Sadly it appears to be labelled "complete", but I would love for that to be proven wrong.

Twilight Angry :twilightangry2:
:pinkiehappy: Awesome story. Action scenes (which was like the entire thing) were fast and fun. :rainbowdetermined2:

To be honest, when I initially labeled it as incomplete, that was a mistake on my part. ^-^a
This was actually a backup story, of a backup story, of another story I was working on for The Badass Twilight contest thingy. :twilightsheepish:
I had about two hours to come up with something, and... this is what happened with 10 minutes to spare. :fluttercry:

I... don't really have any concrete plans to take the story any further, even though I despise cliff-hangers with the burning hot intensity of a thousand suns. :twilightangry2:
So, I'm gonna do something I don't normally do:

If anyone else wants to write a spin-off or take this story to another conclusion, knock yourself out, you have my blessing. :twilightsmile:

I'm not saying that I'll never bring this story to a better conclusion (it's becoming more likely that I may actually give this story more love due to the rapid amount of positive reactions :rainbowhuh: ), but before I do that, there's a lot more stuff I have to do. :twilightsheepish:
Two of them being:
1. Draw some actual goddamn cover/chapter art
2. Release the other stories

4501243 well, at least there's a chance for it to continue.

4501243 What's the other story?

4501617

If I can finish the cover/chapter art for it, then it should start going up later today. :twilightsmile:

4519129

It's becoming increasingly likely that I might. :twilightsheepish:

Replaced the placeholder cover, and added chapter art.

If anyone's curious, this story won the won the short story category for the Exiled Twilight Contest.
Here was my response:

Makes me wonder what would've happened if I'd submitted a longer story. :trixieshiftright:

4739139 :rainbowderp: did someone say 'longer story'?

4763780

*sips tea*
I will make no such promises. But it's not completely impossible. :scootangel:

4739139 I heard the words longer storh? Or maybe sequel?

It's over already? Nooooo!

Elite soldiers are just as much cannon-fodder as a recruit.
