Everyone was gathered around the remains of the crystal heart all wearing a look of disbelief.

''So not only can we not take part in a ancient fabulous ceremony, but we're also about to be frozen solid!'' Rarity exclaims.

''Without the crystal hearts magical protection the entire city's about to become a winter wasteland!'' Twilight states with worry.

"But what about when king Sombra ruled the crystal empire and the crystal heart was missing, the city wasn't covered in snow then?'' Applejack asked.

''The heart wasn't missing it was still in the castle, king Sombra had just hidden it.'' Twilight explains.

''I'm afraid Twilight is correct and the storm clouds are already forming!'' Celestia states with worry revealing the forming storm clouds.

''I can totally fly up and clear those puppies no problem!'' Rainbow boasts as she attempts to fly out the window but is stopped when the curtain closes on her.

''I wouldn't advise it Rainbow Dash, those storm clouds are not like the ones you know.'' Celestia tells her.

''She's right speedy, this snow storm is more like the ones my people have back home, to rush in without thinking is a surefire way to get yourself hurt or worse.'' Johnny tells her.

''This far north the weather has a will of its own , and now it will grow stronger, enveloping everything in its path.'' Luna explains.

''Including the crystal empire!'' Cadence says hugging her daughter.

''And us along with it!'' Twilight exclaims as Pinkie pulls her into a death grip hug.

Everyone had a look of rear and worry on their faces as some tried to figure out what to do.

(Tyler)

Tyler had his attention on a small gem that reminded him of a soul gem from Skyrim.

''There's gotta be somethin.'' Barb says looking through the list.

''I-I know princess Twilight is keen on the two of us rekindling our friendship, but it's been so long, I don't see how anything on that list is going to help.'' Sunburst says looking unsure.

''I know right, it's not like there some spell that would magically compel us to pick up where we left off.'' Starlight says hoping to get out of this.

''Oh actually there's several!'' Sunburst says before his horn is coated in a yellow aura and uses his hands to magically bring three books to him. ''Miss mane material-amity, Rock Hoof's repore, Flash Prance's fellowship-'' Sunburst stops as he sees the raised brow that Starlight is giving him and clears his throat. ''But I get the feeling that the princess isn't looking for a spell.'' He says with nervous smile.

''Definitely not!'' Starlight replies with a giggle.

''Got it!'' Barb shouts getting their attention. ''And if all else fails ask them to reveal an embarrassing moment from their past, maybe even something they regret!'' She reads making them both wince.

''U-Um I don't see how that would help.'' Sunburst says sweating a bit.

''U-Uh yeah, we should just get out of your mane, it's pretty obvious this isn't going how Twilight hoped and I'm sure you have plenty of important work to do.'' Starlight says picking up Barb in her magical aura with Tyler following right behind them.

''What? Oh right, yes, no rest for the wizardly.'' Sunburst says levitating a book over to himself while maintaining a nervous grin.

''Come on Barb, Tyler you too.'' She says grabbing Tyler by his vest.

''Hey!'' Tyler protests as he is dragged out of the house.

Twilight shivers as a bone chilling breeze blows past her.

''There must be a spell that can restore the crystal heart?'' Twilight asked her former mentor.

Celestia had a thought then spoke. ''Perhaps.''

''But it isn't something that either of us know.'' Luna says.

''The library at the castle is nearly as extensive as the one in Canterlot.'' Cadence says handing Flurry over to Shinning. ''There's a good chance that we can find something there.''

''Can you hold off the storm?'' Twilight asked the princesses.

''Yes for a time but even our magic will eventually succumb to the power of the frozen north.'' Luna tells her.

''We will do what we can but you must hurry.'' Celestia tells them as she and Luna take to the sky to fight off the storm.

''I'll go and assist with the evacuation.'' Johnny says grabbing the combat drones and taking them to help with the evacuation.

''Johnny wait!'' Vick called getting his attention. ''Here take my rifle, it'll only get in my way.'' She says handing him her M4 and the ammo. ''Don't worry I won't be completely defenseless, I'll still have my pistol and combat knife.'' She says gesturing to her Glock and knife.

Johnny takes the rifle and ammo and hands them to one of the combat drones who quickly disassembled it and place it in the pack it was carrying and continued out to assist with the evac.

(Vick)

Vick watched as Johnny left to help with the evacuation and turned her attention to Twilight and the girls.

''I don't know how long it will take to find the right spell, but you should probably tell the crowd outside to get somewhere warm.'' She tells them.

''And try not to mention the crystal heart, we don't want to start a panic.'' Cadence says to the girls.

''Yes ma'am, Come on girls!'' Applejack says rushing outside.

''Oh crap, I gotta Johnny know!'' Vick says activating her helmet. ''Johnny do copy?''

[Yeah I read you loud and clear, what's going on?]

''What ever you do you can't mention the crystal heart being shattered to the gathering crowd as to not start a panic, and the princesses never said anything about evacuating the city, they believe they have a way to fix the heart, you just need to convince the crowd to get somewhere warm or back to their home.'' She tells him.

[Are you kidding me!?]

''Look just do what you can ok?'' She asked.

[*Sigh* Fine but if things get any worse I'm calling for the evacuation, over and out.]

''I'm gonna need all of your help, the crystal library is enormous.'' Twilight says to everyone else.

''You can count on us Twilly.'' Shinning Armor responded. Flurry reached out to Pinkie Pie, realizing that she couldn't get out of her fathers grip she teleported out of his arms and onto Pinkie's face.

''AHH!'' Pinkie screamed as she threw Flurry off her face out of fear sending her flying through the air prompting both Cadence and Shinning to gasp.

''I got her!'' Vick screamed as both she and Shinning jumped to catch Flurry only for her to teleport.

''Where'd she go!'' Shinning asked in a panicked voice.

Shortly after he said that everyone heard the baby's giggles echo in the castle. Cadence listened for where the giggles were coming from and found that they were coming from inside the castle.

''Well that's not creepy at all.'' Vick says sarcastically.

''This way!'' She said pointing toward the direction of the giggles.

(Tyler)

Tyler, Barb, and Starlight were walking back to the castle with Starlight looking dispirited the whole way.

''Well Barb, looks like my biggest fears came true, I wouldn't be surprised I Twilight gives up on me entirely.'' Starlight says with a look of hopelessness.

''Nah it's not your fault, I'm the one who said all we needed was this list.'' Barb says then proceeds to burn the list.

''*Sigh* It's not the list Barb or you, or Twilight, it's me that Sunburst doesn't want to be friends with.'' Starlight says looking at the ground.

''I don't remember him saying that he didn't want to be friends.'' Barb said sounding unsure.

''Yeah he never said anything about not wanting to be your friend Starlight.'' Tyler said trying to cheer her up.

''He didn't have to.'' She says coming to a complete stop.

Barb immediately thought of something that would cheer Starlight up. ''Well Twilight obviously thinks you're worth being friends with, and I do too!'' She says giving her a hug.

