Black Thunder was a pegasus. But not just any normal pegasus, oh no. He was considered one of the fastest flyers in Equestria. The Wonderbolts had often approached Thunder asking him to join. But each time he respectfully declined. His duty laid elsewhere. He was a honorable mail pony. Delivering packages or messages safely and on time was his passion. It was his meaning in life. Luna saw in him a fitting candidate to deliver the message from Celestia to the town of Ponyville.

Unfortunatly Black Thunder was not available as he was attending a mysterious meeting in Manehattan... So Luna decided to get the next best possible thing! and by that I mean the only pony left in Canterlot after the dragon's attack.

A grey cross-eyed pegasus with a blond mane named Derpy Hooves. A mare loved by a majority but despised by some. But there was no pony that could deny that Derpy was capable of great things!

Luna had escorted the grey pegasus to the Throne room where Celestia still resided. Derpy had never met the princess in person before, so she was quitte excited. Celestia smiled genuinely at the cross-eyed pony which made her feel slightly nervous.

"Know that delivering this message is of utmost importance. Are you certain you're capable of this task?" Celestia asked kindly.

"Muffins!" The pegasus responded overjoyed causing Celestia and Luna to frown, Derpy herself facehooved shortly after she realised what she just said. "I'm sorry Princess... Its just that I'm a bit nervous about meeting both princesses on the same day. But I'll get that message to Twilight no matter what! you can trust me!"

"That's great to know. But tell me. What were you still doing in Canterlot when the dragon appeared?" Celestia changed her frown to a smile once again.

"Oh, well since its my day off I flew to Canterlot today because of the big muffin sale ofcourse! Three muffins for one bit, how could I pass that up. Then that big mean dragon landed and everypony started panicking, I wasn't sure on what to do so I hid on a cloud." The grey pegasus responded.

"I think that's very brave of you Ms. Hooves."

"Please call me Derpy! and uhm... When I was on that cloud, I saw three strange monkeys with a royal guard fighting the dragon. Is this letter about them?"

"It is."

"Dont worry then Princess! I'll deliver it to Ponyville right away." Derpy took the scroll in her mouth as Celestia used magic to levitate it to her.

"I can't thank you enough for this. Please be careful during your travels."

"Mmhmhpppmmmh." Derpy voice was muffled because she was holding the letter. But the princesses got the point. They watched the grey pegasus take off with great haste.

The trio had now been escorted to a private chambers. There were tables full of food... Just not the food they hoped for. Salads, Fruits and more vegetables. Also sweets. So. Many. Sweets. To Heavy's surpise there were some sandwiches. However they resembled nothing of his trusty comrade 'Sanvich'. So he proceeded to sulk in a corner talking Russian to himself.

"This is fucking ridiculous!" Carmine slammed his fists on a nearby table. "No fucking meat! what the hell?"

"Carmine listen, these ponies are different from us. It's best to follow their rules so we can return as soon as possible." Ulfgar tried to calm down the COG soldier.

"No you fucking listen. I spend half my damn life fighting in a war eating nothing but crap. Then I just die randomly, get transported to a different world and then some ponies are telling me not to eat meat?" Heavy and the dovakhiin had never seen Carmine this angry all day. They just figured him to be relaxed no matter what.

"But...-" Ulfgar was confused.

"Just fucking stop, I'll get my bacon one way or another."

"The princess told us not to break their rules. I will follow them as told, and as I said. I will destroy all that will oppose me in my quest to return home." The dragonborn started acting serious.

"You think you scare me with your butterknife and fancy magic? I'll fucking cut you up as well. I'm going to hit the sack. Wake me when we're leaving." Carmine pushed the dovakhiin out the way and left the room.

"What is his problem?" Ulfgar now faced Heavy.

"Future man is just angry. Let him sleep and tomorrow he will be nice again. Heavy must rest as well" The Russian sighed.

"Fine, lets just hope he wont do anything foolish."

"Twilight! Twilight!" Derpy just arrived in Ponyville shouting and rushed towards the library. She gracefully crashed through the open window and knocked Rainbow Dash who was also there, reading the latest installment of Daring Do right of her couch.

"Ughh.. Careful Derpy." The blue pegasus rolled her eyes and picked up her book.

"Oh! I'm so sorry Rainbow Dash. Are you alright?" Derpy asked concerned.

