He was known as the deadliest sniper Equestria has ever had, and he didn't intend on losing that title. A cyan pegasus with a rainbow mane approached him, She held a Thompson submachine gun in her hooves. She tapped him on the shoulder, and He turned, and saw his superior and friend Rainbow Dash. “Hey dash what’s happening.” Gears asked her “We're getting to the location. Happy birthday, by the way.” Rainbow said “Thanks” Gears stated “Wait, it's your birthday today.” Gilda asked “Yes, it is,” Gears answered her “Why aren't you with your family or some pony you fancy.” Gilda asked “They need me on the field so I’m here.” Gears said with a sighed. “Of course leave it to equestria to make someone work on their birthday.” Gilda said in annoyance. Before the other two could make a rebuttal. The helicopter came down for a landing. Rainbow, Gears, and Gilda got off the chopper and walked through the trees. The helicopter flew up and cycled the jungle, waiting till it was time to retrieve them. Gears, Rainbow, and Gilda were heading to a base in the forest. They were looking for a defector who was at the base. Gilda leads the way. Rainbow and Gears held back to talk. “Gears you're seeing anyone recently” rainbow asked making small talk “There was a farmer, but she broke things off.” Gears said sadly. “Sorry to hear that.” Rainbow gave her sympathy. “That's enough about me. What about you and twilight?” Gears asked with a sly smile. She chucked and said “fuck off Gears” “I can’t wait till this war is over. I could properly be able to start a family after all this is said and done with.” Gears said optimistically. “Well, it's not over yet so come on” Rainbow said “Yes, ma'am” Gears followed close behind rainbow. Gilda got to a clearing. Her two squad mates close behind Gilda stopped them and pointed at a watchtower. Gears walked forward and aimed his mosin-nagant at the dragon guard. He lined up the shot and fired a bullet that went clean through the guard's head. The corpse fell off the watchtower. The three walked past him. They moved forward and got to a barbed wire fence. through the fence they saw a few patrols of three guards. their was a couple of buildings with guards posted on them. “Gears switch to your M1 garand were going in,” rainbow order “Yes, ma'am” Gears saluted and put his sniper on his back and pulled out his rifle. Rainbow pulled out a pair of wire cutters and cut a hole the fence. The three entered the base and took out three guards. The gunshots alerted the base, and the alarm barriers all around them. The three stuck together and fired on anyone, dumb enough to engage them. “Rainbow, where the fuck is the defector,” Gilda asked “He’s at the command center at the center of the base.” rainbow answered Gears shot two snipers on top of a barracks “the command center is over there.” “Nice catch Gears. Everyone head to the command center” rainbow order The three entered the command center. Gears shot two guards in the building while rainbow covered the front door. Gears and Gilda went deeper into the building. They went room by room, clearing out the rooms as they did so. They got to the last two rooms. Gears took the one room, while Gilda took the other. Gilda entered the room and Saw a red dragon surrounded by two dead guards. He was speaking into a radio, blood on his face. “Don’t worry, comrade, we are going to make them pay for what they have done. The world's screwed up and get retribution for what they done to it. Isn’t that right, Gilda.” the dragon said “What how did you” Gilda was cut off "You brailed into the room. It's easy not to miss you. You griffins have been through a lot and have suffered at the hoofs at equestra from both sides. Me and my allies want to help those like you. What do you say.” the dragon offered “Hay what the fuck is happening here.” gears asked, aiming his rifle at the dragon “He’s the defector gears” Gilda stated, putting her talon on gears' rifle “Good, so what's your name, sir” Gears asked меня зовут подтасовка (my name is garble)” the dragon stated Привет, фигня, я шестерни, мы здесь ударная команда, чтобы вытащить тебя(Hi garble I'm gears we're the strike team here to get you out)” Gears informed the defector “You speak dragon.” Gilda asked. “Yes, it's my first language,” gears told her The three left the room and ran to the front of the building. They saw rainbow dash fighting off two ponies. She shot one in the head and bucked the other one in the chest. She then pulled out a 1911 the guard put his hoof up trying to grab the pistol, rainbow moved his hoof out of the way and fire a round into his head. The now four ran towards the front gate rainbow got on her comm link and gave an order, “this is India leader requesting danger close, I repeat danger close.” “That's one way of making an exit.” Gears stated. Motors were launched and blew up the base behind them. The four ran to the LZ. the helicopter landed just in time the four entered the helo and escaped the forest. The helicopter was heading north to alpha base. Gilda looked at garble with a quizzical look on her face. He looked back at her and smiled. Canterlot, canterlot castle Spike 1455hours, September 30, 2010 Spike was being escorted by two guards. They were leading him to the war room where the leader of the dragon lands and one of the changeling hives were waiting for his arrival. When he arrived at the doors he took a deep breath and walked into the room. He saw president ember and king thorax. They were chatting about politics of their hive and country, respectively. Once they saw spike they gave him a warm smile. He was sent to be a delegate for both of them so he was on good standing with them. Spike looked down at his files, seeing if he was missing anything. At that moment, twilight walked into the room. Spike quickly took a seat as twilight took her own. “Good to see everyone’s here.” Twilight said with authority no one else in the room could match “Ok let's not pass on the issues at hand. the COR has is at an all time high and we cant have this.” Ember stated “Yes and queen chrysalis’ hive has joined their ranks making them more powerful than ever.” Thorax added “Yes, we are aware of this and I had Spike put together a team to deal with them.” Twilight said giving spike the signal to share the information. “Now the were know the COR has been gathering power since the war of crowns. We also know that general Garble is a part of the COR. now my team is the best of the best and we will deal with the threat.” Spike informed them “And who is a part of this task force” Ember asked “Colonel Gears, Corporal Woodfire, and Private Scootaloo and myself.” Spike stated “That's a relatively small group.” Thorax said nervously, “We’ve done more with less in addition. I have a contact in the frozen north who will join us when able.” Spike information gives thorax some form of comfort. “Thorax and I can’t provide you with any men. Not currently anyway,” Ember said “We’ll try to provide men at a later date.” Thorax added. “Ok, we'll send word to woodfire you can inform Gears and Scootaloo they live in ponyville like you so it shouldn't be hard.” Twilight said and dismissed him Spike walked out of the room as the three converse about other topics. Spike walked to the train station and purchased a ticket. He got a text from his wife that say to pick up apple bloom at school before coming home. Ponyville, Train Station Spike 1530 hours, September 30, 2010 Spike got off the train and walked to the school along the way he saw many civilians going about their day, some ponies, some dragons and the occasional changeling here and there. He got to the school and saw applejack chatting with Scootaloo. Spike took this moment and walked up to them. “Hey girls, what are you doing here?” Spike asked. “Hey spike me and scoots here were waiting for cheerilee to let us in. Apparently lightning and applebloom got into a fight again.” applejack said “Yeah those lightning is going to get it when this is over” Scootaloo stated “Scoots, the mission was approved, were being deployed in the next ten days.” Spike told her. “Ok, cheers can watch lightning in the meantime.” Scootaloo said, “Good we have two more on this but you’ll meet them soon enough.” Spike added The door opened and cheerilee was looking at them with a smile. She invited them in and they saw lightning and applebloom glaring at each other. Both had a black eyes. This was going to be a long week. Prep for DeploymentSomething has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.Breaking inDL, Griffon city, Safehouse 0830 hours, October 10, 2010 Scootaloo was staring at gears, seeing smoke rising from his nostrils. Spike walked up to her. He noticed she was focusing on gears. She turned to walk to the intel board she bumped into spike she fell. He chuckled and helped her off the ground. “I noticed you were staring at gears over there.” spike pointed out, “I was wondering why smoke is coming from his noise,” Scootaloo said as she looked at gears who was breathing in and out with his hoof following his breathing. “Gears is half dragon and when dragons get angry smoke tents to come from their noises.” Spike informed her. “I guess that makes-wait he’s half dragon, but he doesn't look like a hybrid.” Scootaloo said surprised “Scootaloo hybrids are rare. How do you know what one would look like and you're right he doesn't look like how he used to.” spike stated. “Well, how does he normally look like” Scootaloo said curiously “Not too different, just a pink underbelly, claws and a dragon tail.” spike described “That sound cute” scootaloo said with a blush Cute?! You weird tasted scoots also he’s single do with that as you will.” spike mention with a mischievous grin Spike walked up to the board and called everyone over. Once the crew gathered around the board and took their sets. Spike pinned a photo of Garble and his two lieutenants, Gilda and Chrysalis. Gears let off an annoyed grunt as Spike address them “garble and his two lieutenants have been plotting something that threatens the free world. Now we have two points to start on. There a house in Kalashnikov that is assumed to be a COR Safehouse. The local PD is going to turn it over. Scootaloo and woodfire are going to be a part of that. Now gears, we’re going to a COR firebase in Saddle Abra. look for anything that can point to garble or his lieutenants.” spike informed them “Permission to speak sir.” woodfire asks much to the humor of Scootaloo and gears. “I know this op but you 're free to say what’s ever on your mind,” spike said “How exactly are we going to get in with the police?” he asked “We have a commissioner on the payroll, just meet with him and he gets you in.” Spike brief Let's get going, we're wasting time.” Gears said walking to a weapon crate and pulling out an Ak 5 Dragonlands, Калашников(Kalashnikov) Scootaloo and woodfire 1057 hours, October 10, 2010 Scootaloo and woodfire walked up to a team of SPPU police, at the head of the group was a dragon holding an AK-47 with a tactical scope and suppressor. Scootaloo approached the dragon. “Hey you 're the commissioner” Scootaloo asked “Yes, equestrian, put on the armor and unless you speak dragon don't speak to my men, they don't understand equestrian to good.” the commissioner instructed A stallion gave them some SPPU armor and weapons. Scootaloo received an AKS-74u with a red dot and suppressor. Woodfire on the other hand was given an PP-19 bizon with a reflex sight and suppressor. “все в фургонах направлялись к целевому зданию(everyone in the vans were go to the target building)” the commissioner ordered as scootaloo and woodfire followed the officers into the vehicles as they drove to the house. “So scootaloo how long have you been in the EIA.” woodfire asked awkwardly “ What?” scootaloo was confused “How long have you been-” woodfire was intruded “Why are you asking that” scootaloo asked “Small talk, because I’m nervous. I haven't done this before.” woodfire admitted “Well, the first time is always special.” scootaloo joked “Any words of encouragement.” he asked abet annoyed at her not take things seriously “Always fateful, always forwarded,” Scootaloo stated in a more soothing tone. The van parked in the alley behind the house, Scootaloo and woodfire put on their visors and got out of the van. The house was a two story building with a gated fence. A griffon officer took out bolt cutters and broke the lock. The commissioner walked ahead of the group, Scootaloo close behind. Woodfire looked at the sky and the three police officers behind him. “shouldn't we be doing this at night” woodfire asked nervously “We should, but if we don’t do this now, who knows what would happen if we wait,” the commissioner stated “Woodfire stays behind me and this might get hectic.” Scootaloo advised him. The six went in the back door of the home. The commissioner, Scootaloo and Woodfire went up the stairs to sweep the floor. Scootaloo and the commissioner opened the door to the left of them. They saw two dragons and one mare. They were sitting at a table playing poker, guns sitting at the base of their chairs. Scootaloo shot the two dragons while the commissioner shot at the mare; he missed her head and hit her in the foreleg. She fell over and picked up an MP5K and shot at the two. Woodfire charged in the room and put three holes in her chest, blood pouring out of the wounds. “You two ok” woodfire asked “We're good. Come on we still got three rooms left” the commissioner Scootaloo took the lead to the next room. She took out a flashbang and pulled the pin. She tossed it in the room and heard a yell right went it went off. Scootaloo and woodfire entered the room and shot two ponies with shotguns. There were three people left in the room: one stallion, a colt and a mare. The flash had fated from their vision as the stallion ran to the colt and hugged him. The mare raised her hooves in the air and awkwardly walked to the bed next to the stallion and colt. Scootaloo lowered her weapon and walked back to the door. Woodfire went to follow her but noticed the mare reaching for a gun. She shot it at Scootaloo hitting her back leg. Woodfire put two rounds in the mare’s head. “МАМА!” the colt yelled tears falling down his face as the stallion held him back holding back his own tears while doing so The commissioner ran in the room and saw the dead mare and two ponies left alive. The commissioner tied the two’s hooves. Scootaloo applied pressure to her wound woodfire, pulled out some bio-foam to fill filled the hole. “There it won’t heal you, but it will stop the bleeding temporarily.” “ The commissioner walked up to Scootaloo “ты гребаный идиот(you fuckin idiot)” he insulted her “Sorry I just saw the foal and I just let them be.” scootaloo said hold her back leg Woodfire looked at the foal. The colt glared at him with teared stained face. He looked at the corpse next to the colt. The mare's lifeless eye stared back at him, boring into his soul. Scootaloo tapped him on the shoulder. “Come on, we got the last two,” she said somberly. “Ok” woodfire said with a shaky voice The three of them walked out of the room. Woodfire and scootaloo took positions at the door. Scootaloo tapped woodfire on the shoulder. She gave him a sympathetic look. He looked down at the floor for a moment and shook his head. He opened the door. Two mares held up hooves and pointed at the bed. Scootaloo put two rounds through the mattress before checked the bathroom. A dragon immediately charged out of the bathroom with a kukri in his hand. Scootaloo evaded the swing and tripped the attacker. He landed in a pool of blood that came from underneath the bed. She pulled out a knife and stabbed the dragon in the throat. “Room cleared.” scootaloo said as the commissioner tied the mare’s legs The commissioner opened his mouth but before he could say anything gunshots were heard downstairs. He looked at Scootaloo and woodfire before leaving the room and heading downstairs. Scootaloo shocked her head and beckoned woodfire to follow. “Ok this is the last room, wood. I go left you go right, got it” Scootaloo ordered “Got it.” he nodded. Scootaloo kicked open the door and shot three dragons on the left while woodfire shot two ponies on the right, shooting out a window accidentally. Scootaloo went to the shattered window and reaped the blinds off. filled the room with light, revealing a lot of religious and mythological text and items. “What the hell” Scootaloo said, looking at crosses around the room. Woodfire looked at a desk and noticed a laptop, a book, and files. He walked up to it and picked up the laptop and book. Scootaloo saw a painting with nine gods, three from each mythology. Woodfire called out to Scootaloo and asked her to come over. She once she did, she picked up the files looked them over “Holy shit, we struck iron with this. The Операция Spearhead has to be what they're planning. Uh I can't read it though. Come on, let's take whatever we can and head to the safe house. good catch” Scootaloo said The commissioner walked in the room and walked to scootaloo. “Equestrians, the house is cleared. You two can look around we will be at the vehicle.” Scootaloo nodded and walked into the other room. After a while scootaloo and woodfire walked outside hearing sirens from the front of the house. Scootaloo walked to the van and handed her gun to the stallion who had gaven her the armor. She was about to get in the truck before woodfire grabbed her hoof. “Hay scootaloo do you think I did the right thing” woodfire asked her with a sad look on he’s face “I don’t know” scootaloo answered usure on the answer. Woodfire looked at the house, then entered, followed her inside the van. DL, Griffon city, Safehouse Scootaloo, and woodfire 1500 hours, October 10, 2010 Scootaloo entered the warehouse expecting to see spike and gears. She looked around as woodfire, looking for music to calm himself down. He found a radio station that played the platters: the great pretender. Scootaloo walked to woodfire “looks like we're waiting till the others get back” she said “Sweet brack time,” he said with a chuckle into the heatAuthor's Note sorry it late try not I do it again into the heat Sadie Arabia, COR firebase Spike and Gears 1122 hours, October 10, 2010 Gears and Spike were on a cliff looking down at the COR firebase. Spike had an M4 with a suppressor and ACOG scope. Gears had a AW-F sniper rifle with a sound suppressor. Gears was looking through his scope and saw COR patrols all around the base. Spike saw three snipers on top of three separate buildings. “Hey Gears, what are those buildings?” Spike asked Gears zoomed in his scope as he saw the building spike pointed at “one says communication, one said Security and the one at the far end is the command center.” Gears told him “We’ll probably be able to get intel at the command center. Gears you take down the comms I deal with the security cameras, then we get into the command center and get any information on garble and his cronies,” Spike stated Gears and Spike walked down the cliff. “Spike, that mare, do you think I made a good impression?” Gears asked "Well, you were a complete dork when you first met and you smoking up the Safehouse definitely left an impression on her.” Spike said make gears recoil a bit. Spike chuckled at his reaction “she thinks you're cute. Your might still have a chance,” spike said. “Everyone constantly called me a freak. Eventually I just used the spell I used during filming. Everyone recognizes me now. I don’t like it but hey at least they don't call me a freak anymore.” Gears said, getting angry the more he thought about it. Once they got to the bottom of the cliff. They went to their specific objectives. Gears stuck to the shadow and kept moving, only stopping when he saw a patrol walking by. Gears saw two changelings throwing papers in a fire. Gears looked at a letter with garble’s stamp on it. Gears switched to his AK-5 with a suppressor attached to it. He looked at the camera. it was aiming at the changeling. Gears shot out the camera and shot the two changelings. One went down with little issue. The other one grabbed his neck to stop the bleeding. He reached for his flare gun but before he could pull it from his holster, gears tacked him and pulled out a knife and stabbed him in the head. Gears got up and grabbed a piece of burned paper. “Мы преуспели с общей миссией, и уравнения не стали более мудрыми. Мы не подведем вас снова подписал Q. Chrysalis (-ed with are mission general and the equestrians are none the wiser. We will not fail you again signed Q. Chrysalis)” the letter read Sadie Arabia, COR firebase Spike 1129 hours, October, 10 ,2010 Spike shot two cameras out and approached the security building. He saw a patrol heading his way. Spike head behind a crate. The patrol comprised one pony, one griffon, and one dragon. The patrol was about to enter the building. Spike got behind the dragon soldier and grabbed him before the dragon could make a commotion Spike broke his neck and dragged him to the crate. Spike put on the uniform and walked but to the patrol “вот ты топор, что тебя держит(there you are axe what kept you)” the stallion asked “Я поссал” spike said the two looked at each other for then they opened the door to the security office. There were three changelings in the room and as the two COR soldiers glared at the changelings. Spike noticed this but decided not to comment on it. “Ошибки выгуливают. пришло время посмотреть камеры.(bugs, take a walk. it is time to watch the cameras.)” the stallion said. The changeling left the room and went on their patrol. Spike went to the computer and looked at the camera’s. He saw four cameras that just had static on the screen. Two more went dead outside the comms building. Spike realized that Gears was taking down the cameras. Spike shut off the cameras and turned around he shot the two COR soldiers, putting them down. He looked around and spotted a ladder at the end of the room. Spike walked up to it and climbed up the ladder. The sniper on the roof noticed him. They switched to a SMG and tried to shoot him. Spike hit the sniper's foreleg, making him fire at the ground. Spike kicked the sniper off the roof. “That was loud,” Spike said to himself. He grabbed the sniper inspecting, then out of nowhere a bullet hit the ground next to his leg. Spike took cover as he checked the rounds he had left in the sniper rifle. After seeing he had about eight bullets, he looked up and saw the other two snipers firing at him. He aimed and held his breath and fired. He hit the sniper on the command center. The last sniper from the comms building shot spike in the leg, making him fall to the ground. Spike crawled back into cover and pulled out his knife. With his dragon fire he heated up the knife till it glowed red. He then pressed it against his melting scales and closed the wound. Sadie Arabia, COR firebase Gears 1301 hours, October, 10 ,2010 Gears was at the comms building. He had just finished taking down a patrol of changelings. He pulled his knife out of the changeling's neck as the body fell to the ground. Gears looked at the corpse and closed the changeling's eyes. “You fought with strength and bravery” Gears said as he did so Gears approached the building when he heard an SMG go off in the distance he quickly opened the door to the comms building and entered he saw the first floor of the building had no one in it. He radioed Spike with his earpiece. “Spike, come in, Spike, do you copy.” gears asked “I copy gears, what's the situation?” Spike said, gunshots going off in the background. Gears also hear it go off on the roof of the building he was in. “You're taking fire from my target building?” gears asked “Yes I am, you mind dealing with it.” Spike said over the comms Gears pulled out his AK-5 and removed the suppressor. He walked up the stairs and saw four COR soldiers calling in for help, Gears shot one in the head and rushed the other. He punched the stallion then grabbed him to use as a shield. The last two COR soldiers shot at him but hit the stallion’s body killing him. Gears pulled a Makarov pistol from the stallion holster and shot the two COR soldiers one in the chest and the other in the head. After that was done gears pulled out a knife and stabbed the stallion in the chests. Gears ran to the comms table and lesion in “с севера шли вертолеты.