Equestrian Evil

Ch.1 Zeta team

As Bio trotted over to the to the lit area, he got a better look of the perimeter. There were watch towers stationed around, there were also spotlights lighting the area. There were about 11 ponies, 5 of them Bio recognized as the EMRF (Equestria Military Response Force) soldiers, they wore Golden military vests and gold military helmets with Princess Celestia symbol of the sun on them. They had M4 carbines strapped to their backs and standard military pistols to their hind legs. They hung around the barracks, cleaning their weapons and chatting among themselves. The other 6 ponies were lounging around some food court area.

Bio guessed that the 6 ponies were the S.T.A.R.S squad Zeta. He saw that three of the 6 were unicorns and the other three were Pegasus.

One of the unicorns, a mare , was sitting on a chair, she wore a military black vest, a combat knife strapped to her vest, a black Famas with laser sight and silencer strapped to her back and a Mp5 hanging around her side. Her coat was a light blue and mane was black and white striped. She had green eyes and her cutie mark was two swords crossing. The mare was examing a medic box on a table except the medic box was black instead of the traditional white.

Another unicorn, this one a stallion (Okay, the rest of the squad are stallions.) was standing behind another unicorn near the entrance to the forest. His coat color was dark gray, his eyes were teal and his mane was also dark gray but black as well and was short and spiky. He wore a heavy ballistic (urban camouflage.) and carried a matching ballistic helmet and gas mask in one of his hoofs. He had a semi automatic scoped sniper rifle strapped to his back and a 9mm pistol holsted over his right hind leg.

He was talking to the other unicorn who had his back turned to him and who was facing the pitch black entrance to the forest. The other one was tall, his coat was a bright white, his mane was combed back blonde. His eyes were not visible , he wore a pair of black shades (Black sunglasses.) and a small microphone headset. He wore a black military bullet proof vest, with navy blue sleeves, and black military boots on all four hoofs. He had a p99 with laser sights holsted on his right hind leg, and a triple barrel pump action shotgun on his back. His cutie mark was a blue strand of DNA.

Bio then looked to his left, the other three, pegasi, were talking among themselves. One of them was tall and buff, he had a crimson coat, a mane that was red with black highlights. His eyes were crimson, he wore Ironclad obsidian armor with twin shotguns on his back, a desert eagle on his belt and a assault rifle on one side and a sniper rifle on the other, the stallion looked like a one colt army!

The Pegasus next to him was laughing, he had a stark white coat, a black mane fringe cut covering his left eye, which his eyes were blue. He wore a tactical vest, and a strange looking but cool hat on his head. He had a Mp5 strapped to his back and two dual wield 9mm pistols holsted on both his hind legs. His cutie mark was a cloud with winds blowing around it.

The last pegasi stood there with the other two, he had a light blue coat, he had a shaggy brown mane, his eyes were golden. He wore a dark blue hoodie with blue headphones around his neck. He had two moderately sized daggers strapped to his sides and a .44 magnum pistol holsterd on his right hind leg. His cutie mark was a bass clef. This puzzled Bio, this Pegasus looked more like a civilian than a trained solider.

A shadow loomed sunndenly loomed over him, Bio turned around to see a large tough unicorn. It was another stallion, he had a light black coat with a light grey mane with red streaks in it and it was brushed back smoothly. He had dark black red eyes that were covered by his blue shades, he wore a cameo coat with ammo webbing. He had a barett 50 cal. with a heart beat sensor and silencer strapped to his back and a Mp7 that also had a silencer, strapped to his side. His cutie mark was a damaged skull with smoke swirling the eyes. Bio nearly fell over backwards just by looking at him.

“Who in the hay are you?” he said in a serious tone, his eyes narrowing in suspicion.

“Ummm…..uh…..uh..” Bio felt his throat constrained, he couldn’t make a single sound, he was simply scared. He began to feel sweat trickle down the back of his head. The stallion then grabbed him by the neck.

“Answer me! Who are you?! And what’s your business here?!” he yelled, his face showing obvious sighs of anger.

“uh…uh…uhhhh.” Bio was about to fall over.

“Hey what’s going on over here?”. Bio turned his head around, the other squad members walked over to where he was, the one from earlier standing by the pitch black entrance walked up and spoke.

“Skullcrusher stand down.” He said. The stallion holding him let him go and snorted.

“I caught him sneaking around camp Captain Shadow.” He said. The stallion with the black shades know as Captain shadow turned and looked directly at Bio.

“You” he said, pointing at Bio. “State your name and business. He said.

“um, my names is-“ Bio stuttered.

