Memories (RW)

A faint creaking of a door could be heard as a purple bi-pedaled unicorn was looking through some old books, one labeled "Ancient Myths of Old Equestria". As the unicorn looked over to the front door, a little puffy white bunny hopped on through. "Oh, Angle didn't know you were stopping by, what's the occasion?" She asked the bunny now putting the book she was reading down on her desk. The unicorn watched as the bunny hopped around the library and stopped by a sign which read "Medical, Medicine, an Anatomy". The intelligent unicorn getting the hint asked Angle "What's wrong Angle? Is somepony hurt?" the unicorn getting worried and scared not knowing which.

The bunny then hopped out of the library in a few bounces leading the purple unicorn out of the tree and onto the cobble road. As she saw the bunny leave, got up and with a hurried step followed him. She contemplated the possibilities "Who or what got hurt and what injuries could there be? Another pony? Flutters? Broken bones or missing limbs?" The unicorn still following couldn't keep the variables out of her complicated mind.

-A few hours ago-

"I could fall asleep to these rotors.." Said Ramirez giving a dramatic fake yawn.

"You can fall asleep to a B-17's engine in your ear." Replied Jacob manning the Browning .50 cal. on the right side of the BlackHawk. Taking the spot for the last gunner who was shot through his heart. He shivers slightly at the thought.

"Enough you two, we're almost to the LZ. Now, listen up. Once we land we'll head north along th-" Danes was suddenly cut off as his neck suddenly had a hole in it.

"Shots fired! Danes been hit! Jacob get your fucking sights on him!" Ramirez screamed putting pressure at the hole gushing blood every where from his neck. Jacob starts paning around trying to find the target as a small line of smoke head towards the tail of the helicopter. As if on cue a wave on AK fire erupts from the beginning of the smoke line.

"RPG 4 o' clock!" He screams to the pilots and they start maneuvering. It was too late of a warning and it hits the tail of the Blackhawk taking it with it in an explosion. The Heli shakes violently then start spinning out of control with a jolt forward.

"I'm losing control of her!" Yelled the pilot as the cockpit windshield cracked and broke.

-Present-

Jacob wakes up opening his eyes but instantly closes them from the wave of pain that washes over his body. "This means, one, I'm dead at the bottom of the cliff. Two, that the yellow body and pink haired girl was most likely real. Three...the team..is..dead." With depression and pain in his heart he slowly opens his eyes to see that yellow lady sitting next to him looking into his eyes.

"H-hello..? Who are you?" he asks the yellow human thing.

"Oh you're a-awake, my n-name is...Fluttershy" You can't hear the rest that she mumbles softly.

"I'm sorry, but what was your name again..?" He notices she's only looking at him in glances.

"I'm...F-flutter...s-shy.." she softly says.

"Fluttershy..? Alright...well can you tell me where I am?" Looking at what shes wearing and the way shes talking, she doesn't seem to be from Afghanistan.

"Y-you're in the Everfree forest, n-near P-ponyville" The girl stutters out. Jacob goes through his memory of the layout of the mountain, there wasn't a town called Ponyville, there wasn't even a town within 8 clicks of the LZ.

"Where the hell am I..." Jacob thought to himself thinking of possibilities but none could come to mind. "Well thank you uh, Fluttershy, but I must be going now." He says as he tries to get to his feet only resulting him falling on his ass and having pain shoot up his body.

"Oh my, you should take it easy..uh..w-what's your name..? I-if you don't mind.." Fluttershy asks looking down shyly twirling her hair in her index finger.

He told her his name "Cpl. Jacob Sweeney of the United States Army." He looked behind Fluttershy seeing a purple lady with the same looking feet-hoof thing and two different shades of purple for hair, walking towards him trough the forest. He could easily tell she was a civilian from what she's wearing, a white long sleeve T-shirt with a dark purple vest and a pair of what looked like regular Denim jeans. Fluttershy seeing that Jacob was not looking at her but past her, turns around to see what he's looking at.

"Oh, Hello Twilight." she says finding out what you are looking at.

-A few minutes ago-

"Somepony must have gotten in a fight with a Timberwolf if were heading into the Everfree.." Twilight thought to her self, still following the white bunny to the edge of the forest. Angle, the only one knowing the way to Flutters along with an unknown injured pony or random animal, bounces into the front bushes of the forest to lead the last leg of the small journey. Twilight being slightly hesitant, follows in after the small bunny into the hazardous Everfree.A couple minutes of walking later she starts getting worried from sounds in the woods "Angle I think we're lost..I don't see anypony anywhere, I think you went in the wrong direction." Thinking she'd get a verbal response from the bunny she knows never speaks, got a white fluffy bunny point to a familiar yellow pegasus next to what looked like a beige earth pony with no tail and a small short mane. "Strange..." Twilight thought as she keep walking to them.

-Present-

"Who's that..?" Jacob asks pointing with his good arm at the purple unicorn getting closer. He hoped they weren't hostile. "They would have killed me, hurt me, or start dragging me away if they were actually hostile." He thinks to himself.

"Oh, Jacob that would be one of my friends, her name is Twilight. Let me go get her and fill her in on..the situation." Fluttershy gets up and walks over to her friend leaving him to wonder what they're talking about exactly. Jacob knows what that pause meant, the cuts, bruises, most of all, the bullet wounds. He starts to think about the way the two girls, at least he thinks they're girls.

"They at least looked the part." He said under his breath. From their hoof-feet to their wings and horns to their odd color pallet. "How are they like that? Are they in costumes or dyes? They seem like they have fur on them so how could they be real?" He battled his mind against it's self until the two creature girls walked backed to him.

"So you're the creature that's been injured? Let's get you to a hospital then, you don't seem to be all together." Said the one who was told to be Twilight.

"T-then could get on with carrying me already?" Jacob stated feeling his body go slightly numb and cold.

"Carry? Why carry you when we could be there with teleport, you must be delusional from blood loss, we should hurry then." The purple unicorn said as her horn started to take a deep dark space purple aura around it.

"This is no time for jokes, you can't te-" was all he got before a flash of white took him into another blackout.
