Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The Mane 6, Haako, Gunray, and OOM-9 walked up to the C-9979s.

"The dragon invasion should be starting soon," Twilight stated.

"Yes! All battle droids, line up!" Gunray yelled.

Then all of the battle droids from the 3 C-9979 Landing Crafts came out of each. There was a total of 1,320 B2 Super Battle Droids (B2-HAs included), 9,408 B1 Battle Droids, 342 Armored Assault Tanks, 220 Hailfire-class droid tanks, and 280 OG-9 Homing Spider Droids. The Separatist Droid Army waited for the dragons.

"Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, lead the droid starfighters!" Gunray commanded.

Fluttershy looked down at the ground sadly. She didn't want to work with Rainbow, but she knew she had no choice.

"As you command, Viceroy," Fluttershy said, her voice low.

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy flew up into the sky as they saw the Lucrehulk-class Droid Control Ships and the Profiteer descend into Equestria.

"WOW! The CIS is bringing out the heavy weapons!" Rainbow told Fluttershy.

"YAY! GO CIS!" Fluttershy replied lowly.

Inside the Profiteer's Bridge, TA-1313 looked at Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy pass the Lucrehulk-class battleship.

"Launch all fighters from the Profiteer!" he commanded the OOM Pilots.

"ALL 1,500 Vulture-class droid starfighters, 80 Hyena-class bombers, and all 40 Droid Tri-Fighters?!" the OOM Pilot Droid asked.

"YES!"

Then the Profiteer launched the 1,500 Vulture Droids, 80 Hyena Bombers, and the 40 Droid Tri-Fighters. Fluttershy turned around and saw the massive the droid starfighter squadron following them. "Rainbow, our fighters have arrived," she told the arrogant pegasus.

"Huh? Oh look, Fluttershy, the droid starfighters are here!" Rainbow yelled.

"Don't know why I even said that," Fluttershy said to herself.

The AATs faced their heavy laser cannons up in the sky. OOM-9 pulled out his electrobinoculars.

"Hmm. Wait! I see them!" he yelled.

"Can I see them?!" Pinkie asked the OOM Commander.

OOM-9 looked at Pinkie.

"Fine. Just don't lose them!" he told her.

He gave the electrobinoculars to Pinkie and she looked through them. She saw the massive invasion of dragons heading in.

"Attack! Attack! Destroy the CIS!" the red dragon commanded.

Then 100 dragons flew down to the Droid Army while the rest of the thousands headed towards Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy's droid starfighters.

"Engage!" Rainbow commanded the droid fighters.

The Vulture Droids shot their wing laser cannons at the dragons as some of the dragons were falling down from the Vulture Droids' lasers. Fluttershy was very scared. Rainbow flew next to her.

"Fluttershy, what's wrong?!" Rainbow asked.

Fluttershy had her front hooves covering her eyes. "Remember, I'm scared of dragons!" she told Rainbow.

"Fluttershy! You were perfectly fine when we fought the red dragon 2 days ago!"

"Yes. Because that was a dragon I dealt with before!"

Then a Droid Tri-Fighter flew up to Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy and said: "Hey, want to get in my core?!"

Fluttershy looked at the Droid Tri-Fighter's core. "Hmm, okay," she responded.

Fluttershy flew towards the Droid Tri-Fighter and the droid starfighter opened his core. Fluttershy hopped in and saw the massive battle going on.

WHOA! she thought. She had never been inside a droid fighter before.


The 100 dragons landed on the ground to attack the heroes. Gunray shot with his gold E-5 Blaster rifle and killed some dragons.

"We need to have the droids protect the village!" Gunray warned. "If they reach Ponyville..."

"The ponies will all die!" Haako finished.

"I'm not letting that happen!" Twilight said.

"Don't worry!" OOM-9 told Twilight. "I'm getting in my AAT!"

OOM-9 walked over to his CIS AAT as Pinkie followed.

