Where We came From Isn't All "Sunshine"...

YEAR: January 17, 1049, THREE YEARS AFTER THE DECLARATION OF WAR AGAINST GROGAR

LOCATION: CANTERLOT BATTLEFRONT, 5,000 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND

UNIT: 4TH UNITED KINGDOMS FIGHTER PLATOON, "MAGE" SQUADRON

LEADER(S): Captain Gallus "Ice-Colt" Grant, Vice-Captain Silverstream "Talon" Alexandra

AIRCRAFTS IN USE: LOCKGRIFF F-22 RAPTOR

"Cap! I don't know how much we could how this position!"

"SHIT! THEY GOT SAMS! I REPEAT! THEY GOT SAMS!"

"FUCK! WHIPLASH 1 DOWN! WHIPLASH 2 DOWN! UGH! I'M HIT! I'M----"

Captain Gallus "Ice-Colt" Grant highly doubt he's gonna make it back alive, His entire "Mage Squadron", which contains a total of twenty-five pilots, were getting pinned down hard. Now, after another shower of SAMs, the only ones left were him, Vice-Captain Silverstream "Talon" Alexandra, and Jigsaw 1, who's currently, too, getting pinned by heavy anti-aircraft fire.

Mage Squadron's original mission is to escort the 15th tactical bomber platoon until they reach their targets, but unfortunately, they're overwhelmed by the numerous enemy fighters. The Tactical bombers are goners, and now the enemies had drove them into an opening trap full of anti-air weapons.The Mage Squadron were not expecting this, they're quickly outnumbered and eliminated, except for Gallus Grant and Silversteam Alexandra, who were both the most elite pilots of the United Kingdom Air Force. Both griffs known each other for a long time before enlisting the military, actually, they're couples. After the war started, both pilots were sent to the "Mage" Squadron as the heads of the squad.

But now their situation is NOT good.

Two enemy aircrafts are right behind Gallus's tail, he always hated dogfights.Dodging another heat-seeking missile from the enemy jet, he quickly pulled up, increasing the Raptor's speed to max. The enemy Flankers were overthrown by the speed, using this chance, Gallus maneuvered pass them, locking their 6 o'clock dead. He then turned on the Active Radar Tracking Air-to-Air missile system, gaining a lock.

The sound of "Flatline" is the signal, Gallus ignited the missile as the AMRAM missile flew out of F-22's weapon bay and lunged at its target like a bullet. It then quickly reached mach 4, the Flanker was hit and lit up into a fire ball while crashing towards the ground.

This isn't his first Splash on enemy now, yet he couldn't help but felt his blood boiled. Die motherfuckers! Die you bastards!]

The other Flanker noticed his teammate's death and immediately turned its course, trying to dodge the Raptor, sadly, their generation comparison limited the Flanker's chances of escaping.

Now gaining another radar lock on the Flanker, Gallus fired another missile at the Flanker, but the empty click of the trigger only angered him more. After a long time of combat, he used up all of his missiles, now only two air to air two weapons he could use is his M61A2 Vulcan 20 millimeters multi-barrel gun... And himself. Though ramming into his enemy would be the last thing on Gallus's list.

Quickly switching to the gun, Gallus eyed the escaping flanker, searching for the rounds' LZ, then he pulled the trigger and let the Vulcan roar. The 2 centimeters AP-incendiary Tracer rounds formed a whip of fire as it sliced the Flanker, igniting its fuel tank and blew it up mid-air. Another successful Splash!

"Talon, this is Ice-Colt, how are your status?" Gallus spoke through the radio, after the blur of the radio died down, a female voice came out.

"Not good! Just splashed the Flankers, but the SAMs are getting a lock on me!"

"Hang on Talon, support is on the way." Gallus then flew towards Talon's (Silverstream's callsign) location. His jet carried two 1,000 Pounds GBU-32 JDAMs, that should take care of at least four SAM sites.

Meanwhile, Silverstream 'Talon' Alexandra is in big trouble. She's been multiple-locked by more than 10 SAMs underneath, if her coltfriend (Everycreature/bronies knows this by now... Why am I saying this again?) is already shot down, then she'd not hesitate to join him. Fortunately, help arrived just in time.

