Glacier Breeze will have her own segment and a flash back
Glacier Breeze: Introduction
It had been now four months since the peace talks and Glacier Breeze was seen flying recklessly toward the Castle of the Two Sisters. The young mare almost tipped a cart of apples over and barely grazed a mail pony. Once she arrived she landed on the waxed marble floor and slid to a halt. Glacier saw her father who was a three-star general and many other officers. Glacier Breeze was told why she was there and as her father was about to remove her rank a messenger entered and whispered to Luna.
In a brief moment, a pair of griffins walked in. One she recognized as the brother of the griffin who died in front of her face and the other his mourning father.
4 months ago
Glacier Breeze captain of the 103rd airborne division was forced to scatter as they were ambushed from above and shot at by a cloud of arrows and bolts from the ground. Glacier barrel rolled and saw two brothers side for her specifically. Both got wounded and as they plummeted to the ground and passed her as she had used her wings to air brake her dive. She dove for one and barely saved his life.
The present
She awkwardly glanced at the young griffin lord-to-be and wished she had tried harder to get airborne again. "Your majesties I'm here to discuss our terms of surrender and how we might build an alliance. If we may, can your captain be privy to the matter?"
"I my Lord Tungsten do not see what harm it can do."
"I and my fellow lords think it may advantageous to you and my people that we integrate a claw or hoof picked three hundred to integrate into each other's livelihoods and as they all will be reported to us; this I hope will induce a sense of trust." The talk lasted several days and weeks but it came to a head when they all agreed that each integrated soldier will be housed with a family.
By this point though, Glacier was removed from the throne room and paced. She and 299 others received orders and a letter and were sent to griffinstone. Among them was Sgt. Crimson of the 504th Recon division and Lt. Sweet Mint of the 235th Artillery Division.
When they arrived at the griffinstone depot and began dispersing to their new lodgings Sweet Mint, Crimson realized that Glacier Breeze lived on the same block. Glacier gently raised a hoof and knocked, the door swung open and the girl who answered exclaimed, "It's you!"
"You're that pegasus that my brother won't shut up about! Come on in, sorry that the rest of my family aren't here to greet you. I'm Shale, you know Graphite already, my mother in the photo is named Platinum and my father Lord Halberd. I also have a little sister named Ember and she's a ball of energy. She is also a bit racist toward ponies and the citizens of Equestria since the war had begun; she might be harsh and rude with you and your species for a while."
"Thanks for the warning, I just want to tell you how sorry I am for your loss...." Glacier's voice trailed off as she remembered how the brother had passed on. The look in Shale's eyes was heart-wrenching and yet held the look of one who seemed that they knew more than you think.
"Graphite told me a bit of the incident already, he also told me he never saw a foe risk so much to save an enemy and then try to save another through their injuries. Believe me, when I tell you I will do what I can to make sure you receive from our highest lords the "Distinguished Heart of Gold" medal. You deserve it and don't deny that your heart is gold." Glacier Breeze made an excuse to go take a little rest, as she lay on the couch Shale covered her with a blanket. The latter had gone to freshen up before the family arrived home.
Graphite saw the blanketed mass and assumed that it was Shale and went in for a tackle, he flipped out when Shale appeared in the doorway of her room looking terrified. Suddenly he landed on the mass and it lashed out the last thing Graphite saw was the frog of an equine hoof as it slammed into his eye. Rolling off, he cried in pain and Glacier Breeze had her hoof back ready to strike again.
"Bro! That it is why you fucking look before you leap!"
"Shale watch your language..... it's not ladylike to curse, and Graphite please apologize to our honored guest."
Graphite looked sheepishly at the pegasus before him, he now was realizing how cute she was....he felt bad tackling her. "Sorry, Ms. Breeze for......tackling you like that." Glacier smirked and leaped from the sofa and hugged him.
"Glad to see ya again....and sorry for the shiner you're gonna have." As the rest of the family nodded in satisfaction Ember asked an inappropriate question.
"When are you going start making love?" Graphite and Glacier looked shell-shocked, and the parents were horrified and Shale yanked her sister to the kitchen.
"You little shit!" Was the harsh whisper, "you fucking don't ask others that question....got it?" Ember nodded and flipped Shale off with her middle claw and walked out of the kitchen and went upstairs. For the rest of the day until dinner.
Glacier and the others had a wonderful time getting to know each other better. Graphite did his very best to keep his thoughts clean.
