Pony Alert 1

Chapter 9: Solar Empire 5: Under the Sea Nopony can hear you laugh

Location: Equestrian Ocean, The Crystal bay, The Bloody Cake command sub, storage room.

"Hihihihihihihiihihihihihhihi, o you are so silly jelly. Oooh what's that are you jellyous. Hihihihihiihi. On me. But Mr Jelly you shall know not everypony, or well everyjelly can be as funny as me. " The white Pegasus Mare giggled at her own puns.

She stood in front of a giant aquarium filled with several jellyfishes of different kinds. They swam around in peace ignoring the pony's face pressed on the aquarium's glass. "Bluuaaah." She now did a grimace against them and licked on the glass with her tongue. "Mmm, taste like cake. What was that! YOU DON'T THINK I'M FUNNY! I'LL MAKE YOU LAUGH!" She grabbed a big machine gun that stood against the wall and aimed it towards the aquarium. "You know who never laughed at my jokes? Huh, huh? My parents. You know what I did to them, I bucking cut them up like somepony's birthday cake. Oh boy that was the best bucking meal I've ever tasted. Num num, mom and dad never figured that you would taste so sweet."

The doors behind her opens and in comes a sea blue crystal pony stallion. On his shaved head he wears a red captains hat with a golden sun upon. He wears a red shirt and a black belt. "No, baby what in Celestia's burning horn are you doing!"

"These moon licking jellyfishes are mocking me! They should know better than to not laugh at my jokes!" The white Pegasus eyelids where twitching violently.

"Baby, they are jellyfishes. Stupid, slimy and pathetic jellyfishes. They can't laugh, and they can't understand your wonderful jokes. I wouldn't have you wasting your beautiful breath on such pathetic lifeforms, when there is a whole crew of ponies waiting to hear your best jokes. Now put the machine gun away." The crystal pony smiled warm at the Pegasus and he then walked forward to her and embraced her. "I love you baby."

"I love you to, First mate. Hiihihihi i'm married to my first mate. That calls for a paaarteeeee!"

"Maybe the party should wait until we are done with our mission baby?"

"We are done aren't we, I mean we've gathered like over hundreds of those silly jellyfishes. Have I ever told you how much I love jellyfishes, just look at them. They look like jelly you know the tasty one you have for dessert. I would've eaten them all if not that giant robot Trixie wanted to turn them into giant lamps. Hihihihi so silly, to attack ponies with a giant lamp made of jelly."

"Hehe, yes that is silly indeed. And thanks to you Trixie can mutate them. You are really the best captain a submarine could ask for." He then kissed the Pegasus on the cheek. "But our mission is not complete, Celestia gave us new orders to assault the Crystal ponies old submarine fleet in dry dock at their base in Hayburg. The idiots haven't even deployed a single sub. It will be an easy prey."

"Oooh, what an awesome surprise. I LOVE SURPRISES! That's my name. Hihhihi. Surprise, Admiral of the Solar submarine fleet, Wonderbolt and happy wife."

"And the best of them all on those things. Trust me I know." He then gave his wife a kiss on the mouth.

"Uh oh wings getting stiff back here. Hihihihi." The Pegasus white wings where stretched out wide and thick. She looked at her husband with hungry eyes.

"I just got the naughtiest idea. Hehe."

"Does it involve me moaning loud?"

"Perhaps." He then brought them both down on the cold metal floor and then he sat on top of his wife.

"What if somepony sees us hihihi."

"That would be a shame to that pony. I would need to pierce his eyeballs with my harpoon so he can't hear us." The crystal pony then removed his wife's blue uniform.

"I almost hope that somepony sees us, it would be so fun to see you pierce their snooping eyeballs. Aaah I can see it in front of me, all the blood. So beautiful." The Pegasus removed the red shirt from her husband and his black belt. The mare looked on his cutie mark, a green sawfish with a big smile on it's face. Behind it was a bloody harpoon. "I love your cutie mark, it smiles hihihihi. Oh and keep your hat on. It turns me on."

"Yeah I know it's always been special to me. I mean how many ponies gets the same animal on their cutie mark as their country's naval symbol. It was a sign that i was destined to become the greatest and most skilled admiral in the history of Crystal Germaneigh. Oh, Surprise my love sometimes I really miss those days. Nothing beats the feeling inside of an old Crystal sub."