A familiar F-22 Raptor with a blue thunderbolt and three golden feathers icons on its tails soared through the air, dropping two JDAMs at the SAM sites, blowing them up instantly.

Then his lovable/sometimes annoying vice came, "Am I late again Mi Amore?"

"Almost too late Gally," Silverstream said das their jets passed through, "your timing went well though."

Suddenly, both of their cockpits rang in alarm, and both pilots were devastated; they're been locked on by more than twenty SAMs, in this case, escaping would be nearly impossible.

"Well, Silver, guess this is it." Gallus sighed, he'd many expectation for their future, their kids, their family... Now all seems lost, perished in the fog of war and death.

"I'm satisfied, long as I'm with you." Silverstream said, the two released their grips on their control sticks, ignoring the rapid alarms, waiting for death to come revive them.

A few seconds later, the missiles reached them. Smiles on their faces, fire engulfed their aircrafts...

-------(~*~)-------/b]

YEAR: June 21, 1049
LOCATION: Outside of School of Friendship, FiM Equestria

"Finally! Those school works are driving me crazy." Gallus (Student) yawned as he stretched himself. Summer Break is today and he could finally go on a two moth break with his six friends and his crush Silverstream (Student).

"You sound like you hated almost every school assignment," Ocellus said, "not all of them were that bad."

"Eh, to you just piece of cake. No offense but you're a bit of bookworm like Headmare Twilight." Smolder stated, Ocellus rolled her eyes.

"Maybe so, but you'll find reading useful someday."

"Friends let's not argue," Yona the yak said, "friends spend time with each other happily." (I'm gonna try my best to sound like Yona, though I'm not good at using her phrases.)

Suddenly, they heard some sort of rumbling coming from the skies above.

"Is it Professor Dash and her nasty pranks again?" Smolder asked, "It don't sound like thunder to me."

"No, Professor Dash is at the Wonderbolts, and the weather team is on break, so there's no way that rumble is a storm cloud." Ocellus said.

As the students talked, the rumbling got louder and closer, until...

BOOM! A loud, ear-piercing sonic boom was heard, the clouds tore open by a massive amount of force, something flew out of it, too big to be a Pegasus, plus they're on break today. The students barely caught its body, it looked like it was made of metal, a air of massive wings, two weird tails, and a golden "head". It flew by them so fast, only its shadow was caught. The two metal birds flew towards the sky, it made those ear-piercing noises again as its tails suddenly lit up in flames... No, more like gases!

"A-Are t-these o-one of P-Professor D-Dash's P-Pranks?" Smolder gulped, these strange metal birds really struck fear into her heart. The others were dumbstruck while Ocellus's jaw literally hit the ground.

"N-Nope, no way in T-Tartarus c-could a l-living thing f-fly as fast as Professor Dash." Ocellus stammered.

While the students were dumbstruck, the two metal birds fly back, much slower this time, and it's really close to the ground. The metal birds's side opened and extended their "talons", but they looked like they're made of a metal stick and a rubber wheel. The two metal birds touched down with each other by its sides, huge parachutes were extended from their tails. Two metal birds slowly came to a stop at the field outside the School of Friendship.

The students were both curious and afraid, they decided to spy the mysterious metal bird. As they got closer, they found out that this isn't a living thing at all, more of a machine. Suddenly, those "golden" goggles opened by themselves, two figures climbed out the machines. The students' eyes widened.

"There's creatures IN that machine?" Gallus asked.

"Their technologies seems to be superior than ours." Ocellus whispered.

Then, the most unexpected thing happened.

"Huh? Our old school?" one of them asked, clearly out of disbelief, "But I thought it was destroyed!"

Nocreature moved nor talked for a brief moment, until Gallus whispered, "Uh... Is it just me... Or that thing talked like me?"

"I have no idea, but at least we're still alive." The second creature said, this time, it's a female... And it sounded EXACTLY like a certain Pink hippogriff. The students decided to move, but Yona accidentally step on a broken branch, causing it to crack.

