Storm turned to face Flaming. "Well, it's cold out here, and" Storm's stomach started growling "ah, can we come inside and talk about this with some food" Storm said.

"In Princess' good graces. Not trusted. Been assigned to training unit. Will update in future."
Cloud ties off the missive and sends the falcon off to an unknown location.
With this complete, he walks in through the training grounds entrance. With his dusty, worn appearance and the weapons strapped to his bags, he wasn't exactly the most inconspicuous pony on the grounds. Heading straight into the main structure, he asks for a room and gets assigned to an officer's quarter in a subsidiary tower separate from the main structure. "Figures" he though. "That much easier for the royal guard to keep an eye on me. Can't complain, however. I was the one to suggest it, after all." Placing his bags down in his new room, he walks out and begins to survey the training grounds when he saw a lone pegasus in special armor shooting an arrow at a target. It appeared to have a letter on it.
"Hm. I read something about new armor in that letter the quartermaster gave me on basic info of the military. Perhaps he's training instructor I'm supposed to be working with."
Walking over to the archery range, he stands under the shade of a tree and observes.

Hiding a smirk, Cloudshaker cooly raised his hat in acknowledgment and waited for Rapidfire's reaction.

((hey. You're in an army that has been at peacetime for at least 1,000 years and can wield multiple crossbows. Explain that with hooves. Rapidfire can do fancy flying and high speed shooting. The only thing my OC does is shoot extremely accurately. What does me being a mercenary have anything to do with my accuracy? It's not like I'm one of those "rent-a-cop" quality mercs >.>))

"Oh please. You're not that important. I was never out here to gain your trust or acceptance. I'm here to make sure your men stay alive in the battlefield, because in case you haven't noticed this is the first war we're in after 1,000 years of peace and prosperity. You think that your men are going to be prepared for it by a Commander who's just as green as they? How much battle experience have you had, exactly? I heard you were a Wonderbolt hotshot before you got into this military business, so maybe you're not exactly sure with the reality of things. We're at WAR. Your men need the kind of training that only a battle hardened veteran can provide. Unless we're looking at different training facilities, the only one I see that is competent is Briar Rose." Matching Rapidfire's hard stare, he continued. "Also, another thing: The New Lunar Republic is a bunch of rag tag rebels. Princess Luna is in no way involved with the conflict, and I know this because I just heard her talking to Princess Celestia less than an hour ago about the entire affair! Unlike the other less reputable members of my profession, I have standards. I never break a contract, and I don't support rebels trying to stir up a stable, just government. I'm part of the Equestrian Unity Collective; not that that would mean anything to you. I'm not going to support the side that is going against the motives of the Collective, so don't patronize me, boy."
Turning away, he said "I can already see we're going to have to disagree. That's fine with me. Just don't get into my way while I give your men the training they're supposed to be getting. After all, the Princess has already paid in advance, so I'm stuck with the two of you until the rebellion has been quashed. It's been nice meeting you." Cloud Shaker walked away from the scene, refusing to be drawn into the angry rage that Rapidfire had just displayed. He also blatantly ignored Briar Rose as he walked past, sensing that if she was like the rest of them, then he'd already had enough of it. "That boy will be making a huge mistake presuming that I'm the same as those backstabbing traitors. I would never betray my own...especially not after that incident on the islands a year ago..." He muttered under his breath as he walked back to his quarters.

He felt another presence in the room... "It's you again is it?" Rapidfire moaned.
"Its me, Static Shock," came the reply, "Were you expecting somepony else?"
"No, there is this mercenary that is gonna drive me up into the burning sun," Rapidfire groaned, "I thought that he might have been paying me a visit."
Static Shock shifted his weight a little bit, "Well, it is about Thunderlane. He is learning from me really quickly, he should be ready to take a week-long medic's training shortly to become official. His wing is still a bit broken, but he is a really talented stallion. Its really too bad you yelled at him, it broke him up a bit."
"You know I did that so that way it discouraged other pegasi from breaking their wings to miss flight training?" responded Rapidfire, "Maybe I let my temper get away from me on that one..."
"You did," Static Shock responded firmly, "You know you are quite terrifying when you are angry."
"Am I really? I couldn't tell." Rapidfire's sarcasm was a bit apparent, "Tell Thunderlane I'm sorry," apologized Rapidfire, "And tell him if I vent on someone, I am doing it because I like and care about everypony in the squadron and it breaks me up to see them not trying their best."
"I will," replied Static Shock, "See you later, FNG!" He chortled as he cantered off to tell Thunderlane the news. He nodded at a pony he had never seen before kindly.
"Gah! I hate that nickname!" Rapidfire grunted.
He sensed that there was another pony in the room. Rapidfire turned around to face Cloud Chaser "I knew you were here. Are you here to cut the string of my bow again?"

