-Planet Earth-
Bruno sat comfortably in front of his monitor, surveying the security sweep. Thieves had taken to breaking onto his property, so he had installed cameras to keep an eye on the premesis. After checking that all was clear, he stood up and stretched. Walking out of his security room, he moved down the hall and opened another door. Flicking the light on, he sighed lovingly as he gazed around at his military collection. He had every type of submachine gun, shotgun, heavy machine gun and knife at his disposal, as he had been collecting for years. Picking up an M1 Garand rifle and some ammunition, he moved back out of the room and headed outside. Bruno's collection was the reason the theieves had been trying to break in. The cameras were just a precaution, to serve as a warning to the thieves that he knew they were there. If they did manage to get into the house, they would have to go through with him... Fully trained in how to use all his weapons. He personally favored the MG42. He had even set it up at one end of the hallways just in case they tried to ambush him. Walking over to his target range, he set the ammo on the ground. Loading a clip into the rifle, he heard the satisfying *click* and took careful aim.
-Equestria-
Twilight Sparkle and her friend Rarity sat around Twilight's table, drinking tea and chatting happily.
"And he's planning on proposing to her today!"
"Oooh... I wonder how Octavia will respond..."
"Oh deary, you know how long her and Mac have been dating!"
"True..." Twilight gave a small sigh. She and Hanz had been dating for a while as well. Their romance was blossoming and Twilight felt like any day Hans might pop the question himself. Noticing Rarity had stopped talking and was watching her oddly, Twilight realized she had drifted off into her thoughts. "Oh, sorry Rarity."
Rarity smiled. "It's alright darling. I'm sure whatever it was, it was romantic because of the look you had..."
Twilight sighed. "Oh, I was just thinking of Hans and me... our future..."
Rarity nodded. Just as she went to speak, they heard a scream from outside. Jumping up, they rushed outside to see Mac looking slightly shocked while Octavia bounced around him.
"YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!" she was screaming repeatedly.
Rarity let out a laugh. "I think we both know what this is about."
Bruno sighed as he finished his usual firing, then looked towards the gate of his home. Seeing a box, he said "That must be it!" Setting his rifle aside, he rushed down the driveway and opened the gate. Lugging the crate inside, he carried it all the way back to his home. Tugging it inside, he opened it and looked in. Letting out a maniacal laugh, he held up a small device. Carrying it tenderly, he headed down the hall to his bedroom. Getting on his personal computer, he looked at the page of the item he had just recieved.
"Die Glocke: Top secret Nazi experiment. Offering a piece off the mainframe of one of the "teleporters" uncovered by the Red Army in 1945! Bargain at $10,000!"
Bruno smiled and looked at the device again. It was shaped like a box, with German writing inset into the sides and several small switches. Noticing a socket in the top, he quickly rushed out to get an extension cable.
Mac and Octavia sat happily on a bench in the park, surrounded by friends. The Mane 6 were offering their congratulations, Karl and Hans were patting Mac on the back and Ditzy was giving Karl hintful looks. Vinyl Scratch sat next to Octavia chatting about the music that would be played at the wedding. Twilight glanced over at Hans, and he looked back, giving her a smile. She returned it and looked at Mac. He was blushing deep red from everypony's compliments
Bruno held up the cord and carefully plugged it into the socket. The cord was wired up to his computer, and hopefully turning on the device would give him some important information on the Nazi regime or something. Holding his breath, he flipped up all the switches. A brilliant flame emitted from the device and burned Bruno's hands. Letting out a cry of pain, he dropped the device. A beam of light emitted out from the middle, and shone out the window.
The ponies all gasped as a beam of light formed in front of the bench. Twilight frowned and trotted close to it. Looking in, she could see grass, some trees and a fence. "Hey guys... Check this out."
As the ponies crowded around, the portal suddenly started sucking the air in. The ponies all screamed as they were sucked in...
Bruno jumped up and quickly kicked the device. The device gave a sparkle, then turned off, letting out a quiet whining sound. Rushing out the door, he ran for the bathroom. Turning on the sink, he let the cold water flow over his hands, gently making them feel better. Letting out a sigh of relief, he turned the sink off and headed back to his room.
Twilight groaned. Opening her eyes, she saw rainbow colored hair shoved into her face. "Rainbow, move over." When there was no response, Twilight sighed. Rolling over, she put her hands in front of her and got up. "Wait... hands?" she thought, checking again. Indeed, she had hands. Giving herself a look-over, she gasped, then looked at everypony else. They were all humans! Twilight gave a small scream. They were all dressed in plain shirts and pants. Putting her hands over her mouth, Twilight closed her eyes, hoping it was all just a dream. Pinching herself, she gasped louder. "I'm not dreaming!" she cried in mute horror. Looking at her friends again, she saw Hans and Karl were back to the way they were before, complete with their old uniforms. Crawling next to Hans, she shook him gently. "Hans! HANS!" she said, pushing him harder. Hans groaned and opened his eyes. "Whatsitwhoyou...?" he mumbled sleepily. Suddenly, his eyes shot open and he jumped up.
"Who are you?" he yelled. Looking down, he gasped as he saw he was back in human form with his old uniform. Sputtering and gasping, he looked at everyone else. "I'm... human!" he managed to say. Twilight nodded. Hans looked at her and frowned. "You still have your horn!"
Twilight gasped and reached up. Indeed, her horn was protruding still from her forehead. Feeling her flank, she saw she also still had a tail. Hans smiled. Feeling himself, he grinned. 'I'm one hundred percent human again!"
Twilight scowled. Looking at Rainbow, she saw that Rainbow still had her wings and tail, as well as Fluttershy and Ditzy. Rarity and Vinyl still had their horns and tails. Looking further, she saw a beautiful woman with slightly gray skin and black hair lying peacefully next to a large man wearing all red. Hans came up next to her and offered his hand. "You won't be used to two feet, so you'll need help." Twilight smiled and took his hand, getting gently to her feet.
Bruno scowled down at the wrecked device. It was smoking and fizzling gently. Gingerly removing the socket, he saw that his computer had fried out. "Aw shit..." he mumbled. Sighing, he walked out of his room and headed for the security room. Sitting down in front of the monitors, he scrolled through the cameras. Upon reaching the one facing the gate, he frowned. There was a group of people lying on the ground behind the gate on his property, with two of them walking around. Zooming in, Bruno's brain nearly exploded. There was a man in a full Wehrmacht uniform leading around a girl wearing a tail and horn that was walking like she had never walked before. "A furry and a German? What... the... hell...?"
Twilight giggled and gasped as she nearly fell over again. She was quickly getting the hang of walking on two feet. A groaning nearby made her and Hans look. Rainbow was groaning and making small coughing sounds. Flapping her wings, she rose into the air and looked around. Seeing Twilight and Hans, she let out a scream of shock and fell to the ground. Getting up shakily, she saw her own slightly human body and hands and screamed louder.
"What is this? Twilight! Fluttershy! Someone!"
Twilight quickly stumbled over and hugged Rainbow. "Hey, hey. It's me."
"Twi... Twilight? What happened?"
"I have no idea!"
Rainbow gave Twilight a frightened look. Looking around, she saw a large magnificent house and frowned. "Is that a house?"
Just as Twilight was about to answer, a sharp voice rang across the yard.
"You people. You have thirty seconds to vacate the premesis immediately or I WILL open fire."
A/N: Thought i'd try something different for a change. Review to let me know if I should continue.
