Always Faithful, Always Forward....right?

(WARNING!!!!: This story contains violence, death, war and the effects of PTSD. If you do not like that then please DO NOT READ you have been warned)

When a Marine Raider falls into Equestria during a time of crisis, The rulers of Equestria are in dire need of his help but do not realize what they have brought to their land. An unstable, angry and bloodthirsty killer will have to work with Lyra Heartstring to get home....if it's even real

The slow descent into madness...

NOTE: I have the highest respect for our troops and their sacrifice for our nation. This isn't to make them seem like monsters or bloodthirsty killers, very few realize how bad PTSD affects our troops. Suicide is just one of the few things caused by PTSD, our main character is an example of such. He can't comprehend the tragedy of war anymore and sees it as a normal life, unlike others who regret their time overseas. If you know someone who is a veteran and is struggling with PTSD please talk to them and show them that they are still loved.

Boots in Equestria

Semper Fidelis

Time:1930
Loctaion: Kazakhstan Province ISIS compound.

We stacked up on the rear door of the building ready to finally put down the ISIS leader Bahgdadi once and for all. The SEALs gave us this one chance to do something badass and we took it like savages. I flipped down my nods and nodded to my buddy, we kicked down the door and entered the building. I scanned the left side of the room while my buddies took left amd center.

"Clear, moving to the stairs" I called moving to the stairs. We stacked up and slowly acended the steps making as little noise as possible. From around the corner came a shadow so I popped two shots into them killing them instantly. I stepped over the body and continue to go up stairs, I hear movement from the left side of the hallway and signal to my buddy to stack up.

I turned down the left hallway with my rifle raised and push to the door at the end office th hallway. I feel the door for any unusual pressure before tossing two bangers I side, right as they go off I along with two other marines push inside eliminating the first guy who was aiming his AK at me. He dropped onto the floor and the women in the room started screaming.

"Shut her up!" I order one marine. He goes over and covers her mouth and drags her out of the room to the team downstairs. I go to the bathroom and could hear heavy breathing inside.

A few shots left the door missing me by a long shot and by the diagnle strafe the bastsrd is hiding to the far right of the room. I heard the enemy shuffling letting me know he's distracted so I push open the door and pop him in the skull. I go over and check the body, I lift his head and by the grace of God I killed Musab Laden.

"Fox-6 this is Spear-1, Geronimo for God and country I reapeat Geronimo for God and country...we got him" I relay back to base.

"Copy all Spear 1 head to the extract and come on home Fox-6 out" I grab Musab and drag his body back down to the living room so we could extract the body and get the hell out of dodge.

"Yo sarge, we got civvies moving up on the house, we got to get the fuck outa here man" A marine informs me.

"Copy bagging the body now" I put the body in the black back and we move out the back to the chopper waiting for us. We loaded the body on board and I was about to hop on but we were hit with and rpg.

"TAKING FIRE FROM THE SECOND WATER TOWER!" The pilot called out. I turned around to take him out but was blasted by an rpg and fell off the chopper and blacking out after I hit my head.

Time:0346
Location:Unkown

My eyes cracked open to see a tree above me. I sat up and raised my rifle to scan the area for the enemy but saw no one. The trees around me indicated I was in a forest but that shouldn't be possible as I'm supposed to be in the dessert.

"Spear-1 to Fox-6 do you copy?" I say into the radio. I waited a few minutes for a response but only received silence. "Just fucking great no comms"

I took out my compass and saw I was facing North and decided to head West to find the bunker we were currently ststioned in. I checked my M4 mags and they were all full even though I fired off a couple rounds earlier. I stayed in the shadow of the trees as to not get spotted by potential enemy patrols. The trees looked to be oak and dead birch but the middle East doesn't have these kind of trees so either I'm on crack or in another country. The night time felt a bit strange due to all the stars that are out, I've never seen so many before and the moon is a lot bigger than normal as well. Maybe I'm just paranoid about being left behind in possible enemy territory with no knowledge of my surroundings. Naaaaahh I'm a fucking Marine the best of the best and a killing machine I could probably take on a whole town of cave dwellers.

I heard the sound of voices dead ahead and dove behind a shrub then used my nods to see them. I watched as two horses just walked by me but then stopped.

"Where do you think the creature could be?" A raspy voice asked. I thought there were people nearby but then realized the voices came from the horses.

"Well if my tracker is correct it should be here but it can't pinpoint its exact location" the other one said holding a strange box that glowed.

At this point I was shitting bricks at the fact these horses were fucking talking and were hunting me down. I should just kill them and save myself the trouble but something inside told me to wait. I waited for the two horses to leave before moving on and they went down to the spot where I woke up. Once they were out of sight I stood up and moved swiftly through the grass and towards the lights ahead. I could see a small cottage not to far from the forest edge that looked like a petting zoo. The lights were still on telling me someone was home, maybe they could help me but I need to be real fucking careful.

I scanned the surrounding for any possible threat but saw no one and snuck to the window. I peeked inside and saw another horse but it was green with green hair and...wait my nods are still on. I lifted up my nods and looked at the horse, it was yellow with pink hair and good God they had big ass eyes. By the hairstyle it looked like a female horse a uh...mare yeah I think. I watched her feed a bunny that looked like he had an attitude problem and smacked the carrot out of the horses hooves. Are they horses or little ponies? They seem small about 4'10 perhaps but I'm a good 6'2 so I have a good advantage over them in height.

"Oh Angel you won't feel better if you dont take your medicine, please take it for me" She persisted the little rabbit to eat the carrot. After a minute it reluctantly ate it, I don't like the little shit for being a cunt to someone trying to help but whatever not my problem.

I crept away and back to the tree line just in time to hide from the two returning ponies. One of them was lavender with purple hair that looked like a nerdy science girl and the other one who I instantly named skittles due to her rainbow hair and tomboy haircut.

"It says the creature is here now but I don't see it" The lavender pony says looking around. I really need to get rid of that box before she does find me.

"Maybe the spell the princess used didn't work and this is a lost cause" Skittles suggested.

"No the princess said the creature was here and I plan on finding it and maybe if I'm lucky see what makes it work" I almost threw up at the thought of being dissected by these fucks. I raised my rifle and got in a crouched position, once the box was in my sights I squeezed the trigger and in a second the box made a small explosion.

I sprinted across the grassy fields towards the mountains that were at least a few miles away. I heard the sounds of wings and turned my head to see skittles flying after my ass, I picked up the speed but it was no use as skittles crashed into me.

"I got him Twilight!!" She hollard. I grabbed her hind legs and slammed her into the ground. I was about to pop a cap in her but the purple pony was almost here and I was shot by some purple beam.

I fell back but got up quickly and aimed my rifle at them both.

"DON'T FUCKING MOVE OR I WILL BLOW YOUR FUCKING HEAD OFF!!" I ordered. They both frozen in place and the purple pony stsrted to speak.

"My name's Twilight Sparkle I am the princess of friendship and we just wanted to speak with you" Twilight tried to ease the situation but I called her bullshit.

"Tell me where I am and why I'm here..NOW!" I yelled at them.

"Princess Celestia wanted us to get to you and bring you to my castle to...talk" She guessed with the last part so that gave away their plan.

"Don't bullshit me Twinkie I know you used some spell thing to get me here" I stepped back getting ready to run and plan. Twilight sighed and stepped closer.

"It's Twilight actually and yes princess Celestia used a spell to bring you here but it's for the greater good of-" I pulled out a bamger and threw it at her head.

"Fuck you and fuck your gay ass princess!" I insulted them and ran off as they were blinded. I took a turn to the farther out mountain to get them off my trail and figure out what the fuck is going on.

Time:0700
Location:Mountains

I sat in front of my makeshift tent I made from leaves and sticks. Thank you basic training for teaching me to build tents. I took out an MRE and ate it like a cave dweller on crack, I won't complain the MREs do taste alright but after a while it can get real fucking old. I have 3 more to go so I better start hunting and save these for later.

Time:1330
Location:West of camp

I've thought about contacting HQ again but I'm afraid the electric waves would give off my location to the ponies. I ran out of water but luckily a river was nearby my camp and the water was Crystal clear and fresh as fuck too. I walked back after filling up my canteen, as I was walking back I spotted ponies near my camp.

"I'm telling you AJ he's around here who else would build a makeshift tent and have these hoof marks" I reconized the voice as Twinkies but the other pony 'AJ' was a mystery.

"Ah still don't understand why y'all are hunting him down he must be scared to death" AJ spoke in a country accent that was actually kinda hot.

"He's important to our research and is the key to saving Equestria I thought I explained this already!" Twinkie droned on.

"Well yeah you did but you tell us a lot of things" AJ teased. I stayed against the tree and decided to wait them out and get moving once they fuck off.

They looked around some more before giving up and leaving. I packed up my stuff and headed south this time to try and throw them off. I need to find a good place to settle and if I must fight back starting now.

(2 days later)
Time:1922
Location:unknown region of Equestria

I rucked a good couple days until I stumbled upon a dead plain. It was like the grand canyon but with an open mass of dead land. The heat barred down on me but it wasn't as hot as Afghanistan or Iraq at least.

"Hello? Can you here me human?" A voice called out from my head set. I was confused and angry at how the ponies got abold of my channel.

"Hey who the fuck is this, how did you get on this channel?" I snapped at the females voice.

"Relax I'm not trying to hunt you down unlike everypony else. My name's Lyra what's yours?" She asked with a kind voice. I didn't trust this bitch for shit but might as well talk to someone.

"Just call me uh...Marine" I say briefly. I looked at my name tag and started cutting it off with my knife, I couldn't let the enemy know my name so I buried the tag under the dead sand I grabbed my dogtags and buried them too.

"Okay then Marine I'm gonna help you but you have to trust me, the others can track your radio frequency via waves but if you can get to me I could rearrange the currents so they won't give off as much and you wont be tracked" Lyra explained. I rolled my eyes at her attempt to lure me to get captured.

"If you think for one second I'm gonna trust you, you are shit out of luck ghost rider" I continued walking along the dead road to find a way hime.

"Look I know you don't trust them but trust me I can help you get back to where ever you came from. Please believe me when I say your not gonna last much longer alone out here" I stopped in my tracks. If this Lyra ponly really can help me then I might just have to trust her but not yet though. Oh I better not regret this...

"Alright Miss Lyra I'll let you help me, now I'm at the foothold of a dead wasteland facing South. Where should I go?" I ask. I heared a faint squeal before she came back to the radio

"Okay so your in the badlands so I need you to turn around and come to Ponyville it's a two day hike for you and it's just NorthWest of the badlands. Its below the Canterlot mountain where the castle is you can't miss It" Lyra said with excitement. I sighed and made a 180 and started marching to the faint Castle in the distance. This is the worse week ever...

The Marine and a pony

Time:2239
Location:possibly Ponyville

I pulled out my binoculars and scanned over the area, I think I arrived at this Ponyville Lyra spoke of and it was the same town that Twinkie pony is from most likely. I could see a big Crystal tree that was a castle which was fucking weird but everything about this place is weird.

"Lyra do you copy" I say into the walkie.

"Hey there Marine I'm here just waiting on you to hurry up so we can get started" She chirped happily.

"I'm at the edge of Ponyville but I don't know what house you're in and I don't plan on strolling through town at the moment" I spotted a squad of what looked like guards at the entrance to town.

"Okay I have a pole on my roof that had a red light can you see it?" She said. I looked around and spotted the house at the East bank of the town.

"I see it, I'm on my way" I circled around and climbed over a wooden fence. The guards here were pretty clumsy and I could kill them without literally anyone noticing. I crept in the shadows using my nods to see better while not being seen by the populace.

I made it to Lyras house and went to her back door, I turned the nob and it was unlocked to my surprise. I raised my rifle in case she did try to pull a fast one and made my way inside. The house looked like it was from a children's show with all the fancy furniture and girly looking art on the walls.

"I'm up here Marine!" Lyra called from the stairs. I pointed my rifle to the stairs and slowly walked up them. A light came from a room at the top of the stairs assuming she's in there and not hiding I have nothing to worry about.

I crept closer to the doorway and peeked in to see a mint green pony sitting at a desk staring at me and waving. I sighed and lowered my rifle seeing as she doesn't seem like a threat. I placed my M4 next to the bed and sat down finally able to relax frim all the evading and hiking. Lyra just stared at me with a smile so big it was running of her face, literally.

"You said you can help me yeah?" I pull out my radio and walkie.

"Yes I can adjust the radio waves it gives off so that way it will be really hard to track your EMP and that will allow us to work without trouble" She took my radio and started fiddling with it. I looked around her room and it was filled with posters and books on technology and anatomy stuff.

"Why are you helping me?" I wondered as we didn't even know each other. She stopped fiddling with the radio and looked back at me.

"I don't believe in using sentient beings for others satisfaction or a test subject of any kind expecially humans" She put an emphasis on the human part.

"Have they captured more humans?!" I stood up rifle in hand. If they were using us as test subjects then I needed to stop it.

"Nononono you are the first ever human and other worldly creature to arrive here I just know a lot about Humans from old legends jeez your so paranoid" She explained to me. I calmed down and sat back on the bed. Lyra told be the other locations of Equestria and it's old ruins we could explore to find a way to stop the leader of this place and get me home.

"I'm gonna continue tomorrow on this you can sleep in my guest room, Bon Bon won't mind shes out of town for a few weeks" Lyra showed me to a small room with a bed and desk. I put my M4 next to the bed and took off my body armor to get comfortable before bed.

I laid down and held my 1911 under my pillow incase of an attack from someone. I closed my eyes and let sleep consume me, I haven't slept in four days so this was nice for once. I felt my body float in the darkness which was wierd cause my dreams usually consist of terrible events of me possibly killing children but they shot me so they asked for it. I didn't have any nightmares so far which was a relief to know, although it didn't bkther me as much due to the fact I signed up for infantry then later MARSOC and I knew the risks I was willing to risk it all.

I felt a strange presence near me as though someone was watching me but I couldn't see them. Just in front of me a blue mass appeared showing a blue pony with horns and wings like Twinkie, she had a frown on her face as she came closer to me. I reached for my pistol but realized I was asleep and its just a dream.

"You have caused quite the stir up in Canterlot Mr..." The pony wanted to know my name. I really wanted to wake up right now cause this is getting crazy.

"Fuck you and fuck Camelot" I crossed my arms.

"Its pronounced Canterlot and I mean you no harm, I just simply wish to ask a few questions" She assured. I wasn't buying it since this was a dream and nothing in a dream is real.

"This is just a dream and you're not real so fuck you, your not getting any info out of me" I turned around and tried to walk away but walking on nothing proved to be the victor in keeping me still.

