Meanwhile, during the time that Twilight and her team escort Applejack back to the LR hideout in the sewers, the emergency conference back at Canterlot is now in session. There, Tirek, Queen Cicada, and several of the other nobles and commanders who were on Majesty Blueblood's side have all gathered in the meeting room to go over what had happened recently. After Queen Majesty made her speech, explaining the incident that occurred back in her castle, everyone of her allies and officers were completely shocked at hearing this twisted turn of events.

"Wow, I-I don't believe it." Tirek said to himself before speaking to Majesty Blueblood. "So, you were saying that Princess Celestia actually revived Princess Twilight Sparkle, in which already occurred right under our noses even after we took over Equestria?!"

"Yes, that's exactly the point, Tirek." Majesty said to Tirek. "If I didn't know any better, I would've thought all of our hard work to take over Equestria would be far from over."

"So, what happened to Morning Blade and you're father?" One of the nobles asked Majesty. "Why aren't they joining us in this meeting?"

"WEREN'T YOU LISTENING, LORD BRONZE??" Majesty yelled at him, hating to repeat herself during the conference. "General Morning Blade received a concussion after getting jumped by Princess Twilight and is now sent to the hospital to recover. As for my father, he doesn't want show himself in front of the public while being crippled."

"Wait, you mean Lord Amadeus was...?" Lord Bronze said before his question was interrupted.

"Yes, my father got beaten up by Twilight Sparkle too." Majesty said in a calmer voice. "You should've seen the look on my father's face when he was being treated of his injuries."

"Was any pony else helping Twilight during that incident?" Tirek asked.

"My father did say that a blue female unicorn named Trixie Lulamoon was with Twilight." Majesty explained to Tirek.

"Man, I should've went after that unicorn when I had the chance." Tirek muttered to himself. He still remembered the time that the very same blue unicorn that he ran into was able to escape his grip, in which was way before he ran into Unicornia and formed an alliance with them when he was recruited by General Morning Blade.

"Well, they did say that Trixie Lulamoon used to be one of Twilight's rivals. She used to a be a boastful unicorn, a lunatic, and a liar of all sorts." Majesty explained to Tirek. "But because of how Twilight forgave her of her misfits, she never felt discouraged by Twilight in the slightest. Well, General Blade was about to have her locked up in prison, along with Rainbow Dash and Spike, but Twilight showed up and got Trixie out."

"By the way, what happened to that fashionista that was making dresses for you?" One of the nobles asked Majesty.

"I hate to say this, but Twilight and Trixie helped Rarity escape." Majesty said. "Don't bother going after them. We don't know where they are hiding at the moment. It's just going to be a waste of time pursuing them on a wild goose chase; just like when Morning Blade and his men made a foolish attempt in going after Discord for some unexplained reason."

"Well, if we were to proceed further in carrying out the new order of Unicornia, we do need to exercise with extreme caution from now on." Queen Cicada suggested to every pony and creature.

"You know, I think you're right Cicada." Majesty said to the Changeling Queen. "There's no telling where and when will Twilight and her assassin group would strike next; it could be anywhere."

"Not to worry, my queen." Another pony noble spoke to Majesty. "I already made preparations in testing out some new experimental soldiers to serve in the Unicornian Army. Believe me, they won't go down that easily like those royal guards you have in your castle."

"I hope you're right about that Professor Felhand." Majesty replied to him a serious tone of voice. "We also have some new experimental weapons that need to be tested first as well, but only if some pony would stop stealing the weapon's blueprints and materials from our science research center in Manehattan."

"You've gotten nothing to worry about your highness." Professor Felhand spoke to the Queen in calm voice. "We'll start deploying them as soon as possible."

"You do what you have to do Felhand." Majesty acknowledged. "Tirek, Cicada. Don't forget to have your soldiers to test out the new experimental weaponry that Felhand had sent to your kingdoms. They might help you deal with Twilight Sparkle and her assassins."

"Understood, Majesty Blueblood." Both Tirek and Queen Cicada acknowledged.

"One more thing, Felhand." Majesty spoke to him. "As soon as these so-called experimental soldiers are ready for deployment, have them to rendezvous with me at the palace."

"By the way your highness." Lord Bronze spoke up. "I just received word from a group of deserted Lunar soldiers that wish to speak with you. They said that they have experience in dealing with these so-called assassins you're mentioning about."

"And what makes you think that these deserted Lunar soldiers could help us deal with Twilight and her assassin group?" Majesty asked Lord Bronze with a stern look.

"Because most of these deserters were former LR commandoes!" Lord Bronze said as he answered Majesty's question.

"Very well." Majesty acknowledged Lord Bronze's request. "Every pony and creature, the meeting is now over. You are all dismissed."





