Dual Blade stared him down about his question on where he could find Twilight, he then remembered something about his name... so he stood up from his seat, pulled his Desert Eagle out, and aimed at Red, who wasn't fazed.

"What are you doing?" asked Red in a monotone voice.

Dual Blade pulled the slide of his gun back with his right hand, making it click, while still aiming. "Why do you wanna know where Twilight is?"

"I just wanna ask her some questions...Is there something wrong with that?" asked Red standing up too.

"Yeah...seems pretty suspicious...especially with your surname..."

Red scoffed and smiled. "I am related to Rainbow Dash, if that's what your asking, I'm her brother."

"Yeah, you look like you can be an older brother of her, but for your information...Me and Twilight killed her out of self defense when she killed our friends...and I'm not taking any chances of her family members not being insane..."

Red snickered a little and slowly walked up to Dual Blade, not scared at all, and stopped in front of him as Dual Blade's gun hand was shaking, not knowing what this guy is gonna do.

Red grabbed Dual Blade's wrist with the Desert Eagle and made the gun press on his chest, while still looking him in the eye. "Go ahead, Shoot me..."

Dual Blade started to sweat a little. 'Is this guy serious?' he asked himself.

"All I'm saying is, you can't kill me with that gun...even if you can, I know you don't have the fucking balls to pull the trigger..."

Dual Blade squeezed the trigger to try and shoot him, to prove himself, but something was wrong...the gun didn't go off. He pulled the trigger again, but it still didn't go off...

"What are you waiting for, shoot me..." Red repeated, Dual Blade checked his 50 Caliber handgun to find out what's wrong with it...It wasn't jammed, the safety was off, and he knows it's loaded; he loads it every time before he ever leaves his house.

Red slowly let go of Dual Blade's wrist, so he can check his gun. The blue pegasus pressed the clip release button and grabbed it when it slid out, looking inside he saw there were no bullets in it!

He looked up at Red and saw that he grabbed something from the back pocket of his jeans, he balled his right fist with the mysterious items and opened it, letting the objects drop onto the floor. Dual Blade's pupils turned into pinpricks when he saw that the items on the floor were his Desert Eagle bullets!!!

"I told you...you couldn't kill me with that gun..." Red said, Dual slowly looked at him with a scared expression. "But I'm a little impressed, you actually tried to kill me...I guess you do have some balls, Kid..."

Red grabbed Dual Blade's neck and picked him up right off of the ground, Dual began to choke and squirm when he saw that Red picked up his right hand and a very sharp looking claw appeared on his index finger after he picked him up. The red stallion's glasses fell off after the quick motion and when Dual saw his eyes....he started to tear a little.

His left eye was normal but his right eye was slightly reptilian and has 4 colors on his iris which consisted of red, blue, green, and gold...His sclera was also pure black.

Red placed his claw on the top of Dual Blade's chest and looked at him straight in the eye with a serious expression. "If you didn't know, I killed a lot of changelings from where I lived and they fucking killed my niece. I just want to talk to Twilight, nothing more, and I said I wasn't gonna hurt you, but I feel like your testing my patience and I have little patience to ponies who try to kill me...So let me make this easy for you."

Red released Dual Blade, letting him drop to the floor and back up against a wall, as the red stallion walked up to him menacingly. "You tell me where Twilight is and I won't spill your guts right here on your clean floor."

Dual Blade was hyperventilating, he's dealt with 4 serial killers, but not a demon looking pony with razor sharp claws...what was gonna happen if he said he didn't know where his marefriend was? Is he gonna kill him?

"Look man...I don't know where she is...After The Canterlot University murders...she told me that she was gonna hide out. I asked if I can come with her, but she said no."

Red bent down and spoke in a voice that sounded a little demonic, while pressing his claw on the blue Pegasus's chest. "Are you bullshitting me? Cuz I tear open bullshitters!"

"NO, I DON'T KNOW WHERE SHE IS, I SWEAR!" Dual blade yelled, seeing Red's claw give a light glint from the sun, outside.

Red squinted his eyes at him and slowly lifted his claw away from Dual Blade, and it slid back down into his finger. He walked away from him and picked up his glasses from the floor, putting them on. Dual Blade could've sworn he pissed his pants after that experience after he stood up with his sweaty face and pinprick pupils.

Red fixed his hair a little and looked at Dual Blade again. "Now...I'm sure you have some friends that know more about this killer, right?"

Dual Blade cleared his throat a little and fixed his jacket. "Yeah....I have some friends..."

Shining Armor was in the gym lifting some weights and was huffing from tiredness. He wore a white tank top, gray sweatpants, and blue sneakers. He grew his hair back to his original style from the first killing spree.

He put the dumbbell back on the stand and reached into his gym bag, He took out a cloth and wiped his forehead with it, while also taking out a cold water bottle.

Dual Blade and Red walked into the gym and were stopped by two security guards. The guards made both stallions stand straight and put both of their arms out like a 'T' and began to pat them down to make sure they have no weapons on them.
Saying their clean, they dropped their arms and walked to where Shining was sitting.

"Hey, Shining." Dual Blade said, The white stallion looked at him.

"Hey Dual, how've you been?"

"Alright..."

"Okay." Shining replied, he then looked at the red stallion next to Dual. "Who's this?"

"Oh, This is Red...he's somepony who's gonna help us..."

"Help us with what?"

"We need you come with us back to your place so we can talk with you and Cadence...it's very serious."

"Really, why?" Shining asked.

"Look...Shining, isn't it?" asked Red, Shining nodded. "I promise I'll tell you everything once we get to your place...we don't need anypony else looking into our shit..."

Shining made a slight pause and looked at them. "Alright...."

Author's Note

Sorry I took long, I was procrastinating a lot lately....

Anyway the reason for the pat down for weapons at the gym was because Red looked shady and Dual Blade walked in with him...but even though Dual didn't look as shady as Red....he had to get patted down too, cuz he walked in right after him.

It's a rule in some of the businesses there (Banks for example) that says when a pony looks shady or walks in suspiciously, pat them down for weapons. because there maybe a slight chance that that pony would rob the business.

Don't think about it too much, ok?
