Authors Note

Okay, so the story didn't go that well, and I know it by the comments and sheer amount of confusion in this fic, first off.

I didn't give any background to the marines, it was preety rushed and misleading, some say.
A complete mind-fuck.

Sorry for dissappointing you readers, this fic doesn't deserve that much attention, and neither do my writing skills.

But anyways, thank you for staying with me this whole time!

Sorting It Out : 1

It has been three long, pain filled years since Twilight had a glimpce of Rick. She was now spending her days researching Canterlot's library on dimensional travel and unknown species. But for years she hasn't found anything useful. What if it was all just a hallucination or something created in her mind by impact?
But she kept on reading, scavanging every piece of information across Equestria that she could get her hooves on.

Twilight was now sitting in a middle of a study room in Canterlot, books, notepads, pieces of paper and scrivbles were around her. The whole room was a mess, that's when Spime came in, the door slowly creaking open, revealing a medium sized dragon.

"Twilight, you haven't slept in weeks, you haven't even talked to your friends, anyway you have a visitor." Spike dissappeared from sight, after a few seconds Trixie entered the study room.
Twilight looked up in surprise.
"T-Trixie?" Twilight tilted her head. Trixie trotted over to Twilight, taking a seat next to her.
"Trixie is sor-" her speech was cutoff by herself, she realized that she was speaking in third person. She cleared her throat and began.
"Twilight, you've been here for years. You need to communicate with somepony, we're fearing for your own health. We want yo-." Trixie was interrupted rudely by Rainbow Dash. Her body and wings had grown in size and beauty.
"You need to get a life, egghead." Rainbow frowned.
"I know how to take care of myself." Twilight protested.
"By wasting your precious life on books?" Rainbow eyed Twilight.

"Rainbow is right, Twi, 'ya need ta git a life." Applejack entered the room and stood next to Rainbow Dash. Same as Dash she had grown in size and beauty. Twilight frowned and lowered her head. "So I guess my friends are against me, thought as much." Twilight sighed. Trixie placed a hoof on her shoulder. "Twilight, we're not against you, we're with you." Trixie smiled. Twilight shrugged Trixie off. "Please, just leave me alone, you're only making it worse." Twilight buried her head into her front hooves.

Trixie, Applejack and Rainbow Dash exchanged glances, and nodded in agreement. "Okay Twi, we'll leave 'ya alone, jus' ta explain yerself ta Princess Celestia, have a nice day." Applejack turned around and walked out. "I thought you were beter than that, egghead." Rainbow did the same as Applejack. Trixie stood up. "Okay Twilight, I'll see you in a few years..." Trixie's words trailed off as she exited the room.

Twilight was alone again, her friends only tried to help her overcome her problems, but she's denying it. All that was on her mind was Rick Anderson, the Marine that arrived and left. Looks like he made a 'mistaken arrival' for the worse. He had ruined a perfectly smart unicorn's life, he broke it into pieces, which left them for her to collect. All night, all day, all week, all.month, it proceeded into years, will Twilight be like this for the rest of her life, desperate and heartbroken, lonely and friendless?
At least that's what she thought, she had friends to support her, to help her out in any situation she was in. She wasn't friendless, they were her loyal friends.

Twilight sighed in defeat as she dropped her head, sobbing quietly, until she broke out. Tears began rolling from her eyes, down to her cheeks and into the wooden floor, the wood absorbed the wet moisture.
Trixie was still outside, she was about to leave until she heard somepony crying. It was Twilight. Trixie quickly entered the room and saw Twilight in emotional pain. Trixie's reaction was to run over to Twilight and comfort her in any way possible. She did as her brain insisted. Trixie slowly took a seat next to the emotionally broken unicorn.
"Shhh...it's alright, don't need to break yourself." Trixie nuzzled Twilight's neck in comfort. "Shhh...quiet now, I'm here, everything's going to be alright, I promise." Trixie's warm words calmed Twilight down to a sobbing state, Twilight leaned against Trixie's side, taking in the warmth. "T-thank you, Trixie." For the first time in months Twilight smiled, Trixie wrapped a hoof around Twilight, snuggling her closer.

"Tell me what's bothering you Twi." Trixie started.
"I-it's Rick..." Twilight said bluntly. "Who is Rick?" Trixie asked. "It's a long s-story, and I'm preety tired right now. Maybe some other time?" Twilightbl yawned. "Sure, whatever you wish." Trixie began to stand up, only go be interrupted by Twilight. "Wait! C-could you stay, I'm feeling kinda..." she trailed off. "Lonely?" Trixie position herself comfortably next to Twilight. "Thanks, Twixie." She giggled, and Trixie quickly blushed at her nickname. "Twi, d-don-... I like it." they both smiled.

Soon, sleep was taking their visions away, Twilight was the first one to fall asleep, followed by Trixie.
They were warmly snuggled against eachother, supporting their weight, the study room's fireplace illuminated their bodies in the dark room. Both with smiles on their faces, warming eachother.

"Looks like Trixie and Twilight are finally getting along, hope that helps her out a bit." Dash spied on them through the door's keyhole. "Ain't that cute, do you think that Twi is a fillyfooler?" Dash looked at Applejack.
"Whatever makes 'er happy, Ah jus' wanna see 'er happy. Don't you Rainbow?" Applejack smiled at Rainbow Dash. "Yep, whatever makes her life sparkle again."

"Who's Rick anyway?" Dash started to ask.
"We should prob'ly not mess in 'er business." Applejack slightly forwned. "But how can we help if we don't even know the problem, huh?"
"Ah guess yar righ', bu' not now, gottam get some sleep." Applejack yawned as she trotted out of sight. Rainbow Dash sighed and followed AJ's steps.

Tomorrow is the day that Twilight's friends reveal her secret she had kept inside for years. They will found out about Rick and the human race, they decide if Princess Celestia will be involved. Can the human race do anything about it, or they simply don't exist. Maybe they are just in Twilight's mind.

They may need some medical help to check if Twilight's mental condition is stable.

Sorting It Out : 2

Twilight was lying in Canterlot's hospital bed. Currently being diagnosed for any unusual brain activity. At the same thought, a white stallion with a scientific lab coat entered the patient room. With a dissappointed expression on his face.

"Miss Twilight Sparkle, we might have some bad news, it's about your current mental state." Twilight eyed him carefully.
"You have built up 'amnesia' for the past few years, it was caused by anti-socializing, you haven't talked to anypony in years, and this was the result." the stallion continued on. "Also, your brain capacity has significantly dropped to a ridicously small level. It means that your brain could store a specific amount of information, many of the books you have read will be forgotten. Even you won't recognise some of your close friends. Also your nervous system has reflexed upon these changes, making you highly agressive towards others. We're sorry Miss Twilight, there wasn't any magic or surgery that could revert these effects." the white stallion turned around, ready to walk out.

"Wait!"

The stallion looked over his shoulder to Twilight. "Yes, Miss Sparkle?"
She slumped down on the bed, loss for words. The stallion nodded and exited the room, leaving Twilight alone. She sighed.

A few minutes passed until somepony entered the room.
"Umm...Twilight...are you okay...?" that sweet, shy voice that sounded like squeaks could only be long to one, yellow pegasus with a pink mane dandling over her eye. Twilight turned her head to face Fluttershy. "We just came to visit you Twi, how are you feeling?" Fluttershy asked, without receiving an answer from the lavender unicorn. "Come in." Fluttershy spoke as a cyan blue pegasus entered the room, it was Rainbow Dash, followed by Rarity and a orange mare that Twilight did not recall. She was followed by a non-bouncy, not so happy Pinkie Pie.
Twilight looked at the orange mare, her mane was blond, the tip tied up, she was wearing a cowpony hat, freckles at her cheeks, and three red apples as her cutie mark.
"W-who are you?" Twilight asked, exhausted. The five mare's eyes opened went, their irises sunk tiny as Twilight pounced that question.
"Y-you don't remember Applejack?!" Rainbow Dash's eyes began to tear up. "Never heard of a Applejack." Twilight said bluntly. "Y-ya don' remember me?" the orange earth pony took a step back. "Don't ya remember, Ah was the element of honesty!" Applejack began to form tears. "Look, I don't need a random mare stepping in my hospital bed!" Twilight's nervous system began to boil up."How could you say tha'?!" Applejack's eyes released tears. "Ah thought we were friends forever!" Applejack leapt her head into Dash shoulders, tears puring doen freely.

This was causing more pain to everypony, especially the Mane Six, which were five because Twilight's memories were wiped. How could she forget the element of honest? How was it possible.

"Don't worry AJ, I'm sure Twi will come back to her senses." Dash nuzzled Applejack. Applejack and Rainbow Dash exited the room, leaving the four remaining mares behind.
"What happened to you Twilight? How could you possibly forget about Applejack? Pinkie sobbed. "I've built up amensia, anything could trigger it, even now. And a part of my mind was ereased from existance, I forgot about that orange mare because she was the first one I met when I arrived in Ponyville." Twilight dropped her head in defeat and sighed. "That's it then, no more friendship and 'the Elements of Harmony', it was a waste of my life. If it wasn't for you five, this might've never happened, I would still be in the Canterlot library, under the command of Nightmare Moon." there was a slight pause.

"I regret that I met you."

Pinkie backed away from Twilight. "Y-you don't mean it, you're still our friend." Pinkie gave a fake smirk. "I regret every second that I've spent with you, I wish I never met you at the first place." Twilight closed her eyes. Rarity and Fluttershy stood aside in awe at Twilight's words. The friendship bond has been broken, there ws no turning back now. Frienship is not Magic.

