"Operation: Anaconda sure went sideways," said Purple, "Remember that camp that I was at was a shit hole."
Purple stared at a board in his office.
***
Operation: Anaconda.
Fourteen years ago.
Purple is now Multi Fireteam leader where he oversees and commands Task Force Sentinel, Task Force Shadow, Task Force Trident, and Task Force Hellhounds. He’s a part of Task Force Shadow, a three pony team and the other two in Task Force Shadow are mares and he’s the only stallion.
Purple was sound asleep on an army cot until a pegasus mare came and woke him to tell him that they have to move.
They walked together and saw a few military helicopter gunships fly overhead. Then they boarded.
“Headsets on,” said Dusk “Honey Cake” Stable, “And keep hooves away from the ledges.”
Purple and the mare put the headsets on so they can listen to radio chatter.
“So what is this mission?” asked Honey Cake, “Be nice to know before this helo gets filled with bullets and possibly all die!”
Purple calmly replied, “HVT Extract. It’ll be a cakewalk.”
“You did not say that!” exclaimed Honey Cake, “My ass is not going to get shot down over this shit!”
Honey Cake checked her revolver while flying the helicopter and the other mare made sure her body armor was on tightly to make sure to be prepared for a fight.
“If we get shot down then I’m preparing for a fight!” said Honey Cake, “And if I get shot while on the ground then I get to shoot you for jinxing us Purple! If we survive and get out of it without getting hurt then you owe me a huge dinner!”
Purple replied, “Fair enough.”
They flew for several minutes until they came to a village and came under fire but Honey Cake landed her helicopter. Purple and the mare got out and Purple fired his M14 style rifle and the mare fired her M16 style rifle at the enemy.
The mare didn’t know that the enemies they’re fighting are from Purple’s family well half of his family tried to overthrow Celestia and Luna which got half of Purple’s family banished with the other half staying in Equestria blending in with the other citizens having normal jobs, having foals, and getting married of course a majority of the stallions are sexist, misogynistic, and patriarchal who treat their wives like shit and more or less glorified slaves or servants to stallions.
They moved through the village to a building where their HVT was at. They watched each other’s backs. Of course the HVT was in a safe room that Purple used his magic to rip the reinforced steel door off and when Purple entered the stallion tried to get his revolver.
“Wait wait maybe we can..” said the stallion.
Purple bitch slapped the stallion with the stock of his rifle.
“Hotel 3-1 this is Shadow 1,” said Purple, “We’re heading to primary exfil ASAP. We got the HVT in custody.”
Honey Cake replied (over radio): "Copy that. Heading to the primary exfil site. Be advised the hornet's nest was shaken and got about several hundred foot mobiles and heavy armor. You got about two minutes before they're right above you two! Hotel 3-1 over and out."
Purple carried the HVT on his back. He and the mare went to the exfil site and they got into Honey Cake helicopter and they flew off.
While flying back another helicopter got hit by an RPG round and crashed into Honey Cake helicopter making it spin out of control and crashed upside down.
The three of them were slightly injured with the copilot being dead; they took the HVT back to base due to the three of them having wings with the mare and Dusk "Honey Cake" Stable being Pegasus and Purple's a crossbred Alicorn.
"So how do you feel about Purple?" Asked the unicorn mare in Fireteam Shadow.
Pegasus mare replied, "Purple is fighting his own war and he has no rules. No boundaries. He doesn't flinch at torture, or using unconvential warfare to win. He's only loyal to Equestria and it's flag."
Later that day while out on patrol the Pegasus mare she stepped on a tripwire which blew up and killed her.
***
Present day.
In a hallway in Canterlot Castle.
Why am I still here? Purple thought, Every morning I have my Single action, semi automatic pistol is always pointed at me when I go to sleep and the safety is off and I always keep my wing on it. Even though it's loaded with both .45 auto, +P and .45 Hollow point rounds. Every time I pull the trigger there's a clicking sound even though the magazine is loaded, the safety is off and there's a bullet in the chamber. Guess life wants me to keep suffering but I've lost everything worth living for. Wish my heart would just stop beating!
Purple just kept his eyes looking down in sadness and his facial expression, the tone of his voice and the look in his eyes more or less says that he's given up on life.
Soon Head Guardian Sapphire’s assistant came and told Purple that Head Guardian Sapphire wants a word with him now and he doesn’t have a say in it. He started following Tumble.
