Abandoned NC Command Island, Auraxis, 1:47 PM

As Jed and Potatohead got off the Galaxy and made landfall on the island, they were greeted with the sight of a misty, damp, and almost Hossin-like area surrounded by pre-war buildings. "Wow, kinda reminds you of Hossin, doesn't it?" asked Jed, taking in his fill of scenery. "Yeah, only we don't have tanks and Sunderers being bogged down with TR Light Assaults in the tree's, spying on us." said Potatohead, "Come on, lets go see the ship and look at our bunks."

As Jed and Potatohead went to the building they were instructed to go to, they found themselves going underground through a deep, dark, shaft. "Wow, so, what do you think the ship will look like?" asked Jed, trying his best to see through the darkness. "I heard it is a close design to a Matterson Class Colony/Assault ship." said Potatohead, him too having trouble seeing in the darkness. "Oh yeah, I remember reading about those, possibly the best ships the old Terrans could offer. Soooooo much firepower, I hope I get to go to the Gun Deck." said Jed, fantasizing about shooting up TR in such a behemoth of power.

And as they exited the shaft, the were greeted with a blinding light, and the view of the behemoth of a ship. "Wow!" said Jed, his eyes, unmoving to the sight of the vertical ship. "Come on space-boy, lets go find our bunks." said Potatohead, heading towards the nearest ramp. "Wait for me!" said Jed, trying to catch up.

<><><><><><><><><>

As Jed and Potatohead went into the Crew's Quarters, they found out from a Sergeant that they would both be put in Engineering. "Huh, may I ask why we are being put into engineering?" asked Jed. "I think it's because they need more security, seeing as how at there are trained professionals guarding the bridge and Gun Deck." said the Sergeant, "Now hurry along to your quarters, you're holding up the line."

<><><><><><><><><>

As Jed and Potatohead entered their quarters, they realized that it was a bit more cramped than a Warpgate bunk. "well, I guess it's time to start unpacking." said Jed, chucking his tote-bag onto his bed. The first thing that Jed pulled out of his pack was an old photo.
"What's that?" asked Potatohead. "Oh, nothing but a small family photo, my Dad, my Grandfather, and me, right before I shipped out. I never saw them again." said Jed. "But I'm sure they're fine! Come on lets get the rest of our stuff out."

<><><><><><><><><>

After they got their thing unpacked, they headed down to the Engine Room, where they were given orders from one of the many C.O.'s in Phoenix Battalion. "Now you two are to patrol around the #2 and 3 Auraxium storage tanks, to protect from sabotage." Pirbi said, pointing to the two humongous cylinders marked with 'Auraxium Storage: Caution, Highly Explosive'. "Huh," said Jed, thinking what might happen if one were to go off. "You've got a problem with that Corporal?" asked Pirbi with a look of authority. "Uh, sir, no sir!" said Jed, trying to get Pirbi to stop his death stare. "Alright, now head back to your quarters, we are going to launch in eight hours, enough to get all supplies and nanites aboard." said Pirbi, turning around to check dials.

Suddenly, WillTheThe's voice came over the ship's intercom. "Attention all PHX onboard the N.C.S., dubbed the 'Liberty Bringer', all personnel need to report to the Command Bridge, for C.O. Blackweb is making an announcement."

"Well, I guess we are heading towards the Bridge then." said Pirbi, walking towards the doorway.

<><><><><><><><><>

N.C.S. 'Liberty Bringer' Bridge, Former NC Command Island, Auraxis, 3:23 PM

As all Privates, Corporals, Lieutenants, and Captains were filed into positions, (Captains put behind Blackweb) Blackweb stepped up towards the Command chair in the center of the Bridge. "Now, I know that all of you were prepared to set up a new home base for the NC on the planet we've discovered, but, we have discovered something very grave indeed, something that might mean the end of us all." Blackweb said, trying his best not to stare into the eyes of his troops. "It seems, that while we've lost communications with Earth, they've somehow developed the means of Faster Than Light travel, no matter how ludicrous is seems. They have brought a fleet of about eight Connery Class Battleships, five Briggs Class deep-space Fighter Carriers, and ten Morgannis Class Troop Tranport. Now, I have been discussing with a few NC officers and strategists, and we may make it through the fleet if we overclock the Auraxium generators, thus creating a lot of excess power, easily revertible to the shield generators, and the Vanu weaponry we 'liberated' will help greatly, and I have good faith that we will be able to secure victory, for the NC!"

