"It was supposed to be a simple patrol they said. Simple patrol my ass."
Guess your wondering who i am huh? My name in Dylan Greengo. Sergeant in the USA army sniper division. I have no family left to speak of. Dad died in a car crash. Mom died in a the crossfire of a police shootout, and my sister was killed in a cousins and aunt and uncles were in there way to America for the family reunion and were killed by an IED planted in the engine. After that i lost all contact with my friends except for my best friend named Nick who later changed his name to AJ, lost my job, never had a girlfriend. My life was shit until i was recruited by a army ranger while i was testing out my new custom designed rifle i had just picked up from the gunsmith. The ranger saw me shooting and asked where i learned to shoot like that. Told him the truth. I have always had a natural instinct for it . He told me to come to the recruiter and the rest is history.
Me and my squad were on a regular patrol when we suddenly came under fire from some insurrectionists when we had finished our route and started our return to base. The attack was a trap. We were to be kept from getting back to base from what we were able to understand.
Why they wanted to keep us from getting to base we didn't know but we were determined to get to base. At the start i saw Jay go down from a barrage of bullet fire from an AK-47 and then Mike died from a sniper. By then the rest of us were behind cover taking out the insurrectionists left and right, Just than my M8A1 ran out so i switched to my double barreled 44 and started to shoot them right before my pistol ran out Shadow and the rest said they were out of ammo and i saw that we were out numbered and i was the only one with ammo left so i reloaded my pistol and handed it to AJ and pulled out my sniper.
My sniper was custom made it had a 12 shot revolver ammo piece with a silencer, red dot scope, laser sight, a under barrel shotgun and grenade launcher, removable barrel and stock. and a bayonet. It chambered .357 caliber full metal jacket rounds. The grenades were anti-tank grenades that were 3 times as strong as regular ones and then the strength of the explosion was doubled with a little bit of napalm in them.
Than after i switched Shadow went down.
"Well i guess this is the end huh?" said AJ.
My reply was "See ya in hell?"
"Heh. Ya. Been nice serving with ya dude."
"You to man. You to. Charge?"
"Hell ya!"
"Ready! Set! GO!"
We than jumped out of cover supriseing them. AJ took out twelve of them before going down.
When i charged i used my pinpoint accuracy while running to empty the clip with all 12 being head shots. than i removed the stock and barrel and used the stock as a club to kill three more before it broke than i used the barrel as a sword and took out 5 more before i lost to much blood and collapsed on the ground dead.
Now you must be wondering how i am telling this story. When i died instead of going to hell as i had thought i would. i woke up in a white room that looked like it went on for forever. THen i heard a voice that sounded like AJ.
"Hey dude! Where the Fuck are we!?"
"Not a damn clue AJ."
Then a voice spoke up.
"You my children are in the purgatory."
"Wait wait. WHAT?!"said AJ.
"The purgatory Where all the souls go to find out where they will go. Normally that is what would happen anyway. When your souls were placed they were actually supposed to go to a different dimension altogether and be brothers there, but due to a mistake by one of my angels you were born on the wrong planet and to the wrong parents. Basicly i am giving you guys a second chance at life. So if you accept this offer you will be brought to where you were supposed to be born. Equestria."
After a bit of talking we decided to take the offer but right before he sent us away to equestria we said in tandem.
"Do you have paperwork because we can tell you the secret to it." in a singsong voice.
"Tell me and i will give you the skills to do it and your guns and the knowledge you need to make ammo for them!"replied god in a pleading voice.
"Do you know about the show Naruto?"
"Yes what does that have to do with anything though?"
"What is Naruto's favorite attack?"
"The shadow clone technique. Why?"
"Never mind. I get what you are saying. When you wake up your guns and the knowledge to make bullets napalm and your grenades and the technique will be in your heads. Bye now"
"Bye God"
INTERMISSION
"Ugh my HEAD! UGH AJ you there?"
