    Lucky looked at Shutter from behind his cover with an expression that yelled 'Um, what?'

    "Shutter, did you just ask if anypony has a grenade in a group that's basically being led by Starry? I'd clap you in the back of the head if I didn't run the risk of getting shot in the process."

    He leaned back and grasped the bit to his makeshift battle saddle.

    "As it is, I would suggest ordnance here too. Starry?"

    Starry grinned widely. She three frag grenades, but she had no intention of using those as a distraction. She lifted up the missile launcher, and loaded it. "Are you ponies ready for this?"

    She turned the corner, and immediately fired the launcher at one of the slavers behind cover. "GO! NOW!" she shouted. Starry was feeling pretty confident, given that she was still lumbering about in the metal armor and helmet. She was pretty certain a few stray shots we're going to hurt her too badly.

    Ashen stumbled into cover as the group spotted the slavers, pain racing up his wounded legs causing him to wince. He mostly ignored it, however, his mind focusing on processing the situation and coming up with options.

    They had two points of entry, the alley way that led around the barricades, and through the assault-rifle wielding slavers. And because of the crossfire they had on the open area to the alley, they'd have to deal with the slavers regardless.

    He turned to one of the others, Shutter, as he suggested using grenades, and another, Lucky Draw, as he pointed out that the blue unicorn, Starry Night, always had some.

    "If the guards are distracted by the grenades, some of us may be able to gallop across the street and get behind the barricades." he noted. "I suggest the fastest of us get ready to do just that."

    And then Starry fired a rocket at slavers, yelling at the others to run. He swiftly did so, ignoring the pain in his legs as he rapidly hobbled across the street, hopefully making it to the other side in time.

    "...Yeah, that'll work..."

    Shutter mumbled, as he watched Starry lift her Missile Launcher and fire it at the Slavers. Quickly, not wasting a beat, he shot into a gallop for the other side of the street, aiming for the alleyway that would lead them to the other side of the barricade.

    "Come on, come on, come on..."
    He muttered to himself through gritted teeth, expecting a bullet to penetrate his skin at any moment.

    Trails grunted with pain and vomited all over the ground after bouncing a few times. "Fuck you Cross." He growled, not a doubt in his mind about who sent him flying. His head was in more than a fog now, if anything he was submerged in an ocean. That's when an old and familiar voice popped into his head.

    "Get the fuck up kid." the voice shouted.

    "H?" Trails mumbled.

    "Dammit get the fuck up and show them who the fuck they're messing with."

    "No, you're...what?"

    "Luna's sake, you weren't this slow back then." the voice was still shouting but now had an exasperated twist to it. "Grab your gun and give them hell like I taught you. You're not just some stable pony waiting to get plucked up by some raider and impaled on your own stupidity." the voice paused for a second. "Now do me proud."

    "Yessir." Trails smiled a crooked grin and slumped to his hooves.

    His vision cleared up again, time to party. He unslung his repeater and fired a few shots from the hip at the dug in unicorn on the left. As soon as his last shot was off he went sprinting for a crater, keeping a serpentine pattern.

    "Howdy Starry!" he called as he went.

    Lightning followed the group as they ran back to the town. He knew they were closing in on the mayor's location as his Pipbuck was locked on to him. He had a little limp in his gait but he still was able to keep up with the group. When the gunshot ran out, Lightning dived behind cover just like everypony else, his SMG drawn and ready in his mouth.

    Looking at the others, he would have said something but having a weapon in his mouth kinda prevented that. When Starry fired off the rocket at the slavers, Lightning waited and allowed some of the others to go first before taking off and flying about five feet off the ground, zooming across the street as fast as he could and praying that Starry had them covered.

    As soon as the missile flew, Lucky bolted for the building opposite the group, using the distraction to it's fullest. He immediately got behind the wall, checked his pipbuck to make sure he hadn't been shot and not realized it, and then called out to the rest of the group.

    The two slavers immediately let out a barrage of gunfire the moment Starry popped out from behind cover. Apparently, Starry had been wrong about her armor's protective properties. It certainly deflected most of the bullets, and softens the impact of those that did land, but she was very quickly pumped full of metal. One bullet barely pierced through her helmet, and had just barely tapped her skull. The other shots that hit pierced through her armor and dug into her coat, not deep enough to hit any vital organs, though. She had apparently succeeded at providing cover, though, as each of her allies escaped to the other side unscathed.

    One of the guards ran from the barricade as the missile raced toward it. He was barely fast enough, as the explosion tore the barricade apart. Hunks of metal soared through the air, one of them ripped the slaver's forehoof clean off at the knee, but thanks to the drugs, he maintained consciousness.

    The other guard had taken a few shots from Trails. Some missed, but one struck through his leather armor and pierced into his shoulder. He seemed rather unfazed, as he hastily reloaded his weapon(he had spent the clip on Starry) and turned to aim it at Trails.

    Shutter gave a glance back once he reached the other side, only to see Starry's armour fail to hold up as well as it should have against the Slaver's rifles.

