  1. @@The Pixelated Pony, Keeping her hoof around Fire's shoulder, Redwood said, "Y'know, back when ah was nineteen and just made it to Ranger, mah until got ambushed by raiders. We had to hole up in a ruined building, and th' fightin' lasted fer two hours until th' raiders figured we weren't worth it. Ah took two bullets in th' leg and was stuck in that building, and ah had to watch while th' ponies in mah unit who weren't already dead bleed out."
  2. @@The Pixelated Pony, Fire was a wreck, so Redwood put her hoof around his shoulder. "Listen, this probably ain't th' first time y'all lost somepony, and ah can almost guarantee it ain't gonna be th' last." She then took a set of dog tags from her coat that belonged to Jenny and handed them to Fire.
  3. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Ah'm dealin' with him right now," she said, pointing under the bed. "Yer dismissed." Redwood then turned her attention Fire and said, "Y'all were wounded and outta commission, there wasn't anythin' y'all could've done to help Jenny. It's a hard pill to swallow, but it's somethin' y'all just gotta accept."
  4. @@The Pixelated Pony, Redwood followed Fire back into his room and bent down so she could talk to him. "Fire, ah've been down th' road yer on right now, and listen to me: it ain't yer fault that she died and it shouldn't have been y'all in her place. Jenny knew th' risks, and she died fightin' fer somethin' important."
  5. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Th' op was successful fer th' most part though. We got rid of th' outpost, and our casualties were minor enough. Sierra made it out unscathed, we lost two from Delta, and one from Echo. Fillin' a spot on Delta is easy enough, but ah'm gonna have to do some searchin' fer somepony to fill th' spot on Echo."
  6. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Yeah, y'all might wanna wash yerself off," said Redwood. She had to admit that Fire had fought bravely, and he did a much better job than anypony would have expected, especially Knifepoint. It was looking like Redwood didn't make a mistake in transferring him after all.
  7. @@Dapper Charmer, @@reader8363, Redwood kissed Hooligan on the cheek and chuckled a bit at how fast things had gone. "Ah guess we both work pretty fast." It was admirable of Hooligan that he didn't run and hide at the news that she was pregnant, and he even went so far as to propose to her.
  8. @@Gamer_KM, @, Redwood slowly approached the car with her shotgun drawn, but before she could reach it something else caught her attention. The area right next to the road was flooded, and Redwood could hear a low growl coming from the water. She looked over and saw a pair of eyes that clearly belonged to animal, and a big one at that. Without hesitation she took off sprinting in the other direction. "Gizmo, get yer ass in gear!" yelled Redwood. A massive alligator nearly the size of a bus erupted from the water, and it was hungry. It easily shoved aside the car that Allegory was hiding behind, and opened its mouth to reveal a menacing set of jagged teeth.
  9. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Y'all took a couple bullets and ah had to carry y'all back here," said Redwood. "Oh, by th' way, th' doc said that y'all should take a couple of these, and yer horn should grow back by tomorrow mornin'." She handed Fire a small unmarked bottle of pills from her coat.
  10. @@The Pixelated Pony, Sierra Squad regrouped with Echo Squad and Delta Squad, and they began the hike back to the ship. Fire had done a much better job than Redwood thought he would, and Knifepoint was even more surprised. The whole way back, Redwood carried Fire on her back.
  11. @@The Pixelated Pony, Redwood picked up Fire and said, "Everypony, retreat out th' back entrance! Sierra's coverin' our exit!" Echo Squad and Delta Squad began their retreat from the outpost, making it out safety through the back thanks to Sierra Squad. Once they were a safe distance away, Redwood gave an order to Sierra through her radio, and just a few seconds after, the outpost went up in flames.
  12. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Fire, can y'all box in th' last of th' Milita troops in one place?" said Redwood, still firing at the onslaught of soldiers. Echo Squad and Delta Squad could only last so long, and they needed to retreat soon. Luckily, even if they weren't able to clear out the outpost like this, Redwood had a plan in place.
