Stranded in Equestria
Attack
Previous Chapter"Move it! Move it! Hut! Hut! Hut! Drop and give me twenty push-ups! No wings or horns!" I was constantly barking out orders as the six ponies I was training were getting better and faster at the drills. "Good now time for a twenty mile run! Move it! Move it! Lets go! Lets go! Pick up those hooves! Come on move it! We don't got all day!" It's been nearly three years since I awoken here in Equestria and started training these six ponies, and to be honest they were growing on me. "Okay fillies that's enough for today go home and take a shower then report back to the library! Now move!" As I watched the six of them leave the training grounds I called Twilight back for a quick talk. "Twilight do you know why I pulled you to the side?" I asked trying to figure out how to say what I wanted.
"No."
"Well I pulled you to the side to ask you if you have a boyfriend?" I asked as I slightly blushed.
"What are you asking?" Twilight said a little confused.
"Look Twilight, I don't know how to say this but I'm willing to give you something if you help me with something." I said as I was getting nervous.
"What is it that you want my help with?"
"Look lets get to the library and I'll tell you."
"Okay." Twilight had a confused tone in her voice. When we got back to the library Twilight took a shower and we sat down so I could talk to her.
"Like I was saying back at the training grounds it's been almost three years since I've awoken on this couch, I treated you and your friends terribly, and now that you have all earned my trust, I would like to put you all at more important roles in helping me get home, but I'll need you to do a few things for me." All I wanted for Twilight to do is contact the princess's, tell them that there's somebody that wants to talk to them, and when they get here I'll tell them why Twilight hasn't been as honest or focused for the past three years.
"Okay what is it?"
"I want you to contact the princess's and tell them I want to speak with them."
"Okay that's it?" Twilight asked as she picked up a quill and a piece of paper and started to scribble on the paper. After a while Twilight sent the letter and within a few minutes the princess's were knocking on her door. "Hello princess's." Twilight said as she bowed.
"Greetings Twilight, now you said that there was someone that wanted to talk to us." Celestia said as she looked around the room.
"Yes there is. Red, the princess's are here." Twilight called into the house as the two alicorns entered. After a few minutes I came down to the living room wearing my standard armor protection. A small iron chest plate, iron armored pants, and carrying two pistols, and a long range rifle.
"What? My armor is getting polished." I said as I loaded the rifle and slid it into its holster.
"Well here are the princess's Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. Come in and make yourself comfortable, I'll go get some drinks, and I'll leave you three to talk alone."
"Twilight don't worry about drinks, I brought a cooler of beer with me. And by the way beer is a mans version of wine or what ever alcohol you have here." I said as I reached behind the couch and pulled out a six pack. "Now anyone want one?" I asked as I pulled one out and popped the cap and handed one to each of the princess's. "Here just try one." I said as I handed them the bottles and they took them in their magical grasp, took a sip, and scowled at the taste.
"It tastes terrible." Luna said as she tried to give it back to me.
"No that's not necessary, it's always like that. The first taste is always terrible, but the second is always better." As I spoke Celestia took another sip of hers.
"Wow, he's right Luna. It does get better after the first taste." Celestia said in amazement.
"Okay I'll try it again." As she put the bottle at her lips Twilight came rushing in slightly hurt.
"Red Hunter, there's a problem outside and its coming from the Everfree Forest!" Twilight panted as she reached me. "We are trying to hold them off while everypony gets to safety but they're just too strong, and we need your help!" Twilight spoke as a small explosion rocked the library, sending books flying.
"Okay let me just get my armor and I'll join you." I spoke as I got up and went to the steps to get my armor.
"We can't hold out long enough for you to equip your armor the Harmony Strike Force will give any minute now!" At that time Rainbow flew in and spoke with a certain urge in her voice.
"Twilight, Rarity's shield is starting to fail. The enemy will be able to get past it in one minute we need you out there helping her, now!"
"On my way." Twilight said as she galloped outside and out of sight.
"I'm on my way too." I said as I checked to see if my guns were loaded, and raced outside to where they were trying to hold of the enemy. When I got there the shield was destroyed and the Harmony Strike Force was fighting them head-on. The first thing I did was get on top of a building and pull out my long range rifle. I set the sights and aimed, waiting for the right moment. After a few seconds one of the enemies was in a clear spot, so I aimed over towards him and fired. After the shot rang out the enemy fell to the ground lifeless. After shot ten more enemies I was out of rifle ammunition, so I pulled out my pistols and jumped into the fight firing three shots into one enemy. Within a minute all the enemies were ether running away or laying on the streets dead.
"What the hell are those?!" Celestia screamed as she and Luna came running up to the sight of a dozen dead creatures in the streets of Ponyville.
"Those creatures are called Talkoritesics'. They are very nasty creatures that will win at all costs, they'll betray you in a heartbeat, they hold grudges, they're good for expendable troops, but they are easy to kill. A shot to the leg will slowly kill it." I said as I activated the scanner on my arm and showed the princess's the info on them.
"So they are easy to ward off?" Luna asked with her curiosity peaked.
"Not really. With the right training they can be as tough and strong as a full grown dragon, but if they have just been recruited they're as easy as a fly to hold off but as swift and nimble as a bird." As I spoke a noticed a young Talkoritesics shivering in a corner. "Hold on." I disengaged the scanner and walked over to it.