"Fine I shall start introductions, I am princess Luna princess of the night and guardian of the dream world I am the co-ruler of Equestria along side my sister who is the one looking for you" She held out her hand...hoof to show it was my turn.

"Fine my names Marine and I want to go home" I said sounding grumpy.

"What's your profession?" She asked. I groaned and put my hands on my head.

"I'm not telling you lady now fuck off so I can figure out how to get out of this stupid place" This dream world she put me in was starting to piss me off.

I tried to walk off again this time dirt appearing under me. I looked down and back up to find myself back in Iraq, fucking towel heads were firing at me so I took cover behind a burnt car. My M4 laid next to me so I picked it up and played suppressing fire on the care to my left. From The houses in front of me someone pulled out an M2 browning and started firing on my position.

"This is Spear-1, I am pinned down by heavy enemy machine gun fire I'm requesting a Bone strike on the east house charted 7-2 it's danger close but I can't move how copy" I yell into the walkie.

"Copy all Spear 1 sending the request to Fox 6 so we can clear it how copy" the operator replied. I shook my head and pressed the button again.

"Negative I need it now the M2 is tearing my cover up and I'm stuck in the middle of the street over" I peeked over and could see the guy in the second story window wearing a black shirt and red scarf around his head. The operator was still silent which was fucking retarded as I'm in a firefight.

I scooted to the rear end of the car and spotted a wall I could use as cover. I looked back to find any Marines but saw that Luna lady just standing there in the open. I gestured for her to move her ass over here and she did.

"What the fuck is this?!" I screamed in her face. She shrugged and sat down next to me leaving me with my urge to shoot her. I looked back at the M2 and the guy just ran out of ammo and began reloading. I took thus chance to switch cover and dragged the pony with me, I tossed a smoke and moved to the next door house kicking down the door.

"You seem to adapt to dangerous situations well Mr Marine" Luna complimented. I droned her out as I cleared the rooms then upstairs to make sure no one was in here to kill us.

I found a door that connected this house and the one with the M2. The firing stsrted up again but not at the door, he still thought we were outside I guess. I quickly busted open the door and shot the man on the M2 but a hand grabbed my rifle making me stumble into the wall. The cunt who grabbed my rifle wore all black with a Russian vest on and covered his face. I headbuttd him and pulled out my knife, the mother fucker then pulled out a meat cleaver and charged at me. I side stepped and grabbed his arm while kicking his leg out from under him. I had him on the ground and started pushing the knife closer and closer to his neck. While he did struggle I managed to plunge the blade into him killing him slowly, I pulled it out and used his hijab to clean it off.

"Well that was...gruesome to see" Luna said by the door way. I stood up and turned around to face her then pulled out my pistol and shot her in the face making everything go black.

I woke up in a cold sweat and had to remember where I was, I calmed down when I remembered I was in the guest room of Lyras house. I got out of bead and put my body armor on then checked the time which was 1028. I holstered my pistol and left the room to find Lyra. I found her down stairs drinking coffee and she presented my radio and other stuff in the table. Lyra just finished with my radio so now it'll be hard for them to track me. She also handed me a map of Equestria and circled a few locations I should go to, I chose to start at this 'Castle of the two sisters' it's not far and it's actually in the forest I woke up in so there's that. I packed up my shit and headed down stairs, we had to wait until night time so we wouldn't be seen and it would be easier to sneak out.

"Hey have you heard of a Luna by chance?" I ask her.

"Oh yeah shes a princess of Equestria and the night why?" I explained to her my dream and how she was in it. Lyra thinks she was trying to find me through the dream world and find out who I was. I didn't like the fact these ponies could walk into my head and fuck with me, I would kill the next person or pony who tries that shit again.

A few hours go by and I'm sitting on Lyras couch reading the map of Equestria for the millionth time. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss a single spot that could help me get home. A knock at the door caused me to whip out my 1911 and train it on the door, I moved behind the couch as Lyra rushed down stairs.

"Quick go upstairs I'll see who it is!" She went up to the door and peeked through the peep hole. I quietly crept upstairs and waited for her to give me the all clear.

"Hey there Lyra can I speak to you, it's something important?" I recognized that voice as Twinkies or Twilight argh! fuck off with these gay ass names. Why was she here did she track me or something?

"What's up?" Lyra said sounding innocent as ever.

"We are tracking a creature we think you could help us with. I think it was a human or something similar but he's very dangerous. He's about six hooves tall and wears a tan outfit with weird gadgets on his back. Princess Celestia wants to see him and make a proposition for him" Twilight went on about this fucking Celestia like calm down bitch no need to praise her like she's God.

"You think there's a human in Equestria? Impossible, they are just myths here but maybe in another universe Twi" I could tell she was trying to get Twilight to leave so we could escape from this place.

"Well that's where we're wrong Celestia used a spell and brought a creature here believing it could be the key to saving Equestria. I made contact with him and he seemed very angry and very dangerous, he has these black sticks that he used to some how destroy my tracking radar, I think he might be a soldier or a guard of some kind" Twilight was spot on about me being angry cause I'm always angry so its nothing new.

"Well if you want I have a book I wrote on humans and maybe it could help you with your hunt" Lyra came up the stairs and went to her room and grabbed a book. "We'll have to move fast so when I give you two knocks go to the back room and crawl out the window and wait for me at the forest entrance" She whispered to me on her way down. I nodded and got my shit together then waited by the stakrs again to listen.

"There are guards stationed all around Ponyville so incase they spot him they can get him and maybe if I'm lucky preform some experiments" Twilight said gleefully. Lyra got closer to the door then knocked on the wall twice giving me the signal. I moved like a fucking mouse to the back room and quietly opened the window, I checked to make sure no one could see me before hurtling down into a bush.

I crouched by the fence and scanned the area for any civilian or guards. I spotted two armored lonies by a bench just chatting away not paying attention, I used that moment to dart across the street and go under the town center building. The hole in the wall allowed me to crawl through and I made my way across the cold dirt. A crack of light shined down from above me and I couldn't help but peek in to see what was I side. I got close to the crack and could see a pasty white pony with a purple stylish mane and a horn using her magic thing powers to move stuff around.

"Ah yes this shall go nicely with the maroon ties" She had a what I would call a fancy people accent. I continued crawling and made it to a little box door that lead outside, I looked around and saw the forest a few blocks down.

My heart raced as I moved from cover to cover then ran along side a moving cart before sprinting to the forest that was so close. I almost made it to the tree line before slamming into someone. I fell backwards with the person ontop of me both if us dazed out.

"Oh I'm so sorry I wasn't paying att-" I wrapped my hand around her mouth put pressure on her neck to knock her out which only took a few seconds. I looked back at her and realized it was the yellow pony chick from the other day, I saw her hkuse to my left and carried her to it. I layed her kn her steps before departing and hid in the tree line to wait for Lyra.

Time:2043
Location:Everfree forest border.

Finally Lyra showed up with a pack and a head lamp for some reason. I whistled her over to my location and raised my arms.

"What the fuck took you so long?" I whispered harshly to her.

"Sorry Twilight just wouldn't shut up about you and when you climbed out the window she heard it so I had to make up some excuse but now I'm here so let's go!" She sheepishly smiled. I put down my nods and followed here through the forest to the castle.

We walked through the darkness and it felt rather nice out here in the lonesome dark. If we did find a way to get me home I'd have to at least tell someone about what has ahooend here and be sure to prepare for am invasion if these ponkes know about us they could try to invade like those movies although we'd win cause humans are the superior race. The thought of me being caught by them came to mind and their methods of torture are probably tickles and hugs, I couldn't imagine getting tickled information that would be embarrassing.

"So what did you do for a living Marine? You don't have to answer but it's nice to talk to somepony in a dark place, Twilight thought you were some soldier but I want to hear from you" Lyra prodded. I would like to tell her because shes the only one I somewhat trusted out of all these damn ponies.

"Well yeah I am a soldier, I was trained by the best instructors to become a rootin tootin cowboy shootin killing machine" I raised my rifle in flexing pose. Lyra just snickered at that and continued walking.

"Do you think the others are gonna try and use you for war or something?" She Asked and I actually didn't think about that.

"I would rather die from and IED than fight for this place. I serve my country proudly and I will die before I became a traitor" I put a hand over my American flag that was stitched into my carrier.

"What was it like to fight and...kill" She seemed uncomfortable with the word kill and who could blame her she looked like the softest thing ever. Images of dead jihadist flashed through my mind like lighting.

"I don't think about it much but I get nightmares every time I sleep of those I've killed its the price I pay for war" I said quietly.

"Do you regret it?" She then asked. I just shook my head.

"No...no I don't, I had a job to do and it was to protect my brothers and sisters in arms no matter the cost I wish it didn't come with paranoia" We remained ssilent for the rest of the trip.

We arrived at the old castle that looked like utter shit from my point of view. The doors were gone and the bridge looked like it was ready to croak and kill us both. Lyra was the first to cross without any issue and used her magical ability to carry my ass over, I felt really fucking weird afterwards with vertigo. I stopped being a bitch and caught up with Lyra and we walked into the castle without knowing that a certain group of ponies were following us.

No better friend, No worse enemy

Time:2340
Location:Castle of the two sisters mage chambers.

I flew through thess books trying to find anything about teleportation at a cosmic scale but this Star Swirl dude didn't even complete half his shit. I see why the dude just up and left he never got his shit done, my drill instructor would have a field day with this guy. Lyra mentioned something about other places we could go to but I wanted to clear the while place just in case.

"This place is scrapped let's go" I picked up my rifle and we headed upstairs and into the throne room. I was the first to enter the room and knew something was off. I held up my hand to signal to Lyra to stop, I looked over to the table near the entrance and it was moved about four feet closer to the door way.

"What is it?" Lyra asked slightly worried.

"We have company, get to cover now!" I ordered. We took cover behind the broken shelf and I pointed my rifle at the table. What felt like hours was only a few seconds as I saw a purple mohawk appear from the table. I immediately fired two rounds dropping the sneaky bastards, soon after other enemy forces made themselves known and fired crossbow bolts at me.

I scooted to the left and shot one of them in the leg making them fall and their head in my sights. I pulled the trigger and dropped him, I aimed at the next target who was running to cover but was too slow for my bullet to the skull. I waited a full minute before moving forward, I shot each body just to be sure and when I cleared the room I gave the all clear.

"Their dead Lyra you can come out now" I bent down and noticed the attackers had sun tags as their symbols. They were Equestrian guards alright, so that means the leaders here want me dead.

"Y-You killed them" Lyra sounded scared and surprised. I just shrugged and stepped over the body.

"They were gonna kill us whether I fired first or not" I justified. We were taught to kill before our enemy could kill us and that's something that stuck with me deeply.

"We should have tried to atleast talk our way out but I guess that's not gonna happen, we should get moving" Lyra suggested moving to the door. I couldn't agree more and followed her outside whilst checking the perimeter for enemy forces. We were gonna head North to a place called the 'Crystal Empire' it's libraries hold ancient knowledge used to teach unicorns like Lyra.

"You will need to get winter gear so we don't die of hypothermia you know" I chastised to her.

"What about you?" She turned to face me and I just patted my pack.

"I have a jacket in my pack I used as a blanket back home, it was warm like a pair of tits" I grinned at the memory of me and my platoon getting sent to Germany and the finest women came by making me wish I was a women sometimes. Wait no I need to focus on my mission! I shook my head and continued our march to our next destination.

We couldn't take the train as I would cause a stir and most likely there would be guards on the train. The Crystal empire was going to be a a week long hike unless we find a shortcut. I thought about cutting through the mountains but apparently dragons live there, yes fucking dragons exist here too it's bullshit and dumb. We were about to exit the forest when I spotted a group of ponies ahead, I grabbed Lyra and hid behind the tall grass.

"Unknown bodies at the twelve, my count is seven" I say to her peeking out with my nods. Lyra peeks over and quickly shoots back down.

"It's Twilight and her friends they are probably the ones who sent those guards in there!" Lyra whispered freaking out.

"You know I always could just..."I pointed to my rifle. Lyra smacked me across the helmet with a frown on her face.

"Are you crazy?!" She flabbergasted. I had to stifle a laugh and lowered my gun.

"You don't know the half of it lady, what should we do now?" My plan was shot down so now it's her turn.

"I know a spell that can project other ponies or some creatures but I need to have a visual version of them" She said. We could project a copy of me and have them chase after the hologram while we got the he'll out of dodge.

"Ok make a projection of me and use it to distract them and then we'll move out" she nodded and her horn lit up then I watched as a paler version of me just poofed into exsistance. I...it looked around before looking at me then saluted.

I gave an awkward salute back and was still shocked at how well made it was. The projection stood up and walked towards the group of ponies.

"Hey it's the thing that attacked Flutter Shy get it!" Skittles shouted before diving after it. The projection dodged the attack then ran towards the town with the others in tow. We quickly got up and ran across the large field towards the mountains. The night covered us like shadows and made us invisible to anyone.

I noticed Lyra was getting tired so we set up camp with a small fire. Lyra passed out as soon as she hit the ground, I moved her a little closer to the fire so she could stay warm. I opened up an MRE since I couldn't go out and hunt without leaving Lyra alone and possibly get captured. I started thinking about how I would go about being in this strange world and how I'd be in hiding for the rest of my time here. There's no telling how long I'd even be stuck here with all their magic bullshit and they can even fly which is pretty fucked in my favor.

The sound sound of the wind picking up put me on edge and made me clutch my rifle tighter. I always followed my instincts like we were taught, it even saved me a few times back when I was a grunt on the front lines. Me and my lieutenant along with five other marines were riding down a road and came to a fork, I originally wanted to go down the left road as we always do but a little voice inside said not to.

Lets go right sir

Why? We always go on the left

I have a bad feeling about it sir I can't explain

We missed four IEDs that day and not a single marine was killed. I missed those days of just sitting around and shooting at the local goat fuckers for fun. A smile crept onto my face and I pulled out a photo of my squad out of my pocket. Me and my friends from highschool all joined at the same time through the buddy system and managed to make through over 16 years of combat deployments. In the picture I was in the middle for being the tallest with my two friends on my sides and our lieutenant on our far left. Sleep was nagging at me so I put the photo in my pocket and used my pack as a pillow. I closed my eyes and waited for the nightmares to start.

"Your skills are working well for you" A voice said. I opened my eyes and saw Luna standing above me, I tried to kick her but my boot just faded through. I rolled over and pulled out my pistol and aimed st her head.

"What the hell do you want with me?" I hissed at her.

"I only wish to talk with you" She held a hoof up and two chairs poofed into exsistance. She sat down and nodded forme to sit. I kept my pistol trained on her and sat down.

"The fuck you want to talk about?" I asked.

"I have a proposition for you, if you come to Canterlot and help us we can guarantee your safety back to your home" She explained. I didn't buy it as we were almost ambushed by guards.

