The King Mob of Manehattan

We felt the carriage bump along the road. Of course, I felt a little groggy. We decided I'll trip the electricity. It will also shut down security measures to ensure secrecy. I yawned loudly and heard chuckling. "Hey Fire Shot, you sleepy?" He asks.

"Shut up, I had to watch the Wonderbolts five stupid times. I know my best friend is the best, but I don't like it that much," i said. Everyone snickers at me and I grumble. I get off the carriage and Bullet Count walks in the weapons store.

"I'm in position," he said. I look at the curcuity box and sighed.

"Crap," I said.

"What?" He asks.

"It's too complicated to do it carefully," I said. I took out my gun and shot randomly. I was even surprised it worked. Silence played out before Bullet Count walks out as I yawn.

"What did you do? You said it was too complicated," he said. He sees my gun and looks at the box. "You lazy crap!" He said. I smiled. "That scared me you pony!" He said. I see him tried to hide a smile. We got some weapons and found a jackpot of illegal weapons and drugs. We load it all into the carriage, knowing we'd get good money. I can't wait to be able to buy Rainbow something beautiful. A necklace, a bracelet, or even a new chariot! I kept imagining the possibilities. The train of thought broke when Bullet's phone went off. He picks it up.

"Hi Ruby! Yeah? Sounds cool! Eight o'clock? Alright. Yeah! See ya later!" He says. I smiled so widely he groans seeing it. "Don't."

"I must," I said. He grumbles as our friends driving give each other puzzled looks.

"You better not, I hate the song, it's so childish," he said.

"Bullet Count and Ruby, sittin' in a tree, k-I-s-s-I-n-" I was interrupted by a claw on my snout. "Worth it," I muffled. The drivers start chuckling to themselves before laughing uncontrollably.

"Shut up!" Bullet said.

"In all seriousness, I'm gonna keep my promise to you from two days ago," I said.

"What promise? The phone call? You hung up on me you stupid!" He said.

"True, but there was a promise. I'm gonna help you score a kiss," I said. He blushes madly.

"Why the hell are we talking about it now?!" He asks. The two in the front kept laughing. I am enjoying every bit of this. Bullet Count squaked in his claws. This earned barrels of laughter from me. He keeps blushing madly as I tried to breathe.

"Oh my god this is hilarious!" I said.

I was right, we got some serious cash thanks to all the weapons. Around not just fifteen thousand, but over fifty thousand. Again, serious cash. Bullet Count had enough to get a really nice gift. I dunno what it is, but he says it's good. I stare through my binoculars to see Bullet and Ruby at a pizza place, eating a pesto pizza. Basically the pizza that tastes good even though it's green. They are having a chat. I fix my communicator to hear it. Hacking into his communicator is easy. Mostly because I designed it, not bragging over how unhackable it is or anything.

"Wow, you look great tonight! Have you been working out?" Bullet asks.

"Yes I have! Did you notice that badly?" She asks.

"I'm regretting my choices already," I said. I see the feathers on Bullet's wings slowly get disorganized and ruffled. He slowly looks around. I then realized I forgot I have a two way mic. He sees me and smiles widely.

"Give me a second," he said. He walks away get to the side and gets his cellphone, he puts it beside his head and looks at me across the street. "What the hell are you doing here?!" He asks angrily.

"Helping," I said simply.

"Right, stalking and following me is helping!" He said.

"Trust me," I said. He grumbles before 'hanging up' and returns to Ruby. "Okay, approach with subtlety and patience as a bullet," I said.

"Sorry, annoying work people right?" He asks.

"That'll do," I said. Ruby laughs.

"Alright mystery stallion, where to next?" She asks.

"Movies," I said seriously. "Watch Dawn of the Trotting Dead IV," I continued. He thinks about it.

"Dawn of the Trotting Dead? Heard the fourth one is out," he said.

"Really?! I have been waiting to see that movie! Normally I couldn't since Gemmy would be with me!" She says. I smiled. The ship has sailed in the speed of light. I followed them around during the night, and ended it when Bullet Count got out a box wrapped in paper, he unwrapped it and gave a little pink bow to her. I tilted my head at this strange gift. Why a bow of all things? He could have gotten a crown, necklace, or bracelet or a golden anything! Ruby looks at the bow and I took a closer look. It's only made of the usual silk. Nothing else.

"Why did you give her a regular pink bow when you could have given her something expensive!? Abort! Abort!" I said. He glares at me across the street. I shrug. "Fine, your funeral," I said. Ruby lunges at Bullet Count for a big hug. "What?" I ask myself. This is so confusing. Ruby kisses Bullet Count, raising his wings in surprise. "Wings buddy," I said. He lowers them quickly. I see both of them blushing in the passionate kiss. "All for a stinking ribbon," I said.

"This is the best gift ever!" Ruby said, hugging the crap out Bullet Count. I chuckle. It was then I realized, I don't need something expensive, and I almost forgot to pay ten thousand to the douchebag. "Good job bro," I said. After the date ended swimmingly, I went to my apartment and saw an email on my computer. It was from Alvin.
