"Hiya losers! Everything absolutely DANDY here today! Oh, bless the Stars for our first run of luck in Luna knows how long. Earlier today we managed to capture a supply caravan the Revenants were transporting, get this, RIGHT by the castle! I guess they hadn't been told about the 'Yellow Terror' as we heard them affectionately call poor Flutters. I think it took probably thirteen seconds before she just chewed through them. Now that Discords awake, she is in a markedly better mood, and seems like she likes the opportunity to, quite literally, cut loose. In the three carts we took, one was full of Damascus steel, one was full of carrots and water and all kinds of well needed food, and the last one? My favorite, booze, cigars, and a butt load of chain-mail rolls. Rarity had a heyday with that one. Discord got up immediately after seeing the steel, and started making us weapons that suited us perfectly, as well as adding draconequus runes, which are whats all over my sword. He made Fluttershy a new wing, and sharpened it, as well as made matching armor for her other one. I got a new sword, and some bad ass spikes for my forelegs. Twi got a broadsword that grew sharper and heavier as she put more magic into it, AJ got a mace, Rainbow also got wingblades, as well as two blades for her forelegs, so she can just speed past and lay waste. Pinkie, down to her last six clones, got nun-chuck with spikes, and a new party cannon. For Rarity, a scimitar, like the ones from Saddle Arabia, and hundreds of throwing knives for Sunset. Spike got armor, and Discord made himself a wicked long katana. Who knew the god of chaos was a blacksmith? Huh. OH! and before i forget, look what we caught! A siren trying to make her escape from the mirror. Say 'hi' Sonata."

"Hi..."

"Oh don't sound so sad, you're making me feel bad. Here, have a taco while we wait for Twi and Sunset to get back from trying to find Zecora. Eh, things are going great, for the most part, all things considered. Discord told us he was the one who aged Spike, so he wouldn't get eaten, and even started trying to contact the Princesses. I don't think he's all bad, just misguided. On the plus, he's fought in every Equestrian war since the Beginning, so he's been helping us fight more efficiently. We have an estimated body count of somewhere in the vicinity of six thousand, out of what he presumes is well over a hundred thousand, still, every bit counts right?"

-BOOM-

"DISCORD! NO MORE BUCKING EXPLOSIONS IN THE CASTLE! BLOW THEM UP! NOT US! YOU LITTLE FOAL, GROW UP! I apologize about that, Discord's still adjusting to not pranking us. Blew up the toilet last time i tried to use it. Yes, it was funny, but not at the time, and don't get me started on the spiders. We thought Rarity was going to pass out, and I'm still finding little cotton candy creepy crawlies in my mane. Oh well, i guess it comes with the territory. Oh and new revelation from Twilight Sparklebutt herself, the Iris Cams can read our thoughts. Under any other circumstances, it would be kinky, although with this new war going on, and the fact that Twi is already spoken for doesn't help anything, although Sunset has a nice flank. And smells nice, too. Oh buck. Um, I'm gonna have to erase that part. Ignore that. Buck me. Wait, well I'll be, Twi's back. Oh. Zecora went back to the Zebra lands to help her people. Good on her, protect your people. Oh, let me switch to Iris Cam, Twi has stuff to say. Well dear viewer, shall we tune in? ALLON-Z!"

"Alright girls, in a few days, we are going to Canterlot. Celestia and Luna are both safe, although Celestia's magical aura is not going to let us to teleport there, so we are going to have to carve a path through whatever blocks our path. Rainbow and Fluttershy will go first as they are the fastest and most maneuverable, and the rest of us will follow behind. Sound like a- What's that?" Twilight halted her train of thought as she caught sight of Sonata Dusk contentedly munching at tacos in the cage she was caught in. "Dusty? Why is a Dazzling in my castle?"

"Well," Dusty begins hesitantly, "She tried to sneak through the mirror, but I snatched her and put her in a cage and gave her tacos. Can we keep her? Please? I'm pretty sure she's housebroken. You are right?" Sonata replied with an enthusiastic nod, not entirely sure what was going on. "See! So please? Can we?"

"We aren't going to keep Sonata as a pet. But maybe she can help us. What do you say? Want a chance to redeem yourself?" Sonata again replied with a curt nod, still devouring the tacos in front of her.

"Well then One more for the merry band it is!" Exclaimed discord sarcastically, "But really, we really should get some rest and prepare for our little mission, don't you agree Colonel Sparkle?" And with a snap of his fingers, Twilight was in an officers uniform, complete with medals of Discord's face.

"Alright then," she said strongly, ripping the uniform away, "Let's get down to business."
