Jackson walked out of his Apartment as he looked down to the Notes he got from Allera yesterday,on it stood all the Information about the case and findings from the Store and the Thief and what he tried to Steal.He put the Papers back in the inside pocket from his Jacked as he walked up to the Store where Allera was allready waiting in front of her Muzzel was Buried in her Papers as Jackson walked up to her.

"Good Morning Jackson its good to see you.....say you got the Notes i had sent to your Adress?"

"Jap I got them......sooo what is the Plan do we just walk in or?"

"I informed my Soldiers about the Plan and they are ready to come to this Store if we are not back with in 2.Hours know Jackson I want you to stay close to me we don´t know what will await us in there and if they really have the Stolen Jewels I think yo know for yourself that they won´t give them up without a Fight."

Jackson rolled his Eyes at the remark from Allera but laught because it was true.The Two opend the Door to the Store the small Bell atop the Door once again signaling that Customers arrived.The Onwer of the Store a Unicorn Mare with a Sunflower Yellow Fur and a Bright White Mane walked out of the Store room as she took a look at the Two giving them a bright Smile.

"Good Morning Miss and Sir how can I help you?"

"Morning Miss my Partner and i are here for a very special Buisness and we had the Hope that you could help us with that matter...."

"Ohh of course just give me a Second Please Miss Royal Guard I need to Check on someting and then when im Back I can help you.."

The Mare walked away from the Checkout leaving Allera and Jackson standing in the Store,suddenly Jackson tapped Allera on her Shoulder as he bend down to her slightly as he carefully wisphert into her Ear making Allera lose a bit of coulour from her Face at Jackson´s Words.

"Hey Allera this truly is the Right Store I can smell....the Scent of the Jewels..."

"That...that is good to know lets take a look around while the Mare is still gone tell me if you find or see anything suspicious alright.."

Jackson gave Allera a nod as the two carefully walked around the Front of the Old Flower Store,there was nothing really unusuall the Cubords where filled with Small Flower Pots,Small Gardening Tools and a Few small Bags of Magical Plant Fertilizer.Allera walked up to the display Window of the Store undereath it stood a few Flower Posts that had beautiful Plants inside them but most of them where Empty accept for the Dirt inside them.Allera lifted a Box away as one of the Pots fell on its Side revealing its inside,Allera looked down to the know Spilled Dirt from the Pot as her Eyes stopped on a white Object poking through the Dirt,suddenly Jackson walked up behind her with another one of the White Objects in his Claws.

"A....Allera those...those are Bones real fresh Bones of a Diamond Dog......you don´t think those are the Bones of you know....."

Allera looked up at Jackson with wide Eyes he himself had his Ears brought down flatt to his Head.Allera looked at the Bone that stuck out of the Spilled Dirt along side the Bone that Jackson still held in his Claws,she put her Front Hooves up to her Brow before she Shock her Head.

"I.....i don´t want to belive that it is him....but it sadly looks like it...the evidence are laying right in our Hooves or well Claws...."

Allera and Jackson stood over the Bones giving them a preyer and sad looks as suddenly the Mare walked back into the Room,she looked at the Two as a wide grin spread across her Face,Allera looked up to her with hatred in her Eyes as she saw the Magical Aura charge up around teh horn of the Mare.

The Mare struck out with a strong White Magical beam as Allera jumped from her Position tackling Jackson bringin them both on to the Ground as the Beam shoot over them hitting and almost breaking the Front Store Window.Allera rolled away from Jackson as she swiftly opend her Pistol holster as she Pointed it directly at the Unicorn.

"Whyy did you kill him what is going on here.....in the name of the Royal Guard i command you to tell us right know about what happend here "Allera screamd as she gritted her teeth.

"Ohh please lets just say we helped the Old Dog to cross over the Brige it would have happend soon anyway we juust sped up the Process that is all and know mehehe he makes great Fetilizer for our Plants and Flowers!"

Allera stared at the Crazy Unicorn Mare her Pistol still held steady in her Snout towards her as behind Allera JAckson slowly lifted himself of the Ground as he bumped into something behind him or well someone,as he looked behind himself his Eyes widend as a nervous grin spread across his long Snout.

"U...uhhh Allera we might have a really big problem......"

Allera brought her Gaze slowly over to Jackson as her Weapond was still aimed at Unicorn that seemd to wait patiently as the Two Griffons that know stood behind Jackson gave her a nod,without a second to spare the Two Griffons launched themself towards the Royal Guard and the Diamond Dog as the Mare who had waited patiently took the moment and ignited her Horn again.

Allera sprang to the Side as she quickly turned around and with a devastating Kick of her hind Hoove that hit the Griffon right in the Beak,the Griffon fell to the Ground as he screamed holding his know broken Beak blood leaking out from his nostrils.Allera spun around quickly as the Beam from the Mare hit her directly in the Side flunging her right throught the Front Store Window with a loud Crash.
Jackson saw with schocked eyes as the Window shattered immediatly he jumped away just in time as the Second Griffon tried to grap him,he ran towards the Broken Window screaming Allera name as he saw the know quite Wounded Royal Guard getting back up on her Hooves,she looked up to him as the Second Griffon with his Broken beak managed to take hold of Jackson´s Tail pulling him back into the Store.

Allera jumped back through the Window as she send a Shot right into the Chest of the Griffon that held Jackson,the Griffon let go of Jackson as he fell backwards to the Ground blood leaking out of his Bullet Wound.Allera spun around Weapon held firm in her Muzzel as she hit her Pistol right across the Face of the Mare that had just tried to teleport behind Allera bringing her down to the ground,Jackson used the moment from the dowend Griffon as he launched himself on top of the Mare who looked up at him with an angry stare as she suddenly once agai let a grin spreat across her Face as she Teleported away from right under Jackson´s Claws and Allera´s Pointed Weapon.

