King of the streets to be

Leonardo Jr’s pov

"Get back here, you little fucker!"

I ran around a corner, holding onto my side as I looked around before running down a dark street. 'Damn it! I was loyal! I did as I was told! Why did you do this, brother.' I ran over to a large building and ran around it. As soon as I got to the corner, I pressed my back on the brick building. I slid down as my breathing began to become ragged. I pulled my hand away, seeing blood dripping off my hand. "God damn." I huffed as I sat there and looked up at the night sky. "God, please not like this. I don't want to die like this. I'd do anything not to die like this." I sighed as I looked around to see if either of the hitmen who were after were close. They don't seem to have come closer, so I sighed as I leaned back into the wall more.

"What would you do?"

I jumped up a little, then grabbed my side as pain shot through it. I looked around, scared as I looked for the person that the voice belonged to.

"Up here."

I blinked and looked up to see a man dressed in an overcoat with a scarf in the center of the coat. On his head sat a hat that seemed to be a top hat and bolo hat stitched together. He seemed to have two different shoes on. One house shoe and a dress shoe. He walked down the air as if there were stairs. When he touched the ground, I got a look at his face. He had a short white beard on his chin and one large canine coming out of his mouth.

"I'll give you that chance if you're willing to do some jobs for me now and then."

I didn't know this man, but I knew this was my only option at this point. “I can deal with that.”

“Good, you’ll be starting in Canterlot City, and you’ll have to work your way out. I’ll also be giving you a few gifts that will help you along the way. I’ll give you some weapons and some of the local currency as well as magic.”

“W-what?!” He smiled as he looked down at me then snapped his fingers. A flash blinded me for a second and when I could see I looked around seeing I was in the middle of an alley. I grunted as I looked around seeing normal-looking buildings. I looked down at my side and saw the wound was gone. “What the?”

“Nice right?”

I jumped up and saw the man standing there with a large safe beside him. “You!?” He smiled as he snapped a finger and the safe door opened and I saw a Thompson 1928 submachine gun. Beside it were two Colt M1911A1 and a Remington Model 870 to the right.

“All these weapons are yours and will never run out of rounds. They don’t need cleaning and they can’t be stolen. You’ll also be able to summon them by thinking or saying the name of the weapon. Doing so will make them appear either in your hand or on your side in the case of the colts. I’ve already given you healing magic, though depending on the wound it will take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. It will make it incredibly hard to kill you unless your organs and head are completely destroyed. I’ve also given you a bit of clairvoyance to see a little into the future to avoid danger when you're in trouble. You’ll also never miss a shot again. Don’t want someone that you trust shooting you again. Oh and we need to do something about your clothes and your knowledge.”

He snapped his fingers and my clothes changed. My shirt was turned into a single shirt and my coat turned into black leather coat. My pants turned into a pair of stereotypical blue jeans that a miner would wear with a brown leather belt. My shoes also turned into brown boots. I looked myself over and grabbed my hat and took it off as it vanished from my hand. It changed into a thin set of sunglasses that filled my head with knowledge as soon as I put them on. I grabbed my head as I fell back into the brick wall behind me. After a few seconds I knew that nearly a century had passed. I stood up and rubbed my head as I looked at him. “Well, this will take some getting used to but I can work with this.”

“Good, now you’ll need to find a place to sleep for the night and if you run into a girl named Sunset Shimmer tell her Princess Celestia says hello.”

I nodded as he snapped his fingers and a large bag fell at my feet. It sounded like it was full of bricks.

“There is a hundred thousand dollars. You’ve got more than enough to set up a territory of your own or you could do like most do in this city and buy a small territory. So, knowing all that you should go ahead and get moving.”

He smiled before both him and the safe vanished. I blinked as my mind tried to catch up with everything he’d told me. I looked at my hands then the bag and blinked. ‘Guess I should try it.’ I sighed as I thought of the twin colts before feeling a weight on my sides. I moved my coat to the side and saw the two colts. I smiled as I closed my coat before grabbing the bag and feeling that it wasn’t as heavy as I expected it to be. It was about the size of a basketball and I huffed as I wished I had another bag to hide this one in.

Crash!

I looked back and saw two large men coming into the alley and saw they had a woman with her mouth covered with a hand. She was dressed a little strange with jean shorts and an open top. The two men were dressed a little more like me with thick leather coats. I huffed in annoyance upon seeing them try to take her top off. I hated men like this so I started walking towards them as I took out one of my colts while hefting the bag of money over my shoulder.. “Hey!” The two men turned to look at me as I took aim and fired at the guy that was trying to take her top off, causing him to let go of her while screaming in pain as the bullet exited his left forearm. As I looked at the other man it seemed like everything slowed down and an image ran over them. He threw the woman away then reached into his coat. Everything sped back up and I aimed at him as he threw the woman away. I put two rounds in his chest causing him to fall to the ground. A Glock fell out of his hand as he hit the ground. I huffed as I walked over and saw that he was dead and the other man was trying to crawl away. I huffed then aimed at his back and fired four more times finishing him off. I waited a second then looked at the scared woman as she cowered beside a dumpster. She had hair like fire but was even younger than me. I was only seventeen for god’s sake. “You best get home sweetie, your family must be worried.” She looked at me for a second before I put my gun away and held a hand out to her. “Come on now.” She hesitated as she looked at my hand then took it. She stood up then we walked out of the alley and she picked up a black coat off the ground. She looked back at me and smiled as she looked at me.

“Thanks, but did you really have to kill them?”

I huffed then rested a hand down on my right colt. “I can’t stand bastards like them forcing themselves onto women like that.” I seemed to have caught her off guard a little. I turned then started to walk as I waved a hand. “I’ll see you around. I need to find a place for the night.” I said before stopping as I realized that I had forgotten my manners. Mother would be upset if she were here. “Ah, I forgot.” I turned around and looked at her as she stood there looking at me. I started to walk back over to her. She was shaking a little as I walked up to her. I held a hand out to her. “I forgot my manners, I’m Leonardo Jr but please call me Jr.” She smiled as she took my hand.

“Nice to meet you I’m Sunset Shimmer.”

I blinked as she took my hand. I laughed a little and she looked at me strangely. “Someone asked to let you know Princess Celestia said hello.” She froze as she looked at me and I smiled as I looked at her. “A man with a fang and red eyes brought me to this world but told me if I ran into you to give you that message.” I let her hand go and she backed up as she looked at me. I laughed as I put my sunglasses down. “Now, I need to go find a place to hold up in for a while.” I turned then started to walk. “I’m sure I’ll see you around.”

“W-wait!”

I stopped and looked at her. “Yeah?” She looked at me for a second then spoke.

“T-the apartments I live in are cheap and the landlord doesn’t care who rents an apartment as long as they pay on time. I can show you the way.”

I laughed then nodded my head. “No, a young lady shouldn’t show a stranger to her home without knowing him well. I’ll find my own way around this city.” I looked back around then started to walk again. I heffed the bag as I walked around the corner and stopped as I looked at the stores and cars around here. ‘Hm, maybe I could find a bag shop.’ I walked down the sidewalk and looked around until I saw a lot of different shops and a few restaurants.

“Hey son.”

I stopped and looked around and saw an officer if I had to guess to pull up beside me on a bike. I turned and looked at him as I lifted my sunglasses. “Can I help you sir?” He smiled as he got off the bike.

“Yeah, we got a call about gun shots and I’m looking for anyone who may have heard the shots.”

I turned all the way to face him and I smiled as I looked at him. “Yeah, I heard them, saw a guy running too.” He nodded then pulled out a notepad and pen as he looked at the notepad.

“Can you give me a description?”

I set the bag down and started to give a description. “Yeah, he had a jacket like mine and long blonde hair. He was wearing’ some old torn up jeans with some old shoes on. Maybe a little shorter than you but hard to tell with someone running that fast.” He nodded then looked up at me.

“Any visible distinguishing marks?”

I crossed my arms before shaking my head. “No, if he did have anything then it was where I couldn’t see.” He nodded then put the notepad and pen away. “Hey, can I ask you a question or two?”

“Sure.”

He looked at me with a smile. “Well I’m new to the city and don’t know my way around so I need to know where I can get a place to stay.” He blinked as he looked at me then smiled. ‘I knew this was a gamble but I need to feel out the cops in this century.’

“I see well, there are apartments cheap near Canterlot high school so you can get an apartment there fast. They’re not fancy but you can move in the same day. I could call and get you a ride so you don’t have to walk ten miles.”

I laughed then nodded as I grabbed my bag and threw it back over my shoulder. “No, I think I best start with my feet on the ground.” He nodded as he got back on his bike.

“Well son, I hope for the best for you.”

I nodded as he rode off and I pushed my sunglasses back down then looked around. ‘First thing first, I need a bag and some other things.’ I walked around for a while until I found a store and got what I needed. Now with a duffle bag full of money, some clothes, canned meats and a personal favorite sunflower seeds. I got direction to the apartments and got to the area around four o’clock. I walked into the office and looked around.

“Jr?”

I stopped and looked over and saw Sunset in a pair of sweatpants and a loose shirt. She had a laundry basket with clothes in them. I smiled as I looked at her then lifted my sunglasses. "Well, seems fate has played its hand." I laughed then walked over and smiled down at her. She seemed a little worried as she looked up at me.

"Maybe."

I smiled then pulled my bag around then pulled the zipper down. I reached in then pulled out a few hundred dollar bills. I held them out to her and she looked down at them shocked. "Take this and get something to protect yourself with. I was worried you may get in trouble again after I left." She took the cash as I zipped the bag close. I rested my hand on the bag as I walked over to an open office door. I knocked on the door even though it was open.

"Yeah?"

It was a woman’s voice. "May I come in miss?" There was silence for a second then she spoke in a confused tone.

"S-sure?"

I walked in and looked down at a woman in a purple suit with a scarf around her neck. She had nice blue eyes with slight dull blonde hair. She was a little older but was still a lovely looking woman. She waved her hand to the chair in front of her desk. I smiled as I walked over and sat in the chair. I sat the duffle bag down beside me as I looked at her. "Hello ma'am, my name is Leonardo Jr and I would like to begin renting an apartment." She smiled and sat up straight and fixed her hair as I noticed her breasts were larger than I thought a second ago. She leaned over and opened a drew and pulled so paperwork then set it down on the desk.

"Ok, sir. Rent is five-hundred for a single room a month or seven for a two bedroom. Power, water and gas are all included and the room is furnished. Anything beyond that is up to you."

I smiled then I reached over and took the paper and started to read them.

"So, are you going to be going to Canterlot high?"

I shook my head as I grabbed a pen from her desk. "No, my folks left me a good bit of money. I'll need to start making money before I can do that."

"Oh?"

I nodded as I finished my name then handed them over to her. She nodded then put the papers away before standing up and taking a key from the wall. We walked out of the office and I saw that Sunset was gone as the woman walked me to a ground floor and unlocked the door before leading me inside. She turned on the lights to reveal a nice living room and kitchen mix. There was a nice TV with a coffee table and couch and a chair in the corner. The kitchen had a wooden table and some chairs.

"This way please."

I followed her over to two doors and she opened the first one. It was the bathroom and I liked the white room with a standing shower and fancy looking sink. She closed the door then opened the second one to reveal a nice bedroom with a large bed and two nightstands with a lamp on both. A closet was across from the bed and a tv was on a dresser. I smiled as I nodded while looking at her. "This is nicer than what I'm used to." She looked back at me in surprise as I walked over to the bed. I set my bag down and sat down before looking at her as she stood in the doorway. I opened my bag then pulled out the five hundred dollars.

