"Okay, got everything I need and can meet up with everyone for a next Death Battle!" Sunset smiled after putting her last notebook in her backpack.

"Halt, Sunset Shimmer! For I would like to have a word with you!" Trixie walked up to Sunset.

"Oh, hey Trixie, having magic with your magic act?" Sunset greeted with a question.

"Well, there was a little accident with Fluttersy's bunny during yesterday show, but we were able to make up in the end." Trixie explained.

"But that's not what Trixie is here for! Trixie heard something special from the duo that you and the others, along with Flash, have been watching something that was out of this world and exciting! Trixie demands to know what that is!" Trixie said, leaning her face closer to Sunset's.

Sunset realizes that Trixie must be talking about Sweetie Drop and Lyra, they probably were going on about Death Battle and now it looks like Trixie wants to know about it too.

"Sure, I'll be happy to show you. Just come over to my place and you'll see what's it all about." Sunset invited Trixie to come over.

"Trixie will happily accept the invite, and this show better be great and powerful to impress me." Trixie said before walking about.

"Well, better alert the others that we're having a guess coming." Sunset took out her phone and started texting the others about Trixie coming over.

(Sunset's Home)

"So, you all have been watching these fights between characters, whether they're real or not, to the death to see who could come out on top along with learning about these characters." Trixie summed up on what she learned just now.

"That's right, and it's been pretty awesome, so far!" Rainbow Dash smirked.

"Because your pony counterpart was in it?" Applejack asked sarcastically.

"You bet she was! AND SHE AWESOME!" Rainbow Dash shouted in joy and did the moonwalk.

"Okay, that's enough of the talking and getting right into the Death Battle!" Sunset said as she spins the remote on her finger.

"You've been practicing that, haven't you?" Flash asked, seeing how skillful Sunset was being when she spins that remote on her finger.

"Yep." Sunset answered and kissed his cheek before pressing the play for the next episode of Death Battle.

"Logo looks impressive." Trixie commented.

Wiz: They are the government's best-kept secrets. Masters of stealth, trained to kill in a hundred different ways from the shadows, or face to face.

"A spy episode? This could be boring." Rainbow Dash said.

Boomstick: Solid Snake, the legendary soldier of Metal Gear.

Wiz: Sam Fisher, Splinter Cell's ultimate predator.

"Legendary and Predator, wonder which one will prevail." Flash interested in these pairs.

Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.

Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.

"Is that their catchphrase? It sounds appropriate for this Death Battle show." Trixie asked curiously.

"Yep, in every episode we watch so far." Applejack nodded.

"Makes me curious about what other things they have." Twilight asked herself.

Solid Snake

Wiz: His name was simply "David", and he had one clear purpose in life: Become the successor to the greatest soldier who ever lived.

"Carrying on a legacy is a great honor to some, like me with ma family's apple farm." Applejack smiled.

"Although, I can't help but feel a "Why" in my head about this." Rarity said.

Boomstick: Why? Because he was cloned from him. Strap in ladies and gentlemen, this origin's a doozy!

"What?" Everyone gasped in shock.

"Okay, I did not see that coming." Applejack said.

Background

Real name: David

Born: 1972

Height: 6'0"/182 cm

Weight: 165 lbs/75 kg

IQ: 180 (Impressed Twilight)

Has fought wars since age 19

Has a strange fetish for cardboard boxes (GOT Trixie curious)

Wiz: As a secret government project, David was created using eggs donated by a Japanese scientist and grown in the womb of a femme fatale spy along with seven other would-be brothers.

"Hey! That's almost the exact number of children my mom wanted to have!" Pinkie realized that number.

"Your mom wanted to be a mother of eight kids?" Flash asked shock.

"My parents wanted a big family but couldn't have any more kids and decided us three were the best." Pinkie explained.

"Now I suddenly want siblings." Trixie said to herself.

Boomstick: She was almost the original Octomom, except they scrambled six of them to somehow empower the remaining two.

Wiz: According to prophecy, one of these twins would bring ruin to the world, while the other would save it. So that kind of works out.

"Worked out in a twisted way." Fluttershy muttered with a disapproval look.

Boomstick: Born to be a soldier, he joined the Green Berets as a teenager and later joined the CIA, the U.S. Army, and finally the hi-tech Black Ops group called FOXHOUND. Here, his deadly stealth techniques earned him his legendary code name: Solid Snake.

