[Wolf brigade be prepared, we have confirmed sightings of hostiles in your area]
[will do overlord, shells loaded and engines hot] Hi my name is Sargent Hawkins, that’s all you need to know for now. We were sent here to Russia to patrol hot zones and spot hostiles, the date is January 12 2144, World War 3 started in 2057 this is the longest war in history, I am commander of 3 top secret M5A7 tanks. Our mission, search and destroy.
[Alright wolf 2 take left flank, wolf 3 take right]
[Affirmative taking left]
[Will do taking right] We patrol the area looking for possible hostiles.
[Report]
[Nothing on left flank sir]
[Nothing on the rig- wait, possible hostile 2,000 meters and closing fast]
[All guns load AP and prepare to fire] I feel a heavy impact on the right side of my tank and I look through the optics.
[Where did that come from?]
[Target of right flank sir]
[Wolf 3, target is hostile permission to dispatch]
[With pleasure] I look out to the right and see wolf 3 fire, I wait about 3 seconds and see the shell hit the tank ripping a 5 inch hole through the entire tank.
[Lets hope he doesn’t have friends in this area] I keep watching the hostile tank until it explodes in a grand display. We continue to patrol the area for a few hours before we spot a small town in the distance.
[Overlord this is wolf 1 we have spotted a small town in the distance permission to investigate?] Silence.
[Overlord this is wolf 1 we have found a small town permission to investigate?] Silence.
[Alright wolf brigade they must be jamming our communications from that small town we must get into it and destroy jamming equipment] we approach the town and soon after enter the premises.
[Wold brigade found anything?]
[wolf 2 see's a small object is the sky13,000 feet and closing fast]
[wolf 2 keep you eye on that object, wolf 3 report]
[found what seems to be the jamming equipment sir]
[wolf 3 destroy all equipment]
[wolf 1 this is wolf 2 the object is a Russian X87A4 cruise missile] I see the object incoming from the north east.
[shit everyone full speed away form the town now!] I hear the whir of our experimental engines and we take off I look at the speedometer and we are approaching 400 miles per hour
[wolf 1 object has changed course it seems to be locked on you] I look out the rear optics and see the object no more than 5 feet of the ground coming at me, then I hear the sound of a sonic boom as I see it break the sound barrier.
[wold brigade it was good working with you, there’s no way I can out run this missile] after a few seconds I see the missile come up right behind my tank and wolf 2 and 3 are still in formation.
[it was good working with you too sir]
[wolf 2 I’ve told you im not a sir I work for a living] was the last thing before the missile hit my tank. I was thrown into oblivion.
I slowly open my eyes. I look around and see im propped up against a tree and my tank is right in front of me in perfect condition. the rest of wolf brigade is here too.
“wait, im alive!” my yelling wakes up the rest of my crew and the others as well. They all look at me like im crazy. I look over to the commander of wolf 2, his name is Robert, hes about 6ft built like me, tall and muscular, he has light brown hair and blue eyes. He gets up and looks at me.
“Sargent where are we? Last thing I remember was watching that missile hit your tank” I look over to commander of wolf 3 Victoria, she's about 5 foot 6 inches dark brown hair and brown eyes, lightly tanned skin.
“Hey Victoria you alright over there?” she stand up and walks over towards me and Robert.
“Does anyone know where we are?” I ask to everyone, I remember a place like this but that was a child’s cartoon I got addicted too. I look over to Robert he's got nothing but Victoria seems a bit sheepish about what she thinks.
“Sargent I know what show you watch and with that you should know where we are” She was right I could easily tell we were in the Everfree Forest but how? Just how?
“Yeah I know this is the Everfree Forest but just how did we get here this is a child's show, right?”
“Well from the looks of it, this is no show” I look around to everyone is the group. And then I look over too our crews they seem to be chatting a few of them looking around in awe a few trying to hold in smiles from where they are.
“Ha I knew some of you guy's liked the show from when I caught you watching it over my shoulder!” the ones who were holding smiles just blushed when I said this. I look around and see our tanks are on a road that must lead to Ponyville.
“Alright everyone too your stations we are going to follow this road slow speed 20 miles per hour tops don’t want to scare the locals seems this place hasn't seen war, ever” I watch as everyone runs to their tank and get in one at a time, the last ones in are the commanders.
