He extended his hoof to the fireplace, nothing happened "Wait, out of range." He walked closer to the fireplace and extended his hoof. The fire in the fireplace starts spinning and swirling and heading towards his hoof, while halfway they became somehwat looked like smokes and absorbed by his hoof when the smoke touches it, He was careful to not absorb all of the fire in the fireplace. "Thanks.... hehehe Eat fire" He said to Ink Keep with a smile, he sat down back at his stool and continued finishing his cider.
"So you were saying that she went through a portal in the roof?, damn... Well, what about the explosion earlier?, any idea what happened?" He asked while taking off his hoodie and sunglasses.

Inn Keep took the empty glass of pickle juice he had served hooligan earlier and began to clean it, maintaining conversation with Hacktune.

 

"The explosion was caused by some masked pony: He swung by here just now. He sounded pretty proud of it, so I'm sure he won't mind me running my mouth. I've got cam footage of what he looks like, if you actually bother with these kind of things" He chuckled. "Why'd you ask, anyway? You a hero or something?" Inn Keep joked

"Was, apparently that's all the Hero answered this day eh?" Hacktune let out a chuckle, "Sure would like to see the footage, well... I'm kinda not gonna playing Hero again,  I'm just gonna Have some fun" He said with a bit maniacal tone. He drank his cider to the last tear *burp* "Sorry, anyway It's kinda boring these days. Since the Act of Hero has gone missing, There's just been less fun. no kidding hehe" He said to Ink Keep while spinning His stool around.

Inn Keep retrieved the emptied tankard from the tabletop, bringing it behind the counter to be washed.

 

"What do you define as...'fun', anyway..." Inn Keep questioned, fiddling with the Inn's terminal q little, the Inn's TV flickering.

 

"Stopping a violent rampage...chasing down a petty thief..."

 

The TV flipped to the bar's surveillance cameras.

 

"You can't just wait for these things to happen, and complain that you went there to save the day, or have some 'fun'"

 

The surveillance camera footage began rapidly rewinding.

 

"Maybe you need self initiative. Actively seek this, 'fun'. Maybe you just need to create your own action."

 

 

 

The surveillance camera footage stopped, displaying clear footage of a masked pony and an Alicorn.

 

"....just don't start trouble in the Inn"

Milton sat with a grin on an old wooden bench in the the center of Maretropolis park. It was his first time in this city and his stomach began to grumble of hunger . He stood eagerly from the bench as two ponies walked hand in hand(or is it hoof in hoof? )  at the road in front of him. "You there! " He called at the young couple having a lovely date trotting through the park.

 

"Would you like to play a little game? I promise it will be fun" Milton spoke , his grin growing wider as he grabbed a clockwork pistol from his belt and aimed it at the stallion.

 

"W-what do you want?” the colt stuttered as he noticed the strange pony holding the gun. “I'll give you my wallet just… please don't hurt us" The colt begged as he shook in fear at the mad mane who was suddenly  holding them at gunpoint.

 

"Oh, don't be silly now! I don't want your money” Milton reassured as he walked closer to the two. “I just wanted to play a bit of “ask a pony" and remember now,  this won't increase your post count” He grinned as he readied his gun to fire.

 

"I'm a bit new to maretropolis you see, spent much of my life in the cesspit known as Trot-tham till that Batmane up and left to escape some government law...but I disgress" He ranted his tale towards them.

 

“I'm a bit famished at the moment so I’d like to  to know if you might point me to a nearby bank where I could make a...withdrawal?”

 

“S-s-sure! Just exit the park through gate 3 and turn left till you see the large stone griffin”

 

“I see...well thank you!” He smiled  as he walked away from them. “Oh and… here's some bro hoofs for your trouble.” He called back as he flung two small metal hooves into the ground in front of them. The hooves began to expand with green and purple fumes as the 2 ponies began smiling uncontrollably, their mouths locked in a painful grin as Milton trotted  away.