"Wait up, OOM-9!" she yelled.

The OOM Commander turned around and saw the cute little pony. "You can sit up in the top of the AAT with me. Okay?" he said.

Pinkie nodded her head as another B1 Battle Droid died. Twilight blasted the dragons with her magic. AATs fired their heavy laser cannons at the evil dragons as fire shot out of their mouth and burned the Hailfire-class droid tanks. The OG-9s tamed some of the dragons. Gunray shot the dragons that tried to attack Rarity.

"Thank you, Viceroy," she said.

"You're welcome!" he replied.

Pinkie and OOM-9 were on his AAT in the top hatch. A green and white dragon approached the Armored Assault Tank.

"Pinkie, fire at that dragon!" the OOM Commander commanded.

"Right away, OOM-9!" Pinkie said happily.

She manned the heroic AAT's heavy laser cannon and pointed it at the green and white dragon.

"Time to die!" the green and white dragon stated.

Pinkie looked at the cannon's controls.

"Take THIS!" she yelled.

Then she fired the AAT's heavy laser cannon and killed the dragon.

"Very good, Pinkie. Um...how did you learn to control the laser cannon?" OOM-9 asked.

"I have a party cannon that I use! So I'm used to commanding cannons!" she replied.


In the air, the droid fighters were still engaging the dragons. A Vulture Droid focused on a dragon with his chin laser cannons.

"Oh NO! I've got a fighter on me!" yelled the dragon.

The Vulture Droid fired his chin laser cannons at the dragon and he fell out of the sky. Rainbow Dash flew with a squadron of Hyena-class bombers. Fluttershy was still inside the Droid Tri-Fighter.

"Okay, Droid Tri-Fighter, we need to focus on the dragons before they attack the Profiteer!"

The Droid Tri-Fighter followed Fluttershy's orders and started engaging the forces.


Inside the Bridge of the Profiteer, TA-1313 was talking to Emir Wat Tambor of the Techno Union and Archduke Poggle the Lesser of the Geonosian Industries on a hologram.

"We shall provide you with the necessary means of protecting Equestria," Tambor told TA-1313 before twisting his knobs.

"<>" Poggle asked.

"I don't know. The Viceroy wouldn't want to waste his credits," TA-1313 responded.

"Yes. Gunray does want his money like we all do," Tambor commented. "I think I should send you J-1 semi autonomous proton cannons of the Techno Union to aid your attack against the dragons."

TA-1313 looked confused. "What are J-1 semi autonomous proton cannons?" he asked.

Tambor looked at Poggle. "<>," Poggle told the blue and white T-series tactical droid.

Tambor looked at Poggle as if the Archduke was out of his mind.

"Poggle the Lesser! Are you out of your mind?! The Defoliator Deployment Tank would destroy the entire village including the pony allies," Tambor protested before twisting his knobs again.

Poggle knew the Emir was right. "<>"

Emir Tambor looked at Poggle. "Yes. The Techno Union Tri-Droids will be there to help you. We'll send them now!" he said.

"By your command," TA-1313 responded.

Then the Tambor and Poggle hologram went off. TA-1313 faced an OOM Pilot Droid.

"Tell OWO-1 to contact the Viceroy!" the tactical droid commanded.

"Roger, roger," the OOM Droid responded.


Several B1 Battle Droids died. Applejack ran to 2 of the dragons with 5 B2 Super Battle Droids and 1 B2-HA series super battle droid.

"Come on, y'all! Take out those dragons!" she commanded.

"Yes, Applejack!" a B2 Super Battle Droid responded to the command.

The B2-HA faced his rocket launcher arm at the first dragon's head. He then fired a warhead and it hit the dragon's face, causing him to fall to the ground. Applejack and the 5 B2s jumped in the air and kicked the second dragon in the stomach, launching him backwards.

"OWWWW!" the dragon screamed.

