Black Widow growled, getting up. Instead of giving him a chance to stand, She immediately stomped on his groin as hard as she could.
"Take that you sexist ass!" She yelled.

"I hope you can never have children again." She growled.

Black Widow yawned, laying on her back to be a bit more comfortable as her captive wallowed in pain.

Posted 23 June 2014 - 02:54 PM
((Just to clarify for any members reading that, I suggested that he do that to forward the plot, it isn't a deus ex machina))
Black Widow got up, kicking James in the stomach once more to make sure he wouldn't get up before getting ready to fight the rest of the mafia, her pocket knife held in her magic grip.
Posted 23 June 2014 - 02:57 PM
Having watched for a little while, Vivian was quite glad the mafia had arrived.
She leapt out of the darkness, sword drawn...
Shiiing!
The blade hacked through the chest of one of the mafia members. The neck, head, and part of the upper torso came flying off, and blood spurted as lungs were exposed.
Vivian then skidded across the floor, her sword covered in blood, and kicked off the nearest wall to stand up.
"It wasn't a fair fight"
((should I have spoilered the organ bit? I didn't really think it was that gory.))
Posted 23 June 2014 - 03:05 PM
((Idk, the admins and RP mods would probably appreciate spoilering any gore))
Black Widow engaged in combat with one of the mafia members, stabbing wildly and fighting in the same manner she did with James, using nearby trashcans as weapons as she threw them at her combatant, who was rather agile, but hit in the legs by one of her throws, causing him to yell out in pain. She lept on her opponent, stabbing him in the chest while yelling out in anger.

((To me gore is vivid despcription. Naming something isn't gory, it's simply pointing out something. This is especially useful when describing injury during combat, eg. "Potipah received a blow to the stomach, resulting in internal damage. She coughed up blood." Gore would be something like this:
Of course, in this case such gore should only really be included if necessary. However, if you do feel like adding description of this kind it's fine as long as it's spoilered and there's a warning above said spoiler.))

Black Widow was tackled off of the mafia member she was stabbing, only switching to the mafia member who had tackled her, aiming for his face.
"I'll kill you all! All of you criminal bastards!" She yelled, stabbing wildly.

Posted 24 June 2014 - 01:50 AM
Black Widow watched the coward run off, tempted to give chase and kill him too. However, she put her knife in her pocket, yawning.
"Well, that was fun." She said, popping her neck, looking at James.
"I'm not sitting on you any more. You're a shitty chair." She chuckled.
Posted 24 June 2014 - 01:56 AM
Posted 24 June 2014 - 01:58 AM
Black Widow growled, but stopped.
"Only fair, I suppose. I insult you, you insult me." She said, putting her knife back as quickly as she took it back out.
Posted 24 June 2014 - 02:10 AM
Posted 24 June 2014 - 02:11 AM
"...What the hell did you just have to do?" Black Widow said, bringing out her knife in case James did anything insane again.
Posted 24 June 2014 - 02:14 AM
Posted 27 June 2014 - 05:38 PM
"You speak like a kindergartner. I killed your mafia buddies, I can kill you just as easily." She said, keeping her knife ready.
(Short post sorry)