(were coming in with choppers from the north.)” the voice over the radio said “Shit” gears cursed “Spike come in we got enemy hellos on approach” “We better hurry, then I see a train off in the distance. We could use that as an escape if we made it in time.” spike stated, Gears walked up the second fleet of stairs and saw SOR soldiers ready for him. They fired at him as gears ran to a pillar in the room. Once he was in cover. He prepared out and shot two dragons that were leveling their cover to get a better position. Gears saw four COR soldiers left. One popped up and shot his hoof, making gears drop his gun. His spell wavered and his hoof now had claws attached to them, with blood pouring down his leg. The COR soldier got out of cover and went towards the pillar, ready to put his prey down. What he saw was a claw swiping at his throat. Blood gushed out of the soldier’s neck. Gears' spell fell as he grabbed the soldier's AK-47 and charged out of cover. “ALL RIGHT FUCKER LET'S SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO,” Gears yelled as he attacked. He shot a mare in the leg and tacked the griffon next to the mare. He bet the griffon's neck out as he pulled the Makarov pistol he took from the stallion and shot the mare next to him. Gunfire flowed by gears head. He saw two dragons firing at him. Gears put four rounds in one of the dragons, killing them instantly. Gears kicked the last dragon in the chest send him back. Gears aimed his Makarov and put a round through the dragon's eye. Gears looked at the carnage he made. Looking down, he saw his clothes were blood soaked. He fell back on his haunches and just started for a moment, then he heard a sniper go off above him. “Spike needs my help,” Gears said as he got up and climbed up the ladder. Gears got to the rooftop. Looking around, he saw an earth pony that was shooting at the security offices. Gears pushed the pony off the roof and pulled out his sniper. She saw a large group of COR tropes head to the security office. gears cast a single bounced spell on one of his clips of ammo. He looked at Spike's position and saw a metal poll where Spike was Gears fired at the poll as it bounced off the poll and redirected to one soldier. The soldiers fired at Spike's position in retaliation. “Gears what the hell.” Spike said over the comms “Can’t give my position away, you got grenades,” Gears said to him Sadie Arabia, COR firebase Spike 1500 hours, October, 10 ,2010 “I see what you’re saying,” Spike said as he pulled a grenade out of his belt and tossed it at the group of soldiers. The grenade went off, killing eight of the COR soldiers, the gunfire lighting up slightly as the remaining sixteen were left. Gears started recatraying bullets off the poll next to him. Four COR soldiers were hit by the bullets. Spike looked around and saw a crossbow that had a rope attached to it. Spike reached for it but had bullets fly inches from his hands. He put his hand on his ear. “Gears, I need covering fire or we're not gonna make that train.” Spike told him “What about the intel?” Gears asked “I’ll handle that you just give me cover” spike stated The sniper fire hit the COR soldiers in direct hits. The soldiers divide their attention eght giveing their attention to gears with the remaining forces on spike. Spike grabbed the crossbow and aimed it at the command center. He saw a window and shot the arrow above the window connecting the two buildings together. He pulled out a smoke grenade and pulled the pin. He then tossed it at the soldiers as it went off he grabbed his M4 and ziplined down the rope. He kicked out the window and shot the first two soldiers then had his gun grabbed by a changeling COR soldier. They struggled a bit before Spike headbutted the changeling. He then proceeded to beat the changeling senseless only stopping when the blood cotted his gun. He looked at his gun in disguised as he walked to the letter on the table in the center of the room. “Смелость - твоя следующая мишень, куколка, не подведи меня снова, иначе они будут последствиями.(Daring do is your next target chrysalis don't fail me again or they will be consequences)” garble wrote “Gears make your way towards the tracks and I got a letter you translate” Spike ordered over the comms “Got it, I’m just about to lose my tails” Gears said Spike took the note and anything else of interest and quickly made his way outside to the track. Spike waited for a bit for gears, the train was a few clicks away from his current location. Spike saw gears galloping at him. An enemy helicopter close behind. “The fuck” spike said in surpried The train was going behind him as gears tacked him onto it. Gears and spike looked back at the chopper who was following them. It was at that moment the train entered the tunnel gears and noticed a maintenance hache in the tunnel. Gears and spike jumped off the train and made their way to the hache “Just like we're home free.” Gears quipped The hybrid and The defectorDL, Griffon city, Safehouse 0530 hours, October 11, 2010 Scootaloo was sitting on a table holding her leg. She was waiting for Gears to come with medkit for her leg. Scootaloo looked around the room and spotted Spike talking into a radio, and woodfire hitting a punching bag. Gears approached her medkit in hoof. She moved her hooves off her leg so he could stitch her up. “So spike tells me your half dragon” scootaloo said awkwardly trying to strike up conversation. “Yes I am, what do you think?” Gears answered rather nervously “It doesn't matter what I think, what do you think about yourself.” scootaloo asked him with a warm voice “I don’t know how to answer that” gears said, sewing her leg up. She winced. Gears looked at her face wondering what was wrong. Scootaloo noticed his eyes, they were rosie pink she also noticed they were more dragon eyes then a ponies. “You okay” he asked, concerned “You have nice eyes- I mean yeah I’m fine just fine.” scootaloo stammered trying to fix her statement. Gears blushed which has not been lost on scootaloo. Gears casted a spell on her stitched up wound. She noticed the amount of heat gears magic felt on her flesh. Spike got off the radio and walked up to the two ponies “Gears, scoots you two are going to the frozen north to meet my contacted she targeted by chrysalis. A chopper is thirty clicks away, that's your ride.” Spike ordered Without a word they headed out of the safe house and moved to the helicopter. Scootaloo looked at gears. He had a Remington 700 on his back with a PM63 in his holster. Once they got on scootaloo inspected her weapons. She had a spas 12 in her hooves she also had an AK-74u on her back. “Gears what do think about garble” Scootaloo asked “He’s a backstabbing asshole who needs to be put down.” gears spat the words like venom. As they both entered the helicopter. “What did he do” scootaloo asked “That's a long story.” Gears stated as the chopper took off “We got time.” scootaloo pointed out. “Fine, I'll start from the beginning.” Gears said with smoke coming from his nostril Apha Base 0800 hours, November 1,1970 Gears saw a helicopter landing on the helipad. It had twilight’s cutie mark on it. Gears beamed with excitement, his normal straight mane inflated into curls. He ran to the briefing room. Rainbow dash, gilda and Garble all looked at him. “Guys guess who's here.” Gears asked excitedly “What the fuck, why is your mane like that.” Gilda question rudely “Gears mane deflated slightly “uh it happens when I’m excited.” “конечно, шоу уродов было бы скорее пони, чем драконом, и подумать только, он мог бы однажды стать настоящим воином(of course, the freak show would be more pony than dragon and to think, he could be a real warrior one day)” garble said a mistves grin on his face. Gears mane deflated completely as he glared at garble. “Я настоящий воин, ящерица-переросток(I am a real warrior, you overgrown lizard)” gears spat at him Garble with a calm experton on his face was about to fire back but was stopped by the princess come into the room “Гирс не оскорбляет перебежчика, с которым он сейчас на стороне, и вам двоим нужно научиться работать в команде. (Gears don't insult the defector he's on are side now and you two need to learn how to work as a team)” twilight scolded the dragon. Gears immediately turned around and bowed his head “Princess forgive me I didn’t mean to-” gears was interrupted “If you didn’t mean it you wouldn’t have said it.” twilight scolded she sighed and put her hoof on his chin “rise gears. Intel says cilesta on the run so I’m sending in teams to track her down. “Sweet, we're finally going to finish this.” rainbow said “Sorry dashy but you guys aren't going in, the OSS has intel stating that there's a super weapon celista has been holding. I want your team to retrieve it for me.” twilight informed “Princess, what is this weapon called exactly” gears asked “They're called the elements of harmony. It's said to be the sires hollows. You’ll move out 1200 hours.” twilight said, sires hollows Gears, Garble 1230 hours, November 1,1970 The APC rolled up to the village and dropped off Rainbow and her team, along with team zeta. Rainbow called in ordnance and a plane dropped a white substance from it on the village. The powder ignited and the fire spread throughout the village. Gilda looked on in horror as the ponies in the village were burned alive. “Rainbow what the hell was that.” Gilda asked “A new weapon called white phosphorus didn't know it did that, though.” Rainbow said, her eyes widened. Garble pulled Gilda to the side “you see how they do things, a disregard of civilians slaughtering them just to get their enemy.” Gilda looked at garble for what felt like an hour. “Gears, Garble, you two check the compound at the far end of the village. Gilda with me.” rainbow dash ordered “Yes, ma'am” Gears and Gilda said in ursine Gears, Garble, and two members of zeta squad made their way to the compound. Once they arrived, Gears kicked open the door. Garble entered the room and head left, he shot two ponies near a chalkboard. The first zeta member went right and shot three griffins. The second zeta member went down the middle and shot two dragons. Gears entered the room and noticed the room they were in. This used to be a school I’m assuming.” Gears said, pointing to the bloody chalkboard. Gears heard a helicopter off in the distance. “Pepper with me, garble, you and kicker head up to the roof and blow it out of the skis if they take off.” “в теме” garble sulited. Siren hollow, hollows school courtyard Gears 1245 hours, November 1, 1970 Gears and pepper entered the courtyard outside. There was fire licking, the walls of the school. The trees were being burned as the ponies who were guarding the chopper. Gears looked closer at their uniforms and noticed something off about them. Instead of being yellow like celestas soldiers had. But these were a blackish red color and he remembered the fact the first room they entered had stallions in it. Before gears could think of what was happening. One of the guards noticed him and opened fire. Pepper pulled Gears into cover. “Thanks kid.” gears told the riflemen Gears pulled out a PPSh-41 and began to return fire; he hit the guards in the chest. Pepper shot two more with his Thompson. Gears shot three guards. The helicopter’s blades began to spin. Gears saw the five remaining guards, they were holding brand new weapons. Two dragons were holding RPDs, two griffons had Mac11s and the last guard, a pony, had an AK-47. Looks like they have new toys” Gears quipped. Pepper had a horrified look on her face. Look kid ran to the piller over at the far end of the courtyard. I will go to the statue at the other end and we pick off the one who focuses fire on the other, got it.” Gears ordered. Pepper nodded her head and ran to the pillar as Gears charged to the statue at the other end. Pepper galloped to the pillar. The two dragons fried at her, she was shot in the flank as she fell in at the side of the pillar. The griffons and pony forced him and barely managed to grease his leg. He looked at his leg and after commiting on how much he was a lucky bastard. He aimed at the dragons and fired. Only managed to kill one of them before the two griffons fired at Gears’ position. Pepper picked herself up and fired at the griffons once they were cleared gears shot the last dragon in the group. The helicopter began to take off. He radio to kicker Kicker shoot that bird down.” Gears ordered into the radio Siren hollow, hollows school rooftop Garble 1338 hours, November 1, 1970 Kicker come in.” Garble heard over the stallions radio. After a few more calls to kicker. Gears radioed to him Garble, кикер не отвечает. сбил вертолет(Garble, kicker isn't responding. shoot down the chopper)” gears ordered. Garble looked at the helicopter and did nothing to take it down. “Шестерни мне нечего сбивать(Gears I have nothing to shoot it down)” garble stated дерьмо(Shit)” gears said as the chopper took off. Garble threw the earpiece on the ground and crushed it under his foot. Kicker was crawling to a rifle on the ground. Garble stepped on the stallion’s leg. His leg had a bullet hole in it. He ground in pain as garble twisted his foot. You fuckin-” kicker couldn’t finshed as he had shot in the head. Garble pulled out a brick phone and called someone. “What took you so long” garble asked Sorry, captain but we were ordered to make it more convincing.” the pilot apologies Fine, but you were almost caught, do make any unnecessary risk.” Garble ordered. As he walked back into the building. Into the cold PT1Frozen north, daring do’s resistance camp Scootaloo, Gears 1300hours, November 11, 2010 Gears and Scootaloo sat in the helicopter in silence. After the story gears went silent, something that made Scootaloo more interested in it but she decided not to press him “So gears, what does your cutie mark stand for?” Scootaloo asked, breaking the ice. Gears cutie mark was a stage with two ethereal lights shining down on it. “Well, its means two things: one is performing, you know, acting, singing that type of stuff and the second means- well I think it represents all form of magic, at least that what the princess has told me and I somewhat agree.” Gears said “Wait, you know the princess?” Scootaloo asked Gears chuckled a bit “yes I’m her personal student, although I don’t like to say it because of that reaction.” Gears said awkwardly, “Sorry for sounding surprised, but I don’t know anyone who knows the princess well, Spike of course, but he is the prince.” Scootaloo said “Looks like we're coming in for a landing,” Gears said as he looked at the snow covered ground. Scootaloo looked out seeing a group of six ponies, four of them were in a defensive position around the two ponies in the middle. The two reaming ponies was a mare and a stallion. The mare was a light gold color with a gray mane going from light to dark in its color. The stallion had a green mane with a black coat color. Scootaloo looks at gears, seeing a curious look on his face. Gears notice she was looking “Sorry Scootaloo it's just that it seems very well made for ponies without traditional training.” Gears stated “Maybe they already had training before” Scootaloo reasoned “I guess it might be nothing.” Gears said, The helicopter landed as Gears and Scootaloo got off the four ponies, aiming their guns ready for a fight. Gears and Scootaloo had their guns at their sides. The mare pulled down one of the militia’s soldier’s guns, which made all of them lower their guns. The mare walked up the stallion behind her. You two must be the couple Spike told me about.” the mare stated. Gears and Scootaloo blushed over the statement “We're not together” they both said, the six ponies just laughed. “Names daring-do but you already know that. Sorry, but we don't have much time, the changelings have taken over one of their camps. Now I need you two to liberate it.” She ordered the two “We're happy to help, ma'am,” Scootaloo said. Frozen north, south-west camp Gears, Scootaloo 1353 hours, November 11,2010 Scootaloo was sliding down an ice hill, coming down to the side of the camp. Gears was on the opposite end with a flare gun and a PM-63 with a suppressor with extended mags. Scootaloo hid behind a tent as two stallions walked past the tent. “Gears come in.” Scootaloo called over the radio “I copy Scootaloo” Gears said “The changelings are in disguises so be careful you never know what they could be.” Scootaloo said. “Got it and remember the commander is at the center of the camp. Take them out and I take down the defences after that I single for the attack.” Gears informed her Gears got to a makeshift sniper tower. He looked around and saw no one around him. He proceeded to climb the tower and saw a mare holding a sniper, looking around. Gears got up on to the Towers platform. Gears pulled out a knife, he brought the knife down on the mare’s neck, slit her throat. A stream of crimson blood came from it. Gears looked at his bloody hoof, confused. “Gears come in,” Daring do said over the radio “What is it?” gears spat “Are you two ready for the attack?” daring asked with a disrespectful toun “Not yet where we still need the commander and the defences, don't worry, I will single you when we're ready.” Gears told her “Fine, just make it quick,” she said impatiently “Scootaloo, daring-do wants us to hurry up,” Gears radio. “Got it.” Scootaloo said Scootaloo crawled up to the command tent. She saw a griffon with a nervous look on her face. Scootaloo looked at the piece of paper in the griffon’s claw. Scootaloo was about to pull out her knife, but then she saw some fence wire. She Grabbed it and wrapped it around the griffon's neck. The griffon backed up and tried to knock the person who latched to her back. Scootaloo tightening the wire as the griffon fell on her back. They struggled for a while as Scootaloo made the wire tighter and tighter. Scootaloo heard the griffon stop breathing. she pushed the griffon off her body. After she grabbed the paper off the ground. Scootaloo scrutinised the paper she noticed it was in equestrian, “the HVT is at the gulag at traplevania they must eliminate her as quick as possible before the equestrians find out what has happened.” “Spike, I found something that might help us.” scootaloo said over the comms “What is it scoots” spike responded “The COR has someone in a gulag in traplevania they might be able to help us.” scootaloo stated “Ok me and woodfire will look into it, thanks scoots, oh and gears is a bit nervous when he’s around cute mares so you make the first move.” Spike said slyly. Scootaloo blushed “ spike what the Tartarus” “What it's obvious you two like each other am I wrong,” Spike said “Whatever, I gotta get back to it.” Scootaloo said with a blush. Scootaloo pocketed the document and walked to the alarm. Scootaloo opened the box and pulled out two wires. The lights on the alarm flickered out. Scootaloo looked up and saw a purple light fly into the sky. It exploded into bright flames. The attack was underway. Scootaloo pulled out her AK-74u with a red dot attached to it. She got into cover as two ponies came around the corner. Scootaloo wasted no time and shot the farther one with her gun. The last one momentarily stunned by the attack was hit in the muzzle by Scootaloo. She then turned the gun back around on the stallion and shot four rounds in his chest. Three more enemies came around the corner and fired at Scootaloo quickly and got into cover. Scootaloo got out a stun grenade and threw it at three. Once it went off, Scootaloo was going to engage, but before she could a black stallion rain hell down on the three. The stallion landed in front of her. “Thanks for the help but I could have handled it.” Scootaloo stated, “It seems you need some help to forgive me.” the stallion said “Wait, you’re the stallion that was next to Daring.” Scootaloo pointed out. “Yes, I was, now we must clear out the camp.” the stallion stated. “Got it.” Scootaloo saluted Frozen north, south-west camp Daring-do, Gears 1410 hours, November 11,2010 Gears fired on three griffons, taking them out. He saw two mares getting into a vehicle, one in the driver's seat and the other on the turret. Gears ran at the two mares. The mare heading for the turret got on it and fired at him. The bullets flew all around him, some of the rounds grazing his body cut away a subtle disguise. Some of his fur gave way to scales. He grabbed the mare that had just gotten into the driver’s seat and pulled her in front of his body . The mare, not caring for her comrades' safety, shot the mare, trying to shoot through her. Gears pulled a grenade on the mare’s belt and tossed her at the vehicle. The mare took the opportunity to fire on gears, not paying attention to the grenade rolling towards the mare. The vehicle exploded, killing the mare. Gears looked around and saw daring-do, holding a black and green M16. She was shooting at three griffons. Gears ran up to her side and started firing. “Are you sure this is the right camp?” Gears yelled angrily over the gunfire Daring shot three ponies, taking cover behind a rock. “Are you questioning my skills to find the enemy?” “Yes” gears said bluntly shot the last two griffins in their area. “Clear,” one of daring mares stated “I’m confident and you should not question me.” daring told him “Really, look at my hooves: red blood last time I checked, changeling blood is blue, and it glows. Does this look like it's glowing?” Gears yelled at her. The two mares got ready to take him down. “Look, the changelings are allied with the COR but they don’t believe in their case. So the COR took it over, getting the changelings out of her and replacing them with their own.” daring reasoned “Before gears could say anything, Scootaloo and the stallion walked up to the two. “You, tell your partner here that he’s being unreasonable,” daring stated “She is saying that the changelings were moved and replaced by the COR. but that’s complete bullshit.” Gears explained “Gears, I found a COR document in the command tent.” Scootaloo said Gears inhaled and walked to the entrance of the camp. Scootaloo followed him as she passed, daring, who had a satisfied look on her face. Gears sat at the gate throwing snowballs at a truck. Scootaloo sat down next to gears. “Hey gears, you ok.” Scootaloo asked “Yeah, it's just I thought something was off but you finding that document just changed that.” Gears stated “Well, looks like we still have to deal with the changelings.” Scootaloo said “Eyup” gears agreed. Scootaloo looks at Gears noticing a row of scales going across one of his forelegs. “What's that?” Scootaloo pointed at the scales. Gears covered it with his hoof. She noticed the look on his face and saw an embarrassed blush all over it. “That's nothing, just forget about it” gears said nervously “Spike told me you don’t normally look like this.” Scootaloo stated “Yeah, I don’t, but you wouldn't like how I actually” Gears said looking down at his hooves “You wouldn’t know unless I see how your actually are” Scootaloo try to assure him “Sorry I’m just- just.” gears couldn’t find the words “It's okay, I understand. I shouldn't have asked.” Scootaloo backed away slightly Author's Note I got to fix my life so I my uploding will be incosistoned as I fix it Holding The LineAuthor's Note its 3 in the morning and another chapter coming later in the week. Holding The Line DL, Griffon city, Safehouse Spike, woodfire 1406 hours, October 11, 2010 Spike got off the radio smirking to himself all the while. He looked over to woodfire who was giving him a questioning look. “What is it Woodfire?” Spike asked “Sir may I ask, why are you teasing Private Scootaloo to flirt with colonel gears.” woodfire question, his voice getting quieter all the while “My wife and I have been trying to set them up for the past year, now that they have I’m taking advantage and trust me they won't let their flirty get in the way of the mission.” Spike told him, “now we're looking for an HVI they have been moved to tramplvaina so we're heading their tomorrow” “Sir don’t we need to clear this” woodfire asked uncertainty in his voice “It's already been clear that why were getting prep to move on this, first thing in the morning.” Spike ordered, Woodfire saluted and trotted over to the weapon crates. He was looking around in the crates. He picked up an M4 and was going to pick out a secondary, but when he saw an underbarrel attachment that had a gas tube and a thinner one coming out of it with fire at the end. Woodfire had stars in his eyes. He squealed like a little filly as he attached it to the M4. Spike snapped around and saw woodfire kissing the attachment. Spike just chuckled as he got back on the radio Tramplvana, bravo base Spike, woodfire 0900hours, October 12, 2010 The helicopter flew over the snow-covered trees, heading to Bravo base. Woodfire had an M4 with the only attachment being the mini flamethrower. Spike had a mac-10 with an extended mag and a laser sight. The helipad came into view as the chopper landed. Spike and Woodfire got off as a squad of marines greeted them “Sir, we’re Alpha 1 we're assisting you in your search for your asset.” a yellow and white stallion said. “Well, kid Give us the rundown on what's going on in the past couple of month” Spike ordered. Well, four months ago we found COR soldiers bunkering down with the zebras. After that we started seeing ponies in the zebras ranks with no strips inked on them, I might add. Two months ago we then saw them riding around in heavy armor and now they've been on the offence and have been attacking are bases ever since.” the stallion informed them. Thank now alpha I need you to look for a gulag I know that a at least three in this area try to narrow it down for us,” spike told him Yes, sir,” the stallion said as he signed for his team to follow him. Spike and woodfire walked to a tent. Spike saw Two dragons wearing the equestrian military uniform. Once they noticed him they turned to him and saluted. “At ease and fan out. I need this tent” spike ordered Yes, sir” both dragons said in ursine, as they walked out woodfire entered the tent. Spike spared him a glance as he tuned the radio to his comm link. Woodfire looked around the tent and he saw a couple of maps and communications equipment around the room. He looked over at a crate that had the words “experimental” on the box. Out of curiosity, he opened it and saw a staff with an orange crystal on it. He reached out for it but stopped and looked over to spike. He sighed and turned to him. “Permission to speak freely sir.” Woodfire asked. Spike stopped turning the dial on the radio and looked at him. “Permission granted” spike allowed “Sir, what is this staff and what is it doing here.” woodfire question “I don’t know but gears said he did make Uber weapons, two decades back one being a fire staff so that might be it.” spike hypothesized, going back to his task. Woodfire eyes lit up as he reached for the staff, but before he could a mortar exported outside, followed by an alarm. Spike immediately picked up his mac-10 and ran out of the tent. Woodfire, after getting the ringing out of his ears, did the same. Spike looked around at the carnage. Mortar fire was peppering the base with holes, and every equestrian soldier quickly rushed to defend the base. Woodfire got out of the tent and looked around. He looked up and saw a mortar coming down on spike but before it could woodfire tackled him. “Spike, get out of the way,” he said while doing it. The explosion sent them flying a couple feet away, knocking the breath out of them. Spike was the first to recover and picked himself off the ground. Spike picked up his SMG and ran at