"Okay thank you for assistance ma'am" Star Gate smiled. The pony In front of her nodded before closing the door. The blue unicorn sighs befor turning towards her partner. Said partner was a dark grey pegasus with silver mane and tail.

"Right Wing."

No reaction.

Start rolled her eyes.

"Donuts."

"Huh? The pegasus blinked before shaking his head. He may or may not have zoned out while his partner wasn't looking. Star sighed. She liked Right wing she really did, but sometimes the stallion can drive her up the wall. "Did you at least hear anything we said?" Her partner shrugged. In truth the stallion was too busy thinking about what he was going to have for dinner. "It's not like it matters anyway" he stated dully. "No pony has the guts to help a group of ponies screaming at the dead of night." "Munch less to get a look at whoever was attacking them." Star Gate snorted. Unfortunately however the stallion did have a point. Most ponies were cowards afthere all. Thier none aggresive nature makes a killer task in getting away a cake walk. Hell Star was sure that whoever killed those five ponies knew that as well. Regardless as a police officer it was Star's duty to protect, and to get the whole truth whenever possible. Even if that means going out and doing something she knows would be futile. They can't say that they didn't try at least. "Be that as it may, we still have an important job to do." With a sigh of his own Right wing nodded.

"So is that it?" The pegasus asked as the duo made thier way onto the side walk. The unicorn shook her head. "With that type of attitude why did you want to be a cop of all things?" The stallion shrugged. "I already told you it runs in the family" Right mumbled. It seemed it was more to himself than her. Star just rolled her eyes before answering his question. "No, if you were paying any attention you would have notice the wagon parked across from us.

The pegasus blinked before turning his head.

Sure enough there was indeed a wagon parked across the street. Said wagon was a mixture between pink and grey. If that wasn't enough the words "the fun mobile" was written in a multitude of colors. The letters themselves nearly took the entire front half of the wagon. Upon seeing this Right wing smirked, "and I thought today wasn't going to be interesting."

Star merely snorted.

Afthere knocking on the door Star took several steps back. "I'll do the talking" the mare stated. From her tone Right could tell that there was no room for argument. In response the stallion merely mumbled under his breath. "I never get to have any fun."

The mare just rolled her eyes.

As soon as she did so the door opened.

The duo watched as a black stallion poke his head out through the door.

The stallion looked left.

Then right.

Then left again.

"Umm over here" Star gate waved. The stallion blinked before looking over at them. "Hi!" He waved. Stepping outside he gently closes the door behind him. "Hello" Star greeted. "My name Is Sta-"

"Hi!" The stallion waved.

The mare blinked.

"Hello" she said slowly. "As I was saying my name is Sta-"

"Hi!" The stallion smiled brightly.

She stared.

Beside her Right was struggling not to laugh.

"Hello again" Star said everly. This caused the Stallion's smile to brighren even more. "Do you mind if I continued speaking?" She asked. All though she sounded patient there was a hint of annoyance in her tone. The stallion seemingly heard it to. As such he flinched before lowering his gaze to the floor. "Sorry" he mumbled. The duo watched as tears slowly begins to build in his mixed colored eyes. Instantly the unicorn felt guilty. She knew that it wasn't exactly her fault, but seeing a pony in such a state did nothing to ease her apparent guilt. However just as she opened her snout to apologize the stallion growled. Wiping his eyes he looked at her. His happy expression replaced with a look of noticeable anger.

"What the fuck do you want?" He snapped. His tone holing so munch venom that the mare couldn't help but flinch. Fortunately Right Wing chose that moment to speak. Stepping in front of his partner he glared at the stallion. "Look pa-"

"Jazz" the pony hissed.

The pegasus blinked in confusion.

"That's my name!" The stallion chirped. His cheerful expression returning once more. "Isn't it neat?!" The girls helped me come up with it ever se-"

"Yeah, I don't really care" Right interrupted. "Look, my partner and I were just wondering if you heard or saw anything strange last night." Jazz blinked befor humming in thought. A look of absolute concentration falling on his face. It was then that the ponies noticed Jazz's cutie mark. The two police ponies glanced at one another in confusion. Howver befor they could say anything Jazz spoke up. A nonchalant expression on his face. "Naw just the usual nightmarish screaming and hallucinations that haunt every second of my life, and often than not leads me to contemplate suicide on a near daily basis." He paused before humming slightly. "I always wondered what my insides would look like."

