked at the far wall to find three ponies tide up. One was a light yellow mare with a dark blue and pink mane. Her cutie mark was three piece of candy. Another was a filly with a red cully mane and big thick glasses. Her cutie mark was two candy canes. The last pony was a Stalin with a brown mane and dressed in an apron and paper hat. His mark was a pink frosted donut. "Why am I hear" Pinkie asked as she started shaking in in fear. The dopant stud there for a moment before it started to melt again. But instead of disappearing what was left was the blue Pegasus that she met in the library just a few moments ago. "Sweet Heart!?" "Yes it's me and I'll tell you why your hear." She said in a superior tone. She then waked past Pinky to the window. "I'm sick and tired of making others famous. All my life I always wanted to open my own bakery." "So what stopped you." Pinkie asked. "Thou I am an expert on sweets I am not the best in the kitchen." Cut to Sean of a kitchen exploding. She turned around and showed off a red Gaia memory with a S on it that looked like it was made out of cake ."But with this power and Equestria's most famous sweet makers I can stare my dream bakery right hear. And the first treat I'm going to sell will be your dilatable cup cakes" she said with a intoxicated smile "GORNMO!" The two mares turned around to the window as a stallion crashed threw the glass. The brown, fedora wearing directive stuck up a lag and struck a pose. "No pony will cry as long as I'm around " Sweet Heart face turned to anger as a big smile grew on Pinky's "Shotaro! How did you find me?" "I had a little help from this guy." Shotaro stuck up his fore lag to show off an odd yellow watch. He then put a Gaia memory into the slot. "SPIDER!" The watch then transformed into a spider and crawled away. Pinkie Pie then looked at her back lag to find a small black and blue disk with a blinking light on it. "You won't stop me from achieving my dream." Sweet Heart said as she preset the button on the Gaia memory. "SWEET!" She then put the memory into her neck. The wipe cream covered her body soon transforming her into the sweet dopant. The monster's left arm morphed into a blade. It then began to swing it's arm at Shotaro. Shotaro duked and rolled to avoid the attack. He then grabbed a char tipped over on the floor and smashed it into the dopant's head knocking it back a few feet. He then pleased the driver on his waist. The belt straps wrapped around his body as he held up the joker memory "JOKER!" "HENSHIN" the red heat memory appeared in its slot. The purple memory was pleased into its slot and Shotaro activated the driver. "HEAT!JOKER!" The red and black armor formed around the Stalin. Flames covered his lags before he charade at full speed tackling the dopant out the window. When the dopant hit the ground Double rolled across the filed until he stopped himself with his hind lags. The monster swung it's blade arm again but the masked hero dogged with a back flip. Flames formed around his right lag as he delivered a punch right into the taffy head. Soon both lags where on fire as the dopant was hit with a barge of flaming punches before he deliver one last uppercut that sent the dopant flying. "now lets conte up your crimes" immediately after saying that the black half pulled out the purple memory and dropped it into the black slot on the side of his belt. He then crouched down and pressed the button on the slot "JOKER!MAXIMUM DRIVE!" flames erupted from the silver line that divided the black half from the red half. He then jumped into the aid before both halves split apart "JOKER GERNAD" Both halves flue threw the air as each hit the target with flaming hooks before the two reunited in a fiery explanation. The rider turned and waked away from the blast. Laying in a crater was the sweet critic with a Gaia memory in front of her eyes falling apart. Double soon transformed back to a normal Stalin waking to the broken down house. "are you ok" Shotaro asked as he extended a hoof to help the pink mare up. "I think so" she answered as the detective helped her to her hoofs. At this point Shotaro was able to see that Pinky was in no danger. Her mane was a mess and she was covered in small cuts and bruise but she was ok. "that's good" he said smiling to see his new friend is alright. He then looked down to his spider companion ."Ok little guy ,Go alert the Royal Guards" the spider then started to crow out of the house. "And Pinky Pie, help me get Theas ponies out hear". Soon the two began to untie the captives and tried to wake them up. Shotaro and Pinky Pie then help wake the sweet makers to the hospital. TTT__________TTT faraway from town in the wasteland's underground a meeting was taking please. The underground cave was nicely decorated in tapestries and fancy lanterns. In the middle of cave was a dining room table decorated in a clean ,white table cloth and silver candle holders. Siting around the table enjoying a meal was for fingers. at the head of the table was an older looking diamond dog. He wore a red suit and had tinted glasses on his face. He had shote silver fur on top of his head. He spoke in a deep ,demanding tone. "I will assume that no one had any trouble these last compel of week" he said as he tuck a bit out of a gemstone. "the Gaia memory production is on schedule" another diamond dog replied siting on the left side of the table. This one was a female. She wore a dark murine dress and her hare was in a bun. "and I just soled five more memories in the town of Ponyville." The voice belonged to a male in a suit with a handkerchief with a red dot around his neck siting next to the female. "my radio shoe is doing amazing a always." A girl's voice chimed in. Siting on the right side of the table was not a diamond dog but a white unicorn. Her mane was black and her cutie mark was an amethyst wrapped in a microphone. "Not to mention my big sister is getting marred tomorrow" she said exhaustedly. "ah yes, tomorrow is a time of joy." The old diamond dog said raising a glass." To Saeko and her husband Kirihiko who I'm confined will be a grate asset to our goles and may Celetie know who the true ruler of this worked will be." TTT__________TTT 2 Days later in the boutique Shotaro was on his typewriter finishing his report on the case ...the famed sweet critic was sent to prison for the next year and a half. The young filly Twist was returned to her parents who was happy to see there child safe. Donut Joe wheat back to his shop and even sent us a box of plane sugar donuts as a thank you. Shotaro stops to takes a bite out of a donut before typing again However the real achievement was that Phillip and I was able to protect our new friend Pinky Pie. She may be a bit odd but I'm glad to have met her. She acutely throwing us a welcome party. I wonder how Phillip's going to Handel being the center of attention. Shotaro then turned to see Phillip and Rarity holding there donuts in there magical aura. Soon braking the peaceful tone of the shop was the fireball of energy that was Pinkie Pie. "hello Pinkie Pie" Shotaro said with a smile. "Do you want a donut, there fresh from Cantlot." He ask a he held up a pastry. Pinky just shuck her head to indicate yes before she ate the donut right out of his hoof. "Pinky pie I headed what happened, are you ok?" Rarity ask as she pleased a hoof on her friend. "I'm fine Rarity, thaw I did need to take a bath afterward" the pink mare said. "But I'm hear for one very important thing" her eyes narrowed." Phillip!" She then turned and pointed at the surprised gray unicorn. "We need to take about your half of the welcome party." "Uh what!?" Phillip said as what the party planer said cote him off guard. "I mean I know what Shotaro likes, he's a hardboiled detective after all." "thank you" Shotaro interrupted "but now I need to get to know you" "that's very kind of you but you see..." Phillip turned around and ran to his room. "oh no you don't" the pink pony leaped threw the air and tackled him. Shotaro and Rarity laugh at the sight in front of them. Author's Note I'm looking for an editor. I'm really hatting writing the next chapter. it's going to be much different then what we've seem before. like always I'm open to suggestions. please leave a comment to let me know what you think. it means a lot to me