    "STARRY! Hold on!"

    He yelled back, as he ripped his pistol from his side, and charged ahead, his only plan at the moment being to try and drop these Slaver quick, and get his best friend some medical attention!

    As he neared the side of the alleyway that lead behind the barricade, Shutter stopped and stuck to the wall, dropping into a stealthier stance as he crept the rest of the way...he didn't know if the Slaver's had heard him earlier, but he only had a pistol compaired to their rifles, and his best chance was if he could get the drop on them.
    Quickly, he reached the end of the wall, as he checked his gun, before popping around the side and aiming several shots at the closest Slaver!

    Trails took a deep breath to clear the fog that had collected at the edges of his vision. He took advantage of the slaver's reload to pop up and fire. Breath, exhale, and fire just like H always said. He cocked the lever and fired again two more times. Two for the chest and one for the head, just like old times.

    (plus 11 guns of 55)

    Standing still as the pain faded away, Ashen quickly glanced over the corner, spying the two slaver guards as they recovered from the missile, one aiming at a unknown assailant and the other getting back up from a severed knee. The drugs they've been pumping into themselves undoubtedly being what's keeping him conscious through the pain.

    Ashen suspected that the unicorn slaver would have a bit more trouble maintaining control over his gun in his state, and he also suspected that the slavers didn't practice their magic often. Ashen wasn't the best, but he was still fairly good with magic, and he's had practice with telekinesis.

    So, knowing this, Ashen reached out with his magic and grabbed onto the slaver's assault rifle, trying to tear it from his control and turn it on him, before opening fire at point blank.

    Lightning landed quickly when he reached the other side with a skid. He smirked thinking that he was still one of the fastest fliers around. His mind was snapped back to the battle at hand when he heard Shutter yell out Starry's name. Seeing him run down the alleyway, Lightning peaked around the street corner, seeing that Starry managed to blow up one of the barricades but she seemed to be hit also!

    Gritting his teeth, Lightning leaped out into the open and took to the skies. Hovering and aiming his gun down at the slaver that was still behind the other barricade, he unloaded the remaining half of his clip at his direction.

    Starry stumbled backwards, and concentrated on falling to the side, behind the cover of the corner of the building. She certainly wasn't expecting this. The slaver that had been wearing this armor didn't seem to take any damage when he got shot. Maybe that was just from all the drugs he was on.

    Starry had dropped her missile launcher out in the street, her magic fizzled when she was so heavily bombarded with gunfire. She could feel the loose armor sticking closely to her chest, adhered by a growing pool of blood. Luckily, Techno hadn't made the dash across the street. He was still taking cover behind the building with her.

    "Sorry, doc... more work for you... need patching up," Starry muttered wearily. She was losing a lot of blood.

    The slaver behind the barricade was suddenly bombarded with gunfire. Shutter had emerged from around the corner and had gotten several successful shots off, two of them managed to pierce through his armor and dig into his flesh. Trails, on the other hand, had landed a successful shot both in the chest and in the head. The blow to the head killed the slaver instantly, and he fell to the floor.

    The other slaver could feel Ashen tugging his gun from him. Ashen was hardly at the optimal distance for such an attempt, but it distracted the slaver long enough that Lightning Flash could aim and pierce him with a barrage of bullets, enough to cause him to drop his weapon and fall to the floor, dying.

    Trails jumped out of his foxhole and rand for Starry and the other ponies. She had taken a lot of flack, a lot more than Trails cared to see. He jumped over a half destroyed wall and skidded to a halt in front of Starry. He took a second to reload and then felt the grace period leave him. The ocean was back and he fell to his knees. Trails gasped for air and shook himself.

    "Don't let them see you break." H said in his ear, his old gravelly voice ringing.

    Trails swallowed and looked up at Starry and Techno. "Tech stay here with Starry. Everypony else get ready we're gonna take that bunker on my mark." He snapped into his old battle mode again, tunnel vision in full effect, and started barking out orders. "You, pegasus, get your ass back in the sky and give suppressive fire. Any pony who can shoot straight stick in the front with me. If you can't stick in back give us any assistance you can. If that means ammo, stims, or just dragging wounded out of the line of fire that's what you do. Oh and if you could give me a shot of chems to get rid of this concussion that'd be great Tech."

    Once both Slavers were either dead or dying, Shutter didn't hesitate, as he galloped forwards over them, through the wound in the barricade that Starry's Missile Launcher had caused, trying to get to his friend as soon as possible.

    Before long, he skidded to a stop back behind the cover they had used earlier, as he looked down at the Unicorn.

    As soon as he had finished his earlier sentence, Lucky's vision and hearing had blurred to an unimaginable level, and the resulting daze had caused him to miss most of the action that had just occurred. When his senses finally came back to him, there was chaos. Starry lay across the street, her blood smeared across the area she had presently been standing; one of the slaver's barricades was reduced to a burning crater in the street, and gunfire rang out across the battlefield.

