Spec Ops; The Line Meets MLP; FiM................. That would be a story for another day but this story is about a team to find and extract civilians and if possible, Martin Walker's Squad and their surviving pilot of the crashed Chinook

Cpt. Simon Riley, Lt. Alex Mason, Sgt. Paul Jackson and their german shepherd, Konrad( Captain, Lieutenant, and Sergeant, respectively) are all part of JSOC( Joint Special Operations Command) and they are in hell, formerly known as Dubai. They're mission you ask, well it is to go into hell and find and extract as many civilians as possible. A side objective is to attempt to find Delta Squad, composed of Cpt. Martin Walker, 1st Lt. Alphanso Adams and Staff Sgt. John Lugo. While they have no luck in finding anything, they find Delta's handy work, including civilians killed by White Phosphorus. Not dismayed they continue searching the ruins of the once prosperous city in their CH-47 Chinook
piloted by Sgt. Emily Anderson and co-piloted by Sgt. Scott Green. Suddenly they see a Black Hawk take off from what they believe is the DJ's outpost, however they are shocked to find that it begins engaging the 33rd troops in the outpost. they follow it from a distance, knowing that they would most likely be treated as hostile. As soon as they see it, they shit themselves. A sandstorm, 2 days early. Needless to say they go down adding to the kill count Dubai has racked up. But it doesn't and they want to know why.
Constructive Criticism Always Welcome
Yes I know I used Ghost's real name, BlOp's protag's name, the dude who got nuked in CoD4, the last name of the pilot from the LA mission in BlOps2 and the main bad guy's in Spec Ops; The Line last name.
And all you need to do is read the first chapter to notice that I will, at will, swear. Fucking Deal With it

Prologue; WE'RE GOING DOWN

Prologue;

WE'RE GOING DOWN

"Oh, SHIT," I screamed "IS THAT WHAT I THINK IT IS!" "YEP, WE'RE FUCKED, WE'RE FUCKING FUCKED!" shouted Sgt. Jackson. Konrad started barking like a fucking madma- eh dog mad dog. "BRACE FOR IMPACT!" ordered Sgt. Anderson. Everybody braced against the wall. Suddenly the helicopter was slammed as the storm wall into the Chinook. "Keep us steady!" yelled Riley. "WE'RE FUCKING TRYING" screamed back Sgt. Green. I looked out one of the windows while trying to keep steady. Noticing Konrad was starting to slip, I quickly grabbed his K9 combat vest. "Don't worry boy, I got you." I looked back out the window. The ground was getting close. Suddenly the  chopper was hit by something. "What the fuck was that!" screamed Lt. Mason. "Debris" shouted Anderson. Under my breath, I said "Why don't you just nuke us world" I closed his eyes, hugged Konrad close and waited to die.

A few seconds later, taking note that they currently weren't wreckage and corpses in a dune at street level or in the side of a building "Um.... why aren't we dead" I curiously asked. It appeared to everyone the same thing had just noticed. They looked out the wind and they were sure as shit, they weren't in Dubai. Hell they weren't even in a desert. Suddenly Green shouted "Anderson. Anderson! ANDERSON!!!!" "What, What, WHAT!" she shouted back. "TOWER, EVASIVE MANEUVERS!" Green yelled "IF YOU HAVEN'T FUCKING NOTICED, OUR FUCKING BACK ROTOR IS OUT!" she shouted back "TRY ANYTHING" he yelled beginning to pull on his stick desperately. " OK, OK"

Celestia looked out over Canterlot in her tower. She didn't know why but she kept hearing a high pitched beeping. At first it was low but over the minutes it became louder. She strangely felt compelled to look to the sky. She immediately took notice to the, what appeared to be a helicopter, however it had 2 main rotors. And one of them was on fire. Fearing that if it hit the tower, which is what it's trajectory suggested it would, she enveloped it in her magic and was just barely able to move it so it wouldn't take out the tower. She looked back out and facehoofed. Although it missed the tower it still had a straight course for Ponyville and it was out of range off her magic. Knowing the only thing to do she wrote a letter to Twilight.

Suddenly the Chinook was enveloped in a blue aura and it was moved out of the way "Da fuck was that" asked Mason "No idea but it prolonged our life for a few minutes" I said. "Crap" said Green. "What is our next fucking roadblock." Jackson. "There's a village in front of us" "Great if we don't die, we aren't going to make the best fucking impression on the locals." said Green. "I think it will be door number 1" said Mason.

