Changes are coming to Equestria as the kingdom faces an unknown future and a new dangerous threat, even more powerful than Sombra himself.

The attack on the Crystal Empire was stopped and Sombra was seemingly defeated, but it all came at a huge cost.

Celestia is dead, Luna is incapacitated, and Cadance was nearly kidnapped by a mysterious alicorn who headed a secret sisterhood.

But all of this can not compare to a threat locked up in the depths of Tartarus that yearns to break free and a sisterhood bent on vengeance for their fallen leader.

Again

It all felt like stage play to Twilight, as if everyone was a performer and everything that occurred was nothing but an act. That's what one part of her thought, but her more logical part knew that it was not an act, it really did happen, everything that occurred that day was real and she experienced it all.

"TAKE HIM TO THE DUNGEON! WE CAN'T BE TOO CAREFUL!" ordered a guard, it sounded distant to Twilight, the former alicorn and now unicorn.

"THE PRINCESS IS DEAD!" yelled another.

"NO!" screamed a distraught Cadance. "SHE CAN'T BE DEAD!"

"I SAID TAKE HIM AWAY DAMN IT!" snarled the guard. Twilight turned to see two guards drag a black coated stallion; Kage, the pony that used to be a monster, a brutal tyrant named King Sombra, out of the room.

"TWILIGHT!" yelled Kage at a unresponsive Twilight.

She felt detached to her surroundings, not even the pain from her two broken limbs registered to her, she was in a trance.

"WHO IS THIS PONY?!" asked a guard to Cadance, referring to the corpse of a cream coated red maned alicorn with a clean whole through her body.

"I-I-I don't know...she knocked me out and dragged me...something about taking me to a place where I can be safe?" Cadance had no idea who the dead alicorn was, she just related what little she knew. "She also claimed that she heads a secret sisterhood."

Twilight turned to see the heart crushing sight of her former mentor, dead, on the floor. She looked so peaceful despite her mane and coat stained in blue colored blood. Twilight felt personally responsible for her death, maybe if she didn't side with Sombra, Celestia would still be alive.

"She was supposed to outlive me..."

"Twilight?" Twilight?" the sound of someone saying her name broke her out of her trance.

"Huh?" the unicorn turned to see Cadance in front of her, clearly concerned and worried.

"You okay?"

Twilight did not know what to say next, she felt ashamed over what happened, this all happened because Sombra manipulated her. But she did feel sorry for Kage, who had to pay for what that tyrant did, he did not deserve that. "What's going to happen to Kage?" was all she asked.

Cadance sighed, not the question she wanted. "We're going to hold him prisoner until I am absolutely certain that Sombra is gone and no longer inhabiting that poor pony."

The pink alicorn noticed that some of the unicorn's limbs were broken from her abuse from the cream alicorn earlier. "Hold still Twi." her horn glowed and Twilight suddenly felt the bones in her limbs mend themselves. Cadance's horn stopped glowing once the procedure was completed. "All better now."

Twilight, without a word, walked over to the pink alicorn on her newly healed legs and wrapped her into a hug. "It's all my fault Cadance...It's all my fault!" cried the unicorn into her sister-in-law's shoulder. "Had I told Celestia my doubts about being a princess earlier...this all wouldn't happen!"

"Oh, Twiley...this was not your fault...you were manipulated by a tyrant who did everything he could to retake the throne." assured Cadance.

But that did not make the unicorn any better. "I-I-I happily gave him my virginity...not knowing that he was Sombra all along."

Cadance was indeed disappointed by Twilight's actions, but she knew that she was seduced into the dark side by a master manipulator. "For now Twiley...let's just focus on healing...Equestria is now facing an uncertain future ahead us, a future without aunt Celestia to guide us, and I need all the help I can get to make sure the transition goes smoothly...especially since I am also pregnant."

Two guards walked in and placed a sheet over Celestia's body to cover her up. Two more guards followed with a stretcher to load the body on it.

Twilight turned her attention over to the other dead alicorn; the one formally known was Mistress Superior. "Who was she Cadance? This Mistress Superior." asked Twilight.

"A pony who created a monster and used any means to try and kill it...all I know is that she heads some kind of secret sisterhood." explained the alicorn.

"She and Celestia knew each other...they knew each other very well...at one point Celestia stated that she once saw Superior as like a mother to her." stated Twilight as she remembered the things the two said before they fought.

"There's much about Celestia's past that not even I know about, all I know was that she did things that she was not proud of but necessary for the continued survival of the kingdom." she stated.

"How many students did Celestia had before me and Sunset Shimmer?" bluntly asked the lavender unicorn.

"I am not too sure of the exact number Twiley, but I would assume many since she did live and ruled for a long time."

"By the way," continued Twilight. "where was Mistress Superior going to send you to?"

"Princess Cadance?" asked a guard that trotted into the room just as Cadance was about to answer Twilight's question.

"Yes Dewy?" the princess turned to the guard.

"It's Princess Luna ma'am...she's alive!"

"What?!" both Cadance and Twilight exclaimed.

"The crystal they were encased in broke apart and now they are free and alive." explained Dewy.

"How are Luna and Trixie?" asked the unicorn.

"They're both alive, but are now in a coma, they should wake up again once their bodies get the oxygen it needs." continued the guard. "Come along, I'll take you to medical to see them."

Both mares followed Dewy out of the room, leaving a few guards behind to take the bodies away and the mirror. On the mirror, unnoticed by the guards, was a projection of Sombra, but not the evil Sombra everyone knew, but of what appeared to be a good version of him. No green and purple smoke eyes, no red horn, no armor, nothing to signify that he's a tyrant. This was the place Mistress Superior wanted Cadance and the unborn foal to go to.

At another part of Equestria stood a vast prison, where the worst of the worst offenders get sent to. Deep underground, tucked away by Celestia herself, was a cage. In the cage was a centaur patiently mediated to pass the time of his long imprisonment, his eyes suddenly opened and an evil grin formed on his face. "The Sun Princess is dead..." he chuckled a bit. "...never thought I would live to feel the day." the grin grew larger.

"Me neither." added a new voice. The prisoner turned to see a cloaked alicorn who stood next to a knocked out Cerberus.

"How did you do that?"

"Music soothes the savage beast Tirek." explained the alicorn who pointed to a self-playing lyre that played soothing music. "Anyways...yes, it is true, Princess Celestia is dead."

"Let me guess...you came here to free me from cesspool they call a prison?" he raised an eyebrow.

"Only if you remember that it will be me who makes the deals around here."

"What do you want from me?" Tirek was about suspicious by this alicorn mare.

"You see...not only was Celestia killed...but also someone who means a lot to us as well...savagely killed by her own creation."

"Mistress Superior is dead as well?" the centaur was in disbelief.

"I see you knew her."

"She was the one that lead me and my brother to Equestria...told us about the power of the magic here."

"Then I was right to assume that you'll be perfect for this mission." grinned the alicorn.

"Just tell me what to do and I'll gladly do it." smirked Tirek.

The alicorn used her magic to open the cage. "To help us seek our vengeance against those who killed Mistress and to help us gain absolute control over the kingdom."

Tirek cautiously walked out. "What do I get in return?"

"All the magic you want."

The prisoner gave a big smile of twisted satisfaction. "You have yourself a deal." he put out his hand and shook the alicorn's foreleg. The alicorn also smiled.

"Pleasure doing business with you Tirek."

Broken

"Their conditions are stable and they should awaken soon." explained the medical doctor to Cadance and Twilight. Both mares looked through the observation window to see both Trixie and Luna unconscious in their respective beds.

"I wonder how Luna would react when she hears that her sister is dead." mumbled a concerned and worried Cadance to herself.

"Cadance! Twiley!" exclaimed a grateful voice. Both mares looked over to see Shining Armor who stood before them.

"SHINING!" happily yelled the princess who ran up to her husband. Apart from a few bruises and a faint rope mark around his neck, he survived unscathed. The couple happily hugged and kissed each other.

"Is the baby okay?" asked the stallion.

"The baby is fine...I was just more worried about you!"

The happiness was cut short when Shining took a good look at her sister. A look of shame formed on his face. Twilight looked guilty in return.

Cadance knew what was going on. "Oh Shining...please go easy on Twiley, she has been through so much." she pleaded.

"She knowingly sided with a monster hun, how can I forgive that, she betrayed us!" Shining was still heartbroken over what his own sister did.

"Please Shining." spoke his sister. "What I did was horrible and stupid, I know, but it wasn't supposed to end like this, he assured me that one one would get hurt!"

"Sombra said a lot of things Twiley!" stated the stallion. "He said those things so he can pull your strings and use you as nothing but a toy!"

"HE LOVED ME!"

"HE MADE YOU THINK HE LOVED YOU!"

Awkward silence quickly fell between the siblings. "I thought you knew better than that Twiley...you had friends, a mentor, you were even a princess! But you blew it all away for some cheap thrill." Twilight felt felt even more ashamed of herself.

Cadance got in between the two. "Listen you two, this is not the time or place to start an argument, Equestria needs unity and stability more than ever."

The siblings both turned their attention to the princess and silently agreed with her. With Luna unconscious and Celestia dead, it meant that Cadance was now in charge, and they must focus on supporting her in anyway they could.

"Now, as soon as Luna awakens, I'm sending a force to find the other members of that sisterhood and put them on trail for their crimes." stated the princess.

"What about Kage?" asked Twilight who was still worried about the stallion.

"We hold him until we are certain that Sombra is completely gone from his mind and then imprison him down in Tartarus." answered the alicorn.

"TARTARUS?! WHY?!"

"For his own protection Twiley...for his own protection." explained Cadance. "There are ponies out there that want to string him up, ponies out there that want to punish him severely for all those years of mistreatment and to use him as a scapegoat for Celestia's death...they don't care if Kage was even aware of his actions, they just want to kill him." she continued. "Which is why, in order to not only protect him and to satisfy our subjects...I must send him off to Tartarus."

"BUT THAT WASN'T HIM WHO DID ALL OF THAT! IT WAS SOMBRA!" protested Twilight.

"There are ponies out there who also want YOU to pay for your involvement with him Twiley...they see you as guilty by association." added Shining.

"WHAT?!" her eyes went wide in shock. "NO!"

"They're naming you a traitor." continued Shining who was concerned for his sister's safety. It pained him to hear ponies say that kind stuff about his little sister.

The lavender mare was too stunned to say another word, her life will never be the same, her reputation will never be the same. But there was something else that concerned her the most. "Will my friends forgive me for what I have done?"

"Burn baby, burn." laughed Tirek as he watched his cage and the Cerberus that guarded it engulfed in flames. Beside him, the cloaked alicorn watched with disinterest. He turned to her. "So what now?" he asked.

"We bide our time until an opportunity presents itself." explained the alicorn.

"And when am I going to get the magic you promised me?"

"When the time is right Tirek..." she turned to leave.

"Oh no!" snarled the centaur, "I want that magic as soon as we're out of this forsaken place!"

"Why?" was all the alicorn mare said without turning around.

"We had a deal."

"Says the one that breaks them."

"We...had...a...deal!" he angrily boomed. Suddenly, the alicorn used her magic to smash Tirek against a rock wall.

"You want magic...FINE!" walked up to him and placed her horn near his neck. "I can give you so much magic that your body will explode! How about that?!" snarled the alicorn through her teeth.

"Uh..." Tirek did not expect this to happen at all.

"You're NOTHING in your weakened form." she spat one last time before she let him go. Tirek dropped to the floor.

"Well...before I go with you...there is something I need to do." said the centaur as he brushed himself off.

"And that is...?"

"Unfinished family business." he bluntly answered.

The alicorn gave Tirek a glare. "Let me guess...your brother?'

"I refuse to recognize him as my brother, he doesn't deserve to live especially after what he did to me. So many years of my life wasted because of his cowardliness, and he dares call himself a warrior following in the hoof-steps of the heroes bred in battle!" he snarled. "All I ask is for enough magic for me to find him and kill him like the coward he is!"

"That can be arranged." calmly nodded the mare. "But I must take you to our den first, nopony will ever find us there, you can stay there until the perfect opportunity comes." she instructed.

"And when will that be?"

"Why duh! The funeral!" smiled the alicorn as she turned to leave.

The sun finally set on an extremely long day for every pony involved. In the dungeons of the Crystal Palace, Kage sat in a cage, hind leg shackled to the floor with eight guards at attention. His prison was meant to not only prevent him from escaping, but also to protect him. He felt guilty for what his evil side had done, he just wanted to find a way to make people forget about what happened.

"K-Kage?" said a female voice. Kage looked up from the floor to see Twilight herself in front of the cage.

"Twilight?" he gave a smile of disbelief. "What are you doing here?"

"I was worried about you, especially after they told me what they'll do to you." she awkwardly walked up to the cage.

"I can assure you Twilight, that evil monster is dead, he died the moment he killed his creator to save you." explained Kage as he looked into the mare's eyes to show that he was being honest.

"I believe you Kage...I really do...I-I just want to know something that has been bothering me since this morning." she assured.

"What is it?"

"Was your love for me real? Or was it just tick by Sombra to get closer to me? Because I don't want to be his toy, I don't want to be anyone's toy, especially since I really do have genuine feelings for you Kage." pleaded the mare with a look of concern. She did not want to feel used like that.

Kage gave her one hard look of guilt and shame. He sighed. "I really don't know anymore Twi, I really don't know..." his heart broke.

Twilight's heart also broke, she felt ashamed of herself, she felt used like she was nothing but a tool to further the goals of a monster, did Sombra really wanted to treat her as an equal? Or did he just want her as a concubine? Tears started to flow down her cheeks.

Kage could not bear to see the mare he loved cry. "Maybe I do deserve to rot in Tartarus...every time someone get close to me, they either get hurt or die." he sighed.

"Kage...I'm sorry."

The stallion just turned his back on the mare. "I should be sorry for ruining your life." he mumbled to himself.

Twilight sadly turned around and left the dungeon. Tomorrow her friends would arrive from the fake mission that Celestia sent them on and the unicorn did not look forwards to that meeting at all, especially after all that had happened.

Author's Note

I have decided to do two chapters per week.

So tune in around then for the next two chapters.

Country

For country Tia?

No...for me.

Luna felt that she was floating on nothingness. She could not explain it, but she felt at peace and calm. The blue alicorn slowly opened her eyes to find herself actually hovering over a field of stars, nebula and clusters, this was her own domain, her own dream world. "Am I dead?" she asked herself.

"No...just dormant." corrected a familiar voice. Out of the darkness walked in her own sister herself; Princess Celestia. She smiled at Luna.

"What are doing here sis? I thought we agreed not to enter other's dreams like this?" the princess of the night could not believe this.

"But I implanted myself here to tell you something important, something you need to know before you wake up again." she explained with sadness in her voice. "I couldn't bare for you to find out AFTER you awaken."

"What do you want to tell me that is so important?" Luna was concerned.

Celestia turned to her side to reveal a large and bleeding stab wound. "I died."

"WHAT?! NO?!" Luna felt her entire world spin, she did not want to accept that fact, she secretly hopped it was another one of Celestia's pranks. Her own sister dead? No.

"I wanted to be here to share my peace with you and to bring closure...and to thank you for always being with me through the good and bad times, even when I treated you less than perfectly, you still stood up for me." Celestia gave a genuine smile. "I really wish I could turn back the time so I could listen to you and treated you better so the whole Nightmare Moon thing did not happen."

"Please...this not the time for regrets...you did what you felt was right for Equestria." Luna shook her head.

"No...I did what was best for me and MY rule!" admitted the sun princess.

"Celestia...?"

"No one is perfect Luna, especially me, but Equestria needs you now more than ever, to lead them and prove to them that the kingdom can continue without me."

Luna had no idea what to say, she was stunned into silence. "I-I-I will do my best sister...I'll do my best." she quickly grabbed Celestia into a tight hug and started to cry. "I will never let you down, I will lead Equestria into a new era, and I will be there for Twilight, try my best to be her new teacher."

"Twilight..." was all the white alicorn said before her body suddenly dissolved into dust in Luna's forelegs.

"What the...?" the blue alicorn felt her sister dissolve away, she was no longer there. Luna was stunned.

Suddenly, a bright light engulfed her realm and she felt drawn to its source.

"Kage~ Oh Kage~" hissed a voice into the black stallion's ear. He suddenly jerked himself awake only to see the hooves for another dark stallion. His eyes traveled up this dark stallion's body only to see piercing green smoky eyes that stared at him.

"NO! NO!" exclaimed a dumbstruck Kage.

"I am back Kage, in all of my magnificent bastard glory." he gloated.

"You should be dead!" growled Kage.

"Killing that bitch Mistress Superior only weakened me temporarily, it will take a lot more than that to get rid of me." he mused. "Anyways," Sombra brushed his tail under Kage's chin. "I overheard your earlier conversation with Twilight, you really have a flair for the dramatics."

"Why can't you just shut up and stay dead!?" Kage jumped back away from the shadow unicorn.

"Why can't you just admit that it was ME that Twilight was attracted too?" Sombra smirked. "She practically WANTED to get her tight cunt fucked by me." he snickered.

Kage bucked the dark king hard in the face. Sombra appeared unaffected by the hit. "Thank you sir...may I have another?" Sombra smirked again.

"You are nothing but a monster!" the other stallion spat. "And to think you risked your existence by killing Superior to save Twilight!"

"Oh please, I only did that because I knew it wouldn't have killed me, if I knew it would...things would be so much different."

"I thought you love her!"

"Not enough to risk getting myself killed that's for sure, but I do indeed love her. Perfect mind and perfect body I would say, I always have been attracted to egg-headed mares...a lot like Hikari."

That name struck a chord in Kage.

"I have seen your memories Kage...Hikari, the name of your previous lover, the name of the mare whose death inspired you to create me. It must have been difficult just lying on the ground helpless and bleeding out as those Diamond Dogs gang-banged raped her to near death in front of your eyes."

The memory caused Kage's blood to boil.

"Yes...let the anger flow through you, let those visions of the past surge through your mind, let vengeance influence your every decision. Because as long as you have those memories of her...I'll ALWAYS have a reason to exist. ALWAYS."

In a faraway city, Tirek and the mysterious alicorn walked the back alleyways to reach a small obscure shop. "What are we doing here?" asked a skeptical and cloaked Tirek.

"Patience is a MUCH needed virtue for you Tirek, what better time to learn it than in the present." calmly responded the alicorn mare as they walked inside. "Mister Regia?"

The entire shop was old, dusty and cobweb filled. The walls were nothing but shelves of bottles and beakers filled with various potions. "Y-yes?" said a gravelly old voice. The visitors saw an old and decrepit stallion hobble in. "C-can I help you?"

The alicorn removed the hood of her cloak to reveal her face to the shop owner.

"G-goody Awa?" gasped the owner.

"It's Mistress now...Superior is dead."

"W-what can I help you with?" the old stallion slowly made his way to the front counter of his shop.

"Do you have the potion that Superior asked for?"

The old stallion thought for a minute. "Oh yes." goes under the counter and shows Awa a blue-green potion. "H-here it is." he gives it to the alicorn.

"Thank you Mister Regia...you have served the Sisterhood wonderfully as our potion master these last eight decades."

"N-no problem Good-I mean-Mistress Awa." smiled the very old stallion. Awa bowed slightly to him before she turned around and left.

The alicorn walked up to the centaur. "Steal whatever magic he has left and put him out of his misery...watching him grow old makes me want to pity him, so do your thing." she then trotted away without a care.

The centaur just shrugged and walked inside with a smirk. "At least I'm getting something." he locked the front door behind him. "Hold still Mister Regia..."

Darkness

A unicorn mare slowly walked into a throne room. She stood a spot in front of the throne with a stallion on it and bowed. "What is it father?" she asked.

"I have received the most saddest of news Platinum." answered the stallion on the throne, her father. He looked at his daughter distantly with a sad expression. "Your mother is dead."

"What?! How?!" Platinum could not believe what she was hearing.

"I was in complete shock as well." the stallion got up from the throne and walked to his daughter. "But there is a mission that needs to be completed now."

"What is that father?"

"I want you to bring her killers here to face justice...can you do that for me?" the stallion stated. "I don't want your mothers death to go in vain."

"B-but...you said it yourself...travelling to another universe is very risky and-" she was in shock.

"You think I don't know that Platinum?" the stallion raised an eyebrow at his daughter.

"But I would be willing to do this to avenge her death." she bowed again.

"I'm not looking for vengeance Platinum...I'm looking for justice." he clarified. "Swift and brutal justice."

"Yes father." Platinum got up and gave her father a tight hug.

"Now remember," he whispered into her ear. "that is universe is the one where I never broke free from the dark influence of the Sisterhood...so be careful...he may look like me, but with no sense of morality or decency."

"I understand." she broke the hug, looked at her father one last time and trotted out of the room, determined to complete this mission.

It was night time at the Crystal Empire, as Cadance set the sun down below the horizon herself. It naturally did not feel right to her but she knew it was the best thing to do under the current circumstances.

"Come on hun, bed time." said Shining as he watched his wife return back from the balcony.

The pink alicorn sadly sighed. "I'm thinking of keeping the sun down for the next 48 hours as a sign of mourning Shining, I also ordered that all business fly black banners and all ponies carry black leg bands for the next 30 days as well." she began, focused on business and planning for the funeral procession.

"Just take it easy there, for the baby's sake." said a concerned Shining as he walked Cadance to their bed.

"I'll rest once this is all done and over with." said Cadance as she removed her regalia and lied down on the bed. "Everypony is looking at me now to lead them."

Shining just gave a look of concern, he was worried that his wife would push herself too far. "Just make sure you get your rest."

The princess sighed. "Celestia meant so much to me, she changed my life so much."

The white unicorn gave a tight loving hug to his wife. "I know, I know...she changed so many lives."

At the same time in the mirror room, the magic mirror started to activate on its own, something was trying to get through.

"NO!" screamed Luna in horror. "NO!"

"Hold still your highness! Hold still!" the nurses and doctors tried to restrain her to the bed so should wouldn't cause harm to others or herself.

"MY SISTER IS DEAD!" boomed Luna. "LET ME GO!" she used her magic push all the attending nurses and doctors off of her and pinned them to the walls. "WHERE'S MY SISTER! WHERE'S HER MURDERER!" she levitated out of her hospital bed.

"Your highness! Please! You just woke up from a coma!" pleaded the attending physician. He suddenly felt a force start to choke him.

"WHERE IS MY SISTER!" demanded Luna.

The physician gasped for air. "In the morgue...awaiting burial..."

"AND HER KILLER!?"

"Also...in the morgue..." he was suddenly dropped to the floor.

"HER DEATH WILL BE AVENGED! IF IT IS THE LAST THING I-" she suddenly collapses back to the ground from exhaustion. She landed with a crash to the floor as she began to softly snore.

"Inform Princess Cadance." ordered the physician as he got back up to a nurse.

At a small tavern outside of Canterlot, home to all sorts of violence and debauchery everywhere, the upstairs was home to prostitutes and their clients, while the downstairs was occupied by violent drunks and waitresses who gave out drinks and blow jobs. This place was far from civilized, the only thing that could be considered such was a single pianist on stage playing show-tunes.

In the chaos, a cloaked Awa sat at a table across from a mysterious caribou. "What color compliments Red nicely?" asked Awa to the stranger, cryptically.

"I heard black compliments it very well." answered the caribou male. "Awa." he nodded.

"Serrell." nodded Awa back.

"Is it that time again?"

"Equestria has overstayed it's welcome, it is time to spice things up."

"What do you want us caribou to do?"

"Show its citizens their rightful place, especially the mares."

"Why is the Sisterhood asking US to do this?" Serrell was confused. "Why would a bunch of male haters ask us female haters for help?"

"Because your nation is the one that has been sanctioned by other nations to near death because of your...let's just say...less than perfect gender rights issues." Awa smirked. "And last time I checked, Equestria represents everything you hate."

"By the way, thank you for having your fellow sisters forge some documents to make it look like I am a member of the diplomatic corps. I wouldn't be in Equestria without it."

"Anything to advance our plans."

"But what you're asking for is a tall order, you want us caribou, to go up against a species that have mastered the use of magic, if you haven't guess, all we have are psychic abilities, no magical powers of any kind and-"

"Tell your leader Dainn that this can help." she took out a potion and showed it to Serrell. "Tell Dainn to get his top scientists to turn this to a serum that will give you caribou that magical abilities needed to destroy the things they represent."

Serrell carefully took the potion and examined it, satisfied. "I will tell him that, by the way, what plans do you have for the for the centaur?"

"You mean Tirek?" asked Awa. "Oh, I already have something planned for him." she smirked.

On cue, the front door was kicked down and a less grayer and slightly more meatier Tirek walked in. Everyone in the tavern looked at him with fear and confusion. The centaur gave a threatening smile. "Dinner time." he chuckled.

"You have a lot of nerve coming in here busting down my door like that!" snarled the barkeeper.

"And balls." Tirek quickly grabbed the barkeeper and began to absorb all of his magic from him.

Everyone looked on with fear as the barkeeper was sucked dry of his magic. Once done, the centaur threw his victim to the floor. "Who's next?"

All the patrons and waitresses screamed as Tirek began to get to work.

As the chaos occurred, both Awa and Serrell calmly sat without saying a work, not putting any mind to what was happening.

"ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?" yelled Tirek.

Evil

"I don't get it, why would Celestia lead us on a wild goose chase?" asked a skeptical and confused Rarity to Pinkie and Applejack. The three mares where in Twilight's hot air balloon while Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy pull it through the sky.

"Ah don't know Rares, but somethin' doesn't feel right." Applejack was suspicious.

"What do you mean?"

"The fact that it is eight in the morning yet it is still night time." chimed Pinkie as she looked out at the moonlit sky.

"That's odd," began a concerned Rarity. "Celestia never misses her cue when it comes to raising the sun, something must be wrong."

"Whatever it is Rares, we won't know until we get back to Canterlot." said Applejack, a bit anxious at arriving. The capital was in sight.

At the Crystal Empire, a guard named Dewey walked into a large room that held their latest prisoner. "Okay Kage, time to start your transfer to-WHAT THE BUCK?!" she exclaimed as she saw the cage busted open, and guards on the floor, injured. She quickly ran to them.

"What happened around here?!" she asked on of her wounded guards.

"Ugh...this unicorn mare...came in here...broke the prisoner free." a guard groaned in pain. "She was a one pony army..." he quickly lost consciousness.

"Oh no." mumbled Dewey in shock.

"Where is the Sisterhood located!" demanded the mare as she used her magic to choke Kage.

"I...don't...know..." struggled the gray stallion. They were both in the pine forests north of the Crystal Empire.

"You should know! They were your creators!" snarled the mare.

"Maybe...you should...choke harder...I like this..." grinned Kage as his evil side started to come out, but it was not the only thing that decided to come out. The mare looked down between his hind legs.

"The fuck! Seriously?!" she angrily used her magic to throw Kage against a tree. "You actually get turned on by that?!"

"Only...if it is done by a female." smirked Kage as he gently got back up. "Did you like what you see?"

"I have no time to play games! I am looking for the Sisterhood!" snapped the mysterious mare.

"I am offended!" he playfully pouted. "All this time I thought you broke me out because you wanted a piece of my thick cock, but no, you just wanted to use me to further your own selfish goals."

"Like I would ever have sex with you!" the mare was disgusted at the thought.

"Then what is it that you want? Does it involve revenge?" he grinned. He knew that the only reason ponies try to find the Sisterhood is revenge for a past deed.

"No, it involves justice." said the mare. "Their leader killed my mother!"

"Your mother...you mean..." the pieces suddenly started to fit together. "Celestia?"

