//------------------------------// // Chapter 3 // Story: A war story // by Col_R4inbow_D4sh //------------------------------// Chapter 3 half the day later "Okay everypony we will move in from the right, and help those 15 battalions out." Big Mac said "They will think we are on the russian side." Rainbow answered "I know we will take that as advantage. Now let's go." Big Mac replied --------------------------------- "Spitfire, the enemy just got 2 battalions more we can't stand much longer." Fleetfoot said "Affirmative try to..." Spitfire began before getting cut off "Wait some of the tanks are shooting they're own tank..." Fleetfoot said "What why would they..." Spitfire began before getting cut off... again "Here is Captain Big Macintosh, We are in some russian vehicles and currently distracting some battalions, who is in charge of the ehmm... right side?" Big Mac asked "That's me sir, and thanks for the help." Fleetfoot answered "No problems, now listen you take advantage of that, our tanks will fallback behind them so you don't shot us and you charge in we will give fire support." Big Mac said "Big Mac I'm still giving the commands around here." Spitfire replied "I'm sorry to interrupt Spitfire but actually I am now." Rainbow said "Dash?" Spitfire asked "Yes and now that I am back in command I say listen to Big Mac." Rainbow replied "Affirmative Ma'am. You heard them Fleetfoot." Spitfire replied "Affirmative, moving in." Fleetfoot answered It took us a couple of minutes to take them out, they were so out of order some of them continued to shoot each other, but we didn't mind like that we had less Shells to waste "Okay all done here now let's get to the left side." Big Mac said We went over to the other side, It took us a little bit longer than the right side, but it was quick "Okay now that we have the then we will... ehmmm..." Big Mac didn't say anything "*Sigh*, we will go forward, into the attack, we are going to take a city called Talos next." Rainbow finished "Right." Big Mac said "Wow, wow into the attack?" Spitfire asked "Yes, I hope you know what the Plan: Typhoon means." Soarin replied "Yes I know... are you telling me..." Spitfire asked "Yes, he does." Rainbow cut off "*Sigh* Affirmative." Spitfire answered "Spitfire would be kind if you could send 1 platoon back and let them get reinforcements best would be 5 More armored Battalions and 4 mobile infantry battalions they shall send them to our mission target." Rainbow said "Ma'am yes Ma'am." Spitfire replied "Ohh and Spitfire before I forget it, your company is now added to Delta and Fleetfoot Yours to Charlie, and only to let you guys now Delta is led by Twilight and Charlie by Soarin." Rainbow said "Affirmative." Fleetfoot replied "Yes Ma'am." Spitfire said "Now that this is out of the way, Let's get going, Our next target is Talos" Rainbow said With that we went off again we had no break, no resupply, no nothing... we didn't care then. It so or so took us nearly 2 days to get there , and we didn't wanted to waste anymore time. On the way, we had a discussion on how to attack the city, I said pretty much nothing, I felt better I was nearly able to do everything like normal again, but I actually wanted to know how they deal with it. "Ma'am we are nearing the town any command?" Big Mac asked "Yes you take go though the middle, Delta left and Charlie right... Ehmm" Rainbow began, only to go silent "Ma'am no disrespect, but I think the right side is covered weakest Delta and Charlie should attack there and overrun them and then attack from behind the lines. While I distract them," Big Mac suggested "Fine, whatever then do that..." Rainbow replied a little angry "Ehmm..." Big Mac said "*Sigh* Sorry." Rainbow replied "No Problem, Now people get a move on..." Big Mac answered "Dash what's wrong?" Soarin asked "I don't know..." Rainbow replied "Dash." Soarin said "No really I don't know... Soarin." Rainbow answered "*Sigh* Get ready we are coming close." Rainbow said "*Sigh* Right..." Soarin replied The battle was ragin on for a long time they putted up heavy resistance. "Come on guys this is they're first defence line, why are you struggling to get past it?" Big Mac asked "Sir, they have very good positions, we can't,,,, Soarin began before getting cut off "Then don't let them have that advantage and push!" Big Mac answered "Yes sir," Soarin replied It still took us sometime, but we finally broke through we have gotten splitted up from the main force, it was only us and our radio has gotten damaged. "I knew we shouldn't have pushed that agressive," Soarin ranted "Ohh shush Soarin, If we wouldn't have pushed we would still fight there, and do noting productive" Rainbow replied "Yea, well better then to drive around behind enemy lines," Soarin answered "Hey soarin quick topic change... It's getting boring in here," Rainbow replied "And what do you want to do me with that?" Soarin asked "Well I wanted to asked if... I could climb onto you and shoot around with the MG on top," Rainbow replied "Well, I don't mind," Soarin shrugged "Yay!," Rainbow exclaimed I climbed onto Soarin's shoulder so he could still do his duty as commander and I was able to shoot some things with the top mounted MG and didn't needed to sit around all the time. "Just becareful up there," Soarin said "Yea, yea tell me targets and I do the