In this Rp, your character is one of the newest members of the Wonderbolts! But there is a twist, in this version of Equestria, the Wonderbolts are not a flight team, here, the Wonderbolts are a super popular, media sensation that also happens to be an infamous criminal orginization! Your character will be starting at the lowest ranks of the Wonderbolts, and you must work your way up through the ranks, following the orders of the teams leaders, Spitfire, Soarin, and the infamous leader of the Wonderbolts, the mare that calls all of the shots, Rainbow Dash. Eventually, you will work your way up the ranks and you will be able to work with these three personally, but remember one thing, you are assigned to your team, and you must stick to your team. Nopony gets left behind. Now, your character is part of the new recruit squad Leviathan. The squad has no leader, and takes orders directly from the high ranking Wonderbolts member Fleet Foot. When on your jobs, you must work as a team to finish your task, once the job is completed, you will recieve your cut of the spoils, and will wait for further instructions. You will introduce your character at the point where he/she arrives at the Wonderbolts Manehatten HQ, and learns of their assignment to Leviathan squad. Have fun!




*Stormwing wandered into the Wonderbolts Manehatten branch HQ. The building was fairly lush, and there were several other ponies milling around. Stormwing was spotted by one of them and was approached.* /So, you're Strormwing, right?/ *The mare asked him. Stormwing nodded.*
"Um, yes." *The mare squinted and sized him up.*
/Hmph, alright. Yer assigned to Leviathan squad. Go to the fifth floor, thats where you will meet up with your temproary boss. And ya need to wear one of these./ *The mare handed Stormwing a jacket. It was blue, with a yellow patern down the belly, lightning bolts around the ends of the sleeves, and on the shoulders and back, there was the insignia of the Leviathan squad, a simplistic design that pictured a blue serpant like dragon. Stormwing took the jacket and put it on.*
"Thanks." *He said calmly, the mare nodded and went back to what she had been doing. Stormwing went to the elevator and went up to the fifth floor, he entered the room, there were no other ponies there.* "I guess Im the first to arrive." *He said to himself.*

Lightning Flash stepped into the Manehatten branch of the Wonderbolts HQ. She lifted a yellow hoof and flipped her short, choppy black mane, and then looked around, her sky blue eyes taking in her surroundings.

 

"You there!"

 

Lighting Flash turned to see a mare speaking to her. "Hey."

 

"You're Lightning Flash, huh?" the mare asked, looking Lightning over.

 

"The one and only." Lightning flipped her mane again.

 

"Uh-huh. Well, you're in the Leviathan squad. Take this." The mare tossed a jacket to Lightning. It was blue and yellow with the Leviathan squad insignia on it. "Your temporary boss is on the fifth floor. Get on it."

 

Pulling on the jacket, Lightning Flash headed for the elevator. She raised a hoof to press the "up" button, but then she spied the spiral staircase. Smirking, Lightning headed to the bottom of the stairs. She then spread her wings and shot up the staircase, zooming around the spiral shape until she reached the fifth floor.

 

"Never gets old," Lightning Flash told herself, as she entered the room. There was one pony there, a grey pegasus stallion with a black mane and bright green eyes. Nopony else was in the room.

Gamble entered the building, taking a look at the scenery around him before he was stopped by a mare with a list. She looked him over and noticed his cutie mark. "Gamble? I'm guessing." He gave a simple nod in responce. "That'a be me." He commented. "Alright, you'll be part of the Leviathan Squad on the fifth floor, you can then meet up the the rest of your team and your temporary boss. You'll need to wear one of these, though." she explained as she gave him his jacket. "Sounds good" He said as he took the jacket and let the mare walk off. He put it on, wearing it open over his shirt and tie and with the sleeves rolled up a bit. The colors didn't fit him too well, but he didn't seem to care that much. He caught the elevator that Lightning Flash called down and took it up to the fifth floor. He hummed a tune on the way up until he found the door and walked inside.

[True Rarity 1,240]

Lightning Flash noticed as another stallion entered the room. This one was a unicorn, and he had a brown coat, an auburn mane and tail, and green eyes, along with a cutie mark of two dice blocks. Calmly, and as professionally as Lightning could muster, she sat up straight and opened a wing, using it to brush off her jacket and flip her mane again while she waited. Unfortunately, she hadn't tried to flip her mane using her wing before, and wobbled off balance, quickly falling off the swivel chair she sat on.

 

"Oof!" Lightning's voice was muffled as her face hit the floor. She tried to get up, feeling the blood rush to her face.