“Oh! You have cash that’s fine but I normally don’t take cash, though it’s fine this time.”

She walked over and bent over a little and I could see her bra. It was black lace and I laughed a little as she took the cash from my hand then folded it before slipping it into her jacket pocket.

“Rent is due at the end of each month but seeing as it’s the start of the month you're good. If you need anything feel free to come to me.”

“Yes ma’am.”

She smiled with a slight red tint to her cheeks.

“My, it’s refreshing to see a young man with manners.”

I smiled up at her then nodded as I stood up. She smiled as she set the key down on the dresser before she walked out of the apartment. Her wide hips swayed as she walked and I was grateful for that man giving me the knowledge of this era. 'Um, maybe I'll try to get with that woman.' I sighed as I stood when I heard the front door shut. I opened my duffle bag and stopped as I saw a map in the money bag. I pulled it out and saw it was a map of the city broken up in two or three dozen gang territories. 'Where am I?'

'Here.'

I heard the man's voice in my head as I green spot.

'Your in changeling gang territory. They're a small but stubborn gang under the command of a woman named Chrysalis. She's greedy but willing to work with someone if she stands to gain.'

I laughed as his voice faded then I grabbed my money bag and pulled out all but ten thousand dollars. I put the rest of the cash into the duffel bag before hiding it under the sink. I made sure it was stuck there before I walked out and grabbed my key. I walked out and locked the door behind me and looked down at the map and nodded as I folded the map up then put the map in my coat pocket. I started to walk knowing all I had to do was kick up a few back alleys. I walked back into town as the sun started to go down and I hummed a tone as I started to look around. I was looking for the place everyone one was avoiding. Soon I found it as I noticed people going around a car park with an old building in the back. I smiled as I started to walk over to the parking lot. As I got closer I saw men with black jackets with green arm bands or headbands. I walked up to the first man standing in front of the only gate. He was a few years older than me and looked at me with a raised eyebrow as I stood before him.

"You want to buy?"

I laughed then nodded my head before speaking. "No, I'd like to talk with Chrysalis. I've come with a deal."

"Oh yeah? Well tell me this deal then if I think we can do something I'll take you in."

I smiled then lifted my bag off my back and held it out to him. With a raised eyebrow he took the bag and opened it. His eyes went wide as he looked in. He looked back at me and I smiled as I looked into his eyes. "I want one of two things and you can see I'm ready to pay to get it." I held a hand out and he gave it back as he stood aside.

"Come on, the boss needs to see this."

I nodded as I followed him into the building. I saw the men and a few women of the gang drinking, smoking or showing off new knives or metal bats. 'No guns out in the open best keep an eye out for that.’ Many of them looked at us as we walked and a few of the larger men started to follow us. I huffed then moved my coat a little and flashed my colts. A few stopped seeing that I wouldn't go quietly.

"Boss!"

I looked back at the man after he yelled up at an office. A woman yelled back with anger like my father had when he was drinking.

"What do you want!?"

A second later the woman herself walked out of the office. She had long dark blue hair with bright green eyes with light brown skin. She was in a black dress that was torn up near her feet and she had on black high heels. She looked down at me and I saw the dark green lipstick she had on. She looked at me and I smirked as the man spoke.

"Boss this guy wants to talk with you and I really think you should talk to him.”

She looked at me with a raised eyebrow and I lifted the bag. “I’ve come to make a deal.” stood up and crossed her arms as looked down at me.

“How many g’s?”

“Ten.”

Everything around us stopped as she looked at me surprised. I smiled as I started to walk to the steps keeping eye contact with her as I spoke. “Like I told your man here, I’ve come for one of two things and I’m willing to put the ten down and if all goes well I can lay down another ten.” She started to smile as I was in front of her.

“I think we can work something out.~”

I smirked then we walked into the office and I closed the door and looked at her as she walked over to an old desk and she had the best light I’d seen in this run down building. I sat down and made it so she could see the guns. She stiffened for a second and I laughed as I pulled them out and held them out to her. “Didn’t know what I was walking into. Can’t blame me for that.” She laughed a little then nodded.

“Fair point.”

She took them then rolled over and set them on a file cabinet. She rolled back to her desk as I set the bag on the desk. She took it then opened it and smiled as she reached in then pulled out a stack of hundreds. She laughed as she looked at me then nodded as she looked at me.

“Ok, so you want one of two things. What are they?”

I leaned back into the chair as I looked at her with a smile on my face. “I was hoping to buy into your business deals or buy a small territory of my own. But, I’m open to negotiate if you’d like to talk. And as I said I can sweeten the deal.” She laughed as she took all the money and set it down into a drawer on the desk. She locked the drawer then leaned back into her chair as she looked at me.

“So, you want turf or a cut of our deals. I’ll admit ten grand is a great way to get in. Hell that’s more than any of my guys can make me in a year. But I can’t give you territory, we're surrounded by four larger gangs and we have to fight just to keep it. I’m willing to let you buy into the business deals though. I’m also ready to make you part of my gang and if you can prove your worth it I’ll make you an enforcer.”

I hummed as I looked at her then leaned forward and rested my elbows on the desk. “So, what percent would I take if I took this deal?” She rubbed her chain as she looked up pushing her breast up a little.

“How about thirty percent if you can do something for me.”

I raised an eyebrow as she looked at my guns. I smiled as I nodded my head as I looked at her. “Who do you want dead?” She smiled as she looked back at me.

“I want the leader of the gang to the north killed. He’s a man in his thirties named Sombra."

She seemed to want this and I saw my chance. “How about this I’ll take fifteen percent and we split his territory.” She seemed to be thinking about it. I smiled as I stood then walked around and grabbed my guns. "I'll give you a few days to think about it." I put the guns back into my side holsters and as I turned to leave she spoke.

"Wait a minute then go out the back door the cops will ride by every hour or so."

I nodded then leaned back into the file cabinet. "Ok, so tell me what is your main business?" She turned to face me and smiled as she looked up at me.

"Mostly we deal in weed and blackmailing. On occasion we deal in some heavier stuff."

I nodded then looked out the window of the office. "So, when was your last fight with this Sombra guy?" She sighed as she spoke.

"About a week ago we won the fight. But, we lost a few members."

I nodded as I stood up then started to walk. "Well, I'm off to find this guy." I walked out the door before she could say anything. I walked back down and saw the man from before. I walked up to him and he smiled as he looked at me.

"Sup?"

"Any cops out front?"

He nodded then looked back at the now closed gate.

"Came by not long ago but I'd wait a few more minutes before going out."

"It will be fine." He shrugged then waved for them to open the gate. I nodded to him then walked out. I put the hook out just had to wait and see if she bites. I started to walk down the street and stopped once I got around the corner then stepped into the shadows. A few minutes later two of the changelings walked around the corner. Once the two were close I stepped out of the shadows stopping the two. "You two really shouldn't be following people around like you are." I pulled out my colts and smiled as I looked at the two. They backed up as I tapped the berrale of my right colt on my thigh. "I'll give you both a break for today. But, if you'd like to try your luck.” They looked at one another then turned and ran off. I laughed as I holstered my guns then nodded my head before I walked off. As I walked I smelled something I loved. I looked around and smiled as I spotted an italian restaurant. Without my old man's turf war with the Gambinos I could get some pasta again. I pulled out a hundred I had left after buying the stuff from before. Smiling, I walked across the street. I saw the landlord looking at the restaurant longingly. "Hey landlord!" She looked back at me and I smiled as I walked up. "Guess I'm not the only one out looking for good food." She nodded as she looked back at the restaurant and I looked at the name. "Little Italy. Not a bad name." She nodded and sighed as she crossed her arms.

"Yes but it's thirty dollars a plate."

I laughed then nodded my head as I walked up to the door then looked back at her. “Do you want spaghetti with meat sauce or lasagna?” She blinked as she looked at me then smiled as she looked at me.

“If you're offering, spaghetti with meat sauce would be great.”

I nodded then waved for her to follow me.

Thirty Minutes Later

I hummed a tone as I sat in my office with Jr sitting in the chair across from me eating his own plate of spaghetti. I laughed as he wiped his mouth with a paper towel. He looked at me and I smiled as I set my fork down. “You know, you're an old breed in this day and age.” He looked at me and blinked as I laughed a little again. “This is nice, it’s been years since the last time I’ve seen kindness like you’ve shown me.”

“Haha, I guess I don’t act like a lot of people my age. My mother always wanted me to treat people right. My father gave a great example of what not to be.”

He frowned as he looked away and sighed as he closed the top of his to-go plate.

“This was nice but I’ve lost my appetite.”

He stood up and walked out of my office. I wanted to say something but what could I say to that. I sighed knowing I may have just opened an old wound. ‘Nice going Whinny a nice guy and you go and do that.’

“Hey, Miss Harshwhinny are you ok?”

I looked up at my door and saw Sunset. I nodded as I looked at her. “Yes Sunset, But I’m afraid I may have upset Jr. We spoke a little about his family and it seemed to upset him."

"Don't worry about it too much. Jr doesn't seem all that bad so I'm sure he'll be fine soon enough."

I smiled and nodded as I looked back down at my dinner. "Yeah, he seems like a really nice guy." Sunset nodded before walking away as I started to eat again.

Leonardo Jr’s pov

Two Days Later

I walked down the street in this Sombra guy’s territory and hummed a tone. My colts were on my waist as I stopped upon reaching the street that Chrysalis's men told me Sombra’s hideout was on. They would help me, but I thought it would be better to show my worth by taking out Sombra and his goons by myself. There stood the hotel. It was a large hotel with a large tiger sign on the front of the building. There was a group of men standing guard outside of the hotel. I walked up to them before stopping a couple of feet away from them, which caused a few of them to stare at me.

"What do you want, kid?" One of the guards asked, causing me to smile as I drew my colts from the holsters under my jacket.

"Just Sombra's head." I rushed them as a few of them tried to pull weapons. I pointed the colts at them and started firing. After a minute, I took out the front men and laughed as I kicked the door in, scaring the men and women in the lobby. Time slowed down, and I saw something coming around the right side of my head. I ducked just in time to avoid getting whacked in the back of the head with a bat. I turned and aimed at the guy's chest. I put three in his chest, and he fell dead to the floor as women started to scream. I let them run, knowing they wouldn't get to the police. This was a drug and prostitution ring they'd bury themselves.

"Ah!"

I moved back as a man tried to stab me. I put one of my colts against his head and blew a hole through it. He fell to the ground and I looked around as I heard rushing feet. I ran over to the hotel bar and jumped over. I saw a pump-action shotgun and smiled. I holstered my guns then grabbed the shotgun as a door slammed into a wall. I stood and saw a few men, all with guns. I fired and riddled them with pellets. They screamed as I emptied all the shells and ran around the bar. A second later, my Thompson machine gun was in my hands as they started to fire. I took cover behind a stone column, waiting. I ran out of cover once the gunfire started to slow, spraying them with bullets as I ran. I watched the bodies fall as I ran around some couches. I jumped over the check-in counter and got down as they fired. Bottles above me exploded, throwing glass and booze everywhere.

"Fuck, there are a lot of these bastards. Climbing this place is going to be a real pain in the ass." After a minute, the bullets finally stopped, and everything slowed down. Images from both sides, and I smirked. I love this power. I grabbed the desk and jumped as two men came into view. I riddled the one on the right then kicked the goon on the left. He slammed back into the wall before getting riddled with holes a second later. I turned and strafed the room again, killing another three. I looked to see that they were the last in this room. I nodded and looked around. I stopped as I looked at the body next to the door. I saw a grenade in his hand. "Oh, a little gift." I grabbed the grenade as I switched back to my colts and drew my right colt as I walked up a set of steps. The hotel was only three floors tall and didn't have a fire escape, so he was trapped. Two men threw the door at the top open, and I saw a better-dressed man in the middle of the two.

