"Well, Ah'm Applejack, pleased ta meet ya!"

The orange pony, with a blonder than the sun mane, wearing a stetson and having three apples as a cutiemark beckoned to herself.
I simply took her hoof and gave it a good shake. "Likewise."

"WellI'mPinkiePieandohmygoshwehaven'tgotyouawelcometoequestriaparty!ohmygoshhowcouldIforget!"

The mare simply wouldn't sit still, she kept bouncing up and down like a pink piston. I just decided to go along with it.

"Nice, I'll try."

The mare just simply stopped in midair with a confused look on her face. I turned to the next pony in line, a stark white mare with a lovely purple hued mane and tail.

"Well, dear, I am Rarity, owner of the Carousel Boutique, a name you'll become very familiar with, I'm sure."

I simply bowed my head, and turned to a lavender, apparently Princess pony. She was eyeing my armor and weapons with a curious eye. Scanning over every detail.

"Hmmm....Fascinating technology, though I have no idea how it works. I'll have to...Obtain...A sample for study."

"We can hear you, you know."

The Princess shot up from her observations with a sheepish smile, like she got caught with her hooves in the cookie jar.

"Oh, well, I'm Princess Twilight Sparkle. That over there is Rainbow Dash, you already met her. Now, who are you?"

My cousin and i shared a look before turning back to the ponies, through that quick glance, we decided it would be best to use our abbreviated names, instead of our full ones. 

"I'm T" I gestured to myself before swinging my hand to my cousin. "And this is M."

"Your real names please, not your nicknames."

"We're T and M, That's all you need to know."

This got a visible reaction from the princess, as her eye twitched and her jawline set. She looked like she was going to protest further until a bright flash of light interrupted her. When the light subsided, there appeared to be another Princess, due to the facts of both wings and a horn, her coat was midnight blue, while her mane was filled with stars and flowed in the wind.
Her crown and necklace were made of a silvery substance with black onyx's set in them. What caught my attention though, was the pissed look on her face.

"DEAREST TWILIGHT SPARKLE, WE RECEIVED THY CALL FOR AID AND HAVE ANSWERED PERSONALLY, THIS BEAST WILL KNOW THE FURY OF THE MOON!"

Before I even knew what happened, the Princess tackled me to the ground, throwing up dirt and debris everywhere. I regained enough of my senses to block what looked like a wickedly curved scythe before it skewered my head on its downward swipe.
My instincts kicked in and while she struggled against my strength, I brought a boot up and planted it firmly into her stomach, sending her flying into some buildings, resulting in even more debris and destruction. When she climbed out of the rubble, she was sent flying to the side as M's fist impacted with her face. Taking my chance, I drew my power-sword and charged, yelling the most terrifying war-cry that came to mind, amplified by the vox, it shook windows and doors.

The Princess barely recovered in time to swing her scythe into my oncoming blade, the two blades clashing in a cascade of sparks. She stared into me with every ounce of fury she had. I met her gaze with every ounce of Anger I could muster.
She shifted her scythe, so as to get more leverage, and that was her mistake. Taking advantage of the now open defense, I pushed my blade to the side, carrying hers with it, and causing her to stumble. I wasted no time as I brought up my knee and smashed it into her chest. She uttered a cry as I felt her sternum flex with the blow. She was thrown back, landing on back then flipping over on her stomach. A clatter told me that her scythe had fallen away from her.
As I approached her fallen body, she gave me the ultimate glare of hate and suffering. She closed her eyes shut, tears streaking from them. "Do it." She muttered as I brought my sword high above my head, both of my arms flexing to give me the power needed. When I felt enough, I brought the blade down as hard as I could, I felt it go through something soft and stick in a stone beneath the ground.

Right beside her head.

She blinked in surprise at my mercy. Even more so, when i hauled her to her feet. Tears streaked their way down her face as she muttered something. "Why?"

"Because, when your subjects needed help, you pulled through for them, where I come from, nearly no leader would ever do that. Losing you would only worsen this place."

She released some more tears and a smile as I brought her to her feet. She surprised me by wrapping me in a tight hug, one that I felt underneath all the armor.

"I thank you, creature, but pray tell, what is thy name."

"The name's T, and that one over there is M."

