>>69540Sister Ash still looks unsure.
>>69534"..Marey.. Could I get back to you later this afternoon? I think I've found something that could be of use."
>>69544New horse tips the sleepy bartender one bit.
"Thank you."
I continue listening to conversations that are none of my business while simply holding the drink.
>>69543"Your hubris will get you killed. You think you're the world's greatest fighter because you took down a few anarchists in bar fight. These guys we will be going up against are anything but 'weaklings.' We can expect experienced mercenaries, foriegn advisors, secret agents, and a hell of a lot more commies than just 5. And so long as we are comparing numbers, I've taken down a hell of a lot more than 5 in my short time on this continent. So please, stop telling us all you are the greatest fighter ever, because you haven't done anything but lose in my presence"
>>69545"You're free to do as you like. You've already done much for us, more than we could ever thank you enough for. We can have the older foals help with basic chores"
>>69546"My name is Shimmering Spark... though I never cared for it."
>>69548Iron shrugs "Guess I will show my prowess to you when I have the chance then."
>>69546Blue Skies stares at you, as if she wants something
>>69550She seems contented with this answer
>>69548The mare grabs her broom and her satchel
"I'll message you back later on. Take care now."
>>69553"Before I leave, did I hear something about Communists?"
>>69551"Not much anymore. I just wander around and cause a little mischief for fun now and again."
>>69554".. You'd have to ask Mr. Star about that. I'm not all that familiar with Equestrian ideologies. Apparently, they might have something to do with the Waterfront."
>>69555Checked"How Do you Feel about communists?"
>>69558"They are a mixed bag. They are the easiest to pull a joke on, but the hardest to get a laugh from."
I chuckle.
"But I suppose you mean how I view their policies. If they love their communism so much, why not sneak over to Stalliongrad? Because they want to take what we have for themselves."
I sigh
"What little we have anyway."
>>69559"And i suppose you can do magic since you are a unicorn."
>>69559"That much is true. They are weaklings as far as I know"
>>69560"Yes. I know a spell or two."
>>69561"Why else do they roam in packs?"
>>69560"When were you meaning to set off?"
>>69563"After Our Bat Friend Does Some Recon."
The batpone awakes with a start, having nodded off. "Apparently its not good practice to go a day and a half without sleep," he Eeeee's to himself.
"Yes, reconaissance!" he proclaims, downing the remainder of his unfinished drink.
>>69556She show him an empty glass
>>69557"I'll tell you what Communists are. Who they have shown themselves to be. In the revolution in Aquellia, Communist rebels went into a convent of the order of Boreas, and gathered the nuns in a line. They told each to renouce their faith, and every one that refused, right then and their, had her throat slit, and their corpse thrown into a well. This is besides, of course, those Priests of Gryphus they put on river boats, then set on fire, or those long buried corpses they un-buried and displayed to show the public that the nuns were but ordinary gryphons -
as if that weren't bloody obvious. And when the "moderate Democrats" won control of the government, they confiscated all Church property, banned
all religious education, and removed all religious symbols in public buildings. They even removed religion from the cemeteries. Would you believe that? What happened in Stalliongrad wasn't quite as dramatic, but the result was the same. These are people are not simply goddless power craving bullies. They wish to destroy the spiritual. They believe everything is material, and the only motives are economic. And that is the world they will bring about by any means necessary."
She is almost crying
"I
hate the Fascists. They betrayed our Princesses, and they took half of our foals because they feared we would teach them the Princesses were the rightful rulers of Equestria. But let me tell you, I hope they arrest every communist, and I hope they overthrow those bullies in Aquellia and Stalliongrad while they are at it"
>>69561"They will teach you real quick, buddy. Arrogance can be fatal."

>>69562"How would you like A job?"
>>69568"A job? Sounds like trouble for a trouble maker, but what did you have in mind?"
>>69567"BarColt Another Drink for my friend miss skies."
>>69567"We will do what we can to destroy it sister."
>>69567"O-oh.. I had no idea.. o_O Th-that's unthinkable..!"
>>69568"Then, I'll take my time to prepare." The mare replies, clutching her broom
>>69567Iron only response is a sideways glance.
>>69570Blue skies is contented by that
Sister Marery wipes a tear and composes herself
"May Celestia be with you"
>>69571"Not unthinkable lassy. It could happen here."
>>69573"If you don't come back, that saves Dark Star 200 bits. So in think as you please"
>>69569"How would you like to Prank Some communists?"
>>69572"Ill be here."
>>69574Iron grins "We shall see who stands, mare."
>>69575"Then again.. I don't really have anything to prepare.. Except maybe finding a bigger stick."
>>69576"If it's them left standing, they will eventually throw this whole city into chaos. And the jungles down South as well. Much is at stake here."
>>69577"wouldnt it be funny if when the tried to fire their guns they exploded?"
>>69578Iron interjects "Speaking of which, I have to pick up something up at the Jungle Rush armory. When we pass there, I will pick it up."
>>69579"It is charming that you care for my kind, mare." Iron smiles. "Do not fret, I will not fail this mission when my honor is at stake."
>>69580"Hmm... I haven't done something like that in a long time. But hearing your stories about them. I'll do it."
>>69581"Oh, don't misunderstand me. I'm conveying the concerns of my employers. Not that I want lose yet another home"
>>69585"Hi" The blue pegasus says
The batpone, having missed the introduction of the sapphire pegasus, simply shrugs and carries on with his now tardy mission of performing reconnaisance of the docks and warehouse. Nodding to the bartender on the way out, he leaps into the air and takes flight.
>>69585>>69586"I take it we can prepare, then?"
>>69586"Hello." The Kirin says politely
>>69588"Yes. You'll want the strongest armor you can buy, a quiet but lethal weapon, and, well, preferably a gun for when things get really nasty. Getting to know the area first would also be useful"
>>69589"I believe he's selected you as well? I am his assistant in this manner"
>>69587"Hi There. You seem shifty"
>>69588"I'm as prepared as I'm going to be today.. Carry in with your provisions."
>>69590"Pleasant to meet you." The mare replies
"I go by the title of Sister Ash."
>>69592"Sister? You're a nun? Neat. My name is Blue Skies"
>>69590He would(?) appreciate the comment, except he immediately bolted (he's not much for introductions)
