Two years had passed and Sunset had passed her training as Spec Op with flying colours, she entered the throne room of Canterlot Castle. She noticed Spec Op Hellion Spark was standing there.

Celestia grimaced “We have a serious issue on our hands, a Notorious Drug Lord Tronio Fedric has taken over the kingdom of Minos to the south. Their small leaders can’t do anything to stop him from exploiting the nation, your job is to bring him to justice.”

Sunset frowned “We’ll do everything we can to catch him.”

Celestia frowned “Before you two take our chopper out there, be warned a former Sunshield employee has been sighted in the area. It’s assumed they are providing him with virus samples similar to the ones used to cause the Squirrel City incident.”

Sunset grimaced “Great, we are going to fight B.O.W.s come on Hellion we have work to do.”

Hellion growled “Since when are you in charge of this mission, I’ve been doing this longer than you have!”

Sunset frowned “I have survived the Squirrel City incident and dealt with B.O.W.s before while you haven’t. Look how about this if we don’t encounter any B.O.W.s you are in charge but if zombies or mutant monsters turn up let me take charge.”

Hellion took a deep breath “Very well.”

A small chopper with a magic engine powering it was waiting for them, the two boarded staying silent for the whole trip. As soon as they got off the copper in Minos, they heard the sound of moans as zombies shambled out of every corner.

Sunset growled “For fuck’s sake, you know Hellion I was hoping you would handle this whole mission. All I need to tell you is shoot them in the head.”

Hellion nodded as the two began firing zombies heads exploding into paste, one leapt at Sunset only for her knife to cut it’s head clean off. Sunset sighed as they cleansed the last of the zombies “I hope that’s all of the B.O.W.s.”

Hellion shrugged “Why, they don’t seem so tough?”

Sunset grimaced “Those were just the base zombies, wait until you see the mutants then you’ll change you tune real quick. I’ll lead for now just in case we gate any nasty surprises.”

Hellion frowned “Fine.” They moved through the dusty town to see a church only to see a light grey Earth Pony mare wearing a white dress and bandages covering her front left hoof playing a Cello in front of a huge beast blue strange tentacle beast.

The beast turned to them violently attacking the two, Sunset and Hellion leapt out of the way as they fired shot after shot into the beast. The creature ran away form them, Sunset approached the mare “Are you okay?”

The mare stood up with her Cello “Yes, my name is Octavia Melody it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

Sunset smiled “My name is Sunset Shimmer, we are looking for a stallion by the name of Tronio Frederic do you know him?”

Octavia nodded “I can take you to his mansion, the fastest way is through the sewers.”

Sunset grumbled “Why does it have to be sewers?”

Hellion shakes his head finally recovering from the ordeal shouted at Sunset “What the fuck was that?!”

Sunset frowned “That was T-Veronica B.O.W, they cause far more monstrous mutations than the original T-Virus does and are far more dangerous, I only heard about one from Snow but never actually faced till now.”

Hellion growled “We have to abort the mission, this is madness.”

Sunset growled “This is our job, to go where other ponies can’t even the Wonderbolts can’t stop this so it’s up to us!” Hellion grumbled as they followed Octavia into the sewers.

Octavia frowned “The man you looking for is my father, I have a disease that is incurable and he has been administering T-Veronica virus to me since I was five in order to stave off it’s effects but it has some consequences.”

Hellion pulled his gun out “She’s going to turn into a monster, we will kill her!”

Sunset growled “Put you gun down, she obviously hasn’t turned in ten years so we can be relativity sure she won’t turn immediately!” Hellion grumbled as he lowered his weapon.

As they traversed through the underground they entered a large white room full of surgical equipment and organs of other mares of Octavia’s age. Her father Tronio Frederic was a strong large grey Earth pony stallion with a dark blue mane, Octavia eyes widened “What have you done?!”

Tronio shook his head “I did what I had to, the T-Veronica virus can only be stalled from killing you by taking organs from others.”

Sunset growled as she began firing bullets at him, when the massive creature from earlier barged through. Sunset began firing at the holes in it’s armour immediately while Hellion was stunned at how quickly the creature evolved.

Hellion didn’t even notice the massive tentacle until it slammed into him shattering one of his legs completely. Sunset then leapt back firing a large ball of flame onto it’s weak point, the creature collapsed to the floor and a tentacle approached Octavia wrapping around her as if she was made of cotton it’s face smiled “Farewell, my precious songbird.”

Octavia eyes widened “Mother… no No!”

Sunset carried the crying girl as well sshe Cello on her back, she then proceeded to heft the injured Hellion onto her back as well “Well this si fucking fantastic, everything has gone to shit again.”

She carried the two towards the Helicopter a massive creature leapt out at them, Sunset jumped out of the way and placed her two comrades as well as the Cello on the ground before running at the creature which looked like a massive pile of flesh with strange arms protruding out of it.

Sunset leapt onto the beast tearing into with her knife and claws, Octavia got up and realised that her bandages had fallen of. She realised that her blood was begging to set on fire from the air, she grabbed Hellion’s knife and cut her arm open her blood catching on fire. She flung her flaming blood at the massive creature setting it alight, with her blood, Sunset lit her horn shielding herself from the flames as she tore into the beast hide with their combined efforts they managed to bring the colossal beast down.

Octavia dragged her Cello onto the chopper while Sunset dragged Hellion onto the chopper. The two fell asleep as Badass Sunglasses watched closely from a nearby hill.
