I trot through these ruins of once of a great Helghan city which now is just a warzone. Our nation was born form the flames of war. We've had war in our name, it is in our flag, and in our spirit. War is what made our nation, what made us Helghan. I trot and take a good look of this city, this warzone. My home. This city used to be a great and powerful city, this city is where our first victory was ever made in Helghan history. Where we first raised our flag that carried our name with in it. Where many victories were shared. Where our nation was born. Where I was born. Where I was raised.
Where I became Helghan.
I look back at the memories I had and shared here. The good ones. And the ones filled with sorrow. Most of my life started here. From birth to being able to learn and understand, then going through maturity then continue life on my own.
On my own I went and fought through wars with years with little food or water, I even fought with empty stomachs to fight for our nation. I spent sleepless nights shooting at the enemy and defending our nation. And some nights where I do get some sleep turn out to be cold as the winter wind. But most of them are sleepless. I went and fought through the worst for our nation. I don't fight for the metals or the respect and honor. Nor for the glory, I fight because it is what Helghan depends on. I fight to let our sons and daughters have a future.
I fight to keep our nation alive and keep the name that has been our nations for long as time went by.
The Helghast. That name is what keeps our flag tall and proud and what made us proud to serve for this nation. If I didn't fight Helghan would be nothing but a wasteland. We would all be dead and our flag would have never risen in the first place. If I didn't fight.....
The Helghast would never be a nation nor would it have a flag or an army.
The flag of our nation is what gave us that name and what gave us purpose in life. What gave us a reason to fight.
We fight for Helghan and for Equestria. Because Equestria is dying. Not by causes of the environment changing horribly. Because order is lost.
Because the elements have changed but not in a good way. Think about it as your nightmares and your fears and horrors came to life. Because thousands of us see it in that way. But they are all dead now. I was happy to see those bastards die. I cheered like if it were a mirical coming true. Those were the best days of my life to watch them die knowing what they turned into.
I even remember what Celestia became. I saw all of her sex toys. That molesting bitch.
Haven't we suffered enough?
***
I trot and hear guns being fired in the distance and hear bombs go off. I look at the devastation the ISA did to this once beautiful city, my beautiful home.
I look at the buildings that used to stand tall and proud. I saw them they were the tallest skyscrapers in Helghan history. But now I see them as ruins that were created by our enemy. They think we are monsters and are a nation that is filled with hate. They think we are evil as hell itself.
They have it all wrong. They lie to their soldiers, they lie to show them false words about us. They are the ones who are what they think of us.
They want to make us extinct. They want to kill every mother, father, son and daughter of Helghan. They think it is the right thing to do. So they declare war on us.
And we will show them war. We were born from war. And we know war more than anything else than you can imagine.
***
I trot again all alone. I look at my rifle, it is a StA-52 assault rifle the standard rifle our soldiers use. Death to the ISA was carved on the rifle. "Ok Torch.....You can do this, you can find him....Gun's hardly got ammo in it...." I say to myself. "At least my pistol is fully loaded."
"Time!? Where are you!?" I yell to get a answer. But no reply. "Time come out of where your hiding," I yell once again but still no reply. "Now Time that's an order!" I see him uncloak and trot up to me, he is breathing heavily as if he were angry enough to kill me. I think he is...
"Here I am! So what the fuck do you fucking want!?" He replied in a metallic voice. "Time Surge calm down and listen!" I reply back in anger. "W-Why s-should I FUCKING CALM DOWN!?" Time Surge replied in such anger. "Time it is not that big of a deal-" "Big deal!? Oh you don't know how big this is!" He interrupted me before I could continue my sentence.
"One of our squad members is dead, by setting off all of those charges taking him down with it! Colonel Radec killed himself! And Visari was killed! And YOU made me kill my best friend! How is THIS not a big deal!?" "Ok, Ok, but you can't still be that mad-" Time Surge pulled out his sniper rifle and shot it in the air. "You don't say?" He replied with a shaky voice. "I see....But you need to come back our squad needs you." "What squad?" He replied. "I don't have a squad!"
"Time Surge its victory or death! You have to come back!" "No sir," He said. Silence filled around us as we both starred at each other. "What did you just say?" I say breaking the silence. "No.....I said no." He said, I couldn't believe the words that are coming out of his mouth. "Did you just say-" "Yes I said 'no' sir." He interrupted me yet again.
"Sir I am done. What hope does Helghan have anymore? So.....I am done with our army, I'm done with this war." He said while removing his sniper rifle and his pistol. "Sir I am relieving myself from duty...." He trotted away from me and slowly started cloaking. "I quit...."
He through his dog tag at me. I caught it before it can land on the ground. As he drifted out of my line of sights I started remembering.
Remembering what it was like before....
Before these days........
Our Nation, Our People, And Equestria's downfall pt 1
My fellow brothers and sisters of Helghan, we all know why we are here. Years ago Equestria changed, changed horribly. And all of us were the first one to lay eyes on of what horrors came to our country. We all took a good look of what those horrors did. What those horrors did to what was once named The Elements Of Harmony. And what those horrors did to our country's leader. But those horrors asked if I would join them....But I refused. I Scolar Visari refused their offer! I took a look of what would happen if I did, what would it be like to see I Scolar Visari our nations leader become like them, to look at a sight like that, what would happen? Our people would fall into madness! Our cities destroyed by our own warriors! Our army will be nothing left but insanity and madness! And our nation.....Our nation would be just like Equestria.....But brothers and sisters it is time we stand and rise just like our flag did so long ago! Our nation and this war has been a secret for so long that even time that gives us our minutes, seconds, and hours can't remember. But today, today we will come out and show ourselves to the world! We will no longer hide our identities from Equestria! We will come out from the shadows that we hid in for generations! We show them who we are! We will show them what hid from plane sight that even the changelings never knew! We will take back that was once apart of this nation! We will make this country pure again! We will save them from the horrors that took what they loved all away! And today we will have our day!
Chapter 2
Our Nation, Our People, And Equestria's downfall pt 1
In a Helghast drop ship several years ago
I sit and wait in here trying to entertain myself or just look around to find anything interesting. I spy with my little eye is a Scout, Soldier, Capture Trooper, And other stuff... I think to myself trying to get something that will entertain me for awhile. I sigh and look at the roof of the drop ship. I stare at it for as long as I could, it seemed like an hour until I figured out what I was starring at seemed to do nothing at all.
I pulled out my army knife and pointed at my StA-52 assault rifle and start carving something on it. The Scout looked at me then spoke. "Hey what are ya doing with your rifle?" A metallic voice spoke. "Nothing much..." I replied. "Does 'using a knife to carve something on your assault rifle' means nothing?" I sighed and put my knife down and looked at him. "Well what do you think?" I say while waving my hoof around him. Then I picked up the knife and continued carving "So what are you doing then? Drawing a picture?" He chuckled.
"Hey why don't you add some flowers and rainbows and cute little butterflies!" The Capture Trooper insulted chuckling in his sentence. "Yeah, aren't you going to add all of that little filly stuff? heheheh." The Scout replied to the Capture Trooper's insult. "C'mon show us what you're drawing! I promise not to tell Radec about it." The Soldier insulted. I finished the carving and lifted my rifle and showed them what I did on it.
