retaking ponyville

Battlefield equestria: retaking ponyville

Pov: rainbow dash

As we made our way out of sweet apple acres, I and the rest of the squad stopped to admire the view. The once lively town of ponyville was now a quiet and seemingly lifeless wasteland. Lots of houses and buildings were burned down or partially destroyed.

I heard Luna's voice come through the radio, "alright echo, you have one job, retake ponyville from the gryphons.""I want you to start with twilight's tree house

"Affirmative" replied hornet. " alright, Dash, AJ and Blaze you go attack the house, twilight you keep a lookout, and ill cover you three attacking.

We continued into the town until the tree house was in sight, hornet laid down in some shrubs, twilight sat near him keeping watch.

"Alright guys, let's go" I said. We advanced through cover until we got within 20 feet of the house. Before we got any closer, i spotted a gryphon looking out a window.

"Shit guys, blaze yelled, get to cover" we ran and dived behind some market stands.

"Hey, hornet think you can take him out?" asked AJ. I kept my eye on the window; I heard a gunshot and the gryphon's head exploded. "Nice fucking shot" AJ replied.

We advanced toward the tree house; we got to one of the bottom floor windows. We looked in and saw four gryphon soldiers sitting around a TV.

"Alright guys," I said.  1.....2.....3.... fire!

The sound of our guns rang in the air; the soldiers never knew what hit them. We climbed through the window, we looked at the mess we created, one gryphon was missing a head, one had a wing lying on the floor, and the other was ripped open.

A gryphon appeared from the stairs holding a magnum, "shit guys look out" I managed to yell before the gryphon starting shooting. I heard blaze yell in pain before he fell onto the ground. Before he could get another shot off I put a bullet between his eyes. I watched as his body rolled down the stairs.

"DASH" AJ yelled to me, "get your ass over here" I ran over and looked down at blaze, there was a large open wound in his chest, and blood was leaking onto the wooden floor. We heard multiple gunshots ring into the air.

"Guys, you got tangos coming from the upstairs!" we heard hornet say over t he radio, followed by another gunshot.

Me and AJ pulled blaze into a corner and pulled a table in front of us, the gryphon's peered their heads over the railing. We opened fire on them. I took down one of them before they ducked for cover. We heard some of them coming down the stairs, AJ pulled her shotgun out and fired at them. One of the gryphons's got hit and his midsection got torn apart.

We heard a sniper gunshot in the distance, the glass above our heads shattered into pieces, a gryphon on our right fell to the ground screeching in pain.

"Hey, watch it asshole!" I yelled at hornet.

"Sorry, he was sneaking up on you." He replied.

I managed to gun down another one, "Just three left" I managed to yell at AJ. One of them flew in the air to try to get to the other side of the room, but he was no match for AJ's shotgun. She fired and he fell to the ground and cracked the wooden floor, sending blood everywhere. One peeked out for a second, which was one to long, a sniper bullet went straight threw his head. "Another spectacular shot!" I said congratulating him. As his body slumped onto the ground the gunshots stopped. "The hell is the last guy" I thought to myself. I heard AJ's shotgun fire, and a body slammed into the ground in front of us. "Nice shot AJ" I said

"Thanks dash" she replied.

Right after she finished hornet and twilight burst through the door.

"You two okay?" hornet asked in a worried tone.

"I and AJ are fine, but I don't know about blaze." I replied. I looked at the corner where he laid, his yellow coat faded to orange, blood soaked the floor around him, and he was breathing heavily and slowly.

"Twilight start working on blaze right away" hornet commanded. "You two, hornet pointed at us, keep lookout."  Me and aj both nodded and went to the windows and looked out. We heard hornet making his way upstairs. I took this time to reload and resupply myself.

I looked back at blaze, his breathing returned to normal, and he stopped bleeding. I really hope he's going to be okay I thought to myself.

I lazily sat down on the floor and closed my eyes, I wanted to too fall asleep so badly. I started to drift off; I was about to fall asleep when I heard the sound of footsteps and a sound I hated, a helicopter.

"Shit guys we got company" AJ yelled, I watched as she pulled out some claymores and laid them on the ground. "Get back rainbow, you don't want to get blown up by them."

