World war 2 sniper

Date December 16, 1944

James answered the radio as I loaded a magazine.

"This is birds nest."

I readied my Springfield as he listened.

"Got it. Bird nest out."

I looked at James.

"Get ready. Kraut's mobile infirmary is moving around this area. A supply runner is coming with some extra sidearm and rifle ammo just in case."

I nodded as I pulled back away from the snowbank. "Hell, I have plenty already."

"What?"

I smirked as I pulled my backpack out of the dugout. I pulled it over and patted the overstuffed bag. He grabbed it and tried to pull it over and dragged it over.

"The hell man!?"

He opened the bag and looked shocked as he pulled out an ammo can.

"What the hell!? How the fuck did you get four ammo cans?"

I laughed as I chambered a round. "I ran out of ammo and was down to just my forty-five in Anzio. The captain of our battalion respects my skill and when I asked him if I could extra ammo. He had more sent as well as food seeing as we are the farthest from camp."

"But, isn't this too much for you to carry?"

I nodded as I looked at the road. "No, kid most of the time I'm staying in or around the same area as I shoot and move. I'll have them set up with extra forty-five ammo. In the spare bag on my side. I keep an extra fourty rounds in loaded magazines."

"Damn man."

I laughed before I heard footsteps. We both got ready in case it wasn't our supply runner. He got his M1 ready, and I pulled out my colt.

"Flash!"

I smiled before I holstered my piece. I stood up and got out of the dugout. "Thunder!" I smiled as I saw the runner coming up with a bag over his shoulder. I walked over, snow crushing under my boots.

"Thanks, your here a hell of a lot sooner than I was expecting."

"Captain sent me to a few nearby forward dugouts. If one of you can hel…."

A shot rang out, and the man in from of me dropped with a hole in his chest. I sprinted back into my dugout. I grabbed my rifle and saw my spotter with his head in the fucking open. "Pull your fucking head in!" I was too late. The back of his neck was blown out, and he fell forward. "FUCK!" I grabbed my bag and his ammo bandoliers. I quickly threw them all on my back and grabbed his rifle.

“Vorauszahlung! Vorauszahlung!”

I quickly got out of my dugout to the sounds of gunfire. 'His truck or bike shouldn't be far.' I raced down the hill. 'Fuck why did I agree to be one of the first sharpshooters in this post!' I got to the dirt road and saw his jeep. 'Damn! I knew I should've stayed at came.' I got to the jeep and got behind it.

"Boom!"

A mortar slammed down as they started over the hill. I slammed a grand clip in and started firing. "What the hell is going on? The ardennes was supposed to be our resting time from the front?!" I shoot two more rushing germans. I took shots as I threw the gear into the back of the jeep. 'I need to get to the forward camp and get word out about this attack.' I emptied the M1 and jumped into the jeep with guns raining around me.

"Halt!"

The jeep roared to life and rushed down the worn-down road. I saw a wall of snow, and a bridge we hadn't blown up. The gunfire was still heavy, but I was a hell of a lot better off. I raced across the bridge and headed for the tunnel cut into the hill. As I rode into the tunnel, I looked at the light on the other side, but something was wrong. I saw a green field on the other side.

I smiled as I looked up at my latest project. My magic viewing mirror was powering up, and the gathered ponies in the field were excited to see what would show from the other side. As we watched, an image showed up. We saw a metal box moving down a dirt road with real urgency.

"Um, Twilight. Is this what we are suppose to be seeing?"

I could hear what sounded like small explosions.

"What is going on?"

I quickly walked over to the safety line with my friends and the reports. As the box turned, I saw a strange creature holding onto a wheel. I could make out the color of its clothes. They were a brown, almost sand color.

"Um, is it getting closer?"

I nodded, and we all started to back up as it turned, coming straight for the mirror. "Everypony run!" We all ran away as the thing smashed through the mirror, breaking. The thing roared. It turned and went crazy around the field. The guards that came to guard the princesses got in front of the crowd, but the creature inside the box didn't move.

"Is that blood?"

I looked at Applejack, then looked closer. She was right blood was on the front of the creature. I gave it a good look too. It had a uniform on with a helmet of some kind. It kind of looked like the new model's princess Luna was trying to get her night-guards

"Do you think it is hurt? They maybe that's why it was going crazy out their."