Meanwhile, back at the Lunar Republic HQ, Twilight and her team are able to successfully bring Applejack into the infirmary. During her recovery, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie were all relieved to see their farm pony friend again, while hugging Applejack. For Crimson Cross, Starlight Glimmer was able to drag him to another room where he will be interrogated by Princess Luna and Discord. The moment Crimson woke up, he finds himself strapped tightly to a metal chair in a very dark room, wrapped around in chains and duct tape. When the door in front of Crimson opened, Princess Luna appeared before him with Discord following behind her. Princess Luna decided to sit down in front of Crimson, leaning forward on a table between them. As for Discord, he walked right behind Crimson to make sure he doesn't try anything stupid in front of Luna. 

"So Crimson Cross, Twilight Sparkle told me that you were carrying an anti-magic enchanted tower shield on your back." Luna explained to the bulky earth pony. "May I ask, who exactly made this powerfully, forged device?"

"I don't know shit, Luna." Crimson said smiling in a lying tone of voice. "I swear."

"Don't test my patience, young man." Luna snarled. "If Twilight and her friends keep facing enemy ponies that are using similar equipment as this, they won't be able to stand a chance against such a feat."

"So what?! It serves them right." Crimson protested not want to spill out the beans. "And you can't really get anything from me by giving a taste of my own medicine, would you, Luna?"

"We'll see about that, you stubborn moron." Luna hissed as she gave Discord a nod.

Before Crimson could realize what is going on, Discord attached 2 metal pincers to the metal chair Crimson is sitting on and the other 2 metal pincers on a live electrical wire. Without warning, as soon as Discord flipped the switch on, Crimson started experiencing an electrical jolt crawling inside his skin, follow by a great deal of pain coming from inside his body. The brown earth pony started screaming in pain for 30 seconds, until Discord turned the switch off. During the interrogation, Twilight, the mane 4, Starlight, and Trixie all watched as they see Crimson get tortured on a makeshift electrical chair from a nearby window.

"Now listen Mr. Cross, I may not enjoy hurting ponies during the time I was spreading chaos magic everywhere." Discord said as he stood next to Lasher. "However, because of how much pain you gave to most of my friends, including Fluttershy, I will have no choice but to make you pay the price for your hurtful actions."

"I want you to stay focus and answer my question." Luna ordered Crimson in a royal canterlot voice. "ARE YOU FOCUSED, YET??!!"

Unwilling to say another word to Princess Luna, Crimson spit on her face before she wiped it off with her hoof. She ordered Discord to turn on the power again, giving Crimson another painful jolt in his body. Despite Crimson's screaming, everyone in the area felt unfazed by the noise he is making.

"Scream all you want, Crimson. No pony is going to hear you since these walls are completely soundproof." Luna taunted the tortured earth pony. "In fact, we could do this all day long until you tell us about that anti-magic tower shield or until we ran out of power, it's your choice."

After several attempts of getting jolt by the electricity in his body, Crimson started to faint when all of a sudden, he was able to answer Luna's question.

"Wait, Luna. They made that shield for me at a Research Prison Facility after Unicornia took over Manehattan." Crimson finally explained to Luna. "During the civil war, they built that Facility above the water in the middle of the city. There, they test out their experimental weaponry and equipment, mostly on prisoners that we captured during the war. Many rioters attempted to destroy that facility after the war. However, they all failed. As a result, every pony that was arrested was sent there immediately. You'll never find a way into that place. It's heavily guarded and the only way to get there is by boat. If you think you can do it, well good luck with that. HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!"

"A Research Prison Facility in Manehattan, huh?" Luna said to herself. "I guess that's enough for me to move on. Discord, lock him up."

Without saying another word, Discord grabbed Crimson Cross and hauled him off to a nearby jail cell on the right of the torturer chamber. At the briefing room, Luna requested the audience of Twilight and her team, along with Rarity. During the time, Twilight and her team went off to rescue Applejack, Rarity went under Luna's LR commando training, after 24 hours, Rarity was able to learn to use a katana, as well as harnessing various ninja skills.

"Okay, girls. I received word from one of my foal spies that there will be a tour at the Research Prison Facility in 3 days from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm." Luna announced to Twilight and her team. "You will all have to disguise yourselves as tourists before you blend in with the crowd. Before the end of the tour, sneak away from the crowd, find a safe place to hide, and wait until nightfall. The prison security there will become less tight during that time, unless caught. While you're all at it, find a way to rig the generator with explosives, help free the prisoners there, and escort them to the prison docks. A battleship commandeered by Agent Sweetie Drops' men will be waiting for you there but don't take too long. If they noticed that a prison break is occurring, you'll all have 2 hours to exfiltrate the area before it becomes surrounded by Unicornian Battleships. And watch out for any experimental soldiers in the facility. There's no telling what kind of surprises will be waiting for you there. If any of you ran into them during the escape, they won't go down that easily. So, keep attacking them until you find their weak spots. As soon as you're all out of the Prison Facility, blow it up. Any questions?"

"Not at all." Twilight said to Princess Luna.