"Please! I'm the toughest pony in Equestria! I can take a few hits." Rainbow bragged. "Now. What brings you here in such a hurry?"

"Oh yes! I'm here to deliver an emergency message from the princess and ...-" Derpy got interupted by Rainbow Dash.

"The princess! we saw a big dragon near Canterlot a while ago! what happened?"

"Well I'm not sure but its fine now I think."

"Is there any pony hurt?" Twilight Sparkle now also entered the room.

Derpy shook her head. "No, everypony was escorted outside the town safely. The dragon was defeated by the Royal Guards and some strange creatures. The princess said the letter would about them." The grey pegasus handed to scroll over to Twilight.

"I hope she's not talking about those three monsters we had destroy half the town earlier." Rainbow Dash still didn't like them.

"I'm pretty sure that she is." Twilight sparkle opened the scroll.

My faithful student Twilight Sparkle.

Today has been a dark day for Equestria.

Discord has once again escaped imprisonment and is responsible for bringing beings from different worlds in our realm. I'm aware you've have already met three of them. Fortunatly they've been able to resist Discord's corruption. But he has also brought a dangerous dragon here. Fully corrupted and working to his will. It was luckily defeated by our guests. But I have no idea what he has planned next.

What im asking is if you and your friends are willing to take these three 'humans' under your care and keep a close eye on them. Know that they are extremely dangerous. But they have promised to not harm any pony and keeping them locked up is not an option. I need you and the Elements to assign each of them jobs to keep them occupied while me and my sister will be in pursuit of information about Discord's whereabouts. I need you all not to worry. Things will be handled properly.

-Princess Celestia.

PS. I want my you to personally keep an eye on the one named Ulfgar. He's capable of deploying powerful magic, so you might learn a thing or two. I will send a carriage to escort them in two days.

"WHAT! Discord escaped? But we defeated him! how is this even possible? Rainbow Dash was hovering above Twilight so she could sneakily read the letter as well. Twilight Sparkle was startled as the blue pegasus suddenly started shouting in her ear.

"Ah! Rainbow Dash! It's rude to sneak up on ponies. And I'm not certain how its possible. I was sure we sealed him up for good when we defeated him with the power of the Elements."

"W...W... What you mean Discord escaped?" Derpy seemed frightened.

"Dont be scared Derpy. The princess told us not to worry. I'm not sure how we're going to handle these three humans in Ponyville though." Twilight tried to calm Derpy.

"Yeah! just relax Derpy. If Discord shows his face around here I'll take him down in ten second flat. Same goes for those three freaks." The blue pegasus said.

"Rainbow! the princess told us to take care of them and thats exactly what we'll do. With the power of...-" Twilight was interupted.

"Magic?" Derpy asked.

"Uhm... No. With the power of careful planning!" Twilight was ready to take charge. "Derpy! I need to to fly over to the Mayor and inform her of all this. Rainbow! gather the elements so we can prepare."

"Ughh... I'm sure this is gonna end up badly." Rainbow sighed.

The trio was once again split up. The carriages made to hold four ponies was still uncomfortable and small to the three humans who each had their own. They were carried by the same group of pegasi that escorted them before.

Carmine had calmed down. But inside he was still angry at the lack of bacon. Ulfgar was uncomfortable, sitting and doing nothing the past two days. Heavy was just letting things happen. He seemed to enjoy the beautiful sight from the windows as they were flying atleast two kilometers up in the sky.

After a short trip of about an hour they arrived in a familiair place. The town known as Ponyville. Carmine looked out the window and saw about ten ponies with a large banner. "Welcome to Ponyville Humons!" it said.

Carmine facepalmed as he exited the the carriage. So did Ulfgar and Heavy. Still armed ofcourse. The result was a few ponies clapping slowly and some awkward coughing.

"Well this is wei...-" The COG soldier was silenced by a pink blur that was to fast for a human's eye to follow.

"Hi I'm Pinkie Pie! but you already knew that. And you're Carmine right huh? Huh?" The pink pony tapped Carmine's helmet twice. "Weird name but thats alright! everypony or hewman is my friend of course! do you like parties? Of course everypony loves to party. Doyouwantopartyballoonscupcakesandconfettiand...-" Pinkie Pie got interrupted. A purple glow zipped her mouth shut. "Mmmmppilimm!" she waved her hooves angrily to towards Twilight Sparkle.