The Scout looked at it and read what I carved out lowed. "Death-to-the-ISA.....Well that was a waste of time." He said in an annoyed tone. "Fuck you...." I said after the Scout finished his sentence. "Hey don't swear. Swearing is bad for your health, because we are better in life than you." The Soldier said chuckling at his insult.
A voice came from the back of the drop ship that replied to the Soldier's insult. "Hey guys just leave him alone, he's just a privet for buck's sake." The voice came from a soldier wearing a hood like a scout would wear. And the goggles on his gasmask was yellow in stead of red. He had a sword case on his back. He even had a sword in there too. "Fine....But just for once." The Capture Trooper replied to the soldier's comment. "Do it again and I'll rip your lungs out...." The Soldier threatened. The Capture Trooper said nothing and looked away from him.
The Soldier looked at me then spoke. "Hey I got your back....These guys are assholes anyway," The soldier made a small laugh then continued. "So whats your name friend?" The Soldier asked. "My name is Stalker Torch Vice. But you can just call me Torch Vice." I replied to the Soldier's question. "Well you can call me Shadow Grave....But I just wanna be call Grave." "Why do you just want me to call you Grave?" I asked.
"Shadow Grave is my first name and what I ONLY call myself. Call me Shadow Grave so help me I'll rip out your heart and eat every single piece of it." He replied to my question with a serious tone. "You're just bullshitting me are you?" I said in a less concerned voice. "Have I ever lied to Visari when I was told that he had something important to know?" He said. "No neither would-" "Then I'm not bullshitting you." He interrupted sounding more serious than before.
I slowly moved my head away from him and looked somewhere else. "I can tell that your sweating." The Soldier said looking at me once again. I said nothing and continued looking at something that isn't him.
***
"Arriving at LZ point, decloaking until the light is switched to green. When switched all units are able to exit or to begin operation." The voice came from one of the speakers in the drop ship.
My radio in my helmet turned on and Colonel Radec spoke. "You know what to do soldiers, shoot to kill is allowed on anyone but your own squad members. You should already know that. Shoot to kill is even allowed on fillies and colts. I don't care if they are young, just kill them. If you find any of the Elements of Harmony shoot on sight. I don't even care if you kill them but Helghan will be proud of you if you will do so. Don't harm Princess Celestia or Luna unless when told to but Princess Cadence and Shining Armor can be exterminated. You should already know all of this by now. But you know why we're doing this...." Then the radio turned off.
A tall unicorn came up and said. "You heard Radec so when the light is green.....Do this for the sake of our nation and Equestria." "Sir Yes sir!" All of the soldiers in the drop ship replied and saluted. "Scout, make sure no one gets out alive," "Yes Captian Orion sir!" The Scout replied. "And that goes for all of you! Do you understand?" We all did a salute, then the light switched to green.
"Decloaking, all units exit drop ship 7893." The voice spoke again from the speakers. the drop ship doors opened and all of us loaded our guns and exited the drop ship. I looked at the scout, I saw him cloak like scouts normally do when in battle.
The Capture Trooper and the Soldier came with me. I looked at them and went back to work. "Hey," the soldier said. "If you want to insult me now's not the time." "We're hear to talk about what happened earlier," "Seriously now is not-" "We're here to apologize of what happened isn't that right Night Wing?" The soldier said while hitting his shoulder. The Capture Trooper sighed and spoke. "We....ugh....We're sorry...." He said while muttering something at the end of his sentence. "Ok then....So you guys know what to do and so do I."
A blade came out from the Capture Trooper's right hoof. I nodded at continued to my destination.
Princess Celestia's castle was just a minutes walk. I hid next to a near wall close to the main entrances to the castle. I equipped a silencer on my pistol and readied myself for the guards to attack.
I exited my cover and.... There were no guards.
Our Nation, Our People, And Equestria's downfall pt 2
But brothers and sisters this task isn't easy....To take back what was rightfully Equestria's and ours, many, many sacrifices must be made. The ones who were consumed by those horrors and this disease. They all must be put to an end....We have no choice but to make them extinct.....To save Equestria this must be done....Even the Elements of Harmony must be exterminated....Even Princess Celestia.....But take a look of what they become! Take a look of once hero's now just discorded nightmares! Take a look of what happened to Celestia! She rapes and molests her own people! Take a look at her and her sex toys that she keeps hidden away from her own people! But once she rapes and ruins their lives....She keeps them as sex slaves! We wont let order be broken no longer! No longer will this nightmare will haunt us! This nightmare will end! And us and our nation will be there to make sure it will end! But when it ends Equestria will call us hero's!
Our Nation, Our People, And Equestria's downfall pt 2
The slaughtering begins
I turned on my radio then spoke. "uh.... Captain Orion sir......There are no guards." I said in confusion. "Great! We can continue the operation smoothly." "But sir shouldn't there be guards guarding the place? I don't know why Celestia doesn't have any guards guarding this place." I replied. "Just do the operation. Or I would have you shot for not following orders." "Yes sir." I replied to the threat. Grave came to the entrance and pulled out his sword. There was a trigger on the bottom of it and there was a shotgun like structure on the top. "Whats that?" I asked. "Oh this? This is a A34-P1-12 Shotgun," He replied "It an't like one but it is good for swordsmen like me, and really good for door breaching, slicing up enemies, and the shotgun part can stop a rhino dead." He continued chuckling at the last part of his sentence. "Ah good old Helghan engineering!" The Soldier commented to Graves example. Grave pressed a button and the shotgun part opened and he aimed at the door bars and fired it.
I ran up to the door and kicked it open.
I loaded my rifle and ran inside the Soldier and Capture Trooper followed me so did Grave. "Open fire!" I yelled to my squad.
Then we started shooting at a group of guards, mares, stallions, and fillies and colts.
***
The scout still cloaked and still hunting. The scout found a door entrance the entrance said 'dungeons' "Well, well, well Celestia's dungeons....I'd hope she wont mind if I'd sneak around for a bit." The scout said to himself. The scout uncloaked and tried opening the door. "Damn. locked." the scout said in frustration. He heard a guard trotting to his direction. The guard was whistling a simple song and enjoying his day. The scout cloaked and pulled out his knife. The scout hid in a corner near the guard. The guard had the keys to the dungeons as well. The guard got close to the cloaked scout, then the scout quickly discarded his cloaked form and went behind the guard and put the knife close to the guard's neck.
He pushed the knife into the guard's neck and slid the knife to the right. The guard started chocking as blood rapidly started spilling from the cut. The scout put his hoof on the guard's mouth making it unable for the guard to give away the scout's position. "Shh!" The scout said to the chocking guard. The guard's gasps was getting fainter and quieter by the second. "Shh! Quite you! Shh!" The scout whispered to the guard. The gasps stated to get even quieter as more blood exited his body. "That's it. Its nearly done." the scout whispered once again to the guard. The gasps slowly ended and the guard stopped struggling for air nor did he gasp for it. "There we go." the scout said as he took the dungeon keys from the guard.
***
The large nail finally entered the filly's left hoof.
