Chapter one. Diamond dogs
Vengeance: Manehattan
Chapter 1.
Diamond dogs.
It had been six months since Sunset Shimmer's death Luna had made her way to the city of Manehattan. Luna carried her bags with her as she found a small abandoned building from which she could set up as her base of operations in. Putting her M-249 machine gun backpack on she covered it with a long black trench coat. Then headed out of the building to begin her hunting of the criminal element that was choking the life out of the city. Luna walked alone down one of the many streets in Hell’s kitchen the city smelled of piss and vomit. Cars trafficked back and forth on the busy streets of Manehattan. Sirens could be heard off in the distance blaring out their mournful callings. Another person had fallen victim to the many crack houses and gang members that plagued the city streets. People of many ages and walks of life could be seen going about their normal routines. Most were unaware of the stranglehold that the gangs had on the once peaceful city. Luna however was very much aware of the stranglehold that the gangs posed on the city. As she walked down the streets of Manehattan past a green bench with a old woman sitting on it crying to herself. Luna suddenly stopped in her tracks then slowly turned around to look at the woman sitting on the bench when she heard the woman sob out.
“My beautiful little grandchild those monsters took you away from me.”
As the woman sobbed while holding a photo in her hands she failed to see Luna started to walk towards her. Returning to the bench where the old woman sat Luna looked at her as she said to her while the woman cried.
“Ma’am what you are you doing out on such a dark and lonely night by yourself?”
The woman did immediately reply to Luna’s question she sat on the bench crying hard as she held tightly onto the photo in her hands. Looking down at her Luna saw the photo in the woman's hands and gently said to her.
“Ma’am may I please see the photo in your hands I would like to see what your grandchild looked like if I may.”
The elderly woman looked up at her then through her sobs handed Luna the photo as she wiped away her tears. The photo showed a little eight year old girl with blue and red hair, pink bows ties in her hair and smile that would warm even the coldest of hearts. Returning the photo to the crying woman Luna said to her as she held her hand out to her to help her off the cold hard bench.
“Who would have taken such a beautiful child as this from you Ma’am?”
Swallowing hard the elderly woman looked at Luna as she took back the photo saying to her as tears streamed down her cheeks.
“It was those damn Diamond Dogs they took her…. my little Jenny from me. We had so very little and I wanted to get her out of this rotten city before something like this happened. Now it is too late.”
“What about her father or her mother couldn’t one of them helped?” Luna replied as helped the elderly woman off the bench.
“Their both dead they died three years ago when they stood up to the gang's leader Rover trying to fight to keep the crack that those monsters sell to our children off the streets. The gangs killed her mother and father to show what happens when you cross them.” The elderly woman replied as Luna helped her up.
Once the woman was off the bench Luna said to her as the elderly woman sniffed hard.
“Do you have any place to go tonight Ma'am you really shouldn’t be out here alone.”
The woman looked at Luna a bit confused as she began to dry her tears she said to Luna who stood watching her wipe away the last of her tears.
“Yes but, I wanted to be out here because this is where my grand daughter and I would come to watch the shops open up for business. She always loved watching them open their stores sometimes some of the shop owners would give her an ice-cream cone and would play music for her. ”
“Tell me how did your little grand daughter die?” Luna replied.
“She ate some food that was laced with crack I don’t know how it got into her food and the school didn’t even bother to investigate it. Now my little grand daughter is gone and I will never be able to see her smile or hear her laughter again. What am I to do?” The elderly woman cried in anger.
“Let me get you home.” Replied Luna gently.
Walking the elderly woman down the street Luna flagged down a nearby taxi. When the driver pulled over Luna approached the window handed the driver two one hundred dollar bills then turned to the woman as the elderly woman said while still crying to her.
“I prayed to God to send an angel to teach those monsters a lesson but, none came. Tell me please why are the guilty allowed to get away with things like this? While we the innocent are suppose to just sit back and watch as our loved ones are slaughtered in front of us?”
Luna looked away for a second saying to the elderly woman gently as she looked at the ground then slowly back up to her.
“I don’t know why the innocent are made to suffer Ma’am. But, you needn’t wait for God to answer your prayer Ma’am.Tell me where to find them and I will make them pay for this.”