A dark cloud rested over Equestria, saying that they were separated, was this the fate of ponykind? Celestia is helpless, without the Elements of Harmony, Equestria was vurnerable for any and all. Celestia had to seek help from someONE, she had no other choice, she needs for Twilight to remember Applejack, she needs them to be in a friendship again. But how? Somepony has to figure this failure.

"Twilight, you're bring disobidiant!" her mother scowled.
"I don't give a damn, old hag!" Twilight striked back. Her mother approached her. "Call me that name again, it will be a BIG mistake missy." Twilight's mother whispered in her ear.
"Old. Hag." Twilight mocked her own mother again. Receiving a hoof slap across her face. (Hoof slap? I don't even...)
Twilight growled. "You're a grown mare, and you're still acting like a foal. What has happened to you my dear?" She brushed the slapped cheek. "I'm sorry for that." (Me gusta) Twilight sighed. "Mom, there's something I need to tell you." Twilight began. "Whatever it is dear, you can spill it out dear, I'm always listening." she smiled.

"Mom, I'm-..."

Chapter 1

Mistaken arrival
Chapter 1: Misfortune

The soldiers riding in the Humvee, each bump made them jump into the air then restrained by the seatbelts.

“Yo sarge, where is this place we’re going to?” A young male soldier asked the driver. “Trigger 101, we’re gonna meet Sgt. Foley there”

The young soldier sat back down, looking through the bulletproof window of the Humvee. He grabbed his M4A1 from the seat next to him, locked and unlocked the safety, sliding in and out the magazine, playing around with the ACOG scope.

“Yo, don’t play with that, you’ll end up shooting your foot or dick” They both laughed. “What time is it, I’m hungry bro” The young solider spoke as looking at his watch. The clock showed 00:00, the tapped it, fiddled with it, it still said 00:00. “Hey something is wrong with my watch, is says midnight” It wasn’t midnight at all, the sun glare was beating down so hard, it made the metal Humvee hot on touch. The sergeant looked at his watch, it showed 00:01, he shrugged, ignoring the broken watch, then he saw something spinning, the red LED compass was freaking out, turned around as if it was in the Bermuda Triangle, he tapped it, still spinning.

The young soldier opened a plastic bottle of water, drank half of it down, removing leftover water from his lips, he plunged his head back, sighing.

”Man this is boring, I ‘wanna see some action, fighting and shit!” He’s mind was torn away; all he thought about was fighting, looking to kill someone. As minutes passed the ground became softer not bumpy like before, they were on grass, soft green field, their eyes opened as they saw a tiny windmill still running.

“What the hell, what is this place yo?”
“Wait we were in the desert about 2 minutes ago and now we are in a green field with a stupid tiny windmill in front of us?”

They looked at each other, looking back the desert was gone, only greenery to be seen for miles straight.

“Alright, get your weapon this is weird man, totally weird I don’t like it.” The sergeant spoke worried.

The young soldier grabbed his rifle and squeezed the handle; the stock was ready at his shoulder ready to fire. They looked around but there was nothing, emptiness.

The sergeant took out a heat sensor, seeing a reactivity spike up ahead, 2 miles. The young one placed a pair of binoculars in front of his eyes. He saw something yellowy brown bounce about, as he turned over to it, it was a pony, a pony with a hat, long blond hair and 3 apples on her flank.

“What the fuck?” The young soldier confused handed the binoculars over to the sergeant. “Yo, look, what the hell is that?"

As the sergeant looked over to the pony he dropped his jaw, removing the binoculars from his line of sight.

“I do fucking believe it’s a fucking pony in a fucking hat with a fucking tattoo.” The sergeant complied “Any better?”

The soldier shook his head, they stepped out of the vehicle looking around, now the pony was closer to them still out of sight.

“A’ight we gotta’ report this to HQ now!”

The sergeant took a small radio from his shoulder pocket.

“HQ come in this is unit patrol -12-32-12-“
The radio was static for a while but a response came.

*static* “Patrol unit 12-32-12 this is HQ anything to report?” “Yes we do, by means we really do, we were patrolling the grid area you gave us, and then we popped into a green field! The radio was static but came back to life. “Confirm that you’re on grid 0754281” *static*. They both checked the map. “We don’t have a confirmation, over” The sergeant swallowed hard. “Currently working on satellite footage, over and out”

The radio when static

They stood up, looking around seeing the yellow-brown pony walking towards them. They both grabbed their weapons, aiming through the scopes, pointing directly at the pony’s head. They slid their goggles on, expecting the worse, as she walked near them, the soldiers heard a tune coming from her, and she gazed upon them, much taller and bigger.

“Howdy partners!”

The pony said in a cowboy-Texan accent. The soldiers looked at each other, loss for words.

“WHAT THE HELL MAN JESUS CHRIST!” The young soldier shouted as pointing the gun towards her head, it was definitely a female, her body shape, tone and accent. They were confused, a talking pony? Out of nowhere? Please.

The marines turned around laughing acting as if were a hallucination

Probably >_>

Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Accept or Decline

As they turned around, they asked themselves a question in their minds, was it real?
A talking pony pooped out of nowhere with a little cowboy hat on it?

"Now why y'all ignoring me, what in the hay is that metal box, and you look strange, never seen creatures like you before"
She spoke to them, they didn't listen. "Oh damn it man, what the hell?" The young soldier asked as rubbing his chin.

The sergeant shifted his eyes left and right, squeezing his pistol.
"O.K. woo," He swallowed hard. "Should we talk to it?" He asked.

"You two a'ight back there?" The yellow pony asked looking at the metal box in front of her.
They turned around, making eye contact with the pony's large eyes.
"Um... wow... so... where are we?" The young soldier asked looking over the sarge.
The yellow pony took a step back, fearing that something will happen.

"You are... in... um... Equestria?" The pony answered, it didn't seem like an answer, but a question.
The marines were confused, Equestria, where on earth was that, or was it even on earth?

Their eyes gaping on each other, squeezing the handles of the rifles, ready for something to happen.
The pony took another step back, then another, as it began to run from the marines.

"Well what do you know, you scared it, her, whatever!" The young soldier spoke as looking at the running pony.
The sergeant sighed and looked back at the Humvee.
The radio came to life, "All ground units, I repeat all ground units need to go to the nearest safe zone, there are a few marked on your maps, good luck"
The radio died down, "What the hell was that for?" The sarge asked.
Looking over the sky they saw a rainbow, not curved, just a straight rainbow.
The marines entered the Humvee, each lighting a cigarette.
"So what now, rolling again?" The young soldier asked the sarge.
"Yep *puffing the cigar* we are resuming patrol as usual, nothing happened, no talking ponies appeared, or anything at all"
He started the engine a loud roar was heard, then the rubber wheels spun on the grass.

As they drove across the green fields they came across a town, unreasonably colorful and small.
They stopped, their eyes gaping as to see a large number of ponies walking around, with wings, horns.
The sarge smacked his head against the seat. "Fuck! What the hell, okay ugh..."
He sighed, confused and angry to what he saw. With rage he stepped out.
No one saw him, so he had to make it, the sarge was standing on a path way in the middle of the town.

"ALRIGHT!" He shouted, cocked his rifle.
All the eyes were on him, staring, they never seen a creature like that before, it was all covered in light brown, it didn't have any fur, just skin.
"I don't know how we got here but I want answers, this place is full of talking ponies, that is a RIPOFF, now you tell me what I want to know or I'm gonna how to use force, by any means for the US Army."
The ponies confused, some grinned, some scared, but no pony answered.
The sarge looked around, "Fine" thinking is his brain, he saw an apple standing, he aimed through the red dot sight.
He shot and the apple exploded into pieces, scattered around. The young soldier looked through the window and saw what the sarge was doing, his though: What the hell?..
He stepped out, patting the sarge on the shoulder, "Come on man, probably some kind of prank from the US?"
The sarge looked at him, his eyes bloodshot, his teeth crackling.
"Wow, dude, you alright?" The young soldier asked as looking at the sarge's face.

Then something happened, a large white pony with sparkling hair, a long spiky horn and big beautiful wings, landed in front of them with a metal stump, they looked at it, some pony shouted. "Princess Celestia!"
The soldiers looked at each other "Princess, Jesus this is getting weirder and weirder by every second, I think I smoked too much. The sarge thought to himself.
Beside the pony princess two white Pegasus ponies were holding place on her sides.
"Strangers" The Princess spoke in a royal, loud voice.

END OF CHAPTER 2

Chapter 3

Chapter 3: Support

They stood around a pony crowd, all their eyes on them, even more the Princess standing in front if them, they were in danger, afraid to be attacked, to be tortured.
But no such thing has happened, the ponies welcomed any strangers, happy.
The marines locked in a stare with the Princess, one of them swallowed.
It was quiet, no one spoke.
The sarge cleared his throat as beginning to speak up, squeezing the stock of the rifle.
"As.. we were patrolling normally, we ended up here, with no doubt it wasn't the desert, at first we were confused by the sight and more shocked to see.. talking... ponies." His body trembled.
"I see... The princess looked over the Humvee. "And what is that contraption?" She asked them
"That is our vehicle, transportation device, so to speak." The young marine broke into the conversation.

Celestia took a closer look, she tapped it, it was obviously metal.
"What is your target here?" She downed her head and raised her eyes.

The marines looked at each other. "We're not meant to be here, as I just told, we were traveling the desert, you know full of sand and Taliban soldiers waiting to sniper your head off." The sarge responded to the Princess's question.

