A Prussian in a Strange Land

Franz had traveled a few more hours until it started to get dark. He stopped at a small clearing and encamped. He sat leaner up against a log in front of a fire wile his horse layed nearby. He wondered were on gods green earth Equestria was and if he would ever make it back to his beloved Prussia. He layed back and drifted into sleep with his shako over his eyes to keep any light out.

Franz woke up still in the clearing his horse was over near a bush eating some plants he sat up and walked over to it. He reached into his pocket pulled out a sugar cube and fed it to the horse wile petting its neck. He then mounted and rode off into the forest again. He rode for about forty minuts and then he came to the edge of the forest. He left the forest and stopped on a small hill. off in the distance was a small town. "Perhaps I can get some directions from there." Franz said to himself riding on towards the town.

"Stop Right there whatever you are!" came a voice from behind him

"Who said that?" Franz said back turning around.

"Ill ask the questions around here!" said a small blue winged horse with Rainbow hair.

"Yea? then ask one." said Franz to the pony in a insulting manner

"Well...um....alright heres one, What are you?"

"Well I could ask the same from you."

"Just answer the question!"

"I'm a Human if that's what you want thats..."

"Yes that's what I wanted to know but ill at least tell you who I am." She said flying up to try and make herself look bigger "I'm Rainbow Dash, The Fastest pegasus in Equestria."

"Yes If your that then I'm the King of Prussia."

"Hey I can fly so fast I can do a sonic rainboom!"

"Prove it."

"Fine I will!" Rainbow Dash said flying up into the air at fast speeds

"That takes care of that." said Franz riding towards the town ignoring Rainbow Dash. The town appeared strange to Franz, the architecture seemed like it was from the previous century. He rode towards a tall spiraling structure, no doubt it was the Town Hall. As he approached the town he was startled when he found more multi-colored talking ponies. At first he thought the rainbow pony was just some weird abomination that hadn't been discovered and killed yet. Now it appeared he has found an entire new race. He gripped the handle of his sabre, he didn't know if these things were hostile or not, the first one appeared to be quite inquisitive.

He followed the dirt road into the town he was met with a predictable reaction, fear. Most of the ponies steered clear or ran into their houses. As he rode through the town he encountered a few banners flying from certain buildings. The banners were yellow with a image of the sun and a pony with both wings and a horn. He didn't know who the hell had a banner like that, I definitely  wasn't one of the German States. At least there weren't any french he laughed. He continued through the streets looking about at the ponies as they rushed inside to try and avoid him. They watched him through the windows closely, but when he looked back they rushed away from the windows. He finally arrived at the Town Hall. It was a tall spiral building, it looked as if it belonged in a circus rather than to house any kind of government. He Dismounted and tied his horse to a nearby post. He stroked ts mane one more time before going up the stone stairs. Halfway up the stairs he Looked back over his shoulder to find that the ponies were still hiding. He walked up to the door. There was a sign, it was written in some foreign language. He wondered why they spoke German yet wrote in a different language.