***
In Head Guardian Sapphire Rose’s office.
“Thanks Tumble,” said Sapphire, “Sit down Purple.”
Purple replied, “No thanks I would rather stand. So what do you want, Head Guardian?”
“For starters stop acting like you don't care about anything,” said Sapphire, “Also I want you to infiltrate and spy on Phantasia’s army.”
Purple replied, “Sorry Head Guardian that’s a negative. If something bad happens then it’s not my fault because I warned you that something would happen. But the answer is no.”
“You don’t have a choice in this,” said Sapphire, “So you have to or I’ll find somepony on the reserve team to do it. Only reason I’m choosing you is because of your expertise in reconnaissance.”
Purple replied, “Reconnaissance and spying are two different things! Spying is a more prolonged and deliberate activity, while reconnaissance missions are generally rapid and targeted to retrieve specific information. Remember if somepony dies or gets badly hurt then remember that I warned you then something bad would happen.”
***
Later that day.
Purple found out that there are two groups who support Phantasia’s army and Purple decided to infiltrate one.
Alright Purple don’t get angry, Purple thought, Just don’t turn into your alter-ego, just don’t turn just keep your posture.
Soon a stallion approached Purple.
“Glad that you’re with us Prince Purple,” said the stallion, “With you here meaning you also support that mares should be at home, having foals, cooking and cleaning and acting like a servant waiting on their husbands or boyfriends.”
Purple’s eyes went from blue to red meaning he’s now in his alt-state which is Fanatic Purple. Fanatic Purple is the polar opposite to Purple with Fanatic Purple he’ll fight to the death no cowardly retreat! Also he’s motivated with his "inner fire" to keep fighting to the last consequences. Not adding he’s more aggressive and more hostile while in this state.
Purple drew his combat knife and either stabbed or sliced every single stallion in the house and he found the address of the other group. Before he left he soaked kerosene and other flammable liquids everywhere and then he threw a match while walking away letting the house burn down.
Dumb bastards thought I would actualy join a group that wants mares to be more or less slaves to stallions, Purple thought, Not on my fucking death bed I wouldn’t join them not even if one of them made a wish when seeing a shooting star.
***
At night.
Purple was wearing an black battle dress uniform and balaclava mask. He was soon joined by Lieutenant-Colonel Vigorous Orchestria who was wearing the same but with a World War II "lozenge" patch on both forelegs sleeves. Colonel Honey Cake was wearing the same as Purple. They were joined by three Equestrian Army Rangers, four Equestrian MARSOC soldiers, and Purple’s daughter in Stalliongrad sent four Stalliongradian Shadow Strike operatives (their version of the Spetsnaz).
“What’s your play Purple?” asked Lt-Col Vigorous Orchestria.
Purple replied, “Stealth infiltration and elimination. MARSOC and Shadow Strike you two will enter through the front. Me, Honey Cake, and Vigorous Orchestria will go in the back with the Rangers.”
“What is this?” asked Honey Cake, “Team Deathmatch?”
They didn’t think what she said was funny.
They did what they were told but when a few who were badly injured were on the floor in the house.
“Do we take prisoners?” asked Lt-Col Vigorous Orchestria.
Purple replied, “No. Kill all in Phantasia’s army then no pony else would want to join. Better to put this insurgency or what not down for good than let it rebuild over time.”
“Good call,” said Lt-Col Vigorous Orchestria.
Lieutenant-Colonel Orchestria and the other soldiers there just executed the remaining members of Phantasia’s army in the house.
***
The next day.
In a secure location in Canterlot Castle.
“Who are we meeting this time Princess?” asked Head Guardian Sapphire.
Princess Twilight replied, “Lieutenant-Colonel Vigorous Orchestria. Before we enter I gotta say this as a disclaimer. She’s rough around the edges and sometimes she’ll act like she has a stick up her rear end. Of course her family made her that. Also please don’t say anything that’ll make her mad or get pissed. Remember how mad you got when Pinkie visited all of the gates? If she was in your hooves or if Pinkie did that while in the army she would have Pinkie executed for abandoning her position.”
“Okay I won’t say anything to make her mad,” said Sapphire, “But I won’t pretend this is lala land.”
The two entered the room and saw a blue pegasus mare with blue eyes, and dirty blonde hair wearing an olive drab army service uniform. She was making sure her medals were straight.