Posted 28 June 2014 - 12:36 AM
After an uneventful visit to the tattoo salon, Potipah decided to return to the alley by the coffee shop and see if the situation between the mafia and Archangel had developed. James was still in chains and Black Widow was still snapping at him. No, nothing had changed.
"I killed your mafia buddies, I can kill you just as easy."
The earth pony scowled. "You're just making him laugh." She gestured to James. With that, she put a single solid hoof on Black Widow's blade and forced it down. "And let's be honest, you're not going to kill him. Or at least, I won't let you."
Posted 28 June 2014 - 11:54 AM
"Oh, so if he breaks out and has a gun to your head, which he would, you're not going to let anypony put a hoof on him? I don't think you understand who exactly we're dealing with here. He is from the MAFIA. If he's given an opportunity, he will kill any of us without hesitation." She said. Despite her outrage, she closed her knife and put it away, scowling at James.
Posted 28 June 2014 - 12:15 PM
Potipah sighed. "Okay then. No, no, nevermind." She paused for a moment, perching on a bin and trying to rethink her argument. "Wouldn't you prefer to get information out of him? Those Archangel ponies might stop being so fucking ambiguous for a few seconds if you gave them some intel about these mafia blokes."
Posted 28 June 2014 - 08:09 PM
Posted 28 June 2014 - 08:32 PM
Potipah sighed. Yeah, it was hopeless. Maybe Black Widow was right after all.
She slid off of the bin and crouched down by James. "Well then, I guess I'll take you back to my apartment for the time being. If you're not going to tell me anything, well, I might send your buddies a little letter written on that pretty picture on your flank. Detached from your body of course." Finished, she forcefully pulled James up and latched her left forehoof through his.
"Come on, then! No stupid shit, that won't be very nice."
Posted 28 June 2014 - 08:43 PM
Posted 28 June 2014 - 08:47 PM
Potipah sighed and kept walking. Eventually they reached a cream-coloured 1964 Lincoln Continental. She shoved the bound stallion into the back seat and took the front seat herself. The mare leaned back, turning to talk to him.
"Now, notice that there's a gun in the cup holder. Yes, it's loaded. No, you can't reach it. Yes, if you try to break out you'll get a bullet somewhere pretty fucking painful. Put that shit together, yeah?" With that, she put a key into the ignition and the car rumbled into life. "Also, no I don't care if you work out where I live."
Posted 28 June 2014 - 09:05 PM
Posted 28 June 2014 - 09:16 PM
"You'd get them to kill... A lady?" Potipah asked in her most sarcastically-concerned voice. "Oh no, p-please don't.." The exaggeration was painful for her to produce, but she hoped it would irritate James even more. Two could play at being smarmy bastards.