“I said state your name and business!” he said again, his face didn’t change expression, but his voice sounded angry. Sunndenly the Pegasus with the headphones spoke up.

“Hey,Light. Take it easy, your scaring him.” He said, he then trotted over to Bio and extended a hoof.

“My names Blue bass or ‘Ace’ if use nicknames.” Bio took his hoof and he pulled him off the floor.

“You must be the new recruit, right?” he asked in a calming voice, Bio took notice of his unusual golden eyes.

“Y-Yes I’m am.” Bio said, taking a breather. “I’m officer Bio, code named Bio-hazard, (Ha ha ha, you saw what I did there.) I’m been assigned to newly formed S.t.a.r.s squad Zeta, sir.” He said, raising his right hoof in salute. The captain stepped forward.

“Then welcome to Zeta Squad, boy.” He said, his voice showing no sigh of emotion but strict. Bio could feel his glare though his pitch black shades.

“I’m Captain Light Shadow, but you will refer to me as either Captain or by my code name Schemer, understood.” He said.

“Y-Yes sir.” Bio replied nodding.

“Good. Then follow my orders and your first mission will go very smoothly. I have no time for slackers or cowards” he said lastly, he turned away, he turned away and walked right back to his spot facing the entrance the forest entrance.

“Well…..that was awkward.” Said the Pegasus with the black mane fringe cut, he walked to Bio and grabbed his hoof and shook it.

“Hiya! I’m Cloud Chaser, my code name is Chaser.” He said with a grin, the unicorn mare from earlier rolled her eyes at this.

“Since you’re the rookie, I think its only fair to warn you, any mares that we end meeting or saving, will fall head over hoofs for yours truly when they see us in action.” He said smiling.

Bio had a puzzled look on his face, not knowing how to respond to this, Cloud Chaser saw this.

“Oh. Sorry if I got your mind twisted up, what I meant to say was, since you’re the rook, you obviously have no experience dealing with hot mares do you?” he said looking him in the eye. Bio thought for a moment.

“No, I don’t think I do. But there was one time I had a mare friend, but not the relationship that your thinking of.” Said Bio.

“No, don’t you worry, I will be your mentor in all things mares and all.” He said, putting his arm, and with the other gesturing the sky.

“And by the time I’m done, you will be quite the lady’s colt, I guarantee it.” He said confidently with a wink.

“Uuhhhh, Thank you?” Bio said with a weak smile.

“Hey don’t be scared alright, if you got problems of any kind-“ he titled his head in the direction of the mare, who had raised an eye brow at this.

“-and I mean any kind, feel free to talk to me. I got your back.” He said. He patted Bio’s back and walked off, Bio just stood there.

“……what?”
Then the mare walked up to him.

“Hey, don’t sweat it.” She said smiling.
“The ‘Stallion-nova’ is actually a good guy, don’t let his ‘mare lessons’ fool you, he really is a dependable pony.” Bio smiled back.

“Oh yeah he’s a good guy I got that.” He said chuckling.
“But I’m starting to see why they call him ‘Chaser’.” Said Bio.

The mare laughed at that the joke, a tear falling.

“I heard that!.......but good one though.” Yelled cloud chaser.
The mare stopped laughing, wiped the tear off her face and then extended a hoof towards him.

“My names Seabreeze, code named Aqua azul.” She said.
“Bio, code named Bio-hazard.” He said , his cheeks had a tint of redness, the mare was beautiful and a slender form.

“I’m gonna guess that your codename is the same as your real name?” she said with a puzzled grin. Bio face turned red at this and he lowered his head.

“well……….maybe…….yeah it is.” He said in a defeated tone.
“Hey.” She put a hoof on his shoulder.
“It’s okay, your names sound cool, seems like someone was creative.” She said with a cute smile.

“Besides, it explains your cutie mark.” She said pointing at his flank.

“Just what is your special talent?” she asked warmly.

“It’s……It’s……..well, it’s expertise in Virology. I’m really good in a laboratory and an expert in all things about cellular life and diseases’.” He said. Seabreeze looked surprise for a moment.

“You sound more like a scientist than a police officer.” She said.

“Yeah……That’s actually what I wanted to be growing up.” Said Bio, scratching the back of his head.

“So why are you in law enforcement, than in a laboratory or some medical or science division?” she asked, a curious look on her face, Bio looked away.

“It’s…….It’s personnel.” He said. Seabreeze took a step back at this.

“Oh. Didn’t mean to trot in unwanted territory.” She said in an apologetic tone.

