With the mysterious terrorist cell only known as the White Mask growing in power, Six makes the calculated decision to recruit more operators into the newly reassembled Team Rainbow. With many highly skilled individuals around the world, recruitment should be easy. Six does not just want soldiers, she wants individuals who strive to make a difference, people who know what's on the line and will fight to defend what they value. Countless organizations and military powers offer candidates for the role of Five (second-in-command) but one individual catches her attention: a young upstart in the EIA, Equestrian Intelligence Agency, Twilight Sparkle. A purely academic analyst, who has never seen any real combat first hand, something within Twilight Sparkle spoke to Six, telling her that "she needed some pressure to become the diamond she was destined to be".
Six sends out her new hopeful with several additional members to Team Rainbow's roster to go through a "trial by fire" of sorts. Will Six's intuition be correct? More importantly, will the White Mask be brought down and their benefactors brought into the light?
