The party went on without a hitch. Twilight actually agreed to meet some new ponies, which happened to be the ones Alan already met, and she was now chatting up a storm with a strangely familiar red pony that had a fire emblem on his flank. Alan stood by the door with his arms crossed as all the ponies around him either danced or stared at him in awe. He huffed, a few ponies recoiled.
*Oh my… This party better pick up soon…* Alan thought to himself as he pulled his wrist up to look at his watch. *Oh goodie, a few minutes until the sun comes up thank. Gods.* he stared back at the ponies through his orange sun-glasses. He waited and waited, then finally someone called all the ponies to attention. Alan shook his head and started walking while the mayor talked away.
He didn't really pay attention to where he was going until he was halfway up the stairs to where the Mayor was. There was a sudden gasp as something black filled the stage momentarily before a pony as big as Celestia formed. Alan knew instantly who it was. She laughed evilly and stood tall "Your sun will raise no more! The time for eternal night has come! I Nightm-" Alan ran towards her "Not on my watch!" he shouted and tackled her. Nightmare kicked his helmet but only managed to piss off the soldier even more.
He wrestled her arms and legs down just before he felt a strange feeling shoot through his body. When it was over there was no noise other than his own grunt and his boots hitting stone as he stumbled from the sudden nausea he got. He braced himself on a wall then got a look at his surroundings. He was in an old castle, it was REALLY REALLY old.
He heard something, almost like crying. He followed the noise down the hall, his M4 pointed in front of him as he crept around and continued down the hall. He eventually came to a room that held a single, sobbing pony. Alan noticed the brightly colored rainbow mane, then realized it was Rainbow Dash!
He ran to her and put his M4 down "Rainbow Dash! Holy hell are you alright?" he asked in shock once he noticed the pool of blood underneath her. He touched her shoulder, Dash recoiled in shock and fear "N-NO! STAY AWAY FROM ME!" Alan saw where the blood had come from, there was a large cut on her belly, with multiple cuts surrounding it. He held up his hand "Dash please what the hell happened? We need to get you some help I can wrap you up but-" He stopped disentrance when he saw blood on his clothes and gloves.
He looked at the gloves then back to Rainbow Dash, who for some reason wasn't using her hind legs and he saw she didn't have her wings anymore, instead there was two lumps that looked like a chainsaw had gone through them. "Dash I didn't do this" Rainbow Dash had tears rolling down her cheeks "I trusted you Alan! Look what you did to me!" she yelled in pain and fear. Alan shook his head "No, no, I do not hurt innocent people" he said and backed away from Rainbow Dash.
A laugh came from behind Alan, he spun around and saw Pinkie Pie standing there with blood on her body and a crazed face on "Good job Alan! Now, cut her all the way open and take the candy out of the pinata!" she said with an evil cackle. Pinkie lifted a chainsaw and pushed past Alan, and with one swift blow, she slice through Rainbow Dash's arm and neck.
In an effort to save Rainbow Dash, Alan gripped his hands into fists and swung hard at Pinkie Pie. He felt contact and went through with the swing. Once he regained his stance instead of the pink menace, it was an orange mare with blonde hair. Apple Jack was reeling back from the blow. She looked Alan in the eyes, a bruise already forming on her cheek, tears rolling down her face. "How could you? I… I thought you loved me?" she asked. Alan looked around, he was back in Ponyville square surrounded by everyone except the pink pony and Dash.
"A…Apple Jack I…" Alan stuttered. Apple Jack ran off with tears in her eyes. Alan looked at his hands and closed his eyes "What the hell is this?!" he shouted and pushed against the crowd of ponies. He slipped through a hole and landed back with Dash and the pink devil. He tackled Pinkie and took the chainsaw. He scooped Dash up onto his shoulder and ran down the hallway. He found himself in Twilight's house. There was blood on the stairs leading to her room. "I'm just dreaming" he said to himself and placed Rainbow Dash down "Wait here, protect yourself" he said and handed her the chainsaw. As Alan progressed up the stairs, he found the blood got more and more polluted with a purple liquid. "Pen ink?" he asked himself as he came to the top.
He saw Twilight laying on her bed sobbing lightly. Alan approached her, the blood on the stairs disappeared as he got closer. Alan tapped Twilight's shoulder "T-Twi-" he pulled Twilight over and took a step in shock. Her neck was slashed by a small razor that lay by her bed, blood and the faint remains of a magical essence was lingering on the tiny blade. Alan took a deep breath "No… No… I'm dreaming" he said and walked to the window. He peered out and saw a stone, two stones. It was raining outside. Alan saw a helmet near the larger headstone.
He jumped down off the second floor and landed near Rainbow Dash. She turned around and hit the blade against Alan's shin. He ignored the bunt "Watch it RD, thank god the blade wasn't spinning. I'll be right back ok?" he pet her head softly as she nodded and wiped away blood. Alan broke through the front door and ran to the two grave stones, as he got closer and closer, he started to notice that one of the graves slowly started disappearing. The smaller one went away completely.
