Nathan and Zodiac could not believe what they were seeing, but because there was a massive evil outnumbering them, they could do very little except fight off the weakest of the crowd. Nathan especially could now see that Zodi was right about an attack happening, but still could not get over how he could see Celestia as a ghost warning him about all of this. They continued to fight as the massive terrorist crowd jumped through the blown off piece of gate, carrying RPG rocket launchers in their hands.
One killer managed to fire his rocket at a guard tower and blew it up, causing it to collapse as Skyla and Flurry Heart covered their faces from the falling glass. The other terrorist fired his RPG at the other guard castle tower and making it explode, once both towers were destroyed, the massive group of killers had their guns fully loaded and ready. Soon, they were up with their masks on and sunglasses as they started shooting their assault rifles and handguns. Some of the S.W.A.T. officers started shooting back at them, but these terrorists were professionally trained and were perfect aim, meaning the S.W.A.T. was no match and therefore several of them were taken down by rapid bullets.
Nathan and Zodiac, along with Skyla and Flurry Heart, started blasting at them with magic and spearheads, but several of the terrorists shot at them, the incredible thing is, all four of them were able to easily dodge the bullets. However, when the Army and National Guard, along with the Navy started shooting at them, the terrorists were able to mow half of them down as well.
As the massive terrorists groups continued to shoot and mow down anyone that got in their way, more guards and soldiers appeared from the thick smoke and started shooting. They had managed to take down some of the terrorists, but they were still outnumbered by the bushel, thus it was making things harder for them as they continued to get shot down and killed. Meanwhile, Kyle had managed to get back up onto his feet and quickly sprinted into the smoke filled streets where he could hear the sounds of the enemy firing their guns and rifles at the soldiers and guards who were fighting back.
Kyle held his gun in his hand and found one enemy shooting at the guards and immediately shot him down, killing him instantly. He sprinted fast and east through the smoke trying his best not to be seen by the terrorists groups who were rapidly gaining power over the royals, once he saw Nathan and the others, he ran up and motioned for them to take cover inside the castle. Some of them managed to get inside easily, including our main cast, but as a few more managed to run in, two of them got shot and killed immediately.
Kyle tried his best to revive one of the soldiers, but the soldier he helped quickly died from massive blood loss. A few other soldiers and S.W.A.T. officers, along with several rangers kept firing back at the terrorist groups. Kyle kept firing his gun at them, as well as he focused his attention towards Nathan and Zodiac who were protecting the Maretonians and other leaders as well, including Skyla and Flurry Heart. But quickly discovered that Twilight was not with them!
"Where's Princess Twilight?!" he asked one of the guards taking cover.
"I don't know!" answered the guard.
Meanwhile, the terrorists kept shooting as more guards emerged from the smoke and threw spears while the soldiers and S.W.A.T. officers and rangers kept shooting at them. Suddenly, one terrorist grasped a radio that was attached to his shoulder and screamed an order over it, then he got down flat on his face, soon followed by the others right behind him. Kyle quickly looked and saw what appeared to be a machine gun mounted on a chariot that was controlled by a terrorist, followed by another one.
"GO BACK!!!!!!!!" Kyle screamed as he saw the two terrorists opening fire from the machine guns at the guards and soldiers running out and firing at them. Soon they were all taken out one by one, save for Kyle and the royal leaders who remained in cover behind the doors, Kyle continued opening fire at them as he motioned for the remaining soldiers to run in and join them in taking cover. Once they all went inside, Kyle and Zodiac closed the doors, but Kyle sensed something was not right, so he peeked through a crack in the door and saw a terrorist pointed what looked like an RPG-7 pointed right at the doors.
"RPG!!!!!!!!!!" he screamed as the terrorists fired the rocket grenade at the doors and blowing them off their hinges. The impact from the force of the rocket managed to knock everyone onto the floor as the terrorists easily made their way inside and pointing their guns at the ponies. Soon after, they were quickly joined by the terrorist leaders who were still in their black hood robes with the hoods over their heads, the terrorists then managed to look up at the three evil leaders with looks of achievement in being proud that their mission was successful. Tirek, Chrysalis, and Thunder Clash managed to stare at the leaders and main soldiers lying motionless on the now destroyed entrance.
"Are they dead group 1?" asked Tirek through his voice in the hood.
"No boss, they are just unconscious from the blast." said one terrorist.
"Good, take them to the chambers where Twilight is, I'm sure their butts will be nice and warm in there!" ordered Thunder.
"Yes leader." said a terrorist, and they managed to get all of the leaders, along with Nathan and his sisters with Zodiac and Kyle all together and carried them away to the unknown chambers that Tirek had mentioned of. Once they were out, Tirek and the others went back outside and saw dead bodies of lifeless ponies, then looked up to see that several of their soldiers had managed to take down the Equestrian flag that flew on top of the castle. The flag had been shot at and torn up from gunfire and they managed to remove it from the pole and quickly threw it off the side and it floated down.
It had been a really bad defeat for Equestria as dead guards and soldiers, along with thousands of innocent ponies bodies lay dead across the now debris covered streets. Tirek, Chrysalis, and Thunder looked at each other with evil grins.
"Now that we have riddance of these assholes, what do you say we go down there and roughen them up on info about Discord?" asked Chrysalis.
"Yes, that bastard is going to pay!" said Tirek, and they were off to the chambers where their main targets were at.