''Same here Starlight.'' Tyler says resting his hand on her shoulder. ''What you did in the past doesn't define what you want to be in the future. I'm going to quote one of my nations past leaders by the name of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, our 35th president, change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or the present are certain to miss the future. Meaning that if you keep focusing on your past mistakes, you'll never grow as a per- pony and you'll miss a lot of opportunities'' He tells her.

''Aww thanks guys!'' Starlight says bringing them into a hug. ''At least I have three friends, even if one of them has dragon breath.'' She says in a joking manner.

Barb checks her breath to see that it wasn't her breath coming out, but steam. ''Uh that's not dragon breath.'' She tells her.

''Hey girls is it just me or is it really cold?'' Tyler asked trying to warm himself.

''He right it's freezing!'' Barb says rubbing her arms shivering a little.

The three look around to see that it was snowing a bit.

''But I thought the crystal heart was supposed to keep the cold weather out?'' Starlight asked looking puzzled.

''It is, unless something's happened come on!'' Barb Shouts but stops as her body starts to register the cold.

''Shit!'' Tyler says before taking off his coat and putting it on her. ''Here Barb, you need this coat more than I do. Starlight do you know any heating spells?'' He asked.

''No I don't.'' Starlight says with concern for her dragoness friend.

''Then we better get her back to the castle quick!'' Tyler says placing Barb on his back and starts running toward the castle.

(Johnny)

Johnny was trying his best not to lose his temper but these civilians where stubborn as hell, they refused to leave.

''Look all we're saying is that it might be the best idea to stay outside.'' Rainbow says trying to convince the gathered ponies to go.

''I camped here all night for this spot, I'm not about to just give it up!'' Said a middle aged mare in the front row getting others to nod their heads in agreement.

''Still, when you think about it the view is just as good a little further back, like inside your house.'' Fluttershy said meekly with a nervous smile getting confused murmurs from the crowd.

''The crystalling ceremony is one of our most sacred traditions, and when that foal is held before the crystal heart, I plan to be as close to the action as possible!'' Said a stallion with a light yellow coat, wearing a pair of brown pants, a plaid shirt, and a blue vest with a matching hat both covered in a large amount of pins.

''Honestly I don't know if there's gonna be a crystalling, the truth is the baby's an alicorn and her magic's plum crazy so you might not want to be that close after all.'' AppleJack say with a bit of warning.

''A baby alicorn!? Wow I can't wait to see that!'' Exclaimed the middle age mare.

''Oh those little wing are probably so cute!'' Exclaimed the stallion wearing the vest.

''I know right!?'' A light orange stallion with a two tone blue mane and mustache wearing a blue suit and a red beret said in agreement.

''Look I'm a hundred percent sure the crystalling is not happening!'' Rainbow said who was starting to get irritated with the crowd.

A short moment later everyone's attention was focused on the castle when a number of magic blasts were shooting out of the castle walls, some in a firework like display.

''No crystalling huh, then why are they showing a fireworks show?'' The light orange stallion says as the crowd cheers for the fireworks like beams.

Rainbow and Johnny couldn't help but face palm at what he said, Rainbow buried her face in her hands and let herself float to the ground while the question was so stupid it actually gave Johnny a headache.

''Oh my god, never in my life have I been confronted with so much stupid.'' Johnny says as Fluttershy pats Rainbow on the back.

(Vick)

Vick was in the crystal library helping to look for a book with some sort of spell that could help restore the pieces of the crystal heart while Shinning Armor, Pinkie, and Rarity were trying to catch Flurry Heart who was flying all over the library.

''Come to auntie Pinkie Pie!'' Pinkie said skipping after the infant.

Twilight was currently sitting at a desk with a pile of books reading them for the needed spell. ''Write a books boat chants, Heyhoofs atonements, Mystic's maps and mazes, ugh! Anything up there?'' She asked Cadence who was looking through shelf after shelf searching for the book they were looking for.

''Not yet, I'm not even sure how these are organized.'' Cadence tells her.

*Pop* Flurry Heart appears in front of Cadence, she slowly reaches for her but then the baby hiccups and lets out a blast of magic and pops out of her reach just quickly as she appeared.

''Shinning Armor, I thought you were taking care of the baby?'' Cadence said with confusion as she watches her husband run after the baby.

''I'm trying!'' Shinning say trying to catch his daughter who was flying and teleporting all over the library. Flurry was flying down hallway to hallway and teleporting out of her fathers reach whenever he got too close giggling the whole time, she was flying down the hall when Rarity jumped out of a corner with a butterfly net.

''Got ya!'' Rarity shouts as she swings the net downwards to catch the baby only for her to teleport away from the net and behind the fashionista. ''Or not.'' She says.

It was at that time that Starlight, Tyler, and Barb walked into the library, barb was walking but clinging the winter coat closer to her frame to warm herself, looking at what was happening they saw that Flurry Heart was flying around the library with Rarity, Pinkie, and Shinning Armor trying to catch her.

''Vick can you help them out?'' Twilight asked.

''On it!'' Vick replied joining the fray.

''What's going on!?'' Starlight and Tyler asked as they both dodged a magic blast.

''You want the long or the short version?'' Pinkie asked while getting dragged by Flurry.

''Um short?'' Tyler asked confused.

''After you guys left to go to your friendship lesson me Twilight and Vicky went to go see Cadence and Shinning Armor and Cadence took the baby so she let out a loud cry and she accidently destroyed the crystal heart, so Twilight and Cadence are trying to find a spell to put it back together and save the crystal empire from turning into a giant wasteland of ice and snow.'' Pinkie finishes with a smile.

''Oh.'' Starlight said.

''Shit.'' Tyler said after.

Cadence had found a book that she thought might help and looked it over.

''What about this!'' Cadence asked tossing the book to Twilight. ''Troters tome of relicquary (I don't know how to spell the last part).''

Twilight flipped through the book and smiled after finding a spell the sounded like it would help. ''I think this is it!'' Twilight said showing her the spell.

Cadence read the spell and gave a wide smile. ''Spell of relic reconstitution, I can't believe we've found it!'' Cadence exclaimed.

''It's a good thing too, without this I don't know what'd we'd do.'' Twilight says smiling. A few seconds later Flurry teleported next to her and flew away as Pinkie jumped to grab her but missed.

''Got ya you adorable little trouble maker!'' Vick says catching Flurry by the waist who was giggling from the fun but without warning Flurry let out hiccup and shot out a magic blast sending both her and Vick flying back from the recoil.

''Ahh!'' Rarity screamed pulling out a mirror deflecting toward Shinning who used a shield spell and deflected it to Starlight, Tyler and Barb, reacting quick Starlight used a bubble shield spell and successfully deflecting the magic blast but accidently sent it barreling toward Twilight who barley had enough time to react as she ducked out of the way but forgot the book resulting in the blast going right through the book destroying it in the process.

''Oops.'' Vick said.

Twilight could only look in horror as the only thing that could save the empire was now destroyed.

''That spell was the only thing in the whole library that was even close to what we needed!'' Twilight exclaimed with shock.

''I'm so sorry Twilight!'' Starlight said in desperation.

''It's not your fault Starlight, none of us were expecting any of this.'' Twilight said looking at the remains of the book.