The mare was stunned. "How did you know?" in complete shock.

"Your face just told me." snickered Kage. "So, what's your name and where do you come from?"

"My name is Princess Platinum, I'm from an alternate universe, and I am here to bring my mother's killers to justice." she said with determination.

"So, will that happen before or after we fuck?"

Platinum just gave a very hard punch to Kage's face. "FUCK YOU!" she then turned around and started to walk in a random direction.

Kage spat out some blood. "We should be going south you know."

"Come again?" the mare stopped on her tracks.

"The Sisterhood usually like to hang around in the wastelands of the Southern frontier, near dragon territory." explained the stallion.

Platinum turned around and walked to him. "Let me tell you something, do anything inappropriate with me and I will not hesitate in cutting off your balls, got it?"

"Loud and clear." he grinned back. He then lead the way as Platinum reluctantly followed.

Caterlot was finally in view as Twilight's friends make their way in the hot air balloon. "Everythin' seems quiet." commented Applejack.

"Ooh! I see a bright light coming at us!" pointed out Pinkie.

"A what-?" before Rarity could complete her sentence, the entire balloon was hit by an explosion. Next thing she knew, but the basket started to free-fall to the ground.

"HOLD ON!" Applejack yelled.

"WE'RE COMING!" yelled Dash as she dive bombed down towards her falling friends.

The thick forest below grew closer as the two Earth ponies and unicorn continued their fall. Dash managed to swoop in and grab Rarity, while Fluttershy caught Pinkie Pie just in the nick of time. "APPLEJACK!"

Before anyone knew what happened, Applejack disappeared into the forest canopy. "APPLEJACK! NO!" yelled Dash with frustration.

As the orange mare crashed through the canopy, she managed to hit every single branch along the way. "OOF! OW! AUGH!" she would exclaim in pain with every hit. After hitting another branch, she suddenly found herself hitting the large river down below with a hard splash.

Applejack tried in vain to fight the current, but she was too hurt and the stream to strong to fight, she ended up being swept down a serious of rapids, hitting an occasional rock.

The last thing the mare felt before she lost consciousness, was falling down a tall waterfall.

"That should keep those pesky ponies distracted for a while." grinned Awa at a nearby cliff as she admired her work.

"Men, for far too long, the Equestrian kingdom has been a corrupting influence on all of our females. For too long, we caribou have been afraid of doing anything about it because of our lack of magic. But not today! Tell me men, do any of you want to live in a world where females are treated equally as males?"

"NO!"

"Do any of you want to live in a world where you have to ask for consent before you can fulfill your needs? An excuse for females to control us!"

"NO!"

"Do any of you want to live in a world where our female calf believe that they can grow up and live a life outside of sex and home?"

"NO!"

"Well, I have come with great news! Our spy has managed to come back with a potion than can be turned into a serious that will finally help us develop actually magic! Magic that we can use against those damn dirty equines! Our opportunity to show the world the glory of our culture has come upon us! ALL HAIL THE CARIBOU! ALL HAIL THE RANGIFER EMPIRE!"

"ALL HAIL DAINN!" the crowd erupts into cheers.

Forum

"Oh Kage!~" moaned Twilight in her sleep. Her body shook and shivered. "So...good~"

She dreamed that Kage was on top thrusting in and out of her.

"Do you like this my Queen? Do you like it when I make love to you every night?"

"Only for you my King~" moaned Twilight. Her body reflexively went along with the thrusting as a large wet spot formed on her bed from excitement. "Getting close~"

She felt the Kage in her dreams go faster in response eliciting an even louder moan. "Fuck~" her body shook and shivered even more. "I love you my King~ forever and always~"

"That's my...loyal and loving Queen..." he said between grunts.

She felt like she was just on the edge.

"PRINCESS TWILIGHT!" yelled Dewey as she loudly barged into the room. This caused Twilight to snap out of her dream. "Huh? What? Huh?" the unicorn fell out of her bed.

"You are needed at the infirmary immediately!" informed Dewey.

"Ugh...what for?" Twilight rubbed her head. Her entire body felt sore and her fur matted with sweat.

"Do you want the good news or the bad news first ma'am?"

"What do you mean?" as she slowly got up on all fours. "What's the good news?"

"Luna has awoken ma'am."

"And the bad?"

"Kage has escaped."

"WHAT?!" Twilight was in shock.

"APPLEJACK! APPLEJACK!" Rarity, Dash, Pinkie and Fluttershy each took their turns to yell.

They were in the middle of a large forest outside of Canterlot, they have been searching for over an hour.

"Where could she have gone?" asked a concerned Rainbow Dash.

"I don't know, she couldn't have gotten very far. Although maybe if you were a little more faster, you could've saved her Dash!" bluntly said Rarity.

"What is that supposed to mean?!" Dash was offended. She gave the unicorn a dirty look. "You have magic, why didn't you use your fancy spells to save her?"

"Do you have any idea how much concentration is required to do those kinds of spells! It's kind of hard to do so when you are free falling!" she snarled back.

"Some excuse that was!"

"Are you questioning my integrity?" Rarity raised an eyebrow.

"Ugh...girls..." Fluttershy tried to speak out, but Dash and Rarity continued their argument.

"Maybe I am!" yelled the pegasus.

Rarity placed her face against hers. "Is that a challenge?!"

"Girls..."

"I never back away from a challenge!"

"GIRLS!" yelled Fluttershy with all her might. Everyone else went dead silent and gave Fluttershy strange looks. The pegasus quickly figured out what she has done. "Oh...uh...sorry."

"No, you're right Shy, we shouldn't be fighting right now." sheepishly answered Rainbow Dash.

"We need to focus on finding Applejack right now." agreed Rarity, she felt bad for loosing her cool.

"But where could she have gone?" asked Pinkie.

In the northern pine forests, Kage and Platinum quietly walked south. They suddenly spotted an abandoned locomotive with three box cars tied to it. Kage grinned as he developed an idea. "Oh Platinum, how about we borrow that train to take us to the southern frontier? It would be much quicker."

"For once I will have to agree with you." stated Platinum.

"Good, you can get the train started, I'll go check the cars to see if there's any supplies." he instructed.

"Oh no you don't mister!" the gray unicorn exclaimed. "You are staying where I can see you!" she snarled.

"As you wish my princess." smirked the dark gray unicorn stallion with a hint of sarcasm.

They both walked to the last box car only to hear voices inside. "Okay mister, let me take care of this, I don't want you causing trouble, got it?" instructed the mare.

"Are you sure? Because I can just use my magic to snap their necks, and there we go, rag-doll."

"No killing!" she growled.

"Okay, fine, you can take care of them." offered the stallion.

"I will." she quickly walked towards the large box car opening and climbed inside. Once she got inside, she saw a group of four Earth pony stallions casually together talking, for their appearance, she could tell they were hobos. They quickly took notice.

"Hey look fellas, we have a mare joining us." pointed out a brown colored stallion.

The other three howled and cat-called her. "Aww yeah, we're getting some action tonight!"

"Take off your cape so we can see your rump better!" yelled out an orange stallion.

"You four really think I am here to give you a free show of my goods?! Were's the respect?!" snorted Platinum.

"Hey Golden! Show this mare some 'respect'." laughed the brown stallion to the yellow stallion.

"Will do." responded Golden as he quickly got up and charged up to the princess. Platinum saw that and used her magic literally grab the stallion by his balls. "AUGH!" he screamed as he felt his orbs get squeezed.

Another stallion quickly jumped on Platinum's back. "I'll save you cousin Golden!" he yelled as his forelegs wrapped around Platinum's neck. She quickly started to buck the stallion off, but that caused her to loose her focus and let Golden go.

Suddenly, she was roped by the neck by the orange stallion and pulled to the floor.

"Thanks for saving my balls Ray." said Golden to the orange stallion.

"No problem." he said with an absurdly deep voice as he pulled tight on the rope, choking Platinum.

The mare tried to use her magic to get herself free, but it was difficult as she felt the air leave her lungs.

"Let's wait until this bitch passes out before we fuck her." said the brown stallion.

"Good idea." agreed the other three as they watch Platinum struggle.

"Not so fast gentlecolts." said a new voice. All the stallions turned to see Kage enter. All of then were in awe.

"Who are you?" asked the brown stallion. He was impressed by what he was seeing.

"Just a friend who is here to make a deal, and you?" responded a smug Kage.

"The name is Sly, and these three are my hobo pals, Ray, Golden and his cousin Jewel Tone. What's your offer?"

"I will offer my body in place of my female friend over there." Kage smiled with confidence. "I know you hobos go both ways."

"Well, it has been a while since we last seen a stallion with a rump you can bounce bits off, so you have got yourself a deal." agreed Sly. He turned to Ray. "Ray, cut the bitch loose, but make sure she stays to watch the show."

"Yes sir." said Ray as he did as told.

"What are you doing Kage?!" Platinum was in shock.

"Negotiating." answered Kage.

"Okay friend, you can start the show off by sucking my cock." Sly sat down and spread his hind legs to reveal his growing erection.

"Yes sir." smiled Kage as he seductively walked towards Sly and his molted erection. He was impressed, its length reached his chest. With a smile he began to lick the rod along its length.

"Mmm...yeah, suck that cock." moaned Sly as his three friends and Platinum watched.

"You know, you can suck on my horn while I suck on your cock." smirked Kage.

"Good idea." agreed Sly as he watched Kage resume his licking. Sly began to lick Kage's horn as he moaned.

Kage licked the tip before he wrapped his whole mouth around the erection. Sly did the same as both stallions moaned. The other three stallions began to hoof themselves from the show.

Sly suddenly began to feel Kage's horn heat up inside his mouth. "What the buck?!" he said, his voice muffled. Suddenly, a beam of magic shot out of the back of Sly's head, spraying skull and brain matter everywhere.

Everyone looked on with shock. Kage, with a smile, pushed the corpse off of him. "At least he went out with a bang." he turned to the other three. "Okay you three fags, looks like I'm your dom today." he grinned at the three stallions. "I want you three to help me and Platinum run the train, got it?"

The three stallions silently nod in fear.

"Good, and if we make it there in half the time, Platinum will give free pass to all three of her holes."

"WHAT?!" exclaimed Platinum.

"Yes sir!" the stallions bowed down.

"Now get to work!"

The stallions bowed one last time and quickly ran to the train engine.

"You see Platinum, now THAT'S how you negotiate." the dark stallion laughed.

Platinum was in shock.

TO BE CONTINUED...

Glory

"Oh my little pony, wake up." cooed a soothing voice. Applejack's head pounded as she struggled to open her eyes and make out her surroundings.

"Where am ah?" she groaned. Her voice weak, she felt pain across her body.

"We found you by the river bank, you must have gone through several rapids and waterfalls judging by your injuries." said the voice.

Applejack managed to fully open her eyes as her vision started to gain focus again. She found herself in a large one room cabin, inside was a full kitchen in the middle of a large hospital bed filled room. "What is this place?" she turned to the voice to see a large caribou female with a nurse's cap and a red collar.

"A hospital on the edge of our great nation of Rangifer." explained the caribou nurse.

The mare has heard stories about the Caribou nation, a "no mare's land" where males rule and females have no rights.

"Now don't worry my pony, we are in a very remote part of the kingdom, you should be fine as long as you stay put and don't leave." instructed the nurse.

Applejack tried to move but felt a surge of pain shoot through her body. "What...happened to me?" she groaned in pain.

"Broke several ribs and a leg, don't worry, I managed to fix you up." she assured. "Now rest and take it easy."

"Ah can't, ah need to find my friends, on a mission-" Applejack tried to get up but the nurse stopped her.

"Let me soothe you." the nurse closed her eyes and her small antlers glowed. Applejack suddenly started to see visions of her family.

"Mama! Papa! Can we go play in the mud?!"

"Ah don't see why not, just as long as you wash yourself immediatly afterwards."

"YAY! You're the best parents ever!"

"Mama? Papa?" was the last thing the mare said with a smile before she fell asleep back on the bed.

"Works every time." smiled the nurse as she left the mare in peace to work on something else.

"How is she doctor?" asked Cadance as she, Shining and Twilight walked with the medical doctor to a medical room.

"She's fine, but she is still a bit emotional about the news of her sisters death." explained the doctor. "I suggest than you avoid mentioning anything upsetting to her."

"Like Sombra's escape?" chimed Shining.

"Especially that your highness." the doctor then opened the door to reveal a plain white room with Luna on the bed, back to the group and curled up tightly on the bed. "Go easy on her." he told the three royals before he left the room.

"Aunt Luna?" began Cadance with concern.

"Is...she...really dead?" mumbled Luna in a quiet voice.

"I am afraid so Aunt Luna." she was saddened to break her the news. "But she died defending the crystal empire, she died a hero."

"Was her death quick? Did she die peacefully?" the moon princess asked without facing the three visitors.

"She did." lied Twilight. "Her death was quick and peaceful."

"Was it Sombra that killed her?"

"No...it was this alicorn that went by the name Mistress Superior." answered Shining Armor.

Luna quickly shot out of bed and turned to the three ponies in her room. That name was all too familiar to her. "MISTRESS SUPERIOR?!"

"You know her?" asked Cadance.

"Know her...she raised us!"

"WHAT?!" Twilight, Cadance and Shining say with complete shock.

"Look, there is a lot about me and my sisters past that you have no idea about. Mistress Superior was the closest thing we ever had to a mother, to hear that it was her that killed Celestia is something that is hard to swallow." explained the blue alicorn. She got up and walked to a nearby dresser drawer. "Where's my regalia? Where's my armor?"

"Aunt Luna, what are you doing?!"

"To bring that sisterhood to justice and make sure Superior's new successor gets hanged for high treason!" she continued to search.

"Hanging?!" Twilight could not believe what Luna was talking about. "That sounds more like vengeance! Celestia has always taught me that justice must always take precedence over vengeance, it has no place in Equestria!"

The alicorn princess looked at her sister's former student with pity. "I have always felt that my sister has shielded you too much from how this world actually works, and I have always told her that she was making a mistake in doing that."

"Shielding me?!"

"Like the fact that you are the last of a long line of students my sister had, and only two of them ever succeeded in becoming alicorn princesses, everypony else failed, each failure feeling like another stab in her heart, each failure more painful than the last!"

"Celestia never told me that..." the unicorn was in complete shock.

"Celestia never told a lot of things." she turned over to her niece. "I demand that I be given some armor so I can lead an expedition to capture Superior's successor and her accomplices."

"Are you sure about this Auntie?" Cadance was very doubtful of her aunt's strength to do this.

"They have meddled in our affairs for long enough."

The pink alicorn sighed. "I'll have a guard fetch your armor for you."

"Thank you Cadance."

"But I am not doing this for vengeance, I am doing this for Aunt Celestia!"

"Understood."

Cadance turned to leave the room to get a guard to give her aunt her armor.

Twilight was in too much of a shock. What other things have Celestia failed to mention to her? How many students did she have before her? She felt her long held faith to her mentor fade with every passing moment. "Maybe Kage was right..."

In Canterlot, the castle remained empty apart from a skeleton crew of workers and guards that kept the place clean and working for when Luna or Cadance returned to rule Equestria from here. Flash Sentry was the head guard at the castle and walked around the castle as he made sure all of the guards under him did their duties.

"Another quiet...night..." Flash said as he realized it was actually past noon yet the sky remained dark as a reminder of Celestia's recent death.

He walked down the hallway with the stained glass windows. Still quiet. "It's so eerie to hear this place be so quiet and-" his words were quickly interrupted by a loud explosion that shattered all the stained glass windows.

"FOR THE GLORY OF THE GREAT TIREK!" boomed a voice as the guard suddenly felt his magic drain from him, his world slowly became gray.

"Help...me..." he weakly cried as his energy drained away.

Hero

The train chugged along the Equestrian frontier on its way south to the badlands. On the locomotive, three pony hostage worked to drive the train, while in the box car attached to it, Platinum and a Sombra controlled Kage waited for when they arrived.

Platinum just stared at the dark stallion with suspicion. Kage noticed. "What?"

"What kind of monster kills a stallion like that?" she asked. The gory details still played in her mind.

"A creative one." he smirked. "What? Did seeing that make you wet?"

"You're a bastard."

"Both literally and figuratively." he answered with a laugh. He didn't care, he's been called worse.

"You could've been a very successful ruler who lead the Crystal Empire into a new golden age that would surpass the glory and prosperity of Equestria and eventually marry the mare of your dreams." explained Platinum. "But you squandered it on power, control and greed instead."

"I am a KING, I can do whatever I please."

"Even enslave your subjects and treat mares as cock sleeves?" snapped the unicorn mare. "Your heart has truly grown cold and black from greed."

"How would you know!?"

Before Platinum could answer, the train suddenly stopped. "What's going on?" said an annoyed Kage as he quickly got off.

"Uh...we have reached the end of the line sir." announced Golden as he pointed out the fact that the rails stop at a sign that read 'now entering disputed territory.'

"Boys, we have arrived at the badlands." smiled Kage. "Good work you three."

"Thanks sir." responded Ray.

"So tell me, what do you three do when not riding the rails?" Kage asked with curiosity.

"Well, me and cousin Ray are full time hobos while Jewel would walk the streets of Fillydelphia part-time as a trap." explained Golden.

"A trap? I haven't meet one in years."

"That I am sir." responded Jewel.

"Anyways, you three deserve a reward for helping me and my friend." said the dark stallion. "Tell me what you most desire and I'll give it to you."

"Actually, me and my cousin want a chance to double team your female friend." responded Golden.

"Spit roast her." agreed Ray. Both of them had hungry looks on their eyes.

"And you Jewel? What do you want?" he turned to the effeminate stallion.

"Why, I want to serve under you, to help you in your goal, whatever it may be." he bowed. "You sir have inspired me to take vengeance on those who have abused me or bullied me for all these years for my life style." he explained. "Plus, I am looking for a new master since you killed Sly."

Kage thought about what the stallion said. "Very well then, I will make you my most loyal adviser and guard, but it will require some strength, so it will have to wait until we make your return to the Crystal Empire." he told Jewel. "As for the two of you, your reward is waiting for you in the box car." he smirked at Golden and Ray

Both stallions eagerly ran to the box car and climbed in, only to find it completely empty. "Hey, where did she go?" asked a confused Golden.

Suddenly, the doors closed and locked shut. "What's going on here?!" the cart started to fill up with gray smoke. "This isn't funny!"

"What's wrong with having some fun?" giggled Platinum in a seductive voice. She walked out of the corner as her hips sashayed. "You two boys need to relax and enjoy the ride." she walked up between them, she rubbed her tail under each of their chins. "How wants to claim this mare first?" she winked as her marehood did the same.

Outside, Kage, Jewel and Platinum watched with a mixture of surprise and amusement. "Right now the only thing those two are fucking is air." smirked the unicorn mare.

"A hallucinatory spell, impressive." smiled Kage, entertained by the deception.

"That'll keep them busy for about a day or two, now let's get going, we have a Sisterhood to find." she ordered.

"Lead the way my princess." smirked the dark stallion as he and his new guard Jewel follow behind.

Inside, the fake Platinum was being fucked in the ass by Ray while she sucked on Golden's cock with muffled moans. But the stallions have no idea that there is no mare between them, just thin air.

Luna was at the temporary morgue underneath the crystal palace. She sat by a table that had her sister's body on it, covered in a white sheet. Luna sat in complete silence.

Both Twilight and Cadance where in the main hall, also silent until Twilight spoke up. "Cadance?"

"Yes Twilight?"

"Can I ask you a favor?" Twilight had no idea if it would work or not, but she might as well try.

"What is it?" responded the princess.

"You specialize in love right?"

"Yes, yes I do, and your point?"

"Do you know spells that will remove my feelings for Sombra from me forever? If so, can you do it on me?" pleaded the unicorn.

Cadance was in shock. "Twilight...such a spell would be too risky...if anything goes wrong I would risk not only removing your feelings for him, but also your feelings for anything else." she continued. "If anything goes wrong, you could end up as an emotionless zombie forever."

"Or maybe I can help." added a new voice. Both mares turned to see Luna walk in.

"Luna?" they both say in shock.

"The best course of action would be for me enter your mind and fight the Sombra within you."

"No..." suddenly hissed a voice inside Twilight's mind. "Uh...I don't know..."

"Although we need to defeat the physical Sombra first." explained Luna.

Luna and Cadance continued their discussion as Twilight completely zoned out. "I want you to be my Queen, to serve me buy my side forever and to help you unlock your true potential. My feelings for you were genuine Twilight."

Before the voice in her head continued, Dewey suddenly walked in. "Princesses! Bad news!"

"What is it Dewey?" asked Cadance with concern.

"The Royal Palace in Canterlot...it has been attacked!"

"What?! By what force?!" demanded Luna.

"Tirek ma'am...Tirek."

Luna's face and ears fell flat with shocking realization. "Oh no..."

Iron

"You have got to be kidding me!" exclaimed Rainbow Dash as she stood dumbstruck at the sight of the Canterlot castle on fire. Her friends Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie did the same. "What happened here?!"

"We don't know." exclaimed a random unicorn as the entire city watched in horror at the castle burning. "This is bad...first Celestia dies and now this!"

"WHAT?!" the four mares exclaim with shock.

Before the random unicorn stallion could explain further a nearby residential building exploded with high force. Everyone screamed and panicked. "Do not be alarmed my ponies!" yelled a new voice. Everyone turned to see a cloaked mare as she stood in front of the gates to the burning castle. "Do not be alarmed."

She was quickly joined by a large and muscular red and black centaur. He looked very intimidating. "Do as she says or else you'll end like this guard." the centaur pointed at a weak and gray pegasus guard, what's left of Flash Sentry.

"The...horror..." he weakly mumbled in his catatonic state.

All the ponies quietened down to hear what this mare had to say...or else.

"Very well," she began. "as you may have already figured out, your dear and precious Princess Celestia is dead. She died saving the Crystal Empire from the return of a very evil pony but alas, her sacrifice was for not." she continued. "The monster is still on the loose, ready to take revenge against us at any time, he already had his weak willed queen brainwash Princess Cadance to join their side, which means that WE are your only hope at protection and guidance in this turbulent time."

"Who are you?!" yelled a spectator.

"Who I am doesn't matter, what truly matters is who I work with." she answered. "I work for a sisterhood that will gladly help protect you all and keep everything running smoothly until you set yourselves up your own government, just as we did before when we helped untie the tribes so many millenia ago."

Confused murmurs among the crowd. A brave cyan hoof rose up above the crowd. "I CALL HORSE MANURE!"

The cloaked mare just raised an eyebrow. "Who speaks out against me?" she yells with confusion.

"ME!" yelled the cyan pony. "RAINBOW DASH!" she walked out of the crowd and stood before the cloaked mare.

"Oh...Rainbow Dash...I have heard so many things about you, the Element of Loyalty I presume."

"That's me." stated Dash with a smug look on her face.

"Did you know that the monster Sombra has made an alliance with the caribou to invade and conquer Equestria at its weakest and his queen Twilight brainwashed Cadance to let it happen?" she announced to everyone's shock and horror.

"I don't believe you!" Dash shook her head. "What proof do you have?"

The cloaked mare took out a scroll. "I have here a written declaration of war from the caribou's dear leader Dainn. And I quote!"

It has come to my attention that the Princesses Celestia and Luna have become an unwanted influence within the borders of the Rangifer kingdom. I, the dearest leader of my people will take it upon myself to declare and prepare for an inevitable war with Equestria the moment either of the princesses die. For it will be our only chance to ever defeat them. We may not have the magic, but we do have the psychic strength to fight and show those mares their proper place in nature! To be obedient sex toys for our amusement! ALL HAIL THE RANGIFER KINGDOM! ALL HAIL THE PATRIARCHY!"

All the mares in the audience scream with terror. "I discovered this letter before the fire started hidden in Celestia's desk."

"We still don't believe you!" Dash refused to believe such a thing. She did not trust this mare at all.

"Too bad" smirked the cloaked mare. She looked up to the centaur and the centaur took that as his cue.

"Huh?" the pegasus mare was confused as to what was going on. Suddenly, she got her answer as she was engulfed by a beam of magic from the centaur. "AHHH...." she screamed in pain.

"DASH!" Fluttershy, Rarity and Pinkie yell with shock.

"Either you're with us, or against us." the mysterious mare announced to the crowd as they saw Dash loose her color.

"Why...no..." yelled Dash in pain as all of her magic was taken away from her. As soon as she was absorbed dry, the centaur stopped.

"WHO ELSE WANTS TO JOIN THIS WEAK MARE?!" boomed the centaur.

Nopony dared say a word.

"By the way...if any of you see a group of mares by the names of Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rarity...I want you to politely tell them that they are wanted for treason under the charge of conspiring with a known tool of Sombra...the sisterhood thanks you for your cooperation." finished the cloaked mare.

The entire crowd turned to stare at the three mares only to see a flash of blue light engulf them an disappear. "Where did they go?" one spectator exclaimed.

"Do you want me to go after them ma'am?" asked Tirek.

"Let's give them a few hours head start, until then, I want to test how obedient the Element of Loyalty can be." Awa looked down at the weakened and catatonic Rainbow Dash. She had plans for her.

Far away, the caribou nurse was at a sink with the dishes that needed to be cleaned. She suddenly got a knock on the door. She peeked through the window in front of the sink to see two army males waiting. "Crud, can't let them know I am harboring a foreigner." she quickly went over to a sleeping Applejack and opened the night stand next to the bed. "This should help disguise you." she pick up from the night stand a piece of caribou horn and placed it behind Applejack's ear. The nurse quickly got her nurse cap and collar straightened up and walked to the door.

"Oh, good evening you two, what services can I offer you two brave souls of the great Rangifer Army?" the nurse said to them in standard caribou etiquette. A female must always ask a visiting male what kind of service they want.

"Just to answer us some questions ma'am." said one soldier. "I'm Corporal Alart and this is my colleague Corporal Americ and we're hear because we heard reports of a suspected foreigner within our country borders. More specifically an Equestrian pony female." both soldiers wore a medieval helmet, chain mail and tunics over the chain mail.

"Well, I haven't seen any walk by here, but you are free to look around if you want." the nurse offered.

"Why don't I hear the radio ma'am?" stated Americ with suspicion and being the observant one of the two, as symbolized by a pair of eyes on his tunic.

"Oh, the radio is on just like the law requires, I just turned it down since I currently have a patient recuperating." the nurse pointed to Applejack still sleeping in the bed.

"Ah, we see." nodded Alart as they two soldiers looked through every nook and cranny for any hiding places. "Don't mind us ma'am, we're just following standard procedure."

To the nurse's relief, both soldiers bypassed Applejack each and every time. The deception worked.

"Everything checks out sir." announced Americ. He turned over to the nurse. "Just make sure we know the radio is still on ma'am, don't want an important female like you to suffer a day in the stocks."

"Oh...I'll keep that in mind sirs." nodded the nurse with relief. "So, is there anything I can offer you before you leave?"

Americ turned to his colleague. "Sir, since you are the senior among-st us I would like to ask for permission to satisfy my urges with this female nurse."

"Permission denied corporal, we have an order to complete first." answered Alart. "Once we're done we can go into town and visit a brothel, until then, we continue our mission, understood?"

"Yes sir." he saluted his senior colleague with disappointment in his voice.

"Thank you for the cooperation ma'am." Alart slightly bowed to the nurse before he and his colleague left. The front door closed and the nurse was once again alone. She breathed a sigh of relief.

"The things I do to help undermine the system." she sighed.

"You asked for me Awa." said the caribou male Serrell as he met with Awa at the Canterlot train station.