"Pinkie please... You're scaring our guests. Welcome to Ponyville humans!" the purple unicorn was the first to properly approach the trio.

"By the gods. Is she always so excited." Ulfgar asked.

"Yeah, what the hell? Even Baird talks less then that." Carmine added.

Heavy was narrowing his eyes. He saw something...

"Mmhhmmmgmm!" the hyper pinky pony was repeatedly jumping up and down. It appears she had her own sound effect.

"Oh she's just being Pinkie Pie. You'll get used to it eventually. Would it be possible if you three could keep the swearing to a minimum please? There's alot of young ponies around and...-" Twilight was now the one being interupted.

"LOOK! THERE IS LITTLE PONY THAT KICKED HEAVY IN FACE!" the Russian yelled and dropped his gun.

The young pegasus known as Scootaloo flinched at this and this and did the one sensible thing. Run like hell. "YAAAAHAHHH!" Heavy ran right behind her with his arms stretched, yelling like a madmen. It looked rather comical seeing them run circles around the carriage.

"Uhm... Excuse me." Heavy stopped as he heard this soft sweet voice.

"OH! is little shy pony! How is Flutter doing?"

"... It's actually Fluttershy... But uhmm... Could you maybe stop chasing Scootaloo please?"

"Njet, little chicken pony must pay for crimes."

"Oh... Im sorry to hear that... But maybe you should atleast hear her out... She wants to tell you she's sorry."

"Little pony apology is no good for me."

"Pleaaaaase." Fluttershy squeaked."

"Hrmmm... Only for shy pony Heavy will hear out little pony." The Russian grunted.

"Go on then Scootaloo, I told you he's not scary at all." Fluttershy gestured the young pegasus to come out her hiding place.

Scootaloo jumped down from the carriage she was hiding in while Heavy and Fluttershy were having their conversation. She approached the large Russian. She felt her heart pounding faster when the human looked down upon her.

"I uhh... I guess I'm sorry for kicking you in the face mister..."

"Is that all." Heavy growled.

"Well you guys said you were going to eat me! what else was I supposed to do!"

"Then stop looking like delicious poeltry." Carmine joked.

"That's not very nice mister Carmine. Scootaloo was just scared." Fluttershy responded.

"Oh yeah! I also found this in that big treasure chest. I guess it belong to you guys." Scootaloo out of nowhere (pony logic) pulled out the stylish sunglasses she scavenged earlier.

"This is... These are Sniper's glasses! this is great gift to me!" Heavy put on the sunglasses with a smile. Having something that reminded of home was comforting.

"So you accept Scootaloo's apology then?" Fluttershy had put on her happiest smile.

"DA! all is forgiven. Heavy will learn little orange pony to fly like mother Russia's own Миль Ми-24!"

"Wow! I have no idea what that is. But it sounds awesome!" Scootaloo's was super excited.

"Is like летающий танк! how do you say in English."

"There's that funny accent of them again'. Ah swear ah have no idea what he's talkin' about." Applejack was the next pony to join the humans.

"We dont either." Carmine said to AJ.

"Well... This has been very interesting. But let's get to the point." Twilight levitated a long list infront of her. "The princess has told us that we should assign you humans jobs. Since you three destroyed half the town last time you were here, I think its more then reasonable that you fix all the damage done. Most shattered windows have already been replaced, but you made two mares very unhappy after uhm... Blowing up their home. Your first job will be to rebuild their house. Applejack here will help you three to get started. We'll discuss where you're staying when you guys are finished for the day. And no Pinkie! we're not going to throw them a party!"

"Awww." Pinkie had her mouth unzipped now and was dissapointed which she showed by deflating her mane.

"Ugh... Atleast not yet." And with those words from Twilight, the pink pony's mane immediatly inflated again.

"Alright then! have fun on your first day in Ponyville!" the purple unicorn waved them of.

The trio sighed in dissapointment, but they were dedicated to hold their promise. Carmine felt slightly guilty, even though Ulfgar shattered all the windows and Heavy destroyed the house with his mini-gun. Carmine actually didn't do anything apart from spraying a few bullets randomly in the air. But still he was going to help rebuild those poor ponies house. Maybe apologize to them afterwards.