''Do you think you can remember the spell?'' Cadence asked.

''I only read it through once!'' Twilight complained.

''Too bad Johnny's not here dude has a photographic memory, he would be able to tell you what you'd want even if he skimmed the page.'' Tyler says.

''Well if anypony can exactly remember something she read for the first time two minutes ago it's you Twilight.'' Rarity says cheering her on.

''Yeah if anypony can do this it's you Twilight!'' Vick said giving her the confidence boost she needed.

''Thanks girls, I'll try but I'm not sure how long it'll take.'' Twilight said flipping through the destroyed book, a small cold breeze interrupted her thoughts.

''Is quickly an option?'' Pinkie asked looking nervous as the storm clouds got worst.

''I'll help if I can but we should evacuate the city just in case, you need to lead everypony to the train station before the tracks freeze over. Cadence says taking Flurry in her arms.

''We will but between you and Twilight I'm sure you'll remember the spell.'' Shinning says giving his wife and child a hug.

With that Shinning and the others left to go help with the evacuation leaving Twilight and Cadence to remember the spell with Starlight, Barb and Tyler.

''I only hope this spell is the one we need.'' Twilight says grabbing a quill and parchment.

''Is there anything I can do?'' Starlight asked.

''I don't think so, I'm just sorry about your lesson.'' Twilight says.

''Ugh that doesn't matter now, Sunburst and I don't have anything in common anyway, he's a big important wizard, and I'm relearning everything I ever thought I knew.'' Starlight says looking dejected.

''Sunburst? I don't recognize the name, but if he's an important wizard you should bring him here, maybe he'll know what to do if the spell fails.'' Cadence asked getting a look of excitement from Stalight.

''*Gasp* Of course!'' Starlight shouted running off to Sunburst's.

''You better go- Barb are you ok?'' Twilight asked seeing her sister shiver.

''I'm afraid it's the weather Twi.'' Tyler told her getting a confused look from her.

''What do you mean?'' Twilight asked.

''What I mean is that Barb's kind are closely related to the reptile family, which means they are highly susceptible to extremely cold weather, Barb is in some dangerous waters with this weather.'' Tyler tells her getting looks of worry from both of the princesses.

''Is there anything we can do?'' Twilight asked him.

''The best you can do is keep her warm, if you know any heating spells now would be a good time to use them or get the guard to bring some warm clothes for her.'' He tells them. ''I'm going to help with the evac, my winter coat should help for a time but she needs a source of heat, just try what you can.'' With that Tyler left to go help.

(Starlight)

Starlight was running through the streets of the crystal empire in hopes that Sunburst might be able to help and save the empire.

''Starlight!'' A voice called making her stop and look, she saw Tyler catching up to her.

''Tyler? What are you doing, I thought you were helping with the evacuation?''

''I'm here to lend you a hand with Sunburst, it's obvious that you both are hiding something, you with your past, and what ever he's hiding so I'm going with you in case we need a backup plan.'' He tells her.

''Ok lets go!'' Starlight says running towards Sunburst home with Tyler following close behind.

(Time skip 5mins)

Starlight and Tyler burst through the door both freezing and out of breath.

''Sunburst!'' Starlight called getting his attention. ''Haven't you looked outside!?''

Sunburst look out his window to see that it was snowing. ''Snow? That's not right the crystal heart-''

''Is gone! The baby, Shinning Armor and Cadence's baby, it's an alicorn!'' She says getting a look of shock from him.

''Really?!'' Sunburst says with surprise.

''Really! And her magic is a little berserk and well I guess she destroyed heart and Twilight thinks she can fix it and princess Cadence thought you could help!'' Starlight says in a panicked voice.

''Me?!'' Sunburst says nervously.

''Of course you're an important wizard in the crystal empire it just makes sense!'' She says getting uncomfortably close to him and backing him into a book shelf.

''R-Right. Right, right, right, right.'' Sunburst repeats picking up book after book and starts reshelving them. ''Y-You know I'd like to help I really would I-I just have so much, um important wizard work to do around here.''

''Huh!?''

''Are you kidding me, what's more important that helping save the crystal empire!?'' Tyler shouts.

Johnny was trying his best not to lose what patience he had left, Applejack was trying her best to convince the ponies to head home but all refused to leave.

''You can't stay here!'' Applejack shouts with a frustrated tone.

''Did I mention that this is a royal crystalling, when the crysteler holds the young one aloft, all of the empire will share their joy and light and the crystal heart will beat stronger than it ever has before.'' The orange stallion replied.

''It really is a moving ceremony.'' The blue vested stallion said tearing up a little.

The girls were shivering at this point as the residents still refused to listen.

''I really don't think it's going to happen!'' Fluttershy insisted as she hugged her sweater closer to her frame.

''Come on, it's freezing out here!'' Rainbow says shivering from the cold.

The middle age mare looked unconvinced. ''Uh this is the crystal empire, we've seen snow before.'' She said looking unamused.

''Not like this!'' A voice said getting their attention.

The crowd look to see Shinning Armor on the stage.

''We don't have time to argue, princess Cadence has decided to evacuate the city!'' Shinning says getting gasp from the crowd.

''But the crystalling-''

''I don't know if we'll ever have another crystalling again, the crystal heart. Is shattered.'' Shinning says with sadness.

The crowd had a wave of shock wash over them and others had a look of panic.

''It's not safe here!'' The middle aged mare shouted.

Applejack and the others just face palmed.

''*Sigh* That's-''

''No shit Sherlock, that's what we've been trying to tell you!'' Johnny shouts. ''Now I want all of you to get to the train before the tracks freeze over, now!'' He ordered getting all of them to start running towards the train station.

''Starburst I know you're busy but did you hear what I said!'' Starlight shouted.

''What gives man!'' Tyler shouted.

''O-Oh I heard you b-but like I said, when you're an important wizard the work just piles up.'' Sunburst says placing a pile of books on a different pile.

''Sunburst!'' Starlight shouted making him flinch.

''*sigh* Look Starlight I want to help, I do but I can't. I wish I could.'' Sunburst says with a frown.

''What do you mean?'' Starlight asked placing her hand on his shoulder.

Sunburst jerks his shoulder free from her hand. ''Fixing an ancient relic! I can even come close to doing something like that!'' He shouts.

''But I thought you were an important wizard?'' Starlight asked.

The guilt was just too much for Sunburst and just like that he snapped.

''Well, you were wrong, OK, I'm not an important wizard, I'm not even a wizard at all!'' Sunburst shouted then ran away with tears in his eyes leaving Starlight shocked and Tyler with a look of disappointment.

Tyler and Starlight looked in the living room to see Sunburst sitting in a chair looking miserable.

''I know it's hard for you to understand, but not all of us end up achieving greatness.'' He says looking ashamed.

''W-What? Why wouldn't I understand that?'' Starlight asked taking a seat across from him.

''Really? You're the protégé of the princess of friendship, I don't think she just picks anypony for that!'' He tells her.

''If only you knew.'' Tyler mumbled out loud getting a strange look from Sunburst and a glare from Starlight. ''Sorry.''