"What!?"

I looked at Fluttershy before she flew over the guards and the creature. We quickly ran over to her as she looked at it. We reached her as she got her hands on it. It grunted as she moved it back, and its head fell back. It had a huge red spot on its face with a bad nose bleed. Its skin was pale, with some blonde hair under the helmet.

"Is it alive Flutters?"

I looked at Rainbow and sighed as I looked back at Fluttershy as she got the helmet off. She grabbed the sides of its head. I looked around as its eyes opened and closed.

"I think it may be concussed."

Fluttershy opened the coat ignoring the blood, and I saw it had a flat chest. "Okay, so it's a male."

"Augh."

He seemed to be coming out of it, and once he started to come around, he moved fast. He started to fight and shoved Fluttershy away. He started trying to get something off his side.

I came out of the fog and felt someone trying to get my coat off. I came around quick feeling that. I shoved whoever was on me as hard as I could. My vision was still foggy as I reached down to get my colt. Someone grabbed me and pulled me from the jeep. I got slammed to the ground and heard someone yelling in a strong southern accent.

"Don't move you varmint!"

"Not happening, Kraut!" I got my hand free and grabbed a throat as more hands grabbed me. My eyesight cleared, and I looked up at the strangest sight in my life. I had my hand around the throat of a horse's neck. But the body was human, and they were bright green. I let her go and tried to back up. The hands let me go, and I slammed back into the tire. "THE HELL IS GOING!?"

"Down!"

I ducked, and another one with some armor flew over my head, knocking the others to the ground. I jumped up and pulled out the M1 from the back of the jeep and slammed a clip in. I pointed it into the face of the armored horse. "You move, and I'll blow you fucking head off!"

"Um…"

I looked to the side and saw these things surrounding me. I stopped then I noticed more details. All but the ones on the ground were female. "Wait, you're not in combat wear. Are you civilians?" That seemed to get the armored one's attention.

"Yes! Yes, they are civilians."

I took a few more deep breaths as I looked at him. I nodded before pushing the side button in and pulled back on the action. The ammo flew out. I threw the Garand back into the jeep again. I put my hands up as I looked at him. 'Outnumbered best to play smart.' He stood up and looked at me with a bit more relaxed look.

"Will you back up?"

I back away with my hands up. "Sorry, didn't realize I was in a civilian sector. I just had a whole battalion of Kraut at my back shooting to kill. Now, can someone please explain what the fuck is going on?" He nodded as he seemed to realize I didn't want to fight.

"Well, you just broke through a prototype magic viewing mirror. But, I have to ask are you a guard or a soldier?"

The other guards, I guess, come close to me. "Yes, I'm a newly graduated Sergeant with the US third armies 28th rifle division, reckon sniper." The Stallion, I think, quickly stiffed as he looked at him.

"Your an nco!?"

I nodded, and the other seem to relax. I dropped my arms as I talked with him.

"Well, all this is, but we need to talk." I blinked and turned to see two huge mares? One was bigger than the other. She had a white coat of fur with a green, blue, and purple mane. It looked like it was following in its own wind. She had on a golden dress with a fucking crown on. A large necklace rested around her neck with a large gem in the center. Her eyes were a mix of pink and, I think, light purple.

"Sir are you okay?"

I looked at the smaller one. She was a dark blue with a light blue dress on. Her mane was like the night sky and did the same as the other mares. Her eyes were blue, but the most strange thing was they both had horns and wings. "Ya, just wondering how the hell this all happened."

"Would you like to talk about it?"

I laughed as I looked at the marble-colored mare. "Um, not really I just watched two of my squad mates get killed and now I'm wondering if I've been killed." I walked over and sat back on the jeep's driver seat.

"Um Sir."

I looked over at a purple mare, and she had a horn but no wings. "Ya?" She cleared her throat before she walked over to me and held a hand out.

"I'm Twilight Sparkle and um your name?"

I snorted and laughed a little. 'Fuck it.' I grabbed her hand and shook it. "John Asher. But, call me John or Johnny like my friends used to call me." She smiled, and I looked at the green-eyed mare. I rubbed the back of my neck as I looked at her. "Sorry about the grab and shove." She laughed before she pointed to a cream-colored mare.

"You shoved her but apology accepted."
