Prologue Alive once more and an unexpected rescue.

Thousands of years ago before Nightmare Moon's banishment...

Castle of the two sisters has hold many secrets in every room, recorded history, and many more mysteries.  Only some rooms have not been discovered yet, since no magic can detect any of them inside or outside.  There isn't any of them to open, unless of course if you have been a decade of learning about all of Equestria's rules and learning to break them apart one at a time.  Well anyways though, each room has hold documents, archives, battle logs, and weapon blueprints made by humans.  About more than half of them have either been stolen or destroyed since a raging war that has been spreading out everywhere from other places.

Only Princess Celestia and Luna were allowed inside, but they only look and do not touch dangerous weapons.  The Brigade Forces does not trust every living beings completely since they only shared for supplies and healing wounded.  It was for the protection to keep any crimes and war to be suppressed.  Everything the humans had to go do was for going on missions, search and destroy, capture or eliminate leaders, protect villages/towns/cities, recon in every countries, and making secret outpost to use for given emergencies.

Aside from being different and dangerous, the humans don't always be violent to any other beings.  They only want to have a peaceful home to live, enjoy, relax, and have fun playing with any ponies or other creatures.  It was quite difficult for them to warm up of being the same, but you just got to take one step at a time in order to be accepted.  Many of these ponies, gryphons, zebras, minotaurs, dragons, and more other creatures didn't want them on their lands, but some of them did warm up and accepted them.

The technology is just a slow start to make since well there wasn't enough intelligence for Brigade Force back on earth.  They did had some amnesia of what happened to their past lives, but it must of been something else blocking their own memories.  It does really hurt for them of not knowing who you parents are or what your friends looked like.  It was hard to live for that, but luckily more than half of Brigade members has began having relationship of inter species for maybe to be a family, even though some might not approve of it.

Time has passed for at least seven years, until a shocking news has surfaced on planet Equis.  Rebellion has risen from multiple areas in every countries to strike down two goddess ponies and their own forces.  It was a massive war that would destroy the peaceful planet of Equis, but not if the Brigade forces has anything to say about it.  Only a week has been gone and the Rebellion has been defeated.  Though the losses were between low and high, even the toughest Brigade Force have endured their own struggled heavy losses.  Only four Brigade members has survived a brutal strike and they were heart broken to see their comrades that have been family to them passed away, but their leader has taken a lot of damaged and he won't last long.  So their leader has asked Private Kimba to listen closely.

Major Chris William, leader of Bridage Force, has given Private Kimba Cross to be in charge to look out and protect his surviving members, look out for them, respect them, don't hesitate in taking orders, just act on them wisely, and to make sure they get back to earth alive one day before passing on in another life.  Private Kimba didn't know of what to do or how to become leader, but he did accept it so that a new team would be born from the ashes.  He would need to learn how it could work of finding his new members into training and his old members will need all their strengths for getting ready too until those three will be able to go back home.  Now that Kimba, his members, and the ponies have buried the fallen Brigade members in honor and saluting their bravery, he had a talk with the Alicorn Princesses.  They were surprised and shocked about his request, but Celestia thinks it was the right thing to do.  Now that a new cryo chambers have been made, Kimba and his teammates have said their goodbyes to the Princesses and the other living beings and thanking them for everything and accepting them.  Although it won't be forever of saying goodbye, Kimba will be awakened in action again and to fulfill his promise of his deceased mentor leader.

(Present time, Ruins of the Elements of Harmony... )

Deep in the underground, there lies some cryo chambers of the Brigade Force members.  The rest have been empty inside, but has kept records of whom or what has been kept in.  Now it seems that one member's pod is now activated of thawing out.

"Time of sleep is up, due to recent years of fear, anger, and hate on Planet Equus.  Numbers of every living being are in danger now and it's been too long to be sleeping like this Private Kimba Cross.  Do not worry though, your other members will have some time off to do more training until they are needed by you.  Weapons, supplies, food, water, and your new uniforms are ready to go.  You will now be waking up and your objective is to secure the base of any hostiles and locate any blueprint of next advancements of tech.  Once you meet the Princesses again, you are on your own.  Good luck Kimba and remember of what you have learned long ago." A.I. said saluting.

As the thawing is done for a few minutes, the appearance of Kimba is now awakened.  His new look of body of is 21 years old, height at 5 foot 8, weighs about 170 pounds, eyes are grey, hair comb cut black color, and somewhat good muscles on him.

"Ahhhhh finally what a good sleep." Kimba said yawning, stretching his arms out slowly, and opening his eyes.

"Hum, I wonder what has been different around here."

While getting up from his pod and putting on some clothes, he notices that everything in the room has been all dusty.  Like nothing has been ever cleaned.  He sighs and just have to clean up without anyone or anything to help out.

