PONIES IN ARMS-3. MARECENARIES

DATE- CLASSIFIED
TIME- IRRELEVANT

Me and Harmony made it back to where every filly was, and woke those who were asleep up, and gathered them all together. "OK MARES, AND FILLIES WE HAVE A MEETING WITH THE LEADER OF THE GROUP IN A DAY. GREYHOOF HAS BEEN INVITED TO JOIN THE MEETING AS WELL. FOR TONIGHT YOU ALL CAN DO ANYTHING YOU LIKE, BUT DO REMEMBER THE MEETING IS IN A DAY OK, SO DONT GET TOO WASTED." The group all went on their own ways after we all had the meeting. Me and Harmony went to the bar to enjoy some free time away from the mission, and other ponies. We weren’t quite ready for any company with any colts, and made it quite clear as I told Joe to tell all colts that try to hit on us to be kicked out. Joe agreed seeing as I was the daughter of the mayor, and he had known me since we were both foals.

After a while of having a few drinks me and Harmony were already all over each other, kissing, hugging, and making out. The bar was all eyes on us, and we enjoyed it to be honest. We left the bar after a while, and went back to my house for some uhhhmm fun. We woke up in the morning and made some breakfast after our long, hot, and passionate night and then went to gather supplies for anything that we may have needed. Harmony went to the weapons store, while I went to the food store I sent every pony else on their own way for supplies, and other things as well.

I along with the rest of my squad went once more to meet with Grey Hoof again. He wanted to meet my unit before we all were given our duties. "Well then, you all live up to your reputations as I knew you would. Major Read has trained you all perfectly, and the fact that you have a few of your own armored ponies, this should be an interesting meeting. The leader has told me that she is also bringing her own unit as well, and has told me that they will integrate with you all. If any pony has any questions please feel free to ask, I may be in the n.c.e as are all of you, but we aren’t in a military per say, so free speech is welcome. I will be traveling with you all so this is kind of a getting to know you meeting. The fact that the leader has agreed to allow me to join you on any and all missions is a welcome event, and I will be integrating my own troops into your group as well. With such responsibility comes new rank structure. BOTH RUBY AND HARMONY PLEASE COME HERE. THIS IS A REQUEST BY MAJOR READ HIMSELF, AND I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE WITH HIS CHOICE. BY THE NAME OF THE N.C.E YOU 2 MARES ARE HEREBY PROMOTED TO THE RANK OF MAJOR IN THE N.C.E ARMY.

Both me and Harmony were looking at our new group of ponies that were all lined up, and in formation waiting for us to lead them into whatever situations we would end up in, and we felt a wave of confidence wash over us. We were the leaders of our own growing company, and soon almost a double company sized element. I would put Harmony in charge of one company, and I would take charge of the other, Grey Hoof would be the commander as well seeing as he was the one who had set all of this up for us. We both looked at our unit, and gave the first of many orders we would give as commanders. "COMPANY,, DISMISSED" the unit all left for their own things to do for a bit before we were to meet with the pony who wrote the note that had set all of this into motion. The meeting was supposed to be later on in the evening so we all could be relaxed, and in a mood to get to know each other, seeing as this was a bunch of mares, and fillies meeting and not a bunch of colts, there were some things that were different, and just meeting in a packed, and noisy bar wasn’t going to cut it. We instead were going to have the meeting at town hall with all top ranking officials from town present so they all knew just who this group was that was entering their town. We were going to be meeting at 1700 for a nice dinner, and then get down to the actual meeting itself, it was now almost 1300.

Grey Hoof was walking along side my dad as they chatted about the strategic advantage of having a state that was in the control of the n.c.e, and the fact that it would eventually play a huge role in upcoming inevitable events. "yeh I was here when the town was dug into the side of that hill, the relentless bombing of the e.l.f was getting to be too much for any of us to handle, and Stable Tech were in no hurry to help us out, so the town gathered one day and looked at the hill as a possible shelter from the bombings. No pony had any clue that it would eventually become a whole town, it started out as just a simple shelter, but now look at it, quite impressive if I do say so." My father had helped in some of the construction of the town, and was elected mayor after the death of the former mayor in a bombing raid, and so far he hadn’t lost a single towns pony, and wasn’t about to. "Not on my watch" he would always say to the ponies in town. They were just killing time as was the rest of my company until we were to meet for our get together. Me and Harmony had gone to the pet store to get a puppy, we figured having a dog would help us in times of sadness, and loneliness, and besides having a dog would also come in handy for anytime we would have to make a camp for a night, I mean if a dog barks at something in the night every pony is going to want to know why, and be alerted to something in the dark. We picked a slightly older dog, almost the same age as applejacks old dog that died in the first war, and we quickly got to work training it in the 2 remaining hours we had left, after all it was only 1500 by now. The day was taking its sweet time, and to be honest we were all board as hell, there was nothing any of us could do in 2 hours, me and Harmony couldn’t even have any fun in that time, it would be just a waste of energy, and not worth it.
