1315 Hours

Castle of Friendship.

The Quiet of the Castles library was broken by a hushed and muffled voice, If it were occupied, those in the room would of seen the peering eyes of Eliza through the closed but unlocked window.

"Rooms clear" She whispers to Luke before gingerly pulling the windows frame open. Eliza climbs in, holding Applebloom close to her chest, by this point the CMC were still scared, but they knew they could trust these two humans to some measure, due to these two protecting them from the others.

After Eliza was inside she put Applebloom down, and leaned back out to help Luke in. She took Luke's hand and pulled him in, The two foals hanging from a basket made from Luke's duck down stuffed raincoat that was secured around his waist by their Dingoes tow cable. Yes it was safe, They double checked it. One end wrapped around Luke's waist, around the waists of both Sweetiebelle and Scootaloo, before looping through the coats brass hoop buckles and back around Luke's waist.

Once Luke was inside, they both pulled the remainder of the braided steel cable inside and eventually the two foals. Eliza turned to where she left Applebloom, And found empty space...

"Shit!" Eliza quietly cursed herself.

"No offence El, But, What did you expect to happen?" Luke said through a concerned nervous smile.

"Yeah, Yeah. Let those two go then we'll have to triple time it. Anything about this lands history and its people! And no fairy tales!" Eliza ordered Luke in a hushed yell.

When untied to two foals looked at each other then back at the humans, Who, ushered them to leave. They did so, gladly.
Eliza and Luke quietly jogged over to the vast bookshelves and began glancing over titles. Forty two books in, Eliza finds 'The Complete History of Equestria before Nightmare moon Vol.1' Glancing over the next few books she quickly finds Volumes 2-5 and piles them in Luke's jacket.

Luke discovered the 'Encyclopedia of subspecies Magics & Spells'. The book was Thick At least 6000 pages! He hefted the book into his jacket basket and continued his 'Liberation of the bookshelves'. Next up was 'Earthponies -N- You'. The blurb on the back read 'The complete known Earthpony history and unique attributes.' "Good enough for me." Luke said adding it to the now rapidly developing pile.

Little did they know... They'd picked up an undetected guest watching them from the crack in the door. Both the humans continued rushing from shelf to table and back again, With Luke occasionally lifting the jacket in the air by the steel cable to check its weight.

Meanwhile on the other side of the door...

The ponies colours were obscured by the darkness of the room. The orange and white stallion had blacked out the windows using magic, so that Captan Celaeno could show him the humans encampment using a new spell he 'cooked up'. the spell displays memories in the air, like publicly replaying princess sparkles simulation spell.

Captain celaeno had been answering an urgent summons by the Princesses, she'd been flying along the outskirts of The Everfree, When she noticed something so unusual it may as well of been impossible. Smoke, Campfire smoke. In The Everfree.

"Looking through my spyglass, i saw a city of tents. An uncountable number. Most likely Thousands of them... But that wasn't all!

What ever had set up their camp in the forest. had cleared large amounts of trees and constructed a crude fort of sorts. All the tree cut down were in a large stretched rectangle. At the end of the rectangle there were three Huge buildings with curved roofs. One had its doors open and several very large strange vehicles could be seen inside... The larger being."

Celaeno had to concentrate but eventually the images of the vehicles showed up and stayed displayed in the darkness of the castle foyer. The response, unsurprisingly, Was all in attendance to gasp in shock at monstrosities of engineering.

"That isnt the end of either! There were rows upon rows of hundreds of smaller ones!" Concentrating once more Celaeno replaced the heavy aircraft with 'the smaller ones'

Everyone around the table was looking very troubled... The full scope of the situation was finally beginning to sink in with this report... These 'Humans' are not even in the same technological league as the equestrians. but the full gravity of the situation was still not taking its effect on those in attendance. Luna looked around the room. Those in attendance were.

Captain Celaeno. Herself and her sister Princess Celestia. Princess Twilight Sparkle. Princess Cadance and ShiningArmour.
The invited Leader of Nova Griffonia (Equestria's closest griffon ally, due to their friendship running so deep, and the Equestrian colony in the Nova's territory.) . Olenia's leader. As well as the ambassadors for Stalliongrad the buffalo kingdom and the Hippogriff's.

It was Nova Griffonia's leader- Governor Teafeather. Whom spoke first. "So they're currently in possession of advanced technology. Whats the big deal? You Equestrians outnumber them what? A million to one? How much damage can a bigger shinier sword do?"

It was Princess Skystar, Heir to the Hippogriff throne, who actually began to speak sense, Being young enough to believe in the rumors circulating around Equestria about the humans and their 'Technology. "What Princess Luna's saying, is their weapons and equipment are Centuries ahead of us! Airships the size of wagons that fly through the air at hundreds of kilometers an hour! Armoured wagons that are virtually indestructible to the common soldier! Weapons that can kill and maim from thousands of meters away!-"

"THATS PRO-POSTEROUS!" Ambassador Ralph Archonev, of Stalliongrad. Spat out in disbelief. "I HVE' NVER' HERRRD', OF SUCH LIES!-"

Luna by now was quite visibly fuming at the sheer incompetence that was being displayed by the various parties. only Celestia, Skystar and Sunburst was fully heeding the gravity of the situation. If only they could SEE what the humans world is lik-. The thought slapped Luna across the face.

Feeling the immense amount of power needed, all in attendance turned to the now glowing Luna, before any could mouth a word. Everyone in attendance, Blinked out of existence. Except Sunburst, who noticed a petrified Applebloom pointing him to the library.

The sight that greeted him through the crack in the door was surly something interesting...

-=SPLOOOOFF=-

The group of Leaders and representatives appeared in a world of dull colours. Those dull greys slowly developing colour, but it would never be as colourful as their homes...

Governor Teafeather approaches the clearly weakened Luna before asking "Care to explain yourself? Where have you taken us?"

"I've taken us nowhere. But my memories. More specifically. The Memories of the Memories and dreams associated to the humans as i was performing my role."

Celestia walked over to her younger sibling. "So why this particular memory?" She asks cautiously.

Luna looked at her sister with stern determination. "Because, Dear sister. Your ALL Going to see.

Skystar walked over to the solar and lunar princesses. "See what?" She asked nervously. Luna's reply chilled all of them.

"The humans definition of a place called... "Hell..." It was then that the world around them sharpened into outlines then shapes. They were standing in a road. Around the road on either side were houses. They were in a town! But Skyscrapers lined the horizon in the distance. So they're in a suburb.

The sun had just Slowly edged its way over the horizon. Birds began chirping. The cool air that surrounded their ghostly forms began to warm and it looked, as if the beginning day was going to be grand.

Until... A Shrill howl filled the air... Followed by a rumbling Menacing Growl...

All looked to the sky, except Luna, who just sadly clenched her eyes shut, knowing of the gruesome display of that which was to come. And everyone's mouths fell agape. The bright orange morning sky... Was suddenly blackened by the silhouettes of Hundreds of flying metal vehicles like Celaeno had showed, but BIGGER.

After the cloud started to Roar over it seemed to never stop... on and on more and more aircraft flew over head. Each aircraft dropping dozens of things by parachute...

Humans!?

Luna opened her eyes. "Brace Thy selves... This may be too much for you...