''Whatever, I'm sorry I'm not the big important wizard you were expecting.'' Sunburst says looking down at the table.

''Sunburst, I don't care if you're a wizard or not I'm just surprised, you always knew so much about magic, I mean look at all these books.'' Starlight gestures to the number of books on the shelves.

''Reading about magic is one thing, you don't know what it was like at magic school, to know so much and not be able to do any of it!'' He said slamming his palm on the table.

Starlight had a sad and guilty expression on her face before she finally spoke her mind. ''Well you don't know what it was like to be left behind!'' She yells. ''And then getting so bitter you steal the cutie marks from an entire village and then get defeated by Twilight and her friends, so you travel through time to get back at them but they beat you again and teach you about friendship but you're terrified ponies will find out what you did and can't make any friends!'' She screamed as tears were streaming down her face, Tyler rubbed Starlight's back to make her feel better as she let out small sniffles.

Sunburst just looked at her with a thousand yard stare with his mouth agape and his glasses sliding down his face before he corrected them and spoke. ''Did you really travel through time?'' He asked with surprise. Sunburst got up walked to Starlight. ''I'm sorry we lost touch, maybe if I had reached out you could have helped me at magic school and I could have helped you.'' He said sad smile.

''And not become totally evil?'' Starlight said with a nervous smile and Sunburst smiles back and fixes his glasses. ''*Sigh* Lets just says I know what it's like to have something you're not exactly proud of.'' She says rubbing her arm a bit.

''You showed up thinking I was some big wizard.'' Sunburst said with a chuckle. ''*Sigh* I'm sorry, I should have told you the truth.''

''It's fine, at least we worked it all out, I think Twilight would be proud of us!'' Starlight said placing her hand on his chest.

''Well if you ever want to tell her I suggest we go now, the storm's getting worse!'' Tyler states as he looks out the window.

''*Gasp* I forgot to tell you, they're evacuating the city!'' Starlight shouted and began pushing Sunburst through the door. ''You need to get to the train station. Unless you have a spell here that can drive back the frozen north and fix the crystal heart so the baby can have her crystalling?'' Starlight asked nervously.

''The crystalling. Of course!!'' Sunburst screamed as he figured out a plan, running to a bookshelf he began using his magic and levitated multiple books and began speed reading through them leaving Tyler and Starlight confused.

In the sky just above the crystal empire the princesses were giving it their all to try to keep the storm at bay so that the citizens of the crystal empire could escape on the train but the storm was slowly overpowering them as snow was building up on their bodies and the cold was slowly freezing the joints of their wings making it difficult to stay in the air.

''Push them back my sister!'' Celestia shouted as she concentrated more magic from her horn into her hands and blasting away the storm clouds.

Both princesses continue to blast beams of concentrated magic at the clouds that were slowly getting closer and closer. Down on the ground the citizens of the crystal empire were rushing to the train station with Johnny and prince Shinning Armor leading the way.

''This way!'' Shinning Armor yelled as he lead the citizens to the train.

''Move it people!'' Johnny yelled following the prince. As they ran toward the station he noticed that some of the citizens were slipping on the ice, he went to help them but saw that some of the other citizens and Fluttershy were helping them. Looking to the sky he saw Rainbow busting some of the storm clouds the best she could as ice began to build up on parts of her body, she came back down do to the ice build up making it difficult for her to fly and began running next to him.

''Aren't you cold?'' Rainbow asked.

''Less talking more running kid!'' Johnny shouted over the storm.

''Just a little bit further y'all, stations just ahead!'' Applejack shouted.

Celestia and Luna were losing ground as they tried to push the storm back.

''We can't hold much longer sister, we have to head down!'' Celestia yells to her sister, as she was about to head down a stray bolt of lightning from a storm cloud struck her horn. ''AHH!'' Celestia screamed as the lightning coursed through her body making her unintentionally cast a very powerful summoning spell.

(Earth)

(Location: Moscow training grounds) (Sentences will be like this for characters speaking in different languages sometimes or speaking in their heads.)

It was a normal day in Moscow, citizens would wake up, go to work, and children would go to school, but for a certain Russian Tank commander, his name is Dimitri Kravchenko, he is thirty years old, stands at a height of 6'2, weighing 225 Lbs, green eyes, black hair that was cut to military standards, he was gearing up in his uniform which consisted of combat boots, green camouflage tank uniform, a pair of thick wool gloves, and a military beret. Once he had on his uniform he walked down to the armory to get the last of his gear, along the way he was joined by his two tank crewmates, Boris Medvedev and Anton Sokolov. Boris was a twenty year old male with brown hair and blue eyes, standing at a height of 5'8 and weighing in at 180 Lbs.

''Good morning Colonel!'' Boris said walking down the hall of the base to the armory.

''Good morning SSgt Medvedev, I see that your uniform is freshly pressed, as it should.'' Dimitri says then looks at Pvt Anton who was still the newest recruit looking nervous. ''Pvt Sokolov calm down, this is just practice.'' Dimitri said trying to calm the recruit.

''Y-Yes sir!'' Anton said looking nervously.

Dimitri just sighed he didn't know why the recruit was nervous, he passed basic with flying colors, had the knowhow to get into the tank division and he follows orders well, but when it comes to normal conversations the boy was as shy as a three year old, especially around the female recruits that tried to talk with him. Anton was the youngest in the tank crew at eighteen, had short blonde hair, blue eyes and weighed 170 Lbs, both of them were in the same uniform as him but with Boris and Anton wearing tank crew helmets and Dimitri wearing his military beret. Reaching the armory Dimitri greeted the Quartermaster.

''Ah Vadim how are you this fine morning?'' Dimitri asked with a smile.

''Dimitri my friend, you will be happy to hear that certain package you requested has arrived.'' Vadim said bringing a small rectangular box from behind the counter.

''Excellent!'' Dimitri says taking the box and holding it with his left arm.

''Now, on to your weapons.'' Vadim says going into the armor grabbing the weapons for the tank crew. ''Dimitri your AK-74.'' He says placing a rifle along with five spare mags in front of Dimitri. ''The Saiga 12 for Medvedev.'' He says placing the shotgun in front of Boris also with five spare mags. ''And finally for pvt Sokolov the Vityaz SN.'' He finishes placing the smg in the pvt's hands and also with five spare mags.

After they had received their weapons they left to the tank yard for training.

''Off to the tank yard comrades!'' Dimitri exclaimed.

''Yes sir!'' Both Boris and Anton said.

''There she is boys, ain't she a beaut!'' Dimitri says looking at the T-90.

''Alright enough staring, lets get her started up!'' Dimitri shouts.

''Yes sir!'' Boris and Anton said climbing into the tank.

Dimitri let out a delighted sigh as he listened to the roar of the engine.

''Have you ever heard anything more beautiful?'' He asked his subordinates.

''First time commander.'' Anton said.

''Never gets old sir.'' Boris said with spirit.

''I like your enthusiasm SSgt Medvedev! Now lets start this day off with a bang!''

