Prince Shining Armor looked down at his troops being retrained with advice from one of the four humans he encountered  a month ago. November 1st they disappeared, today was November 29th. He thought of how ruthless and skilled the four humans were and how they out did every single one of his soldiers. Well except for Andy. There was something seriously wrong with him. He was an unholy existence that were creatures in the category of Pinkie Pie. He remembered back at a ceremony where the four humans were awarded medals for their valiant efforts to the changeling war. Ever since the humans came to Equestria and the ceremony, he tried improving his troops. He also remembered how effective a pony in combat was when he or she tried fighting bipedal like the humans. One of the night guards of the Royal Guard, Night Watch, one of the best hoof to hoof fighters, was beaten by one of the humans, Tran. Worst of all, he remembered the scars emblazoned on his chest. ‘So young yet so scarred.' He remember how Tran gave him advice on how terrible their troops were and ways to improve them. He remembered back to when he gave that advice.

At The Medal Ceremony One Month One Week Ago

Shining Armor talked to one of the humans, Nick, about the effectiveness of heavily armed soldiers similar to the armor of the changelings. After being interrupted by Tran, he resumed to finish talking with Nick. About an hour later, he went to Tran and started talking to him. Shining Armored remembered that talk down to the last word.

"Hello Tran", he said.

"Hello Shining Armor. What may I ask what do you need my acquaintance for?", Tran replied.

"When can you train some of our troops?"

"I will after my friends and I have settled in Equestria. There is one thing I can tell you that will get your troops to be more effective in open combat. One time I went to Canterlot and watched one training session of your Royal guard, both branches. Your guards are trained to fight to incapacitate. Your guards need to be trained to kill. Also, another time I went to Canterlot and to a fighting match that took place with the night guard. One of the best fighters, Night Watch, was fighting biped. Do you notice how I fight biped, even as an alicorn? Fighting as a biped allows free usage of limbs to fight or wield weapons instead of walking."

Back In Canterlot And The Present Time

Shining Armor left the training grounds and walked to Celestia. Once he made it to the throne room, he took a light bow, unlike normal bows that normal people would have, because he was a prince. “Princess Celestia, how were the negotiations with the griffons?"

"It went terrible. They don't believe that the humans aren't in Equestria. They still demand that we hand over the humans to jail them. They also want the schematics to the T-1 crossbow. They also want directions to steel. The humans’ weapons are also desired by them."

"Those griffons never learn but we can't afford another long term war. Are they still going to sending troops to invade Equestria?"

"Yes. They have launched eight battles so far. They have progressed terribly with the T-1 in our guard's hands."

"We have to end this war. We are barely recovering from the war with the changelings."

"What are we going to do with the griffons?"

"I don't know. Our troops need more than three units to just take down one griffon warrior. We need-", Shining Armor started before a messenger walked inside and whispered into his ear.

"What is it?”, asked Celestia.

"The griffon ambassadors are here and they are demanding an audience with you two and the elements in five hours."

"Then send a sky chariot to escort the elements from Ponyville."

Five Hours Later

The two goddess princesses, the mane six, and several griffons walked into a throne room. Inside the throne room was a large table. The mane six sat down together at one part of a table. The griffon diplomat had sixteen armed soldiers guarding them and only the diplomat sat down. The princesses sat at the front of the table together. At the other end of the table was Shining Armor and Cadance. At the sides of the table were six armed royal solar guards.

"Where is the diplomat?", asked Cadance.

"Our diplomat, Gilda was busy so I had to fill in her roll", said the griffon sitting.

"And who might you be?", asked Cadance.

"Corporal Beak."

"Exactly what do you want with negotiating with us? Every time you call for us, you just demand that you release the humans and to relinquish our technology that were given to us", said Shining Armor.

"It is more than that", said Beak. “NOW!!!" With that yell, eight of the griffons took out their weapons and rushed forward to grab Shining Armor, Cadance, and the EOHs as hostages. The other eight guards took out crossbows and aimed it at anyone they thought would cause trouble, which at the time were the guards. “Either you relinquish them or they die."

"We told you, the Nightmare killed them", said Celestia.

"Wrong answer." Corporal Beak took out a dagger and walked over to Cadance. “We don't want anything to happen to your beloved niece and ruler of the Crystal Empire? Where are they?"

"Right here", an unfamiliar voice said. Everyone turned and faced seven large figures that were standing at the entrance of the door way. These figures weren't technicolored like everything else and each one of them were nearly six feet tall. What also raised eyebrows was the fact that they were biped and heavily clothed.