Applejack, Heavy, Carmine and Ulfgar arrived at the completely wrecked house. For some reason Scootaloo decided to tag along since her friends werent around. Rainbow Dash was also there, spying on them. She hid on a cloud still distrustful towards the humans.

"So uhh, whaddaya'll know about carpentry?" Applejack asked.

"Are you serious! I've build my home with my own two hands! and no bandit, demon or even the harsh cold winter has ever gotten in." the dovakhiin bragged.

"I was once in work camp in Siberia, Heavy learned how to build there." The Russian followed.

"I've learned a thing or two of some stranded past few years." Carmine added.

"Once again ah have no idea what yer talkin' about. But thats fine, from what ah can understand yer all fine builders. Ya'll certainly seem strong enough to carry heavy things around."

"Oh stop it, you." Carmine blushed under his helmet.

"Me an' ma brother put some supplies across the street earlier, go get em and let's get to work." Applejack ordered the humans.

And so the humans did, the hours passed slowly working in in the the scorching sun. They were all sweating enough to fill a small pool. But with the power of hands, Ulfgar's magic, Applejack's hard work and a convenient eighties movie montage they were able to create an entire house before the end of the day. Sure, it was completely made of wood. And it was much smaller then a human house. But it had two damn floors, a roof and even windows. Ofcourse it wasn't furnished yet but they could let the ponies worry about that themself. All that was left now is putting in the frontdoor.

"Alright guys. Great job! ya can take a five minute break and then we'll finish up for today."

Ulfgar was exhausted. He searched for a nearby fountain. Being in the burning sun all day took its toll on him. He was used to the comforting cold of the north.

Heavy wasn't tired at all. He was throwing Scootaloo in the air hoping she would be able to take of herself. But no matter how hard she flapped her wings, she couldn't gain any altitude.

Carmine took place on a nearby bench. He was used to being in the sun, but still pretty tired from working all day. He was yawning lazily as he got aproached by a cream colored pony. She had a dark blue mane with pink highlights.

"Excuse me... But are you the human that destroyed my house?" She asked.

Carmine looked at the small pony. It didn't really look mad. "Yep, It was a misunderstanding though. I'm really sorry for what happened.

"Really?"

"Uhh... Yeah."

"Then I'll gladly accept your apology! my name's Bon-Bon."

The COG soldier frowned. She's pretty quick to forgive someone who just blew up her home a few days ago. Pony logic he guessed. "I'm Carmine. And we're actually almost done rebuilding your house."

"Really? thats great! Me and Lyra had to stay with a friend the last few days... It'd be great to have our own house again."

"Can I ask why you aren't uhh... Well mad at us?" Carmine asked confused.

"... The truth is I was enraged at first. But Twilight kept begging me to forgive you. Besides, we were able to scavenge our important items from the debris. And since you're actually helping to rebuild our house, I guess there's no harm done."

"What do you mean Twilight kept begging you?"

"Well I'm not sure really. She just kept talking about the princess and kinda looked like she was stressed out. So I just went with it, but thats not what I'm here for!"

"Then what are you here for?"

"I came to warn you about my roommate... Lyra is a little uhh..."

"Crazy?"

"I was gonna say eccentric but yes. She always told us humans existed... We just never believed her upto now. But now she's changed... After you guys blew up our house."

"Pfff, I'm sure she'll forgive us in the e...-" Carmine was interupted by somepony coughing loudly.

"Hello Bon-Bon..." Suddenly the mint-green unicorn known as Lyra appeared behind the COG soldier and Bon-Bon. She gave Carmine a deadly glare.

"Oh Lyra hey! Whats up!" Bon-Bon started laughing awkardly.

"Just what do you think you're doing?" Lyra asked with an angry tone.

"Oh, I was just talking to our new human friend! look Lyra! he even has those hands you were always talking about!" Bon-Bon was flinging around Carmine's arms.

"Hey quit that!" the COG soldier shouted.

"Oh yes humans. I'm not interested in such things anymore." The green unicorn looked away.

"Oh come on Lyra! get over yourself and just forgive them. They even rebuild our house for us!"

"... They did?"

"Yeah we did. It's not done yet. But I can give you a small tour if you want?" Carmine joined the conversation.

