"AHHHH!" Gore screamed as he brought his blade down on a sparring dummy. He completely broke the wooden dummy in half. He was angry, angry that the COLTS had once again foiled his plans.

"Calm down General." Von Griffon said to the enraged griffon.

"Yes sire." Gore said as he lowered his sword. He was beginning to think that COLTS Omega was unkillable. They had survived absolutely everything he had thrown at them. Were they... immortal? Had Celestia cast some ancient spell which granted them immortality? Gore was beginning to think these thoughts. The griffons had come so close to victory. The COLTS were all dead and the changelings had allied with the griffons and the ponies had lost all battles. Equestria would have fallen had it not been for the COLTS and the crystal ponies last minute rescue.

"You look troubled general." Von Griffon said.

"There are a great many things troubling me sire. These COLTS are unkillable! And now we have to fight them AND the crystal ponies!" Gore said.

"I will see to it that the crystal kingdom burns to the ground and that Rubios and Emeralda are banished to the deepest layer of Tarterus." Von Griffon said. "But first we must finish what we started and destroy Equestria."

"But how? Every last plan in my arsenal proved futile against the COLTS!" Gore said.

"Than you will have to find another General." Von Griffon said walking out. "After all it IS your job."

Applejack had not left Skullcrusher's side. The orange mare could not believe that he was still alive, even after all that had just transpired.

"Calm down honey, I'm still here." Skullcrusher said as Applejack continued to hug him.

"Ah'm sorry it's just that ah thought you were dead and-" Applejack said.

"Well I was dead." Skullcrusher said as Applejack sobbed again at the thought of Skullcrusher dying.

"Well that was a poor choice of words." Skullcrusher thought. He leaned forward and grabbed her hoof where the ring he got her was. "Hey, are we still getting married?" He asked trying to change the subject.

"Of course we are!" Applejack said. The mention of her wedding helped improve her mood.

"Well we better start the planning eh?" He said as the couple sat and planned their wedding.

"How in the hell did I get myself dragged into this?" Autumn asked himself as he followed Rarity.

"Now now Autumn, the spa could be good for you and Silent Shadow. It does wonders for Fluttershy and I." Rarity said.

"Yeah but Shadow and I aren't mares. A stallion going to a spa isn't very manly." Autumn said. He could only imagine what his brothers would say if they found out he had a hooficure and makeover.

"Oh but Autumn you are definition of manly. Strong, handsome, polite, a sweetheart." Rarity said as she rubbed her hooves through Autumn's mane.

"I hate it when you do that." Autumn said smiling. Rarity let out a smile as she won the battle. It is true that once a mare earns a stallions charm, he will do anything for her. Autumn and Rarity went over to the room Fluttershy was staying in. Rarity knocked gently on the door as she waited for the pegasus to respond.

"Fluttershy? Darling are you in there?" Rarity asked.

"Um, yes." Fluttershy timidly said as she opened the door and poked her head out. "Oh hello Rarity."

"Hello Fluttershy, are you and Shadow ready to go the spa?" Rarity asked.

"Oh I'm certainly ready but I don't think Shadow wants to go." Fluttershy said.

"Why do you say that?" Rarity asked. Fluttershy pointed towards the bed where Shadow had an iron grip on.

"I see, Autumn could you be a sweetheart and get Shadow for my friend?" Rarity asked fluttering her eyes.

"Damn it." Autumn sighed. He could never say no when she fluttered her eyes like that. "Shadow lets just get this over with."

"NO!" Shadow yelped.

"Shadow do not make me go in there and drag your sorry ass out here!" Autumn said.

"NO!" Shadow yelled again.

"Listen I don't wanna go either so suck it up and come out!" Autumn said.

"I said NOOO!" Shadow yelled as he fired the bed against the door to barricade it.

"Oh you wanna play that way huh?" Autumn said as he reared up and bucked the door with all his might. The door shattered but the bed still blocked the doorway with Shadow holding it from the other side.

"COME OUT!" Autumn yelled as he ran into the mattress trying to move it.

"I dont want to!" Shadow replied as he pushed from the other side. Rarity and Fluttershy stared as the two stallion fought for domination. Shadow tried to push but Autumn was the stronger of the two and he eventually pulled the mattress out of the doorway. Autumn ran into the room and after a few seconds came out dragging Shadow behind him.

"*Huff* Lets *huff*huff* go!" Autumn said out of breath. The four ponies headed for Canterlot Spa. Fluttershy and Rarity were excited but Autumn and Shadow were somewhat less than pleased.

"We are so boned if Blitz finds us here." Shadow said.

"Don't worry, what are the odds he is-" Autumn began to say.

"AUTUMN! SHADOW!" Blitz said popping out of nowhere.

"AHHH!" Shadow and Autumn yelled.

"BLITZ! What are you doing?" Autumn asked. "And why is your coat so dirty?"

"Oh well Pinkie and I were having a cupcake eating contest and then we got covered in chocolate so we decided to come here to take a bath." Blitz said.

"Blitz you do realize this is a spa right?" Autumn asked.

"Yeah and?" Blitz said.

"A spa is a place MARES not stallions go to right?" Autumn asked.

"Well you two are here aren't you?" Blitz asked. Autumn opened his mouth to speak but no words came out of his mouth.

"Just give up Autumn, he won." Shadow said.

"Come on now! The spa is fun! You can get hooficures, mudbaths, massages and lots of other goodies!" Pinkie said hopping around.

"Pinkie is right dear, besides do you really think anypony who sees you will honestly say anything?" Rarity asked. The COLTS thought about it for a minute. They were known as COLTS all across Canterlot and nopony in their right mind would say anything to offend the supersoldiers.