The seven figures raised long black boxy objects that had barrels sticking out of them. Loud booms sounded in the throne room as the griffons were being slaughtered. In a span of two seconds, all but one of the griffons died, corporal Beak. The lone living griffon stood there, still with a dagger in his claws as he stared at the bodies of his dead soldier.

"Tell the griffons that The Cannibal and his friends are back. More importantly, tell your superiors there's more of them now", said a familiar voice. The griffon was lifted in teh air without a magical aura and was thrown through a stain glass window that depicted a picture of four humans and their weapons. Once thrown through the window, the griffon started to fly away.

One of the figures raised a long wooded stocked weapon with a large black round object mounted on the top off it. This was what he raised.

One of the figures that was dressed up in a large white robe went up to him and lowered the barrel of the weapon. “Let him be Logan. We need someone to tell the griffons we are back."

Three of the figures that were in the group of seven stared at the ponies with faces of awe.

"Tran? Ike? Nick? Andy?", asked Celestia.

"Yes? We're back", Tran said in reply.

Back To Tran's Point Of View

"Yes? We're back", Tran said in reply. “One comment. Why is that every time that we go to Canterlot with our entire group, something happens and we have to fix it."

"May I ask who those three are?" Celestia pointed at three of my friends.

"I'm Logan."

"Austin."

"Alex."

From what I remembered about Alex, Austin, and Logan, the three of them were brony friends of mine. Knowing Alex, he was probably going super anime fan boy in his mind upon the sight of the mane six, Celestia, Luna, Cadance, and Shining Armor.

"Your friends?", asked Celestia.

"Yes. Some of my friends."

Alex was the average sized person with a slightly higher than average height and he had a machete, fire axe, hunting knife, and a 9mm Walther P88 pistol. Logan was another average sized person with a normal height and he had a switchblade, crowbar, SPAS-12 shotgun, a double barreled .44 derringer, and a .308 bolt action rifle. Austin was slightly larger than average size with a normal height and he had a hatchet, a kabar, a single shot 12 gauge shotgun, and a .223 mini M-14. Ike was still like himself except he was covered in blood and he had a few weapons only I would know about other than him. Andy was still himself except he had a large wooden hammer strapped to his belt. Nick looked the same except his fist were covered in large metallic gloves only I would know about other than him.

"Tran, can I ask you something?", Celestia asked.

"What?"

"Why are you wearing your hood? You usually don't wear it."

"I was hoping to show you this earlier."

"What earlier?", asked Celestia.

"What can be so bad about you wearing your hood?", asked Logan.

"Brother, just show us."

"Tran, what is it?"

I stepped out of the group of my friends and went into an area that would make the front side of my body visible to my friends and the ponies. I slowly lowered the hood off of my head and revealed what I was hiding. My eyes. Everyone stared at my face for a while until Pinkie Pie asked, “Why are your eyes all black and stuff? Why aren't they different in color in layer like ours? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?" It was true. My entire eye was completely pitch black, cornea, pupil, iris, retina, and every other part of the eye.

"I will answer why my eyes are like this later. First we must talk."

"You think?!?", yelled out everypony in the room except for the guards.

"What happened with the Nightmare when he blasted you with that spell?", asked Twilight. “We saw you die."

"That spell he blasted us with, didn't kill us or harm us. It blasted us into other dimensions, which also confirmed the multiverse theory", I said.

"Multiverse theory?"

"A theory that multiple universes exist. Every single one of these universes have at least one different factor in each one of them. An example could be that there could be an exact copy of a universe except that every coin flip that ever happened had the opposite results than that of the universe it copied."

"Tran. Seriously, why are your eyes pitch black?", asked Rainbow Dash. “It’s creeping me out a bit."

"I'll tell you later. There is one thing I want to do first."

"What is it?"

"Scootaloo." *SNAP* I teleported the seventeen of us to Ponyville and the lot of us landed outside of the school house. I looked into the classroom. It was empty. “Don’t the kids have school today?"

"Yes but they are on a field trip today", said Rarity.

"To where?"

"They went to the outer outskirts of Ponyville."

"Isn't that subjective?"

"They're on a field trip, learning about gems and their importance to society."

"How can gems be important, other than decorations and dragon food?"

"WHAT!?!?! Gems can be used for tools and some weapons", said Rarity.

"Eh. Look at me. No gems used and doing better than most of your nation. Let’s find the others, some of the girls would be happy to see me."

