Equestria Special Forces

Canterlot, Equestrian Military living quarters
November 30th, 12:00
“Who would’ve thought the food would taste good.” I said just saying how usually military food is mostly rations and not elegant food.
"Oh they have food all over Equestria, the princess thinks if the soldiers have better food they would have better morale.” Airrick said “Heck they even had children’s food here.”
“Children’s?” Night asked with confusion. Airrick didn’t say anything for while, but we kept following him until I said something
“Airrick?” I asked Airrick just to make him continue.
“Yeah, Red?”
“Aren’t you going to say something?” I wasn’t sure if I asked this question, but having something for children in a place where you become soldiers is just something.
“Oh yeah, did I ever mention I lived here almost my entire life?”
“No you didn’t” I responded
“Care to tell us?” Gun asked as he started to lean against to wall, I guess it was story time.
“I… I shouldn’t, look I don’t want to talk about it, the commander didn’t assign me to give stories to you guys. Just… forget about it.” Airrick proceeded walking to our next. I looked at Night and ave brought this up. She asked me
“Maybe I should keep quiet at most situations.”
“No, don’t, I would’ve said the same.” I said, “Night, I think we should just leave Airrick alone… for now.”
“Red, I don’t think-“
“So what now?” I interrupted Night and asked Airrick.
“The living quarters,” The living quarters its own area outside the barracks luckily for us we get the special treatment.
“C’mon I show you guys ours.” Right when Airrick goes in the area, but we were stopped by a voice from a distance.
“Airrick!” the voice came from behind and it was Sitrep calling us.
“What is it Sitrep?” Airrick responded
“The commander needs all of you in briefing right now.” So we started heading for the briefing, right just I thought I can finally get some rest. NightSound turned to me and asked
“Red?”
“Yes, Night?”
“Have you ever had any combat experience?”
“Well my dad showed me how to use a gun.”
“Your going to need to know more than how to use a gun.” GunShow said, I was a bit worried when Gun said that, I don’t think I would ever win a fight with anything. Well except if I hold a gun against someone without one I have a chance. It could be like mugging some defenceless person and I would be like “Hey gimme all your money.” Oooh I got some imagination

Canterlot, Equestrian Military Briefing
November 30th, 12:10
We entered the briefing room, just like I thought it would look like. Monitors, conference desk, big chairs, maps you name everything you see in the movies.
“So this is what the briefing looks like.” Night said
“Looks like it’s from the movies.” I said to Night, she giggled and smiled at me
“It’s like the ones in children’s shows.”
“Well that’s how I got my design of the place.” Sitrep said and smiled at us. “Commander Cyro they’re here.”
Uncle Cyro came in from the far end of the room
“All right, looks like our first mission happens to be earlier than expected.” Uncle Cyro said as he walked him. “We didn’t even get a chance to get some of you training and know the equipment here so let’s make this quick.”
He slammed his hoof on a button on the table. Photos of nameless terrorists groups appeared on the monitor. Nameless, creative name I know a terrorist group who somehow think the princess is a hoax and think the sun and moon are raised by themselves. It’s crazy I know. Not sure why being terrorists would show a message.
“You’re all familiar?” Uncle said and everyone nodded. “Good, we know that as we’re gonna call them Nameless. We know that they have been doing some dealing with certain weapons and they’re getting the shipment through air.”
The monitor changed to some sort of diagram of a bomb, looked big so I assume that’s what Nameless is going for.
“This right here is a bomb.” Uncle continued. I looked at Airrick rolling his eyes since it’s pretty obvious. The bomb didn’t look so big, but like they say size matters, or the other way around I don’t know… I hate metaphors.
“But this is just any bomb…”
“What? Is the bomb some sort of nuke that will destroy the whole planet?” I interrupted my uncle and he looked at me for while, not saying a word. It kind of creeped me out.
“No, it’s not a nuke, it’s an EMP.”
Never gonna try that again
“An EMP? What would they want with that?” Gun Asked
“Not sure. That’s why we’re hijacking their plane to find out. Airrick get the plane ready. The rest of you get suited up cause we’re going now.”