The mystery begins/Enter W. Part 1Chapter 1 The Mystery begins/Enter W. Part 1 It's been two years since The Boss kicked it. I’ve been doing my part in keeping the peace here in Phillydelphia. It’s been quiet the last couple of weeks until that letter showed up. At first I thought it was just junk mail. But that was before I saw the royal seal on it. It was addressed to The Boss, but since he isn't with us anymore, I’m the next in line to take his responsibilities. Apparently the Princess needs the Boss’s expertize in odd phenomenon in a small town called Ponyville. Since it was the Princess I had no choice in the mater. Looks like me and Phillip have some work to do. TTT______TTT In Golden Oaks library, Twilight was helping Rarity make fliers. The fliers were for a room Rarity was renting out. Since her parents were on a year long trip overseas she thought it would be a good idea to rent out their room to make some extra money. With their permission of course. As the two unicorns finished the last of the fliers Twilight looked at Rarity. “Are you sure it’s safe to allow a stranger to sleep in your house.” Twilight ask with concern for her friend. “Why certainly darling” Rarity replied casually. “I am a grown mare and I am more than capable of taking care of myself and my sister” “Ok if you say so. Oh I almost forgot. I need to get to the train station soon.” Twilight looked at the clock to see it was a quarter to three. “May I ask why?” Twilight trotted to the desk and picked up a scroll with her magic. “I got a letter this morning from the Princess. She wants me to deliver this to somepony who is coming to town at three o clock”. Just then Spike burst through the door out of breath yelling “Twilight!” “What’s wrong Spike?“ Twilight asked with concern in her voice Trying to pull himself together Spike answered. “It was a fire in the town square again.” “That’s the second one this month” Twilight added “Please don’t tell me it was another boutique” Rarity asked in a dramatic tone almost fainting. “Yeah it was that new shop Squarestitch’s Dresses” Spike answered. “But don’t worry nopony got hurt” “Oh my” Rarity exclaimed in shock. “Well that’s good that nopony got hurt, anyway we need to get going. Are you coming Rarity” Twilight ask waking to the door. “Why of course darling” she said as the three headed to the train station. TTT_____TTT At the train station the passengers waked onto the platform. Twilight and her friends saw all the ponies entering town. All of a sudden two stallions showed up in front of the three. One was a light brown earth pony with a dark brown mane. He wore a purple button down shirt and tie under a vest. He also wore a black fedora and his cutie mark was an odd black symbol that looked like half of a W “Hello, I’m looking for a 'Ms. Twilight Sparkle'?” “Um, yes that me” she said nervously. “Are you the one that the Princess told me to find”. “Why yes. My name is Shotaro and this is my partner Phillip”. Shotaro then pointed to a gray unicorn with a black mane. He wore a long-sleeved shirt with yellow and white stripes under a green sleeveless jacket. He had three binder clips in his mane and the same odd symbol as a cutie mark but it was green and reversed. He said nothing as he continued to read his book. “Hello Mr. Shotaro since you know who I am let me introduce my friends, Spike and Rarity,” she said as she pointed to the purple dragon and the white unicorn. Rarity looked at the earth pony’s outfit. “May I say Mr. Shotaro your outfit look positively marvelous.” “Thank you. I do try my best to look hardboiled,” after saying that Shotaro adjusted his hat. “Oh, I also have this letter for you” Twilight then levitated the letter from Spike’s claws. “Thank you,” Shotaro grabbed the letter from the unicorn’s magic and put it in to a vest pocket. “If you don’t mind I’d like to continue this somewhere more private.” “We can go to the library,” Twilight offered with a smile on her face “Perfect” Shotaro said. Phillip’s eyes lit up at the word library. “Looks like Phillip is on board.” The five then left the station and made their way toward the library. The group walked down Main Street. Twilight tried to look over Phillip’s shoulder to see what he was reading but her efforts failed. Spike shot Shotaro a cold look as Rarity was having a conversation with him on his outfit. Shotaro stopped all of a sudden and looked at the charred remands of a store. “What happened there?” he asked his purple maned companion. “Oh my. That use to be Madame Hatter’s hat shop. Unfortunately it burned down a couple of weeks ago.” “Has anything else like this happened lately?” “Yeah. A dress shop burned down just this morning,” Spike said “I see,” Shotaro put a hoof to his chin to think. “Phillip. You, Twilight, and Spike head back to the library. Me and Rarity will investigate the scene. If that’s okay with you ladies,” he said. “No problem,” Twilight said. “Why of course darling,” Rarity responded in her lady like fashion. “Hey!” Spike objected. “I’m not going to let you take my dear Rarity!” Spike said balling his fists. Shotaro chuckled and patted the young dragon on the head. “Relax little guy. I’m not going to steal her. I just need her as a guide. Besides, it looks like Twilight is more interested in my partner,” he said pointing at Twilight still trying to see what Phillip was reading. “Fine,” Spike huffed as he followed Phillip and Twilight back to library. “Well then” Shotaro said adjusting his hat. “Let’s get started” TTT_____TTT After a few minutes of looking through the burnt rubble, Shotaro managed to find nothing but odd, black rocks that seemed to generate heat. “This is weird,” he said to himself. “What is?” Rarity asked looking at the rock in his hoof. “This rock is still warm after all this time, and it's been a couple of weeks since the fire,” he said rubbing his chin in thought. "What does that mean?" "I don't know, but maybe my partner does." Shotaro then pulled a strange device out of his vest and flipped it open. On one side it had numbers and the other had a strange glow on it. Rarity watched as he pressed the numbers with his hoofs before putting the devise to his ear. "Hello, Phillip." TTT______TTT At the library, Twilight was drinking tea that Spike had made for her. Phillip was on the couch reading his book, oblivious to the world around him. After several attempts to spark a conversation with Phillip, Twilight decided to give up and just leave him alone. All of a sudden a ringing sound was heard coming from Phillip's jacket. He pulled out a strange device, flipped it open, and put it to his ear. Twilight looked at Phillip wondering what it was he was talking into. He soon pressed a button and placed the device on the table. He stood up and closed his eyes. A faint, almost otherworldly light began to glow around him "Ok, I'm ready." " First word: Heat," Shotaro's voice said from the device. Twilight was shocked to hear Shotaro through the object on the table. She didn't know what it was or what kind of magic Phillip was using. After a few seconds he spoke again. "Okay, next word." Shotaro's voice continued "Second word: Black rock." "What the hay is going on here?" Twilight yelled trying to get an answer from the unicorn. Phillip ignored her and continued with his