Tango Primary

“red crown?”

“Go ahead raptor two one.”

“I have eyes on tango primary. I repeat, I have eyes on James Heller. Requesting Permeation to engage.”

“Roger that raptor two one. You are cleared hot To engage Tango Primary”

“lets go, Quann”

“Right, Cooper.”

And the two soldiers of Raptor walked around the corner to engage the second prototype James Heller. Unaware that their lives would change forever. Cooper leveled his M4 assault rifle and Quann brought out his SAW (squad automatic weapon) and stepped around the corner they were going to avenge the rest of Raptor Company. Knowing that they had what other Blackwatch troops never had when it came to engaging Tango primary the element of surprise. Unaware that the lights on their gas masks, goggles and armor flashed a red (Quann) and orange (cooper) then back to blue.

They ran towards the Tango primary firing there weapons in short controlled bursts just as they were trained to do in the ranger special forces.

“FUCK YOU HELLER!” Quann shouted scoring 25 hits out of the 40 he shot.

“Fucking Blackwatch.” Heller said. transforming his arms into the hammer fist and slamming his right arm into the ground sending a shockwave through the ground toward them.

“Cooper, Jump now!” Quann shouted.

As the shockwave came toward them they both jumped over the broken ground created by the hammer fist And kept shooting when they hit the ground.

“Thanks, man” Cooper said, reloading his M4, Scoring almost every hit with that last mag.

“These fuckers ain’t bad.” Heller said taking more hits from Coopers M4 and from Quann’s SAW.

“but now they are pissing me off.” Switching to the whip fist he made a long swipe at the two Blackwatch troopers.

“Quann. Down slide now!” Cooper shouted to his friend as they both dropped down sliding on their knees.

‘If they did anything right with this uniform it is giving us knee pads.’ Both troopers thought

“What the FUCK!” Heller said, seeing the two he could tell they were friends since they were using first names instead of sir and their teamwork, dodge his a swipe from his whip fist when not even Mercer dodged it all he did was block, but now they were in range of his other attacks. With a smirk he switched to the blade arm. And waited as the one called Quann got up first.

“Fuck that was close.” Quann said as he stood up and extended a hand to cooper to help him up

“Thanks, Quann” Cooper said as he got up with Quann’s help they both pounded fists.

“no problem, bud.” Quann said to his younger friend of 19 while Quann was 21.

“Are you two done yet?” they herd Heller say and they both turned to him. And saw that his right arm was a huge blade they both aimed at him.

“Ok, just as we planned Cooper.” Quann said

“Right Quann.” He said.

“Your move,. . . . Blackwatch” Heller said with a smirk. Wanting to see what these two young troopers could do they were already proving they were better than those bulky Orion super soldiers.

Equestria,

1 week before twilight sparkle’s journey to Ponyville.

Night time.

Princess Celestia stands outside of her chambers on a balcony.

“I sense that a power full friendship is in jeopardy. I have to do something.”

Focusing concentrating on a centuries old spell when she opened her eyes again she was standing somewhere she had never seen before. It smelled of death and burning embers. She saw a poser that said NYZ-RZ and under that it said New York Zero Red Zone.

She turned her head to see two strangely armed and armored bipedal figures wearing one angled shoulder piece on their right foreleg with a rounded one on the other shoulder, a triangular blade with three strips of blue on the side of their left foreleg. Both had on midnight blue and black clothing. Under that with knee pads and their pants tucked into their boots and above the kneepads where metal coverings on the sides of their hind legs, collars made of metal behind their heads which were covered with hoods on their faces where gas masks and glowing blue goggles with one round eye on the left and three smaller circles on their right eye.

But there were a few differences the one on the right (Quann) with what appeared to be small child had another of those blades on the other fore hoof. And fingerless gloves like the other but unlike the other one his skin was brown while the other (Cooper) was a softer cream color they both have some kind of large tube on their back, Both of these two helping others who were not wearing any armor which she guest where civilians.

But standing away from them where a group of what she guessed where soldiers dressed like them but these soldiers where firing strange weapons at another group of civilians and disfigured civilians not caring if they hit the civilians.

Seeing this made her sick.

“What is happening?“ She said to herself, turning back to the other two expecting them to shoot the civilians as well but was shocked when they didn’t and another civilian turned to them with a quizzical look.

“Why aren’t you shooting us too?” He asked The duel bladed one who looked at him.

“Sir I joined Blackwatch to help people same as my friend here.” He said while the other one put another smaller one over the barricade. And say something to his friend.

“Quann, there not going to make it to the checkpoint alone. What should we do?” He asked

“We go with them to the checkpoint. hooah?” the now identified Quann said to Cooper.

“Hooah.” Cooper said

“Okay, now follow and stay behind me. Cooper you watch our flank and keep us covered. Rangers lead the way” Quann said, earning nods from the civilians and a salute form Cooper.

“All the way” Cooper said

“At least some of them have a heart.” Celestia said following the two as they lead the way.

Quann and Cooper have delivered the civilians to the extraction checkpoint. Still being followed by the Princess of the sun they get back only to see the Tango primary finish off their CO and dive behind cover both unknowingly in haling some stray tainted White light gas. They watched Tango primary walk off and they made a plan to avenge there Squad.

Now

“Your move. . . Blackwatch” Heller said going into his fighting stance.

“Fire!” Quann said

Causing both him and Cooper to fire there weapons at James Heller who charged forward jumping to do a down word slash at the two. Who both dodge rolled out of the way at the last second and focused on cooper but as he turned made a swing at him he rolled under and away from the attack.

Leaving Heller open to Quann’s SAW and taking 30 bullets to the back and side turning around he focused biomass into his legs and kicked Quann in the chest sending him flying into cooper and both hit a car making it bend from the impact and knocking Cooper unconscious.

“TIME TO END THIS!” Heller shouted and charged the two. Quann saw Him coming and got up. He slung his gun and got in front of his friend.

“He is going to sacrifice himself for his friend. I have to save them, with That spell. I just hope there is time to charge it.” Celestia said

'Fuck! I cant afford to dodge or else he will kill Cooperi hope this works.' Quann thought

As Heller Brought his Blade down on Quann who brought his left arm bayonet up.

The two blades met Heller’s Blade arm and Quann’s left Arm bayonet. To both’s surprise there was a loud clang.

The blades locked instead of the usual where Heller’s Blade would cut you down the middle the blades and there wielders. They were locked in a power struggle. Heller was shocked no one was ever able to stop his blade except Mercer.

‘Could he be an evolved. . . no I killed all of them. Unless…’ Heller was brought out of his thoughts when he felt a slash go from the bottom of his chest to his collar bone and felt like he was being drained from that slash. Looking down he saw some of his biomass go into the Blackwatch troopers right arm.

‘He doesn’t know but how unless that CANISTER I blew up! It must have been the last canister of white light then I did see two guys show up just as I killed that one trooper it must have been there CO. These are the two who helped those civilians. The gas must have been diluted by the time they got back and is just now taking affect. I have finish this now’ Heller Thought.

BOOM

Heller was knocked backwards with a whole in his chest looking up he saw that this new evolved Quann had pulled out a shotgun and shot him in the chest he saw large chunks of biomass absorbed into the trooper and by the looks of it unnoticed.

‘What the fuck why do I feel stronger from that slash and that blast from getting chunks on me? No matter I have to keep Cooper safe.’

Looking down he saw the lights on his armor glow red then back to blue. He got into a fighting stance and waited for Heller to attack.

“Your move. . . Heller.”

Heller charged switching his blade to his claws in his left hand and the hammer fist in the other. When he got in range he slashed at the evolved with his claws but, that was blocked and as the two blades struggled Heller brought down the hammer fist. Quann saw it coming and punched. The hammer fist and Quann’s Fist met but because of the blade on his left hand he cut into Heller’s Hammer fist and unknowingly drained biomass from Heller.

‘SHIT if I don’t think of something he is going to overpower me… wait I’ve got it!’ Quann thought.

‘The spell is almost done, just hold him off a little longer Quann.’ Celestia thought as she was charging the spell and watching the fight. She saw the flash of red again on Quann.

‘Damn that’s the third time that flash has happened and its getting longer. It must be the same with his friend.’ Heller thought

“Hay Heller.” Quann said

“What?” he asked.

“This!” Quann used Heller’s arms as springs to hoist himself up and kick him in the chest sending him flying backwards, but not before scratching Heller again. Heller swiped at him with the whip fist but it was only blocked.

“AAHH!” Quann screamed as the lights flashed red again and he was covered in black and red tendrils. His arms turned into the same claws as Heller’s. Going unnoticed by the princess of the sun

‘Fuck his transformation is complete and he copied my claws I can only guess he has my shield, blade, whip, and hammer fist too.’ Heller thought.

‘The spell is done. Here goes nothing. Welcome to Equestria, you two’ Celestia thought as the spell activated.

Heller crouched and focused all of his biomass in to going outward. He was going to us the critical mass attack.

“Fuck, Cooper!” Quann said as his arms and lights went back to normal. He dashed over Cooper, who’s lights flashed Orange.

“NOW DIE!” Heller shouted as tendrils shot out of his body at the two. Just as they were about to be squared in a bright flash of golden light they were gone, weapons and all.

“got them.” Heller said and walked away.

Portal to Equestria

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!” Quann’s whole body hurt but more so in his back and his head. As visions of a land a planet that was not his. His whole body changed as he was transformed into a quadruped. The burning in his back intensified as wings sprouted and skull spit as a horn appeared and knowledge of a life he didn’t live was installed but keeping the integrity of his old life.

FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!” Quann shouted in pain as he and his unconscious friend slammed into the ground.

‘Grown’

‘chirp’

“Fuck you, I don’t want to get up.” Quann said

‘chirp’

“OK, what the fuck” he said as he opened his eyes and tried to stand up and fell flat on his ass.

Looking down he saw that instead of arms and legs he had 4 hooves. He got up and looked at his right bayonet and saw that he had a set of wings on his back and a horn on his head and was still in his Blackwatch uniform, which had somehow changed with him. Seeing a nearby rock he focused on it and levitated it in a blood red glow.
Finding balance he stood up on his hind legs ant turned his fore hooves into the claws, hammer fist, blade, shield and getting back on all fours.

Hearing a grown he turned his head and found another pony lying there on the ground in a Blackwatch uniform. It snapped who it must be.

“Cooper.” Quann said and ran to his side and saw that instead of having wings and a horn, Cooper just had wings but, one was broken and he was losing blood. Quann hoisting him onto his back and began walking toward a small cottage on the horizon.

“I hope somepony is home”

‘what the fuck did I just say?!’

A/N what do you think

New life new body

BANG

“Coming.” Fluttershy said, hearing the door knocking. Getting to the door she was greeted with the sight of a gas mask, goggles and an all-around intimidating ponies. She slammed the door in the ponies face.

“Well, that was rather rude.” Quann said. He noticed that he might look a little intimidating. He reached up and pulled his goggles up just below his horn, pulling down the gas mask to hang on his neck, and pulling down his hood. He knocked on the door again.

“Please go away.” He heard from the other side of the door.

“Please! My friend needs help.” Quann said. He saw the door open and saw a yellow mare with a pink mane and three pink and blue butterfly’s for her cutie mark and the kindest blue eyes he’s ever seen and those eyes widened when they saw Cooper on this new ALICORN’S back.

“Oh no. Quickly, bring him inside.” She said, motioning for him to put his friend on the couch.

“Please, wait in the kitchen, I-I mean if it is alright with you.” The mare said, hiding herself behind her mane.

“No it’s fine, just please help my friend.” Quann said.
Walking in and taking a seat in the kitchen while sitting he saw a mirror. He saw that his coat was a dark lavender and his eyes where purple border line pink. He also saw that his mane was medium length and was black with a blood red stripe going down the center looking behind him he seen that his tail was the same way. But what caught his attention was the cutie mark on his flank which was a yellow star with wings bordering it on the left and right. It was the Blackwatch symbol but what caught his attention was that inside of the star was a DNA double helix where the long parts where black and the connectors where red.

After a while Fluttershy came into the kitchen and Quann dashed in front of her.

“Thank you so much, is he okay?” he asked

“Yes, he’ll be okay, he just needs to rest.” She said, happy that this alicorn had gotten his friend some help when he did.

“Oh, I almost forgot my manners, my name is Quann. But you can call me Raptor two one, or just Raptor.” He said

“Nice to meet you, I’m Fluttershy.” She said with a timid smile.

“Well, I’m lucky I met somepony as kind as you when I did. Otherwise, I don’t know what would have happened.” Quann said, thinking for a moment then looking at a nearby calendar and gasped. The implanted memories kicking in. It was almost the Summer Sun Celebration and he realized what most of the decorations around the town were on his way here.

‘She was preparing for the ceremony, I wonder if there is something I could do to help.’ He thought.

“Is there anything I could do to make it up to you for helping my friend?” Quann asked.

“Well I don’t need any help but you could. I mean if it isn’t to much to ask. Could you help my friend Rarity, she needs help with decorations.” She replied.

“ok can you tell me how to get there pleas? I’m new here.” He replied with a smile

“Angel!” Fluttershy called and a white rabbit came out of the living room where Cooper was with an annoyed look on its face.

“Can you please show mister Raptor to Rarity’s boutique?” She asked, receiving a nod from the rabbit.

“Oh, before I forget!” Quann/Raptor reached into a pouch on his chest with his teeth and pulling out some kind of square with a blue screen and pressing with a hoof, and placing it on the table.

“What is that thing?” Fluttershy asked curiously, looking at the strange device on the table then looking back and finally taking into account all of the strange devices on this alicorn’s clothing.

“this is a two way communicator. I’m going to use it to leave a message for my friend so that he does not freak-out when he wakes up.” Quann replied putting back on the goggles and mask with the bangs of his mane obscuring him like the hood did but leaving his horn showing, and hitting record.

“Reaper One-One, this is Raptor two-one. You have be injured and I took you to a safe location. A mare here patched you up. Her name is Fluttershy she, the residents of this town, or her animals are registered non-hostile. If you are wondering how we got here all I can remember is you being knocked unconscious and I broke off offensive action was forced into a defensive engagement with Tango Primary to keep you safe. During the engagement you and I were transported here.” Quann said.
Making Fluttershy what this Tango Primary was, but she kept listening.

“Your orders are to help Fluttershy with anything she needs to prepare for the Summer Sun Celebration in one week. But when you get some free time today get to a secure location and radio me or report to Rarity’s, that is where I will be. I will upload the coordinates to your communicator.
Raptor Two-One Out” Quann Finished his message and hit the stop button, pulled up the goggles, and pulled down the gasmask and looked towards Fluttershy with a smile.

“Anyway, sorry about that, let’s get going shall we” he said, lowering a wing like a ramp for the rabbit to climb onto his back, which it did and he walked to the door and turned his head around.

“Thank you again for everything.” He said before he turned back around and walked out the door.

On his way to Rarities boutique, let’s just say it was rather annoying. Every time he would veer off course Angel would tug his mane, effectively ruining it. Other than that it was just plain awkward on his way. The residents of Ponyville would stop whatever they were doing and ether stair at him, start muttering things to each other, mainly having to do with his strange outfit, or him being an alicorn which led to some of them thinking he was a prince for some reason, which led to some of them bowing to him. Along the way he met a cyan pony with a rainbow mane that crashed into him who after some conversation identified herself as Rainbow Dash.

What really made him think was when he tried to talk to a pink pony with a cotton candy pink mane who the second she saw him she gasped and shot off in a blur of pink. Eventually he made it to a building that resembled a large carousel.

“I guess this is it.” He said to Angel.

Looking to the armor his right shoulder where Angel Bunny was now residing and after receiving a nod from angel Quann/Raptor Knocked on the door. Receiving no response. When he looked back to where Angel was he was surprised to see that he had left.

“Great, I got ditched by a fucking rabbit.” Quann said to himself. He turned around and knocked on the door again.

“Sweetiebelle, would you be a dear and get the door?” He heard after a fuss from the other side.

“Fine Rarity. Coming!” he heard a younger voice say. The door opened to revile a small filly that had a white coat, lilac and pink mane, and jade green eyes that if he was still human would barley come up to his knee but was half of the size of your average mare.

“Coooool.” She said, staring at Quann, who looked down at the little filly with a smile.

“Hey there my names Quann but you can call me Raptor. What is your name?” He said

“My name is Sweetiebelle. Wow your armor is so cool looking. And what are those things on your back?” she asked. That is when he remembered that he still had his SAW and Javelin missile launcher on his back and decided to not tell the little filly what they really were.

“They are my tools. No touching, okay?” He said stepping inside, receiving an nod from her. Rarity stepped around the corner, having just heard her sister’s question and this new-comer’s answer.

“Sweetiebelle who are you talking to. . .” *gasp!*” she snatched him up in a magical blue aura and moved him to a pedestal in front of three mirrors (you know the one she used for twilight) and proceeded to style his mane and tail much to his protest when almost every Blackwatch trooper would have shot her and moved on.

“Sweetiebelle, why don’t you go and play outside.” Rarity said

“Okay, now that she is gone what are those ugly things really?” Rarity asked in a demanding tone.

“They are my weapons.” Quann responded

“don’t worry I don’t plan on using them. To be honest I forgot I had them, sorry.” he said with a sad smile.

‘how the hell did I forget I had these things on my back’ Quann thought.

Cooper groaned as he opened his eyes. The world was a blur. The last thing her remembered was the assault on Tango Primary and him and Quann,

“Quann!” he shouted, sitting up. He looked around, absorbing in the new environment. He rubbed his eyes with his… HOOVES?!?!
He stared at his new appendages.

“I must be dreaming.” he said aloud. He heard footsteps in the next room. He tried to stand on his hind leg but fell flat on his back.

“Oh, you’re awake.” a quiet voice said. He looked at the person that was talking to him. The yellow pony looked down at Cooper, who’s masked face was crimson from embracement. He rolled over and stud on all fours. He started inquisitively at the mare. He could have sworn he recognizes her. He closed his eyes and thought hard. It came to him in a flash. A little girl he had escorted had a plush of her. He put his hand on her check and ran it down the length of her body until he reached her cutie mark.

“Umm, excuse me, can you please stop touching my butt?” Fluttershy asked. Cooper quickly pulled his hand away.

“This, isn’t a dream.” he said aloud, “Oh, well then. I should probably introduce myself. I’m Cooper, but call me Reaper.”

“My name’s Fluttershy.” she said extending, a hoof.

“By the way, have you seen my friend? His name is Quann but he also goes by Raptor.” he said, shaking it.

“Yes I have, he left something for you.” she said, retrieving the device. Cooper listened to the message.

“Thank you for your kindness, Fluttershy. I their anything I can help you with.” Cooper asked as the message finished.

“Actually, I could use somepony’s opinion on how my preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration are going. I-I mean if you have the time.”

“I have all the time in the world.”

After a performance by Fluttershy and her chorus of birds Cooper stomped his hooves on the ground.

“That was amazing! My only complaint is the off key blue jay.” he said, pointing to the bird. A rumble came from his stomach,

“I’m starving, can we go get something to eat?”

“My friend Pinkie Pie works at a bakery in town.” she replied with a nod.

“Huh, Pinkie Pie, that’s a very peculiar name.” Cooper said, trotting alongside the butter yellow mare.

“Well, she is a very peculiar pony.”

One hour later Rarity had finished and she was proud of her work. Quann tail resembled a slightly shorter version of rainbow dashes tail but it was black with one blood red stripe and while she didn’t know it his mane resembled Twilight Sparkles mane except with one stripe instead of two.

“Perfect, now to change you out of that drab and MAY I say ugly armor.” she said as she levitated some other outfits to her, causing the normally kind Blackwatch trooper shoot her a glare that struck her to the bone.

“I’m here to help with the set-up of the Summer Sun Celebration, Miss Rarity. Now, do you need help or not? I am Quann or Raptor two-one and I am not any ponies show-pony!” He said as he began to turn around to leave

"Oh where are my manners, I'm truly sorry I didn't mean to offend you Mister Raptor two-one, but when I see a pony with such a horrible mane I have to do something about it, no matter how much you protested. On a different note though may I ask what is such a regal pony as yourself doing in my humble shop." She stared at the dark lavender alicorn as he began to go wide-eyed at her proclamation.

‘I wonder what an alicorn is doing here, let alone armed and armored?’ she thought.

"Please. I implore you do not leave Mister Raptor two-one, I assure you are in capable hands. So may I ask what you need form me, and I will take the time to aid YOU in any way as possible, For my rudeness." she said

She watched him stop in his place and turn towards her, his eyes gleaming as he stared at her whole heartedly, making her realize that maybe she should have worded things better.

"You'll do anything right Rarity, well I have something in mind." He said with a devious smirk.

‘Oh, this is going to be fun.’ He thought

She gulped as he stared into her eyes hungrily, she knew what he was going to ask and silently cried to herself, he was an alicorn while she was some slightly famed seamstress every pony would turn a blind-eye to his actions no matter what.

"Can you treat me to some food, I’m starving, and call me Quann or Raptor, no one calls me Raptor two-one” He said with a smile.

She nodded dumbly at the sincerity of his comment, before laughing to herself for fretting over nothing and letting her mind wander into much darker territory.

"Sure, let me get some bits. I'm sure Pinkie Pie and the Cake family would love to have such a resounding figure in their shop.” she said, Quann nodded

Imagining various foods, before being dragged with the same blue aura, before jumping up and trotting alongside Rarity.

"Come along Raptor, no time for dilly-dallying, I'm quite parched as well, and I have only a few minutes to spare even with such company as yourself." She said

Trotting alongside Quann she sparked up a brief conversation with him about his past and everything about him in general. The conversation ended abruptly as Rarity looked on as he licking his lips.

"So this is the place where we get something to eat, huh." Rarity couldn't help but stifle a giggle, as Quann’s eyes darted back and forth before walking up to the store and going inside.
The disappointment written across her face usually newcomers tried to at least bite the confectionary serving house. It was clear that he was somewhat smarter than the occasional visitor.

"Come on in Rarity all of it looks awesome." Quann said stepping inside.
But then he saw someone he wisent thinking he would see until the next day sitting and talking with Fluttershy and the pink pony from before with bandages around his abdomen holding his wings down. And still in full armor.

“Oh man, Pinkie that is funny!” Cooper practically yelled, gaining the attention of every pony in the shop.

“Look, it’s the alicorn.” A random pony said. making everyone turn to the entrance gaining gasps from the ponies in the room most of whom were frozen by the glare the armored alicorn was giving but quickly discovered it wasn’t meant for them and calmed down but kept watching.

“Reaper One-One!” Quann shouted.

And every pony turned to the other heavily armored pony who was scrambling to his hooves and over to the alicorn muttering curses the whole way.

“shit, shit, shit, shit.” Cooper said as he galloped to get to Quann, who was standing there with a very UN amused look on his face

“LIEUTENANT, SIR!” Cooper said as he got to the alicorn, saluting with his right hoof. Shocking the other occupants ‘why was a Prince only a lieutenant?’

“At ease, Cooper. I am glad to see that you are feeling better.” Quann said placing a hoof on Cooper’s shoulder. Both finally seeing just how tall Quann was. Cooper guessing that he was as tall as the only stallion he had met so far Big Macintosh but not as bulky.

“Reaper have something important to tell you.” Quann said, gaining everyponies attention

“What is it, Raptor?” Cooper asked, causing Quann to turn to everybody else in the room.

“What you are about to hear is top secret, that means telling no one.” Quann said to them making, them nod, some in fear and others in curiosity.

“Okay then.” he said turning back to Cooper, pulling down his mask and up his goggles to better Gage his reaction revealing his…

“During our engage meant with the Tango Primary I have discovered that the two of us are now infected with the Mercer or Blacklight virus.” Quann said, making most of the ponies step back.

“I knew, I felt different but I couldn’t place it. Shouldn’t we be dead?” Cooper ask.

“But don’t worry, apparently the amount of the virus was have not only the last in the entire world, but it was so diluted it didn’t kill us. We are no better than that asshole Heller. But the good news is that we can’t infect anypony no matter what we do.” Quann said with a sad smile towards the end.

“So what you are saying is. . .” Cooper started.

“Is that the virus starts with us and will end with us.” Quann paused, letting him take it in and so the ponies understood they were not a threat.

“But Now we have to make a decision to make.” Quann said moving his and Cooper’s mask and hoods into position in their respective places.

“What is that?” Cooper asked

“The Decision everyone who joined Blackwatch made. The choice to Destroy…” he said, Making the ponies a bit nervous by the ominous blue lights and goggles that then changed red on Quann and Orange on Cooper.

“…Or the choice to protect.” Quann said making the ponies wonder what they would pick but he wasn’t done.

“Cooper. Tell me where do you think you would be if it wasn’t for The Watch?” Quann asked

‘What kind of question is that?’ the ponies thought

“Either dead or in prison.” Cooper said in a joking but also truthful tone, the ponies were shocked to hear this, Cooper was so kind.

“Same here, now let’s change that and Protect this town. We couldn’t Protect the NYZ, so let’s protect Ponyville.” Quann finished. He pulled down his mask and up the goggles on both him and Cooper and both smiled making the ponies glad they had these two to protect the town.

i'm on break from college so i might wright more parts.

New pony in town

Five days had passed in Ponyville and Quann had been given a room in Rarity’s boutique, and Cooper was staying with Fluttershy. But in Quann and Coopers opinions that week couldn't have gone by any quicker. In the five days the two have come to terms with being Evolved.

Quann Visited Fluttershy quite often to check on Cooper when his sergeant wasn’t following him around, leading to some of the ponies thinking Cooper was some kind of guard leading to Cooper pouting behind his mask and goggles. But thankfully Fluttershy was nice enough to treat the few wounds that still lingered on Cooper, despite his first protests the Blackwatch sergeant finally gave in to the gentle pegasus, but still both promised to help her out not taking no for an answer. The pony never raised her voice even as the concern etched through it. They were grateful for the mare's kindness as she would stop whatever she was doing to help them if they were doing something wrong.