She looked at him confused. "Taliban, sniper, soldier, I don't know what your talking about, do you know where you are?"
She rose a bit higher, showing her length.
The marines sighed, scratching their necks, the young one rose up his rifle to his chest showing it off.
"And what is that, may I ask?" Celestia looked over the black long, that looked like a tube with an small ending.

He began to speak but was interrupted by radio chatter.
"Advising all ground units to take cover, multiple sightings of an AC-103 in the air."

Another voice came from the small radio in the sarge's shoulder pocket.
"AC-103 ABOVE, REPEAT ENEMY 103 IS IN THE AIR TAKE COVER IMMEDIATELY!"

They staggered, shocked that their area of battle is being flatted.

The two marines ran to the Humvee, starting the engine with a loud BANG from the exhaust, they drove off.

Without any seat belts, they began driving to the direction where they came in.

As driving more radio chatter was heard. "Taking heavy fire, un... *static* enemy, re *static* ing ba *static* p *static*.

They drove, feeling the bumps again, looked around, brown, everything was brown, as they looked around, in the desert again.
Seeing the battlefield between their men and unknown fighters, the Humvee stopped, the young soldier went to the back and took out a sniper rifle, M21, full magazine and semi auto, he went on top of the Humvee and aimed through, seeing the enemy they were Afghans.
He shot, first kill head shot.

Second shot, he missed.
Then he saw a Afghan shooting his AK at him from the distance, it took his shoulder, stumbled over the roof and fell into the sand.
He was picked up by the sarge, holding his hand and stood back up.

Then they saw it, the AC-130 flying above their heads.
It fired off a few shots, the two marines began running from it's sight but it was too high, it can still see them, the rockets exploded, the marines jumped as the explosion behind them forced it.

Falling behind couple of big rocks, hidden from the flying killing machine.
The young soldier was bleeding, his shoulder wound has opened, moaning with pain, the sarge quickly took a bandage roll and wrapped it around the wound, applying pressure.
"Your gonna be fine, hold it" The sarge left the young marine, going over to the Humvee he took the rifles.
He got back to the marine and handed him his rifle. "Can you carry it?" He asked as the young marine cocked it.
"Sure as hell, I'm not gonna get shot again" He stood up, for a moment time froze, the sarge was about to say GET DOWN but it was too late, a white-red puff of smoke began raising from the marine's helmet, it was a metal sound.
He stumbled into the sand laying motionless, the sarge checked him.
He was dead, it was a sniper kill, went through the one side and the other.
Rage built up as he was watching the young dead marine, laying on the sand.
His eyes still open, the sarge closed them.
The sarge heard rapid fire from somewhere.

RA-TA-TA-TA-TA-TA-TA-TA-TA

Then the radio spoke
"Five seconds*

END OF CHAPTER 3

Chapter 6

Chapter 6

“Now you be a good pony, and explain everything to us, or things will get real harsh” the commander spat, looking at the purple pony with disgust.

“Uh, um, y-you-“ the pony stuttered in fear, the creature in front of her was large, she was simply at his mercy, looking up to him trying to figure out what to say.

“Hey, you shouldn’t be that bad with the pony!” the young soldier spoke from the back. The general turned around looking at his eyes, he proceeded towards him.

“Well look at this, Private Don’t harm the pony, what you think this is, a walking expedition or what?” The general was angry with him; he shifted his eyes left and looked back at the young marine.

“Now be quiet, another word from you, I’m going to send your ass back where it came from!” the general spat at the floor and turning back to the pony.

“You going to tell us where we are, or I’m going to force you” he was breathing on the pony’s face, she coughed, it smelled like cigarettes and bad breath, she turned away her head, avoiding the smell.

“You’re in E-Equestria” the pony spoke in fear. She looked at the young marine again, only to see him sat down on the grass. She sighed.

What were they doing here, they won and there was nothing to do except going back to base, the marines didn’t seem too enthusiastic about meeting and talking to the ponies. They were tired and hungry, most of them letting their guard down by snoozing for a few seconds.

The general sighed and looked at the soldiers, “Okay men, you can go around and try to communicate with these, creatures” with that, the general walked off to the helicopter.

The marines walked past Twilight without even taking a glimpse at her, only the young marine was there, sat on the grass his face buried between his legs and arms. She quietly walked over him and noticed that he was sobbing. “Hey, are you okay?” she asked him putting her hoof on his shoulder. He raised his head, tears pouring down his cheeks his eyes blood shod from crying.

“My name is Twilight Sparkle, what’s yours?” she asked him with a fake smile, Twilight knew he was sad, but why. “My name is Private Anderson” he stopped sobbing and stood up, Twilight’s hoof slid off his shoulder. Anderson wiped his tears with his arm.

“Nice to meet you Twilight, I hope we’re going to be good friends.” Twilight never thought having another creature that can talk, most of the Everfree Forest monsters were vile and didn’t speak. She saw this as an opportunity to study their species, how they live, multiply, are they intelligent, Twilight was always into this when meeting something or someone new. “So may I ask what species are you?” she asked with a smile, it warmed the marine’s heart and couldn’t resist smiling back. “We are humans, mostly locked in a constant war between each other, like now” he lowered his head and looked away. “What kind of war?” she looked at him straight in the eyes, expecting a simple answer. “War, war never changes, since our ancestors, millions and millions of years back, discovered the killing power of rock and bone. They were driven into murdering each other, for money, lust and revenge, after years of technology and weaponry passed, the death toll was even larger. New firearms were created, killing a man in seconds if not minutes, simple torturing with gas, millions died, if humans were not reproducing, the planet would’ve be long gone, still upon the uncountable deaths, war still continued, it never stopped, it won’t stop. Truth is, the game was rigged from the start” he sat again, looking at Twilight.

She looked at him with a puzzled look, trying to process what he just said, her heart sank as she understood, and she lowered her body and squeaked. “T-that’s horrible, how could you live like this?!”

“That’s just the cycle of life, you meet people, you love people, and you kill people” he answered, still looking into Twilight’s gaze. “Y-you mean, you killed some of your own species?!”

He nodded.

Twilight was imagining killing one of her friends; she shook her head violently and stepped in front of the marine whose face was buried again. “Hey, you don’t need to worry, it’s going to be fine, Equestria is a peaceful land” Twilight patted Anderson on his shoulder, he rose his head looking into her deep purple eyes. They locked themselves for a few minutes, time passed by as they sat there, looking at each other, and not breaking eye contact.

Twilight shifted herself near the marine almost touching shoulders, she smiled, and he smiled back. It was warm, not from the sun, somewhere from inside.

“Alright men listen up, we can’t stay here through the night, we need shelter, in half an hour, we will go into a place called ‘Ponyville’, maybe the residents there would have somewhere for us to stay.” The general spoke to the marines.

“Why don’t we just go back home?” a marine called out.

“We can’t, the desert is too dark for travelling, so we stay here for tonight and figure things out in the morning” the general stated as he started walking down by a path that leads into the town.

“Wow, looks like you’re staying in Ponyville after all!” Twilight gave Anderson a big warm smile that pleased him.

“Come on, I want you to meet my friends, they’re in town sleeping, it’s kind of late so let’s go!” Twilight was enthusiastic about inviting a new friend over.

The marines and pony walked down the path.

Chapter 7

Chapter 7

As Anderson and Twilight were walking down the path, he noticed that she was looking at him. “Everything alright?” asked Anderson as staring into the pony’s eyes.

Twilight looked away. “I’m fine, just a bit chilly” a little smile appeared on her face, Twilight raised her head and looked at the marine. “So, why did you join the...”

“Military?”

“Yeah, why did join it?” she asked with a raised eyebrow. “Because, there wasn’t a way around it, when I was child-“Anderson was interrupted by a rumbling coming from the bushes.

A creature jumped out, it had the body of a lion, a scorpion's tail, and a pair of wings. It opened its’ mouth showing the shark-like rows of sharp teeth. “What the hell is that thing?” Anderson stated before pulling out his M9 from its holster, turning off the safety and pointing it right at the monster’s face. “T-that’s a manitcore, it’s extremely dangerous and rare” Twilight stood behind Anderson, trembling at his feet. “Alright, is it a man eater?” he asked without looking away “More of a pony eater”

“Hey what the hell are you doing with that pony- holy shit, what is that thing?!” another marine stepped beside Anderson, picking up his Scar-H and pointing it at the manticore’s face. “Is it dangerous?” the marine asked. The manticore took a step forward with a thud, and then made a trumped like roar. “I guess it is” Anderson stated. “Alright, we’re taking it down” Twilight heard this, before shouting out for not to kill it, a series of loud bangs exploded near her ears. She squeaked and curled up to a ball. It only lasted a few seconds before the noise died down, so did the manticore, it’s lifeless body fell to the ground with a fleshy thud, it had several holes in its body, blood trailed down the grass.

Twilight saw it, it was dead; she took a few steps back ready to run from the marines. As she was walking backwards she stumbled on a rock and fell. She opened her eyes, only to see that Anderson was handing out his hand, she placed her hoof on it, and Anderson closed his hand, lifting Twilight up. She accidently bumped her head into his chest, it was warm, and she could feel his heartbeat.

She wrapped her front hooves around his thigh, only to be picked up, he was strong, he lifted her and set Twilight on the ground, she looked away, she blushed, and her cheeks hot red. “I uh, sorry for that” Twilight lowered her head down in embarrassment.

“Come on, we should get to the library soon, its late” Twilight stated as turning around and continuing walking.

