Several Days after we decided to stay in the ship for a while scavenging for parts and technology we managed to find a few things, such as a Warthog, An untouched armory, with all the weapons inside untouched, rocket launchers, battle rifles, assault rifles, shotguns, etc, etc, Basically we're loaded on weaponry now. We actually managed to seal a bunch of the holes in the ship and get some of the plumbing working. Turns out we aren't leaving, we're turning this ship into our command center. We managed to find an empty hangar that was stuck shut, we turned that into a workshop for weapons and stuff, and it turns out the encrypted shit on my Arm Tablet thing was a whole bunch of blueprints. Stuff from different games and movies and shit from my old life. I honestly cant believe half this shit exists here.

For example in the workshop we got the fabricator from subnautica set up, aswell as a modification station. We got 3d Printers from that one movie that i cant remember the name to, we got nano-tech from Iron Man, we got blueprints for spaceships like the tempest from mass effect Andromeda, and the eagle from elite dangerous, though we don't have the facilities to construct them here. We got solar panels made from parts of the wreckage outside in the dusty fields of the badlands generating all our power, and we got rechargeable power-cells hooked up to them for when it turns night or when a dust storm happens. We got the hangar door where we park the pelican fixed up, it opens and closes now. We managed to find an empty room, i don't know what was originally in there but Winters up there turning it into a sorta command room, basically where all our info is kept and where we can control everything in the ship, She's gonna build a router there so she can access it remotely whenever she needs to and she's gonna connect my tablet to it so that i can control the hangar doors from my person. She managed to get the communications array back online by sticking a tower up on top of the wreck, i don't know how she did it because she did so while i was asleep but its there now.

She also managed to get a short range radar going, that way if anything comes near the wreck an intruder alarm goes off and the security system pops on, locking down the doors and activating a few turrets on the outside of the ship I managed to get going. Basically everything is sunshine and rainbows right no-

INTRUDER ALERT INTRUDER ALERT

"OH FOR FUCK SAKE!!!!! WHY DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN?"

Grabbing my rifle and sliding on my helmet i made a dash for the outdoor sensor that had been tripped. Hopping out one of the holes we hadn't sealed yet i keep on running until i spot something in the sky. A fucking chariot. Clicking my radio I ping winter "Winter turn off the alarms!"

"The guns to?"

"YES THE GUNS TO! ITS THE PONIES!"

"oh! understood! The guns are down!"

Firing a round straight up I basically lit up my position, The ponies veered towards me and came to a skidding halt, and out of the chariot hopped a very familiar bunch of ponies, the pink one, the blue one, the orange one, the yellowish one, the drake, the white one, and twilight sparkle.

"Goddamn it Twilight do you have any idea about the scare you just gave me?"

"What do you mean Frosty?"

"Did you not hear the goddamn alarms?!"

"OH! that's what those were? sorry we were just coming to ask you for some help."

"oh forget it, what do you need help with?"

"Ive been given a mission to save the crystal empire. And since you obviously have experience in combat i figured you would be a good ally to have along on the mission."

okay what?! Save the Crystal Empire? what is she talking about? "okay, for one, im not a gun for hire, for two what in the world is the crystal empire, and three, why does it need saving?"

"The Crystal Empire was a country of ponies that went missing forever ago after being taken over by king sombra, an evil tyrant. But its just appeared again, And it looks like sombra came with it. So I've been tasked to save it, I'm bringing all my friends and i figured I'd ask you along aswell since you might know more about fighting kings than me, since you beat a queen and all."

Okay i guess that makes sense, wait did she say disappeared and re appeared, with someone who disappeared with it came back with it? now THAT Sounds like a familiar topic. "Disappeared and re appeared huh?"

"yeah, wait do you know something about that?"

"Sounds like a T,D,B"

Twilight seemed to recoil at this, "What the heck is a T,D,B?"

"A Time Displacement Bubble, its an acronym" I replied.

Twilight's friends all seemed confused, Very confused, though the pink one looked as if she understood everything i just said, Twilight however still had questions.

"What the heck is a Time Displacement Bubble?!?!"

"Exactly what it sounds like, a bubble of space that has been displaced in time. Something took the crystal empire, and sent it forward in time. Which to me is VERY fascinating since where im from this kind of thing is ENTIRELY theoretical! i cant wait to get up close and personal with this place."

Twilight although bewildered managed to register the last sentence. "Wait so your coming?"

"heck yeah im coming! a bad guy to be fought, a fantastical phenomenon to be studied AND an entire empire made of CRYSTAL? there's no fucking way in the nine rings of hell that im missing this sure to be shit-show! Though I suggest we take a faster method of travel."

"well at-least you seem excited, wait what kind of method?"

"The Spaceship kind, Ya see I've been busy since you last visited."

After tapping my Tablet a few times i sent winter a text to remote control the pelican to my location. I saw a hangar door open in the distance and pointed.

"what is that?" the blue one asked.

"that my Pegasus friend, is a spaceship." I said as the pelican flew towards us, did a circle, and than landed around 30 meters away. "by the way whats everybody's name? i never learned them"

"I'm Rainbow Dash! the fastest creature in the sky!"

I give a MASSIVE laugh at this.

"whats so funny?"

"Lets just say your about to be proven VERY wrong! anyways what about everybody else?"

"im Fluttershy" replied the yellow one.

"I'M PINKIE PIE! NICE TO MEAT YA!!!!!" Replied the very energetic pink one.

"My name is Applejack" replied a southern voice from the orange one.

"My name is Rarity" replied the white one.

"And my name is spike!" said the drake.

Well that's a collective bunch, guess these guys are kinda like the main group in this place. "Well its nice to meat all of you! now what do you say we load up?" getting a collective cheer from everyone i began to help them into the back of the drop-ship, and than give them a crash course on how to use the fucking harnesses since they're fucking HORSES.

Either way after getting the directions from twilight we were on our way to the Crystal Empire, And I only brought a Single mag for the AR and a fucking sword, this is gonna go fucking great.

Author's Note

WELP here we go! finally getting my ass in gear with this story. I hope you all enjoy! im gonna try and get their personalities a little better but i make no promises, im bad at writing characters from existing shows because i always feel like im being clumsy with how they're acting versus how they're actually meant to act. Anyways let me know what you think and if i missed anything in my twice over the chapter, and if i messed up a little bit to much on their personalities. I'll also try and be more specific with who is talking in the next chapter, which is likely gonna be action packed. See ya then!