I heard the filly scream in pain yet again. "Please stop!" The filly said to me tears of pain started coming out of her eyes once again. "Its for your own good!" I yelled at her. I grabbed another large nail and picked up the hammer. The filly continued to cry as I put the nail on her right hoof. "No! please, please, please! No more!" The filly screamed in agony. "Oh shut up!" I replied to her as she tried to make me give her mercy. I slammed the hammer on to the large nail causing it to enter her hoof. The filly screamed in pain yet again as the hammer kept hitting the large nail. The nail finally was deep enough to keep the filly pined to the wall. "wh-why are you doing this?" the filly said through a sob. "I'm doing this because it what has to be done for the sake of my people and yours." The filly continued to sob. "I-I want to go home..." The filly sobbed yet again. "Naww does the poor little cry baby want to go to her DEAD mother? Does she want to join her?" I said in a angry tone. "N-No..." She sobbed once again and tears flowed strongly. "Then shut up! You little bitch!" I punched her in the muzzle. The filly continued to cry in pain, I pulled out my pistol and shot her in the back leg. "If you make another sound I'll fucking kill you! Then I will drag you out of hell, then fucking kill you again! You got that!?" I yelled at her in such rage. "Yes..." she sobbed yet another time. "Good," I replied. I loaded my pistol and pointed at her. "Now just close your eyes and the pain will all go away." The filly whimpered at the sight. "Don't worry I promise it'll be quick." The filly gulped and closed her eyes and cringed for the final blow.
I pointed at her head.
I pulled the trigger.
I starred at the filly's dead corpse that I brutally murdered. I started to feel sick in the stomach, like if I needed to vomit. I through off my gasmask and let out what I had for lunch. I looked at my shacking hooves then I looked at the river of blood that came from the filly. I saw my reflection. My fur was still always dark green I had since birth. And my mane still orange. And the unicorn horn that came with me at birth to. And my eyes, one side is green and the other is red. I put my hooves to my head and started panicking. "Oh god, oh god! What have I done!?" The soldier looked at me then trotted to me. "Whats going on here?" He said looking at my panicked form. "I can't believe I just did that to a filly!" I said while pointing a hoof at the filly's corpse that is nailed to the wall. "Yeah so?" The soldier said sounding if it were not a problem. "So!? That filly was fucking nailed to the fucking wall!" I replied still panicking. "Oh that....So you brutally murdered a filly, I did that to about three and I didn't started acting like this." The soldier replied still sounding if it meant nothing to him. I started breathing heavily of what I just heard from the soldier.
"Ok maybe that didn't help ya....So just calm down, don't look at the corpse, just calm down." I tried doing that it worked a bit but then I picked up my gasmask and trotted to somewhere else. "I'm going to clean the taste of vomit out of my mouth." I said in a shaky voice. "Ok....You go do that." The soldier replied. The Capture Trooper trotted to the soldier with a clipboard and pencil then spoke. "So we have the prisoners tortured both physically and painfuly, butchered, executed, nailed to the walls, and skinned." The Capture Trooper looked at Grave then spoke. "Hey Grave hows the skinning coming along?" He asked. "Just finished the last one. Last guy wouldn't stop crying so I had cut off his tongue." Grave said looking at the pile of skinned ponies "Ok...." The Capture Trooper said in a slight uncomfortable voice. He made a check mark on the clipboard. The clipboard had a list saying.
Torturing the prisoners: Check Butchering the prisoners: Check Executing the prisoners: Check Executing colts and fillies: Check Nailing the prisoners to the walls: Check Nailing colts and fillies to the walls: Check Skinning the prisoners: Check Skinning colts and fillies: Check
"Well we have stage one complete. So what happens on stage two?" The Capture Trooper said looking at the rest of the squad. Grave reloaded the shotgun part of his sword and put it back in it's case then trotted to The Capture Trooper.
"Well Night Wing we aren't doing stage two," Grave adjusted his sword and continued. "Stage two is the scout squad's job, the scouts our searching for anymore guards in important areas where stage three will take place. So the scouts have to find well any guards in the area the have to stealthily take them down." "So do we just sit here and wait?" Night Wing asked. "We wait until the scout squad says that stage three is a go. So yes we wait." Grave replied to Night Wings question.
"So what happens in stage three?" Night Wing asked again. "In stage three is when Helghast Battle Ships come and more drop ships will be sent, some drop ships will land in LZ point one witch is ponyville, then LZ point two is CounterLot, then LZ point three which is here. There will be other Battle Ships and drop ships in other parts of Equestria. The main part of stage three is a world wide invasion. That means The Helghast is given an order to 'shoot to kill' on anypony in Equestria it also means 'shoot first ask questions later'. Stage four is what Visari is doing. He planned that part that means NONE of us are allowed to start stage four."
"Does that mean we have to kill families too?" The soldier asked. Grave sighed then spoke. "Sadly yes. And it even means we have to kill their sons and daughters....But if we want to rebuild Equestria this must be done." Night Wing sighed as well then spoke. "Not like we have a choice." "Indeed." Grave replied to Night Wing's comment. "Victory or Death. Its been like that ever since our nation was born." The soldier said adding a piece of history into Grave's comment.
***
Back in the Helghast drop ship
Captain Orion was sitting down on one of the seats of the drop ship. "How much further until we reach the ship?" Orion asked to one of the pilots "Just about another minute sir." One of the pilots answering Orion's question. "Good." Orion said. Orion turned on his ratio and spoke. "This is Caption Orion is stage one complete?" He asked to one of the soldiers on the ground. "Stage one is complete sir, we just need to wait for stage two for it to be completed sir." "Good....I hope stage one gave Equestria our message." Orion said in a expecting tone. "I'm sure they got the message." The soldier commented on Orion's sentence. Orion chuckled and turned off his ratio.
The Battle Ship was in the pilots views and decloaked and landed in there. Orion got out and trotted to an elevator. He pressed the up button which the elevator started taking him in that direction. Orion trotted down a hallway and was greeted with a door with the Helghast symbol on it with two soldiers on each side of the door. As the door opened the soldiers made a salute as Orion walked in it.
There was a room where Orion walked in. Orion did a salute then spoke.
"Scolar Visari," Orion said. "What is it soldier?" Scolar Visari said in a calm tone. Visari turned around glaring at Orion. "Stage one is completed sir." Visari smirked and turned around and spoke. "Good....Leave....I'll ready myself when it is time for stage four." Visari said not even looking back at Orion. "Yes my lord." Orion replied. Orion turned around and exited the room.
As the Helgast army are readying for battle. And their soldiers readied as well. Equestria's downfall is beginning.
Our Nation, Our People, And Equestria's downfall pt 3
Our Nation, Our People, And Equestria's down fall pt 3
The Slaughtering is just the beginning. The War is the real thing.
The scout entered Celestia's dungeons and dragged the guard's corpse and closed the door. The scout turned on his radio then spoke. "Captain Orion this is Time Surge....I found Celestia's dungeons...." Time Surge said in a slight confused voice. "Yes go on." Orion said. "And Visari wasn't bullshitting when Celestia had sex toys," Time Surge said as his tone of voice changed into more of a surprised tone. It was true of what Visari said when Celestia changed. She started using sex toys for her own pleasure. Then she started taking her people and started to rape and molest them. She kept them hidden away from civilization and their families to be her own personal sex slaves. Even though how horrifying she turned into it disgusted Visari the most than how his people were. He hated it the most.
