There is so many of them as many choices can be made in history, by whole nations or single man. This story takes place in one of those universes. Where choices of few changed world forever. This is story about men and women who were able to sacrifice so much for strangers. This story is about tyranny and oppression, but also about hope and liberation. Because when you’re a shine example amongst the others, in the time of your fall, those who where enlightened be you, will come with help. FALL OF EQUESTRIA – FOREIGN INTERVENTION “Peace is more than the absence of war. Peace is accord. Harmony.” ~Laini Taylor, Daughter of Smoke & Bone~ I stood on large podium, below me three thousand men stood in perfect columns. “Soldiers! My brothers and sisters, we gathered here today in the annual maneuvers. Look at you, four years ago, we where only a group of friends, today we are a brave soldiers. We swore to protect those who may appear in our lands. Those who became our idols, heroes and role models. We will train hard and we will show whole world that we still are here, still on guard. It is duty and honor. Good luck, Dismissed!” – I end his speech. Watching as my men walk away, I zone out for the moment. What a strange four years there was. Firstly, information of invention of interdimensional travel then hundreds theories that every fiction ever made is somewhere true in the multiverse. Most people passed on the agenda very quickly. But not all of them, this invention changed destiny of one group – Bronies. After that events moved rapidly, two months after discovery great convention took place in Memphis, bronies came to City from all over the world. There was a delegations from every country. They wanted to discuss further steps in relation to recent events, as a result a “Treaty of Mississippi” was sigh up. In power of this treaty, bronies become a full power organization with their own political leadership and arm forces. United Bronies Association, was a name of new organization. It was lead by United Bronies Council composed of six representatives, one for each continent. They were elected by full democratic elections host every two years. Firstly, United Bronies Army or UBA for short, had only two hundreds soldiers, mostly veterans from different countries, but with time we become strong enough to face most of nations in the world. Actually UBA has half million soldiers ready to battle and one hounded thousand in reserve. Most of equipment is storage in large privet islands in Pacific and Atlantic, all of them belong to United Bronies Association. The Army that never fight, the army of those who do nothing, that is how we are called in the world. We never took a part in operation, although we were asked many times, in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and many more. We always refused, but we trained every year, to be ready, for something that even we had no idea what that may be. Four years ago I was only a simple brony from middle Europe. Now I am European councilor for UBC and supreme commander of UBA. Marshal Jason Lisinski, it’s sounds good. “Jason I have rapport for you from first flotilla” the voice of my good friend Marcus returned me to the world of leaving. “Thank you Marcus” I said taking files from him. I looked what was in the files. Mostly informations about level of supplies in each ship, readiness of the crews or planed exercises, only two informations was more important installation of new main arrangement of U.B.S Celestial Wrath and replacement of catapult ropes in U.B.S Laughter. I closed the files and walked into a building behind me. Inside work was on full swing, dozens of men and women walked around completing their tasks. Organized chaos, Discord would be proud. One more training, one more simulation, of counter offensive in the case of TCB threat. They trained every possible scenario from changlings infiltration to Discord chaos war. They consider Equestria as an ally or foe. “How are we going?” I asked “ Everyting is going according to the plan. Sir! Our triple A keeping pegasi at bay when air force eliminating their unicorns.” Answered one of officers in the desk in front of me. Of course there was no pegasi or unicorns, all of this was only a simulation. The dimensional travel was invented four years ago, and we are still waiting for first contact with Equestria. Rest of the day past swiftly, with that first day of training was over, also I decided to visit the troops tomorrow. Alarm rang at 0700, after quick morning toilet I put my uniform on and informed the driver to prepare a hamvee. After few minutes outside I was wet from my own sweat. Uniform glued to the body, making this even harder to withstand. Damn Pacific island, air humidity more that 70% and 30 degrees in Celsius scale. In addition, I carried a few tenth of pounds of equipment, I wanted to be “closer to my soldiers” so instead my parade uniform I had field one, I had SCAR assault rifle in L version. Eight additional magazines to it, three HE grenades one flash and one smoke. I was prepared for a imaginary war. We were traveling a narrow road in the dense jungle. Than part of the road collapsed , my driver lost control for a moment, that was enough for hit nearby tree. It made me dizzy for the moment, when I took back full control of my senses I looked at my driver, he was conscious and looked at me now. “Sir! Are you ok?” asked with pure grimace of pain on his face. “ Yes sergeant I am ok, but what about you?” I asked him. “I am fine Sir.” I looked at him with face “don’t give me that bullshit soldier”. “It is my leg sir, I think I broke it” he answered. I reached for the radio. “Harmony Leader to White Nest, White Nest come in!” that was no respond. “ Harmony Leader to White Nest I need medivac over!” still nothing “Here Marshal Jason Lisinski to all UBA personnel on this frequency, please respond! Over!” silence. “Damn it, maybe radio is damage, I will try to use my personal one” I said. But only thing I heard was static. I exit a hamvee to look around, we were in same damn valley, old lava riverbed, on both our side were located vertical slopes reaching several meters up. “It must be it, because this slopes we can’t contact with anybody. Stupid useless piece of crap. It has a ability to communicate between dimensions, but have a problem in goddamn valley!” This communication equipment was one of most advanced in the world. It was designed for U.S Army, to enable them to communicate with the Earth, when they explore a new world. They get it because a one of the men who worked on this project was a brony. Let’s just say that we “borrow” the design. I enter hamvee once more. “Listen we are in goddamn valley, communication don’t work, I have to find higher ground to call for help. You have to hold on. I will bring a help” I said to wounded sergeant. “Go Sir. I will wait for you Sir.” I looked at him once more, place my hand on his shoulder and I nodded. I already walked for half an hour, the terrain was higher than before but still there was still only static in radio. “I had to find higher place” I told to myself. I had all my equipment with me, rifle, grenades, ammo, backpack etc. It hard to imagine but there was even hotter than before. I remembered about proper hydration in situation like this. Then I saw something very strange, bright white light emanated from behind a trees. I never witness such a thing, I was not sure what I should do. Finally I decided to check this light. Slowly I raised by SCARL and walked toward the strange light. When I was getting close to the light, by accident I hooked my foot on a root, I lost my balance and fell forward. When I woke up I was lying on the grass. My SCARL was laying next to me, I grab him and I got up from the ground. But there was something wrong with this picture. Instead a jungle there was a typical deciduous forest. “What the hell happed? Where I am?” I asked myself, then it hit me. After we start ripping of fabric of space, natural portals stated to appeared from time to time. It was nothing unusual now. “ It has to be a answered I am in other dimension.” Then my heart sink, sergeant was waiting for me there. I have to inform someone” I reached for my radio. “Maybe you will work this time.” “Harmony Leader to White Nest, White Nest come in!” still only static. “Fuck! What is with this radio!” I started to look for the portal that brought me here, but without resultants. It had to close behind me. “Damn it” I cursed, hitting nearby tree by me fist. I took a few deep breaths and calmed down. I needed to find a way out of this forest and find out where I am. The trees seemed to be less frequent in the West so I decided to move in this direction. Finally I stood on the edge of the forest, in front of me stretched a beautiful view of a town. I froze, I knew this view. This buildings, there was no other possibility, there was I looking at... Ponyvielle. Then I heard the roar of the engine, I fell to the ground as two biplanes flew over me. One was sure the markings on the wings were not Equestrian. I heard a huge scream from the town, many characters ran out of town heading for the forest. To my surprise they were bipeds, not quadrupedal as I expected. Now I saw that most of them are mares. Suddenly several explosions went through Ponyvielle. I heard more screams comming from the town. At this moment I had no idea what is happening. And then I saw them, they where soldiers but huge antlers on their heads told me that they are certainly not ponies, antro or not. Several tankettes supported the advancing infantry, I watched at horror as few soldiers catch one of running mares, and began rape her as rest of soldiers advanced. Now I was sure what I saw, only one species capable of something like this... caribou. I wanted to help, to attack this bustards, but I realized that he will do nothing. I was only one soldier, and there marched at least a battalion with