-------Before The Fall-------

(Year- 3209, Frontlines- Planet Nashira- Orbit, 3rd person- Inquisitor Two)

The rebel forces on Nashira had been detained as the second Inquisitor's flagship, the 'Endeavor' and her fleet were above orbit. A messenger ran up to the second Inquisitor and handed him a Data-pad, the Inquisitor took the tablet to find that him and his ship were to return to New Eden to report for the Chairman, as the new ACSC 'Vengeance' was to replace his flagship in the fleet. When he finished reading the report, he saw the replacement drop out of warp space as his own fell out of formation and warped to the capital planet.

(New Eden- Capitol Building, 3rd person- Inquisitor Two)

The second Inquisitor maintained a brisk pace as he was going to the Chairman's office, when he opened he door to the lobby, he waved at the secretary as he passed. The secretary nodded back at the immortal warrior as he passed to the Chairman's office, then pushing a button, notifying him that the ATL was coming. When the Inquisitor arrived outside the door, he straightened his armor somewhat as he heard bickering in the office. When he tapped on the door, the room went quiet as the door opened, signalling the Inquisitor to come in. And when he did, he saw a bunch of Nobles looking back with smirks thinking that they were normal guards, but those quickly turned to fear as they saw one of the Inquisitors standing there. All the Nobles ran out of the room, giving the Inquisitor a wide berth as they ran out, closing the door leaving the Inquisitor and the Chairman alone. Once they were alone, a few moments passed before the two busted out laughing at the cowardness of the Nobles, the Inquisitor walked forward and sat down at the desk and took off his helmet, revealing his face which was...

ERROR
(Wait, what?... Let me fix this... annnnd... Still?... Oh well, can't reveal this yet... Enjoy the story!)

His and the Chairman's laughter eventually died down until the Inquisitor put his helmet back on as he got straight back to business.

"So, why did you summon me back to the Capitol, David?"

"(Sigh) Walk with me." The Chairman and the Inquisitor who put on his helmet, got up and walked down the Capitol's hallways until they were on one that overlooked the whole city. They stopped as the Inquisitor just looked out and the Chairman leaned back on the rail. "Beautiful, Ain't it?"

"Yes, sir... But, why did you bring me here?"

"(Sigh) Always straight to the point, that's why you're my favorite, Fox." At this the Inquisitor's stance shifted as he also leaned against the rail.

"David... you know I don't like that name. That's why I tried to bury it."

"The reason why I brought you here was because, well... your team and crew are worried about you."

"...How?"

"Your starting to become detached from life, Two Niner."

"...Sir?"

"...Twenty nine, I'm giving you time off to re-enter you into society, at least social skills."

"Sir? I'm great with people."

"Yeah, if you consider interrogating a child like a hardened criminal as normal social skills."

"..."

"Yeah, didn't think so."

"...What about the rebels?"

"Your team and the others can take care of it."

"And my ship?"

"...It will all be taken care of, my friend." Then the two split as they went to preform their separate duties.

-------3 Brothers On Equus-------

(Time- Current- Midnight, Outskirts of Ponyville, 3rd person- ATLs)

The two were walking through the town as the rain fell on them, it would hit hard for anyone else, but for the ATLs, it was like home. The two walked back to the ship and went their separate ways, Talon looked to his brother as the doors slid shut and the Inquisitor fell onto the mattress. "Even we need to sleep."

"'You've grown up, Red.'" The Inquisitor whips out his pistol as he saw someone he thought to be long gone.

"L-lioness?"

"'Yes, my little Inquisitor.'" he then slumped to the floor and cried as she tucked his head onto of her lap. "'Shh, everything will be okay... you need to let me go.'"

"I-I can't, you are the one that kept me going."

"'You can't hold onto me forever, I have moved on... so should you.'"

"B-but I-I."

"'Shh... goodbye... my love.'" And she disappeared as Talon opened the door to find his brother on the floor sniffling.

"(Sigh) It happened again?" The Inquisitor nods on the floor, still crying as Talon picked him up, "Come on, lets get you something from the freezer." Talon sets him down on a bench and kneels beside him. "Will you be okay on your own?" Nods, "(Sigh) Alright, I'll be right back."

Talon then got up and went to the freezer part of the ship and opened the door. "Hope the locals don't find out about all of this." Pulls out a cake, "Especially the Solar one."

