Spike was sleeping in his bunk, Discord on the bottom bunk, Spike was on the top. Spike was in his usual pajama attire, camo pants and a grey sweatshirt. A little snot bubble was forming as Spike was sleeping, only to pop when he heard whistling from mortar fire. He jumped up, only to fall on the floor, waking Discord up.

"What's wrong?" Discord asked, getting ready, but then, a explosion went off outside, making Discord jump in the air, only to land on his feet.

"An attack." Spike said, grabbing his M16, and running outside. Discord following behind with his railgun in both hands. "Do you really have to bring that with you?" Spike asked, taking cover, bullets wizzed by the sandbag cover.

Discord smiled, went up to the cover, and aimed his minigun at the attackers, only to fire, sending limbs, body parts, heads, organs, along multiple things fly out of the enemy's defenses. He stopped firing, and smiled, only to duck when he heard the whistling of mortar fire. A few seconds later, a explosion was heard, Spike and Discord feeling the shockwaves of the blast hitting the ground.

A soldier flew infront of the cover they were behind, half of his body torn from the blast. Spike then looked to his left to see another Pegasus throw up, seeing his comrade in such a state. Spike only patted the man's back, seeing as another soldier went flying from another mortar hit.

"We're getting murdered out here." A soldier said, firing back with his M9. Spike fired his M16, popping out the magazine when he needed to reload, and loaded another in. He then cocked the gun, and fired again.

As soon as the attack started, it ended, no firing of guns, no mortars whistling, nothing. Spike sighed in relief as he got up, smiling as he saw the torn bodies of the enemy.

Discord looked at the handiwork, whistling in amazement. "Can you believe it? It's only three thirty in the morning, right after we got here, and we've already seen some action. Now this is what I call fun." Discord said, chuckling as he put his minigun right next to his bed.

"I just want to go to sleep. I'm tired, we just survived a sneak attack, the other people are trying to sleep. Right now, I just want to lay on my warm, comfy bed and sleep until sunlight hits my eyes." Spike said sleepily as he took off his boots.

A mare walked by, making Discord distracted from Spike for a moment. He smiled, but heard and saw the snapping of fingers infront of his face. "Huh? Spike, what do you want?" Discord asked, getting annoyed he's missing the eye candy.

"I said, we should get some sleep. We have three days until the mission starts, try to get some rest." Spike said, getting into his bed, and, after a little, was snoring.

Discord rolled his eyes, and fell asleep aswell. Tomorrow was going to be a busy day, both of them knew that. Spike was going to be surprised at what would happen when he gets up though, and won't the rest of the camp aswell.