[comm's check]
[wolf 2 read's you loud and clear]
[wolf 3 reads you clear sir]
[alright everyone lets get going ill lead the way] I tell the driver to slowly follow the road. After a few minutes I spot a town in the distance, it looks like Ponyville.
[We can open our hatches commanders so we don’t scare the locals with our metal machines] we all open our hatches and stand on our seats so we can look out the top and see the locals with a better view.
“hey Sargent what do you think the mane six will look like in real life?” I look around and a lot of the buildings look just like the show but with a bit more realism.
“well since almost everything looks like it did in the show im guessing there gonna look the same” I see someone walk out of there house I see what looks like the human form of twilight except the legs below the knees are almost like that of a pony from the show.
“Um.. Victoria do you see that person, I think they are anthro here, not the actual ponies” she looks as surprised as I am to see this.
“maybe we should go meet them before they freak out”we slowly started towards the anthropic pony, she looks around because she hears the loud Clank! Clank! Clank! Of our tanks tracks as we aproach, I see her face go from shock to horrow before I speak.
“whoa, hey we wont hurt you I just want to know where I am” she is still too shocked to say anything, so I climb out of my tank and walk towards her.
“hello? Can you understand me?” All she does is nod her head in response still I little shocked from me appearing behind her in a giant steel machine.
“um.. where did you come from?” she finally was able to speak. I guess ill tell her the truth about me.
“well, I came from a world war on my world me and my brigade were hit by a missile and we woke up here” she goes from shocked to curios back to shocked.
“you must come with me” She has me walk over back to my tank and I see a bright flash then I look up and see a castle with high white walls that I dare not touch. I see a tall white person with wings on her back walking towards me I walk over to her and bow.
“It is my honor to meet you princess Celestia” she seems shocked that an out-lander knows her name.
“Well it is an honor to meet a gentlemen such as yourself” I reach out and take her hand and place a light kiss on it, not knowing the customs for greeting royalty here I do what I did when I met the Queen of England.
“So why has Twilight brought me to your presence?” By this point Robert and Victoria have climbed out of there tanks and are standing behind me.
“because I was the one who summoned you here” Me and Victoria and phased little, while Robert is flabbergasted.
“how did you bring us here?” We walk over to my tank which I promptly sit on the front along with the others.
“Well I made that town in the tundra, I used the explosion from that missile to push you through a barrier and I stopped damage form coming to you, your crews, and you vehicle” Were just shocked by how she did that in a different dimension.
“Okay now that we have that, WHY did you bring us here?” She look saddened by my question, then looks up at me.
“Because we need you and your machines of war” I must look like a fool just with my mouth sitting open like that. After a few minutes I find the courage to speak.
“Why do you need our tanks?” she looks behind her at Luna who just walked up behind her and Luna nods at her and she turns back to me.
“Because, we are now in what would be known to you as a World War” Why are they in a World War? And with WHO?
“With who are you at war with?”
“Several different nations, the largest one being the Griffin kingdom and then some smaller countries” I look at her my face getting its patented Sargent look.
“What do you need us to do?” She seems shocked by my front forwardness to help her with the war effort.
“I thought it was going to take more than that to get to help us, but we need to look at your tanks and copy them for our military then I need to make some modifications to them all and I need you guys to train new crews for the tanks for the war effort”
“Will do princess and what do you mean modifications?”
“A few things like a shield and a special modification that makes the engines not take fuel to run” I look at her in disbelief that the engines wont need fuel.
“Alright so when do we start?” she waves over some guards from the entrance towards us.
“tomorrow but for now you will be showed to the guest rooms and then you will go for training” I look in awe that she would treat soldiers from another world like her own but we practically are her soldiers now.
“Celestia if you don’t mind I don’t want the royal treatment and would rather have my men sleep in the barracks with the rest of the soldiers” Now its her turn to be in disbelief that I would request a cot rather than a soft bed.
“Very well, guards show our guests to the barracks where they will be sleeping and get them in and at home, goo bye and nice meeting you mister...”
“Hawkins, Sargent Hawkins, but since you are my CO you can call me Cordell, that’s my first name” with that I left with the guards for the barracks they are in a small corner of the castle with a small training yard I have Robert bring his tank over so we can start training in the morning. Celestia teleported mine and Victoria's to her mechanics for the upgrades to be installed. We got on our cots and slowly fell under the influence of sleep.
