Immediately knocking the tire over I ran over to the truck and pulled open the door. Inside was a little blood and there was some blood on the sidewalk as well. Narrowing my eyes I opened up the compartment where the maps would usually go and searched through it until I found my SIG. it was a gift from my father when I graduated from high school and moved into the house Grandfather gave me in his will.

Quickly checking the magazine inside of it and realizing I only had three bullets thoughts went through my as I reinserted the magazine and looked towards where the small blood splatters went. Holding the SIG in my left hand and using my right hand to cover the magazine area. Keeping the gun pointed at the ground the small blood trail soon lead into an alley when I heard a muffled scream.

"Shut it bitch! Yo Frankie when is Leroy supposed to get here?"

I'm just going to say this now I'm not trying to be racist and I have several friends that are black and they are some of my best friends.

"I just made the call not even a few minutes ago! Told him the details and he said he was going to be right over! You know what that means!"

"Hell yeah man! We did good!" I peeked around the corner as I saw two people… one was in the light of a lamp and he was black. Must be one of the resident gangs doing a job. Soon spotting Pinkie's body lying on the ground I could tell her hands and feet were tied up and she was also gagged. Narrowing my eyes as I spotted the second person hidden in the shadows I began to wonder just what they were doing.

"You think she is good enough for the boss's personal harem?" I heard more muffled screams as well as watched Pinkie struggle. But this isn't good at all… if they want her… they will always come for her. Hearing them say a few more things I moved out into the open and cocked back the pistol. They immediately looked at me.

"The hell you doing to my pony?" I asked.

"What the fuck man!" the one in the light yelled.

"Calm down Ty! Its probably not even a real gun." Aiming to the right of the man's head I fired a single bullet that went past his head. Now they had a time limit until the cops came due to the loud bang. "Fuck!"

"Let my pony go…" I snarled at them as they took a step back as I took a few steps forward.

"Wow man easy there! We'll pay ya for her!" I glared at him as I aimed back at his head as I saw him start to sweat. "Whoa whoa!"

"Untie her… now!" the man in the light looked towards his friend in the darkness as he nodded slowly. Then the man in the light went over to Pinkie as I walked over a few feet until a gunshot hit my gun as the crouched man pulled out a knife. Gripping my hand from the sudden force of the gun going flying from my hand I quickly spotted the man come at me with a knife in his right hand. He came at me with a leftward diagonal as I ducked and moved to the right slightly.

After he missed me he came at me with a rightward slash as I pulled my gut backwards as he missed. After he missed he tried to swing the knife upwards into my skull as I bent myself backwards as it missed but then he immediately came downwards as I spun to the right and moved to the left before elbowing him in the gut behind me as he spewed up some saliva and a small amount of blood. The knife flew from his hands and onto the ground before a massive amount of pain came into my left leg as he had another knife which he planted into me.

Yelling out in pain as he twisted the knife and I could feel it against my bone. I quickly grabbing his head which was over my right shoulder and flipped him over me and onto the ground face first before I proceeded to curb stomp his head knocking him out. Stumbling back I heard a click as I stopped wide eyed. "Take another step, besides stumbling cause I see your in massive pain, and you will be dead before you can even say fuck." I stayed unmoving almost as I stumbled in place.

"Why do you even want her?" I asked as I ripped the knife out of my leg as I muffled the scream that came up through my throat. As I held the wound with my left hand and held the upside down bloody knife in my right.

"Because the boss tasked us with going for ponies we deem…" I could hear him smirk evilly. "Perfect for entertainment." My eyes widened slightly before I began to think of a plan. I couldn't take him with an injured leg even if I was a yellow belt in karate… I don't really even remember most of what I was taught but the instincts I gained from that plus the muscle I got from working on the farm I knew I couldn't take him and I didn't even know how far he was behind me!

Soon police sirens could be heard as I smiled. "Damn it you called the fucking cops!"

