Final Mission (Johns POV)

(This version is better than the original one done through Jacksons POV and if you haven't already I suggest that you read the chapters before this.)

We were running down the long hallway like corridor that was in the secret like base that the predators used. Jackson was up front leading the charge him being caucasian, 6 foot, black hair, brown eyes,medium built and a scar running along his whole face. Where I was 5ft,11in., caucasian, medium built, blonde hair, and blue eyes. I had a scar running down my right eye. As we ran I could feel the heavy pounding of equipment on my back as it clattered same going for Jackson. Then he pointed to his upper right and yelled.

“JOHN, RIGHT SIDE!” I looked to where he was pointing and saw that there was an alien right there aiming at Jackson as if it was ready to shoot its acid.

“GOT IT!” I yelled in reply as I raised up my shotgun,took quick aim, and fired the secondary fire two shells going out at the exact same time hitting the alien making green acid blood blast everywhere. The alien screeched in pain as it fell off the wall and fell into the abyss. That’s when more aliens started appearing from everywhere shooting at us with acid and atop of that predators appeared out of nowhere shooting at both the aliens and us. Some luck huh? The bomb was at the center of the base. Jackson got to it first and started pushing in the buttons for it to detonate. I looked around and saw that we were gonna be surrounded soon.

“Ready John?” He asked looking up at me. I looked down and crouched beside him.

“Yeah....... I am.” Then with that I pushed the last number for detonation making the bomb disappear in an orange fiery flash. I felt myself get picked up and sent backwards with heat cascading all around me. My eyes were closed tight as I flew through the air.

But to my surprise I was still flying for a few seconds with air rushing past. I opened my eyes slightly and looked around but it only lasted for a second or two. For as soon as I opened my eyes I saw a bookshelf right there.

“Shit!” I yelled as I smashed face first into the wood. Now let me just say this getting a bookshelf to the face....hurts like hell! The books fell all over me as I was suddenly buried under them. I groaned slightly as I got up from underneath the books and stood up the books falling to the ground. I looked to my left and to my surprise I saw that it was Jackson standing up as well.

“Ugh...how in the hell did we manage to survive that kind of hell?” Jackson asked. Now of course I would be surprised mainly from how we survived a nuclear explosion but something else happened that tore me away from that.

“What are you creatures!” We heard a voice behind us. It sounded like a young girl yelled it. On instinct Jackson and I both turned around at the same time guns at the ready. But to my surprise and probably Jacksons we didn’t see another human or anything. But we saw a..... unicorn! I know my greek mythology so I knew what this...I guess ponies race was. Then five more figures appeared into view.

I just realized that they were standing in the doorway into the library like room. I took a quick second to get a better notice of my surroundings. I saw that there was bookshelves all over the place all covered by books. Plus I saw that there was a stairway near the back of the library like structure and lastly I saw a fireplace and a couch. I turned my attention back to the situation at hand.

“Jackson what do we do? Shoot them?” I asked. In my training and i'm sure Jacksons we were taught to shoot first and never ask questions. Then I saw what the other five creatures that joined into view. Two pegasi, another unicorn, and lastly two normal looking horses.

One was a lavender color with a black hair and tail with purple streaks going through it. One was marshmallow white with a purple hair and tail swirled around. Those were the unicorns. The two pegasi were the next two i saw. One was cyan color with rainbow hair and tail while the other was sunflower yellow with a light pink tail and hair. Lastly were the two normal horse looking creatures. One was an orange color with light orange hair and tail and strangely enough had a hat. The the last one was pink colored with dark pink tail and hair flat.

“No...put the guns down.” Jackson said. I looked at him with utter surprise. But he was the leader of the group so I did what I was told. I lowered my shotgun to the ground along with my pulse rifle that was on my back as Jackson did the same with his Pulse Rifle and sniper rifle. When we did this the orange horse and cyan pegasus quickly got in front of the small group at guard as if ready to fight. Both stroked the ground in anger and snarled. Jackson and I both put our hands up as I looked at Jackson. He pointed towards his pistol strapped to his right side. I nodded as I looked back at the group.

“Whoa there no need to get violent. See?” He said as we both took our pistoles out from our holsters and put them on the ground along with our other weapons. The two creatures that stood guard seemed to have lighten up a bit seeing that we can’t harm them anymore.....well with weapons that is we still got CQC (close quarters combat) training.

“Can you understand us?” Jackson asked. The two creatures were off their guard almost completely by now but still seemed ready to fight if needed.

“Can you speak?” I asked. They stayed quiet after that. Then the lavender unicorn stepped forward.

“Y-yes we can.” She said still a little afraid. Jackson and I still had both of our hands still up.