Applejack and her B2s landed safely on the ground. The dragon then prepared to spit out fire.

"Uh-oh! Come on B2s! We got to get out of here!" she yelled.

The B2s ran but two of the droids got caught up in the fire and were burned to a crisp.

"Dang it!" Applejack yelled. "I lost two of my B2s! Those dragons will pay for this!"

Gunray was still shooting with his gold E-5 Blaster rifle as Rarity and Twilight guarded him.

"It seems every time we destroy one dragon, another appears!" Rarity told Gunray.

"Yes! We need heavier reinforcements!" he stated. "We already lost 90 B1s and we only have 9,318 B1s left!"

"Don't worry!" Twilight told Gunray. "I'll get the Hailfires to destroy them quickly!"

Twilight flew over to the Hailfire-class droid tanks. One of the Hailfires looked at Twilight.

"Hailfire Droids, we need you to use your missiles to destroy the dragons!" Twilight yelled.

The Hailfire Droids looked at each other and then looked back at Twilight. One of the Hailfire Droids was the leader of the droid tanks and said this: "Okay. We'll help you, Princess Twilight Sparkle!"

Twilight was very pleased to hear this. Then she led the Hailfires towards the battle.

"Alright, Hailfires! Do your stuff!" Twilight commanded.

The Hailfire-class droids lifted their missile launchers up and faced the dragons. Now there were 50 dragons on the ground since the other half died. The missiles fired and the black trails of smoke headed towards the dragons. The missiles killed some of the dragons as the Hailfires fired more. The red dragon saw his forces getting defeated.

"Send another 100 dragons!" the red dragon commanded.

Then 100 more dragons came from the sky and headed towards the ground.

"Here we go again!" Gunray yelled.


At Geonosis, Poggle and Tambor were inside the reconstructed Geonosis primary droid foundry talking to the reconstructed T-series tactical droid TX-21. TX-21 was standing with 2 Geonosian Guards as Tambor and Poggle walked over to him.

"The factory is operating at 50 percent production capacity. We have ten garrisons of new droids ready to deploy," TX-21 told Poggle and Tambor.

"<>" Poggle told his T-series droid.

"Yes! We need super tanks and proton cannons to help the Confederacy on Equestria," Tambor said before twisting his knobs.

"How many super tanks and proton cannons do you need?" TX-21 asked Poggle.

Poggle thought. Then he knew what he would do. "<>" he commanded.

"Geonosian proton cannons, or Techno Union?" the T-series asked again.

"Techno Union," Tambor quickly said. "We don't need Geonosian ones, since the proton cannons are not being sent to Geonosis."

"By your command," TX-21 acknowledged. He turned towards an OOM Commander Battle Droid. "Deploy the super tanks and proton cannons! Prepare them to board a landing craft!"

"Roger, roger!" the battle droid commanded, and both droids left to issue the orders to the rest of the droids.

Tambor faced Poggle. "My Octuptarra Magna Tri-Droids are already in the Hardcells!" he told the Geonosian Archduke.

"<>" Poggle stated.

"Yes. This isn't the first time we had to help him..."

Outside of the Geonosis primary droid foundry, the 12 super tanks and the 20 J-1s moved towards an empty C-9979 Landing Craft. 3 Hardcell-class interstellar transports were guarding the C-9979 full of Octuptarra Magna Tri-Droids. A Geonosis OOM Commander Battle Droid commanded the tanks and walker proton cannons.

"Alright, come on!" the OOM Commander commanded. "Get in the empty landing craft!"

The super tanks moved into the empty C-9979. Then 6 Platoon Attack Crafts came out of the Geonosis primary droid foundry carrying hundreds of flaks on the droid deployment racks. 40 B1 Battle Droid without E-5 Blaster rifles walked out as well to load the proton cannons. They all boarded the C-9979 Landing Craft and the landing started its engines as well as the Hardcell-class interstellar transports.

