Winter 2162 / Friday / 11:00 PM

Snow.

Something I've never seen before in Texas. It was clean, white, dry, and perfect for pegging people with snowballs. I went outside, and it was still snowing pretty hard, but not like blizzard hard. I then packed a snowball together and pegged Rainbow with it, who was still flying overhead. I then turned away as quickly as possible and started whistling a tune.

"I know that was you!" She made a snow cloud drop a butt load of snow on me, but luckily I'm one of those people who doesn't get cold easily, as if I had anti-freeze in my blood, the non-poisonous kind. I walked out of the snow pile like a boss, and Rainbow was shocked that I didn't even have goosebumps.

"SNOWBALL FIGHT!!!" I yelled into the crowd, and complete chaos roared from the usually quiet town of Ponyville. I ducked behind cover and Rainbow followed in behind me. I think it was time to pull out my new invention, a snowball gun, fully automatic shooting about 1 snowball per second. I know this was cheating, but you do what you gotta do when you're pinned down from all sides. Once they all knocked out each other, there was only me, Rainbow, and Pinkie Pie... There was something going on with my radio, Nick was saying something to me in a British accent.

"Sir the fecal matter and wind levels in the area are rising!" What? I need him to speak in a way I can understand.

"Speak in god damn English soldier!"

"There's a Shit Storm approaching!"

"Oh right, it's Pinkie Pie, of course it's a shit storm..." I was then shot at by Pinkie's Party Cannon, converted to shoot snow piles. She actually got me right in the chest, it blew me back a good ten yards before I landed in a snow pile. I got up and got her back with a snowball to her abdomen, she stumbled back and gave a grumpy grunt.

"Ooh, putting up a resistance? I like that!" She put on a combat helmet, with forest camouflage. I loaded a fresh munition of snow into my gun, and I blind fired it. I recklessly jumped out of cover and she got me, she was waiting for me. I coughed as I got back up, only to be shot down again, I crawled to Pinkie.

"Are you going to surrender to me?" I got the jump on her, I pulled out a detonator.

"Never..." I triggered a snow explosion, in which it encased both Pinkie Pie and I in snow. We were both laughing, I got out of the snow, carrying a frozen Pinkie, who was shivering to death.

"Rainbow, I need 1 cup of hot chocolate STAT!" She zoomed off, and just as quickly zoomed back with a thermos. I then gave it to Pinkie, who slurped down the warm chocolate drink. Once that little skirmish was over I had a radio transmission, it was from the SOC.

"Delta 0-1, do you copy?"

"Copy that Overlord, what's the situation?"

"Representatives from the Griffon Empire have been kidnapped. We need you and two others to rescue them from the Griffon Terrorist Party."

"Copy that, E.T.A. about 1 hour." I then went into the vault downstairs, putting on my kevlar body armor, and my combat fatigues. I went back upstairs where I saw Helena and Jhon get ready as well, but also to see Rainbow in tears.

"You're leaving again, aren't you?" I silently nodded, and I holstered Goldie with a few extra magazines.

"Well Rainbow, we gotta make peace with the Griffons somehow. Isn't one of your best friends a Griffon?" She kinda looked away and tried to avoid the question.

"Yes... She WAS a friend of mine, but I found out that she was a total jerk."

"Did she ever try to apologize?" She nodded.

"Well, you have to give others a second chance, that's what we're doing with the Griffon Empire right now." I replaced my combat fatigues and went into the automatic dresser to put on my ODST armor. Jhon pulled up the Humvee and I rode shotgun, and Helena was in the backseat. I decided for Jhon to drive because he's Asian, he'll get us there the fastest, and he's our best driver. In an hour we made it the Special Operations Command, the bad thing is that we almost ran over a few ponies, we didn't hit them though thanks to Jhon's Asian driving.

"Alright, the here are the co-ordinates. You'll be going into the caverns on the Griffon Empire." Great, I just loooooove caves. I took a bandolier from the armory, as well as a Benelli M4 Shotgun. We then loaded the Humvee with Nitrogen fuel and we headed out for the two hour trip to the next country.

"Alright, Helena, you keep a lookout from the top of the cliffside. Jhon, you're coming inside with me." I said, we all the polarized our Visors and we all went to our designated positons. I took out my shotgun just in case something were to happen, we then were stopped by a bolted shut iron door.

"Alright, we're gonna breach. By the look of it they're behind this door." I placed C-5 on the door, and detonated it. Jhon threw a flashbang and we headed inside, I shot the two trying to rush me and I saw that one of the Griffon's held the representative captive, threatening to kill the hostage. Jhon, like the Asian he is, threw a knife and killed the captor, and he dropped the hostage.

