AppleBloom fixed up her bow and slightly frayed hair and headed for the stairs to make her way out of the library. AppleBloom was stopped by Twilight before reaching the front door, Twilight had a worried look on her face.
"AppleBloom do you know where Spike is? I haven't seen him all day and the commotion going on outside is making me worried." Twilight had always worried for her little brother especially since he wasn't where he usually was in the morning, downstairs and ready to help Twilight when she needed it.
AppleBloom shook her head. "No, Twiligh, ah haven't seen 'im since last night. Ah just thought he was down here helpin' ya already."
"Okay thanks sweetie, Spike usually turns up eventually. Would you like some breakfast AppleBloom?" Twilight's smile returned at the gesture.
"No thanks Twiligh, ah need to get back to the farm, but thanks anyway." AppleBloom turned towards the door and exited the library. 'Hopefully ah can see him later' AppleBloom blushed thinking about her future fiance.

Dr.Hooves woke up from his restless sleep and went over to a mirror to look at his bloodshot eyes, he shook his head before leaving the room and started walking towards the assembly room to await his task for today's contention. 'No matter what, I need to do my best for Ditzy and Dinky...' Dr.hooves entered the room from a silent hallway to a crowd of debating scientist and arguing agents.
"Okay everyone settle down! In a few moments we will begin after all agents are accounted for!" Eye Patch was yelling over the crowds from his podium.
Dr.Hooves trotted up to Eye Patch. "Do we have our plan all set?"
Eye Patch nodded and keeping his face of confidence straight then turned to the crowd to continue calming them down.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A pony turned from her computer to face towards Dr.Blast Burn who was in the center of the small room of scientists all working on their computers along with Dr.Blast Burn working on his own. "Doktor bekommen wir mehrere Lesungen von Heer, Luftwaffe, und die Agenturen Bewegung."
Dr.Blast Burn waved his hand at the worried pony. "Setzen Sie Ihre Arbeit, ich habe an alles gedacht." Dr.Blast Burn put away his computer and was again enveloped by darkness. He starred at all of the ponies with a smile. 'After months of planning the goal is within an hour's reach.... my revenge will be final.. and soon afterwards with the demonstration of my little project all nations will bow to me.' Dr. Blast Burn let out a small laugh that scared the pony he had just spoken with and turned to the right of him where his most trusted assistant was standing. "Tell our men to start setting up the defense, our guests will be here within minuets." Dr.Blast Burn stood up and cleared his throat to grab the attention of the scientist. "My friends! Victory is near, and all that I have promised you all is within our grasp!" Dr. Blast Burn looked around. "Soon all of the world will know of their masters!"
All of the scientist clopped their hooves on the ground with cheers to show their support.
Dr.Blast Burn pulled out a small holographic computer check-list and stared at it making sure everything was ready, the image had a large bar with 95% next to it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gummy and AppleBloom arrived at the assembly room that was filled to the last row with agents and scientist banging their hooves on their desks in front of them. AppleBloom had never seen or heard of all the agents coming together at once like this, she noticed Eye Patch beckon them to the frontal stage next to them.
"Agents! Now we are in session! Please turn your attention to the front, now is not the time to argue over the course of action!" Eye Patch was furious. "Dr. Blast Burn as you all know has been working on a weapon that can cause mass hysteria to all of Equestria. We fear that the weapon is finished as we speak.."
The room fell dead silent as the white screen behind Eye Patch popped out and the lights died.
"Now is the time that we take action. Dr.Blast Burn thought we had lost his trail after destroying his own mansion but he is very wrong. He thinks we know nothing, but let me tell you agents.. that this man is wrong! We are going to prove him wrong today, now as you can see on this map we have marked several places to which Dr.Blast Burn may be." The projector brought up an image of Equestria. "Over 100 places he has set up defenses and lines to stop us from getting to him, each agent will receive their task, we need to plug any holes that snake can slither through and search for the weapon or Dr.Blast Burn." Eye Patch took a drink of water from a glass that was placed at the podium. "We are sending our best agents to the heart of this to hopefully get to the weapon before it is released. Agent 700, Gummy. Agent 816, AppleBloom. And Dr.Hooves will be sent to Dr.Blast Burn's most possible location." Eye Patch starred at everyone who was in complete shock. "The army will fight Dr.Blast Burn's main force as we sneak through the lines to sabotage and aid the fight. The Air force will be lead by Agent Tank to the most tactical positions." Eye Patch took a deep breath. "This is war agents.. one that we cannot afford to lose, I will be right beside all of you. Good Luck." Eye Patch stepped away from his podium and as he did all of the agents checked their communication devices for their assignments.
"Sir, we are ready to go when you are." Dr.Hooves was determined.
"Good, because its time to show Dr.Blast Burn what hell is." Eye Patch and the agents headed down the hallway and turned into a garage where Dawn Cruise was waiting for them.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Destination up ahead." Dawn Cruise and the agents were speeding down a road with the echos of gunfire and fighter planes in the air.