Their duties usually consisted of helping the animals out from feeding or giving them some attention as hers was preoccupied with the off-key songbird. Angel helped by rounding up the needed animals before taking off, something the armored pegasus and alicorn had come to expect. They let the animals eat in peace and instead focusing on brightening their day until the caretaker arrived. Quann entertained the aquatic life swimming with them as they nipped at his hooves, no doubt the most relaxing part of his day by far. It lasted for maybe an hour as Fluttershy came back accompanied with various birds all looking tuckered out as Angel walked up to him tapping his foot on the ground, expecting something from the alicorn. Which he happily replied with a quick splash drenching the poor bunny as Quann calmly walked out. He was careful to avoid Angel after that little trick, who knew bunnies could hold a grudge.

And in Coopers case Pinkie pie was the other mare he would hang out with whether he wanted to or not. Her confetti cannon was a great deal breaker in fact he still wanted to see how the damn thing worked. Him meeting up with Pinkie Pie was a great way to meet the locals though, she'd always drag him along delivering Sugercube Corner orders which led to impromptu meetings.

These meeting though either ended with a generous tip or the door being slammed into his face, yep he screamed popularity. Though the time was well spent none the less, so he chatted with the pink pony and even getting a few treats along the way, it really explained the constant ball of energy that Pinkie Pie was, and she was the only one that could help with his taste for sweets.

But in Quann’s case the rest of his time was spent with Sweetiebelle and Rarity. He was very grateful to help them in any way possible for the hospitality, which usually involved watching Sweetiebelle and her friend Scootaloo. The two fillies took to him as vanilla took to cake, both looked up to him like the brother they never had and he was more than grateful to spend time with both fillies. Though it all stopped when Rarity asked for Quann’s help with something, usually it was him posing for her in some outfit, which was a feet because she had discovered what could get him to do what she said and it was food as was the case earlier today causing him to Draw his armor into his body except for his shoulder armor causing the Blood Red stripe in his mane and tail to pulse red ever so slightly (like Heller’s back, or the symbol on the back of Mercers Coat), or helping her with dinner.

Today though was him watching the fillies prance around him as he laughed while trying to catch one.

"Come on girls slow down, I'm not as good as your sister with magic, you know that." Quann whined.

Both of them rang out in giggles, as they galloped past him, running outside the boutique, he sighed to himself before heading to the door.

"Rarity I'm going out to play with the girls, call me if you need me." Quann called

She didn't respond as she was too busy in finalizing the decorations for Celestia's arrival, and his mind was too preoccupied with the purple unicorn and what seemed to be a lizard hopping out off a chariot drawn by two pegasi in gold armor.

"I don't think that they would be here that soon." Quann said.

The fillies watched with Quann, both in awe of the method of transportation.

"No Raptor, the princess is an alicorn like you. She must be here for something else." Sweetiebelle said as she nodded to herself, as Scootaloo started to nod in agreement almost in sync with her filly counterpart.

"Well if she's going to check on everything, then shouldn't someone help her?" All three of them nodded in agreement before a certain pair of fillies stared at Quann.

"By someone you mean me, don't you?" Quann asked. The two nodded again as he sighed and walked towards the two visitors.

Twilight Sparkle was having a terrible day, first it started off at the Canterlot as she uncovered the mare in the moon who would come back on the longest day of the 1,000th year which was tomorrow. She even informed her mentor, Princess Celestia, about the matter and all she got in return was a letter. It stated she believed her, but she needed to stop spending time with dusty old book and make some friends. The alicorn matter was stressed in the letter even stating to meet him was another request from herself that went with supervising the preparations of the celebration along with the friend making, but she still saw little point in that endeavor along with handling the ‘fake’ alicorn matter. So here she was in Ponyville, having the daylights scared out of her by some pink pony.

"Now Spike, let’s go over the check list." She said as she looked at the purple baby dragon, as he combed over everything on the list.

"First we need to ask a pony about seeing some pony named Raptor two-one, then head to Sweet Apple Acres and check on the catering." he said dismissingly

‘seriously, Raptor two-one.’

The lavender mare's eyes staring at the Dark lavender "Unicorn" coming towards the then, deciding to deal with this alicorn business from the get go.

"Hey mister, have you seen an alicorn around here? No, well thanks anyway, come on Spike were wasting time." The purple unicorn yelled as she started walking away, not even giving the Black red maned "Unicorn" a chance to speak.

‘what the fuck?’ Quann Thought as the purple mare started walking away, his face turning to one concentration before his horn glowed with a crimson red aura as it slowly grasped Twilight's tail.

The startled mare bucked backwards trying to free herself from the aura's grip, being dragged up into the air.

"Miss, you didn't even let me answer." Quann said as the scowl seemed to grow on Twilight's face as his magic lifted her higher into the air, meeting face to upside-down face.

"Well, since you’re so insistent have you seen this Raptor Two-One?" she asked.

She smiled as the name rolled off her tongue with dripping sarcasm, before a frown began to settle in as she took in his appearance, his wings beating at a slow but constant pace, teasing the poor mare.

"You're the alicorn?" He nodded as she felt herself being lifted and lowered with each little movement from his head, her face turning into one of disbelief.

“The name is Quann, but call me Raptor”

Normally Quann wouldn't flaunt him being Equestrian royalty in all but name, this time was different though. He felt compelled to prove his existence to the purple mare even if he didn't know her personally, like a social tic he had and what really just pissed in his oats was anyone denying somepony Else's existence.

"Now, since you know my name miss unicorn could you tell me yours?" He set her down upright as she gawked at his presence folding both wings back as the lizard's emerald eyes studied him.

"Hey I'm not here to cause any trouble, and I hope you both aren't either." He said causing both nodded dumbly at him as he eyed the baby lizard thing, it looked real suspicious. I mean it walked on its hind legs, but so did he and Cooper.

"I see, I didn't expect there to be an actual alicorn here, but still this doesn't change my duties. My name is Twilight Sparkle and this is my assistant Spike. He is a baby dragon, so stop staring at him." She said, her face beamed as he tried to compose himself acting like she didn't see a thing.

"So your here for the Summer Sun Celebration then?"

He nodded as she started her inspection of Dark lavender alicorn, and with a quick shake of her head she came to the conclusion that he was truly an alicorn. She needed to be sure it wasn't the first time that a pony attempted to be one, in fact Canterlot got the crazies about every second Sunday of each month. While she thought little of the annoying posers, Celestia would get a quick chuckle before sorting the fake alicorn ordeal out. She felt slightly in awe as she stood before him but it was nothing compared to her mentor Princess Celestia. Then a sudden idea hit her, maybe he could help with Nightmare moon, after all he was an alicorn and Nightmare moon was an alicorn so who better to beat the nefarious mare then another alicorn.

"Raptor, would you mind helping me with something?" she asked.

He slowly nodded as he backed away from Twilight, the gleam in her eye only spelled trouble, similar to the first time he had met Rarity.

"Well, come on then, I need your help first on with something else Princess Celestia tasked me with." Twilight insisted.

About two or three hours and one long life story later in the library.

Twilight had slammed the door shut the only source of light being the ominous slow glowing red pulse that the stripe on Quann’s mane and tail gave off. Quann braced himself for what was to come, it could only be one thing a, Pinkie Pie Party. He prepared himself as Twilight turned on the lights and lo' and behold he was right, so being like any pony including Cooper without his armor on that wanted to relax at a Pinkie Party, he just faded into the background, mingling with other ponies.

"Surprise, were you surprised? huh, huh, huh I mean if you were surprised then my surprise party would be a success." The unicorn had actually replied.

Quann started his mental clock to see how long it would be before pinkie pie stopped talking to catch her breath, it was more of a game to him and no matter how kind he was he just wanted to see if she would pass out from lack of oxygen. and as long as he was stuck with.

"Boring! Now I was the first one that saw you when you got here remember? You were all like "hello" and I was all like "ooha" remember? I never saw you before so that must mean you’re new, because I know everypony and I mean EVERYpony in Ponyville. And if your new you hadn't met anyone yet, and if you hadn't met anyone yet then you must not have any friends, and if you don't have any friends that must make you a lonely pony, which makes me so sad, so I had an idea so that's why I went "ooha" so I decided to have a great big super-ginormous welcome party that I invited everyone in Ponyville. See and now you have lots and lots of friends." Pinkie said

Quann’s mental clock timed out at ten seconds before she stopped for a breath give or take a few seconds. Sadly due to Twilight's lack of attentiveness she had poured herself a self a nice drink of Pinkie pie's extra hot sauce, and with one sip was all she wrote for the poor mare as she took to the nearest water source. Making Cooper and himself fall on the ground laughing

Twilight had it, first of all she just wanted to be left alone and figure a way to stop Nightmare moon and learn about the elements of harmony, but no someponies wanted to try and be her friend, she didn't have time for friends the world was going to be gone after tomorrow or all the sunlight would disappear in the very least. So here she was holed up in her room at 1:20 in the morning with a party still going on and she was willing to bet it was all thanks to that pink pony.

"All the ponies in this town are CRAZY!" She vented on the lifeless pillow, stomping on it to relieve much-needed stress.

"TAP,TAP,TAP" And now she was hearing things, oh great, what was going to happen next? Nightmare moon was actually princess Celestia's sister, ha fat chance. So the Unicorn did the only thing she could do at the moment and that was watch the moon, well Quann's flank blocking the moon to be exact, and with that image burned into her head she let the alicorn into her room via window.

"Why were you flying outside my window, Quann?" She stared on at the blue eyes of his before she planted her hoof in his mouth.

"Never mind that, I need you to listen to me Quann, your my only hope since no one else will believe me." So she began to tell the Quann everything she knew and when she finished, all that she could see in his eyes was fierce determination.

"That's it Quann, it’s unless we find the elements of Harmony by sundown tomorrow we are all doomed." She panicked as the reality of the situation came crashing down on her, it would be almost impossible to find the elements of harmony before sundown tomorrow.

"Twilight, I'll do something only a few ponies get from me, I promise when Nightmare Moon comes I'll beat her so bad I'll knock her into the next galaxy." The mare smiled at his declaration but was shocked when he was covered in what looked like a cloud of red and black and he was wearing his Blackwatch armor with mask and goggles in place. The lights activating and turned blue. Maybe he'd find a way to beat Nightmare moon, but it didn't matter right now because he trusted her so she would do the same in him and she watched him walk out the door.

“I can’t pull Cooper into this fight, he is still injured. But non the less it is a good thing he unlocked the blades.” Quann said behind his mask and walked out of the library.

Nightmare part 1

Quann's gaze turned towards the moon, he steadied his resolve as he swore to Twilight to defeat Nightmare Moon. The clearing bristled with a strong cold gust as he stood before the everfree forest it was much scarier looking at it the mythical creature filled forest at night.

"So why am I out here, lets see I was talking to Twilight and then I got bored listening to her talk about the Canterlot library so I looked at the mare shape on the moon, then everything went fuzzy after the picture of the mare disappeared." Quann said

Yeah that was the gist of everything that happened so why was he here.

"Thou do jest, I see an Alicorn in my presence, but not my dearest sister which I sought after for so long. Who stands before I speak quickly, or suffer my wrath?"

His eyes looked around him trying to find the source of the voice as a violet mist settled in the clearing.

"So you refuse my royal acquisition the audacity of your actions shall not go unpunished."

Quann stared in awe from behind his goggles and mask as the violet mist began to rise into the shape of a wave, he braced himself as the mist washed over him like a rippling wave.

"Beset your gaze on the mightiest alicorn in all of equestria, tis I Nightmare moon."

The mist dissipated from around Quann and their stood the owner of the mist's voice. The very dark cerulean coat glowed, against her shimmering dark violet mane and tail as it seemed the stars were infused within it themselves. Her horn glew with an ominous cobalt blue aura, which set off her monstrously large wings, stretched themselves. Quanns Goggles met the cat-like blue eyes both waiting for anything to happen and then the Moon Mare decided her next course of action. Which Quann took full advantage of as first he pulled down his gas mask and reached behind him and quickly pulled out his Javelin and aimed it at the mare.

‘I’ll give you a nightmare. . . . Bitch’ Quann thought as squeezed the trigger

"Are you amazed at such rega..." She never had the chance to finish as Quann fired the missile which slammed into the the mare Resulting in a large explosion, never letting off the downed mare's presence he shot another missile at her watching the downed mare's form slide backwards landing back on her hooves.

“Oh no I aint done yet Bitch!” Quann shouted as he fired tired two more rockets

‘What THE FUCK!! SHE IS TOUGHER THAN ONE OF THOSE FUCKING BRAWLERS BACK IN THE NYZ!’ Quann screamed in his mind as he put the Javelin back on his back.

"You dare challenge me, and with such a crude weapon, even as you are beneath my station. So I shall show weak you truly are." Her horn glowed as Quann prepared to charge at the alicorn, before he froze mid-hoof, surrounded in Nightmare Moon's magical aura.

"HA you actually thought you stood a chance, how fortuitous that your barbaric tendencies led to your downfall. I thous require your name to be used as an example for these peasants." She said

The alicorn of the night pulled Quann closer smirking at the foolish actions of her own kind, before he spit across her face with a smirk across spread across his own.

"The alicorn that spit in your face and the stallion that is about to kick your sorry ass all over equestria is me Raptor Two-one." The proud blonde alicorn's grin fell flat as he was thrown magically into the air as he stood high above the trees.

"Thous death will doeth me no justice, instead I shalt revel in this mediocre task goodbye Raptor Two-one may you know your place amongst the peseant of the afterlife." She said

“Fuck you. . . Nightmare”
The violet alicorn's horn glew with a cobalt aura before a deafening explosion erupted from where Quann once was held.

"You have reaped what thine sows, and now on to more grave matters addressing the denizens of my lunar kingdom." She laughed as she flew off ready to make her grand appearance.

Quann felt pain as the explosion sent him flying, his body wracked with pain as he braced himself for impact like Rainbow Dash had taught him, hoping that he didn't die. The impact wasn't as brief as the alicorn would have hoped for, each time he even touched the ground he found himself skipped off of it and sent back into the air, before returning to the ground. A wave of pain shot through his body each time he hit the dirt before finally he stopped and crashed into the ground. He didn't bother moving when he stopped, the only thing he could feel at the moment was the intense pain everywhere, not taking into account that he just rag dolled across the outskirts of ponyville.

Nightmare Moon's magical induced explosion had really Fucked up his body, in fact he pretty sure some of his feathers were gone thanks to it, not that the fact mattered since he was sure both were broken.

"Never again, I'm never going to think of spitting in the face of any pony if this is what's going to happen to me. Come on Quann, I can do this just need to warn Twilight, then get back at Nightmare Bitch." His body tried desperately to push himself upright and messaging cooper as soon he finished he fell to his right bringing the pain he bottled up back in full force and promptly blacking out.

Cooper

Twilight thought's went back and forth on the alicorn issue, Nightmare Moon was due anytime today when the moon was up and it was already 5:45 A.M so that meant by Twilight's calculations six hours and thirty more minutes until the day was up and Nightmare Moon would be sealed in the moon for another thousand years. she could only hope that Celestia would come soon even a little early for the summer sun celebration, her gaze turned towards the clock again only a minute had passed by.

"Twilight you up, its time to watch the sunrise."

She watched her assistant excited knock off the lamp shade waiting for her to join him.

"Come on Twilight stop worrying about an old ponies tale." She hoped to Celestia that Spike was right just this one time, not once looking at the moon as she left her room.

Twilight looked on at the countless pegasi, Unicorns and Earth ponies standing in city hall, waiting for Twilight's cherished mentor to appear and raise the sun And right next to her was Reaper's personal guard of Raptor. Spike riding her back as a horse, before pointing to a familiar pink pony running towards them.

"Isn't this exciting? Are you excited, cause I'm excited, I've never been so excited oh except for the time I saw you walking in the town and I was like "HUUHUU", but really who can top that?"

Twilight was thankful that the music started so soon saving her from trying to keep up with the hyper Pinkie Pie.

‘static’

‘beep’

She looked over to the armor wearing pony who held up his communicator and she got closer to so she could see what it was.

“Reaper one-one, this is Raptor. How copy?” came a voice over the communicator making twilight turn get close enough to hear Raptor because she was worried about him but she couldn’t here anything. That is when she herd Cooper start talking.

“Raptor.” Cooper replied confirming his How copy.

“The Tango Blew Past me. She is now your primary target. And is now Oscar Mike on your Position. Protect the others ‘cough. Cough’ if you see her you are cleared hot. Take that fucker down. Let’s show her what happens when you mess with fucking Blackwatch” Quann said

“Copy that.” Cooper said

‘cough’

‘static’

“Raptor, Raptor Respond. Fuck” Cooper said ignoring twilights pleas. As the spotlight dropped to a single earth pony as she looked proud to be introducing Princess Celestia.

"Fillies and gentlecolts! As mayor of ponyville it is my great pleasure to announce the beginning of the summer sun celebration." She said

A loud cheer erupted from the ponies of ponyville each and everypony excited about the festival to come.

"In just a few moments, our town will witness the magic of the sunrise, and celebrate this the longest day of the year. Now it is my great honor to introduce to you the ruler of our land, the pony who gives us the sun and the moon each and every day, the good, the wise, the bearer of harmony to all of equestria Princess Celestia." She continued

Twilight's mind was racing at this point, she managed snick one glance at the moon already and the mare head was gone, this was bad, really bad. She wasn't surprised when Celestia wasn't there as Rarity pulled the curtains, she was probably battling Nightmare Moon with Quann as Twilight stood here doing nothing.

"Remain calm everypony their must be a reasonable explanation."

Pinkie Pie hopped up and down as she spewed out guess's why Celestia wasn't there.

"She's gone." Rarity said to the confused pony crowd and Twilight felt herself shrink as Pinkie Pie took a deep gasp at the violet mist that started covering the balcony where Celestia was to reside.

"Oh no Nightmare moon." The weight off her back disappeared as Spike fainted and fell to the ground.

"Oh my little avid subjects its been so long since I seen your precious little sun-loving faces."

Everypony except cooper cowered before NightMare Moon's gaze, Twilight was genuinely surprised as Rainbow Dash was the first to speak out against Nightmare Moon.

"What did you do with our princess?" Rainbow Dash Yelled

She watched as the Cyan mare tried attacking the alicorn as Applejack held her at bay and wrangled the pegasus in from meeting her untimely end at one of the alicorn's magical attacks.

"Muhehehehahaha! Am I not royal enough for you, don't any of you ponies know who I am?"

This time Pinkie Pie was the next to rise at her inquiry as Applejack swiftly stuffed a cupcake in the pony's mouth.

"Does my crown no longer count, now that I've been imprisoned for a thousand years? Did you not recall the legend did no pony see the signs of my return?" She had enough of the Royal Alicorn picking on the citizens of ponyville.

"I did, I know who you are, you are the Mare in the Moon, Nightmare Moon." Twilight ignored the gasps of the ponies behind her, instead glaring at Evil mare.

"Well, Well, Well. Somepony remembers me, then you must know why I'm here?" The unicorns voice started to falter as the alicorn laughed at her pitiful attempt.

"Remember this day little ponies as it were your last, from this moment forth the night shall last forever." The violet mist swirled around her as Lightning struck randomly inside the building.

"No its not, when Raptor gets here he's going to kick your flank in ten seconds flat." The crowd gasped as one little filly walked out from under the curtains.

"Raptor's the strongest and Kindest pony I know, so no way some Moonmare Night is going to beat him."

Twilight smiled as another filly stood next to her and stared at the alicorn with only the slightest fear in both of their eyes.

"Yeah Sweetie Belle's right no one can beat Raptor." Ponyville collectively nodded at the mention of the blonde alicorn, did he inspire that much in the people of this town for two fillies to foolishly challenge an alicorn, as she approached them both one hoof at a time.

"Did this Raptor have a mane and tail that of a Black color with a Red pulsing stripe on both while his coat was a darker shade of your friend (motioning to twilight)?" Nightmare Moon asked

Twilight and the rest of ponyville could only watch as the pegasus filly nod slowly.

"Good, now young Sweetie belle this Raptor he was an alicorn was he not?" The unicorn filly nodded staring at who seemed to be Rarity in concern, as the seamstress mare eyes glared daggers at the back of Nightmare Moon.

"I see well I recall facing an alicorn of that definite description and name." The alicorn let the residents of ponyville talk to themselves as she just listened to their small chatter.

"Then what happened to Raptormiss Moonlight Mare?" A third filly stood next to the two fillies as she looked on at Nightmare moon, Twilight was personally thinking that the fillies were intentionally teasing the proverbial dragon at this point.

"The name is Nightmare Moon, you intolerable foals, and do you really want to know what happened to your precious Raptor?" The fillies all nodded in fear this time as she stood defiantly over them all.

"It's simple really I blew the insufferable idiot up like I'll do to anyone that stands in my way, any further questions little foals?"

Twilight's heart sank at Nightmare Moon's proud declaration of Quann's death, and the fillies bawled out in tears as the alicorn laughed at each sob coming form the poor fillies, before going back to the balcony she made her grand entrance on. And Cooper spun around taking his M4 into his wings and Javelin into his Hooves as the Blue of his lights turned orange and he took aim at Nightmare Moon.

"Somepony arrest her, only she knows where the princess is?"

The mayor proclaimed, and as swiftly as the royal guards rose Nightmare moon swatted them all away as if all they were gnats.

But that is when every pony heard a defining series of cracks and a loud swooshing sound followed by the area where Nightmare was exploding.

Every pony held their ears turning to the source of the noise. And Gasped when they saw cooper pointing some king of weapons and firing them at Nightmare Moon in his wings he held something like a small tube with another smaller tube on top with handles on the bottom (his M4) and standing on his hind hooves and in his fore hooves he held a large tube at least as large as a mare if not as big as Pinkies Cannon.

“Hay Bitch let’s see if you can handle me as easy as throws other guards. For hurting my Best friend now, I’m about to show You what happens To anyone who messes with Blackwatch” Cooper said firing another Missile salvo impacting with Nightmare Moon and taking aim and firing his M4 at her scoring more hits after all he was always a better shot than Quann. Firing his last Missile he tossed the Javalin away and got back on all fours. And advanced on Nightmare shocking the ponies that this Pegasus was openly challenging an alicorn and making them wonder if cooper was this strong how strong was Quann.

‘damn that was my last mag’ Cooper thought as he threw away his M4.

Coopers blades

He stood in front of the quickly dispersing dust cloud at the ready for an attack. And an attack came in the form of a Cobalt burst of magic that slammed into him pushing him back halfway from his previous position and the other ponies looking back.

“Twilight get the elements” cooper said the other ponies watched him as he charged back at the cloud only to have another attack hit him but he was scent airborne from the attack and doing a backflip his wings were covered in a mass of Black and orange tendrils when and when he landed it made the ground under him crack creating a small dust cloud covering him from sight.

But when the dust cleared they saw cooper standing lake normal but instead of wings he had two long blades attached to the parts of his wing that remained that were also covered with the tendrils.

Cooper Charged the dust cloud but now when the burst came now clearing out the smoke he blocked it with a cross of his blades in an X formation. Pushing him back a bit but he jumped and tried to stab her with his blades which resulted in her moving out of the way and him stamping his blades into the ground and getting stuck. But when He got them unstuck she was gone. Finally pulling his blades out of the grown he turned his wings back to normal and huffed.

"Well look at the time I got to tuck Spike since he's a baby and all so bye everypony." Twilight said

Twilight lifted the baby dragon in to the air and took off galloping back to her temporary library home. she tucked spike in as fast as she could after she arrived, wasting no time in searching for a book on the Elements of Harmony.

"Elements, elements where is that boook? I can't defeat Nightmare Moon without the Elements of Harmony?" Her horn glowed with an ethereal glow as she sorted through books left and right trying to find some sort of clue.

"And just what are the Elements of Harmony? And how did you know about Nightmare Moon? Are you a spy?" The Rainbow maned Pegasus came crashing into the library her eyes teary as she glared Twilight down, making random accusations against the studious mare as Cooper slipped in.

"Simmer down sally. She ain't no spy, but she sure knows what's going on, don'tcha Twilight?" Twilight stared at the earth pony that barged right in along with a few other ponies, all staring her down.

"I read all about the prediction of Nightmare Moon,s ome mysterious objects called the Elements of Harmony are the only thing that can stop her, but I don't know what they are, where to find them. I don't even know what they do." Twilight broke her gaze away from the group of watchful eyes to stare at the moon.

"The Elements of Harmony: A reference guide." Twilight's eyes turned toward the Pink mare before bumping her out of the way.

"Where did you find it?" The pink mare bounced around telling the unicorn it was under E in a sing song voice.

"Thank you Pinkie Pie, Now their are six Elements of Harmony, but only five are known. Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Honesty, and Loyalty, the sixth is a complete mystery. It is said that the last location of the five elements are in the ancient castle of the pony sisters. It is now located in what is known as the Everfree forest." Twilight said

Twilight along with he rest of the other ponies except cooper felt scared as she read the everfree forest aloud, as one violet cloud of mist went off into the night sky towards the everfree forest itself missing the body of Quann/Raptor.

"Now to defeat that rogue and make her tell us where she is hiding Raptor." Four of the six mares nodded in agreement at Rarity's proclomation, while Twilight stared on in disbelief.

"Didn't you hear Nightmare Moon tell everypony she blew him up." She watched the mares glare at her and in coopers case his lights clash orange before Rarity stepped forward.

"I don't know how things are done in Canterlot dear Twilight Sparkle, but I am not one to believe what some charlaton says about quann unless he has some proof of the action he is very much alive and I will bet my boutique on that claim."

She ignored the collective gasps from the ponies around her, instead focusing on Twilight just begging for her to make some sort of statement.

"Well then come on everypony we all need to be heading towards the Everfree forest now don't we?" Rarity smiled briefly before heading out the door insuring that nopony saw the look of concern on her face.

Later

Twilight found herself standing before the everfree forest alogn with five other mares and one evolved blackwatch, the frightful loooking forest wasn't their looks of concern at the moment, all seven mares and stallion attention was on one sole alicorn before them.

"See I told ya Twilight nothing can kill that thick headed Alicorn." Rarity smiled at the berthing form of Quann, but a wave concern washed over her as she inspected his fallen form.