'It's always got to be me for work duties.' He thought grumbling to himself.

(45 minutes later... )

Now that everything is clean and spotless, Kimba has put on his new suit of clothes.  He has eaten food and drank water, now that he'll be ready to see what's up above the surface from underground.  Before doing so, he thought of being prepared  for any danger.

"Okay now let's see what I have got for in case of emergency.  Got my same old wolf head knife, Springfield Rifle with advance scoping mode, protective vest armor, med pack, active camo device, and good samurai edge pistol." He said checking his list.

Now already well equipped,  he press a button behind a bookcase and opens an entrance upstairs.  He looks back to his teammates that are still sleeping in their pods.  He nods to them to protect any innocent beings out there as he closes the secret door.

'Don't you worry Scott and Elaina, I'll be doing some training and make a new team.  It will take some time to find out of what happened after all these years sleeping.  Just wish me luck my friends.' He thought to keep calm and moving on to a better life.

Finally outside now far from the ruin, Kimba inhaled and exhaled long to see a beautiful sight, only it's actually getting close to nightfall.  It was strange that everything has been quiet, too quiet.

"At least it's good to finally be outside once more outside.  I wonder how the princesses and the other ponies have been doing without the Brigade Force?  Well... I just have to walk more and find any village or town anywhere." He said walking to keep an eye out.

"..."

"Luckily I can make sure to set up a small base ports to position a defense site."

"..."

"Hmmmmm something seems off about this forest, like there's no other creatures here." He said and began to stop walking.

"..."

"Hey uh, can anybody or anything call out right now?!"

"...Help."

Kimba heard a weak sound asking for help, so he thinks that someone or something is in trouble.  He walk turned left to hear a few weak sounds carefully.  It was very closely as he finds the source and now he found it in front of him nearby some bushes.

'Woah, it seems that this pony is in pretty bad shape.  Must be these goons that were dragging this poor humanized pony for who knows what they're planning.  I have to do something without being spotted.' He thought

He sees a couple of gryphons that were talking about what to do with this pony.  They both have dusty clothing and some tough armor for their own amusement to fear other creatures out there.  Now their arguing of what to do with this pony, either of wanting to eat her or just leave her out here to die with timber wolves or something else to chew on.  Either they are very foolish or just too stupid to think about planning a head start, since they don't know that Kimba is watching behind the trees.

'Hmmmmm I can try to at least use a distraction to break one apart, but that would be too easy to start.  Maybe some hand to hand combat, but they could have a trick up their sleeve or fur.  Well lucky me, I got something to add some fear into these idiots.'

Hiding from sight, Kimba has loaded up his silencer springfield rifle with five bullet darts.  Already fully loaded and checking his knife, just in case being spotted and go to plan b, he carefully aimed the rifle up and used a scope on it to look at the two targets.

'Let's see if I still got some use into training.'

He fired his weapon at the two gryphon's necks without drawing any noises.  For about a few seconds later, the gryphons faces were now afraid and scared that something is haunting them from everywhere.  Without not knowing of what to do next, they went to fly off somewhere, leaving behind their weapons and the collapsed injured pony.

"Hum... that was easier and more funny to see than I thought." Kimba said holding in his laughter not drawing any more trouble.

Now that everything is all clear, he slowly got up and quickly check on the pony to see if it's alright by hearing any pulses.

"Hmmmm looks like it's a mare female pony.  At least that she will be alright, she does look kinda cute with what looks like a green toothpaste hair and tail on her, eh probably not so soon to talk like this." He said shaking his head from a creepy thought.

"...W-who are you?" The minty pony said weakly while her eyes are shut.

"Oh um sorry if I had to check up on you, thought that you were dead.  Luckily I was able to scare off those two gryphon goons.  My apologies for not coming in so soon to save you, are you alright?" He said looking away from the pony's teared up clothing.

"Y-Yes and thank you very much for saving me."

"It's okay, now can you be able to walk now?  We have to get going before those bullies come back."

"I-I can't walk right now... c-can you help carry me please?"

"Of course I can, that's my job to help out when needed."

Kimba has now carried the minty unicorn pony in his arms, careful to not damage anything on her body and began to walk.  While walking up further ahead, the minty pony slowly opened her eyes up to see her savior.  She was fully shocked and surprised to see a real live human in front of her own yellow eyes, but she just had to be sure about it.

"A-Are you by chance a human being?" the minty pony said pausing not to get too excited.

"Indeed I am young lady, my name is Kimba Cross, but you can call me Kimba for short." He said smiling at her.

"M-My name is Lyra, Lyra Heartstrings." She said while holding her arms by his neck.

'Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh!  I finally found a real live human in front of my very own eyes!  I have to know everything about this human named Kimba! He must know of where his other human kind is!' She thought getting really too excited.