"Yes...I have a gift to give you, something to show my gratitude for doing your duty." said Awa. "But first, how's the potion going?"

"It has just been delivered to Dainn just as you said."

"Good." smirked the mare. "Now here's your gift." Awa used her magic to open a train car door. "She's right inside ready to get her wings plucked and brainwashed."

"An Equestrian female? For me? How exotic." smirked Serrell. "She should fetch a hefty price back home."

"But she's not just some Equestrian female...she's one of the elements of harmony." Awa showed Serrell inside the train car to show a weak Rainbow Dash chained up and spread eagle against the wall. "Didn't Dainn always say that he wanted a harem consisting of the six elements of harmony?"

"Please...let me go..." weakly pleaded Dash with fear. She did not want to face her fate.

"Now, now Loyalty, just relax and everything will be fine." Awa used her magic to place a black collar around Dash's neck.

"Dainn will love this." laughed Serrell.

"Please..."

"I knew he would." laughed Awa as well as she suddenly placed a black bag over Rainbow Dash's head.

Darkness...

Journey

High above the clouds
Calling a name so lovely
Rises my heart

Sombra could still remember all those love poems, haiku and sonnets he wrote to his beloved. It was all he could offer her since he had nothing in terms of money. He was surprised that a mare would ever fall in love with a dirt poor gem finder bastard like himself. But there is nothing he could do to bring her back, no poem or sonnet will ever succeed in that regard.

"What are you thinking about Sombra?" remarked Platinum as she, Sombra and Jewel made their way through the badlands.

"A past I can never get back." he sighed.

"Hikari?"

Sombra raised an eyebrow. "How did you know?"

"I'll be honest with you, I come from an alternate universe where you turned good after defeating the Diamond Dogs, and I don't care if you'll be believe what I'll say next, but here it goes; I am your daughter." answered Platinum with seriousness.

Sombra was not too surprised. "Who's the mother?" was all he wanted to know.

"It is best that you don't know that...I'm already giving everything away as it is."

Sombra decided to change the subject reluctantly. "Anyways, yes, it was Hikari that forced me to become the warrior I am, to end such a horrible war." Platinum could see the war weariness in his eyes. "You do a lot of strange things when you're in love or about to die...in that case, both."

"So, what are you planning to do once the entire sisterhood is destroyed?"

"Return to my Queen and throne, so I can live the rest of my days in peace." answered Sombra. "Rule the way my Queen wants to rule."

"I doubt Cadance and Luna will allow that."

"If I cannot at least have my Queen, then I'll have no choice but to exile myself faraway. What's the point in having one if I can't have the other?"

"HEY!" yelled Jewel. "I see a carving!" he pointed to a small plateau with a strange symbol etched on the side.

Sombra immediately recognized the symbol. "We've made it, the sisterhood should be in one of those cave entrances on the plateau."

"Let's get climbing then." announced Platinum.

"Twilight, you and Cadance will be staying here to keep the Crystal Empire safe in case me and Shining experience trouble." instructed Luna who now wore armor. "Keep the elements safe as well."

"I will Luna...be careful." said Twilight, she was apprehensive about Luna's decision to lead an army to Canterlot.

"And please be careful Shining!" said Cadance who worried for her husbands safety.

"I will do my best to return to you." assured the stallion to his wife.

Luna and the guards got on their flying paladins and lifted off into the sky. "REMEMBER CELESTIA! FIGHT FOR EQUESTRIA!" the guards cheer as their battle cry as they disappeared past the horizon.

Come to me my Queen...you know you want it... hissed a voice within Twilight's mind. She tried to shake it off but the voice won't go away.

"You okay Twi?" asked Cadance with concern.

"Oh...yeah...I'm fine...I just have to go rest up...long day and all..." Twilight lied so as to not concern Cadance. She did not her to know that Sombra still lurked in her mind.

"I know the feeling...we need to rest." the pink princess agreed. They both quietly walked back inside the palace, hoping for the best.

The caribou nurse quickly started to pack essential items into a saddle bag as her patient Applejack started to stir awake. "Ugh...how long was ah out?"

"A few hours." answered the nurse as she continued the packing. Applejack looked on with confusion.

"What's goin' on?" she got up from the bed.

"You need to leave this kingdom before they find out who you really are." explained the nurse. "We don't take to kindly to foreigners."

"How?"

"Don't worry, as long as you have that piece of antler with you, everyone will see you as a fellow caribou." she explained as she finished packing. "Just don't do anything that attracts attention."

"How is that possible?"

"Just a little psychic trick." she said. "Anyways, the nearest border checkpoint is about 15 clicks up the road past the nearest town and you have enough supplies and money to get you there safely." she continued. "Also, don't forget this." she gave Applejack a blank piece of paper.

"But it's blank." the mare was confused.

"Just show the border guards the paper and tell them that you are on a diplomatic mission to the griffin empire, they'll believe you." Applejack accepts the bag and supplies. "But I should warn you, whatever you see in that town, ignore it and pretend it is normal."

"What do ya mean?"

"You will see some horrible things there, so please, whatever you do, ignore it and continue walking to the checkpoint, understood?" the nurse gave Applejack a serious look. "Promise me because it's for your own good."

"Ah...ah...promise...how bad can it be?"

"You have no idea."

"Awa, I see an army coming at us, do you want me to fight them?" asked Tirek as he pointed to the sky. They were both in front of burnt Canterlot castle.

"No need Tirek, just stand back and let me handle it." smirked the cloaked Awa.

Soon, Luna and Shining landed in front of the pair, while the rest of the fighting for surrounded the city awaiting their next command. "You." growled Luna as she walked up to Awa.

"It's been so long Luna, I thought you died back there."

"You are under arrest for conspiracy to kill Celestia and high treason." pointed out the princess.

"Under what authority?"

"According to the Equestrian bill of rights, a princess has every right to arrest a subject for any suspected treasonous acts!"

"Oh Luna, since when were you such a stickler for the rules, you're the ruler now, you can change the laws whenever you damn want." smirked Awa.

"My sisters death must be avenged!" Luna was clearly upset and angry. "You and your sisterhood will pay dearly for such an act!"

"Well...since I am being arrested, I might as well gloat about my plan." she removed her cloak to reveal a blue coated alicorn mare.

"Let me guess, your way to avenge the death of Mistress Superior?"

"WRONG!" spat Awa. "You are wrong! Do you want to try again, double or nothing?"

"What are you talking about?" Luna was confused.

"This was never for revenge, this was never about Mistress Superior! It was about fulfilling the duties of the sisterhood!" exclaimed Awa. "To bring balance to the world!"

Luna just looked on like Awa was going mad. "Come again?"

"You see, the sisterhood was formed long ago to make sure no one civilization got too dominant for too long, and it just so happens that it is Equestria's turn to fall."

"WHAT?!"

"Oh, and I do believe there is an even more serious threat coming." she said with smug satisfaction.

"Oh really? Something more serious than you and your sisterhood?" Luna didn't believe a word she said.

"Yup...your replacements are coming, and everything will change."

"Who?"

"Why should I tell you? It will be better if you found out instead."

"YOU WILL TELL ME!" Luna spat, tired of playing this game.

"I'm sorry Luna, but Equestria has just overstayed its welcome in the world stage. But I'm sure there will be a place for you in the new world order." she turned to the large centaur. "Tirek, take care of the soldiers, but leave the princess to me."

"TELL ME NOW!" the princess snorted, clearly angry.

"Patience is a virtue my Luna." laughed Awa.

Luna gave a frustrated scream and lunged at the mysterious alicorn. Awa in response used her magic to teleport herself and Luna to a completely different location. Both alicorns found themselves on top of a plateau in the middle of a desert. Both got up starring each other down, ready to attack. "Very well then, let's settle this the old fashion way," she placed a force field around the plateau to prevent anyone from leaving or entering. "we fight to the death."

"Very well then." agreed Luna. She took a deep breath and let the darkness within her consume her. Her coat turned black, her mane whispery like the night sky. She was turning into the creature that ponies feared the most; Nightmare Moon.

"Impressive." smirked Awa.

"BRING IT ON!" boomed Nightmare Moon, ready to attack.

With a scream, both charged at each other.

At the badlands, Sombra entered the cave that was the home of the sisterhood. He saw that it was exactly the way he remembered it, but completely empty. "Where did they go?" asked Jewel.

"I don't know, this is the correct place, I remember being here when I became who I am."

"So where could they be now?" asked Platinum as she looked around.

"I don't know, but I do have a bad feeling about this." responded the shadow unicorn, until something quickly dawned on him. "Unless..."

Little did anyone knew, but someone tripped a thin wire on the cave floor.

"IT'S A TRAP!"

Before Sombra could clarify, a large explosion tore through the cave engulfing everyone.

Dewey limped as fast as she could towards Cadance's chambers. "Cadance! Cadance!" she yelled as she barged through the door. Her blood dripped on the floor from a large gash. "Princess!" she collapsed on the floor once inside the chambers.

"What happened to you?" Cadance quickly ran up to her. "Who did this?"

"The Elements of Harmony...have been stolen..." she moaned in pain.

"WHAT?! HOW?!"

"Twilight ma'am...it was Twilight who did this..." Dewey confirmed.

Cadance was dumbfounded, unable to find a word to say. The only thing she could get out of her mouth was "why...?"

Twilight was far away from the Crystal Empire in a hot air balloon. She had all the elements with her and was ready to fight. "Something is wrong...very wrong...and I intend to find out." she had no idea where she was going, but she'll let the voice in her head guide her to where she needed to go.

"Dear leader!" barged a caribou guard as he quickly bowed down to the floor to his leader who had his back turned to the guard while in front of a window, overlooking the capitol.

"What is it Gefroy?" was all the dear leader said without emotion, back still turned towards him.

"Dear leader, the potion is ready to used and distributed among the ranks sir."

"Good work, tell them to start the distribution and that we'll attack once the sun rises again." stated the leader, still with no emotion.

"Yes sir." Gefroy bowed one last time before he left the leader to be alone in his office.

"Soon...the whole world will live our philosophy and the natural order things restored. It would be nice to add some 'exotic' members to my harem while I am at it as well." he continued to talk to himself. "Oh well, I'll worry about that when the time comes." he smirked. "For the whole world would soon know who I am...Dainn."

TO BE CONTINUED...

Knowledge

Applejack cautiously walked along a dirt path through the misty pine forest filled landscape that is the Rangifer Kingdom. Their winters cold and damp with occasional snow and with their summers dry and warm. She nervously continued along as she hoped no one would recognize her as a pony, a foreigner, a female.

Going by her was a cart that was pulled by a caribou female in a black color how was occasionally whipped to go faster by a male on the cart. Applejack looked down at the collar that nurse gave her, a purple one, to symbolize a female who is loyal to the regime but cannot be used, either through high social standing, on business or just too young, pregnant or ill to be used. She also looked at the piece of antler around her neck, so far it seemed to be working since the few caribou she walked past just look at her before they moved on like she wasn't important. They see her as a fellow caribou and not a pony.

She soon came across the sight of a medium sized city down in the valley below. "Well, this must be the capital" She began her long decent down the hill towards the city.

Twenty five years ago, the Rangifer Kingdom was at it's low, with extremely high unemployment and hyper inflation of up to 1,000% at one point. The subjects were desperate for a change in leadership, and so they turned to the charismatic nineteen year old leader of the Worker's Party of the Rangifer Kingdom; Dainn.

Dainn sat in his darkened screening room as he watched an old newsreel of his rise to power. At least once a week he would look himself for hours on end in this room as he watched old movies, newsreels and propaganda pieces. It was a hidden compulsion of his, or at least one of his compulsions, he could feel his mental state fall away to these compulsions the older he got. He must remain strong.

"Dear leader?" said Gefroy as he walked in and bowed.

Dainn rolled his eyes in annoyance from the interruption. "What now Gefroy?"

"Sorry for the interruption sir, but I have received some good news."

"And that is?" he raised an eyebrow.

"The Equestrian guards, they have been weakened considerably."

"How?"

"They were defeated by the centaur sir, he has done his job." he gladly said.

"And the remaining princesses?"

"Luna has disappeared, Cadance is vulnerable and we have one of Princess Sparkle's friends on the way as a bargaining ship."

Dainn was extremely pleased by the news. "Tell the soldiers I want Canterlot captured first, I want all willing citizens to be taken prisoner and for the soldier to set up re-education camps for them."

"What about those that fight against us?"

"Easy Gefroy." Dainn smirked. "We will do what we always do to the problem subjects...we either brainwash or lobotomize them."

Gefroy gave an evil laugh. "The troops will greatly enjoy their exotic prizes."

"They will." smirked Dainn. "Now leave me alone for a bit, I will come out to meet my new exotic prize shortly, you are dismissed Gefroy."

Dainn's loyal guard bowed out and left. "I like him, served me well these last twelve years...I feel sorry for liquidating him along with the rest of the troops should they ever fail in their invasion." he calmly returned back to the newsreel.

"Sex? Will a male please come here and take my virginity away...it's free and you can cum inside me...anyone?" announced a blindfolded young female caribou tied to a stock. "Is someone willing to get rid of my shameful virginity? My family will not take me back in unless it is gone." she continued.

Applejack stood there completely dumbstruck and disturbed by the sight. She quickly decided to continue her walk as soon as she saw an interested male take up the poor female's offer. "Ah feel like ah'm on a completely different planet." she said to herself stunned.

Every corner Applejack turned, she would see the tragic sight of caribou females being sexually abused in some sick and twisted way. Most of them with signs tied around their necks. "Stole money" "Pleasured self without master's permission" "Inciting feminism" "Refused to give consent." etc etc. It almost made the orange mare want to gag and lose lunch.

Things got even worse when she encountered another unexpected sight; a caribou MALE tied to a stock. A sign around his neck read; "Charge: Conspiracy to promote feminist ideals. Charge: For all males (and red collar females with strap-ons) to use and treat him as a female for 24 hours." He had tears in his eyes as he sadly looked down.

Applejack felt sorry for him. "Ya okay mister?"

He didn't bother to look up. "Just shove something up my ass and leave, I have learned my lesson and now I just want to serve my time." he said with defeat.

"But how did ya 'promote feminist ideals'?" asked Applejack.

The male looked up to speak to her, but quickly saw this female for what she really was. "You're not a caribou!"

"Ya but-"

"GUARDS! GUARDS! WE HAVE AN ILLEGAL FEMALE FOREIGNER! GUARDS!" he yelled as loud as he could. The mare quickly took that as her cue to leave him alone and hide. Applejack ran down an alleyway and ran as far away as she could. Once she was sure no one followed her, she stopped and panted.

"Ah should try to keep my mouth shut and lay low, but that's easier said than done." as she said that, she noticed a large herd of caribou gather around a nearby train station. "What's this?"

She went up to the crowd and asked a caribou next to her. "What's goin' on?"

"The arrival of a new exotic pet for our dear leader." answered one who did not pay much attention to her.

"An exotic pet?" Applejack was confused by the statement.

The train car's doors opened to reveal Serrell as he confidently walked out while he pulled on a leash. "What's happenin'?" commented the orange mare. Soon, the thing that was connected to the leash that Serrell pulled on revealed itself. "Ya have got to be kiddin' me!"

To Applejack's surprise, out came out a sad and depressed Rainbow Dash, her wings roped around her body with a silver collar and leash. She also looked pale.

The entire crowd turned hostile against the pegasus mare as they taunted her. "Stay in the bedroom where you belong!" "You'll work better as our dear leader's slave!" "You are a bad influence on females!" on and on the crowd went. Dash just keep her face down at the ground in shame and sadness, she felt weak and useless from what Tirek did to her. She did briefly look at the crowd to confirm where she was but something caught her eye, a certain Earth pony mare. "Applejack?"

"Rainbow Dash?"

Before Dash could do anything, she was pulled along by Serrell through the main avenue of the city as it headed towards Dainn's palace. Applejack felt her blood boil, she couldn't see a free treated like this. "Ah will not stand by no longer, ah'm not leavin' here until ah save my friend, even if it kills me!" she snarled to herself in determination. She quickly slipped away from the crowd to come up with new plan.

Dainn sat in his chair in the great hall of his palace as he saw Serrell and his gift march in with an entourage or guards and advisers. "Oh dear and beloved leader." Serrell bowed down to Dainn. "I bring you a most exotic and valuable gift from the Equestrian kingdom, one of the famed elements of harmony, the one called Rainbow Dash!" he dragged the mare by the leash up to Dainn.

The leader got up and walked over to the miserable looking mare. Dash was afraid in her weakened condition, she kept her eyes locked on the floor beneath her in shame. Dainn found it disrespectful.

"Look into my eyes female!" Dainn sternly ordered.

The rainbow maned mare refused to do so. "No..."

"I said look into my eyes!" he repeated with a more forceful tone.

Dash did not say a word. Although she was quickly met by a hard slap to the face by the leader of the caribou. "LOOK INTO MY EYES YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT!" he snarled with anger.

The startled mare quickly cooperated and looked into Dainn's soulless black eyes. At the same time, he looked into Dash's dull magenta eyes with a piercing and intimidating stare. "Element of harmony my butt, you are nothing but a weak and pathetic female, a wannabe athlete who with a large ego, yes, I can read you...I know everything there is to know from your eyes." he then literally spat on Dash's face.

Dash did not bother in wiping her face, his words hit her hard. The spark in her was gone.

Dainn returned back to his chair. "Take her to my harem and tell the cows to make her nice and clean for me when I return. If she puts up a fight, clip her wings."

Everyone in the room saluted and several guards dragged the pegasus mare away by the leash.

Dainn watch without care. "Gefroy...!"

"Yes sir?" his loyal guard walked in a saluted.

"We march at dawn, understood?"

"Yes sir, I'll go tell the men." Gefroy bowed and marched out.

The leader was along in the great hall once again, mythical scenes and frescoes painted on all walls and the ceiling. He always looked to the ancient past, especially the stories of the kingdom's mythical founder; Belenus. He hoped to one day join the pantheon and be remembered for millennia to come. "I'll be the next Belenus...I'll lead this kingdom to a new golden age, we will finally fulfill our divine destiny, to rule this planet under the caribou!"

TO BE CONTINUED...

Lady

Inside the dark Golden Oak's library, a bright light flashed and out popped Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie still huddled together.

They looked around at their quiet surroundings to see that they are safe. "So...what now?" asked Fluttershy who did not know what to do.

"I...don't...know..." mumbled a stunned Rarity.

"Rarity?"

"I said I DON'T KNOW!" snapped the unicorn at her pegasus friend.

Pinkie and Fluttershy looked on with stunned silence.

"Applejack is lost, Rainbow Dash has been captured, Twilight needs our help and now we're the most wanted ponies in Equestria, there is nothing we can do!"

"I know..." sighed Pinkie "this whole thing has gotten dark lately." she looked down on the floor dejected.

The three mares stood in silence. All they could do now was to wait for something else to happen.

"Kage!" yelled a distant voice to him. The voice sounded familiar to him for some reason...could it be?

"Mmmm...Twilight?" he groaned as his eyes opened. His vision cleared to confirm that the one mare who loves him was standing over him with a look of concern. "What happened?"

"You inhaled a lot of smoke from the fire." Twilight explained to the dark stallion.

"Fire?"

Twilight used her hoof to point to a nearby cave entrance billowing smoke and flames. His memory slowly came back to him. "Ugh...they booby trapped the whole thing...damn it." he groaned with frustration. He slowly got back up on all fours. "And the others?"

"We're okay." responded Platinum as she finished healing Jewel. "We should've known they would rig the place to blow once they abandon it."

Kage suddenly found himself no longer in his Sombra form, he was for now a normal unicorn stallion. He turned over to the mare he hoped still loved him deep inside. "Why are you here Twi?"

"I had a feeling deep inside that you needed me." explained Twilight, she could really find the words to what brought her here.

"Even after I tried to push you away?" Kage admitted as he turned away in shame. "Even after I told you the lie that maybe my Sombra side used you to further his plans?"

"What?"

"I really do love you, and I did all of that because I really did have feelings for you, I loved you since we first met long ago." he admitted with shame. "But I felt horrible that you would fall in love with a monster like me."

Twilight walked up to him and used her hoof to force his face to hers. "I did not fall in love with a monster Kage...I fell in love with a stallion that wanted help, and if that means dealing with the consequences of such an affair, then so be it." the mare explained as her purple eyes met his dark gray ones.

"But why?"

"Because you were the first pony in my life to have shown me a better destiny for myself, and not one forced upon me all of my life."

Kage just looked on with a guilty expression. "Maybe it's best that I just move to a place far away from here where no one can find me." he started to walk off towards a random direction.

"But...we need you!" pleaded Twilight. "My friends need you! The princesses need you! The entirety of Equestria needs you!"

Kage stopped dead in his tracks at the last sentence. "What...?"

"Equestria is in danger and I have a feeling that sisterhood is behind it all." clarified Twilight with pleading eyes.

"You are asking me, the vessel of an authoritarian greedy slave driving dictator, to save Equestria?" the stallion turned around with a raised eyebrow.

"You're the only pony I know besides my friends and the princesses that can stand a chance against this threat." continued Twilight.

"And I think I know what they are up to." interrupted Platinum. Both Twilight and Kage looked on at her with confusion. Platinum levitates over to the two a singed document. "Has anyone here heard of a centaur named Tirek?"

Twilight took the document and read it. "Celestia told me stories about him, how he sucked Equestria dry of all magic until his brother betrayed him and aided the princesses in defeating him."

"Well, apparently, it was the sisterhood that lead Tirek and his brother to Equestria all those centuries ago and have been communicating with him since." explained Platinum.

"Why?" asked Kage.

"To weaken Equestria enough so that it can easily be defeated by another empire." continued Platinum. "The sisterhood love to pick and choose empires to promote and which ones to destroy, all for the sake of changing the world order, and I have a feeling that they felt Equestria has been on top long enough and that it was time for a new empire to take its place as the dominant one."

"But which ones?" wondered Twilight. "The Griffins are in a severe inflation crisis because of their miserly ways, the Minotaurs are too business focused, the Diamond Dogs has no significant military force, every other nation is a close ally that would never dare to invade us which only leaves the-"

"Caribou of the Rangifer Kingdom." completed Kage.

"Caribou? Really?" the mare just looked on with disbelief. "They're nothing but a joke among the nations of the planet that no one ever takes seriously, they just see it as an insignificant kingdom that treats its females horribly and tries to be taken seriously, and fail miserably at it."

"Which makes them a perfect candidate to be the next empire that the sisterhood support, no one would ever suspect it." answered Platinum ominously.

"But why would a misandric group of priestesses obsessed with changing the world order do business with a misogynistic kingdom obsessed with keeping females as fuck toys?" stated Kage with disbelief.

"Like I said, because no one would suspect such an alliance to happen." explained Platinum.

"And they're using Tirek to weaken Equestria enough so that the Caribou can stand a chance in succeeding." realized Twilight.

"Let's just hope it is not too late." stated a stunned Kage.

Moans and groans echoed across the landscape as hundreds of guards lay on the ground weak and injured. Many of them lost their will to live let alone fight. Standing over them, the giant centaur towered over them with smug satisfaction. "That was too easy." he mused at the sight.

He looked around at the field of soldiers for their captain only to see that he was by one of his legs. Tirek picked him up by the neck. "I thought you would give me a challenge Captain Armor."

Shining struggled as the centaur squeezed his grip around his neck.

"What...do you...want!" he said while he struggled to breathe.

"Revenge, but not against you." he dropped the captain down to the ground. "Let's just say I have some 'family business' to take care of." he chuckled. He turned around to walk away but quickly remembered something. "Oh," he looked back. "tell your wife and the princesses that you let everypony down." he chuckled again before he walked away back to his homeland.

Shining tried to drag himself after the centaur, but he no longer had the strength to do so. His magic gone, and his life force also gone. He did let everyone down.

"I'm sorry Cadance....I'm sorry...Twi..." he groaned as a tear fell from his eye.

On top of a plateau at a dessert, both Nightmare Moon and Awa still fought each other under the force field. It was a long and evenly matched battle. Both of them stared each other down, heavily breathing.

"Let me guess, you underestimated me like always?" smirked Awa. "I can see why your 'amazing' sister never gave you the respect you deserve."

"Shut up!" snarled Nightmare Moon, the words have hit a nerve.

"Forever destined to live under her shadow, where all the praise and attention from your 'loyal' subjects will all go to her." Awa kept going with a chuckle. "But I do have a feeling that by defeating me, you can claim you saved Equestria and finally gain the love of subjects that you clearly deserve!"

"SHUT UP!"

"Think about it Luna, you have finally become the sole and unchallenged ruler of Equestria with two other princesses fully subordinate to you. For once, the night shall finally rule over the land and everyone will praise you endlessly for it."

The dark alicorn's blood started to boil with rage.

"Think about it, think about how the darkness and night shall prevail!" the priestess laughed maniacally.

"YOU WANT DARKNESS?!" she boomed as dark tendrils suddenly appeared from her. "I CAN SHOW YOU DARKNESS!"

The tendrils suddenly came at Awa who was pleasantly surprised at the turn of events. "Oh shit..." she said before she was suddenly grabbed by the tendrils and was immediately squeezed.

"When I rule, I will do it in a way that makes my sister and my subjects proud, and I'll do it better!" Nightmare Moon spat as she mentally controlled the tendrils to squeeze her. "Now get ready to relive your most traumatic event!" she laughed.

Awa was suddenly electrocuted by the tendrils before being unceremoniously dropped back to the floor. The priestess slowly got back up only to see that she was smaller and with a blank flank. "What's going on?" her voice was higher as well, she has been turned into a filly.

"Hey sis." said a slightly older male voice. "It's time for your punishment."

"B-b-brother?!" Awa back away from that voice, she turned to see that her assumption was correct, there in front of her stood her older brother. "Please, no, I'm sorry."

"You should've taught twice before you told on me about sneaking out!" he snarled as a collar and leash suddenly appeared around Awa's neck.

"Brother, no!"

Nightmare Moon saw the whole the thing unfold with smug satisfaction, from her view, Awa was still an adult and her brother was not there. Everything that the priestess was experiencing was in her mind. The dark alicorn saw her reenact the sick things her older brother has done to her, Nightmare Moon felt horrible for her, but at the same time, felt satisfied that the priestess was getting what she deserved.

"Please brother, not in there again, it's too thick." Awa pleaded to her imaginary projection of her brother. She writhe on the floor in pain as if it was actually happening to her.

"What a waste..." was all Nightmare Moon said at the sight.

Awa continued to moan and groan from what she was feeling. The dark alicorn walked up to the priestess and placed a hoof on her chest to keep her still for what she will do next.

"Mommy...help..." pleaded Awa in a foalish voice.

"No one is going to help you now." responded the dark princess as her horn glowed. She shot a strong beam right between her eyes silencing the former priestess once and for all. The force field soon came down and the landscape was once again quiet.

The princess slowly returned herself back to normal without saying a word. She looked at the lifeless body before looking at the horizon at Celestia's sun hanging to the horizon. Luna gave a loud primal scream of anger in response to what just happened.

Equestria is not out of the woods yet.

Monster

Princess Cadance was worried.

"Damn it, what has gotten into Twilight all of a sudden? Why did she run away like that?" she wondered to herself as she paced. "At least she didn't take the Elements of Harmony." she was at least thankful for that.

Cadance suspected that Twilight went off to help out...him. The thought of her step-sister actually helping such a monster made her shiver. She turned her attention to the window in her chambers, only to find an unexpected sight; Celestia's sun raising above the horizon.

"What? Impossible!" she was stunned. "I don't remember setting the sun to rise so soon."

