The Invasion of The Weather Factory

Metro woke up in a blue sleeping bag and under the roof of a camouflaged tent. He groaned as he looked to the right of him, at the clock which stated it was 4:37 Pm. He tried to get up, but failed. Metro yelled out as he flared his hooves in the air, "Help me, I'm stuck!" Inferno's head popped out of the corner and started to laugh.

Inferno eventually calmed down, "I'll see what I can do," he said as he walked towards Metro. "Tell me, if you can take over Equestria in seven hours, how come you can't get up from the ground?" Inferno questioned Metro like it was a joke, and picked up Metro.

"Shut up," Metro answered angrily at him, only to have Inferno drop him. Inferno laughed and left the tent. Metro got up and walked to the closet. He took out Combine armor and his green striped gas-mask. 10 minutes later, Metro walked out of the tent and looked in binoculars he took from a table, he saw the town of Ponyville in the light of the sun.

"Sir, we're getting strange readings coming from Ponyville," a Metro-Cop slowly said as Metro turned around.

Metro sighed and interrogated the cop, "What sort of readings?" The Metro-Cop cleared his artificial throat then gave a tablet to Metro. Metro skimmed through the technological pages on the tablet, then handed it back to the cop. "We need to inform EarthQuake," Metro ordered as the cop took out his radio from his belt, then started to repeat the order to mission control. Metro looked back at Ponyville, and he began seeing strange things. Pegasi taking foals and royal guards helping them do so. Metro put down the binoculars and slowly walked towards the tank.

Inferno looked away from the female Metro-Cop and asked, "What do you want?"

Metro answered with the most serious answer, "I want war." Inferno was surprised he said that, even when Metro was peaceful around Ponyville.

Inferno went in the tank and after ten minutes, he popped out of the passenger seat to announce to Metro, "You wish has been answered." The Metro-Police followed the soldiers into the armored trucks behind the tank. Inferno and Metro jumped in the tank as the tank begun moving towards Ponyville. "First, we're declaring Ponyville into lockdown," Inferno yelled as the heavy tracks on the tank hit the ground, "Then, we're going full assault, no mercy." Metro chuckled like the plan wasn't horrible enough, Inferno looked at him angrily as he continued with the plan, "Since the factory's too big to blow up with C-4, we decided to go atomic." Metro took off his mask, revealing his surprised face.

"The radiation could go to Ponyville," Metro said, trying to give more logic to the plan.

Inferno sighed and looked at the driver, "When are we going to reach Ponyville?" he questioned the driver.

The driver answered as the tank slowed to a halt, in front of Town-Hall, "We're here now." Metro placed his mask back on and picked up a Barrett 50. Cal with his magic.

Metro opened the hatch and started to joke around, "If I don't get one kill with one anti-matter bullet, I owe you vodka." Inferno laughed as Metro got out of the tank. Metro laid on his stomach and loaded his sniper rifle, aiming at a female pegasus. "Too easy," he said to himself as he fired a anti-matter bullet straight through the mare's skull. Metro chuckled and slipped back in the tank. "Now you owe me a bottle of whiskey," Metro told Inferno as the tank begun to shake.

"We're being hi-," the driver said but got cut off by a hoof breaking through the bullet-proof glass. Gunfire was coming from every side of the tank. A Metro-Cop opened the hatch and tried to yell out something, but a stallion grabbed his arms and bit through his neck.

"Oh no you don't!" Inferno yelled as he pulled out two Sawed-Off Shotguns from the box under his seat. He fired the two guns straight at the stallion, all was left of the stallion was his body. "Get out of here, I can deal with this," Inferno ordered as he climbed into the cannon. Metro climbed out of the hatch, seeing a battlefield of pegasi and Metro-Police. Metro knew it would be nightfall when Hurricane's backup gets to the battlefield. He jumped and grabbed a pegasus flying towards him.

"You're not getting out of here alive!" Metro took a pin off of a sticky grenade and placed it on the stallion's back. He jumped off as the stallion's blood flew everywhere, it rained blood and guts. Hundreds of pegasi surrounded one house, and Inferno loaded the cannon. A loud ringing noise echoed in Metro's ears as a tank-shell flew past him. The house exploded in blood. Hurricane's backup finally got to the battlefield, in the form of ospreys. The five silver colored ospreys landed softly, with silver Combine soldiers jumping out of them. Fire units followed the infantry, blasting fire at every pegasus they see flying towards them. Hundreds of pegasi laid on the floor, some burnt and some missing their skin. Gunfire has stopped for once, the pegasi began retreating towards the clouds. A dead pegasus flew down and crashed into Metro, causing him to become knocked out.

Hurricane picked up Metro and whispered, "You're not dead, but if you are dead, we'll win this war for you." Hurricane placed Metro on a osprey, with medics attaching tubes into his skin and placing him on a chair.

Inferno jumped into the osprey and yelled, "Get ready for the invasion!"