"Hey Twi," said Spike "Yes Spike." "Letter from the Princess" It read

"Dear My Best Student,

A few minutes I was looking over Canterlot, when suddenly what appeared to be a helicopter with 2 main rotors nearly crashed into my tower. However, I don't believe it was intentional because the back rotor was on fire. I aided the pilots attempts to dodge the tower, however it still has a straight course for Ponyville. I need you to stop it or at least slow it down to the point were it won't destroy anything.

Your Mentor, Princess Celestia"

She knew what was at stake, and immediately went to the southwest side of town.

"We're trying to slow us down and much as possible" said Anderson. "Ok maybe we won't all die" I said.  Green began counting down "40 meters to impact, 35, 30, 25, 2-. He was cut off as the Chinook was similarly to minutes earlier but now the aura was purple. It slowed them down tremendously, but not enough. We still hit with enough force to knock me out. I awoke moments later "cough, cough, everyone alright." I said. I checked myself over nothing major, that I could see. I looked around and saw that everyone was lying around me. I crawled over and checked their vitals. All off them were out cold, sigh except Green. His head was caved in on the control panel. You never get used to seeing your friends die.

I had slowed and provided enough lift for the mystery helicopter enough to make sure it didn't plow through Ditzy Doo's house. However it still landed in town square. I went running to town square. It only destroyed the fountain and broke in half. On it there was a yellow ring with the words Joint Special Operations Command around the ring, in the middle were 4 swords, 2 straight up and 2 crossed. It looked like there was something moving inside. It or it's shadow looked like a pony but strange. Everypony had started gathering round I saw AJ, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie in a group. I went over to them. I overheard everypony discuss what they saw. When I arrived , everypony gasped.

Feeling my strength return, I decided to bring everyone out of the deathtrap that was our helicopter. I grabbed Anderson and brought everyone out. It was not until I finally brought out the corpse of Green and out of respect for the fallen, closed his eyes that I noticed the inhabitants of this sleepy town. And that they weren't humans

Chapter 1; Um.... Hello

Chapter 1

       Um.... Hello

I stood there in shock for a few seconds. They were multicolored ponies about 2 feet smaller than me, some had horns, others had wings, still others had neither. One even had both. I saw a unicorn with mint fur talking to one that had none with creme fur with an excited, so might even call it an 'I told you so face'. Suddenly, a cough from Jackson broke the silence. Turning my attention to him I said "How you doing Sergeant" He gave me a smirk and said "I just had a 85 pound german shepherd lying on my chest after the fucking helicopter I was in crashed at who fuckin knows miles per hour, laughs, how the fuck are you." I said "Well look around, Green, poor bastard, got his head caved in on impact" indicating to the ponies surrounding the crash site and the body of Green. He laughs again and says "If I wasn't seeing it, I'd ask you what you're smoking and where can I get it." I said "Well you're usually our diplomat, just looking for options, Christ knows if they even fucking speak english." I looked down again and he was trying to conceal a smile. "This coming from the guy who said diplomacy; the art of saying 'nice doggie' until your sniper gets in range. Well looks like your gonna have to face the firing squad, because I can't feel my legs." I stood up and took a few seconds to try and figure out what to say.

"Well, I guess they aren't ponies." said Apple Jack Pinkie and Rainbow agreed. "Yeah, and what's Joint Special Operations Command" said Rainbow Dash. They all we wondering what they were. I on the other hoof, knew exactly or a least had an educated guess. I spoke up saying "I think I, at very least have a guess to what they are" "Well spit it out girl" said Apple Jack. I said "Spike do you remember that time we went into that other world or dimension to stop Sunset Shimmer."  Spike said "Yeah, but what does that have to do with these things." "Well don't they look familiar" Spike and I were essentially having a private conversation as one of the bodies the conscious dragged out coughed and and they were having conversation of their own. "Oh yeah, they look like the thing that you turned into and the brown thing kinda looks like what I turned into, if I was 2 times bigger." Seeing that their attention returned to us I began " Do you remember that time I went into that portal to get my crown back," They shook they're heads yes and I continued " Well they look like what I turned into, I think they're called humans or they're scientific name Homo Sapiens." Rarity had joined in our little group about half- way through. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Bell and Scootalo looked to be having a conversation of their own about the, what could be humans. Suddenly, the one who dragged the others out stood up, cleared his throat and said" Um.... Hello."

