MAFIA: Manticore Prime City

MPSG Station - Interrogation Room 1 (Red)

As Spike and Red were talking, Rainbow was a bit confused about something. "Hang on Red, you said Sombra can't attack us?"

Red looked at his sister and nodded. "Yes but as long as you don't go on their territory to cause trouble. Anyone who goes at you will be put on the mafia's hit-list along with a bounty placed on their heads. And as I've said before, if Sombra authorized an attack on you Dash, he wouldn't live to see the next day. "

He walked a bit closer to Dash and held her hand. "That's the threat I gave him so long ago...but once it was known you were a member of The Solaris Sisters it was amended to if you start a war and get hurt...I can't get involved in that cuz I'll be seen as a traitor if I help you during a war between the families, plus you're a grown mare who makes her own choices."

AJ then noticed something, looking at Red. "Hang on Red." The red pegasus looked at the orange earth pony. "Dash and I were on their turf...we were only collecting protection money from a convenient store, two guys from Sombra's gang just attacked us..."

"Did you two raise any suspicion when you were there?"

"No, they shot at us first..."

"Well I did tell you, they were gonna be executed after taking a pot shot at you guys so I wouldn't mind it that much..." Red replied before walking over to a wall and leaned against it, crossing his arms and his right foot on the wall. "What what I do mind much is that...you have a traitor among you..."

Applejack and Rainbow's pony ears perked up as Spike looked at him like he was crazy. "What are you talking about?!" Red kept looking at the girls.

"Think back to when I was fighting this idiot..." Red pointed his thumb at Spike, earning an angry look from the dragon. "I tried to tell you guys something..."

"Something about Luna?" Rainbow asked, earning a nod from Red which made the cyan pegasus gasped. "Y-You don't mean....!"

"Yup...I don't know who set it up but she and Sombra have been meeting each other face to face a lot recently...they've set up a truce between The Sombra Mob and The Lunar Division of The Solaris Sisters..."

"Luna and Sombra?!" exclaimed Applejack. "They're workin together?!"

"She sold us out!" yelled Spike, his handcuffs rattling.

"That's not all...they got attacked by celestial members who were shouting 'kill the traitor', I don't know why but someone set Celestia up as trying to kill Luna and Sombra at the same time...so she joined him and...they're making their move tonight to take Celestia down...a war is coming and right now...we need to stop it."

"Oh, shit..." Rainbow said. "Don Celestia got set up..."

Red held up his hand. "There's more though...that fiasco at the hotel in the countryside where Rainbow got shot? Sombra and Luna didn't authorize it."

"What?" Spike exclaimed. "Those guys weren't under orders from Sombra?"

"That's what I'm saying...someone has pitted the mobs against each other and we need to set a truce before things explode....and I don't think the ones that went after Sombra and Luna were under orders from Celestia either...I just, have this strange feeling..."

"So you saying there might be a separate power? Someone who wants to kill Sombra and Luna making it look like Celestia called the hit?"

"Yes...someone wants to start a war to break out to weaken both sides."

"What the hell..." Rainbow put her hand on her head. "Then...who called the hit?"

"Well Zero found something out...she's been gathering names of all in the mafia members so we could find out who's working for who."

"I'm guessing instead of hearing what she found out, you decided to visit me at the station?" Spike asked.

"Nah, you know that flash-drive I gave to that hot-headed wolf?" Spike nodded as Red continued. "Inside the drive is a list of non-mafia members that live in the mafia territories, so I gave the list to the chiefs so they can evacuate the civilians so they won't get caught in the crossfire and since I was already here...I decided to let you all know the situation..."

"That's great an' all, but did Zero find out who's the main threat?" asked Applejack.

Rainbow looked at AJ. "Maybe Zero doesn't know who the third power is yet...the connections for trying to find out who it is is like a goddamn maze..."

Red shrugged. "Yeah..."

Just then they heard the door open behind them, they all looked and say Virtus standing there, arching an eyebrow. "The hell are you guys still doing here?"

Red turned around fully to her. "Strategizing...did that list come in handy?"

The wolf nodded. "Yeah, some guards along with my husband Dual are going around and getting civilians to safety."

Red nodded. "That's good, also I'm appalled that you don't recognize me or my sister back at the hospital."

The deputy-chief smirked and chuckled. "Oh please..." She walked up to him and pinched his cheek like a mother who constantly baby's her child. "How could I not forget that cute little fucking smartass face of yours?"

Red smiled a bit. "Good to see you haven't changed a bit..."