"Yeah!" cries every NC in the Bridge. "Now, get back to your positions, we leave in eight hours." said Blackweb.

.....Eight hours later...

As a group of NC soldiers crowded around the 'Liberty Bringer', not knowing of what may happen, brought with the banners, fireworks brought from Nanite Systems. But there was no time for speculation and possible celebration on-board the 'Liberty Bringer', for there was running about in every corridor, activity in every room, and absolutely no time for small talk. It was just do or die. Victory, or ultimate defeat. "Engine's ready." said Pirbi, in his engineer kit. "Copy, Gun Deck fitted and prepped." said WillTheThe, doing final calibrations on the guns. "Great, Bridge comms operational." said Falconbane, overlooking a digital map of the 'Liberty Bringer'. "Alright boys and girls, lets light this candle." said Blackweb over all channels.

Suddenly, a gigantic roar came from the back of the ship that was facing downwards. Slowly, the ship started to climb, gaining speed the higher it got. "And we are off!" said Blackweb to the NC on the ground. And as the ship gained speed, heading off the island, all of the island was filled with fireworks and screams of joy. "All right Phoenix Battalion, prepare for combat, Pirbi, prepare to overclock, and Will, train the guns on the closest Connery Battleship, I want to see it gone is a few minutes."

And with that said, the ship blasted off towards it's destination of a new future. But the shape of a Connery twice the size of the NC Matterson, went in front of the 'Liberty Bringer' training its guns onto the ship. "Pirbi, where the heck is my overclock!?" asked Blackweb, beads of sweat coming off his forehead. "Coming right up!" said Pirbi, turning dials and flipping switches. And suddenly, a bubble of dark blue covered the 'Liberty Bringer', bouncing off any shell or bullet that hit it. "Opening fire now would be nice Will." said Blackweb. "On it sir." said WillTheThe. Then, a massive blast of energy erupts from every stolen Vanu gun on the ship, smashing into the engines and hangar of the Connery. And after the residual energy of the guns cleared, it could be seen that all but a couple of the Connery's engines had been knocked out, and the hanger was left with a giant hole. Oh, but the chaos was not done yet, suddenly, small explosions started to erupt from the Bridge of the Connery, leaving it a hunk of smoldering metal.

Seeing that a ship, twice the size if their Matterson, had been vanquished by them, the NC let up a cry of victory that could have shooken the ground beneath them, if there was ground beneath them. "Alright, let's make it to the wormhole, full speed ahead, and Will." said Blackweb. "Yes sir?" asked WillTheThe over the intercom. "Fire at will, show them what happens when they try and stop us." said Blackweb, now with a look of triumph on his face.

The 'Liberty Bringer' soon made it's way through the fleet, crippling and dismantling everything that got in it's way. And the casualties of the fleet you may ask? Well the total would be: two crippled and/or destroyed Connery Battleships, one Briggs Cruiser, and one Morgannis Troop Transport.

But as they neared the wormhole, a new ship soon came into the viewport of the Bridge. "What is that thing!?" asked Blackweb with an element of surprise. "I don't know sir, seems like some sort of boarding craft, but on a massive scale. And I think it's heading towards us!" said Falconbane. "Prepare everyone for boarding!" said Blackweb, reaching for his EM6 LMG.

Engine Room, N.C.S. 'Liberty Bringer', Outside of the Wormhole, Who Knows What Time

As Jed and Potatohead were walking around their designated position, they heard Blackweb over the intercom. "Attention all hands, unidentified craft approaching, prepare for boarding." he said. "You heard him Potatohead, prepare for anything." said Jed, raising his Razor to chest-height, hoping to take down any TR to pop up. Then, just as Jed expected, a small, needle-like object lodged itself into the hole. "What do you suppose that thing is?" asked an Engineer. "No, get away from it!" screamed Jed. But he was too late, for the pod opened up, and a squad of TR came through it, and mowed down the Engineer. "Return Fire!" ordered Pirbi, raising his Gauss Compact S to fire on the TR.

