Chapters When Things Were Just Settling Down
Scout lifted his head and sniffed the air of oil, smoke, fires, and robot parts. "At least those robots got owned! Now I can go back to see my ma. I'm tired of this."
Scout strolled into the Upgrade room/Respawn Room in Coaltown. Heavy was singing a Russian tune, as he packed Sandvich into a lunchbox. Medic was feeding his pet bird, Archimedes. Engineer walked around the room, looking for a blueprint necessary for building a dispenser. Demo carried a crate full of scrumpy.
"Hello, little baby scout!" Heavy said in a loud, rough, voice.
"Good." Scout said in a plain voice.
"Vat is wrong, Scout?" Medic said.
"Well..." Scout said, then stopped abruptly. He then ran outside, passing by soldier.
"Where are you going, little maggot?" Soldier shouted. Scout just kept running towards the area where the battle against the robots were taken place.
"Vat is wrong with ze scout?" Medic asked.
"Err... homesick?" Soldier said. Engineer just had a painful thought and found his blueprint.
Demoman just said, "Maybe he wants to see his ma'." before putting the crate on the ground. Engineer walked next to the bomb deployment area.
He sighed, thinking "If Scout wants his ma, well, ah', good luck to good ol' Scout."
Meanwhile... At Canterlot
Princess Celestia was happily sitting on her throne, guarded by two solar guards, one on each side of the throne. She then got up and looked out the window. A Unicorn was walking around, and picked up a stone with green magic covering her horn.
"Is that... A changeling?" It faced at Celestia and shot the stone at Celestia with a grin on its face. Princess Celestia took immediate action, and using her magic, levitated the rock with her magic to stop the rock in midair from breaking the window and . But by then, it was gone. She then turned to the solar guards standing by her throne, discovering that they were gone.
A solar guard then bursted in. "Princess Celestia! There has been reports of changelings attacking civilians on their own!" Princess Celestia nodded, and dismissed the guard. Suddenly, some thumps was heard, and a snap of a spine echoed around the entire castle.
"Got it, Princess Celestia!" the solar guard said painfully. The guard then walk away with pain in his back. She then, was first scared when she heard the solar guard's spine crack, then calmed down. She took a deep breath, and started to use her magic to preform a teleport spell.
Back in Coaltown, somewhere in the USA deserts...
Scout was sitting on the wooden edge of the building that faced the spot where the tank carrier was originally there.
"My Ma.." he said silently. He then heard a ringing, and a bright yellowish light/aura started to enclose Scout in this aura.
"What the fu-" Scout said, interrupted by a pop which teleported him to Equestria.
Scout, Soldier, Demo, Heavy,Medic and Engineer suddenly appeared in the throne room with their weapons, backpacks, and most importantly, hats. Princess Celestia sat at her throne, satisfied of what she has done.
"What the bloody hell?" Demo shouted.
"Dear GOD, a pastrel colored pony!" Soldier shouted.
"Vat are you?" Medic asked with curiosity.
"I am Princess Celestia, ruler of Equestria." Princess Celestia said calmly.
"What is reason why we here?" Heavy said in an annoyed tone.
"Well, you see, there is a creature in our land called:Changelings. They have been spotted in Canterlot, the city you are now in, and are attacking the public. One managed to snap the spine of one of my guards."
"What are these... Changelings, Princess?" Engineer asked as Soldier sat in the corner of the room, sucking his thumb.
"Da, what engi said." Heavy nodded as he said.
"These Changelings are creatures that look like us ponies-"
Soldier then shouted out,"You are all Hippies!"
Princess Celestia looked annoyed, and said to the other mercs, "Is he like that?"
"Yes." Demo said.
Celestia exchanged looks with Demo, and then continued,
"But are black, rotting, versions like us. They can change their appearance of anypony-"
"ANYPONY?!? YOU'RE HIPPIES!" Solider shouted.
Celestia rolled her eyes, and continued,"And will sneak up on you. These Changelings feed on love to gain strength, and are likely to take control of Equestria, which they attempted before.
"They sound like that spooky creep on our team." Scout said. "The spy. But he isn't here right know." Celestia nodded.
"Well, so what are we bloody waiting fer?" Demoman said,"Lets do this!"
"What are those things?" Celestia said, pointing to the guns, backpacks, and hats of all kinds, including some strange hats.
"Oh, that is our gear." said Engineer. Celestia stared at the items, especially the strange hats, one of them a strange helmet.
"Me name's Demoman, need a big explosion, I'm happy to help." Demoman said.
"I am Heavy Weapons Guy. This is Sasha." Heavy said, picking up his prized minigun up.
"I'm the Engineer, ah' build sentries and dispensers to solve all yer' practical problems." Engineer said.
"I'm Scout, nothing else." Scout said in a fuss. Scout just want to see his mother.
"I am ze medic, I can heal your wounds." said Medic, raising his strange medigun.
"And thats, ah.. soldier." Engineer said. "He's been through lots."Celestia now seemed to understand why Soldier was calling her a Hippie, or anything of that matter.
"You will be receiving help from my sister, Princess Luna, and Twilight Sparkle and her friends." Celestia said. "Take the train down to Ponyville, were you will find Twilight Sparkle and her friends."
The mercs left,nodding their heads at Celestia, then carrying their weapons, storing their hats in their backpacks, and Heavy carrying Soldier, left the castle.
Meanwhile...
"I cannot understand, sister, about these brutes." Princess Luna said.
"They're here to help." Celestia said, trying to assure her sister that its safe with mercs roaming about.
"At least you know them?" Luna said.
"Yes, and you are supposed to help them." Celestia said, with a grin on her face.
"WHAT? THOSE BRUTES?" Princess Luna said in disagreement.
"They'll need all the help they can get." Celestia said.
The RED Team sat on the seats of the train, waiting it to move. They received many stares from other ponies on the train.
"Agh, when will this bloody train move?" Demo said.
"Ze inhabitants of zis world has almost no technolgy."
"Da. Train is slow."
The train started moving out of the station, and started climbing down the mountain tracks. It clanked and rattled, steam puffing out. Suddenly, the RED team started hearing the buzzing of many wings.
"Vat was zat?"
"Ah don't know, doc."
"Ahh, Creep!" Demo shouted. He pointed to a group of tough-looking changelings. The Ponies on board the train screamed, panicked, and started hiding.
"Well, lets kick their ass back to where they came from men!" Soldier said proudly. He pointed his Direct Hit, a rocket launcher for skilled, sharpshooter soldiers, and fired. The rocket, making impact with one of the changelings, exploded. Changeling parts flew everywhere.
"We must kill cowards!"
"Giddy-up!"
"Move, Schnell!"
Heavy started firing minigun rounds at the changelings, killing two of them. Engineer shot down a changeling with the Rescue Ranger. Medic, healed Heavy with a Strange Medigun.
"Incoming!" Demo shouted, pointing at the rest of the changelings. They started diving at the Mercs. Scout then saw his opportunity other than firing a pistol at the changelings.