"Hihihi and now we are on the way to... Uuugh.. Whoa that felt good. And now you will destroy the last trace of your old pathetic navy."

"Yes you are right love. Crystal Germaneigh has become a pathetic nation. What was once the proudest and most feared nation in all of Equestria is now some pathetic love nation. We had hope, yes we had. Sombra,,,Uugh.. Sombra were supposed to bring the Crystal ponies honor. And then he bucking disappeared."

"What a Surprise hihi." The Pegasus breathed heavily and quickly.

"Yes, and a sad one as well. I bet it was that bucking whore Cadance who had him murdered."

"Yeah, yeah just be quiet and..."

"UUUUUGHH!" The two ponies moaned out loudly.

"You did good admiral."

"Why thank you, my loyal first mate. But not as good as you. Hihihihi, I hope somepony heard us so you could pierce their earholes with your harpoon. Hihihi."

"You now we could still do that..."

"No we can't, Celestia gave me strict orders of not killing our crew all the time."

"Not even the recruits?"

"Not even the recruits." The Pegasus rose and flew away towards the door of the storage.

"Wait shouldn't you take your uniform?"

"Nopy lopy. I prefer flying without that stupid uniform. It's much more flexible that way. Hihihi. And it's so warm down here. I'm all sticky."

"But your grand admiral hat? You can't go to the men without it."

"To bad cause I left it on the command bridge. Hihihi." Surprise flies to the metal door that opens with a squeak.

"We should really oil that door, it sounds..."

"Super fun I know hihihihi. No I think it should remain that way. When I come to think of it I want every single door in this sub to sound like that. Hihiihihihi."

"Whatever you say baby." Then he took on his clothes again and followed his wife. While walking in the lower levels of the Bloody Cake you spotted the machinery of the giant engine that kept the propellers on the sub's stern running. Pipes where running in all directions. Several mechanics where working on the engines and looked over all the instruments and panels on the walls of the giant sub. In a corner behind a large pipeline a sat a sleeping earth pony mare. Her coat was black and her mane was shaved of. A yellow helmet laid over her face and next to her laid a wrench. Surprise flew past her but the crystal stallion stopped before her.

The stallion cleared his throat loudly.

"Aw bucking donkey crap, I'm so sorry first mate Deep Streams. I didn't mean to fall asleep. It was an accident I swear on Celestia's name." The black mare jumped up scared.

The stallion smiled back at mare who looked like he was pointing a gun in her face. "Calm down now sailor. I won't hurt you, I know you don't I? You are Oily Cogs aren't you?"

"Um yes sir."

"You are a talented mechanic, I remember hiring you myself. You are doing a fine job, probably working day and night. Am I right?"

"Um well yes sir, we've had some problem with the second engine and I couldn't bring myself to sleep until it was fixed."

"And thus you fell asleep while on duty after the engine was fixed?"

"Yes sir, but i'm so so sorry sir. It will never happen again..."

"I don't want your excuses, because you should not be giving them."

"Huh?"

"You did a perfect job sailor, sacrificing your own spare time to fix the engine, while everypony else where sleeping. That's the kind of ponies i want on my crew. I completely understand that you fell asleep on duty, but I won't allow it to happen again. Are we clear?"

"Yes sir. And thanks sir." The black mare looked extremely relieved.

"You're a good mare, just remember this if you ever fall asleep again make bucking sure that Admiral Surprise won't catch you doing it. She will probably flay your hide of if she sees you."

"Yes sir." The mare looked worried again.

Suddenly Surprise appears between the two talking ponies. She is flying upside down. "SURPRISEE! What are you two talking about? Hihihi."

"I was just done with congratulating Ms Cogs here on a job well done."

"Well, shouldn't you thank him? It's pretty rude to not say thanks when somepony is nice to you. It's like if I would give you a present, and then you don't thank me. That would make me very sad and i'm sure that Streams here would be very sad as well if you didn't thank him. And if my sweet Deepy is sad then i'll be sad and trust me, you won't like me sad." Surprise's eyelids where twitching violently again.

