"So before we move on the playground, Liberation here." He pointed at the mare with red armor beside him. "She is going to give you the rules."

"Ok! There are four teams in total all your recruits." She gestured with a hoof. "eleven troops in each squad including your commanding officer. The main objective is to get the flag that is in the middle of the battlefield and..." Then made a suspenseful pause. "You win the match but... If you can't do that then you need to need to have all teams flags, even your own. Any questions?" No answer. "Good, behold the roster." She said sarcastically.

Squad: Alpha

The ponies were suiting up in royal guard armor in the barracks. "So... you think you're ready for this Thunder Bolt?"

Thunder Bolt nodded firmly "I think we can pull it off... Maybe."

"Oh come on, your squad leader and you are scared. That is going to mess up the are teammate's confidence."

"Ok Power Play I'll think positive."

*****

Squad: Bravo

"Warp, looking at the battlefield what do you think the strategy should be?"

"I don't really know the answer Ashley but I think we should do is wing it." He chuckled.

*****

Squad: Charlie

"Follow me and we can do this, any questions with the plan?" The room had a pregnant silence. Until one raised a hoof.

"If we win this, drinks are on me!" The whole room was filled with cheers.

"Sorry kid, no alcohol... Unless are superior allows it."

The room was then filled with "Awe come on!"

*****

Squad: Delta

"Ok kids when we start just protect the flag, I got this."

"Ma'am, what makes you think that you can do it by yourself? Is it the rank pride, a show-off?" The squad nodded in agreement.

"Kid, kid, kid... I'm a pegasi warrior... And I can prove it." She pulled out a sword from a sheath hanging from her side. It was concealed well black armor and with the matching color sheath.

The mare gulped.

Weeeoooeee!Weeeoooeee! The alarms were going throughout the whole building. "Sir the prisoners are escaping! what do we do?"

He just sighed "son we have to abandon ship now." All the ponies in the control room ran out the door leaving their leader behind. He rubbed his eyes with his hooves and sighed this was his last rodeo... He hit a few buttons on the control panel. The giant screen illuminated the dark room. Skimming through the cameras watching as the ponies screamed in horror. He saw some dead on the floor blood on the walls. Then a banging on the control room door started. On the rolling chair he was sitting on he pushed himself to where the button with a glass casing over it. He smashed the glass with a hoof and smashing the button in. The screen read "self-destruct in T-minus 5 minutes." He took off his hat and set it on his chest. He closed his eyes. The door went flying over his head. He opened his eyes and saw the figure. His eyes went wide. "Oh Celestia," he cried.

Prancer and Ashley, eating in the officers break room. "So Prancer, what are we going to be doing after this?"

"The next thing is a music lesson!" She chirped.

"Wait for what? aren't we training to be a special force or something?"

Prancers grin grew "music is the key to see someone's true colors."

"Uh-huh sure, you do that." She didn't sound convinced.

Having a skeptical look prancer teased "hey who is the mentor here..."

Ashley huffed and crossed her hooves over her chest and pouted "fine."

*****

"So um what do we do now." Ashley was making circles on the ground with her hoof.

"Go see liberation and go do drills with her ok." Prancers was absorbed in the comic book.

"What are you reading-oh really your reading that... That's for fillys and colts not for mares."

"No, it is not! Batmare is for all ages... You should really try reading it is very interesting."

"Maybe some other time ma'am but right now I'm heading to liberation..." She walked to the door and said over her shoulder "And actually a good teacher."

Prancer's ears shot up "I'm coming I'm coming you nag... You're like an annoying a daughter gees."

*****

In the weight room, Ashley was lifting 25-pound weights while Prancer was examining Batmare's costume "what an interesting design!" Prancer though.

"Why aren't you lifting... Do you even lift?" Ashley cracked a grin.

"What? Of course, I do... I just don't need... and don't want." I pouted. "Let me be, I just want to read my comic so please just shut it you nag... Well, im going to hit the hay night."

"Night, Prancer I'll be there in a few key."

"Okey dokey lokey, see you later kid, but before I do I'm getting the music for tomorrow ready." I give her a smile and pranced away excited for tomorrow.
