Aya Brea walked through the streets of New Yoke, nopony giving a damn because of Lance and Stopwatch. To be truthful, Aya wasn’t really paying attention to where she was going as she was reading a book of pony culture.

“Wow, and I thought Earth was fucked up…” Aya mumbled to herself, but her company didn’t like that. Posey elbowed the Human's leg, glaring.

“Watch-ch your l-language B-Brea.”

The two continued until turning into an alleyway. They walked their way to the other side, but say a grey Pegasus mare wearing a tight yellow suit, with red hoof shape gloves. Landed a few inches in front of Aya and Posey. “Ow, guess I should’ve watched where I was going huh?” the mare said as she pulled out a map from her saddlebag. “Now if I’m here and this is New Yoke city, then the free muffin store should be around here somewhere.”

“Weirdest… Week… Ever…” Aya said darkly.

Posey raised her eyebrow, “Uh, f-free muffin? D-do y-you need help?”

Derpy turned her attention away from her map as she looked behind her to see a pony and another human just like Lance. “Oh yes can. I’m looking for a store that is having a sale on free muffins. You wouldn’t happen to know where it is do you?”

The yellow Earth Pony smiled a bit, “Y-yeah I think s-so. L-let me just c-call my friend, sh-she’s into that k-kind of s-s-stuff.” She brought up her communicator and dialed up her friend.

“So… What’s your name oddly dressed mare?” Aya asked.

“My name is Derpy Hooves, and I’m pretty much a hero just for a hobby.”

“Dang, a hobby?” Aya wasn’t fazed by Derpy’s claim to be a hero. She probably was, but this was such a regular thing she shrugged it off, “I’m Aya Brea. And that’s Posey. We’re… A special kind of Police Force.”

“Like a secret police force?”

“I guess… I can’t give you details because I’m only allowed to show real heroes, no offence, I just haven’t heard of you.” Aya said.

“Aw! But I wanna know.” Derpy wined as she gave Aya an adorable pouty look.

“Maybe if I see your powers I can tell ya,” Aya said, mentally cringing at her adorableness.

“Alright I’ll-.” Derpy was about to show Aya one of her powers, that is until she felt herself about to sneeze. The moment she did, she turned around let it loose at an abandoned building. Causing it to be sent off flying into space. “Oops. Hope no ponies were living in there?”

Aya and Posey watched it go flying, jaws hanging. Aya spoke without looking towards Derpy, “We’re a special task force formed to deal with mutated ponies and animals. We also arrest supervillains… Our squads name is M.I.S.T., which stands for Mitochondrial Investigation and Suppression Team…”

“That’s kinda confusing...I’ll just go with super secret police force.”

“Yeah… Okay. Try superhero police force.” Aya said, “Posey… Where’s the muffin store?”

Posey sighed, “I-it’s about… three b-blocks that way,” She pointed left of the alley, “And th-then make a r-right.”

“Want us to take you there? Like an armed escort?” Aya smirked.

“But I’m not armed.” Posey tried, but was ignored.

“Don’t worry, I’ll keep you two safe while we head over to the store.” Derpy said, as she trotted around them in excitement. Aya giggled at the mares excitement, but followed along. Her and Posey took the lead, but if Derpy wanted she could go first. “Finally a place that sells free muffins, if only it was in Maretropolis next to Lance’s place.”

“Oh, you know my nephew!” Aya said, “I should have known…”

“Wait, nephew? Lance never told me he had an aunt.”

“I’d say I’m hurt, but… He’s got a lot on his plate. Too many family members to keep track of.” Aya opened the door to the muffin shop, “Ladies first.”

“Yay! Free muffins here I come!” Derpy said as she entered into the store.

“How does this place stay in business?” Posey asked.

“Good question… Maybe they sell more than muffins they actually sell.” Aya suggested.

“Who cares, I finally found a place where I don’t need to make muffins at home.”

“I could send some to you if you want.” Aya implemented, “It wouldn’t be a hassle. I’ve got a fast delivery mare, she’ll get them to you in under five minutes.”

“I don’t mind getting them myself, plus it won’t take me long to get here and back.” Derpy said as she trotted over to the lane where they had free muffins. Only for her eyes to widen when she saw a group of ponies destroying the aisle with the muffins in it. “M-Muffin?”