conversation. "I need more information." TTT______TTT Shotaro looked around the pile of rubble until a burnt hat caught his eye. He picked it up and looked inside. He read the tag. It said "Golden Thread Designs". He turned to Rarity and showed her the hat. "Do you know who this is?" Shotaro asked. Rarity took a closer look at the hat before gasping "Oh my, this is one of Golden Thread's. She's only the biggest up-in-coming designer in Canterlot. I just got a few of her works in this morning. And if I remember correctly so did Square Stitch." "BINGO" Shotaro said as he resumed his conversation with Phillip. "Ok third word; Golden Thread" after a few minuets Shotaro closed the device and looked back at Rarity. "Do know where Carousel Boutique is? We need to get there now." Rarity looked puzzled as she answered "Why of course. I am the owner after all. Why do you ask?" "I'll explain on the way but we need to go now." he said as the two began running toward Carousel Boutique. TTT______TTT As the two closed in on the building the image of a mysterious pony came into view. Shotaro stopped a few feet in front of the light tan stallion. "Stop! Your under arrest!" he yelled while pointing in a dramatic pose. "You're here to stop my vision?" The mysteries pony said in a low voice. "Just like those idiots in Canterlot. But they'll pay. You'll all pay" he then pulled out a strange red rectangle with a M on it. The M looked as if it was a volcano. He pressed a button on the rectangle. A voice came from it. "MAGMA!" He then put the rectangle on a mark on his foreleg. The rectangle disappeared into his arm as his body began to transform. He soon became a tall, two legged creature. He had two arms and was covered in armor that looked like rock and lava. Flame cascaded around it's body. "Oh my Celestia what is that!?" Rarity screamed as she fainted onto a couch that suddenly appeared out of nowhere. “It's a Dopant," Shotaro said. He then stood up on his hind legs and pulled out another strange device. It was red and silver with two slots on it. He put the device on his waist and it unfolded into a belt. Shotaro then pulled out a rectangle that looked like the one the Dopant used. Only this one was purple and had a stylized J on it .He pressed the button and the voice shouted. "JOKER!" He then crossed his left hoof over his chest and yelled out "HENSHIN!" TTT_______TTT In the library, the same device showed up out of nowhere around Phillip's waist. He sighed and closed his book. "Looks like they're in trouble," he said. "What was that? Did you say something Phillip" Twilight said looking at her house guest. "Don't worry about it Ms. Sparkle." He then pulled out a green rectangle with a stylized C on it. He pressed the button. "CYCLONE!" He then crossed his right hoof over his chest and said. "HENSHIN!" "What is that?" Twilight asked. But before he could answer he put the rectangle into one of the slots on the device. The rectangle disappeared and Phillip fell unconscious. "Oh my Celestia. Phillip are you okay?" She ran in a panic to his body to make sure he was alright. TTT______TTT The green rectangle appeared in the slot on Shotaro's belt. He pushed it in to place before putting his in to the other slot. He then crossed his hoofs to make the belt look like a W and the voice called out again. “CYCLONE! JOKER!” A cyclone formed around Shotaro. Rarity looked in awe as armor formed around the stallion. Soon in his place was a pony covered in armor. Half was green and the other was black. He had no mane but his tail was silver. He had on a helmet with the same dual color scheme with red, bug like visors where his eye should have been. On his flank was what looked like both Shotaro's and Phillip's cutie marks put together. The warrior then struck a pose and said in both Shotaro's and Phillip's voice "Now, time to count up your sins!" Author's Note Stay tuned for part 2 Just reedited thanks to BladeSpark
The mystery begins/Enter W. Part2Chapter 2 The mystery begins/Enter W. Part 2 Kamen Rider. A name given to the heroes who fight for Justice. The few who would put there lives on the line to protect the innocent. These masked warriors ride into battle regardless of the danger. The title of Kamen Rider goes back far beyond the time before the two sister Princesses came to power. There stores have been told throughout the ages. I am only half of one of these heroes. I am half of Kamen Rider W TTT_____TTT The masked warrior stared down the magma monster as he stood for a few seconds after saying his line in a fighting stance. He charged at full speed towards the monster before delivering a few light jabs. The monster swung his arms to attack but the warrior dodged and countered with a roundhouse kick. The monster stumbled back. He started to fire magma balls at the armored pony but he evaded the projectiles until one hit and knocked him to the ground. The monster then turned his attention towards Rarity who was still amazed at the battle in front of her. The monster started to form a larger magma ball and aimed it at Rarity. "Shotaro, Rarity's in trouble!" Phillip's voice side as the red eye plate on the right side of the helmet lit up "Don't worry. We can handle it," Shotaro's voice replied. He got back up and closed the belt. He replaced the rectangles with ones that were red and silver. He then crossed his hoofs like before and the belt yelled out. "HEAT!METAL! The two halves changed colors. The green half was now red and the black half was silver with a strange rod on his back. He then ran at full speed to intercept the lava ball. He stood in front of Rarity as he pulled out the rod. The rod then extended into a bow staff and started to spin to break up the lava ball. Rarity was still in amazement as to what she was watching. "Are you alright?" Shotaro asked as Rarity stood speechless and her pupils grew to the size of pin holes. "Don't worry I'll explain everything later" The Dopant began charging at the two. Flames formed around the Metal Shaft as the warrior ran and stopped the attack. He then jump kicked the crater in the Dopant's head and sent it flying back a distance. He then began to hit the Dopant with the flaming rod. "Let's end this thing now." The two voice said. He then closed the belt and replaced the two rectangles with the ones he used at the beginning of the battle. He then opened it back into the W shape "CYCLONE!JOKER!" With the two sides returning back to green and black the armored pony removed the purple rectangle and placed it into a black slot on the side of the belt. The belt cried out again. "JOKER!MAXIMUM DRIVE!" A cyclone formed as he was lifted in to the air. When he was high enough he hit a button on the slot and began to fly straight towards the Dopant. Halfway the pony began to split in two as both voices yelled out. "JOKER XTREME!" A cyclone formed around the green half pushing the black half until both kicks hit the monster. Rarity's jaw dropped as the two halves reunited into one pony. The hero turned around away from the Dopant as he exploded. As the flames cleared, the tan, blond haired stallion fell to the ground. The mysterious rectangle came out of him and flew through the air before falling apart in front of Rarity's hooves. The armored pony closed the belt and pulled out the two rectangles. A second later the armor disappeared leaving behind the fedora wearing detective. Rarity shook her head to snap herself out of the shock of seeing something so amazing before running towards Shotaro. "What in Celestia's name was that!? Who is that stallion!? How did that armor appear on you!? Why where you speaking in two voices!?" Shotaro adjusted his hat before looking at Rarity. "I can't explain everything now but I can tell you who he is. His name is Needle Point, a designer from