I awoke with a start. “Damn nightmares” I muttered. Princess luna would help me get over them in my sleep… if she were still alive that is.

Yep, i'm in the fricking wastes 200 yearsish in the future after balefire rained from the skies. I've always hated these times of darkness and heartache, but there are heroes of light to combat the dark. I've survived for too long in this hell hole of a waste land

My problem happened after using an enchanted sword meant for unicorns but after my cybernetics took hold after that failed raid.

Anyways the sword captured the magic in the air and funneled it back to the unicorn using it giving them more magic to wield the blade, the magic it captured had nowhere to go because I have no horn only wing so the magic traveled into me, now that is a problem because my body absorbed the magic into my bloodstream. Sense this is wild magic that took hold it could have done anything to me, instead, it used a healing potion and boosted it to the point where my body healed everything as soon as it was hurt

combine that with cybernetics and you get me, a 225 or so year old mare ,who cannot die. That's right people step right up and shoot me.

Anyways I groaned and sat up attaching my right arm, my back left leg, and the other half of my left front leg. I tend to detach them when I’m in a safe place that no one has a chance to get into because I tend to have nightmare and maybe sometimes I lash out and end up breaking things with the enhanced strength.

Either way I went about making breakfast, pancakes with CRAM, gems, and some good old-fashioned wasteland scrap metal.

After that my armour was next first the leg protection 4 light enchanted kevlar leg protection. Light  duty chest, and side barding. And my old black Lunar Ranger duster, with white crescent moon insignia on the shoulder.Next I put the metal neck collar on, which upon touching the button on the side, a full black helmet with white glowing eyes, respirator, light with a number 5 in white faded lettering on the side and a small outline of my family crest on the other, an arrow with wings for fletchings, and other things like that were found on it. With everything complete I looked, and sounded, like large a stallion.

Yep it was protocol that no one recognises us by any means and to keep to the shadows, but I’ll get to that later

Weapon time! I don't carry that much in the way of weapons but what I do carry some ponies call it overkill. So here's the list 1 custom made custom modified .50 cal. rifle, 2 custom made custom ammunition 13mm pistols, 1 White steel sword (the sword that made me like this in the first place), and soul blades. Now soul blades are... well-complicated let's just say.

Either way, time to test out the teleporter- oh wait yea that's why I was all dressed up because I'm testing some teleporter that, some random scavenger, found in an MAS building, somewhere in Philydelphia.

I went to the basement and cued in the destination, just to the other side of the basement just to test. The device also had a dial asking for frequency so I set it to 00.00. I held the small device, breathing heavily through the respirator on my helmet, as I activated the device “come on” I urged. The talisman in the middle sparkled and shone as it activated. purple lines started to surround me until I was fully encased in a purple bubble that grew in intensity when I tried to step out I was only met with resistance, I was about to turn it off when there was a bright flash and. Darkness

“Squadron Captain Crossbow reporting for duty, Sir!” I snapped as I gave a crisp salute to the commanding officer of the stealth riders,  “At ease soldiers.” he said to the other 3 captains around me.

“So here is your next mission all of you.” he said gesturing to a virtual map of a Equestria “Swift Wing you are to take you and your team here” this time he used a stick to point to an area recently taken control by the Zebra “take your team and lead the side charge” said our CO. Swift Wing gave a solute and trotted off “Crossbow, Your team is leading the frontal sneak assault at this zebra camp here” he spoke to me.”yes sir” I said and started trotting toward the hanger I started putting on my suit and strapping up my battle saddle, and summoned the enchanted wing blades .

‘I wonder how well will pull this off’ I thought to myself. ‘Or how mom, dad, and sis are doing…’

“No brain”. I said while simultaneously smacking myself in the face with one of my  metal clad wings. “Ow,” I said.

‘Once you go down that path you will start to get emotional, and you don't want emotional’. My mind had a good point

“never thought the captain would be one for spacing out” Race Feather snarkily commented causing me to snap out of my stupor causing a blush to come to the lighter grey and white part of my coat, and to push some stands of my white tipped black mane out of my face.

I turned to see my whole team staring at me already to go. “ ok let's go” I said as I walked out of the locker room spreading my wings wide “Bravo team ready” I said, into the helmet over my face. The five of us dove out and got up to speed, ready for battle.

“ah!” I shouted eyes shooting wide, as the memory faded. I remember that day pretty well, it was the last day of the Bravo stealth team.

“Ahem!” coughed a voice and I realized I was not alone. And I had no weapons or armour on me

I flopped back and groaned “Tell your boss I got three more days to get the job done,” I said. I am a protector of the wasteland but I do need to take a job here and there to keep the caps up and to save some ponies hides. “I don't know who this ‘boss’ is but I don't work for them,” Said a voice in the room.

I quirked an eyebrow at that slowly sitting up again to look at my captors. Standing there in front of me was a purple unicorn. Now that's not what surprised me. it was what she looked like, and the 5 other ponies standing behind her that did “Ah! Nononononononononono” I said putting my head in my hooves “Y-y-you are a-all supposed to be d-dead” I stuttered at them causing twilight and the others to take a step back.