"Batter Up!" Scout said, making his batter stance. A changeling dived for Scout, and was about to slam into Scout's legs.
"Doink!!"
SPLAT!
The changeling's head got smashed into many pieces. Engineer whacked a changeling unconscious with his Jag. The train started moving faster for some reason.
"What makes train go fast suddenly?"Heavy said.
Soldier shrugged, and knocked a charging changeling onto the floor.
"Get a Haircut,Hippe!"
Smack!
Splat!
Sploosh!
"Arrgh!"
Soldier started blankly at the dead changeling, which, head was smashed, blood pouring out.
"INCOMING!!"
Medic stabbed a changeling with his ubersaw, and looked out the broken train window.
"There are no more changelings left!"
Demo looked behind Medic.
"SPY!"
One changeling managed to disguise as a normal pony, and sneaked up behind medic, and was about to tackle medic.
BANG!
You. All. Suck!
"Grease Monkey, put a dispenser here!"
"Yeah!"
"What the bloody hell was that?!?" Demo asked.
Medic just shrugged, and got out some experimental tubes from his huge backpack.
"These Specimens are vat I need for my experiments."
The ponies in the same cab as the Red Mercs fled to other cabs, and now just slowly walked back to their seats, avoiding the bodies and blood on the floor.
Soldier just grumbled at the sight of more "Pastrel colored" ponies, and sucked in the glorious health from the dispenser.
"Well, that went we-" Scout said before hearing an explosion.
Ponies screamed the second time, and one said,
"The train is going to explode!"
Scout sighed, and replied,
"Wat Now?"
Scout stuck his head out the broken window.
"Yo, the engine's burning!"
The Red mercs ran to the front of the train, and tried to put out the fire.
Demo looked ahead, and saw the Ponyville train station, 60 yards away.
"Incoming!"
The other Red mercs looked ahead , and Demo pulled out his Scottish Resistance.
"Move!"
He launched stickybombs on the burning engine, and ran towards the other Red Mercs.
Demo waited.
"Ka-"
Beep!
"BOOM!"
Ka-BOOM!
The engine exploded,the rubble flying everywhere.
Soldier got smacked in the stomach with some rubble.
"Urk!"
Engineer got an idea, and stuck the rubble in the wheels.
The wheels got jammed, and screeched so loud, everyone and everypony covered their ears.
The train stopped a few yards ahead of the station.
"Whew, that was close!" Engineer said.
The ponies got off, as the Red mercs headed to the front of the train.
Seeing the remains of the engine, they shuffled through the rubble.
All they found was one dead, burned, conductor pony.
Suddenly, they heard some clopping behind them.
"Hello?"
Soldier was the first to turn around, and shouted.
"AHH! A purple pastrel pony!"
Meeting the mane 6 Pastrel ponies! AHHH!
"AHHHH!"
"Calm down, patriot!"
"Um..."
Soldier screamed in agony, at the sight of more, technicolor horses.
"Baby Soldier stop shouting! You hurt ears!"
Engineer and Medic just facepalmed, while Scout just stood there, completely into the soldier-yelling thing, while pondering about his mom.
"I really miss my ma."
Meanwhile...
Twilight Sparkle just stood there, watching a bidepedal in a Red Neat uniform screaming. Mean while, a tall, huge human kept trying to shush down the uniform human.
"Hello? Umm..."
"Well, these brutes are certinally loud!" Rarity said.
Fluttershy screamed, and hid behind a tree occupied by a family of squirrels.
Pinkie Pie hopped up to Demo, and said
"HI!"
"AGHH!"
Demo shouted and ran around drunkily, as Heavy managed to shush the Soldier.
"Ahh... fine heavy! Just get your communist ass out of my face!"
Applejack trotted towards Engineer.
"Well, howdy!'
"Heh.."
Engineer grinned at the sound of his native accent/language.
"Ahem!"
Everyone/Everypony snapped to attention.
"Who is Miss Twilight and her sissy friends?"
"Umm...you're standing in front of them...."
"Twilight!"
"What?"
"Me and my men has been sent here by your ruler, Princess Celestia! She wants us, with your sissy help, to get rid of these changelings."
Soldier then thinks of many ugly pastrel spy ponies.
"Dammit!"
"So you're the ruffians that Twilight said was coming to take out the disgusting, horrifying, changelings."
"I am not a ruffian! I am a man of WAR!!"
Scout facepalms, and sighs,
"Yes, we are. And were mercs."
"Tough game, yea?"
Rainbow Dash says as she zooms up and hovers in front of scout tauntingly.
Scout glares, and pulled out his Boston Basher.
"Scout, NO!"
Medic rushes up and pulls Scout back.
"Vat are you doing? Trying to hurt a feline?
"I'm gonna show that little freak what it deserves!"
Twilight groans, and cast a spell to hold Scout and Rainbow Dash in place.
"STOP! We aren't enemies which each other!"
Twilight then lets go of Scout and Dash, both which glare at each other.
"Lets just get to the point! Follow me!"
Twilight then leads the mercs and the ponies back to the crystal castle at the edge of Ponyville.
Meanwhile...
A Changeling, disguised as a pegasus pony named Cloud Dasher, watches as the mercs and mane 6 travel to the crystal castle. He smirks, and flies northeast to the northeast edge of Equestria.
He lands, and undisguised in front to the entrance to the changeling hive with a crunch.
"This will be good for the queen..."
Two changeling guards salute him as he walked in.
After a long series of chambers, he finally came upon the Queen's Throne Room.
"My Queen.."
"Yes?"
"I have information about the 'people' that took down the attack on the train."
Meanwhile, Back in Ponyville...
"What the fack are we doing here?"
"Its Twilights home."
"Wait, we never got to introduce ourselves, ma'am."
Twilight nodded,
"You already know me. That there is Pinkie Pie-"
"Hi!"
"- and over there is Applejack, next to her is Rainbow Dash-"
"Heh."
"- Next to me is Rarity, and Fluttershy."
Fluttershy whimpers, and hides behind Rarity.
"Vats wrong?"
"nothing."
"My names' the Engineer."
"Howdy, Engineer."
"The one with the helmet is Soldier-"
"Arrgh..."
"The person with one eye is demoman."
"Aye!"
"This is scout."
Scout sighs.
"That is heavy, the one that is bald."
"My name is Heavy Weapons Guy. And this is Sasha."
He picks up his prized minigun, as most of the ponies gape at the size and weight of the minigun.
"Whoa, thats cool."
"The one with the glasses is medic."
Fluttershy whimpers as Medic tries to calm her.
"its Ok. I have pet doves back were I came from."
Fluttershy looked up at him, and smiled.
"Err.. its nice meeting you, Engineer."
Twilight said.
Scout then pulled out his Bonk!Atomic Punch! Drink and drank it.
It cleared his mind, and he ran out the door.
Rainbow dash saw his speed, agility.
"You showboat."
