The squeaking tires, sounds of the ponies chatting and animals were the only noises in the forest. The 262 proved to be easy to pull with its wheels deployed. Iron will held onto three of the long ropes.

"Iron will is glad you gave him this fine opportunity to help someone in need of assistance." He said with a proud smile.

"I'm glad you were able to have the spare time to help us Iron will. Doing this without you would have been quite the Challenge." Twilight said.

"When we get back we can begin repairs, though we need a metal workers help." Ademar said.

"Ma cousin Braeburn is good with metal, maybe he can help ya." Applejack said.

"Ah make horseshoes and tools AJ, but I could try to figure this out. I need Steel though and a forge to work." He told her

The forest became silent of all animals. Only the ponies could be heard talking and the wheels squeaking.

"Something is wrong, everyone stop!" Ademar yelled.

"Whats wrong?" Twilight said to him, Ademar was looking into the forest, he drew his pistol.

"We are being watched." He saw the familiar yellow eyes i the forest. "Timber Wolves"

"How many? Twilight asked

"Many...we need to get moving." They begin to move faster. Iron will stopped and looked at the closing in Timber Wolves.

"Iron will will distract the wolves. You get to the town." He said while dropping the rope.

"Are you sure!?" Ademar said to him.

"Iron will is not scared of tiny wooden dogs..." The Minotaur charges the Wolves, he hit one in the back causing it to split in half. Another wolf jumps and latches its jaws onto his arm, he grabs it by the tail and smacks it against a tree causing splinters to fly from it. Ademar shoots one of the Wolves in the eye, killing it instantly, he fired upon the others killing some and causing some to flee. Iron will throws the last one by its leg into the forest, they can hear their whimpers and whines while running in terror.

"Your arm." Ademar points to the bleeding teeth marks on Iron will's arm.

"HA. Tis merely a flesh wound, Iron will will be fine little one don't you worry. Come, lets get back to the group and finish this job." He said gladly.

Ademar and Iron will quickly made their way back to the group, they were nearly out of the forest when they caught up. "Your back!" Twilight said happily, she ran over to them both, noticing the wound on Iron will. "Are you going to be okay?!"

"Calm yourself Princess, Iron will is okay." He walks past her and grabs the ropes and pulls, making the 262 move faster along the path.

They exit the forest and over the bridge and into the town, many of the Ponies in town were gawking in awe at the massive metal machine, wondering what or who built it and what it could do. They stop just outside the Castle doors, the ropes were taken off and the other wagon unhooked. The other ponies left leaving only The Apples, Twilight, Iron will, and Ademar.

"Iron will is glad I could help you all in this task. Iron will is now going back to Fluttershy's cabin for tea and Cakes. Princess." He bows polity and waves goodbye to the others.

"Well that was mighty kind of him." Applejack said. "Braeburn will be staying with us until this thing is fully fixed twilight, we will be seeing ya." The Apples made their ways to the apple farm.

"Soooo......when do we fix it!?!" Twilight asked with a happy and exited smile.

"Right now." Ademar says. He noticed the instant excitement on Twilight's face as she ran inside to retrieve her tools and research notes, within a few minutes she returned carrying tools, and note books.

"I'm ready to start." She said excitedly.

"Good, I will begin with the surviving turbine, you can study it while I take it apart."

Ademar walked over to the turbine, he uses the tools twilight gave him to take off the bolts holding it on, Twilight looks through the salvage pile and finds a strange object, it has a pointed end and a tubular frame.

"Ademar whats this?" She asked, waving it around with Magic.

"TWILIGHT!," He shouted, causing her to jump." slowly......put...that...down." She slowly set it on the ground. "That is a R4M anti-Aircraft missile, be glad it didn't go off."

"I'm..I'm sorry I didn't know..." She said sadly.

"Its alright, but please be careful next time." He continued to work on the Engine. Twilight climbed into the cockpit and studied the dials, she would need Ademar to translate some of the words but she wrote them down anyway. She focused her attention on the stick in the center. She fiddled with it and heard a creaking sound behind the plane. On the tail she saw a sheet of metal flapping when she moved it. "Well at least the rudder still works..." He said.

Twilight noticed a button on the Stick, she touched it with her hoof. From the front of the plane she hear several massive booms and something ramming into her castle, the sound made her nearly go deaf. She climbed out of the plane to see Ademar holding his ears, smoke was coming from the four holes in the nose.

"Die Hölle!" Ademar shouted, Twilight smiled nervously, she finally noticed the giant hole in her castles side, leading into the Foyer.

Spike stuck his head out the window, shaking nervously. "What was that?"

