The Enola Gay

"What in the blue fuck was that?!" Sergeant Duzenbury asked over the intercom.

"I don't know. But I do know we arn't over the Pacific anymore and there's no water behind us. I have no idea." Tibbis said.

"There's a big empty field ahead that we can set her down in."

The co-pilot looked at Tibbits. Tibbits knew that this may be enemy territory and they risked death if they landed, but they had to find out where they were since none of the map's the navigator had matched the area.

The plane skidded to a halt just before it would have plowed into a fence at the edge of the field. The flight engineer shut down the engines and the crew opened the hatch and climbed out. Once the crew had assembled by the plane they drew names from a flak helmet to see who stayed with the plane.

"Jeppson, Nelson, Ferebee, and Beser stay here." TIbbits said pulling the names from the helmet.

The men checked their pistols and loaded every chamber.

"Now you four remember what we discused right? If you're attacked you are to detonate the bomb. Don't detonate it unless someone shoots at you. Got it?" Tibbits asked. The four men nodded. "Good. The rest of you follow me. I think I saw a town about a mile to the west before we landed. Maybe we can figure this shit out there." Tibbits said as he led the men towards the town.

The men trudged through thorn bush after thorn bush and began to see signs of civilization. They noticed an apple orchard off in the distance and a small cottage near an ominous looking forest. Finally the men reached the small bridge that led into town. Tibbits read the sign by the bridge.

"Ponyville. Population: 250. Who the hell names a town that?" he asked.

"At least the sign ain't in Japanese." Caron said.

The men began crossing the bridge when they heard a loud gasp. The men stood in shock as a pink horse welcomed them to town and just kept rambling on.

'I think doc gave us some bad chocolate.' Tibbits thought to himself. As suddenly as she had appeared the pink horse vanished. Tibbits and his men continued into town with their guns drawn and ready to fight in this new weird world. As Tibbits peeked around the corner of a building he could see it was a cafe and there were more of those horse things sitting and enjoing coffee or a pastry. Turning back towards his men he told them what he had seen. The men knew what the Colonel said was the truth because Tibbits was a very serious person. Tibbits peeked around again but this time someone saw him. The mare screamed and pointed Tibbits out to the other patrons. The next thing Tibbits knew him and his men were being held down by white unicorn stallions in golden armor.

Back at the plane the four men had no idea as to the happenings in town and continued to keep an eye and ear open. Ferebee stood near the nose of the plane and kept an eye on the small group of trees in front of him. Then he heard something in the trees, he could hear someone singing. Walking towards the trees Ferebee could hear the singing get louder as he walked into the group of trees. It was the most beautiful singing he had ever heard and had managed to find the area where it was coming from and as he was about to peek through the bushes to see the girl who was singing, WHAM!, a tree branch hit Ferebee in the head, knocking him out cold.

~~~

In town it wasn't going any better for the other's who were now hog tied and being held in the town's library. The unicorn stallions still stood guard over the men as five mares stood in a corner talking. From what Tibbits could see there were two unicorns, a pegusus, and a couple of normal horses or ponies or whatever the hell they were. They stood talking and glancing over at the men every so often. Finally a purplish one walked towards the men. From what Tibbits had gathered she was the leader of the group.

"Who and what are you?" she asked.

"Untie me and I'll tell you." Tibbits said.

A purple glow surrounded the ropes around Tibbits wrist's and ankle's and he felt them go lax.

"Now tell us." she ordered.

"I am Colonel Paul Tibbits, U.S. Army Air Force." Tibbits said as he stood up. "And these are members of my crew."

"Twilight you wont belive the creature I found!" came the quietly excited voice from the door.

Tibbits noticed that when she saw him she began to get more quiet and nervous till she only let out a small squee. He saw her eyes suddenly move from him to the other men who were still hog tied. She rushed over and began untieing them.

"Fluttershy what are you doing?!" the purple unicorn asked with concern.

"Twilight thats what I was here to tell you about. I found one of these creatures in the woods. Apperently Angel hit him on the head with a branch and gave him a good size bump." she said untieing the last of the men.

"You found one of my men?" Tibbits asked.

"Yes. why were there more?" the yellow pegusus asked.

"Yes but I can't tell you their position." Tibbits said remebering the bomb.

"Can you take me to see the man you found?" Tibbits asked.

"yes." the pegusus replied in a near inaudable tone. She led him out the door towards her home.

~~~

"So what's your name?" Tibbits asked hoping to ease the pony's uneasy felling about him.

"Fluttershy." she said.

"Well thank you for taking care of one of my men for me Fluttershy." Tibbits said looking down at the pegusus walking along side him. As they rounded a bend Tibbits could see the cottage that they had seen on the way towards town. As they neared he could also see animals looking out the windows at Fluttershy. As they entered he saw almost every kind of animal. He saw cats, birds, a rabbit, and they just went on and on. Then he saw Ferebee sitting on the couch.

"Come on Ferebee lets go!" Tibbits ordered. Ferebee stood up and walked towards the door with Tibbits and Fluttershy. As they walked towards the library Ferebee began to tell Tibbits what happened. He explained how he had heard her singing and went to investigate and got hit on the head by a fairly good size branch and how he had woken up on Fluttershy's couch all bandaged up and figured that they must have travled to some diffrent world. When they arrived at the library they saw a large chariot infront of the library. As they walked in Tibbits saw there were more guards and there were two mares there that must've arrived since they left. He saw one was a deep, dark shade of blue with a mane that matched her coat and managed to wave even with no wind. Then he looked at the one next to her. She was taller then the other and was white with a pink, green, and blue mane that, like the other mare's, managed to wave without a breeze.

"Mister Tibbits, this is Princess' Celestia and Luna. They are the rulers of our country." Twilight said as Tibbits stepped forward.

"Colonel Paul Tibbits?" Celestia asked looking at him.

"Yes, ma'am?" Tibbits said stepping infront of her.

"You have alot of explaning to do for us. First off, how did you get here?" Celestia asked looking the Colonel dead in the eye.

"To be honest ma'am, I don't know. We were flying along and suddenly we appered here." Tibbits said.

"That's impossiable! You don't even have wing's!" Luna said after hearing this.

"We do of sort's." one of the men said. Tibbits turned his head and shot the group a look of anger for that comment.

"What does the man mean Colonel?" Celestia asked. Standing up, Tibbits motioned towards the door. He knew it would be easier to just show them.

~~~

"Hold your fire!" Tibbits yelled as he neared where the plane was. The ponies behind him didn't seem to have as much trouble moving through the brush. When they entered the field the ponies jaw's dropped. The three men left guarding the plane were breifed on the situation from Tibbits and seemed calm about being stranded on an alien planet with abunch of technicolored ponies. The ponies aproched the airplane and began looking it over. Tibbits just hoped they wouldn't want to look inside.
