World War 2: Never Surrender

Canterlot City 1941 POV: Captain of the Guard, Shining Armor

Ever since that strange light that had erupted in the sky occurred nothing had been the same. Our nation was now in the middle of a ocean. The nobility and public alike were demanding answers from our princesses, but even they seemed completely stumped by what had happened. At first we had thought all the land around us had flooded, and somehow we had stayed afloat. That theory was disproved when Princesses Celestia and Luna realized they could not move the sun or the moon, and that the sun and moon were moving on their own. I was patrolling the city when a frantic looking guard from the gate ran strait into me.

"What's wrong soldier," I said, "why are you not at your post at the gate?"

"S...Sir!" the guard shouted frantically panting and sweating as though he had run a marathon, "there are weird two-legged things in grey with long black sticks, and they demand to speak with the princess."

"I will go talk to them," I said wondering who and what these creatures could be, "tell their leader to come into the city to talk with me."

"Yes, sir," the guard ran back to the gate.

In a few minutes he returned with a strange looking creature. It looked like a monkey just without hair except for a part of blond hair on its head covered by what looked to be a helmet. It had pale skin and was 5 feet tall at least. It indeed had grey clothes and a black cross on its chest. It had blue eyes that showed obvious intelligence.

"Hello," it said, " your people speak English I assume."

"You mean Equestrian?" I asked.

"No, I mean English," it responded shaking its head, "the language of the British and Americans."

"Who?" I asked.

"Never mind," it said, male by the sound of its voice it would seem, "I am Lieutenant-Admiral Heinz Ozbeik, though you may call me Heinz, of the German Kriegmarine.

"German?" I asked.

"Yes, German," Heinz said, "Germany is one of the countries in the continent of Europe. It is led by, my führer, Adolf Hitler."

"Your father runs your country," I asked curiously.

"No, führer," corrected Heinz, "it means leader in our language."

"Very well, you seem nice enough, I will let you see our leaders, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna."

"Why would you not introduce me to your queen?" said Heinz looking rather confused.

"We don't have a queen."

"...So you have a diarchy... that's a unique choice."

"Well follow me to the throne room."

Author's Note:

I will have all characters speak English. While unrealistic it just makes things easier especially when I would have to use Russian, Japanese, or any other language that takes to long to translate back and forth. In order to make things a little more realistic Stalin and some others will speak English poorly or just not speak it at all.

This is my first story. The Gore tag will take effect later in the story though it will be minor at most. Hope you enjoy.

Actually speaking English is a priority to most world leaders as English is the language of business and most used in politics.
Most Germans in that era of history studied at universities in America and learned English quit well. Some Germans learned English so all they would need to do is put on an American uniform and they would set up check points and road blocks to either rob American supplies or direct them to ambushes.