"Awww, but I thought you liked this tone of voice judging by how much youu use it!" Potipah whined, not faltering yet. Admittedly, she was quite enjoying it. The mare now put a hoof on the gas and the car started moving, rumbling along the ground slowly at first.
((But I thought you LIKED whining! Also, waiting for Black Widow to catch up mebbeh))
Posted 28 June 2014 - 10:50 PM
Posted 29 June 2014 - 05:08 PM
The Archangel returned to the group, sighing.
"I couldn't find Potip- wait. Where's James?"
Black Widow laughed, sitting in a corner.
"They both left. I couldn't stop them."
"Damn it we have to go find them! Any information that James has could be vital to taking out the mafia in this city!" She said anxiously.
"Well, they're in a car at the moment." Black Widow said apathetically.
"Well I'll just have to go find them." The Archangel said, galloping after the two ponies she was looking for.
Posted 29 June 2014 - 07:30 PM
Posted 29 June 2014 - 10:01 PM
"I'm not stopping the car for shit. My apartment's just around the corner." Potipah grumbled. She turned a corner and then stopped the car. "See?" She gestured to an apartment building, then opened the door and hopped out of the car before opening the door for the backseat. With sarcasm, she bowed like she would to a queen. "Madam." The mare soon stood back up straight and grabbed James, pulling him out of the car then shutting the door. The mare turned a key in the lock on the car, and a loud 'chunk' sound reassured her it was secure.
"Oh, whoops." She said, realising she'd left the gun inside. It was in plain sight, but she shrugged. "I'll put you inside then come get it."
Posted 29 June 2014 - 11:46 PM
Posted 30 June 2014 - 12:17 AM
"...Yeah." Potipah said, looking at James critically. It wasn't actually that great. Sure, it looked nice and modern, but the landlord was a money-grabbing fat cat who charged a leg and your first-born as rent. Of course, that wasn't a literal expression, but she'd seen what he'd do to those who didn't pay. "It does the job." She said, and opened the main door to the apartments.
The interior was adorned with a polished marble floor, wooden planters with little pruned trees in them. Right ahead, there was a spiral staircase. Potipah took this set of stairs upwards, towing James behind her.
When they reached the top floor, Potipah went and took a key out of her bag and jammed it in the lock. She turned it once to the right and jiggled it about - nothing. She now turned it to the left, and the door unlocked. It opened on a fantastically modern, minimalist and clean apartment, but Poti was unfazed by it. She'd lived here for years now and had become used to its charming aesthetic. The large but sparsely decorated bookshelf, the small, clean kitchen, the pristine walls and floor, the bedroom (with double bed) and its en-suite with large bathtub, shower, sink and toilet. Well, actually, it was pretty damn nice.
The mare now sat James down on one of the two dining chairs in the apartment. "Stay there, please. I'm going to go and get the keys." She said, visibly erked by the rhyme. She now moved back to the entrance, leaving James alone in the apartment. She would only be a minute.
Posted 30 June 2014 - 12:27 AM
Posted 30 June 2014 - 01:34 AM
Potipah got the gun from her car and was now returning to her apartment up the stairs.
Posted 30 June 2014 - 01:43 AM
Posted 30 June 2014 - 01:50 AM
Potipah returned to her room and opened the door to find James flopping about like a fish on land. "Aww, poor baby." She moped, tilting her head to match the angle his was out. "Aw-aw-aww." She set the gun down on the dining table and set him back on the dining chair.
"Listen, I just want to know some info about you mafia guys. I'm going to show you a picture of my client. You're going to help me figure out who he is. Those Archangel ponies will probably be here soon, they're gonna have some questions. The rules are: mess up my apartment, your ear is getting chopped off. Not even as a whole, I'm gonna slice that all up while it's still on you. Kapiche?"
Posted 30 June 2014 - 02:10 AM
Posted 30 June 2014 - 02:11 AM
"If that's how it plays out, fine. But at the moment, I'm quite enjoying this." Potipah placed a mocking kiss on James' cheek. "Want anything? A drink, some peanuts?" She asked.
Posted 30 June 2014 - 02:21 AM
Posted 30 June 2014 - 02:24 AM
"A bobby pin? Well, I can style your hair if you want, I suppose." Potipah said. It was quite obviously sarcasm, she knew exactly what he'd use it for. "Salt or sweet? For the peanuts, of course." She made her way to the kitchen, which was open so she could still talk to him.

