Tom had just explained to everyone in the building what has gone on in the past week. Now they were visibly afraid of him and the others. Tom heard the screams from outside when a pony dared to get close to the Mantis.
"Well at least it doesn't kill them," Tom thought. He knew how afraid they were but he wasn't to concerned with their emotions.
"Well your a major jerk," Rainbow said angrily.
"I... We only did what we had to," Tom replied.
"Yeah? Well maybe you should let people explain themselves before you go in killing them all!" Rainbow said flustered. She was turning a dark red from anger.
"Look, Rainbow Dash was it? Get this through your head before I beat it into it. Aliens DO NOT SPEAK ENGLISH! Unless they have a translator but something told me they didn't. Besides if those aliens had been able to speak English I'm sure they would have said something."
"I don't care if they were mentally retarded, that gives you no reason to kill them!" Rainbow Dash was getting to close for Toms liking.
"Back it up".
"Make me!"
Tom for once in his life wish he could shoot something friendly, or at least was friendly before. He kept that under wraps though.
"Look I don't want to argue but your friend asked me why we were here. So now you know why but yet you want to kill me for it."
"Guys stop arguing, he's right I asked because I was curious." Twilight cut in.
"Egghead back up nobody asked for your input". Rainbow replied angrily.
"Hey! I want to know and that could help me send them back so calm down!"
"ALL OF YOU SHUT UP!" Melissa yelled in the background. "Now, we did not come here to harm ANY of you. We went through that portal because we thought we would die. So retreat was the best decision at the time. You cannot blame us for not wanting to die or to even come into your world".
"Sir, there are friendly human soldiers outside," the Mantis said through Tom's speakers.
"Uh, Melissa and Jake we have a big problem. Follow me!"
Tom ran outside followed closely by Jake and Melissa. Walking down the street were very confused soldiers in very old armor. Most of them resembled Master Chief. Tom's jaw literally fell to the bottom of his helmet when he recognized the soldiers.
"Tucker shut the fuck up! I will not tell you again, we are just dreaming no need to worry about these fucking things," The one whom Tom believed to be Church was talking to his squad. Tom walked out and greeted the other squad.
"See Tucker you were worried about nothing and you owe me 5 dollars bitch," Church said while laughing. Tom stood at attention and saluted.
"Church this guys saluting you". Tucker hit Church on the side of the head.
"Yeah I noticed asshole," Church said rubbing the side of his helmet. He turned towards Tom.
"Bro, why are you saluting? I'm not that high of a rank".
"You did a feat most of us judged as impossible. Yet you did it".
"What might that be?"
"You took down the Freelancers, mostly..." Tom said eyeing Agent Washington warily.
"Yeah I did do that didn't I?" Church chuckled.
"Hey dipshit we helped you as well," Tucker said hitting Church in the side of the head painfully.
"Hey asshole! Stop hitting me".
"That makes me want to do it more," Tucker said hitting Church again.
"Fuck you," he said as he turned to Tom. "Sorry about my friends, wait no I'm not. Anyway, where are we?"
"I was about to ask you the same thing".
"Damn, I have no idea. One second I'm walking with these dumbasses, then I'm in this land of colors". He shook his head. "They give me a headache".
"Tell me about it. The colors aren't the only thing that will give you headache. The horses that live around here do a better job of that".
"Great, and I thought the band of dipshits over here was hard enough". Church said shaking his head sadly. "Should we shoot these horses I mean the only thing they are good for is staring it seems like". Tom looked around all the ponies in the area were cowering in fear staring at the group.
"Nah man, I mean as much as I'd like to. They don't seem to be a threat, we are probably more of a threat to them then they are to us". Tom and Church shared a little chuckle.
"Oh! My! God! These horses can talk!" Tom glanced around Church to see one of his squadmates was getting very close to a group of ponies. They were telling him to get away.
"I shall call you... Wait I know!" Church stopped Caboose before he could make himself look like more of an idiot. Wait making Caboose not look like an idiot was impossible.
