First fic. Not mine, but still.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Equestria and Aquileon, the griffon's realm, have a long-standing agreement: Every five years, teams from each country will face each other in a competition to garner fame and glory for their home and for themselves. This year, the griffons have chosen war games, confident that they can steamroll the peace-loving Equestrians.
Princess Luna, determined to stop this from happening, pulls nine great warriors from their world to help Equestria and to train their representatives. But was this a good idea?

Twilight followed The Sniper as he headed under the battlements. She wasn't sure what to make of the situation at hoof. But whatever they were going to do, she knew it wasn't going to be good.

“Err... Mr. Sniper, was it?” Twilight asked, desperately trying to strike up a conversation. However, she was ignored, with the man going down the stairs and into the room to his left.

“Hey wait up!” Twilight gasped as she tried to catch up. When Sniper reached the area he wanted, he proceeded to the middle of the room, the sewers was in front of him, the battlements and bridge to his left, and the resupply and respawn room above him. The Sniper was still silent, however, which made things awkward for Twilight thanks to the silence, except for the occasional yell by Soldier on the battlements above.

“Uh... si-” Before she could finish her sentence, she saw the Sniper's Kukri heading straight toward her in a spinning fashion, she barely ducked out of the way with the Kukri neatly attaching itself to the left wall.

“Wh-what was that for?!” Twilight exclaimed. Not even five minutes have passed, and this person was already trying to kill her? What gives?!

“Just testing y’er reflexes mate. Ya’ never know what might happen.” Sniper said, barely suppressing a chuckle. He then proceeded to remove his Kukri from the wall.

“Wh-what?! You could have killed me! “ The purple unicorn was fumed. How could he just endanger her life and shrug it off like it was nothing?!

“Mate, if I wanted you dead, you wouldn’t have been able to enter this building in the first place.”

Twilight suddenly had the chills, but wouldn't show it.

“And besides, after I have been backstabbed so many times by the BLU spy, I've taken precautionary measures.” Sniper responded, his voice, turning to a serious tone.

“B-backstabbed? You mean, you've t-taken large injuries to your back?? How can you still stand?” Twilight was nervous. How was this man still standing if that were the case?

“Those 'large injuries' weren't just injuries. It meant instant death for me. Thankfully, we got the Engineer's respawn device which is how I'm still here.” Sniper sheathed his Kukri and grabbed his Rifle.

“Respawn device? What's that?” Twilight questioned.

“A machine that brings us back from the dead.” Sniper stated simply. Twilight gasped.

“I-it's not what you think! we're not zombies!” Sniper stammered. “Anyway.. we start the training now.”

“What's that?” Twilight questioned, examining the Sniper Rifle. It looked like a smaller version of Pinkie Pie's Party Cannon but with a scope. She had no idea what it was though.

“This, is a Sniper Rifle.” Sniper handed it to Twilight. “It has a scope, which is mainly used to snipe enemies from afar.” Twilight proceeded to lift the rifle with her magic. 'So it seems we won't need Engineer for this one.' Sniper thought to himself.

“From afar? You mean we won't be in the fighting?” Twilight smiled a bit, happy that she wouldn't get too much injuries. She then realized that her friends were going to be taking the pain for her, which made her a guilty. She mentally slapped herself for being so selfish.

“That's right mate, no fighting in the battle. However, that doesn't mean lazing around and doing nothing. Since I am a Sniper, I try to support my mates and go for the potentially harmful enemies. I always aim for the head.”

“The head? isn't that...painful?” She imagined one of those things firing straight through her head. She definitely didn't want to be on the receiving end of that rifle.

“Listen closely mate, in the battlefield, mistakes are crucial to helping the enemy win. Should you even hesitate for a moment to pull the trigger, it may be already too late and the enemy would have mowed down your teammates already.” Sniper stated coolly. He needed to teach her the truth. Even if it was somehow painful for her.

“I-I didn't know that...” Twilight was flabbergasted at the information she just took in. One simple mistake, and it's all over.

