Star Wars: Rise of the Equestrian Alliance

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away

With the fall of Empire and the rise of the Equestrian Alliance. Twilight Sparkles, a Jedi Padawan, who has to fight off the memories of the Empire. With the Empire attacking key planets, the Equestrian Alliance strikes back, with no end to the war in sight. Both side’s key commanders are planning to take more and more planets. As both sides fight over planets and land. The war has exhausted both sides of resources but. The Empire who has both numbers and skill in advantage, as does the Equestrian Alliance. With a battle over Vanat…

As a Venator Star Destoryer moved into place, it was quiet, the massive ship moved. But then two ETA-2 star fighters one purple the other black. The ETA-2’s flew into battle going into battle formation. Star Destoryers shot at the Venators, and Providence Carriers. ARC-170’s shot at TIE Fighters while TIE Interceptors attacked ARC-170’s V-wings. Then a Venator exploded as a proton beam was directed at it. The ETA-2s where piloted by Twilight and Dahn, as they flew. Twilight said “Master, Vader’s ship is ahead. The one swarmed with TIE Fighters and Interceptors. Twilight then said “All Squads begin attack.” The ARC-170’s attacked, and then a TIE Interceptor locked onto an ARC-170 shooting it down. Twilight looked and said “There’s a missile locked onto me.” As the missile flew closer and closer, Twilight looked around and flew in front of a TIE Fighter the missile hit the TIE.

Twilight and Dahn then flew into the hangar on the Executor. Stormtroopers surrounded the landed ships. Stormtrooper’s ripped open the canopy; they grabbed Dahn by his neck and threw him onto the ground. Twilight screamed, and turned on her engine. Boba Fett walked into the hangar, he walked towards Twilight’s ship, and then Vader landed in front of Twilight’s ship. Vader stood there, he heard a Star Destoryer explode. The Storm Trooper’s dragged Dahn into a room. Vader then looked at Twilight. Twilight looked at the now beaten face of Dahn, and then Boba Fett walked up to Dahn, and put his EE-3 to Dahn’s head. Twilight’s eyes widened and she screamed “NO!”

Vader nodded to Boba, Boba then pulled the trigger, and Dahn slumped over. He was dead, Twilight then said through her tears “Start up, already.” Her ETA-2 started up, she looked around, and she was being shot at Twilight turned her ETA-2 and shot a squad of stormtroopers. Twilight flew her ship out, as the ship escaped the hangar. Boba Fett walked onto the Slave 1 and said “Get me Dahn’s body I have an idea.”

Boba took off in the Slave 1, and followed Twilight; Twilight then said “I need some cover here.” Then a laser shot whizzed by Twilight’s cockpit. Then a wing got shot off, the Slave 1 hit Twilight. Twilight then screamed “I’m hit, I’m going down, I’m at coordinates mark 3, 12 point 6!” Twilight’s ship then flew into the atmosphere, her ship’s other wing exploded. As Twilight’s ship went through the atmosphere of Vanat, snow would hit her wind shield.

Twilight’s ship then crashed into the snow, the window exploded, and snow went into the vehicle. Twilight screamed as electricity popped out at her. Twilight dragged herself into the snow. Twilight was weakened; her body knew only one thing: pain. Twilight still dragged herself onward; the sound of gun fire was in the background. Mass murder, conflict, and hate. Twilight got up, she felt and found her lightsaber. Twilight then looked back; the sad sight of the ship, as it got buried under snow was a reminder of what would happen if Twilight died.

Gara and Boba Fett where discussing their family history, as Gara sat there in the Providence Class Carrier, she said “Well my, mother her name was Vhonte Tervho. Mom, was part of the infamous Cuy'val Dar, she met my father. I don’t remember my father, really because he wasn’t there. Story is my father got killed by a lightsaber, while my mom was pregnant with me. Around the rise of the Empire I was two, mom had gotten 50,000 dollars from one mission, my mom then dedicated some of that money to finding my father.” Boba sat there he had his helmet on. Boba then said “You’ve heard stories of my dad, and my possible thousands of nieces, and nephews.” Gara looked in the window, she hasn’t seen her mother for years, and her mother would be about 45-48 she forgot. Gara sat there, her hand was on her stomach.

Twilight was crawling through the snow. As she got closer to Vanat base, she heard gun fire and AT-AT fire. The blizzard was blinding, Twilight could see Sombra’s fortress in the distance. Then Twilight saw the Imperial infantry bunkers. Twilight crawled, towards the Equestrian Alliance side, she saw the crashed Providence Carrier, the flak cannons were firing, and the Empire had control of it.

Boba Fett was sitting on the Mandalorian Providence Class Carrier, his hologram receiver beeped, Fett turned around he didn’t have his helmet on, and he looked like his father. Boba put his helmet on, and answered the receiver. Vader appeared in his holographic form, Vader then said “I have a bounty for you, 50,000 credits, for Celestia.” Boba then said “It’s a deal, I’ll be there soon.” Boba walked to the Slave 1, and entered.

Boba Fett flew towards Vanat, and landed about a mile away from the base. Boba got out into the freezing cold. As Boba walked through the snow, he saw smoke and saw Twilight’s crashed ship. Boba continued walking through the snow, as he got closer. He saw the entrance bunker, there was little protection. Boba walked into the bunker. He then pulled out his EE-3, Boba walked through the hallways, and he saw nothing, Fett walked. He walked into the command. He heard Celestia’s voice, he then walked up, and he was on a catwalk over the command room. Then a door opened, and then Twilight crawled in, Boba turned around. Boba pointed his gun at Twilight, it clicked. Celestia looked up and saw Boba.

Celestia screamed “There he is! Shoot him!” Boba reloaded his EE-3, and shot at earth ponies, and Pegasi, he was a dead shot. Then the roof overhead, ripped off, an ARC-170 watched blew the roof off, it was Aramis’s ARC-170. Aramis, jumped out, Boba looked and saw Gara was in the back seat, flying the thing alone. Gara flew away, Boba thought to himself “That wouldn’t be healthy for her I think.” But in reality, Gara was using auto pilot.

Aramis, crouched down, he had new Westar-34s, Aramis shot several Pegasi, and then ducked into cover. Boba said “You get Celestia, no one else.” Aramis nodded, Aramis then jumped over the railing landed, and grabbed Celestia. Aramis took off using his jetpack. Boba did the same. Aramis shot at the Pegasi that were attempting to catch them. The Pegasi died, none of the Pegasi could hit Aramis without killing Celestia. They dragged Celestia back, and put her in the hold of the Slave 1. Boba took off in the Slave 1, while Aramis got into his ARC-170. As the two ships took off. But the Slave 1 flew over the Equestrian Alliance base, and opened the door, while the Slave 1 was hovering, Boba grabbed Dahn’s body, and chucked him into the Equestrian Alliance base’s command room, there was a note on Dahn’s back that said all the targets it read “Luna, Celestia, Shining Armor, Twilight Sparkles, Cadance, all the high command of the Equestrian Alliance.”

Boba Fett then landed on the Executor. As Fett got Celestia off, he got her into a holding cell. Vader then entered Celestia’s cell being followed by a Naval officer. Then an IT-O interrogation droid entered the prison cell. Vader then asked “Where are the other bases of the Equestrian Alliance?” Celestia spat on the ground and said “I shall never tell you.” Vader then watched as the IT-O injected Celestia with a mixture of OV600 and Bavo Six, Celestia then was asked “Where is the Equestrian Alliance Base?” Celestia then responded “Equestria, it’s on Equestria.” Then the Bavo Six and the OV600. Celestia’s skin broke out into a rash, she started getting paranoia, and she started seeing things. Celestia screamed in pain, Vader said “That’s enough for today.”

Boba then walked outside, and waited for Vader. Vader then came out of the cell, and said “You will next go to the Equestrian Alliance ship The Liberator, for me and get the info, do not kill any hostiles on board. Boba nodded, and said “I’ll get on it.” Boba got into the Slave 1

Twilight was on Vanat, getting a new ETA-2. Twilight took off in it, and flew towards the Executor; Boba Fett noticed the ETA-2 and notified Vader. Vader responded “Come back, I will need you then.” Boba landed the Slave 1; he got out and walked into the hallways, and got Celestia out. Twilight landed, and got out. Twilight was walking through the hallways, she looked to the right, and then got close to a wall, Boba Fett was walking by with Celestia, and Boba looked to the right, and kept on walking. Twilight sighed and walked into that hallway, and then Boba leaned from a corner, and shot at Twilight, Twilight screamed in shock. Boba then ran into the Engine room, and then entered a prison block. Twilight entered the engine room, and then she heard Vader’s breathing. Twilight turned around, Vader’s figure towered over her, and Vader ignited his saber. Twilight ignited hers too. They then dueled, Twilight and Vader fought. As they fought, they left the Engine room.

They dueled into the hallways, fighting without an end in sight. Vader then used the force to grab Twilight’s saber, and kept it. Twilight noticed Vader had Dahn’s saber on his belt, Twilight used the force to grab the saber from Vader. Then Twilight noticed they were above the hangar, Vader pushed Twilight onto the catwalk, and dueled her. Twilight noticed she couldn’t win, so Twilight jumped off.

Twilight landed next to her ship, she got onto the ETA-2 and took off. Twilight flew out of the hangar and to Vanat. Twilight landed in the Vanat base’s hangar. Twilight looked around, and sat there.

Vader stood there on the Executor and said “Enter light speed to Dekta, and set up there. We shall ambush them there.” An officer nodded and said “Sir we shall pull out our troops soon.” Vader responded “Yes start now.”

On the ground Snowtroopers where being evacuated. The wind was fierce, and the snow storm covered the evacuating Empire. The Battle of Dekta would begin soon.

The Jungle

Stormtroopers walked through the jungle, it was loud and hot. Stormtroopers dug trenches, and placed down bunkers. They walked through the jungle, with equipment. Stormtroopers looked around, and watched the sky.

