The Coming Fire Storm

That morning came with the smell of burning wood, Pine tree to be exact. The skies above Ponyville where crimson red with the smoke of the forest fire blocking the sun. it wasn't until around nine, when flocks of birds fell from the sky due to smoke inhalation. There small bodies, smashing through windows and buildings. It was then a large goose shot through Twilight's bedroom window, its body covered in cuts from the glass spewing its blood all over the floor.

"DEAR CELESTA!" Twilight shouted with fear as the bird landed next to her bed.

"Spike, Wake up! Help me take this bird to the bathroom!" Spike woke up in shock to Twilight's screaming. "Wha!... What happened Twil-"

His eyes grew wide as he took noticed of the injured creature in front of him. "Oh, My goodness!!!"

Twilight used her magic to carefully pick up the goose and move it over to her bathroom sink, The goose shaking in fear as shards of glass were able to fall of of it. Spike cleared all of the brushes and bottles off the counter, not caring that they landed all over the floor. Twilight placed the goose on the counter and began using her magic to remove large shards from the poor creatures body. Blood dripped over the edges of the counter and onto the floor, the goose gave one more blood curtailing whale before it slumped dead onto the counter, Twilight could only watch in horror as all life left the goose's eyes. Spike had thrown up last nights dinner all over the blood covered floor as Twilight just stood there in shock staring at the dead goose on here counter.

Mean while...

The fire and smoke that had surrounded the ship had only grew larger by the minute. the lifeless corpse of the Chimera laid there being burnt to a black crisp. Inside the ship,  a group of humans stood in the hangar area suiting up for a scout run. around them were various Mechs, ranging from size and class. A blond haired man clad in standard pilots armor with Dog tags that read "Clark mason" , stood in-front of the group informing them of there mission.

"Listen up, Sigma lance." He said, the group giving him full attention. "Luckily the landing last night was successful, but Intel is not positive if the others made it. We have been given orders to scout the area for the other ships,"

He looked down at his clipboard, noting the mission objectives.

"The lance will compose of 5 scout class mechs, 3 of which are to go separate directions. The other two are to move towards the south were we believe there might be a Combine Outpost,"

He flipped to the next page on the clipboard.

" Note, if there is an outpost, We are not to engage. We are to wait for heaver equipment and mechs too arrive to the position," He turned a the clipboard around at the group revealing a satellite image of the area. He pointed at the forest were the drop ship resided.

"Razor your with me, you and i will go and look for that out post." A bald man sitting on a near by crate nodded. "Razor will bring many pain to those Combine bastards, Yes?" Razor said, with enthusiasm

"Careful Razor, this is a stealth mission, Not a shooting gallery,"

Clark, moved is finger to a set of mountains up north.  "Angel, I want you to go scout these mountains, Oh and please do be careful. one wrong step in a 35 tonne Raven could cause a major avalanche," A brown haired woman nodded, putting her helmet on. "you got it Ace"

He looked over at the remaining two, Doug and Eddie. Doug was a black man with a bulky build, while Eddie was the complete opposite.

" Doug and Eddie, I want you two to split up and cover the areas to the east and west." The two nodded and they headed to there mechs.

"Oh! and one more thing people, the locals around here seem to be aggressive, don't be afraid to use minimum deadly force" Razor looked back at Clark and smirked, "You know what i mean by MINIMUM, Razor. The last thing we need is some more blood splattering on your mech!" Clark shouted at Razor.

Back In Ponyville...

The Ponies of the town gathered in a panicked state in front of the Town Hall. The mayor was scheduled to make an statement on the situation. Twilight desperately galloped through the crowd of Ponies with spike desperately trying to hang on, looking for Rainbowdash and Fluttershy. She had succeeded in finding Rarity, Applejack and PinkiePie, Who were also following her.

"Oh dear, has any one seen Rainbow, or Fluttershy?" Twilight asked with concern. "Ah 'avent seen heads, nor tails of Rainbow Twi!" Apple jack answered as she dodged a stallion that was running the opposite direction.

"I Do hope, Rainbow Dash made it out of Clouds dale intact, I just could not bare to imagine what may have happened to her," Rarity, Said with distress.

"If there's any pony we should be a worryin' about, Its Fluttershy! By the looks of it, them flames aren't too far from Fluttershy's Home!" AppleJack pointed towards the direction of Fluttershy's cottage, were a large tower of smoke had aided in blocking out the morning sun.
