The vault of unforeseen memories. The story that was never known

     I don't know how long I've been on this planet, but I can't remember when I wasn't either. This has been my home since I woke up, this was always my home. I don't know if this is a question or a statement but, I've been nowhere else. I don't know why I can't remember anything of my past, but I don't care as well. It's been great so far and I've already stopped the Princesses from trying to get it back, I don't care about it anymore, all I care about is protecting my Princesses, it's such an honor to protect them as well. When I woke up from my sleep, I had know idea where I was and where I've been. It's a bit foggy but I think I can remember my awakening.

     "What do you think it is Luna.". Wha? where am I? Who's talking?

     "I know not of such a creature, it's not listed anywhere. Not even by Starswirl the bearded.". I sit up with my eyes closed, still tired from my slumber. I crawl out of the bed and stand up eyes still closed. I open my eyes to see to blurry figures in front of me, I can't see much without my glasses.

     "Who are you. Hold that thought let me get my glasses.". I reach in my poket and put on my glasses.

     "Now, who ar-". I turn around to see to horses with wings and horns. I grab for my machete but it's gone. So I grab the nightstand and hold it up ready to throw it.

     "You got ten seconds to tell me where I am, what you are, and who you are.". The blue ones's horn start to glow and my vision gets shrouded in a dark blue aura. Before I know it I'm in the air and I can't move.

     "Hey put me down you, you, you thing!".

     "How dare thou speak to us that way! With a stomp of a hoof I ca-". My vision is still blurry but I see the white on put a hoof up to the blue one.

     "Luna, put it down.".

     "But sister it-".

     "Luna?".

     "Fine.". I get my vision back but I fall strait to the floor.

     "Umph! You could lowered my down!". It chuckled.

     "I could've.".

     "That's it, I want answers. Where am I and how did I get here?". The white one speaks up.

     "You are in the kingdom of Equestria, Canterlot castle to be exact. I can't answer how you got here though.". I raise my eyebrow.

     "Why not?". It sighs and looks right in my eyes.

     "Because I have no idea.".

     "Commander Pete! Come on your gonna be late!". I turn around to see one of the guards that protect the Princesses as well, those ones are jerks.

     "Ya ya I'm coming, don't get your wings in a twist.". I hurry out the door and into the castle gardens where the chariots are waiting.

     "I was wondering when you'd get here commander Pete.". Celestia is sitting in one of three chariots.

     "Oh! Sorry Princesses I. Umm. Let's go.". Ugh. I. Hate. Flying. It's always been a fear of mine, but for some reason heights don't bother me. As we take off for the royal train station I take the time to admire the beautifully crafted char- ah who am I kidding! I'm sitting right in the middle of the thing trying not to look down. When we travel we always have separate chariots because I can't fly, I'm an Earth human. I've never seen a unicorn or pegusi human before, but I've never seen another human by that matter.

     "Commander Pete, why don't you look down and admire the land you're protecting?". I look to me left to see that the Princess Luna is right next to me.

     "Gah! Geez, Princess Luna, don't surprise me like that. Especially when we're (gulp) so high up.". This made her laugh.

     "Oh Pete, why are you so afraid of flying? You're not afraid of heights, what's the difference?".

     "I don't know, the movement maybe?".

     "Perhaps, oh look there's the train. Shall we?".

     "Yes, please.". As we descend Luna teleports back into her own chariot. Ground, ground, oh sweet ground!

     "This way Pete, this will be your first time at the Empire.". That was right, this would be my first guard duty at the Crystal Empire. As we load onto the train the other guards are setting up the stupid red carpet that unfolds when we open the door. As the train start rolling I notice the Princesses are looking at me with worried eyes. Around the other jerks I'm not allowed to talk to them unless they start. So knowing how long this ride is going to be I put my helmet my eyes, lean back, and drift to sleep.

     "Give up, worthless, nothing, own good, run, run, run, never stop, dead, all you know, gone, gone, gone.". The words are in my head once more and hurting like before but this is different. I'm in a room with a little boy and his parents. They seem so happy, it's warms my heart to see the parents. It's almost like I knew them before. Then I hear a screeching sound outside of the room, the door opens and ten men in suits run in. The Father is the first to react.

     "What are you doing!?". The leader looks back at the others and orders them to contain the child.

     "What are you doing!? Leave us alone!!!!". The team corners the child, he's done for, I try to help but I can't move. The mother grabs a frying pan and proceeds to try to stop the men.

     "Get away from my son you monsters!". One of men looks at her and socks her, right in the face. He then pulls out a gun... Points and fires. Then the world started to dissolve as the father grabs the child and runs out the back. The mothers scream and the gun fire is all I can hear.

     "NOOOO!!!!". I jerk awake. Not not knowing the Princesses were scared I went straight to the end of the train to think. I didn't care how cold it was, I needed to think. As I stepped onto the lookout I could finally think. Who was that kid? Why did that guy just kill her like that!? Were those people criminals, or just regular people, ugh every question is leading to the next.

     "Pete come inside, your gonna freeze out here.". I turn to see Celestia with a scarf, hat, hoof gloves, and other winter clothing.

     "In a minute, I need time to think.".

     "That was not a suggestion, it was an order.".

     "Fine...". I step inside the warm cart after Celestia and she motioned me to follow. As we enter the main cart I sit down a the nearest window seat to look over the snowy wasteland. After a few more hours I start to see the shield protecting the Empire. Finally this nightmare is over. As the other guards send out the carpet I walk in front to read the stupid greeting speech.

     "Now presenting the your royal highnesses! Princess Celestia and Princess Luna!". A pink alicorn approaches them but I quickly stand in her way. I then send down a endless stare as she looks up at me.

     "Stand down Commander Pete.". I look up to she the one and only Shining Armor, captain of the guard.

     "As you wish captain.". I step aside to let her through, they then proceed to exchange hugs.

     "So your the famous Pete eh? I looked through your records, you went through the ranks pretty quickly.". I never looked down a him as he talked.

     "Yes I did, why such an interest?".

     "Well you're the first and only non pony Guard we have, why somepony not take a second look. Anyways after we get to the castle, would you like me to give you a tour?".

     "No, I have a responsibility. Maybe I'll come back when I'm on vacation. Until then I must stay with the Princesses.". I start to walk away when I hear Shining whisper to the pink alicorn.

     "I see Co. Captian written all over his face.".
