We all approached the bunker doors. Loading our weapons and prepping our gear.
“This fight will lead down to the twentieth floor. That’s where we will find the ‘War Room’. We’ll find the premier there. It’s time to end all this. It’s time to stop Discord before he can go ahead with his plan. He is a threat to our way of life, a threat to the ponies, and a threat to my favourite T.V show! Lets go kick some ass! UN marines! Back us up! You too can help us fight this enemy. We go in, we find the premier, we find out Discord’s plan and we stop him! Lets move it out!”

We proceeded inside the bunker. We fought our way down: from floor to floor fighting the Russians as we pushed them further and further down the complex. We fought through offices, warehouses and living quarters, taking down every Russian we encountered. The UN focused on clearing the upper floors of the underground complex while me and the team went straight for the bottom.

We reached the Eighteenth floor. A large, steel warehouse level with a tunnel at the back of the room. A tank was parked in the tunnel’s entrance and Russians had dug in around it. They really didn’t want us getting to the Premier. Sentry guns set up on the cat walks and mounted guns on sand bag walls around the tank. We took cover on the opposite side of the room from the tank. We were hidden by the ammo crates and they didn’t know we were here.
“A tank? Inside the complex?” Edward complained.
“I can just rocket them” Ryder suggested pulling out his AT-4.
“...Hold on a second Ryder. Look over there to the right...”
“An MRLS?”
“We could just use that” I suggested cunningly. “Nothing says kick ass like a thousand pounds of rocket mayhem”
“Okay. So how do we get to it?” Violet asked in an critic tone.
“Duh! We use our legs” chuckled Liam. We all just glared at him for a moment then continued the conversation.
“Well... some one makes a run for it while we cover them?”
“I’ll do it...” volunteered Ryder. “I’m the only one with experience with those things anyway”
“Alright! Everyone get ready to cover him. Twilight, Try to make a barrier to protect Ryder”
“You got it” replied Twilight.

“Open Fire!”
We all started shooting the Russians. They returned fire as Ryder made a run for the Russian MRLS. The sentries began firing at us and the bullets from them were going straight through the crates.
“Holy Shit! Stay down! The sentries have armour piercing bullets!”
Everyone got down to try hiding from the sentries. The sentries were automatic so they would only shoot us if they could see us. Ryder had made it to the MRLS and started it up. He blasted away at the enemy fortification with all thirty loaded rockets. Sand, shrapnel and debris was blasted everywhere. Overkill much. As the smoke dissipated we could see that absolutely everything that was shooting us was annihilated.
“Lets go! It should be clear to the War room now!”

We encountered a few more Russians on the way down to the war room but nothing we couldn't handle. We all moved into the war room expecting heavy resistance, but all we found was four Russian soldiers and the premier. We went in and pointed our weapons at them. Thy all dropped their weapons.
“Get down! All of you!” I commanded. I moved over to the premier and picked him up from the floor. “Listen. I don’t want any trouble. I just want to know what Discord is planning and where I can find him”
“I’ll tell you nothing, Imperialist pig!”
“Why are you hiding him? Why are you working with him?”
“He will bring an end to you imperialist dogs an bring Russia a new age of prosperity”
“You believed him? You really think he wants to help you? He’s just using you. He’ll just betray you in the end. You can end this war right now. Just tell me what I....”
Before I could finish a sword stabbed the Premier in the back. He fell on his knees, blood leaking from his mouth as he gasped. The sword surrounded by a light blue glow.
“Ahaha... Did you really think we would be so reckless as to let you find out our plan...”
“Trixie..”
“I'm not stupid....” Trixie rose from behind the metal computer panels, surrounded by her own blue glow. Her glow was strong, forming a large wavy circle around her. “...You cannot stop me...” She looked to Twilight with a frown. “...Twilight!”
“Trixie! I don’t know what your doing but we are going to stop you!” claimed Twilight.
Me and the ponies approached Trixie, walking right up to the panels.
“Whats your plan Trixie?” I asked threateningly.
“...fool, I came here to stop you finding out our plan. Why in Equestria would I tell you it now? I'm not going to waste time here. I would deal with you all myself but I have things to do. Have fun with my super soldier...” She vanished with a small explosion of light.
“...Super soldier?”

