The Imperial Incident Part 2

"MAN! WHO KNEW CORN ON A COB IS BETTER HERE!" Shouted Holt Martavias, as he chilled out with the Crystal ponies that were also enjoying the corn.

But they were distracted from who went by them as Yuri tripped inside the crowd of soldiers who didn't noticed anything.

Yuri looked back at the gullible troops and chuckled when he bumped on a orange pony who was guarding the "Crystal Heart"

Yuri and the orange pony hit their faces on the ground making the crystal slide and fall towards the solid ground before it was catched by Rainbow Dash in time.

"Phew! That was close, sorry if I was in the way mister?"

"Yuri, my name is Yuri." He introduced in a Slavic language.

"Interestin' accent you got there.. Yuri? Say, I never saw you types of humans before." Applejack observed Yuri a little bit before Yuri replied.

"That's because I was... Uhh. A traveler! Yes yes! And I'm currently looking to sell uh... Hmm.."

"Corn?"

"Yea! Yea! That's right corn! I do love corn.. Hehe..."

As Yuri cursed himself for saying that word since he never liked corn in the first place it seems the southern pony is even more gullible than the human soldiers.

"I think that checks out, if you want to set up shop go over there where Fluttershy is at and she'll set you right up there Yuri." Applejack smiled, but it made Yuri gag.

"Thanks...."

"No problem, happy to help stranger!"

As Yuri and Applejack parted ways Rainbow Dash noticed something suspicious with Yuri.

"Are you sure he's a corn selling human traveler?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"I think he is? I don't know what humans do for a living, other than sell or invent stuff." Applejack replied, which Yuri entered inside the Crystal castle right in front of the two.

"He's not a corn seller is he.." Rainbow Dash realized.

"Nope... Reckon you snatch him?"

"Me!? Why do I have to?"

"Because I have to!.. Guard the Crystal Heart hehehe.."

"Oh... On it!"

Rainbow Dash left Applejack's side and chased after Yuri who had been given a literal 10 minute head start.

"This is Hawkeye 0-1, we have now went passed Vanhoover coast and enroute to the tundra over."

"Copy that Hawkeye 0-1."

As the huey helicopter stayed in formation I looked out of the window with a curious mind on what's been going on, I just came back from a mission so why am I dragged into this one?

"So! You were gonna explain to me what's been going on have you?" I asked.

Uncle Sam turned towards me with a frown followed by a sigh which he stared at me and said.

"Glad you remind me.."

In 731.. The Crystal-Human war was somewhat a victory for us humans but...

The problem was the losses that occurred.. And I'm not talking about our losses..

When Sombra started the initial attack through his imperial colony we've slaughtered the initial attack forces before we can even discover that they were unarmed the entire time...

In fact from what I remembered is.. Others called the initial assualt "A army without weapons" to this day it was more of a massecre than a fight since they had nothing other than their bare fist, and the fact they were mind controlled was even worse..

But what was worse is that when we conquered our northern now communist neighbor.. The 143th Ranger division discovered that there was a spell on the entire lands of all of the Crystal Empire, President Andrew Jackson tried to warn the sisters Celestia and Luna but... They didn't think it was possible until it happened..

And when it happened not only Head General George Patton disappeared but along with his entire division.. What followed was mass riots that broke out all over the country, calling for war against Equestria. We've managed to disperse the crowd but in the end they let that bastard Buccannon into office the following year and well.. I think you know what happened next by now..

"Interesting explanation Uncle.. But just one question?"

"What is it?"

"Who or what is the Crystal Committee?" I asked.

Uncle Sam was a bit silent with the question, it was 3 and a half hundred years since the committees formation and the original members died off by now and replaced with a younger generation throughout the centuries he practically lost track of what their purpose was at all.

"Well you see... The Crystal Committee in simple terms was well.. Okay so it was originally going to be a expedition council before they were rejected by Celestia and Luna." Uncle Sam Briefly explained.

"Why were they rejected?" I asked again.

"Because uh... Luna became Nightmare moon, Bucannon was in office, Celestia banished Nightmare moon, then the council asked and Celestia said no.... Because by now we were on their shores..."

"Bombing them.."

".... Well that was VERY anti-climatic!"

"Yea... It was, of course I was in my garden the whole time of course during all of it."

"...."

After a moment of awkward silence between each other with the exception of the Helicopter blades making sounds I looked out the window and looked down upon a Pony village that was below us, a place with agriculture and hearty spirits.