Canterlot who was going to be the next big thing. That was until Golden Thread stepped up and stole his spotlight. He was so consumed with jealousy that he used the Gaia Memory to burn down any business that sold her clothing. It's a shame too, my favorite hat is a Golden Thread original." "Oh my, I can't believe that somepony wold do such a foul act of violence" Rarity said. "By the way, thank you for saving my life." "It was no trouble at all. We'll head back to the library as soon as I contact the Royal Guards nearby to pick this guy up." Shotaro said as he pulled out the device that he used to talk to Phillip earlier. "By the way I've been meaning to ask. What is that thing?" "It's a Stag Phone." Shotaro answered. "It's one of Phillip's invention. It has two uses. One is to allow me to talk to anypony who has another one anywhere in the world. And I was just about to show you the second one." Shotaro then pulled out another Gaia Memory only this one was different. It wasn't as sleek as the ones he used in battle and was covered in exposed machine parts. Instead of a stylized letter it had an image of a stag beetle. He put the memory into a slot at the bottom of the phone. The voice that came from it was different too. "STAG!" In a matter of seconds the phone transformed into a mechanical beetle. It floated in the air before flying off into the sky. "Well then, since that's taken care, of let's get going." The two began to wake towards the library. TTT_______TTT In the library Twilight was in a frenzy. In her hooves was the unconscious unicorn that she just met. She sent Spike out to go find help but Twilight was worried that something really bad had happened to Phillip. "This is bad, really really bad. What am I going to do? There's a stallion laying lifeless on my floor and I have no idea what's wrong with him. Maybe if I use that defibrillator spell I learned last week it'll wake him up." With few options left, Twilight's horn began to glow with magic. After a few seconds Phillip's eyes sprang open. "Clear!" Twilight yelled out "No, wait Twilight I..." But before Phillip could finish he was electrocuted by Twilight's magic. "AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Phillip was flung across the room hitting a book shelf, causing the book on top to fall on to him. "Oh my goodness! Phillip are you alright?" Twilight ran to help the gray unicorn up. He dusted himself off and looked back at the librarian. "I am so sorry. I didn't mean to make the spell that powerful." "Don't worry about it. I've lived through worst." Phillip replied. "The work me and Shotaro do can get pretty dangerous." "By the way, why are you two here? I mean if Princess Celestia called you it must be important." "I don't know. The letter we got only told us to come to Ponyville and look for a lavender unicorn with a star cutie mark. I guess all the information on the job is in that scroll that you gave Shotaro." After mentioning his name the door opened. Standing outside were Shotaro, Rarity, Spike, and nurse Red Heart. Rarity ran straight through the doorway eager to tell her friend about what just happened to her." Twilight you simply must have been there. There was this monster and Shotaro turned into a armored pony which by the way I find his design tacky. Not a big fan of the hole half and half look..." "Ahem" nurse Red Heart interrupted with a pissed off face. "I was told that there was an unconscious pony." "Oh yeah. He got better" Twilight said with a nervous smile on her face. Nurse Redheart sighed and face-hoofed "I hope you realize that you pulled me away from some very important work." "But when I got to the hospital I saw you reading a magazine." Spike said The nurse stood still for a moment. "I need to back to the hospital." And then she bulleted out of the library. "I think it's time we explain everything Phillip" Shotaro said. TTT________TTT The four ponies sat around the table. Spike was serving tea as Shotaro and Phillip finished telling the two mares about the Gaia Memories and about Kamen Rider W. They told the two that the Gaia Memories are an ancient magic dating back to before Equestria was founded. Nobody knows who or what created them but they disappeared when Celestia's and Luna's mother joined forces with the first Kamen Rider, a pony named Ichigo. But recently the Gaia Memories started to show up again. "So let me get this straight. You two use this "Driver" thing to send Phillip's mind into Shotaro's body and then you become this Kamen Rider guy?" Twilight said trying to grasp what the two stallions told her. "Well it's more complicated than that but yes" Phillip said as he lifted the cup of tea with his magic. "And what's with those Dopant things?" Rarity asked as she taking a sip of her tea. "Any creature who uses a Gaia Memory transforms into a Dopant and are not only a danger to others but themselves as well." Shotaro answered. "Oh I almost forgot the letter" he pulled out the scroll out of his pocket. "What does it say?" The young dragon asked "Hold on. Let me read it first."Shotaro said. He started to read the letter outloud. TTT________TTT Dear Sokichi It's been a while since we last spoke. How's that young colt that follows you around? Anyway it has come to my attention that Gaia Memories have started to reemerge. The Royal Guards have manage to track the distributor to Ponyville. Normally I would send my student and her friends to handle this problem but I fear that this is too dangerous for them. That is why I ask you to come to this town. I need you to find and stop whoever is responsible for causing so much terror. My student and her friends shall help you in any way they can. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get you any housing. Sorry Princess Celestia TT_______TTT "So even the Princess knows about this problem. I should have guessed she would know." Shotaro said as he put the letter down."I just didn't know that she knew the boss so well." "Who is this Sokichi?" Twilight asked "He was my mentor." Shotaro said as he took off his hat "He taught me everything I know about being a hard boiled detective. Unfortunately he's left us two years ago." "I'm so sorry for your loss." Rarity said."You know after everything that has happened today and the fact that you and Phillip are homeless I'm willing to offer you the room that I’m renting out. After all you did save my life." Rarity said. "That is very generous of you Rarity, thank you," Shotaro said. At that moment Rarity got two new housemates and Ponyville got a new hero. To be continued Author's Note Big thank to BladeSpark for editing At this point I feel I can take about the story a little. You mite be wondering why Phillip is a unicorn. It's become I said so, and for what's to come later in the story. I also want to say that the next few chapters will be devoted to introducing the mane 6. I will get to Museum soon after. Stay tune for "The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a sugar heigh" Pleas leave a comment to let me know what you think