"Must mean that he's solid as a rock and can strike fast like a snake." Rarity believed.

"That would be cool." Flash complimented.

Wiz: While serving under this Special Forces unit, he received training from the very man he was cloned from, Big Boss.

"Aw, he got to bond with his daddy!" Pinkie smiled.

Boomstick: But on his very first mission from FOXHOUND, war itself changed. After infiltrating the military nation Outer Heaven to rescue a fellow agent, Snake uncovered plans for the creation of a gigantic, walking weapon that can airmail a nuke to anywhere in the world. It was called "Metal Gear".

"Sounds like a name for a band who are actually assassins." Pinkie commented.

"Interesting way of seeing it." Twilight said.

Wiz: Despite being a FOXHOUND rookie, Snake destroyed the Metal Gear and discovered that Big Boss himself was apparently leading the enemy (Applejack: What?!). After killing his own father, supposedly, Snake had had enough and entered early retirement.

"How could that man do such a thing?" Trixie asked, acting a little dramatic.

"Maybe he planned to have Snake join him down the line." Rainbow Dash guessed.

"I hope he found a new good life." Fluttershy said.

Boomstick: But since he had singlehandedly destroyed a walking nuke shooter and the greatest soldier who ever lived, Snake became the next soldier of legend. Anytime a new Metal Gear showed up, Snake was pulled back into the fray. When all he really wanted to do was get drunk in Alaska and dogsled race with his 50 huskies. Talk about living the dream.

"So much for trying to live a peaceful life." Rarity sighed.

Col. Campbell: The Iditarod? The longest sled race in the world? When did you become a dog musher?

"Since he found out about his dad being the bad guy and such." Sunset answered.

"But that still haunts him." Applejack worried for Snake.

Wiz: Turns out Big Boss wasn't quite as dead as people thought.

"What the what?!" Rainbow Dash shocked.

Wiz: Even after Snake burned him alive with nothing but a lighter and a can of hairspray-

Boomstick: History's greatest soldier, everyone!

Wiz: These Metal Gears kept showing up. Soon, Snake was an expert at destroying these robotic behemoths.

"Sounds like the guy just can't catch a break with these robots nor his dad." Flash said.

"Though I do love the idea of using hairspray to fight off the bad guy." Rarity commented with a grin, which worried Applejack a little.

Boomstick: He even piloted a Metal Gear to destroy another Metal Gear that was designed to kill Metal Gears! Whoa...

"Whoa is right, you gotta be one tough guy to do that sort of crazy thing!" Sunset surprised.

"Just like how you and the girls keep doing the impossible odds." Flash said before kissing her cheek.

"Still though, Snake must also carry his own equipment to be prepare to fight off those Metal Gears, like Trixie being prepared to put on a show." Trixie bragged a little.

Wiz: But Snake did not earn his reputation as the icon of stealth by going in, guns blazing. Although he knows how to use almost any weapon he finds, he keeps his load light by entering missions with only the bare essentials.

"Alright, time for the weapons!" Rainbow Dash rubbed her hands together.

Weapons & Equipment

1911 Operator: Pistol used for lethal shots

Stun Knife: Houses a non-lethal electric charge that emits through the blade

OctoCamo: Smart camouflage that blends its coloring and heat signature into the environment

Solid Eye: Has night vision, reveals IR heat signatures and footprints. Displays a radar which picks up nearby bio signatures

Boomstick: Snake carries a Ruger Mark II pistol with tranquilizer darts, perfect for silent takedowns. But, if he wants to get lethal, he whips out his 1911 Operator, one of my favorite handguns ever, and he's got a stun knife, which is like if a taser and a knife had a baby, all three of which he incorporates into his specialized fighting style: CQC, a brutal mix of hand-to-hand combat and gunplay taught to him by Big Boss himself.

"Those weapons seem cool for an agent like him." Flash and Rainbow Dash commented, both shock that they were thinking the same thing.

"That martial art training seems to be the only good thing he got from Big Boss." Spike rolled his eyes.

"I wonder if a knife and a taser can have a baby?" Pinkie asked silly.

"Pretty sure they can't." Twilight stated to be highly unscientifically impossible.