Sniffing hard the woman looked shocked that this stranger standing before her would actually want to make the Diamond dogs pay for their crimes. The elderly woman took out her photo again and handed it to Luna saying to her as she held the photo out in her hands to Luna.
“Please take this show it to the one called Rover he is the leader of that awful gang. If you are looking to find them you will find them in deep in Hell's Kitchen. Keep going down this street till you get to Red barn and kibble street. Turn left and head up that street you will find them standing outside of one of their crack houses. More than likely gloating about this.”
Luna took the photo then helped the elderly woman into the taxi and nodded to the driver saying to him sternly.
“If she doesn’t make it home safely I will find out then you will pay. Take her home make sure she gets there safely. Ma’am thank you for the information I must go now.”
The taxi drove off leaving Luna on the street alone with her thoughts dwelling on Rover and his gang of Diamond dogs. A few hours later Luna slowly emerged from a dark alleyway looked across the street and saw the crack house she was looking for. Ten Diamond Dogs were stationed out front all of them were laughing and generally didn’t see Luna until she started to walk towards them. When one of the Diamond dogs saw her coming near their, crack house he sneered to his friends saying to them as she approached them from the alleyway she had been hiding in.
“What's this, a new customer perhaps. Oooh, she’s a cutie. Spot go and get Rover he will want to have some fun with this little play toy.” One of the gang members said as another could be seen running off to get their leader.
Luna let him go as she closed her eyes then slowly threw back her coat revealing her gun to the Diamond dogs. Each the dogs looked from her then to the gun in her hands and they began to call out to her.
“What are you going to do with that little pop shooter girl. We’re the Diamond dogs no one is stupid enough to mess with us.”
“Yeah you think you can come here and start stuff with us you little fool we will eat you alive or sell you for prostitution.”
Several of the Diamond dogs threw empty bottles of apple cider at Luna who in turn ignored their comments to her. As she raised the gun up pointing it right at them Luna grinned. As she stared coldly at the gang members while they all taunted her by either throwing more bottles of Apple Cider at her or by yelling and swearing at her. Luna smiled as she pulled the trigger yelling out to them.
“Time to get your’s you bastards!”
The first ten fell where they stood. The other four ran into the crack house while Luna cracked her neck then gave chace. Getting inside the rundown derelict building Luna looked around as she saw the four she was chasing scamper up a flight of stairs. Firing a few shots at them she began to pursue them chasing them all the way to the top floor. As she got up to the top floor one of the four she had been chasing turned to draw his weapon. Luna saw this and dropped to the floor ducking just in time as the gang member fell to the ground when Luna shot him several times in the chest. Getting back her feet she continued to follow the other three members of the gang catching up them as they tried to get out a fire escape. Grabbing onto one of them by his leg Luna pulled him back into the building letting the other two go. Luna looked as she watched the other two get away. She then turned her attention to the cowering gang member on the floor in front of her and smiled as she began to drag him out of the room by his leg. As the gang member started to struggle Luna turned around shooting him twice in the hip and one in the left shin. The gang member screamed out in pain as Luna dragged him over to a nearby room then lifted him up to a broken window saying to him coldly.
“Alright you can either answer my questions or you can die here and now the choice is yours.”
The Diamond dog looked out the window seeing he was eight stories up lost control of his bodily functions saying to her as Luna pushed him ever closer out the window.
“Alright you win I’ll talk. Just don’t kill me please don’t kill me.”
“I want to know where you got the means to make your crack and where your other two friends are headed.” Luna replied as she held the Diamond dog closer to the window.
“We got them from the Scorpions I don’t know where they got the stuff from. Rover and Spot are headed there now to get back up. Who are you lady? Why are you doing this? We didn’t do anything to you.”
Luna smiled as she said to him coldly.
“Call me Nightmare Moon. And it is not me that you hurt, your drugs and your gang killed a little girl now you must pay for that.”
With that Luna pushed the Diamond dog out of the window as he screamed falling to his death. Looking out into the city Luna smiled as she heard sirens approaching the area she was in. Looking around the crack house Luna found a strong box sitting in the room adjacent to the room she was already in, opening it up she discovered much to her delight weapons inside of it. Taking out the weapons she armored herself up then set to work of putting several explosives throughout the building. When she was satisfied that the place was well rigged to go up she walked outside and headed back to the ally where she had come from. Taking out a remote from her pocket that she had found in the strong box she pressed the button exploding the building behind her as the police came up to it. Looking over her shoulder as she entered the alleyway she said to herself.