"Thank you first mate Deep Streams. I'm honored sir." The black mare looked like she was on the edge of a breakdown.

"That was soooo much better, hihihihihi. Doesn't everything become sooo much nicer and happier when you are polite? Huh, huh?" Once again Surprise's eyelids where twitching.

"Yes captain admiral."

"Hihihihihi, oh you are funny. I mean how many mares have a shaved mane, like you must be the first. HIhihihihi you look awfully silly. And ugly. Buuuut I still like you. You're promoted."

"Um thanks captain admiral." Now the mare looked confused.

"Ooo you are now promoted to my own personal..."

"How about she becomes our new chief mechanic? Since you had the last one thrown into the sea." Deep Streams interrupted his wife.

"Well the last one was a worthless idiot." Surprise flew up into the face of Oily Cogs still flying upside down. Can you believe it, I told the best joke EVER and he didn't even smile. The nerves. So I had him thrown into the deep daaark ocean. And now he's partying with the fishes. Hihihihihi. You get it, he's partying with the fishes."

"Hehe. Brilliant captain admiral." The black mare gave her captain a very forced smile.

"That's a good chief mechanic. Hihihi. Deepy baby, can you show her to the chief mechanic's quarters and then meet me on the command bridge?"

"Of course my love."

"Great." Then the Pegasus flew away still flying upside down.

"Follow me Ms Cogs. You are a good sailor and a even better mechanic and I would hate to lose you because of our beloved captain having a bad day. Therefore I have some rules that will ensure your survival."

The black mare looked terrified. "Survival?"

"Don't worry miss Cogs follow my rules and do your job and nothing bad will happen to you. First rule, always smile. It doesn't need to be a big smile but I have noticed that those ponies smiling on duty have a longer lifespan around Surprise. Second rule, always laugh at her jokes. If she tells you something that isn't a order then laugh. Better safe than sorry. Third rule, never imitate or trash talk the admiral. Fourth rule, never mention anything about parents of any kind. Sixth rule, never talk to, or about me and never look at me unless you have something important to say."

"Why shall I avoid you sir, if I may ask?"

"Well we wouldn't want Surprise believing that you had feelings for me now would we? She can be a bit paranoid. That will not end well trust me. One navigator we had tried to kiss me once and Surprise chopped of her lips and then threw her to the piranhas. Oh she's so beautiful when she get's her anger attacks."

"Piranhas? Gulp."

"Yes, they are really a fascinating species. We have a tank of them in our private quarters. Did you know that a shoal of piranhas can eat an giant squid in less than ten seconds? Thus making it the deadliest animal in all of the Equestrian depths. Well at least of those known to ponykind. What if you would turn the piranhas into a weapon and then send them against our enemies? With such a small and destructive weapon we would gain dominance over the seas in days."

"That's really brilliant Streams, um I meant sir. Why don't you tell Celestia about it? I mean with admiral Surprise's high position in the military, surely they would listen to you?"

"Although my wife is admiral doesn't it mean that the other generals listen to her. They believe her to be an idiot and a tool they can use in whatever way they wishes. She may be a psychopathic maniac but that doesn't mean she is stupid. One day the other Wonderbolts will learn that the hard way. Like her parents did."

"But won't they listen to sir? You are after all an old veteran from the first war."

"Sadly Ms Cogs they sees me as an pathetic traitor, and many of them still believes me to be loyal to Crystal Germaneigh. And that ugly whore Sunset Shimmer does listen to nopony but herself. She is a pathetic idiot really, I've seen so many of her creations that the old crystal pony scientists could have done better. "

"But you aren't right? Still loyal to the crystal ponies?"

"I'll always be loyal to my beloved homeland. But that land crumbled under the claws of the bucking griffons with the help of that disgusting Alicorn bitch Cadance. She sold us all to our enemies. I'll avenge my beloved homeland in the name of my beloved wife."

"So you are not loyal to Celestia? Sir."

"Not one single bit."

"Why are you fighting on the enemy's side then?"

"Only one thing is stronger than the love I feel for my home and that is the love I feel for my wife. To stand side by side with her and create a new future for the crystal ponies, that is something that beats all glory I ever gave to my homeland."