"What do you suppose happened to him Rarity?" Everypony knew what happened and Twilight was sure of that fact.

"Well come on then Twilight lead the way now I'll be right behind you all very shortly." The others sputtered as she lifted the alicorn with her magic taking a few steps keeping pace with the ponies ignoring the protests of one pony in particular.

"Put him down Rarity, you might injure him more." Twilights protest rang true as she glared at Rarity.

"Twilight I'm not going to leave Raptor behind while each of us move forward, it's not fair or safe." Twilight was sure that it was more for the sake of herself then Raptor's own safety.

"Rarity please we can't carry him through Everfree forest it's not safe." Twilight pleaded to the poor mare before she watched Rarity set Raptor down gently.

"Twilight please let me bring him along anything that happens to him, I'll take personal responsibility for his safety so please Twilight let me bring Raptor along?" Twilight stopped in her tracks she didn't have the heart to tell her no after the heart felt plea, and it seemed like no else minded that she brought Quann/Raptor.

“Ill stay back and help carry him.” Cooper said receiving agreements from the mares

"Fine but you all don't need to come with me, I'm perfectly capable of handling this all by myself." Twilight said
This time it was the five mares to take a step forward.

"Now sugarcube were your friends and we'll stand by your okay, now lets a get going, so we can take Raptor back to the hospital." The lavender unicorn smiled as they trotted alongside her into the everfree forest, all intending on finding the Elements of Harmony and to defeat Nigthmare moon.

As Rarity and Cooper were caring Quann/Raptor Cooper tuned his head to Quann.

“Hang in there man they might need us in the fight before tonight is up.”

Author's Note

Sorry for the Waite for the up date. But i have the next few chapters done and they all have to be edited thanks for staying and reading.

I hope the chapter was good enough.

Nightmare part 2 revenge

The first thing Quann did as he regained consciousness was scream, and to any of the other six mares it sounded quite feminine, making cooper laugh

“HAaha…Having trouble there limp dick” Cooper said

"Friendship be damned I am going to fuck. . . wait why aren’t I dead” Quann said

He put that thought on the back burner for now, as five of the six mares gathered around him waiting for him to push himself off the ground.

"So I take it Nightmare moon was defeated and were in the everfree forest was to give myself a brief tour of the place." He wished the joke went over well the concerned mares as they crowded around him, his cerulean eyes met one white unicorn stared at him in particular, and the one thing his eyes stared at what was the short stub of a tail.

"I see so I take that your attempt at humor is some way of apologizing to us and the ponies of ponyville, well I'll wait for something sensible to come from you, but until then please aid Twilight with these elements of harmony, so we may leave this dreadful place."

Rarity's voice was full of concern as she glanced at him, her worry faded as righteous anger took its place. Quann was indeed fortunate that Nightmare Moon took priority over his well-being. Or eels Rarity would have probably beat the Evolved into submission herself.

"So are these the elements of harmony, what now Twilight?" The alicorn approached the lavender unicorn as she was deep in thought both concerned over the threat Nightmare moon held over all of equestria.

"Well this is real productive Twilight, do you have any ideas at all?"

He got no answer as his faith in these stone spheres diminished every second that passed by, he was more sure that the sphere were more likely rocks than the real Elements of Harmony. His thoughts stopped as the rest of the mares and Cooper decided to join them on this little party.

"I have one idea Raptor. The book said that when all five elements are gathered in place a spark will cause the sixth element to appear. Everypony stand back I don't know what will happen." Twilight said

The five mares took a few steps while back before eventually turning away to give Twilight the space she needed to do whatever was required. Quann and Cooper stayed there ground for curiosity's sake if she was going to make the elements appear then they were going to see the whole damn show. He watched Twilight's face became one of concentration as her horn began to glow, the soldiers eyes watched as a violet mist started to surround the spheres before becoming a swirling vortex lifting the elements off the ground.

"Twilight hurry we got trouble." Quann said

Quann and cooper watched as the unicorn furrowed her brow in concentration before being thrown into the swirling vortex along with the two evolved, before disappearing from the room.

Twilight's coughing could be heard over the ringing in their ears and the smoke clouding there sight. The alicorn and Pegasus waited for the smoke to disappear as he stood before Nightmare Moon herself.

"Oh my, I didn't expect to see you standing let alone alive Raptor Two-One. Now I see you foalishly wish to oppose me again and you brought your friend and a mare along how charming." Quann didn't do anything as Moon mare let the spheres drop to the ground as she glanced at Twilight stomping her hoof on the ground preparing to charge.

"You're kidding right?" THe Unicorn's horn glowed with a bright light as she began her charge, Quann and Cooper watched the alicorn start charging towards Twilight as well. Quann watched as they collided only to be rammed by Nightmare Moon herself before a crimson red aura stopped her from completely turning towards Twilight.

"Unhand me you foal I'll destroy you where you stand." The griping of the Moon mare stopped as Quann smirked and gave a nod to cooper who came up, reared back and bucked her in the face causing Blood to drip from her mouth.

“I Bet this Hurts Bitch” Cooper said as he Bucked her again.

“Yes it does But this will hurt thow more.” She said as she shot a beam of magical energy at cooper and bucked Quann in the chest making him lose his concentration and drop her, using the opening she threw him into the wall next to his friend.

“Fuck. Cooper catch” Quann called as he Reached behind him and took out his SAW and threw his Javelin to cooper who caught it and took aim at the Mare in the moon.

“do you to fools really think you can beat me” Nightmare said

“TWILIGHT! Go get the others and find out how to use the elements!” quann shouted

‘click, click’

‘target locked’

With celestia on the way to the old castle whatever her thoughts were they were canceled out as she felt the strong bound again.

‘that is the second time I have felt this the first time was a week ago and if it is coming from the direction of the old castle then that means that they are there!’ celestia thought as she speed up.

Back to the fight

“LETS GO BITCH!” Quann shouted fed up with having his Male pride insulted as he started firing his SAW and cooper fired his saw. And conjuring up a shield she blocked the shots of both.

“Cooper, Engagement alpha!” Quann shouted over there radio

“Got it.” Cooper said as the two troopers started to gallop around the dome created by nightmare.

“What are you fools doing you can’t penetrate my shield with those puny weapons. And you.” She said and in an instant she was gone in a flash of light appearing directly in front of Quann/Raptor making him skid to a stop in shock and making his eyes widen slightly in fear.

‘No. . . . I can’t be taken down here. I can’t die like this’ Quann thought taking a step back from the mare.

“What kind of alicorn fights without magic? It’s disgraceful.” She said firing a spell at the young Alicorn.

‘that’s it’ Cooper thought seeing his opening he took aim and fired his javelin at nightmare moon.

“FUCK!” Quann shouted as he jumped to the side jumped to the side as the Missile exploded on impact which the mare but taking some shrapnel from the explosion to the hind left leg causing him to stumble as he got up.

“nice shot you got her” Quann said slightly in pain as he walked over to his friend.

“Thanks man, and I think I can hear your new girlfriend now.” Cooper said with a smirk.

“Shut up, Cooper now . . .” Quann started but then he saw something on the reflection of coopers now Hoof bayonet.

‘no’

With Twilight and the others

“come on girls I don’t know how much longer Raptor, and Reaper can hold her off.” Twilight said as he led the other mares to the Maine chamber where the elements were.

“Twilight darling you are worrying to much I am sure the two of them have it under control.” Rarity said with confidence.

“Rarity’s right Twi by the time we get up there amsure them two’l have her good” Apple Jack said

“I hope they are ok” Fluttershy said

“Oh come on Fluttershy those two’l have her down in ten seconds flat”

“I wonder what that Flapping noise is.” Pinkie Pie said

“COOPER MOVE!” They all herd Quann shout and they all galloped up the stairs to see what was going on now all of them worried.

The fight

“COOPER MOVE!” Quann shouted

Quann had no time to think he just reacted and Pored Biomass into all of his legs and with a transparent red streak moved in the way of Nightmare moon who was aiming to impale Cooper with her horn but instead impacted and stabbed into Quanns chest cavity and went through his heart.

“NOOO” was all you herd as the mare in the moon did something no one expected and on one knew it but one pony.

And that is when the other mares arrived and the sight they saw the Alicorn who was so kind to them in front of his friend with Nightmare Moon in front of him with her horn through his chest and they all started crying at losing their new friend, Rarity was crying the most of the six.

“Raptor!” they all shouted not knowing knowing one pony outside herd them and she decided to make her presence known And with a Golden flash Princess Celestia Appeared in the chamber and was greeted with the sight of the two ponies she had saved a week prior and it appeared one was the alicorn she had heard about while the other one was a red Pegasus by the color of his wings.

“QUANN!” Cooper shouted as he started advanced on his friend But when he was Pushed away with a wing making everypony gasp even Nightmare. Quann looked at Cooper blood filling and falling from his mouth.

“Cooper NO!“

‘what!’ they all shouted looking to Quann who was still barley alive.

“GET AWAY!” Quann shouted pushing Biomass into his wing and power pushing Cooper away witch caused him to slide away to the other mares.

'I guess this is it.Goodby Rarity, Twilight i love you , and Cooper my old friend.' Quann thought

As his chest glowed an ominous purple and a blast of Magical energy ripped through his back leaving a huge exit wound, carved a whole in the wall behind, and the forest behind it and finally she removed her horn from Quann’s chest causing blood to gush out of the wound, his eyes glaze over and more blood to fall form his mouth, and the body to slump to the floor. And by now Rarity was in hysterics from seeing the object of her affection dead.

But Nightmare wasn’t done yet now with her sister here she had a point to make. And with another spell she set the body on fire as she laughed. But know every pony could see that one of her eyes was crying as the body now smoldered with red embers.

“YOU see sister what happens to those who resist me!” she Laughed

But then there was a flash and every pony looked to see that her horn was sparking with purple lightning unknown to them that the amount of Quanns blood now on Nightmare moons Horn was going to have an interesting effect. And with a final Bright spark Nightmare Moon and another alicorn with a Dark sapphire Coat to shoot off in different directions the other alicorn being about Quanns size if albeit more feminine and slide to Celestia’s side.

Evolution

“You”

Everypony looked at Cooper who had his mask and goggles off as his orange and yellow mane fell to above his eyes.

“BITCH” He said as his wings flared out as he stared at Nightmare moon.

“I’m” Everypony had chilled down there spine as a scene of dread filled the air and now putting Celestia on guard ready to battle both if need be. The tips of his feathers and wings started to Pulse orange.

“Going… TO” Now his wings were coverd in Black and orange tendrils and Cooper slipped into a Fighting position, as his Blades appeared instead of wings attached to the muscular structure. And pointed the blades at Nightmare Moon the edge Gleaming in the moon light. Making the six element bearers, Celestia and Luna to gulp.

“KILL YOU” Cooper Shouted as his eyes changed from green to blowing orange and sprinted at Nightmare in a blur of glowing blue followed my an orange transparent streak and punched her in the face sending her into the sky.

‘He just like the one that they were fighting when I saved them’ Celestia thought remembering when she saved Quann and Cooper from James Heller.

“Reaper, what happened to you? Now you are scary” Fluttershy thought out loud Earning sympathetic looks form the others because it was obvious she had a crush on the Pony fighting now.

Stopping herself from hitting the ceiling Nightmare moon scanned for the foolish Pegasus and found him running up the wall to get to her in the area because now without wings he is unable to fly, She fired a spell at him the same one she used to finish off his friend.

“That won’t work” Cooper said

He stopped running up the wall as the spell came his way in front of him, he slammed his blades into the wall in front of him and using his momentum he slid around the blast, as it cut a circular hole in the wall. He Pushed biomass into his legs and pushed off the wall and made slash at Nightmare who turned to purple dust and maneuvered around the strike, but underestimated how fast he was going or how determined he was as he flipped in the air and the second he connected with the wall he pushed back but faster this time was able to make a strike on nightmare in the form of a deep slash across her right flank and came around for another attack.

“INSOLENT FOOL YOU DARE STRIKE ME!” Nightmare Shouted in anger as she stopped Cooper mid Strike and spun him in the air until he was but a solid orange circle and slammed him to the floor creating a spider web effect with the cracks on the floor and making him cough up blood, she wasn’t done there using what momentum was left she slid him on the ground and into the wall blowing a huge hole in the wall and into Quann who’s body slid in front of the hole.

“HOW DOES THAT FEEL FOOL!” She taunted.

Cooper stood back up with the orange glowing parts of him flowing brighter and made a smirk as he narrowed his eyes.

“What is so funny” were the thoughts of everypony present as they saw the smirk on Coopers face.

Cooper burst into a blur of Blue, and black with an Orange trail as he charged Nightmare.

“Here Bitch try this!” Cooper shouted as he neared her position he pumped more Biomass into his legs he Jumped at her but about half way he tucked into a roll with one blade in front while the other was behind him. To Every pony eels he looked like a spinning Red and Black ball with an orange streak following it.

“Razor blade DASH!” Cooper shouted as he was about to slam into Nightmare moon but she dodged and he slammed into the roof but instead of going through the roof he stayed in place still spinning and blades cutting into the celling for a moment, and then after that he exploded off of the roof and back down towards Nightmare moon. She dodged again but received another vicious Slash across her left sholder. But this time landing next to Quanns SAW He picked it up turned he neck to the six element bearers.

“Don’t let Raptors Sacrifice be in vain. Use the elements!” Cooper shouted receiving nods from the mares that dried up there tires and went to the alter to receive there elements.

“ALRIGHT BITCH” Cooper said standing on his hind hooves aiming the SAW at and his blades aimed at nightmare moon.

“LETS ROCK” he ran at her fireing the weapon Which she blocked by raising a Dark purple Dome and blocking the bullets and continued to until his body slammed into the shield.

“HA YOU CAN’T HOPE TO PENETRATE THIS SHIELD FOOL!” She shouted triumphantly.

But that is when he slammed his right blade into the shield and to her surprise it pierced the shield. Dropping the SAW not going un noticed by Nightmare though he slammed his other blade into the Shield Creating more space he shoved both fore hooves into the opening and pushing the hole open he shredded the shield just enough to fit himself in.

“NO! how are you doing this!” Nightmare moon shouted dropping the shield as cooper got back down on all fours he brought his right blade to bare.

“REAPER MOVE!” He herd and hi didn’t need to be told twice and channeled Biomass and lept to the side as a Brilliant rainbow beam shot towards Nightmare Moon which was followed by a blinding light.

“we did it!” Twilight said as the mares celebrated the defeat of nightmare moon but the celebration ended when they remembered the cost of the victory and Cooper fell to all four knees panting.

“HA you think that will work twice the elements of harmony will not work. And you now that we are not in the same body you serve no purpose.” Nightmare Moon Said as is about to charge Luna to kill her.

A loud Rour filled the air of the old castle.

All action in the Building stopped as they looked to the hole in the wall to see a Manticore standing over the body of Quann just now stepping in the blood pool over the body as it picked the body up with its paws and moved the smoldering body in front of its maw.

“QUANN,NO!!” Cooper shouted.

Meeting the family

Canterlot castle

“Ok, Raptor And Reaper, I have go and attend to my royal duties. But I will return later with one of the Guard captains.” Celestia said to Quann and Cooper, receiving a nod from both, before she turned around and walked out of the large room.

“Why are you still wearing that?” Cooper asked, looking over to his friend, who was still dressed like Heller.

“You know... I kind of like it. But I better look my best.” Quann said.

As he finished he was covered from head to fur covered hoof in Black and red tendrils. And when they receded he was back in his Blackwatch uniform, but the Goggles up in front of his horn and his gas mask around his neck and the lights on his armor flickered and ignited into their blue glow. Turning to look at his friend he smiled warmly.

“Ok, so let’s get going.” Quann said, motioning with his head for Cooper to come with him.

“Where are we going lieutenant?” Cooper asked.

“To have a look around. I’m not too big on waiting around here for her to get back. But leave a waypoint for our trackers to follow back here.” Quann said.

“Ok, let’s go.” Cooper said, trotting up to his friend, who was already pushing open the door and walking beside him.

One hour later the duo found themselves at a window looking out over a court yard. But unlike the other courtyards they had seen this one was almost filled with ponies some in golden armor.

“Recruits” Quann stated.

“Their training method is too soft by the looks of it.” Cooper said.

“Well, we can’t compare them to the watch” Quann stated.

“These must be that Royal guard Princess Celestia was talking about.” Cooper said to Quann who nodded, still looking out the window studying what could be his guard until his eyes fell on a signal stallion in different armor and a crest on his chest who appeared to be giving orders to the others.

“Look there.” Quann said to cooper as he pointed with his hoof.

“What is it?” Cooper asked until he saw who Quann was pointing at.

“Interesting. That must be the guard captain.” Cooper said.

“I bet we could train those dropouts to be my guards and they would be better than those golden guards.” Quann said.

“Yeah, the two of us could whip them into ranger shape. By the way have you come up with a name for your guards to distinguish them from the others.” Cooper asked.

“Yeah, Blackwatch, and here they would actually be helping the populous.” Quann said turning to walk away.

“Hay, wait up!” Cooper said as he ran to catch up with him.

Later the two found themselves back in the same room they started in. Now on there right shoulder armor they had symbols of their call signs meaning a Valise raptor for Quann and the grim reaper for cooper.

“it is a good thing we found that room with all that paint in it.” Quann said.

“Yeah, I know, right?” Cooper said.

“So what now?” Cooper continued.

“I guess we could spar” Quann stated.

“Yeah, that sounds like a goo-”

‘BANG!’

“QUANN you ass hole fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-”

“Well, this should be fun.” Quann said as his wings were covered in Black and Red glowing tendrils and were replaced with the Claws; three two foot long blades for the fingers and one for the thumb. The Red patches of the roots where his wings used to be and throughout the claws glowed red as he turned toward the door that he punched Cooper through.

“This will give me a chance to try that thing I got from nightmare. Good thing I absorbed her wings.” Quann said to himself.

After finally getting Shining Armor, Cadance, and Luna together, as well as some candidates for Quann to pick for his guards, Celestia was finally going to introduce them all, even though Luna had unofficially met them during their battle.

“So who are you taking us to meet, auntie?” Cadance asked.

“The newly named prince of Equestria Raptor. And his Guard captain Reaper.” Celestia said

“How did you find this guy anyway, Princess?” Shining armor asked.

“He was actually helping your sister and her new friends deal with Nightmare Moon.”

“Does anypony else hear that?” Shining Armor said as Cadance subconsciously moved behind him.

“-uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!”

They heard and saw a stallion in a gas mask, goggles and strange armor with blue lights on it slam into the wall, creating a dust cloud.

“Oh my gosh, I hope he is ok!” Cadance said as they all went to see who it was even though Celestia and Luna already had a good guess.

The first thing any pony saw in the cloud of dust was the orange glow pulsing off from what they could tell were wingtips, and the blue lights on the armor. The figure jumped out of the cloud, and when the guards present saw the blade on this new pony’s left for hoof they got in front of the princess, but were surprised when she told them to stand down.

“But princess, he could be a threat!” Shining Armor said, he and the guards turning to Celestia.

‘gasp’

“What is it, Cadance?” Shining said

Turning around he saw Cooper’s wings covered in black and orange tendrils, and his two blades appeared as he ran past them. They followed behind the angry trooper.

“Princess, who is this guy we’re following?” Shining asked as they followed Cooper as he tore through the castle in the direction of the throne room.

“That is the new prince’s guard captain, Reaper.” Celestia said calmly, though on the inside she was worried. She wanted to know what had sent Cooper flying into the wall. Her thoughts were cut off when they saw Cooper start speeding up, leaving a transparent orange trail in his wake as they neared the door to the throne room.

Cooper jumped through the hole to the throne room. And the group that was following him came through the door in time to see Cooper about to make a downward slash at Quann, who now had claws instead of wings, and was just standing there, waiting.

‘Well, here goes nothing’ Quann thought, his horn starting to glow as Cooper’s right blade came down

“Take this!” Cooper yelled bringing his blade down, only for his attack to pass through his friend as his entire body turned to Red smoke and reformed behind Cooper. Before his friend could react, Quann back hoofed him, making him slide 10 feet away.

The princesses and the guards arrived to see a Stallion wearing the same strange armor as the Pegasus, but with the goggles pulled up and the mask and hood pulled down, letting them see his mane, which was essentially a copy of Twilight’s, if a bit shorter, and in black, with a blood red stripe. But what let them know this was the new prince was the two claws on his back and the horn of his head.

Everyone there stared in shock at Quann. He had turned to red smoke, stunning the guards, Shining armor, and Cadance because the new Prince had been able to dodge an attack that would most certainly have killed anyone else, by using a spell they had never seen before, and Cooper, Celestia, and Luna because he had used the spell that Nightmare Moon had used to turn to smoke.

“Come on, Cooper.” Quann said with a smirk, though truth be told he was drained. That spell was a bit much, as the strain it put on his body was immense. Making a mental note to only use the move as a last resort until he was better with magic, he and Cooper charged one another and exchanged blows.

“Auntie, you have to stop them.” Cadance pleaded. Seeing the two evolved fighting made her concerned for her new cousin.

“I agree with Cadance, they have to be stopped before they hurt somepony.” Shining Armor added, he and his guards stoically standing between the princesses and the two battling friends.

‘Shink’

Everyone that was paying attention to the conversation was drawn back to the fight by the sound of a blade going through flesh and saw that prince Raptor had a gash across the left side of his stomach.

“What’s the matter Raptor, am I too fast for you? I told you all of that useless muscle is slowing you down.” Cooper said.

He made a smirk as he ran toward, Quann only for him to grab his blades with his claws and deliver a biomass enhanced kick to his friend’s chest, sending him flying into a pillar and causing it to collapse on him.

“OH SHIT! Cooper!” Quann shouted as he and the others that he just resisted were there ran to see if his friend was alright. But halfway there, a large piece of the pillar started to rock.

“Celestia! Raise a shield NOW!” Quann ordered, disregarding the current chain of command. She did so, surrounding her sister and the others in a shield, but left Quann outside of it.

Turning around Quann looked to see Cooper’s blades gone, turned back to wings, and with a chunk of the pillar about the size of a Pickup truck held above his head, earning shocked looks from the crowd and raising many questions, though for different reasons.

‘How the fuck is he holding that?’ in Quann’s case.

‘Just how strong are these two?’ for everypony else.

“Tia, stop this fight, please.” Luna pleaded.

Then, everyone saw Cooper throw the pillar at Quann whose Claws turned back into wings, much to the shock of the guards. Cadance and the others, and making every pony, even Cooper, wonder what he was doing. The latter threw the pillar regardless. Standing on his hind legs, Quann channeled biomass into both of his forehooves, causing black and red tendrils to cover them. He thrust both of his legs to either side of him as the pillar impacted, kicking up a small dust cloud.

“Raptor!” Celestia yelled, dropping the shield that covered her and the others, but when the smoke cleared what they saw shocked everyone there.

What they saw was Quann, crouched over with two massive spike covered shields on either side of him where his forehooves used to be, coming from the elbow of both. The shields were covered in the same black and red tendrils, and they turned back into his fore hooves as he fell back onto all fours. He and Cooper then circled each other, not bothering to form any weapons, and charged each other again. Only to be stopped and held in place by a golden aura.

“That is enough!” They heard, and turned to see Celestia glaring at them.

“Yeah, I guess we did go kind of overboard.” Quann said rubbing the back of his head with a sheepish smile.

“Yeah, I guess our little sparring match was a little much.” Cooper agreed.

“A LITTLE?!”

“Hay, fuck you.” Quann and Cooper said in unison.

They both turned to see a white stallion with a blue mane and blue eyes next to Celestia with some royal guard and another alicorn. But this one was pink with greyish purple eyes, and her mane was magenta, yellow and purple. And she just all-around screamed femininity, even more so than Celestia.

“Celestia, can you please put us down?” Quann asked, and he and cooper were gently lowered to the ground.

“Thank you.” Quann said and turned to his friend.

“Hay man, are you ok?” He asked.

“Yeah, nothing too bad. But what about you? I mean, I clipped you pretty good.” Cooper responded, shocking everypony except Quann at his complete mood change. One minute he was trying to kill his friend and the next he is worried for his health.

But that brought their attention to the wound on Quann’s side, and upon closer inspection they saw that it had been close to being a fatal slash. Luckily, it was not bleeding and did not seem to bother him, but they all backed up when they saw the slash being covered in tendrils. When they were gone, so was his wound, and his clothes were also repaired like nothing ever happened.

“Now I believe some introductions are in order. Everypony, allow me to introduce Prince Raptor and his Friend and Guard Captain, Reaper.” She said warmly.

“Sup.” Quann said, bobbing his head upwards a little.

“Raptor, let me introduce you to Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, my niece.” She said, gesturing to Cadance

“Yeah, sorry. Can’t pronounce that.”

“Please, call me Cadance.” She said with a smile, extending a hoof

“Nice to meet you Cadance. I have a feeling we are going to be quick friends.” Quann said, returning the smile with one of his own, taking her hoof and shaking it, being careful to not cut her with his arm bayonet.

“I think so too. And I must say, it is good to finally have a cousin that isn’t rude.” She replied.

“Oh…” She started pulling Shining armor over.

“And this, is my fiancée.” she said, leaning on him, which made Quann and Cooper smirk.

“Well, I must say you are a lucky stallion. Congratulations.” Quann said

“Shining Armor, Captain of the royal guard. It’s an honor, sir.” He responded, extending a hoof.

“Raptor, United States Blackwatch special operations and Bio-weapon response, and former demolitions expert and lieutenant of US army Rangers 51st platoon. It is a pleasure. I look forward to working with you.” Quann said in a professional manner as he returned the hoof shake and motioned Cooper to introduce himself.

“Sargent Reaper. United States Blackwatch special operations and Bio-weapon response, and former rifleman of US army Rangers 51st platoon. Nice to meet you.” Cooper said, shaking Shining Armor’s hoof.

“Princess Luna. I hope you are recovering well from our battle.” Quann said with worry in his voice as he looked upon the Lunar Diarch.

“Yes Raptor, we have recovered from our battle, thank you for your concern.” She replied.