The two creatures turned over, in their talons were a small strange box, black and dangerous. Ocellus immediately sensed that danger from that strange weapon and shouted everyone to halt.

"Sorry! We didn't mean to---" Ocellus was about to apologize but was cut off by that male creature.

"O-Ocellus?"

------(~*~)------

"O-Ocellus?" Gallus Grant was dumbstruck, "I-is t-that really y-you?"

No, it cannot be possible! Gallus winced as painful past memories stormed up his mind, t-they are dead... Killed in the school by the air raid... NO!!!!

Gallus Grant suddenly screeched in anger as he pressed his talons on his forehead, while Silverstream Alexandra rushed to help her coltfriend.

"Is it the PTSD again?" she asked, concerned as she helped him up.

"Damn fucking PTSD..." Gallus Grant muttered. Then six loud gasps were heard, causing the two pilots to look up, "Uh... Silver... The locals..."

The two sides stared at each other for a brief moment, until Smolder decided to spoke up.

"So... Care to explain?"

(10 Minutes Later)

"So you're saying... That you both came from an alternative version of Equestria... Shot down by things called SAMs, in your... Jets?" Smolder concluded, still getting used to the new terms.

"Apparently so." Gallus Grant said.

"You two are the alternate version of me and Silver... You... Both fly that thing?" Gallus tiled his head at the two Raptors, then he returned an amused smile, "Cool."

""You can say that," Silverstream Alexandra said, but frowned, "but 'cool' isn't the right word to use."

"Pardon?" Gallus cocked his head.

"You see, where we came from, ain't all 'Shiny and Sunshine'," Gallus Grant explained, using sarcasm at the last two words, "the correct term to describe our job is... Fucking Dangerous as Fuck." He paused when he saw the students staring at them, "What?"

"Nothing, it just that we don't really use curse words that much here..." Ocellus said.

"Well I couldn't help but have to say those terms once I dipped myself in military for at least a year or so," Gallus Grant shrugged, "especially if we're at war with Grogar."

"Wait! You're at WHAT now?!" Sandbar asked in disbelief.

"A war, ya know, death, violence, blood, so on?" Gallus Grant sighed, "Our world has been at war with Grogar and his Shadow Army for more than a year now, but our forces kept losing the battles, eventually it came to Canterlot. We lost many of our friends in the war..." At tis point, Gallus Grant started to mumble at himself again.

"What's with him?" Smolder asked.

Silverstream Alexandra sighed, "PTSD."

"What?"

"Post traumatic stress disorder, my love caught that ever since..." Silver Alexandra took a shaky breath, "Ever since you guys died."

Silence.

"Uh... We're here." Silverstream (Student) stated.

"But back in our world, you guys are... killed during an air raid at the school, the school was destroyed. Gallus and I saw the entire thing, he blames himself for not fast enough to save you guys ever since. So... Yeah, this happens." Silver Alexandra explained. After some moments, Galluss Grant recovered from the PTSD.

"So... There's no way to get back?" he asked.

"Don't think so, Headmare Twilight said that teleportation between worlds is usually a one way trip." Ocellus said.

The two Outsiders glanced at each other, Gallus Grant then sighed in relief, "Thank Celestia."

"We lost almost everypony back home, including our professors," Silver Alexandra said, "so we're thinking if we could... Start new in this Equestria?"

The students' eyes lit up, "Are you kidding? Of course you can!" Silverstream chirped, "It's not like seeing creatures... I mean ourselves from another world happens everyday."

"Yeah! I'm sure the professor will welcome you both with open hooves." Sandbar charmed in.

Gallus Grant and Silverstream Alexandra looked at each other then smiled, "Alrighty, then new Equestria it is." Gallus Grant said, as their new future awaits ahead of them...

However, even freedom and peace has prices... Sooner or late, Gallus Grant and Silbverstream Alexandra will found themselves in need for war again, and fate will not show mercy on their new friends, new Equestria, and new lives. But for now, all they have to know is that they'll be in peace and happiness... For now.