[Mephala 2,633]

The doors of the building parted as a light brown earth pony shoved her way inside, her enormous ego inflating in the room as she surveyed it with the eye of one who had been in a lot of new places before. Next to her stood a large creature, cat-like, which sat down on its hind legs and looked around as well, though his gaze was much more lazy.

"Not what I imagined, eh, Onnen?" said the pony, as she constantly played with a coin in her hoof. The other grunted and shrugged, dark grey shoulders covered in thick fur.

"The Wonderbolts have a vast amount of resources," he pointed out, flicking his scaled tail in a rather bored fashion. "This is just a singular branch."

"And what I wouldn't give to get my hooves on some of those!" sighed the other rapturously. "Lessee what old Mr. Penny here has, to say, then. Will I get some of those pretty little things?" The dark bronze coin in her hoof flickered as it came into the air and then landed neatly on her hoof. She turned it over and grinned.

"A yes. Well, if that ain't exciting, I dunno what is."

"Who's to say you aren't just gonna go bats**t and rob them?" said Onnen, and Lucky grinned.

"Oh, Onnen, dear, let's face it - criminals be criminals."

 

"If you're done talking, I assume you're here to sign up," said some random mare that had sidled up with an irritated look at the pair. Onnen smiled with his fangs and her face stiffened somewhat as Lucky smiled and slammed the coin on top of the clipboard she was holding.

"Looks like that empty head a' yours does have some brains in it after all, girlie!" she said cheerfully, pointing to their names. "Lucky Toss and Onnen, at your service."

"Yes, well," the mare muttered, shoving the coin to the side, "we have your new uniforms here. Report to Leviathan, fifth floor."

Lucky grabbed the coin and tossed it, not speaking her question aloud, and then showed Onnen the side. The two smiled in a rather nasty way, and the mare muttered something about "letting any old fools in" and strode away.

 

Entering the elevator (which was a tight squeeze for Onnen, who was about twice the size of the average mare), Lucky hummed happily. Petty crime, fun as it was, wasn't quite as profitable with the Wonderbolts wrecking all her hard work, and if you can't beat em' you might as well join 'em. Or something. Onnen, on the other hand, was pretty much just looking for an excuse for violence (a chupacabra's gotta eat), so the two had paired up on mutual grounds.

 

Exiting, they found the door and went in to find a motely crew; two pegasi (one lying on the floor), and a unicorn, none of them looking very bright. However, noticing the male unicorns cutie mark, she grinned - looks like she had found a fellow gambler. However, if she wanted to screw these people over later, she had to first make some friends.

 

@@True Rarity

"Looks like someone had an accident," she said with a chuckle, and Onnen extended his hand and smiled, waiting to help her up. "I'm Lucky Toss, but you can call me Lucky; this here is-"

"I can introduce myself, love," said the chupacabra in chastising tone, and he then added "I'm Onnen. So, what brings you here?"

"Why do you always get to ask all the questions?" muttered Lucky, and she surveyed the others. Deciding to talk to her fellow gambler, she approached.

 

@

"So tell me, is your talent gambling, or can I safely say it's board games?" she asked with a grin, then stuck out a brown hoof. "Lucky Toss."

She checked out the pegasus in the corner as well, and then waved him over inviting him to the conversation. (@)

*A few more ponies had arrived in the room, a pegasus mare, a unicorn stallion, an earth pony mare, and a large chupacabra. The two newest arrivals were striking up conversation with the other members, and then waved at him, seemingly inviting him over. He stood up from his seat, chcking his wings to make sure he had he still had his cloud fragments with him, and then walked over to the group.*  "Hello." *He said calmly.* "Guess we have more than just ponies in our squad." *He said looking up at Onnen.* "Its rare for non-ponies to join the Wonderbolts. I guess we are lucky enough to have such a unique being with us." *Stormwing smiled slightly.* "My name is Stormwing, my friends call me Storm, or Stormie, I guess you can too if you feel like it. Its nice to meet my new teammates."

[Chickey 383]

Gamble sat up as he shook the mare's hoof. "I suppose If you can call stealin' and cheatin' games, I play quite a bit of them. So what's your special talent, makin' change?" He commented with a slight grin. "Names Gamble, pleased to me ya." He said. Gamble then cocked his head over to the other few characters in the room. The Chupacabra intrigued him a bit, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. 

[True Rarity 1,240]

Lightning Flash got up, ignoring Onnen's offer for help. "I can get up myself," she snapped, her sky blue eyes flashing. Then she brushed herself off and answered, "Same thing as anypony else here. I'm joining the Wonderbolts."

 

Lightning waited as the other ponies fraternized. After Stormwing introduced himself, she nodded, a bit impatiently. "I'm Lightning Flash. It's... a pleasure to meet you as well." She held out a tentative gold/yellow wing, similar to how humans would hold out their hands.