“Well that is good. Now Celestia, if I may ask what is the reason for them?” Quann asked gesturing to the other royal guard there.

“No offense.” Quann stated.

“None taken.” Shining armor said.

“They are candidates from the royal guard hoof picked by shining armor himself. To be your personal guard and to start your regiment.”

“If that is true then why doesn’t Cadance have a guard regiment?” Quann asked.

“Because she lives in Canterlot, and as such has constant security. But because you will be living in Ponyville, you won’t have the security of the Royal Guard. So three of them are our best. While the other three were drop outs.” She replied.

Quann stepped forward to the 6 guards who were all standing all lined up, gave them a hard stare, and stalked up to one of the ones who dropped out from the guard training.

“Tell me something. why did you drop out of the Guard?” He asked

“Sir, I dropped out because I believed that if one must take a life to save an innocent, they should.” Drop Out said. earning a look of disgust from Shining armor. ‘Now it makes sense, the guard are trained not to kill.’ Quann thought to himself.

“But tell me something; if given the opportunity would you not take that life?” Quann asked.

“Yes sir. Life is something that should be taken only in the most grave of circumstances or to protect the populace.” He said earning a nod from Quann and Cooper.

“Well what about the two of you?” Quann asked the other two drop outs who nodded.

“Sir they were my friends and we left for the same reason.” He said

”I see” Quann said, backing up to to see every pony present.

“Tell me; in a war who do you fight for?” Quann asked.

“SIR you fight for your country, SIR!” The other three guards answered, but the three drop outs didn’t answer. And the others looked at him wondering what he was going to say.

“Wrong! And that is all the answer I need.” Quann said turning back around to face them with a stern yet kind face.

“When you fight, when it is just you and your squad in the combat zone, when the mortars are flying and ponies are dying.” He began.

“You don’t fight for the ponies back home. While they might be important they are not there.” Cooper continued.

“You fight for the pony right next to you. The one in that foxhole, bombed out building, or behind some rubble. The Friend who will always have your back, and the one who, if you die in that combat zone, will raise a cup in your name. That is why you fight, and who you fight for.” they finished together.

His horn glowed a brilliant blood red crimson and he reached into one of his pouches and pulled out three pins and patches; all of them had the his cutie mark on them, but without the double helix, which confused everyone but cooper, held them to the three dropouts, and told them to step forward.

“The three of you have done your families proud.” Quann said as the three of them took their pins and patches.

“Now, repeat after me. And keep in mind this will have to be revised.” Quann said, but that last part was said to everyone, not just the three guards.

“When we hunt, we kill!” Quann started

“When we hunt, we kill!”

“No one is safe!”

“Nothing is sacred!”

“We are Blackwatch!”

“We are the last line of defense!”

“We are the last line of defence!”

“We don’t leave our own to hold the red line, but,”

“It is the last line to ever hold!" Quann finished, holding up a hoof signaling to them he was done.

“It Is the last line to ever hold!”

“Recruits!” Quann yelled, making the three of them stand at attention.

“Welcome to Blackwatch.”

chapter 8

18 weeks, and one visit to a clothing manufacturer later, and the three guards that had been chosen to join Quann’s guard had finished their training.

Quann, who wasn’t wearing his mask or goggles, Cooper, the three guards now in Blackwatch armor, Cadence, and Shining Armor, stood in front of a makeshift firing range; Quann and Cooper with the weapons that they had received after their fight with Nightmare, and the guards with modified Crossbows. Quann and them ware in One of the Castle courtyards ok out a bullet from his pouch and levitated it to Cadence.

“Ok so what you are telling me is that this spell can duplicate anything that isn’t alive?” Quann asked Cadence, whom he had asked about 15 days ago to teach him to teach him magic.

“Yes Raptor, it can.” She replied to her student.

“Cool now can you make a bunch of these please?” He asked, hoofing her a single bullet.

“Sure.” Cadence responded.

The bullet started to glow as she took it in a light blue aura. And the next thing Quann and Cooper knew, they were buried under a mountain of bullets. After several minutes, the two finally managed to scramble out of the pile. They looked to the pile and back to Cadance, and back to the pile, and made a very childish squeal.

“Holy Fuck!” Quann yelled and ran up to Cadence with a smile on his face. The others didn’t even flinch, having gotten used to his and Cooper’s rather foul language.

“That is so cool!” Cooper commented taking some bullets and quickly loading them into his magazines.

“Cousin Cadence, You HAVE to teach me that spell. YOU JUST HAVE TO!” Quann pleaded.

“Ok. Ok I’ll teach it to you later. Gosh Raptor you are like a little colt with a new toy.” Cadence replied to her new cousin.

His prediction 18 weeks ago had proven correct and after the first week the two of them were almost inseparable. Except when it came to matters of importance, like when Quann was training his guard. But Quann and Shining armor did have different ideas when it came to certain things like the training of the guard. And somehow, much to Cadence’s pleasure, they had not run into Blueblood since he met him at the gala.

But, come to think of it, nopony had seen the way Quann trained his guards. Not even her aunts.

“Now, if you'll excuse me.” Quann stated as he speed loaded his SAW and his extra magazines before stepping in front of His guards who snapped to attention.

“Alright Fucktards. Here is what we are going to do…. Cooper, the targets.” Quann started. Cooper nodded and set up five target-pony dummies.

“Ok Each of you will be going up and shooting the targets to work on your aim. Celestia knows you need it.” Quann said.

“Yes sir!” They replied in unison.

“Ok, Callsign Crysoch, you’re up.” Quann said.

A blue unicorn trotted up to the firing line. The only way you could tell he was blue was from the color of his horn that came jutting out from inside his hood.

He levitated his Crossbow in front of him in a brown glow. Now, what made these crossbows different was that they work on a spring and mag system, meaning that the arrows are fed to the action from a magazine and the draw is fixed to a spring, so that when one arrow is fired it will bring the string back and another arrow will be automatically loaded, ready to fire, creating the first semi automatic crossbow.

“Ok,Thirty seconds. Ready? Quann asked, levitating a stopwatch.

“Ready Sir.”

“GO!” Immediately the cloaked pony emptied his entire magazine into the target. Of the ten bolts fired, five hit the dummy in the chest and one hit it in the head.

‘He’s a decent shot, with decent grouping. Not bad.’

“He’s a pretty good shot.” Cooper said to Quann, who nodded.

“Ok that was good. Back to the line. Callsign Shock Jock you're up.” He said

“Yes sir!” A bronze colored earth pony trotted up to the firing line.

“Ready... Go!” Quann shouted

One in the head, two in the chest. and the rest missed.

“HA HA HA! HAY Raptor, looks like you have competition. This guy is terrible.” Cooper laughed, causing Quann to look down and face hoof. And the laughter was loud enough to draw out Celestia, who looked drained. But everypony except Cadence, Quann, and Cooper bowed.

“Let me guess auntie, more stuck up nobles?” Quann asked, seeing his aunt drained.

“You guessed right Raptor. May I ask what is so funny?” She asked with a motherly smile. And then she saw the pile.

“And what are those?” she asked gesturing to the massive mound of munitions.

“Well to answer your first question princess we were having a laugh at Raptor, and Shock Jocks expense. They are terrible shots. And to answer your second question they are the ammunition for mine and Raptor’s weapons.” Cooper said

“Any way! Next to the line. Heart Stop, you’re next, get on the firing line.” Quann said, annoyed at his friend.

“Ready! Fire”

“Yes sir!” A yellow Pegasus mare stepped forward gripping the weapon in her wings she fired all 10 bolts. Eight in the head two in the heart and speed back to the lineup.

“Outstanding! That was amazing marksmanship.” Quann said to the mare in the lineup.

“Thank you. I aim to please.” She responded proudly.

Shock Jock raised his hoof.

“Go ahead,” Quann stated.

“Sir, why don’t the two of you show us what you can do?” The private asked.

“Ok then. Sergeant!” Quann shouted.

“Lieutenant Sir!” Cooper responded with a salute.

“Get on the line.” Quann said as he and his friend stepped up to the line and brought out their weapons. Cadence, Celestia, Shining armor and the others gathered around.

“Ok Reaper, ready?”

“Ready, sir.” Cooper responded.

“You might want to cover your ears.” Quann said with a smirk. Everypony did as asked and placed their hooves over their ears before they looked to the target. Everypony but one.

“Fire!” Quann yelled. Cooper looked down the ACOG scope of his M4, flicked off the safety and squeezed the trigger.

‘Crack’

Cooper burst fired his entire magazine into the target scoring 5 headshots, 5 shots to the heart, 5 to the lungs, 5 body shots, and the other 10 hits in non-fatal areas. Cooper ejected his magazine and loaded a fresh one.

“Fuck. he’s still better than me.” Quann said under his breath.

“I’ve still got it” Cooper said with a triumphant smirk.

“WHAT!” Shining Armor Yelled trying to regain his hearing. The poor unicorn had refused to cover his ears believing that he could take the noise.

“Ok. Well look at you, mister fancy ass.” Quann said to Cooper.

“Well, I guess it is your turn Raptor.” Cadence said, not knowing what to expect from her cousin.

Quann stepped up to the line and stood on his hind legs and loaded the 100 round magazine into the gun, fed the belt into the chamber and pulled back the action.

“Ready.” Quann said aiming down his ACOG scope.

“OK FIRE!” Cooper shouted.

Quann Channeled biomass into his muscles and pulled the trigger. And unlike the other weapons that were a lot smaller and semi-automatic, except for Cooper’s M4A2, everypony present could see Quanns entire upper body recoil from the guns kickback as he started emptying the magazine. Resulting in about thirty shots to the upper body and the rest landing all over the body and ripping the silhouette to shreds.

“Well I think you hit it Raptor.” Cadence said eying the target.

“You suck dude.” Cooper said

“Sir, what are you doing?” Shining armor asked as they all turned and saw Quann reach into one of his pouches and take out a small sphere with a ring on it.

“Yes Raptor what are you doing?” Celestia asked warmly and in response he took the object in a hoof and used his other hoof and ripped off the small ring on it, and the little lever on it flew off as his grip loosened making an audible clicking sound. Quann looked at them with a smirk.

“This. FRAG out!” Quann shouted as he threw the Grenade at the target and it landed under the target and did nothing.

‘BOOM’ the target was blown to bits

“‘ that for aim.” Quann said getting back on all fours and slinging his SAW over his shoulder.

“Bitch.” He added as he shoulder-checked Cooper.

Quann turned around to see Celestia giving him a very stern look.

“What?” he asked sarcastically with a smile

“‘Sigh’ just don’t do it again without telling us.” She said

Just then a Guard came around a corner,gaining everypony’s attention,and saluted.

“Yes. What is it?” Celestia asked warmly. In response the Guard turned to Quann and shot him a salute, which Quann instinctively returned.

“Sir, your new recruits have arrived. And they have taken the creed. Sir.” The guard responded.

“Ok thank you. Bring them here.” Quann said.

The guard turned and trotted back to the entrance, bringing in two earth ponies, two unicorns, one Pegasus, and one Zebra. The six of them lined up in two lines of three, and Quann stepped forward and glared at the Zebra. The two princesses and the others stepped back to see what would happen.

“You’re about to see how WE train OUR Troops.” Cooper said to Shining Armor.

“What is your name, private!?” Quann yelled in the zebra’s face.

“SIR. Moton, SIR!” The brown and tan striped Zebra yelled back with an African accent.

“TELL ME, PRIVATE what are you doing in this country! And why did you join Blackwatch?” Quann yelled.

“SIR, I wanted to earn citizenship in this country, and I want to be a doctor SIR!” He answered.

“Well that is good to here. Welcome to the Watch Private DOC!” Quann responded.

“SIR. THANK YOU SIR!” Doc replied.

Quann stepped up to a green earth pony next to Doc.

Celestia turned to Cooper and Quanns other guards with a face bearing confusion, and a little worry.

“Does he always yell at all of the recruits?” She asked.

“Yes, this is totally different from the Raptor we know.” Cadence said.

“This would never happen in the regular royal guard. Or the lunar guard.” Shining armor said as they watched Quann punch one of the recruits.

“Relax. It’s how he weeds out the ones who don’t really want to be here.” Cooper said calmly.

“I guess that makes sense. But I still don’t like it.” Cadence said

“He is just doing the same thing our old drill sergeant did where we are from.” Cooper said. But then they heard one of the recruits make a smart remark. And if they could hear it, there is no doubt that Quann heard it.

“Who said that?” Quann asked. Nopony answered.

“WHO THE FUCK SAID THAT!?” Quann asked again in front of the line still not getting an answer.

“Nopony huh!?” Quann asked. Nopony answered again.

“Princess FUCKING Celestia said it!?” Quann said, turning towards her..

“Auntie, did you say anything?” Quann asked his aunt.

“No Raptor, I didn’t say anything.” She responded quickly.

“Out Fucking standing. I will PT you all until you Fucking die!” Quann shouted.

“I will PT you all until your assholes are sucking butter milk.” Quann shouted again.

“How about you, you scrounge Little Fuck WAS IT YOU?!” Quann asked/yelled as he grabbed another earth pony.

“SIR, NO SIR!”

“You little fucking piece of shit, I bet it was you.” Quann yelled and was about to punch him.

“Sir, I said it, sir.” The unicorn standing to Quann’s left piped up.

“Well no shit… what have we got here? A fucking comedian. Well I admire your honesty. Hell I like you. You could come over to my house and Fuck my sister.” Quann said, right before he punched the unicorn in the chest, knocking the wind out of him and sending him to his knees.

“MY little scum-Bag. I’ve got your name. I’ve got your ass. You will not laugh. You will not cry. You will learn by the numbers I teach you. Now, Get on your hooves.” Quann said as the Unicorn struggled to stand up.

“You had best un-Fuck yourself or I will Break off your horn and shove it up your ass. DO YOU GET ME.” Quann said

“I get you, sir.” The unicorn said as Quann stepped back to the earth pony.

“What’s your excuse?” He asked.

“Sir excuse for what, sir?” the earth pony asked.

“I’m the one asking the fucking questions here private. Do you understand?” Quann said

“SIR, YES SIR!”

“well thank you very much. May I be in charge for once?”

“Sir, yes sir.”

“Are you choked up? Are you nervous?”

“Sir, I am, sir!”

“Do I make you nervous?”

“SIR..”

“Sir what!? Were you about to call me an ass hole!?”

“Sir, no sir”

“How tall are you private?”

“Sir, four-foot-three sir!”

“Four-foot-three!? I didn’t know they stacked shit that high. You trying to squeeze an inch in on me somewhere, HUH?!”

“SIR, NO SIR!”

“Bull shit. IT looks to me like the best part of you ran down the crack of your mama’s ass and ended up as a brown stain on the MATTRESS! I think you’ve been cheated…. Where in the hell are you from anyway Private?”

“Sir, Appaloosa SIR!”

“HOLY DOG SHIT. Appaloosa? Only steers and Queers come from Appaloosa Private cowboy. And you sure don’t look like a steer to me, so that sure narrows it down….. DO you suck dicks?”

“SIR, NO SIR!”

“Bullshit. I bet you could suck a golfball through a garden hose.”

“Sir, NO SIR!”

“ARE you a Pieter pumper?”

“SIR, NO SIR!”

“I bet you are the kind of guy that would Fuck a pony in the ass and not even have the goddamn common courtesy to give them a reach around. I’ll be watching you.” Quann finished and stood in front of the Recruits.

“Now follow me.”

“SIR YES SIR” they all answered

‘Way to quote full metal jacket’

‘Who the fuck is talking to me?’ Quann thought ’

“Guards Fall in.” Quann ordered and Cooper and the others got in the lineup with Cooper running parallel to the rest of the group. They started trotting to the barracks and decided to start a Cadence.

Home coming

We find Quann looking at some kind of airship with Cooper and the rest of his guards, and one of the lead scientists. The thing had four cylinders on it two in the front and two above them on the back. It was about as big as a two or three Blackhawk helicopters with the tails cut off. And the color? All white.

“What is it?” Quann asked.

“Well sir, this is the most advanced airship in the country of Equestria.”

“What is so advanced about it?” Quann asked, genuinely curious.

“Well as you can see it does not require the balloon like other airship, but is kept afloat

with the four experimental magic engines that turn the magic in the air into thrust.” The scientist responded

“Interesting. Are those sliding doors on the sides?” Quann asked

“Yes they are.”

“I’ll take it.” Quann said as he turned to walk away.

“Yes sir. And we will put your symbol on it.” The scientist said with a bow. But then Quann turned back.

“Anything else sir?” The mare asked.

“Yes, paint it grey.” Quann said as he walked out of the room, followed closely by his guards.

The next day; midday

“You wanted to see me auntie?” Quann asked as he, Cooper and the rest of his guards walked through the big golden door.

“Yes. I have just gotten word that your home has been finished and you can move in.” Celestia said.

“Good, so when do we leave, ma’am?” Cooper asked

“We will depart for ponyville in four hours. They are preparing a party for your return, and Luna and I will be attending.” She answered.

“Thank you for the information.” Quann said respectfully and turned to his guards.

“Ok, pack up what you need; ammo, weapons, medicine, etc. I want us ready to leave in two.” Quann said sternly.

“Yes sir!” They said with a salute, yet for some reason, they didn’t move an inch.

“Well you heard the man. And you know the drill assholes and elbows. Now let’s move ponies double time!” Cooper said to them and they ran to get ready.

“Oh and Raptor?” Celestia said as Quann was about to walk out of the door.

“Yes?”

“Twilight and Rarity can’t wait to see you again. They haven’t seen you scene the Gala." She said kindly.

“That’s good to hear.” Quann said and walked out.

4 hours later.

“Where are they?” Luna asked her sister as they were waited in the carriage.

“I am sure they will get there Luna. But we have to get going.” Celestia said as they took to the air; the nobles had insisted they ride in a carriage pulled by Pegasi.

Elsewhere.

“Is everything ready to go?” Quann asked as the last of his guard entered the V-tol airship.

“Yes sir.”

“Alright then. Mech, you’re up.” Quann said, taking his seat as one of the unicorns walked to the front of the craft and closed the side doors and back hatch.

“Ok, let’s go!” Quann said.

The V-tol’s four engines roared to life lifting the craft off of the ground and over the castle walls. When they were clear of the walls the engines rotated and rocketed to ponyville at high speed.

“Ch’ this is your captain speaking, thank you for choosing to fly with us today on Blackwatch Airways. We know you have a lot of choices of transport so we thank you for choosing Blackwatch as your way to travel.” Mech said over the intercom.

“I wonder if this thing can play CDs...” Quann said until he looked into the cockpit and saw a slot for CDs. Reaching into one of his pouches he levitated one out and placed it into the drive, and then he just sat back down, listening to old music from his and Cooper’s world; more specifically, from the Vietnam War era.

As he sat listening to his guards talk Quann was reached into an old pouch on his armor holding something that he had since before he joined black watch from his days in Nano suit ops his old teams dog tags.

‘everyone has a choice.’ Quann heard in his head.

Ponyville

Every pony in town was gathered waiting for the arrival of the prince and princesses.

“Rarity, when is he getting here!?” Sweetie Bell pestered.

“He will get here soon dear.” Rarity answered, turning to the lavender unicorn standing beside them. “Right, Twilight?” she asked her friend.

“Yes Rarity. The princess is on the way.” Twilight answered.

“Look, they’re here!” somepony yelled

They saw the carriage descend and come to a stop. Out walked Princess Celestia and Princess Luna and every pony immediately bowed. But when they all stood back up they noticed that Raptor and Reaper weren’t with them.

“Princess if you don’t mind me asking, where are Raptor and Reaper?” Twilight asked

“Yes, well, they were not ready yet, so we left without them so as not to be late. But I am sure they are on their way” Celestia answered her student, an almost unnoticeable hint of nervousness in her voice.

“Well if that’s the case lets get this party started!” Pinkie pie said, earning a cheer from everypony, as they finally started having a good time.

Ponyville outskirts

“Sir, we are about 15 minutes out.” Mech said over the music.

“Good get ready to land.” Quann ordered. Through the doors to see the them flying over buildings and meadows. The passed over a compound.

“This is your captain speaking. Please put your tray tables and seat back in their upright position, and please stay seated until we have turned off the seatbelt sign.” Mech said, earning a ‘Shut the buck up’ from Shock Jock.

15 minutes later town square.

“What is that!?” A random pony yelled, pointing a hoof at the strange flying object that was approaching them.

“Monster!” Another pony screamed, causing everyone to hide and the guards present to get the princesses into a nearby building.

As the strange ‘monster’ approached, they heard what sounded like strange music coming from it. When it was over the music stopped, drowning the area in an eerie silence, with the only sound being the constant ‘Roar’ of the monster. Then the four cylinders on the corners angled downward the thing started to descend, the strange streams of fire kicking up a small smoke screen until it touched down, creating a rather sizable dust cloud.

Everypony looked on, scared and curious as to what it was, until they saw the dust clear, and they saw the large craft. But there on the side, they saw a strange symbol; it was a star with two silver wings on either side of it, and under it in a half circle were the words Blackwatch. And under that said Airborne Rangers. Then finally the roar ceased, bathing the area in complete silence.

They saw the piece with the symbol on it slide back, and out stepped 9 ponies in armor of the same design as Raptor and Reaper’s armor. There were four earth ponies, two Pegasi and three Unicorns in the group, and they were all carrying some strange types of crossbows. Then out stepped a Pegasus with red wings and pulsing orange feather tips. He carried another weapon, one which was at least slightly different from the others. But finally, they saw the last pony step out, and they saw that He was easily taller than the others. He was wearing the same armor, but instead of just one blade on his left forehoof like the others, he had another on his right forehoof. This pony had a much larger weapon on his back than the Pegasus who just stepped out. He closed the door on the strange craft with a wing and as they all saw who it was, they started walking to their doors. One small pony wandered out of a building and bolted to the group, eager to meet her friend again.

“I don’t like this. Where is everypony?” Quann said as he pulled down his hood and mask and pulled up his goggles, stepping in front of the group. Quann was about to give a another order when he felt something slam into his leg. Looking down he saw Sweetie Bell latched to his right foreleg with tears streaming down her face.

“I thought you weren’t coming when you didn’t arrive with the princesses.” She said as she got off of his leg.

“Well, I’m here now. That’s all that matters.” Quann said, nuzzling her with his neck. When he looked back up he saw that rest of the ponies were edging their way out of the buildings. Cooper and the other guards saluted Celestia and Luna, who were at the front of the group.

“I see you took the new airship.” Celestia huffed, a bit annoyed.

“Sure did.” Quann said with a smirk.

“I must say, I hardly recognized it.” She said looking at the grey vehicle.

“Hay, who are those guys?” Rainbow dash said pointing at the rest of Quann’s Guard.

“We are Blackwatch. Special operations and combat. But our job is to guard Prince Raptor with our lives.” The guards said.

“Cooool,” A young colt exclaimed excitedly as he looked up toward the troopers with wide eyes.

“Well now that the final guest of honor is here let’s celebrate.” Mayor Mare said.

“Well, you heard her. Get the V-tol and the supplies to the house and get back here and enjoy yourselves Troopers, Dismissed!” Quann said.

“SIR, Yes Sir!” They said, scattering.

The party carried on uneventfully. It was by now night-time and the Princesses had returned to Canterlot. Quann spent most of his time with Rarity and Twilight. Cooper meanwhile, spent his time with Fluttershy. Some of the guards who had been dismissed for the day decided to come to the party and enjoy themselves. Quann, Cooper, Doc and the mane six decided to move their flanks to Twilight’s library.

“Come on sugarcube, just try it.” Applejack said, pushing a cup to Quann on the table.

“What is it?” Quann asked, looking at the brown liquid in the class.

“It’s Applejacks Special hard cider.” Rainbow Dash slurred holding a cup of her own. It was obvious that she was more than a little tipsy.

“Come on man, don’t be a bitch. Drink it. What about you Doc?” Cooper said.

“I don’t Drink alcohol, sir.” Doc said, reaching for a mug of pop instead.

“Fine!” Quann said taking the class and holding it high.

“To Blackwatch!” Quann said and Doc and Cooper raised their glasses.

“To friendship.” Twilight said as the maine six raised their own glasses and they all clanked classes.

They all chugged their drinks, but the second Quann and Cooper finished theirs, they fell on to their knees in pain.

‘hsssssssssssssssssssss’

“AAAAAAAAAAAAgh!” Quann and Cooper screamed, grasping at their chests in agony, much to the horror of the mares, mainly Twilight, Rarity, and Fluttershy.

They could see the Drink hurting their friends/leader. iIn Doc’s case, he could see the fur and flesh at the bottom of their chests start boiling as chunks of Biomass started to fall off of them onto the floor, and finally they saw the cider itself fall on the floor. The Drink had eaten through them like molecular acid eats through metal. The two blobs, one Black and Red, and the other Black and Orange, of Biomass condensed into one large mass about the size of a large dog and started to switch between Red and orange like one was battling for superiority.

Eventually the red color won and it started to shift its shape, forming two legs, two arms and a head. The arms and legs were large and muscular and pulsed with red vanes. The head Quann and Cooper noticed was roughly human shape but with no nose, just the socket. It had about twenty bone colored razor sharp teeth, its hands were clawed and the spine was almost visible, a steady red glow emanating from it. The rest of the skin on the thing was a burnt tan color. And finally it eyes were blood red.

Quann and Cooper, who had just gotten up, knew exactly what is was. Why you may ask? Because they had fought enough of them back in the NYZ Red Zone, and only could think one thing. But then a tail sprouted from its back. It was long; a little over half the thing’s height in length, and was segmented with what looked like spines and a blade at the end of the tail that looked as sharp as the two evolved’s blades. While everypony else panicked, it started growling and advancing on Rarity, swinging its tail behind it.

“What is this vile thing!? Get it away from me.” Rarity yelled, scurrying away from the creature.

“Brawler!” Quann yelled as he and Cooper yelled reaching for their weapons.

And as soon as that thought that was yelled it stopped in its tracks and turned to look at Quann. It walked over and sat in front of him, tail swaying back and forth like a puppy’s.