But then, three more pods lodged themselves into the Engine Room's hull, bringing now a platoon's worth of troops into the room, including four MAX suits, one of which had dual fracture rockets. "Take cover!" said Potatohead, pulling Jed out of the way as NC and TR clashed inside the closed spaces of the Engine Room. "Frag out!" said one of the engineers, pulling the pin and letting the cylinder-shaped grenade fall into a section of TR, turning them and the walls redder than before. "Follow me Potato." said Jed, using his jump-jets to fly up to the top of an Auraxium storage tank. "On it." said Potatohead, following Jed. As they go to the top of the tanks, the let loose a hail of bullets, and grenades onto the TR, whose MAXes had focused their attention on the pair. "RUN!" said Jed, jumping from the tank. And as the pair jumped from the tank, it soon caught fire. "Everyone! Run, it going to explode!" screamed Jed, but he was too late, for the tank soon erupted, letting loose a force of purple fire that soon made the other tanks catch fire, causing a chain reaction. And all Jed could remember seeing before he blacked out from the explosion was Pirbi and the Engineers get swallowed up by the fire of the Auraxium tanks.

.....30 minutes later.....

As Jed awoke from the sound of a blazing siren and scraping metal, all he could see was fire and a few dots of red. 'Owwww, my head.' Jed thought to himself. He then heard the sounds of what was thought to be moaning. Jed then reached for his Razor, only to find it no there. "Must have been destroyed in the explosion." said Jed to himself. He then reached for his Commissioner, glad to see it was still there. He then went towards the source of the moaning, his revolver out.

He was then greeted with a sight of horror, the burnt and dismembered bodies of NC and TR alike. "Oh God." said Jed to himself, putting his hand to his mouth. And as he made his way through the bodies, the moaning intensified. "Wh...Who's there?" asked Jed through his pain. "J...Jed?" asked the voice. Jed then recognized the voice he had fought countless battles with. "Potato!" screamed Jed with glee, soon wincing in pain. He soon followed the voice, only to find Potatohead crushed over a steel beam, with one arm pinned. "Wow Potatohead, really in a mess this time huh?" said Jed, trying to put a light of humor in the predicament. "Stop it with the humor, help me get this beam off me." said Potatohead, trying to push it off with his free hand. Jed soon rushed to his friend's side, trying his best to push the heavy steel beam off his friend, but to no avail. "I can't, it's stuck." said Jed, showing a face of defeat. Blackweb's voice is then heard over the intercom. "Attention *cough* all crew members *cough cough* I believe it is time to abandon ship, the engines are shot, and all guns have overheated and /or exploded. *cough* All remaining personnel report to the hanger to board modified Galaxies. *cough cough* The best of luck *cough* luck to all of you."

"Look, forget about me Jed, this war need men like you, go ahead I'll be fine." said Potatohead. "What do you think you are doing man!?" asked Jed. "Take my Rebel, I believe it is my time to leave this war." said Potatohead, using his free hand to grab his LA8 Rebel, a powerful sidearm with the same model of an NC4 Mag-Shot. "No.. I.. I can't do it, I'll get you out of here." said Jed, tears welling in his eyes. "No, do it, now that's an order." said Potatohead, pushing the Rebel into Jed's hands. "I..I.. I'm so sorry." said Jed, putting the pistol to his friend's head. "Don't be. Maybe I'll finally meet your family." said Potatohead, a smile forming. "I'll see you some day." said Jed. "Goodbye freedom-fighter, fight on." said Potato head, closing his eyes, waiting for the inevitable. Jed then turns his head, "See you when the fight is fought." he said, and pulls the trigger, making a bang that resounds throughout the room. Potato's body then goes limp, finally free of strain.

Jed, not wanting to see his friends remains, turns around, and marches towards the hangar, leaving behind a single tear.