"Boss!"

The man on the right shoved him back through the door as I opened up on the two. The man on the left dropped in a matter of seconds and the one on right fell back onto the floor. I was half sure I hit Sombra's leg as one of his goons shoved him. I walked up the steps and put two more rounds in each as I reached the top. I spun the colt on my finger as I looked around, and I saw a small blood trail. "Guess I grazed him." I started to follow the trail and stopped at the heavier looking door in the back. I put my back to the wall and grabbed my colt, then blew the door handle off. I pulled the pin with my teeth then threw in the grenade. It blew, and I heard a scream turn into a gurgle. I walked in and saw that the window had been blown out, and Sombra’s right leg and side were ripped to shreds. I walked over to him and saw he had a golden-colored thirty-eight. He tried to lift it, but I stomped his hand back down. "Chrysalis said to have fun in hell." Was all I said before putting a round through his eye. His body went limp and I smiled as I reached down and took his gun. I spun it around my finger and it glowed a second before I heard the man’s voice.

"You've unlocked the golden thirty-eight. It will be added to your weapons safe for future use."

I smiled as my colts vanished, and a new holster appeared on my side. I slipped it into the new holster and grabbed his clothes. I dragged his body to the steps, blood, and brains falling from his skull as I pulled him along. I kicked him down the steps and laughed as I looked down at the corpse. I walked down the steps and drew the thirty-eight as I saw a shadow moving around on the bottom level. I put my back to the wall and listened in, before hearing a voice that I knew all too well.

"There's no way he did this alone."

I smiled and nodded as I walked out and saw Chrysalis and some of her men. She looked at me, and I leaned on the door as I looked at her. "Yall missed all the fun." Chrysalis looked at me in shock as I reached down and picked Sombra's head up by his hair. I smiled at her as I tapped his gun against his head. "Got him." She blinked and I spun the gun around my finger as I looked at the men in the room. "Hey guys, have a look around. I’m sure they have money or drugs or something else here."

"You got it."

They quickly moved into the stairwell and laughed as I walked over to Chrysalis. I holstered the gun and crossed my arms. Chrysalis seemed impressed as she looked at me. "So, which deal are we going to make?" She laughed as she nodded her head.

"Fifteen percent and we’ll take the south of this hotel. You can have it from here to the river which is the end of his territory a good six to ten miles around this hotel. But later on, I'd like to talk about what deals we can make from this change in power." I nodded and looked at the door.

"Guess my next step is to take everything over." I walked outside with a smirk, since I knew that someone had already gotten the word out. I knew there would be some who would fight and some who would quickly try to become my favorite bastard. I walked out of the hotel and, sure enough, a few of the women were back and had more men with them. I drew the gun and flashed it. "I own this territory now and so you all have a choice to make." The women seemed scared, and a few of the men backed up a little. “Join me or we can fight it out. Everyone who wants to join me, drop your weapons and get me a new hideout. Those who don’t, step up and I’ll be happy to deal with you.” No one did, and I smiled as I spun the revolver around my finger. They slowly put their weapons on the ground, and I smirked.

"What do we do about the bodies, new boss?"

I looked over at a woman with light purple hair in a skimpy dress. "Leave them; we’re moving from this place to wherever else he does business. The cops should be on the way by now. Two of you come to the changeling headquarters tomorrow noon sharp and take me where I'll be setting up shop."

"Yes, boss."

They quickly did as they were told and ran off. I looked back at Chrysalis's jaw hanging open. I smirked, then walked over and closed it with the barrel of my new gun. I holstered it as she looked at me. I moved the hair from her face, and she blushed a little. I laughed as I started to walk around the building and, sure enough, I found a fucking 1970 mach one ford mustang. It was a beauty with dark cherry paint and a black leather interior. A man stood beside it with a trembling smile on his face.

“Y-your car, sir.”

I smiled then walked over, and he gave me the keys. I got in, started her up, and heard those horses sing as I revved the engine. I pulled out and rolled my window down when I saw Chrysalis getting into an old beat-up Toyota. I smiled at her then nodded my head. She smiled, then got out of the Toyota, walked over, and sat in the front passenger seat. She relaxed into the seat and sighed before looking at me.

"You and I are going to do well."

I smiled as I started to drive. 'I'll drop you off at your headquarters, and then I'll be going riding." She smiled and nodded as I drove down the street.

Two Hours Later

I walked down the street annoyed at my old car for dying on me not a week ago. I stopped at a crosswalk. I lifted my leg and played with my heel. The pain from the walking started to annoy me. I heard a car come up alongside me.

"Miss Harshwhinny?"

I looked over and saw Jr in a mustang looking up at me. "Jr? When did you get a mustang?" He laughed then waved for me to get in. I was glad to get off my feet. I looked around and didn’t see anyone looking. I got in with a sigh as I took all of the weight off my feet and set my purse down beside my feet. I leaned back into the seat as Jr started to drive. “So when did you get a car?” I looked at him, and he smiled as I turned, heading for the way I needed to go.

“It was my old man. I had it brought back from my old home city. But I have to ask, why were you walking in high heels?”

I blushed as I rubbed my arm then looked at the window. “My car died, and I had to get to the doctor’s office.”

“Oh, well, I could drive you around if you need. Not like I have anything else to do.”

I looked at him and saw he was smiling as he looked at me. I was speechless, not believing what I was hearing. “Y-your serious?” He nodded as he turned, and I saw he had driven us to the local hospital.

“I’ll go get us some lunch while you’re here. I'll be back in an hour.”

I looked at him for a second, and I was very tempted to pull him into a hug. “You're a blessing.” He laughed, then nodded his head to the hospital.

“Go on now.”

I smiled and grabbed my purse as I got out. I smiled as I started to walk to the door and put a little sway on my hips. ‘Maybe I should get to know him better.~’

Jr’s pov

I smiled as I watched her sway her ass as she walked through the door. “Damn, if I was just a few years older.” I laughed, knowing I was going to try either way. Playing nice with her was a great play on my end, knowing I was getting onto her good side. ‘Still need to deal with Sunset as she knows what I am like.’ As I drove for the Italian restaurant, I saw the girl herself walking with a group of girls into a bakery. I smiled as I pulled off and into the parking lot next to the bakery making sure she saw me. They all looked at me as I parked and got out. I fixed my jacket and pushed my sunglasses to look at them. Sunset looked at me, shocked as I walked over and waved at her. “Sup Sunset, I guess you hear this bakery is good too.” She nodded, and I laughed before I opened the door for the girls. “I’ve got you covered this time since I need to talk to you anyways.” She nodded, and all the other girls looked between us before they walked into the bakery. I smiled as I sent my revolver away as I walked in. All the girls went up and ordered their sweets. I came up last behind Sunset and ordered a giant cookie, and she told me it would be fifty dollars. I pulled out my wallet and pulled out one of the hundreds I had. She thanked me before turning to get me my cookie. She wrapped it in wax paper then held it out to me. I smiled, then took the cookie from her and walked over to the table next to the curious girls. A light purple-haired woman smiled as she set a plastic fork down then spoke to me.

“So, sir, how do you know our friend?”

I gave her a small smile then nodded over to sunset. “We're living in the same apartment complex, and she was the first person I met when I came to the city. To be honest, I was hoping to get her to show me around the city. And, with my old man’s car out of storage, I can drive around the city to see what’s going on.” A girl with Rainbow colored hair spoke up as she looked at me.

“About that car, it’s sweet. Do you think I can give her a spin when we leave?” I laughed as a girl dressed like a cowgirl pulled her back down into her seat.

“Rainbow, you don’t even have a license yet.”

I laughed, then pulled the keys out and tossed them over. “You can sit in it but don’t start it.” Rainbow smiled and jumped up, running out of the bakery the cowgirl behind with a girl with pink hair right behind them.

“Sorry about them, Jr.”

I looked at Sunset, and she smiled as a purpled-haired girl pulled out a book. I looked at the last girl, and she was hiding behind her light pink hair, and good god, she had a rack. She was almost as well-endowed as Harshwenny.

“So, where were you looking to go?”

I looked at Sunset and smiled as I unwrapped the cookie as I talked. “Well, I need to find some work, and I need to open a bank account.” Sunset nodded, and as expected, I heard the engine roar. “She doesn’t listen well, does she?”

“No.”

Sunset and the purple-haired girl said at the same time. I sighed, then stood up and took my jacket. Sunset looked at my sides and saw I didn’t have my guns, and she relaxed as I smiled down at her. “Don’t worry. I only act that way when I need to.” She nodded her head; the other two didn’t seem interested in what I was saying. I walked over to the door and saw them flailing their arms. My left eye twitched as I looked at them. I sighed as I started to walk over to the car. When they saw me coming they stopped all the jumping around but I knew that they hadn’t found anything. I had the whole thing cleaned making sure no drugs or weapons were in the car. I walked up to the driver's side window as Rainbow pulled the keys from the ignition. I tapped the window and she rolled it down with a nervous look on her face. I held my hand out and she put the keys in my hand before I let her out. She quickly walked around me as the cowgirl got out but the pink-haired girl bounced in the back seat. I leaned into the door and looked at her as she bounced in place, causing the car to bounce.

“HI!”

I frowned and had a feeling this one was going to be trouble. “If you like, I’d be happy to take you for a ride later but please stop bouncing. I don’t know how good the shocks are.”

“Okie dokie!”

She stopped and climbed out the passenger door. She hopped back to the bakery and I huffed as I closed the door and locked it. I smiled knowing that Sunset must have gotten my point. I turned and went to finish my cookie before I had to go get Harshwhinny.

The Next Day

I smiled as I watched the Changelings party in their warehouse. They were excited about moving to the new base of operation. “Damn, I think they may be going a little too far.” I heard Chrysalis laughing, and I looked away from the window and saw her looking at me.

“What did you expect? We're moving from this beat-up old warehouse and into a new hotel in the area we took from Sombra’s former territory.”

I smiled then nodded as I looked back to the large doors. ‘My new gang should be here soon. I think the first thing I’ll do is purge the gang of anyone I think won’t listen to me. I will be doing away with the prostitution ring and make rules about who they can sell to. I’ve heard the stories about teens overdosing or getting killed by others for what they had. I know it will hit my profits some, but I think it’s the best action to take.’

“What’s going on in your head?”

I looked back at her and smiled as I nodded my head. “Don’t worry. It’s nothing that’s going to mess with your business. Besides, I’m a man of my word. I won’t mess with you or your deals from here on out. Anything beyond our deal is all you.” I smiled as I watched the doors open, and sure enough, a man and a woman walked in. “And there is my gang.” I stood up then grabbed my jacket off the coat rack. “I’ll be getting a cell phone later today. I’ll be coming by to get your number.” I smiled at her, and she gave one back before I walked out. I walked down and looked at the two. The man wore a white suit and had dark blue hair with light blue highlights. The woman was in a dress and had on light make-up. She had light skin and pink hair with purple and gold highlights. The man looked me up and down with an annoyed look on his face. I smiled then pulled out the golden gun, gaining their attention. “I will not tolerate dissent. You feel like trying your luck; please try it, and when I have you in a puddle of blood, I’ll take your woman here.” He looked at me and uncrossed his arms, as I pulled the hammer back.

“Shining!”

The woman grabbed the man’s arm, before she looked me in the eye.