"Well okay I guess it can't be that bad." Shadow said. The six ponies walked into the spa.

"Excuse me sirs." The spa owner said.

"Yes ma'am?" Autumn asked.

"Please remover your armor, its putting cracks in the ground." The COLTS looked down and saw that their several hundred pound armor along with their great weight had proved too much for the delicate tile floor and cracks were beginning to form.

"Alright boys, take em off." Autumn said as he and the other COLTS began the process of taking off their heavy armor. Immediately all the mares in the room looked with lust and admiration in their eyes at the COLTS large, toned, and muscular bodies. Rarity immediately gave the evil eye to every mare eyeing Autumn.

"Alright what now?" Shadow asked as he shred his last piece of armor.

"Well what would you like to receive?" The cashier asked.

"Uhhhhh." Autumn said looking to Rarity for help.

"They will take the combo package darling." Rarity said. The COLTS didn't know what that meant but the just nodded their heads and pulled out their wallets.

"This one is on us dears." The owner said.

"Really?" Blitz asked.

"Yes, you are COLTS Omega are you not?" The owner asked.

"Yes ma'am." Shadow said.

"Well for your service you receive your treatments free." The owner said moving close to Shadow and rubbing his mane. "After all, being able to massage that wondrous body of yours would be payment enough."

"Um guys?" Shadow asked backing up slowly. Fluttershy was growing nervous at seeing this but she was to scared to cause a scene.

"Alright then!" Blitz said jumping in between the mare and Shadow. "Let's get started."

"Anything else we can do for you?" The owner asked fluttering her eyes.

"Yes actually." Autumn said. "Can you give them a free treatment too?" Autumn said pointing to Pinkie Rarity and Fluttershy.

"Who are they?" A worker asked.

"Our girlfriends." Blitz said.

"GIRLFRIENDS!" The owner said. "Ah yes, girlfriends, they shall recieve their treatment free as well." The owner said distastefully. The mares and stallions were separated by gender and brought to different hot tubs. The COLTS were having a hard time fitting due to their large size and bulk but they managed.

"Autumn?" Shadow asked.

"Yea bro?" Autumn replied.

"Why was that one lady touching me like that? And what did she mean when she said being able to massage my body would be payment?" Shadow asked. Autumn slapped his face, did Shadow really not know that the mare was trying to come on to him?

"Shadow please tell me you are joking." Autumn said.

"I'm not, I was really nervous!" Shadow replied.

"Let me explain this one." Blitz said knowing Autumn would lose his temper. Blitz leaned in and whispered into Shadow's ear what the mare had tried to do.

"But why would she do that? Doesn't she know I'm with Fluttershy?" Shadow asked.

"Guess not, hey Shadow." Autumn said as he got of the hot tub.

"What?" Shadow replied.

"TIDAL WAVE!" Autumn said as he belly flopped into the tub.

"AHH!" Shadow said as a wave of water enveloped him.

"CANNONBALL!" Blitz said as he jumped in. All the water was emptied out of the tub. The stallions sat there laughing as Pinkie, Rarity, and Fluttershy discussed in their own tub.

"Can you believe the nerve of that mare trying to seduce poor Shadow!" Rarity said angrily.

"Is that what she was doing?" Fluttershy asked.

"Yes and it was a meany mean thing to do to someone like Shadow!" Pinkie said.

"Exactly!" Rarity said as she blew off her steam. "It was rather chivalrous of Autumn to ask them to give us free treatment."

"Did you all hear something?" Pinkie said as she hopped out of the water faster than they eye could see.

"What?" Rarity and Fluttershy asked as the listened for the noise that Pinkie had heard.

"Uh oh!" The three mares said.

Ten minutes earlier

"Did you see them?"

"Wait till I get my hooves around those necks!"

"I'll ravage them!" The COLTS enhanced hearing could pick up some of the stuff the other mares in the spa were saying about them. They usually have enough common sense to know the mares actually meant sexual things but exposure to combat had destroyed most of their civilian commom sense.

"Did you boys here that?!" Autumn said.

"They're trying to kill us!" Blitz said.

"I knew this spa thing was a bad idea!" Shadow said.

"Alright heres what we are gonna do." Autumn said as the three stallions huddled and discussed. The mares looking in through the peep hole were suddenly thrown back as Autumn punched down the door. The three stallions stood on their back hooves displaying their impressive heights.

"You honestly thought you could capture us?" Blitz said.

"What are you talking about!" A terrified mare cried.

"We heard what you said about ravaging us! You must be allied with the grifs!" Blitz yelled.

"COLTS we need our armor!" Autumn said as the three soldiers pounded through the walls to find their armor.

"Did you all hear something?" Pinkie asked as she popped out of the water.

"What?" Rarity and Fluttershy asked as the listened for the noise that Pinkie had heard.

"Uh oh!" The three mares said. They dove for cover as the COLTS burst through the wall.

"Rarity?" Autumn said. "Thank Celestia you are alright!" Autumn said.

"BLITZY WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Pinkie asked.

"These ponies are allied with the grifs! We could hear them plotting outside the door!" Shadow said as he grabbed Fluttershy.

"There must be a misuderstanding!" Rarity said as Autumn yanked her and charged to the waiting room. They eventually pounded their way through and quickly put on their armor.

"COLTS FALL BACK!" Autumn said as each of the COLTS picked up their mare and sprinted full speed away from the spa leaving utterly destroyed.

"Wow!" The owner said. "What a stallion!" She said before passing out.
