Location Ponyville, Equestria

Abel in his mind was gathering all that happened the night before. The Tower in Italy, the Nod forces, his and his men’s unexpected journey to a strange new planet, the Nod presence there and the ponies that talked. But no matter how he put them it was too much for a single man. Being blasted two times and shot once didn’t help either. Still he felt at ease now, he felt a presence one which he felt before and made him calm, but couldn’t open his eyes to see who or what it was. ‘Just remember, never give up.’ A voice spoke to him and his eyes snapped open. He was staring at the white ceiling, but what made him flinch was a beeping sound, looking to his right side, he saw a wire and a device that registered his EKG. Lying on his soft bed, he still thought of what happened and wondered when and how his life would finally end, he had several narrow escapes, but it was like someone or something kept him alive for some reason.

The door in front of him started to open and they came in view they were two a woman medic who he saw earlier that night and the purple unicorn that he encountered.

“Well seems you are alright after all, Lieutenant.” The doctor said.

“I don’t know your comparison of alright blasted to times and shot once, doesn’t really enter the ‘I am alright’ category.” He responded.

“Of course, sir. But someone wanted to meet you and properly thank you.” She said pointing at the unicorn.

“Thank you very much and I speak in the name of everypony, what you did last night saved a lot of lives, Lieutenant.” She said in a soft voice.

“Your welcome, miss…” He hesitated.

“Twilight Sparkle.”

“Twilight Sparkle, your much welcome. But I fear we have only made things worse.” He sighted as he tried to get out of his bed.

“Why do you say that?”

“Because if there commander don’t have any report from them, they will send here a response team to check on them and I don’t know how many will come and how well equipped.”

“I still think you did a good job you saved the lives of many ponies.” She reassured him by putting a hoof on his hand.

“Doctor Diana, has the Lieutenant woken up?” A voice through the radio was heard.

“Yes he’s up.”

“Alright get him here at the Library. We have something to talk about.”

“As you wish. Lieutenant, do you fell like you can walk?” He got out of his bed and started walking a little.

“I have been shot, not incapacitated I am more that able to.” He joked.

“Yes sir, let’s get you some clothes and head to the library.” The Lieutenant received the most necessary clothes and respectfully asked that Twilight and Diana wait on the hallway while he got dressed. After he got ready, the trio headed to the library. As they got out of the hospital, he looked around and saw the city in broad daylight. He saw ponies walking around some were repairing the damage, which was inflicted onto the buildings. Looking up he saw the winged ponies moving the clouds around this was a strange sight for him, but knowing tat because this was a new world, things will be of course stranger. They reached a building, which supposedly was the Library, but it was literally built in a tree. From inside loud voices were heard like in a room full of politicians. Twilight opened the door the doctor went inside as well. The Lieutenant entered and was hit by a wave of shouts hit his ears. There where several ponies arguing with some human soldiers. Only a few seconds and the Lieutenant snapped.

“Shut up!” He shouted so loud that all stared at him. “I’ve been having the best two days of my life, got shot and exploded and I find you here at each other throats, now everybody, calm the fuck down.” He said now really pissed. “Now that’s better. Firstly I want to hear the presentations from the ponies.” He approached the table.

“I will make those.” Twilight began. “Abel, these are Applejack.”

“Howdy Abel, welcome to our town.” The orange mare smiled.

“Pinkie Pie…”

“After all this I am going to give you the best welcome party for you.” She said and they shacked hoof with hand.

“Fluttershy…”

“Hello, Mister Abel.” She said with a high degree of shyness.

“Rarity…”

“When you have time, come around my Boutique and I am going to make you some amazing clothes.”

“These are all.” Abel asked.

“No actually… has anypony seen Rainbow Dash?” She asked.

“She left early in the morning on a small scout mission she should be back.” Mike said.

“Alright, now that we have made ourselves known. Can you tell me what happened here and by here I refer to your country?” The Lieutenant asked the ponies.