Glacier Breeze and her squad were ordered to head to the left flank of griffins and impede their progress through a gorge. Glacier Breeze as they flew to the west she saw in the east a contingent and she decided to slow the contingent down best she could tell it was about a thousand spears and these soldiers were infantry. As they made their approach and began their dive Glacier gasped and yelled, "Pull out!" At that moment she heard the twang of arrows and bolts, "Roll out and perform evasive maneuvers!" She rolled and barely missed getting hit but saw two griffins chasing her down but they got hit by stray arrows. Using her wings like dive brakes she stopped her dive.
The two griffins dropped past her and weren't slowing down. She dove and barely caught him as they hit the ground. She dropped at impact and felt bones in her body break and she stood and limped and tried to get airborne to save the other griffin. She almost got airborne but crashed to the ground as the griffin hit the cold cave floor, where she and the other griffin had landed. The sound of bones breaking met her ears and she wept because she wasn't able to save him.
With his last breath, the griffin slid his pendant on her neck and gasped, "My brother can protect you when the rescuers get here. You're a good mare, please keep him alive."
"I will, even if it kills me." She silently swore as the griffin passed on. Over the next few days, she fed and kept the other griffin named Graphite alive. She used his signal mirror from his supply pack and had no luck. Finally, she got some luck. She signaled six griffin scouts and as they dove in, she after a few seconds felt something collide with her damaged body. Biting bet lip to keep from screaming, she looked at the eyes of her soon-to-be killer. A spear was thrust straight through her barrel and she did her best to muffle her scream. She has then pulled up the spear shaft and she felt a griffin beak encase her muzzle. Glacier was being forced into a kiss, she complied just to keep
In griffin society when an enemy wears the pendant of royalty and evidence that they had saved a life of a family member of that particular House, then they are to be under the protection of that house. Since Graphite was there and his brother's body was there and it was evident that Glacier had done no harm she was spared from execution. The griffins didn't take prisoners, they usually raped them then killed them.
When Graphite was well enough he was furious with what happened to Glacier Breeze he had that soldier executed. In about two days Glacier disobeyed her orders of bed rest and went before the griffin lords and made a suggestion of being under the flag of truce and using her as collateral. The princesses were at first angry for the insubordination from Glacier Breeze but at the same time grateful that Glacier was able to get peace talks going. Glacier in great pain lay on her medical cot with Graphite nearby asking the medics to keep, "That pegasus alive at all costs". Graphite wanted to keep Glacier Breeze alive for his brother's sake since she was under his and his family's protection as long she lived.

Sweet Mint will have more time but this is just a set up for the rest of the story
Sweet Mint: Introduction
After dropping Glacier Breeze at her new residence, Crimson traveled to where Sweet Mint was going to be living. Crimson took a look around the place the best she could. She eye-balled the nearest shops and restaurants, all of the alleyways, and took note of where the nearest bars were. "C'mon Crimson, this isn't a war zone anymore and besides it's not like that one mission where you were powerless to help that mare getting hurt."
"I know... it's just that I want to keep you safe. I promised your folks to do so. This home has older griffins with two kids they had grown up and have at least ten grandkids; that's the best I can gather." As if on cue an elderly couple landed nearby and introduced themselves as Sweet Mint's new landlords or housemates. Sweet Mint soon as she and Crimson entered was two young couples with four and five kids walked up and enter.
She leaned in and whispered into Crimson's ear, "Damn you nailed it!" Crimson made her exit and Sweet Mint got herself situated in a guest room and the kids were like teenagers and had the air of being stuck up and disrespectful except for one.
"So Sweet Mint, according to the letter you gave my folks, you were an artillery officer?"
"Yep, I was, I particularly favored the Skorpion, it's like an oversized crossbow."
"Nice, I don't know if I told you my name but it's Quebec or Que if you so wish."
"Well Que, it's gonna be fun having spending time here, according to my friend's recon work and research...the griffin race have a major holiday coming up. What is the holiday like?"
"Well, it can be compared to your Hearth's Warming Eve...I suppose. One difference is all of the singles are required to attain a date from two weeks from now to the culmination of the holiday. Give my brothers Leonardo and Persimus time and I think they have an interest but don't know how to show it, my cousins Kelvin and Celsius could fall for you. Anyways I was told to let you rest and..." With no warning, Sweet Mint flipped out the window and grabbed Que and they landed in a snowdrift below the window. Quebec had screamed the whole way down. The others appeared and seemed unconcerned.
Quebec was known to be a thrill seeker and they figured Sweet Mint was too. The only thing visible of the pair was Que's beak and Sweet's muzzle. Unbeknownst to the family, a four-way rivalry was about to ensue between cousins and siblings. Sweet Mint was proving to be an excellent guest, and she was very playful and flirtatious with the four rivals as they tried to woo her.
