Chapter 1: "We and teleportation."
June 18, 1815. The Battle of Waterloo.
Last and disastrous battle ended Napoleon defeated the British and their allies. We, under the command of Wellington, fought for the British Empire. And the Prussians, under the command of Blucher. But everything in a row.
I and my friends were in the same infantry regiment. Of the thirty soldiers left only five: I (Fleet), Ken, Thomass, Oliver and James.
I was just a farmer for 25 years. Trying to reduce "make ends meet", I vyrashival grain and sold, and then went into the army, that earn more. All that I can do - is to shoot and reload a musket and saber fight.
Ken was the oldest of us 29 years. Knew medicine: Could reduce a back bone to stop the bleeding. Thanks to him, many survived and even went back into operation.
Thomas (26 years) was the smartest of us. He knew several languages and tackled the most difficult puzzles. But average sult with a musket and sword. Sometimes it can give some strange scientific term.
Oliver (28 years) the most experienced soldiers of us. Quickly reloaded his musket and cleverly fenced. We all learned from him military training.
James was only 19 years old. Do not have time to even pastupit service and was sent to the front. He did not know a lot about muskets, long reloading it. Barely holding a long sword and it raised his hand. But the swing was so weak that it may discourage a child.
So. We walked across the battlefield, perespupaya dead bodies. In one hand I held a musket in the other - Flag of Great Britain.
"Oh my God, I can not believe I'm going to die here!" - James Keach, wiped his hand sweat and tears.
Here near Oliver hit him in the chest with his elbow and said, "Shut up, you idiot! We're all gonna die!"
"Guys, stop - I said - let's go."
We walked a few meters in front of us and slammed into the ground cannonball. With shouts and cries, we fell to the ground. Last I saw it falling on the ground, Ken, and my eyes darkened.
The darkness lasted for almost an eternity, if I may say so. However, the light in his eyes brought me back to life. Getting up and sitting down on the ground, I tried to get used to the light. When I began to see well, said Ken Thomas, Oliver and James. Coughing and grabbing rum air, they began to slowly get up to heat. All were alive. When he looked around, I was shocked. The sky was bright, grass green and soft, and around nebilo no corpse.
"Oh, what's going on, where are we?" - Ken started.
"Do not know. Waterloo It's definitely not." - Thomas said.
"Well, it's probably some kind of forest." - Oliver said.
"Where is everyone? Where is everyone?" - James said through tears.
"So, guys, calm down. We need to get together and find someone local realties." - I said.
Picking up the muskets and other useful items that are around us, we went to the eyes look. We walked about 15 minutes, until they reached the hill. We decided to rest beside him. Thomas decided to climb to the top of the hill and look around.
"Guys, look at this" - said Thomas hilltop.
We did not argue, and climbed the hill behind Thomas. When we climbed we saw - THIS!
Chapter 2: "Introduction."
Chapter 2: "Introduction."
When we climbed the hill, visible small town with houses, mills and stuff like that.
"Oh the city. Hmm, it's not Waterloo." - I said.
"Yes, not Waterloo. I do not know this city and not videl.No is not important.
Look over there "- said Thomas and pointed direction.
We looked and saw six horses that were dalike from us. We have carefully considered them.
"Sir, I do not understand. They different colors and they are ..." - James said.
I interrupted him: "Yes, James, it's ... er ... pony. What ... some of them ... Unicorns, Pegasus, the other ... er ... simple."
"Heh, some nonsense. I'll deal." - Oliver said and pointed his gun at them.
"Oliver, what are you doing? - I stopped him. - Do not shoot them!"
"Guys, they seem to have noticed." - Ken said.
It was. They looked at us, and peered long, trying to understand who we are. Soon they began to approach a little closer.
"I do not like it. Come here." - James said excitedly.
"Calm down, James." - Thomas said.
"How to calm down, look, they come to us. What can they do to us?"
After he went to the cautious gait us. Meanwhile, we retreated. But Thomas did not dare, and said:
"No, guys, I'm not going anywhere. I go up to them. Maybe they're good."
"Stop, you fool, stop!" - I said, but Thomas did not even turn around.
James also decided on this and went to Thomas.
"Oh, Thomas, I'm with you." - He said.
"Well done." - Thomas said.
Ponies were already close to us. We got up and started watching what happens. Pony and Thomas James were at a distance of 7-8 meters from each other. I am wary.
"Ken Oliver, take this with muskets in hand. If they attack, we will be ready." - I said, stuck in the land of the flag also took a musket.