"Hey pilot? Where are we?" I asked.

"We're at Tall tale county, one of the Agriculture cities at the Equestrian continent. Heh, barely see these types of towns nowadays." The Pilot replied chuckling not knowing what that meant to me.

"My home is those types of towns.." I said to myself, looking at the town before it would fade in the mist of the sky, wondering what everyone else was doing back home..

At camp June the now promoted Colonel Alexander was looking at his letter in a concerned state that made him drank himself to death.

Well almost to death, he popped open the lid off of a whiskey cider bottle and drinked the entire bottle bottle up when a knock sounded on his office door.

"Do not disturb!" Yelled Alexander, before the door opened which pissed him off.

"CREATER DAMMIT! WHAT DID I MEAN WHEN I SA-"

He looked at General Douglas MacArthur who happened to tower over him arms crossed staring the fear of Creator and harmony into his soul.

"I... Uh... I can explain si-"

"it's fine Colonel.. Sit down, and then after a little talk, clean this room... It smells like shit." Ordered the General.

"Right.. Right!! I'll sit now.."

The Colonel cleared a seat that was piled with Alcohol bottles towards the roof which made the General cringe and a bit distraught at the messy Colonel as he sat down on the now cleared chair which he can feel the singes of Alcohol staining his pants. He shook his head.

"Colonel Alexander B. Kenia.. If it was up to me, i'd personally have you discharged from the army!"

"I thought you'd say that... I'l- wait.. Did you say if?" Alex asked.

"Yes... Unfortunately if, if it wasn't for Uncle Sam himself saving your ass right now I'd have you out of this office and spare this room from your recently gained Alcohol bullshit! But with compromises I didn't came here to demote you but rather give you a protégé." Macarthur smirked when Alexander's eyes widen enough to were even the eye lids weren't big enough to contain them.

"P-P-PROTEGE?? General! I know I served under Major Gordan once and he was my mentor but me?? Having a Protégé? MacArthur I don't think I'd be ready for that type of responsibility I ain't ready for it!"

"Says the same person who said "It'll take two years to get a replacement" face the facts Colonel, you already knew this day would come some way or another, you will be personally be training the American Armies first ever and handpicked pony army officer!" Macarthur announced to Alexander, which stunned the alcoholic even more as he sat down on his chair in total shock.

"Pony... Why a pony!? Why couldn't be a griffon! Griffons are more cooler than a magic gloating pony!"

"Relax Colonel, it's a Earth pony."

"Puh.. Still worse, it's just a pony with no types of talents at all, and you expect me train him personally?"

"Either you train him Colonel.. Or your done, you have no choice here unless you consider leaving as a choice then the door behind me may be your destination, just make sure to pack your damn shit filled bottles up first." Macarthur threatened, which Alexander got up from his chair and stared at the window.

After a while he looked at the five star general and asked.

"What's his name?"

Macarthur replied.

"Gold Star."

"Open passage way private? THERE IS FUCKING NOTHING IN HERE! NOTHING BUT A FUCKING CHAIR!" Scolded Patton, as the soldier being scolded attempted to defend himself.

"B-but sir! I saw the passage way it was right here where I'm standing! Honest!"

"Honest? HONEST! HOW COULD YOU! BE HONEST, THE WHOLE FUCKING ONE THOUSAND YEARS IS HONEST, THE FUCKING FACT THAT THE DAMN GOTHIC DARK MAGIC PONY FUCKING CURSED A CITY TO GO POOF! AND THE FACT THAT I BELIEVED A TRUTH THAT MAGIC WAS A LIE WAS... Was..."

"A.. Lie sir?" The soldier replied, as the troops made a straight clearing for the solider who replied.

Patton looked at and stepped towards the soldier with a pissed face.

"Whats your name soldier.."

"Henry.. Sir.. Henry Wilkerson.."

"Tell me Henry Wilkerson.. Do you have somebody to go back to after all this is done?" Patton asked.

"I.. Do sir, my mom, my dad, and my fiancé.." Replied Henry.

"Alright.. Now about you soldiers.. What awaits you home hm?" Patton asked, the group went dead silent before one replied.

"My wife and children sir.. It's all that matters to me."

And then another.

"Family sir."

And another.

"My.. Union. Sir."

As Patton looked at their replies that sounded hopeful he sighed with the one realization.

"You.. Have nothing back home then.. Now, does any of yall want to know why?" Patton questioned.