N.C.S. 'Liberty Bringer' Hangar, Somewhere Near the Wormhole, Who Knows What Time

As Jed limped his way into the hangar, he could see that the last of the Galaxy's were about to take off. He then made his way to the closest Galaxy, which was nearly full and took a seat next to a battered Heavy Assault. "Hey, how are you?" the HA asks. Jed then recognizes the voice as the Battalion's C.O. "Captain Blackweb sir!" answers Jed, standing at attention. "Sit down Corporal." says Blackweb. "So, you are the only survivor of the Engine Room, what happened?" asks Blackweb. "Um, sir, four TR boarding pods made their way into the Engine Room and took out everyone and blew the Auraxium Storage Tanks. I was lucky to make it out alive." said Jed, looking at the floor of the Galaxy. "Hey you look very messed up, let me get you a patch gauss. said Blackweb, pulling out a piece of cloth, and applied it to Jed's wounds. "Thank you sir." said Jed, grateful for the charity of his superior. "Not a problem," says Blackweb, putting the rest of the gauss back, "The only problem I have is that this Galaxy is full and we are not moving, come on pilot! What's the hold-up?"

"Um sir, just doing some final calibrations," says the pilot through the slits in the parts separating the cockpit to the passenger area. "Aannnddd, we're off!" And the Galaxy takes off, leaving behind the wreckage of the 'Liberty Bringer', and soon joins the rest of the fleet that heads through the wormhole, to an unknown future. "So, Blackweb, I was wondering who attacked us, because I did not see that ship jump from space. More like it came from Auraxis." said Jed. "Well, remember when I said the TR might know of the wormhole? Well I was able to get a look at the back of the head of one of the boarders, and it seems it was TRAF that boarded us." explained Blackweb. "Okay, now I know who to shoot when we get back to fighting." said Jed.

Golden Oaks Library, Ponyville, Equestria, Equis, 10:37 AM

As Twilight was re-re-re-reading a few of the many books she kept in the library, she couldn't help but remember at what had happened the night before.

...Last Night...

As Twilight spent another night of observing the mixture of colors outside of the planet, she swore that she saw something weird come out of the colors; a group of about twenty-or-so flying objects that looked like nothing she had ever seen. But Twilight soon shrugged to sighting off as nothing more as a trick of the stars. She then continued to take notes for a few more minutes until a huge object then came out of the mixture, the color of red.

Twilight, appalled at the sight, soon stopped taking notes, and went to sleep, hoping that her eyes were tired and playing tricks on her.

...Back to Present Day..

As Twilight was recalling the night before, a certain purple and green dragon walked into the room. "Is there something wrong Twilight?" asked Spike, worried about her friend. "I'm fine Spike, just recalling something.. something very strange I saw last night." said Twilight, still perplexed about the two sights she saw last night. "Well, I just want to remind you that you have flying practice with Rainbow Dash in a few hours after she finishes her 'work'." said Spike, who knew that 'work' meant sleeping and getting it done last-second. "Thank you Spike, I'm sure Princess Celestia will appreciate me learning about my new wings." said Twilight. "Now if you will excuse me, I have bit of rereading to catch up on." says Twilight, going back to the book titled, "Your Wings and You".

Everfree Forest, Equestria, Equis, 5:27 AM

As Jed , Blackweb, and the other Galaxy's landed in a small clearing, they soon realized that this planet had an entirely different ecosystem than Auraxis. It even had trees similar to those on Amerish. "Alright men, it's not time to look at our new terrain, I want tents set up to house everyone and to help the wounded. And just in case the Terrans followed us, set up a few MANA turrets for defense." said Blackweb, directing troops into positions.

Soon, the clearing started to look like a real camp; tents set up in rows to house the wounded and tired, and a few larger tents used to serve food. And a couple of terminals jerry-rigged by a couple of Engineers.

<><><><><><><><><>

And as Jed walked around the sets of tents, he had a feeling of wanting to know what the casualties was, to see how many others died with Potato. He then saw SnowSheltie talking with a tall Heavy Assault. Jed then walked to the officer, and did an old fashioned salute. "At ease Corporal." said the Second-in-Command. "Oh, and this is BonesxMcoy, leader of Delta Squad in 1st Platoon."