So we all got our equipment from the lockers with our names on in the armory and I looked at GunShow he had all kinds of weapons in a bag, Night had 2 sheathed swords, I just had the basic stuff. We headed out to the hanger where Airrick and Uncle Cyro were waiting. We all had weapons and body armour, but the strange thing was that we also had parachutes. In my mind I was expecting to hijack the plane ON land.
“All right you guys are ready, let’s get moving.” Uncle Cyro said as we started going into the plane, I noticed that Sitrep wasn’t around.
“Where’s Sitrep?” I asked my uncle
“He’s not going to come with us, he’s staying at HQ to keep surveillence.”
“Living up to his name?”
My uncle laughed
“You can say that.” Uncle patted on the back as we went in the plane and it was pretty big, monitors, turrets, weapons. Now I’m not a plane guy but this looks dope. Dope? Where did I hear that word before… nevermind about that. Airrick put on his headset
“Sitrep permission to lift off… Hanger doors now opening… Engines starting up.”
The plane’s engines were quiet then we turned to face the opening doors, everyone started to sit on the seats and their seatbelts on.
“Alright everyone this is going to be fast and smooth.” Airrick said with a grin on his face.
“How can this plane move fast with all this weight?” Gunshow said with no faith at all with this plane, guess he dislikes them.
“this is the best Equestria has to offer; the tech, guns, armour, basiclly anything.” Airrick said
“So are we going to be moving or what?” I said curiously if we’re going to make any progress.
“Red we’re already here.” My uncle said, I looked out the pilot’s window and saw that we were still flying.
“But we’re still flying.” I said, suddenly the doors of the plane open and wind was blowing everywhere
“You sure you want to keep your hat on Red?” my uncle shouted
“Wait, WHAT?” I shouted, freaking out about what was going to happen.
“Alright everypony…”
“And griffin” Airrick corrected
“Right… Nameless has the EMP on a plane directly below us, so we’re gonna hijack it, take the EMP, fall again and Airrick will catch us. That’s it. Questions?” Uncle said, I was about to say something but…
“Alright, LET’S DO THIS!” Uncle jumped, then GunShow.
“I don’t think I can do th-“
“Oh cmon.” Night grabbed me and flew down to the plane. Guns were firing when we got down on the plane. Nameless’s pegasuses were attacking us, good thing for us uncle has magic sheilds.
“It’s showtime.” Gunshow’s bag launched his minigun that landed really hard and caused the plane to shake. And I fell off to the wing of the plane hanging on to the rim
“What the- Oh you gotta be kidding me!” Night got her swords out gutting some Nameless’s and she flew to me and grabbed me to Cyro putting up shields on all of us.
“Red! Get this roof open!” Uncle shouted, I grabbed my bag which had some C4 in it. I was setting the timer for 5 seconds and right when I was finished, I was pushed.
“Get off me!” I yelled at the Nameless good thing I shot him with my pistol and he landed on the wielding tools to cut the roof open. The plane was shaking so we had to hurry.
“Red you’re with me. Gun and Night keep the fight up here, make sure don’t cause this plane to crash!” Uncle commanded while me and him got in the plane. The EMP was close. we ran and uncle cryo was keeping the Nameless away, I found the EMP, it was huge in person and I think it was part of the plane, which is a really stupid idea to keep something that disables electronics in a plane that have that sort of thing, but again why should I question logic here.
“Uncle I think we need to change plans here, suddenly another enemy came jumping at me, but I shot him before he could.
“Getting used to this.” Talking to myself, “Uncle!” I told uncle while he was fighting hoof-to-hoof with a Nameless and he snapped his neck.
“Yeah I got it, Team I’m gonna fly this plane we need to get this to base without trying to destroy it.” Uncle said in his earpiece.
“Commander I am having a hard time getting to you guys, they seem to have some anti air.” Airrick said in a relaxed tone.
“Red we’re taking the AA off. Know where it is?” Uncle asked me while I tried to remember the locations of a plane is.
“Anti-air, turrets, controlled, pilot. Pilot!” I started dashing through shooting nameless guards, while Uncle Cyro was watching my 6. 6, hey im speaking military talk. Anyway, I was really getting the hang with aiming a gun on the go. We entered the pilot’s room or was it called cockpit, meh doesn’t matter. The pilot was still flying the plane in his seat, Uncle grabbed both his arms and yanked them behind the chair.
