The Battle for Equestria

Dimitri awoke in a forest, the last thing he remembered was fighting that USMC punk on a roof, then... getting gunned down by a Chinese jet. This made his head hurt. It was like he had a hangover. "Какого черта!" ("What the hell?") Dimitri said to himself, rubbing his (what he thought to be) hand on his temples, only to reveal two things. One: His head was shaped differently than what it used to be. Two: He had a hoof-like thing instead of hands. "Что ... я?" ("What... am I?") He said, staring at his black hoof. He shot up. He touched his face again. "Какая-то животного, может быть, лошадь?" ("Some sort of animal, maybe a horse?") Dimitri looked down at his body to see a pure black, pony shaped body with a bushy pure white tail coming out from his lower half.

"Что случилось?" ("What happened?")  Dimitri was confused. He decided to scan his surroundings. He was in a small clearing in a forest. It was dark around him, but since he was in a clearing, the trees let in a beam of light that highlighted Dimitri, and Dimitri only. Dimitri was uncomfortable knowing that he couldn't see into the dark forest, but the things in the dark forest could see him.

Everything was cartoon-ish, and less detailed than it was when he was alive. Dimitri was a semi-religious man, so he just assumed that he was in some sort of afterlife. Didn't really think the afterlife would involve him being a pony, but whatever.

Dimitri stood up, at first he stood up on his back two hooves, but then he realized that it really didn't fit the whole "Pony" thing.  He dropped onto all four legs. There was an audible growl from behind him. He turned to see a wolf that looked as though it was made of wood.

"О нет..." ("Oh no...") Dimitri complained, and got onto his back two legs. Standing in a unique fighting stance only taught in the Spetsnaz.  The wolf growled, seeing Dimitri move provoked it to attack. The wolf jumped at him, and he side stepped, allowing the wolf to hit the ground. He looked around quickly for anything he could use as a weapon.

Dimitri grinned wildly when he saw his Spetsnaz backpack lying on a rock about four feet away from him. He sprinted over to it (still on his back two legs) ducked under the wolf when it tried to pounce on him. He skidded to a halt, and pulled the machete out of the side pocket, he thought for a moment JUST a moment, about how he was grabbing a handle with a hoof, then he realized that he had some sort of invisible fingers extending from his hoof, just enough to pick up stuff and grab things.

Dimitri  got into a fighting stance, as the red eyed, wooden wolf growled in the darkness that they were now both standing in, as the wind pushed the trees in a certain way, so as the hole in the makeshift roof the tree leaves were making, was now covered up. Leaving the only light to be the red radiating from the wolf's eyes. The Russian ex-human, now pony scowled at the wolf. The wolf growled hatefully, and lunged, only to be hit with the blade. The wolf recoiled and whined in a ear-piercing high pitched fashion. The wolf tried, weakly, I might add, to scratch and claw at Dimitri's leg as he stepped on it's head, and crushed it, all the while the wolf was whining, and Dimitri was shushing it in a creepy, yet calming way.

After the dark deed was done, Dimitri wiped all of the sap off of his leg. He walked over to his bag, and opened it up. It was all there. His Spetsnaz clothing, his old styled gas mask that he wore in Shanghai because of the pollution. His AK-12 was clipped to the side of the backpack, and his MP-412 REX was in the holster. There were also several mags for his AK-12 and a few little cylinders for his revolver.

He grinned a devilish, handsome grin. Putting the back pack on like he would if he was a human.  Dimitri sighed, taking one last look at the wolf, then turning, and heading out.

Discord brought all of the Chinese soldiers to Equestria, and stood before them, He had let them freak out at first, them seeing themselves and their friends as ponies, and the fact that they were standing before a god. Judgement day. Discord, spoke up, standing tall before the crowd of ex-humans.

"Hello gentlemen." He said, his voice bellowed around the room, and echoed. All of the panic stopped as the Chinese crowd stared at Discord. "I wish I could explain how you got here in a more fulfilling way, but for now, let's just say it was magic." Discord laughed. "If you work for me, and work HARD for me, this can help all of you, and I, out. We will be in a better position than we ever have been."  The crowd looked at each other, and there was a bit of conversation. "Enough," Discord said, quieting the crowd. "Even though you are now ponies, I've granted you the ability to stand, and pick up stuff. You have invisible fingers in case you haven't found out yet."

Most of the ponies in the crowd stood up as soon as Discord mentioned that they had been granted the ability to stand.

"You will get your gear back soon, all I ask of is your loyalty, and the promise of not shooting me. Just a simple salute will show the message." Discord announced. Discord laughed maniacally as every single one there saluted, and applauded, as Discord's promises of better living than they had in China were too great to say no to.