(Canterlot- Celestia's bed chambers)

The Solar ruler is sleeping peacefully until she suddenly sits up as she sneezes and nose twitches.

"...Someone powerful is talking about me... and has one of my cakes... LUNA!!!"

(Back to our he-... our ATLs)

LUNA

Both ATLs looked up from their slices of cake when they heard that whisper, the Inquisitor looked to Talon, almost back to his normal state... and having let go of that old memory. "Talon... where did you get the cake?"

"Umm..."

(Flashback)

Talon, Arrow and Azure are looking through the fridge when Talon noticed that they were missing something.

"Hey Arrow, we're out of cake."

"Noted."

(Few days later)

Talon is looking through the fridge when Arrow walks in with a cake, gaining a look from Talon.

"Arrow... Where did you get that cake?"

"... One of the princesses had a surplus and unknowingly gave it to me." Talon just shrugs and points.

"Put it over there."

(End of Flashback)

"...No idea, why?"

"Talon."

"What."

"Talon."

"No."

"Talon."

"Nope."

"...Talon."

"...(Sigh)... Arrow took it from one of the princesses." The Inquisitor chuckles, putting it together. "You ate some of it too." Dead silence.

"I swear Talon." There was the pop of teleportation as Luna stood there with singed clothes.

"...Talon."

"...Fuck."

"Ten seconds." Talon gets up and starts to run

"Shit, shit, shit." Luna smirks as she sits where Talon was as Inquisitor slid a piece of cake over.

"I had no idea that he took it, assumed that he bought it."

"(Sigh) It's fine Inquisitor, just a bit of singed clothing."

"Hmm... maybe you could loan some from Azure. Oh and my friends called me Red."

"Who's Azure?"

"Hmm? Oh, Azure is someon- somepony we picked up while running. Let me call her... AZURE!"

"'WHAT!'"

"We have a guest that is around your build, can you bring her spare clothes?"

"'Oh, finally have a lady friend, sir?'"

"Just bring her the damn clothes."

"'Yes, sir!'"

"A-are you and her... you know."

"What, no." a few moments pass until Azure goes around the corner carrying the clothes.

"'Here you go...'" She stares as Luna stares back at her, they get up and approach each other in a staring contest, silently competing for his possible affection.

"Umm... ladies?" They both round on him

"NOT 'NOW.'" Now he raised his hands and walked away, to where his... old memories lay under a tarp while Talon was rummaging through his own pile of... memories.

"Gotta fix you up old girl." A few minutes passed until Luna came up to the door and tapped on it.

"Inquisitor? Talon? Are you two in there?"

"Yes, why?"

"Sister and the Elements need us for something." The Inquisitor shrugged at Talon who then got up and they both opened the door to find Luna in one of Azures jeans, t-shirts, but wearing the Inquisitor's old 'Foxtrot' jacket.

"Where did you get that jacket?"

"Hmm? oh, we... found it."

"You found it?"

"You had one of my sister's cakes."

"...Touché."

"Hmm, anyways, lets go." And they were in the throne room in a flash of light, when they looked around Luna was on her throne beside her sister. The ATLs cross their arms as Celestia looks at them.

"So... I heard from Twilight that you were especially cold earlier, care to explain?"

"I can explain that. Well you see, every once in two to four millenniums, out Inquisitor loses his humanity from all the fighting and becomes a cold husk until he is forced to be given time off. Say, when was your last therapy visit?"

"...Three millennium."

"See, he's just cold."

"Hmm..." Celestia gains a smirk, "My sister does still need to renter society, so I am pairing you two as partners until both of you are healed, sessions every week."

"...What?"

-------Far Far Away-------

(Year: Current, Place: RAU Gateway Ring Fleet, 3rd person)

The fleet of ships had formed a perimeter around the Ring as one ship prepared to jump.

[Permission to jump, sir?]

[Permission Granted... Vengeance... And take your time.]

The command did not get a reply as the ship jumped, and when that ship went away. A new smaller ship had come out from the command's shadow and flew to the Gateway.

[Assassin, did you get the report?]

[Yes I did, command. If you don't mind me asking, who commissioned this job?]

[...That question shall be answered after you have come back.]

[Well, I need to know what level this mission is.]

[It was assigned by both the Chairman and his Wolf.]