[Cerise Hood 102]

Star arrived at the Wonderbolts HQ, a few minutes late. "Oh fudge, I hope I don't get in trouble," she mumbled to herself.

 

As she walked in, a mare inside says, "And you are Star Belle, I suppose?"

 

"Yes ma'am,"Star replied.

 

"Fifth floor, Leviathan," The mare said, giving Star a jacket.

 

"Thanks," Star said putting on her jacket. She wasn't wearing her beret and vest, as she usually did, for this exact purpose.

 

Star entered the room she was sent to and found a group had already arrived.

 

"Hey everypony!"

*Stormwing looked at Lightning Flash's outstretched wing. He smiled.* "I would do the wing shake thing, but my wings are not quite in the condition to do so." *He realized this sounded a bit strange.* "What I mean is, I have these small cloud-like objects that I keep in my feathers." *He stretched out his wing and moved his feathers like fingers to reach at the base of a lower feather, and produced a small grey object from it.* "I call them storm-shards. They are condensed storm clouds, it is not easy to make them, but they are very useful, like so." *He tossed the storm-shard on the ground and once it hit the floor, it made a loud crack sound and a bright flash.* "They are like miniature flashbangs. If I use enough of them at once, they can have the effect of an actual flashbang, sometimes even more so. I found out how to make them about a year back, and they are maliable enough to store and conceal in my wings." *Stormwing folded his wing back against his side. He noticed that another new member arrived right as he had tossed down the storm-shard.* "Oh, hello, I hope I didn't startle you." *Stormwing said with a smile.*

"Charmed," said Onnen, chuckling slightly at the stupid mare. He loved the ponies that thought they were so tough, so invincible, too high above others for manners or allies - they were always the ones that ended up getting themselves killed (probably by him, she was pretty chubby around the edges), and he looked forwards to this one dying.

He turned his attention to more entertaining subjects, winking at Lucky, who was also laughing.

"The Everfree doesn't have much food, if you know what I mean," replied Onnen with a smile. "A criminal organization seemed a logical choice for a place to get some easy meals on wheels. Or hooves, if you prefer."

"Well, I guess one could say I have a talent for coaxing money out of hard to find places, whether that's your pockets or no," said Lucky with a knowing little grin as she flipped the coin from hoof to hoof constantly, quick eyes taking in her surroundings. "Don't knock we common swindlers, seeing as you're probably one yourself."

She noticed Storm speaking to Onnen and nodded. "Stormwing. Interesting name, and with that party trick you got there I can see why. Useful."

Already, she was making a list of potential allies in her head; she had wits and Onnen had the fear factor and brawn, so they made a good team, but the grey pegasus was interesting. The yellow one was cocky and boring and seemingly useless, so she ignored her for now, eying the newcomer.

"Pleasure to meet you, dear; and you might be?" she asked, winningly as possible.

[Cerise Hood 102]

@,

 

"I'm Star Belle, nice to meet you too." she noted a yellowish gold coat on this pony, blue eyes, short, dark hair and a lightning bolt cutie mark.

"Nah, you didn't scare me-Hey what is this thing?" she said, gesturing toward the storm shard with her hoof. "And what does it do?"

 

She looked at the 'thing' closer up. "Can I touch it?" Star asked the gray pegasus. He had a cutie mark of a storm cloud with lightning and raindrops.

Gamble leaned back in his chair and relaxed, but that relaxation quickly subsided when the mare talked about his money like that. "I suppose swindler could be a title I possess," He commented. He watched Stormwing with a intrigued look at the shards he had, though he wondered how he flew with those in there. When Lucky looked away towards Star he chucked his pockets, and was relieved when nothing was gone.

[True Rarity 1,240]

Lightning Flash shot a glare at Onnen as she listened to Stormwing. She didn't like the chupacabra much. Then she turned her attention back to Stormwing, allowing her eyes to widen a bit when she saw the storm-shards. "Wow... that's pretty cool," she admitted.

 

She then turned to Star Bolt. "Oh, hey. I'm Lightning Flash."

