"Huh?.....wait! Where are you going?" yelled Fluttershy as the metal beast ran off in a different direction leaving a cloud of dust in its wake.

"Oh no you don't!" exclaimed Rainbowdash as she took off after the beast in an attempt to stop it.

"Wait Rainbowdash!" Called Twilight as she watched Rainbow take off after the beasts.

"We have to stop her Twilight, before she hurts herself!" exclaimed Rarity while watching Rainbow chase after the beasts.

"Come on Lets go!" exclaimed Twilight as she and her friends started running after Rainbow in hopes of stopping her before things end bad real quickly.

Rainbowdash had been flying to keep up with the metal beasts, but apparently the beasts werent as fast as her which allowed her to keep up. As she kept on following the beasts, the forest started to get thicker and she started to lose sight of the beasts. Quickly thinking she went below the tree line and managed to spot them again, however this became a problem since the branches from the trees and over excessive bushes were constantly getting in her way which made her lose sight of these beasts every now and then. Rainbow also noticed that the sun had started to set and soon the creatures of the night will roam the everfree in search of food. Rainbow pushed her thoughts aside and picked up speed avoiding branches and trees and finally caught up to one of the beasts.

"Can't these things slow down?" thought Rainbow as she ducked under a branch to avoid collision,"at least they aren't as fast as me"

"Schlägerei, the cyan pony is still following us" said Wilde as he smashed straight through a tree, breaking it instantly due to his armor.

"I know, i can see that" replied Schlägerei as he jumped over a log,"ill take are of it, i don't want any visitors near our new commander"

"We are not ordered to kill anything," said Wilde as he continued dodging more obstacles,"besides, how are you gonna take care of it?"

"Oh, ill just immobolise it," said Schlägerei as he jumped up into a nearby branch and used it as a spring to launch himself straight at the flying pony.

Rainbowdash tried her best to keep up with these beasts but as the sun started to go down she could barely keep track of them until she spotted one of them in a clearing, she quickly tried to level herself with it to try and communicate with it. Then suddenly the beast jumped up to a nearby branch and launched itself towards her, Rainbow then quickly tried to do a manuevur but was too late as the beast slammed straight into her with full force. Rainbow felt like her body had been hit by a train and was slowly falling together with the beast, she felt some broken bones no doubt as she soon hit the ground with a thud.

Schlägerei had succesfully stopped its pursuer and was now determined to make sure it never follows him and Wilde again.

Rainbowdash was barely concious when she hit the ground, she tried to get up but felt a throbbing pain in her side. She tried to move again but the pain was too much, she looked around and saw the metal beast approaching her.

"Hey you stay back! Or...or...im gonna buck the crap outta you!" she exclaimed, but winced again as the pain in her side became more painful. She looked at the beast again and this time it was no more than 2ft away from her. Rainbow tried to speak again but was silenced by the pain in her side.

Schlägerei looked at the pony and quickly annalysed which was the best way to immobolise it without potentially killing it. He opted for the wings but then decided it would follow them on foot, he then scanned its legs and found its weakness. It one swift motion Schlägerei pounced on the pony and bit down on its frontal right leg with full force enough to crush a fully grown human. As Schlägerei bit down on the pony's leg it let out a definate scream.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Rainbow felt like a boulder the size of a house had smashed her foward right leg and it was now trapped underneath it. She tried her best not to scream again but the beast kept moving its mouth like a dog tearing apart its new toy, Rainbow couldn't help but scream again.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" screamed Rainbow again as tears started to form in her eyes, she knew she was gonna die and no one was gonna save her. She wanted the pain to stop badly, there was blood coming out of her leg and the puddle started to grow bigger, Rainbow coughed up more blood as the dog kept moving its mouth viciously. Then Rainbow couldn't hold on any longer and passed out in a bloody heap.

Schlägerei looked at his work and saw the pony had lost quite some blood, enough for it too pass out but not die. He heard voices in the distance thanks to his super hearing abilities and quickly ran in the direction of Wilde, who was waiting in the nearby bushes for him.

"That was a bit brutal" said Wilde.

"Hah! That? Brutal? We all know what brutal is when we tear a human rebel to pieces!" exclaimed Schlägerei as he took off on the original path towards the London Monitor.

"Should've let me join in on the fun" said Wilde as he took off after Schlägerei.

"Betrer luck next time" replied Schlägerei.

