Spartan and Pony

John watched as the unicorns readied the portal, that would send them to the year of 2016. The ponies had made an error, and the so called "Element of Harmony" seemed to be traveling through the years. This would make tracking them down harder, not to mention John had no idea what he was looking for.

"Tell me, what do these things look like?" He asks as he rests his Battle Rifle on his shoulder. Going back to such ancient times would probably mean he would run out of ammo, so he would have to pick up weapons from that era in order to stay alive. He had done research on the weapons of that time, and if he had to choose, he would probably choose something American. Those guns were known for accuracy and range, which were his strong suits.

"They're necklaces with gems in them, the one we're going after has a ruby shaped like a lightning bolt." The purple one said. John had memorized their names, but wasn't willing to call them by name yet. They would have to earn his trust first. It seemed ridiculous waiting for the trust of what looked like harmless creatures, but John knew all to well that the most harmless looking things were deadly. Grunts in case point, the strange aliens did look harmless, but would stop at nothing to fill your guts with plasma.

"Necklaces huh? Not gonna be easy to find one necklace in a world full of em'." Cortana says. John stares forward as the portal grows steadily larger, emanating a strange blue light.

"That's what makes it interesting." John says as the portal makes a whirring noise. It shoots open, giving a brilliant white shine, while it gives off a strange angelic noise. If there was one thing he knew about 2016 though, it's that it was anything but peaceful. World War III was going on then, so he would probably find himself in one of the numerous battles that made up the war.

"Princess, are you sure we can trust this thing?" A stallion beside him asked. It had a purple helmet on, along with matching armor. His mane, or at least what John could see of it, was a mix of various shades of blue. His eyes were blue, and his flank was covered by his armor. John shook his head and turned back to the portal.

"We don't have much of a choice right now Shining Armor. If he's telling the truth, his knowledge on fighting could save the girls' lives." He heard the Princess say. The purple unicorn walked over to "Armor" guy, and said goodbye. He warned her to be careful, and she promised that she would. Must have been siblings. He looked away, remembering back to his own parting with his family, only to never see him again.

"Let's go." He said calmly, trying to get his mind off of Six. He brought his Battle Rifle to his front, and marched into the portal. He heard a whistling as he felt his body being compressed, and vanished into a puff of white light.

Planet Earth, Prague... October 11th, 2016...

"It's almost time Yuri. The meeting'll be on the second floor." Soap said. Yuri nodded as Soap brought his RSASS around to his front, aiming it towards the building. Yuri quickly followed suit, placing the magazine into his weapon and crouching down. He rests the rifle against the stone that was cut away from the building, steadying it.

"This is the day we take him down..." Yuri thinks to himself as he places his eye to the scope. Through his scope, he can see Makarov's convoy begin to arrive, with one armored truck, two armored limos, and one more armored truck. The glass was no doubt bullet proof, so they would have to wait for a better shot.

"Makarov's convoy just showed up." Price said through his radio. Yuri adjusted his scope, trying to zoom in on the first vehicle. The scope clicked slightly as it moved forward, towards the vehicle. The first jeep contained nothing but a driver and one armed gunman. The same was true was the second, except this one had windows that were impossible to see through. The convoy comes to a stop, and Yuri checks the first limo.

"Yuri, third vehicle." Soap says with a whisper. Yuri nods and adjusts his sights to the limo directly behind the one he first checked. Sure enough, his old friend was right there. The man who had cost the lives of so many innocents in Zakhaev International Airport. The man he thought would make Russia a better place, who he now knew was a heartless madman. His finger twitched as his mind and soul begged him to pull the trigger, but he knew that the glass was probably bullet proof. This would just give them away. Makarov adjusted his head, and appeared to be looking right at the two men, making Yuri flinch.

"I don't like how he's just looking at us..." He says nervously. Looking over, he sees Soap shake his head and sigh.

"Neither do I mate. Gives me the creeps." Soap says. Yuri shakes his head as Price tells them to sit tight. The convoy pulls into a garage, and Yuri adjusts his sights to a pigeon on a power line. Price tells Kamarov to move, but the radio is silent. Yuri looks up for a moment, somewhat concerned. He had only met Kamarov a few weeks ago, but he didn't seem like the person to ignore someone. Something had to be up. Was it possible that Makarov knew?

"Probably forgot to switch it on..." He hears Soap mutter under his breath. Yuri considers this, and decides that this probably is the case. Shaking his head, he places his eye back to the scope, watching two guards patrol a balcony on the second floor. A curtain was behind the guards, as though the things behind them were confidential.

"Yuri find Price on your scope. He's at the top of the hotel." Soap says as he nudges his shoulder. Yuri adjusts his scope, and looks around for a while, trying to find Price. As though he knew he couldn't find him, Price uses something to create a flare that Yuri is able to see, and Yuri zooms in on him.

"I see him. We're ready my friend." He says as he looks over to Soap and nods. Soap nods and confirms to Price they have a visual. Price prepares his gear and slowly begins to rappel down onto the balcony. Suddenly, a bright light appears from below the Captain, causing him to cover his eyes.

"What in the bloody heck is that?" Soap shouts into the radio, speaking for everyone at the moment. Adjusting his scope, Yuri sees what looks like a whirlwind of light, almost like a spiral. The guards on the balcony loosen their holds on their weapons and hold out their arms, blocking the light. Yuri stands, and looks over to Soap, who is also standing.

"What is happening?" Yuri shouts as an audible howling of the wind reaches the tower. Soap shakes his head, trying to find Price amongst the growing light.

"Price! Can you hear us?" Soap shouts desperately as Yuri lifts his arm to block his eyes from the light.

"I'm here! I don't know what's going on, but we need to get the heck out of here! Soap, Yuri, get your ass out of there!"
