//------------------------------// // Chapter XII: The Plan // Story: Machina // by Gordon Freeman_1 //------------------------------// Twilight and Rockefeller went back to the main base of the gang were all the gang members were hanging out and talking at. They had a plan that they wanted to tell all of them about before they try to convince Celestia to give them support.   They got to the central building of Manehattan and rode the elevator up to the main office where some of Rockefeller’s officers were at.   Rockefeller went over to his desk while Twilight just hanged out by the door to the elevator. “I want everypony in this entire building to report to the conference room immediately! I mean it immediately!” Rockefeller said over the intercom system.   Twilight had a concern look in her eyes. “Do you think they’ll like the plan Rockefeller?”   “They should Twilight,” Rockefeller said walking towards the elevator. “But if they don’t, I’ll make them like it dang it.”   Twilight stepped into the elevator with Rockefeller and both of them rode it down to the very bottom floor. When they reached the bottom floor there was a hallway to their right that lead to the conference room that Rockefeller was talking about earlier. They both stepped into it and saw almost all of Rockefeller’s gang piled in it.   Most of them heard Rockefeller walking in and turned towards the door. They immediately covered their heads when they saw Twilight. Everypony in Rockefeller’s gang knew what happen to Twilight and how it was their fault.   “Don’t worry my colleagues, she is on our side!” Rockefeller said walking down the center isle while Twilight followed closely behind.   Most of the gang members sighed in relief and looked up at her metallic body and were also entertained for the fact that she was walking on only two hooves.   There was a large stage at the end of the room were Twilight and Rockefeller stood facing towards the crowd the huge crowd.   “My loyal members, today it’s time I introduce a new plan that my alley Twilight and I have discussed. We are going to kill the other three gangs that rival us!” Rockefeller said sounding determined.   Nopony spoke a word. They couldn’t tell whether or not he was serious or not. They knew how strong the other two gangs were and were afraid to even cross paths with them.   Twilight stood walked up next to Rockefeller. “Rockefeller is serious when he says this everypony! And for added support I will make sure Princess Celestia provides us royal aid against our attacks against the other two gangs!   “She may not be two fond with working with you all at first, but she’ll want to if she finds out that you all want the other two gangs gone right?!” Twilight shouted with an evil smile of determination.   “YEAH!!!” everypony in the conference room shouted. Then they started to cheer and dance around but soon calmed down when Twilight raised a hoof.   “Now I know you all are stronger than two of the gangs, so those two we should be able to take on our own. However with the Soldiers of the Seventh Element, we’re going to need Celestia’s help. Besides, with me leading this charge on those gangs, we should have them at our mercy within mere minutes!   “Now I know you all think I’m crazy, but look at yourselves. I see a soldier that’s blood thirsty. Now I know my role as a Princess in Equestria is to spread Friendship throughout the land, but I simply cannot do that if these gangs are killing innocent ponies left and right. I really don’t want to kill anypony, but unfortunately I have too. So, WHO’S WITH ME?!” Twilight yelled raising her hoof again.   Everypony in the room started to cheer once more. Twilight smiled and stepped back as Rockefeller stood forward. “We head out for Las Pegasus tomorrow morning, our first targets are the Masters of the Air. Since they’ve killed more of our members than the other gangs combined. Thank you everypony for standing by Twilight and myself for tonight. I promise when this is all over we will have a celebration of the goddesses! Thank you everypony!”   Twilight and Rockefeller stepped down from the stage and walked back down the center isle as everypony started to cheer as they passed by. Eventually they got to the door and walked out.   “I really don’t want to do this Rockefeller, but we have to unfortunately,” Twilight said closing the door behind her.   “I know Twilight, now go get some rest. We have a big day tomorrow.”