Posted 30 June 2014 - 02:57 AM
"I might do." Potipah smiled softly. She grabbed a bag of salty peanuts and opened it. "These are nice." She set the bag on the table and popped a few into James' mouth, then went and took a box of bobby pins from a shelf at the vanity in her bedroom. She came back to the main room of the apartment and took a hairbrush from a table by the door, then began to brush through James' hair. "I'll put in the pins when I'm ready." She smiled.
Posted 02 July 2014 - 02:49 AM
The Archangel followed after Potipah and Squint, entering the building and seeking out the pair. Getting some information from the landlord, who happily accepted a few bits in exchange, she went up to the apartment number which belonged to Potipah. She knocked on the door hastily, making sure her gun and weapons were holstered.
Posted 02 July 2014 - 03:15 AM
Posted 02 July 2014 - 11:05 PM
"Oh, I'll get them if you're good." Potipah beamed at James. She now went to the door and opened it. She was a little disappointed by the guest, but didn't show the emotion and didn't stop them from entering. "Well done! You win! I've got peanuts for your prize. First though... Put your weapons down. I'm not gonna kill you, I actually respect you, and the little mafia member isn't going anywhere." The mare took a step to the side and raised a hoof to indicate where James was sitting.
"I gave him some peanuts. Please don't mess up my apartment."
Posted 02 July 2014 - 11:08 PM
"I... hmm?" The Archangel said, looking at Potipah through her gas mask as she shut the door behind her. She shifted her gaze to James, saying nothing as she found some peanuts and gave them to him, sitting at the table, looking to her sides to make sure both of her sidearms were loaded.
Posted 02 July 2014 - 11:45 PM
Potipah went and took a seat on the kitchen counter, since there were only two chairs. This would be tricky... She couldn't really afford to tend to the mafia member, what with her work. Maybe she should call it out for the moment...
Conveniently, the phone rang. She went to answer it and lifted the phone from its stand, it was her colleague. "Oh, hey there! I was about to call you. What's up?"
"We just got a lead on your guy. Unless you want to check it out, I'll go over there."
The mare thought for a moment, glancing back at the Archangel member and the mafia bloke. Leaving them alone was possible, but she doubted either of them would tell her anything afterwards. "Actually..." She said slowly, now turning back to face the wall, "You should go over. I've got myself into a situation here, I'll contact you later about it if I'm allowed, haha." The mare laughed flatly.
"Right, no problem. I'll just e-scroll you when I'm finished so you can read it later, good?"
"Yeah, that'd be brilliant. Cheers, I'll phone you when I'm free. Hanging up." The mare took the phone down from her ear and pressed the 'end call' button with a smile before plopping it back down on its stand, triggering a 'bleep' sound. She now trotted back to the pair, shooting a smile at them both then taking her seat on the counter, crossing her legs and sitting back using her forehooves to support her.
"Anypony for a drink?"
Posted 03 July 2014 - 01:18 AM
Posted 03 July 2014 - 01:23 AM
Potipah rolled her eyes, but obliged. The mare took a wine glass from its hanging position and got a bottle of wine that was already sitting on the counter. She opened the bottle with her teeth, then poured it into the glass before putting the cap back on. "Only got red, it's nice and matured though." The mare now put the bottle at a distance and studied the label. Yeah, it was nice stuff. Not too fancy, not too expensive, but a great flavour.
She put the bottle back down and lifted the glass, returning to the table and setting it down in front of James. "You two, please don't fight in here. If you have to get violent, you'll have to be removed."
Posted 04 July 2014 - 01:53 AM
"Well, a lot of things, actually." She said, removing her gas mask.
"One, who do you work for?" She said, shaking out her mane that had gotten in her face.
Posted 04 July 2014 - 09:50 AM
Potipah rolled her eyes. "Oh, for fuck's sake." She muttered, it seemed he'd be getting the whole song and dance. "He works for the mafia, quite obviously: and we all know who's at the head of that organisation."
Posted 04 July 2014 - 01:51 PM
Posted 04 July 2014 - 04:47 PM
"Well, for now, I want you to cut the swearing, but in the long run, I want everything you know about Don Blackheart's home. Security details, who works where, what weapons his guards have, etc." She said, simply.
Posted 04 July 2014 - 04:57 PM
Posted 04 July 2014 - 05:04 PM
The archangel just laughed, getting up from her seat, not even bothering to respond to his original question.
"What sort of advanced weapons? We talking hoof-held rail-guns, guns that can shoot around corners, or by advanced do you just mean M4s?"

"Good." She said, laughing a little.
"Now, what about you, what do you think of Don Blackheart?" She said, sitting back down.

Black Widow waited back in the alleyway with Vivian and the others, yawning.
"I'm bored. Wanna go see what's up?" She asked, mainly to Vivian.

"Sure, I guess"
Posted 04 July 2014 - 05:18 PM
Posted 04 July 2014 - 05:25 PM
The Archangel stared at him with an amused expression.
"You already got in trouble with that goth pony for calling her a man." She laughed, watching him writhe on the floor.

