Chapter Thirty-Nine: Traitors Amongst Friends
Chapter Thirty-Nine: Traitors Amongst Friends
Sergeant Steven Mace slowly walked back to the Camp outside of the Georgia Dome, still reeling from the sudden disappearance of Lime Tree Hill.
"I just don't get how it got to this point. Is it possible to have a dream that lasts this long. I've got to be crazy. That's it. I'm on a gurney somewhere. Maybe an IED got me or something. Which means that all of this is an elaborate fantasy created by a comatose mind..."
He turned to see the swirling vortex still festering above the city.
"Right."
"...Sergeant Mace, can you hear me? I believe I've got the hang of this now..."
His thoughts now interrupted by this sudden call on his radio, which he knew he had no choice but to answer.
"Major Classified..." A sigh. "Mace here."
"...I trust you haven't forgotten about our lead concerning the Banded traitors amongst us, correct?"
"I wish I had," he thought grimly.
"No... I haven't. Listen Major, surely you can find a more capable operative for this investigation."
..."How about you listen, Sergeant, admittedly you know Sky Blade, Star Sabre, and Crescent Skies only fairly well, but you've served with them most recently, and that means you have a unique angle on them almost no one else has."...
"And that's the only reason, right?"
Major Classified could be heard groaning over the radio.
"...For centuries the Banded have managed to escape the Equestrian military and police. Centuries, Sergeant. That's hundreds of years escaping even the princesses' notice. That takes skill. That takes guts. But most importantly, that takes an unbelievable level of subterfuge the likes of which nopony has even come close to matching..."
"With all due respect, Major, can you just tell me where I come in on this? What exactly do you want me to do?"
..."All right. Here you go. One of them, if not more has served a cause that is directly destroying everything we- you, hold dear. They trust you, and that is why you were chosen, not just by me, but by your superiors in your military service. Now I know you don't directly take orders from me, but I'm asking you to do this. Not just for me, but for all our sakes."...
Mace sighed.
"Yes... sir."
********************
General Highlander sat up at his table, appearing to almost stare through Mike Kaiser and Gerri Reed. Sitting next to him, Cleaves, Snow Wisp, and Rock appeared to be equally confused.
"Let me see if I understand this correctly. You think both our planets are the same planet?"
Dr. Marc Harrison quickly burst through the door, an unstable stack of papers spilling onto the floor.
"I have been studying this very theory, one I'd hoped Mr. Kaiser and Ms. Reed would have waited for me to explain..."
Highlander sat back down. "Please Doctor, by all means, please elaborate."
"Today, ladies and gentlemen, the word of the day is dimension. It's not a very reliable science, but for lack of a better term, this is what we will call our two worlds."
Lieutenant Cleaves shrugged. "Break it down for the more scientifically ignorant, will ya doc?"
"Two dimensions of the same world," the doctor answered.
"Mind going a little further into that?" General Rock stated flatly.
"I believe, and this is only a theory, that this dimension has a twin in your dimension, one that should be completely isolated from ours. Something had to weaken the walls between them, and judging by recent history, and word of mouth from some of our more recent guests, I am willing to believe that the only reason out worlds have crossed, is because of this Hircus's power."
Highlander nodded. "Fascinating. How do we stop it?"
"I'm not sure we can. Transdimensional science is still a very new subject, but my instruments are showing that our two dimensions are converging at quite a steady pace an-"
Mike stopped him. "Woah, woah, woah... Converging? What do you mean converging?"
"What I mean to say," Marcus continued, "Anomalous energy is growing stronger not just in this region, but my evidence says that this phenomenon is growing in strength all over the planet."
Gerri scratched her head. "But anomalies have only been recorded in this region, I've heard nothing about them popping up anywhere else."
"Exactly, 'not recorded'," Harrison continued, "But if left unchecked, we do know that events will start to appear in other locations, the results of which I cannot say."
General Snow Wisp slapped a hoof on the table. "Then we must put an end to the source."
"Hircus," the doctor answered. "But I'm afraid there's more."
Everyone looked at the doctor, and then everyone else, as if taking a silent vote as to whether or not they wished to hear anymore.
Highlander sighed. "Go on, doctor."
"I have been collaborating with many other scientists with the Anomalous Energy Event Team, as well as a host of Equestrian scientists, and I can now tell you that the connection between our two Earths is clearly greater than just these anomalies. Certain trends have appeared in both our histories that line up too well to be coincidences."
Mike shrugged, "Like..."
"It is generally accepted that this planet's mean temperature has risen in recent history, whether this is due to human-affected global warming or simply a period of climate change can be debated endlessly. But according to the Equestrian Ministry of Sciences, the mean temperature on their world has been slowly declining. This became even more suspect when we realized that this rate is exactly the same for both worlds."
Highlander groaned. "Please cut out the exposition and just get to the point, please, doctor. We're in the midst of a war, remember?"
Harrison frowned, "Fine. We believe that energy is flowing from the Equestrians' world into this one. Possibly due to anomalous events."
Gerri raised her hand. "I'll bite. Why?"
"I don't wish to spread doom and gloom, but if you had the ability to control energy, and were planning on invading a planet, how would you do it?"
Cleaves shook his head. "Despite my evaluations from various superiors, I am not a megalomaniac, and I don't think any of us here are either, so please don't tell me you were asking that question because you don't know the answer."
Marcus lowered his head. "That, uh, was the reason actually, but I have a few good guesses. One possible plan is that Hircus intends to neutralize both our worlds by routing energy from one to the other, cooking one and freezing another."
General Rock shook his head. "If he wanted to kill us all, I would think he would have had an easier time of it."
"He's right," Mike added, "What good is a kingdom with no subjects?"
Harrison slapped a clipboard onto the table. "Well the only other option I can think of, is that Hircus is trying to terraform our worlds into something else, using the anomalies."
Highlander removed his cap and ran a hand through is hair in thought. "But the million-dollar question is, into what?"
"I don't kn-"
A small, red, lizard-like creature in a lab coat unceremoniously entered the room, his arms folded behind his back in a scholarly manner.
"The 'thing' to which he is referring, human, is the Realm Sapphiron, and should we fail to prevent this affront, that will be the only realm there is."
*******************
Mace slowly crept back into the improvised Equestrian base outside of the Georgia Dome. A small Equestrian family could be seen casually trotting by the fence. After holding short to evade their notice. Mace slipped into a small barracks tent.
"Not home. Curfew is in effect. Where would three Equestrian soldiers be at this time of night?"
The sun had long set in the western skies, and the barracks were eerily silent. Mace began to rummage through a small stack of crates in the corner of the room. A sudden crash drove Mace to reflexively point his rifle towards the sound.
"Just a box of books."
He breathed a sigh of relief as he put the stack of what appeared to be Equestrian comic books back on the shelf it had tumbled from.
"Hardly incriminating," he mused out loud.
