Twilight Sparkle woke with a groan, her alarm clock blaring like it did every morning. "Twi! Could you turn that shit off?" Of all the fresh recruits in the S.W.A.T., she just had to get Rainbow Dash as a roommate. "Hey, Sparkle! I said cut that shit off!" "Alright! Jesus, you don't have to yell!" Twilight turned her alarm clock off and stretched, when Dash started laughing. "What?", asked Twilight.
Dash snickered, "Hey, Spark! You missing something?" Twilight looked around, no, besides sleep and clothes, she wasn't missing anythi- wait, clothes? She looked in her covers, she wasn't wearing anything, not even underwear. "Dash! Where the hell are my clothes?" Dash was laughing uncontrollably, "I threw them in the courtyard, and I'm not getting them for you."
Just then, the door to their room opened. In stepped one of the rookies, a girl with blond hair and a gray coat. "Excuse me, but does this belong to anyone?", she asked. Twilight raised her hand, an embarrassed smile on her face. The rookie handed them to her. "Thanks, uh....what's your name again?" The rookie put her hands behind her back and traced her foot on the ground, "Oh, I have two names. My real name is Ditzy Doo, but I like to be called by my nickname, Derpy Hooves." Twilight nodded as she slipped her pants on. Dash had stopped laughing, and was now inspecting Derpy. "So, Rook, where ya from?" "I'm from Manehattan, but I grew up in Ponyville." Dash laughed, "Really, I'm from there, not much shit happens there, but it's a nice town."
"Anyway, how long you been in S.W.A.T.?" Derpy shrugged, "Uh, a week." The conversation would've gone on longer, but the loudspeaker came on, "All available units, please report to Room 503 for mission briefing, thank you." Twilight sighed as she claimed out of bed. "Alright, Derpy, why don't you go ahead, we'll meet up with you at briefing." Derpy nodded and quickly left the room. "I like her, just something about her.", Dash said with a smile. Twilight laughed, "Yeah, that's what you think about everyone from Ponyville. Now come on, let's see just what the hell we're doing today."

"Alright, ladies, sit you're asses down! Be quiet!"
The crowd quieted down, and the captain continued his speech.
"Alright, so today we're not the usual shit. This, is Warner Bloodscales." A picture of a heavily tattooed, dark red dragon appeared on the screen. "Bloodscales is one of the highest ranking members of the Draconic mafia group the Red Fires. He's been trafficking drugs into his warehouse for about two years now. Yeah, the common ones, crack, pot and heroine, but that's not why we're going after this bastard. People have been going missing in Fillydelphia, only to show up two weeks later with their throats cut. Who the fuck do you think they're blaming? Now, we'll split into two groups. Group A is with me. Sparkle and Dash, we'll be infiltrating the compound itself. Group B, you'll be providing over watch. Now I want you're asses ready and on the ground in one hour."

"Two minutes."
Twilight slapped a magazine into her M4 and gripped the gun firmly. Like always, she felt a little nervous, she didn't know what made her, but for the past four years, before every mission, she always felt nervous. The city of Fillydelphia spread out across the ground below. Dash sat opposite of her, gripping her own gun. Twilight couldn't tell for sure, but she was sure Dash was smiling behind her helmet. "You ready for this, Spark?", asked Dash on the comm. "I'm here to get this done, so yeah, I'm ready."
"One minute."
Twilight took a deep breath. In fifteen minutes, the mission would be over, Bloodscales would be captured and she could spend the rest of the at home. "Thirty seconds." She stood up, as did Captain Flowers and Dash. "Alright you two, check your weapons and ammo, stay frosty and most importantly, stay on my ass!", the captain barked. For the next twenty-three seconds, everything froze. Twilight thought it was hours before the pilot finally called out "go."
"Here we go!", Dash yelled as she rappeled to the ground. Twilight followed, hoping whoever was in the warehouse was in a good mood.
