The Smiling Warrior

"We are seriously linked to this guy, Are you kidding me?" Said a distant voice ending with a growl.

"Oh don't be such a picky baby he's literally the first creature in a couple centuries not to blow up from the power we put out." A different voice stated. This one more higher pitched.

As Jack began to regain consciousness, He could tell both were male but couldn't see them just yet. As the blurs continued to argue between each other Jacks vision finally focus. " Ow, my head." He whined, holding his head. "Feels like I got hit with a sledgehammer."

"Well you might as well have with how hard she hit you." One of the characters in front of Jack replied causing Jack to look up.

What he finally registered was a tall thin rabbit looking man with a smile on his face and lion who did not look the least bit happy at Jack in front of him. "AAAHHHHH! Who the hell are you guys" Jack shouted trying to back pedal but bumping into the wall.

The tall rabbit winced "Mind not yelling to loud I got sensitive ears." He asked rubbing his long fluffy ears. "And to answer your question, I'm Lucky and this grump old cat is Brave. We're your new roommates up here." He said tapping the side of his head with a smile.

"Wait, you guys are inside my head?" Jack asked calming down seeing as they weren't attacking him.

"Are you even listening to us." Brave snarled, Baring his teeth at Jack. He stopped though after a moment to breath and calm himself back down " It's just we are in a bad situation and I'm not in the mood to deal with Luck's attitude."

Looking around Jack started to notice he was in a room similar to a hospital ward. "Where am I?" He asked, noticing some beeping machines.

"A hospital after your fight with the manticore and getting punched.' Replied Brave "Though we wouldn't be like this if Lucky could have made you faster." He said shooting a glare at the rabbit in question.

"Me?! It's your fault for not making him strong enough to beat up the monster faster. Lucky shot back after taking a moment to put a hand to his chest and making an offended face.

"Hold it!" Jack shouted already knowing another argument was about to break out if he didn't get between them. Putting on his best smile to calm them down he asked " How about we start from the beginning. I barely know you guys and i'd like to at least know who the people sharing my head now are."

Giving a humph to Lucky, Brave looked at Jack"We are Omegas. Ancient spirits that find new hosts to make new heroes for the gods like the one that sent you to this new world." He stated "I am one such Omega that specializes in strength and fighting while THIS toothpick specializes in speed and agility." gesturing over to Lucky.

"Together we make the best heroes around. Our last one being a guy named Hercules from your world." Lucky added with a wave of his hand, fading into nothing.

"Next time we meet training will start so we can avoid an incident like the manticore." Brave finished with a frown, crossing his arms as he faded away.

Jack snapped towards the noise to see a white colored creature in a nurse outfit walk towards him. She looked to be about 5'5" with pink hair in a somewhat tidy bun. "Hm, kind of cute." Jack thought taking in her average figure. What really caught his attention were the large guards following behind her in gold armor. "Am I that scary that guards are needed Miss?" Jack asked putting on his best "I'm innocent" look to hopefully not scare them.

"Oh you can talk?" The nurse said with a start. Even the guards showed signs of surprise on their faces before going back to stoic statues "My name is nurse Red Heart. I'll be checking your vitals and see how you are doing Mister..." she said trailing off at the end leaving an opening for me to reply.

"Jack, Jack Teller. It's a pleasure to meet you." Jack said sticking his arm out for a shake before pulling it back quickly when the guards reached for their weapons. "Sorry, sorry I guess it is weird to see someone like me around." Jack added with a weak chuckle rubbing the back of his head.

"And what exactly ARE you Mister Teller?" Red Heart asked looking over the machines strapped to Jack and giving him a look over ignoring the guards reaction.

"I'm a human Miss Red Heart and you can just call me Jack. No real need for formalities with me." He replied "Could I ask the same question of what you all are?"

"Why, I'm a pony and you can call me Red Heart dear." She said all while undoing Jacks bandages to see how his wounds were coming along. "Ah good your wounds are all healed and there appears to be no scaring either. Your body reacts well with magic even if the doctors had to use a little more to actually affect you." She stated with a satisfied nod of her head.

"So does that mean I'm clear to get out of this bed then? Or do I have to get the go ahead from the guys behind you?" Jack asked looking at them.

Finally after a moment of waiting one of the guards replied " The princesses will be notified you are awake and they will decide what happens next."

"Wait, princesses as in royalty. Oh I do NOT look good enough. I haven't even had a bath yet I probably smell horrible!" Jack shouted worry written all over his face. He began to look around as well after he noticed he was only wearing an admittedly breezy gown. "Um, Miss where are my clothes?" Jack asked looking for them.

"Well your shirt was completely destroyed but as for your other articles of clothing they are right here." She said pulling open a drawer to reveal his pants and socks. Then reaching down she pulled up his boots he had been wearing as well.