"Good. Then move out, we have no time to lose." Luna ordered Twilight and her team.





Meanwhile, at the Research Prison Facility in Manehattan, Professor Felhand appeared at the docks while being escorted by three prison guards. Felhand was a Male Green Unicorn who is wearing glasses and has a yellow mane and tail. He was wearing a white lab coat on his body, which displays a badge the says his name, and bears the cutie mark of a yellow claw. He marched straight into the Facility, along with his escorts. The Facility was like a huge Coliseum, with lots of windows all over the building. Above the building, there were watch towers equipped with floodlights. Around the and inside the area, guard squads of 5 to 10 patrol the facility in a 24/7 shift. At the main entrance, there was a huge double steel doors that were 50ft tall. At the checkpoint, near the entrance, Professor Felhand shows his badge to the security there before they opened the doors that lead to the Facility. When he went inside, he was greeted by Eagle Eye at the reception desk, who happens to be the Head Warden of the Research Prison Facility. Eagle Eye was also a unicorn with a dark blue fur coat and a white mane, and is bearing the cutie mark of a white crosshair. He was wearing a Black Beret on top of his head and a black prison warden uniform on his body. Eagle Eye was carrying a spear and a X5 scoped sniper rifle strapped to his back.
"Welcome back to the Facility, Professor." Eagle Eye spoke to Felhand, while working on his paper work at his desk. "How did the meeting at Canterlot go?"

"Not too bad, Eagle Eye." Felhand responded to the Head Warden. "Queen Majesty is requesting us to send in our experimental soldiers to reinforce the garrisons at her castle as soon as they're ready."

"I understand, Professor." The Head Warden said. "I heard about the news of how a resurrected Princess Twilight and her assassin group struck at Majesty's castle while she was way for a while. But no matter, it's a good thing we brought back one of her best personal guards from the dead as well, thanks to one of your rejuvenating drugs. As soon as we have him deployed, she won't keep her guard up anymore."

"I know where you're getting at, Eagle." The Professor laughed. "You should see the look on his face when he found out where he was back then, it was priceless. He maybe trying to resist us earlier, but I was able to implant one of my latest inventions onto his chest while he was still under sedation. In fact, I was just about to have him go for a test drive as my one and only "Experimental Test Subject X."

"I can't wait to see this for myself." Eagle Eye laughed. 

After their conversation, Eagle Eye and Professor Felhand went down to the testing chamber. The testing chamber was on the 5th floor in the facility. Overall, about 20 floors were built inside the Prison Facility. When Eagle Eye and Felhand reached the testing chamber, they see 10 prisoners trapped in the room. In the Testing Chamber, there were glass doors on all sides of the room, surveillance cameras poised at the ceiling, metal grates all over the floor, and 4 huge shatter-proof windows on all sides. Eagle and Felhand sat by outside the testing chamber from one of the windows, while one of the scientists there is waiting for Felhand's orders.

"Professor Felhand, Experimental Test Subject X is ready to proceed for demonstration." One of the scientists said while standing next to a control panel. "We're requesting permission to unleash the test subject."

"Alright, then." Felhand acknowledged the scientist's request. "Begin the test drive."

Not a moment too soon, the scientist press one of the buttons on the control panel, which unlocked one of the glass doors in the testing chamber. The moment the test subject came out, the prisoners freak out the moment they saw him approach them in a vicious, belligerent stance. 

"Subject X, get rid of those prisoners." Felhand ordered the test subject while speaking through the microphone.

Without hesitation, the test subject charged at the prisoners with all his might. Before any pony could see what was going on, the test subject quickly mauled them to death with his lance. Just as the last prisoner was about to run for his life, while banging on the door that leads to the exit, he felt his body impaled with one of the test subject's javelins before succumbing to his wounds. As the prisoner falls to the ground, he left behind a bloody smear on the exit door.

"Very impressive, Felhand." Eagle Eye congratulating the professor. "If Princess Twilight Sparkle ever shows up here, you know what you have to do in order to put her down."

"Understood, sir." Felhand acknowledged Eagle Eye's praise as he saluted him before the Head Warden left the Testing Chambers.

"Also, don't forget to deploy your experimental soldiers in the facility as well, if you see Twilight in your sights." Eagle Eye ordered Felhand.

"I'll keep that in mind, sir." Felhand acknowledge the Head Warden's orders.





At Manehattan, two days before the tour, Twilight and her team members decided to stay at a nearby hotel, in which is a couple of blocks away from the Research Prison Facility. Twilight decided to go over the plan before proceeding to move forward with their 3rd mission. 