“We’re in charge of gathering more members and finances. We’ve yet to find a new place to run the business, but we’ve brought this month profits.”

She turned and yelled for someone. A minute later, two men came in with two briefcases each. I smiled as they walked over to a table and opened them as I walked over. I saw stacks of twenties in one of the briefcases and stacks of hundreds in the other. I laughed as I walked over and grabbed a stack of hundreds. I patted the stack on my hand then looked back at the woman. “How much is here?” She cleared her throat, looking around before she spoke.

“A little under nine-thousand dollars, which is a little more than the last few months thanks to the expansion into protection fees.”

I nodded and took out a few stacks of hundreds before tossing them over to her. She caught them and looked back at me. “Take that and get new weapons and see how much it will cost to buy a house in the city.” She nodded, and they all quickly left the warehouse. I smiled and laughed a little more, then looked at the shocked men around me. I smiled, then pulled out a few stacks of twenties. “Go have some fun, guys!” I threw them over to some of them, and they erupted in yells. I closed the briefcases and headed for my car. I walked around the corner and stopped as I looked at my car, seeing Sunset sitting on the hood. She frowned as she looked at me, and I sighed. I knew that this had to come sooner or later. I walked up to her with all four briefcases in hand. “You found me a lot sooner than expected.” She huffed and jumped off my hood.

“When Rainbow told me the gangs near her house were fighting more, I knew someone had kicked the hornet’s nest. If it makes you feel better, you weren’t my first guess. But, I have to ask if you’re the one who took over Sombra’s territory.”

I smirked and nodded as I set the money down on the hood. “Yeah, it was me who wiped out most of the leadership. I’ll be making rules about who they can sell to. If crime can’t be stopped, why not control it. But, we have a problem now.” I pulled out my colt and set it on the hood as I looked back at a now scared Sunset. “Relax, woman. I’m not going to hurt a hair on your head. I’ve never raised a hand to a woman in my life. I’m not about to start now. This is for the guys that I know are coming after me. I know for a fact someone somewhere is going to do something. But, now the problem is the fact that I have a woman who knows who I am and who has and is going to gain more power.” She blinked and smiled as I stood up and opened the briefcase before taking out a few stacks of hundreds. “Tell you what, I need more information on the city. You and your friends live around the city, and you know stuff. Where to go, where not to go, I need that. I’m happy to pay for the information.” I held up a stack of two thousand dollars, and she looked at it. “I can make it a monthly deal. I think we can do, and I don’t know, eight hundred a month? There’s rent and then some to go into the bank. Plus this little starting bonus.” She looked at me then back to the cash.

“Do you plan to keep the prostitution ring going?”

I shook my head as I looked at her. “No, I’m going to close that route down and have the drug ring shrink as I’m going to tell them not to sell near schools and parks anymore.” She smiled, then grabbed the stack, and I held it when she tried to pull it from my hand. She looked back at me, and I narrowed my eyes as I looked at her. “Don’t make me regret this, Sunset.” She nodded, and I let the stack go before waving her over to the passenger door. “Come on, I need to get home, and I’m sure you don’t want to be caught out here.” She nodded and slipped the cash into her jacket before getting in. I grabbed my colt, then walked around and threw the briefcases in the trunk. I got into my seat and started up the engine. “Do you want something to eat?” She looked over at me, and I smiled as I looked at her.

“Um, sure.”

I smiled then pulled out of the alley and onto the street. I put my colt back onto my side, and as I drove, I looked at her out of the corner of my eye.

“So, I think we’re more alike than you think. I’m not going to question your past if you don’t question mine.” She smiled then leaned back into the seat.

“You know I think you should enroll at canterlot high. You’re what? Seventeen? Eighteen years old?”

“Seventeen but, I don’t have school records nor anything else I’d need to enroll.” She laughed before she rolled down the window making her hair wave in the air.

“I can handle that, I just need another few hundred dollars, and you’ll have what you need in a few hours.”

I raised an eyebrow and looked at her out of the corner of my eye. “Someone’s already dancing in this world?” She laughed and smiled as she looked over at me.

“Well, Rainbow’s parents are good friends with the school district’s superintendent. I gave them a few gold coins, and I was enrolled not five hours later.”

I laughed and smiled as we stopped at a red light. “Why don’t we head over? I may want to give him some work if he’s well connected.” She smiled then nodded her head to the right.

“Turn right and go straight for four miles, then make a left. We’ll go ten more miles, and then you’ll see a neighborhood coming up on the right.” I smiled and did as she said. It took us thirty minutes to get there, but we soon turned into a neighborhood. It was a nice place with large houses with fenced backyards. “Which one is their house?” She looked around then pointed down the street.

“That blue one on the right.”

I looked over and saw the deep blue house on the right. I saw Rainbow come flying out of the door as I pulled up.

“Jr!?”

Sunset laughed as I opened the door to get out. Sunset got out as Rainbow looked at me, a smile on her face.

“Did you come to give me that ride?”

I smiled as I looked at the excited smile on her face. “Okay, okay. Sunset, would you mind waiting here for us to come back?” She laughed as Rainbow jumped into the passenger seat.

“I’ll have a talk with him and his wife for you.”

I nodded, then got into the driver’s seat and started up the engine.

Sunset‘s pov

I watched them drive off, and I smiled as I looked back at the door. Windy looked down at me, a smile on her face.

“Got some more business for us?”

I smiled as I walked over to the bottom of the steps. “Yeah, I need the same as before but this time for the guy who just drove off with Rainbow in the mustang. He needs all the same stuff I did. License, school records, and a passport couldn’t hurt. He’s got the cash on hand if you can do it.” She laughed then waved for me to come in. I walked into the house, and Bow came down from the second floor and saw me.

“Oh! Sunset, it’s been a while. What brings you here this time?”

Windy spoke up as she walked over to the sofa.

“She’s got more work for us, Bow. This time for the boy that Rainbow just took off within a nice mustang.”

Bow nodded as we walked into the living room and sat down. Bow sat down beside Windy and sat on the loveseat on the other side of the living room.

“Ok, so what is he looking for? New life? School information?”

“Same things I needed, and he has the cash to pay in full.”

He smiled and nodded before we heard the engine roar again. I looked out the window and saw the back end of Jr’s mustang going down the street. “Seems like Rainbow wants to see how fast that car is.” They laughed as I looked back at them.

“That’s my girl! A need for speed is in her blood.”

I nodded as I looked back at the two. “Knowing Jr, it won’t last long. Oh, and before I forget, he’s the one who took over everything by killing Sombra and taking over this area.” Their smiles dropped, and Bow leaned forward.

“You telling us that kid is the one who slaughtered the whole upper level of control of this area?”

I smiled as I leaned back into the sofa and pulled out the small stack of hundreds, then set it on the coffee table. “Yep, and he’s offered to make me part of the new information chain, and he’s looking for info brokers. You two got dirt on a lot of people from your old lives. He’s willing to pay for what we all know. I got a feeling sticking with his is a safe bet, so I’ll be sticking by him. Betraying him seems like a death sentence, so I’d keep my mouth shut.” After I finished, the door opened, and Rainbow walked back in with a smile on her face. I quickly grabbed the cash and stuffed it back into my jacket.

“So you're really going to enroll in Canterlot High?”

“Yeah. Sunset told me it was the closest school besides Crystal Prep, but I’m not going to some study school.”

“Say would you give me lifts home if you do? I hate riding the bus every day to and from. And maybe Flutters too. She lives a little farther from the school.”

Jr shrugged as they walked into the living room.

“I don’t see why not.”

He sat down beside me as Rainbow ran up the steps. Jr dropped his smile once we heard a door close. He crossed his leg as he leaned back into the loveseat and crossed his arms.

“So has Sunset explained everything?”

They nodded, and I smiled as I pulled out two stacks of cash. One of the twenties and one of the hundreds. “You get six hundred in twenties now and two thousand in hundreds once I have everything in hand.” The man smiled and nodded before standing up.

“I’ll get the calls started.”

I smiled then threw over the twenties. He caught them and smiled as I walked over to the kitchen and put the cash into the cabinet. He grabbed the house phone and started to dial some numbers. I smiled as I stood then looked at Sunset. “Do you have a cell phone?” She nodded, then pulled out a touchscreen phone, a galaxy, I think. I nodded, then looked at the mother. “We’ll be back in four hours. If anything happens or we need to make a change, call Sunset.” She nodded and stood up to walk us to the door. I nodded my head as Sunset stood. “We’ll see ourselves out. You need to talk with your husband if you’re going to take my deal or not.” She nodded and waved as we walked out of the door. I smiled as I looked back at Sunset. “I know what you're thinking, but you're wrong.” She blinked and nodded as she looked at me.

“What do you mean?”

I laughed as we walked up to the car. “I’m not going to threaten anyone if this falls through. Rainbow has no part in this, and I won’t try and catch her in the blast radius if something happens.” She nodded, and we got in and started to talk once we were in the car.

“So, what are you really after? What do you want to gain from everything?”

I looked at her for a second, then nodded as I started the car and backed out. “You don’t need to know that Sunset. Your job is just to gather information.” She looked at me, and I sighed as I put the car into drive. “You’ll be safer if you don’t know what I’m planning. I don’t want you to get caught in the blast zone when I drop the nuke.” She nodded, and I turned us back onto the main road.

“So, can you at least tell me if you’re from Equestria?”

I looked at her confused, and she seemed to be relieved. I looked forward again as she laughed a little.

“Yeah, I guess I shouldn’t have asked you about it. Seeing as I don’t think you know what I’m talking about.”

Nodding, I turned right onto the main street, heading for the mail. I sighed as I looked ahead, but Sunset spoke up.

“Is that Miss Harshwinny?”

I looked to the left, and sure enough, Harshwinny was waving at us as she walked down the sidewalk. I smiled and looked at the back, and there was room. “I think she’d like a ride. Do you mind getting in the back?” She nodded, then climbed over the center console and sat down behind the passenger seat. We pulled off, and I was right as Harshwinny got in but seemed a little annoyed when she noticed Sunset.

“Oh, hello, Sunset. How are you today?”

Sunset smiled as she spoke.

“Fine, I was going to help Jr pick out a phone. Plus, it’s nice not to be stuck on a bus.”

I could see the tension between the two and nodded as I drove. “So where were you going, miss Harshwinny?” She smiled at me, and I felt my blood run a little cold, almost like when I was running for my life.

“Oh, I was coming back from a meeting with some people from the city trying to buy my apartment complex. They’ve done this three times now, and every time I have to argue with them about why I’m not going to sell.”

I nodded, and I smiled as Sunset told me to turn right. I saw the mall coming up, and I took the next right. After a minute, I found a parking spot. We all got out, but I noticed Harshwhinny giving Sunset a nasty look out of the corner of her eyes. Sunset hadn’t seen it, but I had, and I was a little worried after seeing that look. I acted like I hadn't seen it as we walked into the mail. Harshwhinny walked with us until we reached the phone store. She said she needed to go and get a few things and asked for a ride back to the apartment. Sunset went off on her own to look for a few things herself. I was happy to see them going in opposite directions and hoped they wouldn’t meet up or at least not fight like kids. I walked into the store and saw phones lining the display racks. I looked around and stopped as I saw a Galaxy A Eleven and Ten.

“Do you need some help?”

I looked to the right and saw a large man with torn-off sleeve. He had a big mohawk and wore a pair of black pants. He had a large nose ring with a headset on. I smiled and nodded as I looked at him. “Yeah.”