“What do you want?” asked Lt-Col Vigorous, “Whatever it is, hurry it up I got stuff to do today!”
“A little impatient isn’t she?” asked Sapphire.
The two sat down at a table across from Lieutenant-Colonel Vigorous Orchestria.
"Please state your name for the record," said Princess Twilight.
Lt-Col Vigorous Orchestra replied, "Orchestria, Vigorous, Lieutenant Colonel. Serial number: 372404529 VO. Second Ranger Regiment."
"Purple told me that his adoptive father and biological father served in the Second Ranger Regiment as mechanics." Said Sapphire.
Vigorous Orchestra replied, "Albatross, Bit Counter and Thunderbolt.Albatross is Purple’s biological father, Bit Counter is Purple’s adoptive father and Thunderbolt was Scrumptious father. Two of three are dead Albatross died from Timberwolves along side with his wife Harp, Bit Counter died from cancer and Thunderbolt is still alive and he and his wife are estranged but they’re still married because it’s what their only son would want which is them to stay together and be happy.”
“I have a question,” said Princess Twilight, “Because two homes that were suspicious of holding members of Phantasia’s army were burnt down with everypony in it either shot or stabbed. Did Purple or you did them?”
Vigorous Orchestria replied, “You're damn right we did! He did the one where ponies were stabbed and me and him and other military specops did the other one with bullets and both ended with fire.”
“That’s murder!” said Sapphire, “You two would be sent to a dungeon for that!”
Vigorous Orchestria replied, “Maybe you’d like to join us!”
“I’m sorry?” asked Sapphire.
Vigorous Orchestria replied, “We’re currently under Emergency Equestria Directive EEM-117. I’m sure you’re familiar with the punishment for civilian interference with a Counter-Insurgency Operation!”
“Are you threatening me, Lieutenant-Colonel?” asked Sapphire.
Vigorous Orchestria replied, “No just saying what would happen if you try to interfere with the Equestrian military counter-insurgency operation. You send me and Purple to prison then you’ll join us. But excuse me for taking the gloves off to get my hooves dirty so everypony in Equestria can sleep easier at night. While you’re willing to give a stallion a blowjob and let another one fuck you in the ass but to me, Purple, my Rangers, the Equestrian MARSOC soldiers, their lives matter to me while you two your lives don’t matter.”
“Have you ever tried the ‘Use honey over vinegar’ style?” said Sapphire, “You know what I had enough of this I’m going to go back to work.”
Head Guardian Sapphire Rose got up from the table.
“Sit down and shut the fuck up before I have your ass arrested for interfearing with an military operation!” yelled Vigorous Orchestria, “So sit your ass down or you can be in a prison until end of time!”
Head Guardian Sapphire did because Lieutenant-Colonel Vigorous Orchestria she doesn’t mince words and her voice and the tone of it means she isn’t lying and she doesn’t mince words. Not adding she’s dead serious and doesn’t pull any punches.
“You don’t like me and I sure as hell don’t like you!” said Vigorous Orchestria, “So whatever group that you lead and Purple in it it’s better to keep him off of a leash. Also you can’t fire him from your group-"
"Actually, I can fire him because I'm his Boss," Sapphire replied. At this point she'd had enough of other ponies telling her how to do her job. Purple was the one fucked up on his job and he should face consequences for it. You need a full psychiatric workup. Don’t know how you’re a soldier.”
“You've never been in my family!” said Vigorous Orchestria, “Have you ever seen your family shoot up a little filly fifth birthday party killing everyone including colt and fillies? On your fourteenth birthday have you seen your brother wear a jacket and walk into a mall blowing it sky high killing hundreds almost a thousand ponies to get back at a mare who rejected him for a college dance? Has your family ever killed innocents? Ever used chemical or biological weapons against innocents for no reason but just to kill for the shits and giggles? Judging by your facial expression you were raised in a family that was filled with love and caring. Not me my biological mom, dad, and all my brothers and stepmom were all terrorists who gladly killed others because they loved it. Half of my family is dead and I hope the Devil is raping them in Hell and the other half of my family are in prison.”
“But what you and Purple did was wrong!” said Sapphire.