They approached a small town, ridiculous amount of color, no one was outside, Twilight and Anderson approached a big tree. “Here it is the library” Twilight stated as walking to the door and opening it with magic. “Come in” the doorway was too small for him, so he crouched and entered.

It was the inside of a tree, carved out into a library, there were so many books lying around bookshelves. It was warm, a homely feeling ran through him. Anderson looked around his surroundings.

“Wow, nice place Twilight!” he smiled, Twilight was ruffling through a little brown box, but she came out with nothing. “Here have a seat” she pointed her hoof to a couch; Anderson sat down, only to stand up again.

“Private come here!” the general shouted from outside. Anderson stepped out only to see a few marines in woodland ghillie suits that fit the grass perfectly.

“Here put this on and take this, I need you to go up on that hill, you’re over watch for this night.” The general handed him a woodland ghillie suit and all that comes with it, a M21 semi-auto sniper rifle and a few magazines. Anderson sighed and turned back to the tree house only to see Twilight standing in the doorway. “So, you won’t be able to stay would you” she let out a soft sigh and walked back in closing the door behind her.

He took off his helmet and dropped it down in a box full of military accessories; he put on his ghillie suit and cocked the sniper rifle.

Anderson walked to the little hill and set himself up; he laid down into a prone position and aimed through the sniper’s scope. He looked over the tree house; the windows were lit, warm and cozy inside. He moved his scope to the right only to be blinded by an orange color. He dropped the sniper and looked up, it was Scootaloo, smiling. “Hey, what are you doing?” she asked him quietly. “Isn’t it late for a little pony like you?” Anderson smiled at the pony “Wait you are a pony and have wings?” he asked looking at the little wings. “Yep, I’m a Pegasus pony, means I can fly!” Scootaloo sprang her wings wide open, they were still small, but a cute sight, she folded them into her sides “I was kinda bored, I saw you walk over here, can I sit next to you?” she asked him, still the little smile on her face. “Okay, come here” Scootaloo walked over Anderson’s left shoulder and lay down; she rested her head on his shoulder.

Anderson was tired, he thought he was going to have a good night sleep over Twilight’s, but that was wrong, he was stationed as an over watch sniper, but what for, the Afghans couldn’t be here in Equestria, could they?

He yawned and looked at Scootaloo, she was sleeping “Aww” he brushed her mane with his hand. His lids slipped shut, Anderson fell asleep, and he knew that it was dangerous to leave a loaded weapon near a young pony, but he couldn’t do anything about it, exhausted, he couldn’t help it. He fell asleep.

He dreamed.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

“Get up Private Anderson, get in line and support those marines, GO!” Anderson stood up picking up a ‘SAW’ light machine gun and slid down the dirt. He began shooting at a random direction, he couldn’t see the enemies, “Friendly fire, friendly fire!” a marine shouted out, telling him to cease. “Oh shit, he’s dead!” another marine called out from behind, Anderson dropped the machine gun. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

He woke up with a gasp, sweat running down his forehead, he looked over Scootaloo, which was still sleeping quietly, he sighed and began scanning the area with his M21.

Chapter 8

Chapter 8

It was dark; Anderson couldn’t see a thing, only his M21 and the little Pegasus pony next to him. It was sleeping quietly, no snort or any noises. He could even hear the breathing of the pony. It was also silent, too silent. He removed his eye from the scope and took a look around.

There was nothing, emptiness, not even a single soul outside at this time, he looked back through the sniper’s scope, Anderson saw some green light coming from a bush, and he moved the scope to the bush, only to see two large glowing green circles. “Huh?” he thought in his mind. It rose, it was a man, but Anderson couldn’t make anything else out from the darkness. It definitely saw him as it had night vision goggles.

Anderson heard a shot; it was a sniper, probably a .338 caliber round. He heard the impact near him, his first thought was Scootaloo, he looked over her, and she was fine, still sleeping. Then he felt sudden change on his left kneecap, it was penetrated, half of the bone was taken away by the shot. He grunted, not feeling the pain, he touched it, still nothing. His whole leg felt numb, he couldn’t move it, as if wasn’t a part of him anymore. Then he felt his chest burn, he clutched himself, curling up to a ball, Scootaloo woke up from the sudden commotion of unrecognized language.

“Asaan!” A man, his face covered with different types of clothing, his actual clothes were ripped robes, his skin was darker, more of a yellowy orange. He was holding something, Scootaloo recognized it as a weapon, He was standing a few feet away from Scootaloo, he saw her, and the man pointed up his gun at Scootaloo, shouting something again.

“Dalee” after that, a more men in scruffy robes came over behind him, with weapons. They came closer and close, not noticing the ghillied marine.

“Aas” one of them spoke, walking towards Scootaloo, she took a few steps back from them, only to bump into a rock and fall.

“Aahista” again the robed man spoke, he suddenly fell to the ground, screaming in pain, he reached his thigh there was a knife stuck, he dropped his weapon and rolled. The other two began shooting in different directions, their weapons creating loud bangs at every second, Scootaloo covered her ears, only to feel something penetrating her left hoof, she screamed, tears began rolling down her cheeks as she dropped on the grass.

“M-mommy” she squeaked, she knew that she didn’t have any parents, Scootaloo was often taken care of by other ponies for some time, spending days and months with her little friends. She broke out into a cry, Anderson saw what happened, he rose up from the grass, surprising the two Afghans, he took out an M9 pistol and another knife, she pulled the trigger, it went straight into the afghan’s face, then he jammed the knife into the other’s neck. They both fell, blood squirting out.

Anderson looked over the little orange filly; it was crying in pain, curled up to a ball, her head buried between her hooves. He saw that she was bleeding on her left hoof, he quickly descended down to Scootaloo, crouched, he looked at the wound, the bullet went through, “Oh my god, Scoot!” he picked her up, ignoring the pain chest, he walked as quickly as he can to the library. He looked to his left, to see a pickup truck and a barrel lit with fire next to it, there were several Afghans standing around it, armed to the teeth.

Anderson kicked the library door, opening it. He walked in closing it with his leg. He looked around and set Scootaloo and the couch “Twilight!” he shouted across the library, a yawning pony descended down the stairs looking at Anderson.

“Oh, umm, what are you doing here so early?” Twilight spoke in a sleepy voice.

“It’s Scootaloo she’s been wounded!”

Twilight looked at Scootaloo only to be taken back by shock, the little filly was crying, her eyes squeezed out tears, and her mouth was open, her left hoof had a hole in it, blood coming out, spraying the couch in red. Then Twilight looked at Anderson’s leg, his kneecap was almost taken off, a bit of bone hanging by a fat string of flesh, she covered her mouth at the wounded marine and filly.

“We’ve got to get you two to Nurse Redheart now!” Twilight shouted, still shocked by the sight. She ran over Scootaloo, looking at her. Twilight tried to say something but she couldn’t stand the sight of a hurt filly. Then looked over Anderson’s kneecap “Doesn’t that hurt?” she asked him.

He sighed sitting next to Scootaloo “It’s feels numb, no, it doesn’t hurt” he turned away from Twilight looking at Scootaloo, a tear formed around his eye and rolled down his cheek.

It was wiped away by a purple hoof; Twilight was standing in front of him smiling.

“It’s going to be fine” Twilight tried comforting Anderson “What caused this anyway?”

Anderson looked at Scootaloo again “No, I-I just want things back the way they were!” Anderson stated before looking back to Twilight.

“W-what do you mean back the way they were?” Twilight asked with a puzzled face.

“I wish I’d never met you ponies, now I’m stuck here in this, Equestria land, full of talking ponies, I got shot, I’ve been experiencing pain, I had to see the most heartbreaking sight, and I almost got killed!” he was breathing heavily from the explanation. Twilight took a few steps back away from Anderson.

Her pupils went tiny and her body began to shake, she began to sweat in cold fear. Anderson stood up, removing his ghillie suit and picking up his helmet from the box. He walked to the door.

“W-where are you going?” Twilight stuttered as she asked.

“I’m going to find answers!” with that, the door slammed shut with a loud thud that shook the library, Twilight relaxed and sat down, tears pouring from her eyes.

A series of loud bangs and explosions went on for hours, but she didn’t care, she was still sitting on the floor, crying away time.

Rapid fire came from outside penetrating the tree house.

Twilight cried even louder.

Chapter 9

Chapter 9

Anderson woke up.
As his eyes opened he was facing a gray ceiling, he looked to his right to see a metal door with some writing above it.
"Med Bay"
He was in the Marine Corps Medical Bay, he gave a sigh of relief to see that.

"How are you feeling Anderson?" a male voice came from his other side, he turned his head to see the general.
"I'm fine, thank you, what happened?"
"There was an ambush in the alley, all of us survived, but most of them were wounded." the general spoke.

"Wait, what about the ponies, and Equestria?" Anderson quickly turned his mind around.
"Private. what are you talking about, ponies, Equestria, we were ambushed, lots of explosions and flying bullets, remember?"

Anderson's eye pupils went into a tiny size, his eyes widened in surprise, it wasn't real, the ponies and the newly discovered land weren't real, it was all a dream, his mind snapped and looked at the kneecap, it was fine.

He dropped his head on the pillow, brushing his hands against his hair, sighed he looked at his wristwatch.
13:52
Anderson dropped his hand and looked at the general.

"It was all a dream wasn't it, all a lie, just my brain sending fake memories." he spoke.
"Private I think you need more rest" the general stated and walked off.

Anderson closed his eyes, he thought about Twilight and Scootaloo, their expressions and smiles, Twilight's warm hug.
He stood up, and walked outside the med bay.
There he saw marines and a couple of medics gathered around, talking to each other.
Suddenly they all looked at Anderson, their expressions blank, then looked away.