“Listen mate, I've observed you for a bit. You're a pony who calculates things and likes to keep things in order. Everything should be perfect and done accordingly. Sniping is just like that. Timing is needed. Patience should be also considered. And in the face of your enemy, remember that you are doing this not for yourself, but for your friends.” Twilight couldn't say a word after that. Sniper was also shocked himself at what he just said. 'I guess I rubbed off my mates somehow.'

“But now, we start the training.” Sniper scanned the area for anything good to hit. He then saw a bottle of scrumpy that Demoman left (and never bothered to pick up) a few days ago. “Perfect.” He then took the bottle and placed it to the far right side of the area, right next to the steps near the sewers, then went back to Twilight.

“Now then, I want you to aim for the bottle and squeeze the trigger with your magic. Take your time. There is no ru-” Twilight squeezed the trigger with her magic as soon as she thought the rifle was aimed at the bottle, the recoil of the gun forcing her to land on her flank. the shot missing and hitting the wall above the bottle.

“B-but I thought...”

“Mate, ya' need to aim slowly with precision. And use the scope. That's a very important tool for the Sniper Rifle.”

“R-right..” Twilight took aim again, while looking at the scope. She saw some bars that seemed to be rising and lighting up with a percentage number going up. When the bars reached 100%, she squeezed the trigger, hitting the bottle directly, the bottle's middle part turning into glass shards.

“Woah..” Twilight was in awe. “But wait, doesn't it seem stronger than the first shot I fired?”

“True, mate.” Sniper answered, his hands folded in front of his chest. “Did ya' notice the bars and percentage numbers which were rising?”

“Yes, I... Ohhhh....” Twilight slowly came to realization of what Sniper was about to say.

“There ya' go.” Sniper said with a grin. Which made Twilight smile too.

“Remember, when sniping, the head of your enemy is top priority. You can go for the body as well, but it would definitely be more effective if you shot through their head.”

“Thanks Mr. Sniper, but… I’m not sure I’m up to killing a living being yet..” Twilight frowned.
Sniper patted Twilight’s head. “Not to worry mate. Since this is the war games, they’ll probably have their own respawn point as well too. You’ll be killing them, but they’ll live thanks to their respawn point. So it isn’t killing them at all.” At these words, Twilight perked up.

“Now let me tell you a little something about a weapon of mine called Jarate…”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Seriously? Ewwww.” After listening to Sniper's story of Jarate, Twilight was about ready to puke. “I don't know anyone could use something like THAT as a weapon.”

“It's more of a support though. It makes my weapons hit stronger and harder on enemies doused on that, and it could also be used as-”

“FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!” Scout shouted as he blazed through the room desperate to get to the river. However, Sniper was too fast and already threw his Jarate at him.

“Heads up!” *CRASH*

“Aw, geez! Now I'm covered in piss! And the water was just over THERE!” Scout complained.

“I needed an example and you were on fire anyway.” Sniper chuckled mischievously. “Well Twilight, that's another use for Jarate, dousing fires!” Twilight meanwhile, who's face has turned green, was desperately looking for a bucket.

“Why were you on fire anyway?” Sniper asked a pouting Scout.

“Ol' mumbles and the pink pony were shooting flares everywhere out there,” Scout pointed outside the base “One of the flares was shot in my direction, and before I could'a dodged away, It already slammed into my face. Anyways, I gotta go, before Skittles finds a way to insult me on my hygiene.” With that, Scout dashed for the water under the bridge.

“Well Twilight, it seems you still have a lot to learn on the art of Sniping....” Sniper stated.

“I certainly.. do.. by the way, don't use the bucket near the stairs to the sewers..” Sniper then burst into laughter. Twilight wasn't so sure about him anymore.

'This is going to be a long day....'

Author's Note

Again, this story is not mine. I just decided to take a shot at it and continue this story. It would be a shame if this story died quietly and not with a bang.
