Mission 1: Lone guardian
Location: Manehattan, Allied Briefing Camp
Time: 1200 ET (Equestrian Time)
Situation: Allied Take-back Begins
Shining Armor got the go-ahead to launch their first counter attack against the soviets and, it starts with the return of Manehattan into Equestrian command. “Good morning Commander, it’s nice to finally meet you. Let me introduce myself, my name is Miamore Cadenza, or you can call me Cadance, for short. I will be your special ops for this mission.” Cadance introduced herself to the commander via video call. Cadance was tying sticks of dynamite together for use on the mission. After a few more sticks of TNT strapped together she was ready to depart on her mission.
She stepped out of the tent engulfing an earpiece with her aura and putting it in her ear, “Test, test, 1, 2, check. Hey commander can you hear me?” Cadance asked she received a reply from the earpiece saying, “Loud and clear Cadance you may precede with the mission at hoof.” Cadance just nodded and started.
Cadance reached an area where she could see four ships, launching missiles at the Statue of Liberty. Given to them by the Prench (French) after they separated from the Britails (British) over a hundred years ago; luckily those missiles were harmlessly being neutralized by patriot missile launchers taking them out as they come. Cadance dived into the water snout first and heading for the first ship, she levitated a dynamite charge and armed it. When she arrived she flung it over and detonated the charge, sending everypony in the ship down to their doom. Cadance then turned her attention to the second ship right beside her, she flung a charge into the ship and it sunk just after the charge detonated.
After the ship sank, Cadance heard something coming from her earpiece saying, “Congratulations Cadance, you have been promoted.” “Great!” she said back. She turned her attention to the next ship and continued swimming. Just under the lowered anchor, she climbed on to the chain, treating it as a rope to get her up. When she was in she drew her pistol, neatly holstered on her belt, it came off easily. Holding it up neatly with her aura, Cadance flipped off the safety switch and positioned it in front of her. Cadance was supposed to use the ship’s missiles to sink itself, as she was running low on dynamite charges, “great, don’t pack your TNT and you’ll be forced to use whatever explosives you could get your hooves on.” Cadance thought to herself. As she made her way through the ships interior, she constantly finds herself using a round or two to kill off anypony that comes in her way.
After an hour or so inside, she finally finds the ammunition storage room, it was filled with explosives, TNT, ANFO, and some other type she could not recognize. She finds some wire and hooks it up to a loose battery she found lying around. Fortunately for her she found a porthole in the room and she would use it to make a quick escape when she had to, and she would because after hooking up the wires to the explosives, she quickly jumped out of the window and detonated it with her aura as she went. When Cadance hit the water all she heard was a loud explosion and, she splashing into the cold water of the Manehattan River.
Just as she landed she once again heard the earpiece saying, “Congratulations, you have been promoted.” Cadance ignored this just as she started to the last ship, ‘Last one, luckily I’m also on my last charge, maybe they have some extra TNT when I get to Fort Braidley’ she thought as she continued swimming to the ship. Cadance flung the last charge over the ship’s railings and it exploded, sinking the statue’s last attacker. Cadance made her way towards the shore and to her disappointment she saw two transport vessels heading to the docks, luckily the defenders of the statue were eager enough to help her fight against the oncoming troops.
Cadance drew her gun aiming at the conscript’s face; her aim was true, as she pulled the trigger, the unlucky stallion dropped dead on the landing. The rest of the conscripts rushed out only to be killed by the oncoming barrage of bullets sent by the Equestrian G.I.s. Unknown to the soldiers, a missile was launched towards the statue sending it to the ground, and Cadance only saw a fallen figure when she turned around. Her earpiece received some unknown static causing her to drop them, when she picked it back up, it was saying something, “Surrender now Allies, and you have not a chance against us Soviets. Look we can make a deal, you surrender and we give you another statue or keep on fighting and loose every one of your valuable monuments, the choice is yours.” The message ended with the soviet anthem playing. The song was cut halfway by the sudden EMP wave going across the city; the troops by the docks were all forced to use their regular sight as the EMP wave wiped out all the electronics that they had, fortunately the communication link to HQ was not severed by the EMP and all command was still okay. They started making their way towards the main city.
