The Last Sparks

Chapter 1

Prince Jump

"Good Morning Ponyville, today is February 12th, 2015. The weather today is partly cloudy with an 80% chance of showers and maybe some flurries later on tonight. High 35 low 23," said Prince Jump's radio, trying to wake him up. "In today's news, Ponyville wins the Equestrian games, Manehattan and Cloudsdale fall in second and third."
"Wake up, honey. We've got to get to Canterlot to return our crowns." Prince Jump said.
"In other news, the newly elected Queen, Queen Verein of Ponyville City will take over for Princess Celestia and Princess Luna and become the new leader of the newly-born Ponyville Republic. Prince Jump and Princess Twilight Sparkle will resign today. We cover you today at the Coronation Ceremony."
"Oh, goodness. That's today? Better get up!" Twilight said.

Twenty Minutes later, they grabbed their things and began towards Canterlot. Once they got there, they handed their crowns and met Princess Verein.
"Hello, I am Queen Verein." Verein said to the alicorn duo.
"I am Prince- well, Jump." he said. "I've been Prince for all these years and I'm just used to it."
"That's understandable. I remember when I lost my title as something and then saying I was that thing." Verein said. "And this must be your sister, if I'm correct?"
"I'm his wife, Twilight Sparkle." Twilight introduced herself. "It's very nice to meet you!"
"Hm. You look a lot ... younger." Verein said.
"Implying?" Twilight said.
"That you look 15."
"Well, I assure you that I am indeed 17."
"Interesting. I like you. Kind of my the of pony."

They looked at each other very happily. Jump looked at them unusually, as if he knew something would happen to him and Twilight in the near future.
"Well, Scar's waiting. We need to get back home to the three." Jump said.
"Yes. I'll be here if you need me." Verein said for the last time before they left.

The crowd below them cheered goodbye as they flew back to Ponyville City. They waved back to them as they approached the simple little town.
"Scar, we're home!" Twilight said as her and Jump trotted into the door.
"Oh, hey guys." Spike said as he walked downstairs.
"Where's Scar?" Jump asked.
"He said Rainbow Dash got sick, so he swung the care over to me." Spike said.
"Oh, I hope she's okay." Twilight mumbled to herself.

Cherry Dash came downstairs a moment later.
"Hi mommy!" She said.
"Hi, baby! Did you have fun with Scar?" Twilight asked.
"Yes, but he had to leave." Cherry Dash said to her mother. "What's for lunch?"
"Anything you can find." Twilight answered.
"Okay." Cherry Dash said.

Jump and Spike were in the kitchen.
"I don't know Spike, it's as if-" Jump said to his purple companion.
"Dude, I wouldn't worry about it. For all we know so far, she likes us. Not sure about Scar, but, y'know." Spike said.
"Thanks, Spike. I don't know what I'd do without a friend like you." Jump said.
"Your welcome. Call me anytime you need me."Spike said.

Just then, as Twilight turned the radio on, an announcement was broadcast to the entire world. The first law of the Ponyville Republic.
"Fillies and Gentlecolts, as your newly elected Princess, all must obey the laws set in effect after 2:30 pm today." Princess Verein said.

Twilight asked everyone to gather around the radio. Jump and Twilight began regretting not signing the document that would've saved Equestria
"Do you think we should've saved Equestria." Twilight asked.

Jump looked at Twilight with a kind of anxious look on his face. He began thinking to himself.
"Should I tell her? I want her to know how I feel. But, I don't want her to-"

Jump was interrupted by a loud banging at the door.
"JUMP!!! TWILIGHT!!!"

They all recognized the voice at the door.
"HELP!!!! DO SOMETHING!!!! GET KING ACCORD!!!! HEELLP!!!!!" Scar said.
"Scar?? What's going on? Why do I need my father?"Jump asked.
"SOMEONE DESTROYED OUR HOUSE!!!!"
"WHAT??!!!"
"DO SOMETHING!!!!"
"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?? HEARTS AND HOOVES??!!! GET IN HERE!!!!"

Scar came in with a clearly unhealthy Rainbow Dash on his back. He said he was completely drain of magic and tried fighting off an army of attackers.
"Who?"
"They called themselves the Verein Guard Force. They beat our neighbors and friends and... poor Dashie..."

Upstairs, Twilight tried getting help from Spike and Cherry.
"They told me they were destroying 'lower class material items' and said they were infested with tiny creatures called 'germs.'..."
"Rainbow Dash, are you okay?" Twilight asked.
"They tore through my home and destroyed everything. Our wedding pictures, my favorite jacket, my radio..."
"SPIKE, GET FLUTTERSHY, NOW!!!!"
"I tried picking Dashie up. I ran as fast as I could away from my house. Little did I realise they had drained my magic."
"I'm here, jeez, mate, rustle your jimmies, bruh." Fluttershy said as she walked through the doorway.
"Thank goodness, your... here... Fluttershy what happened to you?"

Fluttershy looked like as if she had dipped her mane and tail in black ink, and robbed Carousel Boutique of all of their eyeliner. She was speaking as loud as any other pony would. She looked around and saw things were knocked over. She trotted upstairs and rudely yelled at Twilight, shoved Cherry Dash out of the way, and looked at Rainbow Dash.
"You dragged me all the way down here... for THIS??!!! ZOMBIE MOVIE MAKEUP!!!"
"What has gotten into you. You walk into my home, push my daughter into the wall, and are dressed completely absurd."
"Got a problem with it? Fine. Get out of my life!"
"FLUTTERSHY, WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! THERE IS A LIFE IN RISK OF DYING!!!"
"Oh, the poor thing." Fluttershy said sarcastically and trotted off downstairs laughing. "Have fun with your movie!"

She slammed the door. There was an erie silence throughout the house as the sky blue Pegasus began to wake up.
"T-Twilight?" Rainbow Dash called.
"RAINBOW DASH!!! YOU'RE OKAY!!!" Twilight answered, afterward turning to Spike. "Get Scar up here."

Spike quickly ran downstairs to Scar. Scar was in shock when he saw what the Verein Guard Force had done to his wife. He quickly ran up to her and held her.
"Are you sure she'll be okay?" Scar asked.

Twilight looked at Scar with a feeling of complete awe at the abilities of these soldiers.
"No. Look, call an ambulance, and get Nurse Redheart here ASAP!!!" Twilight said.

All that was left of the shaken house was Jump. He knew this was coming. He looked in shock as his home was being transformed from a place to run to, to the place he was running from.
"Twilight..." Jump said.

Cherry Dash walked slowly to her father.
"Yes?" Twilight responded.

The two walked upstairs.
"I-I tried warning you about this. Everything. I feel terrible for not telling you before." Jump said.

Twilight looked at Jump for a moment, but was quickly interrupted by sirens.
"Did somepony call for us?" said Nurse Redheart.
"I did." Jump said. "Injured Pegasus upstairs."
"Okay. EVERYPONY OUT OF THE WAY!!!" She yelled out.

The sheer power of the Verein Guard Force left everyone with shock and awe. Little did anyone realise what was to happen next. Everyone thought she'd bring peace, but a never ending party of ponies going completely crazy and destroying other's property, along with friendships for their own benefit would bring the newly born republic to a horrible start... and this is only the beginning.