“I can explain to you Abel since I am good at Equestrian history. Because you all are new to this world after all I am going to give you a little history lesson first.” She smiled a little. Therefore, she began telling the humans about all that was Equestria about there two immortal alicorn princesses, the strife between them, the spirit of disharmony, how the three tribes of ponies eventually united, the changelings. She also told some of her and her friend’s adventures like Nightmare Moon, Discord and Queen Chrysalis. After this history class, came the main event what happened after the first encounter with the humans that called themselves the Nod. “They came a year ago, we don’t know from where. There leader went to the Princesses and offered them knowledge and power, knowledge of what they called the Green Crystal. Despite these supposedly peaceful motives, the princesses did not accept the offer. I knew all of this because my mentor Princess Celestia herself told me all this. Before this leader left, he told them that consequences would follow this decision. No more that a week later our capital city of Canterlot was attacked, we stood no chance in a few hours the city was theirs. We tried to evacuate our small village as well, but as we wanted to make our final escape, we were captured and locked in those cages. It has been some time since we walked free again and for that we thank you Lieutenant and your team.” She bowed a little.

“Your welcome, but our interference may have been for a good cause, but I fear we have made things worse.”

“How so Lieutenant?” Applejack asked.

“If the Nod Commander doesn’t get any report from this base. They will send a response team here, first time we got lucky, next time it will not be that easy.”

“Oh buck it; if you and your folks wouldn’t have come we would have been in a worse place than now believe me.” The mare returned the word.

“Yes, darling you saved all our lives the other night we owe you great debt of gratitude.” Rarity said.

“Maybe, we shall see if I made the right choice after all.” He chuckled. A knock on the door interrupted the conversation.

“Come in.” Two human soldiers entered and looked tired as if they had been running a great length.

“Sir.” They stopped and saluted all those in.

“At ease what’s with the hurry?” He asked.

“Sorry sir, we were stationed at the Operation Center when the Eva Unit received a transmission.”

“Alright show it to us.” The men put a disc on the table and a holographic projection began. An image was formed a pony was standing on a throne with two Nod Confessors on each of his sides. ‘Brothers and sisters today is a glorious day to all ponykind. Today we will witness the final act of our former leader Princess Celestia. Our great leader Kane has promised us more than we could ever imagine, rejoice Children of Nod today the blood of the oppressors will finally flow.’  And the video ended. Now Eva madder herself visible in the place of the former video.

“What’s going to happen?” Twilight asked.

“Your Princess will be executed in front of your people.” Abel responded.

“What?” Rarity gasped.

“But how and why?”

“How, I don’t know, maybe poisoning, maybe shot, but I know why. To stop giving your people hope, if she dies all the ponies will fall into the hands of Kane immediately.”

“We need to save her we can’t let her die.”

“No we can’t, but we can’t go blindly, either. Look, me and my men have experience dealing with Nod, but we lack the sheer numbers to face them directly. We are going to save her, but we need some support from all of you. Therefore, I am asking you to trust me on this. If we are going in the field, you listen to me and maybe we should be able to stop any unnecessary bloodshed. The mares looked at each other not knowing what to say, they were taken aback by this proposal, but they knew that there was not much choice in there situation, but they were better with the GDI then the Brotherhood. But all there thinking was interrupted by a heavy knock on the door. A human soldier burst through the door.

“Lieutenant.” He saluted.

“At ease, what is it?”

“Sir we have found an intruder trying to get into the village.”

“What intruder?” Twilight asked.

“Come and see ma’am. Bring him in guys.” Inside came a pony and a dragon, the dragon which light-purple scales and green spikes on his head. The pony was a pegasus with a dark-yellow coat and a black mane and tail. One of his eyes was closed and had a scar running over it. They carried another creature with them it looked like a pony, but had holes in is hooves and had insect like wings and fangs.

“Is this a changeling?” Abel asked the mares.

“Yes that’s how they look like in there normal form.” Twilight explained.

“What is your purpose here?” Abel asked the changeling. “Why have you come here?”

“I have come to search for aid.” He said looking down.

“Horse-apples. You want only to steal love.” Applejack hissed.

“We may have only wanted that, but the circumstances have changed.”

“How so? From what I heard from the Elements of Harmony you changelings only respond to your queen and your hunger for love.” Abel responded like in an interrogation.

“Our great Queen Chrysalis has been captured by the ones who call themselves the Nod. I have come here to ask for aid in helping us recover her.” They all stared at each other, a changeling coming to ask for help from the ponies.

“What are you willing to do to recover your Queen?” Abel asked the changeling.

“I would give my life for our queen if the need arises.” He said.

“What’s your name, considering you have names?”

“I am known as Shifter.”

“Shifter, my name is Abel and I am going to give you a proposal. We are in short supply of men who can wield our weapons and from what I have heard your kind can shape shift, can you turn yourself in a human?”

“Yes we are capable of doing that.”