Aya pulled dual pistols out and aimed at the ponies, “Freeze!”

“Freeze yourself you hairless ape!” Yelled a male unicorn, as he fired at Aya only for one of the unicorn beam to shoot pass her head.

“No one calls me an ape!” Aya took cover and began to open fire. Posey slammed her hoof into the ground, and vines with thorns crawled out of the ground and blocked their exit.

“Crap, take cover boys!” The Earth pony yelled as he and his friends ran behind the nicely stacked cans to return fire upon Aya.

Derpy didn’t move at all from where Aya stood seconds ago. All she did was trot over to the destroyed muffins. “M-Muffins?” she whimpered, as she pulled up the remains of a pack of muffins.

“Crap! Hey assholes, here’s some real firepower!” Aya pulled a submachine gun out of her inventory, “I’ll give ya to the count of five! One...!” before Aya could say anything else, Derpy stood up on her hind hooves and began to walk towards the thugs.

“Hope she’s bulletproof…” Aya whispered to herself, preparing to cover Derpy if she wasn’t. Posey had plants come out of the ground and circle her, thinking the same thing.

“Hey, isn’t that the wife of the Maretropolis detective?” asked a pegasus.

“If it is, then capture her. We can get a lot of money if we take her in a ransom her for money.” The Earth pony said as he ordered two of his friends to capture her. Only for them to get slammed onto the ground. “W-What the?!”

“Alright you jerkish ponies! You barged into this store, decided to wreck the place, and destroy all the muffins during this stores once a year free muffin sale!”

“Oh, once a year, now it makes sense…” Aya mumbled to herself.

“Now you’re going to pay for hurting the poor innocent muffins.” Derpy said as she appeared behind one of them, and bucked out of the store.

“S-Shoot that bitch you idiot.” Just as the pegasus was about to shoot Derpy, she immediately appeared in front of him. “Ho-.” before he could finish that statement, Derpy delivered a punch to his face. Sending flying pass Aya, and into the back of the store. Derpy then turned her attention at the two remaining thugs as she slowly walked towards them.

“The hell with this, I’m outta here!” The unicorn said as he tried to run away. Only for the mare to punch the air, and deliver a vacuum of air into the fleeing pony’s spine. Sending him flying to a wall. Derpy turned her attention at the last thug who was trying to run out the window. The mare simply stomped her hoof as a piece of earth appeared from below and hit him below the belt. Causing him to fall over in pain.

Aya lowered her machine gun, “Dang girl! You got it on!” She laughed, “I feel like a child compared to you!”

“*Sniff* But the muffins.” Derpy said as tear began to run down her face. “I couldn’t save the muffin!”

Aya knelt down next to Derpy and placed a hand on her back, “Hey, I got a friend who knows how to bake, and she loves making ponies happy. I bet you’ll love her. She can make you a free batch of muffins in no time!”

“*Sniff* R-Really?”

“Hey, would I lie to a fellow superhero? I’ll have her pick us up, she’ll make you muffins, and we’ll all be happy.”

“Yay!” cheered Derpy as she tackled Aya to the ground in excitement.

Aya giggled as Posey called up Surprise. Once Derpy calmed down enough, she realized she was in an underground shelter of some sort.

A white Pegasus appeared in Derpy’s face and gave her a hug, “Hi! I’m Surprise! I’ll be your chief today! What kinds of muffins would ya like!?”

“Blueberry muffins please!”

And with that, Surprise blinked away.

Two pink ponies trotted in, one having a white mane and the other with a blue one.

“Confound it! We were binge watching Jurassic Park!” The blue maned Pegasus growled. “What is it?”

“Superhero crisis.” Aya stated simpley.

“Hi!” Derpy said as she waved a hoof at the blue maned pegasus. “Who are you if you don’t mind me asking?”

“Firefly Dash,” The blue maned Pegasus said, “And this is Twilight Mist.” She pointed to the white maned Unicorn.

“It’s nice to meet you.” Mist said.

“Huh, you guys kinda look like Twilight and her friends, but different.”

“Funny considering we’re their descendants. Great grandchildren.” Twilight said. “Surprise is Pinkie’s, Posey is Fluttershy’s, Firefly is Rainbow’s, etc, etc.”

