//------------------------------// // Nightfall // Story: The Rise Of The New Lunar Republic // by Meh121 //------------------------------// Night had fallen over us and it was a perfect time to begin our assault. After a few hours of napping we planned our assault. "Get ready to move into position." I said to the 8 ponies I took with me. We were running a quick run and gun we were going to take out as many as we could. I threw out a smoke grenade and motioned for us to move. We brought only knives with us and anything silent besides guns. I threw on my infrared goggles and spotted two guards I motioned for Cadence to take out the other guard and Shining Armor to take out the other while I took the third one I just spotted on the roof. I flew up behind the guard and went behind the guard held his mouth shut and slit his throat. Cadence used a spell on the guard to make him kill himself with a knife. Shining Armor threw his knife at the back of the guards head and kill him Twilight saved us from stopping him from screaming. I spotted another guard on the roof I pushed him off the edge of the roof after gagging him. I turned around to find a guard spotted me I used my magic to cut off all power on his communications like an emp. I used my magic to keep him from talking. He was backing up scared to die. I could see he was young he had no reason to die. "Shut up and I'll let you live make a loud sounds and I'll kill you." I said to him. He nodded at me "I'm going to cancel the spell now remember our deal." I said to him. I canceled the spell and stole his pistol and waited for him to make a sound. He was smart and did not say a thing. "How old are you?" I asked him. "16." The young pony said. "Look I'm going to cut you a break today get out of here and get out of the war." I said to him. "But..." He stuttered "Do it before I don't hesitate to kill you...you have your whole life ahead of you." I said jumping down onto a guards shoulders stabbing him in the back of the head. I motioned for us to go into the arms room in Celestia's castle. We walked in thought darkness till I hit a spot I wanted to be. I put a blasting charge on the door. I motioned for a countdown 5,4,3,2,1. I thought as I motioned with my hoof. I picked up that there was a pony nearby I used the young soldiers pistol to shoot him before he spotted us. "Go loud!" I said I picked out one of my favorite weapons a ACR 6.8 it looked like my old one back from WWIII. I looked and it was it had my initials engraved into and everything. I grabbed 30 mags for my gun using my magic to make bigger saddle bags. My ACR was rigged which back with me being a human in the military would get me in trouble. It fired faster then an AK-47 and had the same fire power the mags had a 45 mag clip the grenade launcher shot out two grenades."Give them hell." I said shooting at the guards who were coming at us from both sides. I loaded the grenade launcher and blew a hole in the wall. "Go get out before we get surrounded." I said motioning for us to leave. I waited for everypony to leave. I was surrounded from all over cornered into a small hallway on both sides. I looked at my surroundings and spotted two chandeliers I used my grenade launcher to shot them down they landed on some ponies crushing them and giving me time to leave. I shot at the ponies while running out of Canterlot Castle I threw the clip to the ground and pulled one out and quickly reloaded and began firing more and more. I threw two flash bangs and a smoke grenade and armed a booby trap with trip wire if they stabbed and tripped it would rig an explosive I used my magic to finish up the last touches. "Let's get out of here." I said teleporting us back to Luna's Castle. "So how was the mission?" Luna asked looking at us. "It went well let's just say we dealt a major blow in their security and their ego." I said laughing a bit. "Excellent." Luna said walking away. "This was one my most interesting nightfall's ever." I said. "Same here it was fun it was almost as fun as making a sonic rainboom." Dash said. I walked back to my bunk and fell asleep almost as soon as I closed my eyes