"They're here guys!" hornet yelled from upstairs. Me and AJ ran to the back and pulled up anything we could use as cover. Twilight put blaze with us then settled at the top of the stairs.

The chopper immediately started firing at us. It light the whole house up with machine gun fire, a few gryphon's entered through the doorway, the claymore went off straight away, blasting away the gryphon's, along with their body parts. Others started entering through; we were able to easily mow them down. They chopper backed up and aimed its guns at the doorway.

"Don't worry guys, I heard hornet yell, I got this shit!" the choppers guns started to spin only to be interrupted by a sniper shot through the window, the glass cracked the pilots corpse reared back and the slumped over and the screen filled with blood.

"Fucking beautiful!"

"Fan-fucking-tastic shot!"

"Amazing shot!"

I AJ and even twilight said almost spontaneously.

But the victory was short lived, the chopper hovered for a second, then started drifting words the house at a fast rate,

"oh shit...."

The chopper slammed into the tree house and exploded violently, the tree house immediately began burning.

Luna's voice played through our radio, "RETREAT, ABANDON MISSION"

"Come on guys through the back exit" twilight yelled to us. I continued to fire at the door before I ran out of ammo, I saw hornet slide down the stairs, he picked up blaze and came with us. We ran out of the burning house and fled into the forest.

We ran and flew for miles. We finally sat down and took a breather, I sat against a tree, we took out the few supplies we had left, and we put down a few sleeping bags and some food and water. I didn't notice it night already. I slipped into a sleeping bag.

"I'll take first watch" AJ said.

I laid my head down and got comfortable and in no time I was fast asleep.

shot down

Shot down

Pov: rainbow dash

I laid my head down and got comfortable and in to time I was fast asleep.

I heard chopper very close to us, and then I felt a hoof nudge me in the side.

"Hey get up asshole, our rides almost here." I looked up and saw hornet standing above me.

"Give me five more minutes" I said sleepily. This time I felt his hoof smash me in the ribs, it believe me it hurt. "Alright fine!"

I went to pack up my sleeping bag and any food that I haven't eaten yet. In to time the chopper landed near us and we all got in. a royal guard peeked out and said,

"Were taking you guys back to canterlot, Luna wants to talk to you guys"

The chopper lifted into the air and we started to fly north. I looked out the cabin door; I watched the endless sea of trees go by. And I started to let my mind wander.

"Something bothering you rainbow?" I looked over and saw blaze looking at me worryingly. Glad to see he's okay. I thought to myself.

"Hmm oh, no I'm fine...." I can sometimes be a worse liar than aj. He lifted his eyebrow quizzically. Then shrugged and looked away.

I looked out the door again only to see rolling plains.

Gryphon Pov:

A chopper went flying over, with the royal guard logo on the side.

"Pony helicopter flying overhead."

"Take em down" I pulled the javelin missile launcher, I aimed it at the helicopter.

"Locking on." I fired the missile, the rocket sailed through the air, and it curved in the air, and connected with the chopper and exploded. The helicopter immediately starting diving toward the ground.

Rainbow dash POV:

I was in what felt like a trance, only to be interrupted by a menacing, beep beep beep beep!

"Shit were locked onto!" one of the pilots yelled. I looked out the window and saw a large metal object followed by a trail of smoker trailing right behind the helicopter.

"BRACE F-" he was interrupted by a loud explosion, it rocked the helicopters tail of, letting it fall into the abyss below us. My cabin door flew off, and started to suck me out of the helicopter. I started to lose my grip, and started to slip. I tried to fight but the air won, I was about to fall out when out of panic I looked for someone, hornet was closest.

"HORNET HELP!" he whipped around as fast as I've ever seen and grabbed my front leg and pulled me in."Thanks, I owe you one."

The helicopter started to get front heavy, we started to head straight for the mountain at an alarming rate.

"SHIT, HOLD ON!" the pilot yelled. The side of the chopper smacked into the mountain, we were all thrown into the left side of the helicopter. A sharp pain erupted in my back. And then we started rolling down the mountain. We continued being thrown around like ragdolls until we rolled into a cornfield and stopped. But the abrupt end caused me to slam my head into the side and fall unconscious.

