Mass Effect Alliance Ships
Chapter One - Wonderbolts to the Rescue June 3rd, 2170 C.E. Mindoir, Attican TraverseThe alarms blared through the ship, but Rainbow Prism had long since drowned them out. He had bigger issues to focus on.
Top of all of them being the fact that he was about to experience combat for the first time in his life. It was honestly something that he had prayed he would never see.Sure, the Wonderbolts had become a more functioning part of Equestria's military ever since the sphere had been cracked open almost twenty years ago, but they were still primarily stunt fliers. It just so happened that it was now policy to never leave the planet without their gear when touring, armor and weapons included.It was supposed to just be a simple trip. After so long dreaming, Prism had finally achieved his greatest dream in life. He was a Wonderbolt! There were only two moments that he held in higher regard. The first was his wedding day.
Seeing Firefly walking down the aisle in her dress. It still made his legs go wobbly. The second was the birth of his only daughter. All things considered, Prism was living the dream.At least he had thought he was, until mid-way through the flight to the Asari homeworld Thessia when the distress call had come through.' This is the colony planet, Mindoir. We are under attack by raiders.
Please, if anyone can hear this, we need help! Oh god, I hope someone is listening.' The message repeated, stuck on a loop. It was a complete miracle that they had even managed to pick it up.
The ship the Wonderbolts used to tour the planets was not state of the art. It had once served as a colony transport ship hauling around mid-sized freights to planets on the Traverse. It was cheap and in relatively good working order, which is why the Wonderbolts had purchased it. It was the perfect size to transport them to the few tours that they had begun to schedule across the galaxy.Prism shuffled his hooves, checking one last time that his battle harness was firmly attached around his barrel. The straps were tight, but not overly so, and the guns were in just the right place to not restrict his wings during flight. His coat itched under the light armor, but there was nothing he could do about it but grin and bear it.Glancing around the room, Prism looked over the Wonderbolts surrounding him. He was by far the newest of the team, having only recently graduated from the academy, but he was beginning to get to know who they all were and where he stood with them.
They were a generally fun-loving bunch who trained hard and partied harder. The pranks and games were a part of life, and smiles were the name of the game.Prism couldn't see any smiles on his teammates' faces. A heavy, solemn air had fallen on the converted cargo hold as the Wonderbolts trickled in from their rooms, dressed in their combat armor. They all stood in small groups, speaking in quiet whispers, anxious for the beginning of one of the first military actions they would ever undertake.' Please, someone, anyone! They're just shooting- Oh god, oh god! This is the colony planet Mindoir.
We're under attack-' the transmission cut off to static.' You all heard the same thing that I did!'
Commander Easyglider said as he stepped into the converted cargo hold. By sheer presence alone, everyone went silent as they waited for him to speak. He stood in front of the Wonderbolts, dressed in the same armor as the rest of them. He paced back and forth in front of them, and they all hung to his words with rapt attention. 'By all chances, we are the only ship close enough to respond.

I know you were all expecting an easy airshow on Thessia, but we're Wonderbolts, and by Celestia we can't just sit back and let a colony get destroyed! We are Wonderbolts, and we are the best that Equestria has to offer! Will we let Celestia down?' Prism found himself shouting along with the rest of the Wonderbolts. Their combined cry was loud and fierce.' Will we let the humans down?' Easyglider asked, snorting proudly.'
The cry came louder than before.Easyglider grinned, dropping his helmet into place. 'Now that's what I like to hear!' 'Entering Mindoir's atmosphere in thirty seconds,' the ship's intercom said, with the tinny sound of bad speakers. 'Prepare for drop.'
'You heard the stallion!' Easyglider flared his wings, grinning wildly. 'Remember to stick with your wingpony and you'll do fine. Make me proud!' 'Wonderbolts, hoaah!' The shout vibrated through Prism, seeming to resonate deeply in his soul. It felt good, and he could feel a confidence welling up in him that hadn't been there moments before.Stepping up to his wingpony, Prism gave a warm smile to Star Glow.