Vigorous Orchestria replied, “Who sent him on to infiltrate Phantasia’s group? You did. He warned you that something bad would happen but no you told him to do it regardless. So you had him infiltrate a group and look at what happened. You’re responsible as well because Purple told you what would happen so that makes you an accomplice. But you gotta do what you have to do to keep the free world safe from jagoffs like Phantasia!”
“What you and Purple did,” said Sapphire, “You two are no better than Phantasia!”
Vigorous Orchestria replied, “In mine, Purple, my Rangers, the Equestrian MARSOC, and the Equestria Special Forces. We take our gloves off very early to get the dirty to keep Equestria and to an extend the world to be free. You’re one of millions who don’t know what we do. You’re one in a million who goes home every night and goes to sleep after jerking off eighty times and what we do. What we do you’ll never learn. If what we do makes you upset or offends you well boo fucking who!”
Head Guardian Sapphire got up again.
“Leave then I will try you for treason and interfering with a military operation,” said Vigorous Orchestria.
"Let me set you straight. I'm Purple's Boss and you're not my Boss. Go ahead file the legal action which will be BS on your part. Purple works as a Gaurdain he fucked up his job as a Gaurdain and he should take consequences for doing that! And no, it's not treason by the way and it's not inferring with a military operation by the way. I'm pretty sure the Royal Court will agree with me," Sapphire said. "I don't appreciate you threatening my job when I did nothing wrong. You guys were in the wrong. Go ahead and try to arrest me for doing my job as Purple's Boss and I am in authority to fire him. Have a good day!”
With that Sapphire stormed out of the office before she did something that she would regret. She's had enough of ponies overstepping their boundaries when it comes down to doing her job as Purple's Boss when it comes down to being a Guardian. Threatening to try her for treason for doing her job was for sure overstepping things. She wasn't afraid because she hired a lawyer the very next day.
***
Later that day.
Purple entered the Head Guardian Sapphire Rose office.
“Yes Head Guardian?” asked Purple.
Head Guardian Sapphire had a look in her eyes and on her face that if looks could kill then Purple would’ve died the moment he entered the office.
“I’m very mad at you for doing the opposite of what I told you!” snarled Sapphire.
Purple replied, “No I did what you told me to do until it went badly!”
“Explain yourself!” said Sapphire.
Purple replied, “I infiltrated a small underground group of Phantasia’s army that’s here in Canterlot. Some stallion insulted me by thinking that I joined them because they think that I thought that mares are inferior to stallions, which is not! Remember you ordered me to infiltrate so you’re equally as responsible as well especially when I warned you that something bad would happen! Get another Guardian to infiltrate Phantasia’s army.”
“I’m your boss so you have to do as I say!” said Sapphire, “When I meant to infiltrate I didn’t mean you killing forty ponies because one of them insulted you by thinking you joined them because they thought you see mares as inferiors!”
Purple replied, “I don’t tell you how to do your job so don’t tell me how to do mine! You may be my boss but that doesn’t mean I have to kiss your ass. If you got somepony else or told me to do recon then this would’ve been avoided. I was trained to infiltrate but that was to sneak in undetected, kill any officers or high ranking pony and leave before anypony notice. Also the units I was with we specialize in precision fire, fast deployment, stealth, and assassination.”
“What unofficial unit were you apart of” asked Sapphire.
Purple replied, “Thirteenth Airborne. Got two nicknames which is; You should be running now and judgment from the skies. Also if you don’t want to be friends with me anymore then I understand.
“Purple I still do want to be friends but you got to dial your military training very far back. Is Equestria really under EEM-117?” said Sapphire.
Purple replied, “We are I did it the other day.Due to the Gate Guardians aren’t the military then all but me is labeled as civilians so if anypony who’s a Gate Guardian interferes with the stop of Phantasia would be sentenced to prison for interfering with an domestic military counter-insurgency operation. The punishment is either three life sentences or execution where interfering with a military deployment can either be a capital punishment or a very long prison sentence. Honestly only me, the military higher ups, every high ranking military officer, and now you know about it where everypony else goes on with their lives like nothing is happening and don’t know it’s activated and that’s because I don’t want Phantasia to know that we’re on him.”
"Did you activate it to get back at me and the other nine hundred and thirty seven other mares because we rejected you?" Asked Sapphire, "Because I have a feeling that is half of the story you're not telling."
