“One bullet could unleash the fury of the nations” – John MacTavish (CoD MW2)

"Princess, we have a major situation at any costs of Equestria" The royal guard quickly approach the Princess.

Princess Celestia stands up from her royal throne, feel panic and bewildered since every city at Equestria starts a fight between the ponies and changelings. Walk down to the stairs and approach the royal guard and asked "What's up the rush" she was very nervous when see the royal guard bring the report scroll "It's the report from our air reconnaissance" the guard bring the scroll to the princess and leaving, when princess open the scroll, she was oppressed, the report was about the downfall cities in Equestria, at least seven cities has been conquered by the changelings.

Princess has downed for a while, her face is glum, "I am the worst princess they ever had, I supposed to be not let that Queen alive, there's no way" she speak for herself as she starts to stand up and look at the stained glass window with the picture of herself raising the sun represent the brand new day has been rising, she continued her speak "I will confirm a kill order for the queen" she raised up again and her face look very serious. She gets back to her room and write the scroll to her best lieutenant, she picks up the quill with her magic and write the letter to the lieutenant, after she is done with the letter, she asks one of the royal guards to give it to the assassin at once. Princes Celestia is trying to calm down by sitting down at the Castle's terrace and enjoy the warm tea, as she lay on the table with the smile and think everything is under control.

The guard quickly runs to the military camp where he can find Celestia's best lieutenant, after arrived at the camp, he looked at lieutenant, she was practicing at the target range and firing her gun, the sound of the rifle just made the world a little bit tremble, "Ma'am" the guard interrupts her for a while.

She glanced at the royal guard and pause her practice for a while, the guard continues to speak "You must be Lt. Derpy hooves?" the lieutenant nodded and give the warm smile to the guard, and asked "Yes, that's me, what's up?" the guard showed Princess' scroll to Derpy "Sorry for interrupting, princess Celestia needs to see you at the castle's terrace" the lieutenant opens the scroll and read it, she ask to the guard "A assassination mission?" her eyes bulged "I never see a search mission like this before"

The guard persuades him to accept her mission "You have to, it's a direct order from princess".

As the guard explain what is exactly happening at Equestria "The cities around the Equestria is on the terror from the changelings lieutenant, if you don't stop the queen, soon, she will conquer the whole area on the Equestria".

The lieutenant with honestly accept the mission "Okay, okay, I will accept the mission" she put the letter on the crate "Just tell the princess, I will come as quick as possible"

The Guard nodded and return to the castle, Lt. Derpy still confused, she scratched her head and act like the fool "I don't know why, but, it was a first time she was giving me the assassination mission, all I know, she never asks some pony to assassinate other nemesis, the only pony gives me that order is Capt. Shine" she asks to herself but she still confused. She decide to the castle and talk about it to the princess, she opens her wings and flew away from the camp and swiftly to the castle. Her flying experience was very strong, so she always performs the signature tricks along the way, not uncommon that she often hit other ponies or the other material.

After she looked the castle not far from her exact position, she's going low and land on the castle's entrance, she closes her wings and glanced at the princess was enjoying the scenery around the royal garden alone, lieutenant headed for the princess, but, two royal guards guarding the entrance of the royal garden blocking her path with the sharp royal spears "Hey, let me in." she revolt to the guards, the princess headed to the garden entrance and open the spears for Lt. Derpy, "Lieutenant, good to see you again in one piece." she greets lieutenant with a warm smile and the sweet voices "Thank you my princess" lieutenant takes a bow to the princes.

Lieutenant asks to the princess "Princess, why you give me an assassination mission" princess is quiet for a while and avoid the eye contact, she looks very dazed and panic of something, lieutenant try to snap out of it from Celestia's mind "Princes, are you okay?"

The princess glanced at Derpy "Oh, I am fine" princess is blushed and persuade Derpy to the terrace "Let us discuss this problem at the terrace" she pushed Derpy with her right wing.

Princess Celestia and Derpy both entered the terrace lounge, princess Celestia let me sit right next to Derpy. The lieutenant asked "Princess, tell me, why I have to be assigned for this assassination mission?" she knocks the table but not too hard "Why you not assigned other ponies for that?".

The princess glanced at the garden and avoid the eyes contact "Lieutenant, my reason I assigned you for this assassination mission" she turned her head to the bottom "Because you are the best soldier I ever have" Derpy's ears is raised while she heard that word "Really?"

Princess grabs the glass of the tea and drink it a bit, she paused for a while "Yes, you are" she smiled softly "Every soldiers even the royal guards in these castles are talking about you my dear" she continued drinking the tea, Derpy is smiling, she blink her eyes and her eyes was crossed "Everyone is talking about me?" she pushes her both cheeks with her hooves "That was cool" her voice is shrill.

