After tossing the parachute and cleaning and debris off of themselves, Silvers and Moondancer started to walk down the streets taking in the surroundings. As the two walked they eventually reached a underpass filled with various brothels and sex shops. “Well this seems fitting,” Silvers said as he reached an ATM “Place is a shithole on the ass end of an equally corrupt city.” as he typed in his bank info only to see that it said there was a report of insufficient funds. Irritated, Silvers pulled out his gun and shot the ATM screen causing the machine to spark and shoot out a few dollars before catching fire. “So much for our rainy day funds” Moondancer said as she looked away from a random hobo getting a blowjob from an overweight prostitute “Last time I was here was Spring Break my Sophomore year of college.”

After checking his phone seeing that the crew's funds were okay back in Canterlot Silvers and Moondancer continued to walk down the street. “You know anywhere we can stay for a while? Pretty sure we’re not leaving anytime soon.” Reaching some cars the two stopped as Moondancer checked her phone “Well I did have an apartment that I used to stay at with some roommates and I’m pretty sure it’s still available. But other than that we’ll need some heavy weapons to go through with this plan.” Looking around Silvers eventually spotted a nearby sedan and walked up to it. “Any idea where we can get some guns? Pretty sure most gun stores in town won’t exactly sell machine guns and rocket launchers for cheap.”

“Well they do have an Army Depot on the edge of the city on a island, but I don’t think pissing off the military is a good idea.” Moondancer said as Silvers tried opening the sedan door, only to find it unlocked. Getting in and starting the car up, Silvers took in what his marefriend said “ An Army Base? Fuck it I’m down. Let Maverick know we’re in town.” Silvers said as he pulled up the base on his phone's GPS. “Oka- wait what?” Moondancer said as she realized what she just suggested. “You’re actually serious? I was being sarcastic! Robbing an Army Depot is a very bad idea that can get us killed!” As they neared the Army Base, Silvers noticed an armed guard and a simple security gate. Not thinking it over he gunneds the throttle and rammed through the gate as the startled guard tried to draw his rifle. Swerving past the surprised guards the car eventually went through a chain link gate crashing the car into a military truck. “Well then let’s not get shot then.” Silvers said as he got out and took out three guards with headshots. Groaning in annoyance Moondancer drew her gun and took out two guards with headshots and another guard on a turret with a gutshot and a heartshot.

The two shot and fought through the depot taking down guards and collecting as many weapons as they could carry. Soon the duo reached the main hanger and took cover inside and came upon a large bomb. “I feel like this might come in handy, let’s take this with” Silvers said as a swarm of guards reached the entrance of the hanger. While Silvers took down guards with a pump shotgun and Moondancer took down turrets with a AR Rifle the sound of helicopter motors and machine gun fire filled the air as Fleur helicopters flew into the base and took down the swarm of guards. As the copters landed Silvers and Moondancer walked up to the middle one as a zebra with dark red stripes stepped out of the helicopter wearing a white and purple suit. “About time you showed up Maverick. Have the crew load this shit into the helicopters and get us out of here.” Silvers said as they entered the helicopter “Oh. And we’re taking that bomb as well.”

Nodding in approval, Maverick signalled the other members to start loading as he flew the duo to their new residence for the time. “Take it that since I didn’t see you at the airport you had a rough engterance?” Maverick said as he flew towards the east of the city. “You could say that” Silvers said as he looked out the window “Cadence’s crew jumped us mid flight. Moon and I had to bail from the place. We…….lost Hellfire in the process” Silvers said lowering his head as Moondancer rested her head on his shoulder. Sighing, Maverick brought the helicopter to a nearby building and landed on the roof and shut off the aircraft. “That’s some shit luck for him. First his family, then himself? Hope he’s giving them hell in the sky.” Soon the trio entered a lower class apartment and settled in until Maverick had to leave for a commercial filming. Some time later Silvers and Moondancer cleaned themselves up and ordered takeout food before heading into bed together to get their rest for the days ahead.

“So….They took down a military installation and took off with weapons leaving dead bodies? Impressive” Cadence said as she looked at the large monitor in her office. “Other than that what are your status reports?” She said looking at the different screens on the monitor. “So far we still have control of the city” Shining Armor said as he polished a wrestling belt. “I drained all their money from their bank accounts. Other than that I’m still searching for miss Broken Horn but she seems to be trying to hide her digital footprint.” a smaller mare wearing cyber goth attire said as she typed away as a keyboard. “And so far our side of things with the drug and sex rings have been going smoothly. Surprisingly we still have issues with our ‘pet’ and her group of hive minds but some playtime later on they’ll calm down soon enough. We might have to give her a bit more punishment as well.” Said a pink mare with a blue mane and a blue mare with a matching pink mane.

“Good. My scientists have reported that our guests have surprisingly been more cooperative lately, except the purple and orange one. We’ll give them some more time before we have them isolated and contained. I’ll have my scouts monitor the city for their leader and we’ll send them our ‘project’ for a little……..test run. Now, go back to your business.” Cadence said as she ended the call and went back to monitoring her operations.