"If the Banded has been hiding for centuries, they aren't going to leave evidence just lying around. Searching tents like this is usele-"
A sharp impact drowned his sight with darkness. As Mace slowly lost consciousness, a faint voice could be heard behind him.
"Is he dead?"
Low growls echoed through the darkness.
"Then finish the job. Nopony can know of our activities here."
The mysterious growls grew in volume.
"Dispose of him."
****************
Princess Celestia gazed upon the masses of ponies gathered under the lights of the Georgia Dome. A tired, but relieved Twilight Sparkle trotted up to her.
"It's really good to talk to you in person, Princess. I trust you are well?"
The princess remained silent.
"Princess?"
"T-Twilight. My apologies, I was in thought."
"I understand. It's hard for me to look at it too."
The princess lowered her gaze. "I am at a loss as to what to say to them. They have all endured so much, and now I must ask more of them."
Twilight smiled. "They'll- we'll understand."
"My sister has made progress, but there is much more to go. The vast majority of humanity does not trust us. I can't say I blame them. We haven't exactly been forthcoming about what has occurred as of late."
"What do you mean, princess?"
"Princess Luna's affinity for darkness made her the ideal choice to become the director of the Affairs of Darkness forces. If you get the chance, confer with her."
"About what?"
"You will know."
Below, a unicorn, a pegasus, and an Earth pony trotted away from a poker game with a pair of humans. Celestia's gaze followed them.
"You've got the most shifty poker face I've ever seen, Baxton. Your son however, he could freeze dragon's tonsils with that stare."
"You still lost four hooves to me Blade, don't act like you weren't fooled," the human retorted.
The earth pony rolled his eyes. "C'mon Star, Crescent. Let's get back to base before they court martial us."
Celestia leaned to her young apprentice. "Have there been any disputes or fights between humans and ponies?"
"A few spats here and there, nothing serious," Twilight answered. "I think it's starting to settle down outside."
"I can almost feel their restlessness." Celestia sighed. "I don't know how much longer they can stay so high spirited with this disaster unfolding. They need to know that we can push Hircus' forces back, that we have a plan to retake our world."
"Do we?" Twilight asked without a forethought to how it might sound.
Princess Celestia looked away as a distant explosion rocked the dome.
"Not yet."
*****************
Sky Blade, Star Sabre, and Crescent Skies made their way back to the small barracks tent they called home.
Star Sabre galloped up front.
"I know I could have beat him, Sarge. I mean we're Equestrian soldiers... our game faces are supposed to be legendary."
Sky Blade shrugged. "The most emotionless Royal Guard face imaginable doesn't help if you have a tell a blind pony could expose."
The white pegasus stopped in his tracks. "Tell?" What tell? What are you talking about?"
"The same one earth ponies such as myself have been exploiting since the beginning of time..."
Crescent Skies raised a hoof. "If I may sir, he's talking about wing twitch."
"Get the flank out of here. My wings don't twitch."
Sky blade and Crescent Skies exchanged looks.
"You do, sir," The private Skies mused.
Corporal Sabre sharpened his gaze.
"I've lived around pegasai my entire life. Nopony has ever mentioned anything like that."
"Of course not, it's a secret Earth ponies and unicorns have been hiding from the wingies for decades, right Skies?"
"Absolutely, sir. Supposedly it has something to do with the sensitive tendons under their wing root."
Star Sabre let out an audible groan. "I am NOT taking pegasus biology lessons from an unicorn or his Earth pony collaborator."
Sky Blade shrugged. "By all means, don't believe us. Just more bits for us later."
"We'll see about that, si-"
Star Sabre suddenly stopped again, and his ears turned sharply to the right.
"You hear that?"
"Hear what?" the older Earth pony answered. "I don't hear anything."
"I'll say, the place sounds deserted," Crescent chimed in.
Star Sabre sped up into a light gallop towards the camp. Outside their barracks, a large man and a male pegasus stood outside the entrance to their tent.
"Hey now, what are you two digging around for in here?"
Neither turned or acknowledged the question in any way.
"Hey, I'm talking to you!"
The sergeant and private quickly caught up. "Star what are you-"
Sky Blade turned to the odd pair. "Can I help you?"
The human and pegasus slowly turned to face them.
"Leave," they both groaned in unison.
Star Sabre backed up a few paces. "Alright, who are you?" He stopped and focused in on the pegasus. "And why are you wearing a Wonderbolts uniform?"
"Leave. Now."
Sky Blade stepped forward. "This is our barracks. I would rather think you should leave."
Crescent leaned towards the sergeant. "I think we can take them, sir," he quietly.
Sky Blade raised up a hoof in caution. "Now now, I think we can all leave this without having to bash each others' skulls in-"
"I don't think so." Star Sabre pointed out a pair of booted legs splayed out under the darkened tent flap.
The three Equestrian soldiers drew their concealed hoof bow sidearms and quickly brought them to a stand of position.
"All right, you two," Sky Blade spoke around his bit trigger, "I don't know what happened here, but nopony needs an incident right now. Just back up and let us take a look at him."
"Crescent. Go check him out," Sky Blade ordered without taking his eyes off of the odd pair before him.
The unicorn nodded and galloped up to the downed human soldier, who remained motionless. "He's breathing, sir. Nasty bruise on the back on his head. And- it's Sergeant Mace, sir!"
Star Sabre pointed his bow downrange. "All right, I want an explanation. Now!"
The human and pegasus strangers traded glances then turned back to them. their hands and hooves beginning to take on a dark blue glow.
Star Sabre jumped back. "Whoa, whoa! What exactly are you two?"
"His will," the simultaneous voices answered.
The pegasus dashed into the air, tackling Star Sabre and tossing him into a nearby row of barracks. Sky Blade deftly rolled out of the way but was soon caught by a charging lunge from the human, sending him reeling.
"Sarge, Corporal!" Crescent yelled, fired off several suppressive shots from his side bow and galloped toward his fallen comrades.
"I'm alive," Star Sabre muttered as he hastily crawled out of a crushed tent. Sky Blade quickly hopped back to his hooves and joined him.
"Still think we can take them, Skies?" Sky Blade muttered.
"The odds are different, I'll tell you that," the private answered.
The two glowing strangers began to fire streaks of blue energy from their hand and hooves, lighting a row of barracks on fire. The three Equestrian soldiers instinctively took cover behind a small rock wall.
"We can't engage them like this!" Sky Blade yelled over the deafening sound of burning energy.
Star fired several shots over his cover toward the strange invaders. "Why isn't anypony coming out the barracks to help us?!"
"I'll bet it has something to do with our friends here," Sky Blade growled. "Crescent, do you know where the Major's tent is?"
"Affirmative," Crescent quickly answered.
"The Major's tent has a human communications device. If the Major is... unable to help you, use it to get an alert out! We'll cover you!"
Crescent saluted and bolted off toward the center of the base as the remaining two war ponies took sporadic shots over the cover wall.
Sky Blade ducked to avoid a particularly low energy blast. "Star, we'll have to hold off these two jokers until help gets here, then we have to get Mace out. You up for it?"
Star Sabre nodded calmly. "Always."
Sky Blade took a moment to calm himself. "All right then. Change your sling mag and buck up. We're going to charge them."
Star Sabre removed a nearly empty arrow magazine from his weapon and inserted another. "Let's take 'em!"