woodfire. “Thanks for saving my ass. Now get off yours,” Spike quipped as he helped woodfire off the ground. Woodfire picked up his AK-47. Spike led woodfire to the trenches. Once spike got into the trenches and shot three zebras that jumped in. Woodfire shook his head and turned on his flamethrower attachment. A zebra jumped in front of woodfire. The zebra had a predatory look on his face but it immediately dropped when he saw woodfire’s smile then all the zebra could feel is pain, the zebra screamed in agony and threw his hoofs around trying to put out the fire. Woodfire just giggled as he saw the blacking of the zebra's body. Spike looked around and saw a woodfire staring at a burning corpse. Spike was unsettled to say the lest. The gunfire was flying all around them. Spike ran at woodfire and pulled him down. “WHAT THE FUCK WRONG WITH YOU.” Spike yelled at him. “Without dropping his smile he respond “sorry sir, I just love seeing things burn,” woodfire stated in a tone that sounded as if he was a little colt be caught with his hoof in the cookie jar. Spike rolled his eyes and pulled him to the armory wing of the trenches. Woodfire burned anything getting in their way. Once they arrived, Spike handed woodfire a few incendiary charges and said “ woodfire you love burning things well this thing can release a firewall that can burn anything that gets thrown at it.” Spike saw his eyes light up and grab the charges. “Woodfire wait of my signal” spike told him as woodfire ran to set them up Got it” woodfire said as he ran to more shallow trenches. Jeez, the rumors are true about him. Why is everyone I meet never normal?” Spike sighed and followed woodfire. Woodfire set one charge on a couple of sandbags. Two stallions were shooting a mounted M60 at the zeals of zebras rushing at the base. Spike ran up out of the trenches and up a hill then picked up a FIM-43 that was leaning on the back wall that covered the inner courtyard. He scanned the horizon using the scope attached to it after seeing a tank he turned on the rocket lock on and aimed at it after a few seconds and a beep from the scope spike fired and blew up the tank. “Blow it, Fire” spike order. The stallion we foal like excitement on his face walked away and set it off. A massive wall of whitish-blue fire constructed itself in front of woodfire. He turned to see two zebras charging at him. He looked at his flamethrower attachment and changed the empty gas container and replaced it with a full one. One zebra swung at him with a dagger, woodfire dogged the swing and buck the zebra in the head, sending him flying at the wall of the trench. The second tried to tackle woodfire and countered him, redirecting his momentum with his shoulders and throwing him over his back and on to the other zebra. Woodfire turned to them and lit them on fire, “that was for the lashing”. Woodfire ran to the trenches on the north side of the armory. He burned through five different squads of zebras who had broken through the line. He set up the charge in the dead center of the trenches. Woodfire reached for a Molotov and tossed it at four zebras. Spike aimed at another tank and blew it away. A mare walked up to Spike. Prince Spike, they coming in with heavy armor is coming from the north where the barracks are,” the mare informed him Fuck, blow it woodfire” spike order. After woodfire detonated, The fire wall connected with the Western fire wall. Woodfire was going to the eastern trenches but was stopped by Spike, “woodfire were heading to the barracks, leave the charges.” After woodfire sighed, he gave the explosive to the mare and followed Spike. Spike opened a hatch that lead down to a tunnel. Woodfire looked around and saw metal walls and a weapon wall. Woodfire dropped his M4 and picked up an OTs-14 with a red dot and reflex sight attached on it. Spike followed suit picking up an MP5 with a EVO sight with a 45 round extended mags. Sir, how deep does this go” Not too deep, there's one more layer under us. Come on here over here, Spike climbed up a ladder and opened the hatch. Woodfire saw a china lake with incendiary ammunition, he picked up the grenade launcher and climbed up. Woodfire looked around at the snow covered ground and heard an annoying honk. He looked at what caused the nose and saw Spike sitting in a jeep with a M40 Recoilless anti-tank rifle mounted on the back “Get in” spike ordered, woodfire eared the back as they drove to the trenches, spike pulled his mp5 and fired it at the zebras storming the entrances while woodfire used the incendiary grenades at the opening that were thinning troops. Spike unloaded another clip into the no mares land. Spike saw a tank head towards the base. “woodfire, tank coming from the left.” spike pointed out. Nice call out sir” woodfire stated as he got on the M40 recoilless rifle. He picked up a 50. cal explosive rounds and loaded into the gun. After putting all four rounds into the rifle, he aimed at the tank, but before he could fire, a bullet grazed his foreleg. Woodfire got down into the jeep. “Sir, permission to thin the herd,” woodfire asked jokingly “Granted” spike chucked out Spike drove around the battle area while Woodfire fired his grenade launcher, burning any zebra who got through the trenches. Spike ran over a couple of zebras. Woodfire got on the jeep's rifle and aimed at the tank once again. All four rounds fired out at once. The rounds pierced the tank. Two rounds entered the barrel, blowing up the top of the tank. The other two rounds entered the cockpit and killed the two drivers. Woodfire got out of the jeep as three orange smoke trails came from the no mares land. “Napalm, strike inbound, get your head down,” a mare said over the comm link “ wait that sounds like” woodfire couldn’t finish as three jets zoomed by dropping fire on the battlefield. He had a massive smile as he looked at the flames. Spike walked up to woodfire and taped him on the shoulder. “Woodfire I’m going to head back to the tent and radio gears and scootaloo. Anything weird happens report it to me.” spike informed him “Yes sir” Gaining TrustFrozen north, daring do’s resistance camp Gears, Scootaloo 1300hours, October 12, 2010 Gears and Scootaloo entered their tent. Gears pulled a cigar from a box that was in his saddlebags. He looked over to Scootaloo and his heart raced. “Come on Gears you can do this, your can fuckin do this, just walked up to her and make a move,” Gears thought to himself as he walked up to her “Hey Scootaloo, I was thinking maybe we can get a bit to eat after all this is done.” gears smiled, his sharp teeth on full display. “Looks like spike was wrong,” Scootaloo committed under her breath “So what do you say?” Gears asked with his friendly smile. “Yes, I would love to.” Scootaloo responded, as Gray Cloud entered the tent. “You two need to-” he stopped as he notice the looking into each other's eyes then focus their attention on him “You two lovebirds need some time.” he jabbed at the two “No, what do you need” Gears question rather annoyed at the interruption “We found an old lab that the solar army held back during the war. we're going to look it over, see what we can find.” Gray Cloud informed “What does this have to do with the COR?” Scootaloo asked “Nothing, but if we find something, we’ll have one over them.” Gray answered, Scootaloo and gears shared a look, after gray left the room gears was the first to speak up “Well, looks like we're getting back into it. I’ll continue the story if you like,” Gears offered “Sure it would make the ride less boring,” Scootaloo said as the two left the tent Alpha base 1200hours, February 3, 1971 Gears was walking to the briefing tent, but stopped when he heard crying coming from the corner. He turned the corner and saw pepper; she was crying while holding a picture. He noticed her belly was a bit larger than normal. Gears approached her as he approached and she seemed to notice him. She studded at attention and saluted “Sir” pepper's voice was shaky, he could tell she was still on her mind. “I’m not here as a superior but as a friend,” gears said in a soft toun Sorry but I got to get off the base I just resigned,” pepper told him may I ask why.” gears question Its kicker me, him were a couple we hid it from everyone now that he’s gone and things are going well so I will just move back to Trothoof” pepper said Gears hesitated but said it anyway “your pregnant I can’t” gears bluntly said Yes I am he didn’t know I was going to tell him after the mission it looks like he can't be there for are foal” pepper tears fell unimpeded. Gears walked up to her and gave her a hug. She was taking a back as gears kissed her on the forehead and gave her a bag of bits. You need this more than I do” gears told her. She looked in the back and was surprised as count the bits. “This is thirty thousand bits, gears I can't take it” pepper stated, trying to give the bits back You need it more, you're having a foal.” Gears pushed the bag back to her I don’t know what to say-” Gears cut her off and said “say nothing and take care of the little one” I will thank you gears I’ll pay you back” pepper stated No, just take good care of the foal.” Gears told her, she nodded her head and walked to the exit of the base, Gears smiled and made his way to the briefing tent but before he could rainbow dash stopped him. “Come on Gears, Twilight is waiting for us” Rainbow said, grabbing his hoof and dragging him to the tent. As soon as they entered gears noticed Gilda and Garble whispered to each other. He then put his eyes forward and saw twilight giving rainbow a peck on the chick. Gears walked up to the table then taped on it getting everyone's attention Princess, forgive me for asking but what's the mission” gears asked We have a lead on the elements, there's a scientist that has been studying them. She should have them now. If not, then she will at least know where they are.” twilight said Where were heading twi” rainbow questioned There's an island off the coast it's called hippogriffia an island abandoned a long time ago after the storm king invaded it.” twilight informed Where are they now” Gears inquired Don’t know they just disappeared,” twilight told him Maybe if I get a chance, I can find them I mean everyone leaves a trail” gears offered Only if you have time gears now get going everyone.” twilight stated Hippigriffia Gilda, Garble, Gears, Rainbow Dash 1534 hours, February 3, 1971 Gilda was sitting in the ship's cockpit while Garble was staring at them on the island. She was fighting with her rifle when she heard a radio crackle, alive with garble, whispering into it. She got closer to listen in. “Good, now the equestrians are on their way now, do not let yourself be captured.” Garble whispered, Gilda pulled her pistol and aimed it at garble. He heard a click and turned to see what it was. Once he saw Gilda aiming a colt. 1911. She smiled at her and said “Gilda I know how it sounds but listen to me before you shoot.” Explain” Gilda snarled “The equestrians can’t be trusted with these weapons. When I heard how powerful they were, I have been informed my leaders and they sent some of their agents to take them. I have been ordered to keep them out of equestrian’s hoofs,” garble said What do you mean, we can’t trust them?!” Gilda stated Think about it princess twilight was raised by Celestia sure they may be in conflicted but they will have the same methods, who's to say that she won't take anyone down who she deems as a threat a massive amount of griffins took Celestia’s side what do you think the princess will do to your people after this.” Grable explained Gilda was pondering what she had just heard. She slowly lowered her pistol and put it back in her holster. Just as this happened, Gears entered the cockpit with a scowl on his face. “Someone took my sniper,” he said, annoyed We don’t have your sniper gears maybe rainbow hide it from you like a prank.” Gilda said, Fuckin dash ugh garble were 30 mins from shore slow this thing down before we cash into the dock.” gears ordered да шоу уродов( yes, freak show)” garble teased. Gears slammed the door behind him. Well, let's get ready . Hippigriffia Gears, Rainbow Dash, Gilda, Garble, 1605 hours, February 3, 1971 Gears loaded a clip into a Thompson submachine gun. Rainbow Dash held a Winchester 1897 trench shotgun while Gilda held a Browning automatic rifle. Finally Garble came to the three soldiers with a PPSH-41 with a drum mag. “What took you so long, Garble?” Gears yelled, annoyed at the waste of time. Принцесса приказала мне поставить эту антенну на вершине горы.(I was ordered by the princess to put this antenna at the top of the mountain)” Garble said calmly правда и почему нас не проинформировали об этом.(really and how come we haven't been informed about this)” Gears stated она по радио это мне( she radio it to me)” Garble lied Gilda did twilight radio this order” Gears glared at her Yes, she did,” Gilda stated. Gears, and Rainbow shared a look then Rainbow spoke “Ok me and Gears will get the scientist you two go and set an antenna.” Gilda and Garble hiked up the mountain as Gears and Rainbow walked to the research station. Hippigriffia Gilda, Garble 1623 hours, February 3, 1971 Garble pulled his blade out of the mare's neck and walked over the edge of the hill. Gilda looked at garble as he took out a small box that grew into a briefcase. What's in the box?” Gilda asked, He took out a mosin-nagant. He assembled it and loaded the rifle. “Its Gears’ sniper was going to take out the Scientist before they could reach her.” Garble informed her “Why do we have to kill her, can't we just-” Gilda asked Just what, take out your friends if you wish to keep them alive, then we must do this.” garble interrupted, he aimed at the scientist was pacing back and forth as gunfire was coming from the outside of her lab. Garble fired the sniper as the lab doors bursted open. Garble placed the rifle back in the box as Gears and rainbow entered the room “Shit the egghead dead, Gears look around to see if we can find anything on the elements.” Rainbow ordered. “Damn it we were so close,” Gears responded as he looked around the lab. Abandoned solar laboratory Gears, Scootaloo, Daring-do, Gary Cloud 1400 hours, October 12, 2010 Gears, Scootaloo and Gary were sitting in a snow transport, it came to a stop at a damaged building. Daring got out of the driver's seat and opened the back, letting the cold air into the back compartment. “Here already, well thanks for the story Gears.” Gary Cloud winking at him, Gears didn’t notice as he helped Scootaloo off the transport. “Ok everyone form up we got a job to do.” Into The Cold PT2Author's Note I'm back sorry I haven't posted in a while I'm just trying to deal with school so I don't have much time to write. also I'm working on the 2rd chapter of aftermath, hopefully I can get it out soon. Into The Cold PT2 Abandoned solar laboratory Gears, Scootaloo, Daring-do, Gary Cloud 1403 hours, October 12, 2010 Gears lead the team to the entrance of the lab, seeing that the lab was locked behind a steel door. Gears walked up to the door, took a deep breath and let out purple flames hit the door. The three ponies were dumbstruck at seeing the flames leave gears muzzle. Then, after a few moments, gears stopped and looked at the glowing red door. “Come on, guy, let's get in-” gears walked right into the door, hitting his nose on the door. Daring burst out laughing, Scootaloo joined her. Gears glared at the door for a few minutes before tuning to the group. “Ok the door is locked, and it seems to have resistance to dragon fire so we’ll split up and look for another way in. scootaloo your with daring. I will be with Gary Cloud, take the right, we got the left.” Gears oreded “Hey, you're not the one in charge here. I was the one that founded this place and the one to have a transport to get us here." Daring protested “You have a better idea, I'm all ears." Gears glared “I have no problem with your plan but Gray is with me." “Fine come on Scootaloo were heading left" as they left gray glared at daring. Abandoned solar laboratory Daring do, gray cloud 1434hours, October 12, 2010 Daring walked around the corner with gray close behind her. The two came across a hatch covered in snow. Gray approached the door and tried to open it only to find it was locked. “Well it appears we're aren't entering from this way” “Damn it. We need to find are way into this place before the others do” daring-do said “Mother may I asked why are we trying to do this wouldn’t jus-” “Stop is this not up for discussion and about the coronal gears” “What about him?” “I know you like him but let me tell you he’s not interested in stallions.” “What!? look let not discuss this here let's work on a way to get in.” Daring looked around and spotted a tube that seemed to be connected to the lab. She grabbed Gray's hoof and pulled him to the tube. When he saw the tube he worked on getting the grate off. Abandon soler laboratory Scootaloo, Gears 1439 hours, October 12, 2010 Scootaloo climbed up to the roof, Gears close behind Scootaloo saw a vent on top of a roof entrance, scootaloo walked to the door and tried to open it. It didn't budge. Gears walked up and used his horn to do a simple scan spell what he found rather surprised him. “Well were not getting in that way” “What, can’t you melt it or something” “Not unless you want whatever is in there to be incinerated with it. They put enchantments that will destroy anything in it.” Shit” Scootaloo looked up at the vent, “what about that vent?” Scootaloo pointed out “Scootaloo that's not a vent that's a chemical explosion system it separates chemical into liquids and gases and throws it out” Gears explained “Learn something new everyday but can we use it to get in” “Yes you can I’m to large for it though.” “Ok we’ll keep looking then” “No you head in I’ll look for another way in” “You sure” “yeah come on I’ll give you a boost.” Gears stepped under the vent and lowered himself a bit so Scootaloo could climb on. Once she did gears got up to full height and Scootaloo jumped, she failed to grab the legag she fell right on gears. He was about to push her off of him, but he saw where she was. Scootaloo landed on gears. She noticed that his fur felt thin and synthetic, like a fake fur coat. She looked up at gears and noticed the blush on his face. That's when she realised she was staying on him way longer than she should have. Quickly picking herself up off of him with a blush of her own on her face. “Uhmm I uhm” “Let's get back to work,” Gears awkwardly said “Right” Scootaloo shared the same toun Scootaloo got and gears back and jumped up to grab the edge, successfully this time, and climbed up she pulled the grate off and hopped in. gears heard a yell and a thud. Gears chuckled to himself and smiled “bet that would have been cute to see.” Abandon soler laboratory Scootaloo, gray cloud 1500hours, October 12, 2010 Scootaloo fell down the shaft and landed on the ground on her stomach just then a stallion walked out of the shadows. Gray Cloud looked at Scootaloo with a grin on his face. She looked up at him, then the only light source in the room. Gray offered a hoof to Scootaloo and she took it in kind. Once Scootaloo was on her hooves she looked up to the only light source coming from a large grate. "So mind giving me a lift" Scootaloo asked "Sure, why not?" Gray whispered under his breath, as Scootaloo climbed on his back and pushed the drain and entered the lab. Scootaloo looked around the room and saw biohazard canters In the center of the room. scootaloo helped Gary up into the lab. He walked over to a filing cabinet and opened it. He looked through the files while. Scootaloo walked up to the canisters. She saw letters painted on it, she cleared the dust and saw “Zerfall 7” on the canister she noticed that it seemed to be connected to a small chamber. “Hay gray see if you can fine a file labbed “zerfall” “As you wish but do you mind informing me on why?” “This canister is labbed “zerfall” its germane for decay” “I understand it. I took a couple of classes when I was a colt.” Gray was looking through the files. While scootaloo was examining the canisters. She saw two streaks on the ground leading to the chamber. She walked up to it and tried to open the door but found it locked. She walked over to gray and helped him look. After a few minutes later, Gray found a file labbed “project zerfall” he began to read from it. “Doctor chemical burns lab entry 177108 we have finished the bio weapon and it will be ready to deploy against the dusk soldiers Any Day now. I honestly don’t think we should have made this formula but what's done is done and we have nothing left.” “Well what else does it say Gray?” scootaloo asked the gray pegasus “It's written in dragon I can't translate it” “Ok, let's find a way to get it to the gas chamber to see what's in it.” “It seems like it's a power door so we need to get the power on.” “Ok I’ll contact gears so he can see if there are any busted power generators.” Abandon soler laboratory Gears, and daring do 1530hours, October 12, 2010 Daring looked around, scanning the hills for any sign of the COR. Gears were checking the roof, anyway. gears noticed daring was on the ground underneath him. He hopped down on the ground beneath her. Daring instinctively aimed the gun at gears but before she could fire gears. He ripped the rifle out of her hooves and pinned her to the wall. “Got cha” Daring stared at him for a bit. Once she looked at her passion she got a devilish smile on her face “well looks like you can do anything you want to me.” “Yeah I can,” gears said mock flirting “Well then be gentle handsome” and with that little comment gears face red and let her go. “Ok that enough” gears walked to get her gun and handed it to her. She chuckled and grabbed her rifle. Just then gears got radio “Gears this is Scootaloo. we need the power on your mind checking the generator.” “Welco scoots we’ll check them gears out” gears turned to daring and moshed her to follow him. She followed him to a far off power station that was connected to the lab. “How the hell did you know this was here?” “Every solar lab was designed to have an exterior power source. My guess is Celestia didn’t trust her own ponies.” “Ok well let's make this quick. I have a bad feeling about this.” Gears and daring got into the power facility. Gears looked around for any damage to the wiring to make sure anything isn’t out of place. Daring saw a switch that was connected to a primary generator and she flipped the switch. Power flowed all through the machines and threw the wires heading to the laboratory. Abandon soler laboratory Scootaloo, and Gray 1600hours,October 12, 2010 Scootaloo and Gray were walking throughout the lab finding anything else that can help them. The power turned on and scootaloo and gray ran to the main lab. Gary noticed a room that said security room on the top of it. Gray ran in and saw two VHS tapes two had been dated with 1979. He put them in his saddle bag and galloped to Scootaloo. Once he entered he saw her open the gas chamber. He noticed a wire that went tight and fell before he could check Scootaloo pushed him into the ventilation system. “What was that scootaloo?” Gray yelled at her. An explosion went off fire consuming the entered lab. “Do I still have to answer that” scootaloo said with a smirk. “SCOOTALOO, GRAY YOU STILL WITH US.” gears yelled over the comms “Yeah gears were good, what's the situation?” “We got CERAForces on the way. fuckers probably heard the explosion. Get out of their now!” “Welco gears we’re making our exit.” Scootaloo cut the comms and stared walking down the vents. The GulagAuthor's Note I had to write this on my phone so sorry if theirs more errors then the last chapter The Gulag Tramplvana, bravo base Spike and Woodfire 1500hours, October 24, 2010 Woodfire walked into the command center and walked up to Spike who was filling with a radio. It had been a week since Spike has been trying to contact Gears and Scootaloo. Woodfire tapped on the dragon's shoulder, causing Spike to turn to him. "What is Woodfire?" "Alpha back, they found the labor camp in the frozen forest, it’s a few miles out from here." "Good we can find the HVI and get them out." "How we don't even know who it is we're saving, sir" "I have my suspicions but I have to be sure." "So we're just taking a risk and it might not even pay off, good to know." Woodfire said with a chuckle "Yeah well let's get going we're burning too much daylight" Spike and Woodfire head to the armory and grab their weaponry. Spike pick up a RPK with a reflex sight and extended mag and a spaz 12 with a marathon Stock and a red dot. Woodfire grabbed a M16 with an ACOG scope and extended barrel. He also grabbed the fire staff. "Really fire your taking the staff." "Yes, this staff was made for me."he nuzzled the staff as if it was an old friend. Spike rolled his eyes and began walking to the helipads. Spike saw Alpha standing next to a helicopter. Spike approach the squad leader once they noticed him they all saluted "Sir" Alpha squad said in unison "So your ready for the big leagues Alpha" '"Sir yes sir." Alpha shouted. Spike smirk and turn to the leader. "Sargent we're going to look for an HVI and getting them out. Now any questions" The Sargeant raised his hoof and Spike's eyes were on him. "What is it Sargent?” "Sir what does the HVI look like sir.” "All though its not confirmed were think its a female pegasus here's a photo.” Spike handed a picture over as woodfire came up to the group. “Did you get all that?” "Yes, sir.” "Good, now let's get in, we got a job to do.” Spike said as he got into the helicopter with alpha and woodfire close behind. Once they all entered, the pilot took off heading to the frozen forest. Woodfire was sitting next to the sergeant, who was looking down with a sad expression on his face. Woodfire tapped him on the haunches and got his attention. "You okay Sargent” "Yeah, I’m okay, corporal” "Are you sure because no one has ever made