"That's because it did it on its own Princess." responded a new voice. Cadance looked around to find herself surrounded by cloaked unicorns.

"Huh?" the princess looked around. "How did you get in here? This room is shielded from teleportation spells."

"We of the sisterhood are skilled at breaking through such defensive spells." explained one of the cloaked unicorns.

"You..." she knew exactly who they were. "the ones that created Sombra, tried to kidnap me and murdered Celestia! About time you came out of hiding." she hissed. "Why are you raising the sun?"

"We have nothing to do with the sun, it is much too far away for any unicorn or alicorn to control." one of them explained. "But I guess your dearest Celestia never told you that?" she smirked with pleasure.

Cadance just growled. "Whatever you have planned, it would never work, the elements of harmony and the power of friendship can defeat you!"

"Blah, blah, blah, friendship, blah, blah, blah, harmony." the cloaked unicorn taunted. "Those foalish things will no longer save you now, besides, we happened to have done some four hooves discount shopping on the way."

Another cloaked unicorn opened a box to reveal all six elements inside. "Too easy."

Cadance was stunned. "But...but...how?"

"We are to send you message Princess Cadance." she continued.

"And that is...?" the princess raised an eyebrow.

"Abdicate the throne and voluntarily exile yourself to wherever the mirror takes you." she explained. "The elements and the Crystal Empire will be safe under our protection."

"Why would I do such a thing?" Cadance spat.

The group that surrounded her began to ominously laugh with delight. The laughs sent shivers down Cadance's back, she just froze in shock at the sight and sounds.

Suddenly, a bright beam of magic hits a chandelier from the ceiling, cutting the rope and causing it to fall. Before anyone can react, the crystal chandelier landed right next to the spokespony. Everyone looked at each other with confusion. "Okay, who did that?!" the mysterious pony growled.

Another pony walked into the room. "You should know who I am!" spat the new pony. Cadance turned to see a sight she would have never expected. "The great and powerful Trixie!" she growled as she walked in, her horn glowed bright. "Trixie doesn't know who you mares are, and Trixie doesn't care, because you all mean nothing to me!"

"The same with us!" they immediately fired beams of magic at Trixie, but she proceeded to run off and dodge. Cadance took the opportunity to sneak away and run off to find a guard to help her.

At the badlands, Platinum and Jewel were busy as they got the hot air balloon ready for their flight back to Canterlot. At the same time, Kage looked out at the horizon, the sun slowly rose above it. "Hey!" said Platinum to the dark stallion, Kage turned his head at her. "We're almost ready to leave, mind getting Twilight?". Kage silently nodded and walked off to get her.

Twilight was alone in deep thought, she was worried about her friends, her family and many other things that flooded her mind. She was confused at what to do. "Twi?"

The unicorn turned to see Kage before her. "Kage?"

"We're almost ready to leave Twi, you okay?" he looked concerned.

"Just so much on my mind." Twilight sighed. "I don't even know why I ran off to find you."

Kage looked on with worry. "Twi....you know I meant every single word I said to you, I love you."

The mare looked on with concerned eyes. "I just want to know one thing Kage."

"What is it?"

"What's more important to you, taking back the throne, or me?" she said. It was something she really wanted to know. Was she truly loved? Or just a stepping stone to regaining his lost throne.

"Twi?" he was stunned. "You know that YOU are the most important thing to me, I don't want the throne if it means not having you."

"But what about your other self? What does he think?" continued Twilight, she still had some trouble trying to believe. "I must know. I must speak to him directly to make sure."

"Are you sure about that?" Kage was apprehensive at turning back into that monster again.

"Certain." with that, she placed her horn against Kage's and let her magic do the work.

Twilight soon found herself in a dark and empty world. She felt shivers run across her body as she looked around, only to see a large throne made of dark crystal in the smoky distance. The unicorn walked up to the throne to encounter Sombra himself as he sat on the throne with a board expression, playing chess with himself.

"Sombra?" cautiously asked Twilight.

"Oh hello there, about time I received an audience at my court." he smiled as he threw the chess board away to give his full attention to the mare in front of him. "What can King Sombra do for you?"

"I want to know your intentions Sombra, I want to know if you are just using this opportunity to take back your throne." she explained. She had no time for games.

"You are smart, I'll give you that, and so damn sexy, I am surprised no stallion has gotten to you already." he mused with a smug smile. "You will make the perfect queen for me." the statement sent shivers down Twilight's back.

"What are your intentions!" she stomped her hoof.

Sombra stood up with a smug smile and walked over to the mare. "What's wrong? Didn't our little session at the vault mean anything to you? You are saying that all those times you moaned my name was nothing but-" he was met by a hard slap to the face.

Sombra gave a serious look at Twilight, only to see the mare tearing up. "I...don't...know..." she mumbled with confusion. "My heart wants all of that to be meaningful, but my mind keeps telling me it's all a lie." she looked down in shame. "I feel so used, I feel so ashamed, ashamed of the fact I lost my virginity to a monster like you."

The dark stallion just looked on with worry. "I thought it meant something." was all he said before he sat back down on his throne. "I wanted to give you the whole world and make you the most happiest queen in all of the land."

Twilight looked on with confusion.

"I also wanted to make you the most powerful queen in the world and unlock your true potential. The power that Celestia was too afraid to unleash and forced an unwanted destiny. With my help, I can make you the most powerful wielder of magic in the whole world."

"Even more powerful than Starswirl?" the mare asked.

"Even more powerful than that perverted old man." he confirmed. "You were going to have it all."

"But what about my friends and family?"

"No harm will come to your friends and family, the worst I was going to do with them was exile them far away if they ever refuse to swear their loyalty to me." he explained.

"I don't know..." Twilight was still unsure. Sombra sensed that and with a clap of his hooves, a new throne sprang up that was exactly like Sombra's only purple. It had Twilight's cutie mark engraved on it.

"This throne by my side could be yours." the dark king explained. He clapped his hooves again, to reveal a sign that read "Queen Twilight Sparkle's School of Science, Technology, Engineering and Magic", much to Twilight's shock and awe. "This school could be yours."

"M-My very own school?"

"Your very own school." he confirmed.

Twilight was unsure what to do. But the thought of her being the greatest wielder of magic of all time with her own school that teaches both science and magic as well was all to tempting for the mare.

"Besides," the dark stallion began. "the caribou invading reminds so much of when the Diamond Dogs invaded the Crystal Empire such a long time ago..." his voice trailed off as a viewing portal appearing, showing a normal Sombra with what appeared to be his old marefriend. "...Hikari..." he said upon seeing the portal, his eyes watered from the thought of failing to save her.

Twilight could see how happy the couple was as they walked down the forest, only to be surrounded by a pack of Diamond Dogs in military armor. The young Sombra tried to fight them off but was quickly overpowered, beaten and stabbed. Twilight turned to see the dark king do something that was not possible; cry.

"I'm so sorry...I did what I had to do..." he mumbled with shame. The mare looked at the portal to see Sombra's marefriend get beaten as well by the five Diamond Dogs before they pinned her to the ground and start to gang rape her, all before the young Sombra lost consciousness, ending the flashback.

The dark stallion quickly dried his tears. "Never again...never again..."

"You do want to do defeat the caribou, to bring closure to yourself..." said Twilight. "...to avenge what happened so long ago."

Sombra just walked over to his throne and sat down. "Diamond Dogs, Caribou, they are all the same to me...despite decimating the Diamond Dogs's army, I was not able to kill the ones that killed her, they survived because their king wanted some form of revenge against me should they ever get defeated." he explained. "They lived out the rest of their days mining gems and receiving a hefty veterans pension...they never once got the justice they deserved."

Twilight walked up to the king and placed her face near his. "Yes?" asked a confused king before he was cut off by a tender kiss from the mare. Sombra accepted it and kissed her back.

Twilight suddenly found herself back in the outside world, her lips still locked with the stallion, she quickly broke the kiss only to see that the stallion was no longer Kage, but Sombra himself, complete with red-green eyes and red horn.

"Where's Kage?" asked a stunned Twilight from the change.

"We're one and the same..." was all he said before he went over to the balloon to join Platinum and Jewel. Twilight reluctantly followed him at least somewhat assured of his intentions.

"Sombra?" asked a stunned Platinum to her alternate father.

"No time to talk, we have an army to build." he answered as he boarded the balloon. "We have caribou rumps to kick."

"So where are we going?" asked a skeptical Princess Platinum as she Jewel and Twilight also climbed aboard.

"Canterlot...we need to defend the capital at all costs." the shadow stallion stated.

Twilight was a bit nervous for putting her trust into Sombra, but he's the only hope they have in repelling the upcoming invasion.

Over at the Rangifer Kingdom, all the caribou soldiers prepared for their march to Equestria. Each soldier put on their armor and chain-mail, they also got their flintlock muskets and rifles, pikes and spears.

At the same time, they got their mechanized cavalry fleet ready, a line of motorized bicycles and hovercraft formed at the border gates, awaiting orders to start their march.

Gefroy was giving his troops one final inspection. "Remember men, we are about to enter female dominated territory, what do you in the event that a female tries to brainwash you into accepting their calls for equality?" he asked his unit.

"We silence them with our dicks, sir!" smirked his troops in response.

"And then what?"

"We arrest them and take them away for re-education, sir!" the answered with more seriousness.

"That's what I want to hear, now dismiss!"

The troops saluted Gefroy before they marched off to their positions.

Inside the palace, Dainn watched from his quarters his army getting ready for their march. He carefully put on his armor and chain-mail, taking extra care in making everything look as straight as possible, he not only wanted to look perfect for his crowning moment, but to also satisfy his growing compulsion for order and cleanliness. His ears suddenly perked up when he heard the sounds of whimpering coming from his bed.

A bruised caribou female was curled up on his bed, her body shivered from the abuse she suffered. "Oh please," dryly began Dainn. "you were asking for me to go rough on you, don't deny it." was all he said as he walked out of his chambers without a care. "Females are like children, they never want take responsibility for their actions." he motioned for his servants to take the female back to his harem to be cleaned up and left determined to succeed in the upcoming invasion.

At the same time, Applejack managed to sneak-in into the palace without no one noticing, most of the security distracted by the troop mobilization. She climbed in through the bathroom window and walked out into a corridor. "Now, if ah was a harem, where would ah be located at?" thought the orange mare to herself. "If only ah had a sign to help me." She suddenly looked up to see a sign.

ᐋᕇᒻ
==>

"That's a start, but ah can't read fancy caribou writin'." remarked Applejack. Suddenly, the sign's letters changed into the Equestrian writing system. "What the?!" said a stunned mare as the sign suddenly became readable.

Harem
==>

Applejack quickly assumed that the piece of antler that the nurse gave her and now was carrying translated the text for her. "Mighty convenient if ah say so myself." she mused before she suddenly heard the clicking sounds of a group of caribou's heading her way. Applejack quickly hid behind a potted plant that happened to be nearby.

She peaked from behind to see two male servants taken a badly bruised female who had a face of deep shame. Applejack knew that kind of face from anywhere, it was the face of someone who was sexually violated against their will, she immediately felt her blood boil. "These caribou are no good dirty monsters and they deserve their comeuppance, ah'll make sure of that." she thought to herself as she silently followed behind the group.

"Dash, ah'm comin' for ya, just hold on tight!" she thought, determined more than ever to save her friend from a horrible fate.

Obey

A one thousand strong caribou army marched along the countryside along with their hovercraft and motorized bicycles. In front of the troops was a hovercraft that carried their commanding officer Dainn and his second-in-command Gefroy.

"The moment we cross the border into Equestria, I want the troops to split up and go town to town and tell these ponies that are now under Caribou military occupation and martial law until further notice." Dainn instructed without much emotion. Gefroy nodded and wrote everything down on a piece of paper before giving it away to a messenger on a bike next their hovercraft.

As soon as the messenger disappeared into the crowd to relay the order, they reached the border checkpoint. All they saw was a single shack with a wooden beam block the road and a single female guard. "What the?" said the guard as she awoke from her nap to see a massive line of soldiers at the gate. "What is this?" she asked. "You know we charge per axle and legs right?"

Gefroy got off and walked up to the guard. "This is an invasion ma'am." he explained. "We are here to conquer and occupy your kingdom." he continued. "Now I suggest you step aside and let us through."

"If this is an invasion, then how come I never received a formal deceleration of war?" asked the guard. "You need one in order to invade according to the Rules of War Convention." she warned.

Every caribou within earshot just laughed at her statement. "You silly females," chuckled Gefroy. "trying to place rules into warfare." he continued. "Last time I checked ma'am, war has ZERO rules." he stated. "Now you either let us in peacefully or we'll force our way through." he warned.

The female border guard was defiant. "I'm sorry, but we Equestrian's follow the rules, so unless you produce a formal document declaring war against us within the next 30 seconds, I'm going to have to tell you turn back and never return until you do have it."

Gefroy turned Dainn for approval, only to be met by an approving nod from him. Gefroy's antlers began to glow. "You will let us cross." he instructed.

"I will let you cross." said the guard who was suddenly in a catatonic state. She obediently moved the wooden barrier away from the road and cleared the path for them. "Enjoy your stay in Equestria." she motioned the army in without a thought.

"Thank you ma'am, we'll make sure you end up with a red collar once we're done." the second-in-command complimented before he lead the caribou army inside. The guard thought nothing of it.

Gefroy gave a confident smirk, his psychic abilities were top notch, but second only to the great Dainn himself. Unfortunately there are limits, such as that it hardly works on other caribou and it is extremely difficult to override the brain's survival defenses, but rumor has it that Dainn is the only one capable of doing it.

In the rocky shrub desert far away, Luna walked, her armor and regalia gone, she felt unworthy to wear those things after what she did. She promised herself to never let the monster out, but she did and she killed in the most horrifying manner; making her worst nightmares come true. Luna looked around for any familiar landmarks, yet still does not recognize her surroundings, she can't teleport home without knowing where she is first.

She soon saw a large cloud of dust appear in the far horizon. "A dust storm?" wondered the princess to herself. But upon closer inspection, she saw it was not the case, it was in fact a stampede headed towards her. "Wait...I know them." she looked closer to see it was a stampede of cattle. "I must be in the just outside the prairie." she then witnessed the cattle immediately stop in their tracks before.

"Woah there," announced a grown bull as the entire herd stopped around the Equestrian princess. Luna stood her ground, uncertain about what was going to happen next. "Princess Luna?" asked the bull. The voice sounded familiar to her.

"Texas I assume." nodded Luna.

"What are you doing all the way out here?" Texas asked.

"It is a very long story, but what I can say is that I need help getting my bearings correct so I can go home, Equestria is in trouble." the princess explained.

"What kind of trouble ma'am?"

"An invasion Texas, and from a most dreaded enemy." she stated.

"I wish us cattle can help your kingdom, but we are in the middle of a bad drought and we must find a new place to graze." the bull explained. As he said that, a young calf intently listened with interest. "But I promise that I'll send aid once we are able to."

"You can help by pointing me to the nearest landmark." Luna stated.

"Well, that'll be Chimney rock just about a mile to the north." Texas pointed out.

"Chimney rock, I have heard of it and I have been there, I know where I am now, thanks." she nodded, glad that once she reaches the landmark, she can teleport to Canterlot. "Good luck in finding a new place to graze."

"And good luck repelling the invasion." smiled Texas.

The both bowed to each other before Luna made her way to the landmark with new determination. "And I'll do it without revealing the monster." she promised herself.

The hot air balloon landed in front of the Royal Library, Twilight, Sombra, Platinum and Jewel disembarked to see the whole city abandoned and silent, the palace intact, but also abandoned and with some parts damaged. "I hope the forbidden section is okay, we need those books." worried Twilight.

"I'm sure it is, but we need to hide them so no one else can get them." stated Sombra with determination before he walked inside. Twilight and Platinum followed suit while Jewel kept watch of the hot air balloon.

The three unicorns trotted down to the basement where the forbidden section of located. Tucked away underground and far away from the main entrance. They soon reached a large golden cage separating the forbidden books from the rest of the archive, to Twilight's surprise, the main door was slightly open. "That's odd, this door is always locked and closed." she stated suspiciously.

Sombra took that as his cue to get ready to attack as the three slowly walked through the cage wall door. "Bealucræft léoma" he heard someone whisper before a magic beam crossed before them, stopping them in their tracks. Sombra quickly turned into shadow and rushed himself to the source of the whisper. A scream was heard as Sombra quickly returned with a dark furred unicorn in his shadowy grasp. "Put me down!" she exclaimed. The shadow stallion did as told and dropped her to the floor. "ooof."

"Okay, who are you?" asked Twilight to the fallen unicorn.

The unicorn got up on all fours and gathered her bearings. "My name is Oleander, and I'm the keeper and protector of the forbidden books around here." she said. "Or at least was forced to be one by Princess Celestia." she stated.

"Oleander, the Element of Magic in my world, it can't be, her mane is white not black." said Platinum in her mind.

"I heard legends about you," began the lavender unicorn. "you sneaked into the abandoned royal castle and stole the most dangerous spell book ever written; the Unicornomicon." she stated. "She exiled you down here to prevent yourself from hurting others and to protect you."

"That was five years ago Miss Twilight." stated Oleander. "My entire village and family shunned me for becoming an abomination." she explained.

"Why did you do that?" asked Twilight.

"Because the book told me of a prophecy that said that should Princess fall and the balance be disrupted, six new elements of harmony from around the planet would appear to bring balance to the world and set things right." the dark mare explained. "And from what I heard, everything he said is coming true." she looked over to the Unicornomicon that rested peacefully on a book stand. A green and purple glow emanated from the book.

"The sisterhood used one of the spells from that book to turn me into what I am today." explained Sombra as he walked over to the book.

"I suggest you don't-" Oleander warned before Sombra opened the book before four glowing purple eyes appeared on the pages.

"Who is't did wake me from mine own slumb'r!" said a timid yet intimidating voice. Sombra looked on blankly, not phased at all.

"It's me Fred, Sombra, remember?" he answered dryly. "You seriously need to work on your intimidation skills."

"S-Sombra?!" the book stuttered. "Oh my goodness, that is really you, how long has it been since I was taken away from your possession by the Royal sisters?"

"Too long to count Fred." the dark king answered. "And how have been holding up in here?"

"Boring sometimes, but that mare over there is a quick study, she would make a much better match for you Sombra." said the book as a clawed hand appeared and pointed at Oleander.

"That would be nice, but I prefer my mares to have some field experience and proper training." clarified the stallion.

"So what is it that brings you here?" asked Fred who sounded curious.

"I want you to help me teach Twilight Sparkle the dark arts." explained Sombra. "She has trained under Celestia and is the Element of Magic, so she has put her expertise into practice, but Celestia has shielded her from the dark arts and her heart is too pure as her mind is too innocent."

"Breaking her in would takes years under normal conditions sir." said the book. "Why not go with Oleander instead, her heart is already dark and her mind is already corrupted."

"I know there is a way to make the process quicker Fred." the dark king said. "And our time is too short enough for me to consider that option."

"You could kill her sir." Fred said completely stunned.

Twilight heard the entire thing and walked up to the stallion and book. "I can do this." she said determinedly. "I'm willing to take the risk."

Sombra was stunned. "Are you sure Twi?" he asked. "If you do this, you will forever be corrupted, there will be no turning back from this." he warned.

"I'm willing to take that risk if it means saving Equestria." nodded the mare with some doubt, but willingness to do this.

Sombra looked into the mare's eyes to see determination in them. He really did not want to subject the mare he loves through this, but if she was that adamant, he had no choice but to comply. He turned to Platinum and Oleander. "Platinum, take the hot air balloon and go to the Crystal Empire to retrieve the Elements of Harmony, while Oleander can serve as your guard."

"What do you have planned Sombra?" asked Platinum to her alternate father.

"You should know." he said ominously. Without saying a word, Platinum just nodded and then escorted Oleander out of the library. The dark unicorn mare looked back with worry, she also knew what was going to happen.

The dark king turned to his love. "Last time I'll ask Twi, are you absolutely certain that you want to go through this?" he asked. He secretly hopped she would say no, but he knew that was not going to happen.

"I am absolutely sure Sombra." Twilight confirmed. "For Equestria..."

The stallion nodded and levitated the book over to himself. "Fred, turn to the page detailing the corruption ceremony." he asked as the pages began to quickly flip to the spell.

That was the last thing Twilight could remember before the ordeal began.

At the same time, the caribou army reached the first village on the way to Canterlot. Several troops scattered searching for the village mayor. "Make sure we keep the mayor alive and untouched, we want him to be willing to sign away control." ordered a commanding officer to his troops.

Several others placed posters detailing the news of their occupation on every available doorway while a loudspeaker was brought in to broadcast propaganda.

Dainn saw the whole thing unfold from a nearby ridge. He turned over to his second-in-command. "Gefroy, I want you to lead Eagle squad to Ponyville, capture it, occupy it and capture the remaining Elements of Harmony, understood?" he whispered to him.

"I will sir, it's an honor to lead the elite unit." he nodded with agreement.

"Oh, and you and your stags are free to commit total war, so feel free to kill, pillage, rape and destroy until your heart is content."

A large grin formed on Gefroy's face. "My stags will enjoy that greatly." he gave a quick bow to Dainn and marched off to grab the squad. He looked around the temporary encampment to find a group of eight stags sitting around a campfire, cleaning their rifles. These eight were distinguished by an eagle on their capes and a large red eagle on the banner that flew above them. He marched up to them and the eight stags quickly stood up to salute their superior officer. "At ease stags." began Gefroy. "We have a new mission, we move out in ten minutes."

The eight quickly scattered to pack and prepare.

Little did the caribou soldiers knew, but back home, a group of females have herded all the surviving palace guards into the palace courtyard. Many of there guards were ashamed and disgusted at being defeated by inferior females, but then again, the only reason they got the job as guards was because of their loyalty to Dainn and blatant extreme sexism, and not because of their competence for the job.

Inside the palace radio booth, a caribou female gave an address to the citizens of the Rangifer Kingdom. "Dear citizens of the Rangifer Kingdom, I am Dye, leader of the resistance, I have come here to announce that a new order has been established here, and as the first act as the leader of the resistance, I declare that there will no longer by any collars, and no more stocks and no more sexual abuse. Any and all laws that subject females to such humiliation will hereby be nullified. So females, remove those collars you have around your necks, leave those abusive households and if your male objects, beat them until they relent. The revolution starts now, female power forever!"

In the streets, a mob of females ran out of their homes and took of their collars. Many chucking them at any male soldier they encounter. All females they saw in the stocks were forcibly freed. "Doe power! Doe power! Doe power!" the females chanted.

At another part of the kingdom, the nurse who helped Applejack earlier who listened to the entire broadcast slowly, but happily, removed her collar and threw it across the room away from her.

In the palace, Dye walked out to meet with Velvet, Applejack and Rainbow Dash. "Thanks you three for helping us build the courage to instigate this revolution." she smiled.

"No problem." said Velvet. "But this revolution will become pointless if the caribou army successfully takes Canterlot, if they take it, then there goes our support." she explained.

"We need to get to Canterlot before they get there!" exclaimed Applejack with worry.

"But how?" wondered Rainbow Dash. "The only trains running from here to Equestria are supply trains, by the time the first train leaves, it'll be too late."

"I think I have an idea." said Dye.

Next thing they knew, they found themselves in front of an air ship. A wooden boat attached to a giant hydrogen filled balloon. "It's the only airship this kingdom has, and has never been used." explained Dye to the three foreigners.

"The colors are drab, but it'll do, thank you Dye." stated the reindeer. She then turned to her ice sprites. "Okay sprites, get this ship, ship-shape and fast." she ordered.

The sprites saluted and did as told.

"Ah hope we're not too late." said Applejack with worry, especially for her granny, brother and little sister still at the farm.

The nine caribou soldiers, including their officer Gefroy all marched down the path towards Ponyville. They past a sign that read 'Ponyville 5 kilometers ahead' and with it, the first sign of civilization, a farm.

Gefroy gave the signal and all eight males ran to the farmhouse. Four went to the fields to grab as much food as they can, while the other four went inside the house to grab the occupants. A stallion, a mare and two fillies were dragged out and pushed to the ground.

"Your farm has been confiscated and ordered to be utterly destroyed to prevent you from feeding your kingdom." explained one of the soldiers. "Cooperate and obey and we'll go easy on you."

"This is madness!" snarled the stallion before being hit hard by the butt of a rifle. He was knocked unconscious.

The mare and her daughters hugged each other tightly. "Please, just don't hurt my daughters, that's all I ask." begged the mare.

"Oh, don't worry, we won't hurt your daughters, we caribou avoid fiddling fillies without a proper education." he gave the other three the signal and they grabbed the mare and dragged her to the barn kicking and screaming.

Gefroy walked up to the soldier. "Make it quick Aldous, we need to get to Ponyville as soon as possible." he warned.

"You're right sir." he agreed, he then whistled to the three soldiers with the mare, grabbing their attention. "Hugh, Guy, Fulk, you have 30 minutes, not a second longer!" Aldous yelled. The three nodded with agreement before they threw their captive inside and locked the barn door shut.

"And Bevis, Curtis, Drogo and Eden?" Gefroy asked.

"They are in the fields picking the place for food and then afterwards, they'll burn all the crops."

"Excellent." Gefroy smirked. He then looked over at the two scared fillies. "Don't worry, once we finishing teaching your mother her proper place in society, we'll be on our way." he gave a somewhat creepy smile at them as screams emanated from the barn.

To be continued...

Purpose

Twilight found herself in a white void. She was nervous to say the least, but ready to face whatever she needs to face in order to fully master dark magic to save Equestria.

"Are you ready to embrace the darkness?" said Sombra's voice. He was nowhere to be seen, but he could be heard perfectly.

"I am ready." she answered confidently.

"Good, but before I do, I must break your bond with Celestia, the shield she placed on you to prevent you from being fully corrupted by the dark arts." he explained. "Your loyalty, respect and love for her is holding you back."

"What do you mean?" Twilight asked confused.

"I am not the pony you think I am my faithful student." said a new, yet familiar voice. Twilight turned around to see Celestia before her.

"Celestia!" she quickly ran towards her mentor to hug her but was swiftly met with a slap to the face. She fell to the floor in pain. Confused, she got up. "Celestia...?" Why would she slap her student? She would ask herself.

"That was for turning your back on the destiny I planned out for you!" she scolded. "I had it all planned from the start!"

"What?" she could not believe this. "But you said I was free to fulfill whatever destiny I want?"

"Only the one's I approved of." the princess clarified. "Your destiny was to be molded into a perfect princess who would help enforce my decrees and policies, you were to be my perfect little puppet." she admitted. "But I guess I made the mistake of choosing a mare who was too smart for her own good!"

"A puppet?" the unicorn was stunned. "But I am a student, and you were like a second mother to me..."

"You really think that highly of me?!" she exclaimed, dumbfounded. "I only chose you because you were less likely to screw up as badly as my previous students and is too star struck by me to easily control you." she snarled. "Now be a good student and face the destiny I have chosen for you like a good loyal adult!"

Each word from the alicorn's mouth felt like daggers piercing Twilight's heart. "No..." she mumbled in a barely audible tone.

"What was that my student?!" she yelled.

"I SAID NO!" Twilight yelled back with anger and tears in her eyes. "I WILL NOT BE USED LIKE THAT!"

Celestia just looked at Twilight with contempt. "...then you are useless to me." her horn glowed and fired a beam of magic at the young unicorn. Twilight suddenly felt petrified, she looked down to see herself slowly get encased in stone.

"NO! STOP!" she screamed as she slowly turned into a statue. The last thing she saw was her former mentor's face get sick pleasure out of her predicament.

