Supermarine "Spitfire"

Grave Danger

The Next Morning:

Jacob woke up and found himself surrounded by the six creatures he met yesterday.

"Uh, what are you doing?" he asked, a bit uncomfortable.

"Twilight did say that you should tell us something about you or your world right?" Smolder asked.

"Yes, of course... uh, personal space, please?" The creatures backed away.

Jacob cleared his throat and began his story, "I'm from this planet called Earth, it's a beautiful world, but if could have been better without that war." he sighed, "My planet is at a massive war, you know, people dying. And it all started because of a mad German guy name Adolf Hitler---"

"What are Germans?" Silverstream suddenly interrupted, then she found everyone looking at her, unamused. "Oops, sorry. Continue please."

"Germans are the bad guys in my world, actually, they're not the ones that wanted to conquer the world. They got allies: the Italians and the Japs." Jacob stopped when he saw the confused looks on the six students. He sighed and told them about the history of the war and some other stuff they might get confused on.

"Wait, if you say war is horrible," Sandbar asked, "Why did you attend it in the first place?"

"Well, I don't want to be a part of the war either, but I have to fight back. I have to protect my country and my people." Jacob said.

"Wow, your world is pretty chaotic." Smolder nodded.

Jacob sighed, "Indeed it is. Worst of all, the Nazis; led by that mad guy I mentioned before, Hitler, murdered millions of innocent people; including kids like you guys..."

This time the six students's eyes were widened with horror. Murder innocents? How could him? They all have the same thought.

Suddenly the door opened and Twilight poked her head in. "Oh, morning guys." she greeted, "Jacob, I told Princess Celestia about you in my letter and she wants to see you. Follow me to the train station after breakfast." she left.

"Welp, sorry guys." Jacob said to the disappointed students, "I guess I'll explain more stuffs to you later."

On the train, Twilight kept asking questions about Jacob's world. But Jacob did not seemed annoyed at all. Instead he's eager to tell her stuff. He did this so Twilight can know more about him and his world, on the second hand she might find some kind of spell to get him back home.

"So, uh...Mr.Jacob," Twilight asked, "what is that thing you said you're going to fly?"

"You mean the plane?" Jacob answered, "Yeah, it's called a plane. Back in my world, they're machines that used to transport cargos or things that needed to be in a certain place quickly. But most of them were used as war machines. We put these thing called guns on them to fight other planes...."

Twilight seemed to be enjoying what Jacob is telling her, she's the "research" kind of pony.

As they talked, the train slowly came to a stop. "First stop, Canterlot!" the conductor called. "Jacob, welcome to Canterlot." Twilight said as they went off the train.

To be honest, Jacob is quite amazed my how peaceful and beautiful this place is. Of course this is way better than the world he used to be in. But that doesn't mean he want to abandon his world. HE got his families and friends back home that he really wants to go back to see.

"Wow, so this is were the...uh...Princess Celestia lives?" Jacob asked as he approached the giant castle. "Wup! Pretty impressive isn't it?" Twilight said proudly.

When they reached the castle, they are immediately stopped by two pegasus guards, both fully armed and with a stern face. Twilight stepped forward and started to talk. A moment later, the guards nodded and made way for them.

Jacob couldn't stop looking at this.... beautiful palace. Its more impressive then the one in London. He thought, his sight dropped on the golden decorations. Holy shit! These stuff cost millions of pounds! (Pounds are UK moneys)

They stopped in front of a pair of tall metal plate door. "Jacob, the throne room is in there. Be sure to respect it and be on your best behavior." Twilight reminded him.

The door opened and the two stepped inside.

The first thing Jacob saw was a white pony with similar horn and wings like Twilight's but she's taller, and her mane is floating in the air with beautiful colors of lime green, light blue, and light pink. They're dazzling as if it was reflecting lights.

"My faith student." she said with a warm smile on her face. She saw Jacob, "And that's the human you told about in the letter?"

"Yes, Princess Celestia." Twilight answered.

It took a moment for Jacob to realize that she's the princess Twilight told him about. "Your majesty." he bowed.

"There's no need to bow," Celestia smiled, "I'm Princess Celestia, ruler of Equestria. And you are..."

"My name is Jacob Willson, but call me Jacob if you like." he said.

"I see..." she said, "You came into our world and with no way back."

Jacob nodded.

"Well, perhaps you can adopt our ways of living until Twilight finds a way to sent you home." she said.

