After docking in the docs, we all got off of the ship. Twilight had been explaining about the monarchy system, and that she was one of the princesses. Calaeo had decided to go with us, while her crew would tend to the ship. We loaded our weapons after having to share ammunition. I had also just found out that we lost a member of the platoon while I was unconscious. I was now using her gun.

I embedded her name into the weapon. It was more scratched, then anything else but still. It read “Lyla.”. I switched the safety on, and walked up to Natasha. We all began to walk single file behind Twight, Pinkie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Calaeo.

“I don’t think you should all be walking like that.”. Rarity stated. We didn’t care for her words though. We kept our line going. “I think it is a good thing Rarity.”. Twilight said. Applejack had a raised eyebrow. “What do you mean sugarcube?”. She asked. “Well if they walk like this then will look like some kind of royal guard. Yes, they will be given curious glances but no pony will approach us.”. She explained to her friends.

As we walked down the docs, we reached the city. The city itself was amazing, if you were from here. For one, the city was made entirely from brick, marble, stone, and gold. It all looks so beautiful in a way. Thanks to our hard training I was able to keep myself contained. As we made our way through, I saw a shadow loom over my head.

Looking up I saw flying carriages being flown through the sky. It was almost like looking at flying cars. Though there were next to none of these carriages going around. I was a little disappointed to see no more of those.

Continuing to walk, I could see what Twilight meant when she said that we would be given stares. The ponies here just dropped everything and had dropped jaws. All the while they were looking at us. They were all wearing some kind of fancy wear, and I could already tell that these were the snobby rich people.

The ponies that had regained their composure, scoffed at us like we were nothing but meat. Gotta give that to them. They looked like they wanted to approach us to say some kind of insult, but not only were they hesitating because of us. They were hesitating because a princess was with us. They quickly began to bow, because they are just now noticing their ‘protectors’.

Twilight sighed with an annoyed tone. “I hate when they bow.”. She mumbled. I chuckled a little bit. I was at the front of the line with Natasha and she only had a grin on her face. She wasn’t looking at me, but it was at the strange lavender princess.

“Why do you hate when they bow down to you?”. I asked. She walked a bit closer to me. “You see, I always hated formalities. It’s also something I never got used to.”. She explained. “Understandable. You told me that you only became a princess not long ago.”. Natasha said. She joined into our conversation. Twilight only nodded.

We approached the castle, and at the front gates were two different ponies. One was a pale white unicorn with a blue mane. He wore golden armor which was terrible unless you wanted to look fancy. He had a spear in his hand, and he had a relieved face to see us all.

Next to him was a shorter pony but he seemed to be about the same height as Twilight. He had a darker blue mane that was spiked up. His fur coat was slightly orange, and he too was wearing golden armor. I looked at Twilight, and she looked annoyed. Then she looked happy.

Twilight charged forward and hugged the taller pony. “SHINING!”. She yelled. “Sis! I thought something bad happened.”. He said. “Something would have if not for them.”. She said looking back at us. The stallion now pronounced ‘Shining’ was looking at us with a furred eyebrow.

“I was worried about you too.”. The other stallion said. Twilight just sighed. Almost like a grunt. “Hello flash.”. She said. It sounded like an insult to say his name. Calaeo walked up to the two and quickly pushed them away from each other.

“Um did something happen between those two?”. I asked. The ponies had a hateful glare towards the stallion. “Flash not only broke twilights heart. He had hurt my coltfriend spike! The poor dears.”. Rarity explained to us.
“That bad huh… if he lays a finger on any of you, you let us know.”. Natasha said.

Natasha was always one to repay a debt, and currently we hold a pretty big debt to Calaeo and these ponies. Flash got the message and left. With that we wandered into the castle. Shining had taken the lead.

“So who exactly are you?”. He asked us all. “My name is Natasha. I am the Leader of this Platoon. We are the timberwolves.”. She stated Proudly.
“Names shining armor. I have to say I never seen a military group like you before.”. He said. Natasha decided to explain. “We are the mobile infantry. A human military that has been fighting against the arachnid bugs since they attacked earth.”. She said.

She began to explain everything about our army, that she was allowed to tell. I stopped paying attention because it wasn’t something for me to listen to. I looked around at the surroundings as we entered the castle. It was all built with marble, and stone. There was also a hint of gold here and there.

The hallways were covered in paintings, vases and a very long ass rug. We have been on the same red carpet since we entered the castle. I shrugged it off as I noticed the many stained glass windows. They were all decorated to look like a story of some kind. Maybe of some past events?

There was a set of doors up ahead. They were massive. They were dark brown and looked incredibly heavy to push. Shining armor stopped his conversation with Natasha and pushed the doors open with his magic.

“Princess celestia, Luna and Cady we have some guests…”. Was all I heard shining armor say, before I heard every men in the platoon gasp. Though it was the kind of gasp that said ‘A HOT CHICK!’.