"Aid the Confederacy and ponies! Don't let them die in the hands of evil dragons!" the OOM Commander told the C-9979 and Hardcells as they took off into the sky.

They flew into space to the Blockade of Geonosis. The blockade had 2 Lucrehulk-class battleships, 2 Munificent-class star frigates, 1 Recusant-class light destroyer, and 1 Munificent-class Command Ship. The C-9979 and the Hardcells went into the Munificent-class Command Ship. The Command Ship went into hyperspace to Equestria to aid the heroes.


The battle in the air still waged on. Fluttershy, who was still in the Droid Tri-Fighter ,was having fun commanding the fighters from the inside.

"Droid Tri-Fighter, attack the dragons hurting Rainbow Dash!" she commanded.

The Droid Tri-Fighter flew towards Rainbow Dash, who was being chased by 3 dragons. The Droid Tri-Fighter went behind the 3 dragons.

"What other weapons do you have?" Fluttershy asked the Droid Tri-Fighter.

The Droid Tri-Fighter told Fluttershy this: "I have discord missiles."

"Hmm. Use them to destroy the dragons!" she commanded.

Then the Droid Tri-Fighter fired his 2 discord missiles and they headed towards the 3 dragons. One of the dragons saw the 2 discord missiles headed their way.

"Missiles incoming!" the dragon warned the others.

Rainbow Dash saw the missiles headed towards the dragons and saw Fluttershy in the Droid Tri-Fighter.

"YES!" Rainbow yelled. "Thanks, Fluttershy!"

Fluttershy felt a little proud, but still felt bad about Rainbow's teasing from before.


"Viceroy, OOM Commander OWO-1 is contacting you through a hologram!" Rarity told the Viceroy of the Trade Federation.

"Alright. I'll view it from the bunker. Cover me, Rarity!" Gunray asked Rarity.

"Right away!"

Gunray and Rarity ran over to the Separatist bunker by Ponyville. Rarity had never seen the Confederacy's bunker before. She saw that it was beige like a B1, had four legs, and had a B1 and an OOM Commander manning the center. Gunray climbed in as well as Rarity. The OOM Commander looked at Gunray and stood at attention.

"Sir, OWO-1 is contacting you through a hologram. Shall I prepare the hologram?" the OOM Commander asked.

"Yes!"

Then OWO-1 popped up on the hologram communicator.

"Yes, OWO-1?" Gunray asked the OOM Commander Battle Droid.

"Emir Wat Tambor and Archduke Poggle the Lesser told me they're sending reinforcements to aid the ground battle. They should be here soon."

"Good. The sooner, the better!" Rarity told OWO-1.

OWO-1 looked at Rarity.

"Who's this?" he asked the Viceroy.

"This is my friend, Rarity!" Gunray told the OOM Commander. "She is one of my personal guards."

"Hello." Rarity waved to the OOM Commander.

"Hi!" he responded back.

Gunray faced OWO-1 again.

"Thanks for telling us that our reinforcements should be here soon!" he thanked OWO-1.

"You're welcome." the battle droid responded.

Then the OWO-1 hologram turned off and Gunray faced Rarity.

"I'll stay here in the bunker!" Gunray told her.

"I'll stay with you!" she quickly said before hugging the Viceroy.

"Umm...okay?" Gunray replied, confused.

Why is she acting like this around me? he thought. Does she like me in the other way? Or maybe she's one of those chicks that just hugs everyone a lot? I dunno. But I better keep this away from Rarity. I talk to Twilight about after the battle.


Out of hyperspace, the Munificent-class Command Ship arrived and headed into Equestria. Inside the Bridge of the Munificent-class Command Ship, another OOM Commander commanded the Bridge.

"Launch the interstellar transports and the landing craft!" he commanded his Driver Battle Droid.

"Roger, roger!" the Driver Droid responded.

