Chapters The year is 2018 and i've been in the USMC(united states marine corps) for at least 2 years and im only 18. Yes that means i have been fighting and killing since I was 16, drafted by the army for how bad the war is getting. Im in a squad with with some of my best friends....and with the worst person ANYONE could be with in thier lives. Thier names are as followed:
Pvt. "corpsman" Anderson. He patches us up in any bad situation and he saved my life MORE than once so im thnakful for that.
Cpl.Adam. He's one of my best friends and hes also the comedian even though he has bad jokes. Spc.Dixon. Hes the one with out M249 LMG SAW. He saved us from who knows how many ambushes with his SAW but we're grateful anyway.
SSTG.John. He's the brains of our group and is like an older brother to me and i hope he makes it home because he has a wife and 3 kids back in the states.
Me PFC.Jerry. Im the strongest of the group,but also the kindness to where if i see a wounded Iraqi kid or injured civilian i try and help them.
Then there's the asshole named Sgt.Sarge. He likes to be called Sarge for who knows what reason, but he controls our squad.
Mission 256:Investigate a possible torture house in the Villiage of Bagdahd.
Objective:Try and find any survivers and bring them back to base camp ALIVE at any costs.
We stacked up on the door me being the number 1 guy. First one to enter a house and possibly the first to get shot. Thats why i picked to be first man. "Serge ready when you are." I said above a whisper. "Roger that Jerry one three. One....Two...THREE!!!!!!" I kicked the door in then entered the house with my M416 at the ready. "Clear" I yelled while we searched the rest of the house. We checked eatch room hearing a loud "Clear". Then I saw a door and I heard someone say in Iraqi "SHUT THE FUCK UP BITCH!!"
*WHIP*
They were hurting what I thought was a woman then after another hit I heard sobing and a yelp that sounded female. "SARGE OVER HERE!!!!" They rushed over to me. "Sir i think someones tourturing a woman down th-"
*WHIP*
I squezed my gun tighter ready to just go down there and kill every single insurgent down there. "Ok stack up were going down there." Said Sarge. So we did as i was ready to go down there. Right before i kicked the door down Sarge stoped me. "WAIT...here use this." He gave me the flashbang. "Thanks". I took the flashbang then yelled "Fire in the hole." I kicked the door down throwing the flashbang down the steps.
*BOOM*
"GO GO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!" We rushed down the steps and then I saw 20 Insurgents armed with Ak47's and the tourterier holding the whip with a pistole to his side. Time seemed to slow when i fired my weapon along with my fellow marines killing all of the insurgents down there...except for the tourter. I tackled him to the ground takeing out my knife holding it to his throat. "Who the hell you think you are...hurting an inoccient woman." I said in and angry whisper. He chuckled and said in brken english "Ha ha ha you think I was hurting a woman? How can you think that when it even isn't human?" I turned my head to see what was hanging on the wall.
He was right. It wasn't human...it was something else...something diferent.
"What the hell is that?" I got up and went over to check on the thing. "Looks like a pegasus... hows that possible?" I looked back and saw the insurgent try to get up,but i shot him in the head point blank with my M416. "Nice shot!" My whole squad said at the same time. "Heh thanks. Now lets see if this thing is al-"
Its eyes shot open as it started to squrim and scream. We all jumped back scared out of our minds for once. "SHOOT IT DAMN IT!!!!!" Sarge yelled. My whole squad got ready to fire when I jumped in front of the creature be fore they fired. The screaming stopped imediatly. "NO DONT SHOOT IT!!" They lowered thier weapons confused at what i was doing. I was confussed myself but the caretaker inside of me took over out of nowhere. I love animals and i love to take care of them and for some reason...this one creature got to me.
"WHAT THE FUCK JERRY!!! YOU COULD'VE GOT SHOT!!!" Sarge was pissed off but i ignored him as i turned to the pegasus in front of me. I looked at her legs and all 4 of them seemed to have been scratch in some way. Her face was brused and she looked like she had one black eye. I dont know how i knew it was a "she" but i somehow did.
I put my kife away and let my rifle hang from its sling from my chest. I moved my hand foward to touch its leg but it let out a quiet whimper. I looked at both her eyes as i saw both fear and depression. What i did next shocked me and my team. "Can you understand me at all?" "GODDAMN IT JERRY YOU RE-"
She slowly noded her head up and down signaling she understood me. I was surprised but only for a moment. The smell of blood and gunsmoke began to fill the room. "Look...if you can undertsand me then can you talk?" She noded then said "Y-y-yes." I smiled then said. "Ok thats good..now im gonna try and help you but first we have to get you out of this basement. Do you trust me?"
I could clearly see the fear in her eyes but she noded "yes". "Ok now i have to cut off these ropes...ready?" "Yes... please be careful." I smiled "Don't worry i will." I took the knife and cut the ropes holdeing her up off. She fell over but i caught her in time in my arms. I put my knife away as i started to carry her upstairs. I found a couch i could put her down on so i did. "HEY YOU GUYS COMEING UP HERE?!" I yelled downstairs. The squad then ran upstairs to where me and this creature was. "Anderson you think you could help here?"
"Ummm.... I could try but i dont know what i could do." "Just clean the wounds and bandage them up. After this we'll take her back to base camp." Anderson noded. "Alright it'll be a little bit." Then i heard the dreaded *CLICK* I looked up and saw Sarge holding his pistole loaded hammer back aming at the creature. "NO YOU DONT!!" I got up and grabed his wrist pinning him aginst the wall makeing him drop the pistole.
"JERRY WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!" I was about to choke him but stoped before my hand made contact with his throat. "I saw what you were gonna do and I swear to god if you EVER try and hurt her with ANYTHING I will kill you and you know that. Im tired of seeing you kill inoccient people both kids and adults." He just chuckled. "Heh heh you think im the only one? I saw you kill children and other adults that had to guns."
It took every willpower i had to not just kill him there. Instead I punched him as hard as i could with my left hook. While he was on the ground i yelled into his face "YOU THINK I FUCKING WANTED TO!!!! I only did what you asked me to do because you said that they were armed when they weren't!"
I got up and walked over to where she was. Still on the couch basicly covered in badages. I crouched down in front of her when her eyes reopened. She gave me a small smile. I didnt see the fear that was in her eyes anymore. Then she said her name.
"My names spitfire of the wonderbolts." I smiled back at her. "Spitfire....cool name. My names PFC.Jerry. That there is Cpl.Adams." I pointed to Adam. "Hey" he said waveing his hand lightly. "That there fixing you up is Pvt.'corpsman' Anderson."
She smiled up at him and he smiled back.
"That there is SSgt.John. Hes a good guy." He miled at her and waved."Hey"
"Then there's the guy i tackled named Sgt.Sarge. Dont ask why he likes his name that way i dont know why either.
Thats when Anderson was done fixing her up. "Well now shes done. All we got to do now is get her back to base camp and they'll do better...HOLY SHIT I just realized something." "What?" i asked.
"How are we gonna get her back to base camp with the CO's permission!!??"
"Oh...that. Huh i guess i didnt think that far. Well doesnt matter im takeing her with us. The CO said bring back any survivors and thats what im gonna do." My whole squad looked at me then at Spitfire then back at me. "Fine Jerry you can take her. But your carring her not us got it?" I nodded. "Alright good. Now lets move out marines!" Sarge can be and asshole sometimes but he isnt all that bad...sometimes.
I went down and picked spitifre up gently. The way a father would carry a newborn. She then whispered "Thanks." "For what?" I was confussed. She chuckled and said "For saveing my life... more than once." I then realized what she was talking about. "Heh no problem. You should get some rest now we're a longs way from camp." I felt her nod as she fell assleep in my arms while i carried her. I couldnt help but smile lightly. I dont know why but something about her made me feel like....there was meaning in this life after all.
(Authors note: Ok if you made it this far it means your read the whole story. So i thank you all for that, but remmeber if there is anything i can change in my form of writeing please tell me. Make your comments as harsh as you want them to be. Again thank you for reading this far. I will try and get and update up as soon as possible.)
Chapter 2
We arrived at the camp within a couple of hours. When we got back it was at least 7:00p.m. Spitfire was still assleep to my reilief. Considering all the pain she was in and probely will be when she wakes up. Anderson walked beside me the whole time. When the base was in sight he asked "So you think Comander Earl will let her stay?"
"I dont know Anderson. But i didnt get a chance to thank you for helping her so thanks." I looked over and he had a smile on his face. "No problem Jerry. Look theres base camp." He pointed at the base camp of Bravo company.
When we got to the entrance there was an applause for us since we managed to complete a mission that most squads would have failed at. But they stoped when they saw what I was carreing in my arms. Some of them got thier guns ready being marines ready to kill anything. But one look at them and they knew that this creature wasnt for killing.
Then I saw Cmdr.Earl comeing our way. Spitfire was basicly as light as a small dog to my surprise. So with one arm I held her while with my other arm I saluted. "Sir." We all said in unison when he came by. "At ease soldiers...my my my Pfc.Jerry looks like you brought us a friend. Shes a survivor of the 'Tourutre hous' isnt she?" I dont know how he knew spitfire was a girl but I wasnt gonna ask.