The duo stared at him in horror.

Jazz blinked befor tilting his head. A look of utter confusion falling on his face. "I'm sorry what were we talking about?"

The ponies continued to stare.

Flinching under thier gaze he whimpers before taking a step back. "Why are you looking at me like that? Do I have something on my face?" Tears began to form in his eyes. "Do you think your better than me Is that it?"

No pony said a word.

"WELL FUCK YOU OK?!" He roared. His entire body shaking with rage. "DON'T YOU THINK I ALREADY KNOW THAT?! I'M NOTHING COMPARED TO YOU! YOU HEAR ME?! NOTHING!"

Jazz wailed before clutching his skull in pain. His facial expression shifting rapidly before thier eyes. INSECTS ARE EATING MY INSIDES!" He screames. "S-SPIDERS WHISPER IN MY SLEEP!"

Throwing his head back Jazz screamed. The sound itself was full of desperation and fear. Turning away from the door the crazed stallion began rapidly slamming his head against the wagon. With each connection he made his screams because more frantic and desperate.

Upon seeing this Star Gate immediately snapped out of her stupor. "We have to help him!" Right looked ar her as if she was crazy. However before Star could open her once more the wagon door swung open. Turning her head Star saw a grey blur. Said blur immediately tackled the crazed earth pony. Star watched as the two momentarily wrestled once they hit the ground. Said wrestling match soon ended, and the victor was too busy holding Jazz down to notice the two other ponies.

"What the flying fuck tart is going on here!"

The duo looked over to see a bluish grey earth pony walk out of the wagon. Her name looked to be somewhat of a grey color. The mare had godless yellow eyes. While her cutie mark seemed to be a good nugget. However the mare's expression wasn't warm or welcoming, but that of hostility. Star watched as the mare glanced at her surroundings. Her eyes lock on the two struggling ponies for a moment before settling on Star and her partner. With one look at thier Uniforms the mare immediately knew who they were. Star watched as the mare rolled her eyes before marching back into the wagon. A few long moments later the mare returned. Only this time she brought a pink pony with her. Said mare looked as if she just woken up.

As a matter a fact upon closer inspection the other mare seemed to be tired as well even the pony who was holding Jazz down had noticable bags under her eyes.

"Can I help you?" The pink mare asked with a tired smile. Star nodded. Hoever before the Unicorn could speak Right beats her to it.

"What's wrong with him?" The pegasus asked Ponting a hoof towards the black pony. Who at this point had stopped struggling and was now being comforted by the two mares. The pink pony narrowed her eyes. Yet the mare's smile never faltered. Jabbing her partner in the side Star spoke. "What he means is, Is that stallion gonna be okay?" The pink mare nodded. Her tired smile forming into a munch more lively one. "Yup!" Jazzy just has his moments just like everypony else." Star blinked in surprise at the mare. Looking back she saw that the stallion was munch more calmer than before. His expression was completely and utterly blank. He mumbled something that caused the pony who tackled him to rub her cheek lightly against his.

"That's Marble" the pink mare stated causing Star to look back at her. Right on the other hoof kept his eyes on the three ponies.

Just in case.

"The pony that's sitting across from him is Limestone." Star looked over once more. Said pony was indeed sitting across from the other two. Instead of using physical touch Limestone was busying muttering a few words. Unfortunately neither Star or her partner were able to make them out,

"And I'm Pinkamena!" The mare stated somewhat cheerfully. "All though my friends call me Pinks."

Star nodded. "Oh so you know these ponies than?" She questioned. She could see a family resemblance with the two grey mares, but the last two was any ponies guess. "You could say that" the earth pony shrugged. However the tone she used implied that there was more to it.

"Is there a reason your bothering us officer?"