“....Confusing, but I think I get what you’re saying.”

“Grand kids. Not that hard.” Firefly said, “Anyways, it’s a secret, no telling.”

“Don’t worry I won’t tell anypony you secret.”

“Now that you know about us, tell us about yourself.”

“My name is Derpy Hooves, and I’m pretty much a hero just because it’s a hobby of mine.” Derpy said bluntly.

The two gave the mare a raised eyebrow, “A hobby…” Twilight repeated, “You… Just do it. Because it’s a hobby… We were almost forced to do it…”

“How so?”

“Long story short we messed up our parents births, meaning we were never born. We didn’t want to do another mess up, so we quite the hero gig. Aya walked into our lives, and Lance wanted to make us a Power Ponies team in New Yoke.” Twilight said, trying her hardest to make sense to Derpy. “I decided he wasn’t going to leave us alone, so… We got back in.”

“So you quit being heroes, only later to become heroes again?”

Twilight sighed, “Yes… Now, is there anything I can help you with for your visit?”

“Well I was trying to get some free muffins that were on sale, but the muffins got destroyed.” Derpy said, pouting adorably as she tipped a small rock over. “*Sniff* Poor muffins, they didn’t deserved to get smashed on like that.”

Twilight resisted the urge to roll her eyes, “Look, maybe Surprise can bake you some more if she hasn’t already.”

“She is already.” Aya added.

“There, everything’s going to be fine. If there anything else we can do?”

“Well I am looking for my daughter Dinky, have you seen here?”

The three mares and human tapped their chins, until Firefly said. “No, sorry, we’ve only been active for a couple days.”

“If we do, we’ll tell you.” Aya said.

“Okay thanks. So what happens now?”

“Well, Surprise is baking you muffins… I don’t know. Explore the base, just don’t go into the lab, we’ve got special samples that are really fragile.” Twilight Mist stated. “Oh, where’s Banana Fluff?”

“AJ took her to get some exercise.” Firefly responded.

“This place has a training room?” Derpy asked. “You must be really rich if you have one.”

Firefly laughed, “Na! We don’t have any bits other than for trivial stuff like food, medicine, entertainment, and other stuff. About the only cool stuff we do have is a computer, shower room, and medical bay… Maybe a small armory.”

“Oh, well I’m sure you get enough bits to get more stuff for your secret base.”

Mist chuckled, “We’ll see. We’re still in a trial faze.”

“Wait, is it like a test that you’re being graded on?”

“Yes, and if we pass, we’ll be paid. If we fail, everything that we own with be taken. We need to clean up the streets a bit to pass.” Mist stated.

“Isn’t that kinda harsh?”

“That’s the deal. If we fail, we’re illegal superheroes and all of our stuff can help them. We’ve got three tests, and passing them is on our highest priority. That’s why I don’t want you going into the lab, our first test is the samples.”

“Sh! She’s got e-enough to w-worry about!” Posey said.

“Who told you that you have to do the test?” Derpy asked.

“The commissioner. She… Has trust problems…” Firefly said, “This city is one of the hottest crime spots, so I’ll give her a slide for her rudeness.”

“Who’s the commissioner?”

“Chief of police Holly Dash. In charge of the NYPD-New Yoke Police Department-, so she’s pretty high.” Surprise replied, trotting out with a bushel of blueberry muffins.

“Yay! Muffins!” Derpy yelled as she started to devour the plate with the muffins on it.

Surprise giggled as she blinked herself onto a couch and sat. “You’ve got a big appetite, don’t you?” The other M.I.S.T. members stared at her. “What?”

“Finally, my quest for muffins is complete. Now for my second quest.”

Aya nodded her head, “Yeah, good luck with that. I wish you the best.”

“Thanks.” Derpy said as she finished eat. “Now I must be off.” she said as she took a lift off position. “Don’t worry Dinky, Mama’s comin to find you!” Like a rocket taking off, Derpy bolted out of M.I.S.T’s secret base. Leaving a giant hole in the ceiling of it.

Looking outside, Aya smiled. “So we’re in a hill next to New Yoke! Now I get it!”

The others rolled their eyes, and Twilight Mist just stared at the hole, tearing up. “I just wanted peace…”

Aya watched Derpy fade into the distance, a small smile on her lips, “Safe travels…”
