After a long night of pondering, we come to the morning, Aks was sleeping very soundly on the couch, Shining Armor was on the bed snoring his ass off.

Now the phone next to the couch started to ring, Aks groaned a bit a picked it up.

"This is your morning wake up call, you asked for this, the time is ten am, and the weather is very nice today. Perfect for a killing spree. Good day sir." click.

The call ended and Aks rolled off the couch, now this time he had a pretty serious hangover going on. "Fuck, time to get some shit done." He picked the phone back up,

"Room service, how may we help you?"

"Yes I will like the Continental breakfast please."

"Right away sir." The call ended and he put the phone down. Now he heard a loud pop, he looked to his bed thinking it was a gun, though it was just Shining popping his back.

"Morning Shining, ready to take your wife back?"

"Coffee first."

"My man, though you should take that phrase to your grave, I know she would get a bit ticked off, that's no sex for a week."

"Alright, so what should we do?"

"First we eat breakfast, which I just ordered. Then we each take a shower and head down to the Garriet, that's the finest suit store on Earth, and it gives 20% off if you are staying here. Tip, don't ask how much, just pay them."

"Why?"

"Well, the people that are going there are high society, and they only wear the best of the best in terms of cloths. Oh and we need to redo your mane and tail, you know, a disguise."

"Ah, I get it."

"After that we hang around the hotel for a few hours, then we raid the party, you won't do anything, all you will do is take Cadence and run, just run, don't even think about using magic, they will put a spell on that negates your magic."

Knock, knock. "Ah, that'll be breakfast."

Now then, after they got some breakfast in, they shopped around Garriet's and got some very nice suits. Oh, since the owner of the business owed Aks a favor he got the suits for free.

Next they headed to a hair salon, all Aks did was play on his phone and talk with Shining Armor a bit.

After that they headed back to the hotel, Shining Armor's mane and tail were dyed green, though it held the same shape. Shining was in the bathroom getting his suit on, Aks on the other hand was doing chin ups using a chin up bar right in the living room, specially made for hard exercise.

His big muscles showing and sweat glistening off his body, he had a tattoo on his back, it said "
Sicarius," which means assassin. a mark of his stature.

(two years of latin really does pay off, go figure, though it's still boring as hell, for all those latin majors I am sorry, it's just not for me)

Shining shouted, "Hey Aks?"

"Ya?"

"How much longer do we have to wait before we can get Cadence back?"

"Not long, two more hours and we shall leave."

"What will we do in two hours?"

"You can do what you want here, I was gonna clean out all my weapons and reload them, that should take two hours."

"Ah, how many guns are you gonna bring again?"

"Two, two pistols with silencers on them. That and a crap ton of ammo. Just so you know there is a chance Cadence will not come out of this alive."

"If we die right?"

"Well duh, but also. There will be a lot of guards there, I don't know if ether of you will get out alive, you two haven't spent your whole life's training under the two previous best assassins on the planet."

"Wait, who are they?"

"My parents."

"Really? They always seemed like the two nicest humans I have ever known."

"Well, they’re nice people, but they were the top of the top of assassins. Though they have always been nice people, and even better parents."

"That is the fifth weirdest thing that I have heard today."

"Only fifth? Then I haven't shown you shit yet, though a shit fest is what's to come for tonight."

"I feel weird about this."

"About what exactly, there's a lot to take in."

"Well, I’m going into something that might kill me, and I am not scared at all. I'm actually excited, but with a few butterflies in my stomach as well."

"That's how we all feel on our first missions, just don't get cocky, there is a lot to come."

After spending two hours watching tv and cleaning guns they got on the road and headed to the mansion. They were almost at the front gate of the mansion.

They were driving in his lamborghini, Aks was in a very nice suit and Shining was also in a black suit for ponies, his cutie mark was painted over to look like a pile of money. Which was really nice for the place they're about to attack.

"You ready Shining, after we enter the gate you can NOT go back, got it?"

"Yes, I take it you do most of the talking?"

"Duh, remember, these people got where they are from a lot of bad shit. For example, one of them is the CEO of E corp, he got there from taking 50% of all funds from charities, he calls it tax, I'll kill these fucks if I get the chance. Though Cadence comes first of course."

"She does, is that the gate?"

"Yes it is, lets do this." Aks' car stops at the guard post, the guard was dressed in a suit with dark sunglasses.

"Invites." Aks doesn't even look at him and handed over their invites. He looked over them for a minute and typed something in the computer at the little guard post. He stepped back out and handed them their invites back, "Have a night."

The gate opens and Aks drives away. "Heh, that was the easy part." Shining Armor just looked at him.

They drove up behind a viper, a very sexy viper, "That's the rental house." Said Aks, it was about 3 floors and from ground level it was huge the brick work was beautiful.