Crimson stood alone after leaving Sweet Mint and Glacier at their new residences; her home was built on a busy street corner. She began her recon of the area. The house showed signs of about 3 to 4 kids a single parent. Crimson began to walk the streets and ask about her new housemates. Crimson had finished her recon and sat in a pub across the street from the house around 7 pm. As the time dragged out, she heard a deep voice ask the bartender, "So I heard that a unicorn from Equestria is asking about me, damn it all! My family and bi have been waiting for our special guest all day. If what I was told is correct the inquiries are done by our guest who I am told is the best in recon."
Crimson began to choke on her beer, "fuck me" she thought as she realized she lost track of time. She slowly walked up to the massive griffin.
"My good sir...I am the one who asked about you...I am so sorry for keeping all of you waiting....I.....lost track of time."
"I figured as much when I spoke with a Sweet Mint in the market today. She also said I should be gracious about it because something from your past has made you OCD about being thorough."
"Yes Sir." Was her short reply. Walking beside him back to his house Crimson realized how drunk she was and was afraid of what she might have said. In the overall scheme of things, Crimson had only a few shots of a weaker beer than what she was accustomed to. When they arrived dinner was set by a housekeeper who took her to leave. The griffin's children were three in total and were on their phones.
"Kids please put your phones away and say hi to our guest."
"Sure whatever dad. Hi Crimson...I'm Aphrodite and you don't fuck up my life more than it already is."
"Fine dad...Crimson I'm Hercules and you look like a great toy to have around."
The final child didn't even respond. Crimson who had come from a broken home and lived a trashed life of her own grew infuriated for the disrespect of their father used her magic to toss their phones into the room behind her and levitated them all and slammed them into a wall.
"Look you little shits!" Crimson said raising her voice a few decibels. "Your dad asked a simple request and you respond with that attitude or no response at all. I know your mother is gone, try living with some parents who don't care what you did and spend time in and out of juvenile correction facilities and having to put up your child for adoption because you couldn't care for it and never knowing how that kid ended up!" Crimson put the teens back in their chairs and stood up and walked out to the backyard where she had remembered seeing a bench.
As she sat there in the cool spring night listening to the crickets she heard steps behind her as something had landed from a near-silent flight. Turning her head she saw that it was the one who had been silent.
"Miss Crimson.....I um.....wanted to apologize for not saying anything to you and disregarding my dad. My name is......Helena."
"Names of ancient deities of an ancient culture, classy as fuck....shit sorry didn't mean to cuss, I try not to when I'm around youngsters."
"You're fine, I hear worse at school. Mom had left dad a few years back and from time to time we see her with the guy she ran off with. Dad right now has another lady in his life and we don't like her that much. If you like I can share my room with you."
"Thanks, sorry for losing my cool back there."
"About that, I'm guessing you were talking about yourself?"
"I was, you're too young to know the details right now. I should go back and eat....race ya!" As the pair bolted leaving a trail of pine needles that they kicked up still resettling they reached the back door and went back to eat. As they are, Hercules flipped Crimson off, the latter used her magic to twist his finger. Aphrodite didn't talk at all.
That night Crimson pulled out her laptop and did some digging on the family. Meanwhile, she texted the others like Sweet Mint and Glacier Breeze. While checking her email, she saw a note from her captain. Captain Lead-weight told her that a young unicorn recruit named Blood-Drop Ruby (who just answered to Ruby) who specializes in stealth was stationng a few blocks away. Looking at the picture but the mare had a very coincidental feature; the mare had the smile that she had and a small birthmark in the left ear like she had. Crimson had a job to do in the morning.
Blood-Drop Ruby stood in front of a modest home, the slightly chipped white-wash walls with trim painted in a sky blue hue. The windows were blocked with lacey white curtains. Two griffin children played in the yard, their mother sat on a rocking chair peeling snap peas. Gingerly Ruby walked up to the porch. "Good morning Miss Lilac, I'm Blood-Drop Ruby, but most everyone else just call me ruby."
"Hello Ruby, the two kids are my daughter Sunflower, and my son Iron." Then Lilac called her children to the porch. "Kids say hi to Miss Ruby." The children greeted her and proceeded to hug her.
Ruby had just turned her head as a glint of light reflecting off glass caught her eye. She barely saw the form of a pint ducking and retreating into an alley. Shrugging she sat down and levitated a snap pea and proceeded to peel it. "So......Lilac, how long have you been married?"
"Going forty years now, our kids were adopted sometime after we married. I was thirty-five and my husband was thirty-eight and we weren't able to have kids of our own so we adopted. How about you Ruby, what are your parents like?"
"Never knew them, everypony back home back on our military base occasionally call me Crimson for some reason. Anyways, one day I'll find my mother or maybe my father even both and I'll ask why they gave me up."