The Second still mostly unwounded Griffon launched himself across the Room,Jackson saw this as he brought his Claws up hitting the Griffon right into his Side´s while Allera managed to jump out of the Way just in Time,the Griffon crashed against the Wall his Side´s bledding from the Claw wounds but he quickly tried to recover but Jackson managed to throw himself on top of him keeping him on the Ground.Allera ran through the back of the Store opening every door looking for the Mare as she opend the last door from the left Side of the Store Allera froze in her tracks,the Mare turned around with a small Bowl in her Magic inside it where Black Rose Pedals....

"Mhm judging by your Face Miss Royal Guard you seem to know what those Flower Pedals can do......"

Allera gritted her teeth as the Unicorn swallowed the Pedals suddenly her Pupils grew small as she let of a crazy laughter,Allera spun around running back down the Hall as the Floor behind her Exploded in a strong Magical Aura that launched Allera right over the Heads from Jackson and the Griffon and was still under him.The Griffon used the moment as Jackson was in schock and distracted he lifted himself with the Help of his Wings from the Ground taking Jackson with him smaching him right against the Celing.
Jackson fell back to the Ground his whole body aching as he slowly turned his Head towards where Allera had landed from the Magical Blast,she laid unmoving between the know fully smached and broken Flower Pots her Armor was bent and even broken in a few places,small cuts covered her Body bleeding bad.

Jackson tried to lift himself up to get to Allera as the Mare walked in front of him grinning down at him,he groweld at her Face as his Head was pulled back abruplty by the Griffon that had Crashed him into the Celing know holding a Sharp Talon on the Diamond Dogs throad.

"Sooo Sunflower Peach what do you say about our Dog Friend here should i cut his Throat make him bleed.....i would count it as payback for sratching my side´s that are still bleeding....."

"Nooo Draff let him alive he is not as importandt as the god damm Royal Guard over here.....looks like i did hit her powerless this time....."

"You took the Black Rose Pedals didn´t you Sunflower Peach i can see it in you´re Eyes is that why you´re Magic was so strong all of a Sudden?"

"Mehehe indeed i did these Guards just won´t give up so i had to act fast and strong...believe me i will not let a Cunt of a Royal Guard and her bucking Assistance Dog mangle our Plans we finally have these Jewels and the will NOT TAKE IT AWAY!!!"

Jackson held his breath the Talon was still at his Throat as the Unicorn Mare now known as Sunflower Peach continued to Yell around the Store that was mostly directed at the Griffon Draff who still held Jackson up in his Talons.

"Ughh well it doesn´t matter.....now what do we do about your dear Brother...he got his Beak broken and got shot i really don´t think that he will survive...unless....."

Sunflower Peach walked over to the badly wounded Griffon he was still breathing but it was really shallow with her Magic she wrapped the Griffon in it lifting him into a sitting position as she managed to open his Beak dropping another small Portion of Black Rose Pedals into his throat.Jackson looked with Horror as the throught to be Dead Griffon opend his Eyes the Pupil turning to small sliths...suddenly the sound of a Gun shot rang out in the Store as the Griffon that held Jackson yelped as a Bullet streaked his cheek .Everyone turned there gazes toward the Broken Flower Pots Allera stood there steaming Pistol in her Muzzel her body wounded but still standing firm.

"God dammit how are you even standing you Cunt i hit you with a full blast of my Magic how are you stupid Royal Guards always soooo hard to take DOWN!!!!"

"Well that is because we are Royal Guards we are trained to be as Strong and Resistant know get your Talons of Jackson and in the Name of the Royal Guard you three are here by Arrested!"

The Griffon let go of Jackson flying back over to his Brother and Snflower Peach as Allera stood her Ground right in front of Jackson as his Eyes grew wide as he realized what Allera was Planning."

"A..Allera this is madness not even you can take on Three Enemy´s that is way to much and you are Hurt pretty badly....!"

"I have to Jackson im a Royal Guard it is my duty to protect the City and the Pony´s,Griffon´s and Diamond Dog´s that live in it and right know you are the one i want to protect and keep safe.."

"Y...you want to protect me......"

Allera gave Jackson a smalll smile as all Hell broke lose the Griffon launched himself at Allera rage in his Eyes as Allera and Jackson jumped out of the Way with Allera shooting her Pistol at the Griffon,Jackson saw the Unicorn charge her Magic again as he Jumped on her Back biting into her Horn as she Screamed.The Mare kicked out as she ran around the Store trying to get the Diamond Dog off her back that had biten himself into her Horn,the Griffon that chased Allera doged around in the Air as Allera took shot after shot at him missinf but also hitting him many Times.
The Mare charged herself and Jackson into a Wall in hope it would throw of the Diamond Dog of her Back but it didn´t.

"Alright that is it i have enough of all of this GET OFF MY BACK!!"

The Mare screamed at her Horn grew dangerously brighter with Magic as Jackson finally let go off her Horn jumping of her back as a giant Explosion ripped apart the entire Store lauching everyone against Objects and Walls.
Allera´s Ears rang as she opend her Eyes she and Jackson got thrown against the Far Wall,she looked next to her at the Unconscious Diamond Dog she tried to lift a Hoove to see if Jackson was wounded as one of the Griffons came over to the Two.
He grapped Allera at the throad as he hit her Head with full force against the Wall finally bringing her to fall Unconscious.

"What the..Allera what was....."

"Those are my Guards i recognize there Voices...how long have we been in here..they are looking for us..we have to get out we need to help them..."

"Know know calm down my dear i just made sure Sunflower Peach´s wish came true....one more Guard gone is nothing......so stop struggeling and let it End we can´t have your Guard members rescue you now can we......."
