The Special Ops Team

I peaked out from my dark hiding space, usually in Manehattan it was very easy to hide with the bustling life all around. But that was before the revolution, now the streets are always nearly deserted. The only ones that didn't know what was going on, and the brave ones would be walking on the street. Right now though there was only my team of ponies, and the Solar Empire soldiers positioned in front of a “secret base”.

There were only 3 ponies from what I could see, two stallion pegasus guards at the first floor door and a unicorn mare at the second level window. These stallions at the door looked like a particularly dumb, dull, thick group. On the other hand the unicorn guardian from the window looked fierce and alert. Ready to pounce, one thing about her that stood out was her coat and hair. They were warm colors that didn't blend well with the night. I smirked and hid behind the dark alley again, shielding myself with the night I turned to the select few that were able to make it into the special ops team. My unicorn and earth pony counterparts joined my side, I flared my wings with a subtle clanging of crystals gathering the other ponies attention. The unicorn, pegasus, and earth pony looked at me ready for a small debrief of the area.

“Ok so the base is disguised as a rock pouch store. There are two stallion pegasus guards and a unicorn mare guarding the second floor window. Midnight Burst and I will take care of the mare, Delilah Dusk and Silver Shine will knock out the stallions with a good buck to the head. Moon Rose, you put your signature bind spell on the guards and hide them in the alley so they won't cause a fuss when we need to leave. Sapphire Wing, you give Moon cover and make sure no one sees what is going on. Midnight and I will start to clear the second floor and all the other ponies that laid hits get to help us clear the top floors, including Silver and Delilah will make their way up to us. Sapphire and Moon, if anything goes wrong we will use the distress signal. If something happens outside, use a firework flare spell to warn us. Make sure the enemy doesn't get anything to useful from your saddle bags. Got it team?” I asked looking around to make sure no pony was confused or held the slightest hesitation.

“Yes General Star Swift. Protegat nos Principem, ut Luna est lux. Quoniam in re publica Lunar!” I nodded in approval of my teams clarity and the special ops secret honor and propoganda code. I flicked my short purple tail and turned around, glaring at the new challenge standing before me. I looked around to see my team raising their masks, covering their faces and ears only letting a small amount of mane show. We all wore the same Special Lunar Ops suits, they were mostly black or reflective to make us nearly unseeable with the option of attachable saddlebags for special missions like this. I lowered myself stretching my wings out so the midnight blue unicorn could easily climb on my back.

“Special Lunar ops, execute entrance plan.” And with those words my team went to work, I zoomed high up into the air, the moon let Midnight and I blend in without a hitch or any trouble. My celadon blue coat and midnight purple hooves hid me well as we speeded to the window. Midnight put a cloaking spell around us as we flew closer and closer to the unsuspecting unicorn. I looked at the midnight blue and dark cerulean unicorn and nodded. She narrowed her electric purple eyes and cast a spell on the window. Her electric ultramarine magic making the window wavy, so we could pass through it like water. I zoomed in knocking the unicorn down softly as I could, right before Midnight’s spell faded. The other unicorn was hay yellow, her mane was sunset orange she lay stunned for a bit before Midnight pounced on her. She snapped out of it immediately and opened her mouth to yell, Midnight encased her with her magic making her immobile. She then bound the mare in magic absorbent ropes. They were enchanted so that the rope relayed the magic used straight back to her or stored in the ropes, so she could draw magic from the hay yellow mare. The mare looked enraged as I roughly dragged her into the furthest and darkest corner, you could barely see her pumpkin cutie mark in the dark. After two grunts and the sound of heads hitting, we got to the real work. I squinted as I walked in pure darkness, no pony was in sight on this floor so far. My ears were sweeping the area like a scanner ready to pick up any noise that anypony would make. We would check the high floors before making our way the the bottom, incase there was a secret basement of some kind. I knew my team would agree with this as well as I continued on. I looked to my side seeing Midnight, her dark cerulean mane gleaming in the light from the window.

I am General Star Swift. Survivor of the Cloudsdale burning and massacre, first pegasi to have crystal wings prosthetics (heh actually any crystal prosthetics at all), and the General for the Special Lunar Ops team. My team and I have our pasts but we know our future: to fight for Princess Luna’s rule, or live peacefully in it.

In Luna's name we fight for the rights of the ponies, for the pegasi we lost, for the suffering of the unicorns, and for the enslaved earth ponies! For our fallen and our breathing brethren, we will put ourselves on the line. For Equestria, for a better Equestria the one that we have envisioned a long time since Celestia become unstable.
