The pony smiled and said as he used his back hooves to push the chair out for Maple, "It's fine. After a while, you call tell when someone's new, they aren't confident in their surroundings. Name's Dark."

[Maple Bat 3,568]

"Maple." She said introducing her self. She was pretty sure she was supposed to The pony but couldn't seem to gather up the courage. After a few minutes of siting there she said "So... uhh... I see you're wearing the Royal guard armor. Does that mean you're a member of the guard?"

[reader8363 1,281]

Dark nodded and said, "Yeah, it's a bit difficult at times, along with Chrysalis yelling when one of us bring her food. It's not like the one that has feeling towards each other has to get close to her." There was a noise like something fell, Dark looked in the direction and said, "Guess another one lost."

Shadow sighed as he picked up the pony's drink and gulped down. He said as he walked over to the pony, "I'll be back, have to get this pony out of here." He opened the door and left while carrying the passed out pony on his back.

[Maple Bat 3,568]

Maple laughed a bit "He sure can take a drink huh?" She shrugged "Anyways you serve 'Tia right? I actually serve Luna as a member of her guard. I defiantly think she's a lot nicer to her guard." She said comfortably thanks to what shadow said

[reader8363 1,281]

Dark said as he smiled, "Yeah, there's always a fool that thinks they can out drink him. Yeah, I serve Princess Celestia and judging from how you call them by their name or a nickname, you must be high on the chain of commands."

[Maple Bat 3,568]

"Captain rank, but that's not exactly why I call her 'Tia." Maple said smiling but hiding her fangs "We just have a bit of bad blood between us but I know she won't really do anything about it. She never does." It's because of my parentage. She said But I'm not gonna say that yet.

[reader8363 1,281]

Dark laughed and said, "So you're the one that told the Princess off about the changeling."

Shadow placed the pony on the bottom of the stairs and walked back in. He saw Maple having a conversation and smiled. Then he went back to getting the drinks done.

[Maple Bat 3,568]

Maple froze for a second. "Wait you where..." She said "There for that whole incident. I uhh... Only said that because I felt it had to be said really." She was really embarrassed, she was brave around 'Tia because she felt she had to be but since She wasn't here she was her usual nervous self.

[reader8363 1,281]

Dark shook his head and said, "No, but the word got out fast between guards that Luna sided with her captain against Celestia. I should say my position since you said yours. I'm second in command, actually third, but the second does nothing."

[Maple Bat 3,568]

"Does second in command do more or less than 'Tia." Maple said laughing. "Honestly when I came here I was going to help out Shadow but I guess I made a friend... Sorry I guess that's a bit of an assumption."

[reader8363 1,281]

Dark said as he looked at the clock and saw that Shadow was coming up from behind her, "Less, just lies around and takes credit for what I do. I have to get going. Bye Maple, see ya Shadow." He got up, grabbed his helmet and headed out the door.

Shadow nodded as he stood behind Maple. Then he said, "It seems like you found someone to talk to."

[Maple Bat 3,568]

Maple wrote something in the back of her mind. "Yea." She said "I guess I just need to share something with them to talk with them. Apparently that pony was there when I stood up against 'Tia not doing anything. Sorry I'll keep helping you with the drinks."

[reader8363 1,281]

Shadow nodded and said as he picked up the glass and gulp down the rest of it, "Yeah, guess your learning about these places. Oh, a pony was wondering if you want to try your cla-hoof at drinking, don't worry, there won't be betting and it will be after the shift." He picked up all the empty cup and placed them in the sink. He headed over to the counter to see that the last challenge drained the best drink in the place, he sighed and headed into the backroom to get more

[Maple Bat 3,568]

"I'm still not used to drinks yet." Maple said "So I'll decline that for now. However tell them thanks." She walked behind the counter a bit more prepared to talk to other ponys since she was getting more familiar with the place.

[reader8363 1,281]

Shadow came back and said, "That's alright." He turned to the gentlepony and shrugged his shoulders, then he got back to work. He kept his ears moving back and forth, trying to pick up any info he could get

[Maple Bat 3,568]

Maple continued to help Shadow serve drinks socializing with a few different ponies here and there but not as much as she talked to that guard ,Dark,  one or two ponies mentioned Nightmare Moon but Maple shrugged it off. "If she was to return then she'd get beat again." She said pouring them the drinks they wanted.  "Plus Luna's living a very happy life now anyways those chances are slim."

[reader8363 1,281]

Shadow listened to a conversation and place the drinks down. He sat down and started talking to the pony. Shadow nodded and swore a little under his breath. He looked at the time, walked over to Maple, and said as he got his coat, "We have to go, the shift is up, and I might have learned something."

[Maple Bat 3,568]

"Alright then" She said running out after him she'd had her cloak on the whole time so she just ran out the door "Is something wrong?" She asked because she thought he was in a hurry, mostly due to not knowing when the shift ends.

[reader8363 1,281]

Shadow said as he headed up the stairs, "I got word that some ponies found a strange necklace that made them feel off, plus we worked the shift that my associate and I made." If this is an artifact that could do what's said, then it would be bad for anyone else to have.

[Maple Bat 3,568]

"Off? Like the kind of off I get when I saw the eyes in that water? Or more like if you entered the water kind of off or is this completely different?" She asked so many questions she felt sorry, and he probably doesn't know the answers to them either.

[reader8363 1,281]

Shadow said as he opened a portal, "Apparently, he attacked the other pony with him and ran off screaming, and they were 2 feet away from it." He stepped through and felt a wave of malicious coming a crate

[Maple Bat 3,568]

"Sounds like that water." She said following him "Now where is the thing we're looking for?" Maple asked looking around feeling the same wave of evil "Did... Did you feel that. When we came through." She said nervously.

[reader8363 1,281]

Shadow said calmly, "Yeah, it seems to be coming from the box." He walked up to the box, with each step the waves were getting stronger and stronger." He opened the box to see a horn with the base broken. He picked it up and looked at it.

[Maple Bat 3,568]

Maple looked at it after he got it out of the box "Is that a unicorn's horn?" She said "Perhaps that's from the pony who attacked the other pony... Or well it could be worse..." She was concerned why that was here and more importantly who's it was.

[reader8363 1,281]

Shadow shook his head and said, "No, the one that attacked was a Pegasus, the hooves stop right there, signaling that the attack went into the sky and the one that got attack was an earth pony, the hoof prints showed that the pony dragged itself away." He smiled and said jokingly, "Maybe it's one of your dad's old horns, that broke off." He placed it back in the box, picked it up, and placed it underneath his leg/arm