Even Visari would never do such a thing. If he were nearly start to think about that he would give himself a bloodied nose until that thought left him for good.
He lost his loyalty for Celestia, he used to have that loyalty when he was about the age of a colt, and when he was in the age of a full grown stallion, and when the war started between The Helghast and The ISA. Now if he ever saw Celestia he'd put a bullet in her head.
But he is forever loyal to his people. He'll even lose a limb just to protect his people. It makes him shutter to see or hear any of his people who are dying or any other tragic things that will happen to them.
But for Celestia....
She doesn't even give a shit about her people anymore. She only cares if they'll be good sex slaves.
And now the Helghast looks down upon her. Now they want to see her head on a silver plate.
"Indeed Time Surge...Plant charges in there, just in case if we are told to torch the place." Orion said. "Yes sir." Replied Time Surge. And with that Time opened a bag with several charges in there. Time was about to place a charge then. "You there!" A voice came from the corner of Time Surge's ear. Time quickly pulled out his pistol and aimed it at different dicertions. "You!" The voice spoke again.
"Please help me!" the voice spoke once again. Time put his pistol back in it's case then spoke. "Who-What do you want!?" Time said but he couldn't see who was talking to him. "Wow your voice is that low? You must have had some puberty...." The voice muttered. Time Surge rolled his eyes. He knows that the gasmasks that him and the rest of the Helghast wear makes their voices sound metallic. "I'm in the second cell! Hurry!" The voice spoke if he were about to be killed.
"If Colonel Radec finds out that I'm doing this he's going to have my head...." Time Surge muttered to himself. Time trotted to the cell and looked at who was calling him. It was a stallion and had grey fur and his mane and tail were black. His eyes were brown and his cutie mark was a book and glasses.
He had a chain on his neck, the chain was chained on the wall and it was long enough to let him walk around the cell. The cell was nearly covered in sex toys. Time Surge was disgusted by how much of these stuff Celestia uses. "Whoa nice suit you got there." The stallion commented on Time Surge's appearance. "Uh....Thanks.....But what do you want I'm.....Trying to....uh...." Time Surge said while looking around the place. "Well....I'm trying to set explosives here-" "I don't care about that just please," The stallion interrupted Time Surge before he could continue. The stallion didn't even seemed to care of what Time Surge was trying to do.
"Please for the love of god," The stallion plead. "Please kill me!" The stallion said with tears started to form from his eyes. The stallion started to sob for nearly a minute then continued. "Please just kill me!" The stallion sobbed. It was hard for Time to look at a full grown stallion to cry and sob. Even though there will be some moments in Time Surge's life that he'll cry and sob. But he never saw anyone to start crying just to be killed. He executed prisoners before but they were asking not to be killed. But someone asking to be killed. To start crying to have their life taken.
That made Time Surge shocked and confused. Hell he never would even think about anyone asking him to kill them. "What?" Time Surge said in confusion. "Kill me! Please kill me!" The stallion sobbed once again. Time Surge took of his hood and gasmask and looked at him. Time Surge had grey fur just like the stallion has. His mane and tail were blond lined with silver streaks. His eyes were just plane purple. And he had a unicorn horn as well.
Time Surge looked at the stallion once again, he even looked at how serious of the stallion's pleads. Time took a minute then spoke. "Wh....Why are you asking me this?" Time Surge said as he starred into the stallion's eyes. "Because.....How could I continue life knowing that I was molested and raped by our leader Princess Celestia!? That bitch ruined my life!" The stallion sobbed. "Please....I can't live life anymore....Please kill me...." The stallion said as his sobs started to slowly end.
Time Surge nodded yes and then the stallion grew a smile. Time pulled out his pistol then spoke. "But if I am going to kill you I want to hear your last words, it can be anything you say and I don't care what you will say...." Time said with a friendly smile. The stallion looked at Time Surge then spoke. "Thank you...." And that the stallion closed his eyes awaiting for Time Surge to take his life. Time readied his pistol and pointed it at the stallion's head.
He pulled the trigger. The sound of gunfire was immediately given as the trigger was pulled. And the bullet entered the stallion's head less than half of a second which also brought the stallion a quick and painless death.
A tear nearly formed in Time Surge's eyes. But he ignored it and put on his gasmask and hood. His radio turned on and the rest of the scout squad spoke. "Reporting Striker scout unit confirming stage two is completed awaiting for further confirms." "Reporting Eagle Eye scout unit confirming stage two is completed awaiting for further confirms." "Reporting Predator scout unit confirming stage two is completed awaiting for further confirms." "Reporting Hunter scout unit confirming stage two is completed awaiting for final confirm." The rest of the scout squad said.
Time Surge took a minute and spoke. "Reporting Time Surge scout unit final confirm that stage two is completed awaiting for further orders." Time said in a shaky voice. "This is Colonel Radec," Radec said in a slight demanding tone. "Reporting to all shall take ready for battle. Whoever is in the castle must await outside if there are any guards outside they must be exterminated." Radec said.
Time Surge's radio turned off. He loaded his sniper rifle and pistol and cloaked.
***
I trot back to the rest of my squad still cleaning the stench of vomit out of my mouth. Grave looked at me then spoke. "Hey Stalker hows it going with.....You know." He said while looking at the pile of vomit that was made after I ended the filly's life. "I'm fine....Thanks for asking." I said looking at my gasmask. "I'm probably going to have nightmares about what I did to that filly." I say while putting on my gasmask and helmet. The soldier trotted up to me and patted me on the back. "Well you'll survive." He said trying to cheer me up. "I guess." I replied. "Hey names Nick, no need of telling your name I already heard." Nick said in a cheerful tone.
Night Wing trotted to us and spoke. "Did you get the orders from Radec guys? Because stage three is starting and we need to hurry or Radec will have us both killed for being late." Night Wing said pointing at the exit. "Well that helped cheering me up." I said sarcastically. Grave trotted to the exit and spoke. "Well I don't want to be killed by Radec. So anyone coming or not?" Grave said while starring at us. "I'm coming....Because I'm thinking of what you said." I replied to Grave's sentence.
In the Helghast Battle Ship
Caption Orion trotted back to Visari's room. He was greeted the last time he came and so he did the same. Orion did another salute and spoke. "My lord, stage three will begin on your command." Orion said looking at Visari who is starring at a window showing soldiers marching.
Visari smirked and turned around and trotted to the exit. "I'll give our nation a word from their leader....That will be my command soldier." He said not even making notice of Orion. "Yes my lord." Orion replied.
Visari trotted out of the room and then entered a hallway with posters about their army and their flag with their symbol on it. Visari then trotted to a room with a place where he can make his speech.
Visari waved a hoof and two guards moved out of the way from the entrance of the room. A guard opened the entrance letting Visari enter. In the room there was Stalh, Colonel Radec, guards, and Caption Orion. There was a camera crew at a seat where Visari was going to make his speech. Visari sat down and then the camera pony started counting down from three
"We go live in three....two....one."
