Same Shit, Different Heat

"God help us now." said Caliga.

"Sir, you asked to see me?" Spark asked, oblivious to my presence in the room.

"Yes, do you know what's happened as of yesterday?"

"No, sir, I don't believe I have."

"The mares have gone into heat. Early." I said walking from the shadows.

"But, but that's impossible!"

"But unfortunately it's true." Caliga said "I asked you here to go and assemble the old group. Most will be found within the force, however, Mac and Turner decided against it. I want you to go and get them, if possible. I'm releasing a group of 10 stallions to go with you."

"O-okay sir."

"God-speed captain." I said "Dismissed."

"Do you think they're okay, Konner?"

"I don't know Caliga, I just don't know."

Mac's perspective

'creek' 'stepstepstep' My breathing slowed to a crawl. My sister just showed up, and I know what she wants. "Oh Big Mac, come on out here. Don't make this more difficult than it needs to be!" 'Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooope' Ain't getting raped by my sister, again, for like the umpteenth time. 'creek' 'stepstep' 'snap' 'thump' What in sam hell just happened.

"Yo Mac, you in here?" I here a familiar voice ask.

"Spark?" I questioned as I moved from my hiding place. My sister was unconscious and tied up on the floor, heh, serves her right. "What are you doing here?"

"We're getting the old team back together, and you just happened to be first. So what do'ya say?"

"Well, under normal circumstances I'd say no, but, I don't wanna be around when she gets out, so sure."

Konner's Perspective

"We got'em sir."

"Good job Spark, get the others as fast as you can. We need'em ASAP."

"Roger that, Spark out."

"So Mac's in?"

"Yea-"

"SIR, PEGASI ARE DIVE BOMBING THE NORTHWEST QUADRANT, THEY'VE ALREADY PICKED OFF 70% OF OUR TROOPS!"

"Roger that, Konner's on his way." Caliga said.

"Back into the fire?"

"Yep, just like old times, aye."

15 minutes later, northwest quadrant

"GET FIRE ON THAT ONE"

"ROGER THAT"

"AH, HELP ME!"

'CLICK CLICK' "FUCK, I'M OUT, FALLING BACK!"

"95% LOST SIR, THERE ARE TO MANY, WE CAN'T HOLD IT!"

"damn' ALRIGHT EVERYONE, FALLBACK, WE'RE FALLING BACK. I'LL COVER US, JUST GO!" I mounted a LEAD and fired at the horde as some 50 stallions ran. By the time the survivors were inside only 20 remained. "Damn it, out." They swarmed my position. "Oh fuck this." I ran for cover. I rolled right just as a mare zoomed past and into a crate. I slide under a loader, the mares however, ran first into the thing. I approached a door, entered it, and slammed it shut. "Fuck 'huff' that 'huff' shit." I radioed Caliga "Northwest down. Around 20 survivors."

"380 loses, damn that's too many. We need more time for spark to gather them."

"Caliga, with all due respect, we have at least 10,000 mares in the northwest Quadrant alone. With that secured it won't take'em long to break through. We need to focus on the defense right now. Inform the other bases that the mares have begun the offensive. They need to be on the lookout."

"Okay Konner you're right, I'll inform them. Try to get some of the troops morale back if you can, we won't stand a chance without it."

"We barely stood one with it, but okay."
