The New Lunar Republic- Rebellion of The Solars

They are silent as they go on, the only sound being hoof steps against the ground. Once they could see the port Silver lead them behind a huge boulder. "So how do we approach them?" Sky whispered.

"Hmm" She peeks out, looking for any openings. After a little bit she gets back behind the boulder. "Aerith will distract the back door guards, then we rush in."

"Alright," she agreed to this, looking over at Aerith, "want any guards to accompany you?" Aerith grins at Sky, then zooms off towards the port's back door, dodging spotlights on her way. Sky just stares, confused by her ability to accomplish such things. Silver motions for Sky and the stallions to follow her as she begins making her way towards the landing port. Aerith had already led the two guards away from the metal back door. Sky brings her head low to the ground, watching her surroundings. Silver slowly leads them through a hallway, dodging guards as they went. They soon come to pass an open room, and it seemed empty.

The empty room was the control room, odd that it would be so unguarded. Silver quickly sits down at the main computer's chair and begins tapping away, the stallions take positions by the doors encase anypony came in. Sky does the same, scanning several security cameras and such. She points one out with her hoof, "Silver, look, I found where the guards are..." the screen showed small rows of the Solar Empire's own army. One stallion slowly walked up and down the isle, looking them over. "Ah perfect, thank you, your highness" She taps a button, locking the door to the room the guards were in.

They don't seem to notice, and what seemed to be their leader continued to walk up and down the isle of soldiers. She giggles softly. "Now to round up the few guards that weren't in there." Sky scanned the other screens. Few guards where around, save for few guarding a giant steel door. She swiped her hoof over it, "There they are. What do you think is in there?"

She shrugs. "I have no idea, nopony's allowed in there except Moon and well, I'd suppose the Princesses" A mischievous grin appears on her face. "Let's go find out."

She frowns, "No, I mean, couldn't they use the room for something else? Like a weapon? Hopefully whatever was in there before isn't of any use to them..."

"Hmm, alright Princess, but we still need to go round up the guards." She nods, "Should I send a few of our own?"

"Do as you wish, princess, I'll send-" She points at four stallions. "-you four to go round up the remainder, use lethal force if needed." The stallions nod and dash off, heading to scour the facility for any left over guards. At that moment, though, a cheer rises from the large crowd of soldiers on the screen. No sound of course, but they all had their weapons raised high in the air, "Uh-oh...." Sky glanced at Silver.

Silver watches the screen intently, her mind spinning. "Damn, damn damn..." She points at the remaining stallions. "You go get the boys I just sent out, we'll need them back here."

"I can help hold them back," Sky stated, her eyes burning with fury as she stared up at the screen, her head to her chest and ears pinned tightly to her skull. Silver grins and nods in approval. "Good good, but don't try any heroics, your more important than the mission." She stiffly walks to the door, "alright, then," she glances back at Silver, "Stay here and keep watch." The alicorn then walks out the door, a small army of stallions trailing behind. Silver keeps a close eye on the cameras as Sky walks out the door, the stallions that had been in the room following her out.

Sky dashed behind a corner, and all of them stood close to the wall. She glanced around the corner to see a large steel door, guarded by two soldiers dressed in bright colored garments. Sky motioned for one of the bat pony stallions to come forward. The princess flew high into the air and charged her horn, and the bat pony held a knife in his mouth. She cast an anti-gravity spell, and they where now standing on the ceiling, crawling with chests close to the 'ground' to not be seen. The two stallions guarding the door luckily didn't see the princess or her troops slowly crawling their way towards them due to them being lost in an argument about a bet they had made on something.

Sky charged her horn, and a small aura formed around them, yet they never noticed. In a second, though, they where both knocked out. The alicorn brought the Lunar ponies and herself to the ground and slowly began to examine the lock. She put her ear to it. Since the colonies were still in their early development stage, the lock was nothing difficult, a couple twists here and there inside it and it would open, not a problem for a magic user.

The princess creaked open the door slowly.

From the small crack that the Princess had opened between the door and the door frame, she could see a neon green light flooding the otherwise dark room. She opened it fully and began to slowly walk into the room, her ears alert. A few steps inside the room and suddenly spotlights flash on, blinding her momentarily. Once her eyesight returned, she could the room was lined with computers, Lines of data racing across their monitors. In the middle of the room was a large green cylinder.

The group of stallions followed her in. Once inside, they began to scan the computers. None of the stallions could figure out what the strings of numbers running across the screens meant. Sky lit her horn in a translation spell, and cast it at one of the computers. The numbers on the screen slowly turned to letters, it was a jumbled mess but Sky could make something out about something vitals.

"What does it say?" one of the stallions asked.

"It's...a heart beat?" she looked at the screen, it was pulsing in a rhythmic beat. One of the stallions taps on the green glass with his sword. The screen gave a visible wave of electric shock across it's surface in defense of the attack. Sky pulled his sword back before it could reach the cold metal. The stallion mumbles and an apology and moves away. The princess walks around and looks at the other computers. They seemed to be measuring the body functions of an unknown life. The stallions roam about, securing the room.

She glances up at the glowing light in the middle of the room, "What do you think that is?" One of the stallions walks over, the medic of the group. "Your highness, I believe it is a holding cell of some sort"

"Hm...." the princess walked over to what looked like the control panel at the head of the room. See flicked some switches, and the light turned transparent so they could see what was inside. Inside the tube a large creature could be seen, it had spikes running down it's spine and along the back's of it's arms. The rest of it's body looked to be made of blue greyish scales. Sky walked over to the tube, examining it.

Moonsteel The Paragon of  is online.

It seemed to be a good four inches taller than Sky, though it was hard to tell from just looking at it in it's tube. "What...is it?" she questioned. The stallions all shrug, looking at one another. It twitched. Skywriter backed up slowly. The creature begins to twitch more, seeming to wake up, computer screens start flashing red. The alicorn ran to the controls. They had seemed to be disabled, and the flashing was to surely attract the solars. Her loyal stallions drew their swords, unknowing what was to happen. Suddenly the door bursts open, a small squad of Solars rushing into the room.