Today brothers and sisters is a day to remember. Today is a day that we will take back of what was token from Equestria. Today we will fight to win back that was once apart of this nation. We will make it pure like it once was. This nightmare this awful nightmare will be no longer existing. It made this country fall into madness....But not our nation. The madness changed families and ended many. The madness turned loved ones into killers, criminals, assassins. And turned once a kind and proud leader into....Something more worse than anything else that you and I can imagine. But today brothers and sisters we will no longer look at that awful sight! No longer will our sons and daughters cry in fear of that madness that they even watched corrupt many lives! Today our army our protectors of this nation will end it! Even if that means they will fight until their last breath exits their longs when they take back order to this country! We are Equestria's last hope! We are Equestria's last chance in survival! We will be the ones that saved thousands of lives to make them and this country pure again! We will be Equestria's saviours! We will be Equestria's hero's!
But the War is just beginning....
Our Nation, Our People, And Equestria's downfall pt 4
Our Nation, Our People, And Equestria's downfall pt 4
Equestria's downfall
Stage three: several hours latter
I stand in Celestia's castle where the Throne Room is. As royal guards are being executed by us, and as drop ships land with Helghast soldiers in them And Battle Ships wiping out millions in their tracks. And as the Helghast soldiers fire at the people that live in Equestria....Like if there was choice were we didn't have to do this..... As buildings fall and houses set on fire, and the things that Celestia's people love are taken away from them, then their lives next.
I know and we all know that at first after this is done they will think of us as monsters. They will think we did this just for the blood shed and the lives that will be ruined.
But they will one day they'll understand that we did this to help them, even though it didn't at first but.....What other choice did we have?
I look at the destruction of Celestia's throne room. Her stained glass all just broken glass. Outside of Celestia's castle is like a warzone. But no one defending the ones that we are attacking.
Celestia, Luna, Cadence and Shinning Armor were sent on their knees by Colonel Radec. It was the simplest task ever, not even Celestia put up a single fight. All what she did was cower in fear. Some leader she is. I couldn't help but to smile a little in my gasmask. I looked at the failure that is named Celestia. I looked at her in disgust of how she failed to keep her people from falling into madness.
Shinning Armor looked at Radec and spoke. "Why? Why are you doing this?" Shinning Armor said sounding if he were able to break free and attack Radec. Radec made a chuckle and started trotting around him. "Why? The reason why is a good one. But at first you will think we are wrong and assume that we are doing this just because we are like a dictator ship army who wants to take your land and make it ours....I will expect that to happen anyways." Radec finished his sentence with another chuckle. Radec went down to Shinning Armor's size then spoke "The reason why we butchered your guards that fight with you in battle, the reason we tortured your people and skinned them just for the fun of it, and even why we made colts and fillies have the worst death imaginable." Radec said as if he were enjoying to admit of what the Helghast were doing.
Shinning Armor glared at Radec. The gasmask that was on Radec showed no emotion. But in the inside he was smilling at him. Radec went down to Shinning Armor's size and spoke. "That reason.....Is because we are trying to make this fallen country pure again." Radec said starring into Shinning Armor's eyes. A puff of steam came out of where the mouth part of the gasmask, it blew on Shinning Armor's face if Radec were doing that just to make Shinning Armor even more angry than he already is. "That is....You're just making that up!" Shinning Armor yelled at Radec. "I wont believe your lies! BAH! Making Equestria pure again!? All what I see is Equestria being destroyed by you!" Shinning Armor said as rage burned into his eyes.
"I'd knew this will happen..." Radec said as he quickly pulled out his pistol and shot Cadence in the head. Radec sighed then spoke. "Just like the others said before you...." Then he pointed the gun at Shinning Armor's head and pulled the trigger. The bullet quickly entered Shinning Armor's head and quickly exited before the bullet cartage could land on the ground.
Smoke was coming out of were the bullet was fired on Radec's pistol. "I kinda hated you anyways Shinning Armor," Radec said as he trotted away from the unicorn's corpse. "I always knew you were a failure at being the captain of the royal guard." Radec taunted as he trotted to Stalh and Orion.
"How much longer until Visari arrives?" Orion said impatiently. "Learn to be patient Orion," Stalh said while putting his hooves behind his back as he trotted around the tall unicorn. "If you learn to be patient then we could all stop hearing you whining about it." Stalh insulted. Orion said nothing and continued to wait.
A capture trooper came to Orion there was a mare struggling to break free and escape from the capture trooper's grip. The capture trooper was a earth pony he didn't have nothing else to show but the mare on his grip.
The mare had stitches on her body and face. Her mane and tail were grey and black, and her eyes were white and black. The white eye looked if that eye was blind, but to her it worked just fine, there are bumps on her back if the bumps were once wings.
Stalh smiled at the sight. "I found this piece of shit trying to kill one of the scouts outside. Bitch was hard to shut up, she is just saying she wants to be let go. What should we do, should we kill her or you can do anything about it Stalh?" Stalh looked at the mare then spoke. "It was nice of you to bring Rainbow Dash here," Stalh said in a type of proud tone "She should already learn-Oh wait," Stalh frowned and slapped Rainbow Dash and spoke. "Discorded fucks never learn shit...." Stalh said wiping blood of of his hoof. Rainbow Dash coughed some blood then spoke.
"Who the fuck are you?" She said eyeing some of the soldiers trying to get a look of what their appearance looks like. Orion totted to the discorded wingless walking corpse. Smoke came out of his gasmask like when Radec did that to Shinning Armor. "Let our leader Visari tell you, you good for nothing discorded shit." Rainbow Dash smirked and spoke.
"Your 'Visari' is nothing but a pile of shit than a leader." The discorded Dash insulted. Once Orion heard that he pulled out his pistol and shot her left back leg. Dash made a scream and said "GAH! Fuck you!" She swore at the tall stallion.
Orion was about to make a punch to her face then Radec came and said. "Orion! She had enough," Radec said as he was holding Orion's hoof that was about to hit Rainbow dash with. Radec looked at the capture trooper and spoke. "Give her to Stalh. At least he can manage a mare like her." The capture trooper let go of Dash and pushed her to Stalh. "Oh and one last thing," Radec said to the capture trooper. "What is it sir?" The capture trooper asked.
Radec pulled out his pistol and shot the capture trooper in the head. "You are no longer needed." And with that Radec went back to the soldiers and awaiting for the final stage.
***
I saw the doors open and came in was Visari. He was followed by two guards holding our flag. There was six soldiers behind the two guards with the flags. Many of us started to kneel when Visari was trotting to Celestia. Once Visari looked at Celestia he already frowned at her look. Her mane and tail are now just bright pink in stead of what it used to be. Her accessories were different and what nearly surprised Visari that her cutie mark is a bit different than it s original
A camera crew came and started setting up. "Hey whats with the cameras?" Asked Rainbow Dash. Visari looked at Rainbow Dash and spoke. "Quiet discorded loyalty.......You have no right to speak," Visari said glaring at Dash. "And that goes for you Luna and especially you Celestia." The earth pony said as he trotted around them.
The camera pony looked at Visari and spoke. "We go live in three....two....one."