an armored support. I was forced to wait, watch as another mores are capture and raped in front of my eyes. I hope that even though some of them will reach to the forest. Then I saw them antro mane 6 ran in my direction. “Come on, Come on you can do it girls!” I prayed. But a few meters from the forest, six soldiers struck them on the ground. They started to rip their clothes. “Kurwa, so close” I cursed in my native language. I searched in all the way around, most of the soldiers were busy elsewhere, it was my chance. I knelt and switch safety off. Twilight POV She was terrified, her clothes was rip of, she knew what will happened now, she cried so much, she field him on her, his member start to press on her marehood. She would be violated, in most horrible way, she knew that it is only a beginning, she heard about a “training”. Suddenly there was a strange sound, as if someone was shooting up close, but at the same time from a distance. Suddenly, the weight of a caribou soldier was gone, she looked back. Caribou was dead, part of his head was gone, blood and pieces of brain was everywhere. Suddenly the view make her sick, so she quickly looked away searching for her friends. All were whole and healthy, which could not be said of soldiers. From the corner of my eye she saw movement from the forest. In between the trees came out a creature, it look like a stallion to her, in his hands he held a strange gun. “Do not just stand there, over to the forest.” He shout. “ Who is he?” asked Rainbow. “ I don’t know but I sure he just save us” answered Twilight. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ “For fuck's sake, what are you doing there? This is not the time to debate! We need to run!” I shout. Finally they looked at each other and started to run toward the trees. “Who are you” asked Twilight. “Someone who just save your sorry...” I stopped myself, this term was inappropriate in this situation. “ I just save you, now we must move” I said. “ And why we should trust you? Huu” Asked Rainbow. “ Because, your choices are rather limited miss. You can stay with me and have some kind of protection, or you have always caribou” I did not mean it to be mean, but she pissed me of with Are you a spy? In moment where we have battalion of violators on our tail. “Knock it off Dash, He just save us, a little gratitude. Thank you partner, for what you done” said Applejack. “Ok we will talk latter now we have to get out of here as far as we can. It is not safe here. Let’s go!” I said, and started walking toward the woods, and the girls followed me. Call for HelpWars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory. ~George S. Patton~ “Of all the worlds had just landed in this one. The worst possible universe ever” I muttered to myself. “Girls, we need to go faster, they're probably already looking for responsible about the six bodies.” I told them. “Why you helping us?” asked Twilight “I was around when everything has started and I couldn’t just look at it” I answered. “Thank you” said Twilight I smiled at her. “No need to thank me, be the way my name is Jason” “I am Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and Rarity.” She smiled back. “It really nice to meet you all but we have to move. They probably already chasing us.” We walked all night, venturing deep into the forest. Adrenaline began to slowly fall and we started to feel the fatigue. Girls barely gone, so I decided that we should rest a little. We found uninhabited cave, just perfect for us. “I think we lost them. We should rest a bit, this cave will serve as a great shelter. Wait here, I have to do something. ” I said to them. A few dozen meters away, I pulled a grenade from my belt and fishing line from my backpack. “What are you doing?” asked someone behind me, startled I quickly turned wielding knife. Behind me stood Twilight. I put the knife down. “I am preparing few traps, to be sure that no one is still looking for us.” I tied a grenade to a tree, and stretched fishing line between two trees. “ If someone is going to go this way, he will stumbles on the fishing line, then fishing line will pull the pin from a grenade. Explosion will warn us.” I said to her. “Now go to sleep, rest. I will prepare few more, and then I will join you all.” It took me a while to prepare two more traps, or rather find good spots for them. When everything was ready, I went back to the girls. “Everything is ready” I said. I sat near the girls dead silence fell no one knew how to start the conversation. Finally Twilight began. “ Ones more thank you, for what you done. If you do not act, it would be ... I prefer not to think about that” “ She is right there partner, if not you, we would meet fate worse than death” said Applejack. “Yep you were super duper-extraliski” Pinkie sang “Extraliski?” I asked confused. “It is Pinkie is being Pinkie, don’t think about it too much” said Rainbow. “Yeah she was probably right, after all we are talking about Pinkie” I thought. “If you do not mind, I'd like to ask what are we gonna do now.” Asked Fluttershy. “I saw the mountain range, we should go there, it is very difficult to find someone in the mountainous terrain, especially if we can find a network of caves.” I said. “You know a lot about these things, are you a soldier?” asked Twilight. “Yes I am, Marshal Jason Lisinski at your services.” I said bowing my head. Girls eyes widened in shock. “You're kidding right. no marshal would March in the war-torn country, without a reason” said Rainbow. The girls looked at me warily. I did not blame them, they were in a situation where it is not easy to trust anybody. I had to tell at least part of the truth, I had to calm them down somehow. “Ok listen, I know that this may seem strange to you, but I got here by accident.” “Yeah it is hard to believe” Rainbow said sarcastically. “Ehhh just let me finish. How I told you I am Marshal Jason Lasinski, I am also supreme commander of United Brony Army. You see, four years ago , my species discover trans-dimensional travel. Since then, natural portals began to appear in our world, normally they were quickly found and closed, but sometimes someone did fell into one of them. I fell into one of them, and that’s how I ended here” “Wait a moment so you are a alien?” asked Twilight, completely confused. “In some sense, yes I am.” I answered. “Could you… you know… help us somehow? I am just so scared.” Said Fluttershy, her voice was collapsing because of crying. “I would very like to Fluttershy, but I don’t have the means to communicate with my world. I have radio but it doesn’t work.” I said pulling the radio out of belt and showing her. “Can I see it, I may be able to fix it” asked Twilight. “Do you know how to fix interdimensional radio?” I asked surprised. “No but this radio is not broken” she said, holding it in her hands. I was I was really surprised, What did she mean that it wasn’t damaged. “Equestria magic is blocking signal, but if I cast a proper spell it should work.” Her horn and radio began to glow. “Done, try now.” She said with smile. I was not sure what actually happened, it was so fast, I hesitantly took the radio into my hand. “Harmony leader to white nest, come in” only answer was static. “Harmony leader to white nest, do you copy? Over!” still nothing. “Harmony leader to white nest, Marcus god dammed answer me!” I was so frustrated, for a moment I hope someone will answer. I was so angry that I almost have thrown the radio on the wall of the cave. I was about to do it when… “Harmony leader here white nest, we read you loud and clear!” answered radio. “It is good to hear you Sir, we started to worry, we found sergeant Szulc, and he told us that you went for help Sir, and never returned.” “I am fine I felt into a natural inter-dimensional portal. I am in Equestria now.” I said. “Sir, You are in Equestria! General Davis is here, and want to speak with you. Please wait a moment Sir.” “Jason is it you?” asked well know voice. “It is me Marcus.” I answered. “Lieutenant here, almost pissed as he heard that you are in Equestria.” his laughter was heard throughout the cave. “Marcus, listen, I have a problem, it is bad here.” I said. “What? Are you landed in Fallout:Equestria?” he asked with concern in his voice. “Worse, check G-015 file.” I answered. For a minute felt complete silence. “Are you sure of that. That you are in FOE?” In his voice I could feel growing anger. “You know file G-015?” I asked. “Yeah I browsed sections G few days ago. Listen I just transfer this information to the counsel. They have meeting right now. Do you want…” “Patch me thru.” I said. There was several sounds from radio and another voice said. “Jason, good to hear you, we already know where are you. How you holding up?” “Paula how you think I am holding up? I need help, baa Equestria need a help. You are a women so I don’t have to that what is doing here is bad as hell.” I said. “We realize that the situation is bad but I do not think we need to send army.”This statement stunned me. “What the fuck? What the fuck have you said John!” I was beyond angry I was downright pissed. “Calm down, do you even realize that we are talking about 600 000 Bronies that will be sent to war. Do you know the cost of such war?” said John. I felt that my blood boils. “Tell me one think John WHY UBA was created, WHY counsel was created, WHY the FUCK we gather in Memphis four years ago! Answer me WHY!” he was lucky I was in another dimension otherwise I would kill the bustard by my own hands. “I will answered you, BECAUSE there was two reason that UBA was created, one if Equestria was in danger and was friendly to defend it or if Equestria was hostile to defend Earth. Next to me are Mane 6, tell it them right INTO the FACE, that you are a coward! That it will be no help! That they become a fucking sex toys, and you will watch it and do nothing! What you want? Express concern about the situation? To say that Bronies support the