I was in the wake of darkness for all about two seconds, where the mare who knocked me out failed to think of was that I have been knocked out cold more times than one could count there hoof. Sharply opening my eyes and staring at the bright blue skies, I discreetly turn my head to the left to see the group of mares I was looking at earlier surrounding the cyan one 'heh'.

Wait a second, I feel my barrel with my hooves and find that my saddlebag is missing; I look at my yellow barrel the group of mares again with a frown on my face, they were going through it! well not exactly all of them were. The cyan and purple one were the main ones fondling my personal items.

The cyan one reached in again and pulled out a lanyard with my picture on it 'wait why the fuck am I sitting here and watching them go through my stuff?!' I quickly gather my bearings and push myself into the air with my wings and land gently on my feet.

''Excuse me but I would appreciate if you didn't fucking go through my stuff after you knocked me out!'' all six of them jumped; and the one with my bag got so scared she tossed it into the air along with the lanyard 'fucking great'.

My eyes slightly widen as I quickly fly up to my items and grab them both in each hoof before gravity propelled them back to the concrete sidewalk. Softly landing back on the ground, I swiftly strapped my saddlebag back onto my back and looked back at the group of mares who were now looking at me with a mixed look of shock or fear.

''What?'' I nonchalantly say as I wrap the lanyard up and place it into my bag.

Than finally one of them decides to speak up, which turned out to be the one who knocked me out ''I flew into you and knocked you straight into the ground! you should've been out for longer than a few minutes!''

I simply scoff at the statement and notice the pink one has my socks on her front hooves; ''hey!'' I push past the cyan mare and stand face to chest with the pink one and look at her face while pointing at her hooves. ''I think you have something that belongs to me'' she looked down to where my hoof pointed and gave me a confused smile '' but why would you have such frilly socks in your bag? your'e a colt aren't you? last time I checked colts don't wear socks, they mainly buy them for their marefriends; but on the other hoof'' the bitch started rambling to herself and looked up to the sky while bouncing in place.

I was pretty pissed at this whole situation, but this just fucking takes the cake. ''butthatswhatmydadtoldmeanywaysmynameispinkiepiewhatsyourname!?'' she finally stopped talking and decided to look back down at while she still bounced in place.

''Just fucking give me my socks back!'' I went to grab at them but was pulled back by my tale.

I spin around to face the orange cowpony, who was pretty muscular up close. ''Now hold on there pardner'' I put a stop to this by placing my hoof to her mouth. ''Don't try and pin all of this on me, i'm just trying to get back whats mine!'' turning back to the pink one with a hoof stretched out to her.

I guess her brain though it meant I wanted a hoof-five, how clueless is she? ''listen'' my energy was being spent entertaining these mares and I just bluntly asked for my socks back ''just.. just give me my stuff back, please? I won't get paid if I lose them''.

Her smile turned into one of confusion as she slid the socks off her hooves and hoofed them back to me; I turned to my saddlebag and open the flap with my mouth as I slid the socks in.

With a huff and a content smile I quickly unfurled my wings and slowly left the ground below and ascended into the air than quickly bolted out of there.

'Finally, geez ponies these days' I ran a hoof through my mane as I flew through the now dimming streets of manehattan in search of a place to sleep.

'I could fucking have that cyan mare arrested for assault' I finally spotted a suitable alleyway and landed on the fire escape lining the side of the alleyway. I unstrapped my bag and lightly tossed it to the side and laid my head against it as I looked up into the sky.

With a grimace, I pull out the socks from my bag and take a look at them and how they were a bit stretched out by that pink overly energetic pink mare ''uggh... now i'm going to have to waste more of of my money on new socks!''. Placing them back into the bag and letting my head fully sink into it, I close my eyes and wonder how i'll fit replacing these socks into my usual meet up with Stronghoof.

''Well there's no use worrying about it now''

''worrying about what now?'' my eyes shoot open and my body sits up before I could comprehend what happened as I banged my head against the next level of the fire escape above me.

''Fucking hell! who the hell are yo- oh, its you''. It seems that the cyan mare followed me.

''What do you want now?'' I look up to where she was hovering above me with a scowl; she rubbed a hoof behind her head and closed her eyes.

''Look.. I came here to apologize for kinda knocking you out'' I simply stared at her like she was stupid '' kinda?'' her ears lowered as she looked at me again before getting closer to my face.

''Alright! i'm sorry for knocking you out and looking through your stuff ok?!''

''O.k....?''
