"Cornflake! Pull him back! Sleetfall! Grenade!"

The Sargeant moves forward, and tosses in a grenade. Silver is pulled back by the pony from the masterbedroom, and the last pony moves forward, and likewise throws a grenade around the corner.

What happens next, Silver is not to know. There is an explosion, then another loud explosion. What Silver learns in retrospect, is that the first grenade tossed into the room was tossed back out through the small crack of the door. Sleetfall, the Pegasus, frantically rushed in to push it away with his wings, pushing it away. One grenade detonates loudly inside of the telephone room. The grenade outside is pushed away somewhat down the street. Silver is already on the ground. The pony pulling Silver simply falls backwards on his back, and Sleetfall tumbles to the ground. The Sargeant, however, does not make it to the ground so quickly, and takes hits from shrapnel.

Looking inside of the office, Silver can see a changeling drone in Equestrian uniform - no pretense at being a pony, but still wearing the uniform of an Equestrian armorer - starting to get up off the ground. Sleetfall is quick to get up, picks up a rifle, and charges at the drone as if with a lance. By misfortune or by daze, Sleetflall misses his bayonet.

Cornflake tries to get up, and aim his rifle.

Silver jumps up to his hooves almost immediately.

With the door opened, Silver can see there are two drones in the room. One with a rifle who appears to be downed. The other wearing an Equestrian army uniform with an armorer's markings, who seems to be a Changeling non-commissioned officer. He is bleeding profusely and must have had the disguise blown right off of him, but he is starting to get up, and he is levitating his machinepistol. Sleetfall has run right into the office, but has failed to stick the drone with his bayonet.

Silver shoots true, and a hit, hit, hit, hit, and another hit takes the drone. The bullets create small but noticeable blood splatters, and push his body ever so slightly, until the creature falls back down on its back on the floor, mouth hanging open.

Silver stops right where he is, trying to appear as unthreatening as he can be. He points to the grenade, and speaks calmly.

"Please, you do not have to do that. Just...give it here, nice and slowly. I promise, I will not hurt you."

The creature turns its ears and eyes to Silver. It's eyes are very wide. It has made no movement on the grenade

The grenade could require constant pressure on the handle to keep from detonating

Silver gulps, a little nervous at his situation. He takes a small step cautuously towards the changeling.

"Not going to hurt you...do not detonate grenade..."

At least there is no movement on the grenade. The creature continues breathing heavily, ears tilted towards Silver and eyes wide

Silver takes another step, trying to convey as non-threatening body language as he can.

"Just like that, nice and calm..."

Silver smiles at the creature. He points to the grenade, then makes a motion with his hoof as if he was receiving something.

"Now, just...carefully, give me the grenade. It will be okay."
