PJ woke up quickly feeling his body over wondering how he was alive, but when he lifted his hands he noticed that instead, he had hooves which were the same color as his brass knuckles? He quickly turned his head to check his flank it showed a punching bag with a horseshoe slamming into it.

"Hmmm, my cutie mark is exactly what I thought it would be." PJ nodded his head. "Ok let's see now." He took a look at his surroundings and all he saw was a forest. "Ok if I had to guess Everfree."

He then got off the ground started walking straight... turns out it wasn't that hard to walk on all fours. After walking for a few hours making sure to be as quiet as possible he soon made his way out of the forest without any problems. After walking a little more flowing the trail that leads to Ponyville, he soon found himself in front of the tree that he remembered all throughout his younger years.

He stepped forward and was about to knock on the door when Twilight Sparkle opened the door. She was not looking at him, but instead, she was talking to a baby dragon behind her.

"Ok, Spike I am heading out to go see the princesses," Twilight stated.

"Ok Twi have a good day," Spike replied back.

Twilight then turned around to see a stallion that she had never seen before. He was tall, a little bit taller than Big Mac and he had a very muscular build. His mane and tail had a color that looked like iron though it was a little darker and the same goes for his hooves. His coat was a charcoal black and he had flaming red eyes that stared into your soul, she shivered a little after just barely looking into his eyes.

PJ just coughed to get her attention. "Sorry, I was looking for somepony named Twilight Sparkle?"

Twilight got out of her stupor with a shack of her head. "Yes, that would be me, is there anything I can do for you?"

PJ nodded his head. "Yes is it ok if you can let me talk to the princesses?"

Twilight looked at the stallion with confusion. 'Why would this guy need to talk to the princesses?'

"Um, can I ask you why do you need to talk to the princesses?" Twilight asked the stallion.

"I want to ask them if they could help me return home," PJ replied honestly.

'Seriously?! Just cause he doesn't know where his home is?!' Twilight thought for a minute.

"Are you sure, that you need their help?" Twilight asked.

"Yes, my home is far away, like really far away." PJ nodded.

"Is it on the Equestrian map? Or is it even on this continent?" Twilight asked.

PJ just shook his head.

Twilight frowned at this. "Ok, just follow me then." She then started walking towards the direction of the train station.

PJ followed her walking on her right side.

"Oh, by the way, I never got your name?" Twilight asked as they walked.

"Steel Hooves," PJ stated.

'Steel Hooves, huh? If I remember correctly steel is a strong metal that you get from combining iron and charcoal? The Griffins had been using this metal for years, but we just barely started making any. I wonder if maybe he is from the Griffin continent?' Twilight thought as they continued walking towards the train station in silence.

"Twilight?" Steel asked.

"Yes?" She replied

"Your a princess, but you don't have that many guards, why is that?" He stated.

"Well, there aren't that many ponies that will try to cause problems in Ponyville, but if there is me and the other elements could handle it," Twilight stated with a smile.

Steel nodded his head as he continued walking in silence.

They got on to the train without any interruptions. They took their seats and just sat there patiently, however after the train started to climb through the mountain Steel and Twilight could hear screaming coming from the rear of the train.

"What is going on?" Twilight stated looking a bit concerned.

Just as the conductor went to go see what was happening a changeling burst through the window a few seats ahead of them. The changeling instantly started to attack the other passengers. Steel took no time and quickly closed the gap in an instant before slamming one of his heavy hooves into the face of the changeling. You could hear a loud crack just before the changeling's head exploded spraying green blood and chunks of flesh all over a section of wall in the train car.

'Holy shit! It just exploded like a crushed orange!' Steel thought in surprise before turning back to Twilight just to see that she had a face full of shock.

'How did he make the changeling explode?! Applejack kicked those things before, but they never exploded?!' Twilight thought before she shook her head. 'No time for that the changelings are back we need to warn the princesses!' Twilight got off her seat before she started to focus her magic so she could place a barrier around the entire train, to prevent any more changelings from getting on. "Steel! I need you to get rid of the changelings already on the train, I going to form a barrier so that no more can get on!" Twilight stated as she continued to focus.

Steel soluted before he headed off to fight the other changelings that got on the train. The next car had about 6 changelings in and the ponies were having a hard time defending themselves. Steel turned into a blur before he slammed his hooves on all 6 changelings, a second later they all exploded just like the first changeling. He then went to the next car 12 changelings this time, he made easy work with them as well. 'Why are these guys so weak?' He thought as he went to the next train car.

After clearing a few more cars, the changelings were starting to get bigger and this time they took 2 hits to kill. 'Guess these ones have more chitin on them or something.' He shrugged and continued on.

When he got to the last car there was one changeling that was way bigger than the rest, but it wasn't queen Chrysalis?

"What are you?!" It demanded with a hint of terror in its voice, it was also a little feminine.

"What am I? Well, that's easy I'm just a boxer and it's punching time." Steel smiled evilly at the changeling queen.

The queen shivered from that smile, fear taking over her body. There were about 40 changelings with her in this car, but she still felt fear, she could feel the great power coming off of the stallion.

Steel turned into a blur once more slamming his hooves on all of the changelings except the queen. They all exploded covering the queen in their blood and guts. Her legs then gave out and she fell to the floor falling unconscious from shock and fear.
