Chapter 1:The Battle of Little Big Horn

BANG!!

The single gunshot was followed by an entire other line of gunshots. A line of arrows from the Sioux warriors replied,not as loud,but just as furious.Several men were hit by the arrows,The arrows pierced their skin and blood followed the piercings.The wounded men let out screams on pain as they were hit. Custer wasn't going to lie to himself,these Sioux were tough,But he had seen worse at Bull Run. Lieutenant James Calhoun,a good man, approached Custer. "Sir!" he gave a salute,Custer responded with a salute "Were being massacred sir,the Sioux,there's....there's just too many of them".

Custer knew it was truth,he would have brought more men,if he only knew. Custer thought it was going to be an easy campaign at first,Round up the run away Sioux and bring them back. He did not anticipate a full scale battle,more importantly he did not expect this many Sioux warriors. He knew if he didn't do something so,either the Sioux would kill him or he would lose his reputation in an embarrassing defeat.Suddenly an idea hit him, "Lieutenant,order your remaining men to charge".

The Lieutenants face dropped, "I beg your pardon sir?"

"You heard me were going to charge em" Custer replied.

The lieutenant replied "That's suicide sir, they'll shoot us up with arrows"

Custer then looked his lieutenant in the eye 'No....they will most likely charge back at us,because they too are running low on ammunition as we are, so they will charge too".

The lieutenant knew his commanding officer was stubborn and what not change his mind. So the lieutenant did a salute and said "I will gather my remaining men for a charge,please promise me you'll back us up".

Custer then responded with a salute and said "I promise Lieutenant".

The lieutenant then left to go be with his troops.Custer then turned his head and saw his men gathering up.He then looked down and checked to see if his revolver was loaded,It was. "I think it is time" whispered Custer to himself. Custer then drew his sword "Gentlemen,we are the United States Army!! We defeated the British nearly a century ago! We defeated the Confederate Rebels of the South in Virginia! We shall not lose,NOW.......CHARGE!!!!"

The men all began to yell as they rode their horses and ran alongside their commanding officer. Their yelling was responded by with the yelling of the Sioux warriors also charging.And a few seconds later both sides clashed.

BANG!!!
SLASH!!
FWEHP!!!
BANG!!
AHHHHH!

These were the sounds that surrounded Custer at the moment. He pulled out his revolver and began shooting,It was hard to shoot cosnidering he still had his saber in his other hand.He looked around him, he saw the lietunent from earlier with his revolver shooting at an Sioux warrior.Suddenly then a Sioux warrior came up behind the lieyenannt and stabbed him in the neck with and axe. Custer began shooting at the warrior,He then turned around.

FWEHP!!

An arrow hit him in the chest.He felt it pierce his chest.Custer let out a yell "ARRRGH!!". He then fell to the ground,in the most pain he had ever felt. Custer knew it was the end,So he began to close his eyes for what he believed to be the last time. Custer felt as though this was the end,But in reality it was the beginning of something else.

Chapter 2:A new world

Custer was lying on the ground, same position as he had been when he was shot. Custer began to regain conscious, he noticed something different, he was no longer in pain.The piercing of the arrow had all but disappeared,There was something else different too,He was in a grass field with a slight breeze blowing over him.Also there was no more sounds,It....It was peaceful.There were no U.S soldiers, no Sioux warriors, no guns,no arrows,no death. Custer knew he was no longer in Montana,But where in the heck could he be?

There was only one thing to do in a situation like this, explore. So Custer managed to finally get up on his feet,He.......he felt fine,No he felt better then he did before.It felt as though he had never got shot with an arrow. He began to look around now,he first looked at his chest.No wound what so ever. What was this? Maybe he survived the battle but the Sioux took him and drugged him,or maybe some Canadians from up north came and took him.

Custer then out of the corner of his eye noticed his belongings on the ground. His sword,his revolver, and his hat. He picked up his hat and put it on his head,for his revolver,he carefully placed it in its holster,He then stuck the sword through his belt. Custer was ready to go!

Custer began to walk,he found a path and began to follow it. This was proof he was in a civilized area not some savage barbaric land.So Custer began walking,It must have been six miles before he decided to take a rest. He sat down and took in a few deep breathes.