Wiz: Preferring to remain unseen, these weapons wouldn't do Snake much good without other tools to keep him hidden from his enemies. Snake's outfitted with his OctoCamo, a smart camouflage which can match the color, texture, and temperature of Snake's surroundings.

Boomstick: Not even the Gekko bots, with their infrared and night vision tracking, can find Snake in this camo.

"The right style can always help you in any situation." Rarity believed strongly.

Boomstick: Plus, he's always aware of his surroundings, thanks to his high-tech eyepatch, the Solid Eye.

Wiz: He's not actually missing an eye. It's more like a monocle from the future, with infrared, night vision, and radar.

"Maybe you should make that for yourself, Twilight." Spike joked, but Twilight didn't seem to get the joke.

Wiz: Snake's also been injected with nanomachines, which energize his body and his CODEC, an internal radio system. The CODEC allows two-way communication, which is 100% silent, almost like telepathy.

Ames: We have little time, so I'll be brief. How about switching to nano communications first? Silence beats talk when it comes to safety.

Scene shows one old and evil-looking old man watching Snake and Ames about to nano communicate with each other which upsets the man.

"Now that's one way to have a private conversation." Sunset commented. Makes her wonder if she could do something like that with her mind power.

Support

Real name: Hal Emmerich

A.K.A.: "Otacon"

Founding member of Philanthropy

Computer expert & hacker (Impressed Twilight)

Designed Metal Gear Rex

Hacked the FBI, US Army, & ArmsTech (Really impressed Twilight)

Removed the AI controlling the Patriots' system

Super dedicated otaku (Rainbow Dash: nred)

Boomstick: Feeding him info from the other side of the CODEC is his best friend, Otacon, a pathetic cowering nerd with horrible bladder control. But he's also really good at hacking computer systems, so I guess he gets by. Give him enough time, and Otacon can hack into any top-secret facility.

"I thought there weren't going to be any outside help?" Applejack confused on this.

"Maybe they won't be in the fight itself, just give them advice or something." Flash guessed.

"Which goes to show that the muscles aren't everything without the brain." Twilight smirked.

"Ain't that the truth." Sunset smiled and the two high-fives.

Feats

Blew up a tank using grenades

Overcame his own genetically superior twin clone "brother" (Applejack feels somewhat sad)

Twice defeated the legendary soldier he was cloned from

Survived microwave bombardment for 3 straight minutes

Has defeated snipers, ninjas, psychics, and more

Wiz: Apart from Big Boss, Snake has defeated cybernetic ninjas, psychics, his own twin, and of course, several giant Metal Gears.

"I get his twin is evil is all, but I really don't like how families fight each other like that." Applejack said sadden.

"Even discord happens within the bloodlines." Trixie stated.

Boomstick: He can wield a railgun as powerful as a tank with his bare hands, and once blew up an actual tank using nothing but a couple of grenades.

"How do you destroy a tank with just little grenades?" Rainbow Dash asked shock.

"If you know well enough of the tank's weaknesses to exploit them." Twilight pointed out.

Wiz: And once he powered through a sealed hallway while being bombarded with microwaves, and survived.

Boomstick/Applejack: Who throws microwaves at people? Come on!

Wiz: No, Boomstick, it's more like he was inside a giant microwave.

"I'm sorry, WHAT?!" Twilight shocked and Spike nearly jump from the shout.

Boomstick: My god, think of the size of Hot Pocket you could make with that!

"Oh, so many cupcakes and cakes and other baking sweets I could make with that microwave!" Pinkie smiled drooling and imaging herself having that microwave.

"I think we should be more concern about how the Hell does Snake survive like that!" Flash pointed out.

Wiz: Under the effects of microwaves, a normal man's skin would deteriorate in about two to three seconds. Snake lasted more than three minutes.

"Must've put on a lot of sunscreens for that." Sunset commented.

Boomstick: And any guy that can last three minutes is a goddamn stallion. Now I know why they call him "Solid". But seriously, this guy is built Tonka tough, though he's hardly perfect. His OctoCamo provides only light protection against knives and other weapons, and even though he's in peak physical condition, one well-placed bullet will put him down as easily as any other man.

"Even the toughest animals can't tank a bullet to the head." Fluttershy stated.

"Not like his age will get in the way." Trixie said.