"I'll lead you. I usually go there to find jewels", Rarity said.

-X-X-X-

The seventeen of us walked to the fields where Rarity usually went gem hunting.

"Tran, can I ask you a question?", asked Twilight.

"You just did", I replied.

"Can I ask you another question?", she asked again.

"You just did again", I replied again.

"Can I ask you two questions?"

"Sure.

"How did you perform that teleportation spell?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, you teleported the seventeen of us to Ponyville. That would have been incredibly difficult and the amount of magic it would have taken would have made you magically sterile and killed you."

"Well you see, when Celestia made us alicorns-"

"YOU BECAME PONIES?!?!?", yelled out my three new additions to our group, cutting me off.

"Yes. Before you ask, I can make you ponies too. Like I said, when Celestia made us alicorns, our skeletal structures entirely became the same material as horns because our bodies were not used to magic nor becoming an alicorn nor that material in general, causing the whole horn material bone thing. This horn materialed skeletal allows more magic to be pulled from the surrounding area because our entire skeletal structure is pulling magic instead of a tiny nub like a normal unicorn or alicorn horns. This is also why ponies with bigger horns can use more magic, like how Shining Armor is one of the only beings capable of using his signature shield spell. This also accounts for why we became alicorns. Alicorns are alicorns because they have magic from all species of ponies. The horn materialed skeletal structure pulled enough magic in the ponification process to turn us into alicorn. Before you three ask, the four of us are alicorns in pony form."

"Tran, how do you know this if you have only been in Equestria for less than a month and when you have been missing for a month?", asked Celestia.

"I KNOW EVERYTHING!!!"

"AAAAAAAUUUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!! WE FORGOT ABOUT THAT!!!!", yelled everypony except for Shining Armor.

"Why do you always say that?!?", everypony except for Shining Armor shouted.

"Wait, I hear something", I said.

"I don't hear anything. All I hear is us", said Rainbow Dash.

I walked over to a hole in the ground and stood there. The hole was about four five feet wide and it's deepness was unknown due to darkness hiding it's true depth.

"Tran, be careful, those awful diamond dogs could get you", said Rarity.

I stood there and then jumped in. Everyone stared at the deep, dark hole that I jumped in. Spooking everyone looking into the hole, I jumped back out holding a cartoony sized dark pinkish bow.

"Dats-", Applejack started.

"Applebloom’s", I said cutting Applejack off. I jumped back into the hole with my M4a1 out. My friends also jumped into the hole but instead of directly jumping down, they slid down the hole. I landed on the ground and my friends crashed shortly after.

"I can't see shit in here", said Alex.

"Don't you guys have flashlights?", I asked. No reply. “Of course. How much ammo do you three have?"

"28 9mm rounds left", said Alex.

"14 shells, 7 .44 rounds, and 9 .308 rounds", said Logan.

"3 shells, and 19 .223 rounds left", said Austin..

"Give them some of our ammo guys", I said. Ike gave Austin his USP SOCOM. Nick gave Logan some of his .308 ammo. Andy gave Alex some spare 9mm ammo.

I took off one of my two black hawk shotgun shell holders and handed it to Logan. Then I took out several off my Glock 18 mags and gave it to Alex, who took out the bullets and reloaded them into his spare mags. Lastly, I gave Austin some of my spare 5.56X45mm ammo. “I’ll lead. I can see in the dark."

"How?", asked Ike.

"Eyes."

"What did happen to you that caused that?", asked Nick.

"You'll find out eventually."

I walked down the cave's long tunnel that we were in with my M4 raised. Unlike the others, I could see perfectly in the dark with my eyes. In fact, I could see better in the dark than in the day.

"How often does stuff like this happens?", asked Austin.

"Eh. Every once in a while. You'll get used to it", said Andy.

"Zombies then ponies and you guys. What next?", asked Logan.

"Oh yeah. One more thing guys. I know you three are new here but there are some ground rules. Logan, no making bombs even though I like explosions. Austin, there isn't any icy hot so don't try to make anything of that sort. Alex, no fire or burning anything, although I do have something like that, that you would love. Lastly, no revealing that the ponies are a TV show from our world. Got it?", I said.

"Fine", grumbled the three of them.

The next thing I know, a diamond dog comes out from a burrow underneath me and nearly makes me fall if it wasn't for my reflexes. The seven of us pointed our guns at him.

"Where are the fillies?", asked Austin. “We’ll let you go free if you let them free."

"Why don't we’s take you’s to dig for gems", replied the diamond dog.