Twilight and her friends had been galloping all the way through the everfree trying to follow Rainbow, who was busy chasing the beasts. As the sun started to set Twilight became even more worried for they might be trapped in this place for the whole night. Following the beast was pretty easy since they left all sorts of destruction in their wake, broken branches, destroyed tress and trampled bushes made it easy to locate them. Unfortunatly Fluttershy was not happy with this destruction as many critters were left without homes or food. Fluttershy tried to help them but was soon stopped by her friends reminding her that they have another job at hand. While the were busy making their way through the forest Twilight stopped in her tracks as she heard a fimiliar scream in the distance.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" as the scream came from deeper in the woods.

"Did you guys hear it?" Asked Twilight in a worried voice.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" came the scream again.

"Thats Rainbow's voice! Dear me it looks like she has run into trouble after all!"exclaimed Rarity.

"We need to help her" said Fluttershy.

"Rainbow! We're coming!" yelled Twilight at the top of her voice in hopes of a response from Rainbow

As the three friends sprinted off in the direction of the scream they hoped their friend was all right. Using the path that was created by the beasts they arrived at the scene where it came to a dead end.

"Where did they go?" asked Rarity.

"Spread out they can't be too far" replied Twilight.

"I found Rainbow guys!" said Fluttershy in an excited way, but her smile soon faded when she saw what happened to her friend.

The three friends wasted no time in getting to Rainbow's body. Upon closer inspection they all gasped in horror as they saw their injured friend. Fluttershy began to cry as Twilight and Rarity began to inspect here wounds. Rarity used a basic healing spell to try and stop the bleeding in her leg while Twilight did a full body scan with her magic to check for any injuries. She found that Rainbow's left wing had been broken due to something hard smashing into it resulting in it being bent in an awkward position.

Twilight began casting more spells to stop the bleeding in her leg but she knew it wasn't enough, they needed to get Rainbow to a hospital now. Twilight thought of using a long range teleportation spell but she barely even practiced it. She looked at her injured friend and pushed her thoughts aside.

"Guys, get closer Ill teleport us to the Ponyville hospital" began Twilight as she began charging up her horn.

Fluttershy and Rarity looked at each other before nodding and huddled close to Twilight with Rainbowdash in the middle. Within the next second a bright purple flash was emitted and the group was gone.

Nurse Redheart had been busy attending to her patients needs when suddenly and bright purple light appeared and standing in the middle of the room was princess sparkle and her three friends, only that one of them was in really bad shape.

"She needs a doctor!" exclaimed Twilight as she rubbed the dizziness away from her head.

Nurse Redheart wasted no time and bolted out the door to call for extra personal before returning to the room to check on Rainbowdash. Within seconds Rainbow was lifted onto a emergency bed and was rolled off to the emergency room with her friends folllowing behind.

Kessler had been waiting for the Panzerhunds all night and they still hadn't shown up yet.

"Monitor open the hatch, im going for some fresh air," began Kessler as he stood up and proceeded towards the control door and opened it.

"Will do" replied the Monitor.

The entrance hatch opened and Kessler stepped outside into the besutiful night sky he sat down on top of the closed hatch and watched the stars and marveled at their beauty. He ordered the ladder to drop down and he made his way to the ground. Seeing there was still plenty of time left he removed his coat hung on one of the bolts attaches to the legs and began his usual daily excersie that he used to do back at the London Nautica. He started out by doing fifty laps around the Monitor and then moved on to fifty push ups and fifty curl ups, he then proceeded to test his manuevrability by running and doing power slides with his silenced pistol and began shooting makeshift targets and using stealth to his advantage.

"Yep still got it" said Kessler as he began to put on his coat and began climbing up the ladder to the London Monitor.

Just as Kessler put his foot on the Ladder two noisy object burst out of the woods which startled Kessler as he scrambled to cover and whipped out his pistol. He peeked aroud the corner and saw the two Panzerhunds from earlier on.

"Well were here" said Schlägerei as looked at the Monitor.

"About time you arrived, your new master is eager to meet you" began the Monitor as it spoke into its comms.

"Where is he?" asked Wilde.

"Over there" replied Schlägerei as he motioned his scanners towards the Monitors legs.

Kessler stepped out of his hiding place and looked at the two Panzerhunds, which in turn looked back at him. The two Panzerhunds made their way over to him as fast as possible and began wagging their tails excitedly and sitting down on their hinds like the obdedient dogs they are. Kessler eyed the two of them carefully until he noticed the one on his right had familiar markings and had blood on its metal teeth, but that wasn't the case. He racked his brains for any clue that might lead him to knowing this familiar symbol, thats when it hit him like a train.