[Gyro Zeppeli 120]

\You kids having fun?\ *A mare walked into the room. She had a light blue coat, and a white mane and tail. She was wearing a coat similar to the ones the rest of them were wearing, but instead of the Leviathan logo, it bore the Wonderbolts logo. She was a high ranking member of the Wonderbolts.* \My name is Fleetfoot. I will be your temproary boss.\ *She counted up the Leviathan squad members.* \Hmph, somepony's missing. Guess he just didn't want it enough. Whatever, you ponies are under my command for now. Once you have developed enough as a team, and learned to trust each other enough, which will be determined by me, you will decide amongst yourselves who will be the leader of Leviathan squad. Now, you all are special, you stood out amongst the other new Wonderbolts for one reason or another. Maybe you have a unique strength,\ *She looked at Onnen.* \Maybe you have interesting gear.\ *She looked at Stormwing.* \Perhaps a special skill came into play.\ *She looked at Star Belle.* \You could radiate confidence despite what you do.\ *She looked at Lightning Flash.* \Maybe you have skill with, persuation.\ *She looked at Lucky Toss.* \Or perhaps you are just lucky with a damn good poker face.\ *She looked at Gamble.* \Whatever the reason, you were chosen to be part of Leviathan, don't screw it up. Your jackets have a pocket on the inside, within that pocket, is a cell phone. That cell phone has programmed into it the numbers of your teammates, as well as my number. They will not connect to any other phone. When it is time for a job, you will recieve a call on that phone, from me. If you recieve a call from someone, and it isn't anyone from your team, assume that the member who the phone belonged to, is dead. Even if its me. You may be proven otherwise, but don't fall into a trap. Contact the rest of the team, and formulate a plan to get revenge on whatever fucker caused the demise of your teammate. If I am the unlucky one, then you will report back here, and try to get in contact with the main squad. Since I am their teammate, it will be up to them to dish out the revenge. Remember, I am not a member of your team, I am just your handler, for now. You are a new squad, the Leviathan squad. Spitfire, Soarin, and Dash expect great things from you all. So again I say, Dont. Fuck. It. Up. What you are to do now, is to get comfortable, the fifth floor of this building we are now in. This floor, the entire floor, is now your home. If you do not have all of your belongings, call the lobby and give them your home address, they will send someone to retrieve them for you. Or, go do that shit yourself, you aren't babies, you don't need somepony else to take care of you. You are Wonderbolts. Act like it. You will be given your first job first thing tomorrow morning. Until then, you are free to do as you please. Just don't do anything stupid, and let  me reitorate, Dont. Fuck. This. Up.\ *With that, Fleetfoot turned and left the room, heading back to the top floor where she resided. Stormwing turned to the rest of his new team.*

"Well, that was interesting."

"She was quaint," agreed the earth pony, examining her phone. "Rather foul of the mouth, though. I remember, back when I was a filly, my mother used to tell me that those who cursed drank sewage water. It's amazing what you'll believe, isn't it?"

With these words, she looked up from the phone (which she was fairly certain wasn't bugged, though she was bad with technology) and stared everyone in the eyes, silently but challenging, daring them to try and mess with her. Oh, Lucky lacked in the brawn department, but she clutched the coin in her hoof. Chance wasn't a game they wanted to play with a pony who would outstep them every time.

 

Onnen had received his items in silence, also examining them, but having lived in the Everfree Forest he didn't know much about this sort of thing, so he ignored it for now and looked up.

"I'm going out to find food," he said flatly, yellow eyes tired of being cooped up in a close room as he stood and lithely stretched. "Is anyone coming?"

 

Lucky tossed her coin and smiled her yes, standing up to head over to her "friend".

[Gyro Zeppeli 120]

"Sounds good to me." *Stormwing said with a shrug.* "Didn't get a chance to have anything to eat today, so I may as well come too." *He walked over to Onnen and Lucky, he smiled at the two of them and then took out his own phone and looked through it.* "You know, these probably have GPS transmitters in them. I have no way of knowing for sure, but this is a criminal orginization we've just joined, so it wouldn't surprise me if they wanted to keep an eye on where we are." *He tucked his phone back into his jacket's pocket and smiled.* "Anyway, I know of this delightful little resturaunt downtown, its not very well known, but its still very good."

Lucky shrugged. "As long as they don't interfere too much, I'm sure we'll all be very happy happy happy." She sang the last few notes in a high clear voice and then nudged Stormwing. "All right, show us the way. We're new to this city, so relying on you here. Baby, don't fail me now."

"I probably won't be eating with you," commented Onnen as they walked out of the room, and Lucky rolled her eyes.

"I really hope not, you know I don't like it when you get blood on the tablecloth," she said in a jokingly chastising tone, and then glanced at Stormwing. "I do hope that his...dietary concerns won't be a problem with you. They tend to be a little bit of a turnoff for those we meet."

"I won't try to kill you too much," commented the chupacabra with a little grim smile, "but if I do attack you can at least give me an A for effort."