"No, actually, I'm not. No point in damaging useful equipment." He paused, then continued forward with his speech. "I'm here to apologize for breaking your bowstring. It was unprofessional of me and let a bad image of who I really am. I behaved out of turn against another pony of my same rank. So... sorry." He turned to exit the room, then paused and decided to add more to his speech. "Don't think I'm here to gain your forgiveness, nor think that this will ever happen again. I apologize for my unprofessional behaviour, not the act itself. Nothing more, nothing less." Reaching into his saddlebag, he threw one of his higher grade strings out to Rapidfire. "That should cover any loss of funds for that bowstring."
Cloud Shaker swiftly exited the room and locked himself into his quarters, intending to stay there until the dinner bell studying floorplans of the facility he had obtained from the archive room on base.

Meanwhile, Static Shock trotted up to Briar Rose as she strutted up and down the firing line giving pointers to Rapidfire's division. "Hey Briar, do you have a moment?"
((Well, the conflict between Rapidfire and Cloud Shaker is really interesting, but sorry for that.))

A stallion put his hoof up "Um... I'm squeamish"
"why'd you join the Empire then?"
"..." the stallion couldn't say anything to respond to that.
"we'll be best if we learn how to hit small targets because bigger targets will be easier to hit"
The platoon headed up to the tower.

"Oh, for crying out loud..." Cloud Shaker popped his head out to see if the coast was clear. "Just heading to the cafeteria for grub. I'll be back in five." He ghosted through the corridor, taking the long away around to avoid as much contact with any of the other ponies. In the end, he was still a lone wolf. "Not that it was ever any other way..." Finally reaching the lunch line, he quietly prayed to Celestia that he wouldn't bump into anypony who saw how he'd acted that morning. "The last thing I need is a gaggle of insulted ponies demanding vengeance." He groaned inwardly. He really shouldn't have showed off so much.

He spread his wings gently so they wouldn't clang and took off for the training ground. He landed on the ground and saw his unit in the tower. He spread his wings with the metallic clang and swooped up to their eye level off to the side. He looked around for targets but only saw pigeons. "Hey Briar, did they put my unit on vermin pigeon control duty? Blast, I knew I should've been more intimidating at fall in so my unit could've impressed the higher brass!"

"Yikes. I knew I shouldn't have stayed up so late studying ancient civilizations that pre-dated Equestria." He muttered to himself. Grabbing a cup of coffee with his magic, he took a long sip and immediately spat it out. "Cold! Sweet Celestia, I've been out a while." Now in a generally bad mood, he walks out of the palace library and heads towards the kitchen for his noontime repose. Suppressing a yawn, he promised to himself not to stay up that late again even though it was inevitable that it would happen.

Artemis woke up. He didn't realize that he had been dozing while standing up. "Huh, wha? Oh, hello there. You must be with the Royal Army. Fascinating." He looked closely at the pegasus standing behind him. "Thats funny. I didn't know the Wonderbolts were in the military. I must get this down in my records." Pulling out a notepad from Celestia knows where, he began to scribble down some notes. "My name is Artemis. I'm the royal scholar and head of the Palace Library. If you have time, would you mind stopping by later on? I need to ask you some questions for my research on the science of pegasus wings." After receiving his food, he turned his head and said "If you do choose the visit, the library will be free in the evening. Come by then." Nodding scholarly, he wanders off in the general direction of the library, muttering to himself as he went.

Static Shock walked straight into the furball when Rapidfire took off. "What is this? Uh oh the pegasi are starting to shed their winter coats. Fur and down is gonna be everywhere!" he hurried off to Briar Rose to warn her about the mess of feathers she was gonna have. "Ma'am we have a problem! The pegasi are gonna start shedding!"

"Thunderlane! Thank goodness your here can you scratch in between my shoulders?" Rapidfire asked.
"I was just about to ask you the exact same thing!" Thunderlane exclaimed. He trotted towards Rapidfire, dropping feathers and kicking up the pile sitting on the ground. He scratched Rapidfire's shoulder and Rapidfire returned the favor.
"Ah thank goodness, and thank you Thunderlane! How is medic training?"
"The pegasi got dismissed from the course for the day as soon as the feathers began to fly. Nopony is gonna want to be within a kilometre of us for sure all day!" Thunderlane beamed and showed off his uncasted wing, "On the plus side, I can start flight training in a couple days. See you Rapidfire!" Thunderlane trotted out, and Rapidfire went with him to see how old Spitire was holding up.
Rapidfire took off in a poof of orange down and headed up to Spitfire's tower. He avoided the yellow clouds of feathers slowly drifting to the ground. "Hey Spitfire, how are you holding up? It's that time of year again!"