The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a Sugar high part 1Chapter 3 The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a sugar high. Part 1 It's bin a week since we came to town. Thanks to Rarity's generosity we now have a roof over our heads and a bass of oppressions. The rent is reasonable, just 200 bits a month. Much cheaper then the apartment in Phillydelphia. Not to mention the new landlady doesn't hit me over the head with a slipper. All that a side the detective agency is up and running and all that's left is to find some cases. Ponyville is now under my watch. TTT________TTT Shotaro finished typing on his bemire typewriter in his new room at Creosol Boutique. It was a larger room with lavender walls. It hade a desk, two twin beds with dark purple bed sheets, a small two pony coach, and a hat rake with two hats on it. Shotaro got up out of his chair and waked torus the door levying the room and grabbing one of the hats off the hat rake. He waked down the hall leading to the boutique part of the building. As he entered the room he had to put his hoof over his mouth to contain his laughter."may I ask what you two are doing?"Shotaro said with a uncontrolled grin on his face. Standing in front of him was Phillip wearing a green and pink ball gown as Rarity worked on it wearing red work glasses. "Oh his just helping me with one of my orders. I'd usually ask Rainbow Dash to model for me but I can't find her anywhere" the dress maker side TTT_______TTT at Sweet Apple Akers Applejack waked into the barn with a cart of apples. as she entered threw the doors she nodes a small pile of hay shaking in the corner. Applejack looked behind the pile to find Rainbow Dash hiding. "Let me gauss, Rarity wants ya to model for her" she asked with an emotionless face. Rainbow Dash just nodded. " Alright ya can stay" Applejack side as she got back to work. "Do you need anything wile I'm here?" She ask as she stated to waked out of the barn. "Yay, a quoit of cider and the new Daring Do book, I'm planning to stay hear a wile." TTT________TTT "If you laugh I swear to Luna I'm going to buck you right in the face!" Phillip throated with a still face. "Don't be angry Phillip you look absolutely fabulous." Rarity said." Not to mention you have the same body type as my friend Fluttershy. Minus the wings." Phillip didn't know whether to take that as an insult or a complement. Shotaro managed to stop laughing but still a goofy smile. "Ok then, I'm going to the library to see if thad have any hard boiled detective novels." Shotaro side as he headed torus the door." Do you need anything wile I'm out." As he reached for the doorknob he was interrupted by the door opining and hitting him in the face. A pink blear ran in to the boutique and tackled Rarity. "RRRAAARITY!!!" What was siting on top of Rarity was a pink earth pony with a slitty darker pink curly mane and three balloons as a cutie mark. "Pinkie Pie calm down and tell me what's wrong." Rarity asked as she got up off the floor. Pinky Pie tuck a deep before explaining her situation. " I woke up early today after my reoccurring dream about how I became Princesses of candy land. I wheat down to the kitchen and I couldn't find Mr. or Miss Cake anywhere. So I when to the kids room to see if they where ok and they where gone too. And I'm afraid something really bad happened to them So I asked Applejack to help but she had work, Twilight and Fluttershy had errands, and I can't find Rainbow Dash anywhere. So can you pleas help me. Ooo who's your new friend?" Pinky Pie broke out of her panic as her attention was now on the dress wherein unicorn. "This is Phillip." Rarity answered. " him and his friend Shotaro are new to Ponyville and are renting a room in the boutique." "Wait there are two new Ponies in Ponyville" Pinky side with enthusiasm. "That means that I need to throw a welcome to Ponyville party!" she side giggling with excitement." No a double welcome party! But first I need to find the Cakes" "Maybe Shotaro can help. After all he is a detective" side Rarity. "That's perfect. Where is he?" Rarity just pointed to the doorway.Pinky waked to the door and closed it to revel Shotaro knocked out on the floor. He then got up and started his tie. "Smooth move Half-boiled." Phillip said with a smug look on his face. "Shut up Phillip you know I hate that nickname" "So will you help me Mr.Shotaro?" Pinky Pie asked. "You just hit me in the face!" Shotaro side rubbing his noes. "And I'm really really sorry" Pinky said with the most apologetic smile. "well this dose sound series. Ok you will be my first case in Ponyville" "Yay!!!" Pinkie Pie then grabbed Shotaro and dashed out the door. Phillip and Rarity just stud there trying to proses what just happened. "Why do I have the feeling that something vary off about her?" Phillip asked. Rarity responded "I have that feeling all the time." TTT_______TTT Pinky Pie dragged Shotaro all the way to Sugar Cube Corner. Shotaro searched the please top to bottom for any clues that mite lead him to what happened to the family. "There no sign of a frost entry or a struggle. I also couldn't find anything that can tell me who the culprit is" Shotaro tolled Pinkie Pie in the kitchen. "So whoever did this must be a real master mind." Pinkie side with her most series face. "I'm ready to do everything in my power to find them." Pinky then slammed one of her hoofs into the other. After that statement a piece of paper on the refrigerator caught Shotaro's eye. He grabbed the paper and read it silently. "I think we just solved this mystery" "really who did it?" Pinkie asked. Shotaro then handed her the letter. She started to read it. Dear Pinkie Pie. Me and Ms.Cake have taken the kids to see there grandparents. Pleas take care of the shop for us wile were gone. We'll be back the day after tomorrow. Don't eat the inter bakery. Mr. Cake "I'm sorry Pinkie Pie but it looks like you just overreacted when you missed the note." Shotaro side with a kind smile. "Oh that's ok now I can focus on planning yours and Phillip's double Pinkie welcome party!" The party planer said happy that her second family was safe. "By the way, what is a double Pinkie welcome party?" "Well you see whenever a new pony comes to Ponyville I throw them a huge welcome party so that they can meet everyone and make friends and since there are two of you that means everything needs to be doubled. I wonder how that will work." "Well I can't wait to meet everyone." Shotaro side. All of a sudden a loud rumbling coming from Shotaro's stomach." Well I guess it almost lunchtime. Do you know where I can get a good sandwich?" "Boy do I!" Side Pinkie Pie. The two headed to the back door when out of nowhere Shotaro slipped and fell to the floor. When he got up he found a white, brown, and pink puddle coming from the door that leads to the front of the bakery. "What is this?" The brown pony asked. He then dipped his hoof into the puddle. Pinky Pie took a closer look at the puddle. She sniffed it before tasting it. "It's ice cream!" Pinkie Pie yelled excitedly. "Ice cream?" Shotaro questioned. He then licked the brown liquid on his hoof. "It is ice cream. And it's coming from the store front." The two entered the store to find something shocking. In front of them was a brownish yellow pony trapped in a giant ice cream sandwich. "What happened hear?" The pink pony asked. After saying that a big blast of wipe cream hit her, sticking her to the wall. "Pinkie Pie, are you ok?" "This is amazing!" She replied as she began to lick her sugary bonds. How can I not be ok? I'm covered in wipe cream!" "What are you doing hear? I thought this place was closes." A mysteries voice said. Shotaro turned his herd to the see who it was. In the doorway was a large creature. It looked like it was made out of sweets with a wired blend of red, yellow, and green. It had a red cone for a head with two misshapen eyes. On it's left arm was a green cone with red and yellow strips. "So your the one responsible for this." The detective side in a cool tone. "Do you mind clueing us in to what happened hear." "All I wanted was something sweet. Unfortunately Sunday hear wasn't willing to cooperate ." The Dopant Responded. "We'll I can't just let you tern the citizens of Ponyville into desserts now can I " Shotaro said as he pleased the doable driver on his waist. "And what are you going to do about it" "Do what I do best. Be hard-boiled." The rider pulled out the Joker memory and pressed the button. "JOKER!" He then crossed his hoof over his chest "HENSHEN!" TTT ________TTT