"Fine! I'll take a look. But I wont forgive you so easily for what you've done."

"Sure sure. Lets go." Carmine stood up from the bench. Lyra could only look in amazement as the human skillfully walked on just his hind legs. His 'fingers' moved as five indiviual small hooves. Even though Lyra said she wasn't interested in humans anymore, she clearly was.

When they arrived at the house Lyra and Bon-Bon jaws dropped to the ground.

"What? Don't you like it?" Carmine asked.

"Is this our house? B-b-b-butt It's even bigger then what we had before! there are even two extra rooms!" Lyra hopped around in joy. "Now I can have my own music room!"

"So you forgive us then?"

"Yes! oh yes! you humans are such wonderful creatures! now let me see those han...-" Lyra suddenly got knocked over by Scootaloo who Heavy had just thrown through an open window.

"Ouch! I dont think flying inside was a good idea Mr. Heavy." Scootaloo jumped up and spotted something to her interest. "Hey Mr. Robot? What's this spiky ball thing?" The young pegasus grabbed one of the two Bolo frag grenades from Carmine's armor.

"Oh god she just didn't" The grenade clicked. "Shit she did!" Carmine said to himself in his mind.

"TAAAAAAAAAAKE COVER!" the COG soldier shouted as he quickly took over the grenade from Scootaloo and flung it across the room. He then grabbed the three ponies and dramaticly jumped through the window and proceeded to throw them as far as possible. He jumped into Heavy and pushed him to the ground as a devastating explosion erupted from behind them. Once again blowing Lyra and Bon-Bon's house to bits.

Rainbow Dash who had spend more time napping rather hen spying was now laughing her butt off. "And they spend all day fixing it! that's priceless ha!"

"By Ysgromar! what was that!" the dovakhiin was shocked as he encountered the once again destroyed building. All their hard work for nothing.

"What the hay happened here?" Applejack came storming towards Carmine and Heavy.

Carmine's ears were still buzzing from the noise. He couldn't hear the pony shout at him but he was pretty sure what she was asking. "Minor weapon malfunction." He said and then coughed up some dust.

"Aw shucks, now we gotta start all over again. Ah'm mighty sorry for all this Lyr... Lyra?" Applejack saw the green unicorn slowly head towards them. She looked furious.

Heavy was the first to stand and helped his friend Carmine get up as well. The COG soldier was still kind of groggy but he noticed Lyra coming.

"Oh once again I'm sorry for what happened. But I really cou...-" Carmine got stopped midway when he received a two strong pony legs to the knee from the green unicorn. "Ouch! what the hell?"

"Get out! GET OUT!" Lyra started shouting filled with rage and anger. "You humans will stop at nothing to ruin my life! get out right now! I never want to see you again!" She bucked Carmine a few more times!

"What the fuck! ouch! this horse is fucking crazy man!" the COG soldier pushed Lyra out the way. "Screw this. I'm getting the fuck out of here!" Carmine started running of in a random direction.

"Come back ya slacker! we gotta finish the job!" Applejack yelled at the fleeing soldier.

"I dont think we'll have time for that today." Ulfgar pointed out the sun was now nearly gone. Night was coming.

"Ugh... Rainbow! quit yer slackin' and go get that Carmine fella back right now." AJ asked the blue pegasus.

"Fine. Fine. I'll go get him." Rainbow Dash lazily took off.

"Alright. And you two are coming with me. We're meeting with Twilight in the library." Applejack picked up Scootaloo who was just hanging out even though she just nearly killed herself, two other ponies and a human. She didn't really realise what her actions caused. But then again, grenades are not something anypony is familiar with. Heavy and Ulfgar obediently followed. Bon-Bon and Lyra remained.

"Don't you think you were being a bit mean Lyra?" Bon-Bon asked her friend.

"They destroyed our house twice in just a few days! I've had enough of this." Lyra answered agitated.

"From my point of view it looked like he saved us actually... I don't think he meant for this to happen."

"I just dont care anymore. Lets head back to Berry Punch. I deserve some sleep."

Carmine was sprinting for a good five minutes now. Luckily enough he didn't encounter any more crazy ponies on the way. He decided to stick the the edge of the nearby forest. Eventually he encountered a small cottage with seemingly a small petting zoo next to it.

"I wonder if there's any pigs here."
