Location ?

I hate my life right now. When we walked outside there was a carriage pulled by guard ponies, at the time I thought they'll just pull us there but as we loaded up Celestia's last comment made me realize what was going to happen. She planned it to. Made me sit in the middle on purpose so I couldn't grab on to anything. All I hear is the wind as I'm ducked down between to princesses trying in vane to find something to grab onto.

"Afraid of heights Wolf?" I hear Celestia say on the verge of laughing. Note to self Celestia is a big troll. Even on an alien planet the trolls still exist to be a pain.

"No but when I'm in a flying wagon that's being pulled by two ponies I think I have a right to be afraid. This is a death trap waiting to happen." I say still huddled on the floor. Hey it is a death trap and plus every time I look up ahead I'm staring right at the backs of to white Pegasuses. One of them will occasionally look back and wink at me while the other one laughs. So yeah it's pick on me time great.

"You need to relax. I've done this for thousands of years and nothing has ever happened before. Besides if you do fall we'll be able to catch you." Celestia said extending her wings. I sit back into my seat and take a deep breath. "See it's fine." She gives me a warm smile. All of the sudden there is turbulence and next thing I know I'm in Luna's lap. Celestia finally bursts out laughing while Luna gets a big smile on her face.

"Finally stallions start throwing themselves at me." Luna gives me a big snuggle that starts to crush my bones. "Tho has finally gotten a mate!" Luna says all happy and proud.

"Just kill me now please." I say being cuddled to death. Next thing I know they both start laughing.

"Okay Luna I think it's time to stop messing with him he is a guest after all." Luna lets me go and I quickly sit back into my seat. "You girls up there stop messing with him to please." Celestia gives a look up at the ponies pulling the cart and they sheepishly look away.

Luna gives me a pat on the back. "So are you still worried about flying?" She asks me.

"Not any more Ma'am. I'm more afraid of being messed with again." I reply honestly.

"Well Wolf I hope we didn't offend you with what we did." Celestia say giving me a worried look. Luna gives me a confident smirk.

"Sister he is a soldier. If harmless pranks offend him he is in the wrong job." Luna says giving me a wink.

"I'm fine with it Ma'am. Soldiers do dumb pranks all the time. Not that I'm calling you two dumb." I say hopping I didn't offend them. Be careful Wolf they're still leaders.

"You are a curios creature Wolf most ponies would've been upset at a joke played on them." Celestia says as she looks back at the mares pulling the cart. They try to make it seem that they weren't listening on on the conversation by looking any where but back at us. Next thing I know I'm being hugged to death again by Luna.

"Sister are you sure we can't keep him. He's way better than most of your regular day guard anyway. And if the reports are true a better fighter than them to." Luna says giving Celestia the puppy dog eyes. Even though I'm being crushed to death I still daw at it. Also I saw the guards give me an ugly look when Luna was done talking. Thanks Luna I'm going to get jumped by guards now when ever they get a chance.

"No Luna we've been over this before. He's still a soldier from another country. He can't join us he has to get back to his commanders. Plus it's not the olden days where you can keep some pony." Celestia say's sternly.

"The olden days where better." Luna says as she lets go of me to cross her hooves and pout.

"To be fair Ma'am I just appeared here and ran into the buffalo. I'm defiantly not on my planet any more. It's to nice here. There earth back home is a wasteland no matter if the bombs hit it or not." I say. They both look at me now.

"How did you get here then?" Celestia asks me. I shake my head at her.

"I don't know. I was patrolling the river banks then next thing I know I'm in a different desert." I say. What? That was a lie I just said. I was playing a game, went to bed and woke up here. I'm defiantly becoming someone else now.

"We'll look more into it once we get back to the palace. We'll have more minds to help find out." Celestia says as she starts to think.

"What where you looking for when you patrolled?" I hear Luna ask me.

"Any one that needed help or any threat, but It was mostly to make sure no Legion raiding partys crossed over." I say as she scoots closer to me.

"What is this Legion you speak of it doesn't sound so good." Luna asks as Celestia flicks an ear towards us.

"Their full name is Ceasers Legion. A warrior based society that loves to take slaves and brutally kills any that stands in their way. Who ever Ceaser is he based it off of the old Roman Empire that it to took slaves and did awful things but at least they brought new technology back then." I say as I look into the distance. "They're truly awful. When the bombs fell and humanity emerged from the wreckage most went back to a tribal society. Ceaser forcefully made tribes join him and thos that fought back where enslaved or killed and their children turned into soldiers worshiping the long dead god mars of war."

"That truly sounds awful. How do ponies deal with that life? " I hear one of the guards mare say.

"They either become part of the problem or we band together to survive and hope we make a better life out of it." I say to her. I look out into the distance to see a town on a mountain. Great even more heights. "Is that where we're going?" I ask. Everyone shakes themselves at of there thoughts.

"Yes. The capital of Equestria, Canterlot. We'll talk more over dinner. I'm sure you'd like to spend more time with Misty." Celestia smiles at me.

"How do you know I care about her?" I ask her.

Celestia winks at me. "O I have my ways...."

Just then Twilight Sparkle Sneezes.
