Chapter 13: Life is Normal...

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

It has been many weeks since the Russian dude and I had our contract. He was a stallion of his word, and moved. Rarity was confused, but she didn't complain. Rainbow still doesn't know my secret, and that's good. She's scared though, kept telling me to go back to Ponyville. It's pretty cool to know that other cities know my gang. They also fear The Hellbringers, but many ponies keep going about their daily lives. I coax Rainbow to come over though, she and I actually started dating. Funny how one movie can make you kiss a mare huh. Bullet Count is still in business, and he loves his job. Ruby is still bringing in some information. I've remodeled the hideout yet again, and now it's like a casino, four star hotel, and a business building wrapped into one. We're doing good on money, and the police still don't have a clue on what to look for. That is until one day, I messed up badly.

I kept my gun pointed at the mare behind the count, waiting for Bullet Count to put all the gold bars in the bag. I have a diamond dog searching around for anything valuable and I have a pony keeping an eye out for any security measures. I kept my pistol pointed at the pony in front of me, and my friends seem to have gotten everything when we start leaving. Well, the pony keeping an eye out had turned out to be undercover. He's pretty good for a cop. Fooled everyone, but he was only able to turn me in. In hindsight, I probably should have some background checks for this guy. He acted very nervous throughout the heist. He barely paid attention to the briefing. I thought he was weird, but he acted like any other guy on our side. The part that made me sick, was that the others left me. They immediately drove off without me. I thought they abandoned me as soon as I was caught. Now, I'm sitting in a cell with a guy named Buffalo freaking Bill. Buffalo freaking Bill. He smells like dead rats, and eats like an animal. I sat on my bed as the first day in jail started, and the guy in top bunk leans over. "So, who're you?" He asks gruffly.

"Fire Shot," I say.

"Okay, who are you really?" He asks.

"Fire Shot," I say again, devoid of any emotion. The only reason why is because I'm bored.

"You ain't no tough guy from Hellrbingers, they never got caught for at least a year now," he says with an annoyed expression.

"Well, the co leader's caught," I say. The buzzer on the wall buzzes and a security pony comes over.

"Okay Mr Shot, come with me," he says. Buffalo Bill watches with wide eyes as I walk out to follow him and two other guards. "You're lucky to get a friend you know, I doubt anyone likes you at all, now make this quick so I can take my break," he says. I nod and sit down on a chair. I look up at the glass panel to see two ponies, Bullet Count and Rainbow.

"Dude! It's you! You're that guy from the elevator!" Rainbow says. I smirk.

"So, you guys remember little old me?" I ask with a gruffness.

"Dude! I'm your bro! I would never abandon you! Also, you should do background checks from now on," he says. I gave an annoyed look. "right, not funny, well I have a knowing feeling that we can get you out!" He says. Rainbow nods with his statement, though she has a scared look.

"Yeah yeah, so I found out that the guards that caught you are actually drug addicts!" He says. He then whispers," He bought from us most of the time." I nod.

"Okay, how is that gonna help?" I ask. He looks left and right to make sure no one's watching.

"When I say they are drug addicts, I mean big time," he says. I raise my eyebrow. "They think they can't survive without drugs, and we could do it two ways," he says. "We could either threaten to cut off their supplies or bribe them with more," he says. I face hoof.

"There's an obvious choice," I say shaking my head. "If you threatened to cut off their supplies, they would just go off to find another drug dealer," I say. He thinks about this and a face of terror took over. He looks at Rainbow.

"Told you it was a good idea to talk to Fire first," he says.

"Wait, Rainbow made the plan?" I ask. She kind of looks down in embarrassment, nodding. I chuckled. "Good one," I say. She beams up a little. I know it kinda sounds wrong to say this, but I admire the fact that Rainbow risked her life for a prisoner who is obviously guilty! Of course, that raises some questions for me.

"Well, just survive the next few days of prison and you're home free!" He says. They left on that last note, and I'm transported to my cell with Bill.

"Holy crap you're the Fireh Shot! How'd you end up here?" He asks once the guards left us in our cells. I smirked.

"Double fricken agent," I say. He nods looking down. "But don't worry, I've escaped prison before, and I'm gonna be let out soon," I say. I keep my dark smirk for the rest of the day.

I munched on my slop as quietly as possible as the other prisoners were watching me. One prisoner walked up. "What're you in for punk?" He asks. I smile.

"Well, I haven't done much," I say. I then started naming all the crimes I've committed. "Murder, drug trafficking, grand robberies, gun and weapons trafficking, more murder, more gun trafficking, illegal grouping, and my worst crime yet: handling explosives extremely illegally while also murdering hundreds." Everyone is silent as they watched me eat my lunch, either horrified or puzzled. One pony recognizes me and trembles.

"You're Fire Shot!" He says.

"Real perceptive of you Trotlock Holmes," I say. Sherlock is apparently Trotlock in Equestria. I can never figure out how they may these names without laughing at least once. As soon as my name was mentioned, everyone was dead silent, even the guards. The new guards had apparently heard of me, along with everyone else in this prison. The guards went back to socializing while a random stallions walks up.

"So you blew up the building?" He asks. I nod without looking away. I dropped my smirk, because just now, I realized how many lives I had broken because they weren't part of it. "You're the one who killed my sister in that freaking blast?" He asks. I stopped chewing and swallowed. I sat silence for a few minutes before nodding slowly. He lifts up one hoof and strikes me across the face, and fell to the floor due to the force of it. Everyone went silent again. "She was not a part of that Celesria damn business! Why did she have to die?!" He yells. I got up slowly and sat down without a word. I just crack a smirk, making everyone's heart skip a beat as they all realized something. I'm not afraid of death.