Purple replied, "Do I hate being single and not having a special somepony? Damn right I hate it but I'm not declaring a state of emergency due to the fact that I don't have a girlfriend and after our date I'm no longer interested in love. Also my defense cabinet and I had a fourteen hour emergency defense meeting to talk about Phantasia. We all agreed to label Phantasia and his army as an insurgency. If you don't like it then you're more than welcome to talk to me and the rest of my defense cabinet and if you get four out of six to change their minds then we'll release EEM-117 and everything will go back to normal with our defense condition going back to four not three. Until then Equestria will be under Emergency Equestrian Defense-117 and be at Defcon 3."
Purple then left.
***
Fourteen years ago.
How the Hell did one of our prototype airships made of reinforced tungsten get hijacked? Purple thought.
"Lieutenant, get us close for entry," said Purple, "If you can get us into a hanger that'll be sweet but we're not looking for a miracle!"
Lieutenant Honey Cake replied, "I'll get you as close as I can. But the moment we come under fire I'm telling you to get the fuck out because I'm not planning on getting blown out of the sky."
Purple then entered the troop bay of the VTOL.
A hologram appeared on a metallic airship but the hologram was blue and was spinning in a counterclockwise way.
"This is the ENMAS (Equestrian Navy Metallic Airship) Enchantment," said Purple, "This is the Enchantment.Length: 18868 feet, Width:2739 feet, Height: 3419 feet. Has 300 40mm point defense guns, and several hundred missile and rocket pods for both offense and defense actions, Crew: 11,112, Soldiers and Marines: 7,150 soldiers and 5,400 Marines. When we board the airship we have to assume all contacts are hostile."
Soon there were some explosive sounds and Purple re-entered the cockpit.
"Take us closer Lieutenant!" Said Purple, "If not then those point defense guns would tear us to shreds without this VTOL!"
Honey Cake replied, "I'm not going all the way there. Fuck that one was close! You and your team got to get out in thirty seconds…" An explosion came close and cracked part of the windshield. "Make it in ten seconds!"
Purple went back into the troop bay and told the non Pegasus spec ops soldiers to grab a wingsuit where they got to go. They did and the ramp door opened and Lieutenant Honey Cake turned the VTOL out.
"Get out now!" Ordered Honey Cake.
They all did and she flew off with her VTOL.
“Focus fire on the hanger bay glass!” said Purple.
Purple and the soldiers with him did and broke the glass and landed before the automatic metallic door closed to seal up the hullbreach.
“This is Two-Yankee Six,” said Major Vigorous Orchestra over the radio, “We’ve secured Hanger Two and are moving to Hanger Three. We’re going to go secure the bridge after securing Hanger Three. Two- Yankee Six over and out!”
Purple replied, “Roger Two- Yankee Six. We’re securing Hanger four and going to secure the armory and the engine rooms after securing Hanger four. Five-Delta Six Over and out. Hotel 3-1 come in over!”
"This is Hotel 3-1," said Honey Cake.
Purple replied, "Need you to be on standby for evacuation when we have to do plan C!"
"Plan C?" Asked Honey Cake.
"If we cannot fully recapture the ship we'll blow it sky high and destroy it when Two- Yankee Six retrieves every vital Intel and data on the ship." Said Purple, "Plan B would just blow up the ship with all of us on board."
"Copy Five- Delta Six," said Honey Cake, "My squadron will be on standby when y'all need emergency evac. Lost a couple of birds and a few Ranger and Marine chalks on the way in. But we'll be there when you call. Hotel 3-1 over and out."
Major Vigorous Orchestra and the rest of Two- Yankee Six were able to take Hanger Three and take the bridge where they started to download every vital Intel and data from the ships computers on the bridge. They were now cut off and surrounded so Purple ordered the rest of Five- Delta Six to go and reinforce Two- Yankee Six so they did.
Purple went into the engine room and found a PA system so he went over to it.
"I'm in acting EN Protocol 3453," said Purple over the PA/Intercom system.
Both Two- Yankee Six and Five- Delta Six headed back to the hangers and got on their rides out of there while Purple stayed behind. He overloaded the engines but he went to the hangar where he looked down.
I'm nine and a half miles in the sky, Purple thought, Do I stay onboard and die? Nope I'm going to jump!
Purple then saw Honey Cake VTOL come.
Purple jumped with his all four legs spread out and he soon had his face, face the ground with his back half facing towards the sky.
"Oh come on," said Honey Cake.