“What the fuck?” Quann said, already pointing his SAW at the Small Brawler.

He looked up to see that Doc and Cooper also had their weapons trained on the thing. Getting an idea, mind you a stupid idea, he shouldered his weapon and lowered his head to the brawler. It tilted its head to the side. In a way..

“Raptor what are you…” Cooper started.

“ITS SO Cute!” Quann yelled as he leapt at the small Brawler and hugged it. The two rolled on the floor and ended up with the Brawler on top of him licking his face with its long tongue like a dog playing with it’s master, and Quann laughing like a madman the entire time.

Stupefied, Cooper shouldered his weapon and turned to Doc, who looked just as confused, and looked to the Mares who were just as shocked and bit disgusted by the Brawler.

“What the fuck!” Cooper yelled.

“Ok… ok boy, down.” Quann said standing up.

“I am going to name you after my favorite dog, Jack.” Quann said with a smile.

“Darling are you alright?” Rarity asked the object of her affection, hoping he was in good health.

“Ya Rarity, I’m fine, don’t worry. But I do want to know what happened.” Quann said as Jack jumped onto his back.

“I think I have an idea sa.” Doc said. gaining everyone’s attention. He coughed and rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. “Well, from what you two have told me, you two are actually walking viruses.” Doc said, earning a nod from the two.

“And what is alcohol? It is a cleansing agent. Now, I’m not saying it is good for anypony, but it can be used to clean wounds and kill bacteria.” He continued again, earning nods. Twilight gasped as the realization hit her.

“So what you are saying is that because of the virus, the alcohol will essentially clean the area and hurt them. Like it kills bacteria...” Twilight stated.

“Yes, exactly Ms. Sparkle. It will burn right through them.” Doc said with a slow nod.

Quann yawned and stood up. “Well Rarity, Twilight, it’s been fun, but I must get going.” Quann said kissing Rarity and Twilight on the cheek and walking out of the door with Doc and Cooper following him, leaving the two mares blushing.

Going back

Three weeks later Ponyville noon lunch hour

“Hi twilight!” Rarity called to her friend who had just come with spike to an outdoor restaurant. That had a view of a park.

“hi ya gals” Rainbow dash said as she arrived and soon the rest of the mane six had met up at the restaurant.

‘Ring’

“Looks like schools out and it looks like the kids are going to the park for lunch.” Flutershy said seeing the filly’s and colts playing in the playground in the park or eating with their parents or friends.

“Well who can blame them it is a beautiful say out nice job dash.” Appeljack said

“Aah!” Rarity squealed after feeling rub agents her leg gaining strange looks form the other mares. Looking down she saw Jack nuzzling his head agenized her leg. Now with a white and purple collar and next to the name tag there was the Blackwatch symbol complete with the silver wings.

“What is it Rarity?” Spike asked. But then Jack jumped onto the table with a thud.

“Jack? Whatever are you doing away from Raptor?” Fluttershy said.

“What are you looking at Boy?” Pinkie asked and aligned herself to see until Jack jumped off of the table and ran off to the park where it saw Sweetie Bell and her friends.

“Look its Raptor!” a young colt yelled to his friend cloud enough for everypony to here. And they saw Quann followed By the rest of his guards but his guards didn’t have their masks, goggles, or hoods on. His guards were following him in two parallel lines.

They got a big enough area of the park they all sat down and took out Some MRE’s and started eating them. Doc went around and gave water to any pony who needed it. Cooper walked over to mech who was tinkering with something while he was eating.

“What is that Corporal?” Cooper asked

“Well sir it is a motion tracker that will register up to fifty-five meters.” The brown unicorn said.

“Interesting. But what will stop the user from confusing a Friendly form a hostile?” Cooper asked.

“Well sir what it will do is it will pick up trace pheromone singles only given off by a hostel.” Doc said And Doc walked over.

“But if it goes off of pheromones then what will stop it from picking up others that are giving off the same single but not hostel?” Doc asked.

“That is where our training comes in.” Quann said walking up

“All that’s left is to charge the battery.” Mech said as he horn glowed silver and they all saw the screen turn on and start pulsing and they all saw that it worked just as Mech said and it registered no hostiles.

‘burp!’

“Twilight it’s a letter from your Brother.” Spike said holding it up.

‘flash’

A red letter appeared in front of Quann who levitated it with his crimson magic. The letter was written with a type writer meaning it was mass produced.

“This is a general order going out to all members of the royal guard, and the wonder bolts. Princess Celestia is ordering all forces to Canterlot, a threat has been made and the wedding between princess Mia Mora Cadenza. And to troopers the now officially instated Blackwatch Army Rangers this is priority alpha.” Quann read

“Well you heard the letter People let’s move it out! Double time!” Quann shouted and they all got up and sprinted back to compound. Leaving every pony wondering what was going on.

When they reached the compound all you could here was the sound of armor being put on and weapons being prepped. Quann stepped in front of his line of troopers with Jack on his back and inspected them all first was Privet Doc who was squad medic and was equipped with a copy of Quanns shotgun that he carried alongside various medical supplies, next to him was privet first class Crysoch who was one of the quote ‘Riflemen’ who were equipped with the newest version of their special crossbows, next up was lance corporal Mech who was the squad’s tech specialist with holding the same crossbow and had the new motion tracker around his shoulder and a biretta pistol on his hind left leg that was given to him by Cooper who had his sidearm copied.

Next to Mech were the support gunners Privet Shock Jock who had scratched “Born to kill” on his right shoulder piece and Privet Cowboy. They were armed with an experimental crossbow that was capable of fully automatic fire by storing bolts in cylinders that acted like magazines and would rotate to switch the next bolt when the last one was shot and unlike the other crossbows these held seventy-five bolts unlike the other new crossbows thirty.

Then next to them was the only mare in the group Privet second-class Heart Stop. She was squad sniper and as such was given another experimental weapon that was essentially a sniper rifle in crossbow form and unlike the others the bolts she shot was a little over an inch thick. But that meant she had to feed each Bolt one at a time and the Crossbow had some kick to it.

Next was privet call sign Ash. A green earth pony who was another ‘riflemen’, next was a unicorn Privet Frost who again was a ‘riflemen’, and last was a grey Pegasus Privet Gunnfodder who was the heavy weapons specialist and was the user of the newest weapon that only he and now Quann used instead of his javelin that he mounted on the V-tol.

The A-239 Flame unit or Incinerator, the production of witch was over seen and known only to Quann. It is a lightweight, riffle-style flamethrower designed for use in close combat at the squad and fire team level. It works with a dumbed down version of the V-tol’s engines whereas instead of producing thrust the magic in the air is turned to a gas after being condensed, the built up heat is released upon trigger pull creating a torrent of flames upon the target.

And the part Quann decided to add to the designee was where you would normally load a magazine if it was an assault-rifle, or Blackwatch crossbow was a canister where upon the pull of the secondary trigger. Would come into contact with the pilot flame positioned under the barrel and will fire highly concentrated napalm up to thirty feet, sticking to targets and burn them alive. And it only just finished production.

Next to Privet Gunnfodder was Seargent Major Cooper call sign Reaper. Who carried his M4A2 assault carbine, his Side arm that had gone unused since his and Quanns arrival, and on his other shoulder he had had a freshly made copy of Mech’s motion tracker around his shoulder and extra magazines for his M4. But unlike before he had Quanns shotgun witch he cut the stock off of under his left wing for easy access. And extra shells for that to.

And in front of them all was Quann or Prince Raptor, but to his troopers he was First lieutenant Raptor. With his signature SAW on his right shoulder and on the other he had his Incinerator unit. On both of his shoulders and just under the cutie mark on either one of his flanks he had one extra magazine for his SAW and next to them on both sides of them were two canisters of napalm. And last but not least what kind of demolitions expert would be without some C4 plastic explosive and several sticks of semtex witch was the same as C4 but more explosive.

Across his and every one of the troopers chests were grenade bandoleer’s holding frag, smoke, and flash bang grenades. Nodding after tightening a strap on Ashes armor he levitated ten new patches and fused one onto each one of their chests. On the patches was the gold star with the silver blockish wings across the top in a half circle going down was the word Blackwatch and under the star in the same way going up was Air-born Ranger. After each one of them got the patch he levitated one to himself and fused it to his armor. They all saluted him and he returned it.

“Well. . .let’s move it out people. Move it out!” Quann yelled causing them to run into the newly armored V-tol. And take their seats and stow there weapons on the weapon racks.

As the V-tol air craft lifted off the new armor plating they added proved to have been properly attached now no longer was it as sleek but is had sweeping Angeles and now had the two attached javelin rockets to the sides effectively making it a light gunship. The craft turned for Canterlot and rocketed off towards the capital of equestria.

Remember objective: Royal wedding part 1

“Yo Sir!” Mech shouted over the sound of the engines of the V-tol.

“What is it!?” Quann yelled

“You will want to come up and see this!” He replied

“ok on the way” Quann said as he got up and walked up cockpit of the Gunship leaned over Mechs seat and looked threw the strength spell enhanced and black one way Plexiglas windshield and what he saw really shocked him.

“Woah..” Was all Quann could say when he saw the enormous shield slowly surround around Canterlot. But then it hit him at the rate they were moving they wouldn’t make it before the shield was finished raising.

“Mech.” Quann said

“Yes sir?”

“Punch it. I want us in there before that shield is raised. We’ll drop in so that you will be abel to move faster” Quann ordered

“Yes sir. You might want to get ready and tell the others sir.”

“right.” Quann said quickly moving back to his seat but had a flash back.

15 years ago above cuba

“ok listen up gentleman” Quann said to four other soldiers in Nano suits as they reached the drop zone.

“Intel reports a significant military presence on the island. We have the element of surprise, so let’s use it. The Cubans can’t know we are here.” He said.

“They won’t even know what hitem. Hehe.” One of the other soldiers said.

“Can it Twilight! This is a covert operation. Our job it to go in get the data and get out. We aren’t at war here.” Quann said to him.

“Not yet. Boss.” A different soldier commented.

“And let’s keep it that way Mongol.”

“Hay Zulu do we even know if that data is still there?” the third soldier said

“That’s what we are here to find out. Boxer.” Quann said

“Hay if anyone is going to kill these ‘evolved’ assholes its gana be me” Boxer said bumping twilight's gun with his

“You might just get your chance Boxer.” Quann said to the last soldier

“Alicorn team we are beginning approach... stand by for green.” Came over the intercom of the aircraft as the back opened up.

“All right gear up masks on.” Quann said as he pulled down his visor and put on his rebreathe mask.

“Once we clear the plain form up on me. shoots on my mark.” Quann said before they all jumbled out of the plain and the flashback ended.

Flash back end.

“one botched mission.” Quann said before looking up and shaking his head.

“not this team. Not everyone not this time.” he said

‘I could really use that suit now.’ Quann thought before standing up.

“Alright ponies Weapons at the ready!” Quann ordered taking his weapons from there racks and strapped Jack to his chest

“Sir?” Cooper asked

“We are dropping in to Canterlot. Because the Gunship won’t make it there it is too heavy so we are lightening the load and jogging to the castle. So everypony grab your gear and store your fear. Hooah” Quann said putting on a parachute.

“Hooah” They all replied as they all strapped on their weapons and put on their chutes even Cooper, Heart Stop, and Gunfodder who were Pegasus strapped on their parachutes. And when they were all done they all stood up and shuffled to the back door.

“Ok engaging afterburner in 3…2…1 mark” Mech counted down and when he finished he pushed the throttle to the red and the V-tol gunship burst through the air at top speed.

“Reaching drop-zone in five” Mech said over the radio and opened the back hatch.

“Ok 5… 4…3…2…1” Mech said

“GO, GO, GO!” Quann shouted as they all ran and jumped out with him last. When they were all together they angled there decent for a decent sized clearing in the city.

Canterlot we find Celestia Shining armor, and Ultra Magnus the captain of the Lunar guard finish addressing the last of the guards that had just teleported to Canterlot, and the Wonder bolts.

“Any questions?” Shining armor asked.

“What’s so special about this Blackwatch any way sir?” Spitfire asked.

“Well for one they are the first group that isn’t separated depending on the kind of pony they are.” Shining armor said

“well if that’s the case then why are they called air born. If they aren’t all pegasai” Soran said

“Something coming toward the Shield look!” a random wonderbolt said pointing toward the sky.

They all looked where the pony was pointing and saw a large grey object flying toward the castle. And then they saw some little things fall out of whatever it was. Big Shape then got past the shield followed by the 10 smaller things. Ultra Magnus took out a telescope and looked to see what the small things were.

“By Celestia those are ponies!” He Shouted

As the air ship roared overhead and landed in a nearby clearing rotating its engines and used them as breaks. And they could see a symbol that all but two of them had never seen before on its side. And when they looked back they could see strange mushroom shaped things slowing the ten ponies fall until they were out of sight. They heard a bang form the air ship and turned to see the armored door open up and they saw a heavily armored unicorn with something strapped to his left hind leg step out of the craft and they could see he had the same symbol on his chest. They saw him levitate some weird kind of crossbow, and something else that they have never seen before and sit on the edge of the craft goggles ever glowing.

“Alright people unhook and fall in” Quann said as they all got up and unhooked there parachutes and felling line for some it was essayer but for others like Cowboy and Cooper who got stuck in a tree. Quann walked up to them with Jack by his side.

“Jack Cut them down. Boy.” He said. And the brawler ran up the tree and cut them down with his tail causing the two to fall on their faces. Quann pulled down his hood to rest on his armored collar.

“Alright ponies let’s move!” Quann said

“Yes sir” they responded. As Quann turned ad started trotting behind him as he started a Cadence.

“Oh once there were ten-thousand green barrettes!” Quann shouted

“Oh once there were ten-thousand green barrettes.” They repeated

“Trapped in a valley by the N.B.A!”

“Trapped in a valley by the N.B.A.”

“The president he knew just what to do!”

“The president he knew just what to do.”

“He called on me and he called on you!”

“He called on me and he called on you.”

They continued But back at the Castel entrance things were starting to get weird as more and more of the lunar, royal guard, and wonder bolts got curious as to what this new stallion was doing here.

Mech looked up from his spot on the side door to the gunship. And they saw him reach into one of his pouches and pouches and pull out a small square rock with his right hoof and brought up his left for hoof up and started sharpening his arm Bayonet.

‘shink…..shink’

That really put them all on edge seeing the obvious weapon so close to the princess. But then then they heard what sounded like chanting starting with silver wings.

And as soon as they herd that they saw Mech stand up put his sharpening stone away and close the door to the gunship finally letting them get a good look at the symbol and there were the words that shocked all but Celestia who had seen the air ship before, and shining armor who knew the armor. The words said Blackwatch and under the star it said Air-born Rangers.

“But if I die on that old drop zone!” Quann said as he and the others reached the back of the group and made their way towards the front.

“But if I die on that old drop zone.”

“Box me up and ship me home!”

“Box me up and ship me home.”

Quann stoped as he got to the front of the group. And he and the other Blackwatch troopers saluted.

“Ma’am Blackwatch reporting as ordered. Priority alpha.” Cooper said.

“Yes it is good to see you. But I must ask Prince raptor was that entrance necessary?” Celestia asked Quann.

“Yes it was auntie you see our air ship wouldn’t have made it through the shield. With us inside it would have been too heavy to make it into the shield in time” Quann said

“Well I can sure see why you are all dressed like you are going to war. Now come with me we have much to discuss.” Celestia said smiling to her battle hardened nephew who nodded in acknowledgement. And Quann walked into the castle. Causing most of the other guards to wander off.

“What is it Auntie why are we really here? Why was this priority alpha?” Quann asked

“I need to know now I won’t lose another team to bad Intel.” He added

“What do you mean a another team?” Celestia asked curiously

“not know alright ill tell you later ok” he answered

“its alright Raptor.” She said

“Any way why are we here?” he askes

“we have been getting reports of suspicious activity near the entrance to the abandoned crystal mine. So I want your team to go and check it out.” She replied.

“Any idea what it is?” Quann asked

“We believe it to be a group of diamond dogs that might have taken up residence in the mine.” She replied

“let me guess. You want us to go check it out?” Quann asked sarcastically

“yes I do.”

“Consider it done. When should we begin the operation?” quann responded.

“When the elements arrive. And that will be Some time tomorrow. In the meantime why don’t you spend some time with Cadence I’m sure she would be happy to see you. Now I have preparations to attend to.” She said with a smile.

Quann nodded and lowered his gas-mask and goggles and walked back outside.

Quann stepped outside and saw his guards answering all kinds of questions from the left over guards and the wonderbolts. But when cooper saw him he saluted followed by everypone else.

“Alright what’s the hell is going on here?” he asked

“They were just asking us some questions.” Cooper answered.

“Alright let’s hear them”

Else ware

“My queen.”

“What is it.”

“the new prince that princess cadence mentioned has arrived.”

“Good. And I can already sense the mixed feelings in him.”

“What do you mean?”

“He seeks power. But wants to protect his loved ones.”

“Then when do we capture him my queen?” the changling asked with a bow

“Tomorrow when they are checking the mine and there we will capture the new prince. And then Equestria will Fall!” Chrysalis said laughing.

Bug Hunt: Royal wedding part 2

Quann, and Cooper stood in front of their team with princess Celestia, and shining armor off to the side.

“Ok our mission is to check out the abandoned crystal mine.” Cooper said to the eight troopers in front of him.

“What kind of resistance should we expect, sir?” private Cowboy asked sarcastically.

“That’s unknown private. But how about you ask them when we get there.” Quann said with just as much sarcasm. Then Gunfodder raised his hoof, gaining a response from both Celestia and Quann.

“What is it private/what is your question my loyal pony?” Both aunt and nephew asked at the same time, albeit with Celestia sounding more kind.

“Is this going to be a stand up fight sir, or a bug hunt?” He asked. Oh, if he only knew the full extent of what was to come. (The word Bug being used as a term defining anything that is not the species saying it.)

“All we know is that diamond dogs might be involved.”Quann answered

“It’s a bug hunt.” Gunfodder said to the others who gave a chuckle.

“Ok, we will be doing this strict and by the numbers I want the throne room outfitted with the model command center and everypony prepped and in the drop ship in three hours. Dismissed.” Cooper said, earning a salute from the troopers who slowly started to trot out.

“Well, you heard the man and you know the drill. Assholes and elbows move it out.” Quann said/yelled causing them to almost run out of the room.

“Heart, stop.” Quann said causing her to stop and face him.

“You will not be going on this mission. We need to have eyes on the outside and keep an eye on the princess. Understood?” Quann said.

“Yes sir, you can count on me.” She replied.

“Good” Quann said as he and cooper walked past her to get ready themselves.

“Ma’am the elements have arrived” a guard said with a bow to the princess as he entered the room passing the two evolved on their way out. And Jack jumping off of Quann’s back and running to Celestia’s side.

Blackwatch armory

All anypony could hear were the sounds of armor being clicked into place and weapons prepped as they sharpen their hoof bayonets and load magazines into their crossbows and Shockjock and Cowboy loading batteries into their large crossbows.

Quann used this time to come to peace and find calm.

He took a can and sprayed ‘el riesgo siempre vive’ (the risk always lives) on to his left hoof bayonet. He proceeded to don his gas mask and goggles, picked up his weapons and used his magic to tie a red ribbon given to him by Applebloom to a bullet hole in his armored collar. Finally, he reached down into one of his pockets and took out a picture of Rarity and Twilight and, after looking at it for a bit, put it away.

“Not this time.” Quann said to himself.

Meanwhile, Frost and Ash were exchanging bullshit that could be boiled down to the proverbial dick measuring contest. Doc was gearing up his medical supplies. Shock Jock and Cowboy were doing pull-ups somehow. Crysoch was writing a letter who from what anypony could only guess was either to his parents or to his special somepony. Cooper and mech were double checking the weapons and gear and last, but not least, Gunfodder was sitting next to Quann, also meditating.

All of a sudden the alarm blared and the nine of them scrambled into the Drop ship, Quann screaming orders all the while.

Elsewhere

Twilight and the rest of the mane six were inside of a kitchen with Twilight preaching about how this was not Cadence who had just left. When they heard some pony scream outside and they all ran outside and the mares saw the form of Raptor’s drop ship scream overhead. Immediately getting concerned Twilight suggested they go to the princess, to which they all agreed.

Castle throne room

The main six entered the throne room to see both princesses and Shining Armor watching some kind of video feed along with the mare in Raptor’s guard.

When they got closer they could see nine video feeds, each with names above them, from Raptor to Frost. And they could see what looked like heart monitors monitoring there vitals under each screen.

“Um princess, if you don’t mind me asking, what is going on?” Twilight asked.

“Well Twilight, I have sent Raptor and his team to investigate the activity around the abandoned crystal mine.” She said with a smile, turning back to the screen.

“They’re there.” Shining Armor said.

Crystal Mine entrance

"ALRIGHT! weapons check!" Cooper yelled and they all pulled the actions on there weapons yelling "check" one at a time.

"Raptor a few words!?" Cooper said making every pony look to the prince.

"What ever deity may guide my life... dear lord don't let me die tonight. But if I shall before i wake." Quann started

"I except my fate" he finished

"Hell ya!?" He yelled

"HELL YA!" they all yelled in response.

"Hell ya."

“Everypony out!” Quann shouted as he and the others ran out of the dropship and made their way into the mine. Everypony watching was on edge.

They soon reached the mine shaft, took out their rappelling equipment and climbed down into its depths.

“Alright Reaper, take point with tracker, Cowboy, stay on him.” Quann ordered as they all proceeded further into the mine. The only thing that could he heard aside from their hoofsteps was the sound of Cooper’s motion tracker.

As they went further into the depths, they noticed that it was getting hotter. Shining Armor had to respect the deliberate movements of the soldiers, they seemed to be so bonded as a team that they became a single body, moving to help each other and covering all possible blind spots.

“What the hell man, it’s hot as buck down here.” Frost said.

“Yeah, but it’s a dry heat.” Gunfodder said.

“Stow it you two.” Quann said

‘tick’

“Check those corners.” Quann ordered, not noticing that the video feed from the team was getting static.

‘tick’

“Check those corners.”

‘tick’

Quann and Cooper suddenly noticed that they could not access their Blacklight powers after they stepped on some green stuff. Stopping the team, Quann reached down to touch it and found it was rather thick, but not sticky.

‘Strange I can't feel my connection to the virus.’ Quann thought as he moved his hoof blade through it.

“Aunty Celestia, have you ever seen this kind of shit before?” He asked

“No Raptor, I ‘static’ say I have” She replied.

“Then what the hell is it?” Quann asked

"Hey, maybe it's a new element….. Up-your-tainium" Frost joked, as the rest of the troopers joined in the chuckles. They stopped just when they all heard the whine of the motion tracker gaining everyone’s attention.

“I’ve got movement!” Cooper said, causing them all to raise their weapons.

“Talk to me, Reaper.” Quann said.

'Whine'

“You’re just reading us” Cowboy said.

'Whine'

“No I’m not man, look! I’ve got movement in front and behind.”

“I’ve got it to. Range twenty meters... they’re all around us!” Mech said putting every pony both in the mine and in the throne room on edge.

'Whine'

“Steady.” Quann said with an edged calm.

'whine'

"whine'

“15 meters.” Cooper said.

“I’m not seeing anything on infrared.” Quann said holding his SAW and standing on his hind hooves, followed closely by Gunfodder, Cowboy, and Cooper.

‘Whine’

“Steady!” Quann said again.

‘Whine!’

“Ten meters.” Mech said. Everyone in the throne room could see their pulses skyrocket.

"steadyyy!" quann repeated

'Whine'

“Maybe they don’t show up on infrared at all!?” Ash said, backing up. Then it happened.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaa!” They all heard and the ponies in the throne room, saw Ash’s life signs flare and flat line, and looking back they could see the blood on the walls. Turning around Quann gave the universal signal to engage.

“LETS ROCK!!” Quann shouted as they all started firing at anything that moved and wasn’t a pony, but it was too dark to tell what he was hitting. He knew that he was hitting something by the screams of pain and death as bolts, fire and bullets flew through the air.

Just then in the throne room, the video cut out, and all they could here was the sound of the battle. The sounds of an enemy they could not see and of the nine remaining troopers fighting back filled the air.

“Please be alright, Raptor.” Rarity said tears forming in her eyes. That is when they all heard Raptor’s voice again.

“Mech, flamethrower! Catch!” Quann shouted as he threw the weapon to the unicorn, who grabbed it in a telekinetic grip and began to burn everything in sight. They all heard Quann shouting.

“YEAH YEAH, get some!” They all heard from Shock Jock’s screen

“YEAH, how about you?! Oh you want some too? Here, HAVE SOME!!” Quann shouted as he kept firing doing a half-skip backwards .

“Fuck!” Quann shouted as his SAW Jammed. He threw the now useless weapon to the ground and looked up to see one of the... whatever they were, coming at him from above. Acting quickly, he stabbed it in the throat with his left hoof bayonet.

However, he failed to see the other five coming at the same time until it was too late for him to draw his sidearm. At the very moment he was about to be killed, he was grabbed and thrown out of the way.

“Crysoch, NOOOOOO!” Yelled Quann as he saw the trooper suffer several wounds at the hooves of the monsters.

At the castle they saw Crysoch’s vitals flat line.

“Where’s Crysoch?!” Frost shouted into Cooper’s camera.

“Where’s Ash?!” Gunfodder shouted.

“Fuck this! Fuck the Princess! And Fuck our orders! TROOPERS! We. Are. Leaving!” Quann shouted, shocking everyone in the throne room at the thought that he was just leaving his friends and badmouthing his aunt like that.

"Alright people, move! Double time, hell even single time will do!" the lieutenant yelled loudly in a voice that seemed to almost rival the royal Canterlot voice. The ponies in the hangar were watching with bated breath.

As they all turned to run their attackers pounced on Cowboy who had pushed Mech out of the way. They kept running, only sparing a brief look back at Cowboy who had sacrificed himself for Mech and they and the ponies in the throne room saw a mass of black, and they saw Raptor stop running and hold a hoof out to Reaper.

"Reaper. Grenade." he said with a sad tone. As the pegasus gave him one of his Frags.