a long face like that unless something is wrong?” "Fine, if you really want to know I missed my niece's wedding. She really wanted me to go, but I got redeployed before it happened.” “Well that's just bad, but look on the bright side you have a new family member to see when you get back.” "Thanks but I really wanted to be there with them.” “Hey, that kinda reminds me of a joke.” “ A pyro and an ice queen trot into a bar, one asked "Hey ice, have you heard of the bride who married a crystal pony?” "No I haven’t” "Well she's been given the crystal shoulder evanescence.” The sergeant started laughing, Woodfire joined him. As the two laughed, Spike rolled his eyes and looked forward. He saw a large strucksher coming up in the middle of an iced cover forest. Once the other members of alpha noticed it as well they all locked and loaded were weapons Tamplavana, frozen forest Spike, Woodfire 1745 hours, october 24, 2010 The helicopter landed in a clearing. Spike got out of the chopper with alpha close behind him. Spike pulled out a radio and called in an assault team to hammer down on the prison camp. Woodfire saw a horde of helicopters heading to the gulag with a quesice look. Before he could question it the sargent asked “Sir why aren't we participating in air assault?” "We have reason to believe that are HVI is on the first floor of the prison.” "That's good to know” woodfire whispered under his breath. "Everyone was going to be in teams of three. Woodfire the sergeant and the lutente are with you, the two privents are with me.” Spike ordered Spike and his team entered the prison through the northside. While woodfire and his team entered through the eastside. Woodfire entered the hall to see nothing but locked cells. Woodfire checked every cell to see if he could find anyone who could remotely fit the description of the HVI but came up with nothing. “Spike the HVI isn’t in the easten corridors were going to check the western ones now.” "That's a negative, we’re pinned dow,n we need backup” "Wilco we’re on our way.” Woodfire radio “let move” Spike took cover behind an open cell door, he peared out with his RPK and fired at prison guards. He hit two dragon guards leaving ten guards left. One of the alpha soldiers was shot in the legs. The stallion fell to the ground and bled over the floor. Spike fired at the guards and ran to the stallion. Spike grabbed the stallion as he backed up to cover. The injured pony picked up his M4 and fired at the guards. He hit two of the guards before Spike got him into cover. “Stay put and put pressure on your wounds.” Spike shot at one of the guards and hit them in the neck. The other alpha member, a mare, shot a dragon in the head with a pistol. She throws a grenade, killing two pony guards and blowing a hole in the wall. She ran into cover right when Woodfire and the sergeant came in. Woodfire hit a guard in the face with the staff while the sergeant shot two ponies with a 1911. Woodfire burned the last two with the staff. Spike got out of cover and walked up to woodfire. "Hey Wood, what took you so long” "Were came across some stranglers in the hall back there” "Well, thanks for the save anyway. "Yeah well, we're heading to-” hearing screaming from the hole in the wall. Woodfire, spike and what's left of alapa aimed their rifles at the hole. Spike looked at the mare in his unit. “What's your name, private?” "Surgery plant, sir,” the mare said "You got medical experience” "Yes sir” Pach up your squamate and get him ready to move. Woodfire, you and the Sargent go around there and find the door to the room." "Got it. Come on Sarg, can I call you Sarg?.” Woodfire asked as they ran to the other side, Spike looked over to surgery plant. She was trying to wrap her partner's leg in some clean cloth. He walked through the hole in the wall and saw showers. "Get the fuck off me, you basted's” a femininity voice yelled as a gun went off. Spike ran to the nose. He pulled out his spaz 12 and came across the HVI, shooting two guards with a Makarov pistol. Spike was about to approach her but he noticed a guard sneaking up on her. Took aim and fired a shell at the dragon. Daring looked at the corpse then at the purple dragon holding a smoking shotgun. "Well look who it is, the prince coming to save me.” the mare snarked "Good to see you too.” Spike greeted. “alpha 1, packet is secured, move to extraction now!” "So how we're getting out of here spike” "They blew the cafeteria roof on the second floor off when we hit the place.” Spike and the HVI left the showers, opened the door to see woodfire and the sergeant taking down some guards, the sergeant shot two with a revolver and stabbed a third in the chest with a combat knife. Woodfire hit one pony in the chest and used him as a meat shield and shot a dragon in the chest. A group of guards ran towards them. Woodfire pulled a grenade and attached it to the guard, he threw the pony toads the rest of the guards and went off causing the hall to be closed off with rubble. "Spike, this is command you need to evacuate now we got orders to demolish that prison” "Welco, Command we’re heading to the evac point now.” Spike, the HVI, woodfire and the Sargent got to the second floor cafeteria. Woodfire saw corpses lettered across the floor, a mix of prisoners, guards and soldiers alike. Woodfire radioed the pilot giving him the quadrants. "You never see this type of thing in the wonderbolts” "Typical air force causes the damage yet never sees the damage,” the HVI said coldly. The helicopter hovered overhead. Rope fell from the chopper and went tight in front of them. Woodfire connected zipline handle and went up followed up by the HVI. Spike turned to the Sargent. "Come on Sargent this place is going down any moment." "We got to wait for my men" Spike radio to the alpha 1 only hearing gunfire. "Sarge I'm sorry but we aren't going to get out of here in time" "Sargent go on your comms "It fell out of my ear when we're fighting the guards." Well if you did you would know they got out" Spike lied "come on we'll see them at the base" The Sargeant walked to the ropes and zipped up Spike close behind. Once Spike got into the helicopter he saw woodfire confirming the sergeant while he held dog tags in his hoof. He turned to the HVI and sat beside her. "Daring, we have some questions." Into The Cold 3Author's Note update time. Into The Cold 3 Abandon soler laboratory Scootaloo,and Gray 1600hours,October 12, 2010 Scootaloo and Gray ran through the maintenance shaft. Near the end Scootaloo found a ladder. Turning to Gray and with a quick nod, Gray let Scootaloo get on his back and hop on to the ladder. Once she got on, she climbed a bit then pulled a lever releasing the ladder from its bindings. Gray climbed up behind Scootaloo, once the two got to a maintenance hatch. They heard muffled gunfire. Scootaloo twisted the handle and threw it open. Scootaloo immediately lowered her head as bullets flew past her. “Gears we pinned down, can you do something about it?” “I'll do what I can.” Gears said Scootaloo pulled out her pistol and fired at the two crystal ponies who were moving away from the armored CERA vehicles. A round hit one pony in the leg, the other in the head. They immediately returned gunfire, as a bullet hit in her hoof. She dropped her gun but before it could fall all the way down the shaft. Gary grabbed it. “Gears were still waiting for that support!” “Don’t worry, I’m in position” as he said that a round hit a gas canister near the vehicles. The canister exploded and smothered the soldiers with an orange gas. Scootaloo quickly got out of the hatch and pulled out her SMG. wincing as he gripped it with her wounded hoof. Scootaloo ran into cover, followed by Daring and Gray. “Scootaloo what did you find” “Bio-weapon, it's called zerfall 7. We need to report this to Spike immediately!” “Got it” daring got on the earpiece, “Gears get down here were making are leave” “Got it this building is going to collapse any minute anyways” Scootaloo fired her weapon at the armored vehicles, as the rounds entered the still covering gas cloud, her rounds lighted into flames, hitting an unlucky pony in the throat. Gears hopped off the roof and cast a shield spell, cussing his fall and causing him to slide down an inclined he kept sliding till he got to a steel tanker. He took cover and aimed at the CERA vehicles but saw nothing but an orange gas covering the vehicles. “Great thing just got complicated” Gears looked at the canister he was next to and saw “zerfall 7” written on the canister. Gunfire hit the canister. Orange gas began to bust through the tanker. Gears held his breath and ran to his squad on the way he ran throget the gas burning away his spell revealing his scale. Once he got to the group, everyone looked at him. “Well you look cuter than I expected” Scootaloo complemented breaking the silences, Gears got a faint blush on his face as he checked his sniper. Gray glared at her, daring picked up on him, looked and punched him in the shoulder. Scootaloo fired at the vehicles hitting three crystal soldiers. Once Gears finished checking his weapon, the gas had dispersed and he looked at the remaining ponies. He saw five ponies, two with SMGs, one with LMG, and the last one had a shotgun. “Now is not the time to furt you two” daring shot a glare at the pegasus and dragon pony “Right well, Scootaloo keep one alive, we need answers” “Got it” Gears aimed his sniper and fired at the LMG welding soldier. Once he dropped, Scootaloo ran out of cover firing at the shotgunner, she rolled out of the way of the gunfire. She bucked a mare into the vehicle followed by two rounds being fired into the stallion back legs. She turned around and was knocked to the ground by the mare aiming her weapon at her. Before the mare could fire, a round went through her head. Gears ran to Scootaloo and helped her up. “You good scoots?” “Yes, thanks for the help.” scootaloo patted him on the back getting a good look at him Daring and Gray walked up to the two and stared at Scootaloo, daring gave her a pat on the back while Gray just rolled his eyes and said “show off” “Don’t hate me because I have the skills” Scootaloo smirk Gray rolled his eyes and walked off, Gears walked over to the stallion clutching at his legs trying to stop the bleeding. He walked up, grabbed an iron bar and blew flames at the objects. Once it finished he moved the stallion’s hooves and pressed it in the wound. He yelled in pain as Gears just focused on the next leg. After cauterizing his wounds, Gears helped get the stallion into a sitting position. “Hay, your going to be okay, all you have to do is answers some question” Gears said in a calm and soothing toun “I will never talk.” Gears walked up to Scootaloo and spoke with her “Scoots, how do you want to play this?” “I’ll scary him, you convinced him to talk” “Aah the Negotiator,” Gears joked Gears and Scootaloo looked over to the prisoner, a green glow just faded from the stallion’s head. His eyes had a green tint to them. Daring was standing over him with a grin on her face. The two shared a look before walking over, Gears looked over the stallion and saw a hypnotized look in his eyes, he snapped his claws in the stallion's face and got no response. “What did you do!” “Just a poison that makes others tell the truth, that's it” “Will it kill him” “No, trust me.” Daring said. Gears light up his horn and scanned the stallion “Scootaloo you asked the questions” Scootaloo walked up to the injured stallion. She felt the heat from the magic aura, she got closer to the stallion and looked at daring, who was looking more impatient by the minute. Then she saw Gears who was contrasting on his spell. “Can you hear me?” “Yes” the stallion answered in an almost dreamlike state “So what are you doing here” “We’re here to destroy this laboratory” “Bit of a large group for a demo op” “Were also supposed to reinforce alpha in destroying the Rebel camp.” “WHAT!?” Gray and Daring yelled in unison Gears dropped his spell, the cold rushing to the stallion's face. He didn’t react even when Daring aimed her revolver to his head and pulled the trigger. Blood splashed on Scootaloo's feachers. Daring let out a gutter scream that sounded unnatural coming from a pony, Scootaloo shook with fear as Gears went to her side. “Daring what was-” “WHERE MOVING NOW! GLOOM GET THE VEHICLES RUNNING.” Gray saluted and ran to APCs, Daring to turn to Gears and Scootaloo. “Get in now or we're leaving you behind.” Gears helped Scootaloo into the APC, then took his own next to her. Daring hopped in the front seat and Gray hit the pedal to move as fast as possible. Scootaloo calmed down and looked at Gears who were staring at daring in the front. Scootaloo scooted closer to him and tried to wrap her leg around him. A blush appeared on his face as he looked over to her. “You alright, Scootaloo” he asked in concern “Yes Gears I just never really heard anything like that before” Scootaloo said in whisper “I have but I can’t remember the species” he said in a low toun “Well that's great.” she whispered Gears wrapped his hooves around her to keep her warm. Scootaloo put her head on his neck but before she could get comfortable, the APC stopped abruptly. The two hit the back of the front seats. Scootaloo was the first to recover, getting out of the APC followed by Gears. The two saw the camp burning flames all over the tents, some were in better condition than others but all that palled in comparison to the body littered all around. Before the two could say something Daring ran to a body and held it in her hooves. Scootaloo walked up to her and put her pistol to daring head. “Why are they changeling in the camp?” “Scootaloo, put your weapon down, we can talk about this.” Gears chimed in Daring dropped her discussed, revealing the image of queen chrysalis “ Colonel Gears, your reputation precedes you” “I aim to please. Now queen chrysalis I presume” “Yes, now what do wish to discuss” she gritted her teeth Gears took a step forward but had a gun pointed on his face. Before he could say anything the queen motioned to the owner to lower his weapon. Gears moved and gave Scootaloo a look making her lower her weapon. Queen chrysalis stud up and walked towards him looking for any sigh of treachery. “So colonel speak” she commanded “We can help you. I know how it's like to be betrayed the those you think are your own” “I just lost an enter colony. Be careful on what you compare this to” she growled “The attack on bad wolf city in mexicolt” "What?” “We were searching for the elements. Garble, Rainbow, Gilda and myself were heading to a shipping container.” The fall of a GriffonMexicolt, Bad wolf city Gears, Rainbow Dash, Garble, Gilda 1700hours, October4, 1971 A gunship was opening fire at the city’s bay. Gears and Rainbow were on a transport boat heading to the very same bay while Garble and Gilda were on another. Helicopters flew overhead as explosions ran throughout the city. Garble and Gilda were approaching their objectives on a bridge. The two rolled off the transport and swam under the bridge. “Gilda, the AA weapon is right above us. Used the hook launcher that ублюдок Gears made for us.” “Got it” Gilda shot the hook into the red bridge. She was lifted off the ground and went almost neck breaking speed towards the bridge. Once she got close enough, she slowed down and grabbed on to the edge. She climbed up and looked at the AA turret. She saw three mares and one Griffon. Gilda pulled out her Galil with an extended mag and an ACOG scope and fired at the mare on the turret. The three remaining Solers turned their attention towards Gilda. The mares fired on Gilda, not knowing that their Griffon ally was engaged in a fistfight with Garble. Gilda charged a unicorn mare and sliced her throat with her talion. She immediately grabbed the corpse and used it as a meat shield. Two rounds entered the lifeless body as Gilda tossed it to the earth pony soldier. The mare grabbed it and tossed it to the side but before she could do anything, Gilda stabbed her in the temple. “Garble you-” Gilda was stunted at the sight in front of her. Garble was bashing the griffon's face into the steel pillar. She heard a nasty crunch as Garble kept going. “Garble, I think you got her!” Gilda yelled at him. Garble hit the griffin's head on the pillar one last time before letting go of what's left of the griffin’s head. “Okay, you should set the charges and radio in.” Gilda set C-4 and walked to Garble, who was covered in blood. She Got on her comm link. “Gears, we cleared the bridge. It's time to make your move” “Wilco, we're heading to Entry point now.” Mexicolt, Bad wolf city Gears, Rainbow Dash 1715hours, October 4, 1971 Gears and Rainbow got out of the water and walked up the beach looking for the docks. Once they spotted it Rainbow climbed up onto the docks while Gears got on the other side. She climbed up and saw one mare standing parallel to her. Once Gears climbed up, Rainbow whistle, getting the mare’s attention. Once the mare turned to her, Gears stabbed the mare in the back of the head. Another mare walked out of the tent and noticed Rainbow. She tossed a knife at the mare as the mare fired a flare spell into the air. “Flare!” Gears yelled “You know what they say. If you’re going to fuck up get out of the way early” Gears took cover behind a metal pillar connected to a ferris wheel. While Rainbow got behind a concert barrier. Gears pulled out his MP-63, he removed his suppressor and added a reflex sight. He opened fire on the solar soldiers. He hit three that were charging their way. Two were hit in the neck and head respectfully. While the third was hit in the leg. She fell over and into cover. Rainbow peard her head out and spotted five solers. She toasted a semtex at the five, three got out of the way, one being picked off by Gears who began firing at the group. The semtex exploded and the remaining two mares tried to run at them. They were quickly cut them down. “Clear!” Rainbow and Gears moved out of cover and began walking to their objective but before they could gears heard a grunt of pain coming from a barrier. Rainbow turned to Gears. Who was trotting to the source of the noise? Gears looked at the mare clenteing her leg. He immediately knew who she was. The mare was Commander Coze Glow. Gears put healing spells on her leg and pulled out gauze and medic bandages to wrap her leg. “You stay right there” Gears snarled “Gears, what the hell is holding you?” Rainbow turned the corner to see Coze Glow. She immediately aimed her rifle at the mare. Gears got in between the two mares. “Rainbow, we could get information from her” “Ha, like I would ever tell you dusk ponies anything,” “Gears, we have a package to receive” “Yeah, but imagine the information we can get from her. There's a prison exchange site not too far from the objective, anyway” “Fine, I’ll radio for a prison exchange. Garble and Gilda will continue on mission” Mexicolt, Bad wolf city Garble, Gilda 1757hours, October 4, 1971 Gilda pulled her knife from the earth pony soldier. While Garble shot a unicorn in the head with a Makarov pistol. Gilda walked to Garble with interest in her eyes. Garble turned to her and gave her a sad smile. “what wrong Gilda” “What did you say about Dash and Gears earlier?” “I asked if you could seriously call them your friends” “Why would ask that” “Well, I was looking around, and overheard Commander Dash and Major Gears were discussing tactics on how to take Griffonstone.” “What no way they would do that dash wouldn’t-” “She wouldn’t keep it from you? Trusted me, Gears and Dash have a lot of secrets” Garble handed over a couple of photo of Gears and Rainbow dash in compromising positions some were Dash steal and other were Gears hurting other soldiers “What but she wouldn’t” “Maybe she would but could you take that chance?" “No, no she wouldn't “How can you be sure" “I know her garb she wouldn't unless?!” She protested She wasn’t your friend to begin with you said you meet her while griffon were still fighting on the celestial front maybe she just wanted information about your people” he paused for a moment “just a thought” “No no she couldn't Garb She never seem to spend time with you as of late don’t friends do that from time to time. “She’s been busy with Gears and the elements."she then got a look of determination on her face. “We can’t let them get the elements Garb.” “We will but first we have to activate a Motivator." “What's the Motivator?” “I will explain when we get there” Garble and Gilda fought their way through the crumbling building. Although Gilda didn't know it, Garble was smiling as he cut through the soler mares. The duo got to the center of the city. Garble walked into a nearby warehouse followed by Gilda who was staring at the large device in the center of the building. Above was a hole that seemed to have been under repairs before the attack. “What is this thing Garb" It is the Motivator, it's an experiment done by the solars in the early days of the war." “What does it's do" “Well it's supposed to destroy organic matter in 100 miles, not too far reaching but it works." “You mean we have an experimental super weapon and it can wipe out the entire of the city and we're going to use it. I'm sorry, but what the fuck!" “Your right its crazy, that's why we can hook up a timer and get out without having to burn with the Motivator" “Okay then let's hurry up if you're going to blow it I don’t want to be here longer than we have to.” Mexicolt, Bad wolf city Gears, Rainbow Dash 1820hours, October 4, 1971 Gears and Rainbow were reaching the exchange site; Cozy Glow was on Gears’ back, struggling with her bindings. They turned the corner and saw dusk soldiers running around doing multiple tasks. A stallion the two recognised trotted up to them. The stallion had cream fur with a brown straight mane. Hello commander, major,... Bitch.” the stallion addressed the three ponies Good to see you again Wiz Kid” Gears said with a smile “The helicopter is here to pick up the Garbage we also have a truck waiting for you two.” Gears walked to the helicopter with Coze Glow on his back wiggling all the while, Once the two were out of earshot Rainbow pulled Whizkid to the side “so have you asked him out yet?” “No, I don't even know if he likes stallions, not many stallions swing that way.” “Well shit, I had bits down on this for fuck's sakes” “What?!” “Nothing, I’m just going to check in on Gilda” rainbow got on her comms but got nothing but static A stallion began to approach the two. They looked over to him and began to stare at the newcomer. He was a stallion pegasus with blue fur and a dark blue mane. Wizkid blushed and walked behind Rainbow. He walked closer to the two, then spoke. “What are you two talking about?” “Nothing curls come on Gears is properly waiting for us” The helicopter took off with the solar commander on board, as the three ponies group up with Gears then head to the transport. Gears drove the truck while Rainbow was on the gun that was mounted on the tailgate. Curly wind was sitting in the passenger seat next to him. "Happy birthbay Major " “Thanks, So Curly hows the 432th been doing” “The battalion seems to be doing well but you should know that you helped us out of that one nice song by the way” “Thanks, I almost forgot about that” “How that was about a week ago.” “For you maybe~” Gears smirked After a couple of hours had gone by and the group Got to the shipping yard it was as far from the city. Everyone got out of the truck. Gears walked up to the open gate with a scowl on his face. Rainbow followed his gaze and saw a lock on the ground. Gears turned to the other two stallions “Curly, Wiz you two keep guard Rainbow we have to be caution we don’t know what could be here” Mexicolt, Bad wolf city Gears, Rainbow Dash, Garble, Gilda 2011hours, October 4, 1971 Gilda and Garble walked to a Red shipping container, it had a symbol of a sword and a scythe clashing together and with the initials C.O.R under it. Garble walked to the doors and released the latches. Once the doors were opened, Garble and Gilda walked into the metal container. They saw a single crate with the celestial creste plaster all over it. Garble walked to the crate and opened it. It healed six gems within it, all the Gems we’re shaped into symbols. A purple gem was in the shape of a diamond, the next was a blue balloon. Then Gilda got to a red lighting bolt recognizing it to be rainbow dash’s cutie mark. “Fuck garb we need to hury up hear” Gilda said with a nerves toun in her voice Garble was about to respond but was stop by a voice “And why is that” Gears asked anger in his voice. “Shit!” “Gears the princess’ Pet” “I know it we couldn’t trusted you” “Of course you couldn’t you Dusk sheil” Rainbow turned the corner and aimed her thompson at the two. “Dash just wait” “Wait!? What the fuck Gilda you turned on us Gears said you would be compromised but I never expected this” Garble reched for his gun and immediately aimed it at Gears and fired but before it could hit it Rainbow pushed him to the side taking the hit in the back instead. Gears rushed over to her trying to stop the bleeding. Gilda was freaking out but a claw was put on her shoulder. Gilda immediately followed him. GILDA YOU FUCK COME HERE AND HELP ME!” Gears yelled, putting pressure on Rainbow’s wound. Gilda looked at Rainbow on the ground. a tear formed in her eyes but Garble grabbed her tallion and they both ran with the elements on Garble's person. Gears was holding Rainbow. He was about to find something to stop the bleeding. An incendiary grenade was tossed in. Gears picked up Dash and ran out narrow avoiding the explosion. Gears looked up to see the shipping yard was up in flames. Gears picked up Rainbow and ran to the entrance. He ran through fire and gaps. Once he got into the gate he found two bodies on the ground, blood pouring from the corpses wounds. A big boom rumbled through the air as the city and the surrounding area was engulfed in a blinding gold light. Gears was dumbstruck.