Three Hours Later

I smiled as I walked through my new place of business and smiled as I watched my people moving around. Jr had given us a chance for a real power base. I smiled then walked into the VIP room. I looked over at the desk and saw the map Jr had lent me. I walked over and looked down at it and stopped when I saw that the image had changed. It showed that my area had grown and Jr’s area had turned black. “What the hell?”

A Week Later

Leonardo Jr’s pov

I smiled as I sat at my table with Sunset sitting across from me, helping me fill out the paperwork for the school. “So when were the girls coming over to your apartment again?” She looked from the rule book then looked over at the clock I put on the wall.

“They’ll be here in an hour. You know you’re free to come over too. I know Rainbow would love to hang out with you.”

I looked up from the paper I need to fill out for my classes to see a smirk on her face. I laughed, then nodded my head before I looked back down to the papers. “It will never happen. Rainbow’s nice, but there is no way I could deal with the madness I saw when I was driving her around. I think the one I have to worry about the most is the bouncing pink-haired girl. Besides, Chrysalis is coming over with a few of her guys to give me this month’s payment for our deal.”

“Pinkie Pie is her name, and more than likely, she’s going to jump you with a party sooner or later. She's charming, so you don’t need to worry about her.”

“Sure, oh, and I did some looking around. What was is the everfree camp trip.”

I heard her stop writing as she hummed.

“I think it’s a field trip that we’re going on at some point. We can worry about that later on. How have things been going on your side of your gang? Things have been quieting down over the last few days.”

I nodded as I finished the sheet then stretched my back. “For the most part, we’ve cleared out the last of the holdouts. I’ve also talked with Wendy and Bow about keeping their ears to the ground about anything.”

‘Knock’ ‘Knock’

“Speak of the devil.”

I stood then walked over to the door and opened the door to see the lady herself. She smiled as I let her in and nodded up to the big guy, and stopped when I saw another woman in a dress. She looked like Chrysalis but younger and blonde with slightly lighter skin. I let her in while wondering if she’s an enforcer of the gang or another partner. She walked over to the couch as I closed the door. I sat down in my chair, and Sunset walked out of the kitchen. She’d taken her jacket off, and for the first time, I got a good look at her in non-baggy or tight clothes. She had on a purple tank top with spaghetti straps with a red and yellow half sun. She also had a spiked choker around her neck.

“Hey, Sunset, you can go home if you want; we can finish the papers later.”

“Okay, remember the girls would like to see you.”

I nodded, and she walked out of the apartment. I looked back and saw the guy smirking as he looked at me.

“Some ass you got there.”

I raised an eyebrow as I looked at him. “Oh no, she's nice, but I don’t mix pleasure and business. Nothing but trouble no matter what you do.” Chrysalis nodded, and the blonde girl laughed into her hand as she looked at me. I rolled my eyes and flipped her off, making her laugh more. I smirked and looked at Chrysalis, who smirked as she looked at me.

“I see you and my younger sister are at least getting along. Now, I have your money ready in the car, but I need to ask you about something.”

I nodded, and she opened a handbag on her right arm; she pulled out the map and set it down on the table. I saw it had changed to reflect the new territories, and the colors had changed. “Ok, why did you change the map?” I looked at her as she nodded her head.

“I haven’t changed it. It changed itself. Your territory has even grown a little all in the same areas your gang was taking control of on the edge of the surrounding territories.”

I blinked, not knowing the map was going to change when the leaders did. I looked up at her and crossed my arms as I looked at her. “Yeah, I have no idea. A man gave me this map before I came to this city. He was strange, but this is on another level.” Chrysalis nodded, and I sighed, then took the map and threw it over onto a small table beside me. “I’ll figure it out sooner or later. Now, how are you settling into the hotel?” The others smiled as Chrysalis spoke.

“It’s so nice to have air and power all around instead when we could get away with that old generator.”

I nodded and stood up. “Who wants drinks?”

“Me.”

“If you wouldn’t mind.”

I nodded, then walked into the kitchen. I came back out a minute later, four cans of cream sodas in hand. They all took one and started to open the cans as I sat back down. “Now, next time, I think I’ll be getting an office or something. They still haven’t found me a new building, and I’m getting sick of waiting for one.” Chrysalis nodded and started talking as I cracked open the can.

Sunset pov

I hummed a tune and walked up the stairs to my apartment. I swayed my hips as I hummed a little more before I pulled my keys out. I opened my door and closed the door, and turned on my lights. I set my jacket down on the chair I bought since my furnished chair was too hard on my back. I sighed as I moved my hair back as I looked around. I kept my apartment clean but knew with the girls coming over; it was going to be trashed fast. ‘Maybe if Jr does come, he can help me clean up.’ I walked into my room and turned on the lights, and headed over to my dresser. I opened the top drawer and reached under, and grabbed my cash stash. I pulled it out and looked at the last of the cash I had from selling the last of my bits. I sat it was almost gone with maybe only a fifteen hundred left. I smiled as I added the twenty-eight hundred Jr gave me as my start-up bonus and the eight hundred for my first month’s pay. “At least this came along before I got desperate.” I put all the money back in place and closed it. I sat down on my bed and ran my hands over my face as I sat there. I let my hands fall to my lap as I sighed. Now that I had a second to think, I started to worry a little. “What did I get into with him? Jr is a dangerous man, and he has the leader of the changelings in his apartment. But, he’s a fair guy at times, and he did save me from getting raped.” I sat on my bed for a few minutes until I heard knocking coming from my front door. I smiled, happy to put my worries aside and spend some time with my friends. I stood up and walked to my door. I opened the door, and I was happy to see the girls. Pinkie even had a cake.

“Hey, Sunset, how are you today?”

I smiled at Twilight as they walked in. “I’m good; I was helping Jr not too long ago. He’s going to be starting school with us next month.”

“Really?!”

We looked over at Rainbow, and she blushed as she rubbed the back of her head.

“Sorry, I just think it’s cool we’ll all be going to be in the same senior class.”

I nodded, knowing she has most likely grown a little crush on Jr or, more likely, his car. I laughed, and we moved things around, and we started to talk.

“So, Sunset, how did you meet Jr?”

I looked at Rarity and crossed my arms over my chest as I looked at her. “He helped me when a few guys tried to rape me.” They all got quiet as they looked at me.

“What!? Someone tried to rape you!?”

I waved my hand as I looked at the wall. “Rainbow, the walls are thin. The neighbors can hear you if you. And yes, Jr came from the other side of the alley, I guess using it as a shortcut if I had to guess.”

“Oh, Sugarcube.”

Applejack hugged me and rubbed my shoulder.

“Darling, what did Jr do with the men?”

I didn’t want them to know Jr killed them, but I knew Applejack could tell if I lied. “Jr pulled a gun left to him, and that stopped them fast.”

“He’s packing?”

I nodded as I looked at Rainbow, and I smiled as I looked at her. “Ya, the changeling has even started to leave this place alone. They struck a deal with him. Something about keeping Sombra’s guys out of this area. As far as I can tell, he helped to make some kind of agreement. I’m happy about that, and we haven’t had any shooting in this area since he moved in.” I looked at Applejack, and she hadn’t lost her sympathetic smile. ‘Oh, that Celestia, she did think I was lying.’ I grabbed her hand before another knock came from the door. I looked back at the door and smiled. “I guess Jr is taking me up on my offer.” I stood and walked over to the door and opened it to see Jr standing there with five large pizzas and two cream soda and cider letters in gags in each hand. He was dressed in blue jeans with a white shirt on with a black belt on. He had his hair combed back with his sunglasses on his shirt collar. “Come on in, Jr.”

Jr pov

I smiled as I let them out of my apartment and sighed as I lifted the bag in my hand. I smiled then thought about Sunset’s offer. ‘Maybe hanging out with them wouldn’t be so bad.’ I opened the back and saw a few wads of cash with half a pound of weed. “Not touching that.” Pulled it out then opened my door, seeing Chrysalis getting into her car. “Hey!” She stopped and looked back at me. I looked around and quickly ran back out to the car. I pulled the weed out, and she quickly took it and stuffed it into her arm bag.

“Not a smoker?”

I nodded as I looked at her. “I don’t smoke at all or snort or any of that. Maybe a drink here and there but not much else.”

“I’ll keep that in mind Jr. Sorry; I just thought maybe you’d like to try one of the new products you helped us get our hands-on.”

I rolled my eyes and nodded as I shut the door for her. She smiled and waved her finger and blew me a kiss as they drove off. I sighed, knowing she was fucking with me, but I’d need to deal with that later. I looked up and saw Sunset’s door with the lights on. I smiled and nodded, knowing I would have to get along with them to keep Sunset on my side. I walked back into my apartment and grabbed my phone. I looked up pizza restaurants. I found one ten minutes away and hit the call button. I put the phone to my ear and walked into my restroom as the voice of a woman started to talk.

“Hello, this is Pizza empire take out or delivery?”

“Delivery.”

“Okay, what can we made for you today?”

“Hello, miss. I’d like five large hand-tossed pizzas, three with pepperoni and two veggie pizzas.”

“Okay, sir. Would you like to add a two letter for a dollar more?”

“Yes, I’d like two cream sodas and two cider sodas if you have it.” it took a few seconds before she spoke again.

“Okay, sir. Your total will be sixty-five dollars ninety-eight cents. Will you pay with cash or card?”

“Cash.”

“Alright, it will be delivered in twenty minutes. Thank you for ordering with pizza empire.”

“Thank you.” I ended the call, then got some clothes, and walked into the bathroom. I got a shower, and as I started to get dressed, I noticed myself in the mirror. I smiled as I saw my body starting to tone up. I laughed and couldn’t believe how much my body had changed. I nodded my head as I put my shirt on, tucked in my pants, grabbed my black belt, and put it on. I heard knocking coming from the living room. I smiled, grabbed my wallet, pulled out a hundred in twenties, and slipped them into my pocket. I walked out and over to the bathroom, opened the door, and looked down at a girl. She had blonde hair with her eye looking two different ways. I smiled down at her and did my best to look her in the eyes. I took the pizza and drinks as I looked at her. “Here you come in for a second. I have the money in my pocket.” She looked a little worried for a second but walked indoors still open. I walked over and set the food and drink on the coffee table, then reached into my pocket and pulled out the twenties. “I’ve got a hundred in twenties. One twenty is your tip, and you can keep whatever is leftover from the other twenty.” She smiled as she took the money from my hand.

“Thank you, sir!”

She walked out of my apartment and closed the door behind her. I smiled as I looked at the closed door. “What a cute girl.” I walked into my room and grabbed some socks and boots. I had them on, then grabbed the food and walked out the door. I made my way up to Sunset’s apartment. When I was in front of the door, I kicked the door a few times. A second later, Sunset opened the door and smiled as she looked me up.

“Come on in, Jr.”

I walked in, and I noticed all the girls looking at me with a different look in their eyes. It wasn’t a bad look, but it was obvious that Sunset had told them something. ‘A problem for later.’ I set the food and drinks down on her larger coffee table as Sunset walked into the kitchen.

“Sit here, Jr.”

I looked at the couch and saw Rainbow patting the seat beside her. I smiled and sat down beside her, and she smiled as the purpled-haired girl sat down beside me. She smiled up at me and patted her eyes, and I laughed then looked back to Sunset as she walked in with plates. She passed out plates as I started to wonder what the hell I was thinking. ‘This is insane. What the fuck was I thinking coming to this apartment?!’

“So Jr Sunset told us you’d be going to school with us.”

I nodded as I looked at the cowgirl. “That’s right; she talked me into going instead of not.” I took a few pieces of pizza and set them on the plate.