The group was again, silent, no response, no mumbling, and no whisper, just silence. Patton then tooked his hat off, and slammed it on the crystal thrown making a huge bang sound.

"BECAUSE EVERYONE WE KNEW A THOUSAND FUCKING YEARS AGO IS DEAD! NO MOMMY, NO DADDY, NO FIANCE, NO ONE ! Lives.. A for a thousand years.. Now tell me gentlemen... Soldiers.. Men.. What exactly does that mean to you? Are you simply going to come back to the graves of the loves ones? Or perhaps return to something that had been dead for the past couple years? Well there's one thing to face gentlemen.. And that one thing is that we're all presumed dead by now... But that doesn't mean we don't have a purpose, who are we?"

The silence continued, Patton sat down on the throne leaned forward staring at his men who seemed to been either shocked or deeply empty. But one stepped up..

"We're soldiers." Replied the soldier, which the group looked at him. As another stepped forward.

"We're men."

More joined in.

"We're humans."

"We're Saviors."

"We're Peacekeepers."

"We, are Americans."

Patton got up from the throne in a resounded face of approval and surprise, he stepped down with a smile.

"You know... Perhaps we do have a calling, and it seems fate happened to called not just me.. But all of us to fight in this city or perhaps maybe this empire.. Heh, Uncle Sam will probably be pissed for this but I think we'll be staying where we should, what do you guys think of that?" Asked Patton.

The soldiers cheered and whooped at the Generals decision when the radio on his pocket sputtered with a shout.

"GENERAL!!! COME IN GENERAL PATTON WE HAVE A SITUATION!!!"

Patton grabbed the radio from his side and replied.

"What is it?"

"CADENCE HAS FALLEN, AND THE SHIELD IS DOWN! AS WE SPEAK I'M DISPATCHING THE ARMOR BATTALLION AND SENDING THE TROOPS TO THE TRENCHES!" Shouted the officer as the background is filled with soldiers holding bolt-action rifles and Thompson machine guns getting inside buildings and preparing to defend the city with their lives.

"FOR GOD SAKES KENNY! KEEP YOURSELF TOGETHER!" Replied Patton.

He hoisted his radio and turned to his soldiers.

"Load your guns men this is it, we'll need to-"

Suddenly a loud roar shouted indicating Sombra is drawing close, he peeped out of the throne room window and snarl at the sight.

"Disgusting shit, we need to get a move on! We'll find that Crystal organed shape later, or atleast till I can knock this bastard in the head with my own shit!"

Patton and the marine troops ran out of the throne with a accelerated pace, so fast that they didn't even caught a glimpse of Yuri when they went by him.

With Yuri meanwhile, after avoiding a wall of boots that narrowly trampled him to death, he walked inside of the throne room and grabbed out a high tech location device that tracks objectives set upon of his thoughts.

He hovered the locator all over the place, from the walls, the throne seat and even a crystal, he then pointed it at the highway he came out from and it saw nothing before there was a arrow that pointed down on the crystal floor, indicating that something is underground, it intrigued Yuri with a thought.

"Perhaps someone was smart to hide this objective under the ground cover by the crystalized properties of these lands... Smart for a pony but not smart enough to accommodate this."

He then placed all of his focus on the hollow flooring, at the first it didn't budge until it shook like a earthquake and then he lifted the entire floor off revealing a set of stairs leading to a basement, he smiled as he tossed the cursed floor that blocked him from his object to the side and walked down to the dark abyss once was known to be Sombra's underground depths below.

He grabbed a flashlight from his pocket and lit the stairwell he grabbed a penny and dropped it off the edge of the stairs listening for a plop when he heard it land to the absolute bottom telling him he has a long way to go.

What was a peaceful period now turn into a chaotic shoot out scene as Crystal Ponies are directly evacuated by Human soldiers while the troops attempted to slow down or even kill Sombra using machine guns and M1 Garand rifles.

"DAMMIT NOTHING CAN KILL THIS BASTARD!" Shouted a soldier, before he was trapped by the black crystals.

"SIR WE'RE LOSING MORE MEN THAN WE CAN GET MORE OF! WE NEED MORE SUPPORT!" Shouted a Warrant.

Patton ran outside with the marine soldiers as he looked at the chaos and saw that his men are disorganized from the fair.

"Dumbasses, PRIVATE SLAP YOUR OFFICER AND THEN TELL HIM TO PULL BACK WHAT WE HAVE SO WE CAN FOCUS ON THAT SON OF BITCH!"

