Chapter 6: The Battle

By: Wolf

(Wolf's Perspective)

It has been only moments since the first missile hit, causing an explosion of mass destruction. This little group isn't properly trained, we jumped into battle, and things went wrong, IMEDIATLY, Storm was firing the turret at the humans that were now ransacking Ponyville. I knew if they won, we would all be enslaved, every last animal. They had to be stopped. I started firing my AK-47 at the enemy and they returned fire, I was hit, but luckily, my armor protected me. I saw a grenade fly through the air and i shot at it, luckily I hit it and it exploded in mid air. But then a random human fired a RPG at me, my ninja instincts took over and i grabbed the tail section of the rocket so it wouldn't hit my new found friends. It exploded behind me. I screamed in pain as some of the fragmentation from the explosion hit my back, neck, and legs. I fell to the ground, helpless.

~-<>-~

I awoke to shouting. I have been captured by these stupid, arrogant humans. One of them was holding a butchers knife.

'Oh shit, erm... 'Twi?' I thought, hoping that Twilight could hear me.

'Yes?!' She replied. 'It's been hours since we saw them drag you away, we thought we might have lost you!'

'I'm fine but not for long, listen, go out into the plains, there will be a small hole in the ground, find it.' I explain, since there are a lot of cryo-tubes.

"You there, pony!" A insane voice yells.

"Yes?" I nonchalantly reply.

"IT TALKS, he wasn't crazy, they really talk!" several voices replied.

"Why are you fighting back pony, it would be so much easier on us all?" The insane man asked.

"You'll enslave everyone!" I reply.

"They're just animals, they don't have feelings!" The insane voice said.

"Sure, i don't have feelings... If i don't have feelings i wouldn't care that you might cut me up. Then i wouldn't have emotions, I would care if you cut me up. Therefore, i have emotions." I logically explain.

The humans stared at me dumbfounded, trying to poke a hole in my logic. They couldn't and pure anger shone in their eyes.

"No fucking animal outsmarts me!" The insane man screamed.

"I just outsmarted you." I calmly replied, as i noticed a gun pointed behind the guard's head.

"Yes he did." 'Dash agreed as he pulled the trigger of his silenced pistol.

The guard fell to the floor as 'Dash broke my restraints. Then we ran for it. As we were running I noticed how fucked we were as I saw thousands of cryo-tubes, tanks, and planes, as well as millions of boxes. We run up a ramp into the night sky. I collapsed as my adrenaline faded and passes out onto the cold unforgiving ground, again...

I awoke to less insane faces. Fluttershy and Snowflake were watching over me. Careful tending to my wounds. I accidentally let a groan out as Fluttershy pulls out a nasty piece of shrapnel out of my back.

“Oh, I'm sorry if that hurt Wolf.” Fluttershy apologized

“Nah, it's fine, I know you're only trying to help, you make a great medic.” I replied. “Did anypony else get hurt?”

“Only you an-and 'Dashie did...” She cried.

“What happened to her?” I asked.

“After she saved you from the human compound, she took several bullets to the chest!” Fluttershy sobbed.

I got up and ignored the pain on my legs and back. I walked over to 'Dash and inspected the wounds. They were still open and the bullets seemed to have stopped right in front of the heart. That should have killed her! I remembered she was wearing a Nano-suit though and I realized, that suit saved her life. I grab some tweezers and a tray and set them near 'Dash. I slowly and carefully grab the bullets from 'Dash's wounds and place them on the tray. She was lucky the bullets didn't flip and tear her apart. I reach into the medical kit and inject 'Dash with some medicine I infused with magic. 'Dash's wounds instantly closed as the color returned to her face. 'Dash deeply inhales and wakes up.

“Ugh, that was one hell of a night!” 'Dash exclaimed'

“Sure was.” I continue. “Oh and don't be getting ideas, we're even.”

“How so?” 'Dash asks.

“I just saved your life, you would have died if it wasn't for the Nano-suit.”  I explain.

“Fair enough.” She smirked.

“Oh 'Dashie! You're ok!” Fluttershy exclaimed!

“Thanks for saving me Fluttershy.” I thanked.

“Actually Snowflake did most of the work.” Fluttershy explained.

'Oh great, now the mare I had a crush on saved my life...' I thought

“Oh, really?” I ask, just to be sure.

“Oh yes, she went straight to work on fixing you up.” Fluttershy explained.

“We need to plan a new strategy.” 'Dash said.

So we headed down a level to the command room. All the computers were humming, running thousands of simulations at once. I realized we would need to find a way to cool down the computers. But I had more pressing thoughts, like how are we going to stop the Humans!

“What are we going to do! The humans are destroying the town and there's nothing we can do!” Twilight pondered.

“We could use the orbital friendship cannon, or use a Tacticool rainnuke.” 'Dash said

“Good idea 'Dash!” Twilight said as she started to rapidly type on the computer. “Gah, they changed the password!”

“Allow me.” I say as I sit down on the computer. “Since Celestia owns the system, the password is probably something relevant to her.”

“Oh, try 'Luna'.” Twilight says.

I type in Luna and a screen appears. It says

“Engaging Orbital Friendship cannon.

Awaiting coordinates."

"Do you guys remember where their base was exactly?" I ask.

"Yeah, it was in 77.0365º. W and 38.897º N ." 'Dash answered.

I input the coordinates.

"Confirm launch?" The computer askes.

I type in 'Yes' and the computer counts down.

"Firing in,

I see a brilliant flash of light and a giant explosion. With that i had damned thousands of innocents.

'No, you also saved millions!' i thought to myself.

"I doubt this is over, i don't want to say this but, this was too easy."