 

 

@, 

 

"Well now...this isn't a bank" Milton stared as he stood in front of the inn, his stomach grumbling even more. "perhaps all the better" He thought as he walked into the premises and sat on one of the inn's bar stools.

@, 

 

As if on cue, after his little speech, a pony he didn't recognize came in. He Waved a hoof to welcome him.

 

"Welcome to my Inn, stranger!", he bellowed heartily. "You here for drink, accommodations?" 

 

The earth pony lumbered back behind the counter as Vulcan proceeded to sit on a stool.

 

"Or is that a growling stomach I hear?"

Hacktune smiled "Don't worry, troubles aren't usually following me now, Only sometimes. haha" He finished his cider and asked "How much for the cider."

Nightlight looked in surprise for a second as he noticed a 2nd note behind the old one, immediately taking it and reading the hint.

 

"Industrial zone? ...Makes sense. "

 

Getting up again he saw it getting a bit darker outside, smirking lightly as the darkness was his main ally. Putting his suit in a saddlebag the stallion made it out again, tired but not enough to sate his interest.

 

Making his way to a tram and then subway eventually he made it to what was called the Industrial District far off on the border of the city. Looking around at the mostly now abandoned for night factories, he tried and find any bankrupt, broken or unused building that would maybe serve as a hideout for such a pony as the one he was tracking.

 

Looking around he took a turn to a tight alleyway, quickly materializing his suit and teleporting on some high-ground within mere seconds, having rested a bit during the subway ride and feeling a bit pumped by feeling like the end to this chase was just about the corner...

“How about all three?" Milton laughed maniacally knowing at the moment he hasn't had either. "Though I’d prefer we start with the food” Milton grinned a friendly smile as he gestured for a burger and fries from the menu. “I haven’t eaten in quite a while, I’m still quite new here,Mr. Bartender,  just arrived last night actually.” Milton explained with a cheerful tone  as he fished his pocket for some bits and slid a small bag of them  towards the bar keep. “I assume you take trottham coins? They’re the only ones I’ve been able to “attain” from the asylum” He spoke gesturing towards the bag.

 

“they should be enough to cover my stay and necessities for the next day or two while I..."acclamate" myself to this strange city”

 

 

 

"Evening"

 

"Good evening to you too good stallion...or is it mare? I can't quite tell from that hood of yours"

Inn Keep noted his order and turned on the electric stove, preparing the ingredients for the burger.

 

"Just call me Inn Keep" he insisted. "Congratulations on finishing your stay at the asylum, your family must be really happy to have you back... Though then, I must question...."

 

Inn Keep took a pair of keys from a rack behind the counter and set them on the counter while the patty sizzled behind him.

 

"Why... Come here?"

[Vulcan 3,255]

@,

 

"Oh Mr. Bartender" Milton grinned masking a slight chuckle at his reference as began to rest his elbows on the table top.

"You Misunderstand, I suppose you could say I just had an "early" leave without their permission" He laughed maniacally with a hint of ego at his remark. 

 

"I'm Milton by the way"

 

"As for the reason of my arrival here , well that's quite a story" Milton spoke, readying himself for the bar tender's response.

 

"How am I to be sure you won't call the police?" 

[Guest]

Inn Keep flipped the party with expert precision, holding conversation as he worked.

 

"You know, you aren't the first pony to ask that kind of question. Questioning my morals, really. But forget that." He chuckled. "But fine. The reason I won't call the police is... I want to keep this Inn a place of neutrality and peace. Where ponies from all walks of life can get together and be merry. Where the greatest of rivals and enemies can have a drink together and laugh at their feud."

 

Inn Keep prepared the burger and began pouring the fries onto the side. The sound of a lute echoed in the background.

 

"Heh, sometimes it works better than expected. ponies talk things out, get stuff off their chest... You'd be amazed at some of the things that can happen here."

 

He set the meal in front of Milton.

 

"So, in short, I don't really care where you're from, or what your story is, unless you need some pony to talk to. Just don't start trouble in the inn."

 

Inn Keep prepared a tankard.