"You won't get away… even if you decide to just kill me now…" I stated with a smile. I went through too much for her to go back now! Immediately I was kicked in the back so hard I heard a few cracks as I went flying and tumbled out into the street. I puked up a little blood as I struggled to get up only to fall back to the floor.

"Lance?!" and there's my friend… I watched in the alley as he stared wide eyed before a gunshot hit him in the side followed by a second into the head… he fell to the ground dead as Ben ran in with two other officers and the last thing I heard was yelling as I watched Pinkie get pulled to her feet…

Ben's POV

It's been two hours since I had brought Ben and one of his ponies to the hospital… he's one of my best friends outside of the force! I was surprised to see that the pony he had with him knew how to shoot a gun… but that might end horribly for her in the end cause without Lance's knowledge of what happened she could be in a lot of trouble. "You alright?" I asked the pink pony.

I was allowed a few days off from the incident to help my friend on the farm and was driving in the truck oh his with the pink pony up front. "I'm alright…" she eventually whispered.

I smirked. "I may not know how close the two of you had gotten in not even a day but it's going to take more than being mugged to keep him down." I stated as I turned the truck onto the road that lead to the farm.

"He protected me…" this made me raised my eyebrow. "Dash said humans are selfish beings… yet he protected me." I slowed down the car a little so we could do the talk.

"Not all humans are like that… he took a knife for you and got the shit beat out of him…"

"They wanted to take me away…" her many and tail were flat then the poufy hair she had when she was bought that was something I just now noticed. "I knew some of the words they said when I was in coming from our world to this one… something about adding me to a harem." This caused me to abruptly stop the car.

"What?!" I yelled as she flinched. "At least I now have enough evidence to put that disgusting man in the slammer…" I tried to start the car again but it wouldn't start as I let my head fall forwards as it hit the horn… creating a long sounding horn.

I sat myself back up as she hit the truck and it whirled to life. Staring in disbelief her hair was back to normal as she giggled. "The one that brought us here had to do that!" she said with a goofy grin as I chuckled.

"Now I see why he bought you." She giggled even more as I began the slow move once more. But now this confused me… sullen one moment and a giggly schoolgirl the next.

"I'm going to give him a party when he comes home! As a thank you!" she said happily as I threw my head back and gave a short laugh before looking at her with a smirk.

"Are you now?!" I stated as she nodded excitedly. "What are your friends going to think about that?!"

"I don't know." She was calm again with the flat hair… it's like connected to her mood for fucks sake!

"Just throw the party then anyway!" she looked at me in confusion. "Do the party and tell them the story in the process so they will help! Although I doubt he will enjoy it…"

"Why?" I looked at her with a straight face.

"He is not one for parties. Hates surprises period and prefers to know if something is coming up or not. I can't remember the last time he had a birthday party!" I stated slightly angry before calming down as the farm came into sight as I sped up to normal speed. "Anyways just do something for him. Just don't work on the farm alright?" she nodded while giving a salute while bouncing back and forth like a board being sprung.

And it made me laugh my ass off as I sped up once more before slowing down to take the turn into the dirt road as immediately all the ponies he had bought ran out the door looking very angry as I gulped. I know they don't like him but Jesus Christ it made me want to kill myself with the glares they were giving!

Immediately Pinkie jumped out of the car happily and ran over and hugged them all as they stood their confused before smiling. So they were just worried for their friend. Understandable…

Opening the car door they all glared once more but it turned to confusion once more as they saw me step out and close the door. "We got grocery's to unload ponies!" I yelled as Pinkie ran over to assist me as I pulled out the key I snatched from Lance. Unfortunately I don't think some of the fridge stuff survived but we should be alright for now. As I opened the back and pulled down the ramp I walked in as she jump past me and with abnormally strong strength she picked up at least 300 pounds of the stuff and stepped out with ease.

