Magnet boots are best boots, except jet boots...

Kinda the whole logic the Weyland-Yutani executives had during Alien/Aliens/Aliens 3 etc. "We want it because it sells...Despite the fact it's a parasitic race of acid blood carrying, razor sharp teethed/clawed, facehugging, second mouth within it's mouth wielding alien... Gotta love that Species endangering logic.

Oh snap it's Freelancer 2.0!

Who joined?

Fermata was rping with Rarity so unless someone takes over for Ferm she's an NPC. Lol I failed. And Pinkie, No real idea to be perfectly honest...

Speaking of which, when are we adding Freelancer's event's into the plot list in the first post in the rp thread?

Harmony (Freelancer Equina Base with Washington and Virginia) "You were in the Shade Corp before joining Freelancer. You were mentally and physically capable and Shade Corp are unnecessarily way too brutal to their recruits I genuinely feel sorry for those poor recruits, not to mention the advantage of having years of combat experience with you, very few make it to be Agents since the training regimes are designed to make the perfect soldiers or something like that just less brutal as the Shades...But I guess some were just meant to be Agents...You proved that I may've given a good word in for ya too, just to be sure." Harmony slyly smirked to the soon-to-be Agent and her special somepony who grinned and stuck her tongue out at her, she gave Virginia a slightly suggestive look and snickered as Virginia acted like a foal despite her age and she couldn't help but secretly find the cowpony metaphors and mannerisms deadly cute. "Your welcome Apple I couldn't let a good pony like you suffer like that on your own, I understand Apple sometimes me and my sister would've been at each other's throats over something that's stupid or just not worth it, yet we always made up in the end..." she paused for a moment and smiled fondly at the memories of her and her sister before Apple suggested showing her around and obliged gladly leading her around. Harmony watched Virginia who spoke to Washington blushing ever so slightly hoping she'd come along with her special somepony as she didn't really want to be left on the sidelines here at the Equina base while something potentially bigger was going on at HQ. She saluted to the more seasoned Agent who approached them both. ============================================================================ Agent Washington (Command deck with Virginia and Harmony) Washington was about to leave the command deck until a young red-maned mare in Freelancer armour approached him abruptly. Surprised and caught a bit off guard at how young the mare looked he wondered curiously before examining her a little then finally noticed she was Agent Virginia, "Virginia?, Hey I'm Agent Washington but call me Wash, everyone refers me to that apart from the officers who refer to my by my official title and callsign, I heard about your Selection trials, impressive and relentless but brutal. Kind of reminds me of Maine oddly enough. Don't worry you'll know who Maine and who the other agents are soon enough when we're back at base...your fighting style looked familiar, Shade Corp I assume?, They always were... Unnecessarily brutal, no offense intended..." he friendly offered his hoof to the soon-to-be Agent seemingly genuinely intrigued by the young mare in front of him and complimented her on her Selection trials, he then motioned Harmony over with them "Hey 4-6-9er, Command also requested if you came along too they need a dropship pilot soon for a series of missions you'll be taking your dropship with us." Washington quickly motioned to Harmony to ready her dropship to leave with them. "Sure, It'll be ready by the time we're ready to move. I'll fire it up and meet you and Virginia there, see you two later." Harmony nodded to Wash and Virginia before kissing Virginia on the lips quickly and disappearing out of the command deck to her drop ship Wash noticed a little smirk on her face. He gave the two ponies a curious look as Harmony kissed Virginia then shook it off to stay focussed on the task at hand and motioned Virginia to walk with him outside, "So Virginia, how are you finding your way at Freelancer?, hopefully with your experience your induction should come around shortly and to be honest I haven't heard much of the Shade Corp since leaving the old Loyalist days before the Revolution. It's a long story and quite frankly it taught me a lesson of always watch your back even keep an eye on your superiors, that is until I joined Freelancer." Washington asked Virginia casually trying to strike up a conversation with the new soon-to-be Agent to gain some insight into the mare just in case if they were paired up in future missions. "Yeah the logistics are being sorted a refuelling tanker will meet us along the way...As for why we're leaving, even I have no idea but it's coming from the Director himself so it must be important. Usually circumstances like these usually signify that we've reached a successfully huge breakthrough that'll have a direct effect for Agents and Freelancer as a whole." Washington answered the mare's question confidently while marching outside to the airfield with Freelancer troopers stopping and saluting the two agents with huge respect.

Even if I haven't got it yet (due to lack of funding...) it's definitely worth getting. Now quiet and stop being a tease about it...

They say No question, but...Ohhh ****...Zalgo...He comes.

And so Freelancer's story begins... (Btw Freelancer hasn't left Equina, just Washington, Virginia and Harmony/4-6-9er. so if anyone still feels like talking to the representative and ambassador will be there to take over for Washington.)

