Silver passes a few more houses, and houses with minor water damage still visible on the first few feet, with a small saloon being the last building on Old Mecc before Main and Old Mech Trail Roads merge and make the bend southwest and ultimately towards the break between the Unicorn and Upper Unicorn ranges. Silver has seen the trail that follows the creak northwest and the path around the hill.

Looking at the dairy plant, he finds that the situation is in many ways like that of the grain elevator down south, with trucks on the side and in front. What is new is the anti-tank gun that faces towards town, and the anti-tank gun that faces away from town, down the valley. The latter is partly behind a truck so as to obscure its presence. Silver can see a number of riflelines have taken up on the roof of the building, as well as around it, around trucks. Most do not seem to be at defensive positions, but some are, and at least one machine gun is visible on top of the building. Silver can see that this is larger than squad strength here.

The truck stops. While the right side of the truck is blocked by the edge of the dairy facility, Silver can see a pony in Equestrian uniform step out of the driver's seat, and a couple ponies going up to the back of the truck to unload it

I think we would have seen them on Whinnyton or Main, and we absolutely would have seen them on Old Mecc. Unless maybe our ponies were paying less attention than we thought? Anyways, that's an Equestrian logistics truck right there, so they definitely took it from the 23rd's supply elements."

"Absolutely. When nightfall comes, it will be easier for them to hold their position or strike out. Let's not give them the advantage."

Off in the distance, Silver hears crackles and booms. Before, there were a few. Now, there are many. Some are louder and last longer, but some are shorter and sharper, and the latter are more numerous. The sounds increase in number, so that they are like distant drumbeats, or perhaps machine gun fire. But Silver has heard drums, and he knows what machine gun fire sounds like, and this is neither. It is more distant, more irregular, and louder, rolling over the hills and down the valley, or echoing off the mountains.

He's still not in great condition for moving, running, or long range shooting, so he may be best in closed spaces.

If Silver is still looking at the Dairy processor, he can see two alleged ponies walk outside... though both carry the changeling machinepistol around slings on their backs. One wears the markings of an Equestrian First Lieutenant. The other wears the markings of a First Sergeant.

Silver is able to go back to his ponies, and they go to the creek, walking on the trail back. The ponies walk around the hill, before starting to climb the hill

Presumably, Silver wants to keep the machine gun section next to the ponies in the command section, for convenience of command. The squads move out along the sage, positioning themselves along a line on the top of the ridge, generally trying to hide under sage brush. Bipods are set up and ponies hoof over their machine gun magazines into a pile next to each squad machinegun. The machine gun section sets up, with three manning the medium machine gun, and a commander with a rifle.

There is an attempt by the anti-tank gun to fire. Fortunately, the gun seems to misfire for some reason unknown to Silver. The ambulance continues down the road, slowing down as something is clearly wrong.

At the gun, the alleged ponies remove the cartridge from the gun, one of them tossing the live round far away, while another loads it. The machine gun by the truck trains onto the ambulance, though there is no firing.

The drone in the grass - still wearing the form and uniform of a pony, mind you - is the same drone that launched the grenade that injured two ponies, perhaps killing one of them. He is prone in the low grass and next to sage brush, so it's not the easiest shot to make. Nevertheless, Silver thinks he's hit him

Silver has one bullet left in the magazine

The drone running along the grass is shot, staggers, and is shot through the back of the head. His gun flies forward, landing right in front of the door.

The two drones on the roof take off flying. Both seem to recoil from shots that hit. Neither falls, and both jump off the roof, and out of sight.

5 round stripper clips, it's almost easier to just cycle the bolt and eject the last bullet in the magazine, and then insert two new stripper clips.

Several of the ponies in Silver's platoon came with both rifles and submachine guns, although there are very few submachine guns in the group; perhaps 4.

It looks like five ponies in the platoon - all rifle ponies - have been pulled out of combat for wounds. Of these, at least three are so severe they are not going anywhere, and may already be dead. An additional two ponies beyond this are lightly wounded.

The changelings at the plant have gone silent, although a couple downed changelings on the roof and in the grass twitch.

Silver stands up from the ridgeline, along with many of the ponies in his platoon. Brisbuck gets up, and yells "Forward!" And so a line of ponies stand up from their positions, and advance down the hill, towards the north face of the dairy plant, and perhaps somewhere else.

"Heh" Brisbuck smiles, with overly nice and shiny teeth
"Maybe."