Back at the bouquet. Phillip was free from the dress makers grasp and back into his normal close. He was reading his book in the kitchen as Rarity sat across the table eating her lunch of a dandelion salad. "Are you shore you don't want anything?" Rarity asked "I'm good" There was a pause before Rarity spoke "I can see you really love books. Almost as much as Twilight" "Well I do have a library in my head" "pardon!" Phillip put his book down and looked at Rarity. "The Gaia library. It's an ability I have that let's me accuse all the knowledge in the world. That's how I knew that Needle point was coming hear. If I have the keywords I can lookup anything." "Wow that's incredible! I bet that Twilight wood love to learn that spell." "It not magic. I'm not too share what it is myself." all of a sudden the double driver appeared on Phillip "Dose that mean that Shotaro in trouble?" Rarity asked. "Looks like it" Phillip then pulled out his cyclone memory and pressed the button. "CYCLONE!" he crossed his hoof over his chest "HENSHEN!" He put the memory into the slot, as it disappeared Phillip fell to the floor. Rarity picked him up using her magic and pleased him on the couch. "Note to self. Get Phillip his own fainting couch." TTT_______TTT Shotaro pushed the cyclone memory in to place. He then pleased in the joker memory and crossed his hoofs to activate the double driver "CYCLONE!JOKER!" as the duel colored armer formed around Shotaro. Pinkie's eyes widened. In all her life she never thought that she'd see something like this "Now time to conteup your sins." After saying that the rider then bucked the monster out the door way and into the street. "What is that thing? A candy monster." The left side side as the warrior waked out the saloon styled doors. "do not call me a monster. Ponies like you don't understand the fine art that goes into crafting delectable sweets." But Double ignored the dopant as he continued to attack by unleashing a few powerful kicks. Wipe cream started to spew out of the living candy's month covering Double's hyena lags. It soon herded trapping the rider in his tracks. The dopant shot more of the cement like substances only for it to be blocked by Double's right foreleg. "Looks like this is a sticky situation." Shotaro said. "This is no time for bad puns. I can't activate the heat memory" Phillip yelled. "well I can still do this." The left side then pulled out the joker memory and replaced it with the metal memory. "CYCLONE!METAL!" The left side soon changed to silver and extended the metal shaft. A mechanical bat came out of nowhere and attached itself to the metal shaft. It then began to flap it's wings and make a high pitch noses. The sound waves started to brake up the cement cream. Now freed, Double swung the rod to fire blades of wined at the dopant. "forget this. I have bigger gummy fish to fry" damaged and frustrated the creature melted into cream and disappear into the ground. "Looks like I solved one mystery only to be thrown into another" "I'll do a keyword search when I get back."Phillip side "Oh my gosh that was awesome!" Pinkie yelled as she bounced up to the half and half hero. "You didn't tell me that you where a super hero!" "How did you get out of the wipe cream? That stuff was as hard as a rock." Double closed the driver to undo the transformation. Shotaro was stumped as to how the pink mare was able to free herself where as he was almost killed in his rider form. "let's just say that the less you know the better." Pinkie Pie said brushing it off as if it was nothing. "I mean that's the kind of stuff you see in nanga. And that's coming from someone who's seen a god of chaos and shape shifting bugs " "watt you've seen shape shifting bugs?!" Shotaro yelled. He can't believe what he just herded. "ooo look hear comes Lyra," Pinky said completely derailing the conversion about her many adventures with her friends. "Hi Lyra!" "Oh hi Pinkie Pie" Lyra said with a worried expression on her face." Have you seen Bon Bon anywhere? I haven't seen her after last nigh." "are you share she didn't leave you a note and missed it?" Pinkie Pie asked. "No, she said she was coming home after she talked with a customer about a big order of candy" "I see" Shotaro said with a grin and rubbing his chin. "First we find a pony trapped in an ice creme sandwich, then a dopant attacked, now Bon Bon gone" Pinky Pie come up close to Shotaro mimicking him "so what do we do now" "Well first we investigate the crime seen" Shotaro said as he held out his hoof. The mechanical bat from earlier landed on it and ejected a Gaia memory transforming it into a camera." hear Pinky Pie, use this to document the crime seen" Shotaro gave the pink pony the device. "ooo. I've never seen a camera like this before" Pinky said as she took a closer look at the camera. She looked at it at ever angel to see that it was not a typical film camera like the one she uses for scrap booking. It was much more sleeker and smaller. "Okei doki loky. count on me. Pinky Pie away!" She gave a salute and ran back into the shop. Shotaro then turned to the mint green unicorn. "So Lyra was it? Can you tell me anything about Bon Bon or her client?" TTT________TTT In a dark ally in town a mare was standing alone in watt. The mare was a nave blue Pegasus with a silver mane and three heart shaped pieces of candy on her flank. Her only other notable fetter was that she was a bit pudgier then a normal ponies. "Oh where is he?" She asked herself nervously. "I hope you I didn't keep you waiting. Are you enjoying the powers I gave you" a mysterious voice came from the shadows. The figure soon emerged to reveille a grey fared diamond dog. He waked on two lags and had a small amount of black of fur on his head that was a little messy. He wore a black suet with a white handkerchief with a big red dot around his neck. He came closer to the Pegasus. Instead of a lot of grunts and snarls like most diamond dogs he spoke in a gentlemanly tone. " that masked pony didn't cause you any trouble did he" "oh no" the blue mare side nervously. "Next time I see him he'll be nothing but a pice of gum under my hoof" "well as long as Museum gets the data, you can do whatever you want." The diamond dog said coming his fingers threw his hear. He then started to wake away but was interrupted by the mare. "So when's the wedding?" She asked cheerfully. "I hear the cake is to die for and I want some." "I'm sorry but the bride wants to keep it within the family." He responded as he continued to fade into the shadows. "well that's ok. I have three other sweet makers to satisfy me for now. Ha ha ha."

The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a sugar high. Part 2Chapter 4 The pink mare's sweet tooth/One hell of a sugar high I'm not the biggest fan of sweets. Yes I do partake in a slice of cake at parties and I can never have my coffee black but I don't really eat them too often. So to have a suspect target candy and cake maker is one that doesn't hit too close to home. The story Lyra told me shows that she and Bon Bon were vary close. She was so worried for her friend that I had to take her on as a client. I'm still new to the town. Unlike Phillydelphia where I had informants I now need to make new relationships. That what brings me to Golden Oaks Library. TTT_________TTT In the boutique Phillip stood in the middle of the main room with his eyes close. His horn glowing with a green aura with ones and zeros floating into the air. In his mind Phillip was in a void of whitens with countless bookshelf in front of him. One by one books started to disappear and move until one shelf with one white book with pink trim and the word "sweet" on it was left. He use his magic to open the book and began to read it out loud. "Bon Bon,Twist,Sunday,and Ms and Mr