Chapter 3, Ocean Stronghold

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I teleported to Ocean Megaspell Facility 1 where Gemstone and Starlight were located. The facility is one of 4 built in the ocean; the war had left several islands that would have made fine strongholds gone or too small to be useful. Building the facilities was not easy. Ocean infrastructure has to endure harsh weather and there were pirates. Most of the Pirates were using sailboats, but there were a few using old military vessels. They were not a big problem, but they were a problem nonetheless.

“Welcome empires. Now that you are here, I’d like to discuss an issue that has been bothering me.”

“Sure thing Starlight, what's the issue?”

“The artillery has scared off the pirates using sailboats, but the ones with those fucken military ships have not given up! They have to be dealt with!”

Gemstone then entered the room.

“Starlight, I may have a solution. Meet Courser R6-S8.” Behind her was a pegasus wearing a pair of sunglasses along with the usual courser jacket whose traits were a blend of Rainbow’s and Sorin’s. She removed her sunglasses revealing that her left eye was magenta, and her right eye was emerald green.

“I see you have put a good use to the DNA. Now may you explain how she different from previous cursors”

To my surprise R6-S8 began to speak in a semi robotic Rainbow Dash voice.

“I can survive in almost any toxic environment. I may look like a normal pony on the outside but my skeleton is cybernetically enhanced. I have much higher endurance, strength, intelligence, and agility”

I just rolled my eyes.

“Can she deal with the problem or not?”

“Yes I’ve already briefed her on the pirates.” Gemstone's earrings began to glow and she levitated an object out of her saddle bag which she gave to R6-S8. “When you get on the ship, place this time bomb in the engine room. Make sure to prevent the crew from closing watertight doors. The ship will go under when the bomb detonates.”

Just then the facility's raid alarm went off. R6-S8 made a run for the nearest exit. I teleported outside and flew up to watch the show. R6-S8 along with a few other Coursers made it to the ships and began to plow through the zebras. The zebras must think Equestria and the Crystal Empire are one of the same even though they’re not! My mother Princess Cadence declared neutrality when the war began and my father; Shining Armor, agreed. That did not go over well with my aunt Twilight and Princess Luna. Twilight and Luna Felt betrayed while Fluttershy was mostly grateful. The other ministry mares and my cousin didn't take a side. Ponies like Gemstone who wanted no part in the war immigrated to the Crystal empire; Although I think Gemstone would have been ok with the war happening if a lid could have been kept on it for a year. She was studying abroad when the war started and had to return home a year sooner than she was planning to. Realizing the opportunity to get information about why these pirates are raiding the facility I started flying to the ships.
