Its turning out to be a great morning for Twilight! Twilight slept good, had a good breakfast and found a good book to read. It was almost too perfect. Exactly, Too perfect. She was in the middle of a chapter when she heard a knock on her door. It was the mailman, Delivering a letter. Twilight took the letter and shut the door. She took the letter to her table and used her magic to open it. Upon reading, She found it as a bill. She was greatly dissatisfied and then went to see how many bits she had. This is where it goes bad, She doesn't have enough bits to pay the bill. Upon noticing this, It kinda sent Twilight into full panic mode. The bill was 1500 bits, Twilight only had 380. She was at risk of losing the library! (Oh yea, This is a house bill) the debt had to be paid off soon. 7 days to be exact but Twilight still needed a plan. Turns out, Liberian doesn't pay well, Bummer. She was stressed out until 3 days later, She got a mysterious letter.

The letter had nothing, Not even a return address. It did however, Contain a piece of paper with an address. The address was in Manehattan and a piece of text which made Twilight decide to leave. The text was as follows...

To whom this may concern. I have a job for you. I realize you are in need of bits and I may be able to help you with that. If your are interested please visit the address on the other piece of paper and be there 1 day from now. This is your best bet at funds and possibly your only chance. I suggest you take up on this opportunity. Good luck.

Twilight knew she would be gone for awhile, So she went to tell her friends. She first went to Fluttershy. When Twilight arrived, She seen Fluttershy leaving her cottage.

"Hey Fluttershy." Twilight greeted

"Hey Twilight, I need to...Um.. Talk to you." Fluttershy responded

"Me too, I'm going somewhere and I'll be gone for some time." Twilight informed

"Wait...This place wouldn't happen to ummm... Be Manehattan...Would it?" Fluttershy asked

"How did you know?" Twilight interrogated

"Umm...I got a letter...In the mail." Fluttershy answered.

Fluttershy held up a letter and after Twilight read it, She discovered it as the exact same letter.

"Great! Then we can go together." Twilight said.

"Wait, How are you in debt?" Twilight asked

"I umm... I guess you have to pay a tax for having wild animals in your home." Fluttershy said

As they were walking to the train station, They noticed Rarity and Rainbow Dash at the station. They were holding a small slip of paper. As Twilight approached them, She asked them a question.

"Hey everypony, What are you doing here?" Twilight asked

"We need bits." Rarity and Rainbow Dash responded, At the same time.

"You too?" Twilight asked.

"Yea, Its bullshit because I got robbed and didn't have insurance so I have to take up a job to pay off my stuff." Rainbow dash responded

"I need some money for a new fabric that hit the shelf!" Rarity informed, Sounding excited.

"Oh. I have to pay off a bill for the library." Twilight said

After a minute of waiting for the train, Rainbow Dash noticed Fluttershy.

"Why are you here, Fluttershy?" Rainbow asked

"Animal taxes." Fluttershy let out.

Another solid minute of waiting, Applejack and Pinkie Pie arrived.

"Ya'll here because you need bits?" Applejack asked

"Yep." Rainbow Dash responded

"Oh! I'm here to get money for a new bakery! Bakery!" Pinkie pie yelled, Jumping up and down.

"Yeah, She is a little bit excited." Applejack added

"I'm here to pay off family debts." Applejack said.

After 3 minutes, The train to Manehattan arrived. The 6 bought their tickets and boarded the train, Sitting next to each other. When the train started to head out, They began talking.

"I wonder what the job is gonna be?" Twilight said

"Hopefully it ain't some kinky sex thing." Applejack replied

"I don't know, Knowing some people. They WILL pay for sex." Rainbow dash added

"How did this conversation evolve to this?" Twilight asked

"If it pays well, I'm in." Rarity announce, Ignoring Twilight's question

Everypony looked at Rarity with a look of confusion

"WOO! I can't wait to find out what it is! I'm so excited!" Pinkie yelled, Nearly jumping out of her seat.

After more conversation, The train arrived at Manehattan.

"Well, We don't have to be there until tomorrow. So we should rent a room." Rarity announced

"Shes gotta point. Ya'll wanna head out?" Applejack asked

"Yeah. I think we should get a room." Twilight said

They wondered Manehattan for about 30 minutes until they arrived at a hotel. Upon entering, Rarity took a bag out of her saddle bag and approached the main desk.

"How much for a room?" Rarity asked

"50 bits a night." The receptionist responded

Rarity took 50 bits out of her bag and handed it to the receptionist. The receptionist then handed them a room key, Room 29. The Mane Six went to the room and using the key, Unlocked the door and entered. They got to the room around evening, So they began to un-wind a little bit. They fell asleep about mid-night and woke up in the morning. The gang made their way to the address given to them by their letters. When they got there, They noticed it was a warehouse. They took a deep breath and entered.

Upon entering, They noticed a table with someone sitting in one of seven chairs next to the table. This man, Was Flim. The gang took a seat at the table and Flim spoke up.

"I am Flim as you all know and I represent RED. Reliable excavation demolition." Flim said

"Reliable what now?" Applejack asked

"Look, The name isn't important but the job is." Flim replied.

"What job?" Twilight asked

"I need you to forcefully take land, And defend it from my brother." Flim responded

"That is...It?" Rainbow Dash asked

"Of course. However, He'll try ANYTHING to take the land. However, If you take the job. I have the tools to aid you." Flim added

The Mane Six looked at each other and gave a nod.

"When do we start?" Twilight asked

"Tomorrow." Flim replied

"Get some rest, We head out tomorrow.

The ponies (excluding Flim) left the warehouse only to be greeted by Flam.

"Listen, I need to talk to you." Flam said

"No need. We already talked to Flim. We accepted his offer." Twilight said

"You don't know what your talking about, misses! You either work for me or you'll regret it!" Flam yelled

"No!" Rainbow Dash said, Yelling back at Flam

"Fine. Just remember, I have my ways." Flam responded while walking away.

The girls went to bed at the hotel and went back to the warehouse the next day. They were shocked to see a carriage at the warehouse. But instead of carrier ponies, There was a big machine on the back of the carriage.

"Witness one of the first, girls. A steam-powered carriage." Flim said walking towards the girls.

"Steam powered?" Twilight asked

"It uses an intense amount of pressure from steam to push it into the air." Flim responded.

"Get in. We're going far beyond Equestria and you gals got a job to do." Flim added.

The carriage took to the skies; And in about 4 hours, the carriage arrived at a medium-sized concrete building with a big sign depicting an ignited bomb labeled RED and at the bottom, Smaller font said "Reliable Excavation Demolition"
