//------------------------------// // these times they are a Changeling. // Story: Permission to FREAK OUT!? (sequel to Lost, on the heat of battle. a TF2 and MLP crossover.) // by heavy weapons brony //------------------------------// “WAHHHHHAHAHAHAH!” Panis cupcake screamed as he flew through the trees of the everfree forest. His flight was ended when his head clashed with a giant boulder. PANG!!!!, CRACK CRASH! the rock split in two. “I can do this all day, provided i find some more booze,” a gruff voice muttered in a annoyed tone. Derp Nukem pushed her way through the bushes of the everfree and came upon Painis Cupcake. “Had enough yet? you wussy,” Derp Nukem barked. “Oooh” Soldier groaned, he rubbed his head under his helmet and opened his eyes. “You!” Soldier yelled. “Me” Derp returned, then lifted her hoof to deliver a devastating blow. Soldier quickly rolled out of the way, causing Derps hoof to collide with the broken boulder and reduce it to flying rubble. Derp felt her Ego fall by 0.05% “Dude,...not cool,” Derp growled. Soldier got to his feet and pulled out his shotgun. “Filthy snow covered communist Canadian scum! your advanced boulder torture techniques would work on me!!! i've built up and immunity!” Soldier fired his shotgun, causing a handful of pellets to bounce off Derp Nukems hard muffin lovin’ bod. Derp felt her Ego fall by 0.02% Derp narrowed her eyes and grabbed Soldier by the scruff of his neck, She scanned the forest floor for something to punish Soldier with, she found a deep hole in the ground the Boulder was covering. “Lets see how this hole, likes it in this hole!” Derp yelled then threw Soldier into the deep cave. “AHHHHHAHHAH!” Soldier screamed, as Derp turned to find a liquor store. “OOFF” “MMMF” “SONOFA” “OOOH” Soldier fell through the hole for a few seconds before finally coming to rest in a deep chamber, Soldier lifted his head. The only thing in the chamber with him was a large pool of water. Soldier smacked his lips, he was feeling thirsty, he got up and strolled over to the pool, it had a faint light, illuminating the whole cave. Soldier nelt down over the Pool, it was full of smooth undisterbed water. He grabbed a handful causing a mass of ripples and drank from it. A few more handfuls and he found himself satisfied. Solder then assessed the situation. “Right, my machine has worked, I'm back in Canada, so next thing to do is mount an attack!” Soldier smiled, then frowned. He remembered what his last visit to canada was like, he gave his situation some more thought. ‘Okay, the reason things didn’t go so well last time, is because i didn’t have a team!” He then remembered his team. “MY Team! they must be here with me!....i bet they have been captured! How am i going to free them now?” Soldier began pacing around the pool of water. “A rebellion! in every movie theres always a rebellion! i just have to find them! the heros usually find them in a bar where repetitive music is playing and there leader will be the savvy looking guy leaning in a booth! Okay so all i have too,....AHHAHAHAAH!!” As Solder paced, his foot landed on a loose stone, it gave way causing him to fall into the pool, Strangely the pool didn’t have a bottom like he expected, Instead the pool just spit him back out of the water like he fell through a mirror. Solder landed beside the pool, the picked himself up and found that he wasn't wet, and most strange of all, he was no longer alone in the cave. Before him stood and exact copy of himself standing at attention. “SPY!” Both said in unison, both pulled their shotguns and both fired at each other and both found their shots didn’t do any damage, because they were on the same team. “Hmmm,...” Soldier got an idea. “Come with me Soldier, where gonna launch an attack on Canada!” “OKAY!” The copy of Soldier said, Soldier then grabbed his copy and both jumped into the magical pool of water. Spy awoke in the middle of the everfree, his entire body felt sore from the fall. Before him lay a mangled couch that had been torn apart from the fall. “Oh,,merde” Spy muttered, he stood up and tried to remember which way town had been. “Its like christmas morning,” a familiar voice muttered from behind him. Spy tuned to see Christian brutal sniper smiling wickedly behind him. “AAAHHH! Spy screamed and lifted his cloaking watch. Fwoosh, CHANG! Before Spy could turn invisible, CBS skillfully threw a large knife at Spy, it sunk deep into his wrist and split his clocking watch in two. Spy screamed again, he removed the knife and applied pressure to his wound, then sprinted off into the forest. “Nowhere to hide now mate” CBS cackled, picked up his knife and ran after Spy. Spy desperately fought through the underbrush until his lungs burned, his vision blurred, he was begging to go into shock and die from blood loss. His run was abruptly stopped when he came upon a deep canyon, at the bottom was a swirling whirlpool, where two strange colors of water of red and blue were being mixed. Spy weighed his options, he would much rather drown then be slowly torn apart by CBS, he thought he might as well try and take CBS out with him. CBS broke through the underbrush and was met with