In the year 2836, pony kind had progressed in unimaginable ways. They have created their first spaceship, and created an anti-oldness chip. Because of this Twilight and her friends are all well over 1642 years old. Having finally made contact with an alien race, Empress Celestia had an idea...

"Dear Twilight Sparkle

I've been busy in Canterlot with some political problems. And this time, that is why I need your help.

We've made contact with a new alien race, but we don't have an ambassador.

We need you to go up to their planet using the spaceship I've glued to the letter. I have complete and utter confidence in your abilities as an negotiator.

Your Galactic Empress,

Celestia."

Using the spaceship found inside the envelope, Twilight went in space, with her friends, to the alien planet.

Almost arriving to their star vessel station, Twilight had a thought : 'These species are clearly inferior to us ponies. Maybe I should enslave them and sell them to ponies back on our planet. It could improve Equestria greatly, sending us into a new era of glory!'

Having landed, the mechanical aliens known as Berghs greeted them, "Salutations, ponies of Equestria. I hope you are ready to negotiate the peace treaty between our race."

"Why yes, of course!" said Twilight, faking a smile.

"Good. Then, let's proceed."

Arriving in their Political Room, both parties sat down on comfortable chairs. During the time it took for her to sit down, Twilight thought of an ingenious plan.

"So, pony of Equestria, what are your terms?" demanded the Bergh politician

Of course, Twilight had it all planned out, "I just wish for us to coexist in harmony : us as master, and you as our slaves."

"This is madness! You've just declared war on us, ponies of Ponyland!" yelled the Bergh, taking out their phaser, on the stun setting.

Twilight smirked, "Oh I am quite aware of that. Commander Dash, beam us back to the ship immediately."

"Huh, Captain, I cannot do such thing, since I, and the rest of the crew are not the ship." said Dash.

Twilight's smirk grew wider, "Well then...it seems we'll have to 'blast' our way out."

Dash became more and more worried, "We also let all of our weapons on board, Captain."

"...Hum...dear Berghs, it seem we have started with a rather bad impression. Why don't we start over?" said Twilight ,desperate.

"I'm afraid the damage has already been done, ponies of Maretown. Prepare to be assimilated!"

Twilight was completely desperate at this point, "If we give you...COOKIES! Yes, cookies! Then, will you be our slaves?"

"...You've got a deal."

                                                                                 --Back on the ship--

Commander Dash was confused. "Captain? If you don't mind me asking: didn't you just violate Empress Celestia's orders by enslaving a whole alien race?"

"...There are times, Commander, when mares with good conscience cannot blindly follow orders." said Twilight, her voice filled with inspiration.

"That doesn't make any sense, also you're dreaming right now."

"I know Commander...I know."

"WAKE UP!" Spike yelled.