The door blew open violently and the force of the explosion knocked down my entire team that was by the door. A large eight foot tall, armoured soldier walked through the door: Flamethrower in one hand, a chain gun in the other and rocket pods on his wrists. Only me and the ponies were standing.
“What the fuck?!?”
His flamethrower instantly heated up and blasted fire across the room. The flames burnt Pinkie’s and Rainbow’s back. Both of their backs blistered horrible, massive red blisters covered their backs and Rainbow’s wings. The chain gun of the soldier then started to spoil up as it pointed towards the others. Bullets sprayed out of it, hitting Rarity in the side three times and blew chunks of flesh off Apple Jack’s back legs. He tried to fire at the last two ponies but Twilight levitated a large computer monitor for protection. The bullets amazingly couldn't get through the massive screen. After his bullets failed he fired a rocket at the screen which launched Twilight and Fluttershy across the room.
“No one hurts Fluttershy and gets away with it!” I ran up towards the soldier jumping over his rocket. The rocket landed behind me and I used the force to fly right over to him. He aimed to shoot me with his chain gun but I just kicked it out of his hand. I kicked him in the stomach but all it did was knock him back a bit. His armour was way to tough. He then tried to aim his flamethrower but I grabbed the end and pointed it away from me. He fired it anyway and the heat from the gun warming up burnt my hand. I kicked the flamethrower out of his hand too. He then grabbed me by the neck and lifted me off the ground. I wrapped my legs around his neck and twisted them. I heard his neck crack and he let go.

He took a few steps back as I fell to the floor. I looked at him, and he just tilted his head sideways to crack his own neck. He then ran at me. Fuck he was fast. He grabbed my leg and smashed me to the ground with his fist. He then kicked me across the room and I hit a load of metal computer panels. I tried to get up back but he grabbed my head and punched me. I fell again. He cracked his knuckles and punched me in the back. I heard my back crack violently. He tried to punch my back again but I quickly rolled out the way. My ribs where cracked and I was in a lot of pain. I got up. He try to punch again but I dodged and drew my knife. He tried to punch again but I ducked under it and stabbed him in the leg... well tried but his metal armour deflected it. That's when I noticed that the inside of his joints were only thin Kevlar layers so he could move properly. Same with his neck. He swung again but I dodged and grabbed his arm. I strafed behind him and stabbed him in the back of the knee. He flinched and swung the back of his fist round. I ducked under it and kicked him again, dodged his next attack then slip his throat. He then fell to his knees and held his throat. After a few seconds he got back up and grabbed me by the neck, this time chocking me.
“How the fuck are you still alive?!?”
It was getting harder and harder to breath. He then punched me and threw me to the ground. Then he put his foot on my chest and grunted at me. I couldn’t see inside his helmet. It had a blacked out W shaped Visor, but even then I could tell he was angry at me. I looked around for help but everyone was down. Ryder tried to get up but the super soldier just drew a pistol and shot him in the leg. He then pointed his pistol to me... I was so screwed now.

“Dasvidania!”
The super soldier looked behind him to see where the voice came from. Gavriil was standing behind him with a Shotgun to his head. Bang! The helmet didn’t stand a chance. The super soldiers brain matter was blasted all over the floor, computer panels and... me unfortunately. A large white chunk of brain matter landed right in my face along with a lot of his blood. I wiped it off with disgust and stood back on my feet

“Gavriil! Your alive!”
“Yes comrade. It is good to see you’re well too”
“I thought you got shot back in London”
“No comrade, they took me prisoner. Interrogated me, wanted to know everything about you. You stirred up a lot of trouble for Russia. What are you doing here anyway?”
“We were here for him...” I looked at the dead Premier. “He was our only lead on Discord, but Trixie killed him”
Violet limped over to me. “We still got the computers. There might be something on there we can use”
“Good, get to work” I then turned to my earpiece. “This is Courage. Is the complex secure?”
“Yes sir” a marine replied.
“Good. I need a medical team to the War room. We have heavy wounded and Fluttershy could use some help”

It had been three hours now and Violet was still trying to hack the computer system. I was patched up by the UN medics but I was still in a lot of pain. Some of my ribs were broken and my back was aching really bad. The medics did give me a fresh set of blood so I was at no risk of bleeding to death. However the transfusion left me weak and shaky. Hopefully I wasn’t going to see combat for at least a day. I really did need to recover from the battle this time.
“How you doing Violet?”
“Almost there. Just got one more firewall to disable and I’ll be in”
“Where did you learn to hack like this anyway. I thought you were a marine in Africa for your first job”
“Before that I was a university student. I did a computing and an electronics course. Came out with 96% on both”
“Damn. I'm impressed. So why did you become a peace keeper?”
“I wanted to do something good and help people. Didn’t do much helping though. More of oppressing the locals. That's why I quit. All we did was terrorise the locals. Sometimes I wonder who the real bad guys are in this war. The UN is just as much of a monster as Russia”
“I know what you mean but that’s just how the world works...”
“...Got It! Okay I’m in”
I sat down next to her and looked at the screen in interest.
“...look at all this data. It could take hours to search through all this”
“Search for anything on Discord”
“I found something...”
Suddenly the massive view screen on the wall ahead came up with a map of Antarctica. The ponies walked over to us and stared at the view screen. A small circle was marked near the centre of the island.
“...That’s it. That’s all that came up with Discord’s name”
“...Then I guess that’s where we will be going next”
