The Plan

View Online

One morning before dawn at the ERS headquarters, several years after committing to the Christian Fleet...

Neighsay sat at his desk, frustrated by the new regulations he had to follow. Satan had killed his comrades, and he had survived. The ERS could not do its duty anymore, and he was ticked off.

" WHAT IN THE WORLD AM I SUPPOSED TO DO??", he yelled at himself. "I am being watched and I hate having to care about saving and helping .... NON-PONIES!!!"

He angrily sulked as his empty base, once the nexus of all rescues in Equestria, collected dust around him. He had to ration his food because he did not have enough money to add to the pantry and fridge. He soon ran out of food after only a month of rationing. He then remembered that they had a safe for storing emergency money. He used it to buy more food, and supplies for getting his full, final, strong REVENGE!! He had, however, forgotten about the probe that Brandon had put in him. That probe could tell the fleet that something was up. He began to set plans for pouring his wrath on Twilight and her "dangerous students" as he called them

Call of Concern

View Online

Twilight was about to close the school for the night when her office phone rang. The display said: "Priority 1 call, Crystal Empire". Twilight knew that if a call was priority one, it was extremely important. Without hesitating, she put on the headset, and pressed "TALK".

"Hello, this is Twilight Sparkle.", she answered.

"Aunt Twilight, this is Flurry Heart. I noticed something strange on one of the screens that Mom uses for monitoring vital signs on those of us in the fleet. Something is up with Neighsay's brain waves. Captain Brandon is on his way to you with me on his helicopter. See you in the morning.", said her niece, who had just recently been recruited to the Christian Fleet.

The next morning, Twilight heard Brandon's helicopter touching down, and opened the door so they could come in to stay out of the rain that was coming. They had looks of worry on their faces and Flurry carried a device that was synced to the Lemurian Star's monitors on the crew and allies.

"Gee whiz!!", yelped Twilight when she looked at the monitor, "His stats are off the charts."

"You said it Twilight, I am nervous that he might be up to something.", replied Brandon, "Celestia has given me the coordinates for the ERS HQ. Colin and I will be headed there to figure out what he is doing. Cadence told Flurry Heart that she could stay with you over the weekend, but we have also asked her to cover us when we go in the base."

Brandon and Colin began to gear up for their cautious trip to the inoperative ERS headquaters, not knowing what they would find.

Searching the place

Upon arrival at the coordinates, Colin and Brandon deployed the dragger and snow slides on their plane. This was due to the fact that they had to land on slick mud, rather than a runway. They spotted a metal tube, sticking from the mountain in which the base was constructed. The text printed on the tube, indicated that it was utilized for shooting special missiles, for countering an avalanche, or to fire co2 missiles to put out a fire.

"Do you suspect he is inside, Captain?", Colin asked.

"I think so, and I have a bad feeling about this.", Brandon replied, as they went inside.

They looked through the dimly lit corridors of the long unused facility, searching for Neighsay, and anything he may have been using. Soon they found him eating breakfast, and ordered him to explain why his vitals were going pitter-patter. Flurry Heart was on standby outside to assist them if needed. Neighsay just snarled, kicked them down, and took off towards the control room. They followed him and discovered his plan. He was going to aim a super-powerful long-range missile at the School of Friendship, and attempt to kill Twilight, along with the Young Six, Starlight, and the rest of the friends.

Evacuation, Notification and Interrogation

"Link, this is a CODE RED!!", Brandon said over his radio headset. "Neighsay is trying to destroy the school with a missile, killing Twilight and the others in the process."

"Roger that, Brandon. I will notify Celestia to come to your coordinates, and I will tell Twilight to evacuate the school ASAP. You and Colin need to get Neighsay restrained so he can be interrogated.", Link answered.

Brandon pulled out his phaser, and shot Neighsay, stunning him. Unfortunately, Neighsay fell on the controls. The missile became armed and active. Alarms sounded and the countdown began.

"Celestia, this is Link. Neighsay is at these coordinates, trying to shoot the Friendship School to the ground with a missile. You need to interrogate him and possibly put him in jail for life.", Link said frantically, to Celestia.

"Attention all students and staff, we need to evacuate NOW!!! The school is at the risk of being struck by a missile.", Twilight said over the school's PA, as the air raid sirens began to blare loudly.

Meanwhile, Brandon put on a bomb resistant suit, and wrote a code to destroy the missile, mid-flight. He was able to put the card in place when the countdown was two seconds from zero. The missile flew from the pad, and Brandon fell to the floor of the chamber. Neighsay woke up, locked in energy chains, and was about to protest when Celestia stormed into the room.

"HOW DARE YOU ATTEMPT TO KILL MY STAR STUDENT BY SHOOTING A MISSILE AT HER SCHOOL!!", Celestia screamed with burning hot rage.

"WHAT IN EQUESTRIA DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?", Colin shouted.

Neighsay did not answer, he just snarled at Colin, yanked one of his hooves free, and slapped Colin across the face, breaking his glasses, and giving him a nosebleed. Brandon gasped, threw the helmet off of his suit, onto a nearby couch, then he activated an energy whip.

"THAT'S IT NEIGHSAY, YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!! TAKE HIM TO THE COURT, CELESTIA!!", Brandon yelled as he struck Neighsay with his whip.

COURT

After Neighsay was chained in the chair, Brandon put a suppressor on his horn to keep him from using his magic. He then joined the jury with his shipmates, and Celestia brought order with the gavel.

"NEIGHSAY, YOU ARE CHARGED WITH MULTIPLE COUNTS OF ATTEMPTED PREMEDITATED MURDER!", yelled Luna as she approached him sternly. "WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO SAY FOR YOURSELF?"

"DON'T YOU GET IT? THAT SCHOOL IS ILLEGAL, AND SHOULD NOT EXIST, PERIOD!!", Neighsay shouted at everyone.

"Do you mean that you were masking your displeasure when the six of us rolled out the red carpet for you?", Ocellus asked, disgustedly.

"YOU COULD HAVE KILLED ONE OF MY FORMER FRIENDS, YOU ARSONIST!!", Gilda spat at him as she pointed to Rainbow Dash.

"SHE IS RIGHT!!", Rainbow shot back.

"YOU ARE ORDERED TO CONFESS, NOW!",shouted Celestia.

*sigh* "Fine.", Neighsay said. Turning to Twilight, he said, "I was in deep depression because that nasty demon, Satan killed my comrades and I could not get rid of the anger. Then, I forgot about that, and focused on the fact that I was still angry from when you reopened your school without my authorization. I do not know why, but I felt the nastiest way to exact my revenge, was to kill you." "I plead guilty, Your Highness.", he said to Celestia.

"I sentence you to 5 months in jail.", said Celestia.

Neighsay was relieved that he would only be locked for five months instead of life. He followed the guards to his cell and allowed the guards to shut him inside, but then he began to have head pain. The guards did not know this until 3 weeks later. They would be shocked at their find.