"Yes sir she was....toutured preety badly and she was the only survivor of the house. I dont know how but shes still alive and with your permission I would like to take her to the medical tent and see if there's anything the medics there can do." To my surprise he smiled and noded. "Of course Jerry. But shes yours to take care of so if she does to much damage then its on your head. Got it?" I nodded with a salute. "Sir yes sir."
When i got to the medical tent and entered it i saw that all of the medics and assisstants were stareing at me. I went to where the main docter was. "Hey doc."
"Hey Jerry..... um whats that in your arms?" I looked down at spitfire still sleeping in my arms. She was the cutest thing i have ever seen in my entire life. I looked back 'Doc' and said "Shes a pegasus and her names Spitfire and how i know this is because she can talk. No joke she can talk....but right now shes to weak to speak. Is there anything you guys can do to try and at least help her the best you can?"
There was a short pasue before 'Doc' made a long sigh. "I guess we can try our best. Put her on that table over there and we'll get to work. When we are done i'll personaly come and get you ok?" I noded as i went to the bed he directed me to go to. I placed spitfire on the bed gently so not to wake her up. She slept soundly as if nothing happened to her at all. I couldnt help but smile to myself. I turned to the Doc. "Thanks for doing this Mac and please come get me no mater where i am ok?" He looked at me confussed a little but nodded. "Alright will do Jerry."
"GO GO GO MOVE MOVE MOVE" Gunfire was happening everywhere and i couldnt see where the enemy was. I saw soilder after sooldier die in fron of me. I tried to get a better shot but couldnt the gunfire was so intence. I was scared out of my wits thinking what to do. I was thinking of going into a ball and just cream until i couldnt scream no more. Then *FWOOOOSH* BOOM*
"AHHHHH" I woke up in my makeshife bed in cold sweat looking around franticly holding my gun tightly. The ten flaps opened and standing there was Mac. "Hey Jerry shes awake and wa- are you alright?" I looked at him and noded. "Yeah....yeah im alright just a nightmare nothing bad." "Ok well spitfire is awake and wants to talk to you. You comeing?" I got up and went out of the tent. "Yeah yeah im comeing."
When i got to the tent i saw spitfire sitting up with a bandage on her right eye where her black eye was. She wasnt covered completly in bandages but enough to show shes been through alot. I walked over and sat in a chair beside her bed. "Hey spitfire how you holding up?" She looked at me and smiled. "Im doing ok but my eye still hurts so does my legs but other than that im good." She said all this with a smile. I almost forgot how serious her wounds were before we arrived. "Thats good to know. But something is bothering me though...how in the world did you arrive here and of all places iraq?"
She looked at the ground then i saw a tear form in her good eye. 'Damn it Jerry you just opened up and old wound you dumbass.' "Um look spitfire if its to much we can wait sorry if it was to soon." She shook her head. "No no...its ok its just....I lost a close friend when we got here." I put my hand on her shoulder or what i thought was her shoulder. "Hey its ok...look we can wait a little longer before you tell me ok?" She looked up at me and nodded. "No i have to tell you now while its still fresh in my mind and it'll hurt later if i keep it hidden inside."
"Ok spitfire its up to you now or later." I patted her shoulder to show her i was there and would try to help her in any other way i could. "Alright well first off you should know his name. He was part of out flight group 'The wonderbolts.' His name was Sorian."
(In this chapter it will be told through spitfires POV on how she and Sorian got there all the way up to when Jerry found her in the basement.)
Chapter 3
Me and Sorian were flying over our home called "Equestria" until we saw something in the distance. I didnt want to go there but sorian being sorian he went after it anyways. I had no choice but to follow him so i did. We were probely about 20 feet from it until i saw what it was. Some sort of black hole in the middle of nowhere.
"Cooooool. Hey spitfire want to go and check it out?"
"No i think its dangerous sorian."
But he ignored me like he always does. He got closer to the black hole then all of a sudden he turned and grabed me. I was gonna throw him off until i saw something pulling him into the black hole. I then tried to help pull him out but instead i was pulled in along with him.
Everything went black and when i awoke i heard loud screaming and yelling. I looked around the room and realized i wasnt in my flight suit. I tried to move but couldnt since i was tied up against something. Then the screaming became easier to hear and when i looked towards the screams i saw sorian tied up like i was but he was getting whiped by something. The creatures like you jerry were...what looked like tourtureing him and they were speaking some kind of different language.
I yelled out "SORIAN!!!!"
The creatures turned around and then i saw the true state sorian was in. He was brutely beaten and was in what looked like terrible pain. His breathing was low and wheezy. If i didnt know he was sorian i wouldnt be able to recongize him at all. Then the un thinkable happened...one of the creatures said something in a foreighn language and pointed to sorian. One of the creatures nodded and took out a knife.....and slit his t-t-throat.
*************************************************
(Now back to first person with Jerry)
I was shocked when i heard that last part and it seemed it was to much for her to handle as i saw a single tear run down her face. Now i really felt like an asshole for asking her how she got here. Just when i thought it wouldnt get worst for her more tears flowed down her one good eye. She then began to openly sob and i didnt know what to do. One part of me was yelling 'HUG HER LET HER KNOW ITS OK!!!!' Where another part was telling me to 'just get up and leave'.
The good part of me got the best of me. I put my hand on her shoulder and i thought she would shy away, but instead she leaned foward and rested her head on my chest while she continued to openly sob. I then slowly put my arms around her and try to comfort her. She then put her arms (forehooves?) around me and huged back. I ran my fingers through her mane i guess it was. Then i heard my name get called by none other than Sarge.
"PFC.Jerry get your ass out here NOW!!!!!!!!" By the sound of his voice he was pissed off preaty badly. I looked back down at Spitfire and pated her back. "Listen spitfire i have to go for a little bit ok?....... Just stay here and try to get better and im sorry for your lost."
I then broke the embrace and sat spitfire onto the bed. I got up without makeing eye contact with her and turned and went towards the exit of the tent. The welcome out there was not good.
(Authors notes: Ok well looks like i managed to get ANOTHER chapter out, but by the looks of things i dont know if i should continue this story. But i will if i find a couple of readers that are still interested in this story. Also im truely sorry if i didnt write all that well. Like i said before first fic means alot of mistakes will be made. I promise in the future if i continue makeing stories they will not be as bad as this one. Anyways thanks for reading and crticim is wanted.
Chapter 4
I went outside to see that basicly almost the whole base camp was watching me as i got out. And lord and behold stading at the entrance to the tent was none other than Sgt.Sarge. Standing beside him was our CO(comanding officer.) Cmdr.Earl. Sarge had an evil smile on his face so i knew then that he told Earl about what happened in the house. Earl had an angry look in his eyes.
"JERRY FRONT IN CENTER! NOW!!!" Yelled Earl. I ran on over right in front of him haveing a little fear inside of me.
"Ok now your squad leader here Sarge said that you tackled him while still in enemy terrictory and thretend to kill him is that true?" I looked at Sarge and back at Earl. I was gonna try and show no fear towards him at all.
"SIR YES SIR!!!! And im glad i did. The reason is that he tried to kill spitfire the pegasus in the medical tent." I stood there still at attention knowing i might as well just dig my own grave right now and jump in it. I was so burried that i wouldnt be able to dig my way out. Earl looked as if he was gonna blow in anger. But right when he was about to yell his ass off i saw something and i knew exactly what it was.
"RPG!!!!!!!!!" I yelled as i threw Earl to the side jumping the other way. The rocket flew past me by mere inches. I could feel the exaust as it almost hit me. It flew past the other marines crashing right into the mess hall. I looked in horror as i saw several marines that were working in the kitchen where the rocket did the most damage got ingulfed in flames and shrapnel killing them instainly...well most of them. There was still one marine that survived.
On instinct i got up and sprinted over to the wounded marine. Both his legs were blown off exposeing bone and mucsel. Blood and crimson was everywhere and his whole body had shrapnel on him. I dont know how this poor bastard survived but he wasnt gonna last long.
"MEDIC MEDIC!!" I yelled as loud i could go. Mac came running over with his med kit. He started work on the soldier as i got up to see what else was going on. *FWOOOSH* BOOM* *FWOOSH* *BOOM*
"SHIT MORTERS!!!!!!!" I was running towards our bunker when i saw a morter heading right towards it. I saw Sarge was about to enter. I was gonna let him go in but decided not to. I tackled him to the ground only this time it wasnt to hurt him. It was to save his ass.
"HEY GET OFF OF M-" *FWOOOSH* *BOOM* The bunker was hit directly and collapsed comepletly. If sarge was in there he would have been killed.
"Saved your ass." I said to him as i got up. I griped my M416 in my hands while it was hanging off my chest by a sling. The morters have stopped. I went around to make sure no one was hit. Luckly no one got hurt...except for the 3 K.I.A.s soon to be 4. The poor marine didnt make it after a few minitues after Mac arrived to his side. There names were as followed.