Wiz: Also, cloning and nanomachines don't mix. By the time he was thirty-five years old, they caused Snake to begin aging rapidly and even suffer heart issues and seizures.

"Never mind." Trixie said.

Boomstick: Old and wrinkly or not, you can count on Solid Snake to see every single mission through. And be a badass the whole time! There's a reason he's known as the man who makes the impossible possible.

"I'm liking this guy now!" Rainbow Dash smiled.

Snake: I'm no hero. Never was. Never will be.

Meryl: You haven't changed at all, Snake.

"At least he has friends who believe in him." Flash said.

Sam Fisher

Wiz: Samuel Leo Fisher was born in Towson, Maryland in 1957.

Boomstick: Woah, he's older than I thought!

"Must be a really healthy old man to be in a fight like this." Applejack commented surprise.

Background

Full name: Samuel Leo Fisher

Born: April 17, 1957

Height: 5'10"/178 cm

Weight: 170 lbs/77 kg

Ambidextrous

Possesses the Fifth Freedom: The legal right to break the law in order to uphold the greater good (Sunset is surprised by this)

Proficient in Krav Maga

Apparently owns an Elephant (Fluttershy smiles for this)

Wiz: Orphaned at a young age, he spent his youth at a military boarding school. His goal was to join the C.I.A. and follow in the footsteps of his late father.

"Different from how Snake was pulled into the life is spies." Flash pointed out.

Boomstick: Sam's career in government work was an impressive one, joining both the C.I.A. and the Navy Seals. During this time, he found he had a particular knack for espionage and ladies. See, on one of his missions, he fired off a few rounds into the wrong target and knocked her up. So, he married her, they had a daughter named Sarah, and Sam Fisher lived happily ever after... No wait, he got divorced after three years, and his ex died of ovarian cancer.

"Oh dear, that must've been hard for Sam." Rarity worried.

"Hopefully, the elephant will comfort Sarah." Fluttershy said.

Wiz: Left with no other family but his daughter, Sam retired at just 47 years old. This time, he'd spend the rest of his days in peace...

"Or did he?" Pinkie asked with a grin. Then they heard Wiz and Boomstick laughing together.

"Guess it means the retirement didn't last long." Sunset said.

"Not when you're so good at something." Trixie stated.

Wiz: As if! We all know how it goes. Sam was too good to leave the agent's life forever, and was recruited by Third Echelon, a top-secret sub-branch of the NSA. Third Echelon wanted Sam for their new Black Ops unit, focused on infiltrating impenetrable locations, extracting information, and escaping even the most impossible scenarios. They called it the Splinter Cell program.

Boomstick: Oh yeah, let me come out of retirement and do that! The completely impossible!

"Like what? Scare a guy so much that he'd wet himself?" Spike asked.

Sam sneaks behind guard and has him in a chokehold and walk for a bit.

Sam: Talk but talk quietly.

Guard: I'll tell ya anything, I'm the biggest coward you've ever met!

Sam: That's quite a claim.

Guard: I've already wet myself!

Sam: Well... then you've made the top ten.

"Sheesh, what a wimp of a guard." Rainbow Dash disappointed that guard gave up so easily.

"They must not pay him enough." Rarity agreed with Rainbow Dash.

Boomstick: Well luckily, like other agents of stealth, Sam Fisher didn't have to work alone.

"Please, tell me it's not another one like that Octo guy?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"It's Octacon." Twilight corrected the name.

Support

Name: Anna Grímsdóttir

A.K.A.: Grim Reaper

Technical Operations Officer for Fourth Echelon

A master hacker

Was temporarily the director of Third Echelon

Acts as an extension of Sam's eyes and ears on the field

Wiz: His support comes from Anna Grimsdottir, or Grim, who communicates with Sam through subdermal implants in his ear.

Boomstick/Pinkie: Ewww!

"It's not as bad as you think." Twilight said.

Wiz: It's just a tiny earpiece which operates by directly vibrating the bones of his inner ear, so only Sam can hear her.

Boomstick: So she's vibrating his bones, eh?

Wiz: What is with you today?

Boomstick: I don't know...

"You were probably thinking of something naughty again." Rarity rolled her eyes.

Wiz: Grim is a world-class hacker who started as Third Echelon's lead programmer and might be aging backwards... but that's irrelevant.

"I must know her secret!" Rarity demanded while Applejack holds her back.