Kimba just looks at Lyra like she's excited and giggling about something, but he just chuckled and shaking his head.

'This girl is really very strange, maybe there is something else about her that I can get to know of.  Wonder how long it has been since me and my teammates were in our chambers?  Must have been a long time ago.' He thought making a note to it.

(30 minutes later... )

"Woooooooooow this lake is beautiful.  I have never seen this one in the Everfree Forest before." Lyra said awe-struck.

"It really is pretty cool, though not entirely better than the other places I've been to." Kimba said snickering at his own memory.

"Which places have you been to?"

"Well it's hard to explain with all the details right now, but are you going to be alright not going home tonight?"

"I'm fine really and my roommate won't be back home until tomorrow evening."

"Well okay then if you say so."

Few minutes had gone by in silence.  Neither one hasn't spoken until Lyra had some questions for Kimba.

"So ummmm Kimba... c-can you uh?"

"It's okay Lyra, you can ask me anything."

"You see uh, can you tell me more about yourself if that's alright with you?"

"Hmmmm I can't tell you a lot of detail since I don't reveal every information to any pony or any other creatures."

"Oh um I s-see..." She murmured wen her ears went flat.

"However though-" He said when her ears perked up with glee. "-I can tell you some of my own life, but you'll have to promise not to speak to any other ponies about my life, okay?"

"Sure thing, cross-my-heart-hope-to-fly-stick-a-cupcake-in-my-eye!" She said gesturing her hand sign.

"What was it that you were doing just now?" He said tilting his head.

"I learned it from my friend Pinkie Pie back in Ponyville a while ago.  It's to never break a pinkie promise to a good friend!"

"So you think I am now your friend?"

"Yep!"

"Fair enough since I did saved you.  Okay we better rest here for now."

Kimba has gently put Lyra on the ground so that they found a good hiding spot behind some trees.  Lyra pulled out some ink, paper, and quill to remember everything he'll tell her.  She also had her tail swishing around and her eyes glowing sparkly.

"So which part of my life do you wish to talk about Lyra?"

"Hmmmmm how about what things you eat and drink, clothing, history of your kind, anything."

"Well I am human or homo sapien since we weren't born on this planet.  We were actually born on our home world called planet earth and our kind has lived millions of years ago.  That part will be for later and as for our digestion system, we eat like fruits, vegetables, and meat.  Don't worry about the last part, we are omnivore and we don't kill or eat people or animals cause that'll make carnivores if we aren't too careful to balance our body system.  Next is clothing, since the past millions of years, we have a rule to dress in clothing so that we don't try to expose ourselves from a high or low temperature cause it will kill us since we don't have a lot of fur like you ponies do."

"Hmmmmm interesting, by any chance do you remember of how many humans are on planet earth?"

"Last thing I remember... the number of humans on my world are possibly seven billion if I'm not mistaken."

Lyra's mouth has jaw dropped of hearing about that.  While she was paused to process all this information, Kimba notices something sharp inside Lyra's pony leg.  Pulling out his first aid medkit, he pulled out some supplies.  Lyra yelped out a bit, only to see him bandaging up her leg.  She wanted to ask of what he is doing, but she'll let that go just now since realizing her leg was in pain and that he is kind enough to make it feel better.

"Sorry about that Lyra, I noticed something was on your leg and I had to bandage it up." He said then had his head up to see her eyes and that got him confused of why she is still staring at him.

"Oh um t-thanks for patching up my leg." She said looking away with a small blush.

"Don't mention it and I put in a painkiller in it so it should be good in the morning.  Ready to get going now?"

Lyra nodded her head as he gave her a piggyback ride.  He was surprised to see her a little lighter, but just shakes his head as he began to walk.  Upon further ahead, there is light up the dirt path leaving the forest.  Kimba just froze to see he went to a wrong path and he sees a town called Ponyville.  Luckily at night, there wasn't any ponies to be seen and it a relief to him.

"Dammit I took the wrong road.  Why didn't you tell me we were heading up to this place?" He said glaring behind him seeing her.

"Sorry about that Kimmy, I just wanted to see the look on your face." She said giggling and sticking her tongue out.

'I'll be sure to get you for this Lyre.' He thought thinking an evil plan later on and holding his laughter at her new nickname.

"So now that we've arrived here, do you know where I can stay at for tonight?"

"My house is near Sugarcube Corner.  Me and my roommate live there." She pointed to him in the right direction.

He nodded his head and began to sneak by every house to not get spotted.  Upon reaching the house where she said it's at, he gently let her go off his back as she grabbed a key to open the door.  Inside Lyra's house smells good and it was very clean.

"Wow this is really pretty to see Lyra.  Have you done this all by yourself?"