Anderson didn't have anything to do, only to continue his job as a marine then go home to his family.
"No" he mumbled to himself.

Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Twilight happilly trotted over to a book shelf and with her teleknesis she picked up a random fiction book.

Before opening the book and reading it on, somehow the library felt empty, there was something missing from the picture. It concerned her that indeed somepony, morelike someONE was missing. She tapped her chin with her hoof, looking up to the ceiling before shouting out.

"Spiiike!"

"Ugh, coming Twi"
A small dragon descended downstairs, grumpy from the rude awakaning, still rubbing his eye with his claw.
He yawned and stood in front of Twilight.

"Spike, have you seen Anderson somewhere?"
He tilted his head in confusion, it sounded like a colt name so Spike had something on his mind, but quickly blew the thought away.

"Who now, Anderson?"
Spike scratched his neck in confusion.
"Yes have you seen him around, I need to tell him something!"
Twilight's eyes glowed with a warm sparkle as she looked into Spike's dragon eyes.
He noticed something on Twilight, she was shaking a bit and there was some sweat along her fore head, her breathing was deep and faster than usually. Spike ignored that.

"I have no idea who you're talking about Twilight, you feeling alright?"
He crossed his arms and swang his tail around.

"I-I'm fine, just, worried about him"
That caught Spike's attention, was she dating a colt, or there was a secret admirer, or somepony that Spike hasn't remembered.

Twilight loomed around and then lowered her head near Spike's.

"Well for starters, there were creatures visiting with no particular background, Princess Celestia didn't give a care in the world only to confront them, then maybe I guess there was a particular human we met, he was called Anderson, oh, and that camp that they established, where were you Spike?"
She said that all in one breath taking short pauses between to choose her words correctly.
Twilight was regaining her breath and broke eye conctact with Spike, the poor little thing took a step back still that puzzled look on his face.

"Twilight are you sure you didn't have a bad dream or somet-"
Spike was cut off with the sound of a hoof against wood, Twilight stomped her hoof on the woodwork and took a look at Spike, he couldn't help but notice that one of her eye was twiching and it was redder than the other one.

"I am perfectly f-fine, n-nothing to worry about!"
She raised her voice with every word she pronaunced.

"Well, if you say so, I'm going back sleep, don't wake me up if you need something"
With that Spike took off upstairs, scartched and yawned as he walked up to his cozy bed and dropped dead asleep.

Twilight was still sitting on her rump, looking around nowhere for particular, she stood up and began walking to the kitchen.
Twilight approached the sink and turned on the cold water tap, it splashed on her hooves, it sent a chill down her hooves and up to her chest, she hissed and after that she took the cold water into her face, splashing around her mane and neck.

Twilight turned off the tap and walked over a kitchen towel, she quickly took it and wiped her face, throwing it away on the floor.

She approached the couch and hopped into it, spreading her pony limbs lazily over it, sighing in comfort.
She began to slowly close her eyes and drifting off to a nap, she let off a throaty moan as she was in full sleep mode.

*Meanwhile back at the Marine Corps*

"I believe we have to discharge you Rick Anderson"
The head medic spoke to him, holding a sheet.
"Your condition is making it very hard for your comrades, you disapear inside your own head at sometimes, leaving them behind especially on that ambush yesterday, twenty men almost died because of your actions, as I say, you don't fit for a Marine, I'm sorry but you can now go back to your family"

Anderson eyed the medic without giving a reply.
"Here is the reliease form, you head out today in exatcly, twenty minutes, ready your baggage and head for the airport, a plane will take you right next to the DC central area, you will be rewarded for your service"
With that the medic left the room leaving Rick behind with he sheet in his hands.
He looked at it, and sighed in defeat, he didn't want any of his friends to die because of his mental condition, he was physicly well built, strong enough for close combat, and to rip someone's head out.

Either though he was young he had a family, no wife no kids, only his mother and father who lived in the countryside near the ocean.

He remebered the time in school, how he got picked on, fights, there was always fighting where ever you go.
Rick's first crush which lasted only for a few days becayse he had to move schools, graduating from college succesully.
Getting his first job as a lawyer, that didn't go well, he ended up being thrown out the court room for napping.
Because of him, the person he was protecting ended up in prison for two years.
Then, the little trashy side jobs which gave him enough money for his own apartament.
Then, he joined the Marines, at first he was proud upon giving a title of Marine, he passed boot camp, with blood and sweat of course.
After a week or two, he earned the title of Private, the lowest rank in the military, his own rifle. He even gave a name to it 'Betsy' he called it, her.
Took away a life or two of a Arab and a Afghan.
And now, all that time, was behind, he was getting kicked out from the Marines, only to return to his old appartament.

Suddenly the strangest memory came back to his head, about, ponies. He was riding on a mission then he and another Marine entered the world of ponies.
At first it was a rip off on their world, ridicolulous amount of color and happines.
But it warmed his heart to see those happy trotting ponies, Twilight.
And Scotaloo, it all came back, the memories, the attack e-everything!
The last thing he felt was her soft, cozy and warm embrace.
The last thing he saw was a sad, tear-pouring pony.
"Wait, they aren't real, stop thinking about them!"

He was alone in his apartament after hours of flying. Finally he was home and could rest from all this bullshit.
"I wish, I can see you again"
He mumbled to himself, they only met for a couple of minutes and Rick had already developed feelings for the lavender unicorn, how could he love something that wasn't his own species? Where did his soul go?

Twilight, the purple unicorn that was on his mind since they met, in his own brain of course, but it felt so real, so intense.
Rick sighed and threw his head back on the couch, lazily spreading himself around comfortably.

That was it, he gave up on seeing her again, her large purple eyes that contained pure innocence and life, her body shape which was attractive to the human, to feel her embrace again, to be in the land of Equestria, with happy ponies. He closed his eyes, a single tear rolled down his cheek as he drifted of to a deep slumber.

*Back to Equestria*

Twilight felt a light push on her shoulders, she awoke and saw a little orange filly. It was Scootaloo with a sad look on her face.
"Hey, what's the matter?"
Twilight asked quietly, looking into the filly's large ryes, they were filled with sadness and pain.
"M-miss Twlight, I-I feel lonely"
Scootaloo let out a few sniffs, keeping her tears in.
"Oh you silly, come here"
Twilight gestured for Scootaloo to come over and lay next to her. Without any hesitation the little filly jumped on the couch next to Twilight, snuggling up against her, it was, warm and caring. Like a mothers hug but, different.

Scootaloo opened her wing and Twilight placed her hoof under it, Scootaloo closed her wing around Twilight's hoof.
Using her horn, Twilight picked up a blanket and set it over them. Scootaloo snuggled further into Twilight, then she ran her muzzle throguh the filly's mane.
Scootaloo buried her face, blushing away.
"T-thank you"
Scootaloo said quietly and softly,that was the last word they made for tonight.

Scootaloo and Twilight woke up at the same time, the sun beating down on their faces, illuminating the room.
Twilight's hoof was lower and it now touched Scootaloo's belly.
Scootaloo opened her eyes with a groan, something was tingling her tummy, she looked down and saw Twilight's hoof on it, she blushed a deep crimson of red as it began rubbing it.
"M-miss Twilight, why are you massaging my tummy?"
Scootaloo looked over her head to see a smirking unicorn.
Twilight's chest was immiting a little heat, Scootaloo felt it, but before she can ask another question, she felt pressure on her lips.
"Mhhhhmp!"
Scootaloo tried to pull away but Twilight's hoof was holding her secure in place, she flapped her wings but to no use.
Her lips were soft and tender, it tickled her own, "M-mmmhp!"
Scootaloo tried calling out Twilight's name to stop, shebwas held against her will, no one knew that Twilight was a filly fooler.
Their eyes gazed on eachother, trying to 'make out' the situation they were in right now.
Twilight gently stroked Scootaloo's mane

"What in tarnation?!"

First love

What to do when you met your first love?

Twilight snapped to her senses, gasping she saw Applejack standing in the doorway with disgust in her expression.

"This isn't what it looks like!"
Twilight shouted at AJ, she took a step back from the pair.

"Twi, Ah know wat yer thinkin', but doin' it with a filly, Ah thought so"
Applejack turned away and began walking outside, disgusted by the sight only to be stopped by Twilight's voice.

"Applejack, please don't tell anypony, please?"
Twilight began tearing up as her gaze locked into AJ's.
She let out a sigh.

"Ah promise, not a word"
Applejack smiled and so did Twilight.
There was an awkward silence only to be broken by a crying Scootaloo who ran past them.

"I'm telling my mum, what you did to me!"
She cried as the little filly ran away in fear.
Twilight raised a hoof, but lowered it, a tear rolled down her cheek and splashed into the ground.

"Twi, Ah gotta go, b-buck some apples"
AJ pulled up a fake smile and began walking away from Twilight.
She lowered her head down in shame and embarassment, she has just forced a filly to do naughty things against her will.

Twilight sobbed and sniffed for a bit, slowly walking back inside the library. Maybe she won't be able to see Scootaloo again, or any of her friends if Applejack 'snitches' her out.

*Sweet Apple Acres*

Applejack was running wildy, eager to return to the safety of her home, only to be greeted by a powerful bash at her side.
She fell to the ground, AJ clenched her teeth at the pain, then a pair of big hooves grabbed her hind legs.

It was Big Mac.

He turned around AJ face to face, he pressed his left front hoov against her chest. His thighs around his sister's.
He had her completely locked in place.
"B-Big Mac, what you think yer doin'?"