"You really think you can bullshit me bitch? You just want to experiment on me and God knows what else you plan on doing so no I will not go to Canterlot and fuck you" I stood up and aimed the pistol at her forehead. Just before I pulled the trigger my vision went white and I was back in Afghanistan.

"Gunny we got them on the run should we chase after them?" A marine asks. I look down from my humvee at the marine then at the retreating enemy.

"No corporal they'll lead us to a trap most likely let's rendezvous with Fox-6 and set up a defensive perimeter along the Southern embassy gate" I ordered him. The marine nodded before hoping in the drive side and turning us around.

"You and the human soldiers kill other humans. Why?" Lunas voice called out. I snapped out of the dream and looked at her.

"Stay out of my head!" I raised my pistol and pulled the trigger making everything go black.

Location:Dragon mount basin

I didn't get much sleep so today was slow for us. Lyra and I aren't even close to the Crystal fields since this mountain is in the was so now we are climbing around it to get across. So far I've yet to see a dragon which is my plan for the whole fucking trip, I couldn't focus due to my paranoia and lack of sleep. I don't know why I felt drained I've gone days without sleep and that was during a week long firefight in Mosul.

"You okay Marine?" Lura bumped my shoulder.

"Your princess won't stay out of my head, she keeps trying to play back old memories of my time as a grunt. I think she's trying to learn how I fight so they could kill me quicker" I fumbled over my words but she understood somehow. I felt a cold breeze his so I put my mask and goggles on as warmth.

"If we can get to the Crystal Library I could try to find a spell that protects your mind from invasions" She offered. I gladly accepted and we continued our march. I started to sing some cadence from boot camp and it confused the hell out of Lyra with most of the songs about killing and kicking ass.

I felt a strange feeling in my body as though I was paralyzed but could somehow still move. My knees felt like strings and I fell down, my body locked up like it was being held in place then the sound of wings could be heard.

"Marine come on we got to go now!" Lyra screamed. She lifted me up and fireman carried me on her back and ran full speed down the mountain side. I looked behind us and saw a blue pony flying at us. It was Luna and that pissed me off as she was the one fucking me up.

I lifted my M4 and began firing at her but with the running it was kinda hard. I took a deep breath and waited for my sights to be right above her left wing and pulled the trigger. Time slowed down as the bullet flew through the air and clipped her wing causing her to crash into the ground.

"I hit her!" I shouted to Lyra.

"Oh that's just great!" She yelled back sarcastically. I consider it a big win now that she can't fly.

"We should go back so I can finish her off" I suggested. Lyra used her magic to smack my helmet around my face.

We stopped at a broken barn near a dried river and hid inside. I was finally able to move again and set up a cover position on the window. A buzzing sound filled my ears and from our old position a squad of bug looking ponies. They seemed to be looking for something then Luna came out of the blue but a green fire engulfed her and another bug looking pony took her place.

"What the fuck?" I aimed down my sights and aimed at the bugs head. It turned to my direction and earned a bullet to the forehead, it fell like a fly and twitched around while its buddies fired green bolts at me.

I ducked behind cover and pulled out a fragile, I threw it right under them and it exploded in a beautiful green blaze of guts and glory. I waited a bit longer then stepped out to check the bodies, the bugs were made of chitin that protected their outer layers but wasn't strong enough to stop a .556 which is good for me now that I know their not strong and can be taken down easily.

"Lyra what are these things?" I poked the one that took Lunas form.

"Those are changlings, they reside in the badlands under queen Chrysalis's rule, changlings can change into anypony or creature it sees. She and Starlight Glimmer have some sort of hatered for each other but that's probably cause shes stopped Chrysalis a few times" She tapped her chin thinking. I pulled out my knife and cut off one of their ears and put it in my pocket for later. Lyra watched in horror but couldn't do anything to stop me, I wiped my green covered gloves off and we began walking to our original destination.

Time:1120
Location:Drake fields

The cold rocky fields of this place makes me feel like I'm in Ireland again when we stopped to refuel and we had a rock dodge ball fight with the Irish Soldiers. They were always drunk bastards but showed a good time. A loud roar pulled me out of my thoughts and I looked up to see what I never though I would in my entire life was a fucking dragon just flying on by with no fucks given. If my jaw could drop to the floor it would have, the dragon flew up to a cliff and dissapeard into a cave.

"You coming or what?" Lyra bumped my arm. I looked down at her and awkwardly smiled.

"I think I shit my pants but that could also be the bangers" I said reaching behind me. I was about to just shrugged it off but then a voice came over my comms.

"...this....Master....Moore...does anyone co..." Immediately I ripped my walkie out of my clip and pressed the button.

"Master Sergeant Moore this is Spear-1 can you hear me?" I quickly said into the walkie.

"Rea...I'm...snow" I couldn't understand what he was saying. I tried adjusting the antenna but to no avail.

"Fuck...Okay Master Sergeant if you can hear me stay away from any ponies I repeat stay away from the ponies over and out" I put the radio back in my belt clip and felt a wave of unease come over me.

"Who is Master Sergeant Moore?" Lyra asked.

"He's my old instructor from boot camp, I don't know how hes here but he said something about snow" I thought for a moment of what he was talking about then the Crystal Empire came to my mind. "There's a chance he could be at the Crystal Empire since the place has snow"

"Then we better get moving before your friends gets captured" Lyra began trotting across the field. I went into a jog by her side and prayed we'd get to him in time, my new mission now is to regroup with my old instructor before it's too late.

A Devil Dog and a breaking mind

Location:Unkown

"You can't hold the information inside you forever human!" The interrogator yelled before kicking me in the stomach and cracking a rib. I spat some blood out on him and smiled.

"Suck a dick pussy boy my grandma can beat me better than you" The pony used his horn to taze me, I clenched my teeth trying to hold in the pained screams.

"You can make this stop if you tell us where your friend is hiding and how these weapons work" He grabbed my bloodied head and slammed it on the table.

"You know my sister could probably rake all of you on and she's in the airforce" I chuckled.

"TELL US WHERE SHE IS OR I WILL BREAK EVERY BONE IN YOUR BODY!!" The pony screamed in my face.

"Eat shit and die" Is all I said. The pony then grabbed my knife from the table and approached me with it drawn. I steeled myself to embrace the coming pain and with in a few seconds my left eye was stabbed. I cried out and the pony stabbed me in the left thigh, I would die in this place and I was ready for it.

"Your pretty blue eyes would look good in a jar" the pony slurred. The door opened and a white pony with wings and a horn came in, I looked up at her and smiled sinisterly.

"Captain if you would leave me alone with the prisoner I think I know how to get information" she spoke in a voice of a kind mother that I hated. The pony saluted then left closing the door, the white pony stood infront of me and leaned closer. I backed up in the chair but it was no use her horn touched my head making everything go black.

"MARINE WAKE UP!!" Lyra shook me out of my sleep.

"What happened?" I looked around and we were in the makeshift tent.

"You were crying in your sleep and looked like you were in pain are you okay?" She had a look of worry in her eyes.

"I'm fine just had a bad dream is all" In all honesty is was a fucking nightmare, I've never had that bad of a dream before.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" She put a hoof on my arm, I just rolled back over and laid back down.

"No it's fine just go back to sleep Lyra" I closed my eyes and tried to sleep it off. We needed to find Master Sergeant and get to the Crystal Empire soon.

(Later)

The ice and snow crushed under my boots as I stomped through the snowy wasteland that lead to the Empire. My face was warm thanks to my mask and my goggles, my nods were still up and running which suprised me. We were a few miles away from the Empire but I still couldn't get a hold of my instructor.

"Master Sergeant this is Spear-1 do you copy?" I tried to reach him for the fifth time now but no answer. "Damnit he's probably burned"

"What do you mean burned?" Lyra asked.

"He was either caught or went radio silent and doesn't know we're coming my best bet is he got caught" I really hope it was the latter of the two it would be difficult trying to fight off an entire army by myself.

"You said your friend is the one who taught you how to fight and stuff maybe he's trying to avoid all contact in case others are looking for him as well" she pointed out. My instructor was like a second father figure to me since I was 10 all the way up to me becoming a raider he pushed me to do my best and I am not gonna let him down now.

We trudged through the snow and I could see a large spire that glowed like a beacon in the distance. I was about to notify Lyra of our close arrival but out of butt fuck nowhere a snow storm made its way over to us.

"What the fuck kinda shit is this?!" I shouted to the sky. The snow was so dense it darkened the area around us.

"We need to stick close and keep going!" Lyra shouted. I pulled her closer and used my nods to see through the dense dark snow. There was no scientific way for a storm like this unless we were in Oklahoma and even their weather was decent but random.

I could hardly see the spire ahead of us but hopefully it's closer, the storm is getting worse now and I'm starting to go numb. I pulled a flare out of my pack and ignited it to try and warm us up,I held it near Lyra so she could stay warm. My boots are freezing over thanks to them being steel toe, I should have worn an extra lair of socks.

"There's the portal!" Lyra pointed to the blue light that came into view. I picked her up and sprinted to the blue light crashing through it. The snow was gone and was replaced with grass and weird ass rocks.

I looked around and saw the spire surrounded by little rock houses and glowing ponies. I thought that was the weirdest part but then I looked at my hand and that bitch was glowing too. I looked to Lyra and even she was glowing holy shit, I thought I was on drugs but nope it's all real.

"Talk about shinning bright like a diamond" I muttered thinking about thats stupid song. I pulled out my binoculars and surveyed the city, the ponies were going about their day and the guards seemed busy, very busy. "There way too much activity here"

"The next Equestria games are coming so that could be it" Lyra thought but the guards were moving troops left and right as though their expecting someone.

"We need to hurry co-" Before I could finish the two rocks next to us bursted into two guards who were waiting for us. I shot the first guy and kicked the second one in the jaw knocking him out.

I looked back and a whole fucking platoon was coming our way. We couldn't survive the storm outside so we'd have to fight our way through

"What do we do?!" Lyra coward behind me. I grabbed Lyra and started running to a house.

"I'm getting you to the train and back to Ponyville, I need to find Master Sergeant and then I'll come back" I said getting a running start

"What if it was all a trick to get you here?" She asked and that idea was plausible but if he is here them I need to get him out.

"I can't risk leaving him here, don't worry I'll be fine just make sure you get to safety" I promised her. We ran past Crystal ponies who didn't pay us much mind until they say the guards on our asses.

It was just our luck a train was heading out of here, I went into maximum overdrive and booked it to the train. Once I was close enough I threw Lyra onto it and stopped, she looked back at me with worry but it was to late now I made my choice and I was gonna stick with it. I ran back to the giant spire in the middle of the city and took the stairs inside and up. I entered through some doors and ended up in a throne room where a white and pink pony sat, the pink one was holding what I think is a child.

"Shit..." I said under my breath. Guards entered the scene and blocked my only exit.

"Your the creature princess Celestia spoke of, you have caused some controversy over in Equestria. What's your name?" The white pony asked. My mind was going haywire with half saying go down fighting while the other said to chill the fuck out.

"Marine...A-Allan..." I cursed myself for giving away my name. I tried to keep a visual of both sides Incase someone tried something.

"Alright Mr.Allan my name is Shining Armor, from what I was told by my sister you are a soldier. You are troubled and confused I understand how it feels to have those thoughts" I knew what he was talking about it was the nightmares I have every night and the paranoia of others wanting to kill me.

"I won't let you experiment on me!" I stated backing up. My heart was threating to burst out of my chest.

Marine stand down! I could hear my old instructor yell inside my head. I lowered my my rifle and let it hang on the sling.

"We aren't going to hurt you we can help you but I need you to hand over your weapons for everyponies safety okay?" Two of his guards slowly moved closer to me. My training told me to listen but my mind screamed to fight.

After reaching a decision I reached up and unclipped my rifle and took out the magazine then unchambered the bullet. I laid it down then did the same for my pistol, the guards picked up my guns and put them in a box then took them down a hallway.

"Can we get you something to eat or drink?" Shining Armor offered. I wanted to eat something that's not an MRE but I don't want to be drugged by chance, but I dont have much of a chkuce now that they hands my guns.

"Do you make meat?" I asked keeping an eye on the guards.

"We did for when the Griffin ambassador came by I'm sure we can get something ready follow me" he lead me through a set of doors and into a room with a long table. I sat down at the farthest end while Shining Armor sat on the other side of me.

An hour of silence goes by and a server pony came in with a plate of steak. My mouth was drooling as he placed it in front of me, I took the fork and took a piece and hesitated to eat it for fear of it being a trap. I looked at Shining Armor who just sat there with a plain look. I took a deep breath before eating it.

"Can I ask you something questions?" I looked up at him and shrugged. I haven't passed out from the food so I guess I could talk with him atleast.

"Like what?" I say eating another piece.

"Why did you attack my sister and her friends?" I snorted at that question as I attacked alot of people while I was here.

"Who is your sister?" I tilted my head thinking.

"Her name is Twilight Sparkle she's the princess of friendship" I rolled my eyes remembering that chick. I swear she's fucking crazy.

"Oh yeah her, she's the nut job who said something about experimenting on me so I said fuck no" I said simply. I stopped eating and just stared at the plate. The sounds gunfire filled my ears and the screams of my marines shooting back at the Taliban was all I could hear.

"ALLAN!!" Shining Armor shouted waving his hoof around trying to get my attention. All the sounds just stopped instantly, I looked up at Shining Armor who looked worried. "Thought I lost you there, I've seen that look in your eyes from many ponies. The thousand yard stare is known by most slodiers usually from combat, you must have been through Tarturis before you got here" He said looking me up and down. I didn't know what this Tarturis was but I guess it's their version of hell and he's right about me going through it.

"It was a long time ago back in '04, I was in the second battle of Fallujah I with the 1st Battalion 5th Marines, I was just nineteen when I went there it was fucking hell;" I began. I dont know why I was talking about it I guess since Shining Armor being a soldier its the best I got instead of those shrinks. "We had to fight off the Iraqi insurgents before they could take the city again, we fought for months and even on my Corps birthday so instead of partaking in parties we did what every marine dreams of, we kicked ass and took names"

"You said it was a long time ago and you were nineteen,how old are you now?" He skunded rather surprised that a nineteen year old fought they must have a age restriction larger here.

"I'm thirty four as of now so I've been in the service for sixteen years now" I leaned back and thought of the fond memories of when we would call in a A-10 and watch the sand fuckers turn into pink mist.

"Sixteen years of fighting must've had a toll on you. Have you considered retirement at all?" Shining Armor was amazed at how I just kept fighting for so long and I'm not surprised we marines are pretty cool.

"I have and it would only happen if I was disabled or dead, If I was disabled I would open a donut shop for veterans and host Sunday service" I had it all planned out in the end. I didn't plan on marriage cause that leads tho kids and I'm not one for kids.