Honey Cake flew and stayed ahead of Purple.
"Open up!" Said Purple.
Honey Cake pressed a button and opened the ramp door. Purple came inside of the VTOL dropship.
"You can make this bird horizontal now, not vertical anymore," Said Purple.
Honey Cake did.
"Purple don't know how you can find a uniform that can fit you with balls that huge!" Said Honey Cake, "Is this what you do normally? (Places wing onto microphone) Hotel 3-1 to command. Mission accomplished, we're coming home."
Purple entered the cockpit and sat behind Lieutenant Honey Cake and put on a pilot helmet.
This operation never happened, Purple thought, All files on this will be covered in black ink or locked away in deep places. The Equestrian Naval Airship Service is pissed that their prototype airship has been hijacked and I blew it up, ripping it in half.
Soon the VTOL dropship is mysteriously brought down.
"You okay Lieutenant?" Asked Purple, "Stay here. I'm going to find out what brought us down!"
Purple used his magic to open the back ramp door and closed it but he left his shotgun behind so Honey Cake could use it.
Purple went on his merry way and came upon a small village which wasn't friendly and he was fired upon and he killed all those who fired at him.
He soon came across a unicorn mare who used her magic to randomly throw Purple around but when he got up the mare threw him through a tree.
"That's all you got!" Said Purple.
The mare then yawned thinking Purple wasn't a threat until she lost Purple which he snuck up behind her, turned her around, and placed a metallic tomahawk into her face.
Purple then went back to get Honey Cake.
"You okay?" Asked Purple.
Honey Cake replied, "Besides masturbating for the fifth time I'm fine. Had nothing to do besides sitting here and pretending that I wasn't."
Purple and Honey Cake went back to base via walking.
***
Present day
"I should've dated and married Honey Cake," said Purple, "But my window for that closed eleven years ago and she's the type of mare that doesn't give second chances. She's a once chance mare so if I went and asked her out she'll politely refuse and tell me that I should've asked her out eleven years ago. I could ask out Vigorous Orchestra but she's both Aromantic and Asexual and sees relationships as nothing but waste of time so she's out."
Purple just walked around Canterlot Castle just avoided the Royal Guard's and Princess Twilight of course he's just honing his stealth skills.
He entered a spacious room with a solid oak table and several chairs. His defense cabinet was sitting waiting for him so he sat down. After a few minutes soon Head Guardian Sapphire Rose entered after being escorted by two of Purple's Royal Guards.
"We all previously agreed to activate EEM-117" Said Purple, "But Ms. Sapphire thinks we shouldn't while we stealthily combat Phantasia. All in favor of deactivating EEM-117?"
Admiral Morning Squall, Commander Kitty Hawk, Captain of Industry and Industrial workhorse Sunny Day, Illusive Shadow, Commander of Weather Operations Stormy Day, and Commander of tactics Thunderbolt Strike.
They looked at each other not even for half a second before they all said "Neigh" or "Negative".
"Won't all of you just think about it?" Asked Sapphire, "Because wouldn't sooner or later Everypony else or Phantasia find out that Equestria is under EEM-117 and find a way to move out so as to not get caught?"
Commander Kitty Hawk replied, "If you're willing to have Phantasia and his army stand out in the middle of a field so the Equestrian Air Force can use their rotary cannons and drop napalm onto them then I'll be all aboard with deactivating EEM-117."
"Ditto," said Admiral Morning Squall, "Put Phantasia and his army near or on a coast line then I'll have the Equestrian Navy perform a shore bombardment to blow them sky-high. Then I'll vote to deactivate EEM-117."
Sunny Day replied, "I won't and until Phantasia stops his activities until then all factories and defense plans will be under Defense Alert Alpha."
"Until this Phantasia jagoff is dealt with," said Shadow, "Equestria will stay under Increased intelligence watch and strengthened security measures. The EIA has wiretapped every city, town, and prison in and across Equestria as per measure as stated in EEM-117."
Thunderbolt Strike replied, "The Equestrian Armed Forces is on heightened alert and the soldiers, Marines, sailors, and aircrews are put under and doing double patrols and are on alert. They have orders to shoot to kill."
"The weather factory," said Stormy Day, "And the Pegasus who do the clouds and weather are under strict movements and are under house arrest and only can do their job when told to do so and their movements are limited. We had some members of the Government and Military but Purple isn't very friendly towards traitor's."