"Well, we may as well get there." She started trotting to the nearest apartment building, looking to see if Vivian was following.
Edited by scifidude47, 04 July 2014 - 05:25 PM.
Posted 04 July 2014 - 05:53 PM
Vivian followed, moving at a faster pace towards the building.
She didn't say anything.
Posted 04 July 2014 - 08:10 PM
Goth pony?
Potipah reared up on her front legs and bucked the Archangel in the head. "Fucking arsehole. Come into my home, insult my friends. Get out."
Posted 04 July 2014 - 08:15 PM
The Archangel, taken by suprise by Poti, was knocked onto the floor, getting back up as she turned to face Poti.
"Look, I apologize. I didn't know her name and if you haven't noticed, I'm a little stressed." She said, brushing some dust off of her uniform.
Posted 04 July 2014 - 09:03 PM
"That's really not an excuse. Be more polite and I won't ask you to leave again." Potipah huffed, then went and sat on the sofa. "You'll get me fucking stressed too." She took a book off of the coffee table and continued reading it from where she'd left off earlier.
Posted 04 July 2014 - 10:37 PM
"Fine, no more questions." She said, sitting back down.
"Have any questions for me?" She asked James.
---
"You seem awfully quiet." Black Widow said to Vivian, noticing her awkward quietness.
Posted 05 July 2014 - 12:22 AM
Posted 05 July 2014 - 12:26 AM
"My hooves are tied, sweetie. That's up to your captor. Personally, I wouldn't let you go with a gun to my he-" She said, pointing to Potipah, pausing so that she wouldn't get kicked out of the house.
Posted 05 July 2014 - 12:51 AM
Potipah thought on it. She wanted to let him go in a way, but on the other hoof...
"How about you stay for a little longer? We can all loosen up a little. I've got the rest of the day off work, so I'd be glad to have some company. I can order pizza and we can watch a shitty comedy film." The mare had a keen, friendly smile on her face. "I'll let you out of the cuffs if you oblige, mister."
Posted 05 July 2014 - 01:14 AM
Posted 05 July 2014 - 01:40 AM
Potipah grinned. She could deal with this. "I'll order the pizza first. Toppings?"
Posted 05 July 2014 - 01:45 AM
"Nothing." The Archangel said, yawning as she loosened her uniform a little. She put the safeties on both of her sidearms on, to try and prove that she would not attack.
Posted 05 July 2014 - 02:11 AM
"So... What, bread? Foccacia?" Potipah wasn't sure if the Archangel member just didn't mind or if she really did want plain pizza dough.
Posted 05 July 2014 - 03:24 AM
Just a normal cheese pizza." She said simply, taking out a cell phone and absentmindedly texting.
Posted 05 July 2014 - 06:32 AM
Vivian shrugged "I'm a quiet person"
She reached the door of the apartment, and motioned for Widow to let her in.
Posted 05 July 2014 - 06:48 AM
Black Widow trotted in with Vivian, going to the landlord and asking for the apartment number of Potipah.
"Hell's bells, how many ponies are going to ask for her number today?" He said, grumbling as he told her the apartment number, after a bribe of about twenty bits. Black Widow thanked him, trotting up the stairs with Vivian.
"I sure hope that that Archangel didn't get into a fight with James..."

Posted 05 July 2014 - 05:15 PM
((Good point, sorry))
Posted 05 July 2014 - 05:21 PM
Vivian didn't look like she'd considered paying. If it was her choice, she'd probably have threatened the landlord.
"The people are corrupt. You shouldn't have paid him"
She climbed the stairs and then said.
"I hope she did"
Posted 05 July 2014 - 05:27 PM
"It probably wouldn't have turned out good for Squint. The Archangel was armed. Also, if I wanted to start a fight, I would've." She said in response to Vivian.
Posted 05 July 2014 - 05:32 PM
Vivian didn't look at anything.
"Why wouldn't it? What James does doesn't mean she's done something"
She opened a door.
Posted 05 July 2014 - 05:48 PM
Potipah was startled by the door opening. "More guests!?" She exclaimed, then went to the door. Seeing who was there, she knew what to say. "He-hey, it's Potipah, you want pizza? You want conspiracy? We got it all... But not the pizza yet." She welcomed the pair in. Hell, she might have to go get alcohol at some point. This could be a party.
Posted 16 July 2014 - 02:53 AM
As they all wandered about in the room, mingling, Potipah spoke up. "I think I'll have a fag." The mare went to the window in the kitchen and opened it wide, then grabbed a cigarette packet from the counter. A lighter was already inside the pack. She took a single cigarette from the bunch with her mouth, then held it between her teeth while she took out the lighter and sparked it, creating a little orange flame that she used to light her cigarette. Once the flame was out, she put the lighter back on the counter by the open cigarette pack.
She now leaned out of the window and used a hoof to pull the cigarette from her mouth briefly to puff a cloud of white smoke outside into the sunset. It was hot and still, so the little puff lingered for a short while before it disappeared. The scent wasn't present in the apartment, but Potipah now smelled the scent of her cigarette. It was subtly fragrant with a pleasant smell, perfumed like incense but not too strong. Obviously it wasn't like the usual cheap brands you'd smell on the streets and Potipah wasn't among the super-rich, but she did like to splash out on some things. The apartment, the fags, the wine: the good stuff.
((Bumping this RP, post please))
((EDIT: Shit, ****incense, not incest))