"Caboose back away from the gay horse looking things," Frowning Church looked a their many colors and gave a sigh as the colors gave him a headache.
Caboose backed up for the time being. Twilight came outside to see what was taking so long and she realized it was no longer just Tom and his friends. There was now 7 more of them. Nervously she trotted inside and found Spike. She told him to get a letter ready.
"Dear Princess Celestia, it seems as though beings from another world have found their way to my home. Their are 10 of them and a giant robot thing. Please teleport them to you as they a causing fear to about everypony in town".
"Ok Spike send it". She watched as the dragon sent the letter with his fire. Outside was turning into chaos as Caboose was frightening everyone outside.
"Church! Did you know these things can talk!"
"Yes Caboose, you said it 5 times already," Church said rolling his eyes.
"It is so cool!"
"Caboose just don't touch any of them for Christ's sake".
"Ok Church," He turned away sadly.
"Hey," Church motioned at Tom, "I never got your name".
"Tom Johnson, it's a pleasure".
"How about those two?"
"My younger siblings, Melissa and Jake".
"Bow-chika-bow-wow," Tucker said staring at Melissa.
"Tucker, shut your mouth before I do it myself".
"Hey don't look at me, I can't help it she's perfect. I would know, I'm great with the ladies".
"Oh yes Tucker I forgot so quickly. One such as you must be great since you had an alien baby," Church said sarcastically.
"Bro that was one time, and what happened to not bringing that up?" Tucker asked angrily.
"Oh sorry it seems to have slipped my mind". Even though Church knew he couldn't forget it because he was an AI.
"You have your ways of being an ass at all times".
"I take pride in them".
"Epsilon what happened to taking you back? I need you to help me get my slate clean". Washington said.
"Who's going to find you in here? The horse police?" At that moment the 10 aliens and the Mantis were teleported to Canterlot. The 10 stood up to see where they went.
"What happened?" Grif said opening his eyes an inch.
"Maybe if you didn't sleep all the damn time you would know," Sarge said.
Grif weighed his options for a second. "Nah I'll stick with not knowing". As he said that loud snoring could be heard coming from him. Church was arguing with Tucker about Tucker's lady knowledge. Grif was taking a nap. Simmons was sitting down with his hands on his faceplate. Caboose was bouncing around the room happily. Jake, Tom, and Melissa were talking to themselves. The Mantis was keeping an eye out for targets.
Celestia watched the spectacle in front of her as the 10 aliens and the robot did whatever they normally did. She eyed the Mantis cautiously and cleared her throat trying to get everyone in the rooms attention. She failed to do so. She then said hello in the nicest possible tone and everyone snapped to attention in her direction. She shifted uncomfortably for a second then cleared her throat again.
"Hello, my name is Princess Celestia. Who might you be?" She said not talking to anybody in particular.
Instead of the answer she expected she just got blank stares from everyone in the room.
Church spoke up. "My name is Church, we are humans. I am afraid we have no idea how we got here".
"Is there a reason you are scaring my subjects?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
"Because we don't give a fuck about them," Church replied calmly, knowing instantly he wasn't going to like it here.
"I don't like your tone".
"I don't like horses, guess we are even".
"I am not a horse, I am a pony. So are the rest of the beings that live here and Ponyville".
"That makes it even worse," Church said rolling his eyes.
"Well then, I am going to send you back to Ponyville".
"Good to know, hurry up with it".
"Oh one minor thing before you all go," She lowered her horn in their direction and hit them with a spell.
All of them began to scream in pain as their bodies changed form and the sound of screeching metal came to Celestia's ears. She noticed that even the robot was being turned into a pony. She waited a minute after the screaming had stopped.
Church looked down at himself, or what was supposed to be himself. He was now a horse like the rest of the people here.
"What. In. The. Actual. Fuck." He noticed everyone else had shocked expressions on their faces looking down at themselves. He still wasn't believing what he was seeing. He was dearly hoping this was a bad dream.
