Equestria's Humans

Chapter 1

The moon had been in the same place in the sky for a week now, reluctant to move, making this half of the earth, frighteningly cold. If you looked at the group of men, you could see their guns were shaking heavily. It was cold, dark, and this group hardly had any experience. The men all looked up every once in a while, looking terribly nervous. Human belief was that death should be greeted by the sun shining down on them, glad that their soul was free. This never-ending night had been torturous to them.

"Men, calm down. We have only ten minutes to go," Shadow said, "Don't be so nervous."

"General Tenebris, how do you have such courage? Surely you have heard the rumors of this place," one soldier asked. It was true, the place they were going to invade had a record of ponies kidnapping people and torturing them and experimenting on them to learn human anatomy. Their unit had to sneak their way in, steal all the records, plant explosives, and make their way out. This place has done enough to human kind.

"Yes," the Shadow replied, "But you don't have to worry about that. I'm the one who is sneaking in. You guys only have to plant the explosives on the support beams on the bottom floor. Nobody is gonna be there, thermal scans show only three entities in the building. I'll take them out, and were done."

"Only three?" asked another soldier, "Scans show five now. The new ones are bigger than the others."

"What? Let me see," Shadow approached the support soldier. "I see. Says that they are unicorn guards. Probably teleported in." The other three ponies were mares. Probably just doctors and a janitor.

"Is it solar or lunar?" another soldier leaned in to look.

"Can't tell. He has armour and..." the support soldier's voice trailed off, "That's..." The soldier looked scared for a moment in realization.

"Forcannons," Shadow finished, "So royal guards, but what are they doing here?" Shadow pondered the thought for a moment, but was interrupted.

"Uh, General? There's another figure that just teleported in, and this one is even bigger." the support soldier said.

"So that's how it's goin down..." Shadow looked at his men, "How do you men feel about meeting royalty?" All the men looked shocked and speechless. "Don't worry, you guys will be far away," Shadow told them, "Speaking of which, it's time to go." Shadow got up and looked around before noticing the soldiers were still shocked. All of them were reluctant to get up.

"Come on guys, you won't even see them." Shadow reassured. At his words, the men slowly got up, and got ready.

"Explosives are go," said a soldier.

"Thermal still active," the support soldier motioned to his computer.

Shadow checked his ear piece, "Coms go. Alright, lets do this. Deactivate cameras."

"Cameras down," he heard in his ear. Shadow emerged from the deep ditch and lead the group to the back door of the facility.