The tank didn't get to move an inch as beam of light fell from the sky and hit the tank leaving nothing behind but a black singe outline of the tank.

''AHH!'' Celestia screamed as she fell from the sky.

''SISTER!'' Luna screamed flying after her.

Down below ponies watched in horror as they watched princess Celestia fall from the sky, Rainbow dash tried to fly up and catch her but the cold prevented her from opening her wings.

''Oh no!'' Applejack screamed.

''A fall from that high will kill her!'' Shinning Armor screamed as he watched Celestia fall.

''Son of a bitch!'' Johnny shouted, not wasting any time he quickly teleported to catch her.

*WOOSH*

Celestia was falling and getting closer to the ground and her sister beating her wings faster and faster but was unable to catch up to her.

''Please mother, let me save my sister.'' Luna thought as tears streamed from the sides of her eyes.

Before Luna knew it Johnny appeared just underneath Celestia and caught her, disappeared and reappeared on the ground safely carrying Celestia bridle style.

''What in the name of Faust?!''

*WOOSH*

Johnny appeared holding a barley conscious Celestia in his arms.

''Did. Did you just use magic?'' Shinning asked him with a look of shock.

Johnny looked to see that everyone around him was staring at him in complete shock that he just teleported and saved the princess's life.

''I'll explain later, right now we have to get to the train station!'' Johnny yells making them all remember the situation they were in.

The crowd continued to run towards the train station until they met up with Starlight, Sunburst, and Tyler.

''We have to go back!'' Starlight yells over the storm.

''I know how to stop this!'' Sunburst says getting looks of hope from everyone.

(Twilight and the others)

Twilight was putting the finishing touches on the recreated relic spell while Vick and Riley were using their own body heat to keep Barb warm.

''Uh I think that's everything?'' Twilight says handing the spell to Cadence.

''It look right to me, but there's only one way to find out.'' Cadence says walking over to the crystal heart shards.

Twilight begins feeding magic into the shards and Cadence does the same slowly putting the crystal heart together, as the heart began to take on it full form Twilight and Cadence had wide smiles on their faces but their hopes were completely destroyed when the heart fell apart.

''The spell failed, I don't know what else to do.'' Twilight said looking to the ground.

''An old student of our sister believes he does.'' Luna says getting her attention.

Twilight look to see her brother, her friends and both princesses but saw that Johnny was carrying Celestia.

''Oh my goodness what happened!?'' Twilight asked with worry as she looks at the state of her former mentor.

''She was struck by a lightning but I managed to catch her in time before it was too late.'' Johnny explains. ''She's probably gonna be out for a while.''

Twilight looks at her mentor with worry.

''The baby did this?'' Sunburst says looking at the shards.

Twilight looks away from her mentor and walks to Sunburst with the spell in her hands. ''I tried putting it back together with-''

''The spell of relic reconstitution, that won't do it.'' Sunburst says crumbling the spell. ''The crystal heart's been around for a millennia, restoring a relic like this is magic way beyond one spell, you need to combined it with something else, something unique to the relic itself, something that strengthens it and provides it with power.'' He says hinting towards something while handing her the book he had.

''The crystalling!'' Twilight exclaims.

''Combining that spell with the light and love of everypony that gathered for the ceremony.'' Sunburst says. He than begins to hand out different spells to Starlight and Shinning and Cadence. (Because I can't spell half the shit he was reading out of those books, and I'm too lazy to go back and try to figure it out.)

''You must be Sunburst, Starlight said you were a powerful wizard.'' Cadence said.

''Oh I'm no wizard.'' Sunburst said getting looks of shock from everyone in the room.

''Wait hear him out first guys!'' Tyler says trying to calm them down.

''He's studied magic his whole life, you should see his house, and since nopony has any ideas what do we have to lose!'' Starlight says looking desperate.

''*Sigh* The kid's right, this spell is the best shot we got and I say we give him the benefit of the doubt.'' Johnny says placing Celestia on the ground.

Everyone starts to give nods of agreements thinking that this is the best shot.

Cadence gives Flurry heart to Shinning and Shinning gives the spell for Flurry's magic to her.

''I had planned on asking Twilight to be our crystaller, but since it seems she'll be busy.'' Shinning says handing Flurry to Sunburst surprising him.

''I'd be honored.'' He says as Flurry plays with his glasses.

''Well what are we waiting for!'' Twilight says with hope.

Everyone then runs outside with Barb feeling a little better and staying to watch over Celestia. Twilight, Luna and Starlight started to feed magic into the Crystal heart and started putting it back together.

Outside the citizens were gathered in front of the stage for the crystalling, Shinning and Cadence stand on opposite sides of Flurry and kiss her cheeks making her giggle with joy and Both parents touched their horns to Flurry's, magic soon enveloped the child as she began to float and Sunburst then picks a purity crystal and holds it out to the citizens.

''Citizens, may I present the newest member of the crystal empire!''

Flurry's wing open wide and she lets out a fit of laughter and the citizens bein cheering as she shines brighter with the love from the citizens.

''She's beautiful!'' The orange stallion says.

''It's just so moving.'' Said the light yellow stallion wiping away a tear.

One by one the citizens got down on one knee and bowed letting their light and love shine though out the empire, Sunburst placed the purity crystal on the ground and let it absorb the energy then rushed to the crystal heart where the others and to his surprise Celestia were struggling to keep it together, Sunburst quickly placed the purity crystal on the heart and it was slowly absorbed into it before they knew it the crystal heart was able to repair itself and let out a wave of magic transforming the ponies appearance and making their coats shine like actual crystals and driving back the cold.

''Wow.'' Vick says looking at the scene.

''I know right.'' Tyler says.

''I must admit, this place gets more and more interesting.'' Johnny says with his arms crossed. ''Come on guys, lets go see the princess.''

''You know for a pony who isn't great at magic, you did pretty well.'' Starlight says to sunburst.

''Indeed. I'm glad you've found a way to share your unique gift Sunburst, you may be more of a wizard than you think.'' Celestia says with a warm smile.

''Hey Celestia?''

Everyone look to see Johnny, Tyler and Vick enter the room.

''Other than a few setbacks I'd say this went pretty well. Ish.'' Johnny says walking up to them. As they got closer Sunburst notice that the crystal heart was pulsating, before he could say something the crystal heart shot out a blast of magic that was sent hurling towards the mercs, Johnny, Tyler and Vick couldn't react in time as the beam hit all three of them.

''AHH!'' All three mercs screamed as the magic coursed through their bodies making them pass out.

(Location: The Void)

''*Groan* What the hell.'' Johnny said getting up. Johnny look around and sees nothing but white.

''Uuh.'' A voice to his right gets his attention.

''Tyler?'' Johnny called getting his attention.

''J? What the hell is going on here, what happened?'' Tyler asked confused.

''I don't know but I intend to find out, wake your sister.'' He said looking around.

Tyler wakes up to the sleeping form of Vick who starting to drool a bit.

''Hey sis get up.'' He says shoving her a bit.

''Huh?'' Vick says waking up.

''Really sis get up, you're drooling.'' He says making her blush.