"Hello there." says Bones, bringing out his hand for a handshake. Jed then shakes the hand, and turns to SnowSheltie. "UM sir, I was wondering if I could have a look at the casualty report?" asks Jed. "Sure, here you go." says Sheltie, pulling out a datapad with a list of names. "We have a total of 173 KIA, 293 WIA, and a total of 1534 Ready for Combat."

"Thank you sir, it will be a pleasure to get back at those TR." says Jed, now with a face full of bravery showing. "Now hold on Corporal, before you leave us, I just wanted to let you know you are being transferred to Delta squad, for that is what Bones and me were talking about before you showed up. It seems they lost their six, and you seem to have great references from other squads." said Sheltie. "W..wow, thank you sir! I will not let you down!" said Jed, doing another salute. "At ease, now go and help out around the camp or whatever, Bones and me have other things to discuss." said Sheltie, turning back to Bones.

And with that said, Jed goes away from the pair.

<><><><><><><><><>

Back at Jed's tent, Jed thought it was about time to go and try out one of the new protein packs that they were serving in the mess. But as he was about to leave, Bones walked into the tent. "Um, sir!" said Jed, doing yet yet another salute. "At ease Corporal, we are having a squad meeting in 30 minutes. Just letting you know." said Bones. "I'll be there sir." said Jed. "Okay Corporal, now, do whatever you were about to do, I'm going to go try out my new NS weapons." said Bones. But before Bones could leave the tent, the two heard WillTheThe's voice over platoon chat, "This is Lieutenant WillTheThe of Alpha patrol, we have encountered a TR force in our patrol and are in it deep right now, requesting support!"

Then, the sound of rushing footsteps and moving vehicles surround the tent. "Okay, scratch the squad meeting, Jed, grab your gun and lets get the rest of the squad together." said Bones, pulling out an NS-15M LMG. "Um, sir, I kinda lost my Razor when the 'Liberty Bringer' went down." said Jed. "Okay, I'll get the squad, you go to the nearest terminal and get a new gun, and we will group up at the squad Galaxy I always keep pulled." said Bones.

Bones then walked towards the other tents, probably to go look for the other squad members. But Jed ran towards the nearest Infantry Terminal. 'New planet. New Gun.' he thought to himself. He then walked up to an Infantry terminal and began to scroll through the different guns he bought over the years. AF-19's, GD-7F's, even more Razor GD- 23's, and even a couple of AC-X11's. But then, there was one weapon that caught Jed's eyes: an NS 11C Carbine, a well balanced over all carbine. Jed then bought a few attachments for it; a 2x reflex sight, a forward grip, and a compensator. "This will do nicely." Jed said to himself. Then, a green mist surrounded him, and the NS carbine took shape at his arms. "Nice." said Jed.

Suddenly, Bones' voice came over the squad chat. "Attention Delta squad, I want you to group up and load into the galaxy marked by the squad waypoint. You have one minute or we are leaving you."

Hearing this, Jed soon rushed over to the galaxy he had seen earlier, to only see that the rest of the squad had lined up next to it. Jed then took his place in the line, only to get questionable glances from the squad. "What do you think you are doing here jetboy?" asked one of the Heavy Assaults in a gruff voice. "Same as you, I was picked for Delta." said Jed, not at all phased by the LMG toting Heavy Assault. "Hah! You!? Picked for this squad? Now I've seen everything!" the Heavy Assault said.

"I believe that is true Mcgee." said Bones, suddenly walking up onto the squad in the middle of their banter. "Sir, are you really saying that I'll be serving alongside this fruit-bar?" asked Mcgee. "Yes, yes I am, and I don't want you thinking you are better than him, he earned his place in the squad like all of you did. Now, get into the Galaxy, we are dropping onto Will's position to provide support." said Bones, glaring daggers at Mcgee.

