Chapter Two

A blue unicorn sat behind a desk with a bored look on her face. She had her hand resting against her chin as her eyes were closed. The mare had a light grey fur with a white mane. She wore a dark blue dress that went down to her feet where she was wearing heels. She also had a pair of glasses on her face. The mare sat inside a building that said collection office on the outside in big white bold letters. The mare slowly closed fell deeper and deeper into slumber.

SLAM

The mare jumped up when she heard the doors slammed close. After adjusting her glasses to see who it was, she wished she didn't. Walking towards her with his boots making a soft thud with every step was Boba Fett. Sure she didn't have a bounty on her head but it still didn't stop the fact that she was completely terrified of somepony who wore strange armor and never showed his face. She tried to control her shaking as Boba stopped at her desk and just stared down at her while grabbing a bag that was attached to his hip. She was impressed she didn't flinch when the bag slammed onto the desk. "Tell Mr. Blackhoof that his stash is in that bag." Boba spoke.

The mare swallowed the lump in her throat as she grabbed the bag and sat it down beside her while also grabbing a bag what was making clink sounds. Boba raised an eyebrow underneath his helmet when he saw she pulled out two bags. "The first is the promised payment. The second is a bonus when Mr. Blackhoof heard there wasn't any violence."

'Of course he did.'

Boba grabbed the bags and attached them to his hip. "Any other contract?"

The mare was able to control her shaking now. "There are no other contracts right now."

Once the words left her mouth Boba was already on his way out the door. "Wait!"

Boba stopped and turned when he heard the mare shout. He watched her pull out a letter of some kind and held it out for him. Boba stared at her hand that was shaking slightly but none the less he took the letter and stared at it. He stared at it and saw it was addressed to him but had no name who sent it. He glanced over at the mare. "It was just here on my desk." The mare quickly explained when she saw Boba staring at her.

Boba simply turned and walked out the doors causing the mare to sigh in relief. "I don't get paid enough for this." The mare spoke as she sat back in her chair falling asleep again.


Boba stared at the letter as he walked through the town ignoring the nervous looks of the ponies walking through the town. The town that Boba stopped in was a place called Water Thirst. Kind of ironic since it was in a desert called San Palomino. Even after being here in this strange new land he would never get used to the ponies names of their towns. Breaking from his train of thought, he stared down at the strange new letter in his hand. The letter itself was black. Boba received many strange letters, but this one was new. Boba fired off his jetpack ignoring the sound of surprise by all the ponies as he flew up and landed on top of the building. Once he was sure no one was around he began to open the letter.

Greetings Boba Fett,

Boba raised an eyebrow but continued to read on.

I have a proposition for you. I selected you for a special hunt for a special prey. If you succeed, your reward will be in the amount of five million bits.

Boba eyes widened underneath his helmet. That could set him for life. This could also be a trap. Who would have such a bounty on them anyway.

You are to locate and capture any of these targets. Dead or alive.

Boba looked down at his targets. It one had a picture of his targets.

The first picture was a mare with a pink coat of fur that covered her entire body and a pink mane. Pinkie Pie, element bearer of laughter.

The second picture was a mare with a purple fur and a horn on top her head with a violet mane and tail, with a pink stripe running down them. Twilight Sparkle, element bearer of magic.

The third picture was a mare with an orange mane with a yellow mane and tail in a ponytail. She also wore a old Stetson. Applejack, element bearer of honesty.

The fourth picture was a mare with yellow fur and her mane and tail were a light pink colour. Fluttershy, element bearer of kindness.

The fifth mare had cyan fur with a rainbow mane and tail. Rainbow Dash, element bearer of loyalty.

Next mare had white fur with a horn and a deep purple mane and tail. Rarity, element bearer of generosity.

'Hmm. The elements of harmony. Now I see why they are paying a lot if they pay. Who's the last two?'

Boba pulled out the last two pictures to see who they were.

The mare in the picture had pink fur and her mane had purple, pink and blonde hues. On top of her head was a horn while behind her were wings. Princess Cadance, Ruler of the crystal empire.

The only stallion in all the pictures he saw had white fur with a blue mane and tail and had a horn on top of his head. Prince Shining Armor, ruler of the crystal empire. Still captain of the royal guard?

Boba stared at the pictures taking in their details. 'Just titles and names, nothing else. This person wants to test me......or watch me fail. In any case I accept. Where do I go to collect the bounty, though?' As the word left his mouth the letter busted into green flames with  directions. 'South of here huh.' Boba thought as he watched the green flames then shaped into three word before finally vanishing.

WE WILL KNOW.

Boba stared where the flames once were before glancing back down at his prey. All he had to do was bring one in dead or alive. 'Time to go be set for life.'