territorial integrity of Equestria and gender equality. And that’s it! You become a fucking politician, a lot of talking, little working.” I threw at him my frustration. “And you are a warmonger!” he shout back. “No I am not you fucking idiot, I know that there is a time when conversation will do nothing. There is the time where you need to put situation on a knife edge. They are the beings who only understand power politics. Because there are times when it is the end of diplomacy and comes the beginning of the intervention. We are called to such a situation. That is why we were created. Time to fulfill our duty! As a Chancellor on behalf of the Europe I give under the vote act of declaring war on the kingdom of Caribou.” “ You know John, but Jason is right, this is why we were created after all. As a Chancellor on behalf of the South America I support this declaration.” Said Paula. “Yes this is right thing to do. As a Chancellor on behalf of the Africa. I support this declaration.” Said another voice. “John I understand your concern but, this is Equestria we talking about. As a Chancellor on behalf of the Asia. I support this declaration” “I am with Jason in this one. We not always agreed but this time he is right. As a Chancellor on behalf of the Australia and Oceania. I support this declaration.” There was silence Jason could not know but rest of chancellors constantly looked at John. “Ehh so be it. But there will be a lot of body bags. As a Chancellor on behalf of the North America. I support this declaration.” “So decided, as of today the United Bronies Association is in the state war with the kingdom of Caribou. We are ordering full mobilization of United Bronies Army and call to arms all reservists. This day will be marked in history, today Bronies go to war. This meeting is considered as completed. Good luck Jason.” Said Paula. “Jason I just got a message. Mobilization has already begun. Give us two weeks and we will be there. Bastards will get what they deserve. Hold on and good luck. Davis over and out.” Localization unknown… Somewhere on the Pacific Ocean… UBA HQ... Two guards stood by the huge armored door. Markus went to the door and ordered. “Open the door!” The guards turned and put two keys in the holes and twisted at the same time. The door hissed and opened. Markus went inside, huge metal cabinets occupied most of the room. On each of them was marked with single letter, from A to Z. Markus went to the cabinet with the letter G, and then he opened it and then pulled out a file with a number 015. On the cover were two red subtitles. “TOP SECRET” and “EYES ONLY” When he opened the file he saw a headline proclaiming… FALL OF EQESTRIA SCENARIO OPERATION EPONA Author's Note Please if you see any typos, let me know. Thank you. MobilizationChapter 3 The man sat down on a chair, in front of him was reporter with cameraman. “It is honor to meet you Colonel Kochman” said reporter “Likewise” “Sir, as you now we are here to asked some questions about events at led to Caribou war.” “I am aware of it.” “So, please tell me how all this started” Reporter nod his head in the direction of the cameraman, small red light lit up on camera, showing that recording began. Paul was a twenty years old, he lived in Hamburg, the city was full of Bronies belonging to the UBA, they moved to the city or in its vicinity, since the local airport was one of the main places where in the case of emergency UBA soldiers would be transported to bases in the Atlantic. They caused a huge growth of the city itself, and factories of all kinds have grown like mushrooms after the rain. Paul also was a soldier, he served in the 23 UBA Airborne Division. It was just another normal day, there was no signs of the coming storm. Paul just came home, it was already after six p.m. and sky was beginning to get dark. When he opened the door, his fiancée greeted him on the spot. “Hi, my Liebe. How was your day at work.” she kissed him. „Tiring.” he answered. Suddenly someone knock at the door. - I wonder who it could be? – Paul said. When he opened the door, before him stood a UBA courier. - Sergeant Kochman? – asked a courier. - Yes I am – he was surprised with what he knew there was no ordered exercises in the near future. - It's for you, Sir. – he gave him a envelope, then saluted and left. Paul opened a envelope, his eyes widened when he read what was inside. Serial EVN number 11544 Hamburg day. 2021.27.11 Ordinance of mobilization Based on article 65 of Treaty of Mississippi signed May 4, 2017 of the creation of United Bronies Armed Forces. Mr/Miss/Mrs. SEARGEAT PAUL KOCHMAN Born: August 3, 2003 Having a military ID number DEU115470 Is obliged to attend to active military service in 23 Airborne Division *meeting place HAMBURG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT PRIVET SECTOR 2025.29.11 0700 hour . . . Somewhere in Atlantic Jackson was inside crew compartment of amphibious assault vessel. It was the fifth practice landing on the beaches, since the declaration of war. Every day more and more soldiers , were coming on the islands. They were part of the First UB Marine Division, Jackson knew that they will be the first who hit the beaches. The vehicle is shaking, that means they enter a beach. Amphibian finally stopped, the rear door opened, and they ran to the beach. They formed a line of infantry supported by amphibians. - Move, move, move! - shouted the captain of Jackson’s company. It was one of the many of exercises they had after declaration of war. Assaulting the beach, capturing key points in enemy costal defenses, urban fight. Most focus was put on this aspects. UBA never had much of ground forces. UBA military doctrine was about air and naval control, with high mobile ground forces, that were able to do quick strikes, make much damage to enemy forces and withdraw before main forces arrive. Rear admiral Yamamura stood in the bridge of U.B.S Celestial Wrath watching the pride of United Bronies Army it’s Navy. In harbor next to him ship were two of the seven aircraft carriers U.B.S Laughter and U.B.S Loyalty. Going further he saw five frigates U.B.S Ponyvielle, U.B.S Manehattan, U.B.S Batlimare, U.B.S Hoofington and U.B.S Canterlot, next to them were destroyers and cruisers, U.B.S Snowdrop and U.B.S Nyx naming a few. In this moment one of submarines was entering a harbor. “Probably Faust class” he thought. Thousands people have been working by past four days, loading supplies to the ships, making sure that fleet will have everything what is needed when shit will hit a fan. In the corner of the harbor, he saw at least ten containers ship, they belonged to the one of shipping companies controlled by counsel. In time of peace those ship were second source of income for association, just behind donations, but they were build for war too. Marshal have make sure of that each container ship could be easy convert to troop transport ship. All what was needed was to install some prefabricated walls. And that was exactly what was happening right now. “Red light! Stand up!” shouted Paul. All men immediately stood up. “Secure your line!” all men hooked the rope on the tube. “Jumping out of airplane is safest thing of men can do, if he fallows a proper procedure. When red light goes green you jump, fallow the men in front of you, don’t stop don’t think” Red light changed to green. “Go, go, go!” shouted Paul, two rows of soldiers starting to jumped out of the rear hatch, to immediately land on grass. Model of C-130 interior was one of many training places in 23rd Airborne training facility. They trained over and over again to make sure that nothing will go wrong, when the time come. Soldiers gather near a model in two rows. Paul address them. “Remember static line will deploy your chute automatically, chute is design to drop you straight down. Everyone of you will know landmarks of you DZ, so look for them and land. Leave DZ as soon as you hit the ground! Don’t stay in open field more then you needed, move towards a trees.” Laud sound pierced the air as two large C-130 flow just above them, each day more and more soldiers have been arriving in 23rd base. Division was now in 70% of its strength, yesterday the 5th transport wing arrived at base with its C-130s and now airfield was crowded with planes. “Ok boys, go to mess and get something, and remember today at 2000 hour we have schedule a night jumping, rally in the airfield at 1830 hour. Got it!” said Paul. “Sir, yes, Sir!”soldiers answered. “You are dismiss.” Paul watched as his squad moved towards a mess, they were young most of them in their 19s. They were all very enthusiastic, not that he was much older or less excited, just he had this feeling that many of them will not return home. He walked towards an airfield, he always liked watching airplanes as they land and took off. It was… relaxing, many would argue, ‘cause noise of those C-130s was deafening but he had this ability to completely turn off some off this senses and simply watch and not register any sound at all. Airfield was located in small valley between two embankments. Small wooden fence was build at top of earthwork, Paul leaned on fence and watched as another Hercules land on airfield. He saw as on another side of runway, technicians were working around planes. He was wondering was marshal was doing behind enemy lines. Equestria four days ago. Jason woke up when thundering sound rocked though forest, one of traps was activated. He quickly grab his weapon and shake Twilight. “ Wake up, we have to hurry!” he said. “What happened?” asked Twilight in sleepy voice. “ They found us, we have to go, wake up the rest. We have to go!” Twilight immediately snapped and started waking up the rest of her friends. It took a minute to bring girls to “usable” condition. “Ok follow me and stay quiet” said Jason. They exit a cave and moved towards south, and then second explosion shook a forest. “Damn it, they are closer than I thought. We have