rest," Rainbow replied "Okay, Well left side Infantry troop." Soarin answered "Got it... Hey Soarin I hope you know there's a enemy Tank behind us." Rainbow replied "What? gunner Tank behind us." Soarin answered "Affirmative." The gunner replied We took out several platoons, but we were further in enemys territory than expected, I could only hear a loud explosion and pretty much flew off Soarin's shoulders, and nearly of the tank, but was able the catch some iron bars on the turret back. "Soarin need help here!" Rainbow shouted He looked back only to see Rainbow holding at some bars, were some of they're equipment was stored. "Hold on Dash I'm coming." Soarin shouted back "Driver keep driving try to get back to our units." Soarin said "Yes Sir." The Driver replied Soarin climbed up and now stood on the outside from the turret, he was trying to get to me. "Soarin behind!" Rainbow shouted an enemy tank shoot hit our tank, but the shoot bounced, still that force was enough to bring Soarin to fall, he was able to get a hold on one of the side bars on of the turret but wasn't able to pull himself up again. "DRIVER SLOW DOWN!" Soarin shouted ontop of his lungs so the driver could hear the,. But driver didn't catch that perfectly, all he heard was "Driver st..." He thought for some moments, and in an instance he stopped the tank, the force sended Soarin flying a few feet but landed on the ground and rolled himself, but Rainbow wasn't as lucky, she hitted her left forehoof against the commanders cappola and the bone broke, she too flew a few feet and hitted her head against the ground pretty nasty, she rolled a few times till she came too a stop. "Dash, are you ok?! Soarin shouted "*BLAAARGH* I... felt... better..." Rainbow replied "Come on Dash we need to get in again, and get back to the unit we shouldn't have split up with them in the first place" Soarin said "Soarin... No can straight see even... you me help please" Rainbow replied "Sure." Soarin replied He sat Me onto his back and carried me into the Tank while the gunner covered us, and soon we in again and where off, we soon found some of our units again. They moved with them and soon the whole town was in their hands... ehmm Hoofs. Right after that they had a quick commander briefing. "Soarin where the hell have you been?" Fleetfoot asked "We got splitted up from the units and our radio is damaged." Soarin answered "Soarin... Wheres Dash?" Big Mac asked "Oops, right..." Soarin replied he went back into the tank got Rainbow and carried her and a bucket outside "Why are you carrying her and... a bucket?" Big Mac asked "he me carrying because me sick..." Rainbow replied Big Mac threw a questioning look at Soarin "We were in a pretty rough fight. A blast send Rainbow rolling back, She nearly rolled of the tank, but she held herself on some bars, on the turret back" Soarin said "And then?" Big Mac asked "He me tried to back get in, we hitted gotten and he fell of too..." Rainbow replied "..." No pony replied "After that I told the driver to slow down, he didn't quiet catch that and stop in the tracks... we flew off by the force and..." Soarin continued "Me hitted hoof on tank and ground to head..." Rainbow added "hey Medic, get her patched up!" Big Mac shouted "Yes Sir *Salute*." The Medic answered "I will bring her into the tent, be right back" Soarin said "Whay... ehhh Eyrie target next...ehhh... support wait for and uhh days tomorrow till wait and ehmm... tactic same like this and the rest you think...*Hmmph* Bucket! *BLAAARGH*" Rainbow said, before she vomited "*Sigh* Yes Ma'am." Big Mac replied With that Soarin carried Rainbow into the doctors tent. "Thanks soarin." Rainbow said "No problem. Doc inform me about her status as soon your done." Soarin said "Yes Sir." The Medic answered "By Dash." Soarin said "Bye..." Rainbow replied ------------- Meanwhile "She really doesn't looks good." Fleetfoot said "Don't mind her, she's been though worse." Big Mac said "I know but..." Fleetfoot said before getting cut off "No buts, let's focus, she said support will come in tomorrow, We need to wait till then, But we should be ready to move as soon they arrive, the next target is Eyrie." Big Mac said Later that day "So doc how does it look?" Soarin asked "Well she has a broken her left forehoof, she has something stuck in her right back hoof and has a deep cut in her right fore hoof and a pretty moderate till serve concussion, but despite all that she is in a very good status" The Medic answered "So better let her stay out of battle..." Soarin thought out loud "Yep that would probably be best." The Medic agreed "Soarin, that you?" Rainbow asked "Yea it's me Dash." Soarin answered "So I go out and fight can again?" Rainbow asked "I'm sorry Dash but your in no condition for that." Soarin answered "B-but I no want sit around nothing doing..." Rainbow protested "I'm sorry but..." Soarin got cut off "Idea. Me wait in back you go in, I spot bad guys that flank want, okay? Rainbow asked "If you feel up for it, I wouldn't mind, what about you doc?" Soarin replied "I'm not sure." The medic answered "Please I no want sit here alltime..." Rainbow said "I could look after her..." Soarin added "*Sigh* She has to let her get checked once a day." the medic answered "Well, okay I will come and get you tomorrow Dashie..." Soarin said "Kay." Rainbow replied