PrologueAuthor's Note here come a remake (just fix some grammer) Prologue Gloom forest Rainbow dash, Gears, Gilda, 1250hours, October 4,1970 Gears was adjusting his scope. He was known as the deadliest sniper Equestria has ever had, and he didn't intend on losing that title. A cyan pegasus with a rainbow mane approached him, She held a Thompson submachine gun in her hooves. She tapped him on the shoulder, and He turned, and saw his superior and friend Rainbow Dash. “Hey dash what’s happening.” Gears asked her “We're getting to the location. Happy birthday, by the way.” Rainbow said “Thanks” Gears stated “Wait, it's your birthday today.” Gilda asked “Yes, it is,” Gears answered her “Why aren't you with your family or some pony you fancy.” Gilda asked “They need me on the field so I’m here.” Gears said with a sighed. “Of course leave it to equestria to make someone work on their birthday.” Gilda said in annoyance. Before the other two could make a rebuttal. The helicopter came down for a landing. Rainbow, Gears, and Gilda got off the chopper and walked through the trees. The helicopter flew up and cycled the jungle, waiting till it was time to retrieve them. Gears, Rainbow, and Gilda were heading to a base in the forest. They were looking for a defector who was at the base. Gilda leads the way. Rainbow and Gears held back to talk. “Gears you're seeing anyone recently” rainbow asked making small talk “There was a farmer, but she broke things off.” Gears said sadly. “Sorry to hear that.” Rainbow gave her sympathy. “That's enough about me. What about you and twilight?” Gears asked with a sly smile. She chucked and said “fuck off Gears” “I can’t wait till this war is over. I could properly be able to start a family after all this is said and done with.” Gears said optimistically. “Well, it's not over yet so come on” Rainbow said “Yes, ma'am” Gears followed close behind rainbow. Gilda got to a clearing. Her two squad mates close behind Gilda stopped them and pointed at a watchtower. Gears walked forward and aimed his mosin-nagant at the dragon guard. He lined up the shot and fired a bullet that went clean through the guard's head. The corpse fell off the watchtower. The three walked past him. They moved forward and got to a barbed wire fence. through the fence they saw a few patrols of three guards. their was a couple of buildings with guards posted on them. “Gears switch to your M1 garand were going in,” rainbow order “Yes, ma'am” Gears saluted and put his sniper on his back and pulled out his rifle. Rainbow pulled out a pair of wire cutters and cut a hole the fence. The three entered the base and took out three guards. The gunshots alerted the base, and the alarm barriers all around them. The three stuck together and fired on anyone, dumb enough to engage them. “Rainbow, where the fuck is the defector,” Gilda asked “He’s at the command center at the center of the base.” rainbow answered Gears shot two snipers on top of a barracks “the command center is over there.” “Nice catch Gears. Everyone head to the command center” rainbow order The three entered the command center. Gears shot two guards in the building while rainbow covered the front door. Gears and Gilda went deeper into the building. They went room by room, clearing out the rooms as they did so. They got to the last two rooms. Gears took the one room, while Gilda took the other. Gilda entered the room and Saw a red dragon surrounded by two dead guards. He was speaking into a radio, blood on his face. “Don’t worry, comrade, we are going to make them pay for what they have done. The world's screwed up and get retribution for what they done to it. Isn’t that right, Gilda.” the dragon said “What how did you” Gilda was cut off "You brailed into the room. It's easy not to miss you. You griffins have been through a lot and have suffered at the hoofs at equestra from both sides. Me and my allies want to help those like you. What do you say.” the dragon offered “Hay what the fuck is happening here.” gears asked, aiming his rifle at the dragon “He’s the defector gears” Gilda stated, putting her talon on gears' rifle “Good, so what's your name, sir” Gears asked меня зовут подтасовка (my name is garble)” the dragon stated Привет, фигня, я шестерни, мы здесь ударная команда, чтобы вытащить тебя(Hi garble I'm gears we're the strike team here to get you out)” Gears informed the defector “You speak dragon.” Gilda asked. “Yes, it's my first language,” gears told her The three left the room and ran to the front of the building. They saw rainbow dash fighting off two ponies. She shot one in the head and bucked the other one in the chest. She then pulled out a 1911 the guard put his hoof up trying to grab the pistol, rainbow moved his hoof out of the way and fire a round into his head. The now four ran towards the front gate rainbow got on her comm link and gave an order, “this is India leader requesting danger close, I repeat danger close.” “That's one way of making an exit.” Gears stated. Motors were launched and blew up the base behind them. The four ran to the LZ. the helicopter landed just in time the four entered the helo and escaped the forest. The helicopter was heading north to alpha base. Gilda looked at garble with a quizzical look on her face. He looked back at her and smiled. Canterlot, canterlot castle Spike 1455hours, September 30, 2010 Spike was being escorted by two guards. They were leading him to the war room where the leader of the dragon lands and one of the changeling hives were waiting for his arrival. When he arrived at the doors he took a deep breath and walked into the room. He saw president ember and king thorax. They were chatting about politics of their hive and country, respectively. Once they saw spike they gave him a warm smile. He was sent to be a delegate for both of them so he was on good standing with them. Spike looked down at his files, seeing if he was missing anything. At that moment, twilight walked into the room. Spike quickly took a seat as twilight took her own. “Good to see everyone’s here.” Twilight said with authority no one else in the room could match “Ok let's not pass on the issues at hand. the COR has is at an all time high and we cant have this.” Ember stated “Yes and queen chrysalis’ hive has joined their ranks making them more powerful than ever.” Thorax added “Yes, we are aware of this and I had Spike put together a team to deal with them.” Twilight said giving spike the signal to share the information. “Now the were know the COR has been gathering power since the war of crowns. We also know that general Garble is a part of the COR. now my team is the best of the best and we will deal with the threat.” Spike informed them “And who is a part of this task force” Ember asked “Colonel Gears, Corporal Woodfire, and Private Scootaloo and myself.” Spike stated “That's a relatively small group.” Thorax said nervously, “We’ve done more with less in addition. I have a contact in the frozen north who will join us when able.” Spike information gives thorax some form of comfort. “Thorax and I can’t provide you with any men. Not currently anyway,” Ember said “We’ll try to provide men at a later date.” Thorax added. “Ok, we'll send word to woodfire you can inform Gears and Scootaloo they live in ponyville like you so it shouldn't be hard.” Twilight said and dismissed him Spike walked out of the room as the three converse about other topics. Spike walked to the train station and purchased a ticket. He got a text from his wife that say to pick up apple bloom at school before coming home. Ponyville, Train Station Spike 1530 hours, September 30, 2010 Spike got off the train and walked to the school along the way he saw many civilians going about their day, some ponies, some dragons and the occasional changeling here and there. He got to the school and saw applejack chatting with Scootaloo. Spike took this moment and walked up to them. “Hey girls, what are you doing here?” Spike asked. “Hey spike me and scoots here were waiting for cheerilee to let us in. Apparently lightning and applebloom got into a fight again.” applejack said “Yeah those lightning is going to get it when this is over” Scootaloo stated “Scoots, the mission was approved, were being deployed in the next ten days.” Spike told her. “Ok, cheers can watch lightning in the meantime.” Scootaloo said, “Good we have two more on this but you’ll meet them soon enough.” Spike added The door opened and cheerilee was looking at them with a smile. She invited them in and they saw lightning and applebloom glaring at each other. Both had a black eyes. This was going to be a long week.
Breaking inDL, Griffon city, Safehouse 0830 hours, October 10, 2010 Scootaloo was staring at gears, seeing smoke rising from his nostrils. Spike walked up to her. He noticed she was focusing on gears. She turned to walk to the intel board she bumped into spike she fell. He chuckled and helped her off the ground. “I noticed you were staring at gears over there.” spike pointed out, “I was wondering why smoke is coming from his noise,” Scootaloo said as she looked at gears who was breathing in and out with his hoof following his breathing. “Gears is half dragon and when dragons get angry smoke tents to come from their noises.” Spike informed her. “I guess that makes-wait he’s half dragon, but he doesn't look like a hybrid.” Scootaloo said surprised “Scootaloo hybrids are rare. How do you know what one would look like and you're right he doesn't look like how he used to.” spike stated. “Well, how does he normally look like” Scootaloo said curiously “Not too different, just a pink underbelly, claws and a dragon tail.” spike described “That sound cute” scootaloo said with a blush Cute?! You weird tasted scoots also he’s single do with that as you will.” spike mention with a mischievous grin Spike walked up to the board and called everyone over. Once the crew gathered around the board and took their sets. Spike pinned a photo of Garble and his two lieutenants, Gilda and Chrysalis. Gears let off an annoyed grunt as Spike address them “garble and his two lieutenants have been plotting something that threatens the free world. Now we have two points to start on. There a house in Kalashnikov that is assumed to be a COR Safehouse. The local PD is going to turn it over. Scootaloo and woodfire are going to be a part of that. Now gears, we’re going to a COR firebase in Saddle Abra. look for anything that can point to garble or his lieutenants.” spike informed them “Permission to speak sir.” woodfire asks much to the humor of Scootaloo and gears. “I know this op but you 're free to say what’s ever on your mind,” spike said “How exactly are we going to get in with the police?” he asked “We have a commissioner on the payroll, just meet with him and he gets you in.” Spike brief Let's get going, we're wasting time.” Gears said walking to a weapon crate and pulling out an Ak 5 Dragonlands, Калашников(Kalashnikov) Scootaloo and woodfire 1057 hours, October 10, 2010 Scootaloo and woodfire walked up to a team of SPPU police, at the head of the group was a dragon holding an AK-47 with a tactical scope and suppressor. Scootaloo approached the dragon. “Hey you 're the commissioner” Scootaloo asked “Yes, equestrian, put on the armor and unless you speak dragon don't speak to my men, they don't understand equestrian to good.” the commissioner instructed A stallion gave them some SPPU armor and weapons. Scootaloo received an AKS-74u with a red dot and suppressor. Woodfire on the other hand was given an PP-19 bizon with a reflex sight and suppressor. “все в фургонах направлялись к целевому зданию(everyone in the vans were go to the target building)” the commissioner ordered as scootaloo and woodfire followed the officers into the vehicles as they drove to the house. “So scootaloo how long have you been in the EIA.” woodfire asked awkwardly “ What?” scootaloo was confused “How long have you been-” woodfire was intruded “Why are you asking that” scootaloo asked “Small talk, because I’m nervous. I haven't done this before.” woodfire admitted “Well, the first time is always special.” scootaloo joked “Any words of encouragement.” he asked abet annoyed at her not take things seriously “Always fateful, always forwarded,” Scootaloo stated in a more soothing tone. The van parked in the alley behind the house, Scootaloo and woodfire put on their visors and got out of the van. The house was a two story building with a gated fence. A griffon officer took out bolt cutters and broke the lock. The commissioner walked ahead of the group, Scootaloo close behind. Woodfire looked at the sky and the three police officers behind him. “shouldn't we be doing this at night” woodfire asked nervously “We should, but if we don’t do this now, who knows what would happen if we wait,” the commissioner stated “Woodfire stays behind me and this might get hectic.” Scootaloo advised him. The six went in the back door of the home. The commissioner, Scootaloo and Woodfire went up the stairs to sweep the floor. Scootaloo and the commissioner opened the door to the left of them. They saw two dragons and one mare. They were sitting at a table playing poker, guns sitting at the base of their chairs. Scootaloo shot the two dragons while the commissioner shot at the mare; he missed her head and hit her in the foreleg. She fell over and picked up an MP5K and shot at the two. Woodfire charged in the room and put three holes in her chest, blood pouring out of the wounds. “You two ok” woodfire asked “We're good. Come on we still got three rooms left” the commissioner Scootaloo took the lead to the next room. She took out a flashbang and pulled the pin. She tossed it in the room and heard a yell right went it went off. Scootaloo and woodfire entered the room and shot two ponies with shotguns. There were three people left in the room: one stallion, a colt and a mare. The flash had fated from their vision as the stallion ran to the colt and hugged him. The mare raised her hooves in the air and awkwardly walked to the bed next to the stallion and colt. Scootaloo lowered her weapon and walked back to the door. Woodfire went to follow her but noticed the mare reaching for a gun. She shot it at Scootaloo hitting her back leg. Woodfire put two rounds in the mare’s head. “МАМА!” the colt yelled tears falling down his face as the stallion held him back holding back his own tears while doing so The commissioner ran in the room and saw the dead mare and two ponies left alive. The commissioner tied the two’s hooves. Scootaloo applied pressure to her wound woodfire, pulled out some bio-foam to fill filled the hole. “There it won’t heal you, but it will stop the bleeding temporarily.” “ The commissioner walked up to Scootaloo “ты гребаный идиот(you fuckin idiot)” he insulted her “Sorry I just saw the foal and I just let them be.” scootaloo said hold her back leg Woodfire looked at the foal. The colt glared at him with teared stained face. He looked at the corpse next to the colt. The mare's lifeless eye stared back at him, boring into his soul. Scootaloo tapped him on the shoulder. “Come on, we got the last two,” she said somberly. “Ok” woodfire said with a shaky voice The three of them walked out of the room. Woodfire and scootaloo took positions at the door. Scootaloo tapped woodfire on the shoulder. She gave him a sympathetic look. He looked down at the floor for a moment and shook his head. He opened the door. Two mares held up hooves and pointed at the bed. Scootaloo put two rounds through the mattress before checked the bathroom. A dragon immediately charged out of the bathroom with a kukri in his hand. Scootaloo evaded the swing and tripped the attacker. He landed in a pool of blood that came from underneath the bed. She pulled out a knife and stabbed the dragon in the throat. “Room cleared.” scootaloo said as the commissioner tied the mare’s legs The commissioner opened his mouth but before he could say anything gunshots were heard downstairs. He looked at Scootaloo and woodfire before leaving the room and heading downstairs. Scootaloo shocked her head and beckoned woodfire to follow. “Ok this is the last room, wood. I go left you go right, got it” Scootaloo ordered “Got it.” he nodded. Scootaloo kicked open the door and shot three dragons on the left while woodfire shot two ponies on the right, shooting out a window accidentally. Scootaloo went to the shattered window and reaped the blinds off. filled the room with light, revealing a lot of religious and mythological text and items. “What the hell” Scootaloo said, looking at crosses around the room. Woodfire looked at a desk and noticed a laptop, a book, and files. He walked up to it and picked up the laptop and book. Scootaloo saw a painting with nine gods, three from each mythology. Woodfire called out to Scootaloo and asked her to come over. She once she did, she picked up the files looked them over “Holy shit, we struck iron with this. The Операция Spearhead has to be what they're planning. Uh I can't read it though. Come on, let's take whatever we can and head to the safe house. good catch” Scootaloo said The commissioner walked in the room and walked to scootaloo. “Equestrians, the house is cleared. You two can look around we will be at the vehicle.” Scootaloo nodded and walked into the other room. After a while scootaloo and woodfire walked outside hearing sirens from the front of the house. Scootaloo walked to the van and handed her gun to the stallion who had gaven her the armor. She was about to get in the truck before woodfire grabbed her hoof. “Hay scootaloo do you think I did the right thing” woodfire asked her with a sad look on he’s face “I don’t know” scootaloo answered usure on the answer. Woodfire looked at the house, then entered, followed her inside the van. DL, Griffon city, Safehouse Scootaloo, and woodfire 1500 hours, October 10, 2010 Scootaloo entered the warehouse expecting to see spike and gears. She looked around as woodfire, looking for music to calm himself down. He found a radio station that played the platters: the great pretender. Scootaloo walked to woodfire “looks like we're waiting till the others get back” she said “Sweet brack time,” he said with a chuckle
into the heatAuthor's Note sorry it late try not I do it again into the heat Sadie Arabia, COR firebase Spike and Gears 1122 hours, October 10, 2010 Gears and Spike were on a cliff looking down at the COR firebase. Spike had an M4 with a suppressor and ACOG scope. Gears had a AW-F sniper rifle with a sound suppressor. Gears was looking through his scope and saw COR patrols all around the base. Spike saw three snipers on top of three separate buildings. “Hey Gears, what are those buildings?” Spike asked Gears zoomed in his scope as he saw the building spike pointed at “one says communication, one said Security and the one at the far end is the command center.” Gears told him “We’ll probably be able to get intel at the command center. Gears you take down the comms I deal with the security cameras, then we get into the command center and get any information on garble and his cronies,” Spike stated Gears and Spike walked down the cliff. “Spike, that mare, do you think I made a good impression?” Gears asked "Well, you were a complete dork when you first met and you smoking up the Safehouse definitely left an impression on her.” Spike said make gears recoil a bit. Spike chuckled at his reaction “she thinks you're cute. Your might still have a chance,” spike said. “Everyone constantly called me a freak. Eventually I just used the spell I used during filming. Everyone recognizes me now. I don’t like it but hey at least they don't call me a freak anymore.” Gears said, getting angry the more he thought about it. Once they got to the bottom of the cliff. They went to their specific objectives. Gears stuck to the shadow and kept moving, only stopping when he saw a patrol walking by. Gears saw two changelings throwing papers in a fire. Gears looked at a letter with garble’s stamp on it. Gears switched to his AK-5 with a suppressor attached to it. He looked at the camera. it was aiming at the changeling. Gears shot out the camera and shot the two changelings. One went down with little issue. The other one grabbed his neck to stop the bleeding. He reached for his flare gun but before he could pull it from his holster, gears tacked him and pulled out a knife and stabbed him in the head. Gears got up and grabbed a piece of burned paper. “Мы преуспели с общей миссией, и уравнения не стали более мудрыми. Мы не подведем вас снова подписал Q. Chrysalis (-ed with are mission general and the equestrians are none the wiser. We will not fail you again signed Q. Chrysalis)” the letter read Sadie Arabia, COR firebase Spike 1129 hours, October, 10 ,2010 Spike shot two cameras out and approached the security building. He saw a patrol heading his way. Spike head behind a crate. The patrol comprised one pony, one griffon, and one dragon. The patrol was about to enter the building. Spike got behind the dragon soldier and grabbed him before the dragon could make a commotion Spike broke his neck and dragged him to the crate. Spike put on the uniform and walked but to the patrol “вот ты топор, что тебя держит(there you are axe what kept you)” the stallion asked “Я поссал” spike said the two looked at each other for then they opened the door to the security office. There were three changelings in the room and as the two COR soldiers glared at the changelings. Spike noticed this but decided not to comment on it. “Ошибки выгуливают. пришло время посмотреть камеры.(bugs, take a walk. it is time to watch the cameras.)” the stallion said. The changeling left the room and went on their patrol. Spike went to the computer and looked at the camera’s. He saw four cameras that just had static on the screen. Two more went dead outside the comms building. Spike realized that Gears was taking down the cameras. Spike shut off the cameras and turned around he shot the two COR soldiers, putting them down. He looked around and spotted a ladder at the end of the room. Spike walked up to it and climbed up the ladder. The sniper on the roof noticed him. They switched to a SMG and tried to shoot him. Spike hit the sniper's foreleg, making him fire at the ground. Spike kicked the sniper off the roof. “That was loud,” Spike said to himself. He grabbed the sniper inspecting, then out of nowhere a bullet hit the ground next to his leg. Spike took cover as he checked the rounds he had left in the sniper rifle. After seeing he had about eight bullets, he looked up and saw the other two snipers firing at him. He aimed and held his breath and fired. He hit the sniper on the command center. The last sniper from the comms building shot spike in the leg, making him fall to the ground. Spike crawled back into cover and pulled out his knife. With his dragon fire he heated up the knife till it glowed red. He then pressed it against his melting scales and closed the wound. Sadie Arabia, COR firebase Gears 1301 hours, October, 10 ,2010 Gears was at the comms building. He had just finished taking down a patrol of changelings. He pulled his knife out of the changeling's neck as the body fell to the ground. Gears looked at the corpse and closed the changeling's eyes. “You fought with strength and bravery” Gears said as he did so Gears approached the building when he heard an SMG go off in the distance he quickly opened the door to the comms building and entered he saw the first floor of the building had no one in it. He radioed Spike with his earpiece. “Spike, come in, Spike, do you copy.” gears asked “I copy gears, what's the situation?” Spike said, gunshots going off in the background. Gears also hear it go off on the roof of the building he was in. “You're taking fire from my target building?” gears asked “Yes I am, you mind dealing with it.” Spike said over the comms Gears pulled out his AK-5 and removed the suppressor. He walked up the stairs and saw four COR soldiers calling in for help, Gears shot one in the head and rushed the other. He punched the stallion then grabbed him to use as a shield. The last two COR soldiers shot at him but hit the stallion’s body killing him. Gears pulled a Makarov pistol from the stallion holster and shot the two COR soldiers one in the chest and the other in the head. After that was done gears pulled out a knife and stabbed the stallion in the chests. Gears ran to the comms table and lesion in “с севера шли вертолеты.