"I thought we where going to eradicate Crystal Germaneigh from the map of Equestria, not create a new future for them."

"Well I convinced my beautiful wife of asking Celestia to be in command of Crystal Germaneigh after the war, and luckily Celestia loved the idea of Surprise in charge over a country. She probably thinks that Surprise will kill of all the population when they don't laugh at her jokes. But in fact I will be the pony in charge and I will restore the crystal ponies to honor."

"Isn't this treason sir?"

"How can it be treason? No I will open the eyes of the crystal ponies and lead them towards the path of glory."

"It still sounds to me like you wan't to stab Celestia in the back."

"That would be something that would doom all of Crystal Germaneigh. No Celestia is far too powerful to defeat. What I want is to restore the old times. The old nation I loved. And that is something I will do. When Celestia has broken them down, burnt their homes and crushed their spirits I will come to their salvation. I will build a new Germaneigh from the ashes. A Germaneigh loyal to Celestia, but still the same nation I once loved."

The two ponies arrive at a metal door. A sign above the door shows a wrench and and two gears.

"Here we are, the chief mechanics quarters. It's not much but you have your personal bed and a toilet. That's more than most ponies have on this ship."

"Thanks sir. But I must ask sir, why are you so open to me? I mean those things you told me sounded kinda personal."

"Well you could say that i'm an open book ready to be read. And I love talking about my old home, I could stand here telling you stories of my old crew all day but I must sadly go to the bridge and see my wife. We got a very important mission ahead of us. You can take the rest of the day of. Then report to the command bridge for your new orders tomorrow." Deep Streams walks away leaving the black mare at the doors.

"Thanks sir. For everything. Hehe, never imagined that I would be promoted when you woke me up."

"That you can thank the admiral for that. I she hadn't killed her crew all the time the chief mechanics post wouldn't be open for you to take."

"Still thanks sir, you probably saved my life."

"Just make sure you stay alive long enough to be a benefit to this sub, okay?"

"Of course sir."

Deep Streams walks away from the door and towards a staircase that leads both up and down. He walks up for two floors and then he arrives at the command bridge. A giant glass window makes you see out into the dark waters that are lit up by two giant headlights, one on each side of the sub. Banners with Celestia's sun upon are hanging at the walls. A large steering wheel made of gold is located in the middle of the room on top of a platform. At the platform are several levers too. In front of it are several computers and radars in an arch. Several ponies sits in front of the computer screens. Behind the steering wheel is a large periscope and a microphone attached to he floor with a metal tube. Surprise is currently using the periscope.

"We need somepony to clean the periscope lens, I can't see for shit."

The ponies at the screens looks back at their captain. One of them dears to speak. "Um sir that's because we are to deep down under the water to use it."

"Why are we not at periscope depth? Huh, I thought it was obvious that if Surprise is using the periscope then the sub shall be on bucking periscope depth!" IDIOTS, I should feed you all to my piranhas." Her eyelids where twitching once again.

"Then it's best we go to periscope depth directly then right sailors?" Streams goes forwards to the steering wheel.

"Yes sir." They all nod their heads and exchanges worried looks. Streams then pulls one of the levers beside him. The water outside goes from a dark blue to a more greener brighter color. The headlights turns of as you now can see through the waters without their light.

"Oooh, that is so much better, thanks baby. Surprise flies away from the periscope and kisses Streams on the cheeks. "Lucky me who got you on my crew." She then flies to one of the ponies at the computers. In front of her lies a large map of Equestria with several markings at the seas on the map. On the map lies several navigation instruments.

"How far away is Hayburg navigator?"

"We are soon within torpedo firing range of their submarine dock sir. Five minutes at most sir."

"Excellent." Surprise turned and smiled a psychotic smile towards her husband. "The time has come Deep Streams my love, to send the crystal fleet to the bottom of the ocean. Aren't you totally psyched I mean this will be sooooo fun. Hihihihi."

The crystal pony looked sad and troubled. "Surprise my love I must ask of you an favor."

"Anything for you my love. Hihihihihi, is it to fire the torpedoes hihihi. Because if it is then you have my blessing to do so."

"Do I have your permission to speak with the commander in charge? Because..."