“Alright we are going to have a mission today; one of the alicorn princesses is going to be executed today in the capital city of Canterlot. We are going to save her so that we may have the support of the ponies. How many of your fellow changelings are?

“We are around fifty, but we always find more.”

“Very well. You two release him.” He said towards the dragon and the pony. “Go back to your men and tell them that if they are going to help us we will save you queen.” The changeling looked upon the human.

“Thank you Abel. We will be honored if we could take the fight to the enemy.”

“You will do that, now go back to your kind and tell them that.” He bowed and left through the door.

“Why did you let him leave?” The pony with the scar asked the Lieutenant.

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Believe me when I tell you that if we are going to survive we need more friends than enemies. By the way I didn’t get the names of you two.”

“My name is Raynor I am the best fighter here in Ponyville.”

“Mine is Spike I can burn you to crisp anything.”

“Glad you two are on our side. Now fine boys and girls, back to our mission. Twilight do you have a plan of the city of Canterlot here in this Library?”

“Yes.” She used to her magic to levitate a piece of paper which was folded and put her on the table. Now they started working on there plan to retake the capital city from the enemies.

Location Ponyville Equestria

At the train station in Ponyville, it was a rather mixed feeling of hope and fear. Hope because this will be the first incursion against the enemy that has plagued there land, fear because for some this may only be a one-way trip for them. Shifter has brought many changelings, which took the form of humans, each received body armor and weapons from the Nod barracks, it did not took very long for them to catch the strategy and to use human weapons, fast learners these changelings are. But ponies were there also helping with the loading of crates, the unicorn in particular wanted to fight alongside the humans by using there magic, since they have no way to hold a weapon. The six vehicles were also stored on the train to help in this strike. The Lieutenant was now back in his zone trooper suit overseeing the operation. He took a step closer on one of the hexagonal boxes and addressed the crowd there.

“Friends may I have your attention please.” He said all stopped what they were doing and looked at him. “As some of you know, today we will launch our first offensive against the enemies we know as the Brotherhood of Nod. I will be in charge of this mission so I should be thankful if you all can listen to me. We are going into the capital city of Canterlot and stop the execution of your beloved Princess Celestia.” Gasps were heard, as some ponies did not know of this. “So that will be our first objective, to save her. The secondary objective will be to drive the Nod out of the city and save the prisoners kept in some locations around the city. We will be expecting some heavy resistance including chances of enemy reinforcements. Despite we are outnumbered that does not mean we cannot win this if you remember to follow the leads of your team commanders you may just get back home to the ones you love. Am I right?”

“Yes sir!” Was the only response and one that baffled him all there both human and pony, saluted him in unison.

“Alright then everybody suit up and get on the train.” He ordered all of the soldiers got in there respective train cars the doors closed and he radioed Private Michael.

“Mike let’s get this party started.”

“Party, what party? I am the one with the parties.” Pinkie Pie questioned.

“Not that kind of party Pinkie sorry.”

“Oh, ok.” She just smiled.

“Let’s get going.”

“Yes sir.” Mike responded.

The train began moving forward and slowly started to gain speed and slowly built up some speed. At current speed, the estimated time arrival at the city was that of an hour at worse. They went through the tunnels, over bridges, and alongside cliffs as they went up the mountain. Inside the train, all started talking about the mission about the enemy and about what the humans had in weapons and technology. On there journey they have not encountered a single Nod patrol and it was a little strange usually they kept patrol at any hour of the day.

“Lieutenant.”

“What is it Private?”

“You will not believe this if I told you look out your windows.” All in the train looked on there windows. What they saw where strange tall plant-like thingies that released some sort of green liquid, all around them were strange green looking crystals. They saw how some crystals were growing slowly, but surely. Then they saw a strange creature that looked like a wolf, but it was covered in the same green crystals, from before. The ponies did not know what they were they never saw anything like it. However, the humans knew, it was what the GDI fought against since is discovery in 1995. Curious Twilight approached Abel and asked.

“What was that?”

“That Twilight is what may kill all living things on this planet.” The tone in his voice was much darker that usual, like this had happened before. “I will tell everyone after we save your princess.” She did not say anything at him, turning her gaze back at the green filled landscape.

Operation: Unicorn Dawn

The train stopped at the entrance of the last tunnel before the city. All got ready taking there equipment and arming there weapons. The Lieutenant got out of the train-car and turned back to the ones in the train.

“Alright you all know the plan. I am going to go first when Eva gives you the signal you go in, got it.”