“And now it begins.”
Chapter Two: Word on the streets.
Vengeance: Manehattan.
Chapter 2.
Word on the streets.
Lieutenant, Armor Crystal; stepped out of his vehicle looked around then walked over to the coroner saying to him as he lit a cigarette up taking a puff from it and blowing out the smoke.
“What do have we Shining Shield?, I see a burned out crack house and bodies everywhere. So what can you tell me? Who did this?”
Shining Shield looked up from one of the dead Diamond dogs bodies saying to him as she put away the last of her equipment.
“Not sure who did this sir all I can say is that what you have here looks more like a gang hit. I can at least say this though.”
“Yeah and what's that?”
“That whoever did this used a lot of firepower. Fido the third in command is lying in a pool of his own facial fluids. It looks like he thought he could fly and found out rather badly that he well couldn’t.”
“Is that suppose to be a joke?” Replied Armor Crystal angrily
Looking back down at his work then back up at the lieutenant Shining Shield offered a weak smile as he went back to work. Armor Crystal tossed his cigarette to the curb went to light another one but, stopped. When he heard someone call out to him from a crowd that was forming outside the yellow tape that tapped off the crime scene.
“Lieutenant Crystal can you tell me what happened here? Who could have done this and why?”
Looking up Lieutenant Crystal saw Sunny Hope standing in the crowd with her news camera turned on and pointing right at him. Grumbling under his breath lieutenant Armor Crystal walked over to Sunny Hope while glaring at her he grumbled out.
“No comment.”
Sunny Hope smiled as she replied to him.
“Word on the street is that this was done by just one person Lieutenant, you sure you don’t want to give a statement for the evening news.”
“How the hell do you know if it was one person that did this Sunny Hope!?” Armor Crystal snapped angrily at her.
Before Sunny Hope could reply a call came out of Armor Crystals radio.
“All units in vicinity of West 46th and West 45th street report for possible shooting.”
Taking his radio out of it’s clip and pressing the button Armor Crystal said into it.
“Lieutenant Crystal responding for shooting call, E.T.A about ten minutes over,”
Putting his radio away Armor Crystal sighed then headed over to his car got in and sped off towards the area where the shooting was taking place. Several minutes latter Armor Crystal as well as several squad cars pulled up to the corner of West 45th and 46th street. Getting out the car Armor Crystal looked around the area and saw a body lying on the ground several feet from his squad car. Hearing gunshots fired off several times in a nearby building Armor Crystal drew out his gun and ran towards the building. Shouting to several police officers who were just pulling up to the scene as he ran towards the shooting.
“You men take the back I’ll take the front.”
Getting to the front door of the building Armor Crystal could hear the sounds of multiple shots being fired from inside the building itself and the sounds of people screaming in fear. Luna while inside the building and on the third floor opened fire fully onto several Scorpion gang members dropping them all in one clean sweeping movement with her M-249. Kicking open a nearby door Luna tossed three grenades into a room then dove for cover behind a desk. As the grenades went off several more gang members were ripped apart and their bodies flung out near by windows. Armor Crystal kicked open the front door of the building and began to run up a flight of stairs headed towards the sounds of more gun fire. Luna headed out of the room she was in turned to the left and opened fire on three more gang members dropping them where they stood. Walking into a nearby hallway Luna and Armor Crystal both ran right into each other. Before Armor Crystal could shoot Luna, Luna had managed to get a hold of him by his left wrist and placed her gun to his chest. Looking down at his belt she saw his badge then flipped him onto his stomach saying to him sternly.
“Stay out of my way officer otherwise you will wind up dead.”
Armor Crystal climbed back to his feet when Luna let him go then ran after her once he caught up with her he jumped at her only to receive a fist to his jaw for his trouble. Knocking him to the ground then kicking him in the groan several times. Luna smiled to herself as she pointed her gun at him a second time saying to him while he held his nether region with his hands.
“This is your last warning cop stay out of my way next time you decide to try to tackle me I will kill you.”
Luna turned to leave stopping when she heard Armor Crystal call out to her.
“Who are you Lady? Why are you doing this?”