“Red, Disable them.” Uncle commanded me while he killed the pilot. I turned off the turrets and the shooting stopped, well except for outside where I hear explosions and I'm guessing that’s Gun.
“I'm piloting this thing, get to the EMP and keep it away from ‘em,” Uncle said. I ran out the door of the room and encountered a bunch of Nameless pointing their guns at me.
“Hold it right there,” the nameless said.
“OK.” As I kept my gun in the air, I saw Night sneaking up behind them giving me a signal by covering her eyes, I had to distract them.
“Put your gun down,” the nameless shouted.
“But you told me to hold it right there, and I’m holding it.”
“What? Well forget about that put it down!”
“Alright.” I put down my gun then threw a flashbang making them blind. Night started slicing and I got my gun back and shot all of them.
“That was awesome! we should do something like that again,” I said to Night.
“Well we might do this stuff all the time. C’mon let’s get to that EMP.” We went to the room with the EMP and it was filled with Nameless shooting at us. We dived into cover.
“Damn this plane is big,” I shouted.
“Hey! Show’s up here!” GunShow shouted. He spun his minigun and wiped out all the Nameless in the room.
“He sure is a pony with one-liners,” I said.
“Watch it in there, we don’t want the plane to crash,” my uncle said. Then suddenly the plane started to shake like crazy “Damn! the wing of the ship is breaking. NightSound get Reddy to the wing and see if you guys can get Airrick’s support on this.” Night and I ran to the top of the plane and grabbed the support to the plane.
“Commander, looks like they called for some reinforcement, a couple of fighters are coming for you,” Sitrep said from the HQ. “I can use ReddyTech’s hacker tool to control the enemies’ planes but he has to make the connection or GunShow can just shoot them down, but the risk of the plane is…“
“Let’s do both,” Uncle Cyro interupted. It seemed like he didn’t care for the plane, he could just want some fun. “Red you have the hacker in the bag, Airrick you got the support on?”
“You should get the plane steady now,” Airrick reminded me. Other planes started coming towards us, I opened my bag and found the hacker tool. It looked strangely like a taser gun. I aimed at one of the planes and shot it.
“Good shot Red! I have full control on the hacked plane, note that if you shoot again I lose control from the previous one,” Sitrep said. He really started to remind me of those video game instructors that tell you everything you need to do in a tutorial, wait isn’t that what instructors do?
“Good thing they didn’t send too many,” I said.
“You want more? Well here comes hundreds,” Airrick responded and he wasn’t kidding. Literally hundreds of planes came in and started gunning us down. Uncle Cyro’s sheilds couldn’t hold much longer. Oh yeah did I mention that my uncle puts magic sheild barrirers on the team and the plane. I mean I’ve been shot many times but the sheilds are that good, but not against thousands of bullets or explosions.
“They’re desperate for this thing aren’t they!” Night said as she taken down a plane.
“Don’t worry we’re almost there,” Airrick said in a relaxed way. I tried to think of a quicker way to take those planes down, but as I was planning, we already reached our destination. Since they’re trespassing in our territory we’re allowed to use heavy force. Tons of rockets came out right from the base at the enemy planes.
“That was easy,” I said.
“Of course it was, don’t want it to be repetitive,” Uncle said.

So we landed in the hanger, we escorted the EMP out to the tech lab and Uncle Cyro told me to go to the tech lab to check the bomb.

Canterlot, Equestrian Military Hanger
November 30th, 18:55 (Commander Cyro)
I was quite impressed with Reddy back there, I wasn’t even sure if it was his first time doing this sort of thing. I guess he’s just like his father then. For the others, I realised that NightSound and Red make a really good team. I know they have a love story going on.
“Red, I want you to go with the other techs, you might get to figure out how to use the EMP,” I said to red.
“Wait! why me?... Oh yeah! That means I get to be in the tech lab.” Red paused for a moment. A big smile of excitement came across his face as he ran off with the escort.
