Clandestine is a soldier, one of the best. She's had a hard life and has finally snapped. Shining Armour has put her on 'extended leave' from the royal guard which she isn't too happy about. Unhappy and confused she makes her way to Ponyville where Twilight picks her up at the station and offers her help. Clandestine almost rejects her assistance but since she doesn't have anywhere to stay, accepts. Shortly afterwards, events take a turn for the worst in Ponyville and Clandestine's skills are needed once again. Can these two ponies save each other from their respective fates?

-------------------

Told from Clandestine's perspective using her as a narrator as if she's telling you the story over a fireside. It's an interesting style I'm experimenting with and overall, I'd like to know if that works more than anything else.

Thanks for your interest.