He pressed her chest harder. Applejack coughed and tried to fiddle.
"Agh"
Was the only thing she can say, he was simply too big for her, much more stronger of course. He can simply snap her neck or crush her ribcage in seconds, but Big Mac had other intentions. He leaned in closer to her snout, barely making contact with his muzzle against hers. AJ's were wide opened in fear of what Big Mac was going to do.
He pressed again with his hiof, but this time much more stronger. AJ couched again, a small tear was appearing in the corner of her eye.
"Aw, what's the matter, the little farm pony can't take a bit of pain, seriously sis' Ah was expecting more from you!"
She didn't believe what he was saying, he was simply mocking her, tossing her around in his hooves (not really).

"B-brother, yer hurtin' me, l-lay off!"
She almost shouted as he pushed again, much stronger.
She cried out in pain, panting for air.

"No can do lil' sis"
He let out a cheeky grin across his face. Was he going to kill her or... worse, AJ was in pain, another wave of it everytime her big brother pushed harder and harder into her chest.
She couldn't take it, she let it go.
Tears were forming after a second and began running down her cheeks. Big Mac kissed her on the cheek, the last thing she saw before going into a bliss of darkness was the, blue sky...

Big Mac stepped of her, he didn't know if she was dead or uncouncious, either way AJ had a massive big red circle around chest, and, she wasn't breathing.
He smiled and walked off.

*Rick's apartament*

He was laying lazily on his couch, watching a football game on the television and sipping a cup of coffee.

Rick stood up and streched his arm backwards, feeling the flexing muscles and moving bones which cracked.
It felt good, at least. Rick had the month off, what was he going to do, stay here and watch TV sipping shit coffee?
He had better plans.
Rick wanted to go back to Equestria, to see Twilight again, for some reason he wanted that since he came back to America.

He looked at a mirror ehich hung in his bathroom under the sink. He looked deeper, and saw something familiar, something he had seen before, it was, his own face.
But a tiny blue light submerged from the mirror, it went stone frozen and then replaced by something like a mirror.

Rick gasped, there lay before him was Ponyville, the ponies trotting around happily, they were laughing and between eachother.
He quickly reacted and slid his hand inside the mirror, as expected it sucked him in, after what seemes like a second, he was gone from the real world and sucked into the land of ponies.
But it was different, there was a little snow what seemed like ash, the heavy rain pouring down anything it catched, it was night too, dark, cold and wet, three good combinations to ruin someone's mood.
There wasn't a living soul outside the mess. Only Rick was there, soaked wet and that annoying piece of shit ash sticking to his skin like leeches. At least he was in Equestria, just bad weather nothing else, yep just the weather.
Ricm stood up immidiately facing the town's library. He sped off further into town, as soon as he arrived at the library's front door he knocked.
It unlocked, only to reveal a sad and depressed lavender unicorn staring at the ground.
She looked up, and to Rick's suprise she squealed in delight and jumped, wrapping her hooves around his neck hugging him tightly. He returned the embrace.

"Back"
He said calmly and quietly.

"I-I missed you so much"
Twilight began crying at his shoulder, he gently stroked her mane and patted her on the shoulder.
She was still locked on him, her hind legs wrapped around his waist, ger front hooves around his neck, muzzle buried at the shoulder, her stokaxh pressed against his.

He felt the warmth again, no matter he was still standing in the rain.
"Inside?"

"Y-yes, let's go in"
She was letting go of his neck and loosened the grip. Only to be picked up by the strong ex-marine.
"Oh, uhh... thanks?"

He nodded in response, closed the dor behind him and entered the library. She snuggled her hewd into his chest, with a little sniff she spoke.
"Mmm... You, have a nice scent"
He simply smiled as he walked over the couch placing Twilight on it, he sat next to her.
They looked at eachother's eyes, his heart began pumping, his body getting warmer, same as Twilight's.

"How did you get here anyway?
She asked with a smile placing a hoof on his hand.

"Well, it was all just a mirror, t-then I thouht about..." unable to finish his sentace, too embarrased to say it.
"Me?" asked the curious Twilight
"Y-yes" he let out a sigh.
"We've barely known eachother, and now we develop feelings"
Rick spoke, still looking into her eyes, ehich were half closed and lloking seducevly.
"Maybe, that's our fate, to be together, to... love eachother"
She spoke, blood was pulsing inher cheeks, turning into a deep shade of crimson.
"But we are from different species, why do we develop such emotions for us?" he asked still confused by the new found love of his life.
'And why exactly a motherfucking pony?!' he thought to himslef, but quickly eating the thought away.

He sighed, quickly without warning she kissed him on the lips, he rapidly responding. He wiped his mouth with his arm.
"What the bloody crap was that, why did you do it?!"
He snapped, now he regretted that.
The purple mare broke into tears and fled away in her bedroom, locking the door and jumping on the bed, burying her face into the blanket and crying away.

He made his way upstairs and knocked on the bedroom door, only hearing sobs.
"Twi, I-I'm sorry, I should've not snapped at you, please, stop crying" he pleaded for her to stop crying, only to hear mumbled words come underneath the blanket.
"I thought that a first love's kiss would do good for us, you even said it yourself, and now it hurts me"

It broke his heart only to hear this, like somepony stabbed it with his own military issued dagger, which he was carrying right now.
"T-Twilight, m-m-m, my love... stop... crying... please"
He didn't believe his own ears, saying that he loved a simple pony, Twilight didn't believe her own pony ears either.

He heard the door unlock, Twilight was looking up to gim with her watered, blood shod eyes from crying.
"I'm... your love?"
Rick sighed and crouched, eye leveling with Twilight.
Without any sign he grabbed her head, their lips met into a long passionate kiss between them.
It made her heart fly away, her tummy tingle, her brain scramble.

After some time which seemed like an eternity of enjoyment, they broke the kiss, a long, fat trail was between their mouths, it quickly dissappeared.
"T-that... was..."
"No words..."

They both leaned into eachothers shoulders, his arms wrapped tightly around the mare's neck. Her hooves gently rubbing his shoulders.
They were speachless, it felt great, nothing could break this moment... Or could it?

"..."

Chapter 12

We all hurt the ones we love, don't we?

Applejack woke up with a groan, she didn't stand up only opened her eyes. She was under a tree, the warm summer breeze flowing through the leaves and the orange pony's mane, which was lying on the ground.
AJ tried to stand up, only to be put back again by a wave of pain through her chest. AJ took a quick glimpse at her ribcage, only to find a big, red area circling around it. She coughed again trying to stand up, she couldn't, the pain was agonizing and her heartbeat increased everytime she tried to stand up.
"Oh, great now what?"
AJ sighed and gave up on standing, she lay tgere motionless only her tail swinging around. It was Big Mac who done that, but why would he hurt his own sister? (no idea)

*Le library*

Rick and Twilight were still locked in a stare, not letting go of eachother they simply can't, it was too comfortable and perfect. Twilight nuzzled Rick's neck and whispered in his ear.
"I want you"
Rick's stomach turned upside down upon hearing those words, Twilight did want him after all. But he was afraid of the consequences, he was mature and grown up enough to understand the current situation, a mare in his arms, snuggling up telling him she wanted it.

"I don't that this is a good idea, we are from differrnt species remember, we can't just go on about it"
He spoke quietly, still holding the purple mare.
Twilight didn't reply, only squeezed him tighter and nuzzled in further. She wanted thjs and was confident.

"What's the worst that could happen, we aren't in any danger"
She chuckled and lightly kissed his cheek.
"What about pregnancy, and all that, I don't want you ruining your life because of me, yes we do have something betweennus but this is simply too far!" he loosened his grip around her neck. She pushed hard and thre Rick, his bsck against the floor and Twilight ontop of him. She sat her rump on his crotch, she winked and lowered her body to his.
She presse d her fore hooves against his shoulders, her hind legs spread across his. "I want you now, and nothing is going to stop it!" Twilight gently began circling her thigs around his crotch. "Twilight, don't do something we'll both regret" Rick spoke, she looked at him in the eyes and lowered her head near his, "I want thus, and I won't regret anything my dear".
There were some lines you shouldn't cross at any cost, right niw he didn't have multiple choices. Either enjoy his time with Twilight, or run away from his loved one. Rick hesitated for a moment, there was no way out. "Okay Twi, if you want this fine, I want it too" he sighed in defeat and kissed her lips. He began rubbing her back and mane, slowly going down to her sides and stomach, she moaned at the touch.
Before continuing he scooped her up with one swift motion snd carried the unicorn in his arms, gently placing her on the bed. She spread her hind legs, revealing her marehood.
He pulled off his shirt, exposing the buffed, muscle toned body of the ex-marine. Twilight's marehood was a line between her hind legs, but slowly revealing pink flesh as she rubbed it. "Take me in, soldier boy".
His erection was growing inside his pants, slowly raising, Twilight was getting wet already.
But he had second thoughts, what wil happen after this, what will be the consequences of cross species sexual relation?
Slowly he pulled away from the bed, putting the shirt back on.
"I'm sorry Twi, I just can't do it now, or ever"
She sighed and stopped rubbing herself, she shifted her body on the side of the bed.
"At least, sleep here for tonight?" she offered him.

Rick smiled as he layed down on the bed next to Twilight, snuggling eachother. Using her teleknesis, the mare covered a blanket over them. They wished eachother goodnight.