Black Widow's eye twitched at the word she had used for cigarette, almost ready to tackle her to the floor, only to remember she was referring to a cigarette. She calmed herself, sitting down next to James.
"Hello chair." She said, snickering.
Posted 16 July 2014 - 04:38 PM
Posted 16 July 2014 - 04:51 PM
((James is still cuffed and the fact that you've forgotten shows that at least some of us need to be paying a smidge more attention to this RP.
))
Potipah took the cigarette from her mouth, tapped it on the windowsill, then turned back to the group. "Pizza, pizza, right. I ordered 3 large ones: margherita, spicy and a four seasons. They should be here pretty soon." With that, she glanced down at her cigarette briefly before popping it back in her mouth. As the calming fumes soaked into her lungs, she started to relax a little bit. The situation from earlier had put her on edge a little.
Posted 21 July 2014 - 08:01 PM
((Shit, I forgot about this rp. Sorry guys))
Vivian stepped in. Like always, she barely said anything. At least, till pizza was mentioned.
"I'll just have one slice of Margherita. Thanks"
She moved forward, stepping on James' head as she walked.
Of course, she didn't apply any pressure. The man was just a scumbag, and he was in sore need of people to remind him not to act so high and mighty.
She sat down on a wooden chair, and lit a cigarette of her own. Even if she'd been wealthy and part of a well earning family, and still possessed a decent amount of the money, she didn't care for taste. Her fags were a cheap, foul-smelling, and cough-inducing brand. But they were strong, and that's what mattered to Vivian.
She rubbed her face a little in the time she was sat. Her face always hurt from all the cuts and bruises she got. She'd put her sword in it's sheath, of course. Even she knew not to keep her weapon out in an ally's space. Her trenchcoat was buttoned to cover her constantly bloodied shirt, but the mafia members she'd hacked apart meant there was blood on it, too.
She waited for someone to talk.

Posted 21 July 2014 - 08:33 PM
Potipah was alerted by the scent of Vivian's cigarettes, it almost made her choke. She stubbed out her own cigarette, which was now finished anyway, and turned to the offender.
"Hey, Viv, would you mind using a window? Landlord would kill me if he smelled that, he's a grumpy bastard."
Posted 21 July 2014 - 08:49 PM
Vivian glanced up from her cigarette, and nodded.
"Sure"
She swatted the smoke, and opened a window to smoke out of that.
She looked down at the dingy city streets, far below the beautiful skyline.
She hated this place.
Posted 21 July 2014 - 09:00 PM
Potipah now took two pieces of pizza, one in her mouth, and trotted over to James. She handed him a slice, it was margherita. "Bet you're hungry." The mare was startled at his absence of hooves to pass things to, and glanced down at his handcuffs. "Let me get that key."
((I don't remember if Poti has the key or not, anyone know?))
Posted 21 July 2014 - 09:02 PM
((wait, when did the pizza arrive?))
Posted 21 July 2014 - 09:17 PM
((It flew in through the window for the sake of the story))
Posted 21 July 2014 - 09:34 PM
((mmkay))
Vivian ate her slice of pizza slowly. Every few seconds she looked around, as if majorly paranoid.
