Saturday, 12:00 AM
I woke up inside of a white room, and I didn't know why. I think I'm still asleep, but that doesn't matter now, I need to find a way to get through this. The white then faded into a sandy color, and the sound of jets and explosions could be heard.
"Sergeant! We gotta move! Get your ass on board!" I then looked around in my surroundings. I was in the Middle East, this happened about ten years ago, before Jack and all of them died. This WAS the mission right before they died, I can't believe it.
"Captain, what do we do now?" I asked, I swore I remember his voice so clearly.
"You, need to wake up. Equestria needs you, and you're on your damn bed asleep! Listen to me soldier, you go out there and you rescue Rainbow and her friends." He poked me hard in the chest. I then woke up, it was about nine in the morning. I jumped out of bed and I put on my ODST armor, ain't nobody got time to be wasting. Shining Armor rushed into my room, and he told me what was happening.
"Sir, we've got a problem... Ponyville's been attacked by Dragons, and your wife and friends have been foalnapped. The enemy is holding them for ransom, and we need your team to get them out." I then loaded a new magazine with Armor Piercing rounds into my Desert Eagle. I also took out another gun, it was personally one of my favorites, the HK416 Assault Rifle, chambered with Armor Piercing rounds.
"Alright, Captain. Let's go fuck up a dragon's nest." I slung the HK over my back, and loaded a bullet into my Desert Eagle's chamber.
"Before we get to Ponyville, we may need to prepare. Do you have any contacts you may want to call?" I nodded, I had three people I knew back a boot camp. They were assigned to Delta Team 2, they were second best compared to Delta Team 1, but they were still my friends. These guys were way younger than me, they're at least Helena's age by now. Their names were Christian and Phoenix Williams, and Blake Underwood. In the Delta Force back in the U.S. we were rivals, usually with us barely managing to come out on top with the records.
"Let me use that inter-dimensional teleportation spell really quick, and I'll be right back." I ran out into another car of the train, and teleported the three here. They were all dusty and covered with grime and muck, my nostrils instinctlively crinkled under the smell.
"Hey guys, long time no see." I said, they all looked at me in surprised, they didn't see me as an Alicorn luckily. I then helped them up and into the washroom car, where they all bathed and looked oh so much better.
"Now Lieutenant, documents say that your team went KIA. You're supposed to be dead." Phoenix said, I chuckled as I took a bite of a ration.
"Don't believe everything you are told. And that's Commander to you, we're in a whole new country." Their jaws dropped to the floor.
"Alright, we're dealing with dragons here. I have the best equipment here I can supply you with, and if we make it out alive, I'll buy you guys a drink." They all smiled, I then opened a secret compartment in one of the cars, it had a suit integrator, and a weapons cache. I have a lot of time on my hands, so that's why there was one of these in the train, just for gun and suit emergencies. They all walked through the suit integrator, in which it looked like a emancipation grill. What it does is that when you walk through it, it materializes the perfect armor of your choice, and it so happens this one supplies ODST armor. It's the best thing we have without going overboard with Spartan armor.
"Alright, now that we got you suited and armed, we need to inform you of what's going down. Captain, do you mind bringing in the briefing files?" He came in with the files, and we both told them what to shoot and what not to, the list of hostages to rescue, and the priority. The main priority was to rescue the hostages, and then get rid of whatever dragons remain.
"Wait, you live in Ponyville, with a pony wife, and pony friends and family?" They started to laugh their ass off, but I was quick with comebacks.
"Yeah, and I'm that guy who whooped your ass a few years back, and can probably do it again. Anything else?" That shut them up, they shook their heads no.
"Good, now you know the music, time to dance." I jumped out of the train, and everything was on fire. Even my own house, and they should be keeping captives down in the town square. We were in broad daylight, so we were going to have to use adaptive camouflage to get in close for the kill. These guys may have been trained, but not with the mixed technology I have gathered from other dimensions, in the end I'm pretty sure they know what they're doing.
I quickly exterminated one of the dragons with a swift knife to the neck, and hid the body. I got close to the other one and I snapped its neck. Once I ordered a triple takedown, all of the guards were down, but I wasn't done here. Dragons wouldn't do this for shits and giggles, they have to have a reason for doing this.