 

"You want anything to drink?"

Bolt smiled. "We were best friends....until we went our separate ways... I left to learn dimension hopping and I had to leave you to make that happen.... You had to go to college."

 

"I'm just glad we're finally back together. Anyway, come on, the dinner's ready!" She trotted out of the room. "Come on, man!"

Hooligan smiled as he followed Cipher out of the room, "i'm glad we're finaly back together too," Hooligan said happily.

"I'm just glad it's finally time to eat." said Bedlam with a sly grin.

"As am I little man," Hooligan replied, "I am hungry as that yeti we fought in Yakyakistan." He turned to Cipher, "were you with me when that happened?"

"No, I don't think I was," she said, confused. "I think it was already the 'separation age'. Was...that yeti hungry?" She suddenly laughed at the thought of a yeti stuffed with food. "Although that sounds really funny..."

 

Peter followed them as they walked. Bolt picked him up and fed him a carrot.

"He was as hungry as they come," said Hooligan as he continued to walk beside Cipher, "he came right at me and Bedlam. So acting on instinct we did the only thing we could do."

"We had to give him our last cherry pie," sobbed Bedlam.

"Well it doesn't sound as tough when you say it like that."

"But it was really good pie."

"Anyway," said Hooligan trying to change the subject, "what type of fish are we eating tonight?"

"Fried. Possibly with mayo, you never know around here. We've also got burgers. Hoping they've got cheese." She looked at Hooligan. "And pickles."

 

"So, you guys want anything?",she asked as they entered the kitchen, which always changed its location every six hours.

"I wouldn't mind a few of those pickles you mentioned," said Hooligan as he entered the kitchen, "you know how delicious i think they are."

"Can I get some cheese?" asked Bedlam.

Hooligan rolled his eyes and smiled. "So tell me Ci what have you been up to while out of town?" asked Hooligan.

"I've gone into...let's see...about 14,352,671 a day,... Hmmm...." She paused and her horn lit up. Millions and millions of lists appeared and one of them appeared right beside Hooligan. Bolt started browsing each and every one of those lists. Despite the huge number of papers she finished in five minutes. "Okay... I've counted and there are about 1243435252573352753276283548262836382627 dimensions I've been in since we separated, including Equestria and here.", she said, smiling. All the paper stacks vanished and Bolt started walking again.

"Well you certainly have been a busy mare," said Hooligan who was a little surprised that that many dimensions even existed, "I been less then busy myself. I still corse chaos every now and then, but as I told Bedlam it's just not the same since heroes were outlawed."

"Yeah, things have really changed recently. I've been really bored lately because of a lack of anyone to fight. I can just punch anyone I want, it's not a problem at all. I just want to have fun again. But luckily since we met again I'm not so bored anymore."

 

She playfully nudged Hooligan.

Hooligan smiled, "yeah life was never boring with you around," Hooligan said as he also gave Cipher a playful nudge, "speaking of fun, I have a great activity for after dinner."

"It's gonna be off the hook," said Bedlam excitedly

"But before that how about we eat. If that's all right with you," Hooligan said to Cipher.

"Alright! Come on, I'm dying to see what you've got." The kitchen had a floating table and chairs. Despite the weird setting, the food and plates were set perfectly.

 

"Okay....so about the table.. I may need to give you a lift..." She flapped her wings and as she rose up she grabbed Hooligan by the collar.

"A table flying around by itself," Hooligan said as he took a seat, "that's just the type of chaos I love." Hooligan gave a wide grin.

 

Hooligan levitated a bottle of Sir Blackery Apple Monwear 1892 from his bag. "I took the liberaty of bringing a drink for tonight. I hope its not too fancy." Hooligan said.

"Nah, it's fine, I do love a little drink from time to time." She levitated a cup and filled it with the drink. "Although, I've never tasted this before. Is it good? By the way, I brought something too." Bolt said as she reached into her bag and pulled out some juice. She poured it into Hooligan's cup. "Gotta be healthy too, huh?" She laughed.