"Sir that is treason. He speaks of selling our position to the crystal ponies. That's treachery against Celes...." The mare at one of the computers was instantly silenced by the blade through her throat. Blood splashed all around her hitting ponies in the faces as the kitchen knife that Surprise had thrown pierced her flesh and veins. Surprise gazed at her husband with eyes filled with panic as well as hatred. Everypony else sat still as if they where petrified. Except Deep Streams that looked as chill as the sea itself.

"W.. wh.. what.. are you talking.. about.. baby.. we.. we've b..been over this a.. an.. and we.. we..." The Pegasus held several more sharp kitchen knifes with her wings. She pointed them towards her husband as her whole body was shaking violently and tears where forming in her eyes. "Y..yo..you said t..that I..I meant more t.. than those BUCKING CRYSTAL PONIES!!!" Now tears fell like from a waterfall.

Streams walked forward to his wife still as calm and kissed her. He then embraced her with the most gentle hug. "Oh my wonderful wife you mistake my intentions. I only sought to strengthen our numbers by turning their commander over to our side. I was after all their captain and admiral once, as you are mine now. I know these ponies, and I believe that if I only show them the truth they will once again see the sun's light. As you once showed me."

The Pegasus stopped crying and started to laugh instead."Hihihihihihi oh I am so silly. Of course you shall get the chance to speak to them. Make me proud and give me a bigger fleet. GO TO SURFACE DEPTH!"

The giant sub rises once again and the waters gain a even brighter color. Deep Streams walk towards the door. Surprise follows him thus leaving the bloody ponies alone on the command bridge. On his way out Streams grabs a long metal harpoon strapped on a leather belt. The two ponies walks down a hallway until they reaches a metal ladder built into the wall of the sub. Streams climbs up for the ladder until he reaches a hatch and opens it. Beyond it is another hatch which he opens as well. Now he climbed up out of the hatch and onto the tower.

The crystal pony smiled at the sight that met him. A large city at the Coastline with many big old crystal houses and a high wall that went along the coastline. The wall went out into the sea and a sea gate guarded the bay that went into the city. On the wall where several cannon towers and bunkers. Ponies had gathered on top of the wall to see the giant tower that had appeared not far away from the city in the middle of the ocean.

"Hayburg, my beloved home. Surprise love do you have the flag with you?"

"Sure do hihihihi." Surprise brought forward a white flag with Celestia's golden sun upon. This was the flag representing negotiation. She raised it on the flagpole on the tower. Not long after the sea gate opened and a small motor boat came driving towards the sub's tower. It was a small boat colored in the green of the Crystal Alliance. One pony was driving it alone. He was a cyan crystal stallion with a short dark green mane. He also had a beard in the same green. On his head he wore a black pike helmet. At the front of the helmet was a saw fish surrounded by waves. The saw fish and the pike was made of gold. He smoked on a pipe.

The boat stopped in front of the tower. The pony looked sadly at the white flag and then he spoke in a serious tone. "What do you solar ponies want now? This is waters of the Crystal Alliance and you are trespassing. I warn you to leave right now. Fail to comply and we will take action."

"Hihihihi look at him he thinks he can hurt us in his small boat hihihihi." Surprise flew over to the pony in the boat. " I am grand admiral Surprise of the Solar submarine fleet, Wonderbolt as well and..."

"I don't give a buck who you are, you will leave these waters now!"

"Fine I don't really care, but I bet he does." Surprise pointed at Deep streams that now had walked forward to the edge of the tower.

"Hi brother." Deep Streams smiled at his brother.

The pony in the boat dropped his pipe as he stared shocked at his brother. B.. brother, you're alive?"

"Well do I look dead to you?"

"For all these years.. where have you been, I thought.. they told me your sub sank. At the siege of Trottingham.. What happened?"

"That part is true, my sub sunk at the hand of a Lunar destroyer. They caught us in the rear. My whole crew sank to the bottom of the sea. A gunboat found me at some floating debris, the only thing that kept me from drowning. They recognized who I was and brought me back to their commanders. They sent me to the a Northcolt prison camp in Siberimare where I would spend the rest of my days as an laborer to the Northcolt Empire to pay for my so called war crimes. When Celestia destroyed the prison camp..."