"Okay, guys. At one hour before the tour, we have to store all of our weapons and equipment, except for our small trench knifes, inside a crate in the alleyway behind this hotel." Twilight announced to the group. "One of the agents from Sweetie Drop's group will come by, pick up the crate, and smuggle it to the prison's armory, disguised at one of the prison guards residing there. Rarity, tomorrow at morning, you help me find buy some dresses at a nearby boutique and try not to get too carried away with fashions this time. We just need them temporary to blend in with the other group of tourists at the Prison Facility. Remember girls, the northern docks will be where they will start their tour at. The tickets will cost 10 bits each, so we need to at least save 50 bits before going on the tour. If any of you are going to hang out at the city, don't forget to meet me at the northern docks before 5:00 pm at the day of the tour. We can't make any foolish mistakes during this mission, otherwise it'll only end in total disaster. As soon as we sneak away from the crowd, we head down to the armory to gear up for the prison raid. After that, I explain the second part of our plan. Are we clear?"

"Understood." All of the unicorns responded in a positive tone.

"Don't worry, Twilight." Starlight added. "I'll make sure Trixie doesn't blow our cover.

"What do you mean by that??" Trixie snapped. "Do you guys still think that I can't be trusted yet??"

"QUIET, TRIXIE!!!" Every pony shouted at the light-blue unicorn.

"I feel unappreciated!!!" Trixie pouted to herself.





Inside the Research Prison Facility, Rainbow Dash and Spike, who were still locked up inside their jail cells, were both hearing all of those horrible noises of ponies being tortured and mutilated from the Testing Chamber. As the blood-curdling screams becomes intense every hour, the pegasus and the teenage dragon are getting really scared.

"Rainbow, what do you think is going to happen to us??" Spike cowered in the corner of his jail cell.

"I don't even what to know!!" Rainbow Dash shrieked. "Whatever it is, I don't like the sound of it."

"We'll, what you're hearing right now is ponies being tortured by Professor Felhand's experimental creations." One of the prisoners said from one of the jail cells.

"Wait, you don't mean...." Rainbow Dash said in a horrified tone of voice.

"Yes, my dear." The prisoner said. "This isn't just a prison, it's also a research testing facility. Those wretched Unicornians built this place so that they can test out their experimental weapons before they send them out to reinforce Queen Majesty's Army."

"Who are you, telling us all of this?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"It's seems like you forgot about me already." The prisoner spoke to Rainbow Dash. "I guess it was because of the torturing that I took that made me unrecognizable to my one and only pegasus marefriend. You probably don't remember do you? We used to be in the Wonderbolts together, you and I."

After going over what the prisoner said just now, Rainbow Dash gave herself some time before realizing who it was. Her eyes widen with shock because she remembered that the prisoner used to be a former member of the Wonderbolts, alongside with her.

"S-SOARIN?? I-Is that you??!!" Rainbow Dash asked the prisoner as tears started coming out of her eyes.

"Yes, it's me darling." The prisoner spoke as he came out of the shadows inside in cell. 

As Soarin revealed himself, his body was covered up with severe bruises, burn marks, and dried bloodstains after endless hours of torture.

"Oh my Faust!!!" Rainbow Dash cried, letting tears go come out of her eyes. "Soarin, w-what did they do to you??"

"I don't want to talk about it." Soarin said in a forlorn voice. "It's just too horrible to bear. I was with Agent Sweetie Drops leading to mob to attack this place, but the defenses in this facility were too strong. We were able to fall back. However, I could not catch up with Sweetie Drops' men because they shot my wings while I was trying to fly out of here. The next thing I knew, I fell from the sky and hit the ground rock bottom before they arrested me and brought me here."

"MUWHA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!" Eagle Eye laughed as he appeared outside of the jail cell, gloating Soarin and Rainbow Dash. "Isn't this precious: A tearful reunion between two Pegasus lovebirds. Too bad none of you will be ever see the light of day ever again."

"YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET AWAY WITH THIS, EAGLE EYE!!!!" Rainbow Dash growled. "It's bad enough that you dragged me and Spike down to his hellhole during the time you were one of Majesty's guards."

"Oh, yeah?!" Eagle Eye laughed. "We'll who's going to stop me now, Rainbow Dash?? And who's going to save your sorry little flank, huh?? Well, I did heard that your precious Princess Twilight Sparkle came back from the dead and has already started wreaking havoc upon Equestria again, with the aid of a group of assassins. 

"Twilight's alive???" Rainbow Dash asked, with eyes widen.

"Yeah well, it won't matter because if she and her team ever show up here, we'll be ready for them." Eagle Eye smirked before he left the jail floor, cackling to himself.

"I-I don't believe what I'm hearing. I could've sworn I thought my mother was dead." Spike said to himself.

"Well, if it's true for what Eagle Eye just said, then let's just pray that Twilight would find us before he finds her first." Rainbow Dash said to Spike.





Meanwhile, outside of the Prison Facility, Twilight and her group are able to rendezvous at the northern docks 30 minutes before the tour starts. After they discarded all of their weapons, equipment, and their LR Commando uniforms, they disguised themselves as tourists. All five unicorns are wearing normal civilian clothing, big hats, and sunglasses to cover up their faces and their cutie marks. At the start of the tour, Twilight and her group were able to stick together, along with the rest of the crowd before getting their tickets and proceeded into the ferry.

