Previous Chapter

"The city of Manehatten, and where our next target is," Blaze said. They were trotting around Manehatten. They didn't want to attract too much attention as their mission was simple. Bexy's father actually worked with them, but little did they know, he was in jail right now.

"We should go get it fast, we don't want something to happen," Anchor said

"Don't worry, my friend. We will secure our prize," Blaze said.

"Here we are, a secluded part of town" Blaze said

"Usually cities like this don't have parts like this" Anchor said.

"Not entirely. Some towns do and some don't" Blaze said, continuing on

"Where is his lab at?" Anchor asked

"It's down the road, three blocks to the left," Blaze said.

They made their way to the lab and knocked on the door. There was a pause and then no response

"Hello?" Blaze said and knocked again. No reply

"Is he home?" Anchor asked.

"Break in time," Blaze unlocks the door and trots in.

"Why is it so dead?" Anchor asked

"He should be here... But where?" Blaze said

They wandered all throughout the house, found traces of nopony. Blaze looked noticeably irritated.

"He can't just leave us like that!" Blaze yells

A pony overheard this and trotted in. "Sorry, but this house is vacant. They plan to tear down this house in a few weeks" the pony said.

"What!? Where is the old homeowner?" Blaze bellowed in frustration

"In jail," the pony said.

"...J-jail...? What!?" Blaze goes off again, almost losing his temper.

"Yes, for some illegal activity," the pony said

In a fit of anger, Blaze grabbed the pony and started to choke them.

Too stunned to realize that he's harming another pony that's not his target, Anchor smacked Blaze in the face. "Blaze, don't kill them, we don't want to leave a trace!" Anchor said

Blaze regained his composure and let the pony go. "Let's go. We need to report back," Blaze said as he tried to trot out, only to be stopped.

"What about me, you jerks?"

"What about you? You're just a waste of time," Blaze said as he tossed the pony across the room.

"Are you sure you want to just leave them like that? They will remember us." Anchor said

"If one of two ponies remember us, we won't get caught, after all, remember Canterlot? The queens did nothing to stop us" Blaze said with the same eerie smile.

After that, the two ponies disappeared. While they were reported to officials, no pony saw them, so the two got away with what they have done.


Somewhere Unknown

"Is that so?" A mysterious voice said

"Yes, sir. Unfortunately, we could not speak with him." Blaze said

"It's not the old fool we need, where is his creation, that is what we need. Do whatever you need to bring that pony back alive, understand?" the mystery voice commanded

"We'll do our best, sir" Blaze replied back
