Fluttershy barely felt Rainbow Dash poking her face in an attempt to waker her up.

"Darling, stop that, it's not going to make much of a difference." Rarity stated as she took off her mask.

"Fine... But shes gotta wake up soon to fix herself and the egghead, its almost start-up time." The rainbow-maned pegasus replied.

"Why don't you check up on Applejack for me dear? She said she needed help with a few things."

"Okay." Rainbow Dash walked outside the Resupply Room.

Rarity thought for a second, and her normal face dropped to a frown.

Ugh, I hate that...Disgusting...But I suppose its a last resort for now...She thought to herself.

Rarity walked to the wooden closet and picked up a spare jar of Jarate. She shuttered from even touching the jar, and returned to stand infront of Fluttershy who was laying on a bench.

Here goes nothing...

Rarity opened the jar of Jarate, and tossed the liquid onto Fluttershy who woke up with a suprisingly normal sounding gasp.

"Rarity!? WHY!?" Fluttershy questioned in horror as she arose quickly with her hands out disgusted.

"Your awake now...Right?" The white unicorn responded as she herself felt ashamed by the take action.

"But... But... Ewww!"

"Oh stop pouting, I have been doused with that a regretful amount of times... Anyway, Twilight is outside sitting on the balcony, she got stabbed while you were unconcious so it might be wise to heal her before this day starts."

"Oh, that poor pony...I'll get on it right away."

"Oh, and here, you might want to heal that broken nose of yours." Rarity suggested as she tossed Fluttershy a small mirror.

Fluttershy suprised by the sudden toss barely caught the mirror, and looked at her face. She had tape on her nose and it had some dry blood surrounding it. No matter, her Medigun could make quick work of this small injury. The pegasus got up and grabbed her medigun from the wooden closet, and healed herself. She took a look again in the mirror, her face was back to its pretty self. She smiled softly and put the mirror on the bench and walked outside the Resupply Area leaving Rarity to modify her Sappers.

She took a left turn to the balcony, and there sitting in the spot just like she had this morning was Twilight, holding her stomach.

Bzzzz

Twilight felt her wound slowly decreasing in pain until she couldn't feel it anymore. Without turning to look at her, Twilight spoke.

"Hi again, Fluttershy." The unicorn didn't show much emotion with those words.

"Hi Twilight...Something wrond?" The pegasus responded cautiously.

"Yea...I can't believed that happened...How did we not see it coming?"

"Don't blame yourself. She could have killed us without a single word, and we wouldn't be speaking to eachother now."

"I guess...I mean, I...I was just so scared to die for good this time..."

Twilight really knew what was wrong. She remembered the exact words of the changeling.

Fool. Coward.

Your girlfriend can't even heal a papercut.

Your girlfriend.

"Twilight, I have a message from Celestia, finally am I right?" Spike came walking to the balcony. Fluttershy gladly overhealed him as he nodded in respect.

"Oh, yes, yes let me see it then." The purple mare finally speaking after her long train of thought.

"Here." He handed Twilight a scroll similar to those she used to write to Princess Celestia back when they were still in Equestria.

The unicorn opened the scroll and began reading aloud into her radio so everyone could hear her.

My dearest student Twilight Sparkle, I have extremely important news for you regarding the past months.
I know you and your friends were sent to strange lands, and you are all confused. I also know you have been put to the test in fighting the 'BLU team.' However, there is more. Discord has been freed once again, and this time he has corrupted my sister. Nightmare Moon is back, and she assembled a squad to strike key locations. These are the ponies you have and still are fighting. It is vital you do two things to stop the advance in this so called BLU team, or equestria will fall under the dark rule of Discord.

You MUST do the following in this match.

1. Eliminate everyone on the BLU team. Death here means death forever unless you win the match. If either team wins the match, their casualties will be brought back to life and they will be returned to Equestria.

2. Take the BLU intelligence. In case you don't know, the BLU intelligence are hundreds of spells which all are small fragments that lead to the restoration of my sister's mind. Even if you win today without taking the intelligence, you will not have completely defeated Discord, therefore leaving a key opportunity.

I know that you are all heroes deep down inside. I am counting on you to stop Discord once and for all here, and I know you can do it. Remember what you learned in Ponyville.

P.S. No pressure ;)

Twilight sparkle chuckled at that P.S. She remembered what a sense of humor Princess Celestia had when it came to saving the world.

