0000 Chapter Two: Hope

0000 Human HQ, Outer Perimeter Sector A

“Any hostiles in sight?” a person in a ghillie suit whispered to his friend.

The other sniper looked through his scope; he scanned the trees looking for any ponies of any sort. He only sighed before replying.

“Nope…not one single fucking pony in sight.” He replied, he continued to look through the scope.

*sigh… “I really miss my family…” the first said as he scratched his head.

“I concur.” The second agreed.

“Hey…Jason? Do you really think we have a chance anymore? I mean…there’s barely enough of us to fight them anymore…” the first asked, the one named Jason only shrugged his shoulders.

“I don’t really know how to answer that Rick…but…we must not give up hope…not yet.” Jason replied, he spotted a blotch of blue and readied his Barret. “Hostile in sight.”

Rick instantly laid right back down on the forest floor; they were both aiming their sight on the unidentified blotch. One was nervous while the other was shaking angrily. With most of the foliage out of the way, it revealed a pony…along with four others. There were two blue ones and three yellow ones, had a bag of vials sticking out from their flanks. They were turning their head form one direction to another looking around in the opening.

“Five targets, take em out.” Jason said. He pulled the trigger of his weapon, Rick followed quickly right after.

*PFFT! *PFFT!

With the sound muffled by their attached suppressors, they had the advantage. The high caliber round tore right through a blue pony leaving a gaping hole in its body, blood spurted and the organs fell out in a heap. The second round went through two of the orange ones with the same gory results. The remaining two had crazed expressions on their faces as they grabbed their potions and frantically looked around for their attackers.

*PFFT! *PFFT!

The one of the two remaining ponies went down with headshot, leaving a bloody and gory mess. The other’s leg was blown right off; it didn’t scream or wail to the fact it lost a leg, it kept its creepy and insane smile on its face.

“Good kills Rick. Nice double kill with the first shot.” Jason said.

“Thanks, that was awesome brutal kill too.” Rick said with a grin.

Jason chuckled before contacting HQ. The line fizzled and cracked until it connected with HQ.

“HQ, this is Special Ops Jason here, send out the wolves for dinner in Sector A.” Jason said.

“Roger that kid. Dinner time boys!” a voice replied a series of growls and snarls came along as well.

Both Jason and Rick climbed up a tree and sat on the thick branches as they watched. A camouflaged doorway slid open letting a pack of Timber Wolves jump out, they circled the area once before sniffing the bodies of the recently dead before focusing their sight on the struggling pony that was still alive. The wolves circled it once before jumping in to kill the living pony, the xeno didn’t scream when it was being bitten and eaten alive by the predators.

“For some reason…I enjoy seeing that happen to those bastards.” Jason said sadistically, Rick on gave a nervous stare.

“Huh, I didn’t realize.” Rick mumbled.

0000 The Sewers

“Eugh! This is disgusting.” a Russian said as he followed his brother and the others over a walkway that hovered over a stream of muck and other things. “Yuck. I wonder what grandpa Nikolai would say…oh right. “I need some vodka.” Wish I had some right now.”

“We’ll drink later. Right now let’s just get the hell out.” Joey said, he aimed his gun down a corridor.

“We should be nearing the end, won’t be long till we’re out.” Klein assured as he pointed his flashlight around. As he was pointing around the light managed to land on a red square. “There it is! Quickly now!”

The group approached the red blotch; the doctor was looking over it very carefully. A series of sounds echoed across the corridors. The soldiers began to get nervous and impatient.

“Hurry up doctor, they’ve found the sewer access.” Joey’s fellow U.S. Soldier said. The doctor seemed to be figuring out a puzzle of some sort.

“Hold on…if this goes…here. Then…that…goes…err…here! AHA! Now we pull!” the doctor said happily, he began to pull the hatch open with ease, a ladder leading to the surface was laid before them. “Well then? Let’s go!”

0000 At the surface, Outer Perimeter Sector L

Under a very old looking tree, a hidden doorway plopped open. A hand reached up before the person pulled himself out revealing Klein, he was looking around nervously. A French came out right after, followed by a Russian, a Chinese, and two American soldiers. Klein quickly sealed the hatch. He pulled out a device from his pocket and it clicked as he put pressure on it.

*BOOM!!!

The whole facility erupted in a large explosion; a mushroom cloud could be seen a mile away. A slow rumble came under them as well. The soldier’s and the doctor sighed in relief, but now they had to get back to HQ without any casualties.

“Let’s get back to HQ boys; we gotta keep up the fight against those pastel colored freaks.” Joey said, everyone seemed to be in agreement on that.

0000 Human HQ

“What’s new on the enemy movement?” the US General asked an operator, she gave a glance at him before looking back at the screen.

“The ponies seem to be sitting tight for now, but they’re amassing more numbers by the day. I think they’re readying up to storm a safe-hold, I just hope not this one though. They have been sending scouts around these areas but I think they don’t really care what happens to their friends that don’t come back.” she replied.

“How many holds are still left out there?” the General dared to ask. The operator gave him a sad expression.

“None left…a mass of the ponies just stormed Alpha Hold, but we were able to send word them and get the place mostly evacuated. A few civies got ponified, but everyone got out. The place is in flames and smoke by now.” She said as she looked back onto her computer screen.

The General gave another sigh as he sat down on a chair. Things were getting worse and worse by the day and by minutes, their kind wouldn’t last much longer against the invaders.

0000 In Orbit

In the atmosphere of Earth, there were at a few objects falling downwards. They burned brightly as they descended, the objects fell they veered off slightly into the incoming clouds. The perfect cover, as they entered all was black inside of the clouds. The objects emerged again, this time the fire died instantly and the objects slowly vanishing into thin air as they flew off into different directions.

0000 Somewhere else…

*Clank *Clank *Clank *Clank

A series of loud footsteps clanged against metal flooring. Shadowed figures were marching about to their unknown destinations, there were other figures shouting in a unknown language to them.

“Vazir vakudo! Enya suinku vas sullia! Fei ARANE!!!” a voice came over a intercom.

“Fei ARANE!!!” the ones marching in the halls repeated loudly.

“Fukras feim mas su! Lok taro kuna sok! Yeik! Yaik! Ken ato justai! Glorai! Victai! Vehiek!” the voice barked again.

“JUSTAI! GLORAI! VICTAI! VEHIEK!” the marchers said loudly once more.

As they marched, four figures were watching the whole thing converse from a balcony in another room.

“Sayo sun…karakai…” the first said, the other two nodded. “Ugbozi foraz, mei fuin kulaz. Miyan si ku, los vatas xenos. Forgai nit, aldu vak casus si ne. Ana toos!”

“Kirsei…uvanos…kli kla vanos ma ni kyu…” the second said.

“Vera weli.” The first spoke with a scowl on its shaded face. “Suku cen, sindo vas luk can xus.”

“As yi viza.” The second said before leaving, the first stopped for a moment before looking at the third.

“How long till the rest come?” it asked the third.

“Fourai dez.” It replied, it nodded before leaving as well, the first then look at the fourth. The first pressed something on his helmet before speaking.

“Mogera mogeta?” he asked, his voice gaze off an electric buzz to it. The fourth was silent before replying.

“Gurazz gura.” It said in a buzz. The first nodded to it, and the fourth then left in a blink of yellow.

The first then looked at a blank screen before playing the message again. As it played he muttered something.

“Vengeance strides forth…Arane guide us.”