"Your majesty," Jacob asked, "Where did they put my plane?"

"Oh, so that flying metal bird is called a plane..." Celestia said, "Your machine was brought to the Wonderbolt academy to be repaired and for further research...if you like."

Jacob thought about if for a moment, letting some strange creatures study your plane sounds... quite weird, but they seemed harmless and peaceful. So there's no point worrying that they'll use it on some evil purposes.

"Sure. They can study it... and how am I suppose to go up there?" Jacob asked.

"In a normal condition you can't go to Wonderbolt Academy, because they're built on clouds; and only pegasus can walk freely on them. But they can also put a spell on you and your machine to walk on the clouds physically." Celestia explained.

"I suppose I have to go now?" he asked.

The princess nodded, "you're free to leave, and also, feel free to ask any questions."

The pilot bowed, "Thank you your majesty."

He then walked out with Twilight.

On Wonderbolt Academy's air field

Jacob couldn't believe it, he's actually stepping on clouds. "In my world, clouds were made of tiny water drops, and if you step on them, you just fall." he said to Spitfire, who's studying his plane.

"interesting," she said, "how are you going to fly this...plane?"

"We just get into this cockpit, start up the engine and the propellers would stat to spin in high speed. Then the thruster pipes would 'Spit fire'. And once you reach the takeoff speed, the the plane would be flying. But it's a bit complicated." Jacob explained.

"I would like to see that." Spitfire smirked, "A plane with my name on it? Can't call it nothing but cool."

Rainbow Dash, the blue pegasus with rainbow colored manes suddenly flew from the distant, carrying a bag load with a bunch of parts and scraps. "Jeez these are heavy," she panted as she landed next to them. "So how are you gonna fix it?"

"As a pilot, we learn not only how to fly it, but how to fix it incase of an emergency landing." he said, "Here, hand me the landing gear..."

After hours of fixing, with the help of pegasus, the "Spitfire" is almost ready to go.

"Hey Jacob, "Rainbow Dash asked, "What is this thing and where do I put it?" she had a long meal thing on her hooves that had a belt with sharp little metal nail like things on them. And a black tube connected to the metal.

Jacob turned and saw what she's holding, his face horrified, "RAINBOW DASH!!!" he yelled, "Put...that....down...."

Hearing the tone in his voice, Rainbow Dash slowly put it down. "Sorry." she muttered.

"No need to blame yourself." Jacob said, "You don't know what that is. That thing is a 7.7mm browning machine gun. Glad you didn't trigger it..."

He got up to the Spitfire's wings and placed each machine guns back to where they belong, he load up the ammo belt and closed the ammo hatch on the wings.

"There, good as new." he said proudly, "Thanks for all your help!"

"I was thinking..." Spitfire said, "maybe the Wonderbolt could use these planes as the tools and not ourselves. It would be better, and cooler. Especially the whole "Spitfire" thing."

"Same, maybe you should create some sort of Air Force unit incase anyone tries to attack Equestria." Jacob suggested, "Or you guy can just use it for air shows."

Suddenly out of no where, a gray colored pegasus with yellow manes rammed into Jacob. Causing both of them to collapse onto the floor.

"Derpy?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Mail for you, Mr...uh." Derpy said, but paused when she couldn't recognize this human.

"Jacob." he said.

"Mr. Jacob, a mail from Princess Twilight. Have a good muffin!" then she dropped the mail in front of Jacob before flying away.

Jacob opened the mail and began to read, his expression switched from a smile to a deep, serious frown. The others looked too. And their face expression was also slowly starting to frown.

"Dear Jacob Willson,

Since the day you crashed into our world, I have been researching what brought you here and your species. Just 2 hours after your appearance, my friend Starlight Glimmer got a report from my friends saying that they also spotted your species in Griffinstone. They looked almost same as you, but they wore gray uniforms and carries what you call guns, long and shorts. And they have many weapons.

But what caught their attention is that they have this flag; a blood red flag with a white circle in the middle, and a weird looking black cross in the center. They don't seem friendly, because one of my friend just saw them killing a Griffin. And they did mentioned about conquering this new land.

If you know anything about them, please report to Princess Celestia in the first place.

Your friend,
Twilight Sparkle."

"What's with all the gloomy-doom face?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Shit, they're here." Jacob muttered.

"Who?"

"The Nazis," Jacob turned and faced them with a serious expression, "Equestria is in grave danger."