Meanwhile, Thomas began to speak to them:
"Hi, po ... pony."
"You are talking in our language? - Said Violet Unicorn. - Who are you?"
"My ... my name is Thomas, is James. We the people."
"People? We never heard about people." - Said Blue Pegasus and flew us by closer, peering into the faces of Thomas and James.
"So guys, put muskets on their shoulders and let's go." - I said, pulling the flag out of the ground.
When we went to Thomas and James, Blue Pegasus asked:
"What's your name?"
"Yes, and you" - added Purple Unicorn.
"My name is Fleet, which Ken and Oliver, we Guard Regiment of the British." - I said.
"It's clear. My name is Twilight Sparkle, and these are my friends: Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy."
"Nice to meet you. We are here by accident, do not know how we got here."
"You have come from somewhere?" - Asked Applejack.
"We're not from here. Unscientific We got here, I can not explain it in terms of science. Simply put - we moved in space." - Thomas explained.
"Personally, I think that you really pereremestilis from their world into ours.
Now let's go to Ponyville. "- Said Twilight.
"Now I understand how it's called." - I said.
And we all went to town.
Chapter 3: "In the town of ponies."
Chapter 3: "In the town of ponies."
We came to their town - Ponyville. He was like many small towns, which were built in the Middle Ages in the 13-15 century. Some houses were made of wood, others of stone. All ponies looked at us with suspicion, some came close to us, that would be considered. They talked among themselves, discussing us, our clothes and stuff that we were holding or who have hung on. Oliver was determined. With one hand he held a gun, the other - the handle of the sword. But James still could not calm down. Panting, he looked around.
Finally, we come since... Home-tree.
"Come on, people." - Twilight said and opened the door.
Yeah, the doorway was below us and we had to bend a little to get through, not to mention the ponies that we were on the belt.
When we entered, we saw a large library with a pile of books. Apparently, Thomas likes this. Others, including me, just inspected.
"Now we can talk to you people." - Said Twilight.
"We can not wait to ask you some questions, boys." - Said Rarity.
"Good." - I said.
"Ask your questions." - Thomas said.
We have wanted to ask about something, but James dropped his his musket, and everybody saw it. Is good that is not a musket Shots due to a fall.
"Oh, sorry." - James said, raising his musket.
"So this is for you ... things?" - Asked Twilight.
"It looks like ... a spear. - Said Rainbow Dash, considering the musket and touching his butt. - Strange they form."
"Oh, be careful. They can also poke the eye. They are sharp and long" - said Fluttershy.
"I do not understand. Why your iron spears are located strange device? Why do they need?" - Asked Applejack.
"Fleet, let me explain - Oliver said, unslung his musket and went to the pony. -
It's not quite a spear. This weapon is a hundred times better and more dangerous spear. Here, it's a musket. "
"Never heard of it. Tell." - Said Twilight.
"Well, they can fight in melee, and more of it, you can shoot like a bow or crossbow. But that does not bow and crossbow, and he did not shoot arrows and bullets like this." - Oliver explained and pulled out his round, lead bullet. Twilight took a bullet magic and levitated her in front of him, considering.
"And the ball can kill someone?" - She said.
Twilight Oliver returned the bullet now and asked me:
"Mr. Fleet, What have you got in your other hand?"
"Oh, that. Just flag. And call me just Flit." - I replied.
"Well, Flit. Can you show it?"
I agreed and turned the flag.
"And what did he mean?"
"He is the flag of the British Empire and was being taken to fight like a banner."
"And what do the colors?"
"I can explain. - Thomas answered and took my flag. - As I see it, the white color represents the generosity and frankness, White means peace and honesty, Red - firmness, courage, strength and valor, Blue - truth and loyalty, perseverance and justice. Well, so it is written in the books "
"Wow! - Twilight was surprised and also has viewed the flag. - Hmm, I think that the more red... or blue."
"Boys are more colors on the flag. Too, I can not identify." - Said Rarity.
"Oh, if the red is more, you are strong, and if less than white, then you are not too noble and honest. This is terrible!" - Crouching said Fluttershy.
"All is well. Actually, according to the book, the colors on the flag of an equal amount. So we are around the same." - Thomas said.
But they could not even ask about us, as the evening came, and all the ponies began to disperse to their homes. Twilight allowed to stay with her. However, it rastroilas and regretted that there is no place to sleep. But we have to sleep on the bare floor is not the first time. On the eve of the Battle of Waterloo, we almost slept on the ground.
Thus ended the first day of our first in the new world.