    Lucky shook his head, and a feeling of unease fell upon him.

    Eight more slavers poured out of the bunker and took up position on the steps of the governor's office. They spaced out roughly 5 meters apart each to avoid multiple losses from lone grenades. They began firing on Trails, Starry, Techno, and Shutter's position. Alternating there fire, two on each side firing then the four who did not, to avoid a stop in fire due to reloads.

    Starry focused on her magic. Her horn glowed a faint dark blue, as she tried lifting another missile out of her saddlebag, her last missile. It took more concentration than she had, as she loaded it into the launcher.

    "Shutter, Trails," she greeted them as they approached. Her voice was raspy and weak, and there was a stream of blood dripping down her face from the head wound. "Hey, it's not that bad... I can still feel my hooves a little! They're so sticky, I wonder what that's all about?" She began coughing, and when it ceased, she took a more serious tone.

    "Techno, you've gotta patch me up quick. I still have one missile left, and I need to be able to fire it before I pass out. I can probably take one of them out."

    Athanix was galloping full tilt down the streets of Stableton as he finished patching up some straglers. He had some how kept his flank hidden the entire battle and was now looking out for some more ponies o possibly help out. As he rounded a corner, he noticed a certain gryphon with some funny looking wings. He also noticed a badly hurt dragon laying on his sides with a nasty look on his face.

    He tightened his bags and shifted his cloak as he spoke carefully.

    Techno nodded and levitated Starry further behind cover. He floated out a healing potion and a shot of Med-X. He practically threw the healing potion into her mouth and gave her the painkillers. "You know, I'm really starting to hate these guys..." he muttered as he patched Starry up as fast as he could. She had lost a lot of blood and had taken several shallow hits, but she'd live. "Alright, that should keep you conscious for now, now go ahead and blast 'em to Tartarus, Starry." he said as he aided her in getting up.

    Having done practically nothing for the duration of the battle, Techno decided now things would get serious. He floated out a shot of meds and gave the shot to Trails. "Alright, Trails, go give 'em what they deserve." he said, encouraging him to go shoot some slavers.

    Lightning smirked slightly as his rounds hit his mark and the slaver pony went down quickly. Flying down to the ground back into the alley, he released the SMG magazine and quickly loaded in a new one. 'One more clip left,' he thought to himself before peaking out and noticing that Starry was hit. "Oh, boy..." From what Lightning could see, Starry appeared to have taken a rather serious hit.

    As the new pony suddenly joined their group, he didn't recognize him but he nodded, "Don't have to tell me twice!" Unfolding his wings, Lightning leapt up into the air, climbing into the air vertically until he was about 50 or 60 feet above the earth.

    Lightning could see a squad of slavers coming out of the bunker they were attacking and he yelled down to the group below, "We got company!" Quickly zooming off to the left side of the bunker, he flipped around and started flying back in a dive. Aiming his SMG, he released about a fourth of his bullets in a short burst, hoping to pin them down and give the team time to move. And hey, maybe he'll even hit one.

    Lucky had moved to back up Shutter. The constant barrage kept him from firing back, and the anger was becoming visable on his face.

    After about a minute of endless bullets, Lucky's tolerance reached it's peak. He quickly retrieved his flask, drank deeply, replaced it, and then jumped directly out into the line of fire.

    He shot all five rounds in his magazine randomly at the slavers, his teeth grinding into the trigger bit as every bullet casing jumped from the side of his rifle.

    (rolling to fire five times at the slavers without aiming, +10 [Gun Skill])

    Trails let out a sigh of relief as the fog left his vision once and for all. He spun his gun by the lever and cocked it. He saw out of the corner of his eye as eight more slavers came running out and stopped in a staggered pattern on the steps. You smart sons of bitches.

    "Starry stay here." He said putting a hoof on her shoulder and forcing her to sit down, not letting an inch of give in his expression. "I can't have you getting hurt again, who knows if Tech could patch you up again. Besides splash damage and all that." He gave her a weak smile before turning to deal with the problem at hand.

    "Shutter take this." Trails yelled, tossing his shotgun and a couple boxes of ammo. "You stick behind me and to the right, we're doing an arrow head formation."

    At that moment Lucky decided to go into rock n' roll mode. Trails jumped up and pulled the buck back into cover by his mane. "Nice try hero, listen up." Trails thundered to be heard over the constant roar of gunfire. "You stay behind me and opposite of Shutter. Stay close and we should be able to do this with minimal trouble."

    "Ashen," Trails added for a moment of thought. "stick behind us and help Tech keep up the shield."

    "Give em hell kid." H's voice whispered faintly, it sounded like H was walking away. Part of Trails wanted to yell out and tell him to stop. But he learned a long time ago there was no point to it.

    With that Trails jumped out of cover and ran for the steps. He kept as low as he could, making the slaver's job harder and Techno's easier. He aimed for the closest slaver and fired off a few shots. Two chest one head, just like H always said.