"Heh heh thank you and no.  Me and Bonbon always clean up, but it's mostly her than me." Lyra said scratching her back head.

"Lyra..." He murmured not liking the last part.

"Uh sorry, I'll be sure to help her out more." She said tucking her head down.

"I know it's always hard for getting to know other roommates, but don't let her do all the hardwork." He said shaking his head

"I know I know..."

"Well I'm tired now, do you mind if I sleep on a bed or something?" He said yawning a bit.

"Sure thing, I'll show you which room to sleep in, but do you want something to eat anyways?"

"That will be fine by me, it's been so long to have a good meal." He said making her smile in excitement showing him her cooking.

While Lyra pointed a room for Kimba upstairs, she went back down to grab something to eat and drink.  She still thinking of being really excited to see a human of how soft his hands were while carrying her and how he treats her kindly.  She a little down to know that if he wants to stay longer since she has more information.  Lucking she has her notes down and ready for more in the morning.

"I really need to think of something to do.  I can't have any pony or anything to take him away.  After everything that I had to search for any signs of real live humans, I finally found one and I'm not gonna let that happen." She murmured in a sad tone.

An hour has passed and Lyra went upstair to see if Kimba is still up.

"Kimba, are you up yet?  I brought in some food for you." She said knocking on the door.

"Yes Lyra, just let me open the door."

While Kimba is done changing his cloths, he opens the door and invites Lyra in as she puts on the table.

"Hey Kimba, I wanted to ask you something.  How come you don't have a cutie mark on you?"

"I never heard about them.  Can you put into more detail about them to me?"

"Well every pony earns a cutie mark when we are just a filly or older.  We also have our special talent when earning your cutie mark.  For example, my cutie mark on my thigh is a Lyre.  It represent my talent of playing music like soft ones."

"That is pretty cool, so those are what they were called.  Well um humans don't have cutie marks, only get a tattoo and it wrinkles off.  We only find a job to our liking when we're 18 years or older, but sometimes it's more than one job to help pay for our family, repairing things, taxes for government funding, and charity for helping sick kids."

"Oh uh what about any magic, weather control, anything for helping out?"

"Look Lyra, my human kind on earth do not have cutie marks, magic, or controlling the weather that kills all lives.  Also though, talking pony kinds or other creatures that have magic doesn't exist since it's just an old story tale in kids books, like they are just myths and legends.  Only thing that we rely on is technology and it has been advancing millions of years ago and it's been used to kill friends and/or enemies." He said in a serious tone.

"Surely there are any pony kinds on earth, right?" Lyra said shaken in fear hearing about his own world not having magic.

"We do have earth ponies, but they do not talk nor any other animal cause human kind is the dominant species to talk."

"No magic, no weather control,  no cutie marks, just only rely on tech?" She murmured to him when he nodded his head.

Lyra was in silence to hear about it and she has some tears coming out of her eyes.  Not wanting to see a girl cry, Kimba wrapped his arm around her and having her face in his chest.  He felt really bad of talking to her the truth, but he didn't want to hide it anyway.

"I'm really sorry Lyra." He said while slowly petting her furry soft head with his right hand.

"I-Is it always that horrible on your planet?" She said still sobbing into his chest.

"Not always, there are some of us wanting to have a peaceful life.  We do save lives including animals, but there is no way we could save them all from a lot of bad people.  I did say we saved kids to help them get better from other diseases, but there's still some bad people that want to kill for fun or worse sickening things.  It was real terrifying when innocent people just get caught in the fight or worse."

"I can't believe that human kind has been doing all those things, but it's nice to see not all of them aren't that bad."

"Yep there's always hope on earth.  So enough about my history, let's eat up before going to bed."

She nodded her head then wiped her tears when breaking up the hug and they both started to eat.  Kimba's eyes widened as he kept enjoying Lyra's cooking while she is giggling next to him, smiling of thinking that she did good on her best cooking.

"This is really delicious Lyra, what did you put in these fruits and salads."

"Well it's not much I put in, but a pony chef once said to every pony, 'A chef can never reveal his or her secret ingredient'."

"Whatever it is, this should be put on sale now.  Kay it's a nice meal, goodnight Lyra."

"WAIT ALREADY-" Lyra shouted then turned her head to see Kimba already asleep.

'Geez this human is really something else.  At least he's funny to hang around with.' She thought chucking to herself.

Lyra got off the bed as she began to pull the blanket covers to put on Kimba' body then began to turn away.  Before going out of the extra, she looked back at Kimba still sleeping as she when to him, bent her head low, and kissed Kimba's forehead.

"Thank you Kimba, for saving me and cheering me up about your home world, I wish to know more about you when you wake up." She smiled with a small blush and went back to her room.

End of Prologue...
