"Knowing to disappear is always a valuable skill, though the only griffins able to practice it are lucky spies," she remarks.

"No. Our kind has lived in the shadows long before the first Grover dared to leave his tree in Griffonstone. And we shall outlast this last of the Grovers, just as we have outlasted the Katerins. What was different this time was that we moved into the light. We can move back into the darkness as necessary."

Okay, proceeding
Silver finds himself at a door painted a bluish green color in the alleyway. The alleyway itself has not one but two large dumpsters, evidently one for each business, and these provide some cover between the street and the door. The walls are brick and windowless. If anypony noticed Silver, they haven't let him know.
Dark Star watches as Blue Skies, wearing her green sweater, moves around, and through the front door of the Golden Sun restaurant.

Silver gets his shotgun out, and takes a position on the hinged side of the door so whenever the door is opened whoever opens it won't see him. He uses the butt of the shotgun to knock once in position.

Dark Star eventually walks through the front door.
Inside, there is a large brass golden sun behind a hostess stand, and a beige female diamond dog with earrings and an elongated muzzle standing behind it. There is a large bar top visible just behind and to the left of the golden sun, and some booths on the far left. To the right is a widestaircase leading upstairs. The entire aesthetic is dominated by wood - wooden walls, wooden floors, wooden booths. The bar top itself is a dark porcelain that resembles marble, and the same is true of the tables at the booths. The diamond dog looks to Dark Star - who is still yellow Solar Night - and asks in a high pitched voice that sounds appropriately feminine "would you like to go to the bar, or be seated?"

Dark Star moves around, past a tall, potted plant, to the left of the bar... and there she is. Alone, in a booth, with her back to the wall, looking out towards the bar, with a view of the hallway going back, and the front entrance (sort of; it's a little cut off)

"Hmm..."
What could be used in the alley to make a racket? I know there are the two large dumpsters, but are there any smaller metal trash cans in addition to them?

The door swings open
“Damn raccoons. Be gone!”
A pony carrying a rifle - yes, a rifle - swings the door open, and steps outside.
Silver is able to move out of the way, but only just barely

When he's clear of the door, Silver closes it behind him, and points the shotgun at the back of the pony's head.
"There is 12 gauge shotgun pointed at base of your skull. If you do not want them picking out buckshot from your brainstem, you will not call for help and you will not move without my say-so. Understood?"

The pony moves without prompt. It’s a black unicorn stallion, kind of small.
“Hey, woah, woah. Can we talk about it? Heh heh…”
He does at least drop the rifle, and moves back. He has a wide, awkward smile.

Silver allows this movement, at least, as it's to his advantage. He keeps the shotgun levelled steady, and meets the pony's awkward smile with a hardened, determined glare. Silver keeps an eye on the stallion's horn to make sure he doesn't pull any magic shenanigans.
"Bargain Strength, is he here?"

He does indeed look back at him.
When they get up to the upper level, they enter into a small hallway, past a closed door, and to a corner. When they turn the corner - it's to the right, they see a zebra. The zebra sees Silver, and runs.

However, the unicorn's horn lights up, and Silver's gun is grabbed. Silver looses the aim of his shotgun

Silver raises his left leg, and places it over top of the shotgun, pressing it down, and towards the ground. With his magic, he drops hold of the shotgun, causing it to pull closer towards the unicorn, though still down and under his leg.
But he grabs the revolver from his side, picks it up, and quickly levels it towards the black unicorn stallion. In a moment, his ears go down, his eyes go wide, and he opens his mouth to speak. Because in that moment, the stallion comes to understand exactly how much he has fucked up.
BANG
Hit. Roll damage.

From upstairs, there is a very loud "BANG." The waitress looks up, and gasps. "What was that?" The grey stallion at the bar stands up quickly, while the brown mare panics. The diamond dog at the front looks over, and starts to run towards the stairs.

He runs up the stairs, and soon enough, Dark Star comes to the front of the restaurant. Blue Skies does not follow him, The Diamond Dog is actually rather slow in his assent of the stairs, and is followed by the female - perhaps Dark Star wishes to remain a little closer behind.

The Diamond Dog moves towards the back, and the beige female follows. As he nears the back, the female pulls something out from under her clothing, and gives it to him. It's a silver colored automatic pistol, he takes it and grips it, and moves to the hallway.

The hallway is small at first, going past the bathroom, and then to a door, which the diamond dog moves to open. There is an issue, however. The female stops, and looks behind her. She sees Dark Star up there, and also the donkey, who is utterly intent on finishing his burger.

He opens the door, and goes into a hallway which has only a few doors, and a mundane mostly white paint job that has a hint of grey, along with a wooden floor that has not been varnished like the fine wood floors of the restaurant.
Dark Star sees a door open, and he sees - finally - Silver Sword, bleeding in front of the door. The Diamond Dog raises his automatic pistol towards Silver with one paw, and aims.