  13. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Get a medic on Fire," ordered Redwood without looking away from the Militia soldier she was shooting. Echo Squad's medic got Fire behind cover and began to tend to his wounds. "That's probably gonna grow back," he said as he looked at his horn. "Sierra, how's our exit lookin'?" said Redwood into her radio. "Better do it quick before reinforcements get here," ca,e the response.
  14. @@The Pixelated Pony, The rest of Echo Squad quickly regrouped with Redwood, giving her and Fire's team some much needed backup. They still didn't have many options besides stand and fight though, so that was what Redwood planned on doing. They were here to clear out the outpost after all, and it seemed like most of the Militia troops were on their position.
  15. @@The Pixelated Pony, The ball of fire didn't go unnoticed, and the outpost had been alerted soon after the sniper had been incinerated. Redwood and her team were the first to come under fire, as the Militia would of course target the leader of the Gator Teeth. "This is commander Redwood, we're pinned down on th' first floor," she said into her radio before fighting off their attackers with the rest of her team.
  16. @@The Pixelated Pony, Redwood was glad to see that Fire was on top of things. From how he had acted before, she figured that he would end up being more of liability, but she was glad that she was proven wrong. Apparently he was capable when the situation demanded it, and to Redwood, that was what was important.
  17. @@The Pixelated Pony, Redwood and her team made quick work of three other rooms, and after rounding a corner, ran into Fire's group. So far, the op had been running smoothly, and Knifepoint was a bit surprised that she hadn't heard the sounds of Fire getting himself killed yet.
  18. @@The Pixelated Pony, Redwood and the two other Echo Squad troops squared up outside of a door. At Redwood's command, one of them opened the door, allowing her and the other troop to quickly dispose of the occupants. The second Echo Squad troop noticed a guard coming and hid inside the room, pulling the guard in for the kill when he passed.
  19. @@The Pixelated Pony, Once they had all climbed up the stairs, the entire group was in the basement of the outpost, which served as storage. "Teams of three, fan out and clear th' outpost," said Redwood. Upon her command, two other Echo Squad troops grouped up with her, and the rest of them grouped up like she had ordered.
  20. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Quit th' chatter," ordered Redwood. The pipe was dark, but at least it was empty. Eventually, they reached a ladder covered at the top by another grate, and Redwood gestured for one of Echo Squad to head up there. The Echo Squad member compiled quickly, and after barely a minute up there, a Militia body fell from up top along with an all clear sign.
  21. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Rookie, what did the commander say about teleportation?" said Knifepoint as she took the drawing. Redwood reached the drainage pipe first and, herself and Echo Squad took cover on either side of the pipe's opening. She nodded at the soldier across from her, who opened the grate, allowing everypony else to file in.
  22. @@The Pixelated Pony, Redwood pressed a button on her radio and said, "Any alternate routes?" A reply came a few minutes later. "Affirmative. There's a drainage pipe just a hundered meters west." "Copy, Sierra, cover our entry and exit," she said. Redwood nodded to the rest of Delta and Echo, then got up and began heading in the direction of the drainage pipe.
  23. @@The Pixelated Pony, Redwood's radio finally crackled to life. "This is Sierra Squad, reporting in. We have a mine field, twelve hostiles, and two turrets guarding the front, ten hostiles and a Mr. Gutsy in back. Unknown number in interior, suspected to be over twenty five. Recommend using swamp for entry in back."
  24. @@The Pixelated Pony, Knifepoint took the picture and gave Fire a confused look, but kept on walking. She had watched everything, and she could tell that Fire had a thing for Redwood. After two hours of hiking, Redwood looked back at everyone and said, "We're half a klick out. Sierra Squad, take point and radio back. Everypony else, hold position." The leader of Sierra Squad nodded and they went ahead of the rest of the group.
  25. @@The Pixelated Pony, "Fire, this is a combat operation. If y'all wanna sketch away in yer quarters durin' downtime, go ahead, but right now, there's a task at hoof. Y'all gotta be on yer guard at all times fer yer own safety, th' safety of yer fellow ponies, and th' success of th' operation. Do ah make mahself clear?"