"Panzerhund Schlägerei? Am I correct? Is that you?" asked Kessler as he pointed his finger at the familiar vicious dog.

The Panzerhund could only nod its head in excitement as its new master said its name.

"How does he know you?" asked Wilde in confusion.

"Oh, I was assigned to his squad a few years back when we were patroling the streets of London" replied Schlägerei.

"Oh" was all Wilde could say before looking back at his new master.

Kessler looked at the second Panzerhund and asked the Monitor for its name.

"Monitor whats the second ones name?" he asked.

"Panzerhund Wilde, Leutenant" it replied.

"Ahh thanks" he replied before turning his attention back to the Panzerhunds.

"Now where are we gonna keep you two?" he asked no one in particular.

Then the two attack pods detached themselves and landed with a heavy thud and each one opened an empty hatch, enough to fit one Panzerhud in each.

"What sort of storage is that?" he asked.

"Emergency storage sir" it replied.

"Oh" said Kessler as he watched the two Panzerhunds climb into their respective areas before the hatches closed and the pods began to re-attach themselves to the Monitor.

Kessler made his way up the ladder again and reached the top to take one final look at the night sky before making his way down the hatch and into the control room. As he sat down in his chair he said.

"Wake me up early tomorrow, Im going to do my daily excersise starting today" said Kessler before putting his feet up to rest on the control panel,"and you may proceed again to our destination"

"Will do" replied the Monitor as it lurched forward and began its thunderous journey towards the pony area. The Monitor watched as its commander fell asleep as it began movig again. It kept on replaying the battle it had with Bj and kept on finding out its weakness that he exploited so well. It kept watching the footage where every time it charged up a Laser shot it would be stunned momentarily. As it made new changes to its programming and began changing specifications to its Laser it was now statisfied with what it can do now, if ever someone were to shoot its eye now with Laser or Explosive weaponry the Eye/Laser will absorb it and turn it into energy to feed its systems or add extra power to its Laser Cannon. This made the Monitor happy as it kept reaserching this for a week ever since it got here and was now happy with its new upgrade. As the Monitor trekked it way towards the Pony Land it didn't realise that it was heading straight for its capital or also known as "Canterlot"

As the Monitor walked through the night it kept track of the time. It left the previous camp spot at 8:01 and the current time is now 1:00, the Monitor had been walking for 4 hours straight and still no civilizations have been spotted, just trees and grass going on and on. As the Monitor rounded a bend it found it self at the base of a Mountain and it seems it has stepped out into clear open fields. It scanned the area and if its map data was correct, if they round this corner they would have to just proceed straight towards the pony land. The Monitor scanned again and this time picked up voices over on the other side of the Mountain, it was faint but it was voices. Protocols being put into affect, the Monitor opened two small hatches opened on the top and out came two Mk 2 Drones, Wasp and Hornet, at the ready. The Monitor relayed its orders for a scouting mission and it was explicitly to only scouting. As the drones took off over the Mountain, they activated their cloaking and live camera feed to relay all valuable intel back to the Monitor. As the Drones crested the ridge line they came over and split up, covering more ground that way. As the live feed was being fed to the Monitor, the drone saw what seemed to be a stone wall that seemed to extend until the next mountain which didn't seem far. As the drone(Hornet) flew over the area it spotted many horse like creatures clad in golden armor carrying spears or swords or crossbows. The same footage came from the second drone(Wasp) which was seeig the exact same thing horses carrying swords and spears. As hornet continued to survey the area, it spotted multiple tents and what seemed to be training grounds for these horses. Obviously these horses were preparing for some kind of battle but the drone didn't dwell on it, instead it continued to survey the area until it got called back, as it continued to observe these horses it spotted what seemed to be a giant crossbow on wheels. It zoomed in and saw that it was indeed a giant crossbow. Meanwhile Wasp was busy observing the features of these horses, apparently some of them have wings while others had horns. Those with wings could fly and do all sorts of tricks while those with horns could shoot some sort of bolt at its targets, as for the ones without either wings nor horns they seemed to be normal horses the only difference, they seem to be more hardworking. As the horns started blaring in the camp all sorts of activity sprung out of no where as all the horses were busy gettig ready or attending to their stations. The Monitor recalled the drones as the data they have gathered is already enough. As the drones went back into their hatches the Monitor began to study these creatures and began exploiting their weaknesses until Kessler will wake up, until then the night would be full of research.