"As soon as we get there, Dawn Cruise is going to get us up close to the compound so we can get inside, I will be taking an alternate route once we get inside. Agent Gummy and AppleBloom, Dr.Hooves knows your route, keep him protected and be wary of traps and patrols." Eye Patch still held his known determined look.
"Sir ah thought you retired from field operations." AppleBloom knew that he was and was curious to why he was going with them.
"This isn't just a field anymore agent, it's become a battlefield and I intend to do my part to stop this madness."
They arrived outside the compound and Dawn Cruise had driven into the forest, 100 yards ahead was the compound.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Doctor our forces are being demolished, we cannot hold out very long against the EQMC or their Air force! What is our plan of action?" The pony looked frantic.
Dr.Blast Burn was hoping they would be able to defend better but none of it mattered. The only thing that mattered was that the weapon would be complete then they would all be forced to submit. "Nothing, just continue the preparations."
"But sir! What if we don't finish in time?"
"We will." Dr.Blast Burn had not planned an attack of this magnitude.. 'I wonder what forced the agency to become to rash...perhaps I shouldn't have destroyed my mansion..' Dr.Blast Burn checked the meter again and smiled. 98%.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AppleBloom had Gummy on her back and Dr.Hooves right behind them, all read to run if discovered. They had sneaked in through a door to the side after a patrol unwittingly left the door open and were now slowly heading through countless hallways. Dr.hooves had a device in his hoof showing him where the most activity was taking place. Dr.Hooves led them towards the middle of the complex, all of them becoming suspicious to the light patrol.
"Stop.. I...I think this is where the weapon is.." Dr.Hooves pointed towards a door that had no locks on it.
AppleBloom walked slowly towards the door. "Are ya sure?"
"Yes."
Dr.Hooves slowly opened up the door and they saw a staircase leading to a higher level to a door and Dr.Hooves remembered what happened last time the scene was like this. But this time before they could reach the stairs the door had opened at the top of the stairs and the door behind them closed. ' No....Not again! How could I be so stupid!!' Dr.Hooves tensed up as unarmed ponies slowly surrounded them after coming down the stairs. He saw AppleBloom ready to fight.
"AppleBloom, stay on your guard."
AppleBloom nodded, she was ready, ready to fight, ready to defend her family and friends against Dr. Blast Burn.
"Well hello my little ponies...." A sinister voice came from the door atop the stairs and a dark figure looked down at them. "Again another trap that you had fallen into, normally I would have had you killed on site but I feel generous and wanted to meet you myself." Another shadow figure appeared beside Dr. Blast Burn.
AppleBloom froze in her place her mind becoming a buzz and she lost all sense and stared up at the doorway as Dr.Blast Burn slowly appeared from the dark room.
"Hello my dear..." Said Spike.
"S-spike? Your Doctor Blast Burn?..." AppleBloom was struck, was she having a bad dream? or was Spike really the evil insane doctor attempting to destroy all that she knew and held dear.
"Yes. AppleBloom, I'm Doctor BlastBurn." Spike had a blank expression on his face.
"Why.. SPIKE WHY?!" AppleBloom broke down and fell to the floor but still starring up at Spike.
Spike started walking down the stairs towards AppleBloom. "AppleBloom.. "
"Stay away from me! Why do you want to take away everything we both love?! What reason do you have for doing this?" AppleBloom got up and had an angry face with tears streaming down her face.
"I have my reasons AppleBloom, but I will explain everything if you will just come with me.." Spike reached his hand towards her but AppleBloom took a step backwards from Spike.
"No! Spike we are through! I can't believe you would just betray us like this...I love you Spike, you were the world to me..everyday ah woke up ah thought of you... how we would spend our lives together and when you proposed to me with this.. necklace.." AppleBloom pointed at the necklace she was wearing. "Ah wanted to give you everything you would ever need, because at that moment you gave me everything ah ever needed... Please Spike it's not to late to stop this..." AppleBloom this time raised her hoof out towards Spike.
AppleBloom's heart stopped as she heard the words, they hit her like a thunderbolt that wounded her heart.
"No....it's to late now AppleBloom, I proposed to you so we could enjoy this together, but now I see that the world isn't good enough for you." Spike glared at AppleBloom. "You said last night that you would go anywhere with me, support whatever I did.. but now I see that's a lie." Spike turned to his room. "Hand me the remote please, Pinkie."
Pinkie Pie stepped forward from the dark room holding a remote. "The weapon is complete doctor."
"Good, AppleBloom, watch as I become the ruler of the world with a press of a button!"