Anomalous Energy Event Team Research And Development File #568-2: Pandragon Aerial Performance
One of the more surprising forms of resistance being encountered by AEE expedition teams upon entering into the Anomalous Realm, are the fearsome Pandragon mounts and their pilots, known as Pandragon minors. Much like the pegasus, griffin, and other winged species, Pandragon mounts are inexplicably capable of reaching high subsonic speeds under the unique conditions of the other Earth. Curiously, Pandragon minors do not seem capable of reaching the same velocities, which may explain why they prefer to ride their larger less intelligent "cousins" into battle.
According to our liaison with the Equestrian Affairs of Darkness special forces, A mount and minor combination typically brandishes a much more powerful version of the standard fire-bolts weapons the infantry uses. These weapons don't seem capable of critically damaging armored vehicles, but seem completely capable of inflicting fatal damage to a more vulnerable airborne target. Pandragon minors themselves are reported to carry a small mini-bolt side arm, as well as a few magma orbs to disrupt enemy armored divisions. Finally, Pandragon fighter mounts are one of the more exclusive users of the magnetized FSL's or Flare Spear Launchers which could be described as primitive metal-seeking rockets.
Scientists are still scrambling to find an effective defense to these weapons, and the Pandragon fighters that bear them.

Back from its long hiatus/hibernation another chapter of Heroes and Allies. It takes more than a hiatus to break the bonds between us and this fic. I hope you all enjoy the next installation of this story, and as always Lyno keep up the great work.

