Chapter 14
First Encounter (The battle of Green Lake town part 1)
Sneak Peek...
"Ring the bells! The changelings are coming!" shouted a pegasus scout as strong as he could. The little light the moon gave made his fast landing difficult. He fell down hard against the floor. Immediately, three royal guards helped him up.
He had landed in the main part of the army camp, with general Silver's tent in front. Many soldiers around got out of their tents, sleepy eyes clearly visible by the light of both the moon and some fires that were lit all around the camp.
SilverInk got out of his tent as soon as he heard the word changeling, though he wasn't sure he had heard it right. He had been on his table, checking some maps and thinking of the future battle right before he heard the shout.
He walked until he was standing just a few feet from the scout.
"Repeat that," he said, clearly concerned.
The scout breathed hard. "Changelings sir... tons of them... the hills... many more..." The scout suddenly fell down, passing out. Everypony around stared in shock, clearly unsure of what to do. The royal guards looked to each other, troubled. General Silver looked around.
Louis woke up as he heard the commotion outside. He stood up and quickly looked out of the tent.
SilverInk cleared his throat.
"What are you waiting for fools! Sound the bells!" he exclaimed angrily.
Immediately, two huge bells that had been placed on a tower began to sound, their chiming quickly waking everypony up and alerting the little town not far away. Ponies got out of their tents, hurrying to be ready.
Louis ran around his tent, quickly putting on his uniform. He took his belt and put it on, strapping the sword to it. He also placed his gun on the belt and quickly took his rifle. He walked outside and walked over to organize the ponies under his command.
As he walked, he noticed that all around ponies moved doing their different tasks. Platoons organized in lines as fast as they could, officers barked out orders and organized the troops to stand in lines and get ready with their armor and their weapons. Weapons where quickly taken from the armory, as well as armor and shields. The equestrian lines quickly formed up outside of the camp, all facing the south and their general, SilverInk, who was looking at them.
Louis began to walk towards him.
"General, we are ready to move," a unicorn officer said. Silver looked around until he saw general Ace walking towards him, full in his armor and carrying a long sword on his back. He also noticed Louis walking towards him with the equestrian battle uniform and his large metal stick that spitted fire strapped to his back. He felt his anger rise but quickly ignored it. Not time for that now.
"General, the third regiment is ready," Louis said as soon as he reached him.
"And so is the second," said a tired Ace. He had clearly been awoken by the bells.
"And the first..." Silver said. "I guess that means we are ready to go." He turned to Ace. "Ace, remember to protect the left flank. I'll take the center and the right flank. Louis..." He turned to the german. "Remember to keep your troops ready in case the battle starts to go badly for us. You have the reinforcements, and they can prove out to be our last hope, so be ready." He looked at the troops. "We move now..." he said, almost in a whisper. Both Ace and Louis nodded as the walked off to their regiments.