Spike was about to press the button but was surprised to see a white stallion appear from the vents above landing on one of his men as he jumped down knocking out the largest one guarding the exit. The rest of the stallions charged at the White Stallion but one by one they fell to him. The first one came in a running punch that was countered by a grab of the elbow that was brought down to the ground and then kicked in the back of the head to finish him off. The next two came at once and tried to grab the white stallion but he ducked under the arms of the one on the right and grabbed him in a choke hold and snapped his neck and caught the thrust of the second stallion and brought his head down to his knee. The last 4 came at once and the stallion jumped into the air and kicked one in the face before falling to the ground on his back and being jumped after by the three remaining stallions. The white stallion rolled away and turned kicking one of the thugs in the fore hooves making him fall face-forward. After standing up the stallion grabbed another thug and threw him on the previous henchmen that was laying on the ground. The last thug tried to throw himself at the white stallion but found himself being lifted in the air over the stallion and as the thug was on his back found a hoof in his face rendering him unconscious. The white stallion was Eye Patch.
"You can never find any good help these days..." Spike was scowling at the white stallion. "Oh well, game over anyway ponies.." Spike twirled his finger above the button.
"NO!" Eye Patch, AppleBloom, and Dr.hooves all yelled at once.
Spike's hand dropped away from the remote and his eyes were wide. "What..." Spike had fallen with a bump on the back of his head.
Pinkie Pie stood behind the fallen Spike with her hoof raised.Her mane had returned to normal. "Nighty night Spikie!" Pinkie was smiling at Eye Patch and saluted. "Mission accomplished Sir!" Pinkie Pie giggled. "Man that one was almost a doozy!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1 hour later)
Eye Patch walked up to the podium at the assembly room. "Agents!...We have won!"
The room erupted with cheers and papers making make-shift confetti.
"Well done agents, thanks to all of your help we manage to stop the earth from being dominated by an insane dragon! Special thanks to our best agents. Agent Gummy, Agent AppleBloom, and Agent Pinkamina!"
The room again exploded into cheers for the agents.
"Dr.Blast Burn is now being transported to our maximum detention center, his remaining men to jails all over Equestria. We can rest easy tonight knowing that hes going to be locked away for good. Enjoy the rest of the month agents, you've all earned it!"
The room chanted "Eye Patch! Eye Patch!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the excitement was tired out and the agents went to enjoy their time-off Eye Patch was about to head to his room to finally have a chance to sleep for once this month. As he was leaving he saw AppleBloom sitting in the corner just looking down at the ground and he walked over to her and let out his hoof.
"Everything alright agent AppleBloom?"
"No.." AppleBloom was silently crying. "I loved him sir."
Eye Patch couldn't think of anything to say to her, instead he sat down beside AppleBloom and put his arm across AppleBloom to let her cry on his shoulder.
They sat there for several minuets with Eye patch slowly rocking AppleBloom before she finally stopped.
"Thank you."
"Will you be okay?"
"Yeah.." AppleBloom slowly stood up with Eye Patch.
"It will get better, I promise." Eye Patch looked at her neck, she was still wearing the necklace that he heard them fighting about earlier.
AppleBloom's mind was blank, the only thing she wanted now was to go home and sleep.
As they headed for the exit they were cut-off by a hyperventilating pony.
"Radio Buzz whats the problem?"
Radio buzz was still breathing heavily so they gave him some time to stop.
"Sir.... it's BlastBurn... he escaped during the transport..."
EyePatch became whiter than his coat was originally.
He was outraged. "How did this happen!?"
"I don't know sir, but he did it and we couldn't track him on our satellites.."
EyePatch stared at AppleBloom for a moment, she was returned to her state of shock.
"We can't just let someone like him go free... I'll contact some agents to track him down, get the word out that he escaped."
"Sir!"
EyePatch was about to head towards his communicator on the podium but was stopped by AppleBloom.
"Sir, ah volunteer to chase after Spike."
EyePatch was surprised. "Are you sure? This might require you to leave Ponyville to persue him."
AppleBloom looked up at him. "Yes ah'm sure, ah can't let him get away."
EyePatch thought about it for a moment. "Okay Agent AppleBloom. I'll allow this but stay a week with your family and make up an excuse about why you are leaving for a bit, I'll be able to give you more details before that time, for now go rest."
"Yes sir." AppleBloom turned and walked out of the assembly room with the blank stare still on her face.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spike was driving down a road in an armored vehicle that was to be his transport to the detention center. He stared at the cold lifeless stallion beside him in the passenger seat.
"Sorry there pal, but a change of plans has come up." He smiled at the stallion as if he were his best friend. Spike shifted through the glove compartment and found a map with a pen. He pulled over on the side of the road and started writing on the map and after 20 minuets of constant calculations and predictions he circled a large city only about 10 miles from here. He turned to the lifeless stallion again. "Hey, how about we go there now? Looks fun doesn't it?" Spike joked while he nudged the stallion. He started up the vehicle while laughing. 'The game has just started.'
I have had alot of fun writing this story and I was sad to be running out of material for it, so i decided to mix stuff up a tad, AppleBloom's Vendetta coming in December. and I think I picked an appropriate song for Spike to be played out on, the lyrics match his point of view 90%. AppleBloom's Vendetta( name subject to change) Will include some new material and i cant wait to start the pre-writing and will be showing AppleBloom's and Spike's point of view in this next story.
The First Chapter is out for AppleBloom's Vendetta to explain some things.