“WHAT!” Screamed Gara, Aramis responded “You heard me, you and I are fighting with Empire till the war ends.” Gara then responded “But our child, I want to raise him on Mandalore. Please Aramis!” Aramis responded “No, we have secured a contract.” Gara was distraught, and she was crying. Gara sat there and said “The front lines aren’t safe for our child, please Aramis listen to me call off the contract.” Gara, sat down, her knees where covering her face. Tears were going down her face. Gara then said “Our child, it won’t be safe if we live in a war zone, I want to raise him traditionally but not have him getting killed by enemy fire.” Aramis then said “Ok Gara, I understand. I’ll think about it.” Aramis put his arm around Gara’s shoulder and said “Gara, we can raise our child on Mandalore, but I will do some military jobs.” Gara, still crying said “Ok, but promise me this. Just please don’t leave our child, like my father did. Please.”

Vader walked through the construction zone, Stormtroopers where setting up Machine guns, and bunkers. Turbo Laser towers where being built along with flak guns, and other defensive weapons. Snipers where setting up small bunkers. And Artillery was setting up in the background. Darth Vader watched as AT-AT’s where marching into position. AT-ST’s where getting ready.

A day later, everything was ready. Vader then said “Send the transmission out to lure the Equestrian Alliance here.” An Officer nodded and said “Transmitting now.”

The Equestrian Alliance fleet came out of light speed hours later. Equestrian Alliance transports flew into flak filled sky. Twilight was on a LAAT she looked to the right and saw a LAAT explode and crash into the ground. TIE Fighter’s flew around dogfighting. Twilight’s gunship landed, and Twilight got off, and watched as Equestrian Alliance soldiers charged the trenches.

The machine gun fire was intense. Dead stormtroopers piled the trenches. Twilight watched as the explosions echoed. Twilight watched as Trench warfare began. Stormtroopers, shot at the other trenches, and Equestrian Alliance forces shot back. Vader watched in the background, a Base was being built for the Empire. It was a prefabricated base.

Boba Fett walked through the Imperial Head Quarters on Equestria. Boba was walking through the hallways, and underground, four squads of Equestrian Alliance Spec Ops where getting ready to rescue Celestia. Boba walked out and boarded the Slave 1. The Equestrian Alliance squads, then entered the base. The Slave 1 took off, and flew towards a ship that was orbiting Equestria.

The Equestrian Alliance forces entered the base. They walked carefully through the area, trying not to encounter an enemy. The forces entered the prison block; they shot at several Storm Troopers. They then opened the cell door, and said “Celestia time to go.” Celestia got up, left with them.

Deka, the jungle was burning as Bombers bombed the forest. A Victory Class Star Destoryer shelled the forest. Twilight was sitting in a metal bunker, and said “The flak guns they set up can’t penetrate the bunker line.” Then a flak shell, hit the metal wall creating a major dent, a pony ducked as the dent nearly nailed his head.

Twilight looked at the dent. And said “We need our artillery to return fire.” Twilight watched as artillery fired back. The gun fire was loud. Twilight then said “Tell our forces to get into the bunker.” The artillery fire hit the Storm Trooper’s bunkers. The battle continued and the gun fire intensified. Twilight stood there watching a holographic view of the battle.

Aramis, was still sitting there with Gara, helping her through her shock. Aramis rubbed her back, and said “Don’t worry, were going to be fine.” Then the ship shook, they were spotted.

Aramis looked out the window Equestrian Alliance ships found them. Aramis said to himself “I really wish my mother was here…” Then a door opened and someone said “My son, get ready.” Gara looked closer, and said “Your Bo-Katan Kryze aren’t you.” Bo nodded and said “Yes I am, and I am sorry Aramis about leaving you.” Aramis looked at his mother, and said “Mom is that you.” Aramis hugged his mom, and his mom Bo-Katan Kryze hugged him back. The ship shook one more time.

Bo said “Aramis, we need to save this ship, and my future grandchild.” Aramis nodded and said “Lets go.” Aramis entered the hangar and entered his ship, Bo got in the Co-pilot’s seat. Aramis took off and said “Mother, we will be joined up by several friendly fighters.” Then the Equestrian Alliance ARC-170’s swarmed around the Mandolorian fleet.

Aramis shot several Equestrian Alliance ARC-170’s down, and then the Slave 1 flew out of lightspeed and shot several more ARC-170s down. The dogfight continued and the fighters flew around. Aramis chased after another squad and noticed they were entering lightspeed.

Aramis landed his ship, and hugged his mother. Aramis found it hard to believe his mother was back. Aramis walked into his room and got into bed with Gara.

Twilight was trying to sleep on Dekta, it was raining. A drop of water hit her hood, Twilight rolled over, and tried to sleep but the water would keep dripping. Twilight then got up looked out a window the battle was still going on. Then she looked out again and saw an Imperial bunker explode. Twilight watched the battle going on outside. Then Twilight said “Commander, how much longer until the battle is over?” The Commander responded “About 6 months.”

Twilight then said “I’ve got an idea, get the bombers to shell the powder bunkers.” The bombers then got orders and attacked the powder bunkers.” Then the powder bunkers exploded, Twilight then said “Advance to there base!” The Prefabricated base that the Empire set up was well defended.

Twilight looked at the base, AA Guns were set up, and Turbolasers where ready, there where several bunkers around the base that where connected to the base by tunnels. Landing pads where around the base, Turbo Lasers where activated and the Base fired on the hills where Equestrian Alliance forces where, TIE Fighters and bombers attacked the Equestrian Alliance ships and ground forces. The battle had heated up.

Stormtroopers where in the bunkers around the base, shooting at the Equestrian Alliance soldiers that where running the hill after them. Soldiers were fighting as the Bunkers that had Anti-Infantry turrets fired on Equestrian Alliance soldiers, and Anti-Vehicle turrets fired on AT-PTs and AT-TEs. Explosions rocked the area.

Twilight stood there watching as the battle raged on. Then a modified ARC-170 that was followed by the Slave 1 flew by. Then the ships landed by the Imperial landing sight then one AA-9 Coursant Transport landed.

The transports where actually for Mandalorian soldiers. The soldiers disembarked, Aramis and his mother Bo and her group of soldiers, where getting ready.

The mountains of Dekta are quite cold, very windy but not enough to crush the Mandalorians hope of achieving their plan. Bo and Aramis were marching through the snow, and then they stopped. Several thousand Equestrian Alliance Soldiers where in the mountains. Mandalorians where outnumbered.

The wind howled, as Bo looked at her son and said “It’s time for action.” The Mandalorians charged and shot down the Equestrian Alliance forces, they fought in hand to hand combat. The Equestrian Alliance’s forces who weren’t as trained as Mandalorians where slaughtered. Bo and Aramis stood over the bodies, the sun was setting. The Mandalorians had returned. Mandalorians had little to no casualties. Bo stood there and put her hand around Aramis’s neck and said proudly “Welcome to a brave new world son.”

On Mandalore, a red headed women was sitting there she was about 48, then her hologram projector beeped she picked it up, then a person who looked like her, the person was Gara. Gara then said “Mom, we need you here.” The person nodded and said “I’ll be there.”

Gara was in the Dekta forest then several stallions surrounded her and said “Well look at what we’ve found boys.” One put there hooves on Gara’s shoulder, Gara then said “Get off me!” They then restrained her, and started pushing her to the ground. Then a voice came from the bushes “Get your hands off her, you scum.” One of the stallions turned around and said “Equestrian Alliance soldiers.” Then the figure sliced off the ID of the Soldier, and kicked him to the ground. Gara looked up and said “Mom?” Vhonte Tervho had returned Vhonte looked at Gara and said “You’ve grown, where’s Aramis?” Then a Stallion tried to take down Vhonte who responded with a shot into the Stallions head.

Aramis was playing a game of Sabacc with a friend. The door opened and Vhonte walked in and said “So you’re my daughter’s husband.” Bo who was in the back ground looked at Vhonte and said “Great, you.” Vhonte responded sharply by saying “Shut up you death watch scum.” Bo then got up and pushed Vhonte, Gara got up and said “Stop!” Bo looked at Gara and stared. Gara then said “Vhonte meet Bo, Bo meet Vhonte.” Bo looked at Vhonte’s hand and then shook it.

Then the Base shook, Vhonte put her helmet on and Bo did the same. Aramis kissed Gara goodbye and joined up with Vhonte and Bo. As they ran to the viewing area they saw the Problem, a LAAT was flying towards the viewing area, the pilot was dead, the Co-Pilot was bleeding out his mouth, the window was stained with blood, the side doors of the LAAT were torn open and ponies where hanging out dying or dead, the side mount guns were torn off and one was burning. Vader walked into the room and used the force; he then threw the LAAT into another LAAT. Vader then said “Fire on their launch pads.”

Boba walked through the hallways, Twilight who snuck into the base saw him. Boba then heard Twilight’s gasp in shock. He looked her way, and got ready to shoot. Twilight got her weapons ready, and then Boba turned around and shot Twilight. Twilight jumped back in shock, Bo and Aramis heard the shots, Vhonte covered them, Twilight ran after Fett. The gun fire was intense. Then Boba Fett turned around and shot Twilight’s shoulder, she screamed in pain as Fett walked up to her and said “To bad there isn’t a bounty on your head.” Last thing Twilight saw was the heel of Boba’s foot.

Boba then got to the Slave 1 and took off. As he flew towards the Mandalorian fleet, he thought “I’m thankful for my kids.” He then flew away. And entered Light Speed.

Vhonte and Bo were glaring at each other. Vhonte then said “What do you want?” Bo responded “Oh, nothing other than restoring honor to the Mandalorians.” Vhonte then said “Get over it, your group killed hundreds.” Bo, kicked Vhonte. Vhonte responded by kicking Bo in the stomach. Bo, coughed and then Aramis and Gara entered. Aramis watched the fight then said “Alright that’s enough!” Bo, then got off the ground and said “Fine.” Vhonte then said “What’s our next job.” Gara then said “We’ve been asked to go to the Waterfalls of Dekta, which aren’t too far from here.” Vhonte then said “Gara, how about you come this time.” Gara responded “I can’t.”