This is getting rediculous. o.o Literally every single story that I have faved in the past and then downloaded the entire story via html updated. Even the ones like this one that hasnt updated in a long time. Jeeeeeez.
Well, a re-read has well been worth it to get me back in the right frame of mind for this story. Glad to see it hasn't fallen by the wayside and that things are still moving about at a steady pace.
Awesome chapter, keep it up!
Anthropogenic Climate Change isn’t real, no, it’s actually Sapphiron/Hircus Instigated Terraforming. Riiiight.
Between endemic errors, piss‐poor prose, and utterly unpredictable and unreliable updates this sorry story’s been circling the drain for a while now; this is merely the straw that broke the camel’s back.
4843723 alternative explanation: hircus didn't cause climate change, climate change (more energy) caused hircus, who then decided to freeze equestria for shits and giggles,using the energy generation from earth.
4892294
IIRC, Hircus already has an origin story, and it was stated that Equestria was cooling at the same rate Earth was heating up. If that energy were actually being harnessed there should be some loss to inefficiency.
(You could always posit that the energy Hircus was harnessing was below the margin of error, but that raises the question: “Why was Hircus incapable of escaping without harnessing the energy causing climate change if the energy required to do so was insignificant in comparison?” i.e., if the energy requirements were so low how has he not escaped before this?)
MOAR!!!!
man I love this story....
This is rather unfortunate. I was looking forward to reading this, but I think I tore something when I winced at the sight of the radio communication in the first chapter. Yes, the one that are in practically the first paragraph. This could be really good with a team of editors.
This is best story. :P
And yet another author who hasn't logged in, in like 16 weeks. Did a plane crash of something?
5328153 True, fanatics are scary bastards.
So did the author of this just die...or...is the story cancelled?
5643749 I've officially given up hope of a future update. I declare the author dead.
First, in the Georgia Dome I’d love to see an ordinary Pegasus named Cadance do something wonderful enough for her to become an Alicorn and a princess.
Second, how will Rarity get invited to show off her fashion designs at fashion shows in New York, Paris, and Milan?
Third, I would love to see Pinkie Pie’s react to the Pink Pony Atlanta Strip Club.
I can imagine that Lord Hircus could consolidate his power in the pony world before attempting to take over the human world. There could be many chapters as the humans and their allies on human Earth reach out in an attempt to assist the other nations on pony Earth. I would love to explore places like Saddle Arabia with the main characters.
When is this going to update?
I would like to see Applejack, her family, and friends attend the Georgia Apple Festival. Held in Ellijay, Georgia this festival is about 78 miles north of Atlanta.