"Um.... Hello" I said after clearing my throat, fucking praying that they would understand me. Thankfully the purple one with a horn and wings also walked forward and said "Hello." I practically jumped for fucking joy when she did. Under my breath I said "Oh thank Christ" "Hello and uh, what is your name?" I asked hopping to at least try to have a normal conversation, well as normal as you can get while taking to multicolored ponies. She motioned to something behind her and.... holy shit is that a dragon. She spoke to it and out of fucking no where, a scroll appeared in front of it. Then she spoke up "My name is Princess Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship and you are?" "Well I am Captain Simon Riley, though my team refers to me as Specter when need arises, I am commanding officer of JSOC's  Jäger 2-4 Squad." Then a white unicorn with a deep purple mane asked "And what exactly are you."  "Well if you must know, I as well as 5 out of the six things around this crash site are humans, Homo Sapiens bipedal omnivorian primates." Then the Twilight spoke up "Did you just say omnivorian?" with a look of fear. I said "Yeah, oh but if you're scared we're just gonna eat you don't worry we'd never do it, unless our life depended on it." they began to ease up but when I said that unless our life depended on they escalated, so I calmed them "BUT, but in this case it doesn't so your ok." I saw some movement in Konrad and was making sure he was ok. He whined a little but crawled over to Jackson and began licking his face. Turning this into an opportunity, I quickly said "And if you haven't noticed, most of us are hurt. Can you please help us?" Twilight quickly nodded and yelled "Everypony, they need help, we need to get them help!" I nodded and mouthed 'Thank You' ,as ponies began taking us to the hospital. I noticed that the dragon burned the scroll up. Also the cream pony basically put the mint unicorn in a headlock to stop her from charging us, but not a 'Let's fuck'em up charge' but that of a child seeing their father after he's been away for 6 months half way across the world fighting a war. Have to ask Twilight about that.

Flashback 1; Welcome to Hell

Flashback 1;

Welcome to Hell

"Overlord this Jäger 2-4 we are approaching the storm wall. Once inside we will lose all radio contact, Over" said Anderson guiding our Chinook through the remaining winds of the previous sandstorm. "Overlord copies all, Good Luck out there 2-4" responded Overlord. I began briefing the team "Ok, team, 2 weeks and 32 hours ago we received this radio signal," I started the recording, "This is Colonel John Konrad. The attempted evacuation of Dubai ended in...complete failure. Death toll: too many." "It repeated every hour, for 2 weeks. However, 18hrs ago, it stopped." Mason asked "And what exactly does this have to do with rescuing civis?" I answered "Because 48 hours ago Delta Squad, lead by Cpt. Martin Walker were sent in to investigate. So we can only assume that either it was broken by the storm or they turned it off."

"Welcome to Hell boys and girls, we're approaching the approximate location of the signal." said Green. "Alright gear up team." I said putting on my face mask with a skull decal, helmet and googles. I grabbed my M4, loaded a magazine and pulled the charging handle twice, once to chamber a round, twice to ensure it's charged. I took my grandfather's M1911 from it's holster, and cocking it. Everyone else did the same, however Jackson had a M249 S.A.W(Squad Automatic Weapon) light machine gun and M4 Super 90 shotgun and Mason had a TAC-338 sniper and MP5. The door opened and we were immediately hit by the stench of decomposing bodies. "Spread out, find what's making that smell." I ordered. "Look at this," Jackson said pointing out the badly decomposed body that could only be identified by his uniform, as a member of the Damned 33rd. "He wasn't killed by the storm, look bullet holes" pointed out Mason.  Green suddenly shouted, "Hey guys, check the front of the chopper!" We did as told and found the bodies of locals. "They got AKs and they aren't as decomposed as that guy. You think Delta did it." I said. "I guess it's a possibility. They're is nothing we can do, BACK TO THE CHOPPA!" I said in my best Schwarzenegger impression. As we got took off, I pondered what killed the survivors.

We continued forward, we saw more bodies of survivors. Eventually we came across a crashed plane that had to many bodies around it. "We got place to land, let's check it out." We touched down and and left the helicopter. "Looks like these guys were flanked from behind, it was defiantly Delta that killed. Let's check out the plane." said Mason. As we did, we found more bodies, including 4 more members of the 33rd. "I guess this is why Delta killed them." Jackson said "Let's go nothing can be done" I ordered.

Dreams

Before I myself went to the hospital, I grabbed Green's dogtags, and our gear. I searched my bag, found my phone, put in my earbuds and put shuffle on my absolute favorite playlist. Welcome to the Family by Avenge Sevenfold filled my ears as I ran as best I could to catch up while carrying who knows how many pounds of gear. They waited for me at the doors of the hospital and when I arrived, we went in. "Hello and welco- oh hello Princess..... um what is that you have there." said the receptionist. "Um yes hello, these are humans and they need help. Don't worry about the dog Fluttershy can take care of him." said Twilight. I introduced myself "Hello, I am Cpt. Simon Riley, that is Sgt. Paul Jackson," I pointed to Mason and Anderson and said, "and they are Lt. Mason and Sgt. Anderson." "Ok we will have to do some tests but, we will see what we can do." Twilight said "Thank you." She called some nurses and they took us to different rooms. Twilight and her friends took Konrad to see Fluttershy.