“Yes, sir.”  He locked his helmet on and moved forward into the tunnel. The tunnel was dark and only a fain light marked the exit. Taking cautious steps, he emerged at the exit there was a stone bridge that connected the city with the rest of the world, the city built literally on the side of the mountain, was making Abel think himself like in a dream, is tall towers and still glittering white walls. Snapping out of his daydream he slowly descended the cliffside on the other side of the waterfall. His suit was more that capable of handling water so he went down into the river. He moved underwater so the enemy will not detect him. After a minute underwater, he found what was looking for: a sewerage exit, he got a hold of is side and got in the large pipe.

“Eva, get the long range scanners on-line.”

“Alright Abel. All scanners are on-line no movement in the tunnels, only surface movement.”

“Thanks Eva, now let’s get going.” He started going under the city through is long tunnel system. He needed to reach the exit, which is supposed to be under the maze right outside the palace. After about an hour of walking underneath the surface, he finally reached the end of the tunnel. “Eva, any enemies around?”

“No the scanners say is all clear. Take the ladder and we should be right at the palace gardens.” He went up the ladder, moved the lid, and went outside in the afternoon sun. He looked around; he was right next to the palace maze and near some sort of statues that stood tall, but one caught his eye. It was a strange creature like someone made an experiment combining different animals. It had a look of horror on is face, as if he was being shot or something.

“Oh, stupid creature, stop starring at me!” An angry voice said. Abel took his weapon and waved around, but there was no one. “What did a bird scare you?”

“No, but I will make sure to shot you, if you don’t show yourself.” He responded.

“Wait a second you can hear me?” The voice asked.

“Of course I can hear you show yourself.”

“I am right here, on your left.” Abel turned the only thing that was there was that ugly looking statue. “Yes creature that is me, trapped in a statue.”

“So if what Twilight told me is true then you are Discord, are you not?”

“Yes I am Discord, Spirit of Chaos.” He said with a form of happiness in his voice.

“Glad to meet you, my name is Abel, but I am sorry I can’t talk to you know I have a job to do.”

“And what might that be?” He asked rather curious. The Zone Trooper wondered should he tell him or not?

“To liberate the ponies of this city.”

“Ha, ha, ha…Oh that was a good laugh. You to save these ponies not even Celestia herself could stop this, I would love to see her face now.” He said with a hard laugh.

“Well I am not sure you will get the chance, she will be executed shortly.” This time there was a long silence, the draconequus was now speechless and felt something, anger and rage was building up, but not against ponies, but against the ones who dared to touch Celestia. His heart began to pound, cracks started forming on the outer layers of the statue, in a few more seconds he was free, the stone form was now gone and there stood only the spirit of chaos hovering a few meters from the ground.

“Tell me where is she?” He said towards the human with an anger full look.

“I don’t know Discord, that’s why I am here. I have a strike team outside the city wall awaiting my signal, after I finish what I came to do; we were going to take the city by storm. By the way, why are you so interested in the fate of the princess I thought you hate each other?” This question took the draconequus by surprise, but simply answered.

“I have some unfinished business with the Celestia that’s all.” He said, but the Lieutenant sensed the lie in his voice, but did not push forward he needed some help.

“Alright then. Look, Discord if you help me I am going to find your princess, do we have a deal?” He showed his hand.

“Deal.” Discord said and he shakes the humans hand with his lion paw.

“Now, I need to find a building here in the city, is called the Operations Center. Do you now where it might be?”

“I think I know.” He said and snapped his fingers a bright light later and they were inside a red glowing chamber with screens.

“Thanks, but how did you know if you were in stone?”

“Some of the soldiers were talking while I was still in statue I heard every word every time they came, so I kind of figured it out myself.”

“Very nice.” He knows talked to his A.I. “Eva now is your turn.” He put the card that contained her into the console and it changed color from red to blue.

“Eva Unit is now on-line and ready Lieutenant; taking control of any unmanned vehicles in the city; detecting prison camps; cutting communication and sending message to the strike team. I am in position Abel, do I have permission.”

“Do it.” With that, all hell broke loose. Several vehicles inside the city began attacking the Nod, on the screens appeared different battles all around the city, Nod infantry trying to cope with the rouge vehicles.

“Eva, can you locate Princess Celestia?”

“Of course. Searching…. Found her, she is in the dungeon under the palace.”

