Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 Rose jumping knocked Mint in the chin, and he groaned in pain. "Hey!" http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 Rose squeaked as she felt her head hit a pony, and she quietly whispered, "Sorry.." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 "It's fine..." Mint whispered. Mint Green could just barely make out the mare next to him, only seeing a glimpses of her hair at times. He focused on the sound of the rain smacking against the doors instead. http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 Rose truly wanted to cry. Once she heard the rain start to fall on the outside, she realized fully on what was soon going to happen. She was surely going to die. She softly started to cry, trying her best not to make it obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 Mint could just barely make out the soft cries of Rose. He felt a pang of sadness in his heart. Oh Celestia, just let us arrive already... http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 As Rose cried, she felt the train come to a sudden stop, causing her to fumble over once more. Her tears hit Mint, causing his coat to get wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 Mint simply let the tears stay; he certainly was going to get soaked in this rain shower. The doors burst open, blinding the stallions with light. An officer barked at them. "Drop your bag at the barracks and meet in the front yard immediately!" Mint noticed the camp was separated by gender with a fence. He looked at Rose. "Uh, hey, come with me. I'll find someone to get you transferred over there..." http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 Rose lookeed up at the stallion she was near, but it turned out to be a colt! She just stared up at him and nodded her head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 "Okay then, follow me." His words weren't necessary though, as it was essentially a river of bodies, old and young. Light, soft explosions could be heard now and then, a sign of gunpowder being used off in the distance. He looked at the shivering mare beside him and sighed, hoping the war would end before they had to fight, as unrealistic as that was. http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 Rose stared at the chaos that was the boot camp. Ponies were everywhere, either wounded are alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 The only officials around were a few guards, and they were unwilling to speak to Mint. "C'mon, just drop your bags off at the barracks and we'll find someone..." He pulled Rose along, awkwardly holding one of her hooves. http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 Rose blushed as she felt her hoof begind lifted my Mint, and she was holding his hoof. She slowly followed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 The barracks were trashy and crowded, with dozens of bunks shoved into one tiny building. There was very little, if any, space between the beds, and most of them were bunks, though the Royal guard was telling people that it was two per individual bed. Horrible, horrible conditions. After putting his stuff with Rose's, Mint Green pushed her along. "Right then, time to find someone in charge." http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 The first officer Mint caught look of was a griffon general. He pulled Rose along, and the General glared at him. "Uh, Sir, she's in the wrong ca-" "C'veit na na Equestrioania pos vew?" The Griffon didn't speak Equestrian... Mint sighed, walking away from him. "We'll find someone else. Anyway, it's your name?" http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 Rose giggled softly as Mint made a fool of himself. She decided not to say anything about it and continued to walk with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 Mint saw yet another officer, a grimy elderly earth pony. Mint tried to approach the man but the Royal Guards pushed him out of the way. "Both of you! Into lineup now!" Looking to his right, Mint noticed that almost all of the newbies had gotten into a messy formation. He pulled Rose along. "C'mon, before someone notices!" http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 Rose nodded and quickly went a long with him into formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finesthour 7,287 January 22, 2012 Author Share January 22, 2012 (You seem to like it xD) The drill instructor stared at the new batch of recruits and laughed. "You maggots are the sorriest digrace for ponies I have ever seen!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizz. 1,078 January 22, 2012 Share January 22, 2012 Mint simply stared forward, ignoring the man. Just as the drill instructor was about to spew another line of insults, the griffon officer stepped forward. "ATTENTION!" All the ponies snapped forward a salute, and Mint did his half hearted, annoyed at the general being able to speak Equestrian. "Wecome to the fabulous Equestrian Army. I've heard a lot of yapper coming from ponies all day as they're being shipped in, pegasi complaining why they're not in the air force and unicorns why they're not in the magic force. It's simply: We need grunts! If we wanted Air Force we'd get air force, not pick up some kids from the wild west to fly with the greatest. So you're gonna learn how to fight like GRUNTS. You hear? You're serving Celestia and Luna well." http://alt="img-3411728-1-kQpW0ME.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