We took the dog, who Cpt. Riley referred to as Konrad, to Fluttershy's Hut. She greeted us as we arrived, "Oh hello girls, and who is this." noticing Konrad. I asked "You know that loud crash this morning?". She timidly nodded. "Well it was a helicopter, and there were six things onboard. 5 were the same thing, and this was the sixth. sigh However, one of them was killed in the crash." Her expression went from a timid little smile to a large frown. "Oh dear, and why didn't you bring the rest of those dears here?" she asked. I responded by saying, "Because as I said, they could talk, made it clearly obvious that they meant now harm, not like this fella right here." pointing to Konrad. "Ok, well I could keep him until he's healed." "Thank you Fluttershy."

The tests went like any test on Earth, only a little more thorough due to us being an entirely new species altogether. By the time it was over, Mason and Anderson were awake, and I had to explain them that we were in a land of colorful ponies and that Green was dead. We were treated as best the doctors could, which wasn't as good as it could've because Green was our combat medic. We were all left in the same room and the door was marked "Humans; Don't Disturb". Twilight visited and said we would meet Princess Celestia and the other Princess as soon as we were all ok. She also said don't be surprised if we see a dark blue alicorn in our dreams. Wonder what see meant by it.

I was on a landing craft nearing a beach. I at first didn't know where I was. Then I noticed what I was looking a, what I was holding, what I was wearing, what was in my holster. I realized that I was seeing what my grandfather was seeing on D-Day, when he stormed Omaha Beach. Someone yelled "15 seconds!". I braced myself for the worst beach of D-Day. Even though I knew my grandfather made it out. TV specials can only tell you so much. The door opened and the MG42's opened fire. I or rather my granddad jump over the side and into the water. My granddad was one tough son of a bitch. Before he drowned he took off his flak jacket and the bulky radio equipment. As he made it to the surface it went from the hellhole known as Omaha Beach, to the hellhole known as Dubai. More specifically it was The Gate. I was surrounded by the civilians that were killed by Delta. However there was one thing that was different. A dark blue alicorn. "Your mind is troubled soldier, you have seen many things that would make my and my sister's army vomit." "Yes, didn't think you would have an army. Now why are you here." "I am here to assess you. Now what exactly is this place." "This is Dubai. More specifically this is The Gate.

Burial

It took us 2 days to get to the point where we could all walk. As soon as we could, I made a point to the team that we had to bury Green. The next time Twilight visited, we all made the point. I said we would need his rifle, helmet and dogtags(all of which I had) and a coffin. When I listed all the things we would need, she said she would ask her friends and get to work immediately. Because we had to improvise, we were going to do it as his rifle and helmet as a gravestone and his dogtags as the information normally on the gravestone. She arrived 4 hours later saying that it was scheduled for tomorrow. Apparently, according to the doctors, we should be good to go, though they let us rest the night in the room. When the next day came, she said that we would begin as soon as all the princess arrived.

We meet with Fluttershy and Konrad at the gravesite. I said, "Hello you must be Fluttershy. Well, uh thank you for taking care of Konrad." She gave me a timid smile and sent Komrad over. A few minutes later Celestia and Luna arrived. A few minutes after Princess Cadance, who is apparently Twilight's sister in law, arrived. I asked "Everyone here?". Twilight nodded her head and we began.

We lowered his coffin into the grave that had been dug earlier and moved into a line all saluting him. I covered the hole with dirt and moved back into line, Mason put Green's rifle over where the grave was and moved back into line, Jackson put his helmet on the rifle butt and moved back into line and finally, Anderson hooked his dogtags in the trigger guard and moved back into line.

I gave a word off warning to the ponies as we prepared the three volley salute. "Alright we're getting ready for the 3 volley salute. Now rifles ,when fired, are very loud. You may want to cover you're ears." Some took the warning, others didn't or maybe they just wanted a test. We couldn't do a traditional 3 volley salute, due to only 2 of us having an actual rifle and none of us having blanks. In a commanding tone, I ordered "Ready, Aim, FIRE!" BANG "FIRE" BANG "FIRE" BANG. We ended the ceremony by holding our weapons at our side and giving him one last salute. Suddenly Twilight asked, "Is that Lyra?". We all turned our heads to see the mint green unicorn watching us from behind a bush.

"Lyra are you sure we should be doing this?" asked Bon-Bon in a nervous voice. She had exactly been astatic when she found out Lyra was taking her to watch the humans bury their dead.
