After the witnessing of the most adorable pony in the world being blown up into a few million pieces, it was quite hard for Lion to not lose it. And when the narrator of this story means ‘lose it’ he means ‘going completely insane’. Or, ‘going completely bonkers’ as the kids might call it.
During the long silence that nobody was expecting to end nicely, Eagle took the liberty to make his exit.
“My dog is calling.” He then proceeded to eject from his aircraft shortly before plummeting into the ground with no parachute as he forgot to pack it earlier that day. His jet followed soon after.
There goes a sixty million dollar F-18.
Frost thought momentarily forgetting what else he had lost that day. He remembered.
Oh, and that sixty dollar watch I lent Eagle.
Frost sat there, mourning the loss of the expensive jet, and his precious, precious watch.
Lion, on the other hoof... hand, was furious. If a TNT explosion was the average anger of a person, Lion’s anger would have taken the size of a full nuclear bomb.
He had plans for the Rainbow Dash: take her on long walks, play some videogames, show her some of his fanfiction. It was going to be perfect. However, the simple illusion of what was going to be a perfect life was merely smudged by Jaguar.
“Why did you do that for?!” Lion screamed.
“I didn’t do anything! The missile went straight passed her, you saw that!”
Lion didn’t listen. Instead, he loaded his canons as he changed to attack positions. He performed a loop which led him to start shooting Jaguar. They both engaged in air-to-air combat, which seemed to last for ages as they were both skilfully matched.
Although, that didn’t stop them from continuing the fight for a few hours.
Meanwhile, back at HQ.
Surveillance watched Tower Four. They seemed to be fighting about which episode was the best from their playlist. It was not long for the surveillance team to find out that everybody in there were complete idiots.
Daniel turned to his companion. “I think they’re idiots.”
“That makes two of us,” Mark replied. “Didn’t expect the operating officer to kill half of the team just because they didn’t like Fluttershy as much as Twilight though.”
“Yeah...” Daniel sighed. “Speaking of My Little Pony, how are those Rainbow Dash drones working out?”
Mark shook his head. “Not good. They seem to self-destruct after a few hours.”
“Really? Why is that?”
“It seems to be a problem with the power distributor overloading.” He sipped his coffee. “We’ll have to fix that later.”
They were both silent as they watched Tower Four play Russian Roulette through their surveillance monitors.
“Hey,” Daniel turned to Mark. “Do you think it was a bad idea to not tell anybody about your Rainbow Dash Drone experiment?”
“Bad idea? Why do you say that?”
“Well, I don’t know, what if it caused harm?”
Mark chuckled. “It’s an unarmed drone designed to look like a cartoon pony. What harm could it have caused?”
