(Building 902)
(local time 10:42 pm)

*GLASS SHATTERS*

A well dress pony was thrown though a glass window though a building of a office as the glass dug into the ponies flesh as blood began to pour from the wounds. Groaning in pain the pony got up to his knees as he looked at the shattered window to have his eyes widen at the sight of another being appear. Though wingless the being seemed to have a jet pack on it's back as it slowly hovered over to the pony who tried to get away but the shadowy figure's jet pack turned off causing him to land on the ponies leg with a sick snap!

*SCREAM!*

The figure placed his hand on the pony's mouth as he placed a finger where his mouth would be under the helmet.

"Shhhhhhhh!"

Grabbing the pony's tux shirt he lifted him up with ease as the pony looked at the assaulter in horror holding onto the figure arm.

"Now I'm going to say this one last time nicely...What is Fancypants planning?" The figure voice sounded mechanical yet alive, then the figure Lifted his hand of the pony's mouth.

"I-I-I-I told y-y-you I don't know!" The pony cried.

"I think you do,"

The figure held the pony though the broken window as his hooves dangling, the pony yelped as he tighten on the figure's armored hand.

"You were saying?"

The pony began to cry out of fear.

"H-h-h-he's sending someone with plans for a project!!!"

The figure tilted his head.

"What project?" He asked in his cold voice.

"I DON'T KNOW! I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL YOU THAT!"

The figure didn't move as if in thought before he spoke once again.

"Where are these plans leaving?"

"Tomorrow! He will be sending someone cuffed to the plans!" The pony cried.

Pulling the pony back in as the pony felt the solid ground under his feet he gave a smile as the figure lighten his grip

"Thank you. Your assistance is no longer required," With that the figure pushed the pony out the window as the pony screamed as he fell back.

"I'm telling you I heard something," A cop told his partner looking out the car window.

"Meh I'm sure it was nothing,"

*SLAM!*

The hood of the car caved in slightly shocking the two cops got out and went wide eyed as they saw a water employee on their car roof face down bleeding on the top dead.

"Oh shit,"

The two looked up at the shattered window to see no pony their but aware of the two the figure from before was on another roof watching the cops as his dark grey panto covered the figure, He held up his hand to reval the employee's ID card lightly covered in blood.

"One down. many more to go," He then pocket the ID in his belt before flying off into the night.

(???: POV)

I always hate coming here but this was important for me not to come in and get some Info about this courier that fancy pants was going to send out tomorrow. But bigger the crowd the more easier for me to blend into the ocean of faces but I had to find my informant in here lucky for me he was in his usual spot. Their he was a old brown earth pony with a cocked hat on his head, goggles, a rugged braided blonde beard, and red leather jacket with black leather armor on his shoulder, his brown fur was shorter than most and slightly grey for his age.

"Hondo," I kicked the bar table which the drunk was sleeping on waking the old pirate up.

"Ugh...who-" with drunken eyes he saw it was me and perked up at my cloaked body.

"AH! its you my boy. Please sit sit I get us a round, your buying though," The old man greeted

I groaned this was another reason I didn't come here, I pulled a chair around and rested my arms on the back of the chair as I looked at my old...acquaintance. A waitress came over and placed two beer mugs on the table as Hondo took his and took a large glup of his before slamming it down.

"Now my friend what brings you here?" This was the only reason I 'liked' him, he got straight to business.

"I'm looking for a boat," This caused the old pirate to laugh.

He pointed at me chuckling slightly.

"Their are plenty of boats friend more than I could keep tract of," Hondo told me.

I placed the ID on the table which caused him to shut up.

"I think you know what I'm talking about," The pirate didn't say a word as he took another gulp of beer.

Setting it down he gave me his yellow tooth smile.

"Ah yes I do remember hearing something but it seems I forgot all about it,"

I threw a bag of bits onto the table which he then placed a hand on the table to snatch it up.

"Yes yes I remember now their is a boat of fancy pant's is prepping to sail out but their one thing different that any of these water owned ships, they have added more guards to this ship. But my friend I have to ask what is this ship sending that is so important?" Hondo asked.

"I don't know but what ever it may be its important," I then got up as I pasted him my mug.

"OHOHOH I smell a nice juicy profit," Hondo said rubbing his hands.

"Which dock is it at old man?" I asked.

He grabbed my mug as he took a gulp, rolling my eyes I placed another bag full of bits on the table as he snatched it up as he placed the mug down.

"Dock 9 he leaves before lunch time," Taking the ID I placed down bites for the beer on the table before I turn around and began to walk away.

"Pleasure doing business with you my friend! Please do come again!" Hondo said with a smile waving his mug around.

I huffed, I hated working with that asshole. Before I left a pony came up to me in a long coat.

"Hey bubby want to buy some crack?" The drug runner asked getting in my way.

Not in the mod I shoved him aside.

"Not today friend,"

I walked out of the bar as hondo laughed at my action.

'I have a hunt tomorrow,'