“No……its all right, I just don’t want to talk about it.” He said, not wanting to bring up his past.

“It’s okay, you don’t have to if you don’t want to.” she said.
“I better get back to checking the medical supplies before we head out.” She said turning around.

“If you want to talk some more, come find me.” She said this with a wink and walked off. Bio face turned a bright red, sunndenly the stallion from earlier, Skullcrusher loomed over him. Bio quickly backed down from him, but this time Skullcrusher extended a hoof.

“Hey, sorry about earlier, thought maybe you were some kind of crook.” He said. Bio reached out slowly and shook his hoof.

“Look, I’m not gonna hurt you all right, I just thought you were an intruder.” Said Skullcrusher.

“Thank you then, apology accepted.” Said Bio uneasy.
“Thanks. My name is Night Shade, my code name is Skullcrusher. But you already knew that.”

“Bio, code named Bio-hazard.” Replied Bio.
“Nice to meet’cha, you know anything about the mission were about to go on rookie?.”

“just the main things, I don’t really know the details. Just that were going to investigate a series of murders and the disappearances of two police and military S.T.A.R.S teams in the Dark green forest.” said Bio.

“Well did you know that the missing stars agents are the famous Orion and mane 6 squads?” asked Night Shade.

“What!?” said Bio. Orion squad was the most well trained and well equipped spec ops team in Equestria, led by the captain of the royal guard, Shining Armor. They took the most dangerous and top secret missions. There were rumors in the higher ups that just a few months ago before their disappearance, they led a mission into the Zebra nation to rescue Equestrian hostages and to take out hostiles, another rumor said that they even went to a dragon held territory to secure a precious artifact and return it safely back. The fact that they gone missing in this forest raises the question to what was going on. Bio thought this as he looked at the eerie forest. A large group of ravens flew out, as if something had startled them.

*Whistle* “Hey kid you all right?” said the unicorn from earlier that was carrying the ballistic helmet.

“Oh…..yeah. I’m fine.” Said Bio snapping himself out of his trance; he looked the pony in the eyes.

“Names Athus Sledge, but you can call me Aim-bot.” he said nodding his head and extending a hoof. Bio shook it.

“I’m Bio, Bio-hazard is my code name.” he said. Athus pointed towards the forest.

“So you ready for this rook, this mission gonna be dangerous, whatever’s out there seems to have taken out the other two stars squads.” He said, Bio was taken aback by this.

“You don’t know that.” Bio said in a mild tone.
“We can only hope that their alive, besides do you honestly believe that we would need military soldiers as backup if it was only a simple loss of contact.” Athus gestures the EMRF troops.

“well no I guess, but-“
“But nothing, something’s going on, something big. And right now the only one that I got a hunch knows what’s out there is our Captain.” He tilts his head in the direction of Captain Shadow, who was still standing and facing the forest entrance. Bio didn’t know why but the captain gave him an ominous felling of dread.

“What makes you say that?” ask Bio puzzled.
“Did you know that he was the one who personally requested to the princesses’ that a military squad be sent for back up, and yet dose not let out a single detail about why he thinks it is necessary. “ said Athus accusingly.

“Well, I guess that would be unusual. But I’m sure he has a good reason.” He said.

“A reason that he is unwillgly to share with the rest of his own team.” Said Athus annoyed, he then turned around.

“Look rook, I don’t mind going on any mission, and I always follow orders and I would rather die than leave a team member behind. But I do not like going into a mission blind or waiting for something to strike at us when were just sitting around.” He said.

“So just watch your back all right.” He then glanced at the Captain and then at Bio.

“And careful of the captain, I don’t trust him.” With that he trotted off.

“Hey, you the rookie?” a strong loud voice came from behind Bio startled him. It was the one-coat army stallion he saw earlier, he walked right up to him extended a hoof.

“Uh yeah. My names Bio.” He said, shaking the large stallion hoof.

“Don’t be scared recruit, I don’t bite………..much.” he said grinning.

“Umm what?” Bio said surprised.
“Get serious recruit! We don’t have time to lolly gag, if you going on this mission, you got to be ready! You got to be sharp!” he leaned closer, towering over him.

“You got to bring your A game! You got to be the meanest of the mean! And you got to be so tough that you will show those sons of bitch’s out there not to mess with us!!” he yelled. Bio shrank from this , he sounded like his drill sergeant, but louder.

“Y-y-yes sir.” He said. The stallion frowned.

“I can’t hear you recruit!” He yelled.
“Yes sir!” Bio shouted.

“Louder!!” He boomed.