Dear Bob The Brony:
According to Wikipedia, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), also called the North Atlantic Alliance, is an intergovernmental military alliance based on the North Atlantic Treaty which was signed on April 4, 1949. The organization constitutes a system of collective defense whereby its member states agree to mutual defense in response to an attack by any external party. Key words: “an attack by any external party”.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO
America is a member of NATO and is being attacked. Thus, NATO member nations would aid in America’s defense. European airborne troops could reach America within hours, but armored vehicles would take one week to get ready and arrive at a European port, and then another week to be shipped to American ports.
Alrighty then! Just got caught up to the most recent chapter! I think I'm hooked...
In actuality, this fic has prompted me to make an account just for the sole reason of keeing tabs on this beyond incredible work of fiction. Is this story still alive? Please don't tell me it died...I've only just found it...

I do realise that most Germans aren't Nazis...
I don't think I ever said anything about all Germans being Nazis? One of my best friends comes from German descent...
I do realise that the Brits were sorta holding out but still.... We kinda did save them...
I may or may not have gotten a little.... Over my head?over zeolous? Yeah I'll go with that

Your “12 mini-guns on 2 rotating barrels (central shafts?)” is an interesting although impractical Rube Goldberg idea for a weapon system. I am having a hard time imagining what that would look like. But, your weapon system would very heavy, hard to aim, and difficult to reload.
Let’s keep LewisClarke’s realistic vision for this story, by using existing weapon systems. To destroy Lord Hircus’s air and ground forces, the US Air Force would use many aircraft, including AC-130U Specter Gunships.
According to this article, “It's armed with a single side-mounted 25 mm GAU-12 Equalizer Gatling gun capable of unloading 1800 rounds a minute. It also employs a Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft autocannon—think a machine gun that fires artillery shells—as well as a 105 mm M102 Howitzer that fires 33-pound shells (fer lulz). The Spooky also features an improved fire control system and increased ammo capacity.”

6562296 I'm fairly sure it's just for show XD.
You know... if both Earths where really advanced and shiz then this would happen.
And by god would that be epic.
Well without the kerbals and except its ponies and dragons and all of the shiz that's happening.
Oh look at this!