*Le sleep*

"Twilight, Twi where are you?"
Rick was in a poor lit room, the walls were from decaying steel, pulling itself away. He turned and ran, but found nothing.
Upon hearing a whimpering noise coming from someone, he quickly charged ahead trying to find the source of it.

As hours of running and searching, Rick came to a halt, hisbeyes widened in surprise.
It was Twilight, sitting on her rump, staring particulary no where. He ran over and huged her from the back.

*Le reality*

They were still slumbering peacfully, Twilight's snout buryed under his chest. They were in a warm embrace this whole time.

Promoted?

It was morning, Celestia's sun was bearing down on Rick's face, he was still in bed and asleep, then he felt something move.
Twilight was still slumbering next to him, he knew it and didn't open his eyes. Rick continued to sleep without any care.

*Somewhere in Ponyville*

"Pinkie!" Rainbow Dash shouted across Sugarcube Corner. She was hovering above with a worried look on her face. She hasn't seen Twilight yesterday, nor the strange creatures that arrived, it was confusing they weren't making any sense and already taking threatening actions. Not against the ponies no.

"Pinkie, come out for Celesta's sake!" she shouted again, a pink mare with a fluffy pink mane came rushing out the door, bouncing on her way out and humming an unitelligable tune.
"Heya Dash!" Pinkie was being Pinkie, happy and cheery.
She bounced in front of Dash, but was stopped with a hoof to her shoulder.
"Pinkie, I'm worried about Twilight, have you seen her?"
Dash's stomach was turning upside down, she was dead worried about Twilight.
"Oh, she's with Anderson at the library probably studying!"
Pinkie's still remained stationary.
"Anderson?" Dash eas confused, she heard that name being shouted out before. Then she remembared, it was one of the Marines that came to Equestria.
"Oh Celestia, what if he hurts her?!"
Das was now in full panic mode.
"Nah, they're in love, I even saw them kiss, it was so cute!" Pinkie's grin still remained on her face.
"W-what, in... love, kissing...?"
"Yep!" Pinkie began bouncing up and down again, looks like she was Pinkie Spy. Spying on Rick and Twilight.

Dash quickly sped off to the library, avoiding colliding with other ponies as she flew. What was he doing to Twilight, drugging her, using magic to influence. Dash had so much shit on her mind, and made it hard to proccess, as thoughts flew around her brain she smacked herself at the library's front door. Dash stood up groaning, then manickly slammed the door open. Without hesitation or second thought, she flew to the bedroom door. Without knocking she opened, only to see a couple laying on the bed, sleeping peacfully.
It was Twilight Sparkle and Rick Anderson the human.
Twilight was resting her head on his chest, closely snuggled to his body. He had his hand over her side and his other one on her neck.
She had wrapped her hooves around his waist, one of her hind leg resting on his leg.

Twilight moaned and slightly opened her left eye, Rainbow Dash was hovering over the doorway almost at the brink of tears.
"D-Dash, what are you doing here?"
Twilight yawned, still holding the tight grip between her and Rick. After a few seconds Rick woke up too.
"Twi, Twi dear please go back to bed, it's early"
Upon hearing those words Dash sighed and flew near them, slowly and elegantly landing on her hooves.
"So I guess you two-" Dash was interupted.
"Love eachother" the couple on the bed said in unison, then Rick gave a light kiss on Twilight's lips and turned his look over to Dash.
He gave a warm smile which she returned.
"Thank you for understanding us Rainbow" Twilight spoke as Dash descended down stairs and leaving the library.
"Who wants breakfest?" Twilight asked and Rick simply noded in return, their grip loosened and their embrace broke. It was a bit cold. They both walked down to the kitchen as they prepared their breakfest.

Thye sat near eachother as they chewed down. It was veg soup (what else a Double cheeze burger?)

They finished their meal, happy from the nourishing. It was a sunny day ahead of them, until the heavy rain began pouring again.

"Oh great, now what?" Rick sounded dissapointed.
Twilight giggled "We could have some fun, you know" she rubed his chest.
"Twilight, I think we talked about this."
She sighed "Yeah I know"
But a spark blowed inside her mind.
"But first we need Celestia's blessing to create a foal!"
She squealed in delight and jumped into Rick's hold.
"So we don't have to worry about pregnancy!"
She kissed him deep with passion,but he quickly pulled away.
"Please Twi, you're making me uncomfy"
For some reason he took hold of her forehoof, it was softer than usual, it was like a hardened and reinforced marshmallow. Twilight giggled for some reason.
"Hah, it tickles, and it feels nice, no pone has ever touched me there"

After a long pause Rick broke the silence.
"It's umm... different"
He stroked her mane with his free hand. "Wouod you like a massage?" he asked.
"Oh yes please, finally my muscles can relax from this bent over reading at night, let's head for the spa, there are some moisturisers and somekind of liquids that relax your body"

And so they went to the spa, upon opening the library door thet were greeted by a big red stallion.

"B-Big Mac?"
"Eeeayup"
He viciously punched Rick straight in the ribcage, mass center.
He flew acroas the room, smashing into a bookshelf. His vision blurred and hearing screeched.
"Rick!" somepony shouted.
Twilight looked at Big Mac in horror.
"W-what gives?!" she yelled, only to be smacked across the face.

But it was a dream.

She woke with a start, still cuddled up next to her love. Twilight sighed and rested her head again, she felt Rick's smooth, skin hand run trough her mane. They were soft and warm.
"Ah..." she moaned.
"I love you Twilight, you are my little sparkle" he kissed her in the cheek. Twilight only giggled, he was easy with her, loving and caring, watching out for her. His voice was like fresh honey. "R-Rick, I cannot wait anymore, I need you"
Twilight slid her way to his lap, her thigs circling and her rump against his crotch, Rick was having an erection. Twilight could feel it, his muscular, long penis raising up. (muscular because it's a muscle not a bone lol)
She could feel it pressing up against her own genitals.
"See, you like it" she stuck her tongue out.
"Twilight please, please lay off, Twi get up"
But she wasn't going to, she reached her hooves to his trousers zipper and began to slowly pull down.
"Twilight don't do it"
She continued already half way.
"Twilight please get off me"
Only a quorter left.
"TWILIGHT GET THE FUCK OFF!"
He pushed Twilight to her side. Unexpected as it is he shouted again. "THIS IS WRONG, DON'T YOU GET IT?!"
"WRONG!"

"Wrong?" she quietly whispered.
Twilight curled up to a ball, hidibg her blushing face away from him. "The only wrong thing I see is you refusing our love"
"We love eachother, that doesn't mean that we can interact with us" his voice was filled with something the pony did not recognize.
"I just want to feel you inside of me, I was longing for it since we first kissed, but I guess that you can't accept it" she sounded more serious, Twilight stood up in courage and pointed a hoof at him. "It's just because I'm a pony is it, you don't want anything to do with me do you?" she was dead serious.
"N-no it's not that, I do love you with all my heart, I just don't want anything had to happen" he trailed off.
"I-I don't think we should ever do this again" he finally cracked.
"W-what, w-why, this is a j-joke right, right?!"
She faked a smile across her face, to fade away as he stepped out of bed.
"No Twi, I-I'm going back"

What? All he wanted was to live in Equestria, to be near Twilight, to feel her warmth and now he wants to go back?
Is he a troll?

Suddenly every fiber in his body instructed him to leave Equestria, to never face Twilight again.
He reached into his trousers' pocked and took out his military issued combat knife, with a sound like a sword sliding from it's scabbard.
He did a three sixty flip with the knife and cought it correctly (totally badass)
He turned to face Twilight. She looked at the knife and trembled.
"W-what's that for, put it away it is dangerous to play with kni-AAAAGH!" she was interrupted by a flash of pain on her side, she couldn't see what was happening. The only words that left her mouth before blacking out
"What the... fuck...?"
Her head hit the floor with a thud. She was motionless, and not breathing...

*Battlefiled 3 'promoted' sound effect*

Private First Class!

Pootis

It was dark.
Very very dark, and cold to say at least.
It was like a blitz, buried beneath a mountain of snow, and like Michael Jackson had moonwalked in your spine.
It was pain, simple agonizing pain!
But a unicorn couldn't handle the shock of being stabbed by her only love. It was like travelling through time and Inception all over again. Life becomes hard into a dream, a dream becomes into a nightmare, the nightmare turns into hell and hell, turns into another dimension of space. No longer on the beloved land on Equestria, in a different place, a different world, a different dream.
It was like moving schools but much more, worse. This story has been rushed too fast, no particular background or anything important, like big, dark empty gaps between space.
Time seemed to warp itself around, the atmosphere changed.
It trapped minds inside, leaving them wandering the void ahead.
Thuds, the only thing you can hear are thuds, they are breathing, getting faster and faster by the milisecond, filling spines with chills, running up your body and into your head.

(Inception x10)

Any movement will result into a mnother thud, any thought into another displacement of your current postion sending you light years away.
And that was happening to a lonely, heartbroken pony.
Twilight Sparkle.

The only thing she heard was the constant beeping of an electronical device. Displaying her heartbeat.

In a white room alone, her subcouncious wandering aimlessly. It wasn't Equstria anymore, it was a different place.
All attemps made to wake up from this dream within a nightmare were failed.

Even a 'drop' wasn't successful.

It was days, weeks resulting into months. The world around her continued to develop and grow.

'Where was she?'

Her subcouncious continued on growing curious with every passing day. Was she going to wake up in this new world, or die trying?
Lifespan was a big problem, her days passed as she didn't respond.
From time to time, faded out voices could be heard, but it didn't last long before silence took it's place. How was she surviving, without any nourishing or liquid to support her. That dark, sick memory always came back to haunt her.