"She probably just keeps taking care of herself like how you keep yourself beautiful every day!" Applejack pointed out to calm down her girlfriend which works, for the moment.

"My house, tonight, bring your toothbrush." Rarity whispered in Applejack's ear making her shocked blush.

Wiz: Together, they are a formidable team, although Sam and Grim have very different approaches to a mission and can sometimes butt heads. While Grim is very by-the-books, Fisher prefers to follow his instincts. For better or worse, he will completely abandon a well-laid plan over a mere hunch. Surprisingly, this works out better than you'd think.

"Sounds like something a main hero would do." Pinkie smiled.

Boomstick: See? You don't always have to plan out every little detail about every little thing!

Wiz: I thought we agreed never to discuss that trip.

Boomstick: I just wanted a churro, but no, it wasn't in the schedule! Bet it was delicious...

Wiz: Oh, shut up, Boomstick.

Boomstick: I'll kill you.

"Sheesh, those two sure go butting heads with each other." Trixie commented.

"That's how they are." Flash said.

"Excuse me but are we not going to talk about how Sam KILLED THAT DOG!" Fluttershy shouted in rage scaring the others. She's most likely going to root for Sam's death.

Wiz: Grim directs Sam's movements, keeping him invisible on the field, along with the latest in stealth gear.

"Glad to know he comes prepared as well." Trixie grinned.

Weapons & Equipment

Five-SeveN pistol: Uses armor-piercing SS198 rounds

SC-20K M.A.W.S.: Can switch into assault rifle, shotgun, and sniper rifle attachments. Deploys miscellaneous ammo including sticky shockers, rubber bullets, and sticky cameras

Mark VIII Tactical Operations Suit: 8 mm thick, weighs 4 Lbs. Composed of Kevlar, RhinoPlate, and Gore-Tex

Multi-Vision Goggles: Capable of night, thermal, and sonar vision

Boomstick: He sports the Mark VIII Tactical Operations suit, a light diffusing black armor that's layered with Kevlar and RhinoPlate to help protect against bullets.

Wiz: Along with a layer of Gor-Tex, a material that suppresses his heat signature to make him invisible to night vision.

Boomstick: Speaking of night vision, Sam has that, and more. His Multi-Vision goggles come equipped with thermal vision, sonar, a zoom function, and even footprint tracking, to ensure that Fisher can see you, even if you can't see him. In fact, he's so stealthy, that while he can track footprints left behind by others, his own trail is completely undetectable, even by him! I'd say that he's the stealthiest man ever, if it weren't for the THREE GIANT GREEN LIGHTS COMING OFF HIS HEAD! Come on, dude!

"Yeah, that could lead him to being spotted pretty easily." Trixie believed.

"I don't know, I think those lights are also invisible to the naked eye." Sunset pointed out.

Wiz: Common misconception. As obvious as they may appear, those lights are actually invisible to a normal human eye.

"See." Sunset smiled.

Boomstick/Trixie: Really?

Boomstick: Well, that's too bad for his enemies, because Sam excels at killing efficiently. While lurking in the shadows, he takes aim with his favorite pistol, the semi-automatic Five-Seven, a compact firearm that's perfect for silent, quick kills.

"But what about is someone spots him?" Applejack asked.

"Hope he drops dead." Fluttershy muttered to herself.

Wiz: And if someone manages to spot him, unlikely as it may be, Fisher is more then prepared to take them head-on with his SC-20K Modular Assault Weapons System.

"That's a mouthful of a weapon." Flash commented.

Boomstick: This beaut is like the Swiss army knife of guns. It has an assault rifle mode, shotgun mode, sniper rifle, oh, she can be whatever you want her to be...

Wiz: Um, Boomstick...

"What was weird." Twilight surprised.

Boomstick: What! Whoa, yeah (clears throat), as versatile as she is, that's nothing compared to the amount of things she fires. Aside from bullets, the 20K can launch gas and EMP grenades, sticky shockers, rubber bullets, and even cameras which attach to the wall.

"Camera bullets? Now I've seen them all." Rainbow Dash surprised.

Wiz: After their titanium spikes anchor them in place, Fisher uses his built-in communications device, the OPSAT, to monitor them. These cameras have night, thermal, and electromagnetic field vision.