Just look up nexters lab.
That is all.
Actually here is the vid that has it in.
(its after the first "wacky inventions" And if you got to 5:50 you'll find its younger (or is it bigger?) brother!!!)
(and then at 7:27 we get this "Beauty")
Are you aware of the “U.S. Army Weapon Systems handbook”? These books could provide you with ideas for military hardware our story protagonists can use in their battles with the armies of Lord Hircus. In addition, these weapons systems could be exported to the pony’s home world to assist those nations, such as Saddle Arabia that are still independent of Lord Hircus’s domination.
http://asc.army.mil/web/weapon-systems/wsh-archive/
While these books describe weapons, there are many other types of useful equipment. For example, take a look at the Force Provider (FP).
DESCRIPTION
Each FP is a high-quality deployable base camp that provides billeting, latrines, showers, laundry, and kitchen systems. The modules include fuel support, water and waste management, environmental control units, power generation, and power distribution support ranging from 50-man to 150-man Soldier camps. A 150- Soldier FP set deploys via 18 triple container (TRICON) systems consisting of:
Eight latrine systems
Eight shower systems
One kitchen system
Containerized batch laundry systems
Fourteen TRICON refrigerated containers
Six 60-kilowatt tactical quiet generators
Ten modular personnel tents (air supported)
Two 400,000 British-thermal-unit water heaters
One improved fuel distribution system
Six mobile electric power distribution replacement systems
Ten environmental control units
FP is prepositioned in Army Prepositioned Stocks 1, 3, and 4 to support combatant commanders’ requirements. All system components weigh less than 10,000 pounds and are pre-packed for rapid transport via air (C-130, C-141, C-5, and C-17), sea, road, or rail.
Additional operational add-on kits include cold-weather kits, prime-power kits, large-scale electric kitchens, Administration kits, and Morale Welfare Recreation kits. Resource efficiency add-ons include shower water reuse systems, energy saving shelter shades, and insulating liner systems. New FP modules use an Airbeam Shelter technology which reduces setup time from days to hours. These operational energy upgrades reduce fuel, power, and water requirements.
Update, Please!!!!!!
I wan't to read this. But I can't get invested in another dead fic...
I think the author died.
Look like someone must continue this novel!!!
6650757 Somebody continue his work, Pleaseeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
6650757 well doesn't that just suck?
t
a great fic... oh wait, there will be no closure, authors (probably) dead.
s
6651711 lol. Yeah a lot of good stories I've been reading seem to be on Hiatus or dead.
6652699 I'm getting fed up with this.
"oh hey look, a story that looks awesome, has 2000 likes... and is canceled..."
6653607 I know how you feel. It pisses me off to no end, but at least some of the authors let their readers know they're working on something and they're not dead.
6653630 I find it weird that authors can write such an amazing story, love it to death, then just quit, no warning, just boom, they stopped. (and obviously aren't dead)
athough, cases like this, who knows? author was probably smitten down by thor or something.
6653644 You just made my day.

Dear Mr. Pop:
I agree with you that someone should continue this story. If I were to continue this story, I would have Lord Hircus attempt to take over the entire pony world before attacking the human world. After all, why would Lord Hircus attack the human world with the majority of his army, when there are many independent nations, such as Yakyakistan, remaining on the pony world that could under United Nations leadership and assistance unite and attack his nation of zombies?
If the ponies and other intelligent beings who immigrated to human Earth have a prolonged stay on the human Earth; then the princesses would create an Equestrian government-in-exile, with a headquarters in New York City, to be close to the United Nations building. Other pony diplomatic outposts could be established near the European Union headquarters at the City of Brussels, Belgium.
What about introducing pony characters from recent seasons, such as Moon Dancer who appears in the episode “Amending Fences”? What about the Pegasus ponies creating “New Cloudsdale” surrounded by magic fog that glows at nighttime to keep aircraft from crashing into it? What about ponies teaching humans how to make their amazing air vehicles, such as a pedal powered helicopter featured in the “Testing Testing 1, 2, 3” episode?
Your friend,
Dances with Unicorns

Any future writer for this excellent story can mine the two “The Cutie Re-Mark” episodes for ideas for a wartime Equestrian nation recreated on the human world. The “Princess Celestia and Equestria vs. King Sombra and the Crystal Empire” subchapter has many ideas that can be used to continue this story, from World War Two wartime propaganda posters and graffiti.
I would love to see how under the control of Lord Hircus, Flim and Flam could rebuild Equestria into an industrialized nation. This industry would be used by Lord Hircus army to fight wars against the other nations on the pony world and the human nations on the human world.
Now that the six Elements of Harmony are on the human world, these ponies will need safe transportation to get around. I suggest that they use the Canada-based Terradyne - Gurkha armored personnel vehicles built on the Ford F-550 Super Duty.

What do you think we will see first, the My Little Pony film scheduled for a theatrical release on November 3, 2017 or a new chapter for Heroes and Allies?