"Drew, you got an ass load of hostiles closing in on the entrance, I advise that you hurry the fuck up." This is a race against time, Helena estimated about 10 minutes until they arrived at the front door. I carried both hostages over my shoulder, and Jhon was covering me from behind. We then loaded into the car, and I took control of the mounted minigun. Jhon punched the gas, and I was tearing up, mowing them down every time they tried to come back up.

"Whoever you are, thank you." One of the rescued captives said, I let him sleep in the car while I was on the roof, just chillin'. I guess the SOC doesn't like it when other teams deal with hostage situations, especially when the hostages are V.I.P.'s. Even though I pretty much co-founded the SOC, I don't really participate in it unless the emergency is dire, the little things such as civilian hostage rescues, and support for counter-terrorism ops go through other units. MY team in particular has to deal with escorts, counter-terrorism, and V.I.P. hostage rescues. Once we made it into Canterlot, Celestia ordered me to come with her to the meeting, because I am somewhat the leader of Equestria's Special Forces.

"Oh great, a meeting, woohoo." I twirled my finger around in a spiral, I seated myself next to my older, older cousin, and we began. I could feel the tension in this room, even though it was supposed to be making peace negotiations.

"The Empire is doing quite well your highness, but we need of assistance to rid it of the remnants of what the Ultranationalist Party is today. I heard rumors among their groups, they spoke of demons that were told to be invincible, and have robots. Perhaps if one of those 'demons,' could help us with that situation, the Griffon Emperor would be willing to sign a peace treaty." I just started laughing, because I was looking at iFunny on my datapad, and I looked up to see that both ambassadors and Celestia were looking at me funny.

"Oh and about those, 'Demons,' I would rather prefer the term, human, or soldier." They just eyeballed me, and their mouths were hanging wide open.

"Y-you're the demon the others were talking about?!" One of them started to panic, but I tried my best to put out the fire.

"No, no, no. There are five of us in all!" I think that freaked him out a bit more, I think he was high when we rescued him or something. I think Celestia was amused with the way I handle things, because she tried to cover up her giggle with her hoof, but I could see that smile wide open.

"I mean, yes, we did wipe out most of them. The only reason is because they attacked us first, and they happen to be dealing with a new species that happen to own superior technology." I pointed over to Celestia, who was playing with a wad of Gak, when she noticed she hid the gooey substance behind her back. We then walked a bit more, and we eventually came up with a solution. We were going to go with the original plan to make a peace treaty, or just make peace with the Griffons.

"Well, it's been a pleasure meeting you human. We bid thee farewell!" I waved them off as well as the Alicorn sisters, and then I noticed it was the afternoon.

"I think it's about time for some afternoon tea. Would you like to join us Drew?" Luna asked, I used by British accent for this one.

"That would be splendid luv." I held her chin for a second, but I saw those rosy cheeks before I turned away and into the kitchen. My leg then started hurting, I lifted my pant leg to see why it was hurting. For some reason it had a long gash running down the middle, I quickly turned into an Alicorn and did the first aid spell. The first aid spell has saved a lot of lives from what I've heard, I learned it from the Unicorn Doctor back at the Canterlot Hospital. I bet someone would ask me, "Drew, why don't you just go to the hospital?" I'm like, "Nigga please, ain't nobody got time for dat!" Or I'm like, "One does not simply go to the hospital all the time."

I walked in on the chef who runs the Canterlot Castle's kitchen, and he seemed upset.

"Where is the flour?! I can't find the flour!" I then made one appear out of thin air, I was still an Alicorn after my first aid spell. I think I'm gonna have to get used to being an Alicorn, because when I'm 1000 years old, who wants to see a shriveled up old man? Unless if I'm like Celestia, who never seems to age. I do age, but I do look older when I do, but I guess it's possible I will stop aging at some point.

"Tea m'lady?" I mocked, and I actually made Luna blush, how sweet. I then sat down at the table and started sippin on my tea, since it was winter I couldn't complain it wasn't iced tea.

"I think peace negotiations went rather successful. Don't you think?" Celestia asked, both Luna and I nodded and took another sip of tea. I took out a basket of crumpets, and put it on the table, both of their eyes widened, I took one for myself and took a bite.

"I think I should be leaving..." I got up and brushed away crumbs from my lap.

"Drew wait, I need to tell you something. You need to go to the Griffon Empire tomorrow night. They want to see the one who decimated the Ultranationalist army."

"Well, I didn't do it alone. Do I have permission to take my crew?" She nodded, I then did that Freddie Mercury pose, Luna laughed at me of course. I thanked them for the afternoon tea session and I walked out of the room and went into my own. I looked around the place, I haven't used it in a while. I stayed in here for the night, I think a small overnight stay would do me the trick, but I was dead wrong...