“YES SIR!!!” Bio Shouted.
“Great! Names Crimson Wing by the way, nice to meet you.” His voice went from a loud booming yell to a quiet normal tone.

“Thanks. Nice to meet you too.” Bio said confused, he wondered if there was anything wrong with him.

“All right, as you were solider. See you in a few for the mission briefing.” He said, he turned around and trotted off, his wings folded back.

Bio turned back to Night Shade who was also dumb founded by Crimson Wing.

“Well…….He’s impressive I ‘a give him that.” He said with a chuckle.

“I ‘a see you around.” He said and walked away.
Bio was all alone again. He turned around to see Blue ‘Ace’ Bass. He was standing there with a friendly smile on his face.

“Hey you okay?” he asked.

“Yeah I’m fine.” Bio then trotted over to Ace.
“That’s good, follow me, the briefing going to start soon.” said Blue Bass.

“All right.” Bio followed him to another area of the perimeter, this one had rows of chairs. They sat down alongside the rest of Zeta squad, except for Captain Shadow or schemer who was standing in front on the stage addressing the troops. The EMRF soldiers took seats next to Zeta team.

Captain Shadow began briefing the everyone on the mission, the investigation of the murders, and the disappearances of the other stars agents.

Bio leaned over to Ace.
“Hey umm Ace?” he asked.
“What is it Bio?” Asked Ace.
“Why are you here really?” he asked.
“What do you mean?” Ace said.
“You look like a civilian than an actual trained solider.” He said. Ace looked back at Bio. “Yeah,…I’m actually a mucsian.

“Really?” he said, then sunndenly a memory came rushing in.

“Wait…..you don’t happen to be the Equestrian famous Singer and DJ, Blue Bass, the one who threw the that awesome party in Ponyville?” Bio asked with a excited look. Ace smiled.

“Yep, that’s me.” Bio’s smile turned into a large grin.(he nearly did a fangirl squeal.)

“Dear Celestia, I can’t believe your actually here! Everyone knows your awesome tunes!” said Bio.

“What are you doing in a military police force squad.” He then asked, Ace smile faded away.

“I’m looking for someone. Someone close to me.” He pulled out a picture out of his hoodie and handed to Bio. Bio looked at it, it was a picture of Ace on a cloud laughing, on top of him was another Pegasus, it was a mare with a rainbow colored mane and tail, her coat was light blue and her eyes were magenta. She was hugging Ace around the neck and nudging her head right next to his. Bio recognized the mare from the pic anywhere, it was Rainbow Dash.

“Wait, you know Rainbow Dash?” asked Bio. Ace nodded his head.

“Yeah, she and I …… well I don’t know if I can explain it to you but-“

“Your in love with her. Aren’t you?” said Bio. Ace looked at him with a grin.

“Was I that obvious.” He said.

“Wait, isn’t she a member of mane 6-“ Bio caught himself.

“You’re here for her.” Bio then exclaimed.

“Yes I am. I don’t care what anybody else says, she’s still alive, I just feel it. And I’m not leaving or resting till I found her safe and sound.” He said.

“Did you just sing that in a tune? Bio asked smiling.

“Yeah I did.” He said
“Your really good.” Said Bio.

“Thanks.” Said Ace. Bio then stood up.
“And don’t worry , if she’s still alive and she will be, we will bring her back!” Bio said confidently a fire in his eyes.

“Thanks again, and she is still alive, I can feel it.” Said Ace. Bio sat back down.

“You mean like a special connection type thing.” He said.
“Yeah, something like that.” Ace said nodding. Then Captain Shadow’s voice boomed once again.

“Remember, key personnel to locate are the following, Shining armor of Orion team and Twilight Sparkle of-“ Bio jumped at hearing the latter.

“Wait did you just say Twilight Sparkle!?” Bio asked loudly.

Everyone there turned their heads towards him. Bio felt sweat trickle down his face. The Captain raised an eyebrow.

“Yes, I do believe I said the name Twilight Sparkle. Is there a problem?” he asked.

Bio shrank back down into his seat.
“N-No sir.” He said. Captain Shadow then looked away.

“Then without further interruption, get ready to move out.” He said with a salute. The squad members and Emrf soldiers did the same.
“Hey rookie you all right?” asked Cloud Chaser walking over to him.
“Hey Bio what’s going on?” Ace said looking at Bio who remained frozen in his seat, wide eyed.

A thousand questions swarmed though Bio’s mind. What was Twilight doing out here?! Was she all right!? Had she been harmed?! These thoughts buzzed though his head as he joined the Squad. What’s is going on here!?