"UNDERSTOOD! RIGHT AWAY!"

"CORPORAL! YOU ALSO, SLAP YOUR COMMANDING OFFICER AND TELL HIM TO BRING THOSE DAMN TANKS BEFORE I PERSONALLY FEED HIM TO THAT!" Pointed Patton, as the Shadow beast screeched indicating that's who he'll feed the Corporals officer to.

"SIR YES SIR!"

"REST OF YALL! DO THE SAME, BUT SLAP YOUR OFFICERS HARDER IN THE FACE!"

As the group dispersed Patton ran from the dwelling part of the castle and saw that the crystal was found by the looks of the Black Crystals, he also noticed that Shining Armor's magic seemed to be kicking Sombra's ass but he thought back in the previous chase from the beast and reminded himself of the great idea he had.

He ran inside the dwelling while shoving the Crystal Ponies out of his way and ran back top of the Balcony where he sees Shining Armor fighting off Sombra while defending Cadence, Patton grabbed his Colt Model and shot some rounds at Sombra's face causing the face to back off.

"General! What are you doing here it's not safe!"

"Well! If I go down I'd rather go down fighting, but if you intend on trying to defend your wife I'd suggest MOVING HER INSIDE!" Patton suggested, firing more shots.

"Is that really up for discussion!"

"Hell no it's not! I came here for another reason! You still have that horn of yours active right!?" Patton asked.

"Of course I do, but what do you have with my horn!?" Shining questioned.

"Not your horn sonny, your magic. Shoot your laser beam thingy at my pistol!" Patton asked.

"What? But if I do that you won't have a weapon at all!"

"Don't worry, I double wield! NOW DO IT!" He ordered.

"Your funeral general." Replied Shining armor, as he lit his horn and fired his magic at the pistol which transformed the openings in the hand pistol into bright purple color, Patton opened the revolver and sees the bullets glow in a magical aura. It surprised Shining Armor that it worked.

"Oh boy, I'm about to have fun with this." Patton smirked.

"Do not waste your shots general! That's all I can do!"

"Gee and to think you know a guy."

"JERRICK! HELP ME PUSH THIS M7!" Shouted Linan, as the two pushed on the M7 but fails to move it.

One of the Marines ran by the two and stopped turning and asking.

"What's going on!"

"SIR THE M7 SP IS STUCK! WE CAN'T GET IT TO BUDGE!" Shouted a soldier.

The radio comms are activated with orders from the Armor officer.

"ALL ARMOR PERSONAL FROM SELF-PROPELLED TO SHERMAN ARMOR TANKS, WE NEED TO DEFEND THE LOCALS FROM SOMBRA, WE NEED THEM FOR A CASTLE ITTER FORMATION IMMEDIATELY! THAT GOES FOR MECHANIZED UNITS AS WELL!"

The Marine quickly got behind the stuck M7 who was then joined by 7 other soldiers who heard the order as well.

"TOGETHER! ONE! TWO! THREE! PUSH!!!"

The 10 troops pushed the M7 off of the ditch it was stuck in giving the men air to breath.

"Do we head to the castle now?" Asked the soldier.

"Nah, I think I have a better Idea.."

"Do tell.."

"FIVE SHERMANS, 10 MECHANIZED, AND ONE SELF-PROPELLED IS ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE AREA, BUT WHERE IS THE SECOND ONE!" Shouted the officer.

"Sir they explained that they have a "plan" in the radio! But haven't revealed what it is yet?" The warrant explained.

"Fine I'll let them implement it as long as it works! But we don't have time for this anyways, do we have all the ponies in and accounted for!?"

"I don't know si-"

"WHERE'S MY CHILD!" Shouted a female Crystal pony.

"HAS ANYPONY SEEN MY TRUTHY!"

The officer looked around when the sky turned death Orange and white clouds replaced with black ash clouds before spotting a filly running from a wall of black crystals.

"Ah hell no not on my watch!" Shouted the officer, as he got off the canopy of the Sherman and ran.

"SIR ARE YOU CRAZY!" Shouted the warrant.

The officer grabbed his Sub-machine gun and fired on the black crystals that was forming behind the filly. The crystals shattered at the contact of the low caliber bullets as the officer picked up the filly and ran from the rebounding crystals chasing after him.

"Holy shit he is crazy.. GET READY TO FIRE!" Shouted the warrant, as the crew men got on the Browning Machine guns attached to the tanks and got ready to fire.