“What a crazy kid… Alright team we’re gonna have a meeting after you guys get prepared for the next phase” I ordered the team. “We have to be ready for the next phase which is the last one. Killing of the leader.”
While the others were getting prepared, I had to think of a plan of how we were going to take him out. I went to the briefing room to setup.
“Great kid you got there, commander.” Sitrep came in the room
“He’s not my kid, Sitrep. That’s my brother’s.”
“Well he’s a lot like your brother then.”
“You two going to get together then,” I joked, since my brother was best friends with Sitrep, he misses him as much as I do. I thought he would go emotional about it right now.
“Ah c’mon Cyro, even though Red is your nephew, he starts to remind me of the old days.”
Sitrep was talking about the times when I had my old team, I was the Sarge, my brother was the engineer and Sitrep was still at HQ giving directions. I have no idea what happened to the rest of the team, I only know that losing somepony made the team break.
“I guess so, that’s the whole point of this team,” I said to Sitrep. Then GunShow decided to come in.
“Hope I’m interrupting something touching.” GunShow sniggered.
“Just giving Sitrep some details,” I replied.
“Commander,” Sitrep saluted and went back to his station.
“You got here pretty quickly Gun.” I turned to Gun.
“Ever seen my police reports?” Gun was talking about his other successful missions, heists, robberies and even beating someone for vandalising. I wonder who’s more extreme, me or him.
“Yes I have, but what does that have to do with you getting here so quickly,”
“Check the time lapsed,” Gun said. He then proceeded to take a seat; he didn’t seem to want to have a conversation anymore. Sometimes I wonder why I have him on my team; he’s more of a lone wolf than a team player. The reason why GunShow was here and in the team was not because he decided to quit his previous job, it’s because he’s a good soldier, a risk taker and fearless. I wonder where the others were when this was happening.

Canterlot, Equestria Military Engineering Lab
November 30th, 19:10 (ReddyTech)

The Tech lab is amazing; I have never seen as many gadgets in my life. The other tech guys were doing some other stuff, I don’t know what it was, but I had to focus on my work
“Something is a bit strange about this EMP,” I said to myself. I was looking at the bomb, but I wasn’t sure it was a bomb.
“Hey Reddy,” NightSound came in; she seemed to be happy to see me.
“Oh hey Night, what’s going on?”
“I just wanted to say hi,” Night said in a shy tone.
I put the EMP aside on the workbench. “Want to catch up? Is that why?”
“Red…I wanted to know what’s going on… you know?”
“I guess so, I mean we didn’t really catch up at the train, I mean with the sword and my face and Gun…”
“Yes, so how are you Red?” Night asked as she interrupted me.
I can’t blame her I tend to ramble on. “I’ve been fine Night, seeing my uncle again after these years, new life and hey I get to see you again, how bout you Night?”
“I’m fine too, I became a Wonderbolt, one of the best flyers in Equestria and now I’m here as an assassin somehow,” Night said in a confident manner. Strange, I have never seen Night as confident before.
“Night. You’re an athlete, but that cutie mark means that…”
“I’m a violent pony aren’t I,” Night interrupted me then paused and she started to frown. I didn’t know how to answer that. Night and I have been friends since kindergarten up until to university. She was the quiet one in the class and I still think I was her only friend.
“Why is your talent that sword then?" I asked, she was quiet for a short moment,
"My mother was amazing with swords, she taught me how to use it, but I mainly use it to relieve stress,"
"How do you... you know relieve stress?"
"I meditate,"
"Oh tha-"
"Then I let my rage on other ponies," She interrupted me
"And now I know more about you every time we talk," I said, she giggled at the comment,
"I like how you always somehow manage to change the mood at times,"
“I guess I’m becoming my dad then,”
“You still miss him?” Night asked, I sighed and turned to the table with the EMP
“Night, I still feel uneasy,” I continued to work on the EMP and try not to think of it
“What do you mean?” Night still wanted to know the story
“I said the wrong thing at the wrong time,” I said to Night, she had a worried look on her face, she still wants to know.
“But I’m going to leave this a cliff-hanger, tune in next time to know what the hay happened, in the next part of Equestria Special Forces.”
“Reddy, what are you saying?”