Spc.Adams, Sgt.Kevin, Pvt.Donald, and lastly the one that survived for a short amount of time was SSgt.Colen.
4 K.I.A.s in under 1 minute. They were one of the few of that day.
"TALIBAN UP FRONT!!!" I looked over and saw that Dixion had his M249 SAW set up behind sand bags and was fireing at the enemy. Soon every marine joined him. There so many enemy soldier i couldnt count. I went over to the radio which was still in use despite all of the morters. I got on it.
"THIS IS PFC.JERRY AT BASE CAMP BRAVO REQUESTING IMEDIATE C.A.S. PLEASE WILL SOMEONE READ!!!!"
Seconds went by which felt like hours before the radio came alive. "This is cobra 1 and 2 responding to your C.A.S. request we are 1 mike away and closeing in. Hang in there private we're on our way. Over." That was a huge relief knowing that we were gonna get some help from the air. I got my rifle ready takeing the saftey off and got into position right beside Anderson. I started fireing my rifle looking through the 4X scope i attached on it.
The AH-64 choapers came in and started lighting the taliban up. I dont know how long the battle lasted but it seemed to have ended as soon as it started. The end of my rifle was still smokeing and still a little red hot. I ejected the old clip with a push of a butten then replaced it with a new one. I hit the other butten and put a new round into the chamber. Then as the ringing stopped and the smoke ebgan to clear i remembered something. Something about a certian pony.
"SPITFIRE!!!" I said aloud as i jumped up and sprinted towards the medical tent. I looked for her and yelled her name.
"SPITFIRE!!! SPITFIRE!!! SPITFIRE!!!!!" I looked and looked. There was bullet holes and shrapnel everywhere. Also everything was destroied basicly. I was about to losed hope when i heard a low crying. I the realized it was comeing from under a table. I crouched down and saw spitfire curaled into a ball crying softly to herself. I reached out with my hand touching her mane. She slowly raised her head up and i saw in her good eye there was fear.
A single trail went down her face. "Hey its ok now....you can come out now....its ok spitfire."
She was hesitiant at first but slowly made her way out. When she was completly out from under the table i put my hand on her shoulder gently. Then out of nowhere she huged me tightly as she openly sobed out of terror into my chest. I just huged her back and gently ran my hand through her mane while my other hand was moveing up and down her back. 'Poor pony. She has been here at this camp for one day and this is what happens.....hopefully she'll get home safely.
(Authors notes: Ok well here it is another chapter for you guys out there. Well looks like something might happen to spitfire and Jerry soon, but what? Will spitfire be able to get back home where her friends are or will she have to stay forever in the middle of a war that destroyed tousands of lives alone. But shes not alone...not anymore. Please keep reading and use criticizm but please dont make it harsh like "DONT READ THIS STORY IT SUCKS DICK" that just makes my chances of it getting read lowered alot. So anyways thanks for the support to the few that likes this story.)
Chapter 5
After about 3 minutes spitfire finaly managed to calm down enough to move around. I looked down at her as she looked up at me her eye puffed up and pink from her sobing. I wiped away the small tear trail that was still left from her good eye. I could clearly see that she was in a more frightend state than from before. She was shaking preety badly as well. I had to pick her because she was so shocked. Then i saw Cmdr.Earl comeing towards me and to my surprise he didnt look like he was gonna murder me.
"PFC.Jerry oh thank god your ok because we lost a few men after that attack....and why are you carrying that thing?" He pointed at spitfire who was still shaking a little bit in my arms from the recent attack.
"Look sir i know that im probely gonna get my ass chewed off for doing this but i dont care what you say sir. She's a civilian in my book and i think i should keep her safe by any means neccessary." I stood there looking him in the eyes not careing what would happen to me at all. He just chuckled at what i said. I stood there very confussed and was wondering if he was just being nice just to lash out at me. But he didn't.
"Heh heh yeah i kinda figured that earlier today when you literly stood up to me and i dont find that in anyother marines like you. But well sorry to say this we kinda lost alot of good men today. We're being pulled off of this location for at least a week at our main base further back the line." I nodded feeling a huge relif from finaly being pulled off the line for at least a week. But then i looked around the ruined base. Flames everywhere and i saw several dead marines plus wounded. I looked at earl.
"Um i know that this might seem wierd to ask but do you think you can hold spitfire for a little bit while i check on the marines?" I didnt wait for a response i just gave him spitfire. "Thanks and be careful she is still preety shaken up." I then ran towards the closest wounded marine who was lucky he wasnt killed from his wound. The bullet had entered his...well his ass. I did my best not to laugh at what had happened to him but i just couldnt help but chuckle to myself.
"Alright now heh i think youl be ok private." I pated him on the helmet. The next marine wasnt even close to being comicly wounded. The bullet had entered near his neck and was loosing blood fast. I already knew the guy was gonna die from past experince, but a frantic new medic was doing his best to save his life. I looked around and saw nothing but death and pain. Very few marines weren't shot. That attempted invasion was worst than i thought. I looked back at the wounded marine and saw that he was dead already, but the poor medic thought he was still alive. I knelt down placeing my hand on his shoulder.
"Hey private you need to stop he's gone man....private?" He had tears streaming down his face then he yelled back without looking at me. "I CAN'T HES MY LITTLE BROTHER!!! COME ON JOHN COME ON!!"
That was hard to take in even for a hard core veterin. I shook him a little until he realized that his brother was long gone. I just got up to leave him to mourn over his dead brother. I got used to this kind of stuff seeing it almost everyday for two years does that to you.
I then saw my whole squad still alive and well. "HEY GUYS!!" I ran over waveing my hand so that they saw me clearly.
"HEY JERRY!!!" They all said at once...except for sarge which i didnt care a bit for. I was happy for a moment seeing all of my close friends still alive and kicking. But then i heard several mouns of the wounded and some crying from other marines who lost close friends. I lit out a sigh as i looked back at my men.
"So how long until the helicopters come in to get us out of here?" I was asking the whole group this question. Then i saw Earl comeing carying the now sleeping spitfire. I couldn't help but chuckle as i saw how peaceful she looked even after what happened. I could here other chuckles from the rest of the squad.
"Um...here Jerry you can take her back." He slowly gave her to me so that we wouldn't wake her up from her sleep. Then it hit me.
"Oh crap i just remembered something...how are we gonna get spitfire into our main base without them exparementing on her?"
Sarge just laughed. "HA well that wouldnt be such a bad thing if you ask me because first of all, you seem more interested with keeping that thing alive than your own fellow marines and plus what good will she do. Sorry i mean what will this cunt do for us if shes still alive? Huh?!!" I just stared at him and if i wasnt holding spitfire i would've punch that peice of shit in the damn mouth. But i didnt have to. Out of nowhere Earl, yes cmdr.Earl punched Sgt.Sarge right in the mouth. Hard enough that i heard it and he fell to the ground. We all looked at him surprised.
"I dont care if shes some sort of creature or a goddamn alien. If she didnt hurt us in anyway or tried to then we should help her the best we can. Dont worry Jerry i'll make sure she gets better medical attention and stays safe. But yoy have to keep and eye on her. So from here on out anything she does that would get her in trouble you get punished got it?" I smiled and saluted qucikly.
"Sir yes sir." Then thats when i heard the coppers start to come in. This was the end of day one. How much more will she have to go through?
(Authors notes: Ok finaly got this one up. Look im really sorry for the wait but i had a friend over so yeah. Oh and i might not be able to upload new ones for at least a week since im going to new jearsy for a week. Also please give me ideas for what you want me to do AND if i should make it a little more romantic. CYA GUYS LATER!!!)
Chapter 6
We were on the choppers on the way to the main camp. All of the soldiers on our chooper were stareing at spitfire. Then i felt spitfire move and when i looked down she opened her eye slowly and looked up at me. I gave her a small smile and she just responded with a yawn. Then she looked at the other soldiers and immeditly pushed back against me in fear. I looked at the other soldiers and noticed that they were kinda creepy if they were stareing at her. Then the rest of the my squad that was on the chooper told them to look away. So they did.
"Um.....PFC.Jerry was it?" I looked down and saw that it was spitfire who talked to me. I smiled and noded to her telling her that she was right.
"Where are we going right now because....im a little scared right now because i dont know what will happen. Will you keep me safe if anything bad happens?" I was surprised that she was already this trustworthy to me but i guess she was since i was the only one helping her the best i could. I noded at her.
"Of course i will spitfire and to answer your question we're heading towards our main base where hopefully you will get better medical attention and get some food into you, and since you dont eat meat im sure they will have some apples or something that doesnt involve meat." She smiled and looked out the of the chooper and closed her eyes as the wind hit her face. We were closest to the entrace/exit to the chooper. I could tell she enjoyed the wind hitting her face telling me that she loved to fly.
Then i saw the main base in the distance. It was like a small town sort of. There was a medical building,entertainment building, etc. When we landed i let everyone else get out first. Cmdr.Earl was second to last one out. Not only was he our CO at bravo company base but also commanded our main base. He only arrived earlier that day before the attack happened. Then when i got out i could feel everyone looking at me, but mostly spitfire who was shakeing a little from fear in my arms. Me and Earl were heading towards the medical building first for spitfire.