“Discord get her out of there, I am going to help my men in the battle, can I count on you that you won’t do anything stupid?”

“You have my word, despite what you have heard about me I never endangered anypony.”

“Ok then, get her out and take her away from the city until we have secured it. Take this.” He said throwing him a small radio. “Is a communication device put it in your ear I am going to call you when we are ready, ok? And Discord, try not to get stoned this time.” He joked.

“Don’t worry I won’t.” He winked and was gone in a flash.

“Eva, where is the team?”

“They have entered the city and now are scraping the remnants that I left behind. But I am detecting Venoms and Carryall’s en-route towards there location.”

“Ok, try and destroy as many vehicles as you can, the team and I will deal with the aircraft and infantry.”

“Alright, Abel.” And with that she ended her transmission.

“Let’s go and say hi.” He busted through the doors and has they went flying it caught two guards and killed them instantly. The Zone Trooper exited the building and started going in the direction of the main battle. Encountering only small squads of either infantry or cyborgs that were easy to dispatch. Using his jetpacks, he climbed the building and now took note of the surroundings. He saw the aircraft heading towards his team and he went forward. Using his jetpacks to get from one roof to another. Until in line in sight, he unleashed his weapon. Two Venoms fell prey easily to his rail-gun at such a close proximity; they did not stand a chance. He looked down and saw the ponies and humans pinned down by some Nod Attack Bikes and around four squads on infantry. He pointed his weapons and shot the two attack bikes and they went in flames. The Nod soldiers took note of his location and started shooting towards him as well. He jumped off the building and before he hit the ground, he shot the last two bikes. Now only the infantry remained. Taking cover behind some rubble where the other humans and ponies where.

“Took you some time, Abel.” Twilight said as she shot one of the soldiers with a magic blast.

“Sorry got a little stopped by someone on the road.” He said and started shooting as well.

“Interesting, did you find her?”

“Yes I have sent someone after her, don’t worry.”

“Who?” She questioned.

“I will tell you later. Let’s get this job done.” She only nodded and continued there fights. The Nod started to dwindle as many of there soldiers began to fall. But there were still many. Then one of the unicorns a blue one with a silver mane sent two disks flying towards them. The discs detonated and the enemy soldiers where sent flying into the sky and the nearby buildings. The shooting stopped signaling that this small skirmish was over. All came out of there hiding and looked upon the street no enemy remained there.

“Alright everybody regroup.” He said towards the soldiers. He turned to the unicorn that made the final strike and saved a few lives with his attack.

“What’s your name, unicorn?”

“Pokey Pierce, sir.” He was a little scared, probably this was the first time he killed someone.

“Are you afraid, Pierce?”

“Yes sir.”

“Afraid of what?” He leaned down asking the pony. He whispered something to the Lieutenant that only he could hear. Abel turned towards the Pinkie Pie the one he met at the library one of the elements of harmony. “Her?”

“Yes, but please don’t tell her.”

“I won’t, but I suggest you tell her and get that stone from your heart.”

“Maybe another time.” He smiled.

“Ok. Listen up everybody we need to get to the palace that is where out little Nod friend is, so we need to take him out. I will take point and clear the way for you, if you see any Nod shot first, then ask questions. Let’s go troopers!” They all went down the road towards there objective, they did not encounter any more Nod troops on there way, but was too quiet around them like there was no one else in the city only them. “Eva, what’s going on is to quiet, around here?”

“I am not sure; it seems that the Nod is retreating to the palace ground. A number of tank’s and vehicles have stationed there, you will have a hard time getting in.”

“Thanks for the vote of confidence Eva. Try to make a diversion to make them go to one of the entrances.”

“Yes sir.”

“Alright guys we need to stop.”

“Why?” Raynor asked.

“We need to get more information about what we are against. All of you move to that high building.” They followed the Lieutenant in one of the tallest buildings in the immediate area. The Snipers started to take point at the windows. The Rocked Troopers got on the roof to get ready in case some aircraft detected them. Twilight took one of the binoculars and looked down to the palace.

“What do you see Twilight?” Abel asked the unicorn.

“Well there are four Obelisk’s of the Light at the main doors also some of those SAM Sites, there are several troops inside, including cyborgs, outside the building there are two of those Avatar Warmech’s and also several Scorpion Tanks.”

“Alright, how do you know that much about the Nod arsenal?”

“Eva gave me all the information I needed while you were out in the hospital.”

“Ok I can live with that, actually you reminded me of something. Eva what of that diversion you promised us?”