"A few blocks away my cousin has a pony named Crimson living with him and his kids. Those children need a mother somehow someway; they've been a claw or hooful and very rebellious." At that moment the father and husband came home.
"Hey dear," he exclaimed as he hugged his wife lovingly, "who's this cutie?"
"Try to get in bed with me and I'll cut you" Ruby hissed as she used her magic to pin the griffin against the wall.
"Ruby dear, he won't and never will cheat one or get cozy with any other. That is how he talks please don't kill him...if anyone does it'll be me." Blood-Drop Ruby released him and backed away.
"Sorry, sir.....I let my emotions get the better of me."
"No harm done....well nothing permanent that is. I met a peculiar pony named Sweet Mint at the market, she is like that pink pony that a princess of Equestria has in her entourage. She is very......hyperactive."
Once all of the peas were peeled and the stew was ready the family sat down to eat. The kids who were more like young teenagers were very polite and the son Ruby could tell throughout the day that the meal was hitting on her. She wanted to tell him that she was at least by appearance was at least four years his senior. Little did she know that he hadn't hit his growth spurt yet and that he would be hitting it soon and the youngsters were a year younger than Ruby herself.
Glacier was spending the day with her pony friends, Crimson, Sweet Mint, and a pony medic named Pulse. As they trotted about the city of griffinstone, they entered a bar to order a drink. When they got their tabs, they were being charged double what the menu had said. They paid...Crimson lost her temper at being cheated and lied to.
"What the hell! The menu says the "Bloody Tirek" costs 5 talons, which is the equalivent of 15 bits! I am not going to pay a lying son of a diamond dog bitch!" They were all rudely thrown to the streets, and many of the griffin patrons had dealt our blows, Glacier told her friends to walk on. She gingerly walked back in and paid for what Crimson consumed plus a bonus to pay for the shot glass that Crimson smashed in her rage.
Farside of the city
A dark grey pegasus, two neon-colored ponies one an earth pony the other a unicorn had just met up with a mint green unicorn and a pink/purple earth pony with a wooden leg and an eye patch over her left eye. The small group entered a tavern to have lunch. As they paid the mint green unicorn looked at her friends.
"Well, girls this has been fun but I promised my landlords that I'll pick their kids up from school." As she gave their waiter her bits he scowled because she was short by three talons. "Is there an alternate form of payment we can settle with? I can come back after I pick up my landlord's children and work off what I owe." The manager of the tavern when he heard this from the waiter consented.
That evening Mistletoe was beginning to regret this option, her friends offered to cover the difference but she turned them down. Before her, she saw that the lowest of griffins were out. They made cat-calls to her and she tried to ignore the rude insults being hurled at her. She had just emptied her tray of drinks and was walking past a table when a patron pulled her in closer.
The assaulting griffin slammed her on top of the table and began to move his hips and rub his cock on her vagina. The companion directly across from him shoved his cock into her mouth. She felt their cum as they orgasmed soak her barrel and the griffin fucking her face shoved in further and she had to swallow his sperm and felt some slide down her face. She got assaulted by six young griffins who thought that what they did was fun. The manager, however, to spite his hate for the pony race since a pony had killed his only son on the battlefield had the teens arrested while he helped get Mistletoe clean herself up after she was interviewed by the magistrates. She trudged home once her debt was considered settled. She sent a text to Glacier Breeze who was in charge of some 500 ponies residing in Griffinstone. Mistletoe and texted her pegasus friend Little Blind. That dark grey mare and her black and red mane were known among Equestrians as a whirlwind of rage and vengeance when it came to her friends.
Meanwhile
"Hercules! Aphrodite! For the love of whatever fucking deities exist (if any)! Clean your damned rooms already."
"Go fuck yourself bitch!" Aphrodite screeched as she hurled a book and barely missed Crimson.
Crimson was tackled by Hercules who was trying to get into Crimson. The mare used a blast to shove the griffin off, then she put the two older kids in a hex spell so if they tried to leave the house or their rooms, they'd get shocked by a high voltage electrical shock.
Moxie Moonlight
Moxie read the text Mistletoe sent her and it brought back memories of her past. The griffin family she lived with was a bit shady at best but very nice to her. The son when his folks weren't around joked about impregnating her or at least making her have set with him over the holidays. His sister wasn't much better; the sister had joked about abusing her 'crippled figure' for her bodily pleasures.
Overall Glacier was trying to sleep but the texts from the angry pony soldiers under her command of this integration program were all livid! She eventually turned her phone off. "Why Celestia? Why was put in charge of this massive host?" She pondered this until she dozed off.