"Um can I have some privacy to change at least?" Jack asked sheepishly to the guards putting on a weak smile.

The guards looked to each other and after muttering between themselves looked back and gave a single nod "You have five minutes to change before we come back in." One said turning around and walking out followed by Red Heart who gave him a final smile and wave then finally the last guard.

Jack took a second to get his nerves under control before getting out of bed and putting his clothes on or at least the ones he had. Taking a look around he noticed a mirror above a sink. Walking over he splashed some water on his face to freshen up a bit before he caught sight of his face in the mirror. Now Jack wasn't one to care about how nice he looked but he did take notice in his feature. He had a decent bit of hair on his head that all his old friends would joke he'd never go bald. Sharp almost almond shaped eyes with brown iris's along with high cheek bones and strong looking jaw. As he looked back at himself he thought of a joke his mom would always tease him about.

"You could have been a model!" she'd shout " But nooooo you just had to be two inches to tall." She'd say with a laugh, always tease him about his height standing at 6'5". Turns out the cut off for most agencies was 6'3" but he never liked the idea of modeling anyway. After cleaning his face and checking for stubble even though he couldn't grow a beard to save his life he began to look at his body. He was fit and had a good bit of muscle he'd gained from the various jobs he had worked but he definitely wasn't some mountain of a man. He quickly turned around though when he heard the door open to reveal one of the guards from early in the door way.

"Follow me and put this on." He commanded throwing Jack a white shirt that looked to be one size to big.

As he slipped it on he followed behind staying silent but keeping a smile on his face to avoid making anyone worry. Another thing his mom always joked about along with his siblings was that he had serious resting bitch face whenever he didn't smile. Shaking his head he focused back on the present just as they rounded a corner and entered the lobby of the hospital were he saw what could only be described a a crayon box of colored ponies the most notable being the two that stood what he could guess at eight feet tall. The crowns and jewels they wore also helped him figure they were the princesses the guards had spoke of.

"Hello, you must be Jack Teller." The white colored princess said in a motherly tone taking a few steps towards him. "I am Princess Celestia." She had hair the color of light pinks, blues, and greens flowing in a nonexistent breeze and a figure that would put any super model on earth to shame. It didn't help him focus with how tight her dress was on her accenting her large bust and long thick legs.

Jack took a gulp and responded back "Yes your highness but you can call me Jack. I'm not one for fancy etiquette you could say." He weakly chuckled forcing his eyes to stay on her face.

"So he does speak." He heard from a woman with purple fur and hair jotting down notes faster then he thought possible. "I'm Twilight Sparkle." She said rushing up to him with an almost hungry glint in her eyes "You're a human correct? That's what Red Heart said, what are your people like? Can they use magic? How advanced is your civilization?" She asked rapid fire.

"OHOHOHdoyoulikepartieshowaboutcakeormaybepiehowaboutwhensyourbirthday?" another one asked, this one pink with a head of hair that seemed to defy the laws of physics with how her hair was moving. Both got quickly dragged back by a yellow light surrounding them.

"Now now girls I know you have a lot of questions but lets not overwhelm the poor thing." Celestia said "Now Jack what do you know about our world so far and how did you get here?" She inquired with a raised brow.

"Um you guys are ponies and that I'm in Equestria as far as I know." Jack said breathing a little easier with the two ponies not so close to him now, he then explained how he had died and been moved here. "Oh and to answer your guys's questions yes I'm a human, it depends on what culture you look at to see what we are like, no we can't use magic, and we've been to the moon a few times so decently advanced. And as for yours." Jack said turning towards the pink ball of energy "Yes I like parties but I haven't been to many, yes I like both cake and pie, and my birthday is April 21." He finished "Um random question but what happened to that little girl?"

As if on queue the door to the hospital opened and in walked Dinky who gasped and quickly ran up to Jack before anyone could protest. Following behind her came a woman Jack can only assume was her mother. "You're okay mister!" Dinky shouted hugging his waist.

"Ah perfect timing Dinky. How is your arm?" Jack asked forgetting about everyone else for a second to return her hug and crouch down to see her better.

Rolling up her sleeve revealed three thin scratches on her up arm." It's healing ok but now I have these cool scars." She said jumping up and down.

"My you are right they do look cool. Perfect for a brave girl like you." Jack said with a laugh as he ruffled her hair "And I imagine this is your mother correct?" He asked turning to the woman or mare in question.

She seemed like an average woman about 5'4" with a gold mane and slightly crossed eyes. Her body had moderate curves and average bust. "Yes, my names Ditzy but everyone calls me Derpy. I can't thank you enough for saving my daughter from that manticore." She said quickly hugging the man.