Cake. These are the names of the Ponies who's special talents are in making sweets who live in Ponyville." Phillip said with Rarity in the room. "And odds are that whoever attacked us are targeting them." Shotaro said threw the Stag phone. "So what's your next move Shotaro?" Rarity asked as she put away the last of her supplies. "Lyra didn't give me much to go on so I need to talk to someone that knows what's going on. Look for suspicious ponies and ..." Shotaro was cutoff. "Are you talking to Rarity? Hi Rarity! Is Phillip there?" Pinkie Pie yelled into the phone. "Hello Pinkie Pie" Phillip said as he came out of his trans. "Getting back on track I think I know someone who can help. We just arrived at the library." Shotaro said as he pushed Pinkie Pie away from the phone "I don't think reading up on "The Mare in the Lake" will help use at the moment" Rarity said as she picked up the phone with her magic."and I'm pretty shire Twilight isn't available at moment" "Twilight isn't the one I want to talk to." Shotaro said. The sound of a door opening could be herd threw the phone."I'll call you back" Shotaro hung up. A loud tone filled the room. Soon Rarity closed the device and gave it back to Phillip. "Thank you Rarity" Phillip said as he put the stag phone back into his jacket. "I must say Phillip talking to ponies threw this thing is quite fun." Rarity said with a giggle TTT________TTT The door opened to revel Spike. "Hay Shotaro" Spike said as the two earth ponies entered the library. "did you come to pick up those books you were looking at yesterday?" "No Spike" Shotaro answered as he adjusted his hat." We're here to ask you some questions that mite help with a case involving the candy maker Bon Bon" "And I brought cup cakes" Pinkie said as bounced past the two. She stopped and relied that there was another pony in the library. Siting at the table in the middle of the room was a dark blue Pegasus with a heart candy cutie mark reading a cook book on cakes and pastries. "Oh, hi there" The blue mare said as she waved a hoof. Soon Spike and Shotaro's attention were now on her. "If you want me to leave I can" "Oh it's no problem miss..." Shotaro paused to signal that he did not know the Pegasus's name. "That's Sweet Heart. The famines desert critic." Spike said as he came closer to the critic. "She written about all sorts of please .She even did a bin on Donut Joe's in Canterlot. Right now she's writing a review on Sugarcube Corner." "I was, but unfortunately when I got there it was closer and there was a medical cart in front." Sweet Heart said as she closed her book."By the way did you say cup cakes?" She then shot Pinkie Pie a smile. "Oh yes, I thought we'd have theme for lunch."The party pony said putting the box of treats on the table and opening it to reveille a dozen pink and purple frosted cup cakes. "do you want to try one? It would mean so much to me if a real desert expert told me how my famines chary berry cup cakes taste." The sound of Shotaro's stomach rumbling filed the room ."Sorry I still haven't had anything to eat today." Shotaro said smiling embarrassedly. "Can we have the cup cakes now." A few minuets later the three Ponies plus dragon ware siting around the table with a backed good In front of them. "I must say Pinkie Pie these are some of the best cup cakes I've tasted in a long time." Sweet Heart said after taking a small bite. "Agreed" Shotaro said after wiping the frosting off his face. "I don't eat too many sweets but can you please make them for the party." "of cores" Pinkie said ."And thank you for your review Sweet Heart" "So Spike" Shotaro said turning to the scribe ."Did you hear anything suspicious around town today." "Oh yay" Spike said as he finished his treat. "Apparently Twist is missing. Her parents came by earlier looking for her." "I see" Shotaro tuck a pad and pen out and began to write ."Anything else". "I'm sorry guys but I don't know anything else." Spike said nodding. "But I'm not too worried. The kids in this town are always on some sort of adventure" Shotaro then stood up " that's ok Spike you at lease help prove my hunch. Come on Pinkie Pie, we need to find more clues." He then made his way to the door. Pinkie got up and followed the detective." Bye Spike and thank you again Sweet Heart." She waved a hoof and waked out with the detective ."And Spike, make shore Twilight gets a cup cake too" TTT________TTT The two waked down the road. " now we need to think. Who would benefit from all theirs kidnaping." Shotaro paused for a response. "Pinkie Pie?" "oh sorry Sho" Pinky said to the Stalin. "I was thinking of what Phillip mite want to have at the party. Do you think he would like cotton candy?" "I'm not to shore what he likes." Shotaro answered ."In the two years I've known him I never learned what he's into. More to the point we need to find this dopant" all of a sudden the two stopped as a mass of cream formed in front of them into the dopant that attacked them before. "And speak of the devil." Shotaro said with a smile on his face. "Your under arrest. Now come quietly." "Out of my way. The pink one mine" The dopant said. "Not on my watch" the detective said with the double driver around his waist. He then healed the joker memory in his hoofs. "JOKER!" he crossed his lag and yelled "HENSHIN!" soon the cyclone memory appeared in the driver. After both were in pleased he activated the driver. "CYCLONE!JOKER!" A cyclone formed around Shotaro turning him in to Double. He pointed with his hoof and yelled out. "Now Time To Conte Up Your Sins!" He then jumped up in to air on a gust of wind. Both his back hoofs flue into the monster's chest sending it back a few feet. The dopant then pointed the cone at the rider and fired wipe cream. Double dogged by side stepping before kicking the living sweets again. Cream stated to come out of the creature's mouth like before "not this time" The left side then closed the driver. He tuck out the joker memory and replaced it with a new blue memory. He then opened the driver again "CYCLONE!TRIGGER!" The black half turned blue with another strange device on his chest. The right side grabbed the device in his hoof and pointed it at the monster. The Trigger Magnum fired small,green shots of wind causing sparks to fly off the dopant. "Enough, I don't have time for this." The dopant melted into the ground. The rider then lowered his weapon. "Now where is he" "I don't know but we need to find it before..." "HELP!" The two voice's conversation was cut off by a mares cry for help. he turned around to find Pinky Pie being eaten by the monster ."This is my worst and most ironic nightmare come to life!" Pinky yelled as the red, creaked mouth closed. The monster's stomach was enlarged after devouring its victim. It then jumped in to the air. "Pinkie Pie!" The blue half yelled but when he looked around there was no sign of the dopant. Double then closed the driver and removed the two memories ."Don't worry Pinkie Pie, I will find you." Shotaro said as the armor disappeared. He looked down to find a mechanical spider at his hoofs. It crowed on to his lag and Shotaro lifted it up. On what looked to be its thoraces was a blue screen with a map on it and a red dot blinking. TTT________TTT The creator waked in to an abandon house on the outskirts of Ponieville. It entered a messy yet funicular kitchen that had flower and sugar covering the floors in what looked to be a couplet disaster area. The dopant spat out the pink mare. She looked around the room with a scared look on her face. She soon looked at the far wall to find three ponies tide up. One was a light yellow mare with a dark blue and pink mane. Her cutie mark was three piece of candy. Another was a filly with a red cully mane and big thick glasses. Her cutie mark was two candy canes. The