“I was just planning to call you. I have taken control of some Beam Cannon’s, I will pave the road, but you need to walk on it.”

“I’ve got you Eva. Alright you heard the lady let’s pay our little Nod Commander a visit.” They all smiled at the small joke and rushed out of the building heading toward the palace grounds. As they approached they saw that the front gate was breached seems that Eva was really doing her thing. Then an explosion was heard. The rushed in and saw a small crater and several vehicles torn to pieces one of the Avatar’s was trying to move using his three fingered hand. Abel took his rail gun and shot it again, this time stopping it for good.

“Eva really gave them a run for there money here.” Snyder smiled. It did not take long and again they were under a bullet barrage.

“Oh couldn’t they just get a break.” Karen groaned. “Pierce, can you take care of them?”

“I thought you never asked.” He stood and used his magic to throw several disks through the windows at both levels; explosions soon followed and started raining with Militants.

“Alright all move, move!” Abel ordered and started running inside the building they started shooting all the Nod’s as they got out from hiding as well from other rooms. However, nothing stopped the team from there objective they reached the stairs and started climbing.

“I hate stairs, couldn’t they just build an elevator.” Said Snyder.

“To bad your not a pegasus.” The rainbow colored mare mocked.

“Maybe, but you can’t hold a gun with those hooves and that gives me an advantage.” He mocked back.

“Yeah, but I can make a Sonic Rainboom. Can you do that?”

“Both of you quit your bitching or else I will send you back down to the lobby in one shot.” Karen said annoyed by the two. They did not say anything. Twilight looked at Karen and said between her lips.

‘Thank you.’

‘Your welcome.’ She responded.

They got to the throne room and shot the two Nod Confessors who guarded the door. Abel us his metal foot and burst opened the large wooden doors. However, as they were ready the hall was empty no one was there mocking them or anything.

“Where is he? I want to have a little talk to that bastard.” Rainbow Dash said.

“I think were to late Dash. The Nod coward took away before we arrived.” Karen responded. As they looked around, they saw down an aircraft and a white pony that was running inside it.

“Sir, he’s escaping!” A soldier called the Lieutenant and they all saw as the Banshee took off and left them with there anger. Rainbow Dash looked into the sky and saw several clouds moving strangely.

“Hey why are the clouds moving like that?” All looked in the direction and saw how cloud after cloud started to disappear.

“Oh no. Rocket Squads on the roof now!” He shouted they soldiers went to the stirs and started pointing out there missiles.

“Abel what’s happening?” Twilight asked him.

“Those are cloaked Vertigo Bombers they will level this place. We need to get out now." Abel moved with his soldier up the roof and started to take point. There was only one time when the bombers were vulnerable, but that left them only seconds to react. Now the bombers were now visible and ready to deliver there ordinance. They fired two bomber were taken out, but three more remained. Out of the sudden, the clouds turned pink, the aircrafts turbines absorbed this new strange cloud and blew up. The final bomber managed to dodge the clouds, but was hit by a bright yellow ray and was cut in half. Two figures descended from the clouds, one the Lieutenant knew it was Discord. However, the other one was unfamiliar to him. It was larger than a usual pony and had both wings and a horn, it had a sun painted on is flank and a strange rainbow like mane. Despite not metting her, he rather figured it out, who she was.

“Princess Celestia I presume.” He bowed seeing as she was the royalty around here the soldiers did the same.

“Indeed I am, Soldier. And may I say your presence has been more timing than ever.”

“Thank you, but I assume you need some questioned to be answered.”

“Yes, but not here I will make the arrangements, you are our guest now. And you shall be treated as such.”

“Actually I would like my men, been taken care firstly then we will talk in more detail, your highness.”

“Very well then, but to say the least thank you for your efforts today you have saved a lot of lives.”

         Unknown Location

          The Banshee landed in the hangar and the white pony got out of his seat and trotted towards the command room. Once there he called someone by video. An image of a bald man with a mustache appeared.

“Great Kane, I don’t bring good news, we have lost the Capital City.”

“You have disappointed me Blueblood, for this defeat you will be punished.”

“I know my lord, but there is something else you must now. The ones that attacked were several humans and had some GDI arsenal.” This made a glint of interest in the eyes of the human.

“Hmmm interesting. Very well you shall be spared, but if you fail me once again, you will wish I had killed you.”

“Thank you my lord.” He bowed and the video ended.