Looking over her shoulder quickly as she was about to duck into another room Luna replied to the officer who was still on the floor coldly.
“Nightmare Moon is who I am. Why I am doing this is none of your fucking business.”
Luna ducked into a nearby room leaving Armor Crystal where he lay holding his groan and praying that Nightmare wouldn’t come back to finish him off. As he slowly climbed back to his feet again he could hear glass breaking in the room that Luna had ducked into. Getting to the room and yelling out to her with his back against a wall outside of the room that Luna was in, Lieutenant Armor Crystal held his gun up to prepare to enter the room.
“Nightmare Moon cease your actions and surrender now!”
Luna didn’t reply as she jumped out the window once she was done breaking the glass of it. Landing on a fire escape she ran up the fire escape dropping four grenades as made her way to the roof. The grenades went off just as Armor Crystal was about to enter the room the explosion knocked him back into a wall and effectively knocked the wind out him as he hit the back wall. Luna having made her way to roof looked to her right and saw Spot running from the building on a nearby street. Taking careful aim with her gun Luna pulled the trigger splattering his brains all over the sidewalk ending his miserable life. As Spots body feel to the ground Luna looked down at the police cars below her then took out a knife she had in her left boot. Turning to a nearby roof access door she threw the knife into it locking the door shut.Taking a running start she lined her self up with roof across from her location and jumped from one building to the next. Landing and rolling to a stop on the next roof over Luna turned around when she heard the clang of her knife hitting the ground. Smiling as the door flew open and lieutenant Armor Crystal could be seen charging through the door she nodded to him then turned and proceeded to head to the next building. Lieutenant Armor Crystal breathed heavily in and out as he took out his radio placing it to his mouth to alert the other police down below his location where to go. Only to realize his radio had been damaged in the explosion that Luna had caused to aid in her escape.
“DAMMIT!” Lieutenant Armor Crystal exclaimed as he threw his broken radio into the rooftop watching Luna get away from him.
Several hours later Armor Crystal sat at his desk going over the paperwork the day's events. Sunny Hope sat across from him with a recorder in her hands saying to him as he placed a file into the ‘outgoing stack’ on his desk.
“So Armor Crystal can you tell me who it was that caused all the deaths of the both the Diamond dogs and the Scorpions today?”
Sighing deeply he looked up from his work then said to her grimly as he picked up another file then looked it over and placed it into the same stack as he had with the first one.
“You're, not about to let this go are you Sunny Hope?”
Shrugging and with a slight smile on her face Sunny Hope replied while holding up the recorder to Armor Crystal.
“No I am not about to let this go this person has killed what at least twenty people so far. The public has a right to know who this person is and why this person is doing this lieutenant.”
Before he could answer her a loud booming voice could be heard from a nearby office ordering him over to the office. Looking in the general direction of the office Lieutenant Armor Crystal saw it was his caption Black Harvest shouting at him.
“LIEUTENANT ARMOR CRYSTAL GET YOUR ASS IN MY OFFICE NOW!” Black Harvest shouted out to him.
Armor Crystal put a hand to the bridge of his nose looked down and rubbed the bridge of his nose saying under his breath while Sunny Hope winced at the booming voice of his captain.
“Great now the captain wants to see me, this day can’t get any worse can it?”
Getting up from his desk and heading over to the captain's office Armor Crystal sighed as he walked into the office. Sitting at the captain's desk Armor Crystal could tell by the furious look in his captain's eyes that this was not going to bode well for him. Clearing his throat captain Black Harvest said to him as he stared coldly at him while standing next to his desk.
“Lieutenant you better have one fucking hell of a good reason as to why you let that manic go today. Other wise your ass is going to be busted down to patrol officer. So start talking mister.”
Looking up at his captain Armor Crystal swallowed hard as he said to his captain.
“Sir I don’t know why this person who calls herself Nightmare Moon is doing this, But you should know that she took out two of Manhattan's most notorious gangs all by herself. If you give me a little time I am sure I can find out what is really going on and how to stop this from happening again.”
Looking out the window Captain Black Harvest saw Sunny Hope still sitting at lieutenants Armor Crystals desk still holding her recorder in her hands. Sighing heavily to his lieutenant the captain placed a hand over his forehead and said grimly to him when he looked back to Armor Crystal.