As the the Helghast battle ships holographic screens turned on at the outside rears of the ships
Visari smirked and looked at the camera then spoke. "This is a message for my people and the monsters that plague this country," Visari said as he looked at Colestia. "My name is Scolar Visari....I am a leader of a nation called The Helghast. We have been hidden from plane sight for generations, we have been hiding in the shadows for as long as time continues. Our nation was born from the flames of war. And we know war more than ever, war is what brought this nation to life. But war was declared on us. Because other's thought we are a nation of hate and evil. But we showed them.And now this happened. This nightmare," Visari glared at Celestia, he trotted up to her and spoke.
"Celestia.... Explain all of your sex toys that you keep hidden away from your people. Explain why do you rape your people. Explain why do you ruin your people's lives and keep them as sex slaves! Tell us why this nightmare continues! Tell us why you failed your people!" Visari said looking down upon her. "Th-That is not true! I would never do such a thing!" Celestia lied. Visari through something at her. It was a picture of her dungeons. There were whips, and other sex toys that could be found.
Visari smirked and spoke. "Explain this...." Visari said smirking at Celestia. Celestia said nothing and looked at the soldiers who are looking at her in disgust. Visari turned around to the camera and spoke. "Your leader is a molesting whore! She ponynaps her own people and turn them int sex slaves! Even fillies and colts! And would there be any redemption for discorded ponies like her?" Visari looked at Celestia and rainbow Dash and spoke. :"NO! There is no redemption! Since the elements changed and so their leader there will never will be redemption! They'll never get redemption! They will be damned for the rest of their lives!" Visari yelled at the camera.
Visari looked at Rainbow Dash and spoke. "Not even you..." He said eyeing her. Visari brushed some dust off his suit and continued. "At first when you were brought back to life, our people prayed for you that you'll help end this nightmare. Even stories were written and read about it." Visari looked up at the sky remembering of what happened years ago.
Then he looked back at Dash frowning at her. "When we found news about you coming back to life we thought our prayers have been answered.....Oh how wrong we were. Our prayers were thrown back at us like a crumbled piece of paper!" Visari pointed at Rainbow Dash and spoke. "You've started killing innocent lives just to get you damned revenge!" Visari scold at Rainbow Dash. "You've killed our sons and daughters dreams! You ruined their hopes and dreams! The songs and stories were all gathered and put in flames!" "Even suicides were made when some of my people found out!" Visari nearly grew a tear but quickly wiped of before anyone could notice.
"But then we turned our hopes to Celestia...." Visari looked at her then frowned once again. "But once again our hopes and prayers were crushed, killed, thrown back at us like if we had no reason to dream....To care for this country." Visari grew a small smirk and looked at Rainbow Dash.
"Tell me discorded loyalty," His smirk grew and he turned around at one of the remaining stained glass that showed the Twilight, Rarity, Apple Jack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie defeating discord.
Visari's smirk grew into a full smirk then spoke.
"How are your friends?" He said eyeing Dash. "My friend Pinkie Pie became a killer.....That's all I have to say." Rainbow Dash frowned when she spoke about Pinkie. Visari chuckled then spoke. "I meant all of your friends." Visari sounded like if he were excited to hear her next words. "All of them?" Rainbow Dash said sounding if she were confused to hear some one say that.
"Well....I'm waiting..." Visari said glaring at her. "I-I don't know...." Dash said looking at the ground. "Well discorded loyalty....You'd wish you'd stopped your killing when I tell you this." Visari's words sounded if he were to slap it in her face with torture instore. "Twilight is experiencing paranoia for a second time.....But this time its worse." Visari sighed after his sentence then spoke.
"She now thinks about friendship....But the way she thinks about it," Visari shuttered then continued. "She thinks about it if it were the only thing that was the world only cares for! It is so unhealthy of what she even does with friendship now! She has been in three mental asylums and nothing worked to cure her from insanity!" Visari clapped and two capture troopers came one of them was holding Twilight and the other was holding spike. "Hey let me go!" Spike said to the capture trooper.
Visari loaded a revolver and pointed at spike's head. "Quiet dragon or I'll have you killed." Visari threatened. "Why should I listen to you!?" Spike snarled. Visari knocked the revolver and pulled the trigger. Spike was shot in the head and a hole was left in his forehead. Visari trotted away from the young dragon's corpse then spoke. "I told him, but they never listen." He said not even looking back at the dragon's corpse.
Twilight was just mumbling words and randomly looking at different area's. Rainbow Dash was shocked that Scolar Visari had the guts to put a bullet in Spike's head. Visari looked at Rainbow Dash then spoke. "Now take a look at her, take a look of what insanity consumed her." Visari trotted around Rainbow Dash as he spoke his sentence.
Twilight's eyes went into different directions just like pinkeamena does when she shows her insanity. And a demented smile grew on her face showing her insanity as well.
Caption Orion pulled out a pistol and spoke. "May I end Twilight my lord?" Orion asked. "I insist." Visari replied, he even didn't bother to even slightly look at Orion. Orion trotted to Twilight, he looked at the camera pony then spoke. "Would you be so kind if you'd focus the camera at me?" Orion asked. The camera pony turned the camera to Orion, the tall stallion readied his pistol then spoke. "Twilight Sparkle...." Orion said ready to bring whats coming to the insane unicorn. "I always hated you even before you went insane." Orion pointed his pistol at Twilight's head and shot her.
The demented smile was ended and her eyes went back to the proper spot. Dash's eyes widen and she yelled at Orion. "You couldn't just let her say goodbye!?" Dash yelled. "Oh you should have seen the rest! I should have killed them!" Orion replied in anger. Visari came and slapped Dash. He looked at Orion then spoke. "That's enough Orion....Now I shall continue." Visari said. "Yes my lord." Orion replied
The camera focused on Visari, Visari spoke once the camera focused on him. "I'm also quite surprised that discorded loyalty actually cared for one of her friends....The cupcake killer says that she has no friends." I shuttered in disgust once Visari said 'cupcake killer'. "And Rarity is in a drop ship being put in a prison cell. Just like the cupcake killer. Fluttershy was executed same with Apple Jack" Visari said.
Visari knocked his revolver then he spoke to the camera. "But today my people, today we are ending Equestria's fallen leaders! What good did they do when the madness started!? They didn't even bother helping the elements or their people! Celestia only cared if she'd molest her people! Just like Rarity! And now......We'll end their useless lives."
Celestia smirked then spoke. "How can you kill an immortal?" Celestia chuckled after she spoke her sentence. Visari pointed his revolver at Luna and pulled the trigger. Luna was shot and surprisingly was killed once the bulled made contact with her head. Rainbow Dash and Celestia's eyes both widen. Visari even has the guts to harm Celestia and Luna. "You were saying?" Visari grew a smirk and Celestia's faded into a panicked look. "And now....Celestia it is time that there will be new leaders taking your place, leaders that can make this country pure like you failed miserably at." Visari said taunting Celestia.
Excitement was filling in my chest. I can finally watch Celestia die for what did to many of her people. Visari kocked the revolver.
He pulled the trigger.
Once Celestia was shot every Helghast soldier started cheering. Even Grave, Nick, Time Surge and Night Wing was cheering. Even I couldn't help to cheer at the beautiful sight. Rainbow Dash's eyes widen and her jaw dropped to see some one kill Celestia and to cheer for it.