Harsh measures were taken.

Her body spazzed as electronics came to life inside her, her brain began operating, the blood circulating throug out, the heart pumping, her limbs functioned.

Her eyelids broke open.

She shot up, her body circulating with raw energy and power. Her artificial wired brain started of with a green light.

"Scanning subject"
A metalic voice which seemed to come from her own self, "Scanning partially complete, Subject : Unknown, Gender : Female, Species : Unknown, please contact your administrator for maintanence."

Twilight snapped to reality, the white room was poorly lit, without any windows hardly letting any sunlight in, if there is one. The walls kere metalic, the ceiling looked complex with a few openings around, weird metalic contraptions lay around the room, the door, there wasn't one.
Twilight felt different, likenshebwas in another body, it was her own only, modified. She could tell it by the weird stransperent pictures which were hanging around the ceiling. At furst there was an X-ray picture of her entire body, all the bones without exeptions were broken, her skull was cracked in half. Her limbs snapped into different pieces. She looked further, anither X-ray picture with her bones and skull reinforced with metal and other material. She looked further, it was another X-ray picture, but different, her bones and skull were innperfect condition, only seemed bigger and some blunt edges on the side, there was something written. 'Exoskeleton', she had never heard of a thing like that. Or whatever it is because now it supported her body. Twilight took another look around with her eyes, still unable to manuver her neck for some reason. She looked at a couple of tanks with yellow liquid, which contained completely splattered body insides, it made her almost vomit and raised a hoof to her mouth, as she moved it a sound produced like a mechanical part moved, something like a robot.
Upon the hoof making contact with her lips a metal tap was heard, she realised what was it. Before she wanted to look over her body the walls moved, but only a tiny part.
It revealed a human shape with a white rad suit. Was the room radiated?
Then the human finally spoke.
"Ah, you're awake, we didn't thin you would revive in another century, now I know you are confused and so we are, let me explain after you master your new body" he gestured to Twilight to come over, and so she did. She hopped out of the metal contraption, pulling herself from any cables connected to her. Then landed on the feramic floor with a metalic-like thump.
"Yes, I will explain that too, now come"
They passed a long white corridor with 'Warning radiation' signs all over. "Radiation" the human in the rad suit spoke without taking a look around.
"Here we are, step inside" he pointed to a small platform, she tood on it on sat her rump down.
He went behind her and opened a little hatch on her neck.
"H-hey what are you doing, OUCH, it hurts!"
The human had inserted some kind of memory chip from herbold brain. Suddenly millions of numbers cane flashing before her eyes.
"Memory check completed, Subject : Twilight Sparkle, Species : Unicorn, Origin : Equestria, all systems online and functional for service."
The machanical voice spoke again, Twilight was puzzled and looked over the human.
"Yes, explaining, this isn't exactly reality, you are still in bed sleeping with your love, now, you have choices, but be careful."
He handed out a device with two buttons on it, one red the other blue.
"Press the red button and you stay here forever on Earth in this robotic forn and enjoy your new immortal life, or press the blue button and you can go home back to Equestria and your friends, and of course your true love, Rick Anderson, niw choose."
She hesitated, an immortal life in this robotic form and to stay on a unknwon planet, or go back to Equestria and be with Rick again, to love eachother and share expiriances together.
Without any further thought, Twilight pressed the blue button.
The human laughed after that...

Darkness...
Oh god damn it not again! Ahem nevermind that.

Twilight woke up with a start, again. Still in the bed but, not in the same position, she looked up and saw Rick's eyes. His body was tightly locked around hers, he wasn't wearing any clothing.
"You wanted this?" he asked the planting a kiss on her lips.
"I've been waiting for you, naughty boy" she giggled.

As for that the bed began creaking, moans and gasps could be heard through the candle lit room.
Finally, they were haing some time for themselves.

°Romantic music°

It Never Happened

No it did not

"Twilight, Twilight snap out of it, come on sugar cube!" she heard a faint voice calling out.
"R-Rick?" she asked confused. "Who, no it's me Applejack!"

Twilight's vision concentrated, an orsnge earth pony was standing by her side, gentrly poking her. "You ai'ght Twi?"
"Ugh... What happened?" Twilight stood up and looked at Applejack. "W-where's Rick?" she rubbed her head. "Twinya bumped yerself so hard it made ya make up names" Applejack pointed her hoof at a lamp post. "Ah found you lying here and quickly came over"
"How long have I been out?" Twilight asked. "Ah have no idea"
"Ugh... No shit of course you wouldn't" Twilight looked away.
"What does 'shit' mean, Twi Ah tink' ya'll need a rest!" she sighed and hugged Twilight. "No need to get peachy n' stuff"
"Twi ya talkin' funny, is somethin' wrong?" Applejack let go out of Twilight and tilted her head. "Nothing, I'm going back to the library, bye AJ" Twilight walked off. 'Why that no good little two-bit fillyfo- no AJ Twiligh is yer friend no matter what' she thought to herself.

Twilight opened the library door and used her hind legs to close it. "Riiiick! she shouted. "Spiike have you seen Rick?"
"Don't know him, don't care I'm sleeping" the baby dragon groaned from the rude awakening. Twilight made her way upstairs and opened her bedroom door. It was empty.
Then a thought hit her, what if the impacted made her imsgine all that stuff? What if it wasn't real only a imagination of her own. She hated when she was right. Twilight had checked every inch of Ponyville but to no avail. Rick wasn't around, he didn't exist, the o called Marines didn't exist. All hope was lost for Twilight to see Rick Anderson again...

The Truth

Chapter 4: The Truth

"Five seconds"

The sarge looked at his watch, it was still showing 00:01, he looked over to the battlefield and then to the dead soldier, but he wasn't dead at all.
The young marine coughed, spitting blood, the sarge's eyes gaped in excitement that his friend wasn't dead at all.
The bullet had penetrated the first layer of Kevlar on the helmet, but it did not the second.
"Fucking rubber bullets." The sarge thought to himself as helping the young marine up.
He took his hand, rising him up. "Well, looks like those bullets are actually made out of rubber."
They laughed, but their humor was short to be lived, flying fighter jets flew over them, dropping napalm bombs.

The bombs dropped, splattering napalm allover the sand, as they covered behind the rocks.
The fire didn't reach them though, but hot air can be felt.

They looked at each other then out from the rocks into the battlefield.

Hundred have burned to death, some still alive but not for long, the smell of burning flesh and screams.
They were all dead, the battle was over, no one had one, lost their lives, the families of the dead ones will mourn them...

As they were walking across the dead land, they saw something shiver, it was another marine, hiding behind cover, still young not even 17.
The 2 marines walked up to him, he looked in shock and fear, his left arm slightly burned from the fire.
They patted him, no reaction. "Leave him... he's froze." the sarge spoke as walking away.

The radio came alive.
"Confirmed that area grid 6 has been neutralized?"
Another voice came.
"Grid gone, wait, I see 3 marines, getting satellite footage now, yes, It's our marines!"

A few helicopters flew over them, now floating in front and landing on the sand.
Marines came out of the helicopter, they carefully picked up the wounded marine and placed him unto the helicopter.
Both marines were inside, safe and sound.
"Your safe now, there is nothing to worry about we WILL get you back home."
The pilot spoke to them.

The helicopters flew off in the distance.
Silence remained in the desert as usually.

Turning back

Chapter 4: Turning back

The sound from the rotor blades cutting through the air, the Marines looking back at the battlefield, it was over, they had won a battle, but what about the strange encounter with ponies, the Sargent took a flashback in his mind, remembering the creatures, he stood up walking up to the pilot.

"I need you to go back, we've discovered something" the Sargent looked at the pilot.

"What for, any particular reason?" the pilot questioned.

"We made a discovery, a big one" the Sargent spoke remembering the ponies.

"Okay, we're turning back, ETA around 10 minutes till we land again" the pilot said without looking at him.
They were now traveling back, passing over the dead battlefield, and into the green fields.
The other marines held their mouths half open, seeing the greenery near a desert was incredible.
They shared looks with each other, and then the helicopter landed on the grass, only to be greeted by a small pony with a orange coat and a purple mane.

"Hey, hi I'm Scootaloo and what's your name, more like what are you?"
She was playful, still a child.

The Marines looked at her, smiling at the cute sight of a filly.

The Sargent and the filly made eye contact, they looked at each other, deep inside the filly's purple eyes, he saw flashbacks, flashbacks of his family and children, playing around-
He shook his head and broke eye contact with the little pony.
He let out a soft sigh and lowered his head again.

She smiled, the smile from a little pony made him happy, he smiled back.

"Well, I guess I should be goin' back to Dash, see ya'!"
With that, the little orange pony went off.

"Ain't she cute?" the sarge thought to himself, picturing the orange filly.

"Alright men, listen up!" a strong voice came from the helicopter, it was the general.
:"This isn't a meet and greet session, these creatures can cause any kind of threat!"
He continued on.
"If we let our guard down, it could end up like last time, SO, I want you to be on alert and don't let any feelings for the ponies to go through, remember, we are marines, they are ponies, we have weapons, the have..."

"Magic!"
A female voice came from behind them.
A purple unicorn with a purple and red lined mane.

They all turned their attention to her, she was smiling.

The young Marine and the purple unicorn locked themselves in a gaze between their eyes.
Barely blinking.

Twilight broke eye contact with him and blushed slightly, no one can see her redness.
She lowered her head clearing her throat.

"So, um, why did you come to Equestria?"
She spoke, asking someone and waiting for a answer.