And with the order given, the squad loaded into the Galaxy, with Jed being one of the side gunners, manning an M20 Drake multi-purpose weapon. And after the rest of the squad got into the Galaxy, it took of towards the first battle on a new planet.

Ponyville, Equestria, Equis, 10:37 AM

As Rainbow Dash was doing her job of clearing out clouds for a scheduled clear day in Ponyville, she began to hear some weird noises coming from the Everfree Forest. "What the hay is that?" she asked herself. Then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the figures of her five friends. "Hey girls!" she said, which was soon followed by a crates worth of greetings from the five. "Have you girls heard the noises coming from the forest?" asked Rainbow Dash.

That is exactly the reason we came to you, Princess Celestia sent me a letter asking me to investigate some weird sightings in the Everfree Forest." said Twilight. "I bet ten bits that its aliens with Applejack!" said Pinkie Pie, with a tray of cupcakes balanced on her tail. "And what are the cupcakes for Pinkie?" asked Rainbow Dash. "If the aliens are hungry silly!" said Pinkie.

"And Ah' keep tellin' ya' that aliens don't exist. If aliens existed, then we'd have found them long ago." said Applejack. "Annnd that's the reason we made the bet!" said Pinkie.

"We can talk about this bet latter girls, the princess said it was of the upmost importance." said Twilight. " Can we please hurry this along darling, I believe I left the stove on at the boutique." said Rarity, with saddlebags full of sketchbooks, quills, and ink. "And what are those for?" asked Rainbow Dash out of curiosity.

"Oh, just in case I find any inspiration while on this little escapade." said Rarity. "Now about my stove..."

"I'm sorry Rarity but this is very important for the sake of Equestria." said Twilight with a serious face. "and wah' would t be a threat to Equestria?" asked Applejack. "Because last night, I saw some weird looking objects come out of the mixture of colors I've been monitoring for the past few days. The first to come out were a group of about twenty or so objects, but what came behind the group. Well, it was like nothing I've ever seen. But I the only thing I could make sense of them is their colors, red and blue." said Twilight, a look of worry plastered on her face. "But considering it was very late at night, I just considered that my eyes were playing tricks on me and went to bed. But now, well I believe these two separate instances are actually connected."

"See! I knew there were aliens! They are probably a group of bipedal hairless apes that fight each other for dominance of a far of planet, that in some parts that are a mystery to them!" said Pinkie Pie. "Yeaaahhh, sure." said Rainbow Dash. "Come on girls, lets go see if my suspicions are correct." said Twilight, leading the group into the forest.

"Are y-you sure Twilight, I mean, I've heard from my animal friends that there's increasing Timberwolf activity on the outskirts of the forest. Even my bear friend is afraid of it." said Fluttershy meekly. "I'm sure we will be fine Fluttershy, you have my word." said Twilight. " Now come on girls!" And as the group followed the lavender princess, towards an unknown discovery.

Delta Squad's Galaxy, Above the Tree Line of the Northern Everfree Forest, 10:40 AM

"Thirty second until the drop ladies!" bellowed Bones over the engine noise.

But in all the excitement in the Galaxy, Jed was the only one scared. He wondered what it would be like to fight Terrans on a whole new world, and that he was afraid he would die, because if he died, that was it.

"Fifteen seconds!" bellowed Bones.

Jed then decided not to think about it, and readied his NS-11C for combat on a new terrain. Ready to be able to be free of Terrans.

"Drop, drop, drop!" said Bones, he himself jumping out of the Galaxy.

Soon, all of the squad jumped out, letting a streak of blue rain down upon the attacking Terrans. And while jumping down, Jed got a good look at WillTheThe's position; MAXes trying their hardest to fight against the unending horde of black and red. Medics could barely make it of a makeshift foxhole without getting shot at. And the Infiltrators, Engineers, and Light Assaults, well, lets just say that the are helping the foliage grow in their own respect. And Heavy Assaults were laying down suppressive fire with LMG's and rockets.

Jed the used the branches of the trees to shoot at the Terrans, taking down two Medics and one Light Assault before having to reload. Soon the squad began to make a bit of a mess as well, taking down MAX suits and any Terran in their sights.