"Oh right" star nodded. The mare got so absorbed in everything that she almost forgot the reason that they came here in the first place. Clearing her throat the unicorn spoke. "We were wondering if you perhaps heard or seen anything strange last night?"

Pinkamena shrugged.

"Naw, me and the others were busy with work and the like." Star nodded in understanding. That would explain why they looked somewhat tired. At least the mares did anyway. As if reading her mind Pinks spoke.

"Jazz Is what we call a pony who rarely ever sleeps." She snorted. "That fact alone means that one of us are gonna have to go through a night without any sleep." "That sounds like he's quit a hoof full" Right remarked dryly. Star had to stop herself from face hoofing.

"We Pies like a challenge" Pinkamena stated with a smile. "All though I can't say the same for your girlfriend here." Both ponies eyes went wide.

"WHAT?!"

Pinkamena made a clicking noise with her tounge. "Oh sorry your probably just fuck buddies my mistake." Both Star and Right blushed furiously. "N-no it's not like that!" Star quickly denied. Right merely snorted at the pink mare. He knew better than to grace her with a reponse. Pinks looked between the two of them for a moment. A calculated look on her face. Suddenly the mare grinned victoriously. 'Ah I see, your friend here is secretly gay."

Silence.

"Eh" Pinkamena shrugs "to be honest I don't really care." Suddenly the mare smirks. She gazed at Star with a look that made the unicorn uncomfortable. "That would explain why your still single." The blur unicorns eyes went wide. "How did yo-"

"Body language!" the mare stated with a cheerful grin. "I mean I'm surprised no one noticed it sooner."

"Did we miss anything?"" Limestone asked. Her Marble and Jazz made thier way towards the group. The stallion himself looked as if the events that occurred earlier never happened."

"Eh not munch" Pinks shrugged. "Oh and Limestone your on suicide watch" the mare in questioned merely crossed her hooves. Jazz and marble on the hoof were seemingly having a conversation. Only it consisted of Jazz babbling complete nonsense and Marble nodding along as if it all made logical sense, and maybe in the mare's mind it did.

"Well it's been fun! But not really" Pinkamena stated as she turned and headed towards the wagon. The rest followed suit. The duo could do nothing but stare as they went back inside one by one. The last one to come in was Marble. Said pony stopped befor slowly turning her head towards them. Her pale green eyes seemed to hold them silently in place. Afthere a tense moment of silence the mare smiled. It looked genuine, and yet both ponies couldn't help but shiver.

"Keep up the good work" she said softly. Her voice was something the duo never heard before. It was softer than silk, and yet something about it made you want to get as close to her as you possibly could, and with that Marble gently closed the door. Her eyes never leaving the duo for a second as she did so.

Silence.

"Well" Right started slowly. The stallion couldn't help but feel more vulnerable than he did his entire life. "That happened." With her mouth hangingly limply open Star noded.

Meanwhile.

Inside the wagon the Pie sisters were too busy laughing thier flanks off. "D-did you see the look on thier faces?!" Limestone wheezed. The mare herself busy clutching her sides as she laughed. Praticily rolling on the floor Pinkamena nodded. Said pony was busy trying to get air back into her lungs. Marble on the other stood between her two sisters. Unlike them however she didn't laugh. She did howver have a small smile on her face. Afthere all the spectacular was indeed amusing to watch. Wiping her tears Limestone looked over at her partner in crime. Jazz howver was too busy tapping on the table repeatedly to notice her gaze. Regardless she spoke. Amusement with a hint of worry dancing in her tone. "Hey Jazz, just so you know you don't need to repeatedly bang your head to trick ponies." The black pony blinked befor looking back at her.

"What trick?"

The laughter stopped.

Pinkamena, Limestone, and Marble looked at one another. Slowly they turn thier attention back to Jazz. Only to see that said pony was busy turning on the stove. "I'm making scrambled eggs! He shouted. Only to stop and repeat said words over and over again. The excitment in his tone never leaving. Slowly Pinks and Marble cast thier gazes towards Limestone. Said pony in particular merely stood up and walked over to Stand next to Jazz as he cooked.

Turns out Limstone was really on suicide watch that day.
