Steel Mustang

Date: December 10, 2017
Location: Manehatten, Saddle Row Alleyway

It's close to Hearth's Warming and many ponies are buying gifts these days with the money they have. In Manehatten ponies will do anything for money. As for an example take Steel Mustang here. His Cutie Mark shows that he is good at fixing mechanical machines. He would help companies fix machines right...Not exactly. He would pretend to fix the machines but all he would do was steal from the machines and pretend to fix them and take all the expensive parts and sell them to a gang can get some of the money he got he was trying to get into. He would sell the parts to get some money and give some money he got to the gang he was trying to join. The gang was called The Night Stealers and they always did their business in the night. They may have done somethings in the daylight like Steel Mustang here but they acted innocent while doing it. At night they were not nice at all. They thanked Luna for nights to do what they needed to do. If Steel Mustang could join them he could help them out and they could help him get more helpers to steal stuff with him and take down a pony that he would want them to take down.

Now Steel Mustang has gotten far into this gang's initiation process. He passed tagging by doing it on a taxi cart. Stealing from two places without getting busted or caught by the police. He also had the gang's logo tattooed on him. The logo was a moon with two guns on it. He hid it very well though in the day by putting something on or putting makeup on top of it so ponies didn't know his other life. He just had one more thing to do. He went in an alleyway in Saddle Row where two gang members told him to come tonight. When he came he knew what they were going to do.

"You ready." One gang member said.

"Last step." The other gang member said.

"Do it. I'm ready." Steel Mustang said. He was ready for something called The Beat Down.

The two gang members started punching him as hard as they could. Now anypony know about a beat down. Well, we got no gang members but we got a police officer that's seen some. Her name is...What...Eh will just show a picture a pony took of you one day.

"I've seen many crazy things in my time in the police force like that pink pony from that picture that day. Anyways The Beat Down from what I've heard from gang members now in prison is usually showing your loyalty and commitment to the gang. It's like the whole blood in blood out thing. I've seen some happen and we usually catch those gang members and take them to prison. It's pretty bloody from what I've seen."

"Come on are you gonna tap out!!!" The two gang members said together.

After two minutes Steel Mustang was hurt badly but he stayed strong. Once it was over the gang members congratulated him and he was now apart of the gang.

"Hey, freeze!!!" Then they saw police officers coming after them.

The three of them ran off trying to get away from the fuzz. They all went in different directions. Steel Mustang got away and was walking down Saddle Row looking hurt but playing it cool when ponies saw him. He was happy in his mind and he had medicine and bandages at home to clean himself up from. The Beat Down he got. He went down another alleyway for a shortcut to get to his home. Then he heard something. It sounded like it was above him. He looked up.

*Crack!!!!*

A body of a dead stallion from another gang that was getting rid of the evidence by dumping the body from a tall building. It landed straight on Steel Mustang. Nurse Snowheart diagnosis, please.

"This pony was already badly hurt and that corpse coming down from a hundred feet above with gravity would crack many bones in the body like the skull, ribs, and legs. He wouldn't have survived that. He was already bleeding from The Beat Down he got and after that corpse that fell on him, he would be losing liters of blood. However, I don't think he even survived the cracking of his skull which was probrably the first part of his body to get injured since the body fell from above. He was at the wrong place at the wrong time."

Steel Mustang seemed innocent in the day but he was a bad pony at night. Faust from above said that's enough from you...You're done for homie.
