Everyone was quite shaken when the light came back the guys in the second Hummer got out and came over to us. They weren't wearing Desert MARPAT like we were, they were wearing all black uniforms and they had L98-A2's. They were like, some sort of British Commando Unit. Taking a good look around made me and everyone else wide eyed. We were in a large field with rolling hill on either side of us. It was really cold for everything was covered in a thick blanket of snow and the sky was covered in gray clouds. The wind would nip by every once and a while and the sounds of birds filled the air.

"What the hell just happened?" One of the British Commandos spoke up.

"Does it look like we know? We are just as surprised as you are." Our NCO spat back in anger. The Commando gave him a cross look then he began to pan around looking in every direction. I looked at our NCO name tag, it said Hugh Simons, if I was going to know his name now would be the time. Now knowing his name I wandered over to the edge of the hill before it dropped down into a downward slope I caught eye of a village. It's smoke rose up over the white fields really made it stand out. Hey called to the other guys and told them I saw a village. Them came over and they saw it too. Our NCO and the British NCO began to talk wile me and everyone else waited near the Hummers. They finished talking and came over to us.

"Okay listen up chaps," The British NCO started, "We have decided, that we will try and contact this village and see if we can get any insight of where we are currently located." Our NCO stepped forward, "When we do find out where we are we are going to ask how we got here and how we are going to get back. Is that understood?" Everyone got into attention and all at the same time said, "Sir, yes sir." We went back to the Hummers and got in, and again, I was on the gun. We headed off toward the village as our car went up and down the landscape, we passed forest , a couple frozen lakes and many other things until Hugh stopped the car. He said to wait in the Hummer wile he looked around. By this time the hills were behind and we now face a small path that probable leads into town. Hugh came back and began driving once more, the British Hummer followed.

It looked like some sort of movie, two Hummers heading down a road with trees on either side, none of them having leaves on them and as they drove to wind from the car picked up the snow and it trained behind us. It was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. We kept on driving until we reached a farm. On our way there we noticed the tress were beginning to pull away from the road and they were replaced by a picket fence. The trees then began forming into rows and rows and then fields of trees, that's when we noticed the farm house and barn. We pulled up out front were a sign hung that had a huge red apple painted on it. Me Peter and Hugh walked up to the farm house cause it had a light on inside. Hugh knocked on the door, there was voices then foot steps. The door made a clicking sound and when it opened, we didn't know what to think of it. Because there before us was a big red horse with a green apple on his ass. Hugh turned to me and asked, "Is there a uh, pony stand right there, a red pony, or am I drunk, high, insane, all of the above?" I said yes and hearing this he cringed and looked back at the pony.

"Can, uh, I help you folk?" I looked around for the person who was talking and when I saw no one my eyes turned slowly back toward the pony.

"Did you, just, talk?" Hugh asked.

"Eeyup." The pony said with a deep voice.

We just sort of stared at each other for the moment we didn't know hat to say or do, I was the first to act.

'Hi, uh what's your name?" The pony turned toward me and and smiled.

"My name is Big Mac, and you on Sweet Apple Acers one of the most famous Apple ranches this side of Equestria." I looked over to Hugh as he put a hand on his chin and looked toward me then back to Big Mac.

"So we are in a place called Equestria, right?" Mac Nodded

"And we are on Sweet Apple Acers?" He Nodded again.

"If I may ask, what's your names?" He asked. We then began to say our names one by one starting with Hugh and ending with me.

Mac spoke up again, "If I may ask again, What are you?" We stopped talking and looked at each other for a few seconds then looked back at Mac. We had never hap to answer this question before, we knew what the answer was we just never heard anything ask us before, even a pony.

"We are Humans from the Planet Earth, but, specifically we are Marines from a country called the United States of America." Hugh said as we turned back to Mac for a answer.

"Well what ever you are, you have to be cold right? Why don't you and your friends come in and we can chat there."

He said motioning us to step inside his house.

Hugh put up his hand in reject, "No offence, but, we need to find out how we can get back to our home world, do you know anyone who can help us?"

Mac put a hoof to his chin then pointed to a castle that was built on to the side of a mountain with golden roofs and white towers, right bellow it was a white wall, but behind the wall, was what looked like roofs to a city.

"That's your country's capital, go there you'll find the princess, she'll know what to do."

"Thank you Mac, we'll get going then." We were just about to leave but Big Mac stopped us. We turned around and he said we couldn't just walk into there capital, we would cause a riot. He said he would take us there so that everypony wouldn't feel scared around us.

"Alright then, where should we put our Hummers so they don't get ruined..." Big Mac's ears raised.

"What's a Hummer?" Hugh pointed to the Cars behind us, the British Commandos Still standing there waiting for us.

"Oh those big things over there? Here put them in the front yard." Hugh turned around and shouted for the Commandos to pull up into the yard. There NCO gave him the thumbs up and hopped into on of the Hummers and a Commando Jumped into the other one. Together they pulled up into the yard and parked side by side next to the farm house. After they got out Big Mac walked into the house for a second and came back with a note in his mouth. He then turned around and with a tack posted it on the door. it read,

"Applebloom, I have run out for a few minuet's Granny is still sleeping, keep her that way till I get back, Love Big Mac." He then turned and walked out the gate with us behind him.