last pony was a Stalin with a brown mane and dressed in an apron and paper hat. His mark was a pink frosted donut. "Why am I hear" Pinkie asked as she started shaking in in fear. The dopant stud there for a moment before it started to melt again. But instead of disappearing what was left was the blue Pegasus that she met in the library just a few moments ago. "Sweet Heart!?" "Yes it's me and I'll tell you why your hear." She said in a superior tone. She then waked past Pinky to the window. "I'm sick and tired of making others famous. All my life I always wanted to open my own bakery." "So what stopped you." Pinkie asked. "Thou I am an expert on sweets I am not the best in the kitchen." Cut to Sean of a kitchen exploding. She turned around and showed off a red Gaia memory with a S on it that looked like it was made out of cake ."But with this power and Equestria's most famous sweet makers I can stare my dream bakery right hear. And the first treat I'm going to sell will be your dilatable cup cakes" she said with a intoxicated smile "GORNMO!" The two mares turned around to the window as a stallion crashed threw the glass. The brown, fedora wearing directive stuck up a lag and struck a pose. "No pony will cry as long as I'm around " Sweet Heart face turned to anger as a big smile grew on Pinky's "Shotaro! How did you find me?" "I had a little help from this guy." Shotaro stuck up his fore lag to show off an odd yellow watch. He then put a Gaia memory into the slot. "SPIDER!" The watch then transformed into a spider and crawled away. Pinkie Pie then looked at her back lag to find a small black and blue disk with a blinking light on it. "You won't stop me from achieving my dream." Sweet Heart said as she preset the button on the Gaia memory. "SWEET!" She then put the memory into her neck. The wipe cream covered her body soon transforming her into the sweet dopant. The monster's left arm morphed into a blade. It then began to swing it's arm at Shotaro. Shotaro duked and rolled to avoid the attack. He then grabbed a char tipped over on the floor and smashed it into the dopant's head knocking it back a few feet. He then pleased the driver on his waist. The belt straps wrapped around his body as he held up the joker memory "JOKER!" "HENSHIN" the red heat memory appeared in its slot. The purple memory was pleased into its slot and Shotaro activated the driver. "HEAT!JOKER!" The red and black armor formed around the Stalin. Flames covered his lags before he charade at full speed tackling the dopant out the window. When the dopant hit the ground Double rolled across the filed until he stopped himself with his hind lags. The monster swung it's blade arm again but the masked hero dogged with a back flip. Flames formed around his right lag as he delivered a punch right into the taffy head. Soon both lags where on fire as the dopant was hit with a barge of flaming punches before he deliver one last uppercut that sent the dopant flying. "now lets conte up your crimes" immediately after saying that the black half pulled out the purple memory and dropped it into the black slot on the side of his belt. He then crouched down and pressed the button on the slot "JOKER!MAXIMUM DRIVE!" flames erupted from the silver line that divided the black half from the red half. He then jumped into the aid before both halves split apart "JOKER GERNAD" Both halves flue threw the air as each hit the target with flaming hooks before the two reunited in a fiery explanation. The rider turned and waked away from the blast. Laying in a crater was the sweet critic with a Gaia memory in front of her eyes falling apart. Double soon transformed back to a normal Stalin waking to the broken down house. "are you ok" Shotaro asked as he extended a hoof to help the pink mare up. "I think so" she answered as the detective helped her to her hoofs. At this point Shotaro was able to see that Pinky was in no danger. Her mane was a mess and she was covered in small cuts and bruise but she was ok. "that's good" he said smiling to see his new friend is alright. He then looked down to his spider companion ."Ok little guy ,Go alert the Royal Guards" the spider then started to crow out of the house. "And Pinky Pie, help me get Theas ponies out hear". Soon the two began to untie the captives and tried to wake them up. Shotaro and Pinky Pie then help wake the sweet makers to the hospital. TTT__________TTT faraway from town in the wasteland's underground a meeting was taking please. The underground cave was nicely decorated in tapestries and fancy lanterns. In the middle of cave was a dining room table decorated in a clean ,white table cloth and silver candle holders. Siting around the table enjoying a meal was for fingers. at the head of the table was an older looking diamond dog. He wore a red suit and had tinted glasses on his face. He had shote silver fur on top of his head. He spoke in a deep ,demanding tone. "I will assume that no one had any trouble these last compel of week" he said as he tuck a bit out of a gemstone. "the Gaia memory production is on schedule" another diamond dog replied siting on the left side of the table. This one was a female. She wore a dark murine dress and her hare was in a bun. "and I just soled five more memories in the town of Ponyville." The voice belonged to a male in a suit with a handkerchief with a red dot around his neck siting next to the female. "my radio shoe is doing amazing a always." A girl's voice chimed in. Siting on the right side of the table was not a diamond dog but a white unicorn. Her mane was black and her cutie mark was an amethyst wrapped in a microphone. "Not to mention my big sister is getting marred tomorrow" she said exhaustedly. "ah yes, tomorrow is a time of joy." The old diamond dog said raising a glass." To Saeko and her husband Kirihiko who I'm confined will be a grate asset to our goles and may Celetie know who the true ruler of this worked will be." TTT__________TTT 2 Days later in the boutique Shotaro was on his typewriter finishing his report on the case ...the famed sweet critic was sent to prison for the next year and a half. The young filly Twist was returned to her parents who was happy to see there child safe. Donut Joe wheat back to his shop and even sent us a box of plane sugar donuts as a thank you. Shotaro stops to takes a bite out of a donut before typing again However the real achievement was that Phillip and I was able to protect our new friend Pinky Pie. She may be a bit odd but I'm glad to have met her. She acutely throwing us a welcome party. I wonder how Phillip's going to Handel being the center of attention. Shotaro then turned to see Phillip and Rarity holding there donuts in there magical aura. Soon braking the peaceful tone of the shop was the fireball of energy that was Pinkie Pie. "hello Pinkie Pie" Shotaro said with a smile. "Do you want a donut, there fresh from Cantlot." He ask a he held up a pastry. Pinky just shuck her head to indicate yes before she ate the donut right out of his hoof. "Pinky pie I headed what happened, are you ok?" Rarity ask as she pleased a hoof on her friend. "I'm fine Rarity, thaw I did need to take a bath afterward" the pink mare said. "But I'm hear for one very important thing" her eyes narrowed." Phillip!" She then turned and pointed at the surprised gray unicorn. "We need to take about your half of the welcome party." "Uh what!?" Phillip said as what the party planer said cote him off guard. "I mean I know what Shotaro likes, he's a hardboiled detective after all." "thank you" Shotaro interrupted "but now I need to get to know you" "that's very kind of you but you see..." Phillip turned around and ran to his room. "oh no you don't" the pink pony leaped threw the air and tackled him. Shotaro and Rarity laugh at the sight in front of them.