"Go well." and with that they saw him pull the pin and roll it into the writhing pile.

'thank you sir.'

'boom!'

Every pony inside the thrown room had a shocked look on there face at the action they had seen. and when they all looked back to reaper they saw him slowly but crisply salute the fallen solderer.

"Go." quann said as he drooped the salute.

The troopers turned away and kept running, but Cooper kept watching as did the ponies in the throne room. Cooper saw the once positive pony cease to exist in the explosion. Turning around Cooper focusing on keeping the remaining seven, including himself and Quann alive.

“AGH!”

They all turned around and saw that Quann had fallen and was grabbing his left hind leg, which was bent at an awkward angle.

"HOW THE FUCK!" Quann shouted to the world

Hearing their attackers behind them, Cooper ordered them to lay down a suppressing fire which they did while he secured the alicorn to his back so that he could still use his weapon.

Finally they reached the cliff they had entered at and they started climbing out, the pegasi helping the non Pegasi by pulling their ropes until all that was left was Cooper and Quann, the latter firing away with his pistol at their adversaries below. Cooper was struggling to hold onto the rope while still not being able to use his powers.

“Tell Rarity and Twilight I’m sorry. Tell them I love them.” Quann said.

“You’re not going anywhere Quann, you understand me!? Tell them yourself.” Cooper said seeing that they were almost to the top. Suddenly, Cooper felt Quann squirming.

“Hey, what are you doing back there!?”

“Make sure you take care of your mare, Cooper.” Quann said in a clear voice, meaning he had taken off his mask and goggles. Just then Cooper felt even more weight on his body.

“Agh, get off my hoof bitch” He shouted as the thrashing made Cooper’s grip loosen

Suddenly the thrashing stopped, and they saw Quann reach into his pocket and take out the picture of Twilight and Rarity.

“Sorry girls.” Quann said, shedding a tear for the first time in years. He put the photo away, pulled off his tags and handed them to Cooper.

“Give them to the crusaders.”

“Fuck that man, what are you doing?!” Cooper asked when he felt Quann/Raptor bring up his two forehoof blades.

“I guess I’m always saving your ass, huh Cooper?” Quann said.

“It’s been an honor. Raptor out.” Quann said and they all saw him do the unthinkable; he cut the straps holding him to Reaper/Cooper. As he fell back into the black abyss below they all heard him make one last transmission.

“Make it count.” And with that he disappeared into the depths.

castel

“NOoooooooo!” Cooper shouted as the other troopers pulled him up, got into the Dropship and hauled ass back to the castle.

“Oh... no...” Rarity pleaded, looking at Raptors now active video feed going darker until it suddenly burst into static, followed by his lifelines flat lining. They all knew what she was talking about; they saw the screen and the flat line and it hit them; Prince Raptor had gone down saving his team. Rarity and Twilight broke down crying, seeing their love die again. They all felt for them, Celestia especially. The guilt at the fact that ordering them in there had gotten her nephew and his friends killed, it tore her up inside.

Just then they all heard the cry of engines. They all ran outside to see the Blackwatch drop ship landing and the remaining six stumbled out meaning frost, Gunfodder, Mech, Shock Jock, Doc and Cooper. They all quickly ushered them to the throne room. Once there the troopers got scared and angry, and Cooper was the first to speak his mind.

“Why the fuck would you send us in there!?” Cooper yelled

Just then the others decided to speak their mind to.

“Well now that the prince isn’t here anymore. We are in some real pretty shit now man! Game over man!” A very tired and scared Shock jock said.

Just then Mech stepped over and glanced at the monitors And saw something that amazed him.

“Hay look guys.” Mech said gaining every ponys attention.

“What is it Mech?” Doc asked.

“It’s he LT he aint dead man.” Mech said earning a ghasp from them all and giving hope to Twilight and Rarity.

“Ya. . His life signs are low but they’re there.” Frost said looking over Mechs shoulder

“Well then you have to go get him.” Shining armor said

“Fuck that man! Im not going back in there!” Gunnfodder yelled scared

“I have to agree with gunnfodder.” Cooper said

“How could you say that he is your friend.” Rainbow dash said.

“she is right you know.” Celestia said

“Im not sending my troops back in there.” Cooper said with the lights on his armor, eyes and goggles flashing glowing Orange before going back to normal.

“We the…” She tried to counter

“I don’t know if you’ve been keeping up with current events. But we just got our asses kicked Ma’am!” Shock Jock said to the princess.

“Dis-assemble the command station. Mission failed.” Cooper said earning a nod from the other guards who took it apart.

Darkness it was the only thing quann could see and the heat of the mine. He groaned and felt like all of his joints were stiff. He tried to move but found that couldn’t.

“Well well you must be prince Raptor.” A beautiful voice said in a sultry tone

‘my my he is a very handsome stallion. I may just have to make him my mate.’ She thought

“Ya I am. Who wants to know?” Quann asked. Finally opening his eyes and seeing possibly one of the most beautiful creatures he has seen in his life.

This Creature that looks like a pony with a twisted unicorn horn, a beautiful pair of tattered insectoid wings, and stood as tall as Princess Celestia. Unlike a pony however, she had a sharp pair of fangs and dark green eyes with elongated oval pupils. She had a teal mane and tail, blue-green what looked like armor plating over her midsection, and she wears a small, black crown tipped with blue orbs. Her legs, mane, and tail are full of holes and her limbs and torso are very slender.

If there was ever such a thing as love at first sight quann was down. And he cursed his lack of his gasmask because it showed his furious blush that was redder than his infection mark.

“Well since you asked allow me to introduce myself I am Queen Chrysalis. And I have a proposition for you.” She said putting a hoof on her chest

“What kind of proposition?” Quann asked trying to keep his emotions under control.

“Why that’s simple my handsome stallion. I will give you the power you so greatly desire.” She said

“What are you talking about.” He replied

“Don’t try to hide it. You want power to protect the ones you love. And I can give it to you.”

“ok then what do you have in mind.” He replied.

“Well I give you the power and make you my mate.” She replied.

“Why would you do that?” Quann asked.

“Easy we changelings feed on love. And I can already feel it from you directed towards me and another two so I would not only be gaining a mate but a permanent food source that I would not have to drain.” She said with a smile

“But the catch is you have to help me in the upcoming attack on canterlot. So do we have a deal.” She said using her magic to cut him down from the wall and let him fall to the ground with his eyes closed.

“What makes….” Quann started

“Think about it you will finally be able to keep your friends safe.” Chrysalis said cutting him off seeing him smirk at the last part.

“fine. I’ll do it. Just one question.” Quann said.

“What is that?”

“What will you do to give me the power.”

“Just a spell that will give you your darkest desire.”

“DO it.” He finally said with a sigh

“As you wish prince Raptor.” She said as her horn glowed with a green aura and she shot a beam of green magic at
Quann causing him to scream in pain as his body began to glow white and his body to stretch and warp.

He became taller as the joints in his fore legs reversed and his hind legs changed. His wings began to recede into his back and his horn shrunk into his head, his tail receded until it was nothing. And then there was a blinding flash of light as Chrysalis finished the spell causing her to close her eyes off from the light if the spell.

And when she opened them she couldn’t believe her eyes there in front of her was a creature that was only mentioned in ancient legends. A creature of the ancient bipeds that inhabited the planet millennia ago before even the first modern race that inhabited equestrian were conceived and prospered with no magic at all. But had brought about its own end and paving the way for the modern races to take root. It had light milk chocolate skin and had furry only on its eye brows and on top of its head. But then she remembered who this was and gasped.

“Raptor?” She asked the creature finally stood up to its full height easily eye level with herself meaning he was as tall as celestia. And flexed its fingers earning a cracking from them and popped its neck and back the same way and rolled its shoulders and judging from all of the cracking she would say that he was very stiff and knew this creatures form well if he was able to move it and stay balanced on only two legs. Also while he was doing his stretches she could see how the armor he was warring looked more intimidating than it did before meaning that THIS is how it was supposed to look and the thought of a group of soldiers dressed like that coming after you would not be pretty.

And finally after a deep inhale He stopped moving. And opened his eyes and she saw his right eye was a dark brown, But the other one surprised her because his left eye was glowing the same green as her magic a side effect of the spell. Then he him smirk.

“Look out Reaper cause im coming for ya. And I guess this means we are pulling out most of the stops.” Quann said.

Then she saw him reach into one of the many pouches on his armor. But what caught her eye about this pouch was that it looked older than the rest and when he reached in she saw him take out what looked like goggles of some sort while they looked almost like ski goggles IF a little more angled. But two things stood out the most to her the first was that the frames were made primarily of some silvery metal and looked like it was meant to go with some kind of face mask, And the second was that they were almost completely black to the point she couldn’t see through them making her wander how he used them. But apart from that they looked like regular goggles. That is however until he put them on and she saw the corners of the goggles start glowing red from some source inside of the frames casting light through the rest of the goggles that stopped near the middle of the lenses.

‘Visor online. Suit functions disabeld’

“What are those?” She asked

“These?” quann asked gesturing to his goggles and she nodded.

“They are a part of my past life if you will. It’s called a Nano visor.” Quann answered

‘well that serenely makes him look more intimidating.’

“I will. Need a new weapon though Because I can’t just use my pistol.” Quann said finally looking directly at her. And he could tell she was thinking hard at that question but then a sense of realization hit her.

“There is one weapon that comes to mind. You!” She said pointing to a small group of changelings in a dark corner.

“Yes my queen?” they all said at once.

“Bring the item.” She ordered and they disappeared leaving just Quann and Chrysalis.

“Well I must say You are very beautiful Chrysalis.” Quann said making her snap her head toward him With a completely new expression than the one he had seen not two minutes ago. While that one was more proud and even slightly conceded. This one was full of sad ness and fear almost like when Fluttershy first saw Cooper and him.

“What?” She asked her voice shaking confirming his previous notion. But that is what puzzled him.

“What about what?” Quann asked confused

“What you said.” she answered

“What I said you were beautiful. Why you act like you have never heard that from anybody before?” He asked pulling up his Nano visor.

“No I haven’t not in this form at least. My true form.” She said

“Well why the fuck not?” Quann asked quizzically

“Because look at me im hideous and I have holes every ware. How could any pony love me let alone call me beautiful.” She screamed with tears streaming down her face when quann stopped her.

“No you’re not!” Quann yelled

“What do you mean?” She asked crying.

“I mean you are one of the most beautiful creatures I’ve ever seen! Your eyes your wings, wings and horn, The way that you were able to actually capture me. Everything Chrysalis I love everything about you! So don’t you ever say you are hideous so please stop crying.” Quann said. And when he finished she gave him probably the tightest hug he had ever been in but returned the hug anyway and hejust stood there and let her cry into his shoulder.

“Nopony has ever said that to me before they all just run away or make me leave. Ive never had somepony actually love me. Thank you so much Raptor.” She said

“Don’t mention it Chrysalis.” He said

“Raptor?”

“ya?” he asked

“This may hurt abet sorry.” She said as she reared back and clamped down right between his neck and his right shoulder. Piercing his clothes. And when she was done she let go of the hug and backed up warily.

“What? I thought you said that would hurt?” Quann said

“Well I was told by a few of the other changelings that it did” she said

“Well I guess I just have a high pain tolerance.” Quann said and the two laughed a bit until they heard the sound of something being dragged on the ground and they quickly put there ‘game faces’ on and Quann put down his Nano visor. As four changelings walked in dragging a huge compared to them box and they dragged it in front of the two.

“What is it?” Quann asked as Chrysalis opened it with her magic.

“I don’t know. But I found it one day deep in the hive in the wasteland. We think it belonged to some long extinct race. And I haven’t let it go far ever since probably to fill some kind of hole. But now that I have you I feel I don’t need it any more so I want you to have it.” She said as the chest finally opened.

The first thing he noticed about the weapon was that it was obviously a riffle. It was easily bigger than his chest in length like his saw if a little shorter. The second thing he noticed about it was the lack of any kind of stock short of a little stub jutting out more of a guard then anything with glass on it. In fact along the riffle there were strips of glass or whatever the material was and on one section there was the shape of a gear with a skull in the center. Then he saw it there under the barrel there was the serrated blade and upon further inspection he saw that it was indeed a saw that went further into the gun looped around and returned making it a chainsaw but the blades were barbed. He also noticed the magazine was rather large and when he took it out and looked at the bullet he saw that they were rather large but manageable. Also he saw two buttons by the trigger which he assumed the safety and the activation for the chainsaw but he dismissed the latter when he saw a lever that had on it the words ‘Lancer Mk2’.

But finally he reached in and grabbed it by the handle in the and took it out of the chest and grabbed it by the handle in the hole between the gun and chainsaw. And when he pressed the button he saw the glass material flicker and turn a sustained blue even the iron sites. And he noticed something else about the gun it was amazingly light for a gun its size meaning it could be fired with one hand if need be.

But then a glint on the side caught his eye upon looking at the blade further he saw scratched into it like runes were a series of words that read ‘Last of the Coalition of ordered governments.’ And on the other side it read ‘COG Onyx Guard.’ On the other side it also read Gears keep turning. And finally he rested it gained his chest and looked over to chrysalis.

“That’s a good look.” She said with a smile.

“Chrysalis.” Quann said

“Yes. Raptor?” she asked

“I Fucking Love it!” Quann shouted with a huge grin and quickly put the gun on his back witch it somehow stayed attached and ran and gave her a huge hug witch she eagerly returned.

“Now then chrysalis I think we have a wedding to crash. And there are a few things I need your changelings to set up for my fight with cooper” Quann said

“Yes I agree what do you have in mind.” She asked

“Oh but there is one more thing no fatalities during the attack.” Quann said

“Anything for you my mate. But there is one thing thow.” She said

“What is that?” Quann asked

“If the attack fails you will be reverted back to your previous form. I’m sorry.” She said.

“Hay you have nothing to be sorry about.” Quann said and their faces only inches apart and they finally moved in and passionately kissed.

QvC: Royal weeding ends

“Tactual options available.”

“Sir the items are in place as you instructed.”

“good”

There were many thought running through the minds of the ponies in the throne room as they watched for cadence to walk down the aisle. With the dismissal of twilight Shining’s best mare because of her obsession with proving that cadence wasn’t who she said she is. And the absence of Prince Raptor who was going to walk Cadence down the aisle. Frost, Gunnfodder, Mech, Shock jock, Doc, Heart stop and Cooper were standing off to the sides of the alter.

“I really wanted to meet this raptor our daughter keeps talking about” The mothers of both Rarity and Twilight said to their husbands

“Rarity I thought you said Raptor was gana be hear.” Sweety bell asked her sister quietly.

“Raptor couldn’t make it deer. That is why he wanted us to bring you and your friends here to fill in." Rarity responded sadly

Princess Mi Amore Cadenza walked up the aisle. Rainbow Dash had the strangest feeling there was singing going on somewhere, but the blare of the trumpets brought her back to her senses. The alicorn joined Shining Armor and the ceremony began and ended. Almost.

“Stop!” Twilight’s voice echoed in the great hall. She appeared, silhouetted in the grand doorway and the bride started crying again. Some ponies were sensitive like that.

“That’s not the real cadence I am.” They heard from the door and saw another cadence looking worse for ware.

“She’s a changeling. They take the form of the pony you love. And feeds off your love for them!” she said. As the big door behind them closed.

Having been found out chrysalis decided to drop her disguise. And in a Torent of Green fire what every pony saw at the alter was her in her true form.

“Right you are princess. And as queen of the Chainglings it is up to me to find food for my subjects. Equestria has more love than any place I’ve ever encountered. My fellow chainglings will be able to devour so much of it that we will gain more power than we have ever dreamed of.” She said smugly as she walked up to the real cadence.

“They’ll never get the chance! Shining armors protection spell will keep them from ever even reaching us!” Cadence yelled

“hm oh I doubted that. Isn’t that right dear?” Chrysalis said turning to shining with her horn glowing.

“hmmmhm.” He said with a nod. Then cadence tried to make an angry dash for shining but Chrysalis stepped in front of her.

“Ah. A. Don’t want to go back to the cave now do we?” She said causing cadence to back off

“Ever since I’v took your place ive been feeding on Shining Armors love for you. Every moment he grows weaker and so does his spell. Even know my minions are chipping away at it.” She continued walking back to the alter making the occupants on the room gasp.

“He may not be my husband. But he is under my total control now.” She said earning another gasp from Cadence.

“And im sorry to say unable to perform his duties ad captain of the royal guard!”

Everypony stepped back and gasped. And the troopers leveled and fired their weapons only for their shots to be stopped by a green shield.

“Damn it!” Cooper said seeing their weapons had no effect

“Soon my changeling army will break through. First we take canterlot then all of equestrian!” She explained as she hovered over the alter.

“No you won’t.” Now every pony turned to see Celestia walking up to Chrysalis looking angry.

“You may have made it impossible for Shining Armor to raise his spell.” She said as Chrysalis landed opposite of her still looking smug.

“But now that you have so Foolishly reviled your true self I can protect my subjects From you!” She said taking flight and fireing a golden spell at the changeling queen who fired a green one of her own.

The two spells met in the middle with a brilliant flash of light and struggled for a bit and they saw Chrysalis getting nervous but eventualy to both parties surprise the queen was the one who prevailed causing Celestia to fall back to the floor her crown flying off. And Again every pony gasped.

“Ah. Shining Armors love for you was even more powerful than I thought. Absorbing it has made me even more powerfull than celestia!” Chrysalis yelled

“Princess Celestia!” Twilight yelled as she, her friends and Cooper and his troops ran to her side.

“The elements of harmony. You must get to them and use their power to defeat the queen! Reaper you know what to do.” Celestia told them.

“yes princess well keep them safe.” Cooper said

“How dare thow harm thy sibling!” they heard as they left the castle.

As they were running they all heard what sounded like glass shattering and they saw thousands of chaingling flying in and some flew straight for them.

“Fire! And advance!” Cooper shouted riring his weapon at the advancing changelings and cutting another in half with his blades. The other troopers quickly followed suit and fired there weapons at the hostels and.

“AAh!” They turned to see a changeling had tackled Fluttershy to the ground and was only about to do the unthinkable to her when they saw him impaled with one of coopers blades. And was lifted off of her and cooper turned him to look him eye to glowing orange goggles.

“Hooves off my mare.” He said in a low angry voice. As he ripped the changeling in half. And turned to the others who were staring at him in shock and even the other changelings who had seen it stopped to look.

“GO! Ill hold them off!” Cooper yelled to them And they ran off all except Gunnfodder.

“Gunnfodder wha…” Cooper started when he interrupted him

“Ive got your back sir.” He said as he set another changeling on fire with his incinerator and Got next to Cooper as the others disappeared behind them.

“Lets do this.” The two of them said to the changelings in front of them. This enraged the changelings and they rushed the two Pegasus.

One tried to jump onto Cooper but he caught it by its horn and ripped out its wind pipe and let it try and strugle in its own blood for air on the ground. making the other changelings back up then they saw three of there brethren in fire and shouting and roaring on the ground engulfed in fire and hey could see the flesh falling off of bone on one.

"Ya this'll be fun." Gunnfodder said with a smirk behind his mask.

Music end

Else ware The element barriers and the other five troopers had just arrived at the building. But when they got up the stares they were met with the site of even more changelings.

“Looks like we are going to have to do this the hardway!” Rainbow Dash said. And twilight went on to say some other stuff they didn’t care about.

“What the buck do you think we have been doing.” Shock Jock said loading a new arrow cylinder.

“Hay give her a break Shock.” Heart stop said.

“Ya. After all this is where fun begins.” Frost said holding his crossbow in a yellow aura.

“Alright Stalions and Mares!” Mech shouted loud enough for everypony to hear making the changelings and elements to stop mid charge.

“Lets do this.” He said pumping the shotgun Raptor gave him with his hooves and levitating incinerator that again Quann gave him.

“Ya what he said!” Rainbow shouted wanting to add her two cents. Then all hell broke loose with them all firing there weapons and what not.

They were in dire straits there ammo was running low and there seemed to be no end to them. But they were finally able to get the door open but they were met with more changelings.

“RAUUUR”

“What was that!?” they heard a chaingling yell and they

“What is that thing!”

“BY the Queen!”

Were some of the things they heard then they saw the body of a changeling smash into a building across the street and explode into a shower of blood and entrails as well as some bones SOME being the key word there. And a another changeling round a corner only to be impaled by something.

And finaly they saw a welcome and familiar sight bound around a corner and slam another changeling into a wall.

“Look its Jack!” Twilight yelled. Gaining his attention. And seeing that his friends were in trouble The brawler jumped in front of them and the changelings and roured at them ripping a changeling in half with his tail and crushing a challenging into paist with his hands crushing bones and organs alike.

“Well the little fella aint so little any more is he?” apple jack commented Seeing that he was almost four times there size and looked more intimidating than before.

"See now in any other situation i would just say No. Noooo.! And just walk away but hear ill make an exception." Frost said

And with a snarle jack ran forward and grabbed a changeling and picked it up and bit its head off. And the fight to get the elements continued with Jack now at there side and to be honest it wasn't really a fare fight with a now 300 pound Brawler on the ponies side because all they really did now was watch as he ate, smashed, Ripped apart, shredded, or generally dismembered the changelings . Then they all heard a huge explosion.

Back in the thrown room same time.

“What was that!?” Cadence asked.

“That? Well you see Princess That was my new general.” She said with a sinister smile. As they saw the explosion.

Cooper and Gunnfodder same time.

“That’s the last of them.” Cooper said as he pulled his left blade out of a corps.

“Ya lets go catch the others and give them a hand.” Gunnfodder said earning a nod from Cooper.

But when they turned to go the building next to them exploded.

When Cooper opened his eyes seeing that he was on his back. His vision was all cloudy and to his left he saw the building what was destroyed, looking in front of him he saw a figure walking towards him but it was to blurry to make out any details, looking left he saw his riffle and looking back toward the figure he saw that it was almost to him and with one ditch effort he tried to lunge for his M4. But his Hoof was stepped on and finally his vision cleared. And he saw something he hadn’t seen in a while a Human looking down at him and he noticed he had the black watch armor on but had no gas mask and had on strange goggles and two arm bayonets.

“Quann?” Cooper asked.

“Sup Bitch.” Quann said raising his other foot to stomp on him when he was tackled off of Cooper by Gunnfodder.

Quann rolled to a stop and jumped to his feet and brought his hands up to fight and as Gunnfodder got up and charged him. And as soon as the pony reached him he grabbed the flame thrower off his back and punched him in the back of the head closes-lining him and making him smash face first on the ground. Putting the incinerator on his back he raised his hands to counter the punches that the stallion was throwing. Then he punched him in the chest grabbed his collar, pulled his head down and kneed the trooper in the face, then turning around then he delivered a back kick to the trooper sending him flying towards a wall.

Pulling put the incinerator he aimed at Gunnfodder who had regained control and flew to the side behind a statue as the torrent of flames hit. But then the incinerator ran out of fuel. Tacking advantage of this Gunnfodder pulled out his pistol and fired at quann who took the shots but then the incinerators fuel tank got hit setting it on fire.

Turning around he was abel to dodge coopers slashes but the incinerator was knocked away and exploded. Quann quickly morphed his arms to the claws and using his size to his advantage he grabbed Coopers blades and threw him at Gunnfodder who rolled to the side and started firing again with his pistol. Quann pressed a button on his wrist pad and the ground next to him exploded launching up some strange weapon riffle neither Cooper or Gunnfodder had ever seen before and put it on his back and locked at them.

“You two will have to do better than that.” Quann said Jumping onto the roof of a near buy building and ran off in the direction of the castel.

“Come on Gunnfodder after him.” Cooper said morphing his wings back to normal and the two flew into the air and took off after Quann who was leaving a red trail behind him as he jumped from building to building, street to wall and back to roof in some weird parkor.

Throne room

“You wont get away with this! Twilight and her friends will…” cadence started when the door was thrown open revealing twilight and the others the troopers having run out of ammo.

"How the Fuck did we Lose!?" Frost yelled.

"When one of the chaingelings through a head out a window like a ball and Jack went after it." Heart stop said.

“You were saying?” Chrysalis asked over her sholder to cadence.

“You do realize the reception has been canceled don’t you?” She asked Twilight sarcastically

“Go feed!” She said to the other chainglings and they flew away. Then Heart stop saw something and turned to DOC.

“Hay look up there. Do you think you can get them down?” She wisped gesturing to the roof.

“Ill try.” He said taking out his pistol and fired two shots at the princesses pods cutting them down and quickly they were moved with the others and DOC’s pistol thrown out a window by a changeling.

“Sorry twi we should have listened to you.” Apple kack said

“Its alright she fooled every pony.”

“Hm I did didn’t i?” She said walking over to a window singing and watching the changelings wreak havoc on the ponies of canterlot.

And in the mene time Cadence was abel to free Shining armor from Chrysalis’s spell.

“Your spell use your spell!” Twilight said. but shining armor could not preform the spell.

“My love will give you strength.” Cadence said

“What is That thing look!” A random pony yelled pointing out the window and every pony saw something they have never seen before standing in front of the castle with Reaper and Gunnfodder who had there backs to the castel.

=======

Quann pulled out a detonator and Cooper turned to Gunngfodder as Quann pushed the button.

“is that a?...” Cooper started as he Gunnfodder and the ponies in the thrown room heard a three beeps and one long one.

‘beep…beep...beep…beeeeep’

‘BOOM’

“Run!” cooper yelled

A large protion of the castle exploded. And started falling toward the three as Cooper and Gunnfodder charged Quann. Looking up he saw where he was supposed to be and dodged a piece of debris that landed between him and cooper who stood on his hind hooves and kicked it at him. He back flipped over it as three more pieces of the castle landed and cooper and Gunnfodder ran up the ones on the left and right and quann jumped on the one in the middle while Cooper was shooting at him running up one on the right. Quann Jumped off the rock he was on and kicked gunnfodder hard enough to send him in to the throne room landed on one higher and jumped off of that one and grabbed the ledge on the same floor as the throne room.

“What is That thing?” Twilight asked. None of them ever have gotten a good look at it.