to move faster” cursed Jason. They almost run, trying to lose their pursuers. Then Jason heard shouting, they were definitely orders. He look behind him and sow them, Caribou soldiers. One of them raised his weapon… “Take cover!” he shouted and tackled Twilight to the ground, exactly at the moment when the bullet hit tree bark in place when Twilight head was a second ago. “Girls get down and stay behind a trees.” He shouted and shoot back at Caribou solder, he saw how soldier body shook violently and fell to the ground. He sow a large rock and skipped there, using it as a cover. When he killed this solder rest of them stopped knowing that their prey can bite back. There was at least ten of them. “Ten to one… yeah seems legit” he said to himself. One of Caribou leaned out from behind a tree to earn bullet into his head. Then firefight started, two soldiers tried to skipped behind trees for better position only to be killed by Jason. But when he focus on one side next two Caribou used this opportunity to move and know they were suppressing him with their fire. “Fuck!” he cursed. Then he saw that from his back another squad is encircling them. He shoot at newcomers killing two of them. He saw another one, he was already aiming at Jason, Jason raised his SCARL and… click. This was it, there was no way he would pull out his sidearm in time, and then Caribou head blew up into pieces. From nowhere few dozens of ponies run into battle attacking Caribou from behind. Jason use this and change his magazine. Returning fire to enemy soldiers. And there it was, the battle was over. “Are we alive?” asked Rarity. “Yeah I think we are” answered Jason. “But I have no idea what just happened” One of ponies approached them, he was wearing and used uniform, there were holes in it, probably from branches in the forest, dust and mud was covering it. He held some weapon, it has locked like some rifle from second war world. Jason stood up asked “ Whom should I thank for saving life?” “ Captain Lance Shield, Equestrian resistance” he answered. Author's Note Uff finally done, it took a while, but there it is. ResistanceChapter 4 Caribou soldiers were chasing them. Twilight ran as fast as she could, but they were getting closer and closer. Something was very wrong, she ran and ran but it looked like she wasn’t moving at all. Suddenly the ground underneath her disappeared and what was left was black oblivion, she fell with scream. “Aaaaaaaa…”Twilight woke up with heavily breathing. She was in large room in her apartment. With a growl she got out of bed and went out onto the balcony. Large gardens surround her home, above trees she saw lights of large skyscrapers creating a heart of Aurora City. Memories, she had this nightmares from the end of war. She saw as a patrol passed beneath her. She knew that now at least four agents were observing her, so much change since the end of the Caribou war, she was a different mare now, but memories of those days were still with her. Forest was really dense, but resistance fighters looked like they knew exactly where to go. After a firefight and quick introduction they moved deep into the forest. Jason and Lance Shield have been walking arm to arm while six mares follow right after them. The sun’s rays shined through treetops, lighting their path. “…we've operate in this forest for a month now. When Caribou shattered our third army during battle of Rainbow falls what was left of us tried to contact with Royal Canterlot Army, before we arrived here RCA was already lost. So we decide to stay here and create resistance cell…” said Lance Shield. He and Jason have been talking since they left a battlefield. “So, how you were able to find us, in this bloody forest?” asked Jason. “Believe me or not, but this was more about luck than knowledge. We spotted one of the patrols that this fuckers send into forest and decide to follow it. It looked like we had more luck that we hoped for. Rescue bearers of Harmony and foreign dignitary” smiled Captain. “And once again thank you for saving our sorry asses” answered Jason. “Speaking of which, Can you tell me more about this UBA? I am really curios about it.” They were talking for the whole trip. But Twilight was sure that something was off about Jason. He still had this smile of his but the way he was talking or rather the words he spoke, they were not entirely true, like he was hiding something. She knew that feeling, she had this feeling every time when princess Celestia had a political meeting. “… so as you can see UBA is international association, which in cooperation with others who value freedom and friendship. UBA strictly opposed organizations or governments whose violate rights of sapient species or pursue totalitarian politics.” “Is there any possibility that you can help us? Food, weapons, ammunition, believe me, we can pay for them.” Asked Lance Shield. “It’s not my call to make. Council have to assemble and make decision like this, but in the moment I will return to my people, I will pursue this idea.” Twilight was in shock, she heard herself when he spoke with rest of the council and declared the war on Caribou. Why he didn’t said it to the Captain? Why he changed his attitude after meeting of them? It was strange, he apparently didn’t want Captain to know but why? Twilight decide to asked him later when they will be alone. “ I completely understand” he stopped, Twilight saw that they stood in front of small cave. Entrance was guarded by two soldiers. “Well here we are, our home” “Nice place, very good hidden” said Jason. “ Fortunately few of us grown in nearby village, they know this place like their own pocket, but for outsider this place is nearly impossible to spotted.” They enter the cave, strangely enough it looked like whole cave system was illuminated. Wires on the ceiling were pretty everywhere, bundled and fixed to the stone wall. “You have a power. How?” asked Jason. “Magical generators, not very effective but they doing the job” “Magical generators? How are they working? Jason was truly interested in this development. However before Lance Shield was able to answered Twilight entered her lecture mode and said: “ They operate on magical crystals, which can be mined only in frozen north. Each crystal working as battery, storing energy produce any other way. Not like the name suggest this doesn’t need to be magical energy, you can simply throw them to fireplace and wait. Of course using unicorn magic is quickest way and most efficient. They are very expensive to, I never heard that anypony had some in their home. But military bought many of them.” “Yes this true, army always had eye on useful items” smiled Lance Shield. “Interesting, could I have a look on them later?” asked Jason. “ I think we can arrange it, maybe even we could sell some, let said for some help” “ Hahahah” Jason laugh “ I think we will reach a compromise” Finally they enter a large chamber in the middle of it stood a large table. Five officers was encircling it, one of them looked up at the newcomers. He had this look, Jason knew it, it was a look of the men who sow war on his own eyes, eyes of veteran. Captain stood on attention and saluted. “Colonel Iron Hoof Sir, Captain Lance Shield reporting from reconnaissance mission.” Old stallion took off his glasses and walked away from the table to face them. “ Twily! I am so glad to see you in one piece!” Twilight widened her eyes seeing an old stallion. “Uncle Hoof! I thought you died!” Twilight jump embracing her uncle. “ I… I thought they… you. I know about Ponyville… reports were saying that no mere escaped. I love you…” it was some view, old stallion was crying, tears there were flowing from his eyes contrast with his military attitude. “ I am fine, I am really fine, thanks to Jason here” she said pointing at Jason. He put his niece down and faced Jason. His face changed into professional one. “ My name is Colonel Iron Hoof, Second Battalion, First Infantry Division, Third Equestrian Army. Who should I thanks for returning my niece to me?” “ Marshal Jason Lasinski, United Bronies Army. I am glad I was able to help” “United Bronies Army? I never heard of it. Are you from other side of Infinity Ocean?” “ I think that we should talk about it in private.” Said Jason. Colonel opened his mouth to say something, but Twilight grabbed his hand and said. “Do what he asked for” old stallion nod and waved to follow him. Finally they arrived in small cave, which apparently function as his office. Small bed was placed against the wall, next to bed Jason saw a chest and cabinet. Most of room was occupied by another table with a lot of maps, and some schematics. “Ok we should be alone now. What is so important that you needed to speak only with me?” he asked clearly annoyed. “ This guy is changing mood quicker than women in period” Jason thought irritated by old stallion attitude. He looked at Iron Hoof, thinking… and then Jason smirked. “ So you are trying to check me hmm” he thought “With all due respect, but I will not tolerate to speaking to me in this tone Colonel. I am supreme commander of United Bronies Army, and you Sir will address me as such!” Old Stallion smiled and nod clearly satisfied. He tangled his hands behind his back. Girls were truly terrified by sudden outburst. “Stop both of you, don’t you think we have greater problems than you too arguing” yelled Twilight. Both officers looked at each other, this was a game, they wanted to check if any side is mentally stronger than other, it could make who will be leading. This was sometime a way to determinate a chain of command when to commanders with two foreign armies, with the same rank were on battlefield. This was no longer used on earth, but it looked like here it was still a case, and Jason knew this game well enough to not fold. “Ok, so I think I should start from beginning, that will be a long night” Jason said to Colonel.

