The team geared up, before melting into the Everfree forest like ghosts. The ghili suits exploited the loophole around the defences that the Caribou had implemented, a magical detection field surrounding this event that would detect magical disguises, but not conventional ones. The creatures of the Everfree steered well clear of the small band of intrepid commandos, namely because their fearless field commander was the Lord of Chaos, Discord himself. As they drew close to the edge of the forest, they could see a stage being erected. Discord signaled a halt, and for the pegasi to take to the treetops to continue scouting. Meanwhile Discord began working on a plan of attack.

"It will be difficult to snatch her from the stage as it is going to be caged in, as well as heavily guarded... and they know that the time when you are moving a hostage it the most vulnerable. We need to find where she is being held, then obliterate this stage." Discord mused.

"We can blow the living fuck out of the stage." Shellshock said with a devious grin, motioning to himself and Firecracker.

Their pegasi returned, gliding silently down, "Hey Discord, we found where she is being held." Overwatch said as soon as he landed.

"Good." Discord said. And with that the plan began to take shape. Flutters is being held in a cell in the center of town. A total of 3 layers of defense surround it. The inner layer made up of eight elite Caribou guards, the second made out of former Royal guardsmen, and the first layer made of a magical shield. To distract the guards and shatter the shield, a set of simultaneous magical explosions would be created and detonated. a sneak attack from both the air and ground would come, the pegasi dive bombing and providing covering fire with self-loading enchanted crossbows, and the earth ponies plus Discord would slam into the guards like a tornado. Once the Unicorns were done with their explosive shenanigans, they would join in the carnage, attacking the Guards that had turned their backs to face the spearpoint of Discord and the earth ponies.

They broke from their powwow and took up positions, Discord and the rest of his Havoc Horses shed their Ghilli suits and slipped into the town, flitting from shadow to shadow, their uniforms melding with the darkness. Several Caribou patrols passed, but no one noticed anything until suddenly, BOOOOOOM! The stage went up in a mushroom cloud of smoke and flame.

"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?" Screamed the on-site Caribou commander. A Lieutenant named Sigulf.

"SIR, THE SHIELD WAS KNOCKED OUT" A unicorn said, shouting over the noise of the panicked townsponies.

"GOD DAMN IT TO HELL, ITS THAT GOD FUCKING DAMNED REBELLION." Sigulf shouted, before he heard different screams, one that rose over the screams of panic, it was the sound of ponies and caribou being slaughtered, there was the ringing of steel and the sounds of more explosions outside. Suddenly the door to the office opened, and a caribou soldier stumbled through, gripping his arm, trying to stem the flow of blood from a deep gash.

"S....S......S......Sir, they got Flutterslut, we couldn't stop them, they had a D.....D.....D.....Demon that cut through our men like butter. It was a giant snakelike thing, Never seen anything like it sir. But when it grabbed Flutterslut it yelled, 'MINE' before fading away with her and some sort of shadow pony soldiers." The soldier started to slump to the ground, about to pass out from lack of blood.

"SHITFUCKS." was the last shout heard by the team as they fled into the night sky towards the safety of the Everfree.