“That Twilight sparkle is my fiancée and general.”Chyrsalis said smugly.

“Look out!” They heard and they turned to see Gunnfodder flying towards them only to be caught with Mech’s magic.

“Thanks man.” He said to his fellow trooper.

“What is that thing Mister?” Sweety bell asked

“I don’t know kid. But the searge sure does.” He said As they saw Cooper fly into the same place the ‘monster’ went.

Music end

“Whats wrong Cooper?” Quann taunted as he and cooper locked wing blades to blade arm.

“Why are you doing this?” Cooper yelled as he dodged a hammer fist from quanns left hand.

“To prove once and for all im better than you. And for my fiancée.”he said but finished kind of off offhandedly.

“fiancée? Who?” Cooper asked as his blades were blocked again by quann.

“Chrysalis that’s who.” Quann said as he changed his right arm into a hammer fist too and smashed his fists to the ground unleashing a torrent of spikes toward cooper

“You are doing this for her! She wants to take over equestria!” Cooper said. dodging the spikes as they receded and quann turned his arms back to normal.

“I will talk her out of that plan and make peace between our two nations but in order to do that I will have to marry chrysalis. And besides I love her just as mutch as Twilight and Rarity.” Quann explained as they stared each other down.

“Well I guess that makes scence but what about the ponies that died today!?” Cooper yelled

“There were none... That i know of. No ponies were killed by the changelings but there were changelings killed by ponies or are you forgetting the ones you killed?” Quann said

“I guess you are right. But what now?” Cooper said.

“We finish what I started. Ive been wanting to try something knew out. We go until one of us cant go any more.” Quann said

“ 'sigh' Fine then Lets go.” The pony evolved said.

“Come on Cooper or should I call you Reaper lets see witch race is better ponies of humans. Test your might!” Quann said. As he charged cooper smashing him through a wall tearing the end of the ribbon on his armored collar a tiny bit.

"This isn't Mortal Kombat Ass wagon!" Cooper shouted before he hit the ground.

Cooper quickly rolled to his hooves and used his blades to block a downwards strike from quann. And tackle his friend threw a another wall witch happened to be the maine hall. Acting quickly Quann grabbed Cooper and threw him further down the hall. Getting up he reached behind him he took out his gift from his fiancée and charged cooper who was getting up with the chainsaw.

“What the fuck!?” Cooper thought when he stood up and barly had time to dodge to the side as quann cut a piece of debris with a fucking chainsaw.

“That’s just not fair!” Cooper said as he jumped back up and blocked the chainsaw with his blades causing sparks to fly.

“No seriously who the fuck puts a chainsaw on a riffle!” he continued then he jumped to the side behind a pillar with Quann doing the same.

Soon the two were exchanging fire with M4 and Lancer even cutting a few changelings down in the crossfire. Then all of a sudden the fireing stoped and cooper decided to peak out.

“Where the fuck did he go?” he asked throwing his forelegs to the sides. It was to quiet and then he heard the sound of heavy boot steps.

Then all of a sudden the door to his right burst open revealing Qaunn charging him chainsaw raised over his shoulder screaming. Cooper was able to dodge to the side as his friend brought down the chain bayonet then he heard another scream followed by a shower of blood and when he looked back he saw that Quann was chain sawing a Changeling on half. Both screaming as the blade went through.

“Ugh I got some on me.” Quann said as he stood back up absorbing the blood into him.

“Hay cooper?” he said reaching behind him.

“What?” Cooper asked.

“I wouldn’t stand there.” Quann said pointing at the floor pushing a button

“Why no…”

‘beep…beep…beeeeep’

“Oh you fucking Dick!” cooper was able to say

“Boom”

=============================

Every pony was scared when they heard the sounds of the fight heading there way from the bangs and crashes and a sickening reeving of some kind then a scream that scared them all to the bone. Everyone even chrysalis was weary because she had never actually seen Raptor fight.

“Princess what is that horrible noise?” Rarity asked celestia. Asking about the sound of the reeving.

“I don’t know Rarity. I really don’t know.” She ansewerd.

“Well whatever it is it is comeing this way!” Rainbow Dash said as a pony smashed through the wall.

They all gasped when they saw it was Cooper. Nopony expected whatever it was to be this powerful to actually blast him through a wall. Then they Saw him spring up and onto his hind hooves and face the door. It still unnerved them how him and Raptor were able to do it so naturally.

‘BANG’

They all turned to see the monster standing in the door way with some wicked looking weapon in its hands at the door. And Finally they all got a good look at just who Chrysalises fiancée was. The first thing other than the weapon in its hands were the clothes it had on which earned a gasp from every pony because he was dressed in the same armor as the Blackwatch troopers. But on him it looked even more terrifying. Then they saw it had no hair on the top of its head and the rest was just brown skin but all they could see was its head and its fingerless gloves. Then they saw his goggles and they saw they weren’t the same as the regular troopers goggles instead of blue these were red and more of a visor and they saw no gasmask. Then they saw him take off his goggles and throw them in twilights direction who caught them. Then a gust of wind picked up and they saw the red ribbon tied to its armored collar flow in the breeze. Making Apple bloom know who it was right away and run up and hug his leg.

“Raptor!” She yelled as she and the other crusaders ran up to him.

“no it cant be?” Celestia said and her comment was quickly followed by others.

“That’s the LT!?” came the other troopers.

“He’s alive?” Shining armor, Rainbow dash, Fluttershy and Applejack said.

“No it cant be twilight he’s alive!” Rarity said to Twilight who was in just as mutch shock as her.

“That’s raptor?” Their parents said to each other.

Quann looked down at his leg and put his Lancer on his back and crouched down with a smile but do to his size he was still taller than them.

“Hay girls. I see you made it.” He said patting them on the head.

“Ya they said somthin bad happened to ya” Applebloom said

“Hay relax girls im fine. Actually ive never been Better. Im back to being human again Woo!” Quann said throwing his arms up at the end and then looking up.

“Sup?” Quann asked looking up raising a finger.

“Sup. SUP! You are gone for a week, and when you finaly come back you have a fiancée who crashed my weeding and look like this and all you have to saw for yourself is… sup!?” Cadence yelled.

“Oh im sorry.” Quann said holding his hand up.

“Whats up? Is that better?” he continued. Earning a growl from cadence.

“I think shes mad girls.” Quann whispered to the crusaders.

“Go back to your sisters girls. I have business to attend to.” Quann said and they left.

“Every body. This l will explain later and maybe we can live in peace. Twilight.” Quann said tacking out his lancer and reloading it.

“yes put on the goggles and think recording beta.” Quann instructed and threw his goggles to twilight.

“ok. I guess?” She said looking in celestias direction earning a nod from her she did as asked. And started watching the recording. But while that was going on.

“Now where was I?” Quann said tacking a step forward.

"Oh yes your ass beating." he said.

“Raptor lets finish this.” Cooper said

“oooh scary.” Quann said. But it wasn’t the what he said but the way he said it that scared every pony in the room even Chrysalis. Quann put the lancer on the ground and widened his stance and moved his right fist parallel to his face and his left parallel to his left leg. (James Hellers Idal animation pretty much)

Natural selection

And they both sprinted toward each other and when fist met hoof they could all hear the thud. Grabing coopers right hoof Quann went to knee him but Cooper saw this coming and twisted his body to dodge and pumped so much bio mass into his legs that they could see the tendrils and Bucked quann in the chest. making Human evolved stumble back a little shocking them because that should have sent him flying Not even Big Mac could Buck as hard as cooper.

“Ha don’t make me laugh.” Quann said

“Lets try this!” Cooper yelled as he flew at him and started a barrage of punches witch Quann ether blocked absorbed or dodged. Finally he started spinning around but knowing what he was going to do he kicked him mid spin sending him flying.

‘here goes nothing’ Quann thought.

They were all amazed and sadden by the fight they were watching. One because they had never seen anypony fight like this and second because they were watching two friends fighting and that was never good. Then they saw Raptor Kick reaper sending him flying but then they saw him reach his arm out and then they saw what looked like a spike attached to a black and red vine shoot the bottom of his wrist towards Reaper who had just landed and was standing up. And they saw the spike pierce into his chest with a loud thud. Then they heard Quann shout something as he pulled Reaper towards him.

“Come here!” they all heard him shout has he pulled.

And as Reaper he reached him Raptor delivered a devastating uppercut to his jaw sending him flying And shattering his gasmask. They saw Cooper use his wings to break and stop himself in the air and he flew back at Quann who was waiting. When he reached him he started throwing punches again then he rolled over a punch that quann through.

‘perfect’ cooper thought.

‘shunk’

They all heard and they saw Quann kick Cooper away so hard he skied on the floor. Looking back they screamed at what they saw especially Chrysalis, Twilight who had just finished the message and had told celestia, and Rarity. They saw Raptor hunched over with his right arm missing from the shoulder down bleeding profusely with the dismembered arm on the ground at his feet twitching. They saw him look up at cooper.

“WHAT THE FUCK!?” Quann yelled making the elements cover the crusaders ears. And just as Twilight finished the log in time to see this and quickly move to talk to celestia.

“What!?” cooper yelled back

“You fucking cut off my arm you fucking prick!” Quann screamed.

“HOW THE FUCK!?”

“Easy I stopped fighting like a human and started fighting like a pony.” Cooper said. with a smirk.

“huh. Well then lets turn this up a notch.” Quann said finally calming down with the most serious voice they have ever heard.

“What does he mean. He only has one arm why doesn’t he just stop?” Cadence asked.

“I don’t know Cadence.” Shining said

“Because it will take more than this to make Raptor stop fighting.” Rarity said

Then they all saw Quanns body coverd in black and read tendrils from head to toe and when they stoped they saw that quann had regrown his arm. Looking down he picked up his other arm and absorbed it. Then looking out a window he saw a random changeling about to mount some mare. He Shot his spare at him and it stuck into his back and he pulled back tacking the changeling with it the mare looked up towards him with thank full eyes and scurried away. But when the Changeling reached him They all saw what he shot his spear at but what they went prepared for was when he reared back and punched the changeling threw the chest exiting the other side and they saw the changeling’s body break down in black and red tendrils and be absorbed into Raptors body.

‘ok that is a stupid attack’ Quann thought

“Cant beat me Raptor.” Cooper said

“Well see.”

‘ooh ya those could help’ quann thought as he received the biomass of the changeling.

Quann spun around and sprinted towards while turning his arms to the claws towards Cooper who was ready and already had his blades out. And When he was about to reach him they all saw Quann disappear in a flash of green energy.

“What the Fuck!” Cooper shouted.

“What happened!? He could never teleport before.” Twilight asked.

“Well from what the LT has told me about Cooper and himself. Every time they kill somepony and absorb there biomass which is what Raptor just did. They will gains that ponies skills and abilities. And From what I gather he gained that changelings ability to use magic to a base extent. Be careful sir.” Doc explaind.

“Hay I have a plan ill be back.” They heard Mech say as he ran off.

Just then they heard yelling and they saw Reaper dive to the side as Raptor stabbed his claws into the ground stand up and deliver a powerful kick to Raptors side sending him crashing into the wall. Cooper quickly pulled out a grenade and threw it at Quann who had just hit the wall. “Oh Fuck!” they heard quann shout as the grenade went off but then they saw him disappear in another green flash. But they didn’t have to wait long to find out where he went because they saw him reappear and retrieve his Lancer.

‘Time to feal some pain bitch.’ Quann thought sa he pulled the weapon from the ground and leveled it.

The Shockjock, Frost and Gunnfodder looked at each other and nodded.

“What are you planning to do?” Celestia asked as Shockjock looked towards her over his shoulder.

“To even the odds ma’am. Please tell Princess cadence that whatever she was going to do now's her chance.” He said as they all readied there weapons. And ran to Coopers side.

“Do you see what your plan has done Queen?” Celestia said to Chrysalis

“I never wanted or imagined that this would happen. I just wanted to find food for my Chainglings.” She answerd

“Well as mutch as I am not inclined to believe you I did see the recording so I have to. And we will try to work something out. But you will be imprisoned for your crimes.” Celestia said as they watched the troopers fire at Raptor.

“What do you think you all are doing?” He asked

“Buying them some time and helping you out sir.” Frost said

“I think I can go another round.” Gunnfodder said.

“Alright then lets do this. Let’s show him what us ponies can do.” Cooper said as he and and the others leveled there weapons and fired and frost Launched a fire ball at Quann who just took a knee while keeping his bruteshot leveled with a look of concentration and they could see black and red tendril move all over his body and what looked like red smoke.

‘Critical mass’

Then it happened as the arrows, bullets, and fire reached him a bubble of green energy appeared around him like shining armors shield. And the projectiles and spells exploded agenized the shield creating a smoke cloud as the grenades and fireball exploded obscuring him from view.

But before they could react they saw Quann springing out of the smoke cloud and start firing his Weapon at Cooper who was abel to dodge two but the last three hit at his hooves propelling him into the air and as Quann reached them he put his bruteshot back on his back having reloaded it, jumped and delivered a devastating spin kick to coopers side sending him slamming into the alter interrupting Cadence and Shinings spell.

Spinning around Quann was met with the three troopers facing him to close to use their weapons.

“Alright lets see what the three of you have got." Quann said

“ok guys we can take him. So Fodder how about you flank left…” Shock Jock started only for him to run ahead and getting kicked in the chest and thrown back.

“Ok then. Frost lets stick together a…” and again Frost charged in and got the same treatment as Fodder.

“Whats the story!? Am I the only one on this team who knows how to talk?” Shock Jock asked throwing up his fore hooves looking at the fallen Frost who was getting back up.

“I don’t think talking’s your problem.” He heard Raptor/Quann say

“Oh no!” He said as he threw a punch at Quanns face only for him to duck to the left and punch him in the chest sending him back.

Standing up Quann kneed Frost in the face making him fall back down. Spinning to his left he punched Gunnfodder in the mask to dodge a stabbing punch, he quickly followed up with a punch to the chest then a punch to the right ribs, but the Pegasus recovered quickly and bucked Quann who had crossed his arms to block the buck that was followed by a powerful punch that broke his guard making him take a step back, and as the Pegasus threw a another punch that quann ducked under and lifted him up on hid back and tossed him into the air and as he came back down he kicked Fodder sending him crashing into Frost. As he landed he was forced to side step punch from Shock Jock who being an earth pony has more strength than the other two.

Quann threw a punch with his right only for him to redirect it further to the right as he threw another punch at the humans head who weaved under it to the left and threw a another punch at the earthpony who raised his fore hooves to cover his face and blocked the punch but couldn’t block the second punch that Quann threw to his stomach witch made him wretch forward with Qaunn back to him who quickly turned and elbowed him in the side of the head with his left and turned around and punched him in the chest with his right sending him slamming to the ground and kicked him into the pile of the other two troopers.

Quickly switching to the hammer fists he spun to the left and back fisted Cooper who came flying towards him. And then around to the right and punched him in the side sending him into a wall through several walls. And turned back to the other three troopers who stood back up.

“Ok guys that obviously didn’t work so well. How about this time we stay in formation a…” Shock Joch started only for Frost and Gunngfodder to run off again.

“Damn it I can’t believe I volunteered door this crap.” He sighed at the end and ran off to catch up.

As onlookers watched the first to reach Quann was Gunnfodder who threw a powerful punch at quann who raised his hands and blocked the punch and kicked him in the ribs but unlike last time he didn’t go flying having braced himself he only stumbled back as Frost ran past him to throw a punch but before he could even throw it he Quann punched him in the face sending him careening to the floor. Then Shock Jock was up next and as he reached Quann he threw a front kick that the human deflected, and as his hoof touched the ground he tried to throw a left hook. Witch Quann around and countered by elbowing him with his right arm letting the hoof hit his back, but as his elbow neared Shock Jock blocked the incoming elbow. Quann spun back around he threw a left punch that Shock dodged and blocked with his left hoof, Seeing his chance he grabbed the earth ponies leg and punched him in the back making the earthpony roll over his knee and onto the ground.

“Celestia?” Chrysalis asked as they all watched.

“Yes?” She answerd still more engrossed in the fight.

“This is…. just sad.” She said with Genuine concern in her voice. With a hint of laughter.

“For once Chrysalis… I agree with you.” The princess of the sun said

Immediately dropping to that knee and same knee he sweep kicked Gunnfodder who tried to punch him in the back knocking him to the ground glancing over his shoulder Quann eminently rolled onto his back and tucking his legs in and using his arms to brace he jump kicked Shock Jock who had gotten back up and like Fooder tried a sneak attack. The kick landed square in his bottom jaw again making him stumble back in pain and grunt. As Quann kicked he landed on his knees and punched Gunnfodder who threw another punch in the chest making him stumble. Standing back up he weaved into a left hook thrown by Frost dodging it and using his momentum he rolled over him using as a platform he rolled over top of him, When Quanns feet touched the floor he stood up and reared as Frost turned to try to throw a punch but before the unicorn’s punch could land Quann delivered an uppercut sending him over Shock Jock who reared back to throw a left jab but before he could Quann kicked him in the left sholder making him stumble around him.

Quickly Quann was barley able to dodge a downwards punch slash from Gunnfodder as he dodged he drawback and uppercuted the Pegasus making him crash to the ground. Quann brought his hands down and blocked a kick from Shock Jock who then tried to throw a left hook that quann ducked and rolled behind him and punched the earth pony in the ribs as his fore hoof was still being held above him, letting go of Shock Jocks hoof he moved it to block a punch from Frost and punch him in the face and kick him in the side then kick Shock in the side of the head and still without putting his leg done he kicked Fodder in the chest as he tried to throw a punch.

“Look there doing it. There working as a team.” Rainbow said

“Rainbow’s right they might do it their not letting up.” Twilight agreed as they saw Quann duck under a punck from Frost and to shoot up to block a punch behind his back thrown by Shock Jock with an Lblock with his right arm and punch Frost in the face again with his left.

“They have him surrounded. Now they’ve got him.” Shining armor said having been released form chrysalises spell.

Then they saw the human use the arm he blocked with to punch Frost in the face and push a punch behind him that was thrown by Shock Jock, as Gunnfodder threw an uppercut with his right Quann threw a punch with is left and grabbed the earthponies hoof pulling it up as said pony his hoof back Quann punched Frost in the right shoulder making him turn. Dropping into a crouch Quann blocked a kick from Shock as he elbowed fodder in the stomach then stood back up and punched Shock Jock in the throught, turned and blocked a punch thrown by Shock Jock, ducked under another punch and as the pegasus tried to throw a another punch and upercutted Shock Jock as he stood up making him go airborne backwards and fall on his face. Then he brought his hands up and blocked a jump kick from Frost as Fodder came up and started to throw a punch as Frost spun and threw another kick that Quann ducked and dropped to a knee under and they all saw and heard Gunnfodder punch Frost in the face making him spin daisesd. Then they saw Quann jump into the aid between them with his left arm and leg cocked as Fodder looked up as Quann punched Frost in the back of the head as he kicked Fodder in the face. And as he landed they all saw Shock Jock trying to stand up and turn to see Quann take a few strides jump and spin kick him in the face as he tried to throw a punch making him crash to the ground as and before his feet touched the ground he spun around and kicked cooper who had come flying at him into Shock Jock but not before slashing him across the chest.

Music end

The two ponies bounced to a stop between Frost and Gunnfodder who were struggling to stand up but eventually the four of them did.

“How are we supposed to beat him? He’s too powerful.” Gunnfodder asked.

“Like I said before. We stop fighting like humans and start fighting like ponies use our strengths agenized him. Now lets go.” Cooper said. and they charged again Gunnfodder and himself tacking to the air while Shock Jock galloped forward followed by Frost who was charging a spell.

Seeing this Quann drew his lancer and blocked a high speed kick from Gunnfodder with his free hand but when he went to punch he was bucked in the legs by Shock Jock as Cooper slammed into him sending him crashing to the ground but he useh his arms as a spring board to propel himself to his feet and to the base of the alter. Then they all saw him croutch and as Gunnfodder made another dash at him. And Jump into the air towards them and when he was close enough he changed his position in the aid and spring boarded off of the pegasies back and toward towards Frost only to be tackled in midair by Cooper who had seen this coming and slamed him to the ground making him drop his lancer which Frost picked it up.

“Shock Jock Catch!” Doc shouted throwing the pistol cooper cave him to his fellow trooper who caught it.

And as they both hit the ground they saw Cooper throw a right hook witch Quann spun around and tried to land a punch of his own only for his arm to be grabbed and pushed out of the way, Cooper then turned him around and delivered a vicious series quick stabs with his blades before pushing Quann to Gunnfodder who had drown an actual knife and as Quann stumbled to him he quickly pushed his head down and stabbed the knife into his back leaving it in he spun quann around and kicked him towards Shock Jock and as he reached him Raptor tried to throw a punch but is was two slow and week so the bronze earthpony ducked under it and pushed it to the side and punched quann in the side and when he tried to return the punch Shock Jock pushed his arm above him and shot him and threw him over his shoulder to the ground and when quann tried to get up Shock stepped on his chest and shot him ten times in the thought.

Earnings screams form Twilight, Rarity, and Chrysalis and all the rest. But when he started to see the tendrils appear he quickly bucked him over to Frost and about half way there quann was able to stand up using the momentum of the kick. Levitating the lancer with Frost was able to dodge a very sloppy punch and he quickly stabbed the weapon threw quanns Chest and reeving the blade. Acting quickly he levitated the human and threw him into the alter knowing that stares fucking hurt. And when he reached them he slammed into them so had it blew the lancer out of his chest. Every pony present catherd around the body of Raptor.

“Im… not.” Quann said as he tried to sit up but he failed and laid back down with a guttural sigh.

“Why?” Twilight asked

“What have I done?” Chrysalis asked herself seeing her Fiancée on the ground. And Celsetia levitated Goggels on his face a spark coming off of her horn to the goggles so that the fillies didn’t have to see his eyes.

“Cadence, shining armor. Do it… get this over with.” Cooper said standing over his fallen friend tacking off his goggles. As The two finished there spell and a large pink heart appeared around them and got bigger and bigger then they saw some of the heard turn to dust and fly into raptor. Then they saw a flash of green fire and when they looked towards they saw Raptor in his pony form lying on his back still motion less. Then they saw his whole body erupt into a mass of Black and red tendrils.

‘Un known energy source detected.’

‘Energy recharge initiated’

‘warning: Quann R. Barnes. User health critical.’

‘Nano suit deactivated via blackwatch after transfer. Overriding deactivation.’

‘Warning: unknown virus detected. Scanning.’

‘Virus fused with central nerves system. unable to eradicate.’

‘Scanning user DNA. DNA recognized equine.’

‘combining DNA. Beginning Assimilation. Minimizeing viral effect.’

‘primary systems: activated.’

‘secondary systems: activated’

‘Warning unknown exterior power surge detected.’

‘cortex broadcasting. Playing message 1 external speakers activated.’

‘Date received unknown. Sender callsign Prophet’

Every pony looked at the body of Raptor as the tendrils receded and the goggles started glowing. Then they all stepped back in fear as they saw Raptors horn flow crimson and make a large bubble over his body. And they all looked at it was coverd in strange symbols they didn’t understand. Then they heard a mechanical voice say ‘playing journal entry 7 six alpha audio recording’ then they heard raptors voice but when they looked down they saw that hasn’t talking. Then they looked back to the sphere.

“This is a message to anyone who still has an active Nano suit now or in the future. Don’t make the same mistakes I did.” They heard the voice say in a voice that was almost like Raptors only deeper than they have heard almost older.

“23 years ago. The alien Ceph invaded our world we stopped them… I stopped them”

“But the Cell corporation seized the opportunity stepped into the power vacuum quickly growing in size and influence to the brink of world domination… Cell took us all by surprise even me.”

“They call me Prophet and im the only one who knows what’s coming Cell are not the real threat to our world. The most powerful alien the alpha Ceph still lives.” The recording paused for a bit.

“Celestia what is he talking about what are the ceph?” Chrysalis asked.

“I donk now Queen? Reaper?” She asked.

“No he never mentioned it to me.” Cooper said as the Recording started up again.

“He showed me a glimpse of the future.” They all heard

“He knows what drives me. What I believe.” He said making every one wander whet that is then they saw some text appeared on the ball before the recording continued.

“That being a good solder comes down to one thing. To one single question.”

“well what is it?” Rainbow asked

“What are you… prepared to sacrifice?” he said then they saw the ball filled with a picture of what looked like another dark-skinned human bring a gun to his temple.

“Remember me.” He said as they saw him pull the trigger. But then the message continued and the picture changed to some kind of armor.

“When they came to me with the Nano suit… I sacrificed Laurence. Barnes the man I was to become Prophet. And when my own flesh and blood held me back… I sacrificed that two… Replaced it like a spare part. Sacrificing my link to my family, my wife… my kid.” He said as the picture faded and was replaced with three strange dog tags.

“Victory costs. Every time you pay a little more. I saw a glimpse of what’s coming… and there was nothing of me left to stop it.” The message paused again and before they could say anything saw something out of their worst night mare. They saw the whole ball become white and the next thing they saw was some big monster facing them and they saw something raise a bow and draw back.

“This is for Raptor team you sun of a bitch.” They heard Prophet say and there was another flash of light and when it died down they saw him holding onto a rock as other things were being sucked into the sky.

“Michael! Michael get the hell out of there.” They heard him say to a human in some form of crashed airship.

“Im trapped this fucking harness is stuck.” They heard another voice say as he let go of the rock and flew toward the airship and grabbed a ledge at the cockpit.

“Michael! Hold on. Ill get you out.” He said as the hatch was torn off by the wind revealing a pail skinned human with a shaved head. Holding onto the harness.

“There’s no time! Were to late! there through!” Michel said reaching with his left hand.

“I’m goanna get you out of there!” Raptor said and they saw him slip a little and triy to pull his way to his friend a only to not be able to make it and just hold on.

“Prophet! Barnes hold on!” Michael yelled reaching for him with his free hand while Raptor tried to reach with his right hand.

“Michael the suit…. I can’t…” They heard him say.

