                                            >Izzy "I swear I saw him das....I mean Zipp. He was by the docks late at night. We talked under the pale moon light. And then....and then he held my hooves"

                                            >Pipp smiles while recording the tale on her hoofphone. Zipp grumbles and keeps moving Izzy forward towards the Asylum.

                                            >Zipp "Yeah yeah we believe you Izzy. Im sure you will see him where we are going, and you wont be able to hurt yourself there"

                                            >The front doors of the Asylum are opened and a cute mare is mareing the reception desk.

                                            >Pipp runs forward and whispers to the receptionist and the receptionist walks into the backroom.

                                            >Izzy looks very nervous and tries to run. Zipp holds onto her and prevents her from fleeing

                                            >Zipp "Izzy this is for your own good, they will help you. Please just accept it"

                                            >Izzy cries and scrambles with all her might to free herself

                                            >Izzy "No no Zipp let me go he's..real I swear he's real"

                                            >The receptionist Comfy Jacket comes back out with her tall helper that Pipp looks surprised to see. Like an action star her hoofphone is out and she records

                                            >Pipp "Uh Zipp I think you should apologize to Izzy"

                                            >Zipp is wrestling with Izzy and they both go to the ground. Zipp looks up while having Izzy pinned and gasps.

                                            >Zipp gets off Izzy and helps her up.

                                            >Standing by the front desk is Comfy Jacket and a tall green guy

                                            >Izzy gets to her hooves and looks apprehensive. For the last two weeks she had been telling her friends about Anon, and know he is here in front of them. But this is the only time she has seen him during the day.

                                            >Izzy sniffles and slowly walks forward.

                                            >Pipp is busy talking in a low voice to her followers while filming. Zipp is now speaking into her audio recording device.

                                            >Zipp "Mental note, what we thought was a delusion is actual working at the Aslyum. Is this a case of magic?

                                            >Izzy gets within 5 feet of Anon and extends a shaky hoof.

                                            >Izzy "Anon is that really you"

                                            >Behind them an obnoxious little noise comes in from the outside with the pitter patter of reptilian feet approaching behind Izzy.

                                            >Anon walks forward and reaches out to grab Izzy's hoof. Izzy's worried look begins to turn into a smile.

                                            >And then a loud belch is heard. Green dragon fire appears out of Izzy's peripheral vision.

                                            >Anon screams as the dragon fire engulfs him. All the while Sparky laughs and dances.

                                            >Izzy panics and tries to pat the fire off of Anon. But she could never be fast enough. He begins to lose height and gains width. His screams die out and the light in his eyes ends. Within seconds there is only a couch there that Sparky jumps up on.

                                            >Izzy breaks down and sobs. The mares in the room look on in horror. Sparky jumps on the cushions of the couch jabbering in its gremlin tongue. Comfy Jacket weeps into Pipp's shoulders.

                                            >Izzy sees red and loses it


                                            >Izzy yells out while crying

                                            >Izzy " TURN HIM BACK NOW SPARKY"

                                            >Sparky looks indignant, crosses his arms , and shakes his head muttering some gremlin speak

                                            >Izzy "I WON'T ASK AGAIN SPARKY TURN HIM BACK NOW"

                                            >Zipp puts a hoof on Izzy's shoulder and tries to calm her

                                            >Zipp "Its not worth it Izz, you know you can't change his mind once its made up"

                                            >Izzy turns to Zipp and lowers her head. Her tears drip onto the floor making a small puddle.

                                            >Izzy "Its not fair Zipp, the first stallion I was ever interested in and felt something truly there with. And..and Sparky does this to him"

                                            >Zipp looks up at Sparky with a cross look on her face

                                            >Zipp "Sparky turn him back now, can't you see how much you have hurt Izzy"

                                            >Sparky shakes his head and mutters more gremlin speak. He then sits down on the couch and drags his ass on it while laughing.

                                            >Pipp covers Comfy Jacket's ears and leads her into the back room. She herself looks to be sad as they both disappear from view.

                                            >Izzy looks back up and sees what Sparky is doing. She refocuses and lifts up the pistol. There is only hate now in her eyes.

                                            >Just at that second Hitch barrels through the door

                                            >Hitch "Whoa there is my little buddy and IZZY WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?"

                                            >Hitch shrieks out and Sparky senses he has gone to far. They both see a flash of light along with a loud boom.


                                            >Sparky belches fire as a bullet spits out of the gun. The bullet is quickly transformed into a critter squirrel. A critter squirrel that is going crazy fast slamming into Sparky's head.

                                            >Sparky is thrown back heavily into the couch cushions. All one could see is a squirrel half buried in his head. Blood and gore cover his head and the back of the couch.

                                            >Hitch screams running over to the couch and cradling the corpse of Sparky. In the process his face and chest get dressed with bits of gore and blood. Hitch cries and moans.

                                            >Izzy is breathing hard and drops the gun. She collapses onto her hooves and continues to cry.

                                            >Zipp watches in shock over what has transpired.


                                            >1 day later

                                            >Hitch is outside of the jail cell looking at Izzy with daggers in his eyes.

                                            >Izzy is currently laying on the jail bunk with her face buried in a pillow.

                                            >Zipp is outside the cell shaking her head

                                            >Zipp "Hitch she told the truth, Pipp told the truth and had video of it, and I told you the truth. How hard is for you to accept that Sparky murdered that green monkey. And not only that but now all those missing cases of ponies kinda make sense. Sparky may have been intentionally or not murdering ponies on a whim.