Staring with an open jaw I shook my head and decided it was just a trick of the light as I began grabbing stuff myself. After about 20 minutes of getting stuff inside and storing it away where necessary I gathered them all in the living room. "by now you are all thinking of where Lance is… don't know if he told you all his name but he's the one who bought you…" they were scattered about the living room as I leaned against the wall near the TV. "Well… he was injured while helping this pink friend of yours." She nodded as they all widened their eyes in surprise and looked at each other. "He's currently in the hospital with many broken ribs, a very deep knife room several inches above his knee that has touched bone, and then finally many scrapes and bruises when I saw him get kicked out of the alley…"

"Are you sure this is true?" I looked at the mare.

"And you are?"

"Rainbow Dash…" she growled.

"Well then Rainbow Dash I saw his wounds myself and on the drive here Pinkie stated that he saved her from being taken away and put into a harem." Many of them grew disgusted looks on their faces while the large stallion covered the ears of the two young ones the best he could. "I will tell you this now in case he never told any of you he was forced to buy you to protect the last and only thing he received from his grandfather when he died. His grandfather was more a parent to him than anybody else in the family and he would of lost this very farm if he didn't buy you."

"He told me about that earlier today." The orange mare stated with crossed arms as she leaned against the door. "But why are you here?"

"Simple… I know he will get all freaked out if someone wasn't on the farm that he knew really well when he is in the hospital. Although with that leg of his he's not going to be doing any farm work." I stated. "And I'm not a farmer myself so I don't know what even needs to be done."

"We could help!" Pinkie shouted as I shook my head. "But why not?"

"his grandfather took care of the entire farm by himself… everything here… chickens, rabbits, ducks, cows, a large garden in the back, everything was taken care of by his Grandfather and he had to learn how to do it himself when he passed on. Believing he needs to be the only one to do the farm work every day."

"So like applejack when she was too stubborn to accept any help when I was injured…" the red stallion stated as I raised an eyebrow.

"Mind explaining that please?"

"He was injured during Applebuck season so it was just me to take care of many orchards of apple trees." I smiled at the orange mare's short story.

"He always wanted a few orange and apple trees. I suppose he now has a reason as to why to get some." She smiled.

"Why are you even telling us this?" Dash asked angrily.

"Because he's going to need help and I'm going to need help… I can't take care of this farm on my own and he can't with his now injured leg and healing ribs. I can talk him out of being very angry for a little bit but if I forced any of you to help he would find a way to kill me without the law knowing!" I stated slightly scared before calming down.

"Why should we?" the orange mare asked with narrowed eyes.

"Think about what he has done for you all in just one day… I know him so he would give all of you the only beds on the house and he would either sleep in the chicken coop or the barn… he went out with one of you to get food and stuff… and lastly all he actually needed was three of you…" I stated whipping out the paper I snatched from Lance's pocket. "States here all he needed was one unicorn, one earth pony, and one Pegasus by order of his horrible parents." I stated before putting the paper away and then looking back at them. "So he could of just gotten three of you and saved himself the trouble of taking care of all of you… but he instead helped keep a family together." I started by motioning to the three ponies near the door. "And then helping her friend." I motioned to the fourth near the door. "As well as keeping the rest of you together…" I stated motioning to the rest of them. "Then giving you clothes to your liking and letting you keep your possessions as well as pets!" I yelled as some of them leaned back from my yelling. "And you're asking why you shouldn't help willingly?!"

"We get it…" the cyan mare stated annoyed.

"Just… help please. If you decide yes tomorrow morning you can all wake up with me and we can begin the day on a good note."

"I'm out…" I glared at the cyan mare as she walked out with an uncaring tone as I looked at the others with a hopeful look.

What's going to happen? I know that's what your asking Scarface! Only my mind knows cause I always do improve with very little planning involved! Tomorrow I work on Angel of Magic V2 so don't expect any chapters tomorrow on this story but even then my birth mother is coming so I might only get just one chapter up for that tomorrow early in the morning before she comes. I already have quite a good chunk of it typed on so I'll continue it a little tonight and finish her up in the morning.

Onto the riddle!
