          McGee soon knows what's going on. He knows that it's happening right now. So, he runs up the stairs as quick as he could to wake his wife and son. He went into their bedroom and wake his wife up.

"Carla, wake up! Wake up!" said McGee while shaking her to wake her up.

Carla woke up at the calls of her husband. She was a bit mad that he woke her up 2 in the morning.

"Uuh, what is it, honey?" asked Carla in a sleepy mood.

She was scared as she saw McGee taking out his 9mm pistol and phone from the drawer. Then she realized there were sounds coming from outside. She took a peek through the curtain and she only saw army trucks and thousands of soldiers evacuating everybody from their houses.

"Mommy, daddy, why is it so noisy outside?" Timmy woke up by the noise outside since his room is at the end of the first floor hall.

"Timmy, bad things are going to happen if we stay here longer. Pack necessary things only,"

Then, someone outside is knocking at the front door. McGee ran down the stairs and open the front door and 2 soldiers stand in front of him.

"Mister, you need to leave Dashville immediately. It's too dangerous for you to be here," said one of the soldiers.

Carla came downstairs with her son and their backpacks. She wanted to ask the soldier what's going on outside but interrupted by gunfire outside.

"Carla! Timmy! Stand back!!!" shouted McGee.

Gunfire everywhere, mostly shooting at soldiers and some hittng the house. McGee ordered his family to escape through the backdoor and go to the front once the situation calms down. The enemy soldiers blasted through the door and McGee tried to stall them with his 9mm pistol. He gave 4 shots, killing both of the enemy soldiers. He ran to the backyard with a bullet wound to his shoulder.

"McGee, you're shot!" exclaimed Carla.

"It's nothing. I'm fine," McGee said, not admitting he can't shoot and carry his son at the same time with a bullet wound to the shoulder.

McGee continued to cross the once chaotic shootout that happened out here to a silent and body-filled road. McGee took a left and right pan to check if there's any soldiers around.

"Okay, the coast is clear," said McGee.

They cross the street with caution and make a run on it. More enemy soldiers came in afterwards and shoot at McGee's direction. They run in to the forest the moment the soldiers blasted their guns.

               After running, McGee and his family found an abandoned village not far from the city. McGee put his son down and call his wife.

"McGee..." Carla's voice was a bit faint.

McGee was shocked to see red liquid coming from her hip.

"Carla, no, NOOOO!" McGee catched her before she fell on the ground.

"Carla, please, please, nonononnononnono," McGee tried to stop the bleeding but it was not working.

Timmy know's that his mother has been shot and cried tears down his cheeks. McGee is far more worse. He has a bullet wound to the shoulder, needs to take care of his son and his wife is now shot in the hip. Carla gave her last dying breath.

"Carla, no-oooo-ooo! *SNIFF* " McGee hugged her body for the last time.

Screaming and shouting came from the forest that shouted McGee's name. Apparently, it was Carlos and he has the same idea and ran to the forest. Timmy spotted them before his dad did. Carlos and his family managed to find McGee in the same abandoned village. He saw McGee, kneeling and crying while holding a dead body of a woman. Juliet and Jimmy then came in and saw the same thing. Timmy ran and hugged Carlos, crying on his shirt. Just imagine, a kid witnessing his mother die in front of him.

"Take care of Tim." ordered Carlos so he could go and calm McGee down.

"Hey (Puts hand on McGee's shoulder), bro. I'm. . . really sorry," said Carlos, holding his tears back.

    They found a shovel in one of the houses and dig a hole in the ground somewhere near a fence. McGee took Carla's body and put it in the dirt hole, along with his locket. After the burial, they continued their journey to find a safezone somewhere, elsewhere. They didn't care about the abandoned village nor they'd care about McGee's wound. Carlos tried to heal his wound but he kept refusing, so they just ignore the wound, hoping that McGee will treat it himself.

      King Eclipsor and his pony friends evacuated the village once they see the jets flying through the air. Not only one, but all of the ponies felt something bad's going to happen. So all of them decided to leave their village and go set up somewhere else. The ponies are smart, they planned their evacuation to go south, away from human civilization.

"Okay everypony, we're heading south. We're following the forest so, stay together and don't get lost," shouted General Sword Clasher.

Queen Stella and King Eclipsor are going to keep a closer eye on Celestia, since they're travelling through the forest. King Eclipsor is relieved that his daughter is safe and feel thankful to those two human beings for not hurting her, but he still see's the human race the same way as dangerous and more advanced beings. They ventured south to their targeted location. It was silent throughout the journey besides jets that passes them overhead.

"So, did the humans did anything to Celestia?" asked Stella.

"Nope. They said they tried to help her to get her home but they don't know how to," Eclipsor knows Stella does not like them even more then him.

"What are we going to do with her? She'll just escape again like she used to," Eclipsor is worried that Celestia is going to escape from her crib when they get to their new home.

"Let's not worry that first, my king. What we need to worry is the forest and the humans. They are at war now and-" Stella was interrupted by a jet falling from the sky.

"MY QUEEN! WATCH OUT!!!" shouted the guard.

Both the king and queen escaped in time with Celestia in their hands. It was a miracle that nopony was injured.

They checked the wreckage for the pilot and see nothing, nobody was in there, but a stench of burning flesh and fuel made the ponies close their muzzles.

"Stella, are you ok?" asked Eclipsor.

"Yes, I'm fine" answered Stella.

Few minutes after the crash, more jets came flying in the air and shot at one another. The ponies ran away from the crash in a line. After that, they reached their destination. It was peaceful and quiet, not like what happened earlier. The place was perfect and it was far away from civilization. The ponies quickly set there as their new home and lived peacefully, until one day...