Rainbow Dash got up and knocked Visari's revolver off of him and pointed it at him. Every Helghast soldier in the area pulled out their weapons and so did I. We aimed our weapons at Rainbow Dash. "Freeze!" Dash yelled at Visari. Visari smirked at let a hoof up telling us to put down our guns. We followed his orders and we did what he asked. Visari looked at Rainbow Dash then spoke. "Do you have any idea of what you are doing discorded loyalty?" Visari asked. "Stop calling me that!" Rainbow Dash yelled. "I am calling you that because the name 'Rainbow Dash' has no reason to be said anymore." Visari taunted. Rainbow Dash knocked the revolver. Visari showed no fear then he spoke. "If you kill me Helgan will end up just like Equestria did. If you kill me my people will fall into madness and insanity! If you kill me you will soon realize that you could have stopped the madness from taking the rest of your friends! Kill me then you'll be told that you brought madness to another nation! So kill me if you are even willing!" Once Visari finished his sentence he raised his hooves giving Rainbow Dash a clear shot.
Rainbow Dash dropped the revolver and raised her hooves and spoke. "Fine you win...." Rainbow Dash said in defeat. I trotted up to her and whacked her with my rifle. She fell unconscious once I hit her.
Night Wing picked her up and we all left the Castle and we left Celestia's corpse to rot in hell.
As the Helghast left with destruction behind them. They have done what needs to be done. But the mission is not completed
Today brothers and sisters. Today wanted me just to cry in tears of joy and share how proud I am. How proud I am, to serve you all. Ten years ago turned into newer dark times. Many good ponies turned into freaks, assassins, and killers. But three years pasted since that was happening. And I saw if something didn't stop it now all equestrians and our nation would be extinct. But I had a new dream. Not to end the ISA from taking over our nation. This dream was about.....Hope. Peace. Order. I wanted to see families be reborn. I wanted to see the loved ones remembering who they loved. I wanted to see the tears of sorrow end. But I thought that was just a dream. And I never did believe dreams would come true.....But I looked back at my people and the warriors who protect them. So I told you that nightmare was happening, but I didn't believe anything could end it. But you were worried if the madness would come to our nation and did what it did to many. But.....What you've shown me made me proud. You showed me that there was hope! You showed me that Equestria can be saved! And, you showed me that dreams can come true! And you made my dreams come true. My dream is to serve you and forever care for you. To care for you like a father. And to help stop a nightmare. Thank you. All of you. For bringing my hopes and dreams to come True.
Chapter 3
Going on a hunt
I stand here in front of maybe ten or twelve dead discorded bodies. I can count them but the dig crew is tossing their bodies in the hole. I am at factory in the rainy parts of Helghan. Or maybe where I am is more of a slaughter house than a factory of what I’ve looked of it so far.
I’ve looked at the hole before the firing squad, A.K.A my squad executed them. The hole is defiantly more than six feet underground, and I can’t tell if there are a hundred and twenty discorded dead bodies or more than that. What I’ve could possibly tell there is more than one hundred bodies down there.
And today reminds me of when we had to attack Equestria. It’s been six years since we’ve attacked still haven’t rebuilt what was left of Equestria. We’ve built cities of what we’ve destroyed but we haven’t got rid of the discorded, but it’s been six years so we didn’t get too far into ‘Visari’s dream’. And we were also more advanced than Equestria was. We had better firepower than they did. We had a lot of things that they didn’t have.
We are just more powerful than Equestria.
And Helghan was way at the south of Equestria. Our country is actually at the back of the planit.
Helghan has lots of bad weather, some parts are always raining. Some parts are like the arctic, and some parts are like deserts.
And I’ve been ranked into a sergeant six years ago, because I’ve captured Rainbow Dash when the Helghat attacked Equestrua, and Orion made me a sergeant for doing that. Because he was proud of me.
“Torch Vice!” A voice said. I jumped a little and turned to Orion’s gasmask. “I’ve been calling your name eighteen times!” Orion said angrily. “Sorry sir...I was daydreaming.” I replied and adjusted my gasmask. “Can you at least pretend to do your job?” Orion said while putting his hoof at his goggles of his gasmask.
I trotted away from him with a sigh. “This is me pretending to do my job...” I muttered.
Orion looked at the corpses at the hole as the last one was thrown by Nightwing and Grave.
“Well at least you did some of it.” Orion said
TimeSurge was leaning at a troop carrier muttering to himself. I looked at him and sighed and made my way to him.
“TimeSurge stop complaining about the rain and get to work.” I ordered the scout. “Well sir it looks like that we are already done with the bodies and we can just let the dig crew to take care of the digging thing.” He said. “We’re all tired of hearing your complaints, you complain when it’s too cold, you complain when it’s too hot, and you complain when you’re at the rainy parts of Helghan, and you complain when you’re doing hard work. So I’d like to see you do something that is not complaining that I’ve seen for the past three years.” I ordered again.
I used my horn to levitate a shovel to TimeSurge. “Oh no I’m not doing dig crew again; I’m a sniper, not a pony who digs holes for a military career!” TimeSurge complained. “Well I can make you dig holes for a military career instead of you being a sniper.” I said to the sniper. He knows I have the power to do so.
TimeSurge sighed and grabbed the shovel out of my grip. I saw him trotting to the ponies that were putting their shovels in a big pile of dirt and barring the hole with the bodies.
I smiled a little in my gasmask as I watched him with the dig crew.
I saw Orion trotting up to me while being escorted by two guard troopers
“Stalker Torch Vice,” He began “The reason I was calling you because there is something important I would like to talk to you.” He said. He trotted to me his size is almost like Luna’s...Before Visari shot her.
Some ponies question his size and sometimes I do. It is strange for some pony to be nearly the size of an alicorn. But Orion never answers any question about his past, childhood, and even why he is taller than most of us. But we just didn’t bother to ask if he won’t answer.
Orion made a little nod he trotted away from me expecting me to follow. I did so and followed.
I looked around the area, the area had dropships landing with some troopers or some would have a capture trooper exiting with a prisoner or a dead body from the ISA, or just a random body.
I heard gunfire I looked where the source was. There was two standard soldiers and one capture trooper, they were killing two foals and one mare. I looked away from the sight.
I've seen so much of that I just don't even care about it.
Orion looked at me I don’t know what he is up to but I’m waiting if one of us would speak.
“So Torch, have you heard of the Wonderbolts?” Orion asked. “Yes I’ve only read about them but not seen them in person, until you killed spitfire four years ago.” I answered
Orion chuckled at my answer; he paused for a second and continued. “Yes Torch Vice that I did, she was a pain to make her stop flying away and begging me not to kill her, I said I’ll make it quick and painless but she kept trying to fly away. So we had to cut off her wings. But she had to make things difficult so we had to do it without surgery. I tried to be nice of letting her have a quick death; which I rarely do but she had to make things worse for me and her.” Orion said looking back and the memory.