But the Terrans soon got out of the befuddled state the Gal drop had gotten them into, soon firing on Jed and Delta, taking out a couple of Medics. But Jed kept firing, trying to buy as much time for Will as possible.

But then, a dual Onslaught MAX soon sighted Jed and started to rake the tree with his dual chainguns, taking off bark and limbs alike. Jed then used his jets to hop from tree to tree, hoping that each time the MAX had lost him, but to no avail.

Jed then tried to get to the top of the trees, only to find a group of three Light Assaults, two of which had the standard issued TRAC-5 Carbine, but the middle one had a T5-AMC Carbine. "Time to die terrorist." said the middle one in a gruff voice. "I think not." said Jed, soon charging with his NS-11C.

The first two soon reacted, leveling their TRAC-5's to fire on him. But Jed thought smarter than this, and used his jumpjets to fly over the pair.

They the had him surrounded on two sides, with weapons raised. But as they pulled the triggers on their guns, Jed soon utilized a trick as old as Auraxis, And flopped to the leaves of the trees as the bullets barley grazed his jetpack. And as Jed looked up from his little trick, to see the group fallen to the ground, crumpled from the force of their own bullets.

"Huh, well that clears those three for a while." said Jed. He then pulled out his NS carbine, ready for more combat, until he felt a tap on his shoulder. And the face he was greeted with was none other than the face of the Terran with the T5-AMC Carbine. "Man I love Medics." he said, before digging his chainblade into Jed jetpack.

But instead of a blade digging into his spine, Jed began to hear the sound of his jetpack igniting. "Oh no, this isn't good." said Jed. "Oh I'm not done with you yet." said the Terrans, lifting Jed from the tree line.

Soon, more sparks ignited in the jetpack, only to unleash a mighty blaze that blasted the two Light Assaults in to the air, in mid-flight hand to hand combat.

Everfree Outskirts, Equestria, Equis, 10:52 AM

As the Mane Six headed to the edge of the Everfree Forest, Pinkie's tail suddenly began to twitch. "Twitch-a-twitch girls! Take cover!" said Pinkie, soon jumping behind an overturned tree.

Suddenly, two flying creatures, not of the Everfree, landed just mere feet away from the group.

But what was most strange about them was the colors that they wore, red and blue. Then, the red one pulled a sharp, knife-like object from the blue one's back and kicked the blue away. 'What are they doing here?' Twilight asked herself, perplexed by their arrival.

The red soon looked like he was winning, kicking the blue one all over the place. And as he was about to finish the job and bring his knife-ish looking object onto the blue's neck. The blue one then pulled out a weird looking contraption and blew a hole in the red's face. "What the buck was that!?" asked Rainbow Dash, with a face of confusion and horror. The blue one then heard Rainbow, and turned to face them, but soon fell over, red liquid running down his side.

The Everfree Forest Sky line, Over Equestria, 10:50 AM

As Jed and the Light Assault flew out of control on the jetpack, the Terran was able to land a few well placed punches on Jed's face, enough to make him face downwards. "We're gonna crash!" said Jed. And sure enough, they hit the ground seconds later, covered in grass and mud.

And even though they were both equally beaten up, the Terran was the first to get up, and pulled his Chainblade out of Jed's jetpack. "Get up rebel scum!" ordered the Terran, kicking Jed repeatedly in the stomach. "I guess it's time to finish the job." said the Light Assault, raising his Chainblade above Jed's neck. But Jed soon felt something against his thigh, and soon realized that it was none other than his Commissioner! Jed then pulled it out and aimed it at the Terran. "Yeah, I guess it is." said Jed, and pulled the trigger, driving the .44 caliber bullet into the Terran's skull, leaving a hole where part of it's brain was located.

But before Jed could return to the battlefield, he heard a woman-like voice behind him. He turned to meet this new voice, to be greeted with the shocked faces of a group of... equines. "What the...." said Jed, but suddenly, his vision got really blurry, and he fell over, unconscious.

"I guess I do owe yah' ten bits." said Applejack, handing ten gold coins to Pinkie Pie.