“Do you like animals? I looked to the left and saw the girl hiding behind her hair. She had her hair out of her face, and she was smiling at me. I smiled as I looked at her and nodded as I looked at her. “Ya, I love big dogs, but I’m not going to get one until I get my own house. I don’t think miss Harshwenny would be happy if I bring in a big st bernard or a great dane.” She laughed and nodded as she looked at me.

“We have a great dane at the shelter if you ever want to come by and meet her.”

I nodded, but it was hard to hear her with how quietly she talked. “I’m guessing you’re a big animal fan if you’re at a shelter.” She nodded as she took a bit out of the veggie pizza.

“Hey, do you like to read?”

I looked at the girl who sat beside Sunset back at the bakery. “Ya, mostly science or biology. What about you?” She smiled, and everyone sighed as she started to explain how she loved to read about science and biology too. I smiled, and we talk with one another as the others talked amongst themselves. As we talked, I noticed someone was gone. I looked around and saw Pinkie was gone. I looked around until I smelled something cooking. I looked over to the kitchen and saw her there mixing something. I looked at Rainbow and pointed over to Pinkie. She smiled as she looked over.

“Oh, she’s just making a cake. She loves to bake and make people happy.”

I nodded as I looked at her. I stood my legs stiff from sitting for so long.

"Going somewhere, Jr?"

I looked down at Sunset and nodded as I walked around the small room. "No, my legs were stiff and trying to fall asleep."

"Mine too." The cowgirl stood and almost fell. I jumped, grabbed her arms, and lifted her. She laughed and blushed as she looked up at me.

"Thanks."

I nodded, and she moved around me and into the kitchen. I laughed a little and walked over to the door and opened it, letting some of the cool air in, and saw the sun starting to set. I smiled as I looked at the sun.

“See something you like?”

I looked back at Rainbow and smiled as I looked back at the sun.

“Ya, I always loved to see the sunset. Where I grew up, I could always watch the sunset. I loved seeing the clouds and colors.” I heard them laugh before they went back to talking. I watched the street lights coming on. I hummed as the sun disappeared behind the buildings. I smiled and walked back in, and closed the door. I saw Pinkie with a cake with writing on it.

“Thanks for saving Sunset.”

I blinked and looked at Sunset, and she looked away from me. I sighed and nodded as I had my hand as I turned back to the door. “Ya, you lot have fun with the car.”

“Nope!”

Rainbow and the cowgirls stood in front of the door. “Are we doing this?” They smiled, and I rolled my eyes but smiled as I looked back at the girls. They all smiled back at me, with genuine smiles, not fake smiles a group would generally give me. I smiled back, grateful for this moment of calm. ‘Well, I guess this isn’t so bad. A nice night before I start consolidating power in a few hours.’ I sat down as pinkie started to cut the cake.

Nine hours later

Chrysalis pov

I stood outside my hotel and watched as my people moved out all the new stock. I smiled as I watched them walk into the hotel.

“Boss Jr is here.”

I smiled as I looked to the side and saw Jr walking up with a new jacket on. It was a tight brown leather jacket with his colts on his sides. He walked up to me with two of his men behind him.

“So, have we found the last of the resistance to our new power?”

I smiled as my people came out armed with new rifles and pistols. “Ya, their hold up in the hotel you shot up. About fifty of them were there and have reinforced the doors.” Jr nodded then walked up and jumped into the van with my guys. I knew he was on my side but now that I’d seen that map the trust in him has faded some. ‘Let’s see how well all this plays out.’

Two Days Ago

I smiled as I walked through the busted-down doors and looked around at the bodies. A few of my men and women were pretty beaten and bloody, but we had cleared them out.

“About time you came in.”

I looked at the deck and smiled as I looked at Jr. He leaned against the desk, colts in hand.

“They didn’t put up as much of a fight as we expected. I got our guys checking the place like last time. We found cash last time and this time we’ve found weapons.”

He stood up and walked over to the bar area. “What did we find?”

“There are ten AKs and thirteen M16s, and I think it’s a sniper rifle. I’ll be keeping it, and a few of the M16s as part of our raid spoils.”

I nodded as we walked into the side room, and he picked up an old-looking rifle. “I'm pretty sure it's a Mosin Nagant, but I’m not a hundred percent on it.”

I nodded, then waved for a few of my men. I walked over, and I explained how we were breaking up the weapons. They nodded and took everything that wasn’t going to Jr. Once we had everything out, I heard the sirens and knew that someone had called this time.

“Fuck! MOVE IT!”

Jr yelled as we grabbed the last of the weapons. They pulled back into the van, and Jr and I slipped back to his car. He’d had one of his men drive. I knew it was in case they started to fire at it once they saw it. I smiled, seeing it running, and the man with the driver seat pulled forward. I jumped into the passenger as the men got into the back as Jr jumped into the driver’s seat. He floored it once he was in and raced out of the building. We got onto a side road as the first cop car showed up. Jr turned a hard right as I heard a siren behind us. I turned a few more times fast, then backed into a back alley and pulled in, then turned off the engine. We were well hidden by the dark, and Jr jumped out, grabbing a dirty old tarp he had in the back seat. He threw it over the back and jumped behind a dumpster. Two cars raced by, sirens blaring, and I saw one in the driver-side mirror. They shined a light at us then moved it around before they pulled off. I sighed and leaned back into the chair. Jr jumped back in and sighed as he pulled his phone out then dialed a number. He put it on speaker, and it rang for a few seconds, then a man picked up.

“Yeah, Boss?”

“Shining, did you do what I told you if cops showed, right?”

“Yeah, we got out into the neighborhood near the highway. It was close for a minute, but we managed. I think we should go underground for a while. I think we’ve stirred the pot enough for a few months.”

Jr nodded as he leaned back into the driver seat.

“Ok, don’t go to the changeling hotel. I’m sure they’re trying to find out who’s doing what. If they saw the van, it’s too much to risk. Find somewhere safe, stash the guns and lay low.”

“Okay, what about y’all?”

“I’ll drop off your friend once it’s clear, and I’ll figure the rest out.”

“Alright.”

He hung up and looked back at the man.

“Where do you live?”

He smiled as he nodded his head.

“A few blocks from here, I can walk so we don’t risk the cops.”

“Wow, look, if we wait for an hour or so, I’ll drop you off. Your armed and walking around after having a large gun battle is a dead give away; you may have been part of it.”

“No, it’s fine; just let me out.”

Jr sighed, then nodded as he got out, and he nodded at me before he got out. Jr let him go, then sat back in and closed the door as the man jogged off.

“He’s going to get caught. I know they’re driving around looking and will be for a few hours.”

I grabbed his shoulder, and he laughed as he looked at me.

“I’ll get up home later. I’m sure your sister is worried. Do you want to call her?”

I laughed, a little surprised at how much he cared for others, especially in this situation. “No, she’s with mother and my other sisters.” He smiled and nodded as I sat back and closed my eyes.

“I’m going to get some sleep.”

“Okay.”

Two Days Later

Jr pov

I smiled as I looked around the office. My new leaders were moving things into the spaces. Shining and Cadence were busy getting ready for the school year. Cadence was the principal, and Shining was an Alumni of the school. I wasn’t too sure what he did, but I didn’t care much about it. Cadence was the one that worries me. She was smart. I walked into the main office and saw them setting up a desk with a couch on the left wall and a few chairs. In the middle was a beauty of a chestnut wood table. I smiled, then walked back to the office and walked around, seeing that they were about done with set up.

“Hey, Jr.”

I smiled as I looked back at Sunset and saw she was in a pair of blue jeans with torn holes over the knees. She had sandals on and had on a shirt held up by spaghetti straps tied in a knot behind her neck with a hole over her breast showing them off. She had her hair tied back into a ponytail. “Hey Sunset, thanks for coming. I’ll show you to your office.” She smiled as she looked at me, then we walked to the third office down from mine, and I walked her in. I saw the red-painted room with a black desk in the center with that sun spray painted. The chair I’d got for her was like mine, black leather with walnut armrests. She had a nice set of chairs in front of her desk with two couches on both sides of her office. On the desk was a new and extra-wide led computer screen. I looked back at her and smiled; she bounced in place as she looked around. “Go on, have a seat.” She walked around the desk and sat down. Sunset smiled as she turned on her computer, and I heard the chime as it came on. I smiled and walked out of the office, leaving her to do as she wished. I walked back into my office and walked over to the window. I looked down at the street and watched the car go by. I smiled and saw the car Cadence and Shining drove in last time.

“Jr!”

I jumped at Sunset’s yell and ran back out of the door. I ran into her office; she recoiled back with a blonde-haired man leaning over her desk, holding her right arm. I growled, then stormed over and grabbed the fucker by the hair. He screamed as I pulled the hair near the base of his skull. He reached back and grabbed my arm as I walked him back. “Sunset, lock the door.” She nodded as I walked off the door. When I had him out of the door, it slammed shut, and I threw him back into a chair. I glared down at him, and he looked scared as he looked up at me then down at the guns on my side. “Get out.” He stared up at me, and I grabbed my gun. “NOW!” He fell out of the chair and took off for the door. I watched him run, and once he was out, I looked at a few of my guys. I nodded to the door then dragged my thumb over my throat. They nodded then walked out with a gun and knife on each. I looked at the other men and glared at them all before I pointed back to Sunset’s door. “Anyone touches her against her will and you’ll meet a fate worse than death, because he just wasted your only easy death.” I walked back over to my office and grabbed my coat before I stood in front of Sunset’s door and knocked on the door. A second later, it opened and Sunset smiled as she looked up at me. She grabbed a hold of my arm and leaned into it. I pulled my arm a little, but she held tight. I rolled my eyes, and she laughed as we walked.

“Thanks, Jr, but can you take me home? That left a bad taste in my mouth.”

I nodded, and she walked out of her office. I pulled a key out of my back then locked the door before holding it out to her. She took it then slipped it onto her key ring before we walked out of the offices. We walked down to the parking load shared with the hotel that butted up to the side of the office building. We walked outside, and I heard a gasp. I looked over and saw Pinkie with a group of new girls, and I guess her parents.

“Sunset you and Jr!?”

I waved my hand as I looked at her, and Sunset let my arm go and hid behind me. “I swear this is not what it looks like. We came from the office next door! I had an interview for an internship, and Sunset came along to help me get here.” Pinkie smirked and crossed her arm as she looked at us.

“So why was she holding onto your arm?”

Before I could come up with something, Sunset spoke up.

“One of the men in there grabbed my butt. Jr knocked him out, and we got kicked out of the office.”

Pinkie looked pissed, and she tried to run past us. “No, you don’t!” I grabbed her arm and pulled her back. I knew if she rushed to the office, they’d shoot her. “You are not going to go crazy in there. With energy like yours, it is like dropping a bomb.” I looked back at the group and nodded to Pinkie as Sunset wrapped her arm under Pinkie's arms to keep her from running into the office building. The woman came over and grabbed her ear, making her yell. Sunset let her go, and the older woman pulled her back over.

“The young man has already made a scene by punching someone. Besides, you need to get your shots.”

I laughed as I watched her eyes shrink as she turned to look at her.

“Shot!?”

I grabbed Sunset’s hand and pulled her along as the group dragged Pinkie around the corner to the hospital as she yelled about not wanting to get a shot. We got into my car, and Sunset laughed as she looked at Pinkie as she ran back to a van with a rough-looking girl behind her. “Not even going to ask.” I put it into drive, and I drove out once we saw Pinkie hitting her back as he carried her on her shoulder. Sunset laughed harder as I drove down the road. I smiled as I looked at her, then nodded my head. As I drove, my phone started to ring. I reached into my pocket and pulled out the phone to see Shining’s name. I answered the call and set it down on my lap.