"Wow," was all Shining could say.

"Sad to say this house will be blown up after the auction."

"Why?"

"To hide their evidence, even if they clean it up there will always be evidence, if they burn it there's nothing left for them to use."

Just as he finishes two valet's open the doors and they step out while one of the valet goes and parks the car. They walk up the stairs without saying a word, just staring at the door.

"Aks, good luck in there."

"You too." They reach the doorman who checked the invites, he of course lets them in.

The inside of the house is absolutely beautiful, it was mostly white, with black railings for the stairs, there two staircases looping up right past the door to a small balcony with one door that had one guard.

There was also a glass chandelier which was bigger than it needed to be, the walls had gold trim with columns for decoration.

There were guests all over the room talking and being served champagne. A waiter offered champagne to Aks and Shining, Aks grabbed a glass while Shining shook his head.

Aks drank the whole glass and set it on a nearby table, he looked around and saw 4 security guards around the room, along with a door guarded by another guard. Aks walked up the stairs and towards the door. the guard looks at him and was about to say something until Aks asked him,

"Excuse me, do you know where the washroom is? One of the butlers grazed by suit."

"Oh, it's right over ther-" He was cut off by Aks shoving a knife in his throat, he covered the guard's mouth as he fell down dying, luckily no one saws the guard's death.

Aks got back up and dragged the body through the door, he hid it in a small closet right next to the door, the new hallway had no guards, though it held the same style, as before, though it had paintings on the walls.

He walked down the hallway until he saw a small corridor coming out of the hallway, he looked down it and saw two guards guarding a door, probably the control room.

Aks took out his pistol and put on a silencer (since this is one of the cool action/fiction movies the gun won't make any noise)

He started to walk down the hallway with the gun in his hand, one of the guards was gonna say something, though Aks raised his gun before the guards could and he put a bullet in each of their heads.

Now luckily the control room didn't hear anything, or there would be guards running out of there. Aks sat next to the door and took out a flash bang grenade, he pulled the pin and waited a second, Aks opened the door slightly and threw it in.

Aks heard a small bang and he stood up with his gun at the ready, he opened the door and there were 5 guards sitting down covering their eyes along with 5 crewmen operating the lights and everything else. Aks cleaned out his clip and shot them all in the head.

He checked the room for any guns or stuff, he looked to his right and saw two smg's hanging up, each with a 45 round mag, he smiled and put away his pistol.

Aks used one of the cameras and looked into the hallway he was just in, he saw 5 guards lining up holding pistols with silencers. Aks smiled as he turned to the door, he jumped out having his body sideways, the guards were a bit surprised which let Aks clean out his smg's.

All the guards fell on the ground dead, one of them struggled a bit, though Aks put a foot on his chest, took his gun and finished him off. Now all the guards started to make their way towards Aks' location, he always enjoyed having them follow him.

When the guards got to the hallway they looked around, they saw nothing, though what they didn't know was Aks was sneaking up behind them with two knifes.

They started to walk towards the bodies of their fallen guards, they let their guard down, one of them said.

"Sir, the assassin is gone, search all the guests." Aks silently killed the two back guards followed by him throwing his two knives into the next two guard's heads. The final one turned around as Aks had his gun pointed to his head, he pulled the trigger and the guard was missing some brain matter.

Aks reloaded his guns and walked towards the second floor to shoot some of the guests.

Now Shining Armor was waiting in the lobby talking with a couple of the big money targets, "So, you say if you can kill this guy you can get free labor in Africa raising your profits through the roof?"

"Yes, though it's not only Africa, China, Iraq, Cuba, all those places." Said the businessman.

"Hmm, I need to get some more champagne, brb as the kids say." He looked at Shining with a confused look, though Shining Armor just walked away.

"That was close, these people really are as bad as he said they are." As he finished one of the guards took out a mic and said over the speakers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the auction will begin in just a moment, please make your way to the auction room, everyone will get a seat. I wish you all luck."

Two giant doors open up letting them in.

Shining Armor had to follow them, the auction room was giant, the ceiling was larger then any other room in the Crystal Empire. The seats were in a theater pattern, with the front seats at eye level to the polished wood stage. Each row of seats was raised a bit, each chair was made of the finest leather, with nice comfy armrests. Everyone made their way to their seats except for Shining Armor.

He walked to a guard and asked him, "Excuse me, where is the bathroom?"

"Second floor past the guarded door, just tell Edgar I gave you permission."

"Alright, thanks." The guard nodded and Shining left.

After making his way past the door the looked into the hallway Aks was just in, he saw 7 bodies all lying down with gun shots in their heads. He walked up a bit only to be jumped by someone, Shining was taken to the ground with a knife to his neck, he opened his eyes only to see Aks.