Rainbow Dash smiled and flew after him.
"Well, so much for having everyone here."
Twilight said, and facehoofed.
"Well, with the rest of you, just follow me to the castle's libary."
"Ok, ma'am."
They walked down the long, purple, crystal, hallway, and turned left at the 4th door.
Engineer put down the tenth book he read from midnoon about Equestria and sighed. He knows that they would need a proper base soon, like how Coaltown was built. Long passageways, holes to knock the enemy into for eternity, so on and forth. He has been reading about the region around Ponyville. Ponyville was a recent settlement, one of the closest settlements to Canterlot, Equestria's capital.
Engineer got out of his seat on the floor and walked toward the dining room. There, was Heavy, making sandviches for a quick snack. Engineer found sandvich delicious, in an incident where Heavy took his bacon one day, maybe like this:
Youtube Video
"It was a food exchange."
He thought to himself.
"Cause' that's what he gets."
Heavy grabbed some bacon, and stuffed it into the sandvich. Engineer licked his lips, at the sight of bacon.
Heavy turned around, and said,
"Engi! Come have some!"
Engineer nodded.
They both took a bacon sandvich, and munched on it, Heavy making a Om-Nom-Nom noise.
"Whew, that was delicious!"
"Da, is good thing."
Engineer waved to Heavy and went back to the libary section.
He continued reading.
Meanwhile... Somewhere in Ponyville...
Scout and Rainbow Dash continued to have a series of races to see their skills, and mostly, speed.
"Ha! Eat my Dust!"
Dust whooshed into Rainbow Dash as Scout drank some Bonk! Atomic Punch!, and ran off, parkouring like a boos onto the rooftops.
"Oh, no you don't!"
Rainbow Dash said as she flew towards Scout.
Faster and Faster she went.
"Almost... gotcha'!
SLAM!
The two collided, and fell to the ground.
Now at the edge of Ponyville, near the Everfree Forest, they got up.
"Ha! Beat ya!
"Nope! Ya' eat my dust! I win!"
"No, you didn't!"
All that noise attracted some timberwolves.
"Run! Its the timberwolves!"
Scout just snorted, and grabbed his scattergun from his amazing huge backpack.
"Lets do this."
Rainbow Dash stopped midflight, and shouted at scout
"What are you doing?Run!"
"No way!"
A timber wolf pounced at scout from the darkness.
"Whoop!"
Scout juked the wolf, and shot it twice.
Wood fell to the floor, the timberwolf whining in pain.
Scout grabbed a Crit-O-Cola and drank it, making him faster (A bit) and crit hits are real.
The scattergun spat out crit bullets, ending the timberwolve's life.
Rainbow Dash was horrified at the death of a creature in Equestria.
"You just killed a timberwolf!
"Well, he was going to kill me or somethin'.."
Distracted, a timberwolf managed to scratch scout.
Scout got enraged, double-jumped in the air, pulled out his Strange Sandman, and hit the ball.
BONK!
The timberwolf was stunned, and scout bashed it into pieces.
Ding!
"Looks like I got another kill for my sandman."
Rainbow Dash was amazed at the fight.
"OK, scout, we're even."
Scout smiled, and grasped Rainbow Dash's hoof it warmly.
Back at the Castle...
Engineer put down the 20th book and stopped.
"Whew! Time to move that gear up!"
Engineer ran to the kitchen where he left all his stuff and backpack and grabbed it.
He ran around the castle, looking for Heavy.
He found Heavy joking with Pinkie Pie in the map room.
"Heavy!"
"Wat?"
"We gotta' move that gear up!"
"Da!"
Heavy waved goodbye at Pinkie Pie.
"Good times with little pink horse!"
"That was fun!"
Engineer and Heavy ran to find Medic, Soldier, and Demoman.
They both found them at the front of the castle, Demoman and Soldier having an arm wrestle tourment.
"Guys!"
Everyone looked at engineer.
"We've gotta move that gear up and build us a base!
"Ja!"
"Sir, Yes Sir!
"Yes!"
"Get to it!"
Engineer motioned them inside and back to the libary.
There, he set down his gear.
He managed to find a spare blueprint just in case of a new killing machine or somethin'.
"Well, I've never used it."
Engineer thought to himself.
The men started planning out their base with Engineer's help from the books.
Of course, soldier said:
"You're a smartass, grease monkey."
The engineer just grinned.
Twilight Sparkle walked in, and saw the men huddled together.
"Hi guys, what are you doing?"
"Miss Twilight, we are clearly planning a base for us, so that ve dont have to stay in ze castle , your castle."
"Okay."
Twilight stayed with the men to provide more information to help them build their base. Well, more like learn about their building styles.
"This is amazing! I'm so excited to learn more from you humans!"
Twilight squealed.
Heavy grinned, while Engineer and Medic facepalmed.
"Well, plans are set! Lets Go, Go, Go and move that gear out!"
The men assembled outside, and went into town.
Heavy grabbed a wagon and pulled it with the help of soldier. They followed Demoman,Engineer, and Medic around town pulling the wagon of increasing supplies.
In went:
Some leftover pieces of wood.
Two small metal frames.
5 buckets of sand.
5 buckets of gravel.
5 Empty wooden crates.
A rusty old lock.
2 pony-sized hammers.
2 pony-sized shovels.
3 sets of rusty horseshoes.
Two logs.
2 Hoses.
Broken Brush handle.
And an empty chest(Wood with iron frame.)
"This is enough for now."
Engineer said.
Heavy and Soldier sighed in relief as they stopped at their destination; a fresh plot of grass.
"Well, lets get to it!"
Demo said as they cheered.
The Changeling Hive
"So, what type of weapon exactly?"
"Some type of projectile launcher, not like Celestia's stupid guard's crossbows."
"Well, at least we can create those crossbows and try to at least take them out."
"Fine. Come back and tell me when the crossbows are done."
"Yes, my Queen."
Back in Ponyville...
"Whew!"
The Red Mercs looked at what they "built."
All they did was dug out a 10 feet deep hole with the length of a football field.
"Da. Was good work."
Medic facepalmed.
The buckets of Gravel were used as paths that lead to the future place of the main entrance.
"We certainilly need some help."
Soldier remarked,
"Even from the pastrel hippes."
"Then why don't we get them to help us then?"
Scout asked.
The mercs ran off to find a pony construction building company.
Medic was left behind, and he sighed. He pulled out gauged cylinders out from his australium-powered backpack.
"Lets go practice some mediziene."
The Changeling Hive...
Knock! Knock!
"Who is it!?!"
"Its me, my queen."
"Is the production of crossbows done?"
"Yes. We are currently training a group to use them correctly."
"Good. Order the blacksmiths to make more crossbows for us. Lets show these intruders that they cannot stop us!"
The Ponyville construction company headquarters
"So your saying that your mercs from another world now here summoned by Princess Celestia herself, and to defend Equestria, and want to build your own HQ?"
"Yeah!"
"Ok. That will be 20 thousand bits."