"You failed us Twilight..." said a familiar voice. Twilight groggily opened up her eyes to see Rainbow Dash before her. She looked angry and disappointed in her.

"Dash?" the unicorn asked. She quickly saw that Dash's wings were wrapped tightly around her body, and she wore a black collar around her neck. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing," began Dash as she began to unwrap the bindings on her wings. "except for the fact that...I have no wings Twi!" she snarled incredulously as the bindings fell off to reveal that her wings were nothing but featherless stubs.

"Oh my goodness!" she exclaimed with shock. "What happened?!"

"Why the caribou darling." said Rarity as she walked in. She wore a red collar. "They took out her wings for being an uncooperative slut." she smirked.

"Says the mare who betrayed her friends just to save herself and profit out of other's miseries!" snapped Dash at Rarity.

"I did what any good business pony would do and took advantage of a marketable opportunity!" Rarity defended.

"You opened up a bordello so you can save yourself!" yelled Dash. "Element of Generosity my ass!"

"Well at least Pinkie has made the best of her situation." Rarity pointed over to where Pinkie Pie should be, only to see that she's gone. "What the?! Where'd she go?!"

A bemused Rainbow Dash just pointed towards another direction. "She's being double teamed by two caribou." she pointed out.

Suddenly, the world began to take shape, Twilight looked around to find herself in a different Ponyville. Everything looked slightly in disrepair, signs were written in both Equestrian and Caribou, the entire sky was gray and cloudy. But the worst part, were the citizens, everywhere she looked, there were caribou and pony males sexually and physically abusing mares. All mares wore collars, some where in stocks, some in leashes. The walls plastered with propaganda.

"All Hail King Dainn! ᐋᓗ ᐋᓗ ᑭᖑᒍ ᑕᐃᓐ!" said posters that were all over the the place.

Twilight was stunned. "What...happened?!"

"You failed, that's what happened." dryly said a voice. Twilight turned around to see Dainn and his dower face. "And now you are mine!" he smirked as he pulled on a rope, Twilight was suddenly pulled to the dirt. She looked to see that a collar appeared around her neck. "So how dare you wander off with my permission!" he growled as he gave the mare a swift kick to the stomach. Twilight doubled over in pain.

The scene suddenly changed to a dark room. Twilight found herself in a dark void with Dainn himself. "Friendship and harmony couldn't save you the first time around Miss Sparkle, it'll take more than those foalish things to defeat us." he swiftly kicked the mare on the stomach again. The mare coughed up some blood from the painful force. "No wonder Celestia had so little faith in you!" he spat at the mare's face. "You are pathetic!" he proceeded to kick her a third time.

Twilight curled up in pain. "Make it stop..." she pleaded through the pain.

"I'm sorry, but this ride will end until you are good and very well corrupted." he suddenly pulled Twilight by her mane and pushed her against a nearby wall. The unicorn was intimidated and scared, she had no idea what was going to happen. "Now be a good Royal Pet and suck my cock nice and good before I do it by force!" he pointed his sheath and pulled Twilight's face near it.

"No!" she stuttered out, she tried her best to defiant but felt herself lose motivation to fight.

Dainn's antlers began to grow. "You will suck my Kingly cock like a good pet!" he ordered.

"I will suck your kingly cock master..." she responded in a catatonic state, before she went down a started to lick his sheath. "What the buck am I doing?! Body! Stop!" screamed Twilight in her mind how suddenly felt like she lost control of her body, she felt trapped in her own mind somehow. But she continued her oral service as the caribou's cock became fully engorged. She licked up and down his shaft hungrily a face of content appeared on her face, hiding the inner look of horror. "NO!!!" she screamed loudly in her mind.

Let the darkness consume you Twilight, you can fight it

Twilight heard a distant yet familiar voice. "Sombra...I can't..." she explained as she found herself about to deep throat the tool. "He's psychic abilities are too strong..."

Not as strong as you...you need to accept the darkness within you...what's holding you back?

"I...don't...know..." she was afraid, she can feel her dark side within her, but was afraid to let it consume her, she was afraid of betraying everyone she loved. She tried really hard, but her heart would not let her. She felt herself accept her fate as her mouth happily sucked Dainn's cock.

Twilight! her ears perked up as she heard Cadance's voice.

Twilight! said Luna

Twiley! said Shining Armor

These new voices suddenly appeared in her mind. All of her old friends and allies calling out to her. "Ya mustn't give up Twi!" said Applejack.

You always tell me to be strong, why can't you? asked Fluttershy

We always have faith in you darling, you know that Twilight. said Rarity.

Twilight, you may be an egghead, but at least you are cool and confident, and you are awesome. complimented Rainbow Dash.

Never ever give up hope Twi! cheered Pinkie Pie.

All of these friends and allies, giving words of encouragement, she felt her fighting spirit increase.

No Twilight, you must die, die Twilight! laughed an ominous voice. Soon, Twilight began to see the face of Mistress Superior appear in her mind's eye, the one who killed Celestia. Die like your useless mentor, die! she laughed evilly. The mare suddenly felt something inside her snap, her blood boiled with rage from Superior's taunting, she does not care how useful Celestia was as a mentor, she just wanted vengeance for her murder. She slowly found herself breaking free of Dainn's mind control and immediately bit down on the caribou's member, hard.

"THE FUCK!" he screamed in pain as he pushed the mare off of him before he bent over in pain. He looked down to see blood has been drawn from the mare's bite marks. "YOU BITCH!" he angrily yelled from the pain. He looked over to the mare only to see her red and green glowing eyes pierce his soul. "Uh...this is new..." he nervously stuttered, he had a bad feeling about this.

"No more...no more..." was all Twilight said before she levitated over a bolder and held it over Dainn's head. Dainn said nothing as the bolder was swiftly pushed into the ground with force, crushing his entire head into a bloody pulp. Twilight gave an evil smirk. "Suck on that."

Twilight soon found herself back in the library, she looked over to see Sombra with his spell book before her. "You have embraced your inner darkness." smirked Sombra. "You are ready."

"They will pay for her death, and I'll make sure of that!" she growled with determination. She happily walked over to Sombra and nuzzled him. "Mmm, I miss this." she hissed.

The dark stallion gave an evil smirk. "Yes." he hissed back before he kissed her on the lips, the mare happily accepted it.

Twilight swiftly pushed the shadow unicorn up against the wall and continued to kiss him deeply. The stallion greatly enjoyed the turn of events. "She's accepted her darkness...she's ready...and no more Elements of Harmony to distract me"

At the Crystal Palace, Cadance was dragged over to the mirror room and thrown to the floor. "You're becoming a thorn on our side Princess Cadance, I would have killed you in cold blood if not for the fact that we need your unborn child alive." the leader of the mysterious cult explained. She used her magic to activate the portal. "How about we set this on random?" she chuckled. She turned to her followers. "Bring the elements here, we'll scatter them across the multiverse so nopony will ever get to them."

One of the followers went over to the box that housed the elements of harmony, only to see it shake around on the floor. "Huh?" she was confused. "Mistress Houou?"

"Yes Goody Yuki?" asked the leader.

"Why is the box moving?" Yuki pointed at the box that started to shake violently.

"Huh?!" Suddenly, the box burst open and the six elements floated out of the box. Everyone, including Cadance, looked on in shock. "Explain! Explain!" yelled a stunned Mistress Houou to Cadance.

The pink alicorn had no idea what was going on either.

Before they knew it, the six elements flew out of the room through a nearby window and scattered away in opposite directions.

Platinum and Oleander were on Twilight's hot air balloon making their way to the Crystal Empire, just as it came into sight, both the princess and unicorn saw six objects fly out of the palace. "What is that?" asked Oleander. Suddenly, one of the six objects flew straight at them.

"Can it be?!" exclaimed Platinum. Before she could react, she saw the flying object hit Oleander square in the chest. "You okay?" she quickly tended to the unicorn, only to see what the object was; the Element of Magic.

"Oof." Oleander got up rubbing her chest. "What's this?"

Platinum quickly put the pieces together in her head. "You have been chosen." she said ominously to her travelling companion.

"For what?" the unicorn asked as she inspected the element of harmony.

"To become the new Element of Magic..."

At a base camp below, Dainn saw one of the objects flash by in the sky. He followed the object until he saw that it head towards an airship, but not just any airship, but the only that belongs to the Rangifer Kingdom. "Son of a bitch..." he muttered at the turn of events.

On the airship, Rainbow Dash and Applejack were on the deck, the ice sprites running around them manning the ship. They were joined by Velvet who walked out from below deck. "Ah, that was a nice beauty sleep, now I feel fully energized and beautiful again." she confidently smiled as she twirled her body around like a figure skater. "How far until we reach Canterlot?" she asked the two ponies.

"Maybe thirty minutes, we're in Equestria that's for sure." explained Dash as she analyzed the horizon, only to see an object fly towards them. "What the?"

Before the three could react, the object suddenly hit Velvet on the chest and she flew back from the force. "Oh no!" yelled Applejack with worry. The ice sprites quickly rushed to her aid to tend to her.

"ވ‎އަ‎ޓ‎މ‎އޮރ‎, އާ‎ރ‎ ޑ‎އު‎ އޮ‎ކއެޖ‎?" the sprites squeaked with worry. The sprites and two mares gathered around the fallen reindeer only to see a familiar object resting on her chest; the element of Generosity.

"Oh wow, what a rush." the reindeer doe quickly shot up awake. She looked at the object that hit her. "How tacky."

Applejack and Rainbow Dash were too stunned to say a word.

Suddenly, the air ship rocked violently from the force of an explosion. "What the?!" exclaimed Applejack as she fell to the floor. The three quickly got up and looked over the edge to see the caribou army down below firing what appeared to be an anti-aircraft cannon.

"Fire!" yelled a commanding officer as the troops fired the weapon on command. The projectile was shot into the air and exploded with great force near the airship.

"They're so dead!" angrily growled Rainbow Dash who was ready to dive down and exact her revenge but Applejack quickly tackled her to the floor. "HEY!"

"Are ya crazy Dash?" exclaimed the orange mare. "Ya can't take them on yerself with all those fancy weapons they have!"

"What do you expect me to do then?!" Dash snapped back. "Sit back and let them shoot us out of the sky?!"

"Leave it up to me girls!" smirked an overtly confidence Velvet who's antlers began to glow. She began to twist and twirl her way over to the bow of the airship before she let out an endless stream of icicles down below. The icicles flew down and landed on the ground like bullets. All the caribou quickly dodged out of the way, others were not quick enough.

Dainn shielded himself from behind a hovercraft. "Great, they have the reindeer with them." he said in a slightly annoyed tone to his spotter. "That egotistical whore." he growled. He turned to his spotter only to see that he was dead from a icicle to his heart. "Damn it!" he quickly got up and calmly walked over to the soldiers manning the anti aircraft gun. He was unfazed by the icicles that nearly hit him.

The soldiers cowered behind the weapon until Dainn grabbed one of them by the neck. "Sir?!"

"We're caribou damn it! Not cowards!" he growled. "Now do your damn jobs and blow them out of the sky!"

"Y-yes sir..." he stuttered before he got his troops together. One of the soldiers grabbed opened a box with a different projectile and gave it to the weapons master. "Using the altitude charge!" he yelled to his soldiers before giving it to the weapon's loaders.

"Set the height at 1 kilometer!" he yelled as the soldiers turned a nob on the projectile to that setting before they loaded it into the barrel.

"That should keep them busy for a while." smirked Velvet. "Velvet, you are too damn fine for this." she praised herself.

Applejack just rolled her eyes with annoyance. "She's worse than Rarity sometimes"

Suddenly, the weapon fired and the projectile flew up into the air and pierced the balloon before it exploded. The ship was immediately caught in a giant fireball caused by the flammable gas used in the balloon and slowly crashed to the ground.

Dainn saw the whole thing through his binoculars. "They landed about 3 kilcks north of us, get a search party together and capture the survivors, if there are any." he calmly ordered. Several of his troops saluted before they marched off to the crash site.

Luna reached her destination and got herself ready to teleport home. But something soon caught her eye, she saw an object fly towards her. "Huh? This is new?" she commented with confusion.

The object suddenly flew past her and hit something else. "OW!" yelled a new voice.

Luna turned to see a young calf on the floor, with the object resting on her chest. She examined the object only for her face to drop from the shock. "Oh no..." she stepped back. "...this is not good at all..."

Luna knew that there could only be one reason why an element would find a new wielder; one of them got corrupted by the dark forces. Her worst fears are becoming true.

Queen

In the abandoned library, deep in the forbidden section, two ponies made love. Twilight Sparkle happily rode the dark king Sombra's member, her face in complete bliss, for once she was glad to be doing this, all the doubt she had earlier about his love for him evaporated as soon as she embraced her dark nature. She continued to bounce on the stallion's amazing cock as she felt her inner walls begin to grip it even more, she was getting close. "Oh Sombra...so good..." she moaned.

Sombra just smirked the entire time. Now that Twilight has accepted her dark side, he has her wrapped around his hoof like a queen should be. Little did Twilight knew, but his plan was to take the throne for himself and his new queen as soon as he Dainn's head placed on a pike. He felt his dick twitch in anticipation for the inevitable orgasm that is to come. "Do you...want it inside?" he asked with a smile as he placed his hooves on the mare's hips.

"Oh yes my King, inside me, I want to feel it." she moaned, she was in pure bliss as she felt her orgasm build up.

"As you wish my Queen." he said before he released his load inside the mare. The mare cooed in response as she felt herself get filled up, some of it leaking out.

"Amazing as always my love." she panted, sweat matted her fur. She then levitated over the Unicornomicon to herself and opened the book, getting right to business. "Fred, help me located my five friends, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie." she instructed, still attached to Sombra.

"As you wish Miss Sparkle." said Fred as the book began to glow. Suddenly, Twilight's eyes began to glow white as a map of Equestria appeared before her mind's eye. She could see Fluttershy, Rarity and Pinkie Pie at the library in Ponyville.

Aldous, Bevis, Curtis, Drogo, Eden, Fulk, Guy and Hugh stealthily walked into Ponyville, lead by Gefroy, the nine look around to see the streets empty, all of the citizens locked inside. But their mission does not involve them, their mission is to find the Elements of Harmony and capture them. The nine caribou soldiers gathered together at a nearby tree in the park.

"Okay, me, Drogo, Fulk and Hugh will go to the Golden Oaks library and capture the mares, the rest of you, secure every single exit and secure the town, make sure no pony leaves or enters here." Gefroy instructed. They quietly agreed to the orders and they split up.

The caribou walked through town square, its citizens cowering inside their homes for safety. Gefroy's group soon reached their intended target; Golden Oaks Library. The four stood in front of it, ready to attack.

Twilight quickly snapped out of the map and got up off of Sombra. "Damn it, they're in Ponyville!" she got herself straightened up. "We need to leave now!"

Sombra stood in the way. "I can't let you go there Twilight, it's a trap to get to you." he explained. "While you're busy defending your friends, Dainn's army will have taken Canterlot and with it, control of Equestria." he warned.

"But I can't just stand by and let my friends get captured." she felt her desire to kill in cold blood build within her, she felt the need to murder each of those caribou in painfully slow deaths. Celestia's death must be avenged.

Sombra had an idea. "I think I know a way we can defeat an army that thinks with their dicks." with a confident smirk, he levitated over the dark spell book and opened it to the appropriate page. "The caribou are going to have a field day with this." the dark stallion's horn glowed a bright red as a bright beam of magic shot out from it. Slowly, three pony-like figures began to materialize before them.

Once the smoke cleared and the spell was complete, three mares appeared before Twilight and Sombra. "King Sombra, Miss Twilight, please welcome Lilith, Mahalath and Naamah, succubi." announced Fred. They looked like red coated ponies with bat wings.

"Succubi?" Twilight never really heard of them before, she never knew such a spell to create some exist.

"Shape-shifting demons from Tartarus." explained Sombra. "They take the form of whatever is pleasing to their male target and then fucks him until his life force is completely drained from him, so an appropriate weapon against the caribou." he chuckled. He walked up to the three. "Now these, these are not the real things, but are just as effective, they'll disappear once their intended targets are fully drained." he continued. "So tell me ladies, are you three ready for your assignment?" he asked in a flirty tone.

The three mares just giggled. "Nisl quis hoc sumus?" asked Lilith.

"Caribou, nine of them, do whatever you need to drain them completely dry." the dark stallion ordered.

The three succubi giggled even more. "Qui nos amant in creaturis nequeunt." they snickered among each other.

"Now go and have as much fun as you can." ordered Sombra.

"Etiam, Domine" they bowed before they spread their bat wings and flew out of the room.

"What now Sombra?" asked Twilight.

"We make our final stand here, come on, I have so much to teach you in so short of time." he grabbed the spell book and walked out. Twilight followed suit, she knew that he has something planned, but isn't sure what it is yet. But she fully trusts him.

"What happened to the Elements of Harmony!" yelled a desperate Mistress Houou. "Why did they just fly away like that?!"

"I already told you!" yelled Cadance back as she was held down by several of Houou's followers. "I DON'T KNOW!"

Houou just growled with annoyance. "This must be Luna's doing, she must still be alive somewhere." she took a deep breath to calm down. "No matter, our plan will succeed long before the Elements of Harmony are found again." she motioned her followers to drag Cadance to the mirror. "Anyways, enjoy the next ten months in whatever universe you end up in." she smirked.

Cadance just accepted her fate, she hoped that Twilight and her friends can still save the day. "NOT SO FAST!" yelled a new voice.

Everyone turned to see Princess Platinum and Oleander who stood before them. But what really caught Houou's attention was the fact that Oleander had an Element of Harmony with her. "She has one of the elements...but how Mistress?!" exclaimed Yuki with confusion.

"No matter, kill them!" Houou ordered. All the mares nodded and lunged towards her.

"Delere!" yelled Oleander before she fired a beam at all the mares that came at her. They all were turned into dust within the blink of an eye. Houou looked on with interest.

"You read the Unicornomicon didn't you?" she asked the dark unicorn mare.

"Cover to cover." said Oleander.

"Fun fact, we, the sisterhood, wrote that book." smirked Houou. "I memorized the whole thing by heart as well." her horn glowed. "Praemium!" she yelled as she fired a beam of magic at the unicorn. It hit Oleander directly and the room was covered by a large explosion.

"OLEANDER!" yelled Platinum with concern as the dust began to clear. But to everyone's surprise, Oleander stood her ground, without a single scratch on her.

"What?!" yelled both Houou and Cadance.

"I'm alive?" said a confused unicorn mare, she should have been dead by now, but was still alive somehow. "How?"

"Magic can never destroy the Elements of Harmony, their users are therefore invulnerable for as long as they have it." explained Platinum.

"Shit!" exclaimed Houou. "No matter, I will still fight you off even if it is the last thing I do-" she was suddenly silenced by a whack to the head by a dense piece of crystal, she fell to the floor unconscious.

"No one ever puts Trixie in a corner!" snarled an annoyed Trixie as she dropped the crystal to the floor. "My goodness she was annoying."

"Normally I hate deux ex machina, but I guess I'll make an exception for this." stated Platinum as she tried to comprehend what just happened. She walked over to the unconscious Houou. "And I guess my mission here is done."

Platinum placed Houou on her back and walked over to the mirror. "Wait!" said Cadance. "Just who are you?" she asked. The mysterious Platinum just stood in front of the mirror.

"Closer than you think." was all she said. "Since we share the same father and all." before Cadance could probe any further, Platinum walked through the mirror with Houou and disappeared in a bright flash of light. She was back in her old universe, reunited with her good father and with her mother's death avenged.

Cadance, Trixie and Oleander looked at each other with confusion. "And you are?" asked Cadance to the unfamiliar dark coated unicorn mare.

"Oh...my name is Oleander." she nervously introduced herself. "And I am apparently the new Element of Magic."

The pink alicorn just looked on with even more confusion. "What?!"

At the air ship crash site, several caribou soldiers looked around the wreckage for any survivors or bodies. "Do you think they escaped?" asked one of them to their friend.

"They couldn't have gone very far." answered the other. He suddenly felt a projectile hit his neck; an icicle. "Ahhhh." he fell to the floor, loosing blood.

The other soldiers dove away for cover with their weapons ready. They looked around to find where the icicle came from. Some of them nervous of the unknown.

"YEE HAW!" yelled a voice as a rope abruptly knocked away their rifles. Before they could comprehend what happened, some of them were clothes lined by a flying pony and the rest tackled by another pony. One managed to crawl away only to have his way blocked by a pair of tall slender legs. He looked up to see it was Velvet.

"You will let me go." he said as his antlers glowed while using his psychic abilities to escape.

Velvet just smirked. "I'm a reindeer, your psychic powers don't work on me." she giggled. "Now lick my hooves if you want to live." she ordered.

"Fuck you bitch! I have magic too!" he snarled defiantly as he started to concentrated, hopefully the magic serum he was given before he left home would work, why else would they be stupid enough to invade Equestria. He tried too get her levitated away or something, but too his frustration, she was still there. "I know magic can affect you damn it!"

"Those were just placebos you sexist dumbass." commented Velvet as she swiftly kicked the caribou in the face, knocking him out. "Girls rule, boys drool." she giggled.

Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Velvet tied the five soldiers up to a tree and left them there. "Ah reckin' Ponyville is not too far away from here, if we hurry we can get there in about 10 minutes or so." said Applejack.

"What about Canterlot?" said a confused Rainbow Dash.

"Our friends are probably there, besides, we can't just go to Canterlot by ourselves, that's a fools mission!"

"Now girls, calm down, we don't need needless arguments around here." said the doe as she walked between the two mares. "Now, let's go to this town called Ponyville because the more allies the better." she gave a reassuring smile. "Now you two kiss and make up." she giggled. Both mares just glared at the doe.

"Sir, the Wonderbolts are here to see you." announced a soldier to Dainn who was in his tent. Dainn was inside looking at the various topographical maps of Equestria. He looked up to see three Wonderbolts before him.

"I will only talk to your commanding officer." he dryly stated. The three pegasi nodded to each other before two of them walked out, leaving their captain, Spitfire behind.

"We're here to negotiate a settlement." explained Spitfire, getting straight to the point. "This invasion has gone long enough."

"You know Captain, we're not so different you and I." began Dainn as he sat down on his chair. "We're both highly ambitious creatures here, we both had similar upbringings." he continued. "I'm sure we can come up with a reasonable agreement."

"What do you have in mind?" she asked with suspicion. "You can't conquer Equestria without conquering the skies over it."

"I know that, which is why I am planning to not bother conquering the skies or Cloudsdale." stated Dainn. "Canterlot is my main prize and since we caribou can't fly or walk on clouds, it'll be completely pointless for us to subjugate any pegasi that live in the clouds."

"So what do you want?"

"Leave us be and we promise that any pegasi that live in the sky will be left alone and we'll help set up an independent pegasi kingdom as well." proposed the leader.

"Like I could ever trust YOU to do such a thing!" spat the captain with contempt. "Your entire species makes me sick!"

Dainn just shook his head with pity. "Okay fine, we'll do things the hard way." he got up and walked over to the Wonderbolt captain. His antlers began to glow. "I can sense a strong desire to win at all costs within you." he said as he leered into Spitfire's eyes. "You want to be the hero for once, don't you?"

"Yes..." she said in a catatonic state. His psychic manipulation began to work on the mare.

"Then take the offer, be the hero, the one that saved the pegasi and kept them free and sovereign from the influence of the caribou, the one who will lead pegasi to a return to their golden age before the unification." he continued. "We all know the Unicorns and Earths are holding you back, now it's time to break free from them."

"I will take the offer..." responded Spitfire. "I will be the hero..."

Dainn gave a small smile, but remained stoic. "Good, now tell your teammates the news, it was a pleasure doing business with you Captain Spitfire, you'll make the pegasi proud." he returned back to his seat and his antlers stopped glowing.

Spitfire shook her head to refocus herself. "Uh, yeah, thank you for agreeing to the terms." she smiled. She had no idea that she was mentally manipulated. With a confident smirk, she walked out of the tent to gather her teammates.

The leader just gave a smirk. "I love manipulating things to my favor."

Aldous, Bevis, Curtis, Eden and Guy split up. Aldous and Guy went to the train station to begin tearing up the tracks, Bevis and Eden went to the park to set up a defensive base, while Curtis stormed town hall to get access of the town census records.

Meanwhile, Fluttershy, Rarity and Pinkie Pie sat around completely bored. They were unaware of what was going on outside as Gefroy and Hugh were at the front door and Drogo and Fulk at the back.

"I'll enter through the balcony." whispered Hugh to his superior. "Scout the place out." he reasoned.

"Okay, but do not engage until me, Drogo and Fulk enter, you have five minutes." sternly instructed Gefroy.

Hugh saluted and quickly climbed up the tree up to the balcony.

Inside, Pinkie once again beat Rarity in a game of tictac toe. "Best 14 out of 27?" offered a bored Pinkie to her unicorn friend.

Rarity sighed. "Like we have a choice." Looking on, Fluttershy just silently excused herself to use the library "facilities", namely, the bathroom.

The yellow pegasus entered the bathroom, still neatly organized like Twilight has left it, and quietly walked over to the squat toilet on the floor. As she squatted and relieved herself, Hugh, by complete happenstance while climbing up the tree, passed by the bathroom window.

"Huh? What's this?" mumbled Hugh to himself as he turned his attention back to the window. He looked through it to see the pegasus mare, back towards him, urinating in to the toilet. The sight aroused him. "I don't know what it is about such a site that turns me on, but it really does." he chuckled to himself. An idea formed in his head. "I must claim her now before someone else does." the though of turning an innocent and shy pony into an obedient sex slave aroused him even more.

Once Fluttershy finished, she wiped herself clean and flushed the squat toilet. She breathed a heavy sigh of relief. "Does feel good relieving yourself after a long day of holding it in." she mused. She began to sing a song to herself as she trotted over to the sink. At the same time, Hugh used his antlers to cut a hole into the glass. "流星群のように降りゆく" sang Fluttershy to herself as she washed her hooves. Hugh, who stealthy crawled into the bathroom immediatly recognized the song.

"流星群のように落ちた" he sang to himself in perfect harmony to the pegasus.

Fluttershy, without missing a beat song the first verse, not noticing that she's participating in an unexpected duet. Once she finished washing her hooves, she opened the medicine cabinet and grabbed Twilight's mane brush to straighten her hair. Both Shy and Hugh sang in perfect harmony with each other as the caribou slowly approached the mare.

The mare closed the medicine cabinet to view herself in the mirror to better brush her mane, only to quickly notice the caribou male approaching from behind. Before she could scream, Hugh quickly grabbed her and his antlers started to glow. He gave an evil smirk and whispered into her ear. "I don't care what Dainn says, you WILL be MY bimbo slut." he growled. The mare felt her mind get taken over by these new unwanted thoughts, she tried to fight it.

Curtis trotted over to the park to rendezvous with Bevis and Eden. "I got the census records, we can now process and classify each of the females and males and-" he stopped in his tracks to see the most horrifying sight; two caribou females each riding the dry husks of Curtis' teammates. They suddenly turned to look at him and giggled to each other.

"Parva tibi ad somnum infantem, Parva tibi ad somnum infantem..." they sang as they got off the dry husks and approached the caribou who stood still in shock. They quickly surround him, nuzzle him and flirt with him. "Et tua recesserit Momma, Pater est agnus maneat, Nemo non reliquit infantem." Curtis just went along with it and kissed one of the females. "Veni inpone ossa lapis in alabastro. Gloria mea semper et lovin." the other female sang as they placed the male down on the ground so they can be on top.