We entered it and immediatly everyone was stareing at us. I ignored them carrying the now clearly shaking in my arms. "Hey its ok spitfire they are just...a little scared of what you are so just try and stay calm. Im sure they'll get used to you soon enough." She noded remembering what i tould her on the chopper.
"Hey cmdr.Earl um.....who is PFC.Jerry carrying or 'what' is he carrying?" Earl explained to him the whole situation of what happened from beging to end. The docter nodded.
"Oh ok well i guess since you seem to be ok with Jerry helping her out then i guess we can do our best. Espesialy since he stood up to you like that before the attack." He chuckled as he motioned me to a room where they would work on her. I walked in and place spitfire onto the bed that was at the end of the room. Thats when the same docter came in gloves, a small light,gloves,and some shots in his hands.
"Ok well my name is Sgt.Miller and im gonna be helping you today miss..."
"Spitfire...her names spitfire. She can talk its just well....sometimes she doesnt like to talk that much."
"Aw i see what you mean Jerry. Well ok im just gonna check on your condision ok spitfire?" She noded yes. Miller smiled as he got his flashlight and check her good eye first. Then he took off the bandage covering her bad eye which was healing really well. He checked that eye and concluded she didnt need the bandage anymore. Her eye basicly looked like it went back to normal.
"Ok now lets check on those wings you have." He removed the poor bandageing that was done on her wings which caused her to wince a little in pain. "Sorry about that. Ok well looks like they are just damaged a little bit but you shouldnt try and fly for a while ok?" She noded understanding what he said. Then he got out one of the shots and when spitfire saw that she nearly jumped off the bed. I got up and walked over to her and placed my hand on her hoof. That calmed her down a little bit.
"Alright sorry about this spitfire but im gonna have to give you this shot. Its suppose to get rid of any deseasis you might have ok? Im not gonna lie its gonna hurt a little bit."
"Where are you gonna have to give the shot Miller?" He pointed to her right shoulder. I nodded and looked at spitfire. "Ok spitfire he has to give you the shot in order to help you ok?" She looked at the needle then at me and nodded. She then huged me which i used to do when i was little with my dad when i got shots. That memory caused a chuckle from me but then i huged her back gently as if not to hurt her probely still soar wings. Miller taped his shot three times to get rid of air bubbles.
"Ok spit fire one...two....oh wait for got to rub her shoulder to make sure the shot wont infect her." That was a good idea i thought. He got the rubbing acohol and rubed where he was gonna inject the shot.
"Ok for real this time. One...two...three!" He then put the shot into her shoulder and injected the medicne. While spitfire yelped a little and huged me tighter. He was done in a matter of miliseconds of giveing her the shot. Then he got a bandade and put it on where he gave her the shot.
"Alrighty well looks like we're done here and if you want to know why i know so much about her is because im a vet back at home so consider yourselfs lucky for that." I noded being grateful that he was a vet back home. Then i remembered something i have been meaning to ask. "Um Miller where are we gonna sleep while we're here?" He looked at me and gave me a key which said 12. I knew what it meant. The key was a key to room 12 at the hotel like building on the base. "Thanks Miller."
With that i got up and carrying spitfire who wasnt shakeing anymore. I had to go across the base to get to the hotel building from the medical building. Half way there i saw Earl and Anderson talking to eatchother. Anderson then saw me and waved towards me. Both him and Earl walked on over.
"Hey Jerry how are you two doing?" Anderson asked. I explained to them about how she doesnt have a black eye anymore and about her wings and the shot she got. We then walked to the hotel building of the base. We got in and went to our own rooms. Me and spitfire got to our room which had two beds a bathroom and a tv to pass the time. A small slice of home per say.
I put spitfire down on the ground and imeditly she ran towards the bathroom. I just chuckled to myself while i put all of my gear into the locker that was in the room. I put my M416 away along with my vest and pistole belt. So all i was wearing was my camo shirt and long pants. I then remembered about the food we would need. Right when i had that thought spitfire came out of the bathroom.
"Do we have anything to eat here... i mean im starveing." Then both of our stomaches grumbled at the metion of food. I walked over to the fridge which had alot of food. Mainly apples and ham. I wanted to have the ham but remembered that spitfire said where she lived they dont have meat as a food. So instead i grabed the apples and placed them in a bowl i had with me. There was about 20 apples in the bowl. I carried it to the table we had in the small kitchen. When spitfire saw the apples she rushed to the table and began to eat the apples as if they were the last things she would eat.
I chuckled as i grabed one and began to eat into it normaly since i wasnt as hungry as she probely was. Then i remembered something. What was everyone er everypony thinking back where she lived in some place called Equestria?
***********************************************************************************************
(Third person time in equestira)
"Where in the hay are the wonderbolts right now. I mean today is the day they are supposed to perform in ponyville!!!" Rainbow dash exclaimed. It has been four days in equestrian time since sorin and spitfire were brought to the human world. Of course not a single pony knew that at all.
"Ah dont know Rainbow but we might wanna go when there is still sunlight." Turns out the whole Mane 6 came to watch the wonderbolts but something seemed off. The wonderbolts never missed a time to performe for ponyville. The sun was starteing to set and Lunas night was about to come. Applejack,Rarity,Fluttershy,Twilight,Pinkie pie,and Rainbow dash then started to head home until they all felt something. They all kept the feeling to themselves but it was something unusual.
Everypony went home while rainbow dash flew to her cloud house still haveing that wierd feeling in her stomach. It felt like....she was starveing for something to eat.
*************************************************************************************************************
(first person with PFC.Jerry again)
When spitfire was done eating i got us both some water to have. We started to drink a little bit in silince. Then she broke the silince.
"So....what are we gonna do now since well.... i cant fly at all." It looked like she had a little bit of depression in her eyes. I leaned forward and placed my hand on her hoof.
"Only for a little bit spitfire not forever. Look i dont know what you like to watch but i think we can find something on the TV what do you say?" I pated her hoof as i got up and sat on the couch. Spit fire nodded drinking the last of her water and walking on over hoping onto the couch and sitting beside me. I grabed the remote and began to flip through the channels.
"Oh do you think they have romance on this TV?" I looked at her surprised.
"You like romance shows?" She nodded with a tiny blush of embaressment on her face. "Dont feel embarsed im kind of a fan myself. I just hope you dont mind what it is." She nodded no. So i got to a channel that had drama in it. Had some romance but not much. I kinda found it funny how earlier today i was just in a firefight and spitfire was nearly killed who knows how many times and we were just watching TV as if nothing happened. Sad thing was this was only gonna last for 2 weeks.
About an hour later i felt something on my left shoulder. I looked towards my shoulder and found that spitfire had fallen assleep on my shoulder. I found it cute how she slept. So i carefully got up and picked her up. I carried her to one of the two beds and set her down to sleep. I tucked her in and went to my bed after turning off the TV. I layed there looking at the ceiling and i felt something wierd in my stomach. I dont know what it was but it felt like something i had a couple of times when i have a crush one someone. Then it hit me. Was i starting to fall for spitfire? Shes pony a PEGASUS a mythlogical creature and i have a crush on her. I thoguht if i slept on it i would feel better in the morning.
"Yeah sleep thats what i need and i'll feel better tomorow." So i turned and fell assleep.
(Authors notes: OK hopefully i didnt ruin the story by makeing it sound like they were in some town or anything. But think this is in the future so you never know what will happen in the future. Ok well looks like our friend here is starteing to fall for spitfire but the question is this: Does spitfire feel the same way? Well here it is the next update. Might have another one up later today. But in a couple of days im going somewhere for about a week so dont be surprised if you guys have to wait a week for another story. Well thank you to you all who are likeing the story so far and if you dont like HumanxPony fics well im sorry your out of luck. Lastly if you offered to be and editor or proof-reader please tell me how to do it. I know one of you guys offered all ready so you might want to check your email. CYA NEXT TIME!!!!)
Chapter 6
I was only assleep for about three minutes before i woke up to mumbling and small whimpering. I got up and looked towards where spitfire sleeping, and saw that she was turning alot her wings twitching telling me she was haveing a nightmare about being tourtured again. I walked over and was gonna wake her up, but instead she shot straight up wings at attention screaming as if she was in pain. I put both my hands on her shoulders and basicly yelled.
"SPITFIRE LISTINE ITS A DREAM!! YOU HEAR ME JUST A DREAM!"
She shook her head afetr she stopped screaming and looked at me. Tears were streaming her face as she began to openly sob. I slowly pulled her into a hug and she accepted the embrace and huged back. She openly sobed loudly while i was trying my best to calm her down. I ran my hand through her mane as i gave her soothing noises.
"Shhhhh...its ok they cant hurt you anymore...shhhhhh its ok." I said just above a whisper to her. After a couple of minutes she slowly began to stop sobing. I then looked down at her as she looked up at me. Her eyes had pink rings around them and were puffed up a little bit. I wiped away the tears that were on her face.