Spy. Spy tacked CBS, CBS retaliated by shoving a knife into his back. Spy shouted while CBS cackled “How ya like that? ya backstabbing spook! I WIN.” “I Think not,” Spy said smugly through his pain and used his body weight to pull CBS over the edge and into the whirlpool below, Spy And CBS punched and kicked each other as the where spun and sucked down into the drain of the whirlpool. Soldier paced in front of the mass of 350 copies of himself, all idely waiting at attention in a neat platoon formation. Soldier cleared his throat. “If fighting is sure the result in victory then YOU MUST FIGHT!!!!....sun zoo said that,.. and i think he knows a little bit more about fighting than you do pal because he invented it,..then perfected it so no living man could best him in the ring of honor!” The changeling stood guard by the riverbed, all the camps near the river where being attacked recently and the guard had been doubled, if the attack on ponyville was going to be successful we had to keep out troops stationed at all fronts of ponyville. “HUFFF!” The guard felt a hot steamy breath on the back of his neck, he turned to find himself face to face with a huge red stallion, the changeling froze with fear. “HUFF!” another breath soaked his face, causing him to sweat, he looked up and saw that the Stallion had a frightenly tall creature of sorts riding on his back, the creature was as black as shadow and red as blood, he looked down at the guard with a single piercing white eye. A flash of dim sunlight filled his eyes as his perspective changed, he flew through the air and rolled on the ground. “SOUPCAN!!” the creature shouted as he charged into the Changeling army camp, the clopping of heavy hooves was the last thing the Changeling's ears processed before all of his brain function died. “ And from that day forward every time a big ball of light is in the sky ITS CALLED A SUN!” Soldier shouted to his army of copies. “Unless ITS A STAR!” the large mass of Soldiers shouted back. “RIGHT now unto Canada!!” Solder then led his army to the mouth of the cave. “We’ll be in Vancouver before winter Boys!!” Soldier stated before a collection of Warcries and Rocket jumps shook the everfree. Dic soupcan, Scuttle Bucket and Big macintosh sad at the center of the destroyed Changeling camp around a fire. Dic downed bottles of scrumpy, Scuttle Bucket chewed on the corpses of Changelings and Big mac chewed a collection of green apples harvested from The Changelings food storage. Splash! Sploosh,,chough “HELP!!” a commotion erupted from the river, Dic grabbed his eyelander and rushed over to investigate. A pair of hands grabbed wildly from the surface of the river, Dic recognized them as Snipers hands, he quickly stuck out his sword and sniper grabbed it. Dic then pulled out Sniper and flopped him onto the bank. “*Cough *Cough,....Thanks mate,....Many thanks,” Sniper sputtered. Dic soupcan raised and eyebrow, Sniper was not known to change his voice like that, he looked down to see that the body was indeed snipers, including a trap vest and slouch cap. but his face had turned into spy’s complete with mask and cigarette. “SPYper!!!” Dic shouted, taking spyper in a warm embrace. “Shoot, ya fished another friend out of the river? at this rate those Changelings don’t stand a chance.” Big Mac mused. “Queen! Queen! urgent news from the riverside camps!” A changeling messenger shouted frantically. “Yes Yes! What is it” Queen chrysalis yelled back from her throne, The queen was a alicorn changeling with both the wings and magic of her people. “They all have been wiped out!” “ALL WIPED OUT!?” “All but one, there was a survivor,” “Bring him to me at once!” A pair of Guards dragged a bruised, beaten and bandaged Changeling into the royal tent. “Please have mercy my queen! I fought as hard as i could I,...I,” the survivor sputtered “Shut it! now think hard, over 200 of my troops are dead, i need you to remember. How many where there? where they royal guards? or where they milita?” “How many? only one,” “One Stallion wiped out my entire western front!?” “Not a stallion, far from it, he was a creature from another world, he rode a giant blood red stallion, he himself was as Dark as night,he walked one two legs and fought with two arms, he wielded quick steel and cast magic of destruction. “Wait, did you say he walked on two legs? and fought with two arms?” The Queen asked. “Yes, similar to a Diamond Dog” The Queen though for a moment, her army recently cleared out a nearby Diamond Dog den, they proved to be capable fighters but lacked in the weapons and powers of deceit the Changelings had. “You there,” The Queen pointed to a random guard “Give yourself Two arms and Two legs.” The guard did what he was told and engulfed himself in green fire, then the fire passed to reveal a strange tall and broad, anthropomorphic changeling. “Yes, i rather like this design, YOU!” She pointed to a different guard “Take this specimen to the royal blacksmith, tell him to change his designs for our weapons and armor,” Queen Chrysalis turned her attention back to the battered survivor “It looks like i’ve found a way to fight this,, demolition demon you have described,”