How all startedAccording to Multiverse theory, every different action causes creation of new universe. There is so many of them as many choices can be made in history, by whole nations or single man. This story takes place in one of those universes. Where choices of few changed world forever. This is story about men and women who were able to sacrifice so much for strangers. This story is about tyranny and oppression, but also about hope and liberation. Because when you’re a shine example amongst the others, in the time of your fall, those who where enlightened be you, will come with help. FALL OF EQUESTRIA – FOREIGN INTERVENTION “Peace is more than the absence of war. Peace is accord. Harmony.” ~Laini Taylor, Daughter of Smoke & Bone~ I stood on large podium, below me three thousand men stood in perfect columns. “Soldiers! My brothers and sisters, we gathered here today in the annual maneuvers. Look at you, four years ago, we where only a group of friends, today we are a brave soldiers. We swore to protect those who may appear in our lands. Those who became our idols, heroes and role models. We will train hard and we will show whole world that we still are here, still on guard. It is duty and honor. Good luck, Dismissed!” – I end his speech. Watching as my men walk away, I zone out for the moment. What a strange four years there was. Firstly, information of invention of interdimensional travel then hundreds theories that every fiction ever made is somewhere true in the multiverse. Most people passed on the agenda very quickly. But not all of them, this invention changed destiny of one group – Bronies. After that events moved rapidly, two months after discovery great convention took place in Memphis, bronies came to City from all over the world. There was a delegations from every country. They wanted to discuss further steps in relation to recent events, as a result a “Treaty of Mississippi” was sigh up. In power of this treaty, bronies become a full power organization with their own political leadership and arm forces. United Bronies Association, was a name of new organization. It was lead by United Bronies Council composed of six representatives, one for each continent. They were elected by full democratic elections host every two years. Firstly, United Bronies Army or UBA for short, had only two hundreds soldiers, mostly veterans from different countries, but with time we become strong enough to face most of nations in the world. Actually UBA has half million soldiers ready to battle and one hounded thousand in reserve. Most of equipment is storage in large privet islands in Pacific and Atlantic, all of them belong to United Bronies Association. The Army that never fight, the army of those who do nothing, that is how we are called in the world. We never took a part in operation, although we were asked many times, in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and many more. We always refused, but we trained every year, to be ready, for something that even we had no idea what that may be. Four years ago I was only a simple brony from middle Europe. Now I am European councilor for UBC and supreme commander of UBA. Marshal Jason Lisinski, it’s sounds good. “Jason I have rapport for you from first flotilla” the voice of my good friend Marcus returned me to the world of leaving. “Thank you Marcus” I said taking files from him. I looked what was in the files. Mostly informations about level of supplies in each ship, readiness of the crews or planed exercises, only two informations was more important installation of new main arrangement of U.B.S Celestial Wrath and replacement of catapult ropes in U.B.S Laughter. I closed the files and walked into a building behind me. Inside work was on full swing, dozens of men and women walked around completing their tasks. Organized chaos, Discord would be proud. One more training, one more simulation, of counter offensive in the case of TCB threat. They trained every possible scenario from changlings infiltration to Discord chaos war. They consider Equestria as an ally or foe. “How are we going?” I asked “ Everyting is going according to the plan. Sir! Our triple A keeping pegasi at bay when air force eliminating their unicorns.” Answered one of officers in the desk in front of me. Of course there was no pegasi or unicorns, all of this was only a simulation. The dimensional travel was invented four years ago, and we are still waiting for first contact with Equestria. Rest of the day past swiftly, with that first day of training was over, also I decided to visit the troops tomorrow. Alarm rang at 0700, after quick morning toilet I put my uniform on and informed the driver to prepare a hamvee. After few minutes outside I was wet from my own sweat. Uniform glued to the body, making this even harder to withstand. Damn Pacific island, air humidity more that 70% and 30 degrees in Celsius scale. In addition, I carried a few tenth of pounds of equipment, I wanted to be “closer to my soldiers” so instead my parade uniform I had field one, I had SCAR assault rifle in L version. Eight additional magazines to it, three HE grenades one flash and one smoke. I was prepared for a imaginary war. We were traveling a narrow road in the dense jungle. Than part of the road collapsed , my driver lost control for a moment, that was enough for hit nearby tree. It made me dizzy for the moment, when I took back full control of my senses I looked at my driver, he was conscious and looked at me now. “Sir! Are you ok?” asked with pure grimace of pain on his face. “ Yes sergeant I am ok, but what about you?” I asked him. “I am fine Sir.” I looked at him with face “don’t give me that bullshit soldier”. “It is my leg sir, I think I broke it” he answered. I reached for the radio. “Harmony Leader to White Nest, White Nest come in!” that was no respond. “ Harmony Leader to White Nest I need medivac over!” still nothing “Here Marshal Jason Lisinski to all UBA personnel on this frequency, please respond! Over!” silence. “Damn it, maybe radio is damage, I will try to use my personal one” I said. But only thing I heard was static. I exit a hamvee to look around, we were in same damn valley, old lava riverbed, on both our side were located vertical slopes reaching several meters up. “It must be it, because this slopes we can’t contact with anybody. Stupid useless piece of crap. It has a ability to communicate between dimensions, but have a problem in goddamn valley!” This communication equipment was one of most advanced in the world. It was designed for U.S Army, to enable them to communicate with the Earth, when they explore a new world. They get it because a one of the men who worked on this project was a brony. Let’s just say that we “borrow” the design. I enter hamvee once more. “Listen we are in goddamn valley, communication don’t work, I have to find higher ground to call for help. You have to hold on. I will bring a help” I said to wounded sergeant. “Go Sir. I will wait for you Sir.” I looked at him once more, place my hand on his shoulder and I nodded. I already walked for half an hour, the terrain was higher than before but still there was still only static in radio. “I had to find higher place” I told to myself. I had all my equipment with me, rifle, grenades, ammo, backpack etc. It hard to imagine but there was even hotter than before. I remembered about proper hydration in situation like this. Then I saw something very strange, bright white light emanated from behind a trees. I never witness such a thing, I was not sure what I should do. Finally I decided to check this light. Slowly I raised by SCARL and walked toward the strange light. When I was getting close to the light, by accident I hooked my foot on a root, I lost my balance and fell forward. When I woke up I was lying on the grass. My SCARL was laying next to me, I grab him and I got up from the ground. But there was something wrong with this picture. Instead a jungle there was a typical deciduous forest. “What the hell happed? Where I am?” I asked myself, then it hit me. After we start ripping of fabric of space, natural portals stated to appeared from time to time. It was nothing unusual now. “ It has to be a answered I am in other dimension.” Then my heart sink, sergeant was waiting for me there. I have to inform someone” I reached for my radio. “Maybe you will work this time.” “Harmony Leader to White Nest, White Nest come in!” still only static. “Fuck! What is with this radio!” I started to look for the portal that brought me here, but without resultants. It had to close behind me. “Damn it” I cursed, hitting nearby tree by me fist. I took a few deep breaths and calmed down. I needed to find a way out of this forest and find out where I am. The trees seemed to be less frequent in the West so I decided to move in this direction. Finally I stood on the edge of the forest, in front of me stretched a beautiful view of a town. I froze, I knew this view. This buildings, there was no other possibility, there was I looking at... Ponyvielle. Then I heard the roar of the engine, I fell to the ground as two biplanes flew over me. One was sure the markings on the wings were not Equestrian. I heard a huge scream from the town, many characters ran out of town heading for the forest. To my surprise they were bipeds, not quadrupedal as I expected. Now I saw that most of them are mares. Suddenly several explosions went through Ponyvielle. I heard more screams comming from the town. At this moment I had no idea what is happening. And then I saw them, they where soldiers but huge antlers on their heads told me that they are certainly not ponies, antro or not. Several tankettes supported the advancing infantry, I watched at horror as few soldiers catch one of running mares, and began rape her as rest of soldiers advanced. Now I was sure what I saw, only one species capable of something like this... caribou. I wanted to help, to attack this bustards, but I realized that he will do nothing. I was only one