I stared at the dog due to the extreme  stupidity of what it said. A few seconds later, I shot the dog eight times in the face. Austin looked at me for a bit before looking forward again. Austin, despite surviving and killing in the zombie apocalypse, was a pacifist at heart. He would rather keep peace than fight.

I walked through a corridor and looked around. I looked around the tunnels scanning for any other diamond dogs. Nothing happened for a few minutes until I reached one dug out area of the cave that had a door blocking it. I opened the door and looked inside. Inside room were several ponies digging with pickaxes and shovels. I looked at each of the ponies digging and started to name them in my head.

'Amethyst Star, Minuette, Cheerilee Wild fire, Pina Colada, Golden Grape, Twinkle Shine, Sparkler, Carrot Top? Why would some of them even go to this region of Ponyville?' I faced my friends and said, “Nine ponies inside, twelve dogs. Aim for the dogs." I slung my M4a1 on my shoulder as I took out a flashbang in each hand. I pulled the pins of them with my mouth and held the spoons down the safety spoons down. I gestured to Logan to open the door. The minute he opened the door, I threw the flashbangs in and unslung my M4 while kicking the door closed with my foot. I waited for the flashbang's detonations while the seven of us readied our  weapons.

*BOOM* I heard loud canine like whimpering and opened the door before rushing inside. Once inside, the seven of us shot the twelve dogs inside. From the sound of gunshots, more dogs came in to investigate, either by one of the other doorways to the room or by tunneling from under us.

"NICK BEHIND YOU!!!", I said as a diamond dog burrowed out of the ground behind him. Nick turned around and punched the dog. His hand was gloved with a weapon only i would know about. This made the dog's head physically explode. Below was what he punched the dog with(try to name what it is in the comments).

Within a span of two minutes, sixty-two diamond dogs were killed. The seven of us walked through the ponies and they cowered in fear. I slung my M4a1 over my shoulder and unsheathed my katana. I raised it high up above the ponies and the ponies started scrambling around but were stopped by their chains. I brought the katana down and sliced the chain.

"Tran, how did that sword even cut through that? That should be impossible", said Alex.

"I'll explain after I explain why my eyes are pitch black."

I walked to Cheerilee whose eyes beam in happiness upon the sight of me.

"TRAN!?!?!? How did you find us?", asked Cheerilee.

"I KNOW EVERYTHING!!! We were told about the field trip. Where the others?"

"Go through that door."

I looked at the door that Cheerilee pointed us to a large metal door that was on one end of the room. I put my ear up against the door and listened. Scuffling and whispers were heard and I tried to pick the lock. That was until Nick walked to the door and kicked it down, despite it being a giant metal door. The seven of us looked inside and Nick lifted up the door, showing four squashed diamond dogs and weapons alongside them.

"You going to have to explain how you suddenly have the strength of Superman", I said to him. Inside this room were several cages containing ponies and some more diamond dogs with weapons. They came right at us and then they stopped running three feet in front of us.

"What?", asked Alex. The six of my friends looked at me. I had my katana out and was sheathing it into the scabbard on my waist. The katana was completely sheathed with a satisfying clink.*CLINK* At the sound of this, the diamond dogs in front of us fell to the ground, bisected. “How?"

"I'll explain later", I replied.

The ponies inside of the cages, beamed with fear except for five small fillies.

"TRAN!!!", yelled out Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle.

"We thought you died", said Sweetie Belle.

"What adventures did you guys go on?", asked Scootaloo.

"Did yah find anythin interestin?", asked Applebloom.

"Did you have fun?", asked Silver Spoon.

"GET US FREE ALREADY!!!!", yelled out Diamond Tiara.

"Ask your questions later", I said. I went up to the first lock and began to pick it. Only for Nick to go up to each door and ripped off the doors to the cells. “You’re no fun. Super Nick."

"Tran. Where have you been?", asked Scootaloo who tried to tackle me down.

"I'll tell everyone later." I looked around the room and saw another door. I went to it and opened it up. Inside were maybe forty more diamond dogs. Most of them were female or children. The small amount of males that were in that room branded weapons, but they didn't rush forward to attack me. Alex walked in and raised his pistol at them, only for me to lower the pistol myself. I looked at him and he instantly knew what i was going to tell him. The two of us walked back to the other room.

"Let’s get out of here", said Austin. I walked back to the adult ponies that were in the other room with the lot of us. The lot of us, being seven of us, forty-three fillies and colts, and eight stallions and mares. The fifty-eight of us walked back to the hole where we came from. The seven of us were in front, the eight adults were directly behind us, and the children were in the back while we talked with the adults.