Then out of the Munificent-class Command Ship's hangar, the 3 Hardcell-class interstellar transports and the C-9979 Landing Craft launched and zoomed into Equestria. Rainbow Dash was still commanding droid fighters when she saw the massive C-9979.

"WHOA!" she yelled.

Fluttershy got out of the Droid Tri-Fighter's core and flew over to Rainbow Dash.

"That must be Separatist reinforcements!" Fluttershy told Rainbow.

The red dragon saw the C-9979 and the Hardcells.

"What the heck are those?!" he asked.

Then the C-9979 Landing Craft landed near the other C-9979s. The doors opened and the ramp came down. The 20 flak proton cannons walked out first. After all of the proton cannons were unloaded, the super tanks followed behind. After all of the super tanks were unloaded, the Platoon Attack Crafts came out. Pinkie saw the J-1 semi autonomous proton cannons.

"What kind of cannons are those?!" Pinkie asked OOM-9.

"They're J-1 semi autonomous proton cannons. Very powerful."

The OOM Commander looked at the spot where Pinkie was supposed to be and he saw that she wasn't there!

"WHAT?!" the OOM Commander yelled. "PINKIE! WHERE ARE YOU?!"

Pinkie was off of OOM-9's Armored Assault Tank and on the ground running towards the J-1s.

"OH-NO!" OOM-9 yelled before passing out.

Pinkie walked over to one of the J-1s. A B1 Battle Droid manned the massive proton cannon. She looked at the J-1. She saw it had 4 grey legs that held the 1 artillery piece that looked like a flak gun onboard Munificent-class star frigates and Providence-class carrier/destroyers. The B1 Droid looked over at Pinkie as the 40 B1 Battle Droids without E-5s walked out of the C-9979. 2 of the 40 B1s walked over and grabbed a flak from the PACs. Pinkie watched the 2 B1s load the flak into the J-1. After it was loaded, she watched the J-1 aim into the sky and fire at one of the dragons chasing a Vulture Droid. She thought the cannon was cool.

"WHOOOOAAAA! Can I try?!" she asked the B1.

The B1 thought. "Well since you are part of the Separatist Droid Army..." he started

Pinkie jumped on the J-1's side-seat and the B1 quickly got off the seat, terrified of Pinkie's behavior. The B1 looked at Pinkie. She looked at the control pad. She faced the proton cannon up in the sky. The 2 B1 Battle Droids loaded a flak in the J-1 and Pinkie fired the cannon at another dragon.

"Yes!" she yelled happily. "I love this proton cannon!"

The super tanks went over to the dragon army. They opened their 2 concealed twin warhead launchers and fired the warheads which destroyed most of the dragon army. Then the Hardcellsl anded and opened its ramp. Octuptarra Magna Tri-Droids came down from the ramp and fired their laser cannons at the dragons. The red dragon flew up into the air and shot fire balls at the super tanks. There was no damage to heroic tank. The red dragon was confused. Once he knew that the super tanks were indestructible, he ordered a full retreat.

"Retreat! Our firepower is no match for their new tanks!" the red dragon commanded.

All of the dragons on the ground took off into the sky and returned to their volcano. All of the dragons in the air turned around and left as well. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and droid fighters cheered that the dragons retreated.

"YES! WE WON!" Fluttershy yelled.

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy flew down to everyone else on the ground as the droid fighters returned to their proper hangars. OOM-9 got up from the top hatch.

"What...happened?" the OOM Commander asked himself.

Pinkie ran over to OOM-9's AAT.

"OOM-9?! Are you okay?!" Pinkie asked.

"Huh? Oh, Pinkie Pie! What happened?!"

"You passed out when I ran towards the proton cannon!" she told the OOM Commander.

"Oh yeah! That's why I fell!" he told Pinkie.

Gunray looked at Rarity.

"We did it, Viceroy!" Rarity hugged him again.

"Yes! We did do it!"

Everyone cheered for the CIS.