Vhonte looked at her daughter and asked “Why not?” Gara the stuttered out “Mom, I’m, I’m pregnant.” Vhonte looked on her daughter and let it sink in. A tear went down Vhonte’s cheek, Vhonte hugged her daughter and said “Don’t worry, I’ll help you.” Gara embraced her mother, and said “Thank you mom, thank you.”

Twilight was still on the ground unconscious, she was having flash backs. She remembered her friends, and then remembered when war started.

It was a beautiful morning in Ponyville, Spike was messing around. Rarirty was making dresses, and everyone was doing there thing. Then a roar came, and then fire erupted, Ponyville was burning. Rarity was dead from artillery, Rainbow Dash was shot down, and dying. Apple Jack was dead, and her body was mutilated by random falling debris. Fluttershy was in a forest, screaming and crying as she died. Pinkie Pie died, with a smile on her face. Twilight was being evacuated as Ponyville burned to the ground. The NLR and the SE were at war. The war would continue on for 8,000 years.

Twilight woke up, she was still in the hallways, her head felt like as if it were going to explode. Twilight crawled through the hallways and found a vent, Twilight then kicked the vent down and entered. Twilight rolled out into a river, she floated down the river. Twilight floated towards a Equestrian Alliance camp.

Celestia and Luna where on a different planet, a planet called New Equestria, founded by the NLR around 4,000 years ago. The planet was temperate like Equestria it had a polar area, tropics, and temperate zone. It had oceans and life. Changelings lived on the planet, Then on the highest mountain was New Canterlot, it was formed around the mountain with a area inside.

Over head several TIE scout squads came out of light speed. The ships where hidden behind a jammer and a cloaking device. The TIE scouts confirmed that several of the ships where Equestrian Alliance. The TIE scouts flew into the lower atmosphere, and noticed Equestrian Alliance war machines and soldiers where on the ground.

Vader sat there watching as TIE-Scout Identified all these things. Vader then said “Deploy a fleet about out of there scanners range.”

The life in New Canterlot was thriving, the castle was at the top of the mountain. Celestia and Luna where getting constant updates on the war. Then Twilight’s body came in, Twilight was wounded the Equestrian Alliance flew her back to New Equestria to help her heal.

Dekta wasn’t getting any better, the Prefabricated base was holding. Stormtroopers where shooting, without end. But Star Destoryers overhead where leaving.

About outside the scanners over Equestria. TIE bombers were deployed about 3000 TIE Bombers deployed, along with 2000 TIE fighters and 2000 TIE Interceptors, and 500 TIE Scimitars.

1,000 Equestrian Alliance ships orbited New Equestria. Then the Imperial Fighter task force came. The TIE bombers bombed the ships.

Shining Armor was on board a ship when then it shook. Shining ran down the hall way of his providence class carrier, he looked down at the flak guns, then a torpedo tore through the wall and the guns exploded, then the ammo deposits overhead exploded collapsing the ceiling, Shining Armor watched as his ship fell apart.

Shining ran to the bridge and watched as the observation tower of their ship collapse and fall into the ships thick hull. Shining then said “Scramble fighters, I want those bombers out of the air.” An officer responded “Sir, we don’t have any fighters. The hangars are gone, the ground bases can provide support, but it will take them some time to set up their ships, about two hours.” Shining then said “Well were forced to stay here with our flak guns.” Then a TIE bomber exploded. The TIE’s where flying away.

With about 500 ships damaged, 250 damaged without repair. The shipyards where still available. But it was time for rebuilding.

Smoky Skies

Stormtrooper’s swarmed Eclipse. They were taking heavy casualties. The sky was full of fighters, and bombers. Stormtrooper bodies piled up. Then Twilight jumped from a balcony, and sliced down several stormtroopers.

Palpatine and Vader where in the New Canterlot castle, New Canterlot which was now under Empire control, New Canterlot, wasn’t going to be attacked anytime soon. Palpatine sat there overlooking a holographic reputation of the Eclipse battle. The hologram table was large, about 100 feet wide and 100 feet long.

Aramis sat there, there was supposed to be a swimming contest on the ocean side of Eclipse. Aramis’s Platoon was under fire, a stormtrooper screamed “Sir, I don’t it’s safe to swim.” Aramis stood up and said “If I say this beach is safe to swim at, then it’s safe to swim at!” Aramis walked up to a dead Scoutrooper body, and then kneeled down and got a comm link and screamed into the comm link “Foxtrot squad, I need a full airstrike here now!” Then Foxtrot lead responded “10-4, we are coming in full throttle, we are coming in full throttle.” Aramis stood there and pointed at the TIE G/Ts. Then several bombs were dropped, causing white smoke to fly into the air.

Aramis walked through the smoke and knelt down to several new Stormtroopers and said loudly over the roar of battle “Do you smell that?” Aramis said louder “DO YOU SMELL THAT?” A Stormtrooper then said “Yes, sir I do.” Aramis then responded “White Phosphorous son. Nothing else in the galaxy smells like that. I like the smell of white Phosphorous in the morning. That smell, that Phosphorous smell. It smells like, victory, success, and progress.” Aramis got up and walked to the swimming competition.

Twilight sat there, Vedette entered her office. After Twilight rescued Vedette, the two of them became close. Vedette placed a book on her desk and said “We have the Empire forced into the outskirts of the city.” Twilight nodded and said “Good work Vedette, go report to Celestia.”

Vedette then got up and put a wrapped box on Twilight’s desk and said “Here’s a present, for you.” Twilight got up and gave him a friendly hug and said “Thank you.” Then the office shook, a TIE bomber hit over head. Then rubble collapsed down, Vedette jumped onto Twilight to shield her from the rubble.

Shining Armor entered the room with several rescue teams; they pulled Twilight out, and Vedette out. Twilight got out and looked around. A TIE bomber cockpit was in the ceiling, the seat was ejected. Shining Armor looked around and said “Ok, that was close. Twi, where sending you and the High Ranking Generals into bunkers deep under the city, you will be safe from Imperial attacks.” Twilight nodded, she understood.

Equestrian Alliance soldiers had the upper hand; they were better prepared and better armed. They could easily fight off the Empire. As bodies piled up, so did the amount of despair and sadness.

The bunker was comfortable, to Twilight’s surprise; it had a library, and a large bed. Twilight settled in, she could feel the shaking from the bombs. Twilight thought about the horrors overhead. Vedette entered the room and asked “Tell me a bit more about Star Swirl The Bearded’s Clopmunist Manifesto.”

Sombra had a Citadel on New Equestria. It was large, and heavily protected. Shadow Soldiers surrounded it. Sombra stood there, watching his army, it had grown. The time was growing near.

In Equinox, a city that was near Eclipse. Equinox was occupied by the Empire. Mass protests were being staged, against the Empire. Riot Control Stormtroopers where standing there with a shields, and force pikes. They then said over and speaker “Curfew is in effect; go back to your houses.” The majority did that, but a minority stayed. Then the riot police repeated the order. The minority didn’t leave; they then chanted “Even Babies!” The Riot Police charged up there force pikes, and got their shields ready. They then prepared.

The riot police took a step, and then did a war cry. They then charged, across the city square, they attacked. They beat down several ponies. The ponies fought back, and struck down several. They fought; Ponies stole weapons and fought back, then riots started.

The ponies in Equinox, where rising up. Stormtroopers stood there fighting off the rioters, and then an X-Wing flew overhead. A Stormtrooper then reported the sighting of the X-Wing. Then a rebel transport landed, Rebel Alliance soldiers walked off, and got ready for battle.

The Empire was pushed out of Eclipse by the Equestrian Alliance and the Rebel Alliance. Eclipse was in ruins, about 40% of the downtown area was razed, a rather large area considering the down town area is about 1,000 square miles (or 100x100 miles) Twilight walked through the ruins, the area she was in was the only safe area. The rest of the razed areas where engulfed in chaos, looting and riots.

In New Canterlot, the Empire received its newest soldiers. A elite Militia from Courscant, and Anaxes. They were known as the Black Jackets. They wore pitch black trench coats, and there hair style was a buzz cut. They had ballistic helmets on, and had jackboots. They marched in a goose step manner. They boarded Imperial Transports and headed to Equinox.

The Rebel Alliance and the Equestrian Alliance where in Equinox. Most of them were resting, and getting refreshments. It was getting dark. There was going to be a storm tonight, so there would be no bombing raids. The Mandalorians where known to be to the south, but they lost contact in the south west. Eclipse was to the east, it was secured by the Equestrian Alliance.

The Black Jackets crept through the field, fires from burning tanks and vehicles lit there path, the fires reflected on some of their gas mask lenses. There was a storm where they were heading. They walked pass mass graves of stormtroopers, and the occasional dead pony, or Rebel soldier. They encountered an enemy camp, and entered. They walked close to the ground, and then they opened a tent, and shot its occupants. They did the same for all the tents, even the medical tent.

The Black Jackets gathered up the nurses and the wounded and brought them to a river. They then lined them up and executed them one by one; their bodies fell into the river and flowed away. The Black Jackets packed up and detonated the camp’s communication bunker.

The next morning Vedette and Shining Armor were investigating the camp’s failure to respond. It was strange, there was evidence of E-11 magazines, but this was different these weren’t stormtroopers, the foot prints were in single file line. Vedette stood there, talking with soldiers, when then he said “Hush I hear something.” Vedette walked towards the water side, and saw the body of a female the age of 10 and she was a Pegasi, clearly a refugee. She was beaten to death by the butt of a gun. Vedette looked at the mutilated remains, and said “These aren’t Stormtroopers they actually have respect to living things; these things aren’t human nor pony.”

The Black Jackets trekked towards Eclipse, they were to infiltrate the ruined city and cause chaos by killing the princesses, and bombing targets. They succeeded, and now they were left with their first mission, cause chaos, and discord.

The hospitals of Eclipse are a medical marvel, a mix of magic and Bacta, and where robotics meet magic. The hospitals were filled to the max, they could take care of ponies so well it was rumored if you broke your back, your recover time would be a day.

A Transport hover vehicle drove out in front, a Black Jacket who was wearing the uniform of a Rebel got out. He parked the vehicle in the garage, he got out. As he walked towards the road way, he pulled out a detonator, and pressed it. The vehicle exploded, collapsing the parking garage.