[Gyro Zeppeli 120]

*Stormwing smilied.* "Dont worry, I have means of defense." *He produced another storm-shard from his wing.* "These among other things." *He tucked the storm-shard back among his feathers.* "Anyway, I must assume that neither of you can fly, and since the resturaunt is on the other side of town, I suggest we take my car." *He said.* "Its just down the road, and yes, unlike most pegasai who drive, I do have a licence." *He beconed the two of them to follow him back down to the ground floor and down the road about a block to his car. A nice convertable, with plenty of space for two ponies and a chupacabra.* "Now before I get the inevitable 'why does a pegasus need a car?' I'd just like to say, I had a ton of extra cash I got through, less than legitimate means involving a certain popular crime orginizaton that led me to my current career choise, so I decided to buy a car. And with a car, came learning to drive. Thus, a pegasus with a car and a drivers licence." *He smiled at the two of them and then hopped into the drivers seat.*

Gamble watched the mare leave thinking about what to do next. He figured he better just get himself comfortable, so he left the current meeting room and walked down a hallway a bit in the fifth floor and found an office room. He smirked as he walked in, liking the sound of having his own office. "Finders keepers, dibs, or somethin' I suppose?" He commented as he closed the door behind him and noticed it was quite empty inside besides a bit of furniture, though it was rather nice looking. He sat down at a desk and forged together a name tag with magic to place on his desk. After a few minutes of pondering he got his cellphone out and called down to the lobby and requested them to get some of his stuff at his house to liven up the room. 

 

He watched the items arrive in boxes one after another. "Careful with the record player, it's real expensive." He called out as he started to unpack everything. Once everything was said and done, the room looked rather spiffy, with a vintage touch. He sat down at the desk again with a sigh and dropped the needle down on the record player and played a classical song.

[True Rarity 1,240]

"Hmph. That was... different," Lightning Flash admitted. "But she cusses too much. Anyway, I'm going to go get some grub. See ya later!" She waved a hoof at the remaining ponies in the room and headed out the door.

 

"Now, let's see, if this entire floor is our home, there must be a kitchen somewhere..." Lightning turned a corner and spotted a large, fully-stocked kitchen. "Jackpot! Now, I'm not all that great at cooking, but..." She gathered some chip dip, potato chips, and made herself a daisy and daffodil sandwich. "Now, off to eat." The golden-yellow pegasus plopped down on a high stool by a counter, spreading her feast out in front of her before beginning to eat.

"I see," said Lucky ambiguously, but she didn't comment further. She rarely saw cars, so she enjoyed the feeling of the seat beneath her.

Onnen, however, wrinkled his nose; he didn't like the constraining look of the vehicle, nor did he trust riding on anything besides his own four legs.

"I think I'm going to go now," he said, and he lifted his claw in a sort of goodbye gesture before bounding away. Lucky watched him leave and then shrugged, used to her friends' sudden exits, and turned to face Stormwing.

"So, fancy car. Probably a bad idea in this city." She smiled knowingly, and then asked "we ready to go?"

[Gyro Zeppeli 120]

"Ready to go." *He said calmly, he put the key into the ignition and started up the vehicle. They drove to the restaurant in relative silence, and arrived in decent time. He parked the car and got out, walking around to open the car door on Lucky's side for her.* "This is the place." *He said, looking up at the restaurant sign. The sign read 'Kings Feasts' He looked over to the door of the restaurant and smiled.* "We are in for a treat." *He pointed to the sign that said 'Karaoke Night.'* "Hope you like listening to random ponies lousy singing, because that happens quite often on their karaoke nights. They put the sign out on random nights. Only the owner knows which nights are going to be said nights." *He smiled at Lucky.*

"Ahh... that was good."

 

Lightning Flash, her belly full, tried to sit back in satisfaction, but instead fell off the high stool. "Whoa!" Luckily, she spread her wings and caught herself before she hit the ground, leading to another embarrassing incident with falling off of things.

 

"Okay... I wonder, do we get our own offices here? It would be boring, but official-looking." Lightning Flash left the kitchen and trotted down the hall slowly, surveying the fifth floor. She paused at a door where she heard classical music. Tentatively, she turned to look at the door and examined it before tentatively lifting a hoof and tapping on it. "Uh... anypony home?"

[Song Fire 28]

Song Heart came into the Wonderbolt building (i forgot the real name of it) thinkaing "at least one place in town lets kids under 13 do stuff. even if it is criminal but whatever."

 some grey mare tossed her a jacket "fifth floor Leviathian (i can't spell that...)"

Song thought of saying thank you but she was a little offended by the mares attitude

she flew up the stairs to see that there was only one pony in the room "i guess im early or something"

"or late" she thought.

she put on the jacket which was a little big but she didn't care.
