I'm going to keep the oc submission open to see if I can't fit in some more ocs. And that goes for the ocs already submitted. They may get a role later on in the story. Oh and one shout out. Cinder fan: you didn't add the rank you wanted your oc to be so I made him a warrant officer. Enjoy
After Silent Wind had landed at the building that held the multiple briefing rooms; he walked through the halls finding the room labeled 'briefing room three, in use'. Wind let out a sighed before straightening his neck and pushing open the door. Inside he saw a table with three ponies all wearing legion body armor sitting at the table having a heated conversation about who had won the bet at the shooting range early that day.
Silent Wind quietly walked over to the head of the table and unstrapped his fifty caliber rifle and his BAR leaning them against the table. He watched the three ponies arguing and looked closely at the patches on their legs. He saw that there was Master sergeant, a Corporal, and a Warrant officer.
Silent Wind brought his attention away from the three ponies as three file folders were thrown in front of him. He looked to his side and swathe Major General standing by his side.
"Only three?" Wind said looking back at the three ponies who had now quieted down and were saluting the Major General and Silent Wind.
"At ease." the Major General said, "Captain, three is all you need. Three spies managed to get in by themselves; you should be able to do the same with a four pony team. Besides if you do need reinforcements we have soldiers waiting to come to you."
Silent Wind grunted and stared at the three ponies who stared back," names..." He said quickly.
"Excuse me sir?" one of the three ponies asked.
"Names, what are your names?" Silent Wind ordered," You, Corporal, what's your name?"
The Corporal stood up making his m14 rifle's ACOG scope clanged against his body armor the bipod was folded tightly against the barrel of the gun and the drum mag and suppressor made the gun look like something from out of this world, he also had what looked like a box on his other side," Corporal Vintage Scripture."
" And you two?" Wind shifted his attention to the other two ponies. One of them stood up, Silent Wind took note that he was a Pegasus. He had a gold mane too which slightly took the military type look away from him. His M16A4 was strapped tightly to his side and had a gold plated S&W 500 magnum which looked like it had some engravings on it. He lastly had a machete laying on his back.
"Master sergeant Moon Blaze." The Pegasus answered.
"Do you need a special invitation?" Wind asked the final pony who was still sitting.
"Nah I'm not that special." the pony said slowly standing up. He sling his 1903 Springfield rifle over his back accidentally making it collided with his commando assault rifle with a reflex scope, the CZ-75 pistol he wore strapped around his leg glowed slightly in the bright lights of the briefing room," Warrant Officer Night Guardian, but everypony calls me Kill Streak."
The Major general looked at Silent Wind," take it easy with these ones."
" Id they follow my orders then everything will go easy." Wind said standing up," My name is Captain Silent Wind and you will address me as such. I have one rule, follow my orders or I'll shoot you myself. I will not tolerate disobedience. Is that understood!?"
" Sir!" the three of them yelled out in union standing at full attention.
Wind slid the three files the Major General had given him over to the ponies," in those files you will find the details of our mission."
The three ponies sat down and opened the files. They scrolled through the papers and gazed at the pictures.
"As of today I was informed that our only three spies in Celestia's army have been captured. I was approached by the Major General and was ordered to take the three of you to infiltrate the army, get the spies out, and take their positions."
" What about Celestia? I'm pretty sure she had a reason to check her army." Moon Blaze asked.
"We believe her mental state has turned for the worse. That's part of our mission, to watch Celestia to see if she is indeed slipping into insanity." Wind answered.
Kill Streak leaned back and smiled," I'm liking this mission so far."
Wind eyed Kill Streak and then turned around whispering to the Major General," Are you sure these ponies are qualified for a mission like this?"
" Positive." the Major General replied.
"When do we leave?" Vintage Scripture asked.
"Tomorrow at 0600 hours." the Major General answered," for now go home, gather your supplies, and rest. Dismissed."
All three ponies gathered their folders that contained the mission briefing and walked out of the briefing room leaving Silent Wind standing next to the Major General.
"I don't like it." Wind stated softly.
"don't like what captain?"
"A four pony team infiltration the royal guard army and rescuing three spies. Doesn't seem very likely."
" If you need more then radio back here when you get there, for now just trust me and your team."
" yeah sure, last time I trusted my team they all died leaving me a disgrace and having their faces forever etched into my memory."
" Silent Wind, that mortar shell could've hit anywhere."
" yes, but I made the decision to climb out of the trench, I basically ordered those soldiers to their deaths. Sorry sir but I can't trust my team...not yet." And with that Silent Wind grabbed his weapons and walked out of the building flying back up to his mansion to wait for the upcoming mission.
He landed on the doorstep and quickly walked through the hallway trying not to look at the portraits, he walked upstairs and into his private office. He laid his guns on a table and threw the Bowie knife into the wall and then sat down at the desk. He took out a notebook and took up a pen.
'October sixteenth
I've been assigned a team again. I'm not sure if I can handle this one, not sure if I can even handle another teammate dying. I don't trust that night guardian especially. Seems way too excited about this mission. Vintage Scripture seems to me that he doesn't like me or Moon Blaze. Maybe it has to do with our species? I think Moon Blaze is the only I can trust right now but that pushing my trust. This mission is going to be a bitch.'
Silent Wind leaned back and looked at the small paragraph he flipped through the pages seeing all the other entries he made. As he sighed he set the book down and walked out of the room picking his guns up. He walked up to the roof and sitting on the edge began to clean the rifle and old assault rifle.
"Can't wait till I retire..." Silent Wind said to himself as he gazed down t the legion base as he cleaned his guns.
Author notes: yes this is kinda short but trust me when we get to the actual mission chapters they will be longer. Don't forget to review and keep them ocs coming. See yall soon
