You close both eyes with tranquil thoughts and quickly open them with determination. Gears of wood and metal turned, the sound of clashing metal resonates from under your right sleeve. Finding your targets in the same position, you quickly turn in your seat to face the two ponies. lining up the sights of your portable crossbow with the mare in the old booth, you pull the trigger and wait for your bolt to be firmly placed between the mare's eyes. Her reaction was quick to catch the sound of snapping wire. Her beautiful eyes display a mix of somber emotions, but most of all...

Terror...

The roundtable at the booth suddenly flies into the air, clean glasses and various condiments crash onto the dusty floor, shattering in the process. Your bolt was blocked by the large wood surface of the tabletop. Leaning out slowly from behind cover and holding the table in position was the brown stallion. His brows angle downward with a prime look of anger and disappointment.

Dashing out from behind cover and into the open was the mare, In her grasp was a hard silver container of napkins. She draws her arm back and throws the container at you. You quickly raise your own arm in front of you to block the oncoming object. The concealed weapon impacts the projectile, springs and wire fell from the weapon. You look  back in the direction of the stallion, approaching was the same wooden table which saved the intended target from death. It was behind this table that the stallion found cover.  He drew closer, using the table as an oversized shield.

You take a step back to assess the situation you found yourself in, only to feel the wooden surface of the bar counter behind you. You glance at the available exits within the room. To your left was the main entrance, and to your right was the back door.