Vick wipes the drool from her mouth and looks around.

''Where are we?'' Vick say looking at her surroundings.

''I have no idea.'' Tyler responds.

''I have been watching you three for quite some time.'' A mysterious voice says making all three merc get on their guard, Tyler reached for his gun only to realize that his weapons were not on him, Vick also did not have her weapon on her as well and Johnny took a fighting stance and Tyler and Vick did the same.

''Who's there?!'' Johnny demanded.

''Easy there cowboy, I mean you no harm.'' The voice said trying to assure them, Tyler didn't know why but for some reason he knows that he's heard that voice somewhere, it was obviously female, that much he was sure.

''If what you say is true than show yourself.'' Johnny says cautiously.

The mysterious voice revealed itself to a cream white mare with rose a colored mane who was slightly taller than Celestia wearing a elegant white dress with a yellow trim.

''Hello I'm-''

''Lauren Faust?'' Tyler and Vick say with surprise.

''Who?'' Johnny asked.

''Lauren Faust is the creator of the my little pony show and has her own pony OC created for the fandom, she is considered as the Regal Mother of equestria.'' Tyler explained.

''I guess introductions won't be necessary.'' Faust says with a giggle. ''As I was saying I've been watching you and your family for quite some time Johnathan and I would like to thank you for saving my daughter.'' She says to him.

''What do you mean you've been watching us?'' Johnny asked with a raised brow.

''Yeah how long?'' Tyler asked her.

''Since Johnathan took you in his care Tyler and since Vick here was separated from him.'' She tells them.

''Why? What's so special about us?'' Tyler asked her.

''Yes please explain.'' Johnny asked.

Faust walked closer to Tyler and gave him a hug however this hug was different from the hugs that he'd received, for one he wasn't being smothered by her chest to the point where it was difficult to breath, this hug made him feel warm and safe.

''I'm so sorry you had to endure so much pain, heavens knows how much I wanted to help and take you away from that horrible excuse for a father, or save you from those gang members.'' Faust says as tears escaped from her eyes. ''But I was glad to see that your brother fought tooth and nail to save you.'' She says looking to Johnny.

''So why'd you bring us here?'' Johnny asked.

Faust looked at him and spoke. ''I brought you here to let you know that equestria is about to face a great danger, and my little ponies are inexperienced and haven't seen war in a thousand years, I'm asking- no I beg you to keep my little ponies safe during these times of strife.'' She asked walking up to him.

Johnny was a little caught off guard when she had mentioned that the ponies had not seen war in a thousand years but then less surprised to hear that they were about to face a threat the they couldn't defend against.

''What is this threat?'' Vick asked her.

''I do not know, but I am certain that equestria will not survive if they were to face it now.'' Faust tells them.

Johnny looked unsure and the others a little worried about what could be threatening a happy land like equestria.

''Alright. We'll help, after all it's our job to protect those who can't protect themselves.'' Johnny says getting a warm smile from her.

''Thank you, I just knew I could count on you, now I would like to bestow on you three magic that should help you three one your safeguard of equestria and its ponies.'' Faust says producing three orbs of different color, one was fire red and was warm to the touch, the other was ice blue with a chilling vapor around it, and the last was a almost the same as the other blue except it have sparks of electricity around it. ''Step forward.'' She said.

The tree mercs stepped forward and stood in front of Faust.

''For Johnathan I give you control over Fire''

Johnny touched the orb and felt the magic flow into him giving him a warm feeling.

''Hmm this is. Different.'' Johnny says before his hands ignite in flames. ''Oh I am liking this.'' He says with a smirk.

''I knew you would.'' Faust says then looks to Tyler. ''Tyler I give you the power of frost, please touch the orb.'' She says motioning to the blue orb in front of him.

Tyler touched the orb and let the magic flow into him, while Johnny's orb gave him a warm feeling, Tyler's felt a cool breeze wash over him. Looking at the hand he touched the orb with he saw a small coat of ice covering it. ''This is so cool! No pun intended.'' He says getting a giggle from Faust.

''And finally for young Victoria, I give you the power of sparks. Place your hand on the orb.'' She says to Vick.

Vick placed her hand on the orb, she felt the magic flow through her and had a tingling sensation in her back and when it was done she saw sparks of electricity coming off of her hands.

''I'm like Raiden from Mortal Kombat.'' Vick said looking at her hand.

''I would also like to let you three know that there will be other humans that will help you safeguard equestria, you should be aware that three of them have arrived in the crystal empire along with some sort of vehicle.'' She tells them.

''Who are they?'' Johnny asked her.

''I do not know, all I know is that they are from a place called Moss-cow.'' She says mispronouncing the name.

''I think you mean Moscow, and that's in Russia so that means we have Russians that will be fighting with us, interesting.'' Johnny says rubbing his chin. ''Did they have anything with them?'' He asked.

''Yes they did, they appear to be warriors like you and your family.'' She explains, Johnny and the others start to fade but not before Faust tells them one last thing. ''Before you go, take my advice.'' She says to them.

''What would that be?'' Tyler asked her.

''Find yourselves some special someponies.'' She said Tyler and Vick blush while Johnny had a unamused look. ''Especially you Tyler, those fillies you hang out with have their eyes set on you!'' She finishes making Tyler blush deeper.

(Crystal empire)

Everyone was gathered around the three mercs with a look of worry and Riley was really sad that they weren't moving making him let out a sad whine.

''It's going to be ok Riley.'' Fluttershy says rubbing his head.

''Do you think they'll be alright princess?'' Starlight asked Celestia while looking at Tyler with a worried look.

''I'm not sure Starlight, I didn't know that the crystal heart would do something like this.'' Celestia said.

''Look they're waking up!'' Rainbow says.

The three mercs woke up with Tyler giving a groan.

''Anybody get the number of that truck that hit me?'' Tyler says rubbing his head.

''Ow my head.'' Vick said rubbing her head as well.

Johnny just sat up and kept his eyes closed.

''How long were we out?'' He asked.

''About five minutes why?'' Twilight asked.

''Tyler you tell her.'' Johnny says as Shinning helped him up and Riley rushing up to him.

''Sure why not.'' Tyler said with sarcasm.

''Young Tyler what is the captain talking about?'' Luna asked confused.

''We met Faust, as in Faust the all mother of equestria.'' Tyler says making the whole rooms jaw drop.

''YOU MET MOTHER?!'' Both Celestia and Luna screamed.

''Yes and she said that there is a danger that threatens all of equestria and us along with a few other humans were to safeguard equestria and its ponies since they are inexperienced and haven't seen war in a thousand years.'' Tyler explains getting looks of worry from others while Rainbow looked a bit cocky.

''What's this big threat to equestria? I'm sure we will kick its flank and send it packing!'' She says with a smug smile prompting Johnny to roll his eyes.

''Rainbow those times you girls had the elements, this time you girls don't and to top it all off you girls have zero to no combat experience besides Twilight who fought off Tirek single handedly, but that's because she had the alicorn magic of all three princesses and even then she was unable to defeat him because he used you girls as bargaining chips and forced her to surrender.'' Vick pointed out.