"Alright girls, just go with the flow, stick together, and don't make any scenes." Twilight ordered to rest of her team as they got closer to the ferry.

When the ferry reached the docks at 5:50 pm, the crowd went on board as they gave their tickets to the checkpoint. After Twilight and her disguised team went on board the ferry, they went up on deck to see the view before the ferry departured from the dock. At 6:10 pm, the ferry reached the docks near the Prison Research Facility. There, Professor Felhand directed the crowd of tourists to the 1st level of the facility where he did his part as a tour guide.

"This is the 1st level in which is our main entrance to the facility; it's where we bring our prisoners to the front desk and have them frisked before we took them to the jail area, which is in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors of the facility." Professor Felhand announced to the tourists, unaware that Twilight and her group are hiding amongst them. "At the 5th floor, we conduct our tests when we let loose our experiments upon the prisoners who were sent to death row."

When Felhand lead the tourists to the 5th floor, he let them see the living experiments unleash hell upon the helpless prisoners in various testing chambers. Twilight and her friends were all horrified at seeing such bloody mayhem and horror occur inside the testing chambers. Then again, Twilight and her team did their best not to draw any attention to the tourists or to Professor Felhand, while they wrote down everything that Felhand said during the tour in their notebooks.

"At the 6th floor, we develop our latest drugs, our latest technological weapons, and our experimental creations." Felhand continued with the tour around the Facility. "Though, the 6th floor is off limits to all unauthorized personnel, the same goes for the 7th Floor, which is the armory, and the 8th floor, which is where we test our latest drugs at."

When the tourists reached the 9th floor, they see the generators giving out power throughout the entire facility. On the 10th floor, there was the prison guard barracks, security surveillance room, the mess hall, and the cafeteria. As the tour went on from the 11th to the 20th and final floor, they see all of the Professor's creations inside their cells with such shock and awe.

"As you can see, every pony. After we finished building our experimental creations, we send them up to the 11th to 20th floors in this facility. They may look scary and violent but they will not attack any pony unless ordered otherwise." Professor Felhand said to the group of tourists. "As of today, we have just finished creating about 500 Terminator ponies, Cyborg Ponies, Mechanical Hounds, and Sentinel Ponies. However, I was recently ordered by the Queen of Unicornia to send in all of these experimental soldiers to her garrison at Canterlot immediately. So, if any of you wish to see them, it will be the last thing to do here before they leave the facility. As a matter of fact, the tour is coming to a close, so if any pony wishes to use the bathroom, now will be the time."

As some of the tourists went to their bathroom breaks, Twilight and her group went in last, which is also part of their plan. In the Mare's restroom, Twilight and her team were able to unlock the grate in one of the stalls. One by one, they went through the ventilation shaft that leads to the armory in the 7th floor, with the last member of Twilight's group sealing back up the grate behind them. After they came out of the ventilation shaft, they went to a nearby room in the armory, where they found their weapons crate standing in the middle of the area. As soon as they geared up to proceed with their mission, Twilight announces their second part of the plan to the LR commando team.

"Alright guys, this is where we finally come in. It'll be nighttime in 30 minutes after 7:00 pm." Twilight said as she explained the second part of their plan. "Rarity, you head down to the security surveillance room in the 10th floor, kill every guard pony there in silence, and disable all security systems and unlock all of the jail cells in all 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors. Starlight and Trixie, you both head down to the jail area, find a hiding spot there, and wait until Rarity disables the security systems. There will be a blackout when all security systems are shut down. However, their backup generator will immediately start running in 45 minutes. So Rarity, during the blackout, you head downstairs to the meet up with Trixie and Starlight while helping free the prisoners. You three will all have about 45 minutes to free as much prisoners as you can before heading down to the prison docks with them and kill any prison guards that get too close to the escaped convicts. Sunset Shimmer, you follow me down to the generator room in the 9th floor and help me plant the C4 explosive charges there, they'll be rigged by a remote detonator. When we're done with that, we both meet up with Rarity, Trixie, and Starlight while continuing to escort the prisoners out of here. Whatever you do, do not activate the detonator until we're all outside of the facility, along with most of the prisoners onboard Sweetie Drops' ship. Take these night vision googles; they'll help you see everything through the blackout. And remember, as soon as the power goes back online, get ready to fight because the moment they'll see us, they'll unleash their experimental creations from the floors 11 to 20. During at time, we are to hold them off at our position at the 1st floor. Don't forget, most of these prisoners used to be soldiers that still served in the  Equestrian Army, so have them armed and ready because this is going to a big fight of their lives."