The hospital didn’t collapse, but it did shake the area. They could only afford one bombing, but they now had to destroy the morale.

Cadence was planning to make a speech to the soldiers defending the city of Eclipse. She had her area set up. The soldiers of the Equestrian Alliance stood there listening as she talked about how much longer the war would go, and plans for reconstruction. In a building nearby, a Black Jacket set up in the building, he was using a slug sniper rifle, with a silencer.

Cadence kept talking, then when she finished, she concluded with “Peace in the Equestrian Alliance.” The Black Jacket pulled the trigger; the bullet flew downwards and hit Cadence in her chest. Cadence fell to the ground unconscious; her fur was stained with blood. The guards ran to her aid. Cadence was bleeding out, she was picked up and rushed to the hospital.

Then panic took over, ponies were screaming. Guards secured the area, as they attempted to find the snipers. Then a Black Jacket emerged on a balcony, in a different uniform it was black, and had red arm bands, pitch black was the uniforms color, he had a dark military belt, and had jackboots on. He walked along and then rest on the balcony.

A spotlight shined on him, as he walked around, then several others came out they pointed down at the stunned Equestrian Alliance soldiers. They stood there, and then one came out he had black slicked back hair and stood there, and then got a gun out and then turned around, the Black Jackets guarded him. As he entered the building someone screamed “It’s the Empire!” Chaos then quickly broke out. Rebel Alliance soldiers ran towards the building, they knew who these uniformed men where.

On near the coast of New Canterlot, an Equestrian Alliance naval force floated at sea. They were loading up landing boats, and were getting ready for the liberation of the continent that New Canterlot was on. Shining Armor was on one of those boats, he worried for both his unborn child and Cadence after the attempt on her life failed. In the back ground explosions rocked the boat. It was just before dawn on miserable morning. Shining slowly got his armor and weapons ready. He quietly and sadly got prepared; he knew that he would mostly likely die. He then looked at the lamp and then prayed. He opened up a family album, and looked through. He wrote a letter to Cadence and Twilight. He sat quietly as soon as he finished. Then someone knocked on the door and said “Sir H-Hour has come.” Shining got up and got on his armor. And opened the door and said to the messenger “Let’s go.”

The Wounded Lamb

Aramis was sitting there watching the advancing Stormtroopers. Then, Vhonte walked up to him along with Bo, they watched as Stormtroopers. Gara joined them, and watched as the army of white marched. AT-AT’s walked through the jungle. Then Stormtroopers boarded transports, which was weird since they were supposed to be going to the river. Then the he thought “The Equestrian Alliance capital.”

On New Equestria, Equestrian Alliance soldiers where setting up artillery, and trenches. Then they brought out flak guns and Turbolasers. It then started snowing, covering the area in a layer of snow. Equestrian Alliance forces started, getting into the newly built bunkers.

Stormtroopers landed later that day, and got off, the AT-ATs where being unloaded, so were all the war machines. Stormtroopers started marching.

Equestrian Alliance soldiers started alerting all posts, The Empire was coming it was night time bells where ringing sirens where going off. They loaded up artillery and waited. The snow storm picked up, then the marching was heard. The cannons where aimed as a Storm troopers aimed. Then they both fired, Stormtroopers were killed, they then pushed forward only to be repelled. They fought, AT-AT’s fired with epic fire power, only to be responded with the epic fire power of the Equestrian Alliance forces. Celestia and Luna watched as the battle raged on. Then the imperial forces fell back, and went back to Dekta.

On Vanat, in Sombra’s shadow fortress there where screams of pain. The hall ways where filled with torture devices. The hallways were also filled with iron doors, screams of pains came from them. Then a slam would be heard, and then blood would flow out of that cell. Sombra walked by, looking into each cell, watching the bodies rot away. Sombra opened one cell door, in it was a Equestrian Alliance General, then Sombra said “Hello, Vedette.” Vedette looked up at Sombra, he was shaking, he was gagged he was shivering, Sombra then said “If you look closely what you are lying down on has several sharp crystals behind it.” Vedette looked at a mirror, he was right. Then Sombra ripped the gag off him and asked “I would like to ask you about something.” Vedette, a brown stallion, black hair, he was a unicorn, and his cutie mark was a sword and a shield to signify his abilities.

Twilight walked through the dark hall ways of Sombra’s fortress she heard the screams of pain. Then Twilight peered into a room, a Pegasi was being crushed to death by the walls as the walls closed, the Pegasi screamed and howled as his bones snapped. The wall then crushed the Pegasi. Twilight carried Dahn’s saber and walked towards Vedette’s cell. Twilight kicked open the door Sombra was gone; Twilight entered and got Vedette out. Twilight hauled Vedette’s body towards a vent she kicked it open and dragged Vedette out.

Gara was sitting she was in the doctor’s office. Then a medical droid came out and said “You have twins, one boy and one girl.” Gara fell back into her chair, and sighed; she put her hand on her head and wondered. She then thought “Two children, two children.” Then the door was kicked open, and Boba Fett ran through he kicked the window and dove out. The blast shields sealed over the window.

Boba skid down the side of the building he shot his grappling hook at an ARC-170, he then glided through the sky, and then when he was above the Equestrian Alliance camp he dropped down, and then walked through the camp taking pictures.

Overhead an ARC-170 was going down, the pilot screamed “MAY-DAY , MAY-DAY! I’M GOING DOWN MY ENGINE IS OUT, BACK UP DRIVE IS NEARLY DEAD!” As the ARC-170 flew closer towards the Empire’s base the pilot did a kamikaze maneuver he flew towards the Top command tower of the base, Vader wasn’t in it, then the ARC-170 tore through the main support beam, causing the tower to collapse.

Then the Nuclear reactor in the base started falling apart, it was decaying quickly, the experimental new element in it, was named Vaderium. Vaderium was named in hopes to get a quick and swift promotion; it was responded with two chokings.

Vaderium then exploded, Gara thankfully left with Aramis to the Mandalorian fleet, Vader was on his ship.

The explosion tore through the forest both Imperial and Equestrian Alliance soldiers were killed, the explosion formed into a mushroom cloud, Boba Fett was 30 miles away when the explosion happened the explosion fell short of him by 1 mile, the Slave 1 was thankfully in the shop that day so Fett was dropped off by a transport.

The explosion left a new area, the area was full of radioactive sludge, Corium lava. And all the bodies were gone. The Empire suffered yet another defeat.

Boba was picked up and send to New Equestria. The battle on New Equestria was going on, Storm Troopers where dying, and then Vader landed. Vader walked through battle slicing down ponies and making his way to the city of New Equestria. The Equestrian Alliance’s forces where all in the city, The Empire plowed through the outer defenses and entered the city.

Vader made his way to the castle, he looked at the city, it was being shelled and a fight was going on. Vader entered the elevator and went up. He then was in the throne room. Celestia looked at him so did Luna, Twilight glared too. Vader ignited his saber, Twilight walked and did the same, Twilight removed her cloak and threw it aside. Vader then dueled Twilight sliced away at the sabers.

Vader jumped out onto the balcony and then used the force to grab a ARC-170 and threw it at Twilight, Twilight dodged it, and then Twilight threw a statue at Vader, Vader repelled it.

In the Forest of New Equestria, Stormtroopers and Scout Troopers where fighting against Equestrian Alliance soldiers. AT-ST’s walked through the forest; they shot at random Equestrian Alliance soldiers. Then a buzzing was heard, Aramis looked up and saw a black pony, flying through the sky, its feet where like swiss cheese. The black pony was a Changeling. Aramis shot it down; the Changelings then attacked the Stormtroopers with primitive weapons.

Stormtrooper’s shot at the changelings, Aramis then said “Shoot at their wings and then squash them!” They agreed, and started shooting at the Wings, and then they would stomp in the feet.

Vader was still dueling Twilight, he then Jumped into a dark room. Twilight followed, Vader managed to stay quiet for a second. Then Vader used the force to throw a chair at Twilight, Twilight was hit in the head she screamed in pain, she couldn’t see. Then a table was thrown at her, Twilight saw Vader standing there emotionless throwing Items at her. Twilight crawled in pain, outside. Celestia and Luna were watching. They then saw Twilight’s body being thrown out onto an Overhang. Vader jumped out, a thunderstorm was moving in. Wind whipped at Vader’s cape. Vader stood over Twilight, Vader raised his saber, thunder struck. Then Vader struck down at Twilight, Twilight then got out her saber and struck back. Vader then kept beating down on Twilight’s saber, then Twilight sliced his control panel. Vader wasn’t affected by it, his voice was. Vader stumbled back, and then he jumped onto an ARC-170, and flew away.

The jungle was quiet. Stormtroopers walked through it, they were in enemy territory. They walked slowly; the New Equestrian jungle was quiet, too quiet. Aramis then said “They might be underground.” Aramis cleared a bush and looked at a trapdoor. A stormtrooper handed him a chemical grenade. Aramis dropped the gas grenade down into the tunnel.

The grenade exploded, and Aramis walked by the trapdoor, and said “They’ll be down there for a while.” Aramis walked to a river, and said “We’ll set up camp here, until the city of Eclipse about 500 miles south of here is captured.

Vedette, walked out of the hospital. The night was brisk, every now and then the sounds of gunfire and explosions were heard. Vedette walked into the New Canterlot Castle. He walked around and entered his room.

Overhead, TIE fighters and TIE interceptors flew around the Executor. In the hangar a Lambda shuttle was landed, hundreds of Stormtroopers where standing at guard, the ramp lowered out walked robed red guards. Vader walked down the aisle formed between the two ranks of Stormtroopers, and bowed before the ramp. The Emperor Palpatine walked out. Palpatine then said “Rise my friend, we have much to discuss.” Vader nodded and said “Yes my master, we have them pinned down here. They have a Jedi apprentice here.” Palpatine then smirked beneath his hood and said “That can be dealt with.” Vader then continued “They also have two princesses in the castle.” Palpatine laughed and said “They will be killed if they don’t join the Empire.” Palatine’s laughter increased.

