Project Avian: Old Soldier and New World

Boom!

          I ran behind a nearby wall and unholstered my pistol and started blind firing into the stream of rebels closing in on my position. " Damn it Vigil I thought you said you took control of those turrets!" I yelled while tossing a frag grenade. I heard a beeping noise from the console and ran toward it; I unhooked the A.I. chip and put it in an open slot in  my armor. " Of course I did the rebels must've destroyed them." Vigil said calmly. I sighed heavily and ran back into cover.

      I tossed another frag grenade down the hall and jumped through the smoke firing my pistol. " Vigil where the hell do I go now!?" I exclaimed facing a fork in the road... well hallway. " Go left twenty meters then straight and that's were our next objective will be." I did so avoiding rebels and killing a few. I kicked open a door and entered the room checking my corners. I was grabbed from behind by a rebel and I threw him over my back and shot him in the head.  I looked up and saw a large ring glowing white in the center of the room.

    "Um... Vigil what's that?"

      "That's our objective. We as in 'you' must destroy the teleportation device." I looked around and I couldn't find anything to destroy the ring. I turned around and grew wide eyed when I saw a rocket team in front of me. " Son of a bitch!" I said running toward the giant ring. I jumped but the rocket team fired and sent me flying  into the ring. Well goodbye world. I thought.

                                                                 *                 *                *

      I woke up free falling with the front of my body facing the ground. I pressed a button on my palm and my jet pack ignited slowing my fall. I looked around and I saw clouds and a blue sky. Strange I was in a facility in space just a minute ago.

I looked back down and saw a small village that looked like something from a renaissance Earth. " John may I suggest you land somewhere outside the village?" Vigil said. " Good idea Vigil." I said while turning another direction and I saw a cyan streak heading straight towards me. " Why me?"

        The cyan color collied into me knocking me off course and with me hitting the ground face first. Thank god I wear a helmet. I turned my body to face the sky and saw the cyan color looking at me strangely. The weird part is it has wings and rainbow colored hair. " Who and what are you?" The voice was feminine and she was giving me a death glare. " Um... hi."

She still give me the death glare. I slowly lifted my arm up and was about to pull out my knife but I decided against it.

       " Okay so you can talk now tell me what you're doing here!?" She got closer to my visor I was about to close when I heard five other voices call it's name. ' Rainbow!' She looked away and I kicked Rainbow off of me so I could finally get up. "Hey!" Rainbow yelled at me and was about to throw what I think was punch at me. I grabbed her hoof and I added a little bit of pressure. I turned my head and saw the other five equines staring at me except for a pink one with blue eyes that seemed to be bouncing around me.

      The pink one spoke, " Hi my name's Pinkie Pie what's your's? Oh waiwaitwait lemme guess is it scary bug alien or-" I cut her off by putting my hand over her mouth but she still kept talking. I looked at the others and each of them were different colors. One is a lavender coat with amethyst eyes, a horn with violet hair and tail with a pink highlight. Another one has an orange coat with blonde hair and tail with green eyes. The third one has a white coat with  purple hair and tail with a curl the eyes are a shade of blue .The last one has a butter yellow coat with pink hair and tail, the eyes are a teal color, she looked a little shy.

      I looked at the cyan one in my hand and eased up. " Okay buster what are you?" Rainbow still gave me the death glare until the lavender one walked up. The lavender one sighed and shook her head and spoke, " Rainbow Dash why do you always think something is wrong when you meet something new?"

    " Sorry Twilight it's just after the wedding I've been high alert." I looked at them and just stood there and said, " Alright you have a lot of questions and so do I but how about I give you my name. I'm Sergeant John Baxtor." They all looked at me weirdly. I looked to my side and saw a hologram of vigil next to me. I like Vigil's form a wingless dragon with a green body with ones zeros going through him. His arms, legs, and head are white so was the tail. The tip of the tail is also green and seemed to move like fire. " Hello I am Vigil an artificial intelligence designed to be with John to assist him in almost any situation." I face palmed and shook my head. " Alright I told you my name and now you can tell me and Vigil all of your names." I said trying to be calm.

     Twilight introduced herself first then Rainbow Dash then Pinkie Pie. The orange one stepped up. " Howdy Ah'm Applejack." She put her hoof out and we shook. That's a tough grip. I thought forcing myself not to grab my wrist. The white one stepped up. " Hello dear my name is Rarity and I have to say whoever gave the design for your clothing must be ashamed of that is simply atrocious." My eye twitched when I heard her voice it was like a snobby business woman. I held back my anger though. The yellow one walked up rather shyly. I decided to be patient. " Hello... my... name is... Fluttershy." I decided not to say anything my armor was able to pick it up any way. " John we appear to have company," Vigil said, " and it looks to be important." I looked up and saw a golden chariot in the sky pulled by armored pegasi. My binoculars zoomed in and I saw a white figure sitting on the chariot. It has a white coat with a horn and wings and it is also wearing a crown. The chariot landed in front of us and I saw the group next to me bow down. Twilight got up and ran to hug the obvious royalty. " Princess it's so good to see you... but wait what are you doing here?" The Princess smiled down and her violet yes glared at me. " I wish to speak to our new arrival." I looked down at Vigil who shrugged. " Yeah a big help you've been." I said to Vigil leaning towards him.