The crystals catched the officer by the leg dragging him and the filly away from the castle, the officer tried to kick it and bash it but failed miserably before it was precisely shattered from a revolver round from General Patton.

"GET MOVING DAMN YA, I GOT YOUR BACK!" Shouted the General from the balcony.

The officer nodded and ran back towards the tank barricades and climbed on top and shouted.

"OPEN FIRE!"

The HMGs and Light Machines fired upon the Crystals that were now shattering as if they never came to life, it started to hurt the shadow beast as more and more Crystals shattered.

The officer sat and lay on the tank treadmills and smiled, as the fillies eyes widened opened.

"Mama!" Said the filly, as the Crystal pony mother embraced him in tears.

"Thank you Mr.. Whats your name?" Asked the mother.

"Canter, Canter Yates.."

"Thank you Canter, for saving my child.. He's the only one I have left as family." The mother said, trotting away from Canter, he looked at a family photo and smirked.

"I can't wait to see you... Meagan.."

"Pilot! How far are we now!?" I asked.

"15 miles from here, then we'll be there!" The pilot replied.

I sat down on the chair and looked at the front, I looked at a photo of my Great Grandfather who was there with my Great grandmother Meagan.

"What picture is that?" Asked Sam.

"Well.. The picture your seeing was my Great grandmother and Grandfather, my Great grandmother has a disorder of some kind, probably traumatic, she'd always talk about how beautiful Celestia is, and keeps pushing me on complimenting her.. Like seriously I doubt she'd see Celestia or Luna at all."

"Well, I guess you can say is she's a fan." Uncle Sam smiled and chuckled.

"Heh, I guess you could say.."

"By the way, I know your Great Grandfather.. He was sent on the mission with General Patton."

"Really? What's his rank?" I asked.

"Armor Captain, his name is Canter Yates, I can assume that he's your Great Grandfather?" Uncle Sam guessed.

"Yea, how do you know?" I asked.

"Heh, what if I was to say that me and him were partners just like you and I. Of course he never liked being cooped up in the old White House and run errands, in fact he preferred that he served in the Armor Corps. So I setted him up for a Lieutenant position and let me tell you, he ended the Crystal war quick since then. Heh, sometimes I missed the man.. But I guess if we found the Crystal city we can find him." Uncle Sam explained smiling at the Lieutenant.

"Say.. I never catched your real name Lieutenant, I know that your middle name is Justin, and your last name is Yates, but what's your actual name?" Uncle Sam questioned, I wasn't really much the type of person to answer that question but... That's Uncle flipping Samuel Wilson so of course I should answer.. But how am I going to answer? Perhaps if I say it fast and don't say it again he won't bother asking.

"vader" I said quickly, but it seemed that he catched on to it..

"Vader...? Vader? Like griffonian for father Vader? That Vader?"

"That's all I'll tell.. I'm sorry but I don't like providing my name."

"No no sonny, it's just that.. The name actually sounds what you young folks now say nowadays. 'Cool' why hide it?" Uncle Sam asked.

I refused to answer it but that'll just be like lying to a powerful being, of course I'm gonna have to answer that..

"I-"

"SIR! WE HAVE RADIO FREQUENCIES SPIKING UP!!" Shouted a pilot, which frightened the crew, Uncle Sam climbed towards the copit.

"What're they saying sonny!" Uncle Sam asked.

"Hold on sir! It's Morse code, lemme try to translate it." The pilot said, clicking switches on the top.

After flicking the last switch the Morse code started printing into letters and sentences as the co-pilot tear the paper out of the side printer and read.

"S.O.S. This is the 34th company requesting assistance, if anyone is out there we are in need of support, I repeat, we're under attack. Our location is the Crystal city at longitude 34, latitude 26."

"That's Patton! Quick! We got to speed up as fast as we can before something else happens that fucks us over! NOW!"

"This is Hawkeye 0-2 all copters diverge all power to engines, full speed and fast forward!"

"Copy Hawkeye 0-2, engaging power diverge to speed modules and propellers."

The helicopters sped up into a swift speed of wind which pissed me off all of a sudden.

"WE'VE BEEN SLOW THIS ENTIRE TIME!" I shouted.

"WHY YES! HOW CAN YOU TELL?" Uncle Sam replied, with a lenny like facial expression. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

After 26 revolver rounds shot at Sombra Patton was now down to his last two rounds.

"THIS THING WON'T KNOW WHEN TO DIE DOES IT!"