Twilight was sleeping, and then her balcony door flew open the curtains flew around. Cold air entered Twilight looked up and saw Dahn’s ghost. Dahn then said “Well done, I have something to say. I fear in these dark times, you won’t survive another duel with Vader. He has anger and hate towards you now. Don’t confront him, ever.” Twilight then asked “What about my brother? Is he force sensitive?” Dahn shook his head and said “No he is not.”

A shuttle landed in the New Canterlot square, Vader and Palpatine disembarked. Palpatine entered the throne room; Celestia looked up and asked “Who are you?” Palpatine said “Emperor Palpatine of the Empire.” Celestia then said “You’re under arrest in the name of the Galaxy.” Palpatine smirked and said “I am the galaxy.” Then a saber emerged from his cloak. He then raised the blade over his head. And then Twilight landed in front of Celestia. Then he let out a terrifying scream. He dove into battle, and impaled several guards. Twilight then felt something, fear. Palpatine then sliced down another guard and then electrocuted several others. Palpatine walked towards Twilight, dueled with Palpatine then, Palpatine blasted her with lightning. Twilight flew out the window; Palpatine did the same to Celestia and Luna.

Twilight fell outside, she was screaming from the pain of the lightning, she then looked up and saw Celestia and Luna fly outside, Twilight regained control and managed to fly away. Celestia and Luna did the same.

Gara was sitting, and then the door opened. Aramis walked in, Gara got up and hugged him and then kissed him. They sat down, and then Gara said “Twenty five more weeks, until they are born.” Aramis nodded and said “I have been doing more jobs, to bring in more income.” Gara put her hand around Aramis’s shoulder and said “Thank you.”

Palpatine walked through the hallways of his new castle. He then said “Attack there final city.” Then Palpatine walked around and said “Soon my friend, as soon as Eclipse falls. They will be crushed, and we will have peace.” Palpatine looked over a balcony, the night sky was cold, thunder was cracking in the background. He then said “One small move and the Equestrian Alliance’s government is dead. Then we shall have peace.”

Eclipse was a large city, a billion ponies inhabited it. Venators hovered overhead. The ocean was next to Eclipse. Palpatine then ordered “Keep New Canterlot, I want the castle to be secured for me.”

Stormtroopers secured New Canterlot. They guarded it without end.

Eclipse’s city walls where large, and could withstand a siege. But when the Empire was sitting outside getting ready to strike. Vedette was alerted; he managed to rescue the Princesses. Vedette then looked, and saw Stormtroopers.

Vader and Palpatine stood there watching the Stormtroopers advance.

Overhead, a Rebel Alliance ship flew slowly. It was a transport. It was scouting out the Empire, when then it flew to the Eclipse city. It landed, and Rebel Alliance soldiers poured out. They walked into the town hall, and saw Celestia. As the soldiers walked through the town, they saw carnage. They walked through the alleys, and saw rotting bodies.

Then the Rebel soldiers saw stormtroopers they shot at the stormtroopers. They fought over the alley way. They fired at each other the Stormtroopers were killed.

The Landings

The weather was miserable as Shining got on the landing craft. He looked up at the sky. There was flak, and anti air missiles. They then landed and got off Shining led the charge. Explosions shook the earth. Ponies and Rebel Alliance soldiers got killed. They ran towards the bunkers. Shooting at them, and throwing thermal detonators. 1,000 ponies and humans charged towards the emplacements. 500 of them died, only for more to come in. They slowly but surely made it up to the bunkers, explosions rocked the earth, the landing zone turned into hell as the Empire shelled the beach with White Phosphorus. The White flames engulfed the beach. Then the Equestrian Alliance climbed up the mountain.

By the time the weather cleared up the naval bombardment still continued bombing positions more inland. Then it went quiet. The first day was over. Shining was still alive, he walked through the camp they managed to set up bunkers, communication bunkers and AA defense. He felt safe, the beach heads to the north and the south fell the same day.

It was just before dawn of the next day, was dark, cold. Shining asked to be withdrawn, but he was told to sit tight. He sat there in the bunker getting ready, inspecting his armor, and he was cleaning his weapon. He listened to the explosions in the distance. There was sleet on the ground. He opened up a family album he would most likely die tomorrow; his group was being ordered by the High Command to move forward towards the enemy positions to break through. Shining saw through that lie, it was to hold back the enemies. He thought of Cadence, his unborn child, and Twilight.

The morning of that day, they were woken by the sound of explosions. Shining ran outside, ponies were running up with guns towards the enemy forces that ambushed them. Rebel soldiers were being engulfed by explosions. Black Jackets, Stormtroopers and Mandalorians were attacking them, from the air. A Mandalorian LAAT flew by; the Mandalorians sat on the edge shooting downwards. Shining ran towards the AA positions to order them to fire on the enemy fighters and bombers. Then the AA guns got engulfed in flames the remains of a rebel soldier fell down, a rebel on the ground was bleeding to death with shrapnel in his stomach, he was coughing up blood. Shining then turned around gun fire was all around. The enemies where hoping to divide the two beach heads. He then ran towards the communication bunker. TIE bombers where screaming overhead. As Shining entered people ran out. He dialed the assistance needed code, there was interference. Then he heard the scream of TIE bomber diving down. He turned around and saw through a window the TIE bomber flying with no stop he screamed. The bomber dropped its payload.

The explosion rocked the area; Shining’s bloodied hoof slid off the comm panel and fell down. His body was in there Shining Armor, General of the Royal Fusiliers died, he died not in vain, and he died for his men. His face was of shock, and pain.

Oizna Bridgehead was still being held. The remains of Royal Fusiliers Company D were gathering the dead. They drove around in speeders getting bodies. The beach was filled with bodies that where getting buried by sand that was brought on by the tide. Then Shining’s body was recovered, the rebel soldiers shook their head in pity and dragged his body to the mass grave, where the bodies where to be buried for the moment

Then the remains of the Royal Fusiliers headed towards New Canterlot in a single file line.

Twilight who had more access to the death lists accessed those who died, and couldn’t believe it, Shining Armor was on the list of those dead. Twilight fell to the ground crying, as she read the details of death, and the decision to leave his forces behind.

Twilight was sitting there mourning Shining’s death, she quietly walked the halls of the Eclipse Castle. She then encountered Vedette, Vedette looked at her, and said “I am so sorry about Shining. He died with bravery.” Twilight then said darkly “They were all left behind, most of them dead. The Royal Fusiliers Company D.”

Vedette then said “Twilight, I understand your pain. I have lost many friends, Shining died while trying to save others, we found him in the communication bunker, the Camera in there showed Shining running in trying to activate the emergency signal.”

“Did he succeed? I want to know if my brother did succeed.”

“No Twilight, the TIE Bomber killed him first.”

Twilight wept a bit more and then turned around and headed away. Vedette then sighed and headed towards the throne room.

On the road to New Canterlot, the Equestrian Alliance wasn’t being ambushed or attacked. They suspected the New Canterlot would be filled with Imperial Forces. They were all marching towards, the city. When then they arrived. New Canterlot castle was on its mountain. Then they launched LAATs, and flew towards the city when then a swarm of missiles streaked towards them. Then a handful of the LAATs exploded, they were hit the others engaged missile defenses.

They landed in the downtown area, and disembarked. And attacked, then Stormtroopers charged them. Stormtroopers where gunned down. The Empire was out trained in several ways. There Equestrian Alliance had better knowledge of the area. They were being forced back.

Vader walked through the New Canterlot castle. He looked outside the window and saw the city below now was in chaos. Vader then encountered Palpatine and said “Master, the city is now under attack. What shall we do now?” Palpatine walked slowly and said “Patience my friend, soon we shall have them in our trap.”

On the ground Aramis was sitting there, with his army. He then said “Alright. Black Jackets will back us up, we will be meeting the enemies in the town square.” Aramis then looked at the Black Jacket commander, who was wearing a there normal outfit, a black trench coat, ballistic helmet, and Jack Boots. His only known name was A’den. He walked around and then got a Vibro Sword out and said “I hear Celestia is visiting.” Aramis nodded and said “Yes she is. We are trying to remove her.” A’den laughed and said “I’ll meet her.”

Celestia stood there, she looked around. When then A’den walked out a building in his uniform. Celestia looked at him, and remembered the uniform; it was what one of those assassins wore on the balcony. Celestia then said “Sir, you are to give up, you’re under arrest.” A’den laughed and unsheathed his Vibro Blade. Celestia got her own sword out.

A’den dealt the first strike. He attacked Celestia like a tiger. Celestia fought back the strikes. Celestia dueled with A’den expecting him to give up. But he didn’t, he fought closer to Celestia.

Aramis walked through New Canterlot he despised the Black Jackets they had no morals, it was only “Shoot anything non-human, and kill prisoners.” Aramis walked towards the FOB. He arrived to be met with Gara. Gara was sitting there and then looked up and said “Aramis, we are getting more reinforcements.”

“How many?”

“1,000 Mandalorians.”

Aramis nodded and said “Good we will need them to fight off the enemys near the forward sector.”

A’den struck at Celestia’s sword, a royal guard tried to protect Celestia. The guard was instead slayed on the ground. A’den then kicked Celestia on the ground and said “You will pay for rebelling.” A’den raised his sword for the final strike. When then somepony screamed “Sister!” Celestia turned her head to the right and saw Luna.

A’den looked at both of them and then said “Two kills both Princesses.” A’Den attacked Celestia and then attacked Luna. The three of them fought in the streets. A’den was outmatched, he then sliced at Celestia’s shoulder blade cutting her. Celestia gasped in pain and fell. A’den retreated, to safety.

Aramis was standing there watching the battle when then a door behind him opened, and then a Unicorn wielding a gun emerged. Aramis turned around, and said “Put that down, or else you will be shot.” The pony didn’t and said “You have oppressed us.” Aramis noticed the unicorn’s magic grip get tighter around the trigger. Aramis shot the unicorn, and then called guards.

The Stormtroopers entered the room and looked at the body and said “Sir, shall we burn him with the others.” Aramis was horrified by the idea and said “No, you will give him a full military funeral, with full rites.” The Stormtroopers dragged the body, and Aramis yelled to them “Carry the body as if it was one of your comrades.”