After Twilight Sparkle announced the second part of the plan to the rest of the group, they all picked up their night vision googles from their weapon crate before moving on. Starlight and Trixie opened up one of the weapon cabinets in the armory, grabbed as many weapons as they can, and stuff them inside 3 duffle bags before they moved out. Twilight and all of her team members are now wearing black assassin jumpsuits to adapt into the night before they head out. 

After they left the armory, Twilight and Sunset headed took the elevators to the 9th floor, Rarity pulled out a grappling launcher and fired it into a sturdy pipeline above the ceiling and hoisted herself up to balcony of  the 8th floor, and Starlight and Trixie took the stairs down to the 4th floor. When Twilight and Sunset reached the 9th floor, they were almost greeted by on off-duty prison guard. However, before the guard could draw out his nightstick, Twilight charged at him and repeatedly stabbed him in the chest with an orichalcum dagger 7 times, while holding his mouth with her other hoof, and slash at his throat with full force, making him succumb to his wounds, collapsing into a bloody heap. After Sunset hid the body, she and Twilight head down to the generator room where they spot one guard carrying a bolt rifle while patrolling on the balcony and two guards were sleeping in the lounge room across from their ground position. Sunset took out her silent musket rifle and shot at the guard above them, making his brain explode into a bloody mess before he fell off the balcony. When Twilight entered the lounge room, she snuck up to one of the guards, grabbed him by the neck, and made a loud crack, killing him instantly. Before the second guard could wake up to see what was going on, Twilight hurled her dagger at him, piercing his neck while blood was gushing from it. Not a moment too soon, the second guard collapsed onto his stomach before succumbing to his fatal wounds. Twilight and Sunset hid inside the lounge room, not wanting to get caught by the surveillance cameras in the generator room. 

For Rarity, after she hoisted herself up to the 8th floor's balcony, she disengage from the rope of her grappling launcher and put it away into her jumpsuit. After that, Rarity  pulled out a set of suction cups and attached them to her hooves. She jumped onto a huge pipeline and climbed onto the ceiling, like a spider crawling up to its web. Rarity went up to one of the ceiling vents and teleported herself into the ventilation shaft above her. As she went through the ventilation shaft, she was able to reach the 9th level but not before she spotted 2 prison guards patrolling the corridors through one of the vents, right above where she hiding at. She stayed still and hold her breath, not wanting to draw any attention. After they passed through her concealed position and out of sight, Rarity used her magic to quietly unscrew the vent before slowly lifting herself up. When she got out of the shaft, she screw back up the vent before proceeding to the security surveillance room. 

As for Starlight and Trixie, they spot 2 guards standing below them in the stairs leading to the 4th floor. Both of the unicorns drew out their trench knifes, jumped off the rails, and simultaneously pounced on both guards as they landed their faces onto the floor. Before the guards could react, Trixie and Starlight stabbed them both in the head with their daggers. As they left the stairs, Trixie spotted Rainbow Dash, Spike, and Soarin down below at the 3rd floor, sulking in their separate jail cells. She spots nearby guard on the balcony of the 3rd floor patrolling the area near the two pegasus and the teenage dragon. Trixie, pulls out a small crossbow from her right hoof and aimed it at the guard. Before the guard could see what was coming, he felt a powerful crossbow bolt piercing his skull before he collapsed on the floor. As Trixie and Starlight went down to the 3rd level, they hid into the shadows, away from the surveillance camera positioned at the west side of the jail area. 

Meanwhile, Rarity finally found the security surveillance room across the prison guard barracks. When she looked inside the security room through a door window, she spotted one prison guard watching over the surveillance cameras through a set of TVs while sitting a few feet away. As she quietly went into the room, Rarity drew out a pocket knife and slit the guard's throat in a heart beat. After the guard collapse dead on his chair, Rarity used her magic to open up the panel underneath the security control panel and used a cutting tool to dissect all of the wires, forcing every TV to shut off immediately. After that, Rarity used her hoof to smash the security master switch, disabling all of the electronics and surveillance throughout the prison, causing a massive blackout. Professor Felhand and Eagle Eye were both drinking coffee in the lounge room at the 6th floor when the massive blackout occurred.

"HEY!! WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO THE POWER???" Felhand said as he freaked out, spilling the rest of his coffee onto the floor.

"Don't worry, professor." Eagle Eye said to Felhand in a sympathized tone. "We still have our emergency backup generators up in the 7th floor. They'll startup in 45 minutes. Until then, we'll do a clean sweep over the area."

During the blackout, Rainbow Dash, Spike, and Soarin started freaking out not being able to see what is going on right now. Before they could do anything, the prison door suddenly flew wide open letting most of the prisoners out.

"WHAT IN CELESTIA???" Rainbow Dash shrieked very loud. "WHO TURNED OFF THE POWER??"

"Hello, Rainbow Dash. Long time, no see." Starlight Glimmer appeared in front of the shocked pegasus.

"Starlight!! Trixie!! When did you guys get here?!" Spike asked in a surprise tone of voice.