"That sounds nice for somepony who's been fighting so long" He smiled at me. I felt a smile creep onto my face too, I didn't think these ponies here would take my actions to kindly but Shining Armor here hasn't done anything to warrant my wrath so I guess he's cool.

"Sorry about shooting two of your guys earlier they surprised me and my reactkon was to give them lead" I say with not much emotion.

"Don't worry they were protected by a spell I casted incase of an event like this or if we ever need to go to war, they are probably back on their hooves right now" Shining Armor waved it off.

"Huh..okay" I say in surprise.

I finished my food and Shining Armor offered to help me find My Master Sergeant. I explained how he might be here or out in the snow fields and Shining Armor promised to help find him. I felt a slight respect for the pony for that, after all I've killed a few of them but that was for defensive measures. I remembered Lyra and how I chucked her info the train, I know she had her own radio so I decided to contact her.

"Lyra do you copy?"

"Oh my Celestia Marine are you okay I haven't heard from you in hours?!" She yelled into the radio. I rubbed my ears out of pain.

"My names not actually Marine it's...Allan" I said quietly. Lyra was silent for a moment then replied.

"Ooh you did the secret identity move that's pretty smart but anyways are you okay" She took it better than I thought so there's a plus.

"I'm fine I just talked with that Shining Armor guy and he's actually offering to help find my friend unlike Equestria they aren't trying to use me for experiments" I scoffed the last part. I really didn't want to go back to Equestria until I can find a way home.

"So they aren't going to arrest you for you know...shooting a few guards while you were there?" I could tell she wasn't to happy about me doing that but it's all good.

"No turns out they had some shield magic stuff that saved them so I'm in the clear but they have my guns right now I'll try to get them back soon, Allan out" I put my walkie back into my pouch and sent back to Shinning Armors throne room.

I was about to open the doors when I heard a conversation go on from the other side. It sounded like Shining Armor was talking to someone.

"He actually believed that transm was his friend and has trusted us fdom what I could tell" I took that last part as an insult. I wasn't losing it I'm just very cautious about things.

"If we have to we can use magic on him then he could possibly save Equestria from its impending destruction without issue. We were lucky to use a fake transmission of one of his comrades to get him here" A females voice said. I peeked throught the crack of the door and spotted a white tall pony with wings and a horn, She had a Sun on her ass and flowing hair even though theres no wind. I stepped back and started thinking of a plan.

"Lyra was fucking right good God why didn't I listen!" I said to myself. I heard hoof steps get closer to the door so I made a dash down the hall and slammed into a pair of guards. I didn't stop and kept running, I remembered them taking my weapons through here so they must be close.

I stopped at a door that looked like it belonged to Shinning Armor. I went inside amd I was right this was his room and I spotted the box next to his bed. I went over to it and noticed it had a pad lock on it, I grabbed the certain poles and started slamming it on the lock. After my fifth attempt it broke finally, I opened it and pull out my rifle and pistol.

"Oh babies I'm so sorry daddy will never let you go again I promise" I said to the inanimate objects. I popped in a mag and felt the sensation of loading it in the chamber. I stood up and was about to walk out when I spotted somthing from the dark corner of the room.

A pair of blue eyes looked at me with fear, I raised my rifle at it just to be safe.

"Don't do anything stupid now step out of the shadow" I ordered. The eyes moved into the dim light and showed the pink pony from earlier holding her child. They must have came in here to rest or something and noticed me.

"Please I don't mean any harm I was changing my child when you walked in" she defended. I eyed her for weapons but she had none so she wasn't a threat.

"Alright look I already know y'alls little game but since I have some morals I'll leave you alone but if you say a single fucking word I will come back" I opened the door and left the room. I stepped into the hallway and froze as Shining Armor and the white pony stood at the other end of the hallway.

"I see he's got his weapons back" the white one commented.

"I thought he trusted us enough to leave them" he whispered back. I looked back and down the hallway was a window that hopefully wasn't to high up. I used one hand to reach for the rope tied to my pack and clipped it to my scaling line.

They moved forward and I darted to the window pushing a maid out of my way. I heard them calling to me but ignored them as I was closing in on my exit. I jabbed the steak into the Crystal hinge and jumped, I grabbed the rope as I landed on the wall. I rapled down as fast as I could but then I ran out of rope.

"Oh jeez thanks uncle Sam for not giving me a longer rope" I muttered. I looked down and I was about 20 feet above the ground, I could see a cart with apples in it across the street if I could just get enough momentum I could landed in it to break my fall.

I started pushing myself awayfrom ther wall to get farther and farther then heard Shining Armor above me.

"Allan we just want to talk!" He yelled down.

"Talk to my lead bitch!" I fired off a round near his head making him duck. I jumped one more time before unclipping my rope and fell into the cart. My pack took most of the force but Goddamn did that hurt.

I fell out of the cart and started running down the streets too find the train station. I grabbed my walkie and pressed the button to talk to Lyra.

"Lyra this Allan you were right it was a trick Goddamnit I'm heading to the train station to try and get the fuck out of here how copy" I could hear the sounds of armored ponies behind me so I fired a few rounds at them. "Eat bullets motherfuckers!" I hit three of them causing them to collapse. Just then Lyra answered the call.

"Be careful when you come back those guards you killed weren't actually Equestrian they were bandits from a gang outsode of town ponies here still want you arrested for assaulting one of the elements though" she said not sounding surprised.

"Well that's reassuring I'll be back ETA 30 mikes Allan out" I hopped over a wooden fence and was now in the train yard. I looked around and spotted a conductor about to leave.

"Next stop Ponyville then Canterlot!" He announced. I ran to the caboose and hopped onto it as It was departing. I opened the door and it was just an empty cart for storage, I saw the guards arrive but they didn't see me. I sat against the wall and laughed at my luck that seemed to be doing wonders today. I sat there and waited for the next stop with hopes of finding a way home soon.

Y'all should watch "A grunts life" on YouTube or VETtv.com its pretty fire my dudes-❤Souls

A marines luck is usualy 50/50...well when it comes to MREs that is

Location: Afghanistan, Kabul
Time:1455

"Ok gents so HVT is meeting with some shithead IED maker to fuck up our boys up North, meeting takes place in the old 2-A car shed next to the deadman highway around 2240" Lt explained. We needed to get the HVT alive and deliver him back to our FOB and get information out of him.

"I can take 3rd platoon around the East field and with the tall grass to hide us we can catch them off guard. This building to the south can give the sniper team a good amount of coverage and able to watch our asses" I said pointing to the big white house. We were gonna waste these mother fuckers as soon as we got our target, theres no point in taking the others prisoner.

Lt checked his watch for the time. "Alright we leave at 2200 be ready for small defenses when we arrive"

"Oorah sir"

Time:2230
Location:Afghanistan, Deadmans highway

"Fox-1 this Spear-1 we have enemy contact 30 yards out I count 3 bodies should we waste them?" I whisper into the walkie.

"Affirmative waste those sons of bitches"

Me and two other marines popped them in the heads then moved up. We hid the bodies in the grass then waited next to the building. I looked down and saw a red dot aimed at my dick, I looked up with a bemused look.

"You think Your funny don't ya?" I say to the sniper team.

"You think they would give you a replacement?" They chuckled over comms. I shook my head then moved to the power box around the back of the house.

"Alright boys get ready," I pulled down the lever and the lights cut out leabing us in pitch black. "Spear-1 going dark" I lift down my nods and open the back door.

First tango was on the wall but two shots to the chest sent him to Allah. An enemy machine gunner tried to shoot us but his gun jammed leaving him to deal with my second marines stock, I moved around the car and shot a tango on the stairs and signalled for the others to stack up.

"Spear-1moving up"

We slowly made our way up the stairs and spotted the HVT holding a gun to a women's head. I held up my fist ordering the others to stop, the HVT pressed the gun tl the crying womens head.

"naeud 'aw 'uqtulaha!" He shouted. I didn't speak Arabic so I guess he he called my mom a cunt.

"I don't speak scribbles retarded now put the fucking gun down or I will beat your shit in!" I ordered moving closer. The women moved a bit trying to get away and left the HVTs leg open. I took that chance and racked him in the leg, he screamed in pain as he fell to the ground. I ran up and kicked the pistol away from him and tied his hands with zip ties.

"Fox-6 this is Spear-1 we have the HVT in custody over"

"Copy 1 we have sent the extraction helo to you 6 out"

One of the marines came up the stairs to collect the target "Gunny is evacuation on it's way?"

"Yep lets get this piece of shit out of here" I handed him the target and they took him outside. The crying women was in the corner of the room still terrified out of her mind. I walked over to her and squated down, I took off my helmet and laid it down in front of me as a sign of peace. "It's okay you dont have to worry about him any-" She took off her hijab to reveal herself to be Luna.

I fell back in surprise and raised my rifle then fired round after round into her screaming out of rage.

My watch alarm wemt off waking me up from my dream, I rubbed my eyes and threw my legs over the bed. It was a bitch to get back here due to the increased security, Lyra was paid a visit by Twinkie again and had some suspicion about her but luckily didn't come upstairs to me dead on the bed.

I went downstairs and entered the kitchen where Lyra was cooking breakfast. She looked over at me and smiled, I set my rifle against the table and sat down.

"Nightmares again?" Lyra asked. I nodded slowly before yawning quietly. "I'm sorry that we couldn't get to the library"

I waved it off. "It's fine Lyra we'll find another way but I think it's time I start working alone" She looked at me with sadness.

"B-But why we're such a great team?"

"I almost got you caught and who knows what they'll do to you if they found out you helped me, I don't want you to get hurt because of me" I explained to her. With the extent of tricming us into going to the empire only God knows what they'll do to her. "I can contact you every few days but I can't stay for any longer"

Lyra brought over the pancakes and eggs then sat down across from me. I knew she was upset but it's the right choice and it will keep her safe, it's the least I can do since she's helped me so far. We ate breakfast and after that I washed the dishes and went upstairs to pack my trash. I looked at my rig and noticed the mags were full again, I rubbed my eyes to make sure I wasn't crazy but they were full again. I decided to not ask questions and put my rig on then my helmet.

I tightened my boots and went back down stairs, I sat on the couch and looked as the map. The city of Canterlot was the home of the rich ponies and the princesses, There's a country out east called Griffin Stone and I'm 90 percent sure there's griffins there so fuck that place from what Greek history says they eat humans. There was a country called Saddle Arabia I almost shit my pants reading that. There was a town out west called Appleloosa it looked like some old western town that could be a place to go until things die down.

"Have you figured out where your gonna go?" Lyra asked from the doorway.

I nodded and pointed to Appleloosa. "Yep I'm going south again and if luck is still on our side I will find answers that won't involve me getting captured by ponies"

"Well then I guess this is goodbye..." Lyra solemnly said. I stood up and walked over to her.

"It's for both of our safety, I need to get going before ponies here wonder why your always stuck in here" I picked up pack and rifle then went to the back door. "Thank you for helping me Lyra at least I know I can trust a pony"

She smiled and nodded. "No problem Allan just be sure to call when you can"

"You got it" I went out the back door and crept out of town.

Time:1120
Location: outskirts of Appleloosa

I was rucking it a good while then decided to take a break on this nice rock I found. It was hot like Afghanistan on a Tuesday out here, I laid back and stretched my arms making them pop.

"Ahm tellin ya Mac this Apple sale was the best we had so far" A familiar country voice said.

"Eeyup" said a deeper voice.

I shot up and they noticed me sitting on the rock, we stared at each other for what felt like forever before the Orange pony with a cowboy hat spoke up.

"Uh..howdy feller" She greeted awkwardly.

I just halfassed a wave. "Hello"

"You enjoying the nice hot weather?" She asked wiping away sweat from her head.

I shrugged. "Not exactly but it could be worse"

"Yeah well ahm Apple Jack and this is mah brother Big Mac" She introduced. I then remembered her voice from a few days ago when they came by my camp. "What's your name feller?"

"Uhm...Allan" I answers unsure if it was the best course of action.

Apple Jack reached into her cart and tossed me an Apple. I caught it with one hand and looked at her.

"Oh thanks"

She nodded. "Not to worry partner we have plenty of these puppies come on Mac let's get back home"

"Eeyup" The red pony pulled the cart along with his sister and they dissapeard into the distance.

I bit into that Apple and good God was it delicious, its like those maroon apples but sweeter. I finished it all and yes I did eat the core of the apple I've learned to be grateful for what is put on my plate. I hopped off the rock and continued walking to the town that was just over this hill. I kicked a rock on accident into the dead shrubs next to me and heard a loud 'ting'.

I looked over the shrub and my jaw metaphorically speaking hit the fucking ground. The sleek tan metal with the mounted .50 and pristine looking tires. I pushed through the shrubs and went to the driver side door, it was unlocked when I pulled the handle and smelled like a new car. I looked around for the keys and found them in the glove box, I was like a private in his first mission being all giddy and excited.

"So this is my reward for that time I donated at church, neat." I put the keys in the ignition and turned it. The roar of the engine gave me a slight freedom boner. I looked around in the back to see if there was more shit, there was an old black velcro binder and a green weapons case.

I crawled into the back and used my knife to pop open the weapons case. Inside was a M40A5 and a HK121, I felt my freedom boner go to full max as I touched the weapons that's helped claimed so many lives. I saw that next to them were five mags and five box mags fully loaded, I would save these for a later time.

I closed the case and hopped up into the driver seat and gave it a little rev then slowly drove it out if the ditch. I wondered how the locals would react to the freedom machine but maybe I can just say it's a motor cart or some shit. I drove to the town and to my surprise no one really cared I got a few strange looks but other than that they went on with their day. I parked infront if a store called "Appleloosa Goods and Equipment" I got out and locked the doors although the gunners stand was open I'm sure they would go near it. I checked the area for guards but none cohld be seen, I guessed they had sheriffs like the old West did and went inside.

"Howdy welcome to Appl-" The clerk stopped and stared at me in confusion. "Whoa ah have never seen you before stranger if it's not rude to ask what are ya?"

"Names Allan I'm...from up North" I lied. The pony just nodded and pulled out a ledger book.

"Well Mr Allan ahm Giddy Horseshoe and welcome to Appleloosa Goods and Equipment, I can get you anything you need just as long as you got the bits" He smiled.

I didnt know what bits were but I guess it's their currency. "I'm not really familiar with bits our currency up North were paper money" I said pulling out my wallet and showed him honest Abe. He looked at it then scratched his beard, I was amazed ponies could grow beards.

"We have a foreign trade store just a door over I'm sure they can help you there" he informed.

"Thanks I'll be right back" I went back outside and walked over to the other building. I wonder if they even accepted US dollars but might as well try.