After a few hours, and plenty on notes taken, Ademar had fully taken apart the turbine. Having each individual piece laying out on a slab of plywood."Now all we need to do is label the parts Braeburn needs to make" Twilight said.

"Almost all of it, there wasn't really anything left of the other turbine, I can put it back together all I need are the parts to be made." Ademar said. "I was going to clean out the gun barrels, though you seemed to do that for me, And check the fuel."

"Yeah sorry about that Ade." She said rubbing her head. "I will go take this stuff to Braeburn, be back in a Minute." She used her magic to levitate the plywood and metal. She took off into the shy towards the Apple Farm.

"Now Twilight, I know how to work a forge and Steel, but copying these parts is going to take a lot of time for me. I mean, they are well made with machines not by hoof or...well for him its hand. But I don't have the steel to use or molds or even the equipment to make these." Braeburn said.

"Don't you worry, I can get you the steel from Canterlot, I just have to make some calls. You will have them by the end of the day." She said proudly.

"Well...alright, but this may take longer than expected, maybe a few weeks to a month. Once the supplies are here I will get to work right away."

"Thanks Braeburn. I will let Ademar know." She leaves the apple farm flying towards Her castle.

She arrived shortly at her castle to notice Ademar still working on the plane. "Still has a good amount of fuel left in it, though finding ways to fuel it would be difficult in this world."

"Well whats it take?" She asked.

"The 262 has three fuel Tanks. Two 900 litter tanks and a 200 liter tank under the cockpit giving me 2,000 litters of Fuel for a 90 minute fly time. It takes a brown Coal-derived J2, though with the option of using a diesel and oil mix."

"Oh..maybe I can figure out something, you never told me what the sand in your weapons is made of, is it in the plane to?"

"Yes but its not sand, all human firearms use a brass casing or bullet, it is hollow inside for a primer and gunpowder, the powder is made of Sulfur, Charcoal, and Potassium Nitrate. Then the sassing is sealed with a lead or steel bullet."

"Interesting, oh we are going to Canterlot." She told him.

"We are, what for?"

"Braeburn needs supplies to make your parts. He needs steel and molding supplies."

"I suppose I can come along, I may need to draw out measurements for my canopy and see if somepony can make me a new one." He said while walking to the fighter. After a few minutes he removes the canopy instead of taking measurements. "How will we get there?"

"Well I can fly but you cant, we might as well take a train there." She said.

"Alright lets go." He says, holding the broken canopy. He set it on a small wagon and pulls it to the station. When they arrive a Pony helps him load it onto the train as Twilight reserves them seats.

"All aboard!" A pony yells. Twilight and Ademar board the train and watch it leave the station, the benches and seats are soft and make a squeaking noise when he sits on it. A Pony with a food tray walks by.

"Are you Hungry?" Twilight asks him.

"I suppose I could eat something" He said. Twilight asked for a sandwich for her and Ademar, he saw what looked like Lettuce, Tomato, and.....Dandelions. Staring at the sandwich for what seemed like forever he took a bite, realizing it was better than he though he quickly ate the rest of it.

"Like it?"

"Yes its good, though Humans are also meant to eat meat. I suppose you don't know where I can get that?"

"Well, there are merchant stands in Canterlot that sell meat products, Mainly Griffons or Diamond Dogs are the Sellers. They might have something. Or you can ask Fluttershy, she usually has fish stored for her animals, mainly Hairy the Bear."

"I will ask her when we return to Ponyville." Ademar said.

After an hour the train makes a full stop in Canterlot's station, with the help of Twilight Ademar takes the canopy off easily and onto the wagon. As they walk through the busy city Ademar sees some Ponies giving him looks and stares, Ponies with elegant features and clothing leave popular restaurants to continue their other duties. He can see market stalls with Ponies and Non-Ponies by them. He saw Griffons, Diamond Dogs, Minotaurs, and Yaks. He saw a Griffon selling various types of meat and fish.

"Would you like something friend?" The Young Griff asks.

"What do you have?" Ademar asked while scanning the Meats.

"I have rabbit, salmon and cod, beef, chicken and goose eggs, and pork."

"I will take the rabbit, and all of the chicken eggs." Ademar said, the Griffon bags up the meat and slides it over to him.

"That will be fifteen bits sir."

"Bits? I do not know what those are." He looked at the other stalls, he saw a Pony giving a merchant gold, Silver, and Bronze coins. Ademar reaches into his Pocket and pulls out the coins he has. He has seventeen Coins. "Will this be enough?"