''I didn't want to say this because I know it's mean, but ponies are a pretty weak race.'' Tyler says closing his eye preparing for the yelling.

''HEY!!'' Everypony in the room yelled offended by his comment.

''Look I'm sorry but it's the truth, ponies are too heavily reliant on magic to the point to where you're using it for everyday things and for other things that don't require magic at all.'' Tyler states. ''Look I'm not going to be a hypocrite because on top of meeting Faust she also gave us magic that allows us to control different elements. show them Johnny.'' He asked.

''Why do I have to?'' Johnny asked rubbing the back of his head.

''Look just do it so they don't we're lying💢.'' Tyler said slightly annoyed.

''Fine.'' Johnny said then igniting his hands in flames.

Everyone was in shock that Johnny's hands were on fire and not being harmed at all by it.

''So awesome.'' Rainbow said with awe.

''That's amazing! Elemental magic gifted by the all mother herself, what does it feel like?'' Twilight says holding a quill and parchment.

''What can you do Ty?'' Pinkie asked.

''Oh um I can control ice.'' Tyler said making Pinkie get excited.

''Show us, show us!'' Pinkie Shouted while bouncing.

Okay, okay.'' Tyler said then concentrating on trying to use his new abilities but his efforts proved fruitless. ''Ok this is a lot harder than I thought.'' Tyler tried focusing the frost magic into his hand but only managed to make a few ice cubes to appear.

''That's it?'' Rainbow asked.

''Hey I've never had magic before alright!'' Tyler said annoyed.

''What can Vick do?'' Twilight asked.

''I can use electricity.'' Vick says with a smile.

''Let us see.'' Luna asked.

''Umm I'm not sure I can.'' Vick looking unsure while rubbing her left arm.

''Just try you best.'' Celestia says in a motherly tone.

''O-Okay.'' Vick says trying to use her magic. As she focused her magic she began to feel a faint tingling sensation in her back, wasting no time she then focused what little magic she gathered into her hands resulting in small sparks of electricity to appear around her hands.

''Fascinating!'' Twilight says writing down notes.

''Princess!!'' A voice called. Everyone in the room looked and saw a crystal guard Pegasus entering the room.

''What happened guard, what's going on?'' Cadence asked.

''There's some sort of giant metal contraption moving toward the castle!'' The guard states.

''Oh that's what we forgot!'' Tyler says surprising the ponies.

(T-90 crew)

The crew of the T-90 were driving at a steady pace toward the castle to see if they could get some help from the ruling body as to where they are, they were completely shocked when they saw the residents of the strange city they were in and it raised many questions.

''Just a little further men.'' Dimitri says looking at the screen for the fire controls.

''Commander I have a large group of those strange locals coming towards us, some are geared up in some type of medieval armor, brandishing shields, swords, and bows, some are flying and others are running.'' Boris said looking through the spotter scope.

''Anything else?'' Dimitri asked.

''Yes commander, some of those strange individuals have horns on their heads, but at least four of them have both horns and wing and three of them are wearing tiaras and one of them appears to be holding an infant.'' Boris says to Dimitri. ''Wait I see something else... It can't be.'' Boris says in disbelief.

''What is it SSgt Medvedev?'' Dimitri Asked his crew mate.

''It's. It's the Punisher squad sir!'' Boris says not believing what he's seeing.

''What that's impossible, the Punisher squad disappeared months ago.'' Dimitri says moving from the gunner seat. ''let me see.'' He says getting on the spotter scope. ''I don't believe it.'' Dimitri said looking at the trademark helmets that they were known for.

(Johnny and the others)

''*Whistles* Haven't seen one of those in a while.'' Johnny says looking at the tank from behind cover.

''What is that thing?'' Twilight asked.

''That my purple colored friend is called a T-90 battle tank.'' Tyler says having his smg trained on the tank.

''What are we waiting for lets go talk to them!'' Twilight says eagerly only to be stopped by Tyler.

''Not so fast Twilight, these guys are trained military personal and they're in a military vehicle that can pretty much demolish almost half the city.'' Tyler says making everyones eyes go wide.

''Then how are we going to handle this?'' Twilight asked.

Johnny looked through his helmets optical zoom function and looked at the T-90 as it stopped and the hatch opened.

''Look alive people!'' Johnny said as everyone tensed up.

''What's happening?'' Cadence asked holding her daughter with Shinning right next to her.

''Do you honestly think it a good idea to have your newborn out in a place that could potentially become a battleground?'' Johnny said looking to Cadence.

''I didn't want to leave her behind.'' She said in defense.

''*Sigh* Look just go back to the castle and take your husband with you, no sense in having every national leader in a potential battlefield, we will fill you guys in on what happens plus I would feel a lot better if an infant wasn't in direct danger.'' Johnny says trying to convince them.

''Fine but after you get back I want to talk to you about how you saved the princess.'' Shinning said teleporting with both Cadence and the baby back to the castle.

''We'd like to hear that too, what you did was awesome!'' Rainbow said looking to him.

Looking back to the tank Johnny saw a soldier coming out with his hands up and started walking toward them slowly.

''I'm going in, you guys stay behind and keep me covered.'' Johnny said hopping over cover and walks out to meet the Russian soldier.

''I'm going with you.'' Twilight says joining his side.

''Twilight these guys obviously don't speak the same language you and I do so it's going to be hard for you to understand what we're saying.'' Johnny tells her.

''But you can probably interpret for me can you?'' She asked with a small smile.

''Fine but stay behind be and I want you to grab my arm when I say.'' He said getting a confused look from Twilight.

''Grab your arm, why?'' Twilight asked confused.

''Don't question it Twilight just be ready to grab my arm in case something happens okay.'' He tells her.

''Okay?'' Twilight said sounding unsure but agreed anyway.

The two came to a complete stop as both of them came face to face with the Russian.

''Приветствую солдата, я капитан Вольф. Думаю, у вас есть вопросы? (Greetings soldier I'm captain Wolf Fang. I'm guessing you have questions?) Johnny asked in fluent Russian.

''Что происходит? Что это за место? (What's going on? What is this place?)'' The Russian soldier asked.

''Я объясню в замке, позволяю вам и вашей команде войти, чтобы я мог расспрашивать вас. (I'll explain in the castle, lets get you and your crew inside so I can debrief you.) Johnny tells him.

The Russian stops before he asks him a question just to make sure that the captain was who he said he was.

''How do I know you are who you say you are?'' The soldier asked in perfect English surprising both Johnny and Twilight.

''You can speak equish?'' Twilight asked.

The Russian looked at her and spoke. ''I speak perfect English strange one.''

''Hey I'm not strange!'' Twilight spoke with offence.

''Give him a break Twilight he's never seen anything like you before.'' Johnny told her as she pouted.

''It was still rude.'' Twilight muttered.

''You still haven't answered my question, how do I know you are who you say you are 'captain'.'' The Russian said cautiously.

''*Sigh Fine, what do you want me to say that will convince you?'' Johnny says in a tired tone.