"Ya man. What the hell is with this headache?"
"Not a fucking clue. AHHHHHHH IM A MOTHERFUCKING HORSE!"
"AHHHHHHHHH SO AM I!"
"Dude I think I saw something on your back."
" What really what are they?"
"Dude you have goddamn wings! Hey do i have anything on my back?"
"Mhm nope but you have a horn."
"Oh…"
"Hey cheer up you can cast magic while i can only fly."
"Heh good point now what do we do? We're traped on a foreign plant and were transformed into horses."
"We are soldiers we will get through this and figure out what the HELL is happening. "
"Right ya we should find our stuff and then move out to find the nearest town or village or a city or even an encampment. "
As we made our way out of the forest we found a forest and decided to follow it north to hopefully we would be able to find civilization. As we were walking we heard a cry for help and ran to find the source. When we found it we saw a black bug like pony being attacked by some wolves made of wood. Right before she was killed I beheaded the wooden wolf while AJ shot another and got in a melee fight with another. Eventually we killed them or scared them all off.
"Thankyou for saving me. If you didn't I should have died for sure. My name is Shadowflower. Pleased to meet you. Now if my saviors could tell me their names?"
"Well my name is Dylan, and fatty over their is Nick…"
"Hey im not fat you ass."
"Quit talking about your mom."
"HEY HEY stop fighting! Why were you being such asses to each other? You seem like such good friends."
"Believe it or not we are actually pretty good friends."
"Why do i doubt that?"
"No idea. This is actually how we usually treat each other. We find that we are really good friends when normally most people would be trying to kill each other."
"Well i'm not surprised. I mean you just randomly insulted him and looked like you were about to rip each others throat out with your bare teeth. Well what's with your names? They seem pretty strange."
"First please don't say anything until we are done explaining. We were once a race of beings called humans. We were killed in a war started by a mad man. We were the first line of protection against the troops of the mad man. Our job was to patrol a large treacherous section of land that was supposed to be uncrossable during the day because we were in the hottest area of the dessert we were stationed in. As we were doing a routine run we were ambushed and us and the rest of our team was killed of before we were killed with them while they were sent to the plane of judgement we were sent to talk directly to god because of a mix up with one of his angels we wer4e placed in the wrong dimension altogether we were meant to be born in this one as brothers as well and you see these big pieces of metal and wood on our backs these are what are called guns they are a big piece of how humans like us waged war. I know this sound insane but its all true thats why our names sound weird."
"UM ok that actually sound plausible."
"Wait what?!"
"That explains why you are here are in here anyway and how you have those guns as you term them."
"So you don't think we are crazy?"
"That and you saved me."
" What do you mean "That and you saved me"?"
"All ponies hate us changelings."
"Why?"
"Because of what we feed on."
"And what would that be?"
"Promise you won't hate me?"
"Promise."
"We feed off of emotions we don't drain them as everypony thinks though. We take the emotion and due to special gland we have in our mouths we can turn them into a liquid that can then be drank that has enough mineral and vitamins in it that can feed us for years with a single mouthful."
"Well that doesn't sound so bad i mean humans kill each other and eat meat so compared to us that is tame and it would be easier to feed you than it would be to feed a spider in mosquito breeding season due to all the emotions that humans produce both good and bad mostly bad though."
"Really? You dont hate me?"
"I know im saying this about my own race at the moment but ponies sound like discriminating assholes."
"No they aren't they just don't like what they cant understand that and one of the biggest hives in existence attacked Canterlot the capital of the pony lands."
"Eh they did it to survive and get food humans have started wars for less. Any way would you mind traveling with us?
"Really!? After all i've told you you will let me travel with you?!"
"Yes of course we do!"
"Well than ok i will travel with you."
Alright that was chapter on tell me if there was anything i could improve on and any flames will be used to make me a cake.
This is Shadowcatch signing off.
Stay sneaky.