soldier, and there marched at least a battalion with an armored support. I was forced to wait, watch as another mores are capture and raped in front of my eyes. I hope that even though some of them will reach to the forest. Then I saw them antro mane 6 ran in my direction. “Come on, Come on you can do it girls!” I prayed. But a few meters from the forest, six soldiers struck them on the ground. They started to rip their clothes. “Kurwa, so close” I cursed in my native language. I searched in all the way around, most of the soldiers were busy elsewhere, it was my chance. I knelt and switch safety off. Twilight POV She was terrified, her clothes was rip of, she knew what will happened now, she cried so much, she field him on her, his member start to press on her marehood. She would be violated, in most horrible way, she knew that it is only a beginning, she heard about a “training”. Suddenly there was a strange sound, as if someone was shooting up close, but at the same time from a distance. Suddenly, the weight of a caribou soldier was gone, she looked back. Caribou was dead, part of his head was gone, blood and pieces of brain was everywhere. Suddenly the view make her sick, so she quickly looked away searching for her friends. All were whole and healthy, which could not be said of soldiers. From the corner of my eye she saw movement from the forest. In between the trees came out a creature, it look like a stallion to her, in his hands he held a strange gun. “Do not just stand there, over to the forest.” He shout. “ Who is he?” asked Rainbow. “ I don’t know but I sure he just save us” answered Twilight. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ “For fuck's sake, what are you doing there? This is not the time to debate! We need to run!” I shout. Finally they looked at each other and started to run toward the trees. “Who are you” asked Twilight. “Someone who just save your sorry...” I stopped myself, this term was inappropriate in this situation. “ I just save you, now we must move” I said. “ And why we should trust you? Huu” Asked Rainbow. “ Because, your choices are rather limited miss. You can stay with me and have some kind of protection, or you have always caribou” I did not mean it to be mean, but she pissed me of with Are you a spy? In moment where we have battalion of violators on our tail. “Knock it off Dash, He just save us, a little gratitude. Thank you partner, for what you done” said Applejack. “Ok we will talk latter now we have to get out of here as far as we can. It is not safe here. Let’s go!” I said, and started walking toward the woods, and the girls followed me.
Call for HelpWars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory. ~George S. Patton~ “Of all the worlds had just landed in this one. The worst possible universe ever” I muttered to myself. “Girls, we need to go faster, they're probably already looking for responsible about the six bodies.” I told them. “Why you helping us?” asked Twilight “I was around when everything has started and I couldn’t just look at it” I answered. “Thank you” said Twilight I smiled at her. “No need to thank me, be the way my name is Jason” “I am Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and Rarity.” She smiled back. “It really nice to meet you all but we have to move. They probably already chasing us.” We walked all night, venturing deep into the forest. Adrenaline began to slowly fall and we started to feel the fatigue. Girls barely gone, so I decided that we should rest a little. We found uninhabited cave, just perfect for us. “I think we lost them. We should rest a bit, this cave will serve as a great shelter. Wait here, I have to do something. ” I said to them. A few dozen meters away, I pulled a grenade from my belt and fishing line from my backpack. “What are you doing?” asked someone behind me, startled I quickly turned wielding knife. Behind me stood Twilight. I put the knife down. “I am preparing few traps, to be sure that no one is still looking for us.” I tied a grenade to a tree, and stretched fishing line between two trees. “ If someone is going to go this way, he will stumbles on the fishing line, then fishing line will pull the pin from a grenade. Explosion will warn us.” I said to her. “Now go to sleep, rest. I will prepare few more, and then I will join you all.” It took me a while to prepare two more traps, or rather find good spots for them. When everything was ready, I went back to the girls. “Everything is ready” I said. I sat near the girls dead silence fell no one knew how to start the conversation. Finally Twilight began. “ Ones more thank you, for what you done. If you do not act, it would be ... I prefer not to think about that” “ She is right there partner, if not you, we would meet fate worse than death” said Applejack. “Yep you were super duper-extraliski” Pinkie sang “Extraliski?” I asked confused. “It is Pinkie is being Pinkie, don’t think about it too much” said Rainbow. “Yeah she was probably right, after all we are talking about Pinkie” I thought. “If you do not mind, I'd like to ask what are we gonna do now.” Asked Fluttershy. “I saw the mountain range, we should go there, it is very difficult to find someone in the mountainous terrain, especially if we can find a network of caves.” I said. “You know a lot about these things, are you a soldier?” asked Twilight. “Yes I am, Marshal Jason Lisinski at your services.” I said bowing my head. Girls eyes widened in shock. “You're kidding right. no marshal would March in the war-torn country, without a reason” said Rainbow. The girls looked at me warily. I did not blame them, they were in a situation where it is not easy to trust anybody. I had to tell at least part of the truth, I had to calm them down somehow. “Ok listen, I know that this may seem strange to you, but I got here by accident.” “Yeah it is hard to believe” Rainbow said sarcastically. “Ehhh just let me finish. How I told you I am Marshal Jason Lasinski, I am also supreme commander of United Brony Army. You see, four years ago , my species discover trans-dimensional travel. Since then, natural portals began to appear in our world, normally they were quickly found and closed, but sometimes someone did fell into one of them. I fell into one of them, and that’s how I ended here” “Wait a moment so you are a alien?” asked Twilight, completely confused. “In some sense, yes I am.” I answered. “Could you… you know… help us somehow? I am just so scared.” Said Fluttershy, her voice was collapsing because of crying. “I would very like to Fluttershy, but I don’t have the means to communicate with my world. I have radio but it doesn’t work.” I said pulling the radio out of belt and showing her. “Can I see it, I may be able to fix it” asked Twilight. “Do you know how to fix interdimensional radio?” I asked surprised. “No but this radio is not broken” she said, holding it in her hands. I was I was really surprised, What did she mean that it wasn’t damaged. “Equestria magic is blocking signal, but if I cast a proper spell it should work.” Her horn and radio began to glow. “Done, try now.” She said with smile. I was not sure what actually happened, it was so fast, I hesitantly took the radio into my hand. “Harmony leader to white nest, come in” only answer was static. “Harmony leader to white nest, do you copy? Over!” still nothing. “Harmony leader to white nest, Marcus god dammed answer me!” I was so frustrated, for a moment I hope someone will answer. I was so angry that I almost have thrown the radio on the wall of the cave. I was about to do it when… “Harmony leader here white nest, we read you loud and clear!” answered radio. “It is good to hear you Sir, we started to worry, we found sergeant Szulc, and he told us that you went for help Sir, and never returned.” “I am fine I felt into a natural inter-dimensional portal. I am in Equestria now.” I said. “Sir, You are in Equestria! General Davis is here, and want to speak with you. Please wait a moment Sir.” “Jason is it you?” asked well know voice. “It is me Marcus.” I answered. “Lieutenant here, almost pissed as he heard that you are in Equestria.” his laughter was heard throughout the cave. “Marcus, listen, I have a problem, it is bad here.” I said. “What? Are you landed in Fallout:Equestria?” he asked with concern in his voice. “Worse, check G-015 file.” I answered. For a minute felt complete silence. “Are you sure of that. That you are in FOE?” In his voice I could feel growing anger. “You know file G-015?” I asked. “Yeah I browsed sections G few days ago. Listen I just transfer this information to the counsel. They have meeting right now. Do you want…” “Patch me thru.” I said. There was several sounds from radio and another voice said. “Jason, good to hear you, we already know where are you. How you holding up?” “Paula how you think I am holding up? I need help, baa Equestria need a help. You are a women so I don’t have to that what is doing here is bad as hell.” I said. “We realize that the situation is bad but I do not think we need to send army.”This statement stunned me. “What the fuck? What the fuck have you said John!” I was beyond angry I was downright pissed. “Calm down, do you even realize that we are talking about 600 000 Bronies that will be sent to war. Do you know the cost of such war?” said John. I felt that my blood boils. “Tell me one think John WHY UBA was created, WHY counsel was created, WHY the FUCK we gather in Memphis four years ago! Answer me WHY!” he was lucky I was in another dimension otherwise I would kill the bustard by my own hands. “I will answered you, BECAUSE there was two reason that UBA was created, one if Equestria was in danger and was friendly to defend it or if Equestria was hostile to defend Earth. Next to me are Mane 6, tell it them right INTO the FACE, that you are a coward! That it will be no help! That they become a fucking sex toys, and you will watch it and do nothing! What you want? Express concern about