“Yeah Shining?”

“Can you please explain why two men are going to dump a body?”

I smiled, and Sunset looked at me as I came to a stop at a red light. “He grabbed Sunset and was trying to force her to go with him. I will not tolerate that kind of action in my gangs. Now, with that out of the way, You and Cadence did great finding us that office building. And listen, you two should take off for a while. Take some of the leftover money and go do what you need to for the school year.” I had talked in a cool tone, and I think the message got across as he was quiet.

“How long till you need us back?”

I smiled, seeing he had got the idea I had going. “Oh, I’d say about a month after school starts.” He laughed a happy laugh before he spoke.

“Sounds good; we left some papers on your desk.”

“Ok y’all go have some fun.”

Shining hung up, and I looked at Sunset, who was smiling.

“So that’s the game you're playing.”

I smiled as I looked at her. “Loyal dogs never bite the hand that feeds.” She laughed some more than looked out the window. We rode in silence until her phone started to ring. She answered and spoke.

“Hello.”

“Hey, Wallflower, what’s up?”

“Oh? Well, I guess I could, but that's short notice. Maybe this weekend would be better. I just started working, so I can’t just take off.”

She was quiet for a second, then nodded to the left, and I turned at the end of the street.

“Ok, I’m on the way with a friend. I’m sure we can get you a bed for the night.”

I raised an eyebrow as I listened to her before she said we’d be there soon. Once she ended the call, she looked at me with a pissed look in her eyes.

“Do you have your pistols?”

I nodded and moved my coat at a red light, and she saw my right colt. I let my coat fall and nodded as I started to drive again. “Want to tell me what you just signed me up for?”

“A friend of mine named Wallflower has an abusive stepdad. She said he hit her again, and she’s walking around, not wanting to go home. She can stay with me for the night. The father knows where I live, so if he happens to show up, do you think you can handle it?”

I huffed and nodded as she pointed down the off main street. “Yeah, I can deal with him if he shows up and hopefully not have to kill him.” She smiled and nodded as she looked around. After a minute, I saw a green-haired girl in a sweater and blue jeans running down the sidewall with a large man behind her.

“That her!”

I turned hard, cut off a van, pulled into a parking lot, slammed the car into park, and jumped out. “Get in!” She didn’t need to be told twice, and I grabbed the man’s shirt when he tried to force me to the side. I kicked his knee and threw my arm around his neck as I took him to the ground. I grabbed a hold of my wrist and started to choke him out as he thrashed around in the ground. I tightened my hold on him, and he grabbed hold of my arm and shouted for me to let him go. “Sunset, call the cops! And close and lock the doors!”

“Okay!’

I heard the driver’s door close as he managed to get loose, being a little stronger than me. I got to my feet fast as he tried to stomp his foot on me. He jumped at me, and I sidestepped and kicked the back of his knees hard, making him drop to the ground. I tackled him and got him into another chokehold this time; I was under him and locked my legs around his stomach. I had a better hold this time, so it didn’t matter if he was stronger or not as he slowly started to pass out. I heard the police siren, and I let up some, and she gasped and started to thrash again as I heard the screeching wheel a minute later. I heard feet and then screaming.

“Let him go! Let him go!”

I did as I was told and threw him off, and an officer quickly grabbed my arm and pushed me away, and another cop did the same with him. The officer pulled out her cuffs, and I let her cuff me, and then she searched me, and I was glad I’d sent my guns away. She had me sit down as Sunset got out of the car when an officer asked her to get out, and Wallflower got out, and I noticed blood on her face now that I could look at her. She talked with an officer and then pointed at me a few times. The cop who hand-cuffed me was waved over. After a few minutes, the officer walked back over, helped me up, and took her cuffs off.

“Sorry sir, but with two men fighting on the ground we need to cuff you both so you don’t fight with us.”

I nodded as I took my jacket off, and I saw Sunset’s eyes go wide when she saw my guns were gone. I scratched my chin as I looked at her. “I get it, no reason you guys should put yourself at more risk.” She smiled then nodded as the man kicked and screamed as they forced him into the back of the cop car. I nodded my head as I looked at him as he fought them. I winced when he scored a kick to one of the men in the nuts and tried to run.

“Taser! Taser!”

A man shot him with his taser, and he dropped to the ground. They barked an order, and after another hit, he gave up. “Some people just don’t need to live around other people.”

“Yep.”

I smiled as I looked at the cop, and she sighed as she rubbed her face before starting to walk over to them.

“Get him in the car we need to get back and get the paperwork done.”

She waved to us as she got into her car. I waved back to her as they all pulled off. I smiled once they were gone and looked back at the two girls. “So who wants lunch?”

Chapter 6

Jr pov

Two Weeks Later

I hummed as I typed on the computer in my office. An email dinged and I clicked on the icon. I smiled when I saw the list of names Sunset had sent me. It was the full set of names for the leaders of the territory next to us. I leaned back into the chair as I read over the names. ‘Amazing how much information is at our fingertips in this age. I can’t believe Sunset can use social media to track these people down. And Windy and Bow getting locations for hideouts and drug suppliers. If only we had this back in my dad’s day. He’d shit himself for info like this.’

I laughed at that thought before getting back to work. ‘Well, it’s too late to think about it.’ I started to write a mass email. As I typed a text came in. I took my phone then clicked on it and saw it was from Harshwhinny.

‘Hello Jr, I’m sorry to bother you but do you think you can come and pick me up? I’m at the grocery store if you can?’

I smiled as I replied that I would be happy to pick her up and sent it before I stood up. I grabbed my coat off my coat rack and threw it over my shoulder. I opened my door and walked out to see the guys planning attacks, and I could see them packaging products for shipping. I smiled and nodded before I walked over and knocked on Sunset’s door. A minute passed before she unlocked the door. I opened the door and I smiled down at her. Sunset smiled as she stood to the side.

“Come in Jr, I just found something I think you’ll like.”

I nodded and walked into the office. She closed and locked her door again before she walked over and sat in her chair. She turned the screen and let me see a site called ponybook. I saw a man surrounded by women with a large knife in hand.

“This is Brute, the leader of the area we’re looking at as our next target. From what Windy dug up we know he likes to go to the same bar every Friday night with his brother and whatever woman he’s doing at the time.”

I nodded as I burned his face into my mind. He looked like he wouldn’t be too hard to deal with. “Well, I guess I will get to use that new rifle of mine in a few days. Oh, and come on. I need to take you home. I’m going to pick Harshwinny up in an hour at the grocery store.” She nodded and stood up, and grabbed a red purse. She locked her computer and walked behind me. I unlocked the door, then held the open door for her. She walked out, and I closed the door and she used her key to lock the door.

“Miss Sunset.”

We looked back at one of the women that stayed, and Sunset smiled as she looked at her.

“Yes Misty?”

She smiled as she pulled some papers off a stack she had pressed to her larger chest. I couldn’t help but look for a second, and they were nearly as big as Harshwinny.

“Jr your eye.”

I blushed and looked away, making the girl laugh a little. I could feel the glare from Sunset burning me. “Sorry I’m a guy.” The girl laughed more before she spoke up.

“It’s fine, Miss Sunset. At least he doesn’t just grab them like a lot of the men used to.”

I looked back at her face, and she smiled as she slightly nodded back to the men. I looked back out and saw a few quickly look away. I nodded as I walked over to a cabinet and opened it, and pulled out a nine-millimeter. I checked it, and it had a full clip which made me happy. I put the clip back in the walked over and held it out to her. “Next time someone tries that, give them a hit with this.” She laughed, then took it from me and slipped it into the corner of her belt.

“Thanks boss.”

I nodded, and we started to walk Sunset, reading the papers. Once she finished reading it, she held it out to me a minute later. I took them and saw it was Chrysalis's handwriting. “So she’s having some trouble with the gang to the south, the Never Dies? That’s one hell of a weird name.’ I sighed, then folded it up and slipped it into my pocket. We walked out into the parking lot and over to my car. We got in, and she sprayed some perfume as I got in. I waved the air since it was a little strong.

“Sorry, I don’t like to stink.”

I nodded and rolled my window down, and she did the same. I pulled out of the spot, and I got onto the road. Sunset played on her phone as I drove, and I watched the road. It was a light traffic day, and I was getting all green light.

“Say, Jr can I ask you something?”

I looked at her real quick, then back to the road. “Sure, what do you need?” She was quiet for a minute then spoke.

“Well, can I ask what kind of girl’s do you like?”

I was a little caught off guard, not ready for something like that. I opened and closed my mouth a few times, not sure what to say. “Well, damn. That is a hell of a question Sunset. What brought this up?” She looked down at her b cup breast, and I understood. “Sunset, I don’t really have a type. If I think she’s a good person then I’d be happy to give it a try.” She seemed a little annoyed by my answer if the huff meant anything.

“Okay, let me ask another question.”

“Okay.”

“Do you like girls with bodies like mine or that girl you were staring at?”

My throat became dry as I tried to find words. A few seconds passed before I got my words out. “Damn Sunset, that's a hell of a loaded question.”

“That’s not an answer.”

I laughed a little and knew lying was only going to drag this out. “Ya, not going to lie. Like most guys, I do like to see the big ones but it’s not the biggest thing to me. Really what I like is a nice ass if you want to keep pushing me like you are.” My tone was sharp, and I think the point was made for a second until she snapped back.

“Well, excuse me! I thought maybe you weren’t that shallow!”

“Shallow!? Who the hell are you calling shallow!? Ask any guy if they don’t look!”

Sunset looked pissed and put her phone in her purse, and unlocked the door. I knew where this was going, and I knew fighting with her was a losing battle. “We’re almost to the apartments so just hold on before you jump out at the first red light. Neither of us want that much attention on us and we both know what this area was used for in the past. What if someone you know is nearby?” She stopped, and I could see she was thinking about what I was saying. She sighed and locked the door back as I pulled to a stop at the first red light to catch us. And Funny enough, we stopped right on the street. Sombra used to have his girls work. The realization of how it would have looked if she had gotten out when we stopped like she was planning.

“Asshole.”

I huffed and pulled off, not saying anything. “I may be an asshole, but I’m always fair with everyone.” She crossed her arms with her fist balled around the purse strap. I nodded as I headed down the street, heading straight for the apartments. After a few more minutes, I pulled into the parking lot, and once I was stopped, she got up then slammed my door. Not wanting to fight, I pulled back then drove out of the parking lot as she stormed up the steps to her apartment. Again, I nodded, then pulled out my phone and started to dial Chrysalis’s number. After a minute, I hit the call button, and after a few rings, she picked up.

“Hey Jr, what’s up?”

“Well, I’m giving you a heads up that we’ll be hitting the never dies soon. I wanted to warn you so none of your people get caught in the crossfire.”

“Thanks, oh and I need you to come by the hotel.”

“Is everything okay?”

“Well, I have a few of the girls Sombra had just got and was about to force into prostitution and they say they got something they think you should know.”

“Okay? Well, I’ve got plans so I’ll be over later tonight. Give me a call if anything comes up with those girls in the meantime.”

“Sure Jr.”

She hung up, and I locked my phone then set it down in the passenger seat. I hummed as I drove.

“Well you seem like you’ve taken to this age well.”

I jumped as I looked in the rearview mirror. I saw the man sitting there, fingers interlocked and his right leg resting on his knee. I relaxed a minute later as I looked back at the road.

“I guess I scared you. Sorry Leonardo.”

I sighed as I felt my heartbeat slowing down. “Yeah, a hell of a scare. What’s up? You have a job you want me to do?” He smiled as he looked at me.

