"so, what's the plan?"

After her question, a stony silence ensued, as her friends' faces changed their grimaces ominously.

In Dawn's case, her mouth went from gaping open like a fish to simply smirking with a frown of frustration.

On amber's part, her mouth was closed in a straight line, her eyes held open like saucers while her right eye twitched and she clenched her hands tightly.

In the case of pillows, for some reason she never reacted with shock, rather her face showed pure ecstasy like a child who had just been given a bag of candy.

In the case of Abby (abundace) she went from showing a face of shock with her mouth open, to slowly smiling mischievously, while her brow furrowed in obvious annoyance.

Whis, on the other hand, went from being surprised to having a face that to people who did not know her would look calm and peaceful, with a slight smile, loose shoulders, hands behind her back and a relaxed face, or so it would be if her jaw was not tense and her eyelids were not slightly half closed. However, for those who knew her, seeing her expression without much hesitation broke their own reactions to slowly move out of the way of the pegasus, who slowly approached her adopted sister with a face that hid her true intentions, which erased her sister's smug smile and made her nervous.

"uhhh, Whis, is-is everything okay?"

"Sureooo, why wouldn't it be?"

"ehmmm, well-

"I mean, you just hit Crown on an emotional impulse, made him bleed, stole his first kiss without warning, and-"

"Wait, how do you know it was my first-

"NOT NOW CROWN!" shouted Whis in pent-up fury, immediately returning to her "peaceful" state.

"...like I was saying, it's not that big of a deal, I mean it's not like in addition to all of the above you knew that I liked HIM right?. Why would I be mad?" She concluded sarcastically as she put a hand on her shoulder and squeezed hard, penetrating her skin with her nails until she drew blood, causing Stella to wince.

At the same time Crown blushed like a cherry as he discovered that his little Crush with his friend and personal doctor was reciprocated.

"Okay, okay, I get it, sorry!" Stella put her hands up defensively.

"Oh, don't worry dear sister, very fortunately for YOU, we have something more urgent to deal with, besides I know perfectly well that you're not the "only one" besides me." said Whis looking at her friends with a mischievous smile, causing a chill to run down their spine.

"I always knew that sooner or later I would have to consider sharing." she said with a tone of frustration and resignation.

Fuck, they thought. Did she know?!

"Oh and Crown?" asked Whis, removing any negative aura from a moment ago, slowly approaching him further confusing crown who was still on the ground, but now without Stella's weight on top of him.

"Y-yes?"

Taking his face in her delicate hands, she brought his face close to hers, brushing his dragon ears with her lips and whispered, "I have terms too: When you are older, I want to be the first to Know your anatomy... in depth" she said with a seductive smile, to later lick his ear in a sensual way and then do the same with his neck to then bite it, making the dragon let out a stifled moan of satisfaction.

Now with a triumphant smile she declared, "Ok, NOW, we can continue, go ahead dawn."

"..." the mares and dragon were speechless

"Did I hesitate?" Whis challenged someone to challenge her on this.

"Ahem," "anyway, about the war strategy..." Abundance decided to let the topic die for now.

"OH, yeah right. UHHmmm well..." Dawn was still processing everything

"Dawn..."

"I'm coming whis, give me a moment, geez." After calming her nerves after a few moments, while the others present did the same she continued:

"Let's see, thanks to the intel abby got us, we know that: A)They have an air unit with mainly pegasus and B)a ground unit mainly with unicorns."

"We can also assume thanks to the same intel that their air unit is highly limited, since if indeed their target is really the pegasus district, this clearly indicates that their bottleneck to be able to increase their level of destruction are their number of pegasus, why else would they seek to attack or possess an area abundant in civilian pegasus?"

"That makes sense to me," Pillows said.

"Ok, so if we assume those 2 points to be true our main focus should be their ground forces, However being unicorns they can use their magic to cause targeted damage and not area damage as is commonly the case with pegasus"

"that makes sense to me" pillows said.

"So the best strategy would be to make a plan in which we can attack the ground unit quickly and swiftly, so that before they can even get organized to counterattack their numbers drop enough so that they are no longer a problem."

"This also has the added benefit that it will create chaos in that the pegasus will be far enough away and confused enough from the battlefield that we can attack them at range with-"

"Assault rifles?" asked Abby mischievously.

"Yep, it's the safest and most efficient way I can think of. Targeted magic isn't very accurate at long distances and besides it's slow and flashy in comparison, which would..." explained dawn.

"Yes, yes. It could lead them to find the source of the attack and coordinate a counterattack in that direction more quickly," replied Abby.

"Right, well at what distance are your latest prototypes still effective and accurate?" asked Dawn.

"hmm let's see, the Dragu-nova C&A (This universe/fic's version of the Dragunov SVDM) can fire with relative certainty at about 800 meters or so if you use the necessary accessories, and it has a caliber of about 54 millimeters."

"Hmm, yes, that will work. Now, on the subject of ground forces..."

"Actually, I can think of something there," said crown interrupting the mares.

"oh?, Please dear, tell us." Abby encouraged

"Well, remember those vision burst grenades that were prototypical, what did you call them again, light grenades?"

"Flash grenades, dear."

"Yes, flash grenades. Well why don't we just use those grenades at key points surrounding the most unicorns, then in that moment of confusion and lack of vision we eliminate them with normal grenades and once that's done we can focus on the remnants of the ground forces while the rest us, use the Dragunova to eliminate the air forces?"

"..."

"That... is a very good plan but you forget one small detail: exactly how would we achieve to place both the multiple flash grenades needed as well as the multiple normal ones at the sites without being detected, with enough accuracy from long distance or with enough speed to have the element of surprise?"

"Does teleport ring a bell?" Crown smirked

"Dear as much as i can commend your teleporting abilities from long distance...That would need not only incredible accuracy, to teleport a HIGH numer of grenades in 2 consecutive rounds (round 1 flash and the other normal grenades) to mulitiple places of a place you have never seen or been to!"

"Who said i was going to do it long distance?" crowns smirked

"Ok, here is what im going to do:...."


Now, 1 kilometer away from the ever aproching apocaliptic hailstorm advancing, Crown was using his binoculars to see what was happening.

It seems they did right, for the troop of 100 soldiers was mostly gone, with a small bundle of 10 of them trying to run away their bodies mangled and their energy depleted.

"Ok, seems we did the right call." Crown passed the binoculars to dawn who now surveyed the area of cold destruction around the once green fields of hoofington

"Anyway i think i have seen enough of the area and key position of the horde from here, now all of you should get into position" he commanded as he put on a protective vest over his body and protective mask covering his eyes, ears and mouth. Being his "weak points" since as much as his scales could take bullet like hail coming from the sky and stand proud with only bruises. His eyes like you would expect were not made of scales...and his vision was key in what was about to unravel.

"i have my doubts of this plan of yours, but its the best we have now, and while i trust you i really hope you know what you are doing, you better get out of this whole , you hear me Mr!!" Dawn chided him

"We are about to find out. Ok, gals operation "Flash and blast" begins!"