“Damn it. Barnes it was never just about the suit! Think about your wife and kid!” Michal yelled but at the end Raptor lost his grip.

“Barnes!” They heard

“BARNES!” They heard Michal yell one last time before there view went white then black.

“What are you… prepared to sacrifice?” they heard before they saw the message end.

“One wrecked mission. Was all it took to send me from Cryops the best in the US military to blackwatch where I met Cooper again. But l lost some good friends that day. But I came out a better man because of it.” They heard Raptor say and then the sphere changed again and they were looking form Raptors point of view as a scene played out on the sphere.

cuba. 15 years ago

“Boxer, Scortch prepare to breach.” They heard Raptor say as he lay on a hill overlooking some kind of secured building and they saw two other humans hearing Nano suits standing buy a door.

“got it boss.” They heard one of them say as he put two fingers to the side of his head.

“Zulu. This is Mongol.” They heard another voice say then they saw Raptor move two of his fingers up.

“Go-ahead Mongol.”

“Twilight and I are in position.”

“ok. Lets do this.” Raptor said.

then the screen changed and they saw the building on fire and one of the humans running toward Raptor.

“I got the data boss. But scortch didn’t make it.” He said giving raptor a dog tag.

“Come on we have to meet up with twilight and Mongol.” Raptor said.

“Don’t you even care!?” Boxer yelled.

“Whether I care or not is irrelevant. Let’s go.” Raptor said

“ill tell you one thing Zulu Scorch was write about you. You might as well be a fucking machine. Because you sure as hell aint no human being any more.” Boxer responded.

“What?” Quann said.

“I mean you never were much good at it to begin with but Jesus Christ!” Boxer said

“Lets get going.” Quann said

The scene changed again to a clearing in s forest where they saw two other humans in Nano-suits.

“Where’s Scortch?” they saw one of them ask raptor.

“he didn’t make it we had to leave the building. Twilight.” Raptor said.

“damn it.” He said

“well lets ju….” Twilight said before a bullet tore thought his helmet and out of his head.

“Damn it get down.” Raptor said taking the tags and diving behind a log as bullets hit. And they saw Mongol firing some shots over the log followed by Raptor who fired a few bursts from his riffle at the incoming soldiers before taking cover again and looking over to Boxer getting a nod from him.

“Fall back. Extraction is on the way.” Raptor order.

“I’m not leaving him here sir!” they heard moon say taking his mask and visor off.

“We don’t have a choice soldier we will be over run.” Raptor said putting a hand on his shoulder.

“Everyone has a choice. And mine is to stay here you two go ill cover you.” He said.

Turning to Boxer who nodded.

“Alright. Nice knowing you it’s been an honor.” Raptor said

“Barnes Go!” Mongol said as he stood up and began firing as Raptor and Coin began sprinting into the forest.

The scene changed again to a beach and they saw Raptor press a button sawing something about incineration.

“What the Fuck! was that Zulu!” Boxer said

“No choice. Following orders.” they all heard Raptor say

“NO choice… Just doing what your? told just following orders? Who the Fuck does that Sound like Zulu?”

“I mean look at you now!” they saw Boxer yell at him.

“We all have to make sacrifices.” Raptor countered

“You had a choice mate. Everyone has a choice.” Boxer returned taking a few steps away.

“I told you everything I knew and everything you needed to know. You have been with me for years. Since the beginning.” Raptor said making Boxer reach into a poutch and pull something out.

“Remember these?” Boxer said holding up six dog tags and throwing them to Raptor who caught them.

“Two squads. All the men who died under your command because you were just ‘following orders’ Because you had no choice.”

“Boxer i.” Raptor tried to say

“No, mate. You take that suit of yours and you go fight your own battles… like always.” Boxer finished

And soon they all saw two airships come and pick them up. But as they flew over the water they saw an explosion on Raptors and Boxer airship and it caught fire. And they saw Raptor look at the other airship and back to Boxer going noticed by him because he was busy shooting down other missiles that were coming towards the airship.

And with one final look they saw him make the decision a decision that finally the raptor they know would make. He went up to Coin and snatched his dog tags off of him making him turn around.

“Hay what the hell are you doing?”

“I’ve lost enough men today I won’t lose another. One last sacrifice.” He said

“What the hell are you talking about?” Boxer asked.

“This.” Raptor said as he grabbed him by the arm and threw him into the other airship that had gotten closer to allow the crew to jump board. And when Boxer was in the ship pulled away.

“I have to make sure at least one suit makes it out.”

“Damn it Barnes it was never just about the suit!” Boxer yelled

“I know. Boxer. Nathan you’re the last of Alicorn team now. Good luck.” They heard Raptor say thinking seeing the irony in his old team being called alicorn team and he is an alicorn now.

“Ill see you on the other side.” They all heard Raptor say.

“Thanks boss. And for what it’s worth Barnes I take it back.” Boxer said as more missiles impacted the airship Raptor was in and everything went black and the last thing they heard.

“BAaaaaaaaarnes!”

‘Boom’

Equestria

Then the sphere turned black again with smoke and fire raising.

“When I joined Delta ops and they came to me with the Nano suit I was Quann R. Barnes and became Zulu…” he said his voice echoing and they saw other faces flash across the screen saying zulu.

“… one of the greatest tactical combat machines the world has ever known…” he said followed by the faces again

‘You might as well be a fucking machine.’ They heard Coin say

“But when you’ve sacrificed everything you had to become a perfect, cold, hard, logical machine, and that machine fails what happens then?” they heard him say in a sad tome as images of twilight, Rarity, Chrysalis, and Cadence flashed on the orb and dissipated. Going back to the other view.

‘Barnes Go!’ they heard Mongol say

‘Raptor I need your help’ they all heard and saw twilight ask from back before Nightmare night

‘cooool’ they saw the first time Sweety Bell saw raptor.

‘Everyone has a choice.’ They saw Mongol again

“When Raptor fails… what’s left?” They heard Quann say

‘You have something… Zulu you are a Prophet. Just like your fatha.’ They heard and saw an elderly face flesh across the screen

‘Come along Raptor, no time for dilly-dallying’ they saw Rarity

‘Raptor!’ they saw celestia

‘You’re not going any ware Quann you understand me!?’ they heard as cooper flashed across

‘it is good to finally have a cousin that isn’t rude.’ They herd as cadences face passed

‘…And that’s something no one else will never have or understand.’ They heard the old voice again

‘Tell them yourself.’ They heard cooper again

‘No ponies ever actually cared about me before!’ they heard Chrysalis and saw as her face pass buy on the sphere and they could see she was crying when she passed.

‘It was never just about the suit!’ They heard Nathan say as a picture of him and Alicorn team appeared then changed to a picture of him with all of them.

‘And for what its worth Barnes I take it back.’

‘Raaaptor!’ They all heard from a voice that sounded like their voices combined.

‘Baaaaaaarnes!’ Was the last thing they heard as the sphere went black.

“no Raptor. Pleas.” Rarity pleaded.

Then all of a sudden they could see Prophet walking towards them with the background black and with smoke and some embers.

“Hay dead man. I’ve been watching you. And I’ve got to say I’m proud son. That was some trip huh? What thought I gone? Well I thought so to. But Hargrave was right, it’s the suit son the suit changes all the rules.” He said he said with a smirk

“They got inside me the ceph they got inside. You see son I had to break the link to the suit or loose control for good.”

“You were able to protect two races and I’ll tell you what man that’s something even, I wasn’t able to do” He said as six hexagons appeared and a bar appeared on the bottom and went to the right changing from red to white and they heard the Robotic voice say.

“Assimilation complete.”

And as soon that was said a brilliant white specks millions of them erupted form Quanns body covering him from site.

And by chance Caadence and shining armor just finished there spell. And they saw the sphere appear turn glow white brighter and brighter until then finally there was a blinding lite as a Pink shockwave followed by what looked like a white cloud spared throughout the capital blasting most of the evil changelings out of the city or vaporizing them, leaving only chrysalis and the good ones inside the city.

“You see it may not seem like it. But we won here today but I’ve seen what’s in store for you son. And this thing isn’t even close to over.” They all heard as they were almost blinded by flash of light.

“This nation… equestira it needs a hero not Zulu it needs… a Prophet. So prince Raptor we don’t get to die just yet…”

“you’ve got to back, back where your needed.” They all heard. Then they heard the sound of hurrying hooves and the wine of engines.

“Princess luna we have come to aid you!” Captain Ultra Magnus said before noticeing the pony standing up in the center of the room being an alicorn he bowed immediately. And mech who had flown the V-tol there to disarm the missels.

“Im so sorry sir. Allow me to introduce myself Ultra Magnus captain of the Lunar guard at your servos. And um you are” they heard him say and when they finally opened their eyes. There standing on his hind hooves on top of the alter with the sun at his back his Blackwatch armor changed what was once cloth all on the armor was now blue armor plating in some parts the ribbon Applebloom gave him and the hood still remaining. His Goggles glowed a brilient red with black and with the Nano suit rebreathe device.

“Are you fucking stupid?” Quann asked earning a grumble from the guard captain.

“It cant me. It’s a miracle.” Were the unanimous statements made by the previous occupants of the room looking that the alicorn before them?

His mask and goggles disappeared and pulled down his hood and they all saw his pink eyes glowing with what looked like blue slits in there pink coloring, and as a small gust of wind blew his mane making it and the ribbon flow in the wind.

“Doc, heart stop. I want you to get out there and administer medical attention.” He said trotting forward levitating the Lancer onto his back.

“Mech, and Shock jock I want you to go to ponyville and see if they can spare a few doctors and get them back here as fast as possible”

“Reaper and Gunnfodder go help the wonderbolts and the guards get started on repairing the damage done in the attack and get rid of the bodies.”

“And Frost you stay with the princess.” He said

“Um witch one.” Frost asked making Quann sigh.

“I don’t fucking care pick one.” He said seeing that none of his troops were moving.

“Well What the hell are you waiting for an invitation? Get moving!” he yelled causing them to run off to do there assigned jobs but not before Cooper stopped in front of quann.

“Its good to have you back to your old self again quann.” He said.

“Cooper for what it’s worth I’m sorry.” Quann said.

“Its alright man.” Cooper said putting a hoof on Quanns shoulder piece

“Cooper get back to work.” Quann said

“Got it boss. Hay Gunnfodder lets go!” cooper said before flying off with Gunnfodder leaving quann with the others.

“Don’t you have a wedding to plan? Then get to it I want to actually walk my cousin down the aisle.” he said with a smile earning a cheer from them and they scurried off leaving only Chrysalis, luna, and Celestia behind.

“Aunties, Chrysalis?” Quann asked flatly.

“Y..yes Raptor?” they asked still in disbelief over what they just witnest.

“I will need one of you to catch me because im about to pass out.” He said and promptly fell over being quickly caught by Chrysalis.

“I’ll take him to a room then Celsetia we can discuss this alliance.” She said before she walked out the door.

music ends

Two days later.

epilog

Rainbow had just preformed the sonic rainboom and commented on this being the best wedding ever. With Quann standing as Cadences best stallion and Twilight Shinings best mare. And Then Celestia announced that the newly crowned Prince Raptor of Equestria had something to say much to his dismay but she told him it was time for him to make his first appearance outside of ponyville as his first more meaning full public appearance. And they all fell silent as the ponies and Newly allied changelings looked back up as Raptor walked out onto the balcony not wearing anything much to his dismay as Cadence and shining armor stepped aside.

He turned around seeing his friends and family looking at him gesturing for them to come up. The crusaders the first to go, followed by Chrysalis and the elements, then princesses Celestia and luna, last by Cooper and his other troopers. And they waited for him to start.

“None of us knows what the future holds, but we will meet it together, with full recognition of all that has been lost… All that we have sacrificed… and all that we have found again.” Quann said and paused

“First week of boot camp they taught us a lesson.” He said gaining the attention of most of the guards and wonderbotls present.

“What was that mister Raptor?” Sweety bell asked

“Well you see sweetybell.” Quann said as he levitated her onto his back.

“A good soldier knows there is only one thing he can rely on when the chips are down… Not his cutting edge Intel. Not his state of the art equipment. Not his top of the line weapon… just himself.”

“It took me a long time to remember that.” He said glancing towards his friends and new family and turned back to the croud.

“Some old friends told me once that everypony has a choice.” He continued

“For now… the war is over. I will admit that I have made mistakes along the way but… after all I’m just a pony.” Then he paused

“My name is Quann R. Barnes. They call me… “

‘They need a hero not Zulu it needs… a’

“Prophet. I am Prince Raptor of Blackwatch thank you for making me feel welcome.” He finished finished earning a cheer from the crowd. And as Quann truned and walked away his friends and family could have sworn they saw a tear fall from his eye.

Later on they had just seen off Cadence and Shining Armor. And as there carnage disappeared in the distance Celestia started the sun rise. And they all saw Quann Standing Looking over a small pond. They walked up to him.

“What is it raptor?” Rarity asked wondering what was in her coltfriends mind.

“nothing. Just remembering.” Quann said sadly.

“It’s beautiful isn’t it Raptor?” Chrysalis asked leaning on him somehow despite her being taller.

“Ya it is.” He said.

“I say we go to the beach.” Quann said earning strange looks from his friends.

“What I need a vacation.”

“Raptor there is something I should worn you about.” Chrysalis said into his ear.

“What is it?” he asked

“The mares heat cycle starts in a few days and there heats are very aggressive. So unles you want to be jumped by almost every single mare in canterlot I recommend you have a plan.” She said quietly to him.

‘count down initiated’ his suit said as a countdown timer apeard on his hud.

“point taken. But I won’t have to worry about you or my aunts will I?” he asked worried

“No you wont they are to old they stopped having them about 500 years ago. And me I want our time to be meaningful not brought about by uncontrolled hormones.” She said nuzzling him.

“And I would worn Reaper to about Fluttershy, and your one guard what was her name Heart stop.” She advised. Nodding Raptor turned and walked to mech who saluted.

“Sir what do need?”

“Keep the engines on the V-tol prepped for the next few days.” He orderd but whet surprised him was the look of almost fear on his face.

“Its that time sent it!?” Mech almost screamed gaining almost every stallions attention causeing most of them to run off and quanns male guard, and even some nearby wonderbolts and royal and lunar guard walked up.

“Tell us you have a plan.” Ultra magnus asked

“I do and hear it is.” Quann said before and explained.

Nightmare part 3 harmony

“QUANN NO!!” Cooper shouted and dashed at the Manticore

All action in the Building stopped as they looked to the hole in the wall to see a Manticore standing over the body of Quann just now stepping in the blood pool under the body as it picked the body up with its paws and moved the smoldering body in front of its maw. But that is when it Happened.

‘Get up you Blackwatch Bitch if anyone is going to kill you evolved. . . it is going to be me’

‘Heller?’

‘Get up. And get back in the Fight.’

come back

“HHHAAAAAAAAAAAA”

Quanns screamed as he grabbed the Manticores Head and maneuvered the body so that he was above it and twisted and snapped the neck of the beast and stood on the ground on his hind hooves and yanked the head of the beast off of its shoulders. Black and red tendrils shot forth from his body and broke down most of the corps and absorbed the Biomass.

Every pony looked at him Like he was a zombpony who had just raised from the dead because with his wounds he should be very much dead as he turned to them they could see through the hole in his chest and see the night sky behind him. Everypony watched as his whole body was covered in red and black tenders starting at the head and ending at his fur covered hooves and to every ponies amazement the wound in his chest was healed.

“What the hell?” Quann shouted as he looked himself over.

“How the Fuck am I alive? Is this what being an evolved is? Why did I here Heller? And what the hell are those white and purple things coming my way?”

These were the questions Running through Quanns head as he stood straight on his hind hooves having beater balance than most ponies But that was when he was tackled by the aforementioned white and Purple Blurs taking him over the corps and in front of Celestia who had an almost amused face.

‘I knew he would be popular but I never thought he would catch the attention of both Twilight and Rarity this could cause a problem even cause us to never be able to use the elements again but there is no way he could have both unless. . . . Well he is an alicorn and that has already made other ponies wonder what other secrets there are in equestrian so the only way I can fix that problem is to make him a prince. And this will defiantly bring their whole group of friends together but being a Prince and not staying in Canterlot will mean having a Personal guard and Cooper will do just fine as a captain. I just hope that they take it well.’ Celestia thought

“Raptor you’re ok! I was so worried about you. I mean we. We were worried about you.” Twilight said a bit nervous.

“Raptor it was awful you had me so dreadfully scared.” Rarity said as she stood on top of him.

“Girls now is not the time” Quann said causing them to stand up and get off of him.

Turning to look at the princess she explained there situation and what cooper has done so far. Now all he has to do is give an answer and he will be a prince with his best friend as his guard and he will be able to make both Twilight and Rarity happy.

“Where will I stay?” Quann asked

“you can stay in Ponyville but you and Reaper will have to come to Canterlot for the next few weeks while your home is built in ponyville. And you and your guard Cooper will have to be introduced to the other guards.” Celestia said

“Well if I get to Fuck around in Canterlot count me in.” Quann said with a smirk.

"Then it is settled." Celstia said

“Well that’s all fine and shit but now we have to deal with The bitch who Put a horn threw my chest.” Quann said turning to Nightmare moon.

“OO IM So scared what can you do any way your guard is clearly stronger that you. I have seen the best you have” Nightmare replied evilly.

Standing on his hind hooves Quann was covered in Black and red tendrils as his clothed to a black hoodie with a red interior witch is shown in the hood that is hanging around the back of his neck and a big leather jacket with the collar up. Showing the world his cutie mark The Blackwatch symbol with the DNA double helix inside of the star.(James Hellers outfit without the pants)

“Bitch! You GOT NOTHING ON ME!” Quann shouted

As he was covered in more tendrils but instead of changing his clothes they concentrated on his right for leg sprinting at Nightmare and at a much slower pace that cooper was able to run but leaving a Transparent red trail as he ran, he jumped into the air over her. Leaving every pony even cooper was amazed at whet they saw instead a small blade like cooper had, Quanns was large easily the size of if not bigger than he is that is why it is curved and had black and red tendrils going threw the center following his hoof (James Hellers fully upgraded Blade arm).

“RRRRRAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!” Quann screamed

Quann slammed his blade into where Nightmare was he hit nothing but Cracked the ground and made a shockwave go through the ground causing a spider wed pattern to appear on the ground. Making the other ponies Gasp at how powerful he was. Hearing the sound of a spell charging behind him he flipped his body around easily slicing his Blade arm out of the ground and slicing at Nightmare who thought he was stuck she turned into purple smoke allowing the blade the pass harmlessly through her.

“NO YOU DON’T!” Quann shouted as he stood up and both of his fore hooves were covered in the same tendrils and turned into a giant black and red spiky fists like they was made of rock (Hellers Fully upgraded Hammer fist). And saw the direction that the smoke was going and slammed his fists into the ground and pumped bio mass into them causing black and red spikes to shoot out of the ground toward her witch she dodged.

“COOPER! A little help.” Quann shouted

“Right!” Cooper responded as he dashed past Quann and towards the Purple smoke cloud.

Quanns spikes retracted from the ground and went back to his arms as he retracted his fists from the ground and sprinted at Nightmare. Cooper slowed down to beside his friend and broke started spinning.

“Razor Blade Dash!” Cooper shouted and was about to speed off but Quann got an idea so he brought his hammer fists together on either side of Cooper that didn’t have the spinning blades and lifted Cooper off or the ground and spun his body to until the two of them looked like a Red and orange tornado and Quann released Cooper at Nightmare.

'Why the fuck is he saying stupid shit?" Quann thought questioning his friend.

“Sub-sonic Cannon!” Cooper shouted as Cooper flew out of his hands and he used the momentum from the spin to give himself a speed boost and speed toward Nightmare.

'No seriously shut the fuck up.' Quann thought annoyed

Cooper was a blur of Orange as he sped towards Nightmare as the air in front of him condensed into a cone he looked like an orange and white arrow and that is that slammed into Nightmares side but instead of Bursting through her like expected she shot off like a bullet into the wall, That is when Quann sprinted past cooper who had touched down onto the floor vaulting over his shoulder. Quann slammed his right hammer fist into the ground sending shock wave towards her.

“That wont work FOOL” Nightmare shouted as she flew above the shockwave only to be slammed back down from a vicious kick from cooper who used Quann to spring himself up to where she was.

“the team work those two use could be what we need to finally defeat Nightmare Moon” Twilight said

“Cooper fire ball incoming!” Quann shouted as Nightmare shot a fireball at him.

“I can see that Fuck face” Cooper responded as he dodged and skidded to a stop next to Quann who had switched to the Blade arm, and moved his left hind leg to in fornt of him and the other behind with the blade above it.

“Nightmare!” Quann shouted.

“What is it Fool!? Are you going to surrender? Knowing you can never beat me. Coward!” she boasted.

'Oh Fuck this!' Cooper screamed in his mind

“OH THAT’S IT!” Quann shouted making cooper step back he knew better than to be on the other end of his friend when he was called a coward.

Quann took a step forward cutting a half circle in the ground with his Blade arm making sparks fly as the metal of the blade cut through the stone floor, and with his fore hoof brings his arm bayonet to bear.

“I AINT SCARED OF YOU BITCH” Quann shouted as his wings flared out and he pushed Biomass into them and propelled his large frame into the air as his eyes glowed red and flew toward nightmare. Quann held out his left hoof as he flew towards Nightmare moon he was also sliding his Blade arm across the ground below him cutting into the ground creating sparks that flew into the night casting a shadow on his left side witch was only illuminated with the moon light and the blue glow of his arm baonet.

“DIIIIIIIIIE!” Quann shouted as he slashed his Blade at Nightmare who turned to smoke but when she solidified behind Quann, he spun around and smacked her with the flat of his blade. Quann jumped and did a summersault in the air to realign himself with his target and made another downward swipe.

“You cannot hope to touch me fool you are too slow.” Nightmare moon said as she dodged his attack again but was shocked when he drew back and kicked her in the side. And instead of just skidding to a stop like she did when Cooper kicked her, she coughed up blue blood as she was sent into the air where she was met with an unwelcome sight of cooper on the ceiling above her unaware that below her Quann had just power jumped and was quickly approaching her position

“Forgot about me BITCH!” Cooper shouted as he jumped off of the celling towards her as she Flared her wings to stop herself from ascending much to the two troopers joy.

‘perfect’

‘just want we wanted you to do’

Quann and Cooper thought as thought as they neared night mare moon with their blades held at the ready.

‘shink’ ‘shink’

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH” Nightmare moon screamed in pain as she fell to the ground now without wings.

“My wings you scum! You cut off my wings” she shouted to the two troopers as they landed in front of the other mares. But she saw what she had landed next to and smiled evilly.

“Cooper lets finish this” Quann said.

“Right” Cooper said nodding to his friend.

“Girls!” Quann said turning around to the element bearers who noded to him.

“I need you to use the elements one more time But this time on Cooper and I got it” he said

“What? No we can’t do that to the two of you.” Twilight said

“Just do it trust me we will be fine.” Quann said with a kind smile turned to the two princesses and received nods of approval.

“ok but you two ruffians better come back safe.” Rarity said

“I’ll be fine Rarity” Quann said bending down and giving her a peck on the cheek leaving her blushing.

“When I give the signal” he said

“ok cooper here’s what we’re going to do. . .” Quann started as he explained his plan to his friend

“got it” Cooper said

Quann pumped Biomass into his Wings to lift his large frame off of the ground and hovered there in place and extended his left hoof to cooper who grabbed it with both hooves as the two of them hovered in the air Quann held his Blade Arm out in front of him, and Cooper held his Blades out to the side but still pointed forward in the direction of Quanns Blade arm.

“OK ready girls” Quann said Receiving a yes form twilight and the others.

Cooper and Quann started spinning in place gradually gaining speed and Cooper had to use some biomass so he could continue to hold onto Quanns fore hoof. Two kept spinning until they were a swirling tornado of Crimson red and orange there infection marks glowing and providing the Transparent Red and Orange trails. The two of them angled themselves at nightmare moon, Coopers Blades Cutting into the Floor beneath them.

“Girls NOW!”

“OK Raptor” Twilight said

And in a brilliant flash of light a Rainbow Beam shot from the elements and toward the Two swirling Troopers and engulfed the two as Quann Pored Biomass into his wings and they sped towards nightmare moon.

“Perfect” She said out loud and levitated Quanns SAW at the two and started Firing.

“THAT WONT WORK BITCH” The Two of them shouted Taking more bullets until they herd the resounding ‘click’ of an empty magazine. And the two of them sped towards her now nothing slowing them down.

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO” Nightmare Shouted

The two of them slammed into her like a bullet train and like a bullet train proceeded to go right through her dicing her to ribbons with their Blades and the elements made sure she could not regenerate by dispersing her in a Bright flash of light and creating a dust cloud as the two evolved troopers reached the wall obscuring them from view.

“Reaper?” “Raptor?” Fluttershy, Rarity, and Twilight said as the sun started to rise and the two Troopers could be seen in the dust cloud one had parts that were glowing orange and the other a brilliant red.

“We did it.” Quann said his Blade arm gone and replaced with a hoof he fell back down on to all fours and walked out of the cloud still dressed like Heller followed by Cooper whose wings had turned back to normal But his father tips now slowly pulsing orange like the stripe in Quanns mane pulsed Red. And the two of them walked over to the element bearers.

“You two did it!” Twilight said

“No Twilight we all did it” Quann said gesturing to everypony present.

“now lets go home” Cooper said

“Finally I’m starving” Quann whined

“Raptor. Dear you are always hungry” Rarity teased

2 hours later

“You mean it princess?”

“Yes twilight you will stay in ponyville with your friends” Celestia said with a smile to her best student with Quann and Cooper about to get in a carnage to take them to Canterlot.

“Well I’m just glad it is finally over” Twilight said with a sigh just as things got quiet as Quann stoped and turned around and looked at twilight.

“No. . .” Quann started as every pony looked at the newly named prince waiting for what he was going to say.

“What do you mean raptor?” Rarity asked

“I think we are just getting started.” Quann Finished as he turned around and got back in the carriage and the two princesses, and the two Blackwatch troopers were on their way to canterlot.