Machine gunners pick up their guns and hold them on their sides in a "walking fire" position, almost like it's a lance on their sides. The belt fed gun stays in position on the ridge, being too unwieldy to move forward, and in any event it's best to stay on the high position in case of need of covering fire.

Walking up closer to the door, Silver sees a drone dead on its back in the grass, then another, then another, and then the officer, until finally there is the drone who fell only a couple feet from the door. A changeling bolt action rifle lies strangely upright against a sage bush, while a submachine gun lies on a section of barren sand that has a slightly reddish tint. Perhaps most inglorious is the rifle that would serve as a doorstop, were the rear door to open.

"One third casualties in the first day?"

He pauses, and then restarts his reply,
"Yes, I hope they are repelling the drones as well as we are. I feared they'd do much worse for their first time in combat... our first time in combat" he makes an awkward smile, pulling back his lips. "But they've held solid."

"I do not mean to seem cold. But it is clear changelings are taking more of beating than us."

Once up to the door, he takes position against the wall next to it. He returns to a quieter tone as he speaks to Brisbuck.

"No doubt they are waiting for us to enter. We need decoy."

Perhaps half of the ponies who are not downed dive to the ground, while the other half return fire

A changeling that raised a machine gun on top of a truck is shot in the head. A number of bullets fly inside the dark, open window. A changeling with an SMG who was leaning out from behind the truck falls over, and sprawls out dead on the ground

From inside of the window, the fire from the machine gun has ceased. There is no fire from behind the ruck, although at least one drone has pulled back behind the truck

From inside, there are several shots from a drone who seems to pull back and away after firing.

Shrapnel can't really be called "friendly," any more than the Equestrian-made rifles, carbines, pistols, and heavy machine guns that have been shooting at Silver can be called friendly. Still, Silver is able to look through the window.

The room is some sort of... well, actually it's kind of hard to tell what this room is, but there are a number of stainless steel cabinets, sinks, and refrigerators, as well as beakers and test tubes. The machine gun rested in part on a steel countertop with the end hanging off. There are ammunition boxes over to the left, an unfinished belt, and a very large amount of spent cartridges on the floor. More significant are the three corpses on the ground. One, which has a smeared trail of blood leading from closer to the machine gun, is over in the right corner under a steel table with a jar that holds milk, which looks like it has been left out too long with the solids beginning to settle. One is turned over to the left. And another is immediately underneath where the machinegun fell.

Silver does feel some remorse, looking at the carnage and the dead and dying changelings everywhere. Take away the strangely colored blood and the black chitinous exteriors, and they'd look exactly like ponies. After checking the truck, Silver trots up to the changeling with the metal helmet and the white leg band, unsure of what he can do but wanting to do something, anyway.

Heal: Using what he has on hoof, particularly clean strips of cloth ripped off of other dead changelings' uniforms, he attempts to stabilize this changeling and sit him upright.

Indeed he does toss the pistol to the side, and indeed he keeps out of line of sight of his face, but he slowly and carefully drags the changeling to prop him up against the truck. He hopes what he did helps. When the creature hisses, he responds despite the good chance that the drone can't understand.

"If I wanted to harm you, I would have killed you already, chitinous one."

Once Silver is done with that and is satisfyed that the drone will stay sat up against the truck, he goes to the other wounded changeling to examine his own wounds.

Silver gets up, and returns to his ponies.

"Alright, I have plan for after we finish up here, but we have job to do first. We need to clear this building quickly, make sure we have found location of cocooned ponies and that there are no changelings. Understood?"

Whereas the drone Silver placed against the truck seems to make an effort to move its head to look at Silver, this one only stares straight ahead, still bleeding from small wounds.

"Sir, Yes Sir."

Amber Grain is in the fore, as are the few remaining NCOs. Silver has more than 20 remaining soldiers, including all three light machine gun crews.

Silver pulls out his SMG.

"We will split into two groups. One group will remain out here to keep watch over our wounded, while other will join me in clearing plant methodically. Can I get any volunteers to join me?"

Not everypony volunteers, but several do.

These include Sleetfall and cornflake, as well as the black colt, and the pink Pegasus corporal of A squad. Silver is able to sort out fourteen or so volunteers.

Silver nods, glad for this development.

"Alright, keep your eyes and ears open. You will know cocoons when you see them. Rest of you, stay here and guard our wounded."