"Spying from a different angle." Sunset interested in that.

Boomstick: Sam's got so many ways to take on his opponents, it's hard to count all the impressive stuff he's done.

Feats

Has infiltrated both the CIA and Third Echelon itself

Evaded four snipers looking for him

Can headshot four people before the last man can draw his gun

Prevented World War III on multiple occasions

Completed a training course so silently, his superiors didn't realize he had even started

Boomstick: He's carried out more than a dozen missions, went all Liam Neeson and recused his daughter from kidnappers, and has even infiltrated the CIA itself, which... probably isn't easy.

"It's not from what Trixie heard." Trixie said.

Wiz: He has single-handedly prevented a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, foiled terrorist plans to destroy the world's oil supply - all of it -, and when he discovered that Third Echelon was corrupt from within, he took it down by teaming up with Grim to create... Fourth Echelon.

"Couldn't they have come up with a better name than that?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Maybe they wanted to make so the next generation does better." Flash guessed.

Boomstick: In combat, he's insanely fast and accurate on the quick draw. Even when surrounded, he can put four bullets in four skulls in 3.2 seconds. He can literally take a life in the blink of an eye. Despite his age, nature hasn't slowed Sam down at all. I don't know about you, but I'll be thinking twice before stepping into any shadows.

"Now I'll have to careful with shadows." Flash said.

Lambert: Fisher, it's starting to look like war is unavoidable. JCOS is asking all sources for current Division level intelligence.

Sam: So, besides stopping World War Three, is there anything else I can do for you this evening?

"Drop dead, you dog killer." Fluttershy glared.

"She's never going to let that go, is she?" Trixie asked Sunset.

"Not unless Sam loses this battle." Sunset said.

Wiz: All right, the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all.

Boomstick: It's time for a STEALTH BATTLE!

"Hey, different shout for this episode. Nice." Pinkie impressed.

Secret Zanzibar Research Facility

Status: Abandoned

Target: Data files on Meta patients #05, #09, #13 and experimental human enhancement drug

Location: North Zanzibar forest

0400 Hours July 10, 2018

"Why are most of those words crossed out?" Spike asked.

"Maybe since this is about spies, they want to make the scene like it possible with secrets and stuff." Trixie theorized. But Sunset feels like there's a different meaning to this.

In a North Zanzibar forest on July 10, 2018, there is a secret research facility containing data that has information on meta-human testing. Solid Snake arrives in a helicopter and prepares to arrive in the facility as he receives a call from Otacon.

Otacon: OK Snake, I've finished uploading the building schematics to your Solid Eye. The intel we need is inside. Should be a piece of cake, but... there's one heat signature inside.

Snake: Just one?

Otacon: Yeah. Maybe everyone's out for a late-night dinner?

Snake: Thanks, Otacon. Piece of cake.

Snake then enters the building.

"I think I know who's that one heat signature is." Twilight said.

"Well, I got mine right here." Flash patted his hand on Sunset's hip.

"Oh, you." Sunset chuckled.

Meanwhile, Sam Fisher is finishing uploading the data both he and Snake were sent out to retrieve, having taken down a few guards beforehand. Sam hears Snake's helicopter leaves the area.

"Of course, he would hear the helicopter." Applejack shook her head.

Sam: Grim, we haven't had a chopper in the plan, have we?

Grim is monitoring Sam's progress through a plane above the area.

Grim: No, the Paladin is your evac plan. Why?

Sam: Hmmm, we got a party crasher.

Sam quickly takes out the USP drive with the data transfer complete.

"For a spy party that's about to start." Pinkie punned.

Grim: Your new friend won't last long, there's only one way into that room.

Sam and Snake slowly sneak up to each other on opposite sides of the wall.

Sam: Don't lecture me, he's mine.

Otacon: Snake, he's in the room...!

"Obviously." Rainbow Dash said.

The two soldiers point their guns at each other and are surprised (with the iconic Metal Gear !).

"Okay, that was funny." Flash laughed as the others agree as they are laughing at this.

They both hide back, then Sam comes back and tries to shoot Snake. Snake counters him and knocks Sam's gun out of his hand before delivering some punches. Snake takes his gun out and looks at the computer Sam was using. Sam then shoots the computer and destroys it.

"Smart thinking to keep the enemy from getting the data from that." Sunset impressed.

