Rule 16

Domination of Equestria - T+27 days.


“Just shoot him! Get it over with!”
“If I have to tell you to calm down one more time Corporal I’ll shoot you. Do I make myself clear?”

“Yes...Captain.”
“Good.”

How did I get stuck with this lot?
Oh yea, I’d pissed in the Overlord’s personal gold plated latrine. I guess I got off lightly.
Damn it was a good piss though. You wouldn’t have thought the gold would do much for the experience but…

Anyway. Here we are, in the morning dew, standing over one of the last remaining rebel guard commanders. I’m kinda proud of our performance overall. He was a slippery one. Hiding out in the Foal Mountain range, he’d been a nightmare to track down.
In the end, we caught him out on patrol on his own.

Ok, so in the end it was pure luck. I'll still take it though.

It really sucks.

“Right, listen here Rebel Scum, before-”
“Err, Captain?”

“Ahhhggg...What!?”
“You can’t ask him that.”

“I hadn’t asked him anything yet!”
“Exactly.”

“What on Earth are you blathering on about!”
“Regulations state quite clearly that any prisoner sentenced to execution will not be asked any questions immediately prior to said execution.”

“And what makes this ‘immediately prior’ humm?”
“You’ve got a plasma gun pressed against his skull.”

“Ok, but what difference does it make if I ask him my questions now, then shoot him, or ask him then shoot him later? We need to know the location of the rebel base! Do you want to be stuck out here trying to flush guardsponies out of holes for the next six months!?”
“No sir, but regulations…”

“Damn the regulations! Listen here you traitorous scum, you will tell me-
“Captain, no!”

“-before I kill you, where’s the location of the hidden rebel base!?”
“Oh now you’ve done it…”

”FOR CELESTIA! FOR EQUESTRIA! CHAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGEEEEE!”





“Their helmet recordings finish here my Master.”
“Schedule retraining for all those in command posts. Use this as an example of not following regulations correctly.”
“By your command, my Master.”

Overlord Rule No:16 I will never utter the sentence "But before I kill you, there's just one thing I want to know."