''What was the name of the generals daughter that was rescued from Chernobyl?'' The Russian asked him.

''Trick question, it wasn't the generals daughter that was in Chernobyl, it was his niece Anfisa and her two friends, one male, one female.'' Johnny says answering his question.

The Russian relaxed after confirming the captains identity and followed him with his crew following them in the tank, everyone was amazed by the sheer size of the tank with Twilight asking questions about it nonstop. Arriving at the castle the Russian ordered his crew members to shut down the tank and step out to enter the castle. As the others stepped out everyone could see them clearly, Rarity was disturbed by the color of their uniforms and the way their uniforms looked in general, Fluttershy was shy as usual, Rainbow was sizing them up from a distance, Pinkie was thinking up a welcome to equestria party, AJ was watching them in case they tried anything. Entering the throne room the group was met by Shinning armor and Cadence who was holding Flurry in her arms.

''I see the situation has been handled?'' Shinning asked the captain.

Johnny just looked at Shinning with a neutral expression on his face and spoke. ''So I guess you'll be wanting to talk to me about my little rescue?'' He said deactivating his helmet.

''Yes and I believe the princess Celestia and princess Luna will want to hear this too.'' Shinning said getting their attention.

''Yes we would like to hear how you rescued my sister from falling to her doom captain.'' Luna said looking to the captain.

''As do I, I would like to hear how you saved me captain.'' Celestia said.

''Fine but don't expect much a an explanation.'' Johnny said following them to a separate room.

Johnny was the first to enter the room it was almost similar to a waiting room but with marble columns and a few plants and a large table in the middle.

''So you mind explaining to me how you were able to teleport and why I didn't sense any magic when it happened?'' Shinning armor asked him.

''I simply dematerialize all of the particles in my body and reassembled them in the location in front of where the princess was falling so I can catch her.'' Johnny tells them getting confused looks from them.

''That's not how magic works.'' Shinning said looking at the captain.

''I must agree with Shinning Armor captain, that is not how magic works at all.'' Luna says to him while Celestia just listens.

''It's not magic it's science.'' Johnny clarifies. ''How would you guys explain how teleporting works?'' He asked them.

''For magic users like unicorn and alicorns we gather magic in our horns, but instead focusing the magic into our hands like most spells, we keep the magic stored in our horns and focus on a specific location we want to go and let our magic take us there.'' Celestia explained to him.

''Interesting, do you think you can demonstrate for me?'' Johnny asked.

''Demonstrate? You saw me teleport my wife and foal with me to the castle.'' Shinning said with confusion.

''Not really I wasn't paying attention, I was more focused on the Russian war machine pointing its 125mm cannon at us.'' Johnny says getting their eye to go wide.

Well it's a good thing they had no ill intentions.'' Celestia said sounding slightly nervous.

''Indeed, sister I'll be demonstrating the teleportation spell for the captain.'' Luna tell her sister, she prepares the spell by collecting magic in her horn, as soon as she collected enough magic for a short distance teleport she used the spell and teleported in a flash of light across the table and next to Johnny. ''Impressed captain?'' She asked.

Johnny looked at the princess for a short while before he gave his answer. ''If you want my honest opinion, it is impressive that your kind can use a teleporting ability but it's not something that I would use on a stealth mission due to the flash of light that it gives off when you use it and it also lets out a distinct pop sound as well.'' He tells them.

''Then why don't show us how yours works then!'' Luna asked him sounding miffed.

''Very well.'' Johnny says focusing on the area behind Shinning and Celastia.

*WOOSH*

Johnny disappeared and reappeared right behind them startling both of them.

''What do you think?'' He asked them.

''That is impressive captain and very lowkey, it must come in handy on your missions with Tyler.'' Celestia says.

''He doesn't know I can do that.''

''He doesn't?'' Celestia asked.

''Yes and I plan to keep it that way.'' He tells them.

''Why does your brother not know about your teleporting ability?'' Luna asked.

''Are you hiding anything else from us or your family?'' Shinning asked him.

''A few, but that information is classified.'' Johnny tells him.

''What if I ordered you.'' Shinning tells Johnny who expression remains unchanged.

''News flash prince Charming, I don't take orders from you.'' Johnny tells him getting a miffed look from Shinning and a amused look from both princesses. ''Now if you'll excuse me I have some fellow soldiers to greet.'' And with that Johnny walked out of the room and heading straight for the throne room.

''What is he hiding?'' Shinning asked out loud.

''Leave it be Shinning Armor, there are some things best left alone.'' Celestia said getting up to go to the throne room.

Johnny entered the throne room and was greeted with the sound of Twilight asking the Russian question after question with his face expressing that the constant questioning the worst form of torture even for a soldier like him.

''Okay Twilight now would be a good time to stop interrogating the Russian.'' Johnny said getting the rooms attention.

''Oh Johnny you're back, what did you and my brother discuss?'' Twilight asked.

''Oh nothing important, now I need to have a talk with our Russian friends here.'' Johnny says pulling the Russian aside.

(Time skip 7hrs)

After having a talk with the Russian tank crew Johnny found out their names were Dimitri, who served in the Russian military when it was still called the Soviet Union until its fall nineteen years ago but continued to serve his country which Johnny found a high amount of respect for and then there was Boris and Anton, Dimitri's crewmates with Boris having the rank SSgt and Anton was a Pvt, Johnny asked them in Russian what their reason for joining the military was and their reasons for joining was something he didn't expect, for Boris he joined so he can be independent and to get away from his drug addict father but Anton's reason was sad, Anton was an orphan most of his life and he was always taken advantaged of by the other kids in the orphanage and spent most of his time learning what he could until he was of age and left to join the military after Johnny heard their stories he told them how what they're doing is commendable and that they should be proud, after all was said and done Johnny asked if they would consider joining the Punisher squad, the Russians weren't so sure about the offer but after explaining the unknown but dangerous threat that was come to this peaceful land they were more the happy to help, Anton not so much but Dimitri and Boris were glad that they would do what they were trained to do.

Johnny was starting up the Black Hawk while Vick stayed behind to watch after Dimitri and his crew mates till Johnny returned with some Chinooks to airlift the T-90 back to base.

(Above ponyville)

Johnny was flying right above ponyville while Tyler wore a look of concentration.

''What's on your mind Tyler?'' Johnny asked snapping Tyler from his thoughts.

''Oh nothing J I'm just going over what Faust said about my friends having their eyes on me.'' Tyler replied with a small blush present on his face.

Johnny looked at his brother for a few seconds and gave his opinion. ''Look if that's want you want then I say go for it.'' He tells him.

''You know what you're right, I think it's time I find something that will make me happy!'' Tyler says with determination. ''After this I will ask them out on a date.'' He says.

''That's the spirit Ty!.... Wait, what do you mean by them?'' Johnny was in for an explanation on how relationships work in equestria.

Just so I can distinguish Johnny's teleport from the ponies I put this video so you can get a better picture of how his is.

MERRY CHISTMAS EVERYPONY!! Or happy new year.

Sorry this was late, it was supposed to be up on new years but i fell asleep at my laptop.
