For the war, against the war?

Youtube Video

A pony in a suit stood in front of a large crowd and stage holding a microphone as he said “Tom I’m standing here in the town square where the war rally has been going on for an incredible 87 hours. The crowd still seems to be split down the middle, half support country music and the other rock and roll. Let's listen in.”

The town of Ponyville had been arguing, if not rioting for over a week now over whether they thought Equestria should go to war with the Changelings. Up on the stage Cheerilee, representing the anti-war side, took the microphone and calmly addressed the crowd. “And now we’d like to bring out a couple of very special Ponyville students who did a report about what the founding mothers [those 3 from the Hearth’s Warming Eve flashback/play thingy] would have to say about the war.” as Sweetie Belle, Applebloom and Scootaloo gingerly walked up onto the stage.

The three were greeted with mild applause from the anti-war side of the crowd, followed my booing from the pro-war side as they came to a stop in the middle of the stage and just stood there awkwardly for a moment. Rarity, dressed in a flashy white suit draped with straps and covered in sparkling sequins stepped forward and spoke to the crowd. “For you who still think war is the answer, perhaps you can listen to the voices… of the children.” she said as she majestically pointed towards the three before sliding aside.

Again, the fillies just stood there for a few seconds staring out into the crowd of the entire town until Sweetie Belle finally spoke up. “Uh we didn’t do it.”

“What?” Cheerilee asked, mentally giving them a failing grade on the spot.

“We didn’t do our homework.” Applebloom followed.

“Girls.” said Rarity. ”You were supposed to come out here and tell everypony about the founding mothers”

Applebloom frantically began trying to defend themselves with “Well first we lost one study partner when Diamond Tiara put herself in the hospital and then they took Silverspoon away and Scootaloo forgot to set her clock ahead for daylight savings and we couldn’t find anything in the history books about changelings and it was-” she was cut off by her sister angrily yelling at them.

“That’s because the founding mothers would’ve supported the war!”

“The founding mothers would’ve protested like us!” Rarity yelled back.

The entirely of the pro-war crowd then yelled as one “SUPPORT!!!”

Not letting themselves be shown up so easily, the anti-war crowd yelled back “PROTEST!!!”

The pro-war side yelled back in response “COUNTRY!!!” and got back in turn.

“ROCK N ROLL!!!”

And as the two sides roared, violence finally broke out amongst the crowd as the two side rush one another. Signs that read ‘Peace’ and ‘No War’ were used to impale anypony who disagreed with the wielder as the redneck farmers of this town swung back tri-wielding good ol’ Equestria AK-47’s killing anyone in their way as the three young children just stood up on stage and watched.

The stage was rush by both pro-war or anti-war ponies and as they clashed on top of the fillies, they dispersed leaving only Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. Scootaloo’s body lay in front of them. “Oh my Celestia. They kill Scootaloo!”

“You Bastards!”

Most shocking of all was the the sight of Twilight Sparkle’s head skeered on an Equestrian Flag’s pole with her wings dangling from it and the words ‘Thanks M.A. Larson’ written in her blood on the flag as the small Hub logo on the bottom right of it faded and was replaced with the words ‘Discover Family’.

The fighting raged on for ages, almost unendingly. That was, until “Everypony stop! Please!” Diamond Tiara said from the stage as she spoke into the microphone, still wearing a hospital gown.

One of the protesters, or possibly a supporter, who knew at this point, looked towards the stage and was able to mutter out “Th-the child… the child, from the hospital.”

“If you all don’t mind. I’d like to do my report now.” she said and waited. The violence had stopped and all eyes were on her. “I know what the founding mothers would say.”

“She does?...” Sweetie Belle asked and turned to Applebloom

“She does?” Applebloom asked right back.

“This country was founded by some of the smartest thinker the world has ever seen. And they knew one thing. That a truly a great country can go to war and at the same time, act like it doesn’t want to.” confusion washed over the crowd at her words. “You ponies that are for the war. You need the protesters. Because it makes the country look like it’s full of sane caring individuals. And you ponies who are anti-war, you need these flag wavers. Because, if our country was made up of nothing but soft-pussy-protesters, we’d get taken down in a second! That’s why the founding mothers decided we should have both. It’s call having your cake, and eating it too.”

As it washed over the crowd and their bloodlust fade, Mrs Cake pulled her hooves away from her husband's throat, as did Pumpkin from Pound’s. “She’s right…” Rarity said, standing next Applejack, covered in blood and dirt and purple eyed that wasn’t from eye-liner. “The strength of this country is it’s ability to say one thing and do another.” she said, remembering the time they imprisoned Discord but murdered the shit out of Sombre, the head of a foreign country that they then took over.

Applejack beside her, thinking something along the same lines, added “Yeah… if it weren’t for you guys protesting, everypony around the whole would hate the Equestrian ponies instead of just Sunbutt.”

“And if it weren't for you people flexing your arms,” Cheerilee said to the pro-war pony beside her. “Equestria could easily get taken over by terrorists. Or the Chineighs. I guess… we owe you an apology.”

“And I guess we owe you one…” Fluttershy said right back to her as the crowd around them ‘awww’d and the two hugged. The entire crowd then erupted into a deafening wave of ‘awww’s and hugs as apologies and ships were launched all around. This continued for some time as the two remaining fillies watched on in shock of what they’d just seen.

“Diamond Tiara…” Applebloom muttered. “Diamond Tiara saved the day?”

“Can’t be…” Sweetie Belle replied.

Back on the stage Diamond tiara saw it had worked and spoke up once more. “The founding mothers want you all to know, that we can disagree all we want. Just so long as we all agree that Equestria kicks ass.”

Coming back onto the stage, Applejack took the mic. “Hey I’m a little bit country.~”

Rarity walked up beside her “And i’m a little bit rock n roll!~”

“I’ll be the muscle of Equestria.~”

“And me I’ll be the caring soul!~”

“When you put us together you get a nation with one goal. To thrive and prosper. With a little country and rock n roll!~”

“Come on up here everypony!” Rarity shouted. And soon the entirety of Ponyville came up onto the stage and sang as one “We’re a little bit country… we’re a little bit rock n roll…~”

Fluttershy sang along “We can be a nation that believe in war…” and let it off.

Cheerilee picked it up for her “And still tells the world that we don’t.” and then jumped Fluttershy leading to a lesbian horse make-out session on the ground.

As one, again the crowd sung, including all those ponies who had died earlier, didn't live in Ponyville, or where even only in one episode ever joined them rising from the stands behind them in a grandiose show of all those who’d ever been in My Little Pony. “Let the flag for hypocrisy fly high from every pole ‘cause we're a little bit country… and a little bit rock n roll!~”

Rarity took the mic first and looked directly into the camera. “Well goodnight everypony, it sure has been great bringing you 100 episodes.”

Applejack followed with “We’d like to thank the pro-war ponies.” then paused for applause. “And the anti-war ponies.” more small applause.

“What the hell are they doing now?” Applebloom asked.

“I-I don’t know.” Sweetie Belle said as she facehoofed.

All as one they sang “For the war, against the war, who cares!? 100 episodes!” while two up front dances and prance as fire exploded in the background.

“I hate this town…” Sweetie Belle muttered and walked away. “I, really really do…”

The end.