"You ok now spitfire?" I asked her. She nodded and layed her head on my chest and continued to hug me. I huged her for a couple more mintues before i decided to get up and head towards my bed to get some sleep. But when i tried to get up i found out that spitfire wouldnt let go of me. I sat back down and asked her.
"Whats wrong spitfire?" I could see a small blush on her face as she looked up to me. Then she said something i would never excpect her to say.
"Jerry... i know this may sound wierd but...i was thinking if you could stay with me tonight? Like stay in the same bed as me?" Now as much as i hate to admit it some dirtly thoughts crept into my head but only briefly as i knew what she meant.
"You feel safer when im around you spitfire?" She nodded. I let out a long sigh. "Well.....i guess it wont hurt if i do. But just for tonight ok?" She looked at me surprised and huge me tighter. I took that as a sighn that she was happy. Then she broke the embrace as i got under the covers with her. She snugled up to me from behind.
"Thanks Jerry." She said in a whisper. A small smile crept on my face. "Your welcome spitfire." I whispered back. With that i fell into a deep sleep.
Then next day around 8:30 A.M.
I woke up to movement from behind me. Then it felt like wieght got off the bed. I turned and saw that spitfire had gotten off the bed and was stretching her wings. That was a good sighn if you ask me.
"Awake now arent we?" She stoped stretching and looked at me with a smile on her face. She then jumped back onto the bed. She gave me a hug as if to say thanks. I huged back accedently brushing her her left wing causeing her to twitch and gasp at the same time. She was blushing a little bit.
"Careful Jerry the wings on a pegeasus are sensative to touch." I understood. "Sorry about that. Then i looked down and saw that we were both still covered in dust and grime from the previous day. But before i said anything about it spitfire looked at me and said.
"Um...Jerry i think we both could use a shower." I nodded in agreement. So we broke the smal little embrace and got up to go to the two different showers. But then i remebered about my cloths i should wear. Spitfire was already in the shower so i went to the closet that was closer to spitfires bathrrom. I opened the doors and saw that there was camo shirt and longpants of course. Then i looked to my left and saw that spitfire didnt close the door completly and was humming a toone.
I did all i could not to look through the door but lost control and couldn't help but look through the door. I saw that through the steam from the hot water i saw spitfire standing under the showers water her face looking up at shower bed eyes closed while her tail and mane were completly flat from the water. Her fur seemed to glow in the sunlight bleeding through the window that was in the bathroom. Then she stopped the toone and i thought she knew i was staring at her.
I quickly looked away got my clothes and rushed to the other bathrrom and took my shower. After i was done i got out, dried off, and got dressed. I got out of the bathroom and went to the cloths shoot where i drooped my clothing. Then i turned and saw that spitfire was sitting on the coutch wtaching the chanel i left it on. The rommance chanle.
I walked over and sat down beside her seeign what she was watching. Something called "Ghost whisperer" i had no idea what that was so i decided to watch it. Half way through spirfire then rested her head on my shoulder. I didnt look and just continued to watch the show. A little bit later i then moved my arm around to her other side and rested it on top of the coutch. We both looked at eatchother, and she gave me a small smile before snugling up closer to me putting one of her forhooves on my chest and basicly laying on me.
Then we heard a knocking at the door. I got up as spitfire got off of me and i went to the door. I opened it and standing there was Anderson.
"Oh hey anderson whats up?" He smiled at me and said "Nothing much...but Cmdr.Earl wants to talk to you. Dont woory sarge wont be comeing this way anytime soon." I nodded as i looked back at spitfire and said "I'll be back and a bit. Hey anderson keep her company while im gone? Thanks cya." I took off not letting him give an answer.
When i got outside i saw Earl waiting for me along with the rest of my squad. I walked over to them. "Hey Earl." He nodded then talked to me about how command was allowing spitfire to stay as long i kept and eye on her. While we were talking i then realized that Sarge was nowhere to be seen.
"Hey wheres sarge at?" The squad looked at eatchother then at me. I realized he was going after spitfire. I turned and sprinted as fast as i could my squad and Earl close behind. We ran up the stairs and when we got to the room i saw anderson on the ground in a daze. I looked into the room and in horor i saw Sarge stading with a knife in his hand standing over spitfire who was in the corner of the room beging for her life.
"NOOO!!!" I sprinted then jumped forward in front of spitfire as the knife came down. I managed to stop it by grabeing his wrist twisting it causeing the knife to fall out of his hand. With my other hand i sucker punched him, got up and kneed him in the face and before he could react i broke his arm by twisting it and punching his elbow that was faceing the ceiling.
He fell to the ground in pain screaming in pain. In a couple of minites the MP(military police) came up with a medic who put sarges arm in a sling before he was hauled off to the brig. I turned towards spitfire who had her face buried in her hooves sobing in fear. I knelt down and place my hand on her shoulder. She looked up at me and imediatly huged me as if her life depended on it. I huged back careful to avoid her wings. Earl and the rest of the group left later to give us privacy.
A couple of minitues later she stopped sobing. I help her to the coutch before asking "Are you ok? Did he hurt you at all?" She nodded no. Felt like a huge weight was lifted off of my shoulders. I decided that if i was gonna confess i had a crush on her it was gonna be now. While i look back at it i realized it sounded preety stupid.
But before i could say anything spitfire decided for me. Out of nowhere spitfire kissed me. Not on the cheeck or on the forehead. But full on the lips. It only lasted a milisecond. I looked at her eyes wide in surprise. She was blushing wildly looking away.
"I-i-i'm so sorry i just didnt know what else to do...i guess you dont want to see me anymore." She looked at the gound acting ashamed. Now was the good time to tell her. I put my hand on her chin and i had her look into my eyes. Then i leaned foward closeing the gap kissing her. A few seconds passed before she started to kiss back. A few minutes passed before i broke the kiss. We looked into eatchothers eyes. I gave her a smile then i said.
"You dont have to be worried spitfire. I like you to." A few seconds passed in silence before she gave me a kiss. I kissed back. The kiss lasted a few minutes again. Then there was a knock at the door. We broke the kiss as i got up to see who in the world would be at my door this time. I got up and opened the door.
Standing there was Cmdr.Earl. I allowed him to enter my apartment. He entered and sat in the chair infront of the coutch. I sat down beside spitfire.
"Ok well i got some news about sarge. He's gonna be demoted back to Pvt. but stay in the marines. Now i know you think he should be punished more for assault and attempted murder, but thats what command decided. But look at it this way Jerry your no longer PFC.Jerry. I recomended you to be promoted to Sgt.Jerry and they accepted the advice. So tomorow you are to take comand of Alpha Squad." I just sat there surprised at what he just told me.
"Huh...well im not gonna argue of what they said. SGT.Jerry. I like that." Me and Earl shared a quick laugh. He left later on closeing the door behind him. I thought of what happened in the last fourty-eight hours. One minute im going on a mission the next im sitting beside somepony who i loved and was promoted to SGT. I loved the army sometimes.
The whole day i sat beside spitfire watching romance movies. One after another constantly we would sneak a kiss or two. When night time came it was time to go to bed. We both got up as i turned off the TV and went to the bedroom. Spitfire got into bed and i didnt hesitate to join her. She didnt seem to mind as i gave her a quick kiss goodnight. What was gonna happen tomorow i dont know but whatever happened as long spitfire was gonna be with me it was gonna be alright.
(Authors notes: OK i hope nobody thinks i rushed this part of the story at all and im still debateing on wither i should make a different part of the story where a clop scene happen and if i do i need to get a sexy pitcure of spitfire so if anyone knows where to get one or sends me one i will add it as the first pitcure of that story and give credit to you. Also im thinking what should i do with Sarge. Have him go in the same squad as Jerry or be in a different one. Well i hope you guys enjoied this chapter. It took me a bit since my eyes now hurt from being on the computar for hours non-stop. Thats how much i care about you guys. Well im off to get some sleep. CYA!!) *Passes out while on computar*
Chapter 7
Next day 8:00A.M.
I woke up before spitfire did the next day. I turned my head slightly and saw that she was snugled up to me on the bed and was holding me close. I smiled to myself that she was so conected to me and to think this all happened because of that one mission. I got up out of bed carefully so i wouldnt wake her up from her peaceful sleep. By the look of it i could tell she wasnt haveing another nightmare. But then as i got up i heard her whisper.
"Jerry" I couldnt help but chuckle to myself. I walked towards the window of the apartment and looked outside. Nothing new or interesting...except for something that looked familier. I went over to my gun locker and took my gun just so that i could look through the 4X scope. When i got back to the window i looked through the sights and nearly droped my gun out of shock. In the courtyard wasnt one but...seven ponies?
I ran out of the apartment keeping the door open hopeing that spitfire heard me rush out. I thought to myself as i ran outside 'How the hell did they even get here?'.
*******************************************************************
(Third person again)
The mane 6 all woke up the same way with the same feeling. It felt like.... Fear. Nopony could explain why but they all just wanted to go to the nearst corner of the room and cower in fear. But none of them did despite the fear that was starting to consume them. Twilight was the first to get out of this wierd feeling and sent a letter to Princess celestia.