He then heard a noise off in the distance, it was faint, but could still be heard. The noise became louder,somehow Custer knew he heard these sounds before. He then recognized the sound, Hoof-steps! Custer thought to himself "If there's horses and trails, there must be people". So Custer decided to follow the sounds.

As Custer neared closer to the sound he could hear voices. Custer was beginning to become more positive, Sure he had no idea where he was or how he survived Little Big Horn, But at least he could talk to people and get some answers. He eventually reached the voices,The hoof-steps also stopped. Custer then noticed a large tree fort in front of him. "Damn they must keep their horses up there, very different to America" thought Custer to himself. The voices then continued in the tree fort. Custer then took in a breathe,fiddled with his mustache,made sure his uniform was straight, and finally adjusted his hat. Whoever these new people were he had to look formal.

Custer then began slowly heading up the stairs. They creaked a lot each time he stepped on them, He noticed each time he got farther up the voiced would become quieter. Eventually the voices just stopped,So did Custer.

"Hey!!" said a younger females voice "Who's out there?"

Custer began speaking and walking up the stairs "Hello there, My name is George Armstrong Custer, I am a Lt Colonel in the U.S army,I lead the 7th Calvary regiment and I was wondering if you could help............".

Custer was stopped dead silent, In front of him was a group of young horses, no scratch that ponies. One had green eyes and a rainbow mane,she also had wings.Another one had a horn, a styled purple mane and had blue eyes. There were 3 more that looked exactly the same,but were different colors.

"What in the name of Manifest Destiny!! When did horses have extra parts and more importantly WHEN COULD HORSES TALK?!"

The blue one then replied "Actually sir, were ponies". Custer then lost all consciousness and fell down the steps.

His last conscious thought "What the hell is this place? And whats going on?"

Chapter 3: (Earlier) Meeting at the clubhouse

Prism was beginning to get sick of it. Sure the gala is a big deal, but it was the only frickin thing Gemstone would talk about. Well when life through you potatoes you make potato salad, or something like that.

Well Prism couldn't lie to herself , the gala was exciting, but she didn't repetitively talk about it."Oh and then I'll do this and then....." that was of the various Gemstone quotes.

After another round of Gala quotes Prism had enough, she decided she needed to speak up. Her friends ,the tri pies, weren't going to, she had to. She then boldly asked "Gemstone, could you PLEASE stop talking about the gala, I'm excited too but the topic is starting to become very annoying".

Gemstone then sighed "Alright...I'll try to refrain, but you just don't understand how excited I am".

Prism and Gemstone didn't usually see eye to eye,they often argued,it used to be worst though. It had somewhat gotten better,but were still pretty bad.But on the bright side the journey was complete,because at that given moment they had arrived at the clubhouse. The clubhouse had been around for a long time. Originally belonging to Prism's aunt Scootaloo, who handed it down to her older siblings ,Lightning and Thunder Dash,who have handed it down to her and her friends.

So they went in and did what they usually did, talked about gossip, events, siblings, school, and various other subjects. The tri pies were as crazy as ever, doing their usual shenanigans. At least half an hour passed before something abnormal began to happen. They heard steps outside,not hoof steps,but something different.

Cherry began to whisper "I think some pony is outside!"

Prism then responded "Well no duh, does any pony have any idea on what we should do?"

Raspberry and Blueberry looked at each other,shrugged,and then looked back. Gemstone then said "Honestly Prism,I think you should think of something, you are "the club leader""

All four fillies then looked at Prism.She swallowed and whispered back "Ok i got an idea!"

"Hey!" shouted Prism "Who's out there?!". The fillies remained silent for a few seconds.

An older male voice than replied "Hello there, My name is George Armstrong Custer, I am a Lt Colonel in the U.S army,I lead the 7th Calvary regiment and I was wondering if you could help............"

Suddenly before the 6 fillies stood some type of creature, He was wearing a blue jacket with boots,he had blondish beard and hair,he had a red tie like thing around his neck,and he wore a blue large brimmed hat.The creatre stared at the fillies and it he stared backed. He then said "What in the name of Manifest Destiny!! When did horses have extra parts and more importantly WHEN COULD HORSES TALK?!" .