Scout, Soldier, and Engineer facepalmed.
"Can we have a private talk between me, Mr. Patriot, and Hardhat over ere'?"
The company boss shrugged and nodded yes."
Scout, Soldier, and Engineer walked out of the room.
"What the fuck? 20 thousand bits?!?! That's gold, pure gold right there!"
"Ah' handle it."
Engineer went back inside to talk to the boss.
"Me and mah' team over here is under Celestia's order. She'll pay fer' it."
The boss pony sighed, and nodded.
"Well, I send the bill to Celestia as you say so."
Scout heard it outside the room and said a silent Yes!
Engineer came out with Heavy and Demoman.
"Well, lets see to the protection of this town!"
Scout sighed.
"Yo, dusk is coming!"
"Well, lets go back to the castle!"
Midnight. The Changeling Hive.
"My Queen. The two attack groups are ready."
"Start the attack. First on two outposts on the outer west Everfree forest, fly over the forest itself, and attack Ponyville, home to Celestia's favorite pupil and the intruders."
The Changeling Captain saluted with its hoof.
He trotted towards the entrance of the hive.
"Charge! Squad 1 will go south-west, and Squad 2 will go south-east to attack the two outposts. We will meet up at ponyville from your direction. Go!"
The buzzing of wings made the noise of the changeling squads even scarier as they flew up in the dark night. Some of them wearing armor, some of them don't.
2 AM in the morning... Twilight's castle.
Scout woke up to the buzzing of wings, smoke, and zooming of arrows.
"Aw, crap! Incoming!"
The Red mercs woke up immediately and grabbed their weapons.
"Yee-Ha!"
"Charge!"
"Raaa!"
"Wait, where's medic?"
Medic burst in, panting, arrows stuck in his Uber pack, carrying cylinders full of diffrent types of liquids.
"Ze changelings, they're attacking!"
Medic set down his cylinders down and pulled the arrows out of the uber pack.
"Lets go practice medizene. Again!"
The Red mercs charged out into Ponyville. There, they saw some buildings on fire, ponies screaming and items shattering, wood clanking onto the floor.
Whoosh!
Crossbow arrows zoomed towards the Red mercs as they jumped behind cover.
"Dispenser going up!"
Engineer said as he placed a toolbox on the ground and started whacking it with his strange Jag.
The Changeling Squad 2 took cover behind some boxes,not knowing what to expect.
Soldier and Demoman grinned.
Demoman pulled out his sticky launcher and launched 8 stickies around the boxes.
"Shiny balls? Wat."
A changeling said.
Beep!
Ker-boom!
"I'll be over ya like shingles!"
Some survived, and started shooting arrows.
"Time to hide, baby cowards!"
Heavy said as he revved up his minigun.
Medic healed Heavy with the strange medigun, and popped the uber.
"I am BULLETPROOF!"
Arrows bounced off Heavy harmlessly as Heavy cleared changeling Squad 2 with his minigun.
Soldier shot rockets at the squad, while scout and demoman sat next to the dispenser.
Scout heard a hiss, and turned around to see squad 1 aiming crossbows at him.
"Incoming!"
Scout grabbed his flying gullotine and threw it at the changeling captain.
Blood spattered from his body, and he slumped to the floor. Scout doged the incoming barrage of arrows.
"Sentry goin' up!"
Engineer said, whacking the level 1 sentry with the jag as it did non-lethal damage to the changelings.
"Agh! Medic!"
Demoman said, five arrows striking him. Medic rushed into the crossfire, getting striked twice.
Meanwhile... Soldier finished off Squad 2 and rocket-jumped into the air.
"Screaming eagles!"
Pwomp! WHACK! Critical Hit!
One changeling got stomped by Soldiers Manntreads and another got market gardened.
"You got dominated, hippe, get a job!"
Demoman fired cannonballs from his Loose Cannon and leaped behind cover.
The Squad got scattered, and took cover. By the time, Engineer grinned as the sentry gun upgraded to level 3. It spat out hellish projectiles at the changelings, ending some changelings.
"Giddy-up!"
Scout ran up, only to be met a arrow to the leg.
"Ugh!"
Scout pulled out his scattergun and shot the changeling.
"I'm running circles around you, I'm running circles around you!"
Meanwhile... At Rainbow Dash's house.
Rainbow Dash woke up at the noise of explosions and zooming of arrows.
"Ugh... whats going on?"
She walked outside, and met a changeling in full armor aiming a crossbow at her.
"Whoa!"
ZOOM!
Plink!
Rainbow Dash flew quickly into her house, and slammed the door just as the arrow hit the door. She locked the windows, and blocked the door. The changeling smashed the door down with brute force, but Rainbow Dash was ready.
SMACK!
POW!
FLING!
Plink!
Thud!
Rainbow Dash smacked the changeling, did a upperhoof, threw it across the room, the changeling managing to shoot but miss, and land with a thud.
"What the hay is going on?"
She saw Ponyvile in flames, buildings crumbling to the floor. Only East Ponyvile and the town square was still intact.
She flew down, and in the burning west ponyvile section was the mercanaries, fighting a squad of changelings with crossbows.
"Get to it la-agh!"
Rainbow dash gasped.
Demoman got struck in the nuts by a arrow.
"MEEDDIICC!!"
Medic started to heal him, when Demoman equipped the Splendid Screen and The eyelander.
"ARRRGH!"
BANG!
An imaginary crowd cheers in the background as Demo charged at a changeling and bashed it to death. Shocked at the charge, the last 3 changelings were late to react.
"I'm gona' glue you butt toghether, in HELL!"
Swing!
SPACKK!
Dark greenish-blackish blood spewered everywhere, as two changeling heads fell to the ground. The last one managed to escape, but was shot down by the level three sentry Engineer built.
"Makin' Bacon. Woo-wee!"
"Ha! Ha! Ha!"
Rainbow Dash was about to hurl at the sight of blood, but she keep her food in.
"What? Thats how they all fight? Damn, it is disgusting and horrifying!"
Scout heard Rainbow Dash and looked up. He motioned Rainbow Dash to come down and talk.
"What was that? Why are all of you so violent!?!"
Rainbow said.
"We just doing our job. In our world , we kill for a living."
"Why? Can't you just resort to peace?"
"Nope."
Heavy, Soldier, Demoman, and Medic ran off to get some buckets of water while Scout, Rainbow Dash, and Engineer stay at the scene to clean up and keep watch for any incoming changelings.
6AM Western Ponyvile...
Twilight Sparkle with Rarity and Fluttershy looked at the ruins of ponyvile.
"What happened here?"
"I don't want to know.*Squeak*!"
"Its like the dreadful place of the diamond dogs, ugh!"
When they came to the north and south areas of Ponyvile, it was totally ruined, most buildings burned to the grounds, remains of crossbow arrows where everywhere. Twilight shuddered at the sight of pony blood on the floor.