I walked in and an old pony lady looked up from her book and looked at me with a small smile. "Hello deary how can I help you" She had the voice of a loving grandma that could make even a SEAL melt.

"I was wondering if I could transfer my money for bits or however that works" I pulled out my ID and cash then out it

"Oh well let me see what I can do" She looked at my ID and that's when I realized my face was of Me making a retarded look as a joke. She looked up at me and I just looked away acting like I don't notice it.

After almost 30 minutes of her stamping papers and other shit I finally got my ID back and a bag of gold.

I looked at the bag then back at her."Uh is this real gold?"

"Yes those are bits it's our currency here" she said. I just shrugged at took the bag of gold with me thanking her.

I went back to the goods store and bought some nonperishable foods and a newer longer rope along with a sleeping bag. Giddy carried the stuff to the back of the humvee and I helped load it in. I thanked him and hopped back into the driver seat and drove farther south. I pulled out the black velcro binder and saw a bunch if CDs in it from country to rap and rock. I put in a disk and it suprisingly played. I looked at the map and there was an old temple out in the dessert that had a unicorns head above it meaning either it's related to the ponies or death.

"Fuck a life without risk is not one I'd live"

(2 days later)

It felt like I was back in Afghanistan again with all the sand and hot weather. I was so used to it I basically called it home cause that's what the Marine Corps was to me, all my brothers and and sisters in arms we were like family. My parents hated the idea of me enlisting into the military but I could understand why I was their only child, I just didn't want to sit in some dead end job as a clerk I wanted to serve my country since I was 9 years old it was the only dream I had.

I popped in another CD this time was some rap stuff, I wasn't much of a fan of it but some of the song writers I did enjoy. As I was singing along to a song an explosion went off I'm front of the humvee causing me to stop.

"SHIT AMBUSH!!" I turned around to face my marine but remembered I was alone. I crawled up to the .50 and pulled the charging handle back and scanned for any hostile. "Come on you sons of bitches" I said under my breath.

Just over a dune to my right a platoon of Griffins came flying and running towards me. I opened fire and cut them down to shreds, the shot arrows at me but I was protected but the steel frames and visor. A Griffin landed on my hood and tried to grab me but was met with a 1911 to the skull. I continued to fire until none were left even twitching before checking the bodies.

I aimed my rifle at them as I kicked their corpses, one of them had a bag around his waist so I grabbed it and searched it. Inside was a bag of bits and a few small black bombs along with an envelope. I grabbed it and opened it up, the seal was of a griffin with a sword and a crown so it must be important.

"Dear Lieutenant Razor Crest, we have reports of a strange creature with the ability to take on the Equestrians I request you bring it to me for inspection. Be warned that this creature has weapons that can kill anything in an instant, Emperor Grey Blade"

I stared at the paper for a few more seconds before looking at he body. "Man fuck you and fuck your emperor I'll kill you all...fucking cunts" I mumbled the last part. I was about to hop back in the humvee till someone decided to groan to my 12, I looked up and saw a griffin trying to get up.

"Oh well look at what we have here I thought I killed you"

"Please I can pay you" he pleaded.

"I don't want your money, you made a big mistake thinking you can attack a Marine get away with it;" I pulled out my pistol and aimed it between his eyes. I pulled the trigger and killed him, I checked each body to make sure they were dead them hopped back into my humvee and continued driving.

Location: Forbidden Jungle
Time:1800

The jungle was like Vietnam with all the hot and humid air and the idea of something hiding in the trees. The trees darkened the area so I had to use my humvee lights to see. I took off my helmet due to how fucking hot it was and poured some water on my head and down my shirt, the AC worked but wasn't as helpful I knes the giant temple was near by since you could see it from the dessert. I drove through some giant leaves and the pyramid temple was right there, I stopped at the steps and turned of the humvee. I got out and went around back to get the HK I wanted more fire power and this had thhe right amount for me.

I scanned the area and it was very quiet for a jungle which put me on edge. I made my up the steps towarss the stone doorway at the top and saw it was pitch black in there, I pulled down my nods and walked inside with the hopes of finding something to help me.

(3rd POV)
Location: Twilights Castle
Time: 1850

Celestia paced back and forth thinking of what to do now that the human escaped again. She was so close to finally getting to him but failed due to her lack skills compared to the human.

"Sister I don't think he will see reason after we blatantly lied to him and invaded his mind forcing him to relive horrible events" Luna pointed out and she was right they had made a bad impression on the human.

Celestia sighed and nodded. "I know Luna I just wish there was a way to convice him to come to us. I just wish we had more time to talk with him"

Apple Jack raised her hoof as she still had no idea who they were talking about. "Uh princess ah still dont know who y'all are talkin about, who is this creature yer lookin for?"

"Oh yes my apologies miss Apple Jack I have forgotten about that," Celestia shook her head at her forgetful thinking."This creature is called a human, they don't have fur nor look like ponies instead they wear clothes and even eat meat this particular human is a soldier from a broken war torn world. He has seen many tragedies and has killed other humans during his time"she explained. The others shivered at that thought.

"Man we almost caught him too but he just dissapeard once I grabbed him!" Rainbow Dash pouted. Celestia knew of that event and figured somepony used a clone spell as a trick and that means a pony helped him.

"Why is it so hard to find a creature wearing alot of tan clothes and a helmet with black sticks that shoot fire?!" Twilight whined puting her head down.

Apple Jack chuckled looking embarrassed. "Ah uh...met a feller earlier who looked kinda like that but seemed nice, me and Mac were walking back from Appleloosa after our sale and found him laying on a giant boulder just enjoying the hot weather"

Celestia grabbed her shoulders "WHERE DID HE GO?!"

"I think he w-went s-south your highness" he stuttered scared of the princesses power.

Celestia stood uo strait and made her way to the doors. "I shall lead an entire company of guards to search for him and Twilight I want you and the elements to find the pony that helped him escape amd see what they know"

"You think somepony helped him?" She asked looking at her friends.

Celestia turned her head to face her student. "Humans don't have magic they dont need nor do they care for it" then walked out.

Twilight perked up at that. " How can humans live without magic?"

Celestia shook her head. "I do not know Twilight but they have made it far without it"

Twilight thought for a moment of who could have possibly helped the human, it had to be a unicorn with human experience to be able to clone the human almost perfectly. There was only one pony she could think of and it was Lyra.

She stood up and trotted to the doors. "Come on girls we have to go pay Lyra a visit"

Location:Lyras house
Time:1920

Twilight knocked on Lyras door and after a few seconds she answered and was surprised to see her.

"Oh hey Twilight how's it going?" She greeted with a smile.

Twilight returned the smile but only half heartedly. "I'm doing swell I just came by to ask you a few questions, may we come in?"

Lyra moved out of the way and let the main 7 in. Lyra knew what was about to go down but acted as though nothing was wrong.

"So how's your human hunt going Twilight? I'm telling ya humans don't exist here but maybe in another universe" She cocked.

Twilight raised an eyebrow but shrug it off. "No I have been thinking and a few nights ago I noticed something strange. After Celestia said humans don't have magic I started to piece things together and a unicorn was the pony who helped him run away;" She looked at Lyra with a conceding frown. "The unicorn would've had to be around the human for a while to be able to make a clone spell of him and you haven't been out of your house much so I was wondering"

Lyra swallowed hard ready to break for the stairs and warn Allan. All eyes were kn her now making her nervous to the core. She stepped back and Twilight stood up, Lyra knew she was in trouble and so was Allan she had to tell him.

"W-Well I have been working on my project gift for bonbon for a w-while and so I stayed I side for the most part" She knew Twilight could see thekigh the lie she spewed so she made a break for the stairs with the others going after her.

Lyra slammed her door and used her magic to block off the others from coming in even with spells. She picked up the walkie and pressed the button to talk to Allan.

"Allan its me Lyra they know about us I reapeat they know about us!" She cried into the black box.

"....can't...run....pyramid..." Is all she could hear. She knew he was already at the temple so it must have messed up the reception.

After a minute of hitting the door her spell gave way and they were inside now. She hid the walkie behind her as she backed up to her window. Twilight stepped forward looking rather upset, not mad mkre like disappointed.

"Lyra we just need to know where he went so we can help him, he's not well"

"I know what your plans are for him Twilight you all just want to use him for war cause you think that's all he knows " Lyra stomped her hoof on the floor. " well your wrong he's a kind and caring individual, even if he's broken that doesn't stop him from doing what's right"

Rainbow Dash scoffed at that. "If he's so kind why did he attack me and Twilight the first time we saw him?"

"Well if you just tried to talk to him instead of hunting him down like a monster maybe he would have been nicer to you!" Lyra shouted. She was angry that they are just lying about wanting to help him.

"Lyra please we need him to help us with the Griffin empire or else Equestria could be gone forever" Twilight stated.

"Why should he help? He never got a choice to come here and is now being hunted like an animal" She countered.

Twilight was about to rebuttal that but then thought about it. They have treated him as an animal out of it's cage and he was only trying to defend himself even if it meant to go to extreme measures. She was so focused on wanting to see how the human worked she didn't take into account that it was just like them.

Then Flutter Shy stepped in. "He's scared and confused so we must show him that we mean him no harm" the others nodded in agreement.

"But the princess is looking for him with a big search party and I don't think the human will take to kindly to that don't you think?" Rarity wondered.

With the human not liking ponies it could lead to a massacre and its a high chance the human will come out on top. After everyone settled down they went back down stairs to discuss more of the situation. Lyra didnt know if they were to be trusted or not but she didn't have much of a choice now. She took the map down stairs with her and sat in a chair.

"So how do find this Human if he is in the middle of the dessert that place is huge and there's only eight of us?" Starlight asked.

She laid out the map and leaned over the table."If you really are wanting to help him then we must get to him before the princess does" she pointed to the Frobbiden Jungle. "He went to the pyramid to find a relic of some kind that he belives can get him home, I know nothing about it so I dont know what he will find"

"Well the human-" before Twilight could finish Lyra cut her off.

"His name is Allan..." She said irritated at them calling him just 'the human'.

"Sorry" She sheepishly smiled. "Celestia is desperate to get to Allan and she's going to drastic measures in order to save Equestria, but if we can get to him first we could probably convince him not to slaughter all of Equestria" She nervously laughed at the end. The others were on board with it but Lyra wondered if Allan would forgive her for this.

(Allans POV)

Location: Pyramid steps
Time:0700

I sat on the steps with mg head on my knees. The whole place was empty with not even a coffin in there, I basically wasted my time in there for hours on end.

I looked up to the sky and groaned. "Come on man help me out here we were doing so good" My luck wasn't so lucky this time.

It was dark out and the cool air swept in keeping me nice and cool. I decided to rest for tonight in the back of the humvee and would move out at 0600. I climbed into the back and made sure the hatch was locked before hitting the rack. Sleep took over as soon as I laid down and I faded into the darkness.

"SIR WE'RE BEING SURROUNDED!!" A voice screamed. My eyes shot open and infront kf me was a pony wearing a marpat uniform with his gear.

I didnt understand what was going on"What?"

"The Equestrians are closing in sir we wont last much longer" He pulled me up and went over to the ruined wall. "We only have 7 guys left and low on ammo, evacuation wont be able to get to us in time"

I looked down and my HK was laying there I picked it up and stood by the wall where 5 other ponies looked like hammered shit. The sounds of a voice calling out to us could be heard from our West.

"Human and human sympathizers you are trapped here, give up now and maybe we'll spare you"

"Fuck You!" One off the ponies shouted back. I was surprised that they even knew curse words.

The sounds of roaring ponies all around us were getting closer. I peeked over and golden armored ponies charging through the battle field towards us. I raised my LMG and opened fire onto the golden horde. The other ponies did the same go in to other parts of the ruined building and firing upon the enemy. Bullets penetrated their armor and it was usuless to keep going for them.

"Victory or death!" I shouted to them. Yellow beams shot past my head, I could feel the heat from them burn across my face.

One of the pony marines was blasted into pieces faith blood going everywhere. I reloaded my gun and took up a new position in the door way that was blocked partially by debris. I opened fire on a Pegasus and my bullets just ripped him apart, an explosion went off behind me and we lost 2 more guys now there were 4 of us left. We backed into a small defensive circle and waited for them to come inside.

"Well sir this is it" one of the ponies chuckled.

I nodded and readied for them to push inside. The horde of ponies were gunned down left and right not gaining any ground on us. Yellow beams flew past us and took out another pony marine. I backed up and now it was just me and one other pony just fighting to our last bullet. We ran out of ammo so we used our knifes, once they broke we used our fists amd hoofs. I used my helmet as a club to beat their heads in. I felt a beam of hot energy hit me back sending me forward into the mud, I pulled myself up and turned around to see the last pony marine getting impaled.

My hand was on a shovel so I picked it up and dug it into the ponies back then trudged towards the others. Blood and mud covered my face making me look like a monster to them. I whacked the next pony in the face breaking his neck, the others charged at me with their swords. The closest pony tried to stab me with his spear but I caught it in my hand blood flowing down my hand. I swung the shovel into his frint leg then decapitated him. I was lifted by their magic but I threw the shovel at the unicorn and it landed in his eye, I was dropped onto the ground hard I felt my ribs crack.

I rolled on to my back and looked around to find another weapon. There were only rocks near me so I reached over and grabbed the biggest one I could get. I stood up but was tackled by a pony, we struggled for a bit before I rolled on top and started bashing his face with the rock. I screamed out of rage as I hit him harder and harder, the ponies face was no longer recognizable and that satisfied me.

My body ached and my head screamed for me to lay over and die but I refuse to give in to these ponies. I weakly stood up and limped over to a dead pony and grabbed his sword, I gave it a few swings before crawling over the wall and stood in front of the army of Equestrian ponies. I could see the fear in their eyes as they didn't expect an angry Marine.

The ponies stepped to the side as to make way for the white pony from the Crystal Empire. She stepped towards me slowly.

"I wont be your puppet witch!" I shouted.

She smirked."Then I shall take you myself" Just then she flew towards me with great speed. I thrusted the blade at her but my vision went white as something hit the humvee startling me awake.

"Fuck...Fuck...Goddamnit" I was sweating from the nightmare. It got worse when something tapped on the glass windows.

"Allan? Allan its me Lyra!"

"Lyra?" I whispered. I grabbed my pistol and popped open the back end ready to waste a mother fucker.

As it opened I was face to dace with Lyra who looked happy to see me. I was tired as shit so I couldnt say the same, I fell out kf the trunk and lazily stood up.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked. I looked past her and saw the 7 ponies behind her. I grabbed Lura and put her behind me and aimed my pistol at them. "What the hell are you all doing here!?"