"It's not going to work, only the Crystal Heart can-"

"OH YEA! CRYSTAL HEART THIS, CRYSTAL HEART THERE, CRYSTAL HEART MY ASS! WHERE THE FUCK IS THE CRYSTAL HEART THEN!"

"Up here! I got the Crystal Heart!" Yelled Spike, as the 4 of the mane 6 (Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Applejack) and Cadence and Shining Armor looked up in shock.

Patton looked up and was surprised but at the same time satisfied.

"ABOUT TIME! HEY DRAGON! KEEP YOUR GRIPS ON IT! I'M SENDING SOMEONE TO GET YOU DOWN FROM THERE!" Shouted Patton, grabbing his radio and spoke.

"Get the marines back up here now! Spike has the Crystal heart and we have to secure i-"

Suddenly a black Crystal knocked Spike off his feet and started free falling to the ground shocking the hell out of everyone as Sombra formed a Black Crystal to reclaim his prize treasure.

"I̵̙̫̓̊̋̎̿̇̎̕͠͝T̸͕͖̰͖̣͆̍̏̏͌̾̑͐'̸̧͉̤́̀̿Ș̷̓ ̶̥̩̰̳̟͍̗̘̙͛̚ͅM̶̢̺̞͕̤̝̓̋̾̂͌͂͜I̴̢̦̙̼͙̼̋̀́̏̓̏̽͆͌͘N̴̛̞̫̟̝͇̻̳͎̳̓͊̈́̈́̌̓͝E̶̳͔̒̀̄̋" Shouted the Shadow creature.

"Do you see him yet!?" Asked a soldier as he looked through binoculars when he spotted a huge black crystal pillar reaching a purple dragon.

"I SEE HIM! BE READY TO FIRE ON MY MARK!" Shouted the soldier.

The cannon raised it's barrel and pointed towards the rising pillar heading towards spike when other black crystals started to surround the Self-Propelled Artillary.

"SHIT! THESE CRYSTALS ARE GETTING ALL OVER THE PLACE! YOU GOT ONE SHOT AT THIS GERALD!" Shouted Linan, as Gerald looked through the aiming scope.

"EAT THIS MOTHER FUCKER!"

As the sound of the canon fired ranged out, the crystals that surrounded them shattered, and as for the shell, it zoomed right towards the pillar created by Sombra and as he motionlessly watch as the Shell breached he realized, he picked the wrong house.

As the shell smashed through it exploded upon impact shattering Sombra's crystal pillar and straightway towards Spike came Cadence who swooped in and saved Spike in time.

As for Sombra... He landed on the crystals and was severely injured which then Patton, who happened to have walk down the thousands of stair cases, came towards Sombra with a smirk.

"Not so tough now huh? Boys? Show him what happens when you cursed innocent lives in a city for a thousand years."

Sombra got up and saw a group of Human soldiers grinning and smirking.

"With pleasure." One said, cracking his knuckles.

"STAND BACK! I'LL- I'LL KILL YOU A-"

*WHACK!*

As the group of soldiers started a all out beat down on the former shadow king, Cadence flew down to the center of the castle and placed the Crystal Heart on the podium.

"The Crystal Heart has returned! Use the love within you to power it to ensure Sombra does not rule you no more!" Cadence spoke, as the Crystal ponies bowed to the heart, charging it up which sent shockwaves across the known lands.

Sombra is vaporized.

"Awww... I was gonna use a flamethrower :(" Said one soldier.

The fleet of helicopters was now at the tundra zone when the shockwave of love power swept over them.

I was a bit weirded out from that though while it wasn't that important, but worth mentioning.

As the defeat of Sombra occurred Yuri the whole time reached the bottom of the stairs only to find two doors.

"Hmm.. Eeny meeny miny moe catch a capitolist by his giant nasty cash toe... Bingo.. The one without the Crystal, nice try you wretched ponies, you may have a crystal but I know when to not fall for a nightmare door." Yuri prided, as he opened the door that lead to a room with a desk, library, and a... A...

"THERE IT IS! AHAHAHAHA! COME TO YURI!"

He smashed the glass casing and grabbed the staff of Luther, he felt it's disabled power, but that's because only a Luther family member can wield such power.. A power to create continents and destroy them...

"HEY!" Shouted a feminine voice, as Yuri turned towards a Cyan Pegasus who was following him the whole time.

"Oh. You scared me, I thought you were one of those capitolist Americans, or it'd be really a scare." Yuri insulted.

