  "What do you mean cornered?!" a Brown cloaked pony asked on of his fellow BlackCloaks. "Well, it appears as if Trail Blazer is back sir, one of our scouts saw him before fleeing to tell us, he also saw the attack." the BlackCloak answered. "Well I will see to it that he is exe-" he started to say before a whirring and a boom rang through the air. The Brown cloak slumped to the ground, blue flames engulfing his cloak. "Shit, defend!" the answering pony commanded. A bang rang through the air, the pony toppled over. For a minute all was silent until a blue flame shot through the air with a whiz, and exploded on a defending pony. "What the he-" another said before one hit him. They all looked to the sky and saw a pegasus soaring the air , blue flames in hooves. "Shit!" they all yelled in unison as a large orb of blue fire flew towards them. It stopped midair, then blew up. The smoke was a deep purple, they were unable too see. As the smoke cleared, a group of WhiteCloaks had rifles poised at them. "Hey, you were right, these are better than bows." said the pegasus that had destroyed this group's officer. "Steady your rifles." he continued. "Bring in the barrels." he barked. A group of ponies rolled in barrels. "That is good." he said as a pony laid out a trail of gunpowder. "This was easy, Now goodbye." he said, toying with them before he flicked a blue flame at the trail, and all the ponies got out of distance. That night, all awoke as a blue flame and a boom erupted at the newly cleaned fountain. "Sco keep the guns." was the last thing the pegasus said Before flying to a tavern in Ponyville.

"To Trail Blazer!" Sco said, putting a mug of alcohol in the air as a toast. The WhiteCloaks responded with a "Hell yeah!". "Alright, alright guys." was his humble response. "Speech, speech, speech, speech!" they all cheered, the drinks already taking affect. "Uh, okay. Well I umm..." he said, trying to make a speech. Instead he shot a blue flame at a stack of bottles, making them light up. About an hour later, most of the WhiteCloaks had passed out. Spitfire's head was in Soarin's lap, both of them were passed out. Spike was breathing fire, trying to impress a drunk Rarity, who was eyeing a bar stool with lust. Twiglight was staring at her drink, she hadn't even finished her first mug. Trail Blazer was sparring with Big Mac outside. A black chariot pulled up, carrying a few BlackCloaks with axes. "Big Mac, we have a problem." Trail said. "Eeyup." was Big Mac's response. The two were only buzzed. Trail Blazer's fireball missed. "Fuck, even buzzed I suck." he said before the BlackCloaks headed for them. "How do you like sudden attacks?" one of them said, swinging his axe and misssing. "I think it is funny, you have no chance." was Trail's response. Another fireball, another miss, but it hit the chariot, exploding with a satisfying boom. the to BlackCloaks turned to see their chariot on fire. Big Mac kicked on of the axemen, sending his axe in front of him, and then the BlackCoak onto the axe. "Could you do that sober?" Trail asked. "Nope." was the answer. The other guard took a pear sized item from his belt. He pulled a pin and threw it. Trail Blazer shoved Big Mac into the tavern. about a second later, an explosion happened. "What... the fuck... was that?" Trail Blazer said, panting. "Any Ideas?" he asked. "Nope" was the response he got. After a few minutes Twiglight answered "I think it is from the digsite."  holding up a book. It was an Equestrain history book. In the picture it showed a building in a crater. "And the BlackCloaks own it?" Trail Blazer asked. "Well, I know where we are going." he said, as he put down money for the drinks.

"Are you fucking insane?!" Fluttershy said, after Trail revealed his plans. "Maybe." was the response "So you are going into a building, heavily guarded, and just expect them to hand it over?" she stammered. "Pretty much." Trail said, already going for the door.

"WhiteCloaks, Onwards!" Trail Blazer yelled as they charged over the hill. The BlackCloaks didn't even have time for an alarm. "Well, well, well If it isn't my favorite little WhiteCloak." said a Red cloaked Pegasus overhead, looking at Trail. "And who the fuck would I be speaking to?" Trail said. "Oh I guess that you don't remember me, pity." the red cloak said, raising a metal tube from the roof. "What the fuck? he said before the tube smoked and sent something towards him. Time seemed to slow for Trail Blazer saw his death coming, but then he realized it actually had, the Whitecloaks scattered at regular speed. A unicorn in an Ash colored cloak walked up to Trail. "Yeah, might want to move." it stated, raising a blue hoof. "Okay." he said, walking out of the way. Time seemed to resume to normal. "By the way, name's Shift." the grey cloak said. "Yeah, thanks." was Trail's only reply before creating a firball to knock a hole in a wall. "WhiteCloaks, move out of the way!" he said before hurling the fireball at the wall. The hole showed strange objects. Weapons, those pear shaped objects, a shitload of them, some boats, and chariots without Pulling hookups. "Storm it!" they all yelled in unison. They entered the digsite building. TrailBlazer took out guards around a big armored chariot. He looked inside for anything and accedentally hit a button. Panels lit up, enough light to see a few levers. He pushed one and the chariot lurched forwards. He saw a button that said ; "Fire" he pressed it and a flash lit up the digsite building end ended with a boom, like the pear-shaped objects. "Fuck yeah!" he cheered, as the other WhiteCloaks figured out how to drive them. A BlackCloak army marched over the hill. "Onward!" Trail yelled, as he fired another flying Pear-object at the army, it ended with a satisfying boom and bodies flying, all of their blood in a mist. The rest of the chariots did the same, and that BlackCloak army was defeated at that site. "All of these chariots stay here, we need them to guard." Trail said, driving his home, it was faster than flying.

"A fucking tank?!" Twiglight said, almost seeming unhappy. "It is the most badass thing I have ever seen." Twiglight finished. "Well, I'm going to fuck up some BlackCloaks, wanna come?" Trail asked. Two yesses were heard. One from Twiglight, and one from Fluttershy.