When the three came to the western section of Ponyvile, they gasped with fear. Even though the houses where slightly charred from the fires, changeling blood painted the floors and walls.
"Yo, missy, whazup?"
Twilight looked towards Scout, sitting next to a sleeping Rainbow Dash, a dispenser, a sentry gun, and a sleeping engineer on a metalic arm-rest chair.
"You did this?!? You burned ponyvile and hurt its residents?"
"Wat? No."
"Why is there blood on the ground?"
"Well, some changelings decided to come by and fuck things up, but we killed them all."
"Yea!" Engineer said suddenly, then grabbed a beer and chugged it.
"I saw it with my own eyes! He was fighting changelings for real Twilight!"
Rainbow pleaded.
"Well, fine, I believe you."
"Damn, I feel hungry."
Scout said.
"How about we go to Sugarcube corner for some treats?"
Scout smiled.
"Yes!"
Engineer open his eyes.
"Ah' stay here, ah' ain't hungry."
Canterlot Castle...
Celestia was staring at a delicious cake.
No guard was there to alert Celestia about ponyvile.
BANG!
Princess Luna ran into the room.
"Sister!"
Celestia turned around.
"Wat?"
"Ponyvile was burned mostly to the ground!"
"How come you didn't tell me?"
Princess Luna sighed.
"I forgot until the sun came up, and even though the guards reminded me, I just... drifted off..."
Princess Celestia just facehoofed.
"Well, send emergency suppiles to Ponyvile to help it recover."
"Yes sister."
Luna walked out of the room.
Celestia teleported to her own room, and started to write a letter.
Dear Princess Twilight,
I know that Ponyvile has been burned down, I just need to know how many is injured or missing, emergency help will be coming from canterlot. I also want to know what caused the burning of Ponyvile.
Sincercly,
Princess Celestia.
Base is done, maggots! Re-edited!
2 days later... In Ponyvile...
After two emergency supply drops, Ponyvile had half recovered from their first changeling attack.
During that time, the construction on the RED mercs' base has stopped.
Once Engineer heard that, he sighed and facepalmed.
Celestia got a letter back from Twilight about what happened:
Dear Princess Celestia,
Me and my friends are fine, and which Rainbow Dash spectated the changelings attack. Though we have 23 minor injuries, nopny died, and all is fine. Ponyvile is recovering quickly thanks to your emergency supply drops. To let you know, the RED mercs were the ones to fight the changelings in a brutal way, but at least saved us.
Sincercly, Princess Twilight
The Changeling hive...
"SO WHAT HAPPENED?"
"My queen, uh, the attack squads you sent out-"
Then the changeling stutters for a second.
"-did burn down about half of Ponyvile*stutter*"
The Queen snifed.
"-and... the mercs managed to kill them all*Stutter* and put out most of the fire."
Queen Chrysalis roared in fury, used her magic, and threw the changeling across the room.
"GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!"
The changeling hesitated, and ran out the room.
Queen Chrysalis grunted, and thought,
"Time for new plans."
Back In Ponyvile...
Rainbow Dash and Scout were having a conversation.
"You were 20 percent cooler than all of your teammates last night!"
"Yeah, I am the best!"
They walked by the construction area of the Red Merc's base.
Scout saw construction ponies building the base according to engineer's blueprints.
Scout saw Engineer directing the construction ponies with his blue prints.
"Yo hardhat, how's it goin'?"
"Alrighty fine, ol' scout."
"Keep it goin' Keep it goin'!"
Two construction ponies carried a big crate and set it down.
Engineer got a Mann Co. Key from his backpack and started unlocking the crate.
Unboxing crate...5...4...3...2...1...
Engineer smiled to himself and said to scout,
"Bring it to soldier!"
Scout grabbed the unusual hat and ran to Twilight's castle, Rainbow Dash trailing behind.
Engineer smiled and chuckled.
"What was that for?"
One of the construction ponies asked, totally uninterested in the unusual effect of the hat.
"For my fellow partners."
Engineer replied. He magically threw away the empty crate and told them to get back to work.
Twilight's crystal castle...
Scout kicked the door open.
"Boom!"
He ran into the library, to see no one's there except Medic, scanning the bookshelf walls for books that could help him in his studies.
"Yo, doc, seen soldier?"
"Ja, he vent upstairs!"
"Thanks, doc."
He ran back and ran past Rainbow Dash.
"Whoa!"
Rainbow Dash spun around in circles.
"Yo, this way Dash!"
Rainbow Dash flew after scout, and the came to the upstair's part.
A door sat in front.
Scout slowly open the door and peeked inside.
Soldier was in there standing on a gold balcony, staring through a telescope, muttering curses about the world he saw below him.
"Crazy hippe land, I might as well never come back here."
Scout snickered quietly and shouted,
"Soldier, guess what I got for you!"
Soldier snapped his neck toward's Scout position and started in amazement.
"Holy Mary mther of josive!"
He ran towards the unusual Team Captain with the blizzardy storm effect and put it on, laughing heartily.
"Thanks, scout!"
"No problem!"
Meanwhile...
A construction pony walked towards the construction site of the Red Mercs' Base, looking around the area suspicously. He snickered, since he was a changeling in disguise. Once no pony was looking, he snatched the Base bluprints and replace It with another bluprint, a fake, different one. But engineer saw this, being a pro in killing spies back in the Badlands and Gravel Pits. He grabbed his wrangler and did a sentry jump.
As the changeling was about to run into the shadows to uncloak Engineer pulled out his Strange Jag and shouted,
"YEEE-HAWWWW!"
The changeling heard a whistling noise, then all went black and red with a sickening crack.
"STAB!"
The changeling tried to run , slowly bleeding to dead, mumuring,
"Must make*Stutters, spits out greenish-blackish blood* it to my..."
Engineer snickered angrily.
"Never mess with a Texan."
Engineer threw his Jag into the changeling's head, blood splattering everywhere as the limp body uncloaked and fell to the floor.
"Goodnight, Irene!"
1 week later....
The base stood tall and proud, Soldier admiring it with a smile on his face.
"Today's a good day!"
Medic brought all his organic samples and placed them into his brand new labortory.
"Vundenbar!"
Engineer brought his tools, blueprints, and machinese in.
"Whew, that's was gettin' heavy!"
Bascially, the base was like their 2fort base, only with one spawn room, nearest to the courtyard. The underground intelligence room was not included, and there were concrete walls for the perimeter of the base instead of chain fence. The sewers were also not included, and the spawn room was more reinforced so that it could not be spawn camped easily.
"Something's missing, maggots!"
Soldier shouted unhappily.
"Vat, soldier, is missing?"
"The respawn machine!"
"Von't vorry, engineer and me took care of vat long ago."
Medic open a hatch with lots of security measures, pin codes, eye scanners, fingerprint scanners, voice scanners, facial regonition, movement tracker, and more.
" Holy Mary Mother of Jesus!"
After Medic unlocked everything with the spawn doors closed, he put the six mercinaries blood on 6 of 9 holes in the machine. The respawn machine, powered by crystals and a low power source, hummed softly.