Snake: Where's the data?

Sam: Wouldn't you like to know?

Sam and Snake exchange more punches and bullets before Sam kicks Snake forward and takes out his SC-20K and has it on assault rifle mode. Snake dodges the bullets with his acrobatic skills. Sam then comes around the corner and sees a cardboard box sneaking around. He then hides at the next corner.

Sam: Grim, did you get that?

"Bet he didn't expect the use of cardboard box in stealth missions. Quite the trick." Trixie commented.

Sam: I'm fine. He's after the data.

Grim: Just our luck, I'll bring the plane in for you.

Sam: Don't. This guy's gonna be a problem if I don't take care of him now.

Grim: But it's more important that-

Sam: No!

Sam shoots two cameras into the ceiling to monitor his enemy.

Sam: Trust me Grim.

"Sam's not taking any chances." Flash said.

Snake calls Otacon on his codec.

Snake: I'm not alone. Somebody beat me to the intel and destroyed the source. Think he's with Praying Mantis? Raven Sword?

Otacon: If they're operating out here, it couldn't possibly be anyone we're familiar with. I'll start scanning radio frequencies to see if I can find any comm lines, but Snake... Until we know what you're up against, I suggest you keep yourself out of sight.

Snake: I already got it covered.

Otacon: Please tell me it's not a cardboard box.

The codec ends. Snake is in the men's restroom with the cardboard box.

Snake: Do I need to go over this again? The cardboard box is a very important tool for infiltration missions. It's ideal for fooling the enemy.

"To fools like those Metal Gears and idiot bodyguards, but I'm not so sure about Sam." Spike stated.

In the dark hallway, Fisher has his Multi-Vision goggles on as he tracks Snake's footprints into the restroom. He encounters the box and shoots a camera into the wall behind it as Snake's codec starts again.

"Now he got him cornered." Rarity said.

Otacon: Snake, this is insane.

Snake: Otacon, I'm not exaggerating when I say the success of my mission hinges on how I use this cardboard box. But in the end, a cardboard box...

Sam shoots the box three times and kicks it over to discover no one's inside.

"What the… Where is he?" Fluttershy shocked.

"He must've gotten out of the box before Sam came in!" Rainbow Dash guessed.

Snake sneaks up behind Sam with his camouflage suit making him visible again.

Snake: ...is only made of paper.

"Like Trixie said, quite the trick." Trixie smirked.

Snake armlocks Sam's head but Sam elbows him and flips his way out. They exchange punches and bullets again and Snake throws Sam onto the ground as he loses the flash drive, allowing Snake to pick it up and contact Otacon.

Snake: Otacon, I've got the intel.

"But for how long?" Applejack asked.

Sam gets up and shoots Snake in the stomach, injuring him and hides in the shadows. Snake activates the invisibility on his suit as Grim contacts Sam.

Grim: Sam, I'm sending you a camera feed. Whatever suit he's wearing is powered by electricity.

"Way to be a spoiler." Pinkie said.

Sam: Perfect.

Sam throws his EMP grenade into the room, disabling Snake's invisibility. Snake points the gun but finds no one there, then struggles with his gunshot wound. Sam took the time to escape into the vents.

"Sam will need to think of a new way to take down Snake and get the data back." Sunset pointed out.

Grim: That was close. You're welcome by the way.

Sam: I lost the data!

Grim: Oh, wonderful. Well, without his suit, he's not hiding anywhere.

Sam comes out of the vents and approaches a door.

Grim: He's just behind that door. Go get it back, old man.

Sam: This is too easy...

"Until something happens to make it very hard." Rainbow Dash said, getting excited as this battle rages on.

Sam: Ugh! What is that?

Grim: I don't know! Somebody's interfering!

Otacon: Hello? Is this thing on?

Grim: Who is this?! Identify yourself!

Otacon: I'm Otacon. I'm impressed! Your security's pretty state of the art. Not good enough though, sorry.

"Grimm just got hacked!" Twilight surprised, seeing Octacon hacking Grimm's system.

Grim: What? How long have you been listening in?

Otacon: Long enough. But right now Ms. Grim, I've got to shut you down.

The technology in the Paladin starts going haywire and exploding as the plane also starts going down.

Grim: Ahh! Sam?! Sam, do you copy? SAM?!