Dear princess celestia
Today it has been four days since the wonderbolts seem to have gone and vanished. Today I felt and overwhelming feeling of fear in my stomach. I dont know if its anything bad, but im starteing to get worried about them and i was thinking if you could somehow feind a way to figure out where they are at.
Sincerly your faithful student
Twilgiht sparkles
Twilight sent the letter with her magic and went outside only to discover that all of her friends were there. She was surprised and within seconds Princess celestia arrived. Everypony looked at her surprised and bowed to her.
"My faithful student i recived your letter and your not the only one who is worried. Im afraid that somehow a portal was opened to another world...the world that nopony should go to...Earth." Twilight looked up with surprise. Only twilight and celestia knew about the world called 'Earth'. They think from what they saw that its terrible and death is everywhere they turn. Celestia and twilight went there once and nearly got killed from gunfire.
"So your saying that Spitfire and sorien are on earth? Thats not good oh not good at all. WAIT you dont think that the feeling we are feeling are from what spitfire might be feeling?" Celestia looked at twilight while the other ponies stopped bowing.
"Oh my...i think your right. Ok i know this may sound wierd but we have to go to that world. But if you six dont have to go if you dont want to. Plus it will take time for me to get enough energy to use my magic again...at least 24 days." Not a single pony decided to stay. Not even fluttershy. Celestia nodded as she got ready to use her magic and opened the portal.
"Ok here we go ready?" She looked at everypony who nodded. So along with celestia the Mane 6 followed her into the strange world.
************************************************************************
(Back to first person with Sgt.Jerry)
I stormed outside to the courtyard and i realized my mind wasnt playing tricks on me. There was indeed seven ponies one of them seeming to tower above the rest. They looked around clearly not seeing me as i began to slow towards a walk. I didnt know if they were gonna attack or talk peacefully. So to show them i mean no harm.
"Hey you seven HEY!!!" I yelled waveing my hand towards them. They all looked over at me and immeditly they got into a defence stance. They all snorted as if they were ready to charge. I then put both if my hands infront of me in defence.
"Whoa hey now lets not jump to conclusions. Look i know your probely afraid right now and i want you to know that i wont hurt you." I took off my rifle and placed it on the ground to show them i wasnt armed. The stance they were in lightened up a little. I slowly walked over hopeing that they wont charge at me. Then i remembered spitfire and how she said she was from Equestria and was a pony.
"You seven wouldn't happen to be from equestria would you? Because i know a pony thats here right now safe. Her names spitfire." Just like that they went from alert stance to confussed looks. I lowered my hands knowing that they wouldnt attack me now. But a thought got into my head. Why isnt anyone out here guns at the ready? But then something hoorifying happened.
"JERRY!!!" I turned and saw spitfire dangleing from my apartment window 7 stoies up. Holding her by a wing was none other than Pvt.Sarge. I imediatly started sprinting towards her. Sarge then yelled.
"THIS IS WHAT THIS FUCKING CUNT GETS FOR LIVING!!!!" With that he threw her down. Spitfire tried to flap her wings as fast as she could but couldn't do anything to fly up. I sprinted faster than i ever did before. Faster than i did yesterday when i was heading upstairs to the aprartment. But this time it was to save spitfire from certian death. She was now 10 meters from the ground. Certian death i wasnt gonna make it!!! Until i jumed foward just in time to catch her in my arms.
I slid across the dirt as it tore away at my shirt until i came to a stop. I looked down at spitfire who had her eyes closed. Was i to late did i not catch her in time?! My question was answered when her eyes slowly opened and she looked up at me. Tears started to well up at the corners of her eyes. I smiled as small tears of joy started to well up in my eyes. I pulled her into a hug which she returned.
"Thank god your ok spitfire...i thought i lost you for a second."
"I have you to thank Jerry." We sat there in an embrace of joy that spitfire survived. I heard steps from behind me. I turned and saw that it was the seven ponies from just a few moments ago. They all had a smile on thier faces telling me that they werent scared of me anymore. I could hear Sarge yelling at how much of a bastard i was and how come i even bothered to save spitfire. Of course thats what he would've said if he was in a better mood.
Then a thought came to my head: How on earth did sarge manage to get out of the brig? Soon i would have my answer. But for now i had to explain alot of things that happened here. Plus i had to comfort an overwhelmed spitfire that was in my arms.
(Authors Notes: Ok well heres yet another updat and i hope you enjoies it. So you know i was distracted with a song i was listening to while writeing this so its not that well done. Hoplefully i didnt ruin it by adding the things i did which might happen alot. Also thank you for all of those who gave me ideas and encouraged me to continue.
Rebelpony1997 who kept me encouraged to continue and helped me get some ideas from what he did and for offering to be my proof-reader.
Trot C. foxy hopefully i spelt it right. This commenter helped me with an idea for the story and thanks for encourageing me. And to several others that i didnt name.
A little something for Thebomb who is a good friend of mine and wrote the story "The forgotten soldier" which got me inspired to write my own fic. Go check his out and its his first fic he wrote like me. Also he gave me the idea to even write this story so give him some credit.
UNTIL NEXT TIME CYA ON THE NEXT UPDATE!!)
Chapter 8
"....and thats how spitfire ended up here at my base along with other marines." All of the other ponies just looked in surprise probely still trying to take in what happened and what they just heard. I was about to say something when i saw a glare and it wasnt the sun...it was a scope of some sort.
"What the hell.... OH GOD LOOK OUT!!!" I got up letting go of spitfire pushing the talles pony to the ground and jumping the oppisote way as the bullet was mere inches from hitting her cutting a little bit of her marshmellow coloered fur. I lande on the ground as the pther ponies began to panic running in all directions.
"GET TO COVER!!! DONT RUN OUT IN THE OPEN GET TO COVER!!!!" The ponies listene to my relief as they were now all behind good cover. Now i ahd to figure out where the fireing was comeing from. While doging bullets to get to my gun i looked towrds the glare and saw that it was sarge using an M14 with a bipod. That explained how he wasnt using both arms to aim at me. *ZZZZ ZZZZZZ ZZZZZZ* The bullets passed by me as i ran towrads my gun. I slid grabeing the gun aiming at the glare and fireing a burst. Then i felt a sharp pain in my left arm. I was shot.
But before i fell to the ground i saw sarges head bob back and forth a few times as i saw crimson fly out the back of his head. I knew then that he was dead but not without me getting hurt first. I hit the ground hard with a thud holding my left shoulder tightly.Then i heard the alarm go off finaly. Soldier came running out with guns at the ready. Anderson was the first to see me and was sprinting to my side.
Spitfire was already there along with the other ponies. I heard Earl yell "HOLD YOUR FIRE THEY ARE FRINDLIES!!!" I owed that old man one.
"JERRY WHAT HAPPENED JERRY PLEASE DONT DIE!!" Spitfire yelled tears streaming down her face. I just smiled as i place my free had which was hard since it was the arm that got shot on her face. She looked at me as i gave her a reqshureing smile.
"Don't worry spitfire its nothing serious beside..." I looked at my shoulder as i lifeted my hand. "Its really just a flesh wound." The bullet had only grazed my shoulder. Looked like lady luck was on my side. I sat up as Anderson got to me with a smile of relif. I looekd at spitfire who then huged me tightly. I huged back with my good arm. The other ponies looked around and the tall one talked first.
"Well looks like this world isnt as bad as it was when i last visited." Everyone went wide eye and at the exact same time they all yelled in unison.
"WHAT THE HELL!!!" I couldnt help but start to laugh a little. It was so comical that they said it at the exact same time. Anywasy Anderson was working on my flesh wound i recived from the bullet. Luckly all i need was some disinffectint and a bandage. All set to go basicly. Now was time to explain the whole situation to everyone in the base...god was i gonna need water.
*Several hours later*
"Thats how i came to have this wound. Does anybody have water i could drink my throught is a little dry." Anderson gave me a bottle of water. I thanked him with a nod and drunk the water. I looked down at pinkie pie. They all gave me thier names while i was talking. Pinkie pie was again trying to eat at the ammo clips i had in my pocket.
"For the last time pinkie pie it's not chocolite its ammo for my gund." She stepped away as if nothing happened. Then i saw her tail begin to twitch. Then it hit me... literly.
"OW!!! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?! I looked at what feel into my lap. A flower pot. "How the hell...ok now i think something strange is happening." We shruged it off as i got up letting go of spitfire as she let go of me. I looked over to where sarge fired from. They were carrying his body away towards the mourge. I wasnt gonna be charged for manslaughter since he fired on me first and i have seven witnesses. Even though none of them are ponies.
Now began the long task of trying to figure out where in the world was the other seven ponies gonan stay. As if reading my mind spitfire said. "They can stay in the apartment with us."
"Well.... tehre is enough room and we can always get more beds in there...fine i guess thats ok. As long as they dont bother anybody at all and cause a scene. The last thing we need is this whole place catching fire because of somepony who missed up on a spell." Everypony looked at Twilight.
