*SPOILERS* Pilot Lights' cutiemark story(In her own words) *SPOILERS* · 1:15pm Jun 25th, 2019
This same text is in Chapter 3 if you don't want spoilers you can wait.
"....I was on an expeditionary mission with the previous special forces head and their second in command, we were searching NMC for supplies, the other two got torn up by some maticore looking thing. Died a few minutes after. My barding got ruined and my pistol got it's barrel bitten off, so I holed up in the police station. It's were I got this barding in-fact, I was looking through it for a while and I found a RMCW, a rapid fire magical weapon, only made here, I used it to survive getting through the back and across a block into this rocket facility, I jury rigged it so it would work so that it would explode after being activated."
"Lured most of the creatures there with some choice explosives and a few shots to certain areas, they all ganged up around there and I activated the rocket, and hid in a fridge that was bolted down, like in that one 'Daring Do' book, it went off killed or wounded the creatures and I flew off, took the dog-tags of the other two, I ended up getting a cutimark in the shape of a rocket engine zoomed on the pilot light. It left an impression on the higher ups about who should get the promotion." I said looking at them flatly. "You should feel lucky by the way it cost my squad-mate years and multiple drinks to find that out."
