It is the year 1944, and I am Scott, I am fighting for America in World War II, I have with here my M1 Carbine, M1911, Three Mk 2 grenades and my trusty M3 trench knife, it saved my life numerous times, that knife is the reason i'm here telling you this story, the story of how I got transported into Equestria.

It all started on a normal day, I was firing my rifle and the battlefield was like hell! If there is one thing I can’t stand is chaos, and there was plenty of it there, bullets flying everywhere, ten grenades every square inch, it was like hell, but way more deadly, if you stood still for more than two seconds, you're dead for certain, no question about it.

Well, getting back on track, I was firing my rifle and one of the Nazi soldier hit me right in the arm, the left one to be exact, and it hurt a LOT, I was feeling very dizzy and I suddenly saw a lot of flashing colors, and the I passed out, probably for the shock of the bullet but don't quote me on that.

Then I woke up in a house, I was in a sofa of some sorts, and the house was very strangely designed, and my vision was kinda blurry, My arm was bandaged, thank god, I would have probably died from blood loss by now, but where's my stuff, all my weapons are gone, except for my Knife, at least I still could defend myself, but I also had a really, but reeeeeeeeally bad headache, it was like six hammers smashing my head all at once.

My vision started clearing up, so I got up from the couch and I saw two... saw two... ummm... horses? No, that's too tiny for a horse, it looks like something out of a technicolor, it's yellow with pink hair and there are three butterflies on its ass, and there is another one with yellow hair and orange fur, three apples on its ass and is wearing a hat, what?

‘I must have knocked my head hard when I passed out’ I thought ‘I might even still be passed out!’

But that thought was completely ruled out as I felt a very sharp pain come from the bullet hole on my arm.

“Ack!” I said, sitting back on the couch as I did so.

“Oh my, are you ok?” Said the yellow pony with… wings?

“…”

“Can you speak? Are you hurt?” It said again

“…”

“…”

“What the holy hell is going on?!” I shouted as loud as a gunshot.

“Ahhh!” both of the ponies (i guess that's what you call them) recoiled, the yellow one hiding behind some furniture.

“Ah don’t need to shout like that!” Said the orange one, with a southern accent? This keeps getting stranger and stranger

“…”

“Are you goin’ mute again?”

“ummm…” I said with a confused tone of voice “Ok, this is strange, an orange colored pony that can speak, and a yellow pony with wings”

“Umm, it’s actually pegasus” The "pegasus" said still behind the furniture.

“Oh, sorry about that, well could I please have some explaining, because I don’t have the slightest idea of what’s going on” I said

“well…” The orange one said.

One explanation later

“Ok, so let me get his straight, you and Fluttershy were talking and then you heard a strange noise outside, you opened the door and saw me lying on the floor bleeding, bandaged me and put me on the sofa there” I said, pointing at the sofa.

“Yeah, pretty much, and what's your name sugar cube?” Said applejack

“The name's Scott, at your service!”

“Shouldn't we talk to Twilight about Scott?” Fluttershy asked

“Ah figure so, strange lookin' creatures, no offence Scott, are more her thing anyways”

“None taken Applejack, and who is this Twilight?”

“She's one of my friends, I think she could get you back to wherever your your from”

“Yeah, that sounds like a good plan, but before we go, where is all of my stuff?”

“It's on that table over there”

“Alright” I said as I was picking up my weapons “Let's go”

And so we walked/trotted to Twilight's house, it took a little while but we got there faster than I expected.

“Is this Twilight's house?” I asked

“Yeah, and don't ask why she lives in a tree” Said Applejack

“Why?”

“...Just don't ask”

The three of us entered the "house" and it was filled to the brim with books, you couldn't look somewhere and not see a book. I saw what I presumed was Twilight, a Lavender pony with a purple mane and a cutiemark of a star with more stars around it, and she was a unicorn by the looks of it, and besides her was a small lizard creature I was told on the way here by Applejack was named Spike, fitting name to say the least.

“Hi Twilight!” said Applejack

“Oh, I didn't notice you there!” Said Twilight, teleporting closer to us with her magic (I still can't believe that magic exists)

“And what are you?” She said, staring me right in the eyes

“The name's Scott S. Norris, but you can call me Scott”

“Oh, hi Scott, what are you here? And why do your clothes look like a bunch of leaves?”

“A loooooong story, but the short version is: I was in my world, injured my arm, big flashy lights, passed out, woke up, saw Fluttershy and Applejack, had a mini freak out, they explained what the hell is going on, we walked to your house for help, and you asked me what I am, and now we are here”

“Oh” She said “Well, I suppose that you will need a place to rest since you have been pulled out of your world by force”

“Yes, thank you for letting me stay here”

“No problem, I’ll show you where your bed is”

“Alright then!”

We headed upstairs and she showed my bed and a cabinet where I could put all of my stuff, so I put all of my guns on the cabinet and got on to the bed, since it was 11:18 pm already, then I grabbed my journal and my pen.

Day 1 on Equestria

This is my first day on Equestria, I thought it was a little strange at first but it is not so bad after all, I've made a few friends today, the people this land are quite welcoming, and I would rather stay here in this small, peaceful town than on the battlefield, risking my life, I think I will adapt very quickly to this place, but I still miss Sara, That is the only motive I will not stay here forever, I miss you Sara, I hope you're safe.