(were coming in with choppers from the north.)” the voice over the radio said “Shit” gears cursed “Spike come in we got enemy hellos on approach” “We better hurry, then I see a train off in the distance. We could use that as an escape if we made it in time.” spike stated, Gears walked up the second fleet of stairs and saw SOR soldiers ready for him. They fired at him as gears ran to a pillar in the room. Once he was in cover. He prepared out and shot two dragons that were leveling their cover to get a better position. Gears saw four COR soldiers left. One popped up and shot his hoof, making gears drop his gun. His spell wavered and his hoof now had claws attached to them, with blood pouring down his leg. The COR soldier got out of cover and went towards the pillar, ready to put his prey down. What he saw was a claw swiping at his throat. Blood gushed out of the soldier’s neck. Gears' spell fell as he grabbed the soldier's AK-47 and charged out of cover. “ALL RIGHT FUCKER LET'S SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO,” Gears yelled as he attacked. He shot a mare in the leg and tacked the griffon next to the mare. He bet the griffon's neck out as he pulled the Makarov pistol he took from the stallion and shot the mare next to him. Gunfire flowed by gears head. He saw two dragons firing at him. Gears put four rounds in one of the dragons, killing them instantly. Gears kicked the last dragon in the chest send him back. Gears aimed his Makarov and put a round through the dragon's eye. Gears looked at the carnage he made. Looking down, he saw his clothes were blood soaked. He fell back on his haunches and just started for a moment, then he heard a sniper go off above him. “Spike needs my help,” Gears said as he got up and climbed up the ladder. Gears got to the rooftop. Looking around, he saw an earth pony that was shooting at the security offices. Gears pushed the pony off the roof and pulled out his sniper. She saw a large group of COR tropes head to the security office. gears cast a single bounced spell on one of his clips of ammo. He looked at Spike's position and saw a metal poll where Spike was Gears fired at the poll as it bounced off the poll and redirected to one soldier. The soldiers fired at Spike's position in retaliation. “Gears what the hell.” Spike said over the comms “Can’t give my position away, you got grenades,” Gears said to him Sadie Arabia, COR firebase Spike 1500 hours, October, 10 ,2010 “I see what you’re saying,” Spike said as he pulled a grenade out of his belt and tossed it at the group of soldiers. The grenade went off, killing eight of the COR soldiers, the gunfire lighting up slightly as the remaining sixteen were left. Gears started recatraying bullets off the poll next to him. Four COR soldiers were hit by the bullets. Spike looked around and saw a crossbow that had a rope attached to it. Spike reached for it but had bullets fly inches from his hands. He put his hand on his ear. “Gears, I need covering fire or we're not gonna make that train.” Spike told him “What about the intel?” Gears asked “I’ll handle that you just give me cover” spike stated The sniper fire hit the COR soldiers in direct hits. The soldiers divide their attention eght giveing their attention to gears with the remaining forces on spike. Spike grabbed the crossbow and aimed it at the command center. He saw a window and shot the arrow above the window connecting the two buildings together. He pulled out a smoke grenade and pulled the pin. He then tossed it at the soldiers as it went off he grabbed his M4 and ziplined down the rope. He kicked out the window and shot the first two soldiers then had his gun grabbed by a changeling COR soldier. They struggled a bit before Spike headbutted the changeling. He then proceeded to beat the changeling senseless only stopping when the blood cotted his gun. He looked at his gun in disguised as he walked to the letter on the table in the center of the room. “Смелость - твоя следующая мишень, куколка, не подведи меня снова, иначе они будут последствиями.(Daring do is your next target chrysalis don't fail me again or they will be consequences)” garble wrote “Gears make your way towards the tracks and I got a letter you translate” Spike ordered over the comms “Got it, I’m just about to lose my tails” Gears said Spike took the note and anything else of interest and quickly made his way outside to the track. Spike waited for a bit for gears, the train was a few clicks away from his current location. Spike saw gears galloping at him. An enemy helicopter close behind. “The fuck” spike said in surpried The train was going behind him as gears tacked him onto it. Gears and spike looked back at the chopper who was following them. It was at that moment the train entered the tunnel gears and noticed a maintenance hache in the tunnel. Gears and spike jumped off the train and made their way to the hache “Just like we're home free.” Gears quipped
The hybrid and The defectorDL, Griffon city, Safehouse 0530 hours, October 11, 2010 Scootaloo was sitting on a table holding her leg. She was waiting for Gears to come with medkit for her leg. Scootaloo looked around the room and spotted Spike talking into a radio, and woodfire hitting a punching bag. Gears approached her medkit in hoof. She moved her hooves off her leg so he could stitch her up. “So spike tells me your half dragon” scootaloo said awkwardly trying to strike up conversation. “Yes I am, what do you think?” Gears answered rather nervously “It doesn't matter what I think, what do you think about yourself.” scootaloo asked him with a warm voice “I don’t know how to answer that” gears said, sewing her leg up. She winced. Gears looked at her face wondering what was wrong. Scootaloo noticed his eyes, they were rosie pink she also noticed they were more dragon eyes then a ponies. “You okay” he asked, concerned “You have nice eyes- I mean yeah I’m fine just fine.” scootaloo stammered trying to fix her statement. Gears blushed which has not been lost on scootaloo. Gears casted a spell on her stitched up wound. She noticed the amount of heat gears magic felt on her flesh. Spike got off the radio and walked up to the two ponies “Gears, scoots you two are going to the frozen north to meet my contacted she targeted by chrysalis. A chopper is thirty clicks away, that's your ride.” Spike ordered Without a word they headed out of the safe house and moved to the helicopter. Scootaloo looked at gears. He had a Remington 700 on his back with a PM63 in his holster. Once they got on scootaloo inspected her weapons. She had a spas 12 in her hooves she also had an AK-74u on her back. “Gears what do think about garble” Scootaloo asked “He’s a backstabbing asshole who needs to be put down.” gears spat the words like venom. As they both entered the helicopter. “What did he do” scootaloo asked “That's a long story.” Gears stated as the chopper took off “We got time.” scootaloo pointed out. “Fine, I'll start from the beginning.” Gears said with smoke coming from his nostril Apha Base 0800 hours, November 1,1970 Gears saw a helicopter landing on the helipad. It had twilight’s cutie mark on it. Gears beamed with excitement, his normal straight mane inflated into curls. He ran to the briefing room. Rainbow dash, gilda and Garble all looked at him. “Guys guess who's here.” Gears asked excitedly “What the fuck, why is your mane like that.” Gilda question rudely “Gears mane deflated slightly “uh it happens when I’m excited.” “конечно, шоу уродов было бы скорее пони, чем драконом, и подумать только, он мог бы однажды стать настоящим воином(of course, the freak show would be more pony than dragon and to think, he could be a real warrior one day)” garble said a mistves grin on his face. Gears mane deflated completely as he glared at garble. “Я настоящий воин, ящерица-переросток(I am a real warrior, you overgrown lizard)” gears spat at him Garble with a calm experton on his face was about to fire back but was stopped by the princess come into the room “Гирс не оскорбляет перебежчика, с которым он сейчас на стороне, и вам двоим нужно научиться работать в команде. (Gears don't insult the defector he's on are side now and you two need to learn how to work as a team)” twilight scolded the dragon. Gears immediately turned around and bowed his head “Princess forgive me I didn’t mean to-” gears was interrupted “If you didn’t mean it you wouldn’t have said it.” twilight scolded she sighed and put her hoof on his chin “rise gears. Intel says cilesta on the run so I’m sending in teams to track her down. “Sweet, we're finally going to finish this.” rainbow said “Sorry dashy but you guys aren't going in, the OSS has intel stating that there's a super weapon celista has been holding. I want your team to retrieve it for me.” twilight informed “Princess, what is this weapon called exactly” gears asked “They're called the elements of harmony. It's said to be the sires hollows. You’ll move out 1200 hours.” twilight said, sires hollows Gears, Garble 1230 hours, November 1,1970 The APC rolled up to the village and dropped off Rainbow and her team, along with team zeta. Rainbow called in ordnance and a plane dropped a white substance from it on the village. The powder ignited and the fire spread throughout the village. Gilda looked on in horror as the ponies in the village were burned alive. “Rainbow what the hell was that.” Gilda asked “A new weapon called white phosphorus didn't know it did that, though.” Rainbow said, her eyes widened. Garble pulled Gilda to the side “you see how they do things, a disregard of civilians slaughtering them just to get their enemy.” Gilda looked at garble for what felt like an hour. “Gears, Garble, you two check the compound at the far end of the village. Gilda with me.” rainbow dash ordered “Yes, ma'am” Gears and Gilda said in ursine Gears, Garble, and two members of zeta squad made their way to the compound. Once they arrived, Gears kicked open the door. Garble entered the room and head left, he shot two ponies near a chalkboard. The first zeta member went right and shot three griffins. The second zeta member went down the middle and shot two dragons. Gears entered the room and noticed the room they were in. This used to be a school I’m assuming.” Gears said, pointing to the bloody chalkboard. Gears heard a helicopter off in the distance. “Pepper with me, garble, you and kicker head up to the roof and blow it out of the skis if they take off.” “в теме” garble sulited. Siren hollow, hollows school courtyard Gears 1245 hours, November 1, 1970 Gears and pepper entered the courtyard outside. There was fire licking, the walls of the school. The trees were being burned as the ponies who were guarding the chopper. Gears looked closer at their uniforms and noticed something off about them. Instead of being yellow like celestas soldiers had. But these were a blackish red color and he remembered the fact the first room they entered had stallions in it. Before gears could think of what was happening. One of the guards noticed him and opened fire. Pepper pulled Gears into cover. “Thanks kid.” gears told the riflemen Gears pulled out a PPSh-41 and began to return fire; he hit the guards in the chest. Pepper shot two more with his Thompson. Gears shot three guards. The helicopter’s blades began to spin. Gears saw the five remaining guards, they were holding brand new weapons. Two dragons were holding RPDs, two griffons had Mac11s and the last guard, a pony, had an AK-47. Looks like they have new toys” Gears quipped. Pepper had a horrified look on her face. Look kid ran to the piller over at the far end of the courtyard. I will go to the statue at the other end and we pick off the one who focuses fire on the other, got it.” Gears ordered. Pepper nodded her head and ran to the pillar as Gears charged to the statue at the other end. Pepper galloped to the pillar. The two dragons fried at her, she was shot in the flank as she fell in at the side of the pillar. The griffons and pony forced him and barely managed to grease his leg. He looked at his leg and after commiting on how much he was a lucky bastard. He aimed at the dragons and fired. Only managed to kill one of them before the two griffons fired at Gears’ position. Pepper picked herself up and fired at the griffons once they were cleared gears shot the last dragon in the group. The helicopter began to take off. He radio to kicker Kicker shoot that bird down.” Gears ordered into the radio Siren hollow, hollows school rooftop Garble 1338 hours, November 1, 1970 Kicker come in.” Garble heard over the stallions radio. After a few more calls to kicker. Gears radioed to him Garble, кикер не отвечает. сбил вертолет(Garble, kicker isn't responding. shoot down the chopper)” gears ordered. Garble looked at the helicopter and did nothing to take it down. “Шестерни мне нечего сбивать(Gears I have nothing to shoot it down)” garble stated дерьмо(Shit)” gears said as the chopper took off. Garble threw the earpiece on the ground and crushed it under his foot. Kicker was crawling to a rifle on the ground. Garble stepped on the stallion’s leg. His leg had a bullet hole in it. He ground in pain as garble twisted his foot. You fuckin-” kicker couldn’t finshed as he had shot in the head. Garble pulled out a brick phone and called someone. “What took you so long” garble asked Sorry, captain but we were ordered to make it more convincing.” the pilot apologies Fine, but you were almost caught, do make any unnecessary risk.” Garble ordered. As he walked back into the building.
Into the cold PT1Frozen north, daring do’s resistance camp Scootaloo, Gears 1300hours, November 11, 2010 Gears and Scootaloo sat in the helicopter in silence. After the story gears went silent, something that made Scootaloo more interested in it but she decided not to press him “So gears, what does your cutie mark stand for?” Scootaloo asked, breaking the ice. Gears cutie mark was a stage with two ethereal lights shining down on it. “Well, its means two things: one is performing, you know, acting, singing that type of stuff and the second means- well I think it represents all form of magic, at least that what the princess has told me and I somewhat agree.” Gears said “Wait, you know the princess?” Scootaloo asked Gears chuckled a bit “yes I’m her personal student, although I don’t like to say it because of that reaction.” Gears said awkwardly, “Sorry for sounding surprised, but I don’t know anyone who knows the princess well, Spike of course, but he is the prince.” Scootaloo said “Looks like we're coming in for a landing,” Gears said as he looked at the snow covered ground. Scootaloo looked out seeing a group of six ponies, four of them were in a defensive position around the two ponies in the middle. The two reaming ponies was a mare and a stallion. The mare was a light gold color with a gray mane going from light to dark in its color. The stallion had a green mane with a black coat color. Scootaloo looks at gears, seeing a curious look on his face. Gears notice she was looking “Sorry Scootaloo it's just that it seems very well made for ponies without traditional training.” Gears stated “Maybe they already had training before” Scootaloo reasoned “I guess it might be nothing.” Gears said, The helicopter landed as Gears and Scootaloo got off the four ponies, aiming their guns ready for a fight. Gears and Scootaloo had their guns at their sides. The mare pulled down one of the militia’s soldier’s guns, which made all of them lower their guns. The mare walked up the stallion behind her. You two must be the couple Spike told me about.” the mare stated. Gears and Scootaloo blushed over the statement “We're not together” they both said, the six ponies just laughed. “Names daring-do but you already know that. Sorry, but we don't have much time, the changelings have taken over one of their camps. Now I need you two to liberate it.” She ordered the two “We're happy to help, ma'am,” Scootaloo said. Frozen north, south-west camp Gears, Scootaloo 1353 hours, November 11,2010 Scootaloo was sliding down an ice hill, coming down to the side of the camp. Gears was on the opposite end with a flare gun and a PM-63 with a suppressor with extended mags. Scootaloo hid behind a tent as two stallions walked past the tent. “Gears come in.” Scootaloo called over the radio “I copy Scootaloo” Gears said “The changelings are in disguises so be careful you never know what they could be.” Scootaloo said. “Got it and remember the commander is at the center of the camp. Take them out and I take down the defences after that I single for the attack.” Gears informed her Gears got to a makeshift sniper tower. He looked around and saw no one around him. He proceeded to climb the tower and saw a mare holding a sniper, looking around. Gears got up on to the Towers platform. Gears pulled out a knife, he brought the knife down on the mare’s neck, slit her throat. A stream of crimson blood came from it. Gears looked at his bloody hoof, confused. “Gears come in,” Daring do said over the radio “What is it?” gears spat “Are you two ready for the attack?” daring asked with a disrespectful toun “Not yet where we still need the commander and the defences, don't worry, I will single you when we're ready.” Gears told her “Fine, just make it quick,” she said impatiently “Scootaloo, daring-do wants us to hurry up,” Gears radio. “Got it.” Scootaloo said Scootaloo crawled up to the command tent. She saw a griffon with a nervous look on her face. Scootaloo looked at the piece of paper in the griffon’s claw. Scootaloo was about to pull out her knife, but then she saw some fence wire. She Grabbed it and wrapped it around the griffon's neck. The griffon backed up and tried to knock the person who latched to her back. Scootaloo tightening the wire as the griffon fell on her back. They struggled for a while as Scootaloo made the wire tighter and tighter. Scootaloo heard the griffon stop breathing. she pushed the griffon off her body. After she grabbed the paper off the ground. Scootaloo scrutinised the paper she noticed it was in equestrian, “the HVT is at the gulag at traplevania they must eliminate her as quick as possible before the equestrians find out what has happened.” “Spike, I found something that might help us.” scootaloo said over the comms “What is it scoots” spike responded “The COR has someone in a gulag in traplevania they might be able to help us.” scootaloo stated “Ok me and woodfire will look into it, thanks scoots, oh and gears is a bit nervous when he’s around cute mares so you make the first move.” Spike said slyly. Scootaloo blushed “ spike what the Tartarus” “What it's obvious you two like each other am I wrong,” Spike said “Whatever, I gotta get back to it.” Scootaloo said with a blush. Scootaloo pocketed the document and walked to the alarm. Scootaloo opened the box and pulled out two wires. The lights on the alarm flickered out. Scootaloo looked up and saw a purple light fly into the sky. It exploded into bright flames. The attack was underway. Scootaloo pulled out her AK-74u with a red dot attached to it. She got into cover as two ponies came around the corner. Scootaloo wasted no time and shot the farther one with her gun. The last one momentarily stunned by the attack was hit in the muzzle by Scootaloo. She then turned the gun back around on the stallion and shot four rounds in his chest. Three more enemies came around the corner and fired at Scootaloo quickly and got into cover. Scootaloo got out a stun grenade and threw it at three. Once it went off, Scootaloo was going to engage, but before she could a black stallion rain hell down on the three. The stallion landed in front of her. “Thanks for the help but I could have handled it.” Scootaloo stated, “It seems you need some help to forgive me.” the stallion said “Wait, you’re the stallion that was next to Daring.” Scootaloo pointed out. “Yes, I was, now we must clear out the camp.” the stallion stated. “Got it.” Scootaloo saluted Frozen north, south-west camp Daring-do, Gears 1410 hours, November 11,2010 Gears fired on three griffons, taking them out. He saw two mares getting into a vehicle, one in the driver's seat and the other on the turret. Gears ran at the two mares. The mare heading for the turret got on it and fired at him. The bullets flew all around him, some of the rounds grazing his body cut away a subtle disguise. Some of his fur gave way to scales. He grabbed the mare that had just gotten into the driver’s seat and pulled her in front of his body . The mare, not caring for her comrades' safety, shot the mare, trying to shoot through her. Gears pulled a grenade on the mare’s belt and tossed her at the vehicle. The mare took the opportunity to fire on gears, not paying attention to the grenade rolling towards the mare. The vehicle exploded, killing the mare. Gears looked around and saw daring-do, holding a black and green M16. She was shooting at three griffons. Gears ran up to her side and started firing. “Are you sure this is the right camp?” Gears yelled angrily over the gunfire Daring shot three ponies, taking cover behind a rock. “Are you questioning my skills to find the enemy?” “Yes” gears said bluntly shot the last two griffins in their area. “Clear,” one of daring mares stated “I’m confident and you should not question me.” daring told him “Really, look at my hooves: red blood last time I checked, changeling blood is blue, and it glows. Does this look like it's glowing?” Gears yelled at her. The two mares got ready to take him down. “Look, the changelings are allied with the COR but they don’t believe in their case. So the COR took it over, getting the changelings out of her and replacing them with their own.” daring reasoned “Before gears could say anything, Scootaloo and the stallion walked up to the two. “You, tell your partner here that he’s being unreasonable,” daring stated “She is saying that the changelings were moved and replaced by the COR. but that’s complete bullshit.” Gears explained “Gears, I found a COR document in the command tent.” Scootaloo said Gears inhaled and walked to the entrance of the camp. Scootaloo followed him as she passed, daring, who had a satisfied look on her face. Gears sat at the gate throwing snowballs at a truck. Scootaloo sat down next to gears. “Hey gears, you ok.” Scootaloo asked “Yeah, it's just I thought something was off but you finding that document just changed that.” Gears stated “Well, looks like we still have to deal with the changelings.” Scootaloo said “Eyup” gears agreed. Scootaloo looks at Gears noticing a row of scales going across one of his forelegs. “What's that?” Scootaloo pointed at the scales. Gears covered it with his hoof. She noticed the look on his face and saw an embarrassed blush all over it. “That's nothing, just forget about it” gears said nervously “Spike told me you don’t normally look like this.” Scootaloo stated “Yeah, I don’t, but you wouldn't like how I actually” Gears said looking down at his hooves “You wouldn’t know unless I see how your actually are” Scootaloo try to assure him “Sorry I’m just- just.” gears couldn’t find the words “It's okay, I understand. I shouldn't have asked.” Scootaloo backed away slightly Author's Note I got to fix my life so I my uploding will be incosistoned as I fix it
