"What. The. Fuck."

Three tiny little words that told the complete absurdity the group of people found themselves in. They were surrounded, in a broad sense, by buildings that were were shorter then human standard, all of which were pearly white in appearance. The group looked around to all the eyes and faces staring back at them,  all of them wide with fear and shock.

Though the citizens of the strange city were shocked and disturbed, the group was a little bit more perturbed. Surrounding the group were myriads of ponies; Pegasi, Unicorns, and Earth Ponies stood and flew all around the confused humans.

Faster then anybody could react, the whole scene erupted into pandemonium. Ponies everywhere began to run and scream away from the humans. A few mares shut their doors quickly, children hid behind the nearest buildings, and a few stallions tried ushering more ponies into stores and shops.

Then, out of nowhere, the whole group found themselves held at bay by ponies dressed in a sort of golden armor holding spears towards them.

"This is not happening." A man of average build in a military cap said. He unholstered his pistol and pointed it at a guard on his left. Two other humans took defensive stances, with one unsheathing a rather large looking sword. The last human only glared at the guards. The scene turned from chaos to a stalemate almost quicker then a blink.

"Stand Down!" a commanding voice bellowed from a pony dressed in purple armor. The pony, a unicorn and probably commander walked to the group of people. His eyes held determination and knowledge.

"Ten bucks this guy's an asshole." The male in the hat muttered.

The commander, Shining Armor, stopped before the surrounded bipeds, looking over each of them with a critical eye.

'The one in the hat seems to be their leader, The small one is probably a child of his, the hooded one seems the most dangerous, and the other might be some sort of magical proficient.' Shining Armor thought.

"What in Celestia's name are these?" he asked. Getting no response from the guards, he cleared his throat, and gave the humans a stern glare.

"I don't know if you can understand me, so I'll ask this slowly. Who. Are. You?" He slowed his question, hoping to Celestia that the group of mysterious creatures would understand.

"I can speak perfect fucking english, dude." The man in the hat said. He turned his head to to the other people. "Don't know if they can or not."

"I can speak english too, motherfucker." The short girl said, giving Shining Armor a glare rivaling the older man's.

"I do not know what "English" is," Said the man in the hood behind the first. "But it must be something close to standard, as I can understand you clearly."

"I can understand all of you as well," The tall woman with the large broadsword replied. She sheathed her sword, but continued to glare. "Now, Please, call your guards off. I do not wish to hurt anybody."

Shining Armor glared.

"I can't allow that." He said sternly. "I must take you to princess Celestia immediately. Any questions will be from her.  And anything you should ask should be directed towards her."

He motioned a hoof to a guard, who nodded quickly and attempted to jab at the man in the hat to walk towards the palacial structure behind him.

"Hey, the fuck you doin'?" He said. "Keep jabbin' me with it, and I'll shove it up your ass!"

The guard ignored him and jabbed again.

Almost immediately, the man in the hat grabbed the guard's spear shaft and wrestled ot easily from his grip. The man's other hand, holding the pistol, fired a round into the dirt at the guards feet. The frightened guard fell backwards, and the whole scene erupted into pure anarchy.

Shots were fired, Lightning struck everywhere, Shouts were yelled; it looked like a warzone there. Guards, either fueled by fear of some sort of duty, rushed the group of humans with the intent to kill.

"Will all of you PLEASE! STOP! FIGHTING!" A booming voice yelled into the chaotic scene. Everybody froze, and all eyes turned to see the source of the voice walking ever so slowly towards all of them.

Princess Celestia stopped before the large mass of bodies, a rather stern look on her face. Shining Armor bowed, along with all the other guards

"Princess Celestia!" He said. The princess gave a glare to everyone in the vicinity, letting it linger on the group of humans.

"Captain, Who are they?" She said, pointing a hoof to the people.

"We....we don't know." He said, rising to his hooves. "One moment we're on patrol, the next, these....things show up and make the city start panicking, we were trying to detain them and bring them to you."

Princess Celestia continued to stare at the people.

"Hmm, Interesting." she turned her gaze to Shining Armor. "Set up a perimeter, I want to speak to them."

Shining Armor nodded and motioned for the guards to carry out the order. Meanwhile, Celestia slowly approached the strange humans.  She stopped in front of the rather intimidating one shrouded by a hood.

"To answer a question you have yet to ask, I understand you perfectly." the hooded man said, making Celestia get a little cautious.

'Well, that skips that part' she thought.  "Who are you then, and why are you here?"

The hooded man paused.

"My name is Dimitri Saminov, and...I do not know why I am here." He said. The other humans looked towards Celestia.

"My name is Illyana the Feared." The tall woman with the broadsword said. "I am the dragonborn. I am destined to destroy the World eater Alduin." She paused. "And I have no idea where I am right now. Nor do I know these people."

The man in the hat stepped forward arrogantly.

"The Name's Chris Michaelson, and I ain't got a fucking clue where the hell I am?" he said, Making Celestia cringe at his foul language. She looked to the shortest human there and bowed her head to meet her eyes.

'She's probably just a confused and lost child. I should be really gentle here.' she thought. "Hello, What's your name?"

"Piss off."

Celestia frowned, taken slightly aback by the girls rude attitude.

"Now, I only want to know your name. I don't want to hurt you." she said. She only received a glare in response.

"My name's Anna, I'm thirteen years old and I like to kick people's asses." she said. She looked up to the others. "And I have no fucking idea who these people are."

"They're not you're parents?" Celestia asked.

"Nope. Don't know a single motherfucker here." Anna shrugged. "I'm just as confused as everyone here.

Celestia pressed a hoof to her forehead, barely suppressing her frustration.

'Something tells me these things are going to be a pain in my flank soon.'