A female pegasus, her butter yellow coat and blue mane were barely visible under the armor she was wearing. She was older than him and had been quick to take him under her wing from the moment that he had graduated through the academy. When they were back on Equestria, she had an open invitation to dinner in the Rainbow household and she and Firefly got along wonderfully. That fact sometimes came around to haunt him, but it was all good in the end.'
Ready, ma'am,' Prism said. Familiarity was for when they were off duty.' That's good, Prism.' Star Glow nodded approvingly at Prism.
'Just remember, stick with me. We'll get through this if we can stick together.'
Nodding, Prism took a deep breath. Despite her confidence, Star Glow had never actually seen any action. Mutually reassuring each other was the best thing that they could possibly do.
Together, they could get through anything.' It looks like we've got four ships in atmo.' The ship's intercom blared again. Together, the Wonderbolts all moved to their assigned spots in the drop hold, each of which were marked on the floor with four yellow hoof prints telling them where to stand. 'Batarian, by the look of them. No fighters, but a few transport ships buzzing about.' 'Roger that, Captain.'
Easyglider spoke into his helmet microphone, already connected to the ships communication. Turning to face the rest of the Wonderbolts from his own assigned spot he stretched out his wings. 'Synch to the battle-net.'
Reaching over, Prism tapped a button on one of the gauntlets on his foreleg. Inside his helmet, his armor and communications synched with the rest of the Wonderbolts, connecting with a quiet chime.' Drop in five.'
The ship started to shake, a violent motion that felt completely different from actually flying through the air on their own wings. The Wonderbolt's ship sliced neatly through the atmosphere nearly directly over Mindoir's only colony, New Denver.
###Star Glow flew up to rejoin the other Wonderbolts. She watched with wide eyes at the massive human dreadnought and four cruisers holding position above the colony. The SSV Olympus was a sight to see, as dozens of transport ships emerged from it. They began descending to the surface where they started to unload hundreds of Systems Alliance marines.' Nice of you to show up.'
Easyglider broadcasted on all channels, directing it at the Olympus above them. 'Thought we were going to have to take care of this mess all by ourselves.' 'Who is this?' A harsh voice asked. 'This is a restricted channel.' 'Commander Easyglider, with the Wonderbolts,' Easyglider responded easily.' Download film spongebob bahasa indonesia.
The voice sounded surprised but recognized the name. 'I didn't know you were performing on Mindoir.' 'We weren't, but we heard the distress call.' Easyglider banked around, leading the Wonderbolts back towards their ship which was waiting in orbit half a mile away. 'We couldn't help but answer.' 'Thanks for the assist, Commander,' the voice said warmly.' Good job, Wonderbolts!'
Easyglider congratulated over the battle-net. 'You made me proud today.' Then we leap right inot one hell of a damn good intro for the Mass Effect portion. Leaping right into the action, good set up, Equestria is relatively new to the galactic scene but quickly making a mark and spreading out. Enough that the 'Bolts are a big enough deal to put on a show on Thessia itself. Nice tie into the 'Colonist' Shepard background.
Makes me curious what military path she takes (Come on War Hero!)/Class she'll be. (Here's hoping for Vanguard, just for how much damn FUN that class is, and the awesomeness of Shepard pulling the Charge/Shotgun to the face/Nova combo.)Nice attack scene, nice battle, nice to see the Bolts doing so damn good at this. Was a bit 'wut' about the whole. Bit till i realized. Oh wait, duh intro said he's her dad. Curious that the fic tried to put off giving Shepard's last name so long given it said it right in the intro to.Still great way to kick off the story, adding more mystery in just how Ponies fit in, all those details. Only really one kind of.
'Ummm story, WTF?' Bit and that is how one single shot did that much damage. Where the hell are his kinetic barriers? Why have those not been mentioned even once?