Aramis went back to watching the battle, from a balcony this time. Then the door opened from behind and A’den entered. A’den looked at the battle and said “Celestia is weakened from her encounter, Luna prevented me from killing Celestia.” Aramis nodded and said “Any word on if Shining Armor is still alive, I heard rumors that he was killed.”

“A TIE bomber killed him; his body was in a communications bunker, apparently trying to call for help.”

“A very brave and honorable way to die, he died for his men.”

“Aramis, he deserved to die he was lesser than us, don’t compliment them.”

Aramis stood there with his Mandalorian armor on and then walked out towards the artillery. Aramis walked away and then wondered “Why did I agree to join the Empire.”

Vader turned to his master and asked “Master shall we spring the trap.” Palpatine turned to Vader and said “Spring the trap, only we shall survive.” Vader then turned on a hologram to the FOB and said “Release the enzyme bombs.” Enzyme bombs would target ponies’ ability to digest food and their ability to take in water, by destroying the enzymes only ponies were affected, now combine that with the terror factor of the TIE bomber’s scream, a true terror weapon.

Palpatine sat down at a desk first and then signed the order to issue the Enzyme bombs; the orders official name was Final Solution for the Equestrian Problem. Palpatine stood up and said “Send this to the generals.” Vader relayed the Orders to everyone.

Target number one was Eclipse. Eclipse was already being ravaged by bombings. A colt and a foal were playing in the fields when they heard a tie bomber. The colt said “Listen mommy a space ship.” The mother turned around and grabbed her children and ran to a bomb shelter. They arrived just in time, and sealed it up.

Then the bombs dropped, exploding all around some Enzyme Bombs and some Proton bombs. As the Empire bombed Eclipse. New Canterlot was the same. Rebel soldiers were getting closer to the New Canterlot Castle from the south, The Equestrian Alliance from the North.

Celestia was still recovering from her wound that A’den gave her. Luna was away trying to find A’den. Which she was successful at. A’den was in the New Canterlot castle conferring with Palpatine. Luna then crashed through the window, and got out her sword. A’den turned around and then said “Your Majesty, let me deal with this.” A’den got out his sword. Luna was in full metal armor. They then engaged in a duel.

Luna thrust her sword at A’den, when then Luna dropped her sword and raised her hoofs to her throat, she was now gagging. Luna then saw Vader walk in. Vader’s right hand was clenched as he choked her. Vader then released her, and took her sword. Luna propped herself up and then said “Do your worst to me, I will never submit to you.” Vader stared at her and said “You can be that way. A’den take her away, and torture her, extract info, and make sure she doesn’t die.” A’den nodded and then kicked Luna in the head.

Liberation

Liberation Twilight stood there she had only two friends Vedette, and Cadence, she walked through the Eclipse Castle, wondering how much longer the war would be, her brother was already killed, and several of her friends were killed. Twilight move slowly along the hall ways, a new weapon the Empire deployed managed to kill thousands of civilians.

Aramis stood there silently cursing the Enzyme Bomb; it was uncalled for and cruel. Aramis turned around to see Luna being dragged by A’den. Aramis looked at A’den and said “You’re dragging blood everywhere, do fireman’s carry and try not to injury her, we need the info she has.” A’den then said “We will be using our own tactics on her, in the mean time you go back to work.” Aramis understood and then walked to the FOB.

Cadence was sitting in the Eclipse Castle, and then a Mail Pony knocked on the door, and left a package. Cadence went to check it. The she levitated the Package and walked inside. Cadence put the package on a table, and opened it. Inside was the official Death Certificate for Shining Armor, it had gold leaf and a wax stamp at the bottom it was the royal stamp, Cadence looked into the package and found a uniform, it was Shining’s formal uniform. Cadence’s eyes watered at the sight, she fell to the ground and cried.

Over New Canterlot, TIE fighters were dogfighting with ARC-170’s and X-wings. The control of air supremacy was being contested. TIE interceptors were patrolling, while Tartan class patrol cruisers and CR-90s fought against each other. Some Tartan Patrol Cruisers exploded, while others broke into several pieces, some would just stall and then ram into the ground.

On the ground Stormtroopers where retreating rapidly. They fell back to the New Canterlot castle, some were ordered to Evac to old Equestria. The others were told to hold, and get ready for a battle. The Stormtroopers lined up on the castle’s walls, and aimed downwards.

The New Canterlot castle was now a fortress, the Empire installed TIE Hangars to the Castle. They were fortified at the bottom they had secured. In the prison cells of the New Canterlot Castle, Luna was screaming in pain. A’den looked at her and said “It can all stop if you just say your loyalty to the Emperor.” Luna then spat out “Never.” A’den then hit her again with the butt of an E-11. A’den got out a syringe and said “You’ll be better not knowing what is next.” Luna bucked and tried to get away, but A’den walked closer and then injected her. It was a medicine that would make her forget what was next. Luna’s eyes then started to widen and she froze up, and then slumped over, twitching every now and then. A’den then said “Bring in the truth serum.” A Navy Trooper handed him the syringe. A’den then said to Luna “Tell us your secrets.” He injected Luna with the serum. A’den turned to the Navy Trooper and said “Turn on the microphone and record this.” The Navy Trooper nodded and said “Yes sir.”

Several hours later A’den walked upstairs with a hologram disc, and handed it to Vader. A’den then explained and said “Interrogation tapes, we know where the Princesses are.” Vader looked at A’den and said “Very good, send your best hit team.” A’den nodded and said “What about Luna.” Vader looked at A’den and said to A’den “Execute her; we need to kill all princesses.” A’den nodded and said “It will be my pleasure.”

Twilight was in New Canterlot all equipped and ready for battle. In the back ground the scream of TIE bombers where heard. Twilight headed to New Canterlot Castle, to help with siege. The Equestrian Alliance was charging the outer bunkers. Twilight was looking for a water pipe; well to be exact an old water pipe that had no water. Twilight looked out, she was about 500 feet above New Canterlot, she felt the wind she looked down and saw hell.

Sombra was inside the New Canterlot Castle; he entered the throne room, and saw a cloaked figure on the throne. Palpatine looked up and knew immediately who this pony was. Palpatine approached him and said “Hello Sombra, I’ve been expecting you.” Sombra looked up and opened his mouth to say something, Palpatine blasted Sombra with lightning. Sombra was taken by surprise he was blasted into the wall; Sombra was pinned against the wall he was screaming as Palpatine blasted him. Then Sombra was blasted out onto a balcony Palpatine followed after him and said “Your weak magic’s are no match for the power of the dark side.” Sombra propped himself onto the, and then he tried to say something, Palpatine blasted him once again. Sombra was screaming, and then an ARC-170 flew within range. Palpatine looked at it and then levitated it Sombra looked up and noticed an ARC-170 falling down onto him Palpatine laughed, Sombra screamed his last words “NO! NOOOOO!” The ARC-170 exploded, the balcony collapsed and the remains of Sombra fell to the ground, Sombra still alive and dying fell down 1,000 feet, to his death. Sombra was dead, Stormtroopers brought his body and said “Sir we saw a purple mist around it.” Palpatine looked at the body, it was bloodied, there was shrapnel Sombra was missing his left eye, and his horn was blown off. Palpatine stood there and said “Keep his body; throw it into the main lobby, it is a warning.” Stormtroopers nodded and started dragging the body.

Twilight found the water pipe, and kicked it open; she began her way to the enemy’s water works. As Twilight crawled out she noticed, the Stormtroopers weren’t there. Twilight walked through the water works; she was on a pipe, the roar of the mechanized pumps made it impossible to hear anyone.

Celestia was inside the New Canterlot castle, she approached the prison area and found her sisters cell. Celestia snuck around a few Stormtroopers and then freed Luna, they were now together.

Twilight worked quickly to leave the water works; she then walked up to the exit and entered the hallways. Twilight walked through the halls it was quiet, but tense for some reason. Twilight walked by a window, she saw the battle, Twilight walked through the halls. She then entered the throne room, Palpatine was sitting there, Vader turned around and said “Twilight I’ve been waiting for you.” Twilight turned on her saber, Vader did the same. They then entered a duel.

The Empire was sending forces to Xander; they entered the older Equestrian Alliance base. The base smelled of death, an occasional scream would be heard. The scream was of the wind, the Stormtroopers patrolled the area.

On New Equestria, the duel continued. Twilight and Vader fought, the two of them were fighting to the point of the Throne room looked like a tornado came through. Vader then knew the battle was lost. Palpatine was already on a shuttle, Vader backed out of duel.

Xander was set up. Stormtroopers were guarding the new base. They then got ready for the fight. AT-ATs were getting ready. AA guns were aimed at the sky. Turbo-laser towers where being erected, and trenches where being dug.

New Canterlot was secured; Celestia and Luna were walking through the hall ways of the castle. New Canterlot was the capital of the Equestrian Alliance. The city’s streets where littered with rubble. Soldiers patrolled.

Aramis was on Xander, he and A’den were standing they were standing on a mountain. Aramis’s cape was blowing in the wind. A’den stood there watching the Black Jackets set up a trench. There would be a large battle. Gara was with the Mandalorian fleet. Boba Fett was getting ready for the battle.

The old Equestrian Alliance base was set up. The base was now a base of the Galactic Empire. Stormtroopers where patrolling outside.

The Empire then set off a distress code to lure the Equestrian Alliance. Then the Equestrian Alliance came out of hyperspace 24 hours later. The Empire had a fleet in orbit. The two fleets attacked each other. Then the landing ships came down.

The landing ships landed near the trenches. The soldiers got out; one landing craft went flying into a ravine. The LAAT which hit the ravine, crumbled up, and fell deeper into the ravine. But fifty more landed, ponies got off and then charged.

Overhead in space, Star Destoryers attacked Venator Destoryers. The numbers were ungodly, 1,000 Venator and 500 Providence carriers were attacking the huge Imperial, Mandalorian, and Black Jacket fleet.

Ponies onboard a Providence carrier was working hard. There gun battery was the only one working, the others were destroyed by Black Jacket Star Destoryers.