The yellow pony hid behind the pink one who just had a big ass fucking smile on her face. Skittles looked ready for a fight do I know who to take out first. Just then Twinkie raised a hoof shaking her head.

Lyra grabbed my arm. "No Allan they aren't gonna hurt you they just want to talk!" I looked at her and she seemed to be telling the truth. I reluctantly lowered my weapon but didn't holster it in case the wanted an early meeting with God.

"Try and fuck up then I will kill each of you" I threatend. "What the hell do you want?"

They all looked to Twinkie who sighed and stepped up. I watched her every movement and if her horn hit up I'd break it amd gut her with it.

"The Griffin Empire has being getting restless with us and have attacked a small town North west of Starlights old village" She explained.

"So we have a common enemy;" I leaned back against the humvee humming. "As the old saying goes 'The enemy of my enemy is my friend' but that refers to Lyra not you" I nodded to Lyra.

The 7 ponies sat around in a small circle I guess to do some pass and ask shit. I rolled my eyes and hopped onto the humvee to have the high ground over them.

"So I have a question who the fuck is that white pony bitch I saw at the Crystal Empire?" I asked Lyra.

"That would be princess Celestia she is princess Lunas and the one aho is hunting you down with a big search party" Lyra confirmed. I furrowed my eyes but didn't say anything.

"She really means well but in times like these I guess it can make even the kindess ponies a little on edge" Twinkie nervously laughed. I shot her a glare and she went silent then Skittles spoke up.

"I don't see why we are even talking to you You killed other-" before she could finish I pointed my pistol at her and stood up.

"You don't even know the worst I've done to protect my country so I suggest you shut the fuck up before I turn your ass into grass"

The yellow Pegasus went in between us to stop me from killing Skittles. "Please guys don't fight we just need to find some common ground," She looked up at me with a smile. "My name's Flutter Shy and I'm sorry about what you had to go through to protect your home" she was the nicest so far but I didn't give a fuck.

"Don't be, I signed up for it and I knew what I was gonna do" I sat back down but glared at Skittles. "Now what the fuck do you want from me and if it's my guns I will kill you"

Before any of them could speak the white pony Celestia accompanied by over a hundred guards behind her.

"Found you"

Okay gamers so I changed how our boy Allan hears shit so when you see ** that's when he hears the past voices in his head.

*meanwhile in the office*

LtCol-"Kobe you're making me nervous"

Me after making a boogaloo joke-"my bad sir"

LtCol-"You know what I do to those who make me nervous?"

Me chuckling-"no sir"

LtCol-"I kill them"

Me laughing my ass off-"Oh"

The Marine who broke

No one moved an inch as I had my .50 ready to fucking massacre them. The guards looked scared shitless while Celestia had a kinda crazy look in her eye.

"My name's princess-".

"I know who you are bitch" I was stsrting to get nervous with all the guards here. I coulding tell if there were more or not.

"Then you know why I'm here correct?" She Asked smiling widely. "I can promise you no pony will hurt you"

I didn't say anything as I didn't want to talk to her anymore. Lyra was in the humvee since once Celestia arrived I threw her inside to protect her, I leaned back and used one hand to give her the keys.

"Lyra on the right side of the steering wheel is a metal slot I want you to put that Kesey in it then turn it forward," I instructed slowly. After a minute of intense quiet the engine roared to life giving the guards a good scare.

Lyra then poked her head out the window. "Kobe why don't we see what she has to say first?"

"She brought a fucking miniature company here just to talk? Yeah fucking right I'm not retarded Lyra" I butted. I was about to tell her to put tbis bitch in reverse but then the sound of a wings above caight my attention.

I look up to see a guard trying to lower himself above me quietly. I pulled out my listol and popped him in the head then opened fire on to the others. Most of the guards backed off or tried to dodge the bullets while the front of them were gunned down. Celestia fired beams of yellow at my humvee but it just bounced right off, I started firing at her and she took to the skies. I trailed her and clipped her wings making her fall to the ground, her guards rushed forward to protect their leader. I had to hand it to them dispite their losses they continued to push forward.

Twinkie and her friends were all frozen in fear at the events that are taking place right now. Arrows covered in some kind of green mist flew by my head it smelled like alcohol, they were trying to disable me. I shot a few more ponies before Skittles decided fo be a hero and grabbed me.

"No one hurts the princess!" She screamed trying to pull me out of the humvee.

I pistol smacked her in the head trying to get her off. "Get the fuck off me or I'll kill you too!" I threatened. She didn't let up so I shot her in the hind leg.

"Rainbow!!" The others shouted.

"Talk shit get hit bitch!" I loomed down at Lyra who was in the front seat. "Lyra step on the long peddle under the wheel!"

She was shivering in fear."O-Okay!" She stepped on the peddle sending us backwards..well for Me it was forward into the crowd of guards. We ran over a few but I climbed down and moved Lyra out of the way and shifted into drive.

I whipped us around and put the peddle to the fucking metal as We were now being chased. The arrows bounced off like little pebbles, I thought this piece of metal was basically indestructible.

"Allan we're gonna be in so much trouble for this!" Lyra cried curled up in a ball.

I laughed. "Trust me Lyra I've been through worse I once stole a tank from the Taliban as a joke then blew up their village!" I sheded a tear at that memory.

(Flashback)

Location: Afghanistan, Ak-Bolak
Time:1233

"Sir are you sure this is a good idea?" A marine asked me.

I was trying to starting the tank. "Fuck yeah corporal I've been dreaming of this since I was a boy" It was a T-34 Russian tank sadly the manuel was in vodka language so I could read it.

The Marine looked looked around to make sure we weren't caught. "Do you know how to drive it?"

"Negative marine" I said simply finally starting it.

"Oh no" he whimpered

(End of flashback)

We made it back to the desert and were grinding the dunes evading arrows and beams. I looked to Lyra then back at the wheel then back at her horn.

"Use your magic shit to control the humvee I'll get them off our ass" I ordered.

"I-I...Okay!" Her magic took the wheel and held the peddle as I crawled back up to the .50.

"Just like the infantry" I said to myself. I squeezed the trigger and let the hellfire of bullets loose on our enemy. They had trouble dodged the power of freedom and were dropping like birds. "Eat my freedom seed mother fuckers!"

A weird noise came from behind me so I turned around and saw a giant ass rainbow descending onto us. If I didn't shit my pants before I did now and it was big.

"Lyra evasive manoeuvres GO!!" I screamed. The humvee started turning but the rainbow followed us and landed infront of the hood swnding the humvee flying into the sand know knocking me out.

I groaned as I opened my eyes. I was upside down in the humvee hooked to the seat, I pressed the button and dropped onto the roof. My ears rang amd my head hurt like a bitch, I felt blood trickle down the side of my head and drilped onto my gloves. I could hear voices outside and screams from Lyra.

"Lyra...Lyra!" I crawled to the window down and saw the guards taking her away. I opened the door and aimed my rifle at ths guards and opened fire. "Come on you sons of bitches I'm right here!"

I took down seven of them before getting dragged out and they started to kick me down. I grabbed one of them and snapped his leg then stabbed another in the chest getting up. I stumbled but caught myself on the upside down humvee and fired on the others trying to save Lyra. I was shot in the face with a blue beam sending me into darkness.

Location: unknown
Time:unknown

I woke up a dark room with a dim light shining down on me. I tried to move my arms but they were bound to the chair, I tried to move my legs but they were also bound to the chair.

"Not again..." I moaned.

"Its about time you woke up freak" A voice said from the darkness.

"I planned on another hour but decided to put that ine in later" I chuckled. A hoof punched me in the face, I spat out blood and smiled. "You fist Your wife like that? No wonder shes probably fucking a Jody"

He lunched me in the face again. "Don't you talk about my wife you peice of trash"

"Sorry I meant your husband"

A door opened in front of me and Celestia walked through it and shut the door. I could see her eyes glow from the darkness. Then I remembered Lyra being taken.

"Where's Lyra?"

"She's being accounted for interfering with government business" She answered.

I felt anger rise in me at that. "Fuck you she was helping me not get experimented on by you sick fucks!"

Celestia tsked. "Well thats unfortunate for her cause now she will spend her days in a cell"

"I will burn your whole fucking country to the ground if you even lay a hand or hoof on her" I was behind angry I was fucking pissed and when you piss if one Marine that marine gains the strength of Chesty puller himself.

"How about I make you a deal. You help us Lyra will be safely sent back to her home" She was lying and I knew it.

"How about you go suck off your guards then come back once you've had enough bitch" I smirked.

Celestia sighed befkre calming closer to me. "I wish it would not have come to this"

Celestia lit her horn and my head started to burn and I felt like someone was spilling my head open. I held in my pained grunts trying to not show weakness to their pathetic tactics. The pain worsened and felt my muscles start to ache and burn, whatever she was doing I wouldn't let it work. Images of my dead brothers hit me in the face like a train and each of them hurt my head so badly I could feel my eyes start to water. A sharp pain exploded in the back of my skull causing me to gasp in pain.

The guard stepped in looking uneasy. "Ma'am I don't think-"

"It will work sergeant" Celestia snapped.

The pain went on for what felt like forever before eventually seizing. Sweat flew down my face as I breathed heavily, Celestias hoof reached out and lifted my head up to eye level.

"You will help us" She said in a trance like voice.

"Go..fuck...yourself" I heaved.

"H-How are you not u derbies the spell?!" She shrieked.

"You...can't break...what the devil fears" I used all the strength ths Corp could bless me with and broke the arm and legs of the chair off.

Before she could react I grabbed her throat and backhanded the guard into the wall. I srapled my hand around her horn then slammed her head into the wall until she started bleeding all over it. I threw her to the ground then stomled on her neck hearing a satisfying crack then she stopped moving. The guards ran at me with his knife but tripped and dropped it, I picked it up and proceeded to fight with him to stab him in the neck. His hoofs couldn't hold the knife back and the blade slowly cut into the jugular and he layed in a pool of blood.

I stood up and cut the restraints from my legs and cut off the arm restraints. I limped to the door and busted it down ending up in a hallway that looked like a castles court. The sounds of pained screams came from the left side of the hallway.

"Lyra..." I huffed, I took off down the hall kicking open the doors. Right there in the middle of the next room was Lyra strapped to an electric chair crying her dyes out. "Lyra it's me don't worry I'm ginna get you out of here I promise" I say as I started cugting the restraints.

"Allan I want to go home" She sobbed.

"I know I know it's gonna be okay. I'll make these mother fucker pay" I cut her loose and had to fire man carry her out of here.

I limped out of the room and back into the hallway to the other side. I still had the knife in my hand so until I find my guns this is all I got. I lushed open another door and inside waited Luna, Celestia, Twinkie and her friends, I was shocked to see Celestia as I remember very clearly curb stomping her neck and killing her.

"Well that was rather quick" commented Luna.

"Yes and he even resisted the mind spell which shouldn't be possible" Celestia said in surprise.

I had no where else to go and they were blocking my exit. They were planing something and I had to act fast. I saw a glass window to the left corner of my eye with a picture if Twinkie on it.

I closed my eyes and prayed. "Lord please don't let it be a long fall" I then made a full sprint towards the window and crashed through it landing on some grass.

I picked Lura back up and sprinted past bushes and garden antiques. A guard stepped into view but got his neck slit before he even knew what happend. Everything around me went silent and all I could hear was my heart beating like a drum on the 4th of July.

**

"I don't want to go sir" Private Richards whimpered. He had shrapnel wounds all over his body with 3 bullet wounds in his chest.

"It's gonna be okay Marine don't worry the chopper is almost here" I assured him. It wasn't gonna be here for another 10 mikes and I knew he wasn't gonna make it.

"I can't see sir..." Tears dripped down his face as he died in my arms.

**

My boots beat against the earth as I ran into the streets of this place and went for the front gate. Ponies looked in horror as they witnessed a blood covered marine carrying a pony whilst being chased by ponies. I could see the road ahead but an arrow made me fall over and drop Lyra in front of me, I reached back and oulled out the arrow and tossed it away. I got to my knees when guards swarmed me and had me surrounded.

"Put your bucking hands up creature!" One of them ordered.

Time slowed down as I focused on where each of them were. They moved in on me and I gripled the knife tighter before slashing the pony in front of me in the legs and punching the unicorn to my left. Someone kicked the back of my knee before a hoof connected with my head, my vision was hazy and I was swinging wildly barely able to hit anything. I grabbed a guard by his throat then ripped it out causing blood to spew every where before something hit me in the head this time knocking me out.

Me and Lt were in the COC talking with 6 about wether or not to trust the village elder who says he knows about an IED maker.

"6 don't you think this seems a bit strange that locals around here dispite hating our guts are now feeding us info?" Lt asked into the radio.

"1 I will not tolerate any disobedience now you will help this villager and his family and we will go get this IED make am I clear over?" We looked at each other both thinking about how we'd kill Fox-6.

LT sighed. "Yeah....1 out" He put down the radio and we walked over to ECP where the elder was.

The turp was talking with the guy probably talking about Muhammad and how their all gonna kill us or what not.

"Alright so we'll help you but we need to know where this IED maker is" Lt explained to the elder.

He told us in the next village to the east there was a shed that lead to a bunker full of IEDs and child slaves that make them. Me and Lt wanted to toss a fragrance in there just to get it over with because fuck them kids I got guys to protect. After he explained everything we let him go and waited till tomorrow to go see about this IED maker.

We walked to our racks and I leaned over to Lt. "If he's lying I'm killing his family"

He chuckled. "Not if I do it first" we fist bumped and called it a night.

The sound of beeping and and some air compressor machine was all I heard as I woke up. A mask was attached to my face to help me breath and IVs stuck in my arm, I looked up at the bag that read 'Anesthesia'. They were trying to keep me weak and it was working, I looked at my hands that were bounded tightly to the bed they were sliglty red from the dried blood they tried to clean off. I tried to loosen the binds but my muscles were too weak from the IV in my arm. They at least had the courtesy to let me keep my pants and boots.

Shortly after the door to the room swung open and I was shocked to see Lt bust in. I felt a wave of relief washed over me seeing his ugly face again.

"Allan you looked like hammered shit!" He laughed.

I heaved a laugh at that. "I feel like hammered shit brother" He cut off the binds and helped me up.

"We'll make them pay for what they did to you man I can promise you that" He said getting serious.

He handed me his M9 and I hanged on to him with one arm as we made our way out of the room. My body was like a fucking stroganoff MRE, I felt even worse when blood rushed to my legs.

I leaned agasint the wall to catch my breath "We need to find Lyra"

"Who's that?"

"She's a friend of mine I trust her" I looked up at him for hope.

He thought forba moment then sighed. "Alright we'll find her but first we gotta get to the RVP first"

I perked up. "Are the others here?"

He shook his head. "No just me now let's go" I leaned back on him and we made our way down stairs.