"Now it should vork."
Demo blew himself up with 4 stickies, and respawn 6 second later.
"Works, alright."
"Well, maggots, our base is done! Lets get back to kicking their changeling asses!"
We need the entire RED team!
The changeling hive...
"My queen, it has been 3 weeks since those intruders came here and ruined our invasion plans. What is your next move?"
The Queen thought carefully.
"Make more crossbows. This time, include some melee attackers from the one eye charger from killing the archers. Also, dip the crossbow arrows in poison for better efficency. At least the poison slows them down. GO!"
"Yes, my queen."
The changeling ran out of the room , and run in a zig zag of tunnels of the black hive.
Left, right, up and left, then down, down right, turn left, go foward, turn left, and there it was, a huge room with a pool of lava in the middle, lots of huge dipping water stations , hammer racks, supplies, anvils, you name it.
"All provided by a friend in the past."
Ponyville, Engineer's thinking room(Also known as his machinery room)...
Engineer sat and sat, thinking about the things the changelings had done over the past 3 weeks they RED mercenaries were here in Equestria.
First, a minor changeling squad attacked the train they were riding down to Ponyvile.
Next, 2 changeling crossbow squads attacked Ponyvile and burned down almost half of the town
Finally, a changeling attempted to steal the mercanaries' base blueprints.
Engineer found the point.
"They're trying to invade Equestria!"
"They could be preparing for a full on onslaught."
2 weeks later...
The train puffed up the mountain, the RED team sitting calmly as the train chugged up the mountain.
After getting past the Canterlot Inspection Gates that has been set up recently, the RED Mercs headed toward Canterlot Castle.
"NO! I don't want to see spy!"
"Scout, ve must, ze changelings are zetting an invasion, dumkoph."
"Fuck that!"
Medic and Scout were bickering even harder as they entered the castle and walked towards the castle.
Soldier gritted his teeth.
"More of those fancy, royal, hippies."
They entered the Throne Room.
On the throne sat Princess Celestia.
Medic and Engineer bowed.
"No need for that. Tell me what you have to say."
Engineer stepped foward.
"The changelin's are plannin' ah' invasion, a even stronger invasion that the last invasion."
"So you say?"
"That we need more team members"
"Who you say?"
"The spy, the sniper, and the pyro, miss."
Celestia nodded, and told the mercs to step out of the room.
A bright flash filled the throne room.
Meanwhile.... In France
Spy was sitting on a genuine leather armchair in his apartment.
His sevices were not needed, as the rest of the RED team were fighting the robots.
He didn't had a care in the world.
Spy took out his disguise kit, to see it didn't work.
Spy shrugged, and picked out a cigarete, just as he heard a twinkling noise, and a yellow aura covered him.
"Mon die-"
POP!
Unknown place...
Pyro and sniper walked around a abandoned steel works facility.
"Sniper, ya' sure that this blimy creepy place is your home?"
"Mmp Hmmp."
Pyro nodded yes.
Sniper groaned and spit onto the floor.
Suddenly, they heard a twinkly noise, and a yellow golden aura covered Sniper and Pyro.
"Ah, piss."
POP!
A whiny noise came out of nowhere.
Canterlot Castle, Throne Room....
"-U!"
Spy fell out with a pop, dropping his lit cigarrete on the floor.
"Pardon me."
Spy got up, and dusted off his coat.
POP!
Pyro and Sniper fell down from nowhere.
"The bloody hell just happen?"
"Spy, Pyro, Sniper, get up!"
Pyro got up first, but then looked out the window.
"Is this real?"
He though to himself.
"Just like Ballonicorn world, but, with more ponies!"
Pyro turned around to see Celestia staring at him.
Sniper and Spy got up, and bowed to Celestia.
"No need."
Pyro got overwhelmed and joyful of a big, white, pony in front of him.
Pyro hugged Celestia and mmphed a bunch of mmhps.
"Anyone know what your friend is saying?"
Meanwhile... In the Changeling Hive's forgery...
Lots of crossbows and Swords laid on a huge, dark, table.
Arrows dipped in poison laid in poison-proof quivers.
One blacksmith changeling whispered into a changeling's ear.
The changeling nodded, and flew up to the throne room.
The Queen was sleeping, and the changeling knocked on the door.
"What is IT?"
"My Queen, the production of weaponary has finished."
"Make sets of armor for our changeling army. Ask changeling captains Grimy and Slurge to train a amassed army. Also, send in five changeling spies to spy on the intruders and their "rock" base."
"Yes, my queen."
The changeling flew towards Grimy and Slurge's rooms.
Telling them to train a changeling army, Grimy and Slurge snickered.
The captains walked into a huge room, filled with changelings practicing for battle.
The changelings snapped to attention.
"Let the fun, beginnn."
Meanwhile... In Canterlot...
The RED team, fully formed, walked out of the castle.
"Well, that was some bloody rubbish."
Pyro had hugged Celestia since he was in a colorful horse world.
"Canterlot, Manehattan, Ponyvile, whassup with all the pony puns?"
Scout replied after looking at a map of Equestria.
Spy saw a perfect chance to troll Scout.
Slowly, he sneaked up to Scout, which was having a disscusion with Heavy.
Spy grabbed Scout's ear piece and said
"I am scout, rainbows make my cry!"
Scout got enraged and pulled out a strange frying pan from his backpack.
Scout whacked it into Spy's face.
"OOFF!"
"Shut up!"
Medic laughed.
Pyro just stared.
Back at Ponyvile...
"Zat is Spy, Sniper, and Pyro, some other collagues."
Pinkie Pie bounced up to Pyro.
"Hi There!" My name's Pinkie Pie! I like cake, like to throw parties and-"
"I think the suit guy gets it, Pinkie Pie."
Spy turned and looked at Rarity.
At the exact same moment, Rarity looked at spy.
"Well, Hello there."
Scout saw this and facepalmed.
"God dammit, spy!"
Sniper met with Twilight.
"Bloody Filtrual Ponies."
He thought.
"Hi, my name is Twilight Sparkle."
"I'm the sniper, mate."
"Oh."
Medic and Engineer decided to go back to their base, as they had plans for the incoming invasion.
Little did they know, that changeling spies have already called the changeling army already.
"Lookss like someoness in a big ssuprisse."
One changeling spy said to a fellow changeling spy in a alley.
"Do you really have to spit for spooky affects?"
30 minutes later...
Sniper was sitting on a perch the one alike to the one in 2Fort.
He scanned the country-side with his trusty Hitman's Heatmaker.
Suddenly, he saw some movement near the Everfree forest.
"Bloody Ell."
He then saw a changeling sticking his armored head out into the daylight, and resolved it.
"Ah, PIss. INCOMING!!!"
Meet The Professionals.
Soldier heard the voice, and snapped to attention.
"INCOMMING!!"
Demoman, Scout, Spy stumbled out of the chairs they were sitting on and grabbed their weapons.