the situation? To say that Bronies support the territorial integrity of Equestria and gender equality. And that’s it! You become a fucking politician, a lot of talking, little working.” I threw at him my frustration. “And you are a warmonger!” he shout back. “No I am not you fucking idiot, I know that there is a time when conversation will do nothing. There is the time where you need to put situation on a knife edge. They are the beings who only understand power politics. Because there are times when it is the end of diplomacy and comes the beginning of the intervention. We are called to such a situation. That is why we were created. Time to fulfill our duty! As a Chancellor on behalf of the Europe I give under the vote act of declaring war on the kingdom of Caribou.” “ You know John, but Jason is right, this is why we were created after all. As a Chancellor on behalf of the South America I support this declaration.” Said Paula. “Yes this is right thing to do. As a Chancellor on behalf of the Africa. I support this declaration.” Said another voice. “John I understand your concern but, this is Equestria we talking about. As a Chancellor on behalf of the Asia. I support this declaration” “I am with Jason in this one. We not always agreed but this time he is right. As a Chancellor on behalf of the Australia and Oceania. I support this declaration.” There was silence Jason could not know but rest of chancellors constantly looked at John. “Ehh so be it. But there will be a lot of body bags. As a Chancellor on behalf of the North America. I support this declaration.” “So decided, as of today the United Bronies Association is in the state war with the kingdom of Caribou. We are ordering full mobilization of United Bronies Army and call to arms all reservists. This day will be marked in history, today Bronies go to war. This meeting is considered as completed. Good luck Jason.” Said Paula. “Jason I just got a message. Mobilization has already begun. Give us two weeks and we will be there. Bastards will get what they deserve. Hold on and good luck. Davis over and out.” Localization unknown… Somewhere on the Pacific Ocean… UBA HQ... Two guards stood by the huge armored door. Markus went to the door and ordered. “Open the door!” The guards turned and put two keys in the holes and twisted at the same time. The door hissed and opened. Markus went inside, huge metal cabinets occupied most of the room. On each of them was marked with single letter, from A to Z. Markus went to the cabinet with the letter G, and then he opened it and then pulled out a file with a number 015. On the cover were two red subtitles. “TOP SECRET” and “EYES ONLY” When he opened the file he saw a headline proclaiming… FALL OF EQESTRIA SCENARIO OPERATION EPONA Author's Note Please if you see any typos, let me know. Thank you.
MobilizationChapter 3 The man sat down on a chair, in front of him was reporter with cameraman. “It is honor to meet you Colonel Kochman” said reporter “Likewise” “Sir, as you now we are here to asked some questions about events at led to Caribou war.” “I am aware of it.” “So, please tell me how all this started” Reporter nod his head in the direction of the cameraman, small red light lit up on camera, showing that recording began. Paul was a twenty years old, he lived in Hamburg, the city was full of Bronies belonging to the UBA, they moved to the city or in its vicinity, since the local airport was one of the main places where in the case of emergency UBA soldiers would be transported to bases in the Atlantic. They caused a huge growth of the city itself, and factories of all kinds have grown like mushrooms after the rain. Paul also was a soldier, he served in the 23 UBA Airborne Division. It was just another normal day, there was no signs of the coming storm. Paul just came home, it was already after six p.m. and sky was beginning to get dark. When he opened the door, his fiancée greeted him on the spot. “Hi, my Liebe. How was your day at work.” she kissed him. „Tiring.” he answered. Suddenly someone knock at the door. - I wonder who it could be? – Paul said. When he opened the door, before him stood a UBA courier. - Sergeant Kochman? – asked a courier. - Yes I am – he was surprised with what he knew there was no ordered exercises in the near future. - It's for you, Sir. – he gave him a envelope, then saluted and left. Paul opened a envelope, his eyes widened when he read what was inside. Serial EVN number 11544 Hamburg day. 2021.27.11 Ordinance of mobilization Based on article 65 of Treaty of Mississippi signed May 4, 2017 of the creation of United Bronies Armed Forces. Mr/Miss/Mrs. SEARGEAT PAUL KOCHMAN Born: August 3, 2003 Having a military ID number DEU115470 Is obliged to attend to active military service in 23 Airborne Division *meeting place HAMBURG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT PRIVET SECTOR 2025.29.11 0700 hour . . . Somewhere in Atlantic Jackson was inside crew compartment of amphibious assault vessel. It was the fifth practice landing on the beaches, since the declaration of war. Every day more and more soldiers , were coming on the islands. They were part of the First UB Marine Division, Jackson knew that they will be the first who hit the beaches. The vehicle is shaking, that means they enter a beach. Amphibian finally stopped, the rear door opened, and they ran to the beach. They formed a line of infantry supported by amphibians. - Move, move, move! - shouted the captain of Jackson’s company. It was one of the many of exercises they had after declaration of war. Assaulting the beach, capturing key points in enemy costal defenses, urban fight. Most focus was put on this aspects. UBA never had much of ground forces. UBA military doctrine was about air and naval control, with high mobile ground forces, that were able to do quick strikes, make much damage to enemy forces and withdraw before main forces arrive. Rear admiral Yamamura stood in the bridge of U.B.S Celestial Wrath watching the pride of United Bronies Army it’s Navy. In harbor next to him ship were two of the seven aircraft carriers U.B.S Laughter and U.B.S Loyalty. Going further he saw five frigates U.B.S Ponyvielle, U.B.S Manehattan, U.B.S Batlimare, U.B.S Hoofington and U.B.S Canterlot, next to them were destroyers and cruisers, U.B.S Snowdrop and U.B.S Nyx naming a few. In this moment one of submarines was entering a harbor. “Probably Faust class” he thought. Thousands people have been working by past four days, loading supplies to the ships, making sure that fleet will have everything what is needed when shit will hit a fan. In the corner of the harbor, he saw at least ten containers ship, they belonged to the one of shipping companies controlled by counsel. In time of peace those ship were second source of income for association, just behind donations, but they were build for war too. Marshal have make sure of that each container ship could be easy convert to troop transport ship. All what was needed was to install some prefabricated walls. And that was exactly what was happening right now. “Red light! Stand up!” shouted Paul. All men immediately stood up. “Secure your line!” all men hooked the rope on the tube. “Jumping out of airplane is safest thing of men can do, if he fallows a proper procedure. When red light goes green you jump, fallow the men in front of you, don’t stop don’t think” Red light changed to green. “Go, go, go!” shouted Paul, two rows of soldiers starting to jumped out of the rear hatch, to immediately land on grass. Model of C-130 interior was one of many training places in 23rd Airborne training facility. They trained over and over again to make sure that nothing will go wrong, when the time come. Soldiers gather near a model in two rows. Paul address them. “Remember static line will deploy your chute automatically, chute is design to drop you straight down. Everyone of you will know landmarks of you DZ, so look for them and land. Leave DZ as soon as you hit the ground! Don’t stay in open field more then you needed, move towards a trees.” Laud sound pierced the air as two large C-130 flow just above them, each day more and more soldiers have been arriving in 23rd base. Division was now in 70% of its strength, yesterday the 5th transport wing arrived at base with its C-130s and now airfield was crowded with planes. “Ok boys, go to mess and get something, and remember today at 2000 hour we have schedule a night jumping, rally in the airfield at 1830 hour. Got it!” said Paul. “Sir, yes, Sir!”soldiers answered. “You are dismiss.” Paul watched as his squad moved towards a mess, they were young most of them in their 19s. They were all very enthusiastic, not that he was much older or less excited, just he had this feeling that many of them will not return home. He walked towards an airfield, he always liked watching airplanes as they land and took off. It was… relaxing, many would argue, ‘cause noise of those C-130s was deafening but he had this ability to completely turn off some off this senses and simply watch and not register any sound at all. Airfield was located in small valley between two embankments. Small wooden fence was build at top of earthwork, Paul leaned on fence and watched as another Hercules land on airfield. He saw as on another side of runway, technicians were working around planes. He was wondering was marshal was doing behind enemy lines. Equestria four days ago. Jason woke up when thundering sound rocked though forest, one of traps was activated. He quickly grab his weapon and shake Twilight. “ Wake up, we have to hurry!” he said. “What happened?” asked Twilight in sleepy voice. “ They found us, we have to go, wake up the rest. We have to go!” Twilight immediately snapped and started waking up the rest of her friends. It took a minute to bring girls to “usable” condition. “Ok follow me and stay quiet” said Jason. They exit a cave and moved towards south, and then second explosion shook a