They suddenly bear their demonic teeth and strike. Curtis' screams echoed across the town.

Screams followed by rifle shots from the train station also echoed across town, implying that the third succubus got Aldous and Guy. Gefroy heard the distant commotion and took that as his cue to barge into the library. "Go!" he ordered as he broke down the door. Rarity and Pinkie looked on. "Don't bother, you are surrounded." on cue, Drogo and Fulk walked into the main room from the kitchen, rifles at the ready.

"Don't worry Rarity, Fluttershy could still save us." mused Pinkie who tried to look at the bright side of the situation.

"You mean this mare?" said Hugh who forced a scared Fluttershy down the library stairs at rifle point. The three soldiers each pointed their rifles to the three mares.

"Greetings ladies, my name is Geofroy, second-in-command of the Caribou Military, and you have been captured to be the loyal slaves of the great leader himself, Dainn." he smirked with pride. "Now, before we take you away to be 'processed', I would really appreciate that one of you tells me where the other three elements are." he said. "Where is Honesty, Loyalty and Magic?"

"Uh, sir?" spoke out Hugh who became annoyed when he heard his officer reveal that all three mares would be going to Dainn himself, his blood began to boil with anger from the knowledge that Dainn would ruin the yellow mare's first, he felt that since he was the one that did all the work in mentally breaking her, she should belong to him and no caribou else.

"What is it Hugh?" asked Geofrey who was annoyed by the interruption.

"Hail Dainn, may peace be upon him!" he snarled with contempt before he aimed his rifle and fire at Geofrey. The officer tried his best to dodge, but was quickly hit in the neck, he fell to the floor, bleeding profusely from his neck, he tried his best to stop the bleeding. The three mares quickly ducked down to the floor as Fulk pulled the trigger to fire, only to see Hugh drop the rifle and grab his flint lock pistol and fire first, shooting Fulk in the stomach.

"FULK!" yelled Drogo as he aimed his rifle at Hugh, only for Hugh to quickly grab Fluttershy and hold a dagger against her throat. It all happened within a matter of just seconds.

"No one moves!" snarled a crazed Hugh. "No one gets hurt, especially this mare!" he yelled at everyone in the room. Drogo nervously aimed his rifle at his former comrade. "She belongs to me and no one else!"

"Damn it Hugh," croaked Geofrey who propped himself against a wall, holding his neck to slow down the bleeding. "all of this because you have a hard on for that one!" he snarled with contempt, he looked increasingly pale.

"Oh well, ponies always did say that I would make a good hostage..." sighed Fluttershy who quickly accepted her fate as one without fight.

The stand off continued.

To be continued...

Rush

"Hugh," croaked Gefroy who grew increasingly weaker. "I command you to stop this foolishness and surrender!" he ordered to his subordinate who held Fluttershy by his dagger.

"All I ask is that me and her be left alone!" he exclaimed with desperation. "She's going to be mine and Dainn will never get her." he explained to his superior Gefroy and his squad mate Drogo, who pointed a rifle at him.

"Look, I am open to sharing..." nervously stammered Fluttershy, before she stopped herself. That phrase felt out of character for her, she wondered why she said that. But one thing she does know is that this caribou male smelled nice and was awaking some base urges within her. "Uh...I mean..." she concentrated. "...why would anyone want me? I'm just a weak and awfully shy pony, I would make a horrible slave..." she said as she deprecated herself.

"And you started the bimbofication process didn't you Hugh!?" Gefroy yelled with extreme disappointment. "You psychically manipulated her! That was not part of my orders!"

"I can do whatever I want with our spoils of war sir!" Hugh snarled. "And if that means turning some of them into my own personal air headed sluts, than go suck a dick!"

"Look, Hugh," began Drogo. "we've known each other since our conscription days, now I know you are sucker for the exotic and the bimbos, but this is getting ridiculous, now put the dagger down Hugh." he demanded. "We're Eagle Squad damn it, we don't kill fellow Eagles, we're eight of the most loyal and most competent soldiers, now, you can keep that mare, I don't care, I just want you to put the dagger down so no one gets hurt." he bargained to his old friend.

Suddenly, everyone in the room started to hear singing. "What is that?" wondered Rarity as she coward down on the floor with Pinkie. Drogo slowly went over to a nearby window, pistol still aimed at Hugh. He peeked out to see two caribou females, not just any females, but extremely attractive ones with red extremely well decorated collars that only the most well regarded females wear. They sang a beautiful lullaby to everyone inside the library.

Drogo was immediately caught under their spell. "Sir...permission to go out and fuck these cows silly..." he said longingly.

"Damn it Drogo, those aren't cows! Those are succubi! Haven't you heard of the legends?!" snarled an annoyed Gefroy.

"Sir, those are just scary stories our parents tell us, there is no such thing as succubi." he dismissed his superior's warnings and dropped his weapon. He then removed his cape, armor and chain mail.

"Don't you dare go out there Private! Don't you dare! I order you to stay put!" croaked Gefroy as loudly as he could, he grew weaker by the minute from the gunshot wound to his neck.

"I'm sorry sir, but I have needs, and it has been a week since I last fucked a female senseless, much less two." he carelessly walked outside as the two females sang.

At first, loud moans and expletives were heard as it sounded like Drogo was enjoying his threesome. Rarity quickly covered Pinkie's innocent ears, Gefroy just gave a look of annoyance waiting for the inevitable to happen, while Hugh peaked outside, still holding on to Fluttershy. "That lucky son of a-"

Hugh's comment was swiftly interrupted by the sounds of screams of terror from Drogo as the females began to literally suck all of his liquids dry. "Shit..." said a stunned Hugh. "...this is getting ridiculous, I gotta get out of here!" he exclaimed with worry as he dropped Fluttershy to the floor and ran out the backdoor like the coward he was.

The yellow pegasus felt heartbroken and betrayed that she was abandoned without so much as a hoof job. Wait, why would she think that? She quickly shook her head to focus again and went over to her two friends. After five minutes, the screams stopped.

"Shy, darling, are you okay?" asked the unicorn to her pegasus friend.

"Oh yes, I am fine, maybe a bit unsatisfied but I am fine." answered Fluttershy without thought.

"Come again?" Rarity thought she did not hear her correctly.

"Do you think that thing is gone?" asked Pinkie who butted in.

Rarity cautiously looked out the window to see the females gone and only the dried husk of a corpse remained. She pulled down the window curtains so no one else could see. "I think the coast is clear now." she breathed a sigh or relief. She then looked over at the dying Gefroy. "But what are we going to do with him?"

"Throw him a last rites party?" wondered Pinkie.

"Make him go out with a bang." she said in an unusually husky voice followed by a brief air headed giggle. Rarity and Pinkie looked on with confusion. Shy snapped out of her momentary daze. "What?" voice still husky.

"Fuck it, I am dead either way." exclaimed Gefroy, he grabbed his flintlock pistol and loaded it. He placed it in his mouth but it was suddenly snatched away from him by magic. "HEY!"

"We demand information first." stated Rarity who took the pistol away with her magic. "Now tell us what we want to hear."

"Like I would ever take orders from a FEMALE!" snarled the officer, defiant until the end. "That goes against the natural order of things!"

"Okay...fine..." she glared at him. "Then I guess we'll just let you die an extremely slow and painful death!" she snarled with anger as she used her magic and inner rage from the misogynistic remark to crush the pistol into pieces. Gefroy looked on as if his closest friend was murdered, the pistol that was always by his side since the Great Caribou-Reindeer War was destroyed in an instant.

"That's okay, because once my beloved leader Dainn captures Equestria, YOU'LL be wishing that you can die a quick death as well." he began to laugh hysterically, in sheer denial of his dire situation and from the lack of blood flow to the brain. His vision grew faint and dark. "Oh, Dainn is going to enjoy breaking you and your friends." he laughed. "Besides, I don't need my pistol to finish the job!" he emphasized before he stuck out his tongue to reveal a capsule. "Enjoy sucking on his cock for the rest of your lives!" with one final laugh, he swallowed the capsule and almost immediately began convulsing.

Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie looked on with stunned silence as the caribou began to foam from his mouth and convulse wildly. After about a minute, the convulsions subsided and his lifeless body slumped down to the floor. Dead.

Twelve Years ago...

A younger Gefroy was escorted into Dainn's personal office. It was the first time he would meet the leader in the flesh, he was extremely nervous, he had no idea why the great leader wanted to see a recently promoted Major General, but went along with it, his loyalty to the great and legendary Dainn was paramount before all others. He walked into the office and stopped short of the desk, to see the beloved leader himself staring out the large office window at the capitol.

"When our legendary founder untied all caribou under one kingdom, he wept because there was nothing else to conquer." Dainn said cryptically. "You learn some very deep things when you read." he mused before he turned to look at his new visitor. "Congrats on earning your first star." he pointed at the gold star welded to his battle helmet. He then look through a large file on his desk.

"Uh...thank you Your Greatness..." he nervously bowed.

Dainn said nothing but to look at the file. "Let's see, you were born to a family of chicken farmers, was one of the first to enlist in the army when war with the reindeer was declared, and within four years, rose to the highest rank an enlisted soldier can go." he read. "Then after our military was forcibly disbanded by them, you almost immediately joined the party I founded; the 'National Egalitarian Rangiferine Veterans Party'."

"NERVP party membership number 269 sir, the lowest number still active." Gefroy clarified.

"Ah yes, you're the one that always survives my occasional liquidations because from what I see here, you always manage to prove your undying loyalty to me, the party and the kingdom." Dainn pointed out. "You even live your life almost exactly like the ideal I wrote in my manifesto, the Purple Book." Gefroy suddenly pulled out a pocket sized purple colored book.

"Genders struggle, some genders triumph, others are eliminated. Such is history; such is the history of civilization for thousands of years. To interpret history from this viewpoint is historical materialism; standing in opposition to this viewpoint is historical idealism." Gefroy recited from memory.

"How many females do you have?" Dainn asked with curiosity.

"Why, the maximum one can legally have, twelve." he answered with confidence. "Like it says, once I grow tired of one of them, I sell her to the highest bidder and replace her with a more younger cow." he explained.

"All I request of you is complete loyalty." he looked at the clock on the wall. He had an appointment coming up. "Walk with me to my chambers while I reveal to you my plan for you." he instructed the new officer. The officer did as told without question as they both left the office and walked down the palace hallways.

"What is the plan you have for me sir?" he asked with curiosity. It is hard to tell what Dainn's intentions are considering he shows as little emotion as possible.

They soon came across the end of the hallway where Dainn's chambers were located. "I am officially appointing you my second-in-command and successor should anything...unfortunate...happen to me." he announced. "Not because you are qualified, but because you're the most loyal out of all the other officers." he specified. He opened the door to his chambers to see a scared and young female caribou leashed to the bed by a chain attached to her black collar.

Gefroy paid no mind to the sight, too focused on the news of his promotion. "Oh, I promise to never let you down sir." he bowed out of respect and piety.

"You better." was all Dainn said before he walked inside. "Now if you excuse me, I have a cow to break in." he stated before he closed the doors shut.

Present day

Dainn quietly prayed at the altar devoted to his personal idol and hero, Belenus. He grabbed some mead and poured some into two shot glasses, one for the altar and one for himself. Before he was about to take the shot, he noticed his left foreleg begin to shake, spilling some of the mead out of the glass. "Oh dear, here comes the tremors..." he said, not phased. "The tremors...the tremors..." he repeated without thought. "...the tremors..." he repeated the phrase over and over again with different intonations each time, as if he was trying to perfect the way it should come out of his mouth. "The tre-DAMN IT!" he suddenly screamed and pounded the floor hard when he figured out what he was unconsciously doing. "DAMN THESE COMPULSIONS AND TREMORS!"

"Sir?" asked a soldier who peaked in to check on his dear leader. Dainn quickly put on his dower mask and straightened himself out. "You okay?"

"I'm fine soldier...I'm perfectly fine..." he suddenly imagined himself getting up and snapping that soldiers neck for barging in, but quickly discarded that intrusive thought. He refocused himself on the mission. "Any word on Fillydelphia?" he asked to distract himself from these intrusive thoughts, thoughts of savagely murdering all the males and savagely abusing and sexually brutalizing females, that refuse to go away.

"Has been captured and all of its male and prepubescent citizens being sent to work camps and post-pubescent females being sent to reeducation camps." he relayed the news.

"Good, good, tell all units to stop over at the nearest town for the night for rest, we should reach Canterlot by tomorrow." he instructed.

"Will do sir." said the soldier who briefly bowed before he left the leader alone.

"AND I REQUEST A WHORE FOR TONIGHT!" he yelled at the soldier who already left. He needed an outlet to distract himself from his symptoms.

"So what now?" asked Rarity to her two friends.

"Have an invasion party?" smiled Pinkie. It seemed like the weight of the whole situation has not hit her. She was swiftly met by slap to the face by Rarity. "OW!"

"This is serious Pinkie!" she yelled with annoyance. "If we don't think of something soon, I'll be forced to wear a tacky collar like I'm some kind of animal!"

"Isn't that the point of the collars?" said a smug Fluttershy who tried to hold back a giggle. "I wouldn't mind wearing one, it makes me feel so naughty...so...sexy..." she said in a husky sultry voice. She starred off into space with bedroom eyes.

"Fluttershy? Are you sure you are okay?" asked Rarity.

Suddenly, the front door was barged open and three figures ran in. "Okay ya dirty caribou, get ready for a heapin' helpin' of Bucky McGillicutty and Kicks McGee!" said Applejack who got into fighting stand, along with Rainbow Dash and Velvet.

The common was enough to shake Fluttershy off her momentary trance. "Huh? Dash?"

Dash looked around to see three dead caribou on the floor. "Oh darn, we missed out on the butt kicking." sighed a disappointed Dash.

"Oh my gosh Dashie!" yelled Pinkie with excitement as she quickly enveloped Dash into her hug, crushing her. "You're still alive and full of color again!"

"Can't breathe....lungs collapsing...!" strained the cyan pegasus.

"Where have you two been?!" exclaimed a confused Rarity to her two friends. She then notices the reindeer with an element of harmony around her. "And who's she?"

"The name is Velvet, of the nation of Rein." she said as she proudly spun her body around with the grace of a figure skater. "I love your hair." she complimented.

Rarity was impressed. "Oh why thank you, lots of starch, conditioner and mane curlers can do the trick." she proudly showed off her curls. "And I love your coat, so fluffy and shiny, I wish mine was like that." she was jealous.

"Constant pampering by sprites can do that." she pointed over to the sprites who diligently dragged the dead bodies out of the library.

"Oh my goodness, I never met someone from Rein before, is it just as beautiful and fashionable as the magazines hype it up to be?" asked the unicorn in complete awe.

Velvet just chuckled. "More like under sell it."

Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie looked on as the two started discussing fashion, make-up, and other fancy and girlish things like shopping.

"Great, now we have TWO Rarity's to deal with." said a bemused Applejack.

"I know, it's bad enough dealing with only one." nodded Rainbow Dash in agreement.

"Maybe I have a counterpart." beamed Pinkie. "Do you think so Fluttershy?" she turned next to her only to see that Fluttershy was nowhere to be seen. "Shy?"

"Where did she go? Ah saw her here at that spot just a minute ago?" asked a confused Applejack.

"Shy is gone?!" exclaimed a shocked Dash. Her oldest friend is missing.

"Oh, I saw her leave through the backdoor over there." pointed Velvet to the open library backdoor.

"And you didn't bother to stop her?!" yelled a stunned Rainbow Dash.

"She looks like she can handle herself." explained the reindeer.

"Handle herself?" said Applejack in disbelief. "That mare is one panic attack away from a stopped heart, especially considering how bad it is out there, she could get captured by them no good caribou as we speak."

"Oh please," added Pinkie. "I'm sure Fluttershy is fine, it's not like she's doing something reckless like going to them, that's just silly." she giggled.

Outside of Ponyville, Fluttershy ran out of town. "Mmm...I need it...I want to be fucked by caribou I see...I will gladly be your bimbo slut!" she said to herself with determination. Her eyes where empty and blank, all life behind them completely gone. The psychic manipulation spreading its tendrils across her brain. The old Fluttershy was dead, replaced by pony who just wanted her basic hedonistic fantasies fulfilled. She did not care that she was heading in the direction of the caribou camp.

"DAINN! DAINN!" yelled Hugh as he ran into camp, everyone at the camp looked on with confusion as they wondered what was going on. "We've been ambushed!" he loudly announced at the tent that housed his dear leader.

After about a long uneventful minute, the tent opened up and a slightly annoyed Dainn calmly walked out. "What is the point of this disturbance Corporal Hugh?" he asked. "And where's the rest of Eagle Squad and where's Geofroy?" he asked as he looked around to see that Hugh was the only one.

"They're dead sir, all of them, we were taken by surprise." he suddenly bowed down to the ground in complete deference to his dear leader.

"By what?" Dainn asked, intrigued.

"Succubi sir." he admitted, averting his eyes with shame. "They took us one-by-one, I alone managed to escape." he lied to cover up the fact that he actually ran away like a coward.

The entire camp erupted into a collective gasp of shock. Are the horror stories about succubi true? Does the mythical enemies of the caribou actually exist?

Dainn knew exactly what was going on. "So the Element of Magic learned how to summon succubi I see." he mused to himself. "Typical female, wasting her time protecting her weak friends." he chuckled slightly. "She's probably in Canterlot right now waiting for us, forming one last fruitless stand." he picked up his sword. "Tomorrow will be glorious, I will take immense pleasure in breaking her to be my loyal sex toy, without resorting to using my psychic abilities." he gave an evil laugh before he turned to Hugh. "Don't you think Corporal Hugh?"

"That will be glorious to see sir." he nodded in agreement.

"To bad that will never happen." said Dainn.

Before Hugh could comprehend the meaning, Dainn suddenly plunged his sword straight into Hugh's chest. The corporal gave a look of complete shock and betrayal of the thought of his precious leader murdering him in cold blood. "Why...?" he gasped out.

"Because I have no tolerance for cowards." he said before he removed the sword from the corporal's chest. Hugh just collapsed on the floor, dead, eyes frozen in surprise.

Dainn placed his bloody sword back inside its scabbard without second thought. "Now where is my damn whore I requested!" he yelled to the crowd of his soldiers.

"Present!" said a soft and feminine voice. All the soldiers turned to see to their shock, an Equestrian pegasus female in their camp. Dainn looked to see that it was no ordinary female; but the Element of Kindness herself. "I...I...will gladly be your whore for tonight..." she said in a husky voice, followed by a mindless giggle.

Dainn gave a small smirk. "Now this is a pleasant surprise." he walked up to her. "So tell me Element of Kindness, who was the one that psychically manipulated you to want to become a such a beautiful slut to call my own?" he asked as he walked around the pegasus, inspecting her body and imagining himself fucking it. Nice hair, check, good complexion and coat, check, a look of sheer purity, check, ample...proportions, double check. He large grin formed on his face. "I would like to commend him."

"Hugh sir, he used his abilities to show my true calling...to be his personal slut to spite you." Fluttershy admitted without care in a childish tone voice.

"How treasonous of him." he said in a playful tone. "Thank goodness I killed him, I have no tolerance for traitors." he said, his face near Fluttershy's face. "But I can be your new master Miss Kindness, I have much more integrity, honor and bravery than your old one." he proposed.

The mare's face lit up with excitement. "Can you give it to me nice and hard?" she asked. "This little one has been a very bad mare and she needs a daddy to punish her, badly." she whispered in a seductive, husky voice. "Please be my daddy, my pussy is dripping and winking in anticipation." she playfully begged.

Dainn chuckled, happy at how is luck has suddenly changed for the better. "Of course I'll be your new daddy, now come inside my tent so you can get your well deserved 'punishment'." he invited the mare inside his tent.

Fluttershy gave an air headed giggle in response and happily trotted inside. Dainn was about to follow suit. "But sir?" suddenly asked a random soldier. "What about this other mare we just captured?" he wondered while pointing to a cage that held a random mare as it was being removed from the prison carriage.

"She's all yours to do as you please." Dainn said to his soldiers without a second thought before he walked inside his tent and closed it shut so as not to be disturbed. All the soldiers cheered in celebration from the unexpected treat and they all quickly gathered around the mare who gave a loud scream.

To be continued...

Spirit

Luna sat by the fire in deep thought. Her unwanted bovine traveling companion talked endlessly about how she is now an Element of Harmony, but the princess payed no attention. She was too focused on how everything went wrong, especially why Twilight would betray the expectations her sister set for her. "I am sorry Celestia, I should've watched over Twilight better, protected her from Sombra's influence..."

"So what's the plan?" eagerly asked Arizona, who was eager to fight, proud of the element around her neck.

"Send you home." said Luna. "It's too dangerous for a calf like you."

"Dangerous?!" said the calf, offended. "I may only be a year old, but I am the toughest calf in my herd!" she explained. "I defeated my father in a duel once!"

"I am sorry my little calf, but this crisis is much bigger than you, I don't understand why the element chose you because I can't see any worth from you apart from over confidence and blu-" before she could complete the sentence, she was suddenly sent into the air by a large shock wave. She landed with a thud back on the ground. "Ooof!" Luna looked up to see a fault line on the ground that emanated from underneath Arizona. She starred down at the princess with an overconfident smirk.

"Do you see any worth from me now?" she asked the princess.

Luna just sighed. "Better than nothing..." she mumbled to herself before she walked off.

"So what's the plan?" asked Arizona, who was ready to fight and be a hero for once.

"First, we find the rest of the Elements of Harmony." Luna explained before a disturbing thought entered her mind. "And I have a feeling that there is only one being in all of Equestria that knows where they are..." she said ominously.

"Great!" the calf said pumped for the adventure. "Who is this wise being we are going to see?"

"...Chrysalis." said Luna.

At Ponyville, many of the town's residents gathered at Town Hall for an emergency meeting. The entire audience was unsure about what is going on, most confessing gloom and doom, especially Lily. The mayor loudly banged the gavel to quiet the crowd. "Quiet, Quiet! I know we are all afraid from having caribou enter our town, but we have ponies here who know what is going on, so please hear them out before you all start running around in panic." the mayor announced before she turned over the podium to Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie and Velvet.

"As you may have heard," began Dash. "we are indeed being invaded by the caribou." she explained, only to be met by worried whispers within the crowd. "but this does not mean that we're doomed, we can still defeat them and stop them!"

"How?" asked a skeptical Carrot Top. "I heard they had psychic powers and have advanced weapons."

"Yes, but we have something that they don't have."

"And what is that?"

"The magic of friendship!" Dash boasted with confidence.

The entire audience erupted in laughter. "You think friendship is going to defeat them?" laughed Carrot Top.

"Well, do you have any other bright ideas?" snarled Dash.

"I for one welcome our new caribou overlords!" chimed in Lyra as she began to file down her horn, only for Bon Bon to swipe the file away.

Suddenly, the door of the meeting hall burst open and a cloaked Zecora walked in pulling a wagon filled with large burlap sacks. "Please do not panic my fellow ponies, I am a master of ceremonies, when it comes to finding ways to defeat, those caribou with visions obsolete."

"And how do we do that?" asked a skeptical Carrot Top.

Zecora grabbed a bag and threw it to the group, causing the bag to burst open to reveal that it was filled with poison joke. "By using Ponyville's secret weapon, a place that is dangerous to step in, the Everyfree forest where things run wild, a place that is so feared and so reviled." she explained.

"Zecora may be on to something." commented Rarity in deep thought. Dash and Applejack were on the same wavelength with her.

"If they're gonna take this town, they'll have to fight for it." added Applejack. "We will not let these no good varmints take Ponyville easily without putting up a good fight!" she said with determination. She looked over to her younger sister, older brother and Granny Smith.

"Yeah!" agreed Rainbow Dash. "This is our town, and we will defend it to keep it that way!"

"You can't be serious!?" asked Carrot Top in disbelief.

"Got any better ideas that does not involve surrendering?" bluntly stated Applejack.

The orange maned mare looked around to see everyone in the room starring at her with mean looks, this angered her more. "Okay fine, go and risk your lives and freedom for this town, because while you do so, I'll be halfway to Griffinstone by then." she got up and left the room in disgust.

"Come on y'all!" cheered a determined Applejack. "Let's protect our town!"

"YEAH!" the audience cheered back. Everyone quickly scrambled out of the hall since they only have until the morning before the caribou arrive. Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash hopped that the gamble would work out, they refuse to think about what would happen should they fail. They must not fail.

In a flash of blue light, Luna and Arizona appeared inside the changeling hive of Chrysalis herself. It was extremely dark, the only thing that can be seen are the glowing eyes of the creatures themselves. It sent shivers down both their spines but they trotted along to the queen herself regardless.

"Why Luna, I wasn't expecting you so soon." hissed the hive queen herself. "What brings you to my hive?" she lounged on her spot in the center of the hive, like a spoiled monarch.

"I know you have changeling spies in almost every nation on this planet, so I thought you could help me with something of grave importance." stated Luna in a no nonsense manner.

"And that is...?" she asked.

"Find the Elements of Harmony." answered Luna in a serious tone.

Chrysalis then turned her eyes over to the calf, to see an element around her neck. The queen added everything up in her mind and gave a large smirk. "So we have new element bearers I see." she chuckled. "What happened to the old ones?" she evilly smirked. Luna just glared at the changeling queen. The queen rolled her eyes. "Ugh, fine, I'll tell you where they are...but under a few conditions."

"And those are?" the lunar princess asked with suspicion.

"First, I demand a non-stop shipment of love...preferably a monthly tribute." she chuckled. "Preferably male, but you can throw in an occasional female to keep me interested."

"Anything else?" butted in an impatient Luna.

"Oh...yes..." she hissed. "I also demand foal support payments." she said with a smirk.

"Why would YOU need foal support payments?" asked Luna suspiciously.

Chrysalis just cackled loudly, the changelings around them could be heard gleefully hissing in the darkness. The queen suddenly clapped her hooves and the entire hive was illuminated in light. "THIS is why." she pointed to all the changeling around her.

Luna and Arizona looked around to see all of the changelings, only to see that they are all...different. Instead of a pitch black exoskeleton, they all had dark gray coats and instead of being bald, these changelings all have turquoise manes, but everything else about them was typical changeling. "What kind of changelings are these?" she asked as these new drones circled above them, all of them giggled like foals.

"My beautiful hybrid freaks." Chrysalis announced with pride. "Courtesy of my love generating deadbeat father of a toy Shining Armor." she gloated before she laughed manically. Luna and her calf companion looked on in complete shock.

Dainn happily powered some mead for himself and the mare he is entertaining for the night. He might as well try to make the mood romantic since it was extremely rare for a female to gladly have sex with him.

"So when are we going to fuck?" asked the mare who lounged provocatively on Dainn's bed. The yellow coated pegasus mare playfully pouted.

"Don't worry, we'll get to that my little one, I need to set the mood first." he smiled as he gave the mare the cup of mead. "Drink up my little one."

"Thank you." she gladly took the cup and chugged down within a matter of seconds. "Mmmm, yummy." she giggled.

"Now before we get to the fucking, I need to do some psychic clean-up." he caribou explained. "I need to replace Hugh's psychic influence with mine, it won't feel right knowing that someone else did all the work in turning you into a slut, so I must rectify that."

The mare smiled. "Okay, just make it quick, I need it badly." she cooed.

Dainn just gave a small chuckle before he pressed his forehead up against the mares. He closed his eyes and concentrated. At first everything went smoothly, he mentally cut the tendrils that were enveloping her mind but once he finished, he felt something strange. He felt something pure and innocent, he started to feel everything brighten and warm up. "What is this? Is this what innocence feels like?" he thought to himself with confusion. "NO!" he quickly broke the mental link and pushed the mare away, he quickly cowered in fear in one corner of his tent. "What are you?!" he asked.