Princess Celestia drops her glass of tea and look around the terrace, when the lounge is quiet, she explains about the assassination order to Lt. Derpy "Well, let's get to the point of this assassination mission" Princess showed the picture of the Changeling's queen picture "The name is Queen Chrysalis, she was become the genuine threat to the Equestria, especially for me" she put the picture and give it to Derpy, she look away and tell everything about the queen "seven months ago, she was invading Canterlot, but, it was deleted by the elements of love." princess look at Derpy with a serious gaze"I thought it will banish the queen for ever, but I was wrong, few city at Equestria has reaching it's downfall"

Derpy grab a glass of tea and drink it, after a half of the tea she drink, she paused and understand the princess's feeling "Oh, I get it, so, princess wants me to assassinate the queen, so the city will remain in peace, don't you?" she drink the tea until her glass is empty.

"Yes, but you must hurry" Princess warns lieutenant "I she conquered Canterlot, she will turn every ponies into a changelings"

Derpy with honesty accept the Princess' notice "Will do my princess"

"Princess!" the soldier is shout to the princess as he run to the princess Celestia "Princes! ..." He breaks a sweat.

"Please calm down" Princess ask the panic soldier with softly "Tell us, what's going on" she approach the  soldier.

"The changelings assault our north perimeter" the guard pointing his hooves to the north wall "we try to hold it, but, our soldiers are dying, we are requesting the immediate backup"

Derpy glanced at the north perimeter, she saw the magic shot to the sky, the changelings flying in front of the perimeter, the voice of the groaning of the dying soldiers can be heard from the castle, she looked at the sky the wonderbolts fly to the north perimeter to assist the soldiers there. Derpy with the serious gaze, voluntarily give a hand to the soldiers at the north perimeter "I will help them." Princess nods her head "Help them my dear, the destiny of the Equestria is on your hooves." Derpy and the soldier leave the castle and head to the north perimeter, the changeling's artillery bombardments tear the north side of the Canterlot. All ponies there was injured and being evacuated, when the artillery bombardment hit the land next to the Derpy, she was falling down, the soldier help Derpy to stand "Come on lieutenant, we are almost there" Derpy stands up and keep running to the north perimeter.

She looks above and see the wonderbolts and the changelings has the great battle upon the sky, while she at the street leading to the north perimeter, the changelings have the street under siege, as they looked at the both Lt. Derpy and the Soldier, they chased the boat, "Quick, trough the building" The soldier leads the lieutenant to the three story house and breaching in. After they had inside, Lt. Derpy closes the door and block it with heavier materials "It will hold them for now" she sit down for a while, she ask to the soldier "How far the perimeter is?" the soldier is try to find another way to the perimeter, he lifts up the heavy object to clear the path "Not far from here" he cleans his sweat as he finished making the path and went along it "We just need to pass through this building" Lt. Derpy stand up and continue the way to the perimeter, she asked to the soldier "Does Captain shine was there?" the soldier is nodding his head "Probably he was the leader of the north perimeter's battalion" he lift the other obstacles blocking the path for the both, Derpy help the soldier with generously, after the path is cleaned.

The soldier continues his speak "Captain Shining armor is the most responsible captain we ever have, the brave captain who want to fight against the evil of the dark spirits, me and captain has very close, I always follow his direct order and he always makes me so proud of everything" Derpy started to like the soldier and want him to become her partner, she asked the soldier's name "Oh yes, I still don't have your name."

"I am Sgt. Bombshell" The soldier introduced himself "From the 21st assaulter regiment"

"What a nice name, maybe you can be my partner for my new mission" she give the soldier a smile, Bombshell is return smile to Derpy "Maybe we could get more bit closer" Derpy walk to the dark part of the building, it still 03.00 PM and the sky was clear, but in that building, all ventilation were shut deeply "It's too dark here, I almost can't see anything."

Bombshell cast the spell from his horn to light their path "This will light our path" he gives Derpy a pistol "Take this, you will need some weapon soon" they continued to walk to the north perimeter.

The both finally reach the north perimeter, they climb to the top floor of the building complex, they can see so many gunshots were released, the dying soldiers are falling apart, Derpy see her captain trapped in the cafe "Look, its Captain shine." she pointed to the cafe building in front of the building complex the both were standing on now, Sgt. Bombshell gives Derpy a sniper rifle "Here, I will tell you the enemy's positions, you take care them all" she reload the sniper and take out every changelings surrounding the cafe.

After the corner around the cafe is clear from the changelings, the soldiers who trapped in the cafe moved to the building complex across the street, Sgt. Bombshell and Lt. Derpy head down to the main room where they meet with the captain Shine and the other soldiers from the 21st assaulter regiment.