"How are we going to get up there?!?", asked Pina Colada.

"Have you guys ever heard of those four beings that helped Equestria win the war with the changelings?", I asked.

"How is that going to- Oh."

"Remember how one of them was named the cannibal?", I asked.

"What about it?", asked Golden Grape.

"You're talking to him", I said in reply.

"Your aren't really a cannibal right?", he asked.

"No."

"Oh thank goodness. I thought that was a lie and you guys didn't really eat meat."

"I'm not a cannibal but I do eat meat. They called me a cannibal because I ate the heads of changelings I recently killed. Any other questions? And no I won't eat any of you. I don't want to eat any ponies."

"How can you eat meat?!? Only sick creatures eat meat", said Amethyst Star.

"Amethyst, you are lucky that the kids are in the back while we talk. We have to eat meat for a reason. Our stomachs aren't like you equine creatures and our stomachs don't make protein from plants like yours."

"Did you have to cut those dogs in half in front of the young ones?", asked Minuette.

"You guys do know that I am sixteen years old right?", I said in reply. At the sound of this, the adults stopped moving, except for Cheerilee, and looked at me.

"You're only sixteen?"

"Yes. Keep walking."

We continued walking, except in silence, until we reached the hole that we came from. I looked up and looked back at the ponies.

"HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET UP THERE!?!?", yelled out Golden Grape.

*SNAP* The walls that were alongside the hole were turned into a spiral set of stairs.

"Tran, exactly how good is your magic?", Logan asked.

"I can move the sun and moon and that was before schtuff happened to me", I replied.

"Stuff? What happened?"

"Like I said, I'll tell everyone later."

Once out of the hole, we were greeted by the three princesses, the mane six, Shining Armor, and eight guards. The lot of us, minus me, bowed down in front of Equestria's four princesses and prince. Upon the sight of us, the guards took out spears and held them at the seven at us..

"Do you guys ever learn?", I said while gripping my katana and going into a battle stance.

"Tran, don't harm them. They're just new recruits", said Celestia.

Out of nowhere, I started sheathing my sword slowly back into its scabbard, even though it had appeared as though I never unsheathed it in the first place. The katana slowly slid back into its scabbard as it made a slight slinking sound. The hilt of the sword's hilt contacted the scabbard. *CLINK* The guard's spears fell to the ground cut in eight pieces and their armor fell to pieces. I held my sword, still in its scabbard, like a cane and stared at the guards.

"H-h-how? We didn't even see you move", said Twilight.

"Well Princess Twilight, I will tell you how later."

"When will you tell us?", asked Rarity.

"Start with your eyes. Why are they like that? Why? How come? What's the reason? Can you explain? Huh? Can you?", said Pinkie Pie.

"Tran, you said that you could see in the dark with your eyes when we were in those tunnels. Can you explain how and why?", asked Austin.

"Nope. Now I am going to do something important. If you need me, I will be falling unconscious and asleep because I have not slept in about three weeks. Before you say that is impossible, I will explain how later. Don't talk about your adventures without me." I fell to the ground backwards, landing on ground with a crashing noise. I slowly drifted into my subconscious for my much needed rest.

Third Person Point Of View

"Ummmmmm. Whut now?", asked Applejack.

"Luna, can you go into his dreams?", asked Scootaloo.

"You can go into dreams?", asked Rainbow Dash.

"Yes. You shouldn't dream of such things as you did", said Luna.

"Wait, what did Rainbow Dash dream of?", asked Rarity.

"Quiet. I need bliss and silence for this spell", said Luna. Her horn lit up and she casted a spell on Tran. Only, for it to get reflected back at Luna, knocking her into and through a boulder.

"SISTER!!!", said Celestia who ran to her.

"I'm fine. There is something blocking me from his dreams."

In Tran's Subconscious Mind

I stood there and looked around my dream. ‘Similar landscape to when I talked with Luna and the Nightmare. I can feel a powerful magical being's presence.' There were several clouds and several buildings in Greek architecture.

A large white robed figure walked up to me and faced me. "Hello child. I am-"

"Jehovah", I said cutting him off.

One Hour Later

I woke up with a rush and faced my friends, the Mane six, the three princesses, Shining Armor, several doctors, and several others.

"Are you finally going to tell us why your eyes are black?", asked Austin.

"I was hoping to tell you this later. My eyes are like this because it shows that I'm a Nightmare now."