Put that back! Or I'll-

"Or what? Hit yourself?" Yuri smirked.

"What- OUCH! HEY! LEFT HOOF WHAT ARE YOU- OOF!-"

After forcing Rainbow Dashes hoof to punch her off the ground Yuri ran past her in a fast pace with the Staff when Rainbow dash kept her hoof down and flew after Yuri.

Yuri looked behind him and spoken.

"If you like so much of yourself? Then how come your punching yourself!"

"What!? I ain- oh no NOT AGAIN!"

Both of Rainbow Dashes hooves started punching her in the face, making her lose her speed and flight giving Yuri time to escape from the Cyan pegasus. After reaching the top he looked down and chuckled at the Rainbow maned pegasus biting on her own hooves.

"I'd like to play comrade pony, but I have a date to attend to, Dasvidaniya!"

"HUH?! HEY UNCOOL! GET BACK HERE!" Shouted Rainbow dash as Yuri ran from the hole in the Throne room.

Rainbow Dash flew up and bumped into Twilight who was speaking to her brother about the secret room.

"Rainbow Dash? What's wrong?" Asked Twilight.

"No time to explain! That guy stole something that doesn't belong to him!" Rainbow Dash briefly explained, when a vase shattered on the floor revealing Yuri's hiding spot which Shining Armor, Twilight, and Rainbow Dash cornered him.

"Welp, I didn't really want to do this but it seems you left me in a tough spot and hey, since you have friends... I like to show you my friends." Chuckled Yuri, as the sounds of Helicopter blades can be heard.

"Is that-"

"GET DOWN!" Shouted Shining Armor, ducking on his sister and her friend as a hellfire missile blew a hole in the castle wall, revealing a MI-8 transport helicopter loaded with Pony and Human Airborne soldiers.

Yuri got up and dusted himself and the staff, he looked at the pony pile which they started to get back up. Yuri turned his back to them and spoke in the radio.

"Meet at point Alpha. Oh.. And deploy the men, I always wanted to see what a Unicorn can fare against rifles." He ordered, as the Soviet MI-8 Helicopter went to the outskirts and begun landing itself on the ground, while at the same time unloading the Airborne soldiers off the helicopter.

"Feel free to chase me if you like, it'll make my day even more fun." Yuri chuckled, as he jumped out of the hole.

Twilight and Rainbow Dash looked down and saw Yuri running from the castle.

"C'mon Rainbow Dash, we've got to stop him!" Twilight said determined which Rainbow Dash nodded.

"Count me in Twily!" Shining Armor smiled at his sister.

Twilight and Rainbow dash looked at each other and the trio ran after Yuri.

Yuri meanwhile was still running towards the Helicopter when a Orange Pony stopped in front of him with a lasso, followed by Rarity and Spike, and then Fluttershy with a pack of wild animals cornering him..

"Wait a second.. I've heard of you 6.. But where's pink one?" Asked Yuri when he heard a pony clear her throat.

"SURPRISE ATTACK!" Shouted Pinkie as her party cannon fired confetti on Yuri's eyes causing him to drop the staff.

"AHGGH! BLYAT! ENOUGH GAMES!" Shouted Yuri, while getting up and ran to grab the staff before it was snatched by Twilight's magic.

Yuri looked at the staff hovering by Twilight who was staring at Yuri angerly in which the MP took positions and Patton grabbed a Microphone.

"Attention bastard! Surrender now or eat... (My lord who wrote this?) Feathers..." Patton yelled.

Yuri chuckled as gunshots ranged throughout the entire city with Airborne soldiers shooting at the sky to clear the crowds that ran in panic as they took positions behind the barriers and buildings pointing their weapons at the American soldiers, who also pointed theirs at the Green suited men who are behind Yuri. Following the Americans came a GMC tank destroyer that rolled in and pointed its turret at the Rodinian men.

Both sides goes on a stand off before they can hear a song appear from the mountains...

A fleet of Huey's arrived and landed on the city soil.

"GO GO GO! MOVE IT YOU BASTARDS!" Shouted Uncle Sam, as I grabbed my M4A1 rifle and followed of the rest of the deploying soldiers.

General Patton looked pale and shocked when he sees a fleet of green flying helicopters landed with troops towards his aid as the American troops reinforced Patton's soldiers and pointed at the green Airborne soldiers.

Uncle Sam stepped off the Huey with a radio and shouted.

"IF YOU WANT TO LIVE, GET THE HELL OUT OF EQUESTRIA!" Shouted Uncle Sam.