"Guys! I'm so glad you're safe! You aren't hurt are you?" I kneeled down and hugged Rainbow, her friends thought it was a group hug so they joined in too.
"I thought they got you already, you didn't leave a letter or a message or anything when you were gone overnight." Rainbow was in tears.
"I'm so sorry I didn't call you or anything, I'll make it up to you somehow, just not now. I have some dragons to fuck up." I pulled the charging handle on my HK416, and went into the battlefield along with my temporary crew.
"Alright, once we're done here, I can return you home. Also, aim for the belly if you can. FMJ's can only go through so much." I then pulled a M67 Frag and threw it into the field. The dragons didn't expect it at all, but since there was nothing really going on I'll skip ahead.
"Wow Drew! You sure taught those dragons a lesson!" Pinkie exclaimed, I chuckled. There was an explosion in the background but I didn't even look at it, it was too bright for me to see it. I guess I'm going to have to rebuild Ponyville for the second time, with the help of my magic.
"Good going cousin, you handled the situation quite well." Celestia appeared! All of our friends bowed, except for me because I forgot to. The bad thing is that all the civilians were watching, and they guessed correctly.
"Drew, you aren't a normal Alicorn are you?" Lyra asked, this was a bit weird for me, but I couldn't change the subject.
"Lyra, I was never a normal Alicorn, or human for that matter. It happens that I'm related to Celestia and her sister. Not to mention Cadence and ughh... Blueblood." I cringed when I said Blueblood's name, because he's the shit I don't like. The bad thing is that my secret's out, which was bad, and the crowd bowed, which was... bad.
"I think it's about time we get the fuck outta here!" I teleported into my own home, in which it was already rebuilt with the help of my magic, and Twilight. I told Delta Team 2 everything that has happened to us so far, their minds were blown out of all the things that has happened to us. Surprisingly, we never are able to be able to do any leisure activities besides clubbing, and hopefully tonight I can treat my friends to dinner at our favorite place in town. I think by the day is over the town should be fixed, and dead corpses should've been removed by the royal guard hours ago.
"Oh, I forgot! We too a captive, now it's time to interrogate..." I cracked my knuckles. I walked into the Ponyville Police Department interrogation room, and got started.
"Now, do you care to tell us why you attacked this defenseless town?" He gruffed at me, but I used that Phoenix Wright style of interrogation. I slammed my hands on the table, and looked at him with that stare.
"Do I need to slap a bitch?! Or will you be able to talk?! Why did you attack this town?!" He flinched, good, that means he's afraid. Blake was a bit impatient with my tactics of intimidation, so he was rushing me the whole time.
"Drew, you can hurry it up any day now."
"Don't rush me woman! Jeez, you're even worse than Pinkie Pie!" I spat back at him, I looked back to the dragon and we began talking again. He said that he was hired by the Dragon Queen to attack Ponyville, something about a rare metal being stored here. I walked out of the interrogation room, and everyone was outside waiting for me to come out. I told them why they had attacked Ponyville, and I also forgot to do something.
"Oh yeah! Guys! This is Delta Team 2, these guys were our rivals way back when." Helena remembered these guys, and I think The Crew got along just fine with them. I then walked back to the house, I always walk for some reason, teleporting is too OP for me, I only use it when I need to get somewhere fast.
Christian, Phoenix, and Blake all said their introductions and goodbyes, because I pulled them here against their own will. They didn't even want to be here in the first place, so I teleported them back home.
"Call us if you need to Drew, we'll be waiting." Christian said, I waved him off and pushed him through, as for the others they followed him in.
"Alright, so what now?" Nick asked, I shrugged and went up to my room. Today was very tiring, and I decided to put off the dinner thing until tomorrow. I took off my ODST Suit and put on my night clothes, I plopped down into bed and started snoring. I woke up again in that white room, with my old squad still there.
"You did good today soldier, good work." Jack put his hand on my shoulder, I didn't think that these were the real guys, but I wasn't so sure. Maybe they were contacting me from the dead, or they're just figments of my imagination. Anyways, they vanished, and I was left on the streets of Austin, Texas, my home town.