"No... NO, NO! Stop I know what you going to say just stop." A tear fell from his eye.

"Naaw, your brother seems sad, shall i cheer him up?"

"No love, he just don't understand what i'm talking about."

"Really, It seems bucking clear to me. You appear on board a solar submarine in a solar uniform after almost twenty years and you are speaking of Celestia." The tears turned into anger. You are a solar marine now aren't you?"

"You don't understand brother after Celestia freed me I tried to return home. But the road from Siberimare to Crystal Germaniegh is long and dangerous for the pony without bits. I did all I could but no matter what I couldn't get past the border. So I settled down, did what I could to survive and lived on the hope that one day I would return home to my beloved Germaneigh, to my beloved brother. And one day I got in contact with a fellow crystal mare. She told me of everything that had happened, how we lost the war, how the griffons humiliated and stole everything from us but she also told me of Sombra."

"Sombra...." Streams brother looked confused and worried.

"She told me all about this unicorn, how he was going to rebuild our nation and take revenge on everypony that ever dared to defy us. I told her who I once was and thanks to her I got in contact with Sombra himself. He made me his spy in the Solar Empire. For years I served him honorably until one day everything went silent. I couldn't get in contact with anypony back home, the whole network that I had built over the years went down over a single night. I had failed my home once again. I began to fade away, slowly until nothing of me remained. I was a empty shade of a once great pony. That was when I met Surprise. She showed me that there was more to my life than being a soldier. She showed me love. Thanks to her I got in contact with the outer world. I heard what had happened to our once great nation, how we had fallen into the dirt to kiss the griffons claws. I heard how that whore Cadance destroyed my home, piece by piece. I knew that I needed to do something, to stop her! Once again Surprise helped me out. She told me about Celestia's plans and thanks to her I got a chance to speak with the Alicorn myself. I told her of my plans and she made me the second in command of her fleet in exchange for my loyalty and the schematics of our submarines which I knew as good as my own pocket."

"YOU GAVE CELESTIA OUR SUBMARINE SCHEMATICS. YOU BUCKING SWINE!!" Now pure hatred burned in his eyes. "YOU BUCKING TRAITOR. HOW COULD YOU!! You where my brother..."

"All I ever done was in the name of Crystal Germaneigh. Don't you see brother? There is no way to defeat Celestia, the only way to ever save Crystal Germaneigh is to join her. I am saving the crystal ponies. If it wasn't for me, Celestia would eradicate every single crystal pony. But I convinced her of our use, that we could be allies only if that Cadance is out of the way. Together we will restore honor to this broken nation! Join me with your fleet, give Hayburg our beloved hometown to the Solar Empire and send our submarines to destroy the griffons. Together we will lead the crystal ponies as Sombra once did!"

"Sombra... Sombra was a psycho, a monster that only wished to see everypony but himself suffer. Cadance is the best thing that has ever happened to this nation. She did the impossible, turned old foes into friends and showed us what truly are important. And you would see it all burn... I can't let you do this brother. Leave now brother and return to kiss Celestia's hoofs. Leave before the love I once held for you is all gone. If you ever loved Hayburg or Germaniegh leave."

"Hihihihhihihihihihihi, oh love do you hear him. He threatens us. Us! Hihihihi. Maybe you should show him what a true crystal pony does to those who threatens them." The Pegasus flew up to her husband again.

"I was a fool to believe you was untainted by Cadance's love plague. As I was a fool to believe Hayburg any different than rest of the crystal ponies. You are not my brother, you are a shade of what once was the proudest captain. And I would rather see you dead than seeing you like this. The same goes for Hayburg. I would rather see it burn than being a pathetic slave to the griffons." Deep Streams walks towards the hatch of the sub.

"Pang!"

The shot misses Streams and hits Surprise in the right hind hoof instead. Blood and pieces of bone bursts out from the hoof covering the tower deck in blood. Surprise screams out in pain and crashes on the deck. More blood is pumped out on the deck from the hoof that got completely pierced by the bullet. Streams runs over to his wife and grabs her. "Surprise, baby lie still now. Don't worry love it's just a hoof you'll be fine as long as the medic... WHERE'S THE BUCKING MEDIC, TELL HIM TO COME UP HERE OR I'LL RAPE HIS ASS WITH MY HARPOON!!" Streams roars down the hatch. You could hear ponies moving down there and not long after comes a dirty unicorn stallion up and two guards. The unicorn wear a white cap and a white apron with a red cross upon. He also has a first aid kit with him. The two guards starts to fire their guns at the boat.

