Aliens: Equestrian Marine Diary

Corporal Endless Midnight, Viper 2-3 Delta, 22nd Equestrian Marine corps "Bug Splatters" Battalion.

700 25th June 2246, Dropship Viper 2-3, Unknown system.

I guess its confession time... Yes I'm an alicorn and yes I was trying to keep it a secret.

I was due to be made a princess, but I didn't want that sort of responsibility, so I joined the marines.

I used a disguise spell that I had learned from a book I had read, to hide the fact that I was a alicorn. I was pretty much the same when I was disguised except then the fact that I was allot smaller and a unicorn, I had a midnight blue coat and a light grey mane and green eyes.

you may ask "why bother with the disguise at all?" well I knew the royal guards would be looking for me and If I just walked up to the enlistment building I'd be recognized and brought back to the palace.

You may thinking that only crazy people join the E.M.C and why did I... well to tell the truth I've always wanted to be a marine ever since I was a foal. I knew I wasnt going to be a game and It was dangerous but I didn't care, I wanted to make a difference. and the E.M.C gave me that chance, I knew that I could do more good here then If I had taken my place as a princess. I knew it was right, that it was my destiny.

And it wasn't until I had joined the core that I got my cuiti mark. Before that I had used a special sticker to cover up my blank flank, it had been a single red music note. I chose it because I liked singing, My mentor Princess Twilight Sparkle hadn't managed to figure out it was a sticker and hadn't said anything about it if she had.

It want until after My first mission with Viper 2-3 delta that I got it. Its a Shield with a pule rifle and flamer in front of it.

I got it when my squad had been surrounded by a whole bunch of xenos, I had been carrying a flamer and a rifle.

A fun fact about Xenomorphs, when they are set on fire, they tend to explode after a while, so while sending jets of flame into them I used my Rifle to speed up there explosive demise. I didn't notice the flash of light from my flank so I didn't see my cuiti mark until I got back to my room on the Salura.

When I told everyone my story an hour ago, I though they would hate me for not telling them... but they didn't, even after lying to them for so long they understood not just my Squad mates but every pony in Viper Platoon.

I guess I was lucky to be put into a Battalion with pony's like them, Brothers to the Close!.