Purple replied, "All of you know that Equestria either executes or banishes traitors. Also "I'm not a patient stallion. Or a compassionate one when it comes to traitors and enemy spies."
"Well there's one stallion who is under military arrest for spying," said Sunny Day, "He says he's been feeding military Intel to a mare named Sandy Fire to know what forces Equestria currently possess."
Purple replied, "Yes, and once we're finished with this mole, he'll be as blind and buried with nopony knowing where he's buried at."
"Is that an implied death threat Purple?" Asked Sapphire.
Purple replied, "I didn't become Lieutenant General by playing patty cake. Also because the Phantasia group we consider as an insurgency force. The stallion who was feeding Sandy Fire this Intel or started to feed her that Intel he'll be tried for treason and would either be hung or shot by a firing squad or banished."
"So about lowering or removing the EEM-117," said Sapphire.
Purple and the others looked at each other and after a brief conversation told her that they won't lift it until either Phantasia is either dead or in shackles or stays on the down low.
Head Guardian Sapphire then left due to the fact that she couldn't convince them to change their minds.
Soon two holograms appeared, one was of an Earth pony mare and the same earth pony mare with a black cloak.
"This is Sandy Fire," said Shadow, "Earth pony, her fur is red and her mane and tail is white. Her eyes are red. She wears a black hooded cloak. Intel and recon says she is able to summon fire by stomping on the ground and taking the moisture out of the air. Her weapon of choice is a shield that she uses to direct her fire powers and block others attacks against her. Her cutie mark is of a black square with a ball of fire inside. Me and the rest of the EIA think she's Phantasia right hoof mare. We don't know anything else about her but when we do I'll pass the word to all of you."
Purple replied, "So we get rid of her then… No first we start with the officers in Phantasia group then move up to Sandy Fire until Phantasia is by himself unable to react due to having nopony to defend him. I got a feeling that when he loses he'll be crying like a foal or running away."
"Before we end this," said Admiral Morning Squall, "Got something to say which is that I think Purple, you and Sandy Fire might be a cute couple. Wonder what Sandy Fire Jr and Purple Jr would look like."
All of them looked at Admiral Morning Squall and their facial expression says "Not funny."
"Before we do go," said Purple, "We are in extreme danger from Phantasia army. Our freedom, our very way of life is at risk. We need to stop him like yesterday."
The holograms disappeared and all of them went their own way.
***
In the Head Guardian Sapphire Rose office.
"Purple I decided to read your file," said Sapphire, "I'm happy to have your skill set with us. I’m told you are the very best we have as well. Remember we're a team that lone wolf stuff stays behind. Clear?"
Purple replied, "Copy that Head Guardian Sapphire."
"Also I've read the stuff that the EIA and EWD didn't want me to see. Also when you get partnered up with somepony remember you're in a team." Said Sapphire, "Not a lone wolf. Hyper-lethal? Never worked with somepony who's hyper-lethal and made entire fifth column groups and rival political and insurgent groups disappear like they never existed. Oh your file says you took part in a military operation that you had to secure enemy trenches and an enemy artillery encampment but you were just leading a regiment of soldiers across open field while the enemy had machine gunners, snipers and battle harden infantry and officers not adding they had mortar, artillery, and gas support. Don't know how you did it."
Purple replied, "Forty at a time. I would take twenty assault ponies and nineteen rifle ponies. The Assault Team uses a semi automatic rifle, two submachine guns, and an automatic rifle, consisting of 4 ponies. They use their grenades to clear out trenches and other enclosed spaces. We weren't issued gas masks, just charged across an opened field. I had a few snipers who would target their officers because killing enemy officers would have the enemy morale drop dramatically. Me, Jackpot and Scrumptious were a part of an assault team. I had 5499 soldiers under my command… me and Fourteen others returned and it wasn't worth the price. The pony who was above me and a fresh ROTC graduate when the Equestrian flag was put up had it torn down and had a flag of his hometown of Vanhoofer put up and I went over to him and punched him in the face. I also got to punch two Military Police officers as well. What would've you done if the Nintis Empire and Equestria were allies and you were in a battle and you had the Nintis Empire flag put up but an Equestrian Army officer had it torn down and a flag of Equestria was put up because that jackass thought and thinks that he and the soldiers who didn't die were and are better than you and the soldiers under your command died."