Guards spotted us and started heading our way. I popped off a few shots before we picked up the pace and ran past doctors and patients. I landed a shot in a guards eye casuing him to scream in pain and fall over, we jumped over him and continued our escape. The hospital was in full panic mode as bullets and arrows flew by everyone, Lt opened fire on the guards at our front while I watched our 6.

Once we cleared the hallway Lt pulled me up and we went to the back exits away from the public streets. It was raining outside hard and the noise of the rain covered out footsteps as we snuck past guards running to the hospital.

"Wait..." I stopped in my tracks. "They still have my shit man"

"We'll get It later we need to keep moving Allan" Lt picked me bavk up and we made it to a cliffside with a rope attached.

I was the first to go down and it wasn't easy with an injured leg and a throbbing headache. I was about 30 feet before my hands slipped from the rope and I tumbled down the mountain and knocked myself out.

Location:Fallujah
Time:1900

The sounds of artillery rounds hitting the enemy was like music to my ears. My squad was tasked with destroying the insurgent tanks pinning our guys due East. We drove down the street and it was deathly qquiet and that's never good.

"All vics hold up we have spotted a potential IED strapled to a body" The Marine ahead of us informed.

"Copy that sending the EOD"

Our EOD guy hopped out of the truck and made his way to the body. We watched the buildings to make sure no one was around, the whole city was to evacuate and those who stayed are now considered hostiles even the women and children.

"Sergeant there's a blue and white wire running from the body to the house on my left I need eyes on that house over" The EOD said over comms.

I looked over and spotted the two story house with the Iranian flag. "Spear 2-1 this is Spear 1 send a fire team to the building with the Iranian flag"

I watched as their fire team busted into the house and gunfire rang out from the house. I was about to send back up before screams came from the fire team.

"THE WHOLE HOUSE IS RI-"

Just before he could finish the house and the ones next to it blew up along with the IED sending the EOD backwards. I moved from the humvee and rushed to the downed marine and pulled him back to the others. Our medic and I ripped off the anti blast armor and it didn't seem to do the marine any good. The explosion went off right in his face making him look like shredded meat and it killed him instantly.

"COC this Spear 1 we need a cassevac and a search and rescue team to sector 6-2, three houses armed with IEDs have a squad of marines under it over"

"Roger Spear 1 we'll send them out and they should be there ETA 10 mikes COC out"

I looked to the other squads. "Alright, 2nd and 3rd squad stay here and to get our boys out of that rubble I'll take 4th and 1st squad to destroy those tanks oorah?"

"Oprah sir"

"Alright then let's move marines!"

I woke up with a jolt and sad up quickly and looked around. There was a small fire in front if me and Lyra sitting by it.

"Lyra?"

She looked at me and smiled. "It's about time you woke up I thought I'd have to drag you all the way back to the old castle"

"Where's Lt?"

She tilted her head. "I don't know who your talking about"

"He's the ine who helped me escape the hospital, we had to shoot our way out if the place" I tried to explain.

"Um...that was you and me after I woke up I was being dragged away but didn't lock my horn so I teleported to a random location and ended up in the armory where your stuff was," She pointed to the pile of gear near the tree. "I grabbed it sll and hoofed it to the hospital after hearing you were there and let me say sneaking in with all that heavy gear was not easy"

I shook my head. "No...no I know Lt was there he busted open the door and pulled my ass out I didn't see you"

"Allan that was your head messing with you I promise, there was no pony else but me" She said sitting next to me.

I couldn't have imagined that shit it felt so real. I decided to leave it for now and walked over to my stuff and started putting it back on.

"You think they'll find us again?"

I strapped on my helmet and nodded. "It's a probability so I gotta teach you how to shoot;" I slipped my pack and looked at her. "Your country has made themselves an enemy of the United States, you shohld be so lucky only one marine is here"

"W-Why's that?" She stuttered.

"Cause if the Corps ever found out about what they tried to do to one of their marines your country will be burned to the ground and the princesses heads would be used as war trophies" I answered grimly.

She looked horrfied at the idea of killing and fighting her friends but she would have to learn if she didn't want to get captured by the enemy again. I strapped my M4 and the M2 to my pack and held the HK then we rucked off towards the castle. I had to plan out each defensive position for an impending attack that would happen soon. There was no way for me to get home without Equestria being on my ass every where I go.

I then remembered the humvee. "Did you happen to see the humvee when you got my stuff?" I asked.

She shook her head. "That's the thing I heard some guards say it just dissapeard into thin air before they could search it"

"Huh....that's wierd" I but the inside of my cheek wondering where it could have gone. "Hopefully we find it again my leg is starting to hurt again"

Location: Castle of the two sisters
Time:2000

I guided us through the dark forest thanks to my nods and we made it to the castle. I checked the area for any sign of life but luckily we were the only ones here for now. The bricks and destroyed castle parts could be used as barriers for our defences and the throne room would be our second phase in case we need to fall back. The last phase would be down in the dungeons where I can use the desteoyed cells as advantage points.

"Allan I found the humvee!" Lyra shouted from inside.

I ran inside and spotted the beautiful thing into the middlenof the room. I went up and hugged it and gave it a kiss on the hood.

"Oh my poor child they didn't hurt you did they?" I caressed the hood in a loving manner.

Lyra went around back and looked through the trunk "I think there's something in the back of it" She said tapping on the glass.

I went around to the back and opened the trunk to see a big black container labelled in big red letters 'Only as a last resort!'. I opened it and stared at the magnificent beast before shutting it and pulling it out of the humvee. I had Lyra help me carry it down to the dungeons and laid it in the warden room.

"What is this?" She pointed at the container.

"This is our last line of defense and our only hope in killing the princesses" I said with a smile

She waved her hoof around awkwardly. "But why not just try to talk things-" I cut her off.

"We've tried that and look what happend to us!" I shouted at her. "I didn't want you to get any more involved than you already were and now we're both being hunted by them" I didn't mean to be harsh but it's true.

"So...we can't find another solution?" She asked with hint of sadness.

I groaned and shook my head. "The only other solution is to surrender to them and be used for their sick games so unless you want to be out in that chair again I suggest you learn to shoot"

"I don't think I could...kill another pony" she protested.

"Look Lyra I known it's hard and if you can't fight then I'll protect you till my last breath!" I pointed to the double doors. I was willing to give my life for her simce she risked hers for me.

I spent the next few hours moving shelves and tables around to make a fortified defense position on the outside. I made sure the doors were wide open so I could pull back if phase 2 was needed. I made the thrones into cover by the dungeons doorway and set more traps all along the throne room. This place was rigged to basically fall apart in a single boom and thats my plan, if I'm gonna die here I'm taking as many if these sons of bitches with me as possible. I walked over to Lyra and squated next to her.

"Lyra wake up" I gently shook her. She slowly woke up and looked at me.

"W-What's up?"

I helped her up and grabbed the M4 and M50. "I set up a range out back so let's go"

"We need to apprehend this creature before the Equestrians can" Captain Ibara said banging her claws on the table.

"We have a report saying the creature escaped capture twice and the second time he was said to be delusional yet managed to fight off anything in its way" a Griffin informed.

Captain Ibara walked over to the old relics from old wars. "If Celestia went back to her roots she has most likely tried to use magic to control his mind but failed once again" She said remembering what happend to other prisoners during the great war, they were used as mindless animals forcing them to kill each other.

Sergeant Iron Claw tilted his head looking st the large map. "We've heard that during his first escape he thought the hologram spell was the real Celestia and...did things not even I would do"

Captain Ibara scratched her chin looking at the map of Equis."All this chaos caused by one little creature," she shook her head. "If those elements of harmony couldn't stop it then..." Captain Ibara thought of the chaos this creature could bring towards Equestria if it were on their side.

"Well ma'am I think it's because the elements reconized the creature as a hood being, it never openly attacked anyone without a cause" Sergeant Iron Claw pointed out to her.

"That is...interesting" Captain Ibara said walking towards the balcony. She would have to speak with this creature herself if she wants it on their side in this coming war.

"Sergeant Iron Claw get my personal squad ready for take off I am going to speak with this creature myself to....make a deal" She ordered.

Iron Claw saluted and left the room. Captain Ibara looked over the city of Griffin Stone wondering if she could bring glory back to her Griffins and be rid of the tyrant that ruled the Sun. The creature she wanted had a similar warrior like culture as them and had a hatered for the ponies making him a valuable asset but it would be a shame to have to kill it.

A few minutes passed and her security team was ready. She went to the barracks to inform them of the plan.

"Alright the target we want is to be taken alive if possible, it has taken out a full squad of some of our best in the dessert like it was nothing also taking down Equestrian forces making him a highly wanted indsvidual," She looked at them all who looked rather nervous about the mission. "His weapons are able to shoot fire and it will kill you in am instant so we must be pragmatic about this"

One of the Griffins raised his claw. "And if he puts up a fight?"

Captain Ibara sighed amd turned to exit. "Then may the God's have mercy on us all"

"Nice Fucking shot Lyra I told you with a few days of practice you'd get better!"

"I can't believe I actually hit the center!" She exclaimed.

I let her shoot the M4 and M50, so far shes been making great progress. We had to work out the kinks like her using her magic and stuff to shoot since she didn't have fingers but it's not a problem for her anymore. I taught her how to take apart the weapons and to put them together again and made sure she knew the basic fire arm safety along with knowing how to clean each component of the rifle.

"Back in basic if we even had a a untightend screw our whole platoon was fucked" I remembered the one time a recruit forgot to tighten his barrel and it fell off during target practice. "There was this-"

One if the traps went off up front. I grabbed the M4 and ran around the side, the smoke from the bladt cleared and parts of a dead Griffin laid at the front of the bridge. A few more Griffins popped up and I aimed at them.

"I thought we came here to talk peace withcthe thing not get blown up!" One of them shouted.

"The creature probably set these up for those Equestrians" The female one said. She stepped forward carefully and and looked towards the castle. "Hello is anyone there!? We just want to talk!"

"Allan what should we do?" Lyra asked from the walkie. I thought for a moment before thinking they could actually want to talk.

"Watch my back I'll go see what they want" I ordered. I stood up and slowly walked to her With my rifle still trained on her.

The Griffin saw me and looked nervous as I got closer. The other Griffins stood behind her waiting to see what would happen.

"What do you want?"

The female Griffin stepped up after getting herself together. "I am Captain Ibara of the Griffin Stone Imperial Guard, I got word that a creature was causing quite the chaos in Equestria and just so happens to hate the princess as much as we do" She pointed to me.

"If you came here to drag me into your war you can go fuck off I had a run in with you Griffins a while back and they seemed eager to kill me" I said with annoyance

"Yes I heard of them, they were supposed to take you alive in a peaceful manner but it would seem killing you was better to them" She looked down in shame at the actions of her soldiers.

I slightly raised my rifle at her and furrowed my brows. "Yeah and killing you seems to be better for me"

The Griffin stepped back and her guards moved next to her. "Look I know what that Celestia did to you in her interrogation room. I've seen her turn my own soldiers against us with that spell forcing us to cut them down"

I lowered my rifle at that. "I know what it to be forced to kill your friends..." I muttered remebering a time back in Afghanistan.

"PUT THE GUN DOWN KYLE!" I ordered. Kyle held the barrel of M9 to a Privates head who was scared shitless. Kevin was going through some shit and we we're gonna send him state side to get checked out but I dont think that'll be happening.

"I WON'T LET Y'ALL KILL ME!!" He screamed. I could see his eyes and tears flooded down his face, he was captured and tortured by ISIS cells and we found him barely alive and planned on getting him home.

"Kevin no ones gonna hurt you but I need you to put the gun down before you hurt someone" I nodded to the marine who was being held hostage. "Kevin I want to get you home but please don't let it be in a bag man" My voice cracked.

He backed up with the marine, we had him cornered so this was going to end one way our another. I didn't want to put down my friend and I sure as hell didn't want to let a fellow marine die like this.

"They made me do it I didn't want to I swear" He raised the pistol at me and I pulled the trigger and the bullet went straight through his skull.

The marine he held hostage fell to his knees and crawled away. I dropped my rifle and and walked over to the body of my friend whom I wanted to save but failed to do so. I cried that night holding him in my arms as the medics came to get the body.

"I'm sorry..."

(End of Flash back)

"So yeah I killed my friend because he was turned agasint us, now if you don't kind leaving I have things to attend too" I said walking away.

"W-We can offer protection for you from the princess!" The Griffin blurted out. I stopped and looked back at her.

"What's the catch?"

She rustled her feathers before speaking. "Well your obviously a good strategist since you've evaded the ponies for so long, maybe you could help direct our troops if it comes to blows with us and Equestria"

"You want me to guide your soldiers if you go to war here?" I tilted my head. "I can't give you my weapons if that's what else you want"

She shook her head. "No No we don't want your weapons we just need a good leader and if it comes to it an assassin"

I chuckled at the assassin part. "Lady I'm a Raider not some stupid SEAL team 6, And even though I would enjoy killing everything here I can't" I loved the SEALs but we all know Raiders is where it's at.

"If we were able to notify your leaders and request help would you then do it?" She proposed.

I sighed in annoyance and deadpaned at her. "I mean if you can some how contact the United States of America then yeah I'll be happy to go run and gun down ponies but you won't be able to contact them since I'm on another fucking planet" I waved my hand around the area stating my point.

Her eyes widened and her jaw dropped. "Y-your and alien? I thought those were myths!"

"Well not anymore now if you will excuse me I have something I need to do before making a decision" I 180'd and walked back to the doors making sure not to step on my own traps.

Lyra jumped down from her post and trotted up to me. "What did they want?"

"They offered protection for my teachings and leading their army agasint Equestria"

"WHAT!? Your not going to help them are you?"

"Fuck no not unless my country calls for it I'm out of this bitch, this ain't my war but that doesn't mean I won't hesitate to kill anyone here"

"So..."

"So I'm not sure what I'll do, I can't go to your princess unless I want to-" I was interrupted by the sounds of fighting and screams outside.

I grabbed my HK and Lyra took the M4 and we ran outside. The Griffins were attacked by Equestrian guards andbthsy brought an entire battalion. I crawled into the humvee and cocked the .50 opening fire on the ponies, the Pegasus were a huge problem as they were dive bombing us with some kind of gas, the Griffins however used some kind of mask to cover their faces and kept fighting. I was hacking up my guts and crawled back inside, I opened the little truck in the back and pulled out two gas masks for me and Lyra.

"Lyra p...put this on!" I yelled dying from coughing. She struggled to put it on so I helped her then put mine on and got back on the .50.

A hoof grabbed me, I looked up and it was a Pegasus trying to yank me out. I grabbed his head and slammed it agasint the edge of my gunner shirld covering it in blood, I pushed him off and continued firing through the thick gas fog. It was hard to see so I decided It was time for phase two, Lyra out the humvee in gear and pulled us back to the castle.