With everyone responding as a sign they heard, Twilight turned her radio off for the time being.

"Well thats nothing new, right?" Spike exclaimed as Twilight stood up and gave the scroll to the dragon.

"I suppose not. However, this isn't going to be easy for any of us. We have to be ready for anything." Twilight reassured as she grabbed her backpack from where it had been sitting this whole time.

"I agree. We should check on everyone now, if you want." Fluttershy suggested.

"Yes, good idea. C'mon spike, lets check on Applejack first."

The trio walked to the right of the Resupply Area and walked downstairs.

Right across from the doorway, Applejack was working on her Level 2 Sentry while she had Rainbow Dash carry a Teleporter upstairs.

"Howdy y'all, can I do something for ya?" Applejack said as she fixed some wires that were out of place on her Sentry.

"Hi Applejack, we were just doing a checkup before set-up time starts, is everything alright?" The purple unicorn questioned.

"Hmm... Come to think of it, I do reckon I could use Pinkie Pie here to make sure none of them snakes mess with my here machienery."

"Good thinking. Were is Pinkie by the way?"

"I believe she was messin' around with Zecora down in the Intelligence room, y'all."

"Okay, thanks."

"My pleasure."

The trio walked downstairs to the Intelligence room where they saw Pinkie Pie talking while Zecora was sitting on the steps to the Resupply Room.

"And so I said 'I HATE THE COLOR PINK!' " Pinkie Pie nearly shouted as they began to laugh histericaly. Twilight even cracked a smile at the thought of Pinkie Pie hating the color Pink.

"Pinkie Pie?" Fluttershy said as they approached the two.

"Yes?"

"Applejack said she needs you to make sure no spies get close to her stuff."

"Jawhol mein fuhrer!" Zecora and Pinkie laughed even harder as Pinkie walked past the three and up the stairs to where Applejack was setting up.

"You too, Zecora, we will need everyone to be ready, set-up time begins in about five minutes" Spike reminded as he tried not to laugh at how Pinkie responded to Fluttershy.

"Okay, I shall be ready for the fray." Zecora promised as she stood up.

"By the way, have you seen Big Macintosh?" Twilight pondered.

"He's in the Resupply Room above, cleaning his Iron Curtain. However, with Rarity in there, I think he is flirting." Zecora said as she gave a wink and walked up the stairs.

"Well, times wasting, lets move." Spike said as they began to go back to the Resupply Room when they were cut off at the wooden steps by Rarity.

"Oh, hello you three. Spike, Rainbow Dash said she needs your help with something, she's downstairs with Pinkie and Applejack." Rarity told Spike as she herself walked downstairs.

"Oh okay, see ya around guys" Spike exclaimed to the other two while he followed Rarity.

The two said their goodbyes and walked into the Resupply Room were Big Mac was spinning his barell with one hoof while he sat on a bench.

"Hey Big Mac, ready for today?" Twilight asked as they stood infront of him.

"Eeyup" Big Mac replied with great repitition.

"Is there anything you need, anything at all?" Asked Fluttershy.

Big Mac pulled out his sandvitch with the hoof he had been spinning the barell with and said:

"Nope."

"Alrighty then, everyone is down stairs, set-up time in one minute." Twilight reminded Big Mac as they walked out of the Resupply Room and walked down the wooden stairs to chat with the others before the announcer began speaking.

Mission begins in sixty seconds.

"Alright everyone, lets go kick some tail!" Rainbow Dash shouted as everyone took their positions. Zecora set some sticky bombs around the left doorway while Rainbow Dash leaned against the second doorway. Rarity was with Twilight who walked to the balcony, Rarity being the first to leave the fort when the siren ran. Big Mac ran downstairs to guard the sewer entrance. Pinkie Pie stayed with Applejack who had a sentry in the room behind Zecora. Spike stayed downstairs to guard the Intelligence.

"Everypony ready?" Shouted Applejack in the radio.

Mission begins in ten seconds.

Everyone let out their own unique yeah's and yep's in the radio.

Five. Four. Three. Two. One.

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Hi there guys. I decided to develope the story a bit more instead of do much action at all. Even though the format isn't broken this time, there are still plenty of grammatical errors/spelling errors you might find, be sure to tell me about them if you run across one. Thanks for reading this story!
