"Sir, the enemy is retreating we don't have any casualties!" The Lt. reported to his German superior.
"Good. Alright men! Let's get back to our what-to-do basis!" With a lot of 'Yes sir', the Panzers got back to their regular positions, while Rommel and some men got back to the FOB.
-Canterlot Castle-
Canterlot Castle is a castle that should be described by one word: magnificent. Resting in a mountain, the castle itself overlooks the town of Ponyville while it's breathtaking view would awe it's citizens. It's home of the Royal Sisters, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. They stopped the 'turtles' from harming the elements, and sends in a scout team to look for those potential threats.
"Tia, are you sure this is a wise decision? You already know what they are capable of in first hoof right?" Luna asked her older sister and Sun Goddess, Celestia.
"I don't know if it's a wise decision Lulu. But, if those 'turtles' got to harm our little ponies, then we have no choice." Tia replied to her answer. As a cue, a guards pony came in and said:
"Sorry princesses, but Captain Shining Armor is here. He wishes to report something."
"Alright, let him in." The huge throne room doors, and Shining Armor, Twilight's brother, came in.
"Hello there your majesties." Shining formally said.
"Hello there Shining Armor. What will you report to us today?" Celestia asked the Royal Guard Captain.
"Well, me and my men got to the scouting mission as you commanded. However, a 'turtle' got to us in relatively medium speed, circling us about. We decided to chase it, but when we got super close, other 'turtles' popped out and started belching 'fire and smoke'. However, the fire didn't reach my men, rather, something hit my men, killing them with precise accuracy. With a heavy heart, I ordered a retreat, but the 'turtles' didn't chase us." Shining reported.
"Well then, this is kind of odd. Normally turtles don't give off 'fire and smoke', could go medium speeds and having to hit the enemy with the 'fire' not to hit our guards. It's very mysterious." Luna noted.
"What's your proposal princess?" Shining asked the princess.
"I don't know yet, but if your request a quick solution, usually an attack, it might be possible. However, we must visit the 'turtles' to have a a word with their ruler." Celestia replied.
"But princess-" But Shining was cut off by Luna's voice.
"Sorry captain, but we need to visit them before making any comprehensions."
"Yes your majesty." And with that, Shining left the room, leaving the princesses.
"Tia, is this an okay decision?" Luna asked her sister.
"I do hope so Lulu. I pray that it won't go off to the worst."
-Afrika Korps-
"Hey Erwin! So your planning to have a 'visit' with them before stating into an act of invasion?" The Lt. asked his superior.
"Yes Lt. I will lead 'Operation: Visitation' just to observe the behavior of the citizens. If it's on deadly status, then we will go on to full force tactics." Rommel replied.
"Well then, you must better get moving." The Lt. said.
"Your right." After saying that, Rommel got out of the FOB Tent and hoped in into his respective vehicle, Panzer 098. Before going off, he said to his Lt.:
"Protect this base from anyone or anybody not part of the Afrika Korps."
"Yes Rommel. I would not fail." The Lt. replied.
"I know you won't." Rommel, with some Panzers to have 'Operation: Visitation' ready to set forth. Rommel and his team rolled out to the north, into the direction of Ponyville and Canterlot.
-Mane 6 Perspective-
"Ah can't believe those turtles would hurt us!" Applejack exclaimed in rage.
"Me too. However, there's something odd about those turtles." Fluttershy said.
"Then what is it?" Rainbow Dash asked her.
"Well the only thing that bothers me is that those turtles had reasonable speeds, while normal turtles come in slow. Also, turtles don't belch out fire and smoke. It's something off." Fluttershy replied to her pegasus companion.
"She's right. It's no other turtles I know." Twilight noted. However, a voice piped up and said:
"THE TURTLES ARE BACK!" The Mane 6 scanned the their up-coming surroundings, and indeed they could see the same 'turtles'. However, they could see that these 'turtles' are having some kind of spinning 'feet' to move.
'What are these turtles?' Twilight asked herself as she observed the 'turtles' more closely. On the front, was a mark. A cutie mark perhaps. It was a symbol of a tree and a distorted something.
'What kind of cutie mark is that?' Twilight asked herself again as she and her friends looked at the direction the 'turtles' are heading. Being eight of them, they are supposedly moving towards....
'Canterlot!' She exclaimed as the 'turtles' bypassed them, heading towards the Capital of Equestria.
-Luna's Chamber-
Luna, being the Princess of the Night, is now sleeping more so for she is now tired for the time being, weary of what she does in the night. However, noises coming from the direction of Ponyville got her jolting out of bed.
'What in...Can somepony give the Princess of the Night a good night sleep.' She exclaimed calmly at her head at she trotted to the balcony, where her observing telescope still there. Observing the horizon, she could see a cloud of dust, kicked by somepony who is angry. She got to her telescope, she could see an enormous cloud of dust kicked by the....'turtles'.
'Oh buck.' She cursed in her thoughts as she flew towards her sisters personal chamber, which is on the other direction of her own chamber.