"Yo Fall back to the castle!" I shouted to the Griffins. They flew to us to avoid the traps letting the ponies trigger them. Once we were inside we shut the door and blocked it off with a shelf.

"Where do we go now?" One of the Griffins asked rather worried.

"If we can't hold them here we fall back to the dungeons and there's a broken wall we can escape from," I pulled out a C4 charge and primed it. "I'll cover the escape by bringing down the whole castle I set charges all throughout the place and once I detonate the charge this will be their grave"

The female Griffin stepped forward. "What can we do?"

"What's your name?"

"Captain Ibara of the 2nd Battalion Griffin Army"

"Alright Captain set you men on the left side, me and Lyra will cover the center and right side and with these hallways destroyed they can only come in the front or above" I ordered.

We were set in our positions waiting for them to break through. The sounds of banging filled my ears as the door slowly dwindled down. I reached into my pouch on my vest and pulled out my cross, I closed my eyes and bowed my head.

"Lord I know its been a while simce we've last spoke but I am here now to ask for your strength to defeat my enemy. I pray you allow us to see tomorrow, I pray you show the enemy mercy for I shall show none. Amen" After I finished the door bursted into pieces and they started swarming in. I opened fire on the middle section as arrows and light beams shot past me.

Lyra took out a group of unicorns then I tossed a frag at them causing blood and parts fly everywhere. Screams of pain could be heard over the gunfire and traps exploding, I shot a pony trying to crawl away with his intestines hanging out as a sign of no survivors. Ibara and her guys were holding their own for now so I wasn't worried...until a black ball flew towards them blowing up half of her guys. I focused fire on the left but they were using those magic shields that held of my bullets for a little while

"Lyra grab Ibara and help them get to the dungeons I'll cover you!" I called to her.

"Okay!" She ran towards Ibara and only one of her guards were still alive and they carried Ibara to the dungeon stairs.

I tossed two more frags before getting my stuff and blowing up the humvee knowing I'd find it later. Arrows wizzed by me one of them hitting my pack, I turned around and lifted the C4 charge and squeezed the button. The whole castle shook from explosions in every direction, the force of the blow sent me tumbling down the stairs.

I landed on my pack at the bottom and groaned in discomfort. Lyra stood over me then dragged me over to a wall, I pulled off my gas mask a chuckled for no reason.

"You okay?" Lyra asked.

I nodded numbly. "Never better," I looked over to Ibara and her guard who were fucked up. "Hey captain you broken?"

She smirked "Nope just resting for a second"

We then got back to our feet/hooves and started making our way towards the last cell where the box and exit was. I had to move the box that revealed the hole in the wall to the forest. I had the Griffin Guard go first then Ibara. Lura was next but then the sounds of yelling and hooves stomping came closing in fast.

"Shit they already dug down" I looked to the box and weighed out my options. I could leave it and risk the ponies getting it or hold down the fort while they escape. "Lyra help me get this on"

We moved to the box and opened it revealing the Juggernaut suit issued by the Marine Corps along with a M134 minigun. We pulled it out and I started putting it on as fast as humanly possible, I threw the whole body plate armor over the suit and Lyra slipped on the arm amd leg guards. Once we finished I put on the helmet and picked up the M134.

"I'll cover the escape now go" I said muffled by the suit.

She was about to protest but knew it wouldn't help. "I'll wait for you on the other side"

"Thank you...for everything" I said pushing the box back over the hole. I walked out of the cell and towards the voices with a smile on my face. I pressed the radio on my shoulder letting music play loudly for everyone to hear. They ponies stopped at the end of the hallway and stared in horror at the giant freedom machine that would Baptize them in bullets.

"Semper Fi mother fuckers!"

Sic Semper Tyrannis

Bullets and arrows flew all around the darkroom. Multiple ponies were dead at my feet and more were to come, I was firing on a shield they set up while pushing forward. I was close to breaking it and they knew that if it broke they'd be slaughtered.

"Come on you're making this easy!" I taunted. "I've killed goat fuckers who fight better than you!"

I stepped back and charged unto the magic wall shattering it and crushing the ponies under my boots. I brought the minigun down onto a ponies head crushing it then unleashed hell on the others. I couldn't stop myself from slaughtering them like animals it felt...amazing and I didn't want to stop. That was until a yellow light shot me and sent me into the wall.

I looked up and it was Celestia again, She used her magic to heal her barley dead guards and they were back in their hoofs. I was gonna call bullshit for her cheating but that didn't seem to matter.

"It would seem I have failed to get your help to protect the lives of my ponies. I guess the only thing to do now is to rid you of this world"

I laughed at that. "You can kill me lady but be warned once you do...you better be prepared for what comes after one marines death"

"And what is that?" She sneered.

"Hell" I grabbed the minigun to open fire but the ripped it from my hands and a spear made of light flew at me.

I wasn't fast enough to dodge it but it was too weak to even penetrate the first layer. I looked at it and she started in shock then I started laughing. The spear disappeared then I pulled out my 1911 and shot at her still shocked body, I was so close but she dodged it and picked me up with her magic then threw me against the wall repeatedly.

"Ow...fuck...you...bitch..." I said after hitting the wall several times. I couldn't feel much since I was protected my inches of thick armor but it was starting to get annoying so I pulled a banger out and chucked it at her head.

It bounced off her head then blinded her making her drop me. I rolled over and got up then ran at her making both of us go over the old railings. We fell about 20 feet landing in a foot of water, I grabbed Celestia by the back of her head and pushed her face into the water in an attempt to drown her. She teleported behind me and bashed a rock on my helmet, I pulled out my knife and stabbed her in the leg causing her to cry out in pain. She then went for a punch which actually surprised me but I just simply blocked her arm then dropkicked her back into the water.

I saw her horn about to light up so I grabbed it, lifted her head then snapped it. Celestia let out a blood-curdling scream as a blast emitted from her broken horn barely pushing me back. Her guards looked on in horror but still tried to fire bolts and arrows at me to no avail. I grabbed her by the throat and lifted her high up. She struggled to breathe with my hand tightening around her throat.

"You tried to fuck with my mind!" I slammed her back into the water for a few seconds then lifted her back up. "Tried to make me a monster!"

"Tried?" She croaked.

I put her head back under the water and waited for her to stop struggling. The bubbles became less and less then they stopped. The water ran red with blood pouring out of her wounds confirming she was finally dead. I stood up and looked at the dead princess and found my minigun on a pile of debris, I grabbed it and waded through the water towards another hole in the wall. Arrows continued to hit and bounce off me so I turned around and fired on the guards above causing them to fall back giving me time to escape.

I weaved through the hole and made it to the forest and pressed my radio.

"Lyra...do you copy?" I said heavily.

"Alan oh my maker are you okay?!" She asked sounding worried.

"I killed her Lyra, I killed Celestia," I said as an answer.

She got quiet for a moment before saying."Oh...."

"Where are you now?"

She hummed for a second looking around probably. "I'm with Captain Ibara east of the forest, we set up camp here just look for a cliff with big yellow flowers"

"Copy that Alan out" I had to stomp my way there in case I ran into any threats I had my armor to protect me.

The guards carried the white and gold-trimmed coffin slowly and carefully. It was a sad day for Equestria as they had lost their princess to a creature they thought would be the key to saving the country. Luna had a wave of deep anger and hatred for the human that murdered her sister and the elements felt a great sadness, especially Twilight who thought of Celestia as a second mother. The guards laid the coffin down on the rails to be lowered into the ground. Luna went up to the podium to give a remembrance speech for her fallen sister.

"2 days ago during the hunt for the human, my sister came into conflict with the human but couldn't reason with it. Many of our brave guards were killed protecting Tia but the human and his weapons proved to be the victor...." Tears fell down her cheeks but she continued. "We shall not let this monster go until punished, we will find him and bring him to justice then banish him to Tarturis for all of eternity. All Tia wanted was peace for her ponies even if it meant giving her life and now we face a bigger threat than the Griffins alone if we band together and show them that they cannot and will not destroy our friendship nor our magic" she approached her sister's coffin and placed a hoof on it. "I'm sorry sister"

The guards lowered the coffin into the ground then proceeded to bury their beloved princess. Many ponies wept at the sight and many were fuelled with anger at the one who killed her while others had fear of what this human was capable of if it could kill the sun goddess. The main six were the last to leave the gardens and Twilight approached the fresh dirt and laid down by it crying her eyes out. Her friends tried to comfort her as they knew how close she was to the princess but it was pointless.

Apple Jack tool off her hat in shame. "Ah can't believe I was just a few hoofs away from the killer"

"It's not your fault darling you couldn't have known" Rarity assured her putting a hoof on her back.

"Yeah plus next time we see him I'll make him pay for what he did!" Rainbow Dash says pounding her hoofs together.

Flutter Shy spoke up. "Maybe he was still angry that the princess tried to mind control him and..made... him see things" she got quieter as the others glared at her.

"Well w-we needed help with the Griffins and he wouldn't so what else were we supposed to do?" Rainbow Dash defended.

"He didn't get a choice to be brought here, he was taken from his home and we tried to use him as a weapon of war" Flutter Shy countered.

Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes being ignorant as usual. "Because that's what he is Flutter Shy, he's the princess said he'd be the perfect one to save Equestria!"

"He's also another sentient being Rainbow Dash," Flutter Shy said harshly before walking off. She's never gotten upset like that with her friends but she knew what was right and wrong and didn't blame Rainbow Dash for being upset.

Apple Jack approached the small circle of friends. "If he's gonna help the Griffins then that'll mean big trouble for us since he has those big weapons"

"Yes, but we have the elements of harmony on our side does that not count for something?" Rarity pointed to their necklaces.

"You saw what they did to him it only made him angrier instead of turning him to stone" Rainbow Dash pointed out.

Luna shortly appeared next to them in a flash. "I believe my sister has made a big mistake in bringing this human to Equis"

''How so princess?" Asked Twilight who was now done sobbing.

"We captured his vehicle but he rigged it and blew it up then found another one just like it." She rubbed her chin. "If my assumptions are correct there are more than just one of them here"

(A week later)

Location: Griffin Stone Palace
Time:0400

I sat in a chair cleaning my rifle and making sure I had all my shit with me. I talked with Captain Ibara and I was forced to help them since I killed Celestia, Lyra was upset about all this but knew if she went back she'd be put to either the chair or prison for life. I allowed the Griffins to study my M4 but that was it as I wasn't gonna let a potential enemy become too powerful now, I would probably get court marshaled for this but that would have to happen later. A few Griffins asked what it was like to kill a 'goddess' and I just shrugged it off as another kill for the reports.

Lyra came out of the palace and sat next to me, her hair was in a mess.

"What's gonna happen to us, Alan?"

I stopped for a minute and looked at her. "Lyra I'm gonna be real with you when I say the Equestria you once knew is now your enemy, they see you and me as the enemy now and we will be killing a lot of Equestrians in the future"

She sat silently for a minute before something came to her realization. "What about Bon Bon she probably thinks I'm a criminal or maybe they've taken her!" Lyra started hyperventilating and I patted her back and scratched her.

"It's alright we'll find her but for now we need to see what we can do here first before we start running and gunning," I say not wanting to risk it for now. A group of Griffins came up to us, the one leading them spoke first.

"Sir Alan, captain Ibara has requested your audience, please follow us," He said. I put my gun back together and stood up to follow them into the palace, the Griffins here so far have treated us well, which I'm quite thankful for.

We walked down the halls where pictures of battles hanged ranging from a battle in the snow to even in a volcano. There was a picture of a Griffin stabbing a pony in a similar pose a Marine from Belleau woods was in, I just deadpanned at the copy-pasted picture but didn't bother saying shit about it.

We entered through some doors and we were now in a small circular room, Captain Ibara stood by a rounded table with a map.

"Ah Gunnery Sergeant Alan, good to see you still well" Ibara smiled.

I nodded and stretched my arms. "Yeah it's been a wild week, so what did you want to talk m to me about?"

Ibara got quiet for a moment then sighed heavily before speaking. "I want to employ your help in training a special group of Griffins, if you would allow us to make a replica of your weapon just for them and no one else we may have a better chance in wining this war"

Now It was my turn to be silent for almost 5 minutes. It would be hard but I can't turn back now. "If I do help you and we win I want those replicas destroyed and the blueprints burned"

Her eyes brightend and she squealed in excitement. "I'll let you watch as well. Now on to more pressing matters, ever since the death if Celestia the Equestrians have began moving forces to our borders most likely for a full scale invasion" She pointed on the map.

Equestria has a hook around the ocean that made it a one way trip for foot mobiles but if they had ships then we are gonna be fighting on two fronts and with the Griffins being at 1 million strong I say we have a chance.

"When I was with the raiders we usually used drones to find our targets but seeing as the Equestrian generals are boasting fags they won't be hard to see" I commented and pointed at a photo of one of the generals who looked like shinning armor but with a green mane.

"How long do you think it will take for you to train your team?" Ibara Asked.

I scratched my chin. "If their gonna be raiders its gonna be 8 painful months but before that its the 13 weeks of hell"

She groaned at that statement banging her head on the table. "I don't know if we have 8 months to wait"

"Then I'll have them in 3, just build us a base camp in my vision and well get started from there" I said walking back out after we shook hands and claw.

I headed to the little station house me and Lyra stayed in, we became closer friends even though I made her princess my bitch but she didn't seem to mind anymore. I sat on the couch and thought about how I would train a fresh batch of marines who were Griffins, back in leadership training in MARSOC we were taught how to lead and instill courage and discipline in our marines. But we didn't do all the marching singing shit so I'd have to try to remember from basic which shouldn't be hard.

I laid back on the couch but just then my radio went off.

"This Is Corporal Avila of the United States Marine Corps, I have landed in unknown territory and I am currently holding off a force of weapon wielding horses does anyone copy over!?" She yelled over gunfire and bolts.

I needed to lnow if she was real first though. "This is Gunnery Sergeant Alan Church I hear now what is your MOS?"

"Uh...1812 sir!" She replied confused.

I knew that MOS as that was my first option when I enlisted. "A Tank crewman ....Alright now what's your position do you see any landmarks?"

"I see a...SHIT GET DOWN!!" She begand firing at her attackers. "There's a big mountain just 2 clicks North of us and a giant city just beyond a field passing!"

I looked outside and those mountains she talked about weren't close but I could get there. "Copy I'm on my way and if you see bird like creatures those are allies, I'll explain when I get there over and out!"

I got back up and rushed out the door towards the palace to inform Ibara about the attack. I prayed I could finally see another human again, I now wondered how many marines were out there and if any got captured by the Equestrians.

"May God help us all"