"Move up, Move up, MOVE UP!!"
Engineer, sitting on a bench in the respawn room, grabbed his tools, threw down blueprints for machines he was looking for, and ran down to the ground floor of the fort.
Out on the perch, Sniper aimed, as another armored changeling slowly stepped out of the forest.
"I see you, mate. Its was too easy to spot you."
The sound of a bullet getting shot echoed throughout the fort, the team gathering below in the courtyard.
Meanwhile... at the edge of the Everfree Forest
A large army of changelings hid in the Everfree's shadows, Captain Grimy ordering a nervous changeling scout to scout out the town.
Slowly, he crawled out of the shadows, and Splat! .
The changeling scout dropped dead on the ground, a hole in its head revealing a goopy mess.
Captain Slurge walked up to Captain Grimy.
"The rissk is to dangerous, we should find another approach."
"Sso, what do suggest?"
"Our changeling spies notified us that the intruders are alert of our presense, luckily the poniess are not aware."
Captain Grimy thought for a moment.
"Attack the town from a diffrent spot of the Everfree. Make sure to avoid those intruders' sight, since we will force them out."
"I will alert the rest of the army."
"Good. Now they're in for some slaughtering."
Back at the fort...
The entire team was at the entrance of the fort, except Spy, who decided to sneak away and learn the changeling's attack plans.
"Heavy thinks team should kill tiny stoopid babies."
"Mmph."
"Ah, that could get us overwhelmed, it ain't a place we'd hould' be."
Engineer placed a Teleporter Exit in the base, and started upgrading it while the rest of the team chatted, waiting for spy to come back.
"Gentlemen."
After 10 minutes, Spy was standing in front of the RED team.
"Zey are attacking from a point where we, would not see them."
"Where, cruton?"
Spy pointed in a direction where Sniper couldn't fire at from the perch.
Medic and Engineer thought for a moment, and then Soldier said,
"MOVE OUT!"
They headed towards that area, otherwise known as the west part of Ponyvile.
Scout decided to alert the Mane 6 about the invasion.
He arrived at the Crystal Castle, and kicked open the door.
"Yo bookworm!"
Scout shouted loudly.
A pissed-off Twilight teleported in front of Scout.
"WHAT?"
"The changeling, creepy freaks, are attacking, dumbass."
"Well, I didn't know!"
Twilight alerted the other ponies of Ponyvile, while Scout headed back to the Western Part of Ponyvile.
There, Engineer set up a Level 3 Sentry Gun and a Level 3 Dispenser with a Level 3 Teleporter at the end of the stone bridge.
Heavy revved up Sasha, Medic ready to pop his Ubercharge.
Pyro sat behind a box, playing with two rubber ducks, with his Flamethrower at his side.
Next to Pyro, stood Sniper on a box, aiming at the direction where the changelings would come.
Demoman having laid out his sticky traps, Soldier waiting quietly next to the Dispenser, Spy no where to be seen.
They heard a rumbling, and Sniper fired his Sniper Rifle.
"Incoming!!"
A huge wave of melee, armored Changelings rushed at them, Scout jumped in front of them, firing his scattergun.
Heavy fired, Soldier and Demoman firing explosives at the changelings.
A storm of crossbow arrows rained down on the mercs, but with the help of the dispenser and the Medic, they weren't affected by the poison.
"I outta' got to be on a Baseball card!"
Scout whacked a Ball from his Sandman and stunned a huge Changeling brute, Sniper taking it down.
Pyro spy-checked for any changeling that would creep up on the RED team and stab them to death.
As well as the RED team fought, the army over-numbered them, soon, they were pushed back into the town.
The changelings burned down and destroyed any buildings or possesions belonging to ponies. What they didn't expect, was the citizens to be fighting back.
Rainbow Dash teamed up with Scout, and knocked out/killed many changelings, Pinkie Pie using her party cannon to knock them back.
Other townponies threw anything they could get their hooves on.
Soldier, firing rocket after rocket from his "Direct Hit," heard a 'Ding" come from his Buff Banner.
Soldier smirked, and blew into the trumpet.
With the Buff from Soldier, the ponies and the Mercs got Mini-crits and started demolishing the changelings. However, the changelings pulled back.
"What? The changelings are moving back? Move up!"
Soldier Cried as he rocket jumped ahead.
He saw a huge wooden shield with green shimmering on it. Soldier shot a rocket at it, crying
"Screamin' Eagles!"
However, it exploded on impact, but the shield didn't break. The rest of the team came along, taking cover from arrows being shot being the large shield.
Meanwhile, Captain Grimy ordered the archers to hail death on the Mercs.
"Mmph!Mmph!"
Suddenly, the shield exploded into flaming pieces, as Pyro did a Kandukan taunt on the shied.
"Mmph mmph mmph, Mmph!"
Demoman launched two grenades, and the changeling archers exploded into bloody pieces.
"Ya all Bloody Dead!"
Captain Grimy ordered the changeling "tanks" to the front.
The brutes took the damage, and one faltered, while the other had a giant battle axe and swung at Scout.
"Whoop! Missed me! Try again, dumbass!" Scout came up to the brute, doged a swing and some arrows, and smack the brute in the face with his Sandman!
"BOOM! Now that, was a head fracture!"
Sniper was quickscoping the remaining changelings like a professional.
"Ya bludgin' blokes! Ya' heads are over 12 bloody feet tall!"
Backup archers came and started shooting arrows like crazy, Heavy taking some serious damage.
"MEDDICC!"
Scout double-jumped to avoid arrows, but another hail of arrows pinned him onto a nearby house.
"Um... little help?"
"Dumkophs!"
Medic cursed as he rushed over to Scout to heal him, but fell to the ground as 12 arrows were stuck in his legs.
"NOO!" Heavy cried, as he took cover behind a box as Sniper fell, knocked out by the posion arrows.
"Sniper is Dead!"
Engineer's second Level 3 sentry was destroyed, and took cover next to Heavy.
"Erecting a dispenser! Go heavy!"
Heavy roared as he got up and started firing Sasha once more. With the help of the dispenser, he resisted the hailstorm of arrows.
Meanwhile, Soldier cried in pain as arrows struck everywhere on his body as he tried to fire back with his rockets, and he fell to the ground.
"Noooo! I will not tolerate failing for my team!"
He tried to shoot another rocket, but his Direct Hit was out of ammo. Soldier slumped to the ground, defeated.
Soldier heard the laughter of Captain Grimy and Captain Sludge of his defeat. Demoman was down, Scout was down, Sniper was down, Medic was down, and Pyro and Spy was no where to be seen. The towns ponies fled from the hail of arrows, Twilight summoning a magic shield to block the arrows.
"Twilight, I gotta' go help Scout!"
Rainbow Dash pleaded,
"No, You can't! There's just too much arrows out there! You'll be killed!"
Fluttershy was hiding in a box, while Changeling Warriors rushed past, crying softly.