“Anyway, back on topic.” Orion looked at pegasi capture troopers heading to the ground. Orion then looked back at me then spoke. “We both know about the Wonderbolts. But have you heard about the Shadowbolts?” Orion asked
“No sir. I mean, I’ve never really heard much about the Shadowbolts. The only thing I’ve heard about them is that pegasi who were rejected or kicked out of the Wonderbolts join the Shadowbolts and become kind of like bad guys or something. And some rubbish about Nightmare Moon." "And I only know little about them I’m not a full expert on the Shadowbolts and their relationship with the Wonderbolts.” I answered .
“Well I suggest you get a book about them, but the reason why I even brought up the Shadowbolts is that they are being a problem.” “What do you mean ‘problem’?” I asked “We sent a convoy with a couple of troops and some equipment...We lost them about three weeks days ago, and now I’m not asking but ordering you and your squad to take care of them.” “You want me and my squad to kill some stupid Shadowbolts? Why didn’t you tell me that earlier?!”
“Because I was in the Outterlands of Helghan that day, and I was in the south parts there too; you know how long it is to get there and back.” Orion said “Right...And why do you need me and my squad?” Orion sighed then paused for a brief moment. “Because your squad hasn’t been in the field for three years...It’s about time you’d use a pistol on moving targets.” Orion said. I made a small laugh when he said his sentence.
“We’re also sending a squad of capture troopers and some extra troops. Just encase all hell bursts or if you’d screw things up.” “HA! When have I ever screwed up?!” I laughed at Orion’s offer “Well there was that time where Rainbow-”
“Hey, how was I suppose to know that there was a blackout?! We’ve could’ve stopped the ISA from attacking the prison and probably killed Rainbow Dash for escaping!” I yelled at Orion for bringing up that wound. “And you didn't want any backup generators because you thought the crappy ones were ‘perfectly fine.’” I spoke again bringing up Orion’s mistake.
“Alright Torch... I kinda screwed up a bit that day...Can we just accept that it was little mistake and that Redac wasn't angry enough to make us chop off our own heads...” Orion said ending the conversation.
“I’ll just get my squad and get this done with.” I said. Orion nodded and I left to get my squad ready.
“Grave can you help me with the shoveling?” TimeSurge asked. “For the love of Visari TimeSurge, I’ve been doing almost all of the work and you’ve only put seven piles of dirt! Besides we’re almost done. And why are you always so lazy? You weren’t like this three years ago.” Grave said in annoyance. “Because,” TimeSurge began
“It’s about-” “Listen up!” I said as I interrupted the sniper’s sentence.
“What do you want us to do this time?” NightWing said as he took of his gasmask. He spoke if he were displeased to see me. I stared at the capture trooper for a second with a bit annoyance of his tone but I continued.
“It’s been three years since we’ve been in the field...” NightWing’s ears perked up, something shows me he’s excited. “So we are gonna be hunting Shadowbolts!”
Nightwing jumped in the air in joy and flew around cheering. He hoped this day will never end.
A line with rows of different ponies and species all of them are bombarded with security cameras, helghast police, security officers, ATACs and propaganda. Through all of the heavy security placed on the border there was more propaganda than regular security personnel.
“Helghan welcomes you to New Canterlot, we are pleased for your arrival, and your arrival will be the future of the Helghast’s fight for a new Equestria! We are grateful you and your service here in New Canterlot.” An automated voice said.
The voice was being repeated by speakers that were placed all around the border’s security entrance.
For new comers who are integrating to Helghan or Helghast cities are unaccustomed to their advanced technology and culture. The way that the Helghast people always wear gasmasks and almost all of them have grey fur and their manes and tails are white or don’t have any manes or tails at all.
The Helghast say it’s the toxic oxygen in Helghan that caused them to be slightly dying and their colours changed for the first generation of Helghast people, they had to wear gasmasks for the toxic air, later they grew to be immune to the toxic fumes and some didn’t need their gasmasks that they most desperately need.
Despite their looks they are known for their brutal civil protection and their mass propaganda. The helghast police forces are a mixture of riot police and swat teams; their uniforms are armed with the standard helghast military assault rifles and equipped with swat team armor and riot police equipment as well. They get their equipment from the successful weapons company called ‘Stahl Arms’.
Normal security guards lack riot armor and are only equipped with swat team equipment and wearing small caps, sometimes they are accompanied with one or two capture troopers.
They are aggressive to helghast citizens and possibly abuse them if they so wish to. Being arrested however is a slight concern for anyone who either break a law (other than robbery or murder) they are never seen again. Stahl Arms claims that whoever is arrested is immediately jailed without any court sentence, and the company's arrest program has been approved by Scolar Visari.
Propaganda has been littered throughout Helghan and many other helghast cities. Some are about the downfall of Vekta and the helghast military being victorious or police telling citizens to obey the law, their most recent addition in propaganda is ‘The Helghast Change’. The Helghast Change is world genocide of the discorded ponies, they put pictures of helghast soldiers impaling Discord with a flag with their symbol on it and with text in the helghast alphabet saying “Discord will meet justice!” and other similar posters.
The line of integrators slowly moved due to the huge numbers of people in the line. It was claustrophobic and overcrowded, many who were integrating started to feel regret of making their choice coming to new canterlot. They may be scared of the heavily armed guards around every catwalk or different security checkpoints around the border.
A mare was at the last checkpoint, she wore a black hoodie and she had oxygen tubs attached to a hoof sized oxygen tank strapped on the back of her neck.
In front of her was a small booth with a griffon wearing level two shock trooper armor, the booth was guarded by three police officers and one capture trooper, one of them was a unicorn, two were earth ponies, and the capture trooper was a pegasus. The booth had a kind of scanner that can detect weapons and contraband.
The mare waited four hours of hoof breaking sanding and slow moving, all what she needed to do is get past this last check point.
“Next.” The griffon ordered. A stallion trotted to the booth and stopped at the center of the booth. Three buttons on the censer flashed followed by beeping was heard as the scanner scanned the stallion. The lights turned green showing approval. “You’re clean, next.”
The mare trotted to the scanner, she felt slightly unnerved as the capture trooper was starring at her, she could hear faint growling from him that sounded like a lion or a wolf is ready to pounce at her at any given moment.
The buttons on the scanner flashed green showing the mare approval.
“You’re clean.” The griffon stated.
With a sigh of relief the mare trotted to the exit and entered new canterlot. As she entered the city there was a faint smell of pollution and the sound of metallic voices talking or arguing about their trains being late.
The mare looked at a train that just arrived and had a sign that said ‘City District Level 1’. It must mean it would take her to a civil part of the city.
As the train doors opened the mare was surrounded by mostly helghast ponies, all of them were grey and had a white mane and tail, bald or wearing a gasmask or wearing oxygen tubs. The mare and fourteen other passengers boarded the train, there were no seats but railings on the sides on ceiling. There were five square shaped tape layed on the floor in a row of three that marked where to stand. The train appeared only fit fifteen passengers and one security guard. The mare and the passengers lined themselves on the squares, the mare was standing next to the security guard who appeared to be a earth pony and armed with an assault rifle.
“Excuse me sir do you know where city district level one is?” The mare asked “No talking!” The guard shouted at her loudly. Showing a hint of annoyance she tried to ask the guard again but was immediately shouted at by the guard.
“I said no talking! And eyes forward!” The guard shouted.
The mare quieted down and looked at a grey metal wall with no windows.