"What?!" She asked in surprise. I just chuckled concludeing that she was the one that i would have to keep and eye on. Well so began the long days of makeing sure that nothing happened. The question was this: Will anything happen while they are here?
(Authors notes: Ok well just so you readers know i wrote this as i went along like i did with the other chapters. Plus its like midnight where i live so im exausted.

Chapter 9
4:30P.M.
"Pinkei pie dont touch that...oh god. No rainbow dash you cant fly inside a....building. Oh god well this isnt gonna go well with Earl." They were here not even for a day and they found the alcohol stash that was in the apartment. I learned something that day. Ponies can't hold liquir well and when they get drunk...shit happens. ALOT OF SHIT HAPPENS.
Rarity was useing her magic saying to herself how terrible the cloths in my closet were saying each one was worse than the last...even though they were all the same. Pinkie pie was using her party cannoen alot basicly causeing streamers and other party stuff to fly all around the apartment. Applejack was trying to Applebuck the wall which wasnt gonna last that long. Twilight was somehow assleep through this whole thing. Fluttershy was just walking back and forth in a drunken way. Finaly rainbow dash kept flying into walls causeing implants into the wall.
"Ok well spitfire something tells me im gonna get in a shit load of trouble." I looked down at her and she nodded in agreement. The only ones that didnt drink the liquir was spitfire and celestia. Then through all of the comosion i heard a knocking at the door. I walked over to it my left arm in a sling. Dont ask why. I opened it and standing there was Dixion,adam,and anderson. No earl in sight to my reilif.
"Hey Jerry um.... you need any help at all?" They all looked behind me and began to chuckle seeing what was happeneing.
"Yeah i could use some help...um just step in here for a second." So they did and i closed the door behind them. "and you might want to duck for a second." I could see the confusion in thier faces but as soon as they ducked rainbow dash flew over and did a faceplant on the door and fell to the ground. But she got back up and flew around like nothing happened.
"Ok um celestia do you have any ideas on what you can do to calm down the ponies? The reason is um my apartment is basicly going to hell." I said as i got up. Along with my friends.
"Well...yes there is you want me to use it?" Why on warth didnt she use it before. I face palmed in anger.
"Yes that would be delightful please use it." She noded and sunndely there was a large flash like a flashbang went off. I got up seconds later and saw that every pony was assleep. Even spitfire and celestia. Looks like it back fired on you to celestia.
I walked over to spitfire who was sleeping soundly. She hadn't gotten into the vodka which was all they had. Twilight started the whole thing and the sad thing was they all only had one drink of it. I picked up spitfire with my good arm and carrie dher to our room placeing her onto the bed tucking her in. When i turned around i saw that my friend were makeing 'DAWWWWW' faces and were pointing at me. I fliped them off causeing them to laugh a little. I kept my middle finger up for a couple of minutes until i got to the other ponies.
7:30 P.M.
Finaly we got them all into some sort of bed. Celestia being the hardest since she was the size of a fucking horse. Anyways i thanked my friends then they left the apartment. I was exhausted and took my arm out of the sling since it was getting tireing. I got into bed with spitfire and had to get infront of her since she felt more comfortable when she was behind me. I slowly fell assleep but was awokeing by the alarm as was the other ponies in the apartment.
"WHATS THAT!" Pinkie yelled putting her hooves up to her ears. I jumped out of bed and looked out the window then i turned around yelling.
"GET ON THE GROUND NOW!!!" There was an rocket from an RPG comeing straight towards us. I sprinted literly throwing them to the ground and jumped grabeing spitfire holding her close as the rocket hit..then another.
*FWOOOSH BOOM FWOOSH BOM FWOOSH BOOM FWOOOSH BOOM*

Chapter 10
My ears were ringing and i couldnt see straight. I looked around and by some mericale no one was hurt and niether was anypony. I looked down at spitfire who was shakeing again holding her hooves up to her ears. Then the ringing stopped but was repleaced by gunfire and screaming. I picked spitfire back up and ran over to where the other ponies had gathered up.
"OK WE HAVE TO GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE THIS APARTMENT IS NOT A BUNK-" *FWOOSH BOOM* Everything started to crumble around us. That was all they needed as they gallopped out the door along with my friends following in full sprint. I was right behind them. When we got to the lobby there was a bar where they could go behind and take cover. They knew this and got behind it. I followed placeing spitfire down.
"Ok now i know that its aginst your law where you live but....in this world its kill or be killed." They all went wide eye as i said this. I took out my knife i had on me at all times and palced it on the ground infront of them.
"Dont use this knife unless you have to ok?" I looked at them all and they gave me a slight nod. I looked at spitfire and pulled her into a hug. She immediatly hugged back holding onto me tight as if her life depended on it. I pulled away a little bit looking into her eyes and gave her a kiss. The kiss was broken when a sniper round nearly hit me. I ducked on instinct putting spitfire down. I got up and sprinted towards the exit and busted through the door.
I was wondering how in the hell did they manage to get this much firepower and my question was answered when i saw some of our F-18s in a dogfight against some Mig-21s. Russia had helped the insurgents for several months now and now they were helping attack us. I sprinted towards the armory where Dixon,Anderson,Adam, and Earl were getting their guns equiped.
"Ok well looks like we are in for a long fight." I said as i grabed my M416 withx scope and instead of a grip i got the one with an M203 25mm grenade launcher. We quickly got geared up as fast as we could got out and were ready to fight. Then everything was quiet. No guns or jets flying in the air and all we could hear was screaming of wounded marines.
"What the hell.... this cant be right. There should be mo-" *THUNK* *THUMP* We watched in horror as our Co Cmdr. Earl was shot squrae in the side of the head mixture of blood and crimson going out the side of his head. Some of it splashing onto my face body armor.
"MAN DOWN!!!" Anderson yelled as he ran over hopeing that somehow he would be able to save his life.
"ENEMY CHOOPERS IN THE AIR AND INFRANTRY UP FRONT!!" Yelled our spooter marine who was a sniper of our company. I looked in the sky and saw that they were droping paratroopers by rope towards the ground infront of the base while there was tanks and infrantry moveing up from the front.
I had to charge away even though i didnt want to leave the body of my friend Earl but i had no choice. I sprinted towards the front and immediatly started fireing at the enemy. Soon i was joined by the rest of the marines. Marines were takeing up positions everywhere where the enemy could and was attacking from. One after another enemy soldier died in my sights as i killed them.
About three hours past by before i realized we were about to be overuned. Then i looked at the radio holder and i was about to go over to him when a sniper round shot his head clean off.
"Damn it." I said alud as i worked my way over fireing at the enemy so often. We managed to gain control of the skies and took out most of the tanks but they still had more. When i got to the radio i looked at the poor kid. I knew him his name was Pvt.Micheal. Only nineteen just graduated from highschool.
I grabed the radio saying sorry to him feeling like i was ransacking his body like a scavenger. I got onto the radio and i heard a voice crack up.
"Base camp Bravo this is cobra 1,2,3, and 4 waiting coordanets."
"This is viper 1 and 2 awaiting orders." This was some miracle if we had four cobras and two jets here to support us in stopping the attack. I gave them the coordanates and they came in out of nowhere and literly it looked like a nuke went off when i saw all of the cobras unload onto the armor and the enemy. Then i personal radio came alive and i'll never forget what i heard. Before i left i also gave spitfire another radio that was connected with mine.
"Jerry....please come inside...please." That last please sounded like she was shakeing. I got up and sprinted inside the lobby wondering what happened. When i got inside i realized that one russian managed to get through but he was laying in a pool of his own blood face down with several stab marks all over him and the knife was sticking out the back of his head. I went over to the bar and all of the ponies were sitting there alive but shaken preety well. The bullets stopped and i heard cheers telling me we somehow managed to stop the surprise attack. I looked over to where i saw spitfire whos hooves were covered in blood along with some of her fur.
"Spitfire.....are you ok?" I walked over and knelt down in front of her putting my hand on her shoulder. She looked up at me long streams of tears on her face and little drops of her tears hit the ground with a 'plop plop'. She then slowly moved foward placeing her head on my shoulder and began to sob. I then wraped my arms around her running my hand up and down her back trying to comfort her. I then sat down completly while she wraped her forelegs around me.
"Shhhh shhhh its ok.....shhhhh...its over." I turned my head slightly to look at the other ponies. They just looked at us some of them tearing up even the princess. Then i noticed the cheering stopped then i looked and saw that most of the marines were looking at us. If it wasnt for me trying to comfort spitfire i would think this was wierd but i didnt. All i wanted to happen now was for spitfire to go back to where she belonged...even if it meant i would never see her again because thats how much i.... i love her.
(Authors notes: Ok well i have no idea how i managed to get this one done and i hope its good considering its not that long and it doesnt really talk about the ponies that much. Well i want to say i made a decsicion...i AM going to do a clop scene for this story BUT im going to have to make a deleated scenes fic and if anybody can help with that PLEASE either PM me or say so in the comments. Also i wonder if i had any surpriseing moments in the story and if so please tell me and if anybody have ideas just say so. I would like to thank the following freinds and readers who supported me and i know im repeating myself but they really helped me continue.