Rainbow Dash flew out, arrows missing her by inches, as she rushed to get Scout.
After dragging Scout to a safe place, Rainbow Dash tried to wake up Scout.
"Scout, you gotta' get up! We're depending on you!"
Scout groaned as he got back up, and looked at Rainbow Dash.
Scout raised, but then dropped his scattergun and Sandman as he slumped to the ground once more. Rainbow Dash cried in agony, and turned towards two charging changeling warriors. She picked up the Sandman, and hit the ball, like how scout did it. The ball stunned one warrior, while the other one got blown to pieces. Scout was holding the scattergun in his hand.
"Miss me? Dumbasses."
Soldier kept on the floor a bit down with only 25 Heath Points left, defeated.
"No wait, am I dead?"
Soldier then remembered his time killing Nazi Hippies in WW2, and he rose up and ran over to the dispenser. He got more ammo, and found his Buff was full again.
"Hello, felines!"
Medic, Sniper, and Demoman were taking cover behind a box, after respawning.
"Get your asses over here Medic and Demoman! I want you to charge me! Demoman, do a favor."
Medic started getting his ubercharge back up to full while Soldier told Demoman his plan.
"Now Move Up!"
Demoman placed one sticky on the floor and sticky-jumped into the air, firing from his grenade launcher.
Changeling Archers expolded into pieces, and left Captain Grimy wounded.
"What? I thought these 3 intruders died from the arrows!"
Captain Grimy raged.
"Back form the grave, lad!"
Was his response as he got blown to pieces.
Captain Slurge's group of Melee and Archer Changelings finished burning down a house when they heard Soldier's Roar.
Ubercharged, he jumped out of cover, Buff Banner activated, and emptied his Direct Hit into the group. Heavy was gunning down any running changeling warriors as they attempted to attack the trio. The rockets blew up lots of Changeling Archers, the word "Mini-Crit!" floating over their heads., leaving Captain Slimy dazed and confused.
"Lets kick your ass back to hell, you ugly scum!"
One rocket propelled Captain Slimy in the air. Rainbow Dash flew into him, delivering a good punch that sent Slimy into the ground.
Captain Slimy fell to the ground and tried running, but Pyro was right behind him.
"Mmph Mmph, Mmph? MMph!"
'No, Please, I surrender!"
Pyro airblasted Slimy into a dark alleyway, with no way out.
Slimy then heard someone laughing, then snorting, then laughing again, hearing someone uncloaking behind him.
"You are such, a bad, captain!"
Slimy charged at Spy, but Spy jumped onto some crates, jumped over Slimy, and trick-stabbed him.
"You got blood on my suit."
"Nice shot, Spy!"
Soldier complimenting Spy.
"Whew, that was close!"
Pyro suddenly started running towards in the direction of Sugar Cube Corner.
"Where's Pyro goin'?
"I think he notices something. Lets follow him."
The RED Team followed Pyro to Sugar Cube Corner, which was barricaded by the residents of Ponyvile, having barricaded themselves inside, except for Rainbow Dash, who was flying besides Scout.
Meanwhile...At Sugar Cube Corner...
The residents of Ponyvile was hunkered down in Sugar Cube Corner, the windows barricaded and the Mane 5(As Rainbow Dash wasn't there.) keeping a watch out for any changelings, PInkie Pie trying to entertain the scared ponies to be calm, brave, etc. Twilight Sparkle heard some boards flinging of a window upstairs, the glass breaking. Twilight readied her horn, as she cautiously trotted up the stairs. It was just Derpy Hooves, that have flown through the window.
"I got you a letter!"
She held a mailbox with her hooves and banged it against Twilight's head, a letter falling out.
The letter read:
Hi there.
Twilight was just confused, and Rarity came over.
"Who would write that little? Surely there is something going on."
Little did they know, a well known towns pony named Carrot Cake snuck behind them.
Twilight and Rarity heard a hissing behind them, and then Rarity cried in pain, as Carrot Cake undisguised as a changeling spy.
"Rarity!" Was all Twilight said, as she got back stabbed too.
"Too easy."
The changeling complimented himself, as he dragged Rarity and Twilight's injured and unconscious bodies into a random closet.
He then disguised as Twilight, and went down the stairs.
Pinkie Pie was stuffing her face with cake, when she heard Twilight whispering for her to come over.
She loudly bounced over to Twilight and said:
"What?"
The door got burned to ashes, as Pyro walked in, ponies screaming in fear.
Meanwhile... Pyro vision...
Pyro saw lots of ponies running around happily in a sweet store shop.
As Pyro turned to look at PInkie Pie he saw Twilight Sparkle, crying.
Well, Pyro decided to give Twilight some rainbow happiness with his RainBlower.
He saw all the other ponies cheering for him, as he blew happiness to Twilight, shouting in joy.
Back in reality...
The changeling spy disguised as Twilight smirked smugly, PInkie Pie looking at Pyro with a confused face.
Pyro looked around, then saw the changeling spy smirking, and started incinerating the changeling spy with his strange flamethrower, ponies and their little foals shrieking in fear, as the changeling spy screamed of pain as he burned to death.
Pinkie Pie heard Pyro mumbling about something as Medic and Scout rushed into the building.
"Pyro says he blew happiness to that sad changeling!"
Pinkie Pie abruptly said.
Scout heard Pinkie Pie and came over.
"How do you even understands what Pyro say-"
"Help!"
Scout as heard Medic shouting for help. and ran up the stairs to find Medic dragging the unconscious bodies of the real Twilight and Rarity.
"Drag them out into the open."
Scout dragged the two ponies out of the closet as Medic started healing them.
"Done, Scout! Ve' must let them vake' up."
"That was easy."
Scout remarked.
Meanwhile... downstairs...
"Well done, men! We kicked the bug's ugly asses back to hell, protecting the civvies!"
Soldier complimated the RED team.
"There's one little problem, soldier."
Scout said.
Soldier's head made cracking noises as he quickly turned around.
"What, scout?"
"Some civvies are harmed..."
Scout said, chuckling.
"Civvies were harmed? I will find more of those spy-like bugs and kick ALL of their asses back to hell!"
The Rest of the Team Chuckled at this. Solider always overreact, for some reason most frantically near civilians.
But the RED team knew about the Civilian Incident.
The rest of the day was spent in repairs, swearing, Medic doing his "experiments" and stuff RED team would normally do.
Medic's Labortory...
Medic stared at the lab screens.
"It seems that ze' felines are in a coma. Strange. Usually backstabs would paralyze a regular human for a nanosecond before killing the victim. Wait! Zey' are ponies!"
Medic rushed to grab the medigun , hanging on a rack.
He had a reserve ubercharge for any upcoming battles, and decided to try to ubercharge Twilight.
Right as he activated the ubercharge, Medic saw that Twilight was ubered.
"I am succesful! A pony's heart can be ubercharged, and..."
He stopped speaking. The ubercharge color was flickering.
The color suddenly turned to Purple.
