Prologue: Magical Bags, Mr. Plegovich

October 20th

Butter Valley

Sergei has just left one of Plegovich's Mansions. He will kill Blueblood because his boss, Mr. Plegovich, ordered him to do that.

Now, Mr. Nicholas Plegovich, the man who can control anything he wants in Equestria, is just looking at the sky through his window. He is now in a big living room, with a TV, a table and a box filled with cigars. Golden cigars.
He grabs one of them and lights it. He goes downstairs and enters his room, which only has a bed, a TV, a record player, and books. Lots of books. He opens one of them, which was on the floor, and gets out a small picture. In the photo, there is an old, red-skinned man sitting next to a young woman and three children.

"Family," whispers Plegovich. "I'll do it, father. I'll do it."

Suddenly, he hears a car stopping outside the mansion. He runs away from the room and opens the entrance door. He looks at three men carrying big bags filled with a strange powder. The boss smiles.

"I knew it," he says. "I knew you would do it!"

"Watch out, sir," says one of the men. A young, skinny, brown-haired, beige-skinned kid with a robotic right arm. He is Doom Kid, one of Plegovich's henchmen. "This is pure magic. I don't know how that Verminium guy turned magic into powder."

"Rumour has it he was so powerful he turned his magic into powder and left it in the Everfree Forest," says a lime-skinned man with a tuxedo and trainers. He is the infamous Gail Garry, a bounty hunter who turned into one of Plegovich's best friends. "Do you know what did we have to do to get these bags?"

"Yeah," says another man with a military uniform and sunglasses. He is Grigori Kobolov, a man who used to work for Equestria's army as a soldier, but met Plegovich one day and left Equestria for the mafia. His military uniform has a small tag that says: Lt. Kobolov. Equestria's Army. 2002.

These men, Kobolov, Garry, and Doom Kid, left the human world a year ago and entered the pony world to look for Verminium's magical bags. According to Equestria's old story, Verminium was a tyrant who ruled Equestria before the existence of Princess Celestia and Luna. He was so evil that he is often called The Devil in Equestrian History books. When Celestia and Luna defeated him thousands of years ago, he was sent to a lonely island in the human world and was trapped inside a statue that is inside a secure dungeon. No one knows where is this island, and plenty of people say it doesn't even exist.

However, before being defeated by Celestia and Luna, Verminium, who was a unicorn, cut his own horn and destroyed it until he turned it into just dust. Then, he put all his destroyed horn in magical bags and left them in the middle of the Everfree Forest.

"What did you have to do?" says Plegovich.

"We had to stay in a land called Ponyville for a few months," says Garry. "Then, we entered Everfree Forest. We were a long time there... it was a big place, and we have to fight to a zebra who was very annoying because every time she talked she rhymed... we were like... what the fuck? Dr. Seuss is here!"

Kobolov and Doom Kid start laughing uncontrollably. "And then..." says Doom Kid. "She told us these bags contained Verminium's destroyed horn, and it would be dangerous to use it and it was protected by princesses, blah blah blah... we almost killed her, you know? She told us so many times those bags were protected by that stupid monarchy from the pony world that we beat her up and stole the bags. Now, sir, you must take a look at this."

Doom Kid opens one of the bags and Plegovich looks at the powder. It has a light blue colour and shines a lot. "Oh my," says Plegovich. "This is truly beautiful... You are the best."

"And what do you want to do, sir?" asks Kobolov. Plegovich chuckles.

"We will go down in history, my sons... For the first time in history, we will mix... mafia and magic. For the first time in history, we will be...supergangsters. I will do what my dad wanted all his life."