The larger grave wasn't filled. Alan peeked in and saw nothing. "What the hell?" he asked himself just before he felt something slam his head. He dropped to a knee, another sharp pain shot through him. he fell forward, just before his face hit the bottom of the grave…
His eyes shot open and saw Rainbow Dash's face. Alan nearly panicked and punch Dash but he stopped himself "What the fuck? Where am I?" Alan sat up and Rainbow Dash floated by him "You nearly killed yourself just now!" she said and waited for Alan's response. Alan shook his head and looked around "Where am I?" he asked when he saw only clouds. Rainbow Dash sat down on a cloud "You're standing on clouds. Did you forget? You have wings now!"
Alan sighed. "Fuck this" he said and pulled out his USP and put it to his chin and pulled the trigger. Blood splattered against the wall behind his head. Alan blinked and found he was pointing his pistol at another soldier instead of himself. "What the fuck" he said like he was used to it. He tried it again but the gun was out of ammo. "Let me go!" he yelled loudly and threw his gun against the wall, which exploded, sending shrapnel everywhere. Alan yelled in pain as his arm went limp due to a piece of rebar going into it. He roared his battle cry and charged through the hole, just to take a step off of a cliff. He found his arm was normal again and that he was holding an RPG in one hand and a package in another. He yelled again and dropped the package, pointed the RPG at his stomach and fired. The rocket went through his body and broke through a window next to Alan's face. He yelled again "NNOO!" he shoved open the door of the humvee and waited for the inevitable change in dream. It didn't happen.
He pulled out his USP again and shot every one of his friends that were in the humvee. The world around him twitched. He pulled the gun to his head shot himself once more, this time breaking part of his own memory. He pulled the trigger again and again and again and again until he finally-
His vision rushed back to him all at once to reveal a very very angry Nightmare Moon "How? How did you break out of my spell?!" she asked as Alan stumbled and tried to stay standing "You" Alan growled and held his head "Are going down bitch"
Nightmare Moon frowned and her horn began to glow. Alan pulled out his pistol and pointed it at Nightmare Moon's head "Don't even try it bitch, these bullet move faster than you can blink, good luck beating it" he said and walked closer "how about we settle this like civilized people and let the damn sun rise so we can all live peacefully." he said and felt himself start to lift off the ground. "I said don't-" He barely muttered before he flew into a nearby stone wall. He hit the wall hard enough that his helmet toppled off his head and he let a round fly from his USP.
The bullet clanked off of Nightmare's helmet. The mare shook it off "What is that thing?" she asked angrily and approached Alan, who shook off his dizziness from the blow and pointed his sidearm at the approaching pony "It's called a gun" he said and started to stand "back off before I blow your brains out the back of your skull"
Nightmare glared at him "I am unstoppable! A mortal weapon could not harm me!" she said loudly and took another step towards Alan, who squeezed the trigger lightly "Don't try me" he said lowly as Nightmare took another step forward. Alan swung his pistol at her head but it went straight through as she turned into a cloud of black.
Nightmare kicked Alan's side when she became solid again. Alan stumbled and kicked one of her legs, causing her to trip up a little. Alan balled his left had into a fist and punched her down. Nightmare fell down and swept Alan's legs out from under him. Alan hit the ground with a grunt but that didn't stop him from latching onto one of her legs and pounding her body with whatever hits he could get in.
Nightmare and Alan wrestled each other on the ground for a good five minutes trying to get on top to finish the other person. Alan finally forced Nightmare down. He pulled out his combat knife and raised it above his head "ONE LAST CHANCE! TAKE YOUR GOD DAMN SPELL OFF YOU BITCH!" Alan brought the blade down quickly. Nightmare shifter her weight and caused the blade to slice off part of her horn. She yelped in pain when the blade sliced through and hit the hard stone floor, causing sparks to fly.
Alan regained his posture, he was about to finish the damn thing off when something magically grabbed his arm and yanked him off of Nightmare. Alan tumbled once before he landed on his knees and a hand, knife in hand ready to strike. He spotted Twilight with the six other ponies she was with before "Alan! You can't harm her anymore, we still need her to reverse the spell!" Alan growled but nodded regardless of what he wanted to say and do. Twilight started glowing and so did the others.
Alan stood up and put his knife away, picked up his pistol, and went to the nearest staircase. He let Twilight Sparkle and others do their thing. He sat down on the last step and let his head hang between his knee pads. "fuck this shit. I did not sign up to teleported to god damn pony hell" he said and looked at his hands "what I wouldn't give to touch genuine human soil" he said and looked behind him when he heard foot steps. The first thing he saw was his helmet and glasses, then he saw the teal pony wearing them.
Rainbow Dash came down the stairs "they're almost done up there" she said and sat next to him "Just a few more minutes and we can get back to Ponyville and sleep" Alan nodded and looked himself over "yeah… I'm leaving right now if you want to come along" Alan stood up and took his helmet from Dash, who nodded, and placed it on his own head. He started walking down the halls, looking for the exit as Rainbow Dash trotted silently next to him…