4-6-9er (Freelancer Base at Equina with Virginia) 4-6-9er was outside the now powered down dropship, waiting for Virginia to be finished with helping the Freelancer troops off-load the last crates of cargo and supplies from the dropship into the main hangers, watching patiently and occasionally hopping on her feet with excitement as combat adrenaline still flowed through her body, after the sudden flight back she was trying to wear the rush off before heading in the base to see what was going on. "So Apple, what do you think of Freelancer now?, not so bad once you get used to all the training and drills, huh?" she confidently asked Virginia teasingly as she got back from the hangers with a sly cheeky smirk on her face. "And I heard about how you kicked major flank in Selection, hehe maybe you might even meet the other Agents, don't worry most of them are quite friendly and don't bite much unless you really piss them off, then I get left picking up the pieces. But we're a pretty close group, kinda like family, a really...really...messed up family. You'd fit right it." she remarked playfully before she explained about what most of the agents are like and giggled as she said about how the Freelancer Agents were like a really dysfunctional, but close-knit family she nudged Virginia's shoulder lightly. As they made their way around the Freelancer base Harmony spotted Washington on the command deck privately conversing with several officers on a deeply private matter which was about to be revealed soon, "Looks like something bigger is happening on the horizon..." she said to Virginia concerned as she watched Washington and the officers, she held onto Virginia's hand sensing a bad feeling rise in the bottom of her gut but shrugged it off and smiled a little and reminded herself to stay strong for Virginia. "At least we don't get to do any drills now." she remarked snarkily barely missing the mundane drills in favour of the crazy events that happened today. ========================================================================= Freelancer Agent Washington (Freelancer Base Command Deck) Washington discussed the new orders from Freelancer Command which asked all Freelancer Agents to return to the Freelancer HQ with the other officers privately on the command balcony, "...Are you sure this is accurate?, they do realise that Equina is far from rebuilt and relations with the other factions do need work that requires a representative from Freelancer to smoothen things up, right?" he asked confused and unsure of the new orders, it didn't add up at all he was meant to stay in Equina to smooth the issues at hand down and to help restore peace in the capital but for Command to change their minds like that didn't make sense... "Yes Washington, Director's orders. It's classified as a top priority that all agents get transferred back to command within the next three days. An ambassador of Freelancer will assume your duties here temporarily and will be relieved upon your return." the Officer replied sternly as the matter was a very risky move on the Director's part but he had a feeling something big was going on. Everyone on the command deck that heard the order knew it but didn't say anything. "Very well...rely those orders to Agent Virginia as she is the only other Agent stationed here in Equina, tell the Director that Agents Virginia and Washington acknowledge the order and will be there within the allotted time." Washington instructed the Officer handing him a datapad containing his orders and exchanged a crisp salute to the Officer who saluted back before he left the Command deck and prepared for departure from the base.

I have a whole faction of OCs and yet unintroduced OCs but I have no idea why I'm concentrating on a few of them.

That and still can't post...

Kinda like Freelancer, but I'm not aware of any Changelings in Freelancer...Hmm, that might give me an idea. I shall return later this evening to ponder this idea.

Aren't the Changelings part of the GEF or RLF?

The way I think it'll go is that the story will probably split into maybe three or more arcs (RLF, GEF, Freelancer etc.) each arc will cover each faction, some might intersect and crossover for a bit before separating back to their individual arcs, Draco would probably be in the GEF arc unless he defects to the RLF or something. As to what happens to him is up to you. But that's my thoughts on it.

This ought to be interesting but trust me, what happens later, the "Holy ****!" moments really start flying during the Freelancer Story Arc.

I put it in a spoiler tag, if you read that it's your own fault. Pretty much the worse case scenario for Twilight should she get 'active' in her current state. OH GOD WHAT'VE I DONE TO UNLEASH SUCH INNUENDOES?!

Hell even the Director and Tex would be pissed if Twilight died before they had completed their unfinished business with her.

Fixed

^ This...Just this.

That's odd I thought you based Striker off from Sgt Johnson from the Halo series xD but still awesome thought and yes Striker might pull a Cthulhu punch on Lunar after the Temporal anomaly field disappears, better watch your back Lunar.

Hey Val, don't mean to be annoying but is there any chance for a Virginia response in your next post? Also loving the Lunar Cross twist and Free's/Striker's responses, kinda feel bad for Free with the whole "Lunar was Luna's ex-lover" deal.

Val should I edit my post with 4-6-9er more so Virginia can have more to play off from or leave it as it is? also as for the earlier info, here's my thoughts: 1. Interesting and a exotic sounding name would be better. 2. A good idea I'm all for that. 3. I guess but Freelancer are just neutral in terms of sides as they have their own agenda and prefer not taking sides in this conflict hence their efforts in rebuilding the capital. 4. What Total said, I think it's better that we reach a important part of the story then start the next chapter.

I'm kidding, but if there are jump packs/power swords/badassery and awesomeness I'm in. So everyone just starts as a Guardsmen/Marine/etc? or do we get to choose who we play as? (Character-wise)