"I woke up lying facing the morning sky, my back and head were in horrible pain, and my vision was blurred.

"Hey, she's waking up!" it sounded like applejack's voice. I looked up and blood immediately started washing down over me.

Twilight pulled out some bandages and put them around my head. "Alright well it looks like the pilots are dead and were stuck here, so we need to get moving." Blaze said. I picked up a pistol from one of the pilots corpses.

I looked at the group; most of us were missing our signature weapons. Applejack was missing her shotgun, blaze lost his rifle a long time ago, twilight still had her rifle, and hornet was missing his sniper and was just holding a knife.

"Well let's move before the search parties get here." I said.

We made our way down a dirt path; we got near a stone bridge. Then we heard vehicles driving down the road.

"Get to cover!" hornet shouted to us. We all darted into nearby bushes until the convoy passed. We hopped out and continued down the path. We spotted some buildings and ran to them. We got into the building.

"Scout the building, twilight said, make sure were not alone here." I creped around the building. I turned around the corner and walked right into a gryphon. He pointed his gun right at me, I quickly pulled out my pistol and shot. I nailed him right in the head, blood splattered on to me and the walls, and he fell to the ground. I heard footsteps running toward me; I flew to the top of the ceiling and hid in the corner. I saw flashlights; multiple gryphons walked in and examined the body. I heard someone behind them, I looked at the doorway and twilight walked in. she raised her gun and fired. Bullets flew through the air, the gryphons one by one fell to the ground in bloody messes. I flew down next to twilight; she raised her gun and pointed it straight at me.

"Oh, it you rainbow" said twilight.

"Hey guys come up here!" it sounded like AJ. We ran upstairs stopped and the top floor, in front of us laid an arsenal of weapons.

"Awesome..."

"They need to stop handing us toys to play with!"

I picked up what appeared to be a modified ak-47, picked up a bunch of ammo and loaded it. I looked over at the group, AJ picked up a pump shotgun, twilight picked up some grenades, and hornet picked up a smg and a sniper, and blaze pulled out a LMG.

"Let's do this shit!" I shouted to the group. We took the journey downstairs and busted out the door. We started to run behind the buildings, we walked into a greenhouse and saw 2 gryphons standing in there.

"Ahh shit!" blaze yelled. The gryphons yelled and started firing, blaze pointed his LMG and fired, he unloaded about 50 bullets into them, leaving them in pieces. After his gunfire died down we ran out of the greenhouse and into a storage area. We heard gryphons and of all things dogs, I hate dogs. We ducked behind sand bags and started firing. One of the dogs jumped up and landed on AJ. I pulled up my AK and shot the dog off her. The gryphons started unloading on us. I saw a sniper bullet fly through the air and blow off a gryphon's leg. Twilight pulled out a grenade and threw it. It created an explosion and sent debris and body's flying. And a helicopter flew over head and started firing down at us.

I heard twilights voice say "Guys cover me I'm going for the javelin!" we all continued firing at the ground soldiers, I looked up at a building, and in the window and I noticed a sniper, I fired at him, but I was too late. He fired and I heard someone behind drop to the ground behind me.

"SHIT, SHIT, SHIT!!!!!"

"Twilight no!"

"NNNOOOO"

"GOD DAMMIT!"

The entire group shouted at once. Any emotion or bit of fear I had was gone, I stood up and ran to the javelin, and I turned around and started firing my gun until I ran out of ammo. I then ran back and fired the javelin at the helicopter, and knocked it out of the sky. The rest of the gryphons started to retreat.

"Holy shit....that was fucking awesome!!" I heard hornet yell to me. They all took their time congratulating me. We turned our attention back to twilight's body. And joy we had immediately vanished.

We heard multiple helicopters in the sky; we all looked up to see friendly helicopters.

"Thank fucking celestia, took them long enough" I said angrily. The group of 5 helicopters flew overhead, 2 started to ascend toward us. The other 3 started to attack the town. The helicopter opened up and soldiers walked out. Blaze and AJ went onto the helicopter, me and hornet picked up twilights body and walked into the chopper. The doors closed and we ascended into the air.