“Those girls you're going to meet have lied. They are sirens but have lost their power.”

He held up three spiked chokers with red gems in the center of them.

“These will give them back their powers and will make it so they will always subconsciously think of how to help you in the long run. But beyond that they will have free will.”

“What do you get out of this?”

He smiled as he held them out.

“Chaos. I get chaos.”

I slowly nodded, then reached around and grabbed the chokers.

“Oh, and this may help when you find that girl you want to spend your life with.”

He pulled out two small black boxes. I set the chokers in the seat, then reached back out as I turned the corner and started to head down the street to the store. I took them then as I looked at the road then stopped at a red light. I turned, wanting to ask him something, but he was gone. I blinked and nodded my head before I turned back around. I nodded, not sure what to think of that man, but it worried me that I didn’t know how he got in the car. ‘Something to deal with later.’ I turned into the parking lot of the grocery store. I pulled into a spot near the front door and grabbed my phone, then checked the time. I saw I was thirty minutes early and sighed then remembered I didn’t have much left in the way of food. I looked back at the building and sighed before getting out and checking to see how much cash I had. I had two hundred in my twenties and a hundred dollar bill. I closed my wallet and walked to the door. The door opened, and I walked into the store then grabbed a shopping cart. I leaned onto it as I started to walk around the shelves. I grabbed bread, sam, and frozen meals. I turned the corner and hit a cart head-on. “I’m sorry.” I looked up to see Harshwinny, and I stopped to see she was in a pair of black jeans with a white belt on with a white, pink shirt tucked into her pants. Her top was slightly open, and she had her hair down. “Damn.” She laughed and moved her hair out of her face as she looked at me.

“Thank you.”

I laughed and nodded as I pulled my cart back. “Yeah, I was out driving when you sent me that email. So I figured I’d get my shopping done while I was here.”

“That makes sense. You're already here so why not go ahead and get it done.”

I nodded, and we went our ways to finish getting everything.

“Jr?”

I looked behind me and saw Chrysalis in jeans with a black t-shirt on. She had just the lipstick on with a blue eye shadow. “Hey Chrysalis.” She smiled as she walked over with a handbasket on her arm. She walked up and gave me a hug before she pulled back and looked at me.

“Well look at you all dressed up. Black is a good color on you.”

I laughed, then shoved her shoulder before we started to walk again. “The girls?”

“Waiting at the hotel. Heaven knows they needed a safe place to go.”

“Okay so what are we supposed to do with them?”

“I was thinking that we can't have them work for us for a little while just until they get their own place.”

“Well I don't mind that but then you have to earn their keep.”

“Jr?”

I turned around and saw Harshwenny standing there looking at us. I smiled and held a hand up as I looked back at Chrysalis. “This is Chrysalis, well I guess you could call her a coworker.” Harshwhinny smiled, pushed her cart up, and started to look Chrysalis up and down. Looking at them like Chrysalis was in better shape but was smaller but at least ten years younger. They looked at one another for another minute then Chrysalis laughed as she looked at her.

“I think you’ve got the wrong idea here, miss. While Jr is really nice, I have no interest in him in the way you may be thinking.”

Harshwhinny blushed as she looked at her, then nodded her head before she looked at me.

“I’m going up to check out.”

She walked off red cheeks and muttered. I smirked as I leaned down onto the cart then looked at her. With an innocent inn smile, she looked down at me.

“That was way too easy.”

I nodded my head as I looked back at her. “I would love it if you don’t make my life harder.”

“Yeah no, this is more entertaining.”

I flipped her off as I stood up, making her laugh more. I went to start walking away, but she reached into her pocket and pulled out a piece of folded paper. I took it then slipped it into my pocket before I started to walk to check out.

“Are you done with your friend?”

I stopped and looked to the right. There stood Harshwhinny with an annoyed look on her face. I laughed and nodded before I started to walk. “You and sunset both got so defensive today.” She walked up beside me and glared at me.

“Well, sorry but I’ve seen girls like her and they’re just trouble.”

I stopped and looked at her with a nasty look. She stopped realizing what she said then looked away. I took a deep breath then nodded as I looked at the near-empty checkout lanes. “Let’s just get checked out and get home.”

“Okay.”

She went over to the lane on the right, and I took the one on the left. We checked out, and she stood with the carts as I pulled my cart up to the front. I got out and put her stuff in the trunk and my stuff in the back seat. I put the carts back into the cart and got back in, then pulled off. We rode in silence.

“I’m sorry.”

I sighed then nodded as I drove. “Don’t worry, I just haven’t had to deal with an upset woman for a long time. I didn’t want to deal with two of you at once.”

“I am sorry, you're just a nice guy and I don’t want you to get in trouble.”

I laughed a little before I stopped at a red light. “Don’t worry, I’m not going to let myself go down like that.” She smiled then nodded as I turned into the apartment parking lot, and to my surprise, Sunset was sitting on the steps. When we parked near her, I got out and looked at her. She rubbed her arm as she looked at me. “Go on back to your apartment. I'm not too happy with you right now.” She looked a little more hurt and tried to speak.

“But…”

I narrowed my eyes, and she laughed as she stood up. I sighed and saw then spoke up. “Come to my apartment in twenty minutes and we'll talk.” She stopped and looked back at me, a smile on her face. I smiled back at her before she turned and walked back up the steps. I nodded my head before I grabbed my stuff then walked to my apartment. Once I had everything in the apartment, I smiled as I started to put the food away. I heard my door open behind me, and I looked back at the door as Sunset walked in. I nodded over to the chair. She sat down, and I smiled as I finished. I turned and leaned back on the counter, looking her in the eye.

“Hey, look I’m sorry you know how some guys are.”

I raised an eyebrow then nodded my head before I stood back up. “Yeah, but you don’t have to lump us all into that group.” She laughed a little, and I nodded my head before I walked over and sat down on the couch. “Well, I do need to ask you for help.”

“Oh?”

“Chrysalis has some girls Sombra tried to make work for him.”

Sunset frowned as she leaned back into the chair.

“I’ve been looking into that. Most of the girls have stayed with our group. A few have left the city but a few I did lose track of.” I nodded, understanding why this would bother her. “Yeah, I’m going to go talk with them tonight. Tomorrow I’ll be having them come to the office. I want to see if you may be able to help them. I’m sure they won’t trust me so much, so seeing a woman in power in the group may help them open up.”

“Yeah, but I still worry about what could happen.”

I nodded before I stood up. “Yeah, I don’t know what he did to them but I took over the gang so they are my trouble to deal with now.”

“Yeah it is.”

We laughed before we stood up. “Okay I’ll be going to deal with them, you go back to your apartment.” Sunset laughed a little before she opened the door and looked back and waved as she looked at me. I laughed then nodded my head before I grabbed my keys and walked back into the bathroom and pulled out the sack of cash. I pulled out a few hundred dollars and smiled as I put the bag back up. ‘Two grand should be a start-up bonus.’ I put the cash in my pocket then grabbed my keys before I walked out of the door. I locked the door behind me and walked over to my car.

“Hey Jr!”

I looked up and saw Rainbow leaning over the railing. I waved up to her then got in my car before I had to get into a conversation with her. I started up the engine and pulled out of the parking spot. I pulled onto the road and smiled as I drove down the street. I opened the glove box and grabbed the chokers and set them in the passenger seat. I rode down the road in silence, my thoughts about how I could deal with these girls. ‘Maybe I should get them a room in the apartments. No, no, if I do that, Sunset's friends will start asking questions.’ I drove into the hotel parking lot. I parked in front of the hotel and grabbed the chokers then stuffed them into my pocket. My colts appeared on my side just in case Chrysalis was trying something. “Never trust them as far as you could throw them.” I closed and locked the door before I looked back up to the hotel.

“Good to see you again Jr.”

I looked over to the door and smiled as I saw Chrysalis walking out. I smiled as I walked over hands in my coat pockets. “Good to see you too. So, how are the girls doing?” She sighed as she looked back up to the top floor.

“Yeah, but they’ve been keeping to themselves since I called you.”

I nodded as I looked at her. “Well, let’s go and get this over with.” She nodded then stepped aside and I walked into the hotel. Chrysalis hit the elevator button and held out a key card.

“Room 322.”

I nodded as the door opened. I got on and hit the third-floor button. The door closed and I sighed as I leaned back into the wall. I smiled at all the plans I had for these three. The elevator stopped the door siding open a second later. I walked out and was met with a girl. She had blue hair with purple highlights and b-cup breasts. She had pink eyes and had blue eyeliner and lipstick. She had on a short sleeve jacket and a small skirt with some nice hips. She had on a pair of knee-high, high heel boots.

“Hi, I’m Sonata Duck.”

I smiled and held out my hand. “Hello Sonata, call me Jr.” She smiled then took my hand. She let my hand go then we walked down to the room and she pulled out a key card from her bra. She unlocked the door and we walked in. Sitting on the couch were two girls and a good god. A large blonde sat on the right side of the couch with her hair tied back. She had on a purple shirt and shorts with a set of golden eyes with d-cup breasts. She had on leggings with triangles and short high-heel boots. She had on a spike belt and hairband. The last one was the biggest out of the three she had purple hair with bright blue highlights tied up into two ponytails. Her rack had to be at least a fucking e-cup. She had on a top with a sea-green jacket with ripped-off sleeves. Her pants were pink and she had on another set of high-heel boots.

“Hey girls this is Jr the guy Chrysalis said stopped Sombra’s old crew.”

They smiled up at me before Sonata sat down in between the two of them. I smiled as I walked back over to the door and locked the door and put the top door stopper in place. I turned and saw the nervous looks on their faces. I laughed and nodded as I looked at them. “Relax, I’ve come with a deal and you get something whether you say yes or no.” They all looked between each other and they looked worried as they looked back at me. The blonde spoke up for the group.

“What do you want?”

I laughed a little more then I pulled out the chokers. Their eyes went wide as they looked at them. “Information gatherers. I know you’ll be attending Canterlot high as well. I need people who can get into groups and have ears to the ground. To listen for anything from parties to gang activities in the school.”

“Okay, we’ve got some experience with that but how did you?”

“I know what you three are. I know what you can do and I want that on my side. I also know these can feed your powers. As for where I got them. My benefactor told me you three were what I was looking for. And I have a starting bonus for y’all.” I pulled out the cash and set the cash and chokers down on the table between us. I crossed my left leg over my right and interlocked my fingers. “Like I said, you get the chokers regardless of your answer. The cash if you say yes.” I smiled as they all looked at each other and I laughed. Then stood and walked back over to the door. “I’m going down to the kitchen to give you all some time to talk.” I moved the stopped and unlocked the door. “Oh, and it would take me a day to hunt you three down if you really want to play that game.” I opened the door and moved outside. I closed the door and saw Chrysalis standing at the end of the hall with a glass of wine in hand. I smiled then walked down the hall to her and she smiled as she looked at me.

“So, how’d it go?”

I stopped a few feet away from her and smiled as I looked at her. “I gave them some options. Figured I’d give them some alone time to think about it.” She sipped her wine then looked back at the door.

“I have the feeling you're planning something. Want to let me in on it?”

I laughed then nodded as I looked at her. “Not much of a plan, more like a gamble.” Chrysalis raised an eyebrow before I looked back to the door waiting.

“Say J…”

The door opened and the blonde-haired girl looked at me. She stepped out and looked at me.

“We’d be happy to work with you. When do we start?”

I smiled as I walked back over to her. “Once school starts. Beyond that you need not worry.” She smiled and nodded before I noticed the choker around her neck.