“If I agree to give you 48 hours to find out what is going on you had damn well better have something for me. I don’t want to get off the phone again with the mayor yelling at me to solve this nightmare that we are in. The city is about ready to fall apart and this person is out there killing scum bags on a whim, which in turn will make this worse in the long run. Hell it is way too late in the day to deal with this shit. Get out of my office and find this person then bring her in.”
“In order to bring this person in I might have to give a statement to Sunny Hope of the golden flower press. Otherwise we might not be able to use her resources to help find this person.” Replied Armor Crystal as he stood up from the captions desk.
“Fine! Whatever, just get this person off the streets. Got it?” Black Harvest replied as he sat back down at his desk and watched Armor Crystal leave his office.
Getting back to his desk Armor Crystal smiled to Sunny Hope who in turn smiled to him saying to him with a slight look of confusion on her face.
“So, uh how bad is it? Have you been fired at all?”
“No I have not been fired but, I more than likely will be if I can’t get this person off the streets within the next 48 hours. So tell me since this is still an open case you do know I can’t really talk about it. I will give you the name she said to me when I tried to arrest her in the building I went to earlier today but, other than that I can’t do much else.” Armor Crystal replied as he looked at Sunny Hope who in turn looked at him and smiled.
“Great that would help out a lot actually. In turn I will use what contacts I have in the military to try to help find out who this person is. The bullet casings that I saw at the first crime scene where no doubt about it Military issue. My father being a military officer for 25 years taught me what to look out for when it comes to ammo and…..other stuff.” Sunny Hope replied as she stood up from Armor Crystals desk.
Nodding to her then sitting back down at his desk Armor Crystal looked at her then down at all the leftover paper work he still had to finish up with. Looking back up at her he said to her as he watched her head for the door.
“Nightmare Moon is what she called herself. That is all I am able to give you right now Sunny Hope. I hope it helps with this case. Oh, I better not see that in print in the morning paper got it.”
“Of, course you won’t I have to go see you around Armor.” Sunny Hope called out to him as she made her way out of the police station.
Getting out side a black limousine pulled up and Sunny got into it saying to the man sitting across from her as he blew out a puff of smoke from his cigar.
“I know the name of the person that has caused you some issue’s Tirek she calls herself Nightmare Moon. Give me a few hours and I will have everything you need on this person.”
Tirek breathed in a on his cigar then blew out a large amount of smoke at Sunny Hope as he stared coldly at her. Reaching up behind himself to a blacked out window that separated him from the driver. Tirek tapped the glass a few times as the window lowered he took a envelope that was handed to him and handed it to Sunny Hope. Who in turn placed it into her purse. Smiling to him as she watched the window close again she looked out the passenger side window then looked back at Tirek who merely sneered at her. Sighing Sunny Hope looked to her right then took a glass out from a coaster she saw sitting next to her and poured herself some wine that was sitting in a bottle next to that. Taking a sip from it she smiled wickedly at him saying to him as she took another sip of the wine in her glass.
“You know if you play your cards right Tirek you can own all of this city within a matter of days. I say let Nightmare have her fun. Once she has wiped out all the gangs in Manehattan the streets shall be yours for the taking. So sit back relax and let me do all the work.”
Sunny Hope set her glass down as the limousine drove down the street Sunny Hope and Tirek both stared coldly at each each other. Tirek took another puff on his cigar and Sunny Hope began to undress herself then crawled up to and sat down on his lap. As Tirek grinned at her while looking at her naked body as she slowly began to rock back and forth on his lap he said to her sternly.
“You fail me and I will do more than fuck you, you will not live to see the labor of your actions come to bear fruit my dear.”
Laughing coldly Sunny Hope unzipped Tireks pants then placed his manhood inside her vagina and began to thrust herself hard into his lap. Tirek smirked as he felt himself get aroused by Sunny Hopes actions. Pushing harder and harder into her she screamed out in both pain and pleasure as the limousine driver continued to drive. As she took all of his manhood into her body Sunny Hope smiled when she felt him let loose a wave of hot jizz into her. Smiling she said as be began to pant for breath.
“I won’t fail you I promise you.”
Tirek grinned wickedly to her as he replied to her sternly.
“See to it that you don’t otherwise you will not like what I will do to you if you do fail me.”