He had a very cold and emotionless look on his face, "Shining, didn't know it was you, I just heard footsteps." He got off him and Shining got to his feet.

"H-How many of these guards did you kill?"

"Hmm, I think about 17 so far, and more are coming so you might wanna go back to the auction room, don't let Cadence get bought, bid as high as you can if I'm not there in time."

"Alright." Shining Armor walked out and Aks ran to the farthest room.

Once he made it there he saw a room saying "Personal suite" he thought for a minute and entered. After opening the door he was met by three guards with smg's pointed to his head.

"Do you all really wanna die here." They looked at each other giving Aks enough time to pull out his pistol and shooting all of them in the head. They fell down dead.

Now Aks looked around the room and realized he was in a storage room for all the items being sold, just then he heard a door all the way at the other side of the room open, he picked up two of the guards smg's and pointed them at the door.

four guards entered with pistols at the ready, Aks smiled and emptied the clips of his guns, two of the guards died and one was shot in the leg.

The last one took cover behind a crate, as did Aks when he ran out. He took out his pistol and rolled out of his cover, though there was no guard to be seen, he did shoot one bullet into the suffering guard's head to ease his pain.

He looked around only to have the guard jump on his back, Aks flung him off only for the guard to kick the gun out of his hand and punch him in the face.

Aks stumbled a bit and charged at the guard, Aks threw a jab only for the guard to dodge it, now Aks did give a sidekick to his thy. Causing the guard to stumble a bit, Aks delivered two uppercuts to the guard's face making him fall down. Aks dove behind the guard and got a chock hold on the guard.

He was helpless to Aks chocking the life out of him, he resisted for a bit until he lost his breath, Aks the broke his neck and got up. He put his hand to his lip and there was a bit of blood.

"Nice try, I'll give you that." Aks kicked the guard's body only to hear a muffled help. He looked to a larger crate and walked over to it. He could hear chains and a muffle, there was a small lock to the crate, he just shot it and it unlocked.

He he walked in the semi-small crate only to find Princess Cadence chained to a poll with a gag in her mouth and a ring on her horn blocking her magic, she was also blindfolded.

Aks got on one knee and took the gag out of her mouth, "Get away you!" Aks recovered her mouth with his hand.

"Sheesh, I forgot how annoying her cries were." He took the blindfold off and he saw her pink eyes, "It's okay Cadence, it's me, Aks, Shining and I are gonna get you out of here."

"Thank Celestia, I'm glad to see you, though how did you get here?"

"Long story, I'll get you out of here, trust me, I've done stuff like this many times." Two guards run in through the door followed by Aks taking out his gun and killing them without even looking, Cadence was almost in shock.

Here is one of the nicest humans she has ever meet killing two living beings without even caring. "Who are you?"

"Long story for another day, come on." He got the chain off and took off the ring off her horn. They ran out of that room and out into the hallway.

Aks broke down the door to the lobby and they jumped from the second floor to the first, the guards took out their guns only for Aks to shoot them in their heads, "Monster kill bitch." Said Aks.

Shining Armor heard the gun shots, now the rest of the guests were terrified because they’re used to sending people to kill others, not the other way around. He ran out of the auction room and joined up with Aks and Cadence.

They ran out the door and Aks' car was sitting there waiting for him, the valets did nothing but stand out of the way, Aks jumped into the driver's seat while Shining Armor and Cadence got in on the other side.

Aks stepped on the gas and shifted into first gear, he started to drive off only for 5 guards with automatic weapons to fire upon Aks, now none of the shots hit him, because he was very far away and their goons, they never hit anything. The guards knew they wouldn't be able to catch up to them so the guards didn't even try.

After a few miles Aks said, "Oh my god, I forgot how much I missed doing stuff like that, it's nice to go back sometimes. What do you two think?"

Cadence was just staring out of the window from shock, while Shining said, "Let's never do that again." Which made Aks bellow out a heavy gut laugh.

After an hour driving they finally made it to the Continental. The valets let them out of the car, now they were shocked to see an alicorn exit the car. The three of them walked up the stairs and entered the hotel, the lobby had a decent amount of people sitting in the chairs waiting for their rooms.

Aks said, "Shining, take her to my suite, I just gotta ask Shawn something."

"Alright, come on Cadence, I'll explain some things, though I don't know everything." Aks walks to the front desk.

"Welcome back sir, I've heard of what you did, and I just have to say no one is that good at cleaning."

"It's not that, please don't let that pink alicorn out of here, she is scared, worried, and has no idea where she is. Can you do that for me."

"Certainly sir, she won't be able to teleport out of here thanks to our magic proof walls."

"Thanks."

"No problem sir, have a good night."

"You too." Aks walks to the elevators and waits, he thinks, "Wow, I might have to come back, I've missed this life. Wait, no no, I can't, can I? I should sleep on this."
