Lance was exploring the brightful town of Appleloosa, mingling with the townsfolk, having some drinks, and even trying his best at the ponies form of dancing, which was called “square dancing”. It had some hilarious effects because of his attempts. As everyone was having a good time in good merriment, a group of bulls in cowboy hats rampaged through the town, standing in the center of the town and capturing everyone’s attention. Lance was puzzled, as he didn't really expect a bunch of bulls to really charge on in and disrupt things.

“Howdy everypony. As you all know, we are the Bulldozing Bulls, and we are here to collect our daily loot and shares.” A large and menacing bull stated. He had a scar under his right eye, and his horns were glistening in the light of the sun.

“Listen up Eviscerator.” Chief Silverstar addressed his rude guest. “We here at Appleloosa are just about plu tired of you bulls just coming in and taking what you want. I declare that we will not take up with this any longer. Leave now, or I will see to it that none of you ever threaten this town again.”

“I see. Looks like you just made the biggest mistake you will ever make for this town!!” Eviscerator demonstrated as he and his crew started attacking any unfortunate pony that were in their way. The town was being completely ravaged, and Lance was completely blinded by all of the dust and small clods of rocks being in his eyes. When the cloud of dust settled down, there was a brown mare gagged up, with rope and a rag covering her wails of help.

“Until you settler ponies learn to pay your dues to us, we’ll take this pony here as “collateral” insurance.” Eviscerator stated, as he hoisted the pony onto his back and rode off to their hideout, yee-hawing and yelling as they made their big exit.

“Apple Cobbler, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!” Chief Silverstar said as he threw his cowboy hat down onto the dirt road, and everyone except Lance were crying and wallowing in their shallow sadness. Lance couldn’t really believe that such an event like this did indeed happen, and worse, an innocent life was now hanging in the balance. Lance soon formulated a plan on how to fix everything.

-------------- Appleloosa: Night --------------

Lance mentally prepared himself as he snuck out of the hotel room and was going to set out and save that helpless mare, who he heard was named Apple Cobbler, from those brutes. As he was edging right onto the edge of town, Lance was soon roped and tripped onto the ground, as Chief Silverstar found him and was looking at him with a stern look.

“I say what are you trying to accomplish by going up against those bulls?” Silverstar asked the lone stallion. “Those guys will brutalize you and do even worse. Me and my boys have tried facing them off, but each time we did, we were barely able to survive with broken bones and ribs. What can you possibly do that the entire sheriff force here at Appleloosa can’t?”

“I can get the job done” Lance coldly stated as he pulled off a sinister smirk, as his eyes glowed a malevolent green and it lulled Silverstar into a dream-like state, and then he slumped onto the ground, asleep and snoozing happily away. Lance soon got the rope off of him and he used his magic to find the magical aura of the bull gang, seeing as he learned that every creature in Equestria always give off a unique magical aura. Once he found it, Lance followed it off to a mountain range a bit ways off from Appleloosa, where there was a camping ground and a campfire stationed there. Lance could soon see that the bulls were toasting and having a merry time, getting drunk and dancing their worries away.

------------ Mountain Range: Night -------------

“Well boys, we have accomplished yet another raid on that stupid old pony town” Eviscerator stated, raising his mug full of alcoholic cider up in the air, as his bulls in arms did the same.

“You bulls are about to really see what I have in store for you” Lance silently threatened as he patiently waited until the bulls decided to go to sleep, with Eviscerator dragging a now unconscious Apple Cobbler into his tent in order to keep a close eye on her so that she wouldn’t try to escape.

Lance soon made his move, as he decided to create a distraction in order to bring out the bulls, and then take them down. He started by levitating a large rock over to a nearby tent, and then dropped it on them. While the rock knocked out one bull, the other in the now ruined tent came out and saw Lance sticking his tongue out at him. He soon got enraged and chased Lance throughout the place. Lance knew that this was going according to plan, and he soon lead the pursuing bull into the other tents, awaking the other bulls and then deciding to join the chase. Lance soon found himself cornered to a rock wall, with 20 other pissed off bulls about to ram the living existence out of him. He soon dropped his disguise, and once the bulls saw that they were chasing a changeling, they immediately charged in on him.

“That’s right…..come right to me” Lance mentally said as he charged in and punched a bull square in its snout, knocking him back into 5 other bulls. He soon casted a blinding spell, blinding most of the bulls for a brief second, as he used that precious time to change into a similar bull like them. When the bulls could see again, they couldn’t see the changeling anymore, and grew suspicious that one of them could very well be the intruding changeling. Taking no chances, they decided to attack each other, taking no chances, as a large mass of rampaging bulls were trying to furiously take each other down, making Lance’s work a whooooole lot easier.

Eviscerator soon woke up from all of the ruckus occurring out of his tent, and all but one person was still standing from the resulting brawl. “What the hell is going on out here?” he angrily asked, looking all around the carnage of his once organized settlement.

“Lets just say that they won’t be waking up anytime soon” Lance said as he transformed into a shadowy fiend, giving off a deathly feeling, which was doing nothing for him.

“So…….you really think that you can get away with this; Sorry to say hombre, but you aren’t gunna leave this place alive.” Eviscerator stated, as he charged at Lance, who in turn did the same. No matter what was about to happen, one of them was gunna be the last one standing.