"It was nothing ma'am anyone would have tried to do the same." Jack replied trying to stay modest. "But um does anyone know who the person was that punched me?" He asked looking around the room till his eyes fell on the orange mare covering her face with her hat. She looked to be about 5'10" he could also tell she worked a labour job from her muscles showing past her flannel tied just above her midriff and daisy dukes showing strong well build legs topping off the look finally with cowboy boots and the Stetson hat.

"Yeah ah'm real sorry bout that. I thought yall's was anotha monster trying to attack little Dinky over here. My names Applejack by the way." She said looking up with a blush on her face "Also yall probably want to know who we are. Ah'm Applejack like I just said. I run the apple family farm."

"I'm Rainbow Dash, the fastest flyer ever and future wonderbolt. I'm also the person that will kick your plot if you try anything funny." Rainbow said with scratchy voice followed with a glare and jab at his chest. She looked to be the shortest out of the bunch at maybe 5' even with a body like a sprinter. Lean and fit were the two words that came to Jacks head looking at her. He could also call her a Pegasus from the wings on her back.

Next to approach him was a white unicorn judging by the horn on her head. "My name is Rarity." She said with a posh voice striking him as a upper class lady. She walked with a graceful step in a fine blouse shirt and dress pants showing she knew what fashion was with how well it complemented her figure. Where Applejacks was fit and built with muscle Rarity's was still fit but with just the right cushion to draw the eyes where she wanted them to go.

Sticking her hand out Jack gently grabbed it and with a slight bow kissed the top of it."It's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance m'lady." He said with a smile and a wink at her causing her to blush and let a small laugh out.

"Good to know you aren't some barbarian and have some proper manners unlike some people. "She replied with a look over at Rainbow dash who frowned and turned her head away. "My friend over there is Fluttershy, you'll have to forgive her if she doesn't seem to like you as she is easily scared. "Rarity stated pointing over to a soft yellow and pink haired mare hiding behind Applejack though it didn't help she was taller at maybe 6' and had what could be only described as a mothers figure with ample bust and large hips in a sundress.

Jack nodded in her direction "I'm terribly sorry if I scare you Fluttershy. I promise you I mean no harm. "Jack said putting on a easy face and making his admittedly deep voice sound more gently. It did the trick as she stopped cowering fully looking over Applejacks shoulder and gave a slight nod. The moment was quickly ruined by a pink blur slamming him to the ground. When he finally looked up he say the pink pony from earlier straddling his waist and pressing her large chest to his making him blush.

"Hi, my names Pinkie Pie I bet we will be the best of friends especially after I get your 'Welcome to Ponyville' party together." She said in one breath. She had a larger figure then the others but Jack could tell she wasn't fat if anything the word to describe her was cuddle-able.

A purple aura lifted her as she struggled to hug him again. "Sorry about that." The purple pony said, "My name is Twilight Sparkle, Celestias Protege, and the princess of friendship." Twilight said after moving Pinkie Pie far enough away. She looked like what you'd imagine a cute, dorky librarian would be like with a vest over a button up and pencil skirt. He put her at 5'4" tall with an average body type like Derpy's. "And this is my number one assistant Spike." Gesturing to a...

"HOLY CRAP IS THAT A DRAGON!" Jack shouted as Spike came into view. "That's so wicked!" He shouted as he got closer to Spike looking him over, "Dude can you breath fire?? And look at these claws and those teeth. You are badass!" He said.

Spike was shocked at first at the shouting but quickly laughed "Yeah I can breath fire, Watch." He said before quickly taking a breath and shooting a small green flame out. Jack stood there with a massive grin on his face after seeing that.

"You are one of the COOLEST things I've seen so far here man." Jack said still with the wide grin on him.

"And finally there's me." Came a voice behind him as the second eight foot tall princess walked forward. "I am Princess Luna." She proclaimed with an air of confidence. She matched in height Celestia if not slightly shorter with midnight blue fur and a starry night like mane. Her figure wasn't as large as Celestias but definitely not to be scoffed at.

Jack quickly bowed to her before looking back up "It's a pleasure to meet you all but umm where am I going to be staying and where can I get new clothes?" He asked sheepishly rubbing the back of his head. "I can't exactly live in the hospital."

"No you can't which is why you'll be staying with Twilight for the rest of your stay till we figure out more about you." Celestia stated looking down at him.

"Well I guess no day like the present. Come on I have so many questions to ask you!" Twilight exclaimed dragging him out the door followed by every one but Luna and Celestia both with looks of worry on their face.

"You saw the marks on his wrist didn't you sister." Luna asked looking to Celsetia.

"Yes, I hope it isn't what I think it is." Celestia replied before walking out the door.