Fluttershy got up from the bed and shook her head with confusion. "Huh?" she looked around her. "Where am I?" her voice stuttered with apprehension. She then saw the great caribou leader cowering at a corner. "Caribou!" she gasped with fear before she dove under the covers of the bed. "Please don't hurt me, I would do anything you ask, just don't hurt me, my friends or my animals." she shivered.

"So...much...innocence...never seen so much..." he muttered in his catatonic state. The mare heard that and peaked out from the bed with curiosity. She saw the caribou shivering in the corner. She tilted her head with curiosity before she got off the bed and cautiously walked up to him. "STAY AWAY FROM ME!" he snapped as he grabbed his pistol, he had trouble aiming considering that his right foreleg was shivering. "DON'T GET ANY CLOSER!"

"I...I...just wanted to see if you are okay mister..." she responded with genuine concern. "...but I guess if you want...I'll just leave..."

Nervous sweat dripped down Dainn's face. "Why is your heart so pure...it's not possible...especially from a grown mare...should've been corrupted..." he stammered, his mind tried its best to comprehend what he felt.

Fluttershy looked on. "Well...I wouldn't say I am that innocent...I have done some...things...with stallions...yeah..." she never felt comfortable bringing up the topic of her sexuality which explained why her face was beet red from the blushing. "...but I never let that change my worldview..." she tried her best to explain how she remained pure and innocent despite her sexual history, but it is something that cannot be explained.

He gulped. "Normally such a thing would make me hard...but yours...I just can't...I don't have the heart to soil such a...dare I say...beautiful thing? Is that a good word to describe it? I don't know anymore..." he grew more nervous and confused by the second. He dropped his pistol to the floor, he gave up bothering to aim. "I haven't seen such a thing since..." his eyes grew large as the realization dawned on him. "...mother..."

"Your mother?"

He could still remember her screams from when she was beaten to the death by his father for interrupting his beating. The day Dainn told his father he wanted to be a priest to possibly become one of the great rune masters. But his father was adamant of him following his footsteps in becoming a customs officer, an occupation that eight previous generations of his family took part in. His father has beaten him plenty of times before, but on that day, he went extremely hard, to the point that his mother made the fatal mistake of getting in the way, an act that enraged his father even more. "Please stop dad...you're hurting her..." he mumbled.

"Hurting who?" asked Fluttershy with confusion, only to be met by a swift slap to the face. "Oof."

Dainn got up from his corner with a face of determination. "No...I must not show weakness...a real bull never shows weakness or emotion..." he said to himself as he pulled Fluttershy by the tail and threw her to the bed. "A real bull gets what he wants!"

The mare tried to get away but was quickly pined down to the bed. She struggled to break free. "Please," she begged. "you don't have to do this...it doesn't have to be this way...it can be fixed..." she pleaded.

"It's too late for that." he said before his antlers started glow. Soon, the pegasus stopped her struggle and her eyes turned dull. "That's right my little one, you are mine to do with as I please." he grinned. He was suddenly pulled down by the mare as she roughly kissed him.

"Mmmm, I want it!" she hissed into his ear.

"With pleasure." he quickly nibbled her neck in response. The mare shivered and moaned in pleasure. His own member unsheathed itself to make eagerness known. But before he could thrust into her awaiting cunt, the screams of his mother began to echo in his mind. "NO!" he screamed again. He got off the bed and sat on the floor as he held his head. "I CAN'T DO THIS, TOO MUCH!" he yelled.

The mare looked on with confusion. Dainn looked up at the mare, the mare who reminded him too much of his dead mother. "Master?" was all she said in a childlike manner.

Dainn's antlers glowed once more to undo what he did to the mare, returning her back to her old self. She shook her head in confusion. "Just go and leave me alone..." he said dejectedly as he sat on the floor.

Fluttershy looked on with pity. "You loved your mother dearly didn't you?" was all she asked.

"She was the only one in my life to show me genuine kindness...so much like you..." he dared not to make eye contact.

Fluttershy placed her hoof under his chin so she can look into his eyes with sincerity. "Look..." she began. "it's never too late to fix things, I bet your mother is imploring you to just give up this invasion and repent for all the bad things you have done." she assured. "Just ask for forgiveness...apologize for all the wrongs you have caused."

The leader looked up with a look of uncertainty, but suddenly, a smirk spread across his face. "You may have as much kindness as my mother...but there's one thing that sets you two apart." he smirked.

"What's that?" asked the mare. She was suddenly grabbed by the mane and forced upon Dainn's face, his eyes were now full of hate.

"She was never a naive bitch like you." he hissed before she slapped the mare to the floor, a black eye suddenly formed around her left eye. He went over to his desk and grabbed some rope, he pinned the pegasus to the floor and proceeded to tie up her wings. She never struggled, she just cried loudly from the slap and her fate. "SHUT UP YOU BITCH!" Dainn yelled as he swiftly kicked the mare hard in the stomach. The caribou grabbed a blue collar from his desk and forced it around the mare's neck.

"You don't have to do this..." she pleaded through her tears. Some blood dripped out of the corner of her mouth. "...never to late..."

"It's too late for me." he said with annoyance. "Especially since I am so close to my goal." he kicked her again while she was still on the floor, to afraid to get up. The mare just grunted in pain as she spat out some blood. Dainn suddenly tied a chain to the collar and tied the other end to the bed. "Since you like animals so much, I think this will be appropriate." he smirked as his horns started to glow again. Fluttershy soon stopped crying and also stopped struggling after a short while, she started whimpering for another reason.

"Need...to...breed..." she hissed with desperation as she started to rub herself in a pathetic attempt to ease her powerful primal urges. "I smell...male...smells so good." she moaned as she rubbed her dripping opening. "Breed me please...you smell so good!" she begged as she slowly crawled over to the male, still rubbing herself. "I want your seed...inside me...make lots of babies...please impregnate me!" she begged as she rubbed her face against Dainn's foreleg. The male just chuckled, impressed by his work.

"Get on the bed and present yourself." he ordered. The mare did as told, she climbed on to the bed and got into position, she moved her tail out of the way to expose her dripping and hungry marehood. Dainn saw her excitement slowly drip down on to the bed, her scent reminded him of a babbling brook in a vast forest. Her dark yellow lips inviting him inside.

"Please...I want it!" she begged and whined. Her loins burned in desperation.

"As you wish." Dainn smirked, licking his lips. Without hesitation he dove in and stuck his snout into her opening. His tongue happily sampling the sweet nectar that the element of kindness produced. It tasted like has was drinking the most cleanest and refreshing river water on the planet. His forehooves grasped her rump tightly as he continued running his tongue along her sweet hole. It drove him wild.

"Oh...that's my good..m-master." she muttered between gasps. "Oh sweet Celestia your tongue feels amazing!" she yelled out the moment his tongue flicked at her clit. "PLEASE STOP FUCK ME ALREADY!" she screamed as she grind her rump against the caribou's face. "Fuck me and make me pregnant! I want it!" she gasped with desperation.

Dainn responded with a slap to her rump, eliciting a guttural moan from the pegasus mare. He was already fully erect and ready to finally have his way with one of the elements of harmony. "As you wish my pet." he said with smug satisfaction. He carefully and methodically lined his girth against her opening and holding on to her rump, then, throwing caution to the wind, he thrusted inside her. Fluttershy could not help but give out a feral whinny from the sheer pleasure she received and from the thought of finally being bred. His thrusts went faster and deeper with each second.

"AHHH!" she screamed followed by a serious of heavy moans with filthy and colorful language. She felt him slam inside her, almost to the hilt, each one felt like pure bliss to her as her mind was now only focused receiving the best orgasm of her life.

"Oh fuck you are amazing." he grunted through gritted teeth as he felt her inner muscles tighten around his member. "Your friends will have a hard act to follow..." he panted as sweat flowed down his brow. He can sense her orgasm coming, as well as his own.

"None of my friends are better at fucking than me!" she said with determination. "They're prudes compared to me!" she boasted, but she felt the wave that is her orgasm arriving. "OH FUCK...CAN'T HOLD ON..." she shrieked before a deafening whinny echoed within the tent. Her inner walls clamped down hard on his dick, trapping him in place and finally sending him over the edge. "MAKE ME PREGNANT MASTER DAINN!"

Right on cue, Dainn sprayed his seed inside her as she wanted. Her inner muscles refusing to let his cock go, milking him for what it is worth, she moaned from the feeling of his sperm inside her. Her grip soon lessened enough for Dainn to finally withdraw his member from her. "Good girl..." he panted while he proceeded to pet her on the head like a dog. He then kissed her on the lips as a way to express his lingering feelings of pure lust. "Did master fill you up?" he asked.

Fluttershy looked down to see some seed begin to leak out of her vaginal opening. She smiled at the sight and happily nodded. "More than enough master." she cooed.

Dainn just smirked at such an adorable face. "Now go to bed, we have a long day tomorrow of conquering ahead of us." he said in a slightly playful tone, kissing her forehead.

"Night, night master." she responded in a child-like manner before she lay her head up against his chest and held him tightly, nuzzling. She soon fell in to her slumber. Dainn just looked down at the mare and the cute face of her asleep. He could not wait to conquer the remaining five elements of harmony.

"I'll wait until I capture Canterlot and her friends before releasing her from my psychic influence, she'll be more easy to break by then." he chuckled before he himself went to sleep, he needed a good night's rest, especially after such a workout.

In Canterlot castle, night fell, and Twilight walked the long stained glass window lined hallway. The entire place ransacked, every stained glass window broken, except for one. The mare looked up to see it was the one commemorating her accession as alicorn and princess. She was hit by a pang of guilt, in hindsight maybe she should've accepted her destiny forced upon her, then maybe this whole mess wouldn't have happened.

"Twilight? There you are." said a relieved Sombra. "I thought you ran off to save your friends..." he looked at what she looked at. He knew exactly what was going on. "There's no use in worrying about past mistakes Twilight, it distracts us from moving on to face the next challenge ahead of us."

"I just want my friends and Equestria safe," she explained. "I don't want Celestia's death to be meaningless." Sombra saw tears well up in her eyes, he immediately wrapped her in a hug.

"We're facing an enemy so much similar to me...it's striking." he looked out to the distance. "Both created by war, both despotic dictators, both former heroes, both open to brutally subjugating their own subjects."

"But he's also different in other ways Sombra." she pointed out as she nuzzled his neck. "You were corrupted by greed while he was corrupted by misogyny and a mythical past. You wanted all the crystals to yourself, he wants all the females to himself. So please don't compare yourself to him," she pleaded. "You're better than and comparing yourself to him only brings you down to his sick and twisted level."

Sombra just held her. "You're right my love...I'm sorry..." he apologized with slight shame. He sometimes wondered what will happen to him once this whole thing was over, it was the only thing he truly had idea about, a frightening thought since he loved to plan ahead.

The sounds of the night were swiftly broken by the sounds of a bell ringing frantically. Someone was at the castle gates. Both the dark king and Twilight galloped over to the main entrance to see who, or what, was there. But what they saw was completely unexpected; an army of Royal Guards, all looked exhausted from the long hike and from Tirek draining away their magic. But even under the torch lit darkness of the palace grounds, Twilight was able to spot the most important member of the group.

"Shining?"

"Twiley...?"

To be continued...

Triumph

To Our Valorous And Loyal Subjects:

It was the start to a speech that would change Dainn's life forever. It was rare for the Kaiser to give a speech outside of his birthday or during "Foundation day", especially on the radio. But the war against the reindeer has lasted just over four years now, things were getting desperate.

We has't 'rd'r'd our gov'rnment to communicateth to the gov'rnment of the Rein Kingdom yond Our Kingdom accepts the provisions of the armistice.

Everyone who heard that line winced, four years of sacrifice were for nothing.

At a Caribou army hospital in the tundra plains of the Rein Kingdom, everyone gave dejected looks. One of the patients did everything in his power to keep himself from lashing out in anger. Although thick bandages covered his eyes, that were exposed to the poison gas the Reindeer used against them, he heard the message loud and clear; the great Rangifer Kingdom is capitulating to the enemy, the first time the kingdom has ever lost a war.

Uniteth thy total strength, to beest devot'd to construction f'r the future. cultivate the ways of rectitude, fost'r nobility of spirit, and w'rk with resolution – so yond thee may enhanceth the innate gl'ry of the imp'rial state and keepeth pace with the progresseth of the w'rld.

He Kaiser finished his speech and the royal anthem played on the radio. It is said that immediately following the speech, he quietly signed his abdication papers and self-exiled himself to a tropical location to live a life of endless debauchery. This left the Althing scrambling to form a new non-imperial type of government.

To Dainn, who sat in bed, temporarily blind and incapacitated, this was the first in a long line of humiliations against the nation he loved and fought for.

For the next year after the speech, the Rangifer Althing sent a seven member commission, four cows and three bulls, to Canterlot to work out a peace treaty that would officially end the most terrible war, all while it was mediated by Princess Celestia herself.

Dainn hopped that the commission would return with a favorable peace deal, but was stunned to hear that the commission accepted in a four to three vote, coincidentally along gender lines, the harsh and humiliating peace that the reindeer forced upon them. It felt like a stab in the back for the young caribou bull. "This Carthaginian peace will not stand!" he vowed to himself.

As part of the peace treaty, the Rangifer army was disbanded, and Dainn found himself back on the streets. He had no one to rely on but his old army friends, his mother was dead and his father was dead to him. He eventually got a job as a "lector" at a local factory, where he spent ten hours a day doing nothing but reading newspapers and novels to the workers to entertain them. To a caribou teenager, the job was too underpaid and too mind-numbly boring to put forth any effort.

Dainn would spend most of what little he earned on mead and sex, he would frequent his local mead hall that his old army friends would also frequent. The group would mostly sit around a long table, drinking heavily, discussing politics, decrying the decline of their kingdom and yearning for the mythical past all while cows sat on their laps pouring them their drinks.

One day, Dainn read the news of the new chancellor's pick for Foreign Minister to his friends in the hall. "Chancellor Betlic has announced that MA from Accrington Ara Head, a former peace commissioner who negotiated the Treaty of Canterlot will be the new Foreign Minister for Rangifer." he read to his friends with venom. They all booed in return.

"She's that bitch who stabbed us in the back!" yelled one of the caribou. "I have a feeling she'll stab us in the back even more with the other nations! All females do is capitulate; they have no backbone to show any toughness and prefer that 'diplomacy' shit over the more effective and powerful war!" he yelled, speech slightly slurred from drinking.

"I agree with you Wyne!" stated Dainn. "War is what keeps a society great and on track! Ever since the army was forcibly disbanded three years ago, we've seen this once proud nation turn to shit!"

"Yeah!" they all yell in agreement.

"The Althing keeps taking away rights once exclusive to bulls and giving them away to less qualified cows!" complained another male between gasps as a cow gave him a blow job under the table.

"Vernon is correct!" Dainn pointed out. "Do we want to live in a world where our future sons have to be subservient to females? Where they have to ask for..." the next word was a struggle for him because every time he said it, a piece of him dies. "...CONSENT!?"

"Males get what they want when they want without asking!" yelled a drunk male.

"That's right! And as the true alpha males around here, we will not let this injustice stand! We will make MISS HEAD and her female accomplices accountable for stabbing this nation in the back!" Dainn snarled to his friends before he chugged down his mead, grabbed a nearby waitress, and forcibly kissed her without consent. Everyone cheered on at the sight.

Exactly five years after the surrender speech, Dainn and his loyal friends finally decided to set their plan in motion. At noon on that day, the group arrived at the Rangifer Foreign Office where the Minister of Foreign Affairs' office was located.

Dainn walked up to the secretary. "Uh, excuse me miss." he began, pretending to be nervous to catch the employees off guard. The secretary looked up at him. "We're members of the SPD's University Wing and we wanted an interview with Miss Head, for our political newspaper of course," he explained. He looked back at his friends who waited patiently.

"We're sorry, but you need to make an appointment first and I don't see you on the list." the secretary explained. Dainn looked back at her and his antlers began to glow. The secretary looked at him with a blank expression.

"You will lead us to her office without question and then afterwards go fuck yourself." he calmly instructed to her.

"Okay..." began the secretary in a catatonic state, "...I'm sure Miss Head can spare an hour out of her schedule for you." she got up. "Right this way gentlemen." she then leads Dainn and his six friends to the main office.

Ara Head read over several papers in her office when her office door opened to reveal her secretary, Dainn, and his six friends walk in. "These seven want to interview you for their newspaper." explained the secretary.

The middle-aged foreign minister just sighed. "This better be quick Maud." she motioned the secretary to leave them be before she turned to the seven males. "Let's make this quick, I understand you are members of the youth wing." she then saw some of the males run around the office, grabbing office furniture and barricading them against the main door. "What are you doing?" she asked with confusion.

Dainn gave the signal and his friends quickly grabbed Ara and tied her legs up together. "Fuck with this country and you'll get fucked back in return," said Dainn without emotion.

"LET ME GO! SECURITY!" she yelled out as she tried to struggle out of this.

"Go ahead, scream, we need their attention anyways," Dainn smirked before he gave another signal to his comrades. His six comrades just grinned widely. They dragged the foreign minister to the floor and forced her mouth open as they revealed their awaiting erections to her.

"NO WAIT! STOP!" was all she said before a cock was shoved down her throat.

"Just shut up and take in your dick you backstabbing bitch!" snarled one of Dainn's friends. "Now do your true duty as a female and be a good cum dumpster for us males." he chuckled as he awaited his turn to put his dick down her mouth.

Dainn sat back and watched with a smirk. He suddenly heard security pounding at the door. He calmly walked up to the door. He opened the door slightly to see who it was.

"What's going on in there?!" asked a security guard trying to force himself through the barricade.

Dainn without emotion used his antlers to hypnotize the guard. "I want the local police force and reporters outside within the next thirty minutes so they can witness my speech, go get them!" he ordered to the guard. He just motioned to his guards to do as ordered and they all scattered.

"Hey look guys!" chimed one of Dainn's comrades. "She's a squirter" he laughed. Dainn turned around to see his six friends taking turns brutally gang-banging the foreign minister. "This MILF sure knows how to fuck!" added another as he forcibly penetrated inside her. Dainn looked over at the desk to see a photo of Miss Head with her husband and two sons. Looking at the photo made him more comfortable that she did indeed deserve to be raped. He then motioned to one of his comrades who was waiting for his turn to get his dick sucked.

"Storm, time to get ready for the speech," he instructed. Storm just nodded in agreement before he walked over to his bag and began to put on old medieval chain mail, a helmet, and a purple cape. Dainn turned to rest. "Gag her, I don't want her screams to distract from my speech." he ordered.

Dainn got on his chainmail, helmet and cape while Storm carried a purple banner. They both walked out the balcony to see a crowd of police officers, Foreign ministry workers, and reporters gathered around curious as to what was going on. They looked at the two caribous walking out to the balcony wearing old obsolete armor and clad in purple. They looked on with a mixture of confusion and skepticism.

"Long live the Kaiser! Long live the Rangifer kingdom!" Dainn shouted to the sky. The crowd began to murmur among themselves. After a minute of silence, he continued his speech. "My fellow countrymen, we of the Rangifer Veteran's Party were raised by the Imperial Rangifer Army, and it could be said that the IRA is our father and older brother. So why have we repaid that debt with this act of ingratitude?" he shouted to the crowd.

The crowd began to gradually become more hostile in response. Some began to shout at him, urging him to get down and stop making a fool of himself.

Sensing the growing crowd hostility, Dainn skipped ahead a paragraph to get to his main point quicker. "We have watched as a postwar Rangifer nation has become infatuated with peace and forgotten the founding principles of the nation. Citizens have lost their desire to fight, let males emasculate themselves, let females go against their biological imperative. Politics is just a facade for females to gain power over us and destroy this great nation. Any long-term plans for the nation a hundred years from now have been consigned to foreign countries like the despicable and degenerate reindeer. We have watched with gritted teeth as the shame of defeat has been ducked and avoided rather than wiped away, and our own females themselves sully their own history and traditions!" he yelled to the crowd with theatrical rage.

"GET OFF THE STAGE YOU RETARD!" heckled the crowd as they began to throw rock, paper, and garbage at him, but since he was so high up, most failed to reach the balcony. "WE DON'T DEAL WITH SEXIST BASTARDS!" a mass of "boos" emanated from the crowd, loud enough to drown out Dainn.

He just looked on completely stunned, he truly believed that all the males shared his views, but was sorely mistaken. "LONG LIVE THE KAISER!" he yelled one last time before he motioned Storm to get back inside.

Once back inside, he saw his five other friends spraying their cum off their victim. "How did the speech go?" asked one of them to Dainn, they saw a face of dejection and shock.

"I don't think they even heard me..." was all he said before he sat down on a nearby chair.

The six males look on, confused. "So what do we do now boss?" one of them asked.

"Surrender..." was all he said, deep in his thoughts. There has to be a way to spread his ideology in a way that's more digestible to the general population.

Dainn managed to use his powerful psychic abilities to convince the lawyers to give himself and his six friends lenient sentences and luxury treatment in prison in exchange for Dainn not being allowed to personally run for political office. The seven were given more spacious cells, better bed sheets and plumbing, unlimited access to books and eating luxury meals together in Dainn's cell. Not only were they given the luxury treatment, but they also managed to take control of the prison, they spread their ideology among the prisoners, who were made up of former army officers who had to resort to crime to make a living.

During his stay in prison, Dainn began work on his political manifesto that he called "The Purple Book", that outlined his thoughts, philosophies and how his new political party, the National Egalitarian Rangiferine Veterans Party or NERVP, operated. He was determined to make everyone follow his views in order to better the nation he loved.

The first of his friends, Nodin, was released after only 7 months in jail due to illness he contracted while in prison, there was a pneumonia outbreak a few months after they came to the prison. He died barely two months later. The next, Roe, was released one month after Nodin also because of illness and died shortly thereafter, another victim of the pneumonia outbreak.

Not even Dainn was safe, he caught the disease as well, but he managed to pull through it, but came out of it changed. He noticed himself repeating himself more often, making sure everything was perfect and an occasional tremor on one of his forelegs. He also noticed an increase in disturbing and intrusive thoughts. But he continued on with his manifesto, to keep his mind distracted from these thoughts.

Month nine, Denton was released, the was let out early for good behavior, although in reality, Dainn used his abilities on the prison authorities to let Denton free to be with his family. On month ten, Fenton was released early for health reasons, he died three months later from bone cancer. By the end of the year, only Dainn, Storm and Holt remained.

One the one year anniversary of their sentence, Dainn presented his two remaining friends the finished manuscript of his work. "So what do you think of my work?" he asked, as he anxiously paced back and forth in the cell. Trying to keep his mind occupied, he was afraid to let his mind wander.

"It's good, but it's going to take more than just a book to convince the general public on our ideology, much less win seats in the Althing and cabinet," explained Storm. "If we keep this up we will always remain a fringe party."

"That's why I came up with a solution to that." he sat down on his bed. "Now give me a pipe before I murder someone so I can explain," he demanded. His two friends scrambled to do as told, they know that their boss still has trouble controlling his intrusive thoughts. Holt gave him a pipe and light it for his superior. "Thanks," he said before he took a deep smoke, it calmed his mind and nerves. He looked over to his two remaining subordinates. "We tell the electorate what they want to hear," he announced.

"What do you mean?" inquired Holt.

"We tone down our more extreme parts of our platform and then customize it in such a way that it will appeal to whomever we are speaking," he explained. "If we're talking to a farmer, we sell them farm subsidies and higher tariffs, if we're talking to the urban working class, we sell them stronger unions and lower taxes, etc, etc," he stated.

"So we're abandoning our goal to subjugate and punish the females, teach them their biological place, the cornerstone of our platform? Gone?" stated a concerned Storm.

"I didn't say we were abandoning that," he smirked. "I'm just saving that for when we finally win an election with a 2/3 majority, by that point, we can amend the constitution to officially make females inferior and give us unlimited power."

Both caribou just grinned once they figured out the plan. "I love the subtle approach."

After 20 months in prison, both Dainn and Storm were released. Holt was forced to stay behind for murdering another prisoner during a fight. But Dainn promised everyone still in the prison that they will release them all and make them elite soldiers once he achieves complete power.

Soon, the NERVP was founded and began to travel the nation to gain members and support. Dainn's manifesto "The Purple Book" was even given out for free to those who sign up. Just as planned, the NERVP styled themselves as a big-tent, populist, alternative party, their extremely misogynistic and brutal policies either toned down or completely ignored. Just as Dainn predicted, it worked.

Eight years after the brutal war, Rangifer's second election after the monarchy ended was held. The NERVP managed to win 11 seats, mainly in rural areas dominated by the steel and coal industry, but that was not enough for one to join the 12 member cabinet. Dainn did not run for a seat due to his plea bargain deal but did campaign for the candidates that he personally selected.

By this point in time, the now 26-year-old Dainn was living comfortably in a stylish loft in the capital with his 13-year-old second cousin Gemma. It was not long before he submitted himself to his intrusive fantasies of fucking her, it was hard not too, she was extremely attractive and already a perfect example of womanhood. Perfect measurements, perfect proportions and a quiet, subdued and passive personality.

She struggled at first, but it was not long before accepted it, Dainn never took "no" for an answer, and he will not start to do so for as long as he lived.

During a rainy and foggy December morning, the 11 elected NERVP members of the Althing were escorted by the parties official paramilitary arm; the Purple Capes, named for their medieval armor and purple capes. Dainn was there to personally greet them outside the Althing building before the representatives walked inside to listen to the Chancellor's opening speech. A crowd of onlookers and reports looked on at the sight of such a display of theatrics from a minor party. Dainn gave a small smirk at how they were falling for the PR stunt.

Later in the evening, Dainn came back home to his apartment to see Gemma cooking dinner, she now wore a red collar and several scars and scratches from the physical and sexual abusive she has endured, but she no longer cared, she was too mentally broken to care, she has long accepted her new role as her cousin's servant and sex slave, like a true female. "Good evening my pet smells good," he commented with a deranged smile. He sat down to eat.

"I-I-I made stroganoff with krumkaker for dessert master." she quietly said as she brought over her master's plate to the table.

"Delicious," he commented at the food. Gemma then poured mead for him. Dainn smiled. "Now THIS is the ideal life, a stable income, delicious food, and a subservient female to fulfill her master's needs," he said with an evil smile.

"Anyways sir," began one of Dainn's trusted advisers. "it seems that we have stagnated in numbers." he looked over the report. "the number of new registrations has dropped off, if we don't do something soon we'll remain a minor opposition party in the Althing."

"Even after we just founded our official youth and female's wing?" asked a skeptical Dainn.

"Female membership remains at only 8%" explained another adviser. "The majority of the electorate is privy to our ways sir, it will take something short of a crisis to get them to vote for us in higher numbers."

Two years later, in a desperate attempt to prevent the Rangifer government from defaulting on its annual war reparation to the Kingdom of Rein, the mint flooded the market with currency. This short-sighted measure would result in the most severe inflation crisis in history. The inflation rate soared to a peak of nearly 30,000%, with prices doubling every four days.

As part of a PR move, the members of the Purple Capes began distributing free breakfast to the homeless and starving, while members of the party's female's wing opened up free schools for calfs who could not afford it or were homeless. Soon, the citizens began to turn to the NERVP as an alternative to the parties who have so far failed to fix the economic mess they caused.