Holding The LineAuthor's Note its 3 in the morning and another chapter coming later in the week. Holding The Line DL, Griffon city, Safehouse Spike, woodfire 1406 hours, October 11, 2010 Spike got off the radio smirking to himself all the while. He looked over to woodfire who was giving him a questioning look. “What is it Woodfire?” Spike asked “Sir may I ask, why are you teasing Private Scootaloo to flirt with colonel gears.” woodfire question, his voice getting quieter all the while “My wife and I have been trying to set them up for the past year, now that they have I’m taking advantage and trust me they won't let their flirty get in the way of the mission.” Spike told him, “now we're looking for an HVI they have been moved to tramplvaina so we're heading their tomorrow” “Sir don’t we need to clear this” woodfire asked uncertainty in his voice “It's already been clear that why were getting prep to move on this, first thing in the morning.” Spike ordered, Woodfire saluted and trotted over to the weapon crates. He was looking around in the crates. He picked up an M4 and was going to pick out a secondary, but when he saw an underbarrel attachment that had a gas tube and a thinner one coming out of it with fire at the end. Woodfire had stars in his eyes. He squealed like a little filly as he attached it to the M4. Spike snapped around and saw woodfire kissing the attachment. Spike just chuckled as he got back on the radio Tramplvana, bravo base Spike, woodfire 0900hours, October 12, 2010 The helicopter flew over the snow-covered trees, heading to Bravo base. Woodfire had an M4 with the only attachment being the mini flamethrower. Spike had a mac-10 with an extended mag and a laser sight. The helipad came into view as the chopper landed. Spike and Woodfire got off as a squad of marines greeted them “Sir, we’re Alpha 1 we're assisting you in your search for your asset.” a yellow and white stallion said. “Well, kid Give us the rundown on what's going on in the past couple of month” Spike ordered. Well, four months ago we found COR soldiers bunkering down with the zebras. After that we started seeing ponies in the zebras ranks with no strips inked on them, I might add. Two months ago we then saw them riding around in heavy armor and now they've been on the offence and have been attacking are bases ever since.” the stallion informed them. Thank now alpha I need you to look for a gulag I know that a at least three in this area try to narrow it down for us,” spike told him Yes, sir,” the stallion said as he signed for his team to follow him. Spike and woodfire walked to a tent. Spike saw Two dragons wearing the equestrian military uniform. Once they noticed him they turned to him and saluted. “At ease and fan out. I need this tent” spike ordered Yes, sir” both dragons said in ursine, as they walked out woodfire entered the tent. Spike spared him a glance as he tuned the radio to his comm link. Woodfire looked around the tent and he saw a couple of maps and communications equipment around the room. He looked over at a crate that had the words “experimental” on the box. Out of curiosity, he opened it and saw a staff with an orange crystal on it. He reached out for it but stopped and looked over to spike. He sighed and turned to him. “Permission to speak freely sir.” Woodfire asked. Spike stopped turning the dial on the radio and looked at him. “Permission granted” spike allowed “Sir, what is this staff and what is it doing here.” woodfire question “I don’t know but gears said he did make Uber weapons, two decades back one being a fire staff so that might be it.” spike hypothesized, going back to his task. Woodfire eyes lit up as he reached for the staff, but before he could a mortar exported outside, followed by an alarm. Spike immediately picked up his mac-10 and ran out of the tent. Woodfire, after getting the ringing out of his ears, did the same. Spike looked around at the carnage. Mortar fire was peppering the base with holes, and every equestrian soldier quickly rushed to defend the base. Woodfire got out of the tent and looked around. He looked up and saw a mortar coming down on spike but before it could woodfire tackled him. “Spike, get out of the way,” he said while doing it. The explosion sent them flying a couple feet away, knocking the breath out of them. Spike was the first to recover and picked himself off the ground. Spike picked up his SMG and ran at woodfire. “Thanks for saving my ass. Now get off yours,” Spike quipped as he helped woodfire off the ground. Woodfire picked up his AK-47. Spike led woodfire to the trenches. Once spike got into the trenches and shot three zebras that jumped in. Woodfire shook his head and turned on his flamethrower attachment. A zebra jumped in front of woodfire. The zebra had a predatory look on his face but it immediately dropped when he saw woodfire’s smile then all the zebra could feel is pain, the zebra screamed in agony and threw his hoofs around trying to put out the fire. Woodfire just giggled as he saw the blacking of the zebra's body. Spike looked around and saw a woodfire staring at a burning corpse. Spike was unsettled to say the lest. The gunfire was flying all around them. Spike ran at woodfire and pulled him down. “WHAT THE FUCK WRONG WITH YOU.” Spike yelled at him. “Without dropping his smile he respond “sorry sir, I just love seeing things burn,” woodfire stated in a tone that sounded as if he was a little colt be caught with his hoof in the cookie jar. Spike rolled his eyes and pulled him to the armory wing of the trenches. Woodfire burned anything getting in their way. Once they arrived, Spike handed woodfire a few incendiary charges and said “ woodfire you love burning things well this thing can release a firewall that can burn anything that gets thrown at it.” Spike saw his eyes light up and grab the charges. “Woodfire wait of my signal” spike told him as woodfire ran to set them up Got it” woodfire said as he ran to more shallow trenches. Jeez, the rumors are true about him. Why is everyone I meet never normal?” Spike sighed and followed woodfire. Woodfire set one charge on a couple of sandbags. Two stallions were shooting a mounted M60 at the zeals of zebras rushing at the base. Spike ran up out of the trenches and up a hill then picked up a FIM-43 that was leaning on the back wall that covered the inner courtyard. He scanned the horizon using the scope attached to it after seeing a tank he turned on the rocket lock on and aimed at it after a few seconds and a beep from the scope spike fired and blew up the tank. “Blow it, Fire” spike order. The stallion we foal like excitement on his face walked away and set it off. A massive wall of whitish-blue fire constructed itself in front of woodfire. He turned to see two zebras charging at him. He looked at his flamethrower attachment and changed the empty gas container and replaced it with a full one. One zebra swung at him with a dagger, woodfire dogged the swing and buck the zebra in the head, sending him flying at the wall of the trench. The second tried to tackle woodfire and countered him, redirecting his momentum with his shoulders and throwing him over his back and on to the other zebra. Woodfire turned to them and lit them on fire, “that was for the lashing”. Woodfire ran to the trenches on the north side of the armory. He burned through five different squads of zebras who had broken through the line. He set up the charge in the dead center of the trenches. Woodfire reached for a Molotov and tossed it at four zebras. Spike aimed at another tank and blew it away. A mare walked up to Spike. Prince Spike, they coming in with heavy armor is coming from the north where the barracks are,” the mare informed him Fuck, blow it woodfire” spike order. After woodfire detonated, The fire wall connected with the Western fire wall. Woodfire was going to the eastern trenches but was stopped by Spike, “woodfire were heading to the barracks, leave the charges.” After woodfire sighed, he gave the explosive to the mare and followed Spike. Spike opened a hatch that lead down to a tunnel. Woodfire looked around and saw metal walls and a weapon wall. Woodfire dropped his M4 and picked up an OTs-14 with a red dot and reflex sight attached on it. Spike followed suit picking up an MP5 with a EVO sight with a 45 round extended mags. Sir, how deep does this go” Not too deep, there's one more layer under us. Come on here over here, Spike climbed up a ladder and opened the hatch. Woodfire saw a china lake with incendiary ammunition, he picked up the grenade launcher and climbed up. Woodfire looked around at the snow covered ground and heard an annoying honk. He looked at what caused the nose and saw Spike sitting in a jeep with a M40 Recoilless anti-tank rifle mounted on the back “Get in” spike ordered, woodfire eared the back as they drove to the trenches, spike pulled his mp5 and fired it at the zebras storming the entrances while woodfire used the incendiary grenades at the opening that were thinning troops. Spike unloaded another clip into the no mares land. Spike saw a tank head towards the base. “woodfire, tank coming from the left.” spike pointed out. Nice call out sir” woodfire stated as he got on the M40 recoilless rifle. He picked up a 50. cal explosive rounds and loaded into the gun. After putting all four rounds into the rifle, he aimed at the tank, but before he could fire, a bullet grazed his foreleg. Woodfire got down into the jeep. “Sir, permission to thin the herd,” woodfire asked jokingly “Granted” spike chucked out Spike drove around the battle area while Woodfire fired his grenade launcher, burning any zebra who got through the trenches. Spike ran over a couple of zebras. Woodfire got on the jeep's rifle and aimed at the tank once again. All four rounds fired out at once. The rounds pierced the tank. Two rounds entered the barrel, blowing up the top of the tank. The other two rounds entered the cockpit and killed the two drivers. Woodfire got out of the jeep as three orange smoke trails came from the no mares land. “Napalm, strike inbound, get your head down,” a mare said over the comm link “ wait that sounds like” woodfire couldn’t finish as three jets zoomed by dropping fire on the battlefield. He had a massive smile as he looked at the flames. Spike walked up to woodfire and taped him on the shoulder. “Woodfire I’m going to head back to the tent and radio gears and scootaloo. Anything weird happens report it to me.” spike informed him “Yes sir”
Gaining TrustFrozen north, daring do’s resistance camp Gears, Scootaloo 1300hours, October 12, 2010 Gears and Scootaloo entered their tent. Gears pulled a cigar from a box that was in his saddlebags. He looked over to Scootaloo and his heart raced. “Come on Gears you can do this, your can fuckin do this, just walked up to her and make a move,” Gears thought to himself as he walked up to her “Hey Scootaloo, I was thinking maybe we can get a bit to eat after all this is done.” gears smiled, his sharp teeth on full display. “Looks like spike was wrong,” Scootaloo committed under her breath “So what do you say?” Gears asked with his friendly smile. “Yes, I would love to.” Scootaloo responded, as Gray Cloud entered the tent. “You two need to-” he stopped as he notice the looking into each other's eyes then focus their attention on him “You two lovebirds need some time.” he jabbed at the two “No, what do you need” Gears question rather annoyed at the interruption “We found an old lab that the solar army held back during the war. we're going to look it over, see what we can find.” Gray Cloud informed “What does this have to do with the COR?” Scootaloo asked “Nothing, but if we find something, we’ll have one over them.” Gray answered, Scootaloo and gears shared a look, after gray left the room gears was the first to speak up “Well, looks like we're getting back into it. I’ll continue the story if you like,” Gears offered “Sure it would make the ride less boring,” Scootaloo said as the two left the tent Alpha base 1200hours, February 3, 1971 Gears was walking to the briefing tent, but stopped when he heard crying coming from the corner. He turned the corner and saw pepper; she was crying while holding a picture. He noticed her belly was a bit larger than normal. Gears approached her as he approached and she seemed to notice him. She studded at attention and saluted “Sir” pepper's voice was shaky, he could tell she was still on her mind. “I’m not here as a superior but as a friend,” gears said in a soft toun Sorry but I got to get off the base I just resigned,” pepper told him may I ask why.” gears question Its kicker me, him were a couple we hid it from everyone now that he’s gone and things are going well so I will just move back to Trothoof” pepper said Gears hesitated but said it anyway “your pregnant I can’t” gears bluntly said Yes I am he didn’t know I was going to tell him after the mission it looks like he can't be there for are foal” pepper tears fell unimpeded. Gears walked up to her and gave her a hug. She was taking a back as gears kissed her on the forehead and gave her a bag of bits. You need this more than I do” gears told her. She looked in the back and was surprised as count the bits. “This is thirty thousand bits, gears I can't take it” pepper stated, trying to give the bits back You need it more, you're having a foal.” Gears pushed the bag back to her I don’t know what to say-” Gears cut her off and said “say nothing and take care of the little one” I will thank you gears I’ll pay you back” pepper stated No, just take good care of the foal.” Gears told her, she nodded her head and walked to the exit of the base, Gears smiled and made his way to the briefing tent but before he could rainbow dash stopped him. “Come on Gears, Twilight is waiting for us” Rainbow said, grabbing his hoof and dragging him to the tent. As soon as they entered gears noticed Gilda and Garble whispered to each other. He then put his eyes forward and saw twilight giving rainbow a peck on the chick. Gears walked up to the table then taped on it getting everyone's attention Princess, forgive me for asking but what's the mission” gears asked We have a lead on the elements, there's a scientist that has been studying them. She should have them now. If not, then she will at least know where they are.” twilight said Where were heading twi” rainbow questioned There's an island off the coast it's called hippogriffia an island abandoned a long time ago after the storm king invaded it.” twilight informed Where are they now” Gears inquired Don’t know they just disappeared,” twilight told him Maybe if I get a chance, I can find them I mean everyone leaves a trail” gears offered Only if you have time gears now get going everyone.” twilight stated Hippigriffia Gilda, Garble, Gears, Rainbow Dash 1534 hours, February 3, 1971 Gilda was sitting in the ship's cockpit while Garble was staring at them on the island. She was fighting with her rifle when she heard a radio crackle, alive with garble, whispering into it. She got closer to listen in. “Good, now the equestrians are on their way now, do not let yourself be captured.” Garble whispered, Gilda pulled her pistol and aimed it at garble. He heard a click and turned to see what it was. Once he saw Gilda aiming a colt. 1911. She smiled at her and said “Gilda I know how it sounds but listen to me before you shoot.” Explain” Gilda snarled “The equestrians can’t be trusted with these weapons. When I heard how powerful they were, I have been informed my leaders and they sent some of their agents to take them. I have been ordered to keep them out of equestrian’s hoofs,” garble said What do you mean, we can’t trust them?!” Gilda stated Think about it princess twilight was raised by Celestia sure they may be in conflicted but they will have the same methods, who's to say that she won't take anyone down who she deems as a threat a massive amount of griffins took Celestia’s side what do you think the princess will do to your people after this.” Grable explained Gilda was pondering what she had just heard. She slowly lowered her pistol and put it back in her holster. Just as this happened, Gears entered the cockpit with a scowl on his face. “Someone took my sniper,” he said, annoyed We don’t have your sniper gears maybe rainbow hide it from you like a prank.” Gilda said, Fuckin dash ugh garble were 30 mins from shore slow this thing down before we cash into the dock.” gears ordered да шоу уродов( yes, freak show)” garble teased. Gears slammed the door behind him. Well, let's get ready . Hippigriffia Gears, Rainbow Dash, Gilda, Garble, 1605 hours, February 3, 1971 Gears loaded a clip into a Thompson submachine gun. Rainbow Dash held a Winchester 1897 trench shotgun while Gilda held a Browning automatic rifle. Finally Garble came to the three soldiers with a PPSH-41 with a drum mag. “What took you so long, Garble?” Gears yelled, annoyed at the waste of time. Принцесса приказала мне поставить эту антенну на вершине горы.(I was ordered by the princess to put this antenna at the top of the mountain)” Garble said calmly правда и почему нас не проинформировали об этом.(really and how come we haven't been informed about this)” Gears stated она по радио это мне( she radio it to me)” Garble lied Gilda did twilight radio this order” Gears glared at her Yes, she did,” Gilda stated. Gears, and Rainbow shared a look then Rainbow spoke “Ok me and Gears will get the scientist you two go and set an antenna.” Gilda and Garble hiked up the mountain as Gears and Rainbow walked to the research station. Hippigriffia Gilda, Garble 1623 hours, February 3, 1971 Garble pulled his blade out of the mare's neck and walked over the edge of the hill. Gilda looked at garble as he took out a small box that grew into a briefcase. What's in the box?” Gilda asked, He took out a mosin-nagant. He assembled it and loaded the rifle. “Its Gears’ sniper was going to take out the Scientist before they could reach her.” Garble informed her “Why do we have to kill her, can't we just-” Gilda asked Just what, take out your friends if you wish to keep them alive, then we must do this.” garble interrupted, he aimed at the scientist was pacing back and forth as gunfire was coming from the outside of her lab. Garble fired the sniper as the lab doors bursted open. Garble placed the rifle back in the box as Gears and rainbow entered the room “Shit the egghead dead, Gears look around to see if we can find anything on the elements.” Rainbow ordered. “Damn it we were so close,” Gears responded as he looked around the lab. Abandoned solar laboratory Gears, Scootaloo, Daring-do, Gary Cloud 1400 hours, October 12, 2010 Gears, Scootaloo and Gary were sitting in a snow transport, it came to a stop at a damaged building. Daring got out of the driver's seat and opened the back, letting the cold air into the back compartment. “Here already, well thanks for the story Gears.” Gary Cloud winking at him, Gears didn’t notice as he helped Scootaloo off the transport. “Ok everyone form up we got a job to do.”
Into The Cold PT2Author's Note I'm back sorry I haven't posted in a while I'm just trying to deal with school so I don't have much time to write. also I'm working on the 2rd chapter of aftermath, hopefully I can get it out soon. Into The Cold PT2 Abandoned solar laboratory Gears, Scootaloo, Daring-do, Gary Cloud 1403 hours, October 12, 2010 Gears lead the team to the entrance of the lab, seeing that the lab was locked behind a steel door. Gears walked up to the door, took a deep breath and let out purple flames hit the door. The three ponies were dumbstruck at seeing the flames leave gears muzzle. Then, after a few moments, gears stopped and looked at the glowing red door. “Come on, guy, let's get in-” gears walked right into the door, hitting his nose on the door. Daring burst out laughing, Scootaloo joined her. Gears glared at the door for a few minutes before tuning to the group. “Ok the door is locked, and it seems to have resistance to dragon fire so we’ll split up and look for another way in. scootaloo your with daring. I will be with Gary Cloud, take the right, we got the left.” Gears oreded “Hey, you're not the one in charge here. I was the one that founded this place and the one to have a transport to get us here." Daring protested “You have a better idea, I'm all ears." Gears glared “I have no problem with your plan but Gray is with me." “Fine come on Scootaloo were heading left" as they left gray glared at daring. Abandoned solar laboratory Daring do, gray cloud 1434hours, October 12, 2010 Daring walked around the corner with gray close behind her. The two came across a hatch covered in snow. Gray approached the door and tried to open it only to find it was locked. “Well it appears we're aren't entering from this way” “Damn it. We need to find are way into this place before the others do” daring-do said “Mother may I asked why are we trying to do this wouldn’t jus-” “Stop is this not up for discussion and about the coronal gears” “What about him?” “I know you like him but let me tell you he’s not interested in stallions.” “What!? look let not discuss this here let's work on a way to get in.” Daring looked around and spotted a tube that seemed to be connected to the lab. She grabbed Gray's hoof and pulled him to the tube. When he saw the tube he worked on getting the grate off. Abandon soler laboratory Scootaloo, Gears 1439 hours, October 12, 2010 Scootaloo climbed up to the roof, Gears close behind Scootaloo saw a vent on top of a roof entrance, scootaloo walked to the door and tried to open it. It didn't budge. Gears walked up and used his horn to do a simple scan spell what he found rather surprised him. “Well were not getting in that way” “What, can’t you melt it or something” “Not unless you want whatever is in there to be incinerated with it. They put enchantments that will destroy anything in it.” Shit” Scootaloo looked up at the vent, “what about that vent?” Scootaloo pointed out “Scootaloo that's not a vent that's a chemical explosion system it separates chemical into liquids and gases and throws it out” Gears explained “Learn something new everyday but can we use it to get in” “Yes you can I’m to large for it though.” “Ok we’ll keep looking then” “No you head in I’ll look for another way in” “You sure” “yeah come on I’ll give you a boost.” Gears stepped under the vent and lowered himself a bit so Scootaloo could climb on. Once she did gears got up to full height and Scootaloo jumped, she failed to grab the legag she fell right on gears. He was about to push her off of him, but he saw where she was. Scootaloo landed on gears. She noticed that his fur felt thin and synthetic, like a fake fur coat. She looked up at gears and noticed the blush on his face. That's when she realised she was staying on him way longer than she should have. Quickly picking herself up off of him with a blush of her own on her face. “Uhmm I uhm” “Let's get back to work,” Gears awkwardly said “Right” Scootaloo shared the same toun Scootaloo got and gears back and jumped up to grab the edge, successfully this time, and climbed up she pulled the grate off and hopped in. gears heard a yell and a thud. Gears chuckled to himself and smiled “bet that would have been cute to see.” Abandon soler laboratory Scootaloo, gray cloud 1500hours, October 12, 2010 Scootaloo fell down the shaft and landed on the ground on her stomach just then a stallion walked out of the shadows. Gray Cloud looked at Scootaloo with a grin on his face. She looked up at him, then the only light source in the room. Gray offered a hoof to Scootaloo and she took it in kind. Once Scootaloo was on her hooves she looked up to the only light source coming from a large grate. "So mind giving me a lift" Scootaloo asked "Sure, why not?" Gray whispered under his breath, as Scootaloo climbed on his back and pushed the drain and entered the lab. Scootaloo looked around the room and saw biohazard canters In the center of the room. scootaloo helped Gary up into the lab. He walked over to a filing cabinet and opened it. He looked through the files while. Scootaloo walked up to the canisters. She saw letters painted on it, she cleared the dust and saw “Zerfall 7” on the canister she noticed that it seemed to be connected to a small chamber. “Hay gray see if you can fine a file labbed “zerfall” “As you wish but do you mind informing me on why?” “This canister is labbed “zerfall” its germane for decay” “I understand it. I took a couple of classes when I was a colt.” Gray was looking through the files. While scootaloo was examining the canisters. She saw two streaks on the ground leading to the chamber. She walked up to it and tried to open the door but found it locked. She walked over to gray and helped him look. After a few minutes later, Gray found a file labbed “project zerfall” he began to read from it. “Doctor chemical burns lab entry 177108 we have finished the bio weapon and it will be ready to deploy against the dusk soldiers Any Day now. I honestly don’t think we should have made this formula but what's done is done and we have nothing left.” “Well what else does it say Gray?” scootaloo asked the gray pegasus “It's written in dragon I can't translate it” “Ok, let's find a way to get it to the gas chamber to see what's in it.” “It seems like it's a power door so we need to get the power on.” “Ok I’ll contact gears so he can see if there are any busted power generators.” Abandon soler laboratory Gears, and daring do 1530hours, October 12, 2010 Daring looked around, scanning the hills for any sign of the COR. Gears were checking the roof, anyway. gears noticed daring was on the ground underneath him. He hopped down on the ground beneath her. Daring instinctively aimed the gun at gears but before she could fire gears. He ripped the rifle out of her hooves and pinned her to the wall. “Got cha” Daring stared at him for a bit. Once she looked at her passion she got a devilish smile on her face “well looks like you can do anything you want to me.” “Yeah I can,” gears said mock flirting “Well then be gentle handsome” and with that little comment gears face red and let her go. “Ok that enough” gears walked to get her gun and handed it to her. She chuckled and grabbed her rifle. Just then gears got radio “Gears this is Scootaloo. we need the power on your mind checking the generator.” “Welco scoots we’ll check them gears out” gears turned to daring and moshed her to follow him. She followed him to a far off power station that was connected to the lab. “How the hell did you know this was here?” “Every solar lab was designed to have an exterior power source. My guess is Celestia didn’t trust her own ponies.” “Ok well let's make this quick. I have a bad feeling about this.” Gears and daring got into the power facility. Gears looked around for any damage to the wiring to make sure anything isn’t out of place. Daring saw a switch that was connected to a primary generator and she flipped the switch. Power flowed all through the machines and threw the wires heading to the laboratory. Abandon soler laboratory Scootaloo, and Gray 1600hours,October 12, 2010 Scootaloo and Gray were walking throughout the lab finding anything else that can help them. The power turned on and scootaloo and gray ran to the main lab. Gary noticed a room that said security room on the top of it. Gray ran in and saw two VHS tapes two had been dated with 1979. He put them in his saddle bag and galloped to Scootaloo. Once he entered he saw her open the gas chamber. He noticed a wire that went tight and fell before he could check Scootaloo pushed him into the ventilation system. “What was that scootaloo?” Gray yelled at her. An explosion went off fire consuming the entered lab. “Do I still have to answer that” scootaloo said with a smirk. “SCOOTALOO, GRAY YOU STILL WITH US.” gears yelled over the comms “Yeah gears were good, what's the situation?” “We got CERAForces on the way. fuckers probably heard the explosion. Get out of their now!” “Welco gears we’re making our exit.” Scootaloo cut the comms and stared walking down the vents.