Im sure theres more but those are the ones i can think on the top of my head. Well thats all for now but like i said before i AM going to do a clopfic scene of this fic but i dont know when so hang in there. CYA!!!)
Chapter 11
It has been six days since the surprise attack from russia and there has been none since. We sent home our dead and wounded soldiers back to america. The hardest was Cmdr.Earl since he was like a father while i was in iraq. But the sadest time was when spitfire had to go back with celestia and the rest of the ponies. In thier world four days is one day in our world. So by thier calculations its been twent-four days. It was a tear filled goodbye.
"But i want you to come home with me." Spitfire said while we were huging sheding tears. I never sheded a tear since i was young...but i couldnt hold them back.
"I know i do to...but i cant my men need me here."
"But i need you!! What about us!!??" She screamed. I moved away far enough to look into her eyes that were filled with tears.
"I know spitfire but i want you to know that no matetr what happens and no matter where i am i will always think of you... i love you spitfire." I pulled her back into the hug.
"I love you to Jerry." Thats when i saw celestias horn glow a golden aurora, but she waited. I got up breaking the embrace while spitfire went back to the other ponies...but still celestia didnt use her magic yet. What was she waiting for? Thats when i felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned and saw that it was Anderson. He had a smile on his face.
"Jerry.... dont worry about us we can handle the russians on our own. No need for you to stay with us you can go with spitfire to where ever she lives. Hope you have a good life my close friend." He ended the sentence with a smile on his face along with all of the other marines on the base. I just stood there mouth agape surprised by this but also extremly happy. I turned to celestia as if asking her if i could go with them. She nodded with a smile.
I walked over to spitfire who was as shcoked as i was. I just picked her up kissed her and huged her tightly but not enough to hurt her. Then there was a bright flash then next thing i knew i was in the middle of a city like place that was WAY more colorful than what im used to and from what i looked like compared to the other ponies this was gonna need to get some getting used to. I put spitfire down as i looked around obseerving everything. I had no wepons on me at all so all i had was my desert camoflouge shirt and pants.
"Ok.....well im gonna need to get used to this place."
"Yeah...but i'll help you Jerry." Spitfire said standing on her hind legs now my hieght putting her hoof on my hand as i held her hoof. She got back down when i let go of her hoof and right when i did that some ponies got out of thier house and looked at me. They looekd at me eyes wide. I waved at them then one of them yelled.
"AHHHH ALIEN AHHH RUNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" All of the ponies went into thier houses and closed thier curtians and shades. I just stood there confussed as anybody could be.
"Ummm.... well looks like im not the only one thats gonna need to get used to this stuff."
"Hey wait...where's sorien at? Shouldnt he be here with us?" My back straightened at that question and i looked at spitfire who already had tears welling up in her eyes. Rainbow dash just had to ask that as soon as they got back huh?
"Tell you what rainbow dash if you and your friends can somehow gather all of the ponies and get them to sit through a speech i have i will tell you and them all everything that happened to sorien and what spitfire was in when i found her ok?" They all had a confussed look on thier faces but they nodded all leaveing to talk to the ponies. Same with celestia to tell her guards and sister. I went over to spitfire and crouched down in front of her placeing my hand on her shoulder. She looked up as i wped away a tear that went down her face.
"Its ok spitfire everything that happened and what we both saw will never hurt us nor anypony EVER again. You dont have to be there for the speech if you dont want to spitfire." She put a hoof up to where my hand was and smiled at me.
"No i have to go.... i have to be there to tell them im quiteing the wonderbolts." I wasnt surprised by this mainly because i had no idea what the wonderbolts were at the time. I smiled as we gave eachother a kiss and held it for several minutes.
8:00 P.M.
It was lunas night when me and spitfire arrived at the town hall where there was a stage for me to tell all of ponyville and cloudsdale i didnt mean them harm. Also i was there to tell them what happened to sorien which was gonna be the hardest thing to do for me and for spitfire to hear.
"With out furtur adoo we have a pony who was saved and returned back to equestira SPITFIRE!" Everypony hit the ground as it was thier way of clapping. Spitfire stepped onto the stage and went up to the speaker. She explained how she was going to retire from the wonderbolts and explained how she arrived at my world. When she was finsihed she addressed me to the mic. No pony clapped only stared in fright. I looked around them all and began to explain everything from when we got into the house to now.
They just stood there some of them looking as if they were gonna loose thier lunch. I looked at spitfire who nodded.
"And if you are wondering what happened to sorien well............in the house where i found spitfire he was......dead." I looked down as i said that not wanting to see what all of thier reactions were, but eventually i looked up and saw several teared filled eyes and when i looked at the mane six rainbow seemed to be sobing. I just looked at spitfire who had tears flowing down her face. I turned around and got off stage. I was wondering how were they gonna accept me into thier society.
3 Weeks later
I was eventualy accepted into ponyville. Not a pony was either mean or scared of me anymore. Heck i eve became great friends of the mane six. Also the CMC which gets me in troublw with them alot. SOmetimes i wish i didnt fall for the puppy eyes they could make. One time they thought they could get thier cutie marks in hair decien. Nope and i got hit with the evil eye AND the bill. Anywasy erverypony knew about me and spitfire. They said that they didnt care because anypony could love any species they want. Spitfire arrived at my house on day 22 of my stay in ponyville and i was surprised since she didnt tell me she was comeing. She was sitting on my couch when i sat down beside her.
"So whats up spitfire something wrong?" She just looked straight ahead blushing. I was confussed at why she was blushing. Then she explained why she came over.
"Well.... we have been together for a bit now and i was wondering if you would like to take the...next step." She blushed deaper and thats when i knew what she meant. I could feel myself blush a little bit. She wanted to go all the way tonight and i didnt know what to say. Then i summed up the courage.
"Only if you want to spitfire if your ready." She looked at me surprised i knew why. Then she scooted closer to me and leaned onto my shoulder. I wraped my arm around her and she looked up at me.
"Ok...um can we go to your room?" I smiled and nodded. We both got up and made our way to our room. Now was the time to express how much i love her.
(Ok well looks like im gonna have to make a deleated scenes fic so that this story can stay up. Well just so that all of you know i wont be updateing this fic until i get the other one in. Keep on the WTACH for my deleated scenes story and hopefully i'll get it done by tonight but not upload it until tonight. Again i would like to thank my friends you should know who they are and for you readers for keeping me motivated. Well hopefull my first clopfic will go well. ") CYA!!!)
(Ok well here you guys go my deleated scene from this fic.
http://www.fimfiction.net/story/37156/Strange-war-%28deleated-scene%29
Just so you know there is clop in it and just from what some people read it has 3 dislikes already. If you dont like it just please leave it alone thats all i ask. well im done with this fic and am going to do another one so wtach for it. CYA!!)
Ok I have come to a decision. I was asked to do a sequel for "Even a princess has feelings" and "Alien vs predators:Equestria nightmares" and I decided to do those two some other time. One person asked me to do a dead space one where either issac arrives in equestria OR one of the mane 6 arrive on the ishimura. Which one sounds better? Also I WANT my next fic to only involve romance and basicly no death also in human form. Just want to try my best at that kind of fic. So which one should I do? One of the mane six,sid charecters,or backround ponies? (Human form) I'll even do an OC that you guys might know since I don't know all of thier names. Has to be a feemale so you guys know and I got five days till school starts. SO what should I do? Like I said next fic ONLY romance so no:Sequels YET,dead space YEAT(maby since I see alot already made). Now next fic I want to do a romance with a human and pony in human form. Just request which one I should do and which ever one has the most votes i'll do. ANY charecter....except zecora not a fan of her sorry. Oh and has to be a girl. Well cast the votes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay i got some bad news here for some of you readers. Im probely not gonna be able to write anymore updates for about 3 days because i have a friend comeing over from arizona for 3 nights so please bear with me. Also about the story some of my friends that have read the story said that there should be more romance in it and if so how far should i go? Im leaving that up to you readers. Also also if there is any request for a deifferent story or for the story im doing now please PM (private message) me. Well thats all folks and i'll see you all in the next update.
Chapter 12
It has now been eight years since i last arrived in ponyville. Both spitfire and I had a child and her name is "Ashley" which is a butieful name. Turns out there cant me any forms of a human to be born in equestria only ponies or griffons and soforth. So ashley had to sighns of any human parts besides the obvious. Shes a pegasus with a purple fur and blusesh mane.
The memories of the war spitfire saw and what i did still haunt me to this day but i learned to live with them along with spitfire who learned to lived with them. We married three months before ashley was born and it was the happiest time of my life. Now there is bullies that are mean to ashley for haveing a human as a father, but she does what i taught her to do. Ignore them and not listene to what they have to say.

"Jerry i have some news."
"Whats that honey?" Jerry said as he huged his pegasus wife.
"Im pregnant!" Jerry stood there with a shocked smile on his face. He was overjoyed now that he was gonna have two kids. Of course takeing care of ashely was hard but now she would be a bigger sister and he was sure she would love that. Thus begins a new life for yet another edition to the family of Jerry and Spitfire.