"STOP!! He's mine." Stream grabs his harpoon and walks to the edge of the tower. He stares at his brother who sits in cover behind the controls of the boat. He has a pistol in his mouth.

"The Maus Crystal 96 pistol... Those where always your favorite choice of weapon. A bad weapon on the seas." Streams grabs the harpoon on his back and points it towards the boat.

"Better than a harpoon, at least. You got only one throw and then your weapon is forfeit."

"Who says i'm going to throw it?" Streams jumps down to the boat and points the harpoon towards his brothers back. Streams lands safely on the boat while his harpoon breaks his brothers back. The sharp harpoon goes through his whole body with ease and sticks the deck. Blood sprays in all directions and the pony is starting to cough blood. He lies with his broken back in a growing pile of his own blood.

"Streams turns and walks over to his dying brother. He spit him in the face. "You are a disgrace to that helmet, Kelp."

"Kelp just coughed up more blood as he tried to speak. "Don't.. call me by my name y.. you FREAK!" He then spat all the blood he could in his brother's face.

"Admiral Smoky Kelp. Admiral of a soon to be destroyed fleet. Such a shame brother if only you would've listen all of this could have been avoided, but now you and all of Hayburg will be destroyed. It pains me to see my old home and family to have fallen this low." He than grabs his harpoon and pulls it out Kelp's body causing the wound to explode in even more blood. The poor pony wails in pain. Streams then thrusts the harpoon through the deck. Water fills the boat as it begins to sink. Before he leaves his brother to die he grabs his pipe that laid on the floor of the boat. Streams jumps back to the submarine with the help of his harpoon. On the deck lies Surprise and the medic sits next to her. Her hoof is now bandaged.

"Oh hi baby. Did you kill that stupid brother of yours? Hihihihi." She looks tired but otherwise fine.

"Yes I did. How's the hoof? He takes seat beside her and kisses her on the cheek.

"It will be fine I mean what use do I got for my hind hooves anyway? I'm a Pegasus hihihihihi."

"Will she ever be able to walk again? Answer honest medic!" Streams looked scared.

"For the moment no. But when we get back to Helios City so can she get a prosthetic that will work as her normal hoof. The dirty medic replied.

"Oooh hihihihi, I will get a metal hoof just like Trixie hihihi. That will be so fun maybe i'll sound like her when i walk as well hihihi."

"I'll make sure that you'll sound just like that if it's what you want."

"Sorry to interrupt sir but it looks like the crystal ponies have noticed that their commander won't come back. The soldier pointed at the walls of Hayburg. Ponies where running on top of the wall and manning the guns and bunkers.

"Then we'll better take care of them. Medic take admiral Surprise down to the infirmary."

"Yes sir. You two help me carry her..."

"Silly medic I can fly down by myself. Duuu. Baby you are acting admiral in my presence okay?"

"Yes of course my love. Be careful." He then gave her a long kiss.

"Make me proud and burn Hayburg to ashes hihihihi." She then flew down the hatch. Everypony followed down. The guards and the medic follows Surprise down the lower levels to the infirmary. Streams returns to the command bridge where the ponies still sit with bloody faces. The dead pony is there as well.

"Make me a favor and clean this mess up will you?" Streams looked annoyed at one of the bloody ponies.

"Yes of course sir." The stallion runs away to get some cleaning gear.

"How long until we are withing firing range?"

"30 meters sir." The navigator responds.

Streams pulls one of the levers that shows at which speed the sub drives. He pulls it to minimum speed. Slowly the submarine starts to move forwards until he pulls it to stop again. The submarine stops. "Go to missile depth!" He pulls another lever and the submarine starts to rise. The window is still under water but the top sub is above the surface. "Bring up a map of Hayburg on one of the screens!"

"Already have one sir." One one of the screens appeared a map of Hayburg.

"How many missiles do we have?"

"Full stock sir!"