"You're free to go Purple. I just thought I should've told you that," said Sapphire. "If that did happen then I would have a few choice words with that pony. I would tell him that he didn't partake in the battle and if he sent me and my soldiers on a suicide run so they could get the glory of taking an objective then I would say some colorful words. I don't care who they are. They don't deserve the glory and recognition of others if they didn't do anything."
Purple nodded and walked to the door.
"Remember Purple," said Sapphire, "That lone wolf stuff stays behind."
Purple then left.
"Hope I don't have to put him under somewhat of a house arrest!" Said Sapphire.
Head Guardian Sapphire went back to her work.

Purple went to meet with Lieutenant Colonel Vigorous Orchestra who was invisible due to her ghillie suit and accidentally stepped on her butt.
"Nothing to report yet," said Vigorous Orchestra, "Permission to open fire if I see Phantasia?"
Purple replied, "Negative. We need him alive, not dead. Kill him then either his army will be now led by Sandy Fire and were back at square one or everypony in his army fades away and re enter civilian life like nothing. Keep your wing off of that trigger."
"Yeah well he'll learn why ponies call me 'Shadow' because," said Vigorous Orchestra,"For reconnaissance, intelligence gathering and retrieval and sniper support I'm never seen and never heard. Should let me put a few 7.62x51mm rounds into his crotch or ass to make him go back to his mama. Lil punk ass bitch is what Phantasia is."
Purple replied, "Just don't kill him or scare him. We don't need him to know we're on to him. Let him think we don't know he's a threat. Also if war does break out…"
"I get to snipe him and his army," said Vigorous Orchestra, "Yeah I know. Squeeze the trigger and they're dead."
Purple went on his way to do his job and to go home wishing he died. Vigorous Orchestra would directly report to Purple and to the Equestrian Intelligence Agency for any new reports.
I'm not afraid of Sandy Fire or Phantasia! Vigorous Orchestra thought, Should've just given me permission to open fire when I see them. But if I think they spotted me or think they know where me and my spotter are then we'll relocate somewhere else.
Purple went back wishing he was dead and wanted to die. The only thing he wants is to die because that's how he felt and still feels since his twentieth birthday and without having a girlfriend or wife he just doesn't see the point of living anymore he's just tired of living.

At home.
"I can't keep doing this," said Purple, "My legs and hooves are just tired of running. I'm tired of living. I don't wanna go back out there… I can't do this any more… I can't keep doing this."
Soon the ghost of Purple's adoptive mother appeared out of thin air.
"Purple don't act like this," said Booker, "You're my strong, brave and heroic little pony. You have to stay strong. I know how painful it is not having a loved one. Before me and your adoptive father got married and dated. I would ask out stallions in middle school and high school for dances and dates but all of them rejected me. While that Ms. Sapphire Rose and the other nine hundred and thirty seven other mares are whores and bitches who'll gladly see you as a 'soft stallion' but when they get pregnant by another stallion they'll come crawling back they always do."
Purple replied, "Mama I'm just tired of life and just given up. I just want to enter the afterlife if there is one. There's nothing for me here in Equestria or the world. I'm just like a Colt who's lost in the supermarket and his parents unintentionally abandoned him. I want to see you, dad, and my friends again. I got nothing here and I got no life. I'm just plagued with nightmares."
"We'll be together soon," said Booker, "You just have to go through one more hardship then we'll be reunited. I know you want to give up Purple. I've been there. Just deal with this Phantasia dick and me and you will be reunited in the afterlife. Can you do that for me?"
Purple replied, "I'll try mom. Can't make a full guarantee but I'll try."
"If your dad was here," said Booker, "He'll say 'As long as you tried then that's all that matters'. Just deal with that dick named Phantasia then you can finally join me, your dad and the rest of us up here."
Purple replied, "Mom? What's the afterlife like?"
"It's a wonderful place where you can see all those who you miss and can spend all eternity with them," said Booker, "I get to see my dead friends everyday and I still have the stallion who I married and gladly raised you never mind your brother and sister. I gotta go Purple but remember just get through this one final hardship. Do it for me."
Purple replied, "I will mom. I will.'
Soon Booker vanished into thin air and Purple broke down crying. He even threw his military issued pistol which went off when it hit the wall.
"Now it goes off!" Said Purple while crying, "Yet it won't when I want to die!"