The GulagAuthor's Note I had to write this on my phone so sorry if theirs more errors then the last chapter The Gulag Tramplvana, bravo base Spike and Woodfire 1500hours, October 24, 2010 Woodfire walked into the command center and walked up to Spike who was filling with a radio. It had been a week since Spike has been trying to contact Gears and Scootaloo. Woodfire tapped on the dragon's shoulder, causing Spike to turn to him. "What is Woodfire?" "Alpha back, they found the labor camp in the frozen forest, it’s a few miles out from here." "Good we can find the HVI and get them out." "How we don't even know who it is we're saving, sir" "I have my suspicions but I have to be sure." "So we're just taking a risk and it might not even pay off, good to know." Woodfire said with a chuckle "Yeah well let's get going we're burning too much daylight" Spike and Woodfire head to the armory and grab their weaponry. Spike pick up a RPK with a reflex sight and extended mag and a spaz 12 with a marathon Stock and a red dot. Woodfire grabbed a M16 with an ACOG scope and extended barrel. He also grabbed the fire staff. "Really fire your taking the staff." "Yes, this staff was made for me."he nuzzled the staff as if it was an old friend. Spike rolled his eyes and began walking to the helipads. Spike saw Alpha standing next to a helicopter. Spike approach the squad leader once they noticed him they all saluted "Sir" Alpha squad said in unison "So your ready for the big leagues Alpha" '"Sir yes sir." Alpha shouted. Spike smirk and turn to the leader. "Sargent we're going to look for an HVI and getting them out. Now any questions" The Sargeant raised his hoof and Spike's eyes were on him. "What is it Sargent?” "Sir what does the HVI look like sir.” "All though its not confirmed were think its a female pegasus here's a photo.” Spike handed a picture over as woodfire came up to the group. “Did you get all that?” "Yes, sir.” "Good, now let's get in, we got a job to do.” Spike said as he got into the helicopter with alpha and woodfire close behind. Once they all entered, the pilot took off heading to the frozen forest. Woodfire was sitting next to the sergeant, who was looking down with a sad expression on his face. Woodfire tapped him on the haunches and got his attention. "You okay Sargent” "Yeah, I’m okay, corporal” "Are you sure because no one has ever made a long face like that unless something is wrong?” "Fine, if you really want to know I missed my niece's wedding. She really wanted me to go, but I got redeployed before it happened.” “Well that's just bad, but look on the bright side you have a new family member to see when you get back.” "Thanks but I really wanted to be there with them.” “Hey, that kinda reminds me of a joke.” “ A pyro and an ice queen trot into a bar, one asked "Hey ice, have you heard of the bride who married a crystal pony?” "No I haven’t” "Well she's been given the crystal shoulder evanescence.” The sergeant started laughing, Woodfire joined him. As the two laughed, Spike rolled his eyes and looked forward. He saw a large strucksher coming up in the middle of an iced cover forest. Once the other members of alpha noticed it as well they all locked and loaded were weapons Tamplavana, frozen forest Spike, Woodfire 1745 hours, october 24, 2010 The helicopter landed in a clearing. Spike got out of the chopper with alpha close behind him. Spike pulled out a radio and called in an assault team to hammer down on the prison camp. Woodfire saw a horde of helicopters heading to the gulag with a quesice look. Before he could question it the sargent asked “Sir why aren't we participating in air assault?” "We have reason to believe that are HVI is on the first floor of the prison.” "That's good to know” woodfire whispered under his breath. "Everyone was going to be in teams of three. Woodfire the sergeant and the lutente are with you, the two privents are with me.” Spike ordered Spike and his team entered the prison through the northside. While woodfire and his team entered through the eastside. Woodfire entered the hall to see nothing but locked cells. Woodfire checked every cell to see if he could find anyone who could remotely fit the description of the HVI but came up with nothing. “Spike the HVI isn’t in the easten corridors were going to check the western ones now.” "That's a negative, we’re pinned dow,n we need backup” "Wilco we’re on our way.” Woodfire radio “let move” Spike took cover behind an open cell door, he peared out with his RPK and fired at prison guards. He hit two dragon guards leaving ten guards left. One of the alpha soldiers was shot in the legs. The stallion fell to the ground and bled over the floor. Spike fired at the guards and ran to the stallion. Spike grabbed the stallion as he backed up to cover. The injured pony picked up his M4 and fired at the guards. He hit two of the guards before Spike got him into cover. “Stay put and put pressure on your wounds.” Spike shot at one of the guards and hit them in the neck. The other alpha member, a mare, shot a dragon in the head with a pistol. She throws a grenade, killing two pony guards and blowing a hole in the wall. She ran into cover right when Woodfire and the sergeant came in. Woodfire hit a guard in the face with the staff while the sergeant shot two ponies with a 1911. Woodfire burned the last two with the staff. Spike got out of cover and walked up to woodfire. "Hey Wood, what took you so long” "Were came across some stranglers in the hall back there” "Well, thanks for the save anyway. "Yeah well, we're heading to-” hearing screaming from the hole in the wall. Woodfire, spike and what's left of alapa aimed their rifles at the hole. Spike looked at the mare in his unit. “What's your name, private?” "Surgery plant, sir,” the mare said "You got medical experience” "Yes sir” Pach up your squamate and get him ready to move. Woodfire, you and the Sargent go around there and find the door to the room." "Got it. Come on Sarg, can I call you Sarg?.” Woodfire asked as they ran to the other side, Spike looked over to surgery plant. She was trying to wrap her partner's leg in some clean cloth. He walked through the hole in the wall and saw showers. "Get the fuck off me, you basted's” a femininity voice yelled as a gun went off. Spike ran to the nose. He pulled out his spaz 12 and came across the HVI, shooting two guards with a Makarov pistol. Spike was about to approach her but he noticed a guard sneaking up on her. Took aim and fired a shell at the dragon. Daring looked at the corpse then at the purple dragon holding a smoking shotgun. "Well look who it is, the prince coming to save me.” the mare snarked "Good to see you too.” Spike greeted. “alpha 1, packet is secured, move to extraction now!” "So how we're getting out of here spike” "They blew the cafeteria roof on the second floor off when we hit the place.” Spike and the HVI left the showers, opened the door to see woodfire and the sergeant taking down some guards, the sergeant shot two with a revolver and stabbed a third in the chest with a combat knife. Woodfire hit one pony in the chest and used him as a meat shield and shot a dragon in the chest. A group of guards ran towards them. Woodfire pulled a grenade and attached it to the guard, he threw the pony toads the rest of the guards and went off causing the hall to be closed off with rubble. "Spike, this is command you need to evacuate now we got orders to demolish that prison” "Welco, Command we’re heading to the evac point now.” Spike, the HVI, woodfire and the Sargent got to the second floor cafeteria. Woodfire saw corpses lettered across the floor, a mix of prisoners, guards and soldiers alike. Woodfire radioed the pilot giving him the quadrants. "You never see this type of thing in the wonderbolts” "Typical air force causes the damage yet never sees the damage,” the HVI said coldly. The helicopter hovered overhead. Rope fell from the chopper and went tight in front of them. Woodfire connected zipline handle and went up followed up by the HVI. Spike turned to the Sargent. "Come on Sargent this place is going down any moment." "We got to wait for my men" Spike radio to the alpha 1 only hearing gunfire. "Sarge I'm sorry but we aren't going to get out of here in time" "Sargent go on your comms "It fell out of my ear when we're fighting the guards." Well if you did you would know they got out" Spike lied "come on we'll see them at the base" The Sargeant walked to the ropes and zipped up Spike close behind. Once Spike got into the helicopter he saw woodfire confirming the sergeant while he held dog tags in his hoof. He turned to the HVI and sat beside her. "Daring, we have some questions."
Into The Cold 3Author's Note update time. Into The Cold 3 Abandon soler laboratory Scootaloo,and Gray 1600hours,October 12, 2010 Scootaloo and Gray ran through the maintenance shaft. Near the end Scootaloo found a ladder. Turning to Gray and with a quick nod, Gray let Scootaloo get on his back and hop on to the ladder. Once she got on, she climbed a bit then pulled a lever releasing the ladder from its bindings. Gray climbed up behind Scootaloo, once the two got to a maintenance hatch. They heard muffled gunfire. Scootaloo twisted the handle and threw it open. Scootaloo immediately lowered her head as bullets flew past her. “Gears we pinned down, can you do something about it?” “I'll do what I can.” Gears said Scootaloo pulled out her pistol and fired at the two crystal ponies who were moving away from the armored CERA vehicles. A round hit one pony in the leg, the other in the head. They immediately returned gunfire, as a bullet hit in her hoof. She dropped her gun but before it could fall all the way down the shaft. Gary grabbed it. “Gears were still waiting for that support!” “Don’t worry, I’m in position” as he said that a round hit a gas canister near the vehicles. The canister exploded and smothered the soldiers with an orange gas. Scootaloo quickly got out of the hatch and pulled out her SMG. wincing as he gripped it with her wounded hoof. Scootaloo ran into cover, followed by Daring and Gray. “Scootaloo what did you find” “Bio-weapon, it's called zerfall 7. We need to report this to Spike immediately!” “Got it” daring got on the earpiece, “Gears get down here were making are leave” “Got it this building is going to collapse any minute anyways” Scootaloo fired her weapon at the armored vehicles, as the rounds entered the still covering gas cloud, her rounds lighted into flames, hitting an unlucky pony in the throat. Gears hopped off the roof and cast a shield spell, cussing his fall and causing him to slide down an inclined he kept sliding till he got to a steel tanker. He took cover and aimed at the CERA vehicles but saw nothing but an orange gas covering the vehicles. “Great thing just got complicated” Gears looked at the canister he was next to and saw “zerfall 7” written on the canister. Gunfire hit the canister. Orange gas began to bust through the tanker. Gears held his breath and ran to his squad on the way he ran throget the gas burning away his spell revealing his scale. Once he got to the group, everyone looked at him. “Well you look cuter than I expected” Scootaloo complemented breaking the silences, Gears got a faint blush on his face as he checked his sniper. Gray glared at her, daring picked up on him, looked and punched him in the shoulder. Scootaloo fired at the vehicles hitting three crystal soldiers. Once Gears finished checking his weapon, the gas had dispersed and he looked at the remaining ponies. He saw five ponies, two with SMGs, one with LMG, and the last one had a shotgun. “Now is not the time to furt you two” daring shot a glare at the pegasus and dragon pony “Right well, Scootaloo keep one alive, we need answers” “Got it” Gears aimed his sniper and fired at the LMG welding soldier. Once he dropped, Scootaloo ran out of cover firing at the shotgunner, she rolled out of the way of the gunfire. She bucked a mare into the vehicle followed by two rounds being fired into the stallion back legs. She turned around and was knocked to the ground by the mare aiming her weapon at her. Before the mare could fire, a round went through her head. Gears ran to Scootaloo and helped her up. “You good scoots?” “Yes, thanks for the help.” scootaloo patted him on the back getting a good look at him Daring and Gray walked up to the two and stared at Scootaloo, daring gave her a pat on the back while Gray just rolled his eyes and said “show off” “Don’t hate me because I have the skills” Scootaloo smirk Gray rolled his eyes and walked off, Gears walked over to the stallion clutching at his legs trying to stop the bleeding. He walked up, grabbed an iron bar and blew flames at the objects. Once it finished he moved the stallion’s hooves and pressed it in the wound. He yelled in pain as Gears just focused on the next leg. After cauterizing his wounds, Gears helped get the stallion into a sitting position. “Hay, your going to be okay, all you have to do is answers some question” Gears said in a calm and soothing toun “I will never talk.” Gears walked up to Scootaloo and spoke with her “Scoots, how do you want to play this?” “I’ll scary him, you convinced him to talk” “Aah the Negotiator,” Gears joked Gears and Scootaloo looked over to the prisoner, a green glow just faded from the stallion’s head. His eyes had a green tint to them. Daring was standing over him with a grin on her face. The two shared a look before walking over, Gears looked over the stallion and saw a hypnotized look in his eyes, he snapped his claws in the stallion's face and got no response. “What did you do!” “Just a poison that makes others tell the truth, that's it” “Will it kill him” “No, trust me.” Daring said. Gears light up his horn and scanned the stallion “Scootaloo you asked the questions” Scootaloo walked up to the injured stallion. She felt the heat from the magic aura, she got closer to the stallion and looked at daring, who was looking more impatient by the minute. Then she saw Gears who was contrasting on his spell. “Can you hear me?” “Yes” the stallion answered in an almost dreamlike state “So what are you doing here” “We’re here to destroy this laboratory” “Bit of a large group for a demo op” “Were also supposed to reinforce alpha in destroying the Rebel camp.” “WHAT!?” Gray and Daring yelled in unison Gears dropped his spell, the cold rushing to the stallion's face. He didn’t react even when Daring aimed her revolver to his head and pulled the trigger. Blood splashed on Scootaloo's feachers. Daring let out a gutter scream that sounded unnatural coming from a pony, Scootaloo shook with fear as Gears went to her side. “Daring what was-” “WHERE MOVING NOW! GLOOM GET THE VEHICLES RUNNING.” Gray saluted and ran to APCs, Daring to turn to Gears and Scootaloo. “Get in now or we're leaving you behind.” Gears helped Scootaloo into the APC, then took his own next to her. Daring hopped in the front seat and Gray hit the pedal to move as fast as possible. Scootaloo calmed down and looked at Gears who were staring at daring in the front. Scootaloo scooted closer to him and tried to wrap her leg around him. A blush appeared on his face as he looked over to her. “You alright, Scootaloo” he asked in concern “Yes Gears I just never really heard anything like that before” Scootaloo said in whisper “I have but I can’t remember the species” he said in a low toun “Well that's great.” she whispered Gears wrapped his hooves around her to keep her warm. Scootaloo put her head on his neck but before she could get comfortable, the APC stopped abruptly. The two hit the back of the front seats. Scootaloo was the first to recover, getting out of the APC followed by Gears. The two saw the camp burning flames all over the tents, some were in better condition than others but all that palled in comparison to the body littered all around. Before the two could say something Daring ran to a body and held it in her hooves. Scootaloo walked up to her and put her pistol to daring head. “Why are they changeling in the camp?” “Scootaloo, put your weapon down, we can talk about this.” Gears chimed in Daring dropped her discussed, revealing the image of queen chrysalis “ Colonel Gears, your reputation precedes you” “I aim to please. Now queen chrysalis I presume” “Yes, now what do wish to discuss” she gritted her teeth Gears took a step forward but had a gun pointed on his face. Before he could say anything the queen motioned to the owner to lower his weapon. Gears moved and gave Scootaloo a look making her lower her weapon. Queen chrysalis stud up and walked towards him looking for any sigh of treachery. “So colonel speak” she commanded “We can help you. I know how it's like to be betrayed the those you think are your own” “I just lost an enter colony. Be careful on what you compare this to” she growled “The attack on bad wolf city in mexicolt” "What?” “We were searching for the elements. Garble, Rainbow, Gilda and myself were heading to a shipping container.”
The fall of a GriffonMexicolt, Bad wolf city Gears, Rainbow Dash, Garble, Gilda 1700hours, October4, 1971 A gunship was opening fire at the city’s bay. Gears and Rainbow were on a transport boat heading to the very same bay while Garble and Gilda were on another. Helicopters flew overhead as explosions ran throughout the city. Garble and Gilda were approaching their objectives on a bridge. The two rolled off the transport and swam under the bridge. “Gilda, the AA weapon is right above us. Used the hook launcher that ублюдок Gears made for us.” “Got it” Gilda shot the hook into the red bridge. She was lifted off the ground and went almost neck breaking speed towards the bridge. Once she got close enough, she slowed down and grabbed on to the edge. She climbed up and looked at the AA turret. She saw three mares and one Griffon. Gilda pulled out her Galil with an extended mag and an ACOG scope and fired at the mare on the turret. The three remaining Solers turned their attention towards Gilda. The mares fired on Gilda, not knowing that their Griffon ally was engaged in a fistfight with Garble. Gilda charged a unicorn mare and sliced her throat with her talion. She immediately grabbed the corpse and used it as a meat shield. Two rounds entered the lifeless body as Gilda tossed it to the earth pony soldier. The mare grabbed it and tossed it to the side but before she could do anything, Gilda stabbed her in the temple. “Garble you-” Gilda was stunted at the sight in front of her. Garble was bashing the griffon's face into the steel pillar. She heard a nasty crunch as Garble kept going. “Garble, I think you got her!” Gilda yelled at him. Garble hit the griffin's head on the pillar one last time before letting go of what's left of the griffin’s head. “Okay, you should set the charges and radio in.” Gilda set C-4 and walked to Garble, who was covered in blood. She Got on her comm link. “Gears, we cleared the bridge. It's time to make your move” “Wilco, we're heading to Entry point now.” Mexicolt, Bad wolf city Gears, Rainbow Dash 1715hours, October 4, 1971 Gears and Rainbow got out of the water and walked up the beach looking for the docks. Once they spotted it Rainbow climbed up onto the docks while Gears got on the other side. She climbed up and saw one mare standing parallel to her. Once Gears climbed up, Rainbow whistle, getting the mare’s attention. Once the mare turned to her, Gears stabbed the mare in the back of the head. Another mare walked out of the tent and noticed Rainbow. She tossed a knife at the mare as the mare fired a flare spell into the air. “Flare!” Gears yelled “You know what they say. If you’re going to fuck up get out of the way early” Gears took cover behind a metal pillar connected to a ferris wheel. While Rainbow got behind a concert barrier. Gears pulled out his MP-63, he removed his suppressor and added a reflex sight. He opened fire on the solar soldiers. He hit three that were charging their way. Two were hit in the neck and head respectfully. While the third was hit in the leg. She fell over and into cover. Rainbow peard her head out and spotted five solers. She toasted a semtex at the five, three got out of the way, one being picked off by Gears who began firing at the group. The semtex exploded and the remaining two mares tried to run at them. They were quickly cut them down. “Clear!” Rainbow and Gears moved out of cover and began walking to their objective but before they could gears heard a grunt of pain coming from a barrier. Rainbow turned to Gears. Who was trotting to the source of the noise? Gears looked at the mare clenteing her leg. He immediately knew who she was. The mare was Commander Coze Glow. Gears put healing spells on her leg and pulled out gauze and medic bandages to wrap her leg. “You stay right there” Gears snarled “Gears, what the hell is holding you?” Rainbow turned the corner to see Coze Glow. She immediately aimed her rifle at the mare. Gears got in between the two mares. “Rainbow, we could get information from her” “Ha, like I would ever tell you dusk ponies anything,” “Gears, we have a package to receive” “Yeah, but imagine the information we can get from her. There's a prison exchange site not too far from the objective, anyway” “Fine, I’ll radio for a prison exchange. Garble and Gilda will continue on mission” Mexicolt, Bad wolf city Garble, Gilda 1757hours, October 4, 1971 Gilda pulled her knife from the earth pony soldier. While Garble shot a unicorn in the head with a Makarov pistol. Gilda walked to Garble with interest in her eyes. Garble turned to her and gave her a sad smile. “what wrong Gilda” “What did you say about Dash and Gears earlier?” “I asked if you could seriously call them your friends” “Why would ask that” “Well, I was looking around, and overheard Commander Dash and Major Gears were discussing tactics on how to take Griffonstone.” “What no way they would do that dash wouldn’t-” “She wouldn’t keep it from you? Trusted me, Gears and Dash have a lot of secrets” Garble handed over a couple of photo of Gears and Rainbow dash in compromising positions some were Dash steal and other were Gears hurting other soldiers “What but she wouldn’t” “Maybe she would but could you take that chance?" “No, no she wouldn't “How can you be sure" “I know her garb she wouldn't unless?!” She protested She wasn’t your friend to begin with you said you meet her while griffon were still fighting on the celestial front maybe she just wanted information about your people” he paused for a moment “just a thought” “No no she couldn't Garb She never seem to spend time with you as of late don’t friends do that from time to time. “She’s been busy with Gears and the elements."she then got a look of determination on her face. “We can’t let them get the elements Garb.” “We will but first we have to activate a Motivator." “What's the Motivator?” “I will explain when we get there” Garble and Gilda fought their way through the crumbling building. Although Gilda didn't know it, Garble was smiling as he cut through the soler mares. The duo got to the center of the city. Garble walked into a nearby warehouse followed by Gilda who was staring at the large device in the center of the building. Above was a hole that seemed to have been under repairs before the attack. “What is this thing Garb" It is the Motivator, it's an experiment done by the solars in the early days of the war." “What does it's do" “Well it's supposed to destroy organic matter in 100 miles, not too far reaching but it works." “You mean we have an experimental super weapon and it can wipe out the entire of the city and we're going to use it. I'm sorry, but what the fuck!" “Your right its crazy, that's why we can hook up a timer and get out without having to burn with the Motivator" “Okay then let's hurry up if you're going to blow it I don’t want to be here longer than we have to.” Mexicolt, Bad wolf city Gears, Rainbow Dash 1820hours, October 4, 1971 Gears and Rainbow were reaching the exchange site; Cozy Glow was on Gears’ back, struggling with her bindings. They turned the corner and saw dusk soldiers running around doing multiple tasks. A stallion the two recognised trotted up to them. The stallion had cream fur with a brown straight mane. Hello commander, major,... Bitch.” the stallion addressed the three ponies Good to see you again Wiz Kid” Gears said with a smile “The helicopter is here to pick up the Garbage we also have a truck waiting for you two.” Gears walked to the helicopter with Coze Glow on his back wiggling all the while, Once the two were out of earshot Rainbow pulled Whizkid to the side “so have you asked him out yet?” “No, I don't even know if he likes stallions, not many stallions swing that way.” “Well shit, I had bits down on this for fuck's sakes” “What?!” “Nothing, I’m just going to check in on Gilda” rainbow got on her comms but got nothing but static A stallion began to approach the two. They looked over to him and began to stare at the newcomer. He was a stallion pegasus with blue fur and a dark blue mane. Wizkid blushed and walked behind Rainbow. He walked closer to the two, then spoke. “What are you two talking about?” “Nothing curls come on Gears is properly waiting for us” The helicopter took off with the solar commander on board, as the three ponies group up with Gears then head to the transport. Gears drove the truck while Rainbow was on the gun that was mounted on the tailgate. Curly wind was sitting in the passenger seat next to him. "Happy birthbay Major " “Thanks, So Curly hows the 432th been doing” “The battalion seems to be doing well but you should know that you helped us out of that one nice song by the way” “Thanks, I almost forgot about that” “How that was about a week ago.” “For you maybe~” Gears smirked After a couple of hours had gone by and the group Got to the shipping yard it was as far from the city. Everyone got out of the truck. Gears walked up to the open gate with a scowl on his face. Rainbow followed his gaze and saw a lock on the ground. Gears turned to the other two stallions “Curly, Wiz you two keep guard Rainbow we have to be caution we don’t know what could be here” Mexicolt, Bad wolf city Gears, Rainbow Dash, Garble, Gilda 2011hours, October 4, 1971 Gilda and Garble walked to a Red shipping container, it had a symbol of a sword and a scythe clashing together and with the initials C.O.R under it. Garble walked to the doors and released the latches. Once the doors were opened, Garble and Gilda walked into the metal container. They saw a single crate with the celestial creste plaster all over it. Garble walked to the crate and opened it. It healed six gems within it, all the Gems we’re shaped into symbols. A purple gem was in the shape of a diamond, the next was a blue balloon. Then Gilda got to a red lighting bolt recognizing it to be rainbow dash’s cutie mark. “Fuck garb we need to hury up hear” Gilda said with a nerves toun in her voice Garble was about to respond but was stop by a voice “And why is that” Gears asked anger in his voice. “Shit!” “Gears the princess’ Pet” “I know it we couldn’t trusted you” “Of course you couldn’t you Dusk sheil” Rainbow turned the corner and aimed her thompson at the two. “Dash just wait” “Wait!? What the fuck Gilda you turned on us Gears said you would be compromised but I never expected this” Garble reched for his gun and immediately aimed it at Gears and fired but before it could hit it Rainbow pushed him to the side taking the hit in the back instead. Gears rushed over to her trying to stop the bleeding. Gilda was freaking out but a claw was put on her shoulder. Gilda immediately followed him. GILDA YOU FUCK COME HERE AND HELP ME!” Gears yelled, putting pressure on Rainbow’s wound. Gilda looked at Rainbow on the ground. a tear formed in her eyes but Garble grabbed her tallion and they both ran with the elements on Garble's person. Gears was holding Rainbow. He was about to find something to stop the bleeding. An incendiary grenade was tossed in. Gears picked up Dash and ran out narrow avoiding the explosion. Gears looked up to see the shipping yard was up in flames. Gears picked up Rainbow and ran to the entrance. He ran through fire and gaps. Once he got into the gate he found two bodies on the ground, blood pouring from the corpses wounds. A big boom rumbled through the air as the city and the surrounding area was engulfed in a blinding gold light. Gears was dumbstruck.