                                            >Hitch looks at Zipp and shoots her daggers as well

                                            >Hitch "Thats easy for you to say Zipp you have never been a parent, but I have. That Anon never existed and Izzy murdered Sparky in cold blood"

                                            >Hitch looks to his sheriff's desk and sees a picture of him with Sparky on his back. They are both smiling. He sighs and walks out of the office. Zipp walks over to the desk and looks at the photo.

                                            >Sure enough there are Hitch and Sparky looking happy...but there is something she can't make out in the background. Its a pony but they are covered in green....the proof was there all along.


                                            >The Sherriff office door opens and a grumpy Posey walks in.  Posey looks around and spots Zipp.

                                            >Posey “Hey deputy have you seen the Sherriff , I have to report something serious”

                                            >Zipp grumbles and flies over to Posey and then settles on the ground

                                            >Zipp “Posey im a detective not a deputy, and he stormed out of here a while ago.  Whats going on, I will take it up with him”

                                            >Posey looks over at the jail cell where Izzy is looking up from the pillow.  Posey shakes her head.

                                            >Posey “Serves her right for harassing me so much, but we have missing ponies.”

                                            >Jazz walks into the office and gets beside Posey, she looks sad which is different than her usual upbeat self.

                                            >Jazz “Posey you were supposed to wait for me..”

                                            >Posey rolls her eyes

                                            >Posey “As I was saying Sprout and Rufus have been missing for a few days now”

                                            >Jazz nods “And I haven’t seen Rocky and Windy as well.  I don’t think they ran off together because they came here from your city Zipp.”

                                            >Zipp rubs her chin.

                                            >Zipp “So…where did they go missing and how long ago”

                                            >Jazz “About the same time as Sprout and Rufus.  It’s the weirdest thing with Rocky.  We were in mane melody with some down time.  I was working on some new hooficure designs and he was talking to me while he was working on a busted mane machine.  He stopped in mid conversation and a I thought I heard a belch, then I heard was a sound of furniture moving.  It took me a minute but when I looked back he was gone and all I saw was a grey piece of furniture disappearing out the front door. ”

                                            >Posey punches Jazz in the shoulder making her yelp lightly

                                            >Posey “Jazz you didn’t tell me about that.  Now I was tending to the shared garden and mending what some of those tourist horn heads did to the vegetable rows.  Sprout came running by the garden and was yelling something I couldn’t quite hear.  He disappeared behind a tree and then I saw a bright flash and a scream.  I dropped a hoe and walked over and there was that menace sparky doing Celestia knows what.  It was weird he had this red and blonde desk with him, and just walked away with it.  I searched for Sprout but it’s like he just vanished.  That rabble rouser owed me a lunch”

                                            >Jazz sighs “Yeah Rufus and I were supposed to go to a roller rink on Saturday.  I miss my hoof buddy”

                                            >Posey gets close to Jazz and gives her a hug, Jazz hugs her back and sniffles.


                                            >Zipp has written all this down and is thinking on how all these relate.  Zipp walks back and forth in the office.

                                            >Posey stops hugging Jazz who looks like she wanted to hug more.

                                            >Posey “So whats Izzy really in there for anyways?”

                                            >Zipp utters out while pacing back and forth “She killed Sparky in retribution for killing her friend”

                                            >Posey looks at a depressed looking Izzy and at a distracted Zipp.  Posey grumbles something about Izzy finally doing a service to Maretime bay.  Izzy looks up and sees Posey fish out a pair of keys from the sheriff’s desk and unlock the cell.

                                            >Posey “Im only doing this because I hated that Lizard.  He destroyed my flower beds, he bit Rufus during the Nightmare Night celebration, and he always looked at all of us creepily.”

                                            >Izzy gets off the bed and walks out of the cell and hugs Posey who looks like she wasn’t suspecting and did not want the hug

                                            >Izzy “Thank you Posey”

                                            >Zipp looks up from her pacing and leans on a grey chair that has blonde hoof rests and a red backing. Izzy drops the hug and goes and lays down on the green couch that Zipp helped Hitch drag into the office.

                                            >Zipp “Huh Hitch really spruced up this place lately.  I don’t even remember half of this furniture being here last week.  “

                                            >Zipp sniffs the chair and then gets a weird look on her face.  Jazz walks over and looks at Zipp and then squints at the chair, and then at a light blue and grey table.  Jazz rubs a hoof on the table and has a tiny smile on her face.

                                            >Jazz “You know Posey this table reminds me of Roofus.  Its big and strong and warm.”

                                            >Zipp puts on her super detective googles and looks around the room.  She works the setting dial and then sets it on an infrared.

                                            >Zipp “Huh that’s weird all of this new furniture is showing heat signs to them but the old furniture isn’t.  This is strange”

                                            >Posey huffs and then sits on the red desk.  She gets a blush on her face and looks down on it and gives it a light slap and whispers at it.

                                            >Izzy walks over to Zipp who reels back as Izzy came right up to her field of view displaying a giant heat signal right against the goggles.  Zipp takes the goggles off.

                                            >Izzy “Zipp my great aunt Treasure told me those ponies are here right now.  I just don’t know how we can bring them back to us”

                                            >Zipp ponders for a second “Soo all this new furniture is just…Sparkies’…”
