Haylo: Equestria
You'll Know It When You Know It
Previous ChapterNext ChapterONI Base was huge. It was gorgeous. Silver mounted steel, high buildings, that acropolis beauty. Too bad that it was crawling with hundreds of changelings.
I was trotting up the ramp that lead to the courtyard of the base. Pinkie Pie besides me. I zoomed in on my DMR, and sniped the first couple of Korts that poked there heads out. When I thought we were needed here, I didn't think they ment that we were under attack. Pinkie Pie short bursted the next couple of grunts. We galloped up the ramp together, into the courtyard. It was madness here.
I went up the stairs to my left. The clearing on the second floor made a perfect sniping spot, and there happened to be a sniper here. I picked it up, mounted it, and shot 3 Jaspers. A plasma grenade flew at me. I threw a frag into the plasma, and both grenades were sent back. They landed near some fusion coils (highly explosive chemical containers) that were loaded on a trolley. The grenades exploded, the coils exploded, the trolley exploded. This ended the chaneglings in the courtyard, very, VERY quickly.
I galloped down with Pinkie, wondering where the other Nobles were. There were ordnaces here. I got ammo for my DMR and Sniper, and pocketed an ASD12 (Air Strike Designator). We were facing a garage like door. It opened, and Jaspers spilled out. I hid behind some deployable cover, and I saw my chance. A rounded rock, a block of metal, and another fusion coil. I shot the rock on the side at the perfect angle, with my sniper. The bullet richocheted onto the block of metal, then it headshotted 2 Jaspers, and hit the coil, which killed 3 more. Unfortunatly, Pinkie was caught in the blast.
"Fuck!" I yelled.
"You alright Pinkie?" I asked. She got up, nodded, and galloped right on. The garage doors, surprisingly, lead into a garage like room. There was another set of garage doors on the other side, which opened. This lead to more madness. There two wraith firing. A blast nearly hit me, but I dogged to the left, and backflipped before a rock fragment pounded me in the small of my back, worst part.
There were marines out here, who all died. I didn't see a better time to use my ASD than this. I locked onto the nearest wraith, who happened to be right next to the other one. I watched, laughing as missles flew down and obliberated them.
A couple of ghosts rounded the corner off to the side. I sniped one, but the other one ran me over. I got up, everything was spinning. I managed to board the other ghost, though. Pinkie Pie got into a warthog, with a marine on the turret.
"Twilight, coms have been knocked out, and commandeered. We need you to take them back, and turn them on. Sending you a nav marker, now!" Dash came over the helmet com. A Nav point appeared on my visor.
"Alright Pinkie! Follow me!" I drove this ghost to the nav marker. It was located in a valley. They hadn't seen me yet. I parked the ghost behind a large rock, and got off. Pinkie Pie, however, stormed into the middle of the nav point. I looked up.
It looked like a summer camp. The buildings were made of wood, with wires spanning in between them. There were two buldings, and a small opening in the middle, probably for gatherings. It didn't look military, more like a worn out playground. I saw the two coms I needed to turn on. A revenant appeared from nowhere, and shot the warthog. I watched as it was launched over the air. The marine died, but Pinkie jumped out, and landed on 4 hooves.
The revenant had a passenger, but he wasn't important. I sniped the driver, and blood spilt over the passenger's eyes. Since they were both Jaspers, the passenger couldn't get his arms dislodged from below the other one, and immediantly crashed into a rock, and died. I brust up from behind the rock, and shot another Jasper, who's shields weren't up, in the face, and 3 more Korts.
I galloped up the staircase of the nearest wooden construction. I reached the top floor, where I was shot with a beam rifle. My shields immediantly went down. I hid back downstairs, and let my shields recharge. Once they did, I threw a grenade up there, and the Miko that shot me flew down here, with no limbs. I jumped back up the stairs, and turned the com on, just in time to see Pinkie turn the other one on.
"Alright Dash, we got both the coms on, now what?" I asked.
"There's been a sighting of corvettes over us, and these are corvette warships. We need you to re-activate our anti-aircraft system. Sending nav marker, now!" Dash answered. The nav marker appeared on my visor. The location was right over the hill of this valley.
"Let's go Pinkie!" I shouted. Turns out, the revenant was still good. I got in, and Pinkie took my ghost. We drove, turned once around the valley, and appeared near the cliffsides. They saw us this time. A fuel rod node came barreling toward me.