“Ok.....is it ok if we put our hands down?” Jackson asked. The unicorn nodded yes. I could easily see that the strange creatures were in immense fear right now. Even the two that stood guard seemed to have a slight amount of fear. When Jackson and I put our hands down we all just stood there in silence. After a few tense awkward moments I spoke up.

“Um..... I can tell that you’re all scared out of your minds right now but....we don’t even know how we got to...wherever this place is. So if you can understand us we aren’t gonna harm you all in any way we just want answers.” There was still a silence for a few more moments. Training and instinct was screaming for me to grab my gun and just blow all of those strange things away. But before I could do that the lavender one spoke up for once.

“Um....so do we. Maybe you can go sit on that couch over there and we can talk.” I could easily catch a sense of fear in her voice as it shook here and there. Her hoof pointed to a couch at the middle of the library like room her hoof shaking. Jackson and I did just that leaving our weapons on the ground behind us. As we walked the creatures were close behind and when we sat down they were about a few feet in front of us possibly three or four.

“So..... now can we get some answers?” I asked. The lavender one nodded her fear slowly and I mean SLOWLY leave her. As she spoke her voice shook a good bit here and there for awhile. She pointed to each creature naming them. I learn that Fluttershy was...well shy. The one called Rarity was a fashion designer which surprises me a lot. The one called Rainbow Dash was a loyal friend and a flyer also was a tomboy because of how she acts. Strange enough I always wanted to be a flyer in the marines but quickly changed to an infantryman for the marines.

The one named Applejack owned a farm called Sweet Apple Acres and she was always honest. The one named Pinkie Pie always loved to throw parties...and loved making friends. Yeah that seems different now because she had her mane and tail flat plus she just looked...well afraid of us. Lastly she named herself her fear almost gone but not completely. We found out that she was named Twilight Sparkle. Plus she was the student of some princess named Princess Celestia.

Then she went on to explain that we have arrived in some world called “Equestria” and that we were in the town of “Ponyville.” Yeah I think I would’ve freaked out right then and there if it wasn’t for the fact that Jackson was acting as if nothing was happening. So I thought that I should follow in his footsteps. She then finished with saying that they were all called “Ponies” so now I wouldn’t have to call them strange creatures anymore.

“So...your turns.” She said almost slightly intrigued. I looked at Jackson who decided to talk first.

“Well we are what you would call humans. We.....well live on this planet called earth where all the plants are green and healthy. There are billions of us and thousands of different races and cultures. We even have a big military. John and I are in a unit called the “Marines.” Now so you know once we joined the marines we were immediately introduced into a world full of death.” Jackson stopped to let that sink in. But as soon as death left his mouth the six ponies backs went straight eyes wide. I guess death was very rare here for them and seeing us acting as if it was something of no burden to us made it worse.

“Wait...you act as though death doesn’t bother you!” Rainbow Dash suddenly yelled. Jackson and I weren’t taken aback by this at all.

“Well that’s because we have been around death for maybe four to five years. We started at age 18. Do the math. We are around the ages of 22 or 23. Pretty young right?” He said.

We just sat there as the shock slowly left them so he could continue. This time he thought he could show them something kinda cool...well to us anyways.

“Here take a look at this.” He said reaching out his right arm where the sensor was attached to his wrist. To my surprise all the ponies looked at it with aw. Then Jackson pulled a dick move and turned it on by clicking it on. It made a loud BEEP noise making all the ponies jump.

“Damn it Jackson you really had to do that?” I asked slapping the back of his head. He just chuckled to himself while I looked back at the ponies.

“Sorry bout that he just had to do that for some strange reason.” I said. The ponies just shrugged...I think. Then I think the one called Applejack asked a question I was hoping she wouldn’t ask.

“Um...Ah hope ya’ll don’t mind me asking but how'd ya get those scars?” She asked. I let out a sigh as I decided to tell this story.

“Well.....Jackson got his from fighting one predator and I got mine from fighting a group of xenomorphs. Now let me quickly tell you what those two are. A predator is a species of very highly skilled hunters that have high tech weaponry and can turn invisible. All I know is that they have some sort of energy beam and blades as weapons. While a xenomorph is a... well alien that can shoot acid at you and has acid like blood. They use their second mouth,claws, and tail as deadly weapons. I should know.” I said pointing to the scar on my face. Then before I could continue I looked past the ponies and saw three others. One had a marshmallow like coat,majestic mane and tail that flowed through the air as if wind was going past it, and a crown. Same thing for the other one except she had blue mane and tail along with her coat.

The last one had pink coat and mane and tail. All of them having crowns. They all walked in and I knew that they were the princesses. This was gonna be a interesting day for us.