forest. “Damn it, they are closer than I thought. We have to move faster” cursed Jason. They almost run, trying to lose their pursuers. Then Jason heard shouting, they were definitely orders. He look behind him and sow them, Caribou soldiers. One of them raised his weapon… “Take cover!” he shouted and tackled Twilight to the ground, exactly at the moment when the bullet hit tree bark in place when Twilight head was a second ago. “Girls get down and stay behind a trees.” He shouted and shoot back at Caribou solder, he saw how soldier body shook violently and fell to the ground. He sow a large rock and skipped there, using it as a cover. When he killed this solder rest of them stopped knowing that their prey can bite back. There was at least ten of them. “Ten to one… yeah seems legit” he said to himself. One of Caribou leaned out from behind a tree to earn bullet into his head. Then firefight started, two soldiers tried to skipped behind trees for better position only to be killed by Jason. But when he focus on one side next two Caribou used this opportunity to move and know they were suppressing him with their fire. “Fuck!” he cursed. Then he saw that from his back another squad is encircling them. He shoot at newcomers killing two of them. He saw another one, he was already aiming at Jason, Jason raised his SCARL and… click. This was it, there was no way he would pull out his sidearm in time, and then Caribou head blew up into pieces. From nowhere few dozens of ponies run into battle attacking Caribou from behind. Jason use this and change his magazine. Returning fire to enemy soldiers. And there it was, the battle was over. “Are we alive?” asked Rarity. “Yeah I think we are” answered Jason. “But I have no idea what just happened” One of ponies approached them, he was wearing and used uniform, there were holes in it, probably from branches in the forest, dust and mud was covering it. He held some weapon, it has locked like some rifle from second war world. Jason stood up asked “ Whom should I thank for saving life?” “ Captain Lance Shield, Equestrian resistance” he answered. Author's Note Uff finally done, it took a while, but there it is.
ResistanceChapter 4 Caribou soldiers were chasing them. Twilight ran as fast as she could, but they were getting closer and closer. Something was very wrong, she ran and ran but it looked like she wasn’t moving at all. Suddenly the ground underneath her disappeared and what was left was black oblivion, she fell with scream. “Aaaaaaaa…”Twilight woke up with heavily breathing. She was in large room in her apartment. With a growl she got out of bed and went out onto the balcony. Large gardens surround her home, above trees she saw lights of large skyscrapers creating a heart of Aurora City. Memories, she had this nightmares from the end of war. She saw as a patrol passed beneath her. She knew that now at least four agents were observing her, so much change since the end of the Caribou war, she was a different mare now, but memories of those days were still with her. Forest was really dense, but resistance fighters looked like they knew exactly where to go. After a firefight and quick introduction they moved deep into the forest. Jason and Lance Shield have been walking arm to arm while six mares follow right after them. The sun’s rays shined through treetops, lighting their path. “…we've operate in this forest for a month now. When Caribou shattered our third army during battle of Rainbow falls what was left of us tried to contact with Royal Canterlot Army, before we arrived here RCA was already lost. So we decide to stay here and create resistance cell…” said Lance Shield. He and Jason have been talking since they left a battlefield. “So, how you were able to find us, in this bloody forest?” asked Jason. “Believe me or not, but this was more about luck than knowledge. We spotted one of the patrols that this fuckers send into forest and decide to follow it. It looked like we had more luck that we hoped for. Rescue bearers of Harmony and foreign dignitary” smiled Captain. “And once again thank you for saving our sorry asses” answered Jason. “Speaking of which, Can you tell me more about this UBA? I am really curios about it.” They were talking for the whole trip. But Twilight was sure that something was off about Jason. He still had this smile of his but the way he was talking or rather the words he spoke, they were not entirely true, like he was hiding something. She knew that feeling, she had this feeling every time when princess Celestia had a political meeting. “… so as you can see UBA is international association, which in cooperation with others who value freedom and friendship. UBA strictly opposed organizations or governments whose violate rights of sapient species or pursue totalitarian politics.” “Is there any possibility that you can help us? Food, weapons, ammunition, believe me, we can pay for them.” Asked Lance Shield. “It’s not my call to make. Council have to assemble and make decision like this, but in the moment I will return to my people, I will pursue this idea.” Twilight was in shock, she heard herself when he spoke with rest of the council and declared the war on Caribou. Why he didn’t said it to the Captain? Why he changed his attitude after meeting of them? It was strange, he apparently didn’t want Captain to know but why? Twilight decide to asked him later when they will be alone. “ I completely understand” he stopped, Twilight saw that they stood in front of small cave. Entrance was guarded by two soldiers. “Well here we are, our home” “Nice place, very good hidden” said Jason. “ Fortunately few of us grown in nearby village, they know this place like their own pocket, but for outsider this place is nearly impossible to spotted.” They enter the cave, strangely enough it looked like whole cave system was illuminated. Wires on the ceiling were pretty everywhere, bundled and fixed to the stone wall. “You have a power. How?” asked Jason. “Magical generators, not very effective but they doing the job” “Magical generators? How are they working? Jason was truly interested in this development. However before Lance Shield was able to answered Twilight entered her lecture mode and said: “ They operate on magical crystals, which can be mined only in frozen north. Each crystal working as battery, storing energy produce any other way. Not like the name suggest this doesn’t need to be magical energy, you can simply throw them to fireplace and wait. Of course using unicorn magic is quickest way and most efficient. They are very expensive to, I never heard that anypony had some in their home. But military bought many of them.” “Yes this true, army always had eye on useful items” smiled Lance Shield. “Interesting, could I have a look on them later?” asked Jason. “ I think we can arrange it, maybe even we could sell some, let said for some help” “ Hahahah” Jason laugh “ I think we will reach a compromise” Finally they enter a large chamber in the middle of it stood a large table. Five officers was encircling it, one of them looked up at the newcomers. He had this look, Jason knew it, it was a look of the men who sow war on his own eyes, eyes of veteran. Captain stood on attention and saluted. “Colonel Iron Hoof Sir, Captain Lance Shield reporting from reconnaissance mission.” Old stallion took off his glasses and walked away from the table to face them. “ Twily! I am so glad to see you in one piece!” Twilight widened her eyes seeing an old stallion. “Uncle Hoof! I thought you died!” Twilight jump embracing her uncle. “ I… I thought they… you. I know about Ponyville… reports were saying that no mere escaped. I love you…” it was some view, old stallion was crying, tears there were flowing from his eyes contrast with his military attitude. “ I am fine, I am really fine, thanks to Jason here” she said pointing at Jason. He put his niece down and faced Jason. His face changed into professional one. “ My name is Colonel Iron Hoof, Second Battalion, First Infantry Division, Third Equestrian Army. Who should I thanks for returning my niece to me?” “ Marshal Jason Lasinski, United Bronies Army. I am glad I was able to help” “United Bronies Army? I never heard of it. Are you from other side of Infinity Ocean?” “ I think that we should talk about it in private.” Said Jason. Colonel opened his mouth to say something, but Twilight grabbed his hand and said. “Do what he asked for” old stallion nod and waved to follow him. Finally they arrived in small cave, which apparently function as his office. Small bed was placed against the wall, next to bed Jason saw a chest and cabinet. Most of room was occupied by another table with a lot of maps, and some schematics. “Ok we should be alone now. What is so important that you needed to speak only with me?” he asked clearly annoyed. “ This guy is changing mood quicker than women in period” Jason thought irritated by old stallion attitude. He looked at Iron Hoof, thinking… and then Jason smirked. “ So you are trying to check me hmm” he thought “With all due respect, but I will not tolerate to speaking to me in this tone Colonel. I am supreme commander of United Bronies Army, and you Sir will address me as such!” Old Stallion smiled and nod clearly satisfied. He tangled his hands behind his back. Girls were truly terrified by sudden outburst. “Stop both of you, don’t you think we have greater problems than you too arguing” yelled Twilight. Both officers looked at each other, this was a game, they wanted to check if any side is mentally stronger than other, it could make who will be leading. This was sometime a way to determinate a chain of command when to commanders with two foreign armies, with the same rank were on battlefield. This was no longer used on earth, but it looked like here it was still a case, and Jason knew this game well enough to not fold. “Ok, so I think I should start from beginning, that will be a long night” Jason said to Colonel.
