//------------------------------// // Rebels // Story: Kill Your Heroes // by pokefreak13 //------------------------------// I ran up to a jet black colt and set down my almost empty bucket for him to drink. The colt took a sip and then looked around anxiously. When all the soldiers were out of earshot, he leaned into my ear. "Tonight go to the bakery. Knock three times then say Luna Republic." he whispered. I nodded, grabbed my bucket, and trotted along to a mare who was painting the marble statue of King Sombra. I snuck past a solider and galloped to the only standing bakery. Then I looked around before I knocked on the burnt door three times. A small grey filly opened the door and smiled like an idiot at me. "Luna Republic." I whispered to him. The filly nodded and let me in. Then he closed the door quietly and led me to the basement. Once we were in the basement, the filly lifted a cardboard box and motioned me to climb down a hole the box was covering up. I reluctantly climbed down and was instantly greeted with smoke and whiskey. "There you are." the same black colt said. I coughed and glared at him. "Is this some kind of joke! I risked my life just to see drunk colts smoking crystal weed!" I shouted. A brown colt with a scar over his eye took a swig from a bottle. "We are the resistance." he explained. I raised an eyebrow. "We are the only rebels left. I called you here because we have a five stage plan that will need your assistance." a yellow colt with a missing ear informed me. I bit my lip. Should I? Killing King Sombra will be rewarding. However, there is a huge risk of dying in the process. A risk I'm able to take. "What's the plan?" I asked. The black colt patted my back. "Well first I should introduce ya to the gang." He pointed to the colt with the scar. "That's Chief Furry." Then he pointed to the one eared colt. "That's Sulfur." Then he pointed to himself. "And I'm Killer." "I'm Fire Cracker." I told the squad. Killer led us into a small room with a large table and a map of the Crystal Empire on it. We circled around and Chief Ferry cleared his throat. "We have a five stage plan that will for sure defeat this ass of a king." Then Sulfur began to tell us of the plan. Let me just say it was one of the craziest plans I have ever heard of.