Prism then replied "Actually sir were ponies". The creature then began to wobble around. He then fainted and slid down the stairs of the clubhouse.

Raspberry then remarked "WOW,that was weird,what was that thing?"

Her sister Blueberry then replied "Yea, I mean we have seen some pretty Odd stuff in our life times"

Cherry then intervened "YEA!! Like Screwball dating that changeling or whatever! and that time......"

Gemstone then interrupted "That's great all in all, but WHAT are we going to do with....with this monster?"

Prism then looked at the creature,then looked back up at her friends. "We need to tell our parents about this thing,they'll know what to do with it".

Raspberry then replied "Yea I like where you are going BUT one problem, what happens if this creature gets up and leaves when we are gone".

Prism then sighed "That's true, anyone have ideas?"

Cherry than replied "Ooooo i have an idea,we take the creature with us"!

Prism had no better ideas so she just agreed with Cherry. She thought to herself "Its going to be one of those days"

Chapter 4: The Long Haul

It must have taken awhile, but the six fillies managed to do it, they had dragged Custer's body to sugar-cube corner. "I feel I should go in first" said Prism. The other five didn't argue it,so Prism opened the door.

DING,DING went the little bell on the door.

Much to her surprise Prism saw her older siblings and their friends in front of her. Prism knew Lightning and Thunder's friends a little bit,they use to hang out when they were younger. Their names were Screwball( the crazy chaotic one),Dinky Doo (The funky and clumsy one),Cinnamon sticks (the somewhat responsible one,adopted) Apple Blossom (The really responsible one) and that changeling,who's name always escaped Prism's mind. It was Moth something,Mothfuzz,Mothwheel, something like that,But that wasn't important right now.

Prism saw this opportunity as a blessing or a curse, a blessing because they could probably help her, or it could be a curse because they wouldn't believe her and taunt her. She began slowly heading over. It finally happened.....

"Hey look Thunder,it's squirt,hey squirt!" said Lightning Dash

Prism quietly replied "Hey sis...."

Thunder Dash then intervened "Yea what are you doing here, I thought you and your friends were at your little club house"

"About that......Its a bit of a long story it sort of like........." Prism suddenly became interrupted by a noise outside.

Then out of nowhere Gemstone and the Tri-Pies came in, terrified expressions on their faces. "Cherry,Raspberry,Blueberry and Gemstone what happened?"

Cherry began stuttering "It.......It....It woke up!"

Screwball,one of the older mares, then asked "What woke up?". All the older ponies nodded their heads in agreement.

Apple blossom then asked "Is something dangerous happening? What even in the hay are you talking about?"

Suddenly the doors swung open,the creature had emerged,He was wobbling around and rubbing his eyes. It then yelled in a roaring voice "God Damn Lieutenant Calhoun,I just had the strangest dream,I was in a world where horses TALKED, Absurd right?".He was done rubbing his eyes and could see again,he then noticed the confused and somewhat scared ponies in front of him. "Well then........I guess it was no dream.......If you all speak English...I...er....think we should try communicating".

Lightning then blatantly asked "What do you mean speak Enjish,or whatever you called it? we only speak one language around here".

"And where might exactly here be?" asked Custer

"Why your in Equestria,the land of magic and friendship,the town you are in currently is called Ponyville,its small but nice town" said Ditzy Doo

Cinnamon sticks then asked "And where are you from exactly? Because we don't often see creatures like you around here"

Custer then answered "I'm from the United States of America and not to be rude, but horses don't commonly talk to humans where I come from. Also have horses always been able to talk around here?"

"I already told you,we are PONIES,not horses,and we've always been able to talk" asked Prism

Custer thought to himself "As absurd as this is,you must communicate with them,they are clearly civilized,but how? Maybe they have the answers."

"I never really got to introduce myself,My name is George A Custer, I am a Lt.Colonel in the U.S army,mainly cavalry though.Well enough said about me,what are all your names?"

And one by one the ponies began introducing themselves to this mysterious "George A Custer".