Virtus patted his cheek. "I'm surprised that tongue of yours is still intact after all these years..."

"I'm surprised Dual got to balls to marry your ass..." Red replied with a bit of snark.

The busty wolf put her hand on her hip. "We've been dating since we were officers and after that shootout where you became Sombra's bitch, he proposed and we've been married for 12 years...and during those years we took over the MPSG after you blew the last Chief and Deputy-Chief's heads off..."

The red pegasus crossed his arms over his chest. "Those two were on Sombra's payroll and they fucked up, they knew what was gonna happen...and Sombra's MY bitch, if you watched the CCTV once we're gone, you're gonna see."

Virtus gave a small chuckle. "Sure Prism, just keep telling yourself that."

The red pegasus started to get smart with her. "How close have you come to kill him? I've had 4 chances... the first time was simply to get across a simple rule: 'don't touch my sister and he'll live'. The other 3 was his right-hand stopping me and telling me that he had nothing to do with trying to kill my Rainbow..."

Virtus crossed her arms under her breasts. "I could kill him in the blink of an eye if I wanted to...faster than you would ever do...but I'm not going to considering you need a daddy to take care of you like that changeling chick...who I'm shocked isn't tired of your sorry ass yet."

Red smirked. "You mean the same chick who found out who's working for the mob in the entire city, along with whoever is corrupt on the mob's payroll? Also, I had ponies who tried to kill me a lot but look who's still standing?"

Virtus nodded slowly. "Just know that I was never a corrupt guard...never had been and never will be..."

The red pegasus sarcastically applauded her. "Woooow, that's amazing! But let me tell you this...you may not be corrupt, but you're not a good cop...you're a bad cop who acts like an emo chick on her period."

The busty wolf guard growled a bit in anger but she then calmly sighed, chuckling. "I'm not gonna waste my time on you, you know why? It's because you're small fry Prism..." She then walked over to Spike. "Now, would you two along with your redneck pal kindly get out so I can get this dragon into a cell?"

She unlocked Spike's table chains and put his hands behind his back, putting normal handcuffs in them, Spike grunted a bit as Red spoke with a chuckle. "Hehe, you wish...all the accounts of murder you got him on him are all self-defense."

The guard poked her head out from behind Spike and replied. "I also have that he's an associate with The Solaris Sisters Mafia Family, along with Vandalism, Obstruction of Peace, and Reckless Driving...also if it was self-defense he should've called the guards instead of running away...now would you kindly get out of my way so I can do my job?"

"You're embarrassing yourself and Dual, how many would've gone to the defense of someone being targeted by Sombra's crew? And how many would kill the kid for a measly reward of being left alone on beat downs from lower members?"

Virtus crossed her eyebrows at him. "I don't go to your place and tell you how to do your job, right Prism?"

Red shook his head. "Whatever, besides we both know his bail's gonna be paid in under an hour anyway, so let's just skip the paperwork and let him go once his bail's been paid off..."

"I mean unless you somehow got a $20,000 bail on you...this lizard isn't going anywhere."

Red chuckled. "Did you forget why Sombra was after me and Dash?" He then searched the breast pocket of his cloak and took out a big wad of cash, handing it to Virtus who looked at it with an arched eyebrow. "There's 40K in there, 20 for the bail and 20 for the overtime your men are putting in."

The wolf counted the money just to make sure and nodded, putting the cash in her back pocket. "You may be a piece of shit Prism...but you do know the meaning of the word 'business'..."

Red smirked victoriously as Virtus took out small keys and unlocked Spike's handcuffs, the drake rubbing his wrists. "Call yourself lucky Dragan, get out of here..."

"Thanks..." Spike said to Red, who just nodded, Spike's phone then started to ring loudly. "Shit..."

The dragon took his phone out of his pocket and pressed the call button, on the other line he could hear loud gunshots and sounds of screams in the background as Thorax spoke. "SPIKE!! I NEED SOME HELP!!!"

"Jesus Christ Thorax, what's happening?!"

"IT'S SOMBRA AND THE SOLARIS SISTERS!!!! IT'S A FUCKING WAR ZONE OUT HERE, COME TO MY GARAGE NOW!!!!!!"

"Alright, man! Hold tight!" Spike ended the call and looked at his three partners, mainly at Red. "It's Thorax...The Sombra Mob and The Solaris Sisters Mob are exchanging gunfire at his garage...I'm gonna need some help."

"I'm down," said Rainbow.

Applejack agreed. "Same"

Red smirked at the drake and shrugged his shoulders. "Meh what the hell, I won't mind giving you a hand."