I strafed the revenant to the left, and shot a single bolt into hell. I saw bodies fly up, and hit the ground, but that's not where the fuel rod came from. I jumped out right in time, before the revenant exploded. I looked around, and saw it. It was a field marshall Jasper, the highest armor ranking. It was guarding the anti-air system. They were on the roof of a building.
My armor ability didn't have sprint, I had armor lock. I galloped to the staircase of that building, and climbed up, and activated armor lock right when I reached the top. Good thing too, the Jasper shot a whole clip of fuel rod at me. Right when he was reloading, I drop kicked him off the roof, and activated the anti-air system. I watched as it automatically aimed at the corvette, and it shot dozens of rockets at it. The corvette exploded, and was dropping down to the ground.
"Yes!" I exclaimed, joyed that the changeling warship was down.
"Good job Twilight. There have been a mass amount of changeling forces spotted near your position, and going to your position. We are dropping off a scorpian for you. Out," Dash said. A scorpian tank? I've only driven that once. I was excited.
Like she said, a scorpian tank dropped, and I boarded it, Pinkie in the turret seat. I saw the mass amount of forces show up as red dots on my motion sensors. I saw them first hand now. I shot the tank cannon into a group of ghosts speeding toward us. The first few exploded, and Pinkie shot the drivers off the other two.
"Twilight, we need you back at base, NOW!" Dash commanded, then there was static. I knew something was wrong. I drove this tank full speed back to base. When we got there, we went back up the same garage thing. There were more Jaspers now, zealot class, not good. I shot them down, but three got away. I saw Dash, now.
"Do not pursue, I repeat, do not pursue!"
"What's happening?" I asked Dash. "There's a breach on the roof, phantoms are trying to board from there, we need to patch it up, c'mon!" Dash galloped to a big double door in the courtyard. This led inside the base. It opened, and a marine flew out, and banged his skull into a fusion coil, which exploded, engulfing him in flame.
"Himikas! DUCK AND COVER!!" Rarity yelled.
A green lash of energy emerged from inside. I ducked, putting my hooves over my head. After it dispersed, I galloped inside, armor locking when necassary. I got close to the Himika, stabbed the barrel of my sniper into its exposed flesh, and pulled the trigger. Orange blood spilt out both ends of where I shot, and the Himika fell to the ground. I heard a bellowing behind me, and jumped just in time as the Himika's bond nearly killed me. I shot this on in the back, too, and it fell on top of its brother.
I entered a corridor, which opened into a large room, that kind of room with a single staircase that swirls around the walls and seems like it goes on forever (imagine King Sombra's staircase tower thing, and then imagine the staircases going in squares instead of circles, and that each staircase was enclosed by a wall). I started climbing, shooting whatever moved.
My mission was to find a breach at the top floor, but I didn't see any. Then I reached the roof, and I saw it. A whole room, 2 walls were missing. The walls that were still here were black from burning, and the edges were on fire. There was another corvette here, and phantoms and banshees attacked from nowhere. I grabbed a rocket launcher from the side. I thanked god that this had auto targeting, and pulled the trigger twice, and 2 banshees exploded. I focused my fire on the phantoms, now. Each one exploding after the other. I took a minute to notice a scarab tank walking across the horizon, very, very far away.
After about a minute, everything was calm.
Applejack came up to me, "Nice aiming thar, slick."
Dash came on over the helmet com, "5, 6, now!"
We walked downstairs, and stumbled apon a group of 3 black armored Zealots. They looked at us, and ran.
We were about to chase them, and then Dash came back on, "Where are you? I said now! Dr. Halsey demands our prescense!" When I heard Halsey, I galloped as fast as I could downstairs. Dr. Halsey was behind a shield wall, talking to Dash.
"It's been too long, AJ, Twilight, haven't seen you in awhile," Dr. Halsey said. She had a white mane, and a tannish coat. Her cutie mark showed a spartan pony on it, her specialty. We've all been training with her for, what, all of our lives?
Dash and Halsey had a heated conversation, "What the hell do you think they were after?"
"The possibility that they were here, they were after this ONI Base's secret excurstions of information, and you let them get away?" Halsey scolded.
"I had specificlly commanded them not to puruse for their own safety, Zealots are powerful," Dash rebounded.
"Forget them, they're strong enough, they could've taken them out. Now because of your team selfish act, the whole pony race has to suffer!" Halsey repented.
"Nobles, let's go," Dash commanded, no longer wanting to listen to Halsey. I took my helmet off, letting my face breathe a little.
"Can someone tell me what the fuck is going on?" I asked them.
"Zealots, they infiltrated out system, and they left with something. This is classified, sorry, I guess you'll know it when you know it."