Sam: Grim? Are you there? Are you okay?

"Now Sam is on his own." Flash said.

"Just in time for the final clash." Sunset added.

All the lights in the facility start shutting down, prompting Sam to put on his goggles. He goes into the room and starts looking as Snake, smoking a cigarette, prepares to attack him.

Snake: You're pretty good...

The quote continuously echoes in the background, using Ocelot's voice clip from Metal Gear Solid. Snake and Fisher continuously fire off shots at each other in the dark.

Otacon: Snake? SNAKE?! SNAAAAAAAAAAKE!

(Ocelot's 'Pretty... Good...' voice clip from Metal Gear Solid 3's Virtuous Mission clip echoes in the background.)

"That Octacon is such a worrywart." Pinkie giggled.

"Like Fluttershy with things scaring her." Sunset said.

"It's true." Fluttershy nodded, not denying it one bit.

Sam fires off his assault rifle as Snake dodges the bullets. The bullets take out the windows, bringing light into the room. Sam takes off his goggles as Snake sneaks up to him and suplexes him, knocking away Sam's gun.

"Now it's gonna be hands-to-hands!" Rainbow Dash excitedly.

They both then take out their knives and clash. Sam manages to get a good cut on Snake and gets the data back.

Sam: Gotcha.

"Wow, that was sneaky fast! I'm impressed." Rainbow Dash commented.

"But it won't be in his hands for long." Flash said, getting a gut feeling that Snake will win.

Snake gets the upper hand on Sam and stabs him a couple of times with his knife and then electrocutes Fisher as his opponent drops the data. Snake then stabs the spy through the head with his own knife, killing him instantly. As the dead Fisher falls down with the two fatal knife injuries, Snake catches the data and smokes a cigarette.

Snake: Piece of cake.

Snake rides off in his helicopter as the Paladin crashes down into the facility, presumably killing Grim as well.

"YES! YES! YES!" Fluttershy shouted in pure joy, surprising her friends.

"Down with the dog murder! Now all dogs will never have to be killed by Sam!" Fluttershy cheered.

"At least she's happy." Flash commented.

Boomstick: Holy Hell!

Wiz: Both Snake and Fisher were experts in their field. Snake may come second to Fisher's skills of silent assassination, but he far exceeds him in close quarters combat thanks to his specialized training.

Boomstick: Even though Sam was a master of blending into the shadows, Snake's Solid Eye had no trouble tracking him down.

"Something Sam wasn't prepared for." Rarity said.

Wiz: What's more, Grim's comm line has a history of being hacked into while Snake's codec does not.

"Poor Grimm, guess she should've known better than to buff up her security." Twilight sighed.

Boomstick: But what about Snake's nanomachines and Solid Eye? Wouldn't they be disabled by the EMP blast?

"Yeah, wouldn't that have left him a big disadvantage?" Spike wondered about that too.

Wiz: Actually... no. EMPs are comparable to microwaves in how they affect electronics. When Snake was bombarded with microwaves, his Solid Eye survived for two minutes of non-stop radiation, while his nanomachines remained intact throughout the entire experience. A single EMP grenade doesn't quite stack up to a hallway of microwaves.

Boomstick: Even if he did lose his nanomachines somehow, he didn't need them to beat Sam.

"Oh, hardcore!" Spike amazed.

Wiz: Overall Snake has a counter for anything Fisher could throw at him and had the edge in close quarters combat, leaving this victory pretty straightforward.

"More like straight up through the head." Pinkie joked.

Boomstick: Poor Sam. This loss just kinda snuck up on him. Yeah, from the start, it was lights out for Sam.

Everyone except for Pinkie Pie groans from those bad puns.

Wiz: The winner is Solid Snake.

"That was thrilling! You guys certainly know how to keep yourself entertained! In fact, that spy battle has inspired me to work on a new trick for my next show!" Trixie announced before running off to practice that trick.

"Bet it'll be a good one." Flash said.

"Until then, we enjoy more of these episodes." Sunset said as she pressed the next episode

KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!

This has been a stealth episode for the others to see with unexpected things such as Trixie joining them for one episode, and Fluttershy let out her inner anger on Sam when the scene shows him killing a dog. Sam's lucky he didn't get the Stare.

Let that be a warning to all of you, never anger the Fluttershy.