"And if we don't? You know... If you kill us you've basically just started a continental war." Yuri spoke.

"Maybe so! But what of your men hm?" Uncle Sam asked, as the Airborne soldiers behind Yuri started running towards the MI-8 helicopter that had it's propeller activated, angering Yuri as he turned towards the old man.

"DAMN YOU SAMUEL WILSON! MARK MY WORDS YOU WILL PAY FOR HUMILIATING ME LIKE THIS! AND YOU! YOU SIX PONIES! JUST MADE A LONG TIME ENEMY! WITH THE GREAT AND POWERFUL YURI! AND I'LL SEE TO IT THAT YOUR SUFFERING IS IMMINENT!" Shouted Yuri, as he ran towards the MI-8 helicopter and climbed on board just as it tooked off from the grass.

The men were relieved.

"I wonder where I heard that before..." Twilight said, referencing to a certain blue unicorn wizard.

Cadence landed beside her husband in which the two embraced each other.

Patton meanwhile turned towards Uncle Sam in a neutral expression.

"General Patton.." Uncle Sam spoke.

"Uncle Samuel Wilson, it's been a long time ey? What's changed." Patton asked.

"A lot..."

"Well.. I guess a thousand years can do that to some people.." Patton replied.

Uncle Sam frowned.

"Unfortunately most of everyone had presumed you dead Patton.. But you can change that and come home to us." Uncle Sam offered, showing his hand. But Patton knew what would happen if he accepts this.

"No.. I don't think I will accept that, if it's true that everyone around me is presumed dead other than the ponies here... Then I prefer that perhaps we're better off as defenders of this city." Patton smirked, which shocked the ponies but not the human soldiers as it was no surprise.

"I'm not surprised at your stubbornness Patton, but I'd like to ask one thing.."

As the two talked I was looking for Canter when I bumped into a person in the crowd of men.

"Sorry"
"Sorry"

I dropped my picture and the man I bumped into picked it up.

"I'm sorry about that sir." I apologized.

"It's fine.. I."

The person paused and looked at the picture with a shocked expression and then looked at me.

"Where did you get this picture from..." Asked Canter.

"Great Grandpa Canter? Is that you?" I asked, which Canter's eyes widened.

"Great? Did you say Great Grandpa?" He asked.

"I did.. I came with Uncle Sam.. To bring you home, I heard you were in this assualt. I came here to-"

Suddenly Canter grabbed my should and smirked.

"Listen.. Great Grandson.. It's weird but I just want to know.. Is Meagan ok?" He asked.

"Of course, Great Grandma Meagan is healthy!" I replied, which he started to tear up.

"Then tell her.. I love her with all my heart.. Tell her this.. And if you see your Grandparents... My children.. Tell them no matter what.. You did great... And I love you for that... Tell them this.. Great Grandchild." Canter smiled, and we both embraced each other in a familial hug.

The Colonel Gulped as he stepped on the stage where Macarthur smirked.

"Do I have to General?"

"You love your job right Colonel?" Macarthur reminded.

"Right.. No going back then." Replied the Colonel.

He stepped up the Podium and looked at the tank men, engineers, and medics who're sitting on the chairs waiting for the special announcement that was called by the intercom as the Colonel cleared his throat.

"Good day, Gentlemen, and Colts, today I like to announce the full fledge first time in American history that a pony had became the first officer since the American civilwar in 57, today I like to announce the first pony. Gold Star. Please step up, and you give him a applause." The Colonel said shortly, as the men clapped.

A tan stallion pony walked up the podium, with a pure tan fur coating, Brown Unshorn fetlock hooves, brown mane, and had a decently brown formal uniform as he took up the podium and spoke.

"Greetings."

After being dropped off to a Hotel room in Vanhoover, home of the Equestria Socialist, he was reading a news paper regarding the incident of the Crystal city and how his name was butchered. And that a new Human-Pony Crystal city division was formed as the first mix species division. He snarled at the picture of the mane 6 when a pony stallion knocked at the door and slipped a envelope inside of Yuri's room.

Yuri got up from the bed and picked up the letter, it had the Red Mother's hand writing.

"Let's see what plan B is mother.." He said, as he opened the envelope and looked at the file within it.

He looked at the picture and quickly grabbed the news paper to see the same face in the picture.

"Hehehe.. AHAHAHAHAHA!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! So... Mr. Yates... Let's see what you got."

Said Yuri, as he cleared his desk.. And started planning...
