In the Hoofagon Boss Hogg was looking over some papers there was some recruits with high records.

"So in a short time there is 8" Boss Hogg spoke, he turned to an officer "lets meet these recruits at the training camp" he spoke walking out.

"yes sir" the mare said.

Later they arrived at a camp with soldiers running around, learning tactics when a Team training and Captain came up to Boss hogg "I got you what I could get at a short notice, if you told me a head of time then I would've got more but this Stallions will do their job" he spoke. Some well conditioned stallions were arriving ready for anything.

"And I got a ace with actually paws that can grab" the stallion spoke and a helicopter landed and a Diamond Dog landed the dog had a red vest and spiky hair and green eyes.

"Rover a perfect record with no mistakes" the Stallion told Boss Hogg.

"Thanks" boss Hogg said

"Glad I could assist" the Stallion said.

later a huge carrier army like airship with wings at the sides and thrusters, the ship took off heading to Rio

On board the ship the female officer was giving out instructions, she gave a picture of Spike to them which they past it along.

"This is the image of your target, the darts are made of stern metal but make sure you get him when he leasts expects it, real bullets are for emergency's" the mare said.

One soldier touched a tip it was very sturdy and seemed strong "why so tough metal?" The soldier asked.

"because this one's hide is twice as strong as a normal dragon's" Boss Hogg told him.

"Anyway" The mare spoke up "The darts are filled with horse tranquilizers strong enough to drop an elephant at an instant" The mare said, Rover who was dressed in a combat uniform and headphones looking at Spike's picture.

"Is he a fighter?" Rover asked, Boss Hogg looked at him.

"Your target is a fugitive from Equestria that kept military secrets from the army, and he is involved in the deaths of thousands of ponies and other creatures" Boss Hogg told him, he thought to make the soldiers even more scared of him and do their job because he didn't tell them that they were after a dragon "He is a former soldier, soldier that turned into a lone warrior a warrior so fierce and ferocious that armies would retreat in horror at the mention of his name, so don't wait to see he's a fighter, tranquilize him and bring him back" he said.

an hour later the airship was almost in Rio you could see lights from the distance


In Ponyville a meeting was being held

"So Spike is alive and is tearing Equestria apart?" Rainbow Dash asked "That sounds nuts, he wouldn't just go off and tear a place apart unless he had to" she said.

"I know but we have to contain him and find out whats wrong" Celestia explained "The army is searching for him but are not having luck for months and I was going to armor up and take some guards and help out" she said.

"Bad idea" Fluttershy said nervously.

"Yeah he will see that as a threat" Twilight Sparkle said "And what of Starlight and Thorax if they find out about this?" she asked.

"Oh yeah they will not take it lightly" Rarity pipped in.

"Why do ya think they Ain't here?" Applejack told her.

"If they side with him they will be fugitives" Celestia spoke "and they might get cut up in between this mess" she told them.

"Like that will stop them" Rainbow Dash said.

"Yup those three are the best of friends" Pinkie Pie spoke.

"Why do we have to do this, were in a loop first when he was Captain Drake you spent your time trying to capture him when he disappeared you thought he was dead you setted up a good reputation for him but now he's back you want to capture him again, make up your mind, if you don't mind?" Fluttershy spoke "and if you decide to do this then you will have to do this without me" she said walking out.