The griffon starred at the stack of coins and Paper currency. "Yeah I guess, but Keep the paper and all I need is fifteen coins." Before the griffon can take them Twilight puts fifteen bronze bits on the table.

"Here Ademar, I will pay for it." The griffon put the coins in a Pouch and gave Ademar his money back. "I don't think Fluttershy is going to like hearing you eat rabbit, though I'm sure she will understand."

"Hopefully she does." Ademar said. They passed a Small workshop that made glass and porcelain cups, bowls, and windows. The pony inside notices the Princess and Ademar.

"Ah princess its nice to see you, would you like a new stained glass window, perhaps a Bowl?" The Pony said.

"No, my friend Ademar needed something repaired."

"Ah lets see it." Ademar dragged the canopy towards the Pony.

"The glass shattered on impact, not much was left. Think you could fix it?" The pony looked at the broken canopy.

"Yeah I can fix it no problem. No charge either, I will have it back to ya in a couple of days." He said.

"Thank you." Ademar said, as he and Twilight continued to a foundry. Smoke came from the large factory building, Ademar noticed the large cart full of Fresh Guard armor and others filled with spear heads, arrow heads, small shields, and short swords. "Is it usually this busy?"

"Yes but I've never seen this much weapons and armor, something doesn't seem right." They continue into the building to see Ponies working in extreme heat, moving molten metal to molds, hammering metal into swords and armor. "Um excuse me, are you the owner of this forge?" She asked the large and muscular stallion.

"Yes, my name it Ebonheart, it is an honor to have a Princess in my foundry." He bows. "What can I do for you?"

"I need a shipment of steel and molding materials sent to Ponyville, my friend is trying to repair his plane and we need new parts forged. My friend Braeburn offered to help but he needs metal and molds." She told the burly stallion.

"I will ready a shipment to be transported to ponyville though it wont be until tomorrow, we are trying to finish out rather large work order."

"You mean these weapons?" Ademar said. "I thought this land was peaceful, only having a force large enough for upholding the law, bringing protection, and peace."

"Whats going on?" Twilight asked. She stared into the eyes of the Large pony.

"Princess I honestly do no know, I received the work order a few weeks ago and we have been producing hundreds of Weapons and armor by the hour. Princess Celestia and Luna left for the Griffon Kingdom followed by the Princess of Love. My brother in the Chrystal Empire says
they are doing the same. But Ponies are getting drafted up there, I'm not sure why." He told her.

"When they return I will try messaging her...good day" She and Ademar leave. "Why wouldn't they tell me of this, I'm a princess, a princess of Equestria but they left me in the dark."

"Maybe they didn't want to worry you, but seeing that much equipment being produced reminds me of before my peoples war, when we were preparing and taking land, weapons and vehicles were being produced at a massive rate, soldiers being drafted to fight. There must be conflict brewing Twilight."

"With whom? Equestria is at peace and has been for 1,000 years. Wars have happened between then, outside of Equestria, but we always finds ways to end them without violence, we provide refugees on both sides comfort and sanctuary. We cant be at war, The Chrystal Empire, Griffonia, Dimondia, and Yayyakystan our all at well terms with us."

"Who then, who would start a war with Equestria." Twilight Stopped to think, then it came to her.

"Well....there are the changelings, a Race of Shape shifters that feed off love, they attacked Canterlot a couple of years ago led by their queen, Chrysalis. She was defeated. We have had conflict with them a few times since then."

"Perhaps they return in full force, wanting what they lost." Ademar said.

"I hope not..." Twilight said sadly, her ears lying flat in sadness.

They walked to the train station to head home. On the train Twilight saw some recruits exit and go to the military academy in Canterlot. Ademar watched the young Stallions and Mares chat happily in their recruit Uniforms, he realized that these ponies were not used to war and might not survive it with the technology they had. Many thoughts went through his head, they finally stopped when he thought of the 262. If he were able to repair it he could use it against these Changelings.

"Twilight I have an Idea...if war is to start I will stand by Equestria's side, though we must get the 262 fixed and I need you to ready your Lab."

"You will fight for us....but why must I get my lab ready."

"Because I am going to show you how to make a plane. Something that might help in the coming conflict." Twilight nearly screamed in excitement, she could no longer stand still, she was shaking excitedly and smiling Happily.

"We are making a plane!! We can start now, Ademar hold onto me." When he does she teleports them to her castle. "I will get my research notes and pencils ready, Tell me when-....Are you okay?" Ademar was holding his stomach, inside he felt like he was going to vomit.

"Yes...never do that again please...."

Twilight Shrugs and returns to gathering the Necessary materials to start drawing blueprints.