"It's a long story, Spike." Trixie said to the little dragon. "Right now we need help getting as may prisoners out of here as soon as possible."

"Don't forget about me guys!!" Soarin said to the unicorns as he walked out of his jail cell.

As soon as Trixie and Starlight escorted Soarin, Rainbow, and Spike to the 1st floor, they also saw most of the escaped prisoners there attacking the prison guards. 

"Okay, guys. Don't you want to avenge your fallen royal sisters of Equestria?!" Trixie asked to the mob of prisoners.

"YEAH!!!!" Most of the former royal guard-turned inmates said.

"Then be my guest." Trixie said as she took out the duffle bags and dumped a mountain full of weapons in front of the prisoners. "Go give e'm hell boys!!!"

As soon as most of the prisoners, including Spike, Soarin, and Rainbow Dash armed themselves, they started rampaging through the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors as they fought their way to the 1st floor and to prison docks. At the docks, a battleship dropped anchor and started loading up the prisoners for an immediate departure. During the prison riot, Trixie and Starlight put on their night vision googles before they joined in the fight. Trixie pulled out a blunderbuss with her magic and started shooting at the prison guards at point blank range. When one of the guards tried to attack Starlight with a nightstick, she dodged out of the way, grabbed the guard by the arm with her hoof and threw him to a nearby wall, flipping him upside down. As two other guards aimed their bolt-rifles at Starlight, she used her magic to lift up a riot shield and hurled it at the guards. When they got slammed by that hurling riot shield, they lost their aims and got pummeled to the ground by Starlight's shockwave spell.

"Sir!!! There is a prison outbreak occurring in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th levels." One of the guards shouted on the portable radio. "We need help, they're trying to escape!!!"

"I guess I have to get down there and help deal with this outbreak too." Eagle Eye said to himself as he geared up. "Felhand, as soon as the power goes back on, unleash all of our remaining creations and give them the order to attack."

"Understood, sir." Professor Felhand acknowledge before Eagle Eye disappeared along with a group of 10 armed prison guards. 

Meanwhile, during the prison riot, Sunset Shimmer finally finished setting up the C4 explosives while Twilight was able to cover her, hacking away any guards that entered the generator room with her halberd in the darkness. As soon as Sunset was done with the explosive charges, the power went back on, which also means that both Twilight and Sunset need to meet up with their other comrades before they get caught up in this endless fight.

"Oh Shit!! Sunset, we have to leave now!!!" Twilight shouted at the orange unicorn. "They already got the power back on!!!"

"I'm on it!!!" Sunset Shimmered replied as she and Twilight made a run to the other side of the generator room. After they left, the purple alicorn and orange unicorn went down the staircase leading to the jail floor.

"Follow me." One of the Prison Guards said as they took another route down to the jail floor.

"Professor Felhand, it's Twilight and her group!!!" One of the guards said on the radio. "There in the facility trying to get the prisoners out."

"Unleash the experimental creations. Leave none alive." Professor Felhand ordered as he made his way to his airship at the top of the facility. "And Head Warden, take care of them too!!!"

"Understood, Felhand." Eagle Eye responded to the professor through the radio. "It's been an honor working with you, Professor."

As Twilight and Sunset made their way to the jail floor, they were greeted by a squad of Terminator Ponies. Just in an instant, they started opening fire with their mounted Chainguns. However, Twilight and Sunset teleported away from their line of fire. Twilight reappeared flying in the air as she launched herself at the terminators while holding her halberd with her hooves. She was zeroing into the terminators like a torpedo. Before they had a chance to react, Twilight flew right past them at a very fast maneuver only to have all of the terminators get beheaded before they all exploded behind the alicorn.
As for Sunset Shimmer, she used her magic to summon a triple barreled laser rifle and started shooting at the terminators, but despite her best efforts, the android ponies keep coming closer. 

"Sunset, aim for the head!!!" Twilight ordered as she used her halberd to chop off the heads of three more terminator ponies.

Without giving it a second thought, Sunset aimed her laser rifle at the terminators in the head make them explode before they fell to the ground. Twilight shoved her halberd at a nearby Prison guard's face, making him fall off the balcony, and stabbed the second guard in the stomach, lifted him up high, and slammed him into another terminator pony, crushing both of them before causing another small explosion. Meanwhile, at the 1st floor, the fight between Trixie, Starlight, Spike, Rainbow Dash, Soarin, and the rest of the escaping inmates continue but more intense and gruesome. Prison Guards, Terminator Ponies and Cyborg Ponies started coming out of the elevators and started shooting at the inmates with everything they've got. The inmates who were fighting back were fleeing behind cover unable to return fire with their bolt-rifles. Trixie unleashed an inferno spell that spewed out a raging fire, like flamethrower, at the Cyborgs and Terminators. The androids got caught on fire by Trixie's spell and went down in less than 10 seconds. Spike was using a bolt rifle that he grabbed from one of the dead prison guards and started shooting at the androids. Despite being shot at by Spike, the androids weren't getting taken down that easily.