"You mean the one currently holding down a certain Rainbow Pegasus?"

I looked back to find my cousin holding down Rainbow Dash with her forelegs placed behind her back and her muzzle into the ground.

"Yep that's him."

After a few minutes of cursing, hitting, and struggling, M was pried off Rainbow, leaving the two to give evil glares at eachother.
I decided to voice some concerns of mine. Like our stay being their work and any way of money we could take advantage of.

"So, why did you bring us here, with all this awesome stuff, if you were just going to attack us?"

The Princess gave a strange look, as if surprised at my question.

"But we did not bring you-"

"Oh no, she didn't, but I did." A strange voice, male in origin, giddily laughed as it spoke. There was a bright flash of light as a being materialized out of thin air. The body was long and wiry, covered in fur. The limbs were an assortment of creatures and it's eye's were yellow with devilishness. He, of which I assumed a he, based on the voice. He settled on the grass, conjured up a bowl of soup, drank the bowl, leaving the noodles to fill up with bowl soup. I watched this creature intently, summing up his form and his apparent chaotic powers. After he finished with his bowl's, he watched us just as intently.
I decided to embrace this creature as a friend. I stuck my hand out, getting a gleeful and shock filled response.
I decided to run introductions between us.

"So, I'm T and this is M. I am aware that you brought us here, may I inquire as to why?"

He sighed and assumed a relatively sad posture, his eyes looking hopeless.

"Well, I'm Discord, the spirit of chaos, the fun kind, not that other kind. Anyways, I brought you and your cousin here for a good reason. You see, there is a terrible crisis on the rise, and I am losing my power to it. No, I'm serious, this is the kind of, Mass War, situation. Yet, until this new enemy shows itself, I have no idea as to who. So who else to bring in but the best! Oh, you'll have so much fun discovering the little gifts I put into your DNA! Though, as a favor, I have enough power to bring in one more thing from any universe. You can trade one object for another, but that's it."

I turned to M, my hand reaching my helmet's chin in thought. "M, what do you think of this? You've been awfully quiet, plus, if we trade something, we'll each get something of our own."

M pulled his own hand to his chin in thought. His fingers scaling back and forth across the metallic surface. He eventually shrugged in a 'Shit sounds cool to me.' Manner.

"Well, I like to pilot stuff, so......I'll trade in the Hornet, seeing as T can't fit in it. So I'll trade it for a Pelican, outfitted for full combat pursuit. So I can drop him off but still bring the hurt."

Discord raised his claw up and snapped his fingers. The Hornet glowed a bright yellow, then it disintegrated into a fine mist that flew out of the Mammoth and onto the ground, only to be reshaped in the form of a Pelican, it's black and red hull and many guns shining with brilliance.
I raised my hand and motioned to me.

"Okay, my turn." I looked back to the Mammoth, in all its glory, it was severely undermanned, along with us, if we were to combat this threat, we would need forces.

"Okay Discord my friend. I would love to have about..say...Hundred or so Terran Marines, all volunteers, no convicts, all Loyal to me and M. Do you think you can do that, eh pal?"

Discord responded by furrowing his brow in concentration, hie claws emitting a yellow aura. After a few seconds, a hundred Terran marines walked straight up to T, their armor black and red and their visors a golden color. Their guns and pistols were a matte black with a glossy finish.They all stood about as tall as M, though a foot shorter than T. One with a red visor and a screaming skull etched into it, rested his rifle on his hip and spoke a few simple words.

"What needs done, Boss?"

The ponies around them however, looked on in pure astonishment at the display of tech and magic. One seagreen pony was nearly puking on the floor in excitement.

I turned and looked to Luna, my helmet bearing a gaze that pierced her living being.

"Now, let's go see that sister of yours."

Luna twiddled her hooves nervously. "Well, in order to have an audience with Celestia, one has to be either an Equestrian citizen, a delegate, diplomat, or a leader of a Nation."

I turned to M, our helmeted faces meeting in a brief train of thought. We both nodded and turned back to the Princess.
I unsheathed my sword and stuck it to the sky. My words yelled out in ferocity, so much, as to shake the windows in their place.

"Then we are the Emperor's of the Confederate Empire!"