"Now remember ladies," began a female teacher who was a member of Dainn's party and supporter of the lifestyle, teaching to a group of young female calfs. "You're job is to make sure your master is pleased in any way possible," she explained. "And to raise a new generation of caribou that will make this nation glorious again." The calfs all listened intently. "Also, since bulls are extremely busy in making this nation glorious again, you must never dare inconvenience them in any way, so what do you do if a male solicits you for sex?"

"Accept it without question or doubt, for you are performing your biological and social imperative." they answered.

"And if said male gets you pregnant?"

"Marry him and raise the calf without question or doubt, for a calf's well-being is more important than your own, a calf must always be raised by two parents."

"And if you want to divorce him?"

"Give up on that idea since divorce will inconvenience the male, but accept it without question or doubt if HE initiates the divorce."

"Very good." the teacher beamed at her students. She loved the indoctrination.

Another two years passed before the next election was held, the nation's third, and what would be, last free election. Dainn got ready to go to the local party office to keep track of the returns by telegram. He wore his old army uniform, despite being the party leader and commander of its paramilitary wing, he still wore the uniform of a lowly corporal. He made sure he was dressed immaculate, both to give off a good impression to the press and because his compulsions demanded of it. He saw in the mirror his slave Gemma, now 17, nervously leaning at the doorway. "Can I help you?" was all he said before he carefully and methodically put on his hat.

Gemma avoided eye contact as best as she could as she slowly walked up to him. "Well..." she gulped. "I'm pregnant."

Those two words single handily made Dainn fell like the world grounded to a halt. "What?"

"Isn't this great?" she tried to muster up a genuine smile. "You can finally have the successor you can mold and-"

"Terminate it." Dainn bluntly interjected without a single ounce of thought or emotion.

"B-but..." Gemma was stunned. "...you said abortion is immoral and prevents a female from fulfilling her biological duties and-"

"I said terminate it!" he said with venom in his voice. He made his way to the front door, completely bypassing her.

"But don't you want a successor?!" she was dumbfounded by what her master said.

"I will not allow another rival to my ultimate goal be brought into this world," he explained just as he was about to walk out the door. "Terminate the pregnancy and then pack your bags, you're nothing but used goods to me," he instructed before he slammed the door shut.

Gemma felt his words stab her in her heart. Tears rolled down her cheeks. "I'm sorry master that I failed..." she mumbled.

Later that night, Dainn walked back home, internally proud of himself, his own party won 92 of the 500 seats in the Althing, and two of twelve cabinet positions. The NERVP was now officially the main opposition party. With a smirk, he went up to his apartment to tell Gemma the good news. "Guess what Gemma," he said as he opened the door. "your master is now leader of the-" his eyes went wide from an unexpected sight. "Opposition..." the sounds of a tightrope creaking and swaying was the only thing that could be heard in an otherwise silent room. But what truly bothered Dainn was the knocked over stool in the middle of a perfectly immaculate living room.

One month later, the first cabinet meeting of the new government was held. Chancellor Brun and ten other cabinet officials waited before Storm and Dainn walked in. As the smallest party within the cabinet, they had first pick on cabinet positions, Dainn made himself Minister of Defense, a mostly ceremonial position since the reindeer forcibly disbanded their army, and Storm was made Minister of the Interior, in charge of civil order, culture, sports, and education. They both sat down, both in medieval armor and purple capes.

"I see that you have a thing for the flare." pointed out Brun with contempt. He despised everything Dainn's party stood for, considering them a perversion of the democratic process that he worked hard to preserve for the last 15 years.

"Hate to break it to you Mr. Brun, but the citizens have spoken, and we're here to make sure you all get your collective shit together and to prevent you from squandering your chance to fix this economic crisis." bluntly stated Dainn. He looked around, not counting Chancellor Brun of Social Democrats, there were five social democrats, two of Dainn's party, two from the Social Justice party, both female members gave Dainn and Storm dirty looks and three from other small parties.

"Yeah, and the citizens have proven themselves to be extremely sexist or ignorant about your true intentions." snarled one of the female cabinet officers. "We of the Social Justice party will make your time as chief opposition a living nightmare." she threatened.

"We would love to see you try." snarled Storm to the females with contempt.

Three months into the legislative term, things have become gridlocked in the Althing, with the governing coalition falling apart due to political differences, a coalition who's sole purpose was to prevent the NERVP from getting the privilege of forming a government. At the same time, the NERVP and their coalition of mostly minor right-wing populist parties were much more united and organized and used that to filibuster any bill that was too focused on female interests or issues. Just recently, they filibustered a bill meant to expand calf support payments to single mother to death.

During another chaotic daily session, the Speaker loudly pounded his gavel to quiet everyone down. He looked over at the day's agenda. "Up next we have bill #15-27 'An Act on giving tax incentives to females who leave the public sphere to start a business from their home', Mister Storm for Fallkirk has the floor." announced the Speaker.

"Thank you, Mister Speaker." Storm bowed slightly before he approached the dispatch box in the middle of the chamber. "As you know, times are tough for our citizens, many, especially in the countryside are living in near famine conditions because money has become worthless and scarce, this bill proposes that all females who work in traditionally male-dominated occupations, such as in the coal mines or steel mills, leave their jobs so they can focus on raising their families and earn extra income working from home, so that way, the remaining positions can be filled by the majority male unemployed," he explained. "And as an incentive, give them tax breaks when they do so."

One of the female Althing members stood up. "Mister Speaker, the Honorable Member for Fallkirk is using wooden language to cover up the true reasoning behind the bill." she approached the other dispatch box directly in front of Storm. "He used the same tactic on the previous bill to deregulate prostitution."

"I will have the Honorable LADY the Member for Snowbush know that the claims she made about that previous bill being an excuse to allow males to treat a prostitute in any way he so chooses without consequence is flat out false!" Storm shot her a dirty look. He hated dealing with females in the Althing, especially if they were members of the Social Justice party.

The Speaker banged his gavel. "You know the rules for parliamentary language Mister Storm, I suggest you watch your tone," he warned.

"Sorry sir," he apologized. "what I was trying to say was that the Member for Snowbush has tried to discredit every single bill that myself and my Honorable Friends of my party proposes," he claimed. "That bill was meant to free houses of prostitution from job-killing regulations so they can finally be free to earn even more money and hire even more cows, which is a good thing considering these tough economic times."

"While at the same time exposing them to even greater danger since the bill, which I read word-for-word, would enable their customers to do whatever they pleased without consequence!" she pointed out, disgusted by Storm and his beliefs.

"Those cows volunteered to be sexual playthings for money and they deserve to be treated as such!"

The entire governing coalition which sat to the Speaker's right erupted in jeers and boos, while the opposition just angrily taunted back. The Speaker banged his gavel once again to quiet everyone. "Everyone settle down!" he ordered before he turned his attention to the two at their dispatch boxes. "Now can you two get back to the main topic?" he implored.

The female from Snowbush spoke. "Mister Speaker, what I am trying to say is that the entire Nationalist Egalitarian party is made up of nothing but sexist and violent deplorables, and that the Member for Fallkirk epitomizes that view I have of them!" The opposition jeered and protested while the governing coalition applauded in agreement. The Speaker quickly brought the chamber back to order.

"By extension, the Lady Member for Snowbush is implying that the 18.4% of the electorate that voted for us are also deplorables." pointed out Storm. The entire opposition laughed from the comeback, acting like a bunch of drunk frat boys.

The member from Snowbush just yielded herself from the dispatch box, tired of having to deal with them. A male member of the same party as hers takes her place. "Mister Speaker," he began. "I would like to request that the Honorable Member for Fallkirk treat my Honorable friend with more respect, she may be a female but she deserves as much respect as the male members."

Storm smirked and the opposition quietly chuckled amongst themselves. "There goes the Honorable Member for Oakheart, playing white knight for the Lady for Snowbush," he mocked. "What? Did she promise to suck his cock afterwards?" he smirked. The entire opposition erupted in laughter and began to mock the supposed 'white knight'.

Dainn saw the whole thing unfold from the gallery above them. He saw Storm look up at him, Dainn just silently nodded in response. Storm took it as his cue to move to another part of the room. Dainn then looked at his side to see the only other caribou in the gallery with him; a cow dressed in a bright pink shirt and scarf; the color of the Social Justice party. "You know what to do..." he mumbled under his breath at her before he got up to leave the chamber.

He truly wished he did not have to resort to such a shameful level, but it is for his nation's well-being. Sometimes you have to do morally questionable things to protect and save the homeland you love. He made sure the timing was as close to perfect as possible. With a face in its usual dower form, he calmly climbs down the building's steps and crossed the street where there was a plaza. He calmly sat down on the bench, grabbed his pipe, lit his match-

A loud explosion emanated from the large parliamentary building. The shock wave knocked everyone nearby down, for Dainn, who was sitting, all it did was snuff out his lit match. He only gave a smirk as a response.

Chancellor Brun was kicked across his living room in the Chancellor's mansion and into a glass chest drawer. He was stunned, but instead of feeling threatened or scared, each kick and punch made him even more angrier and defiant. He slowly got back on all fours, spitting out all the blood that accumulated in his mouth and looked at his opponent, an intruder, a cow, a victim of psychic manipulation from what he could tell. "I know it's not the Social Justice party that put you up to this, so who did?" he demanded an answer. "Was it Dainn's faction?"

The female intruder took out a flintlock pistol, loaded it, and cocked it. "He gives his regards," she said in a creepy monotone.

"Well," he began. "If you're going to kill me, go ahead and do it already!" he snarled defiantly. "KILL ME YOU DAMN BITCH! YOU'RE ONLY KILLING A BUL-" he was swiftly silenced by a bullet between the eyes.

The intruder, as previously commanded, took the weapon and used it on herself.

Storm was rushed to the hospital, body completely covered in burns. He was supposed to escape before the explosion hit as was the original plan but was caught by surprise by the force of the explosion that caused the massive table that separated both sides of the Althing chamber to land on top of him, pinning him down. It did not take long for the fire to reach him and burn him. He cursed his bad luck.

Dainn walked into the hospital room to his friend in bed, his entire torso in bandages, his friend would have been screaming in agony if not for the unusually high stream of morphine being pumped into his bed. Storm looked at his close friend and gave a weak smirk. "How's the Althing?" he asked.

"Gutted." he answered plainly.

"Chancellor Brun?"

"Dead."

"NERVP party headquarters?"

"Firebombed."

"Excellent." Storm muttered. "We have finally achieved our goal." he tried to be smug, but his agonizing pain threatened to show itself in his facial expression. Dainn could tell.

"How bad?" he said flatly as he walked over to the IV machine that was pumping his friend is pain medicine.

"Doctor's gave me a few days tops, pain could literally stop my heart at any moment," he admitted, he looked over at Dainn. "Sorry, I won't be able to serve as your Vice-Chancellor as planned. But you know what to do, you're the Chancellor now, just please don't make my death meaningless...I want this new vision of this once great nation to last 1,000 years." Dainn saw pleading in his friend's eyes.

"I promise that 1,000 from now, our descendants will continue teaching our lessons and practicing the traditions we started." Dainn took out a syringe from his army jacket and injected air into the IV drip forming a large air bubble. "I'll make sure our subjects will worship you as a martyr for our cause," he assured to his dying comrade.

"That's all I ask..." Storm mused. "That's all I ask."

Dainn held an impromptu press conference in front of the smoldering and gutted remains of the legislative building, his first as the new Chancellor since he's the first in the order of succession still alive. "Tonight, this great nation was attacked by left-wing feminist extremists, and therefore, as my first act as Chancellor I have declared a state of emergency effective midnight tonight, and lasting for as long as the threat is present. I promise to use my new powers granted to me during this state of emergency for the betterment of this nation and its citizens."

Before long, many females and some males were sent to re-education camps, to teach them how to become perfect cows. At the same time, all young males were forcibly drafted into the new revived Rangifer army. In towns across the kingdom, government officials would register every single cow and give them new collars that they had to wear, along with a copy of Dainn's book.

With a year or two, society completely changed. All bulls had to spend at least two years of their lives in the military, all cows had to spend at least two years of their lives in either field nursing or serve in the military's official "pleasure squad". Most cows preferred to serve in the pleasure squad since being impregnated and bearing a calf as a result would lead to earning an award, being hailed as a "military hero" and being compensated heavily by the government.

Apart from massive advancements in military technology like hovercraft, motorized bicycles, and advanced steel weaponry; everything else stagnated or regressed. The standard of living and development began to gradually decline as most funds were diverted to funding the military and to line Dainn and his friend's pockets. It didn't help that Dainn solved the inflation problem by scrapping the old currency overnight, forcing his subjects to use gemstones, bartering, or in the case of cows, sex, as a medium of exchange.

But no one seemed to care, or at least pretend not to do so least risking being taken way for "re-education" or worse, lobotomized.

On the seventh anniversary of Dainn's rule, a military and public parade was held in his honor. He watched from the reviewing stand set up in front of the still ruined Althing building with his top generals and his latest gift from the Kingdom of Rein's king himself; a reindeer doe named Velvet. Dainn just stoically looked over the parade and saluted to all that passed by. Keeping sure that his foreleg remained as still as possible despite the occasional tremor.

Looking down, he saw a group of soldiers carry six large canvasses of his old friends, his friends who helped him during his first coup attempt and went to prison together with. All now dead, but still worshiped by the citizens as martyrs for the cause. Despite the decline in living, moral and industrial standards, Dainn and many of its citizens believed that the Rangifer kingdom was becoming greater with each passing year.

ᑲᓐ ᑌᓐᓀ ᓱᑌᕃ ᕃᒉᓪ ᕙᕃ ᐃ ᑐᓭᓐ ᐋᕐ!
[May this great rule last a thousand years!]

Read one banner the soldiers carried. Dainn was certain it will.

ᕓᕐᑌᓐ ᐁᕐ ᑎᖖ!
[The world is yours!]

Read another banner that was carried by several school aged calfs, the message directed at Dainn directly. He just gave a small smile in response. "One day it shall be mine..." he muttered under his breath with hope. "One day it WILL be mine..." he corrected.

Nation

"GUARDS! HELP!" yelled Cadance as she ran around the palace corridors looking for any guard that can help her. To her surprise, she has not spotted one despite the fact that they are trained to respond immediately to her cries. "GUARDS!" she yelled as she rushed into the guard's barracks. She kicked open the door desperately, only to be met with the most horrific sight.

The dead bodies of all of her guards litter the floor of the room in one big blood filled mess. Each and every one of Cadance's guards had their throats slit wide open, every one with their lifeless eyes still open. All of their faces frozen in looks of horror. "No..." mumbled a catatonic princess. She slowly stepped back out of the room only to be grabbed by the neck by a cloaked unicorn. "NO!"

"We need to stop in Ponyville real quick." demanded Twilight to Sombra, Platinum and Jewel as they flew over Equestria in Twilight's hot air balloon.

"What for?" asked a skeptical Platinum. "There's no time."

"I must retrieve some rare spell books that could help us combat these Caribou, my knowledge in combating their psychic abilities is limited." explained the young mare.

"You have me to teach you Twilight." stated Sombra. "I can help you teach you new offensive attacks and techniques."

"Like what?" asked a curious Twilight. Celestia was extremely reluctant to teach her powerful offensive attacks and dark techniques for fear of getting corrupted.

"Like knowing when to kill when necessary." ominously stated the dark stallion as he stared out at the horizon at the distance. The sun just cleared the horizon as Canterlot came into sight. "They have begun their long march to Canterlot." he stated.

"Stags!" began Dainn as he spoke from his hovercraft to his troops. "For as long as we could all remember, this kingdom has been treated as a joke among the nations of this planet, subject to trade embargoes and heavy sanctions because they could not accept our enlightened ways!" he continued. "They can not accept the biological realities of the sexes and they can not accept the natural order of things, but today, we will prove them wrong, that OUR form society is the perfect one, that OUR way of life makes the most natural sense!" several troops voiced their agreement. "Today, we conquer the most powerful nation in the world, a nation that is almost the opposite in almost every way, a nation where their females have the audacity to break from biological purpose and actually rule!"

"We will teach these mares their place!" yelled a soldier.

"Today!" Dainn continued in a very loud and powerful yet dry tone. "Today, we will fight to prove our glory, to prove our superiority, to prove that we are no joke, today, we will fight bravely and with honor, and die in the name of spreading our superior way of life! So let's give these mares a lesson they'll never forget and finally take our place as the best creatures of the planet!"

"ALL HAIL OUR BELOVED LEADER DAINN!" they all proclaimed before they began to chant their national anthem. "Bright traces of blood on the crags of White Mountain still gleam, Still the Kuuk carries along signs of blood in its stream. Still do those hallowed traces shine resplendently. Over Rangifer ever flourishing and free. So dear to all our hearts is our Leader's glorious name, Our own beloved Dainn of undying fame!"

Dainn just gave a small smirk from the sight of his troops praising him. This will be his shining moment, he'll bring the caribou glory no matter what it takes.

Soon, the main gates of the palace open and Dainn's troops immediately march out to the train station to meet up with the mechanized cavalry at the border to officially begin the invasion. As the troops marched down the main street of the capital, the residents gathered at the street to cheer and wave off their brave troops. Red, purple and black banners were waved in a show of patriotism with several waving their national flag of the same color scheme.

"Ahhh cold!" exclaimed Rainbow Dash as ice cold water was splashed on her.

"Got to make sure this pet is as clean as possible for when dear leader returns." said a guard with contempt.

She shivered from not only the coldness of the water, but also from fear of what her captures will do next.

Soon, another caribou walked in, Dash saw that it was Serrell, the one who brought her here. "Is the exotic pet cleaned yet?"

"We just finished the job sir." saluted one of the guards.

"Did you do a full physical on her, I don't want dear leader to get an infection or something dangerous." asked Serrell.

"The nurses have done so, she is slightly used but she is clean of all diseases and infections." reported the guard.

"Good," Serrell was pleased. "now put the customary black collar on her and commence with the plucking." he ordered.

"Yes sir." saluted the guard.

"Plucking?!" Dash exclaimed with horror, she immediately began to fly off towards the exit but another guard immediately clubbed her in the head. The mare fell to the floor hard. "ahhh..." she groaned.

"Better yet, just tie up her wings, we'll pluck them once we have her lobotomized and re-educated." proposed Serrell before he left.

The guards said nothing but salute before they dragged her to the harem to await her lobotomy.

Outside the harem chamber door, the two servants opened the and pushed the female caribou inside. Without saying a word, the two servants closed the door and immediately walked away to await their next task.

Applejack, who hid behind another potted plant by the harem chamber door checked to see that the coast was clear before she walked up to the door. She carefully and quietly pushed the door open, she tried her best to make sure no one was around. Once the door was sufficiently open enough for the mare to squeeze through, she quickly walked inside and quietly closed the door again. She breathed a sigh of relief that she made it in, only to be met by the sounds of girlish giggling and gossiping. The orange mare turned around to see a large room, decorated to appear like a forest complete with a babbling brook and a pond that some caribou females used to bathe in.

"What in tarnation?" Applejack said in shock. "This is a lot more fancier than ah thought."

"Looks can be deceiving." said a new female voice in a Scandinavian accent. Applejack looked to see an actual doe in front of her, she was in awe, she always thought reindeer were myths.

"Ah doe?! Ah must be seein' things!" exclaimed the mare.

"Of course a simple dirt pony like you would think that way." she explained with a smug smirk. "Welcome to Dainn's harem, you must be the new pony mare that I heard was going to be added among our ranks." she introduced. "My name is Velvet, I'm from the nation of Rein in the far north tundra, chosen for my grace, elegance and beauty to appease the Rangifer kingdom." she explained as she suddenly began to twirl her body around like a figure skater. "And you are?"

"My name's Applejack, from Equestria, and ah'm here to save a friend!" she stated with impatience, she really had a mission to complete. "There sooner ah can find her, the sooner we can get out of this no good place!"

"No good?!" Velvet said with offense. "I'll have you know that my Ice Sprites worked hard to make this place more respectable!" she pointed at a group of strange bipedal creatures pampering several caribou females of the harem. They seemed to enjoy the pampering since it kept their mind off of the fact that they are sex slaves to a brutal dictator.

"You seem to actually enjoy this?" Applejack was dumbfounded.

"No I don't, I just like to make the best of a bad situation, I didn't choose to be betrayed by my own deerfolk to be used as a worthless bargaining chip to appease a sexist dictator in order for him not to invade us!" she exclaimed with offense. "Besides, I hate being stuck in a room full of females, I can barely smell my own perfume!" she complained for not being the center of attention.

"Ya know, ya remind me of a more prideful version of one of my friends." pointed out the mare. Suddenly, several Ice Sprites ran up to Applejack and began to pet her and untie her red mane bands. "What the hay?!" she tried to push them off of her, but they suddenly began to brush her mane, tail and fur while one gave her an apple to eat. Applejack refused the apple but did enjoy the brushing they were giving her. "What are they doing?!" she moaned slightly from the brushing.

"Doing what they do best, pamper and care for any non-threatening creature they encounter, it's their main purpose in life." Velvet explained. "You get used it." she smugly stated as an Ice Sprite walked in with a bag of oats. "Oh goody, my monthly ration of oats has arrived." she smiled. "Thank you."

The Ice Sprite responded in kind. "ޑ‎އު‎ އާރ‎ ވ‎އާލ‎ކ‎އޮމ‎‎މ‎އެ‎ޱ‎" it squeaked, before it walked off. The others got off of Applejack, her mane and tail tied up the way it was and also walk off.

"Although this place doesn't look that bad." noted Applejack who saw that many of the females looked well taken care of, if not jaded.

"It is, as long as you are a quiet and cooperative sex toy." rebutted Velvet who lied down on her futon and began to eat her oats.

"And what happens when ya not?" Applejack raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, you get lobotomized and then locked in a cage in the dungeons where you'll be raped by low ranking officers almost daily" Velvet explained nonchalantly.

"....what?"

"It's okay, the females become too sex crazed to even care or notice their horrible living conditions. Lobotomizing just turns them into cock hungry five year olds."

"Could that happen to my friend?!" said a stunned Applejack who was worried for Rainbow Dash.

"Only if she doesn't cooperate or behave." the doe stated.

Before Applejack could say anymore, the main door opened. Two guards walked in dragging a struggling Rainbow Dash. "Let me go!" yelled the pegasus mare. She was thrown to the floor and kicked in the stomach by one of the guards.

"Shut up you filthy cunt!" yelled the guard before he kicked her again.

The other guard just calmly walked to the center of the room so that every female in the room can hear. "Okay you dumb sluts," he announced with a smug tone. "today you cows are getting a new roommate, and she's another exotic one too." he motioned for his comrade to drag Dash over to him, which he does. The guard then placed her in a near chokehold so that all the females could see. "This one comes all the way from Equestria, and she has wings!"

Velvet looked on with a vainer of disinterest while Applejack was hidden in away at a random corner of the room by a few sprites.

"I want you cock suckers to welcome this pegasus here to the harem and make sure that she understands the rules, and the punishments that will results if you are NOT an obedient cock sleeve to our beloved leader!" with a smirk he took a nice deep breath of Dash's rainbow colored mane. "Or else you'll be with us instead." he laughed evilly before he unceremoniously dropped the mare to the floor and happily walked out with his friends.

Once the door close, Applejack quickly ran over to Dash who looked shell shocked. "Dash, ah'm here, yer safe now Dash," she comforted. "ah'm here to get ya out of here." All Dash did was shiver with fright.

"I can fix this," stated Velvet. "Need some oats here sprites." she called. A sprite walked up to her and did as told, it gave her a bag of her oats.

"ހ‎އާ‎ރ‎ ހ‎އަ‎ރ‎ ޑ‎އު‎" it squeaked before it walked away.

"Here it this." offered the doe to the pegasus. Dash just sniffed it suspiciously before she reluctantly took a bite and ate some. But suddenly, to her surprise, she felt better. Curious, Dash ate some more of the oats and started to feel her confidence return to her.

Applejack and Velvet looked on to see Dash slowly return back to her normal color. "Dash, you're getting better!" exclaimed the orange mare.

"I feel like I am getting better." stated Dash as she got up from the ground with her new found strength. "What is this stuff?" she continued to eat it.

"Magic oats," answered the doe. "It's how we deerfolk get our magic from." she explained.

"Ah'm glad ya startin' to feel like ya normal self Dash, but we need to get out of here before those no good caribou take over Equestria." the farmer mare urged.

"But how AJ? There's like dozens of guards in this place, how are we going to escape without being noticed?"

Velvet just smiled. "Ladies, today is your lucky day." she smirked. "Sprites!" she ordered. "Escape plan Victor!"

"ޖ‎އަ‎ ފރ‎އު‎ޱ‎!" saluted the sprites as they marched to a nearby propaganda poster of Dainn watching and approving of a male raping a female that read 'it's not rape if it is with a female'. The sprites unceremoniously tore down the poster to reveal a tunnel behind it.

"I've been waiting forever for Dainn to finally have an excuse to leave the kingdom, now is our chance." she stated with overconfident determination. "Let's go ladies."

"But what about the other females?" asked a concerned Applejack. "They don't deserve to stay here either."

"I already thought of it, so don't worry, it has been taken care of." she assured before she and her eight sprites crawled themselves into the tunnel. "They may be sexists monsters, but they are also incompetent as fuck." she continued.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash reluctantly followed suit and crawled inside. As soon as they were gone, all the other females in the harem quickly took out their hidden stash of weapons and began to arm themselves for the upcoming palace revolt.

As the three females crawled through the tunnel, a faint sound of an alarm was heard. "What is that?" asked Dash.

"Don't worry about it, it has been taken care of." she assured with a confident smirk.

At the palace, the harem females stormed the palace and quickly overpowered the guards. "What's going on here?" exclaimed Serrell as he ran out of his office to see a group of females defeating and killing several guards just down the hallway from him. "They're revolting..." he nervously muttered to himself before he quickly yet quietly ran away. The females saw him run away and began to give chase.

Serrell managed to evade the female mob as more guards attempted to subdue them. He ran into the armory building as several homemade bombs exploded inside the palace. "Like I am going to face them without some insurance." he said to himself as he entered the building and ran over to a storage shelf. He opened the shelf to reveal several samples of the potion the Sisterhood made of the caribou. He grabbed a vile and transferred the liquid into a syringe. "Might as well stop them myself." he muttered. But just as he was about to inject himself, the syringe was suddenly destroyed by an icicle projectile. "What the?!" he looked to see Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Velvet standing before him.

"I don't think so." stated Velvet.

"What do you three want?" he snarled incredulously.

"For you to surrender peacefully and to give a radio broadcast announcing that the regime has fallen."

"That's blasphemy!" An icicle was thrown at him and stabbed him on the shoulder. He screamed in pain. "DAMN IT!"

"Not so confident now?" mocked Rainbow Dash.

Blood ran down his foreleg as he pulled out the icicle. That only caused for more blood to gush out. He began to sweat from the pain. "Who cares..." he smirked defiantly. "This coup will be pointless once Dainn conquers Equestria..." he began to feel his body go cold. "You're wasting your time!" his eyes wandered over to a flintlock pistol that practically behind him. He had an idea. "You females never think things through, if Dainn wins, he'll come home victorious and public opinion will turn against you dirty female foreigners!" he continued as a form of distraction.

"And you know what?" he asked as his other foreleg felt the pistol. "EAT DICK!" he exclaimed as he aimed his weapon and was about to fire, only to be silenced by a large icicle to the neck, piercing a major artery. More blood gushed out from his neck as he fell to the floor on a puddle of his own red liquid. "Damn..." he gasped he lost consciousness.

The three females looked on with stunned looks on their face. "Like I said, incompetent as fuck." explained the doe.
