(To know what the characters look like go to Deviantart and my account is Pudgemountain but go to my gallery under TUGS to see them and this takes place in modern times not the 1920s and there is cussing just to heads up)
Prologue:
(Captain Star narrating) Bigg City, a coastal city in Equestria that has a port and harbor, Fireworks factory(Munitions Depot from TUGS), scrapyard, couple of other places, and two wagon pulling companies known as The Star Ponies and the Z-Manes. I am the owner of the Star Ponies Company and I have 8 workers mostly consisting of Earth Ponies and they are Otis Jones or as everyone here calls him OJ who is my oldest member he is maybe old but is strong and smart he can think of good plans to help us out and win contracts, Warrior and Big Mac two of my strongest ponies Warrior is maybe clumsy but he can get the job done and even prove that he can think of good plans and Big Mac he is maybe big and looks scary but he has a heart of gold, Top Hat one of my two unicorns he usually pulls things for the railroad and he is a bit of a snob "I heard that" Said Top Hat (sighs)why do I always have to argue with him, Where was I oh yeah Ten Cents one of the teenagers who works for me he is smaller than the others but he is just as strong, Sunshine the other teenager and unicorn who works for me he usually works with Ten Cents, Grampus a little Pegasus that I adopted is used for mainly spying on the competition and surveying just in case something bad happens and other things he is the only Pegasus with us, and finally my prize worker Hercules an Alicorn who is the biggest and strongest worker in Bigg City he usually does long hauls to farther places which he helped us win the grand royal contract for Princess Celestia. Well now I will give the narration to the author. (Author)Alrigh today is an average day here in Bigg City and inside an office building the star ponies were sitting at their desks when suddenly near a window a megaphone was there and someone or should I say Captain Star was talking through it "Alright your orders for today OJ the lumber company needs you go to them and pull their wagon to the fireworks factory so they can repair the buildings that Bluenose destroyed, Big Mac and Warrior we are at competition with the Z-Manes for the pipe contract go deliver the pipes to the fireworks factory, I would send Hercules with you but he is doing a very important job over at Canterlot and Warrior you also need to haul the garbage when you are done and Top Hat the Railroad needs you to haul train wheels go do it, Ten Cents and Sunshine, Burke and Blair need help from you to haul scrap metal from the bridge that the Z-Manes destroyed to the scrapyard and then do the same thing with the munitions depot, you all got that" Said CS "Aye Sir" Said the ponies "But why do I always have to haul railroad parts I always end up pulling the wagon with Frank and Eddie next to me who make fun of me" Complained Top Hat "Well Top Hat if you don't like that then you don't have to haul the train wheels I will make Warrior do it and then you can haul the garbage how would you like that" Said CS "(Monocle falls) Well on second thought I will haul the train wheels" Said Top Hat who putted his monocle back on "I thought so now all of you get going" Said CS "Aye aye sir" Said the ponies who all left, well how will this day go but first let's see how the rival company is doing. In a another office building nearby similar to the star's but is more run downed and in different color 5 ponies mostly Pegasus were sitting at their desks they are known as the Z-Manes who work for Captain Star's rival Captain Zero, you got Zorran the leader he is very rude and devious and is a good planner just over confident and is one of the original members of the Z-Manes, Zebedee the biggest and strongest of the Z-Manes infact he is about as strong as Big Macintosh in Ponyville even though Zebedee is a Pegasus and he is the second original member, he is not as devious as Zorran infact he has a good side in him but I think he does not want to show it because the others would probably make fun of him, Zak the only Earth Pony and only non-Pegasus of the Z-Manes he is the second strongest and is very devious he might even be more devious than Zorran he is usually seen working with Zebedee and will most likely have a lit cigarette in his mouth and he doesn't care that cigarettes are dangerous which did cause him to become sick and lose some major contracts a couple times especially one that caused a bridge to collapse, Zug the smallest of the Z-Manes just like Ten Cents he does small work, he is not the smartest but he is not the dumbest either and is a coward, Zip the newest member of the Z-Manes he is usually seen working with Zug and he is like Zug but only worse. The Z-manes were sitting when suddenly Captain Zero spoke through a megaphone that was poking out of a window "Now listen you bastards here are your orders for today you all know we are in competition with the Stars for the pipe contract, Zorran I want you to try to stop the Stars from winning any means necessary don't fuck it up, Zak and Zebedee you go haul the pipes to the fireworks factory, Zip and Zug go to the harbor they need help from you two to load some fish into a train called The Flying Kipper and when that is done you need to haul some of that fish in a wagon to the supermarket got that" Shouted Captain Zero "Aye sir those stars won't know what hit them" Said Zorran who left with the others to work. Will the Stars get the contract or will the Z-Manes get it tune in next time on MLP Bigg City Adventure same Equestrian Channel.