The other batteries, were in flames firefighting crews were putting out the fires. The Black Jacket Star Destoryer exploded, the Providence Carrier moved toward a repair station, it’s starboard side was collapsed.

Xander was cold, barren, and sleet was falling onto the ground. It was Life Day in the empire, and Harthwarming Eve in the Equestrian Alliance. Artillery shells flew overhead gunfire was being heard. The night was quiet; Aramis’s soldiers started singing Life Day songs. Luna and Celestia were leaving when the heard, the songs. They turned around, and looked at each other. They left anyways.

The Equestrian Alliance forces started singing Hearthwarming Eve songs. Both sides sang louder, and louder. Then a Stormtrooper got up, his helmet on. He then removed his helmet and stared out towards the Equestrian Alliance forces, the stars shined on him. He then dropped his E-11 rifle, and walked towards the Equestrian Alliance trenches. An Equestrian Alliance officer stood up and screamed “TURN BACK OR BE FIRED ON!” The Stormtrooper raised his hands, a sign of peace. The Stormtrooper gave the officer a note. The note called for a cease fire to help increase morale on both sides, and to show a sign of peace. The Officer looked at the Stormtrooper and said “Deal.”

Xander was not so bloody. Ponies and Stormtrooper were playing football/hoofball (or soccer). Both sides had a peaceful party. The guns were left in a pile, well out of sight. Soldiers and Stormtroopers, played tag, catch, and ultimate Frisbee

On New Equestria, Imperial Special Operations missions skyrocketed, reports of Black Jackets, Mandalorians, Storm Commandos, Imperial Commandos, and probe droids, plagued the New Equestrian police forces. One day an entire small town was found burned, pillaged, and destroyed. There was no evidence.

The Empire knew what happened; it was to destroy Vedette’s morale. What happened was some of the highest trained Black Jackets or Wolf Squad was sent in. When they landed, they knew what the village was known for, it was known for being the home town of Vedette, when the Wolf Squad landed, they attacked. They slaughtered the children first; they then proceeded to the women, then the males. The Wolf Squad then placed explosives in the houses.

The houses exploded. The Wolf Squad left, they were never detected, and they left no trace. They picked up every single E-11 clip, or items of note.

On Xander, the temporary truce ended, ponies went back to the slaughter. Stormtrooper death levels where high, ponies were pushing the Empire back. Then the Empire called in a new weapon.

The Prototype of the Sovereign class Dreadnaught, it was smaller than an Eclipse Class Dreadnaught. But had the same fire power, able to destroy planets, and able to strike down rebellions. As soon as the Prototype or known by the Imperial Navy, as Subject X.

Subject X orbited Old Equestria. It was a sign of the Imperial Stronghold that was on the planet. The Empire, was getting ready to defend Old Equestria, they had the intent of killing one pony for every inch the Empire lost.

Vedette and Twilight were having dinner. A Guard approached the table, and passed a note to Vedette. Vedette read it, his eyes widened and he dropped the note. Vedette’s home town was destroyed.

Vader was walking through the hallways of the Imperial Complex on old Equestria; he was on a sky bridge, which was a tube shape. He walked towards the command center, he looked out the window, and the Lava fields were the same, lava geysers exploded into the air. Vader kept on walking. Vader entered a room, there were several Black Jacket commanders standing. Vader then asked “Which one of you was in command of the New Canterlot Castle security?” One Commander raised his hand; Vader then choked that commander and said “You allowed a Jedi to get into the castle.”

Subject X still orbited Equestria; the ship was being inspected by Palpatine. Palpatine then gave the order, send the ship to Xander.

On New Equestria, New Canterlot was in absolute chaos. A Mandalorian raid on the Equestrian Congress, and the Equestrian Library left the city in sheer chaos. Aramis was hiding behind a chair in the Congress, Equestrian Alliance soldiers were screaming, shouting and they were trying to get back up. Aramis got up and skillfully shot two of the soldiers. The other soldiers fought back, trying to gain ground. Aramis ran towards an Equestrian Alliance soldier and kicked the soldier out of the way. The exit was clear.

Aramis got up to a window, the sun was setting. He then got out a detonator, he pressed it. A skyscraper exploded, the skyscraper was the Department of Interior, the entire building collapsed. Aramis then ran towards his transport. Gun fire was all around; Aramis felt a hot sting in his calf. He was hit. Aramis got on board in time.

Aramis was leaving; he wanted the war to end. War wasn’t the same, as soon as he got back to Gara he embraced her and said “Gara, this war, is just a night mare. I have seen to many children die, even babies.” Aramis broke down crying he fell down into his seat, pondering how one could be so cold.

The Masters Retreat

New Equestria was is usually a beauty; ponies would flock to it to enjoy the scenery. But today it was different, it was sadder. Twilight was walking through the New Canterlot Castle’s chapel; it was filled with Royal Guard coffins, and today was body day. Twilight found the one she was looking for; it said “Shining Armor General of Royal Fusiliers.” Twilight stood there, standing in respect, Vedette came up behind her and said “We finally brought him back.” There were problems with logistics; the roads would be attacked by Black Jacket raiders. Cadence called off the funeral, the funeral was to now be after Cadence gave birth, so the child could at least say he was at his father’s funeral. Twilight walked among the rows, she looked at one coffin it said “Unknown” Twilight stood there pitying the possible widow, widower or family this soldier left behind. Twilight walked towards the end of the row, the sheer trauma then hit her. She turned around and saw a family weeping; Twilight knew this war must end. Then Twilight’s mind imagined the explosion and her brother dead.

In the Eclipse Chapel, a widow was mourning. She stood there over the coffin, her one year old played with an Equestrian Alliance ARC-170 toy. The widow wept, the one year old looked up, and went on with playing, the one year old had no idea what was going on.

Twilight and Vedette were walking in the Royal Canterlot gardens. They were talking about plans after the war, Vedette then said “I hope to get married, have a kid.” Twilight listened, and said “I want to do the same.” Twilight looked at the moon of New Canterlot and said “I wish the war would end already.”

Subject X orbited Equestria quietly, then a shuttle approached it, the pilots asked “Permission to land?” Subject X granted the permission, as the shuttle got closer, you could see how the ship was under construction. As the shuttle landed, a Commander in the Control Area said “Inform the commander Lord Vader has arrived.” The Shuttles ramp lowered, a legion of Stormtroopers guarded the hangar, Vader got out, and then met with the Commander.

“My lord, this is an unexpected visit.”

“I am here to put this ship right on schedule.”

“We are working as fast as we can, we need more workers.”

“You do not need more workers Commander, you need more morale.”

“I am sorry my lord.”

New Canterlot was in a grim mood, more coffins were arriving. Twilight stood there right next to her brother’s coffin, and cried. She sat there, weeping Twilight was afraid, some of these ponies she killed or ordered their deaths when Twilight was with Vader.

Celestia was in her office signing notes and stamping death notices. Celestia looked outside at the grey sky; there was frost in the ground. Celestia sighed and went back to signing. Celestia longed for a break, but those who died in the day Celestia would sign there death notice.

Luna was sitting there in the chapel. Watching a family mourn, then Luna spoke up and said “I’m sorry for your lose.” The wife of the dead soldier turned around and said “You’re the reason for this, you sent him to Oizna, and you are a monster.” The wife trotted up to Luna and then hit Luna. Luna fell to the ground as the Wife walked away towards the exit. Luna got up from the ground and looked shocked, she couldn’t believe it, and Luna was on the ground in the chapel crying because she thought she was the reason for the death.

Vader stood on the main deck of Subject X, he then turned to the Captain and said “Make the Equestrian Alliance think that there is a fleet of three Executor Class Super Star Destoryers heading to New Equestria.” The Captain nodded and said “As you wish, would you like to add a Star Destoryer escort?” Vader looked at the Captain and said “Yes.” Vader despised the captain for taking the words out of his mouth.

Vedette and Twilight were having dinner at a well-known food place* in New Canterlot. Vedette sat there telling Twilight about his time with the army, he started off with the time he got recruited. Twilight then told Vedette when she was crowned. Twilight remembered the songs. Then she got brought back to reality up by a LAAT that flew by, Twilight screamed because of how sudden the LAAT was. Vedette fell back laughing, Twilight’s expression was priceless.

Twilight and Vedette then walked back to the New Canterlot Castle, they opened the front gate. Boba Fett was inside, Twilight gasped as Boba kicked an unarmed soldier who was attempting to surrender. Boba took out his rifle and looked at Twilight. Boba smirked and said “You have two options, let this pony die, or come with me. You bring Vedette along. If you make one wrong move, this guard dies. Your choice.” Twilight stood there and said “You’re bluffing.”

“Remember Dahn? And what I did?”

“Yes.”

“Are you willing to bet a ponies life on it?”

“No.”

“Then give up. 3 seconds.”

“3”

“2”

“1”

“Stop! I will give up!”

Twilight dropped her saber and Boba picked it up. Boba then said “Too late.” Fett then killed the pony. Twilight stood there as

Boba poked her in the back of her head with his EE-3. “Move it.” Boba Fett commanded her, Vedette was standing there hiding.

They approached the Slave 1. Boba Fett walked the sun was rising, his cape whipped in the wind, there where clouds in the background. Boba looked and said “Go into the cargo hold, and sit tight.” Twilight and Vedette did so. Boba boarded the Slave 1 and accidentally clonked his head. Then a door to the launch pad opened, and Rebel Alliance soldiers poured out and screamed “Its Boba Fett!”

The Slave 1 started hovering and shot a few rounds and then turned and flew towards the sun. Boba Fett was heading towards Subject X.

On Subject X Twilight was brought before Palpatine. Twilight was followed by Vader. Vader stood there and said “Here she is my master.” Palpatine then said “I see, did Fett get her.”

“Yes my master.”

“Good, good.”

“How much longer until the Equestrian Alliance fleet arrives?”

“Thirty minutes.”

“Everything is proceeding as planned; did we pull out all our forces from Xander?”

“Yes master.”

Twilight stood there, and said “Wait, what you are planning?” Palpatine turned around and said “The end of your pathetic rebellion, Vader you stay here with Twilight, and then take her to the prison.”

