Samiel trots across the base's perimeter; a third of a kilometer
away, a set of train tracks cuts through the sandy dunes. What
made things worse was what he saw on the far horizon. A
sandstorm, plumes of dust rising into the air like a tidal wave.
"Damn it, that storm will be on us like the devil. How are the
gun placements?"
"All loaded, sir!" One of the soldiers shouts.
The stallion nods, "Good, everyone stay strong and clear. The
Daggers think they can do what they want! We shall show them
what a united nation can do against scum like them!" A roar of
applause and hoof stomps follow as he continues to a forward
tent. A radio operator adjusts some dials before turning to the
Pegasus. Samiel nods, leaves the trooper to his work, and
examines the reports from his scouts. "Alright... armored train,
several mobile units, a bomber and several fighters escorting
it. This has to be a hit and run. All we have to do is bog them
down. How are our visitors?"
"Lina and Lima are on their way to the solitary confinement.
Bravo and Zulu are being taken back to their cells. We-" the
operator pauses, listening in to the new reports coming in.
"They're coming! Train smoke in sight and planes are spotted!"
"Scramble the interceptors! Zero the guns on the train and-" A
loud pop goes off, his troops shouting of a sniper nearby.
Various small fire erupts as a second group of Hidden Daggers
approach from the west. "Guns on the train! Someone take that
sniper out and everyone hold their positions!" Samuel rushes out
into the field, picking up an SMLE III bolt action rifle. Things
are gonna get messy, hopefully it'll all be worth it.

By the time Lima and Lina were outside, things were escalating.
The rattle of gunfire echoes in the distance as a jeep pulls up
next to them. One of Samiel's guards motions them in. Lima nods
and pulls out her C96 pistol. "Here's our ride, we'll speed over
there in the car." She hurries over, too preoccupied to hear a
feint whistle in the air, and getting louder. The Pegasus looks
over to her companion as she trots closer to the vehicle. "From
there, we'll find Yankee, and fini-"
*BOOM!*
The former agent flies back as the car explodes from the
impacting mortar shell, leaving a smoking crater behind. She
lands hard with a thud and is spotted with embers and smoke
stains. Her goggles slip off and land a hoof's reach away on the
ground. Lima slowly but surely starts to move, her wings
certainly missing a few feathers.

Lina trailed after Lima, ears perking up as she listened to the
gunfire. She froze in place when she heard a quiet whistle.
Something about the sound screamed danger, but Lina wasn't sure
what. Before she could ask Lima, however, the car they were
approaching exploded.
The force flung Lina off her hooves and onto the ground. Being a
little closer to the car, Lima got the worst of it. Even so,
Lina hit her head hard and bit back a gasp of pain as she saw
stars. She lifted her head towards Lima and blinked in confusion
before she realized she was seeing double. She didn't wait for
her vision to clear, instead pulling herself up. "Lima?" She
called out worriedly, and zigzagged unsteadily towards the other
mare. She reached her and swayed in place as she asked, "Lima,
are you alright?"

A loud ringing goes off in Lima's ears as her vision blurs and
wobbles. "Oh... fu...dge." The mare slowly but surely begins to
move, looking around herself to find any serious injuries.
Nothing, fortunately; although she knew for a fact that she
won't be able to get out of bed tomorrow. "I... I'm good, I'm
fine." Finally on her hooves, she looks around as more whistles
streak through the air. "We- we gotta go Lina!"
*BOOM!*
Another crater forms right at the spot they stood, sending dust
and smoke towards the two pegasi. Lima coughs through the fog
and flaps her wings, sending most of it way. Thankfully, she
spots a glimmer amid the sands. "Over there!" She points to a
motorbike with a passenger cart next to it. The agent tries to
race towards it, but her dizziness keeps her at a brisk walk. By
now the sound of combat has engulfed the base, soon, it will be
drowned out by the real storm.

Lina's vision started to stabilize just as she was forced to
close her eyes against the smoke. She opened them to see Lima
pointing. "Okay," Lina agreed in a strained voice from the
inhaled dust. Her gait a bit more stable now, she set off at a
gallop. She quickly skidded to a stop when she saw she had
passed Lima. "Lima, come on!" She called out, her tone frantic.
She looked at the bike, then back, quashing her instincts to
race over and leave Lima in the dust.

"Damn it Lina, I'm coming!" Lima shouts out as she picks up her
pace. Once she gets to the bike she immediately kicks off the
side basket. "That'll slow us down!" The mare hops in and revs
the engine. "Just hop on the back seat, and get your weapons
ready." The Pegasus pulls down her goggles, protecting her eyes.
This was it, the final confrontation. It won't be easy. With the
assault at hoof they had to make every second count. Distant
mortar fire is temporarily drowned out by a defying roar, the
horn to the armored train that just arrived at the front line.
Further away, the storm barrels across the barren landscape,
ready to unleash the full force of nature upon them.

Lina did as Lima said, hopping on behind the other mare, her
adrenaline up to the point that she barely noticed she was on
yet another of those blasted, dangerous machines. She lightly
rested one hoof on her firearm. Noise assaulted her ears on all
sides, and her heart pounded. She took a deep breath before she
gritted her teeth and muttered, "Let's go."
The bike jumped into motion as the two mares zipped towards
their destination. Towards vengeance for one, towards
information for the other.
And towards the fight that might end both of them.
