Or a very surprised Twilight Sparkle, fresh from the Burro Burrito Barn.

Huh. Wasn't expecting that-although, Dig Dag had just been critically wounded and, even if he survived, he's missing pretty good chunks of both arms-hands included. It'd be difficult for him to live in a civilized society, never the less Diamond Dog society. Of course a rival would take advantage of the sudden weakness.
First, yay for horrible hallucinations. Furthermore, thank god he was using Flamingo-this could have been a party killer if he'd been using a regular old enchanted sword with a sharp blade without the additional sentience bound to it, free of charge.
Although, on thing does bother me here...
Why didn't they run the hell away?
Unless I'm massively misinterpreting their position-they're at the entrance to the Diamond Dog lair, and at no point did you mention they were surrounded. And, before the fight even really begins in earnest, another Diamond Dog tries to overthrow Dig Dag and it is immediately apparent this rival has significant pull if pretty much all of the Diamond Dogs end up fighting one another. Honestly, this situation is in my opinion even worse than a unified Diamond Dog force with such a chaotic melee-if nothing else, they're just as likely to be hit by a missed attack as they are by an intentional one. And, to top it off, unless I misread the chapter, they weren't surrounded-even in a panic, the best thing to do here is run the hell away, maybe make a strategic retreat and let the Diamond Dogs fight it out. That would make a hell of a lot more sense, considering how grossly outnumbered they seem to be.
Even considering that they are in a panic and clear thought isn't exactly present, retreat is something basic enough I thought they'd at least try before being enveloped in this mass melee.
Then again, Tarnish frankly isn't an experienced soldier, and neither is Maud-as for Octavia and Vinyl...frankly I'm not sure. They've shown themselves to both be very talented and skilled, even in combat, but there's a difference between being a potentially good brawler and dealing with a swarm of angry Diamond Dogs in armor and with weaponry.

Some where following orders. Others were following different orders. Some heard no orders, but knew they were under attack. So they came up to the surface and found a fracas. Some were too busy fighting each other. In short, it was chaos. And you have no way of knowing if some fled or not, because Tarnish was the victim of an alchemical bomb that garbled his senses.
So the reader too, also is left not knowing what took place exactly.
I will say this, Tarnish was not the only creature affected by the alchemical bomb, but this will be addressed later.
Tarnish has terrible saving throws.
Edit: I just realised that you meant why didn't Tarnish and company run away. I has the stupids. I'm hot and I don't feel very good. I cannot brain and I has the dumbs.
Hmm could this be the terrible act of destruction that was talked about several chapters back by the blue orb monitor?
Edit:
Yay Grrr is back!
Edit#2:Fixed distraction to destruction.
Good chapter.

7477963 Chuckle, reminds me of a one shot I read ages ago about Cadance.

Grrr, I choose you!
Sorry, I just couldn't resist. It looks like Shimmy is causing problems again.
7478301
Shimmy causing problems? How?
Huh? She's not even in this chapter.

- I would hate to see your phone bill...
7478361
I was thinking she's the one that tossed the drug bag. She does, after all, want him to cause an incident.
7478454
Nope. This was diamond dog alchemy.
7478085
Destruction, not distraction. If Tarnish wanted to cause a distraction, he would post pictures of Vinyl Scratch's tits everywhere.
7478477
Damned Diamond Dog drug lords! They gotta quit cutting their shiat with PCP....
7478492
Shiat. Are you a Farker?
7478478 I was wondering if anyone would catch that intentional mistake... You don't beleive me do you? Okay you got me red handed. But yes I meant Destruction.
The next chapter is gonna blow!
That's an impressive first harvest there, partner.
What's the Dovahkin Shout for tornado?
Cause I think Tarnish just used it He causing the Into The Storm tornado to appear, hehe.
NIcely done!
This was a literal D&D fight. That faerie fire, dazzling lights... I love it.
You know... I kinda would have liked to see Tarnish and company back off and bring the problem to Princess Celestia and see what the result would have been.
This is due to what Dig Dag said about how ponies themselves treated the Booshwullies and Badger-kin.

Wow... four weeks to remember to answer this. Trucking is eating (what's left of) my brain. Yes, I am a Farker... but not Totally.
Hey, don't forget her awesome Boobies!
7479196
Don’t forget Vinyl casting Haste. She’s either a bullshit Wizard or Sorcerer, can’t tell, but damn is she the party utility.
Also, Maud is just a 20 Str Artificer. Change My Mind.