Palpatine departed, and headed to the Ground Base. Vader stood there, and threw the lightsaber to Twilight. Twilight picked it up, Vader did not flinch. Twilight then screamed as she charged towards Vader, Vader promptly raised his saber and defended himself. “Give yourself into the Darkside, you can overpower me with your hate, and anger.” Twilight then held back her anger and struck at Vader, she levitated her saber. Vader defended himself, and said “You are weak; your grip on the saber isn’t well. You failed your brother, he died in vain.” Twilight screamed, and attacked Vader. Vader grabbed Twilights throat and said “I have received orders, to take you to a prison.” Twilight kicked Vader, but Vader grabbed Twilight’s saber.

Twilight was dragged to a transport then she was taken to the Imperial Ground Base. Just in time for the Equestrian Alliance fleet to arrive. There ships were immediately forced to engage. They were firing on the other ships, when then Subject X fired on a ship, the super laser destroyed the ship.

Twilight’s cell was overlooking a parade ground, when she looked out when she got in she was shocked. There were thousands of stormtroopers, they were all lined up. Then the intercom announced “Forward face.” A loud thunder filled the parade grounds, it shook Twilight’s room. Twilight looked closer, then Intercom then announced “Forward March, and prepare for battle.” TIE Bombers took off, TIE fighters flooded the air, and CR90 Corvettes filled the air. Then the stormtroopers started marching, they were marching in sync with each other. The Black Jackets where goose stepping out of the Parade Grounds.

Twilight looked at the lava fields and thought “So many people and ponies are going to die.” Then all the sudden Equestrian Alliance Landing craft flew overhead and flew towards the ruins of Canterlot. They landed, and unloaded.

Black Jackets sat in some of the ruined buildings; they then pulled out a sniper rifle, and set up. The squad leader then said “By the time this ash storm stops, we open fire, rockets, guns, and LMGs, just unload on them.” The ash storm stopped, and then they started shooting at the Rebel Alliance and Equestrian Alliance forces. Then the rebels threw a thermal detonator, the detonator exploded. The Black Jackets exploded, all of them dead.

Vader walked through the command section of the base and ordered an AT-AT general “Get the AT-ATs ready, if they are able to walk through lava, and then make them move through the rivers.” The General nodded and saluted Vader and said “Yes my lord.”

The AT-ATs moved out and started marching towards the front lines. The front lines was where Canterlot ruins ended, and the lava fields started. If a body was hit, then it would melt inside the armor, Rebel Soldiers had to use modified stormtrooper armor to prevent death from the heat.

Vader was walking through the ruins of Canterlot; he entered the Rebel Alliance command post. Vader walked towards the command room, he heard the voices of ponies, and then he heard Luna and Celestia, Vader walked up to a guard and sliced her down, the Guard fell to the ground and whimpered out “No, not the princesses, must warn them.” The guard tried to press the panic button, but she lost her grip on life, and went limp.

Vader entered the room, and locked the doors; Celestia looked up and gasped so did Luna. Vader stood there ignited his Lightsaber, and then turned to a security guard and then struck the guard down to the ground. Vader charged towards Celestia and sliced her back, Celestia immediately went unconscious. Vader turned around and saw a pregnant earth pony try to retreat; Vader raised his saber and kicked her to the ground the earth pony screamed “NO! I HAVE TRIPLETS! PLEASE HAVE MERCY!” Vader raised his saber and impaled the earth pony in the stomach. Vader turned around and saw Luna who was charging in an attempt to attack Vader, Vader raised used the force to push Luna into a wall, Luna instantly went unconscious. Vader walked towards a rebel general and killed him. Vader then sliced open the window and jumped out.

Celestia woke up, and coughed out ashes. She crawled along the floor, and encountered the body of a pony, she shook the body it was the pregnant pony. Celestia crawled towards a humanoid body, it was a general. Celestia managed to get herself up and looked for Luna, she then found Luna.

Celestia stood there; she helped her sister up, and hugged Luna. Luna was safe, then the doors exploded, Rebel Alliance soldiers busted in, they saw what happened. Celestia looked outside the window, and saw TIE Fighters flying by, and then she saw Equestrian Alliance soldiers march towards the Imperial complex, the ash whipped by.

Vader stood there looking outside; he did not regret what he did. He then said to a commander “Prepare to crush them.” The Commander nodded and said "Yes my lord, shall we deploy the Dark Troopers?" Vader nodded and said "Yes."

Twilight stood there, she then looked at the Assembly area, and then noticed something in the glass, there was a small crack. Twilight kicked the crack, she stood there kicking and then she broke through. The wind was howling, the ash blew into her cell. Twilight fell down to the balcony below, she walked slowly, and then she looked around, and then a lightsaber ignited behind her, Twilight ran faster. Vader was behind her, Vader jumped over her and then gave her a lightsaber and said “Now let out your anger.” Twilight walked backwards, and then threw a barrel at Vader. Vader was taken by surprise. Vader recovered from the attack, and ran towards Twilight. Twilight raised her saber in defense. Vader attacked Twilight and overpowered her. Twilight screamed, and pushed Vader back. Vader kicked Twilight to the ground and then raised his saber; he then sliced off the balcony support. The balcony was now falling. Twilight ran up and jumped, Vader was off the balcony. Twilight hit the cement of the assembly area. Twilight got up and flew away; she flew towards the ruins of Canterlot.

Twilight got to Canterlot, it was quiet. Twilight walked towards a rebel guard. The Rebel Guard asked “What Ma’am?” Twilight sighed and said “Prepare for any Black Jacket ambushes. They are everywhere, we lost three squads, their bodies where fished out of a lava river.” The guard nodded and said “Yes Ma’am.” Twilight looked at the Imperial Base and asked “When is your artillery bombardment supposed to begin?”

“Five minutes, the guns are loaded the gunners are taking aim”

“Tell them to aim at the power plant, the Imperial Base has 5 of them, the base is huge when I was flying over it, it seemed to go on for miles, so tell them also to aim at the enemy assembly areas.”

“The artillery is firing, I have to go to my unit we are preparing to attack.”

“I hope to talk to you again.”

“Me to Ma’am.”

Aramis was standing there in the base, the walls were shaking Aramis watched as Stormtroopers hurried down the hallway, then Boba Fett walked up to Aramis and said “Aramis, get your men ready, don’t get in my way.” Aramis nodded and said “Yes sir.” Stormtroopers hurried to assembly areas. Some hallways collapsed from the artillery. Aramis walked into the main battle room and said “Get the Mandalorians ready.”

Aramis stood there watching the Mandalorians head out, he then said to one of his Commanders “We will be defecting soon, and don’t you worry.”

Palpatine stood there watching the space battle, he then announced “Fire at will commander” On Subject X the Commander gave the sign and said “Fire on one of their main command ships.” On super laser deck, the gunners were charging everything up. Then the main gunner gave the order “Commence primary ignition.” They went straight to clicking the switches, and then the bolt of energy surged and flew towards the command ship. The command ship exploded.

Celestia stood there and screamed “Luna! Subject X is fully operational. Luna watched as Subject X started firing on their fleet. Celestia then ordered the fleet to pull back.

On the ground Twilight charged towards the Imperial Bunkers, then an AT-PT stormed out and trampled a squad, the AT-PT turned around and started shooting rounds at Twilight. Twilight dodged the rounds and ran towards a bunker. Twilight jumped onto the bunker and saw an air vent. She kicked the air vent in and entered.

Twilight exited the air vent she was inside an assembly area she walked towards a giant door, she looked at it, the door slowly opened, and it was dark inside. Twilight peered inside, she heard a monstrous roar, and then a metal foot appeared, Twilight looked up an AT-AT was walking over her, it was moving out towards the battle. Twilight entered the Imperial Base; she walked through the halls, and entered a large room.

Twilight walked carefully, she heard a moaning noise. She looked around and saw nothing, she walked towards a door, and she opened it. Nothing was there she entered the hallway, and then Vader standing there looking at her. Twilight walked towards Vader, and then Vader pushed Twilight away and closed the door behind him.

Twilight crept through the hallways, she stopped at a glass window, she looked down. All she saw was Stormtroopers patrolling, and Boba Fett walking towards a landing pad. Twilight knew this place, it was a Power Generator. Twilight walked to a door and opened it, she looked out and saw a droid factory. She walked through and looked up there where Phase 1 Dark Trooper’s on the shelves. Twilight walked to an assembly area, she saw Phase 1 Dark Troopers march out and get ready, then she heard a low voice “Target acquired.” Twilight turned around a Phase 3 Dark Trooper towered over her.

Twilight had only one option, jump off the platform, which she did. Twilight landed and ran to a door, she opened the door and she was now on the top area of the complex, she looked to the north and saw Canterlot, and then she saw Imperial Turbolasers firing into the distance. Twilight looked up as Venator class Star Destoryers fired down onto the Imperial Base, Twilight noticed the Slave 1 which was starting up.

Twilight ran towards Boba Fett who was boarding, Boba turned around and then pulled out his EE-3, he fired several rounds; Twilight whipped out her saber and deflected the blasts.

Fett then ran towards Twilight and kicked her to the ground, he attempted to choke her, and Twilight broke free and nearly killed Boba. Boba then kicked Twilight off the platform; he then jumped down and landed near her. Twilight got up and then attacked Fett, they were in a hangar, as the two fought, TIE fighters flew out they flew into battle, then a missile flew into the hangar, it was from a Venator Star Destoryer. The missile exploded and then Boba Fett used his jet pack to get out.

Twilight was in the hangar, dazed and confused. The hangar doors over her started closing. Twilight stood up and walked towards a door, she was in the middle of the base, and most of the guards would be towards the outskirts of the base defending it. Twilight sensed that Vader was near. She walked towards a door and entered; when she sensed Vader she became terrified, and uneasy.

Twilight walked through the hallways she was near the command center; Twilight entered the command room and looked around. She saw Vader who was standing there.

Luna and Celestia managed to infiltrate the Imperial base they were near Palpatine’s chamber. Luna and Celestia looked at each other and said “Let’s end this, once and for all."