"Damn, these guys are tough!!!" Spike snarled as he sees some of them move forward, despite how damaged they are.

"Just keep shooting at them, Spike." Starlight told the little dragon.

"Hang in there, Spikey-Wikey." Rarity called out as she dropped from the ceiling and unsheathed her ninja sword. Her sword happens to be a 15 inch Katana that was forged for her by Princess Luna herself during Rarity's training in the Lunar Republic.

"RARITY, YOU'RE HERE!!!" Spike cried out in a happy tone.

"It's good to see you again, Spikey-Wikey." Rarity said to the little dragon in a happy tone of voice. "Well, don't hold back anymore darling. We've got a mission to accomplish here."

"Understood, my dear." Spike said as he continued firing upon the android ponies with his bolt-rifle.

During the shootout, Starlight was hacking away every Prison guard and android with her double bladed ax. A Prison guard with a nightclubs and riot shield came up to Starlight and tried to shove her with his shield. However, Starlight dodged the guard's riot shield and performed an execution move that chopped the guard's head off, followed by a squirting fountain of blood coming out of the guard's body. Several other Cyborg ponies tried to close in Starlight too but just with one swing of her ax, they all had their heads chopped off before they all exploded. Despite the fact that both pegasus were unable to fly due to their injured wings, Rainbow and Soarin were able to take down most of the prison guards with their nightclubs and riot shields. As for Rarity, she made a lot of fast quick draws that cut down most of the android ponies in two pieces before they exploded. 

"Uh, guys!!! Did you hear that?" Spike said as he heard a mechanical growl coming from the windows. 

"I think I do, Spike!!!" Trixie said in a frightened tone. "What is that horrible noise??"

"HEH! HEH! HEH!" One of the prison guards cackled. "Allow us to inform you that a pack of our mechanical hounds have started appearing in the facility; and they're most likely coming after you!!!"

Upon hearing what the guard just said, Rarity, Spike, Trixie, Starlight, Rainbow Dash, and Soarin all gasped in horror.

"Please, say that isn't so!!!" Trixie said in a scared tone of voice.

"Well, it's nice knowing you all, you fuck faces!!!" The Prison guard laughed.

Suddenly, a loud crash occurred from one of the windows above the 1st floor. A mechanical hound jumped through the window and started coming towards the group in a hostile stance. It had glowing red eyes staring at the three unicorns, the two pegasus, and the dragon with an intent to kill. Several more mechanical hounds crashed through the other windows getting ready to pounce onto the group.





Meanwhile, back at the jail floor, Twilight used her magic shield to defect the plasma fire from the Cyborg Ponies and the Sentinel Ponies. As they closed in Twilight's position, she swung her halberd high above her head and whacked every cyborg and sentinel on the head, making them fall down and exploded upon death. For Sunset Shimmer, after she ran out of ammo for her triple barreled rifle, she tossed it away and drew out a plasma whip with her magic. After making each whiplash, she was able to take down the Sentinel Ponies that got too close to her when they drew out their plasma hand blades. As the unicorn and alicorn fought their way to the 2nd floor, they find themselves in the middle of the jail area. However, the androids and the Prison guards stopped following them for some reason. 

"They stopped following us. Is it over Twilight?!" Sunset asked, not being able to understand what's going on.

"No, Sunset." Twilight responded in a alarm tone. "I think they're just getting started."

"My plan, exactly Twilight Sparkle!!" Eagle Eye appeared at the balcony above her, while hold his rifle with his magic. "I did plan to come here and finish you both off myself. But first, let's see if you could handle your ex-coltfriend before we get this over with, shall we?"

Twilight did not understand what was Eagle talking about. She was already told by Discord that her coltfriend committed suicide after learning of her death. 

"I don't know what the hell are you talking about, Eagle Eye!!!" Twilight protested. "My coltfriend was dead because of you and those idiots."

Despite Twilight's protest, Eagle Eye started laughing his head off before he continued with his speech.

"Well if that's true, then who is that?!" Eagle Eye asked as he pointed his hoof at the direction behind Twilight.

When Twilight turned around, she sees familiar male pegasus emerged from the shadows. Her eyes widen as she noticed that the pegasus had an orange body with the blue mane and bears the cutie mark of a blue shield with a lighting bolt in the middle. Unfortunately, the pegasus isn't wearing his yellow royal guard armor anymore. Instead, Twilight saw that there is some unknown device latched onto his chest. What's worse, instead of carrying his spear around, he has a huge steel lance on his right hoof, a steel kite shield on his left hoof, and a quiver of javelins mounted on his back.

"What the?? H-How is this possible????" Sunset Shimmer said to herself in a surprised tone of voice.

"N-No way!!! T-That can't be!!!" Twilight Sparkle muttered to herself under a state of shock. "FLASH SENTRY????"
