The two fillies trot into their bedroom and sigh. Their mother had just scolded them for being much too rowdy and they were now sentenced to staying in their room.
The younger one, who was a dark shade of purple, flops onto her bed. "It's all your fault," she whines. "You were the one who threw the vase."
"But you were jumping on the couch," her older sister, who is white with a pink mane, replies curtly.
"You always blame me, Tia! It's not fair!"
"I do not! I just explain the truth!"
"That's tattling!"
"Is not!"
"Is too!"
"Is not!" Tia picks up her orange stuffed bird and throws it at her sister.
Luna ducks just in time and the bird flies right over her head. "Hey! You did that on purpose!"
Tia's response is sticking her tongue out.
Luna grabs her teddy bear and launches it. It hits Tia in the flank, causing her to shriek.
Tia flings a couple of her porcelain tea cups at Luna, who defends herself by holding up a pillow in front of her face. The dishes bounce off the cushion and hit the wall, shattering instantly.
"Those were my best dishes!" Tia screamed.
"You threw em!"
The two sisters stare at each other for a few moments, and finally Celestia says, "Prepare your weapons and meet back here in ten minutes. This is war."
They run off in their separate directions to gather weapons, the excitement of a battle lingering in the air.
The beautiful maiden Luna of Moonshire steps out of her castle home. The moonlight shines on her flowing mane and shimmering tiara, and her dress rustles in the wind. Her army gathers around her; a powerful group of animals scientifically generated by Luna herself to destroy the Enemy. They were small but powerful, with purple fur. Smart enough to outwit a draconequus and strong enough to defeat a manticore. She calls them TEDDY, which stands for Terrorizing Eco-Bot of Destruction, Death and Yarn.
Luna observes the terrain beyond her castle. It is a desert, scorching hot and a baron wasteland none of her subjects would dare go through. It is such a contrast to the beautiful mountains and glistening castle of Moonshire that it is hard to imagine that the two places are even in the same country.
Would her army dare brave the desert to defeat the Enemy?
"My subjects," Luna cries, raising her spear. "The time has come to cross the Horrible Desert and defeat the Enemy! The terrain is rough, but I believe that you can conquer not only this horrifying land, but the Enemy herself! Are you prepared for the hardships ahead?"
The army cries out enthusiastically.
"Forward, march!" Luna yells.
"For Luna the Beautiful!" her army bellows, and begins to march.
Across the Baron Land lies a kingdom ruled by the ravishing Princess Celestia, ruler of Suntopia. She brushes her beautiful hair out of her stunning eyes and watches her army gather together.
Her army consists of thousands of magnificent birds, appearing as if they were made out of fire. They were Pheonixes, the birds of power. In each bird's curved beak was a sharp spear, sharper than the teeth of Cerberus.
"Prepare the secret weapon!" Celestia orders.
The birds raise their spears and screech with delight. Half of the army hold up lighted torches, sparking and crackling.
"Tonight," Celestia announces to her army. "We will fight. We will destroy. And tonight," she paused. "We will be victorious!"
The army erupted into a chorus of excited screeches and caws. With Celestia herself leading, they take flight and begin to fly over the wasteland separating the two kingdoms.
Luna and her army of TEDDYs march over the wasteland towards the Enemy's camp, every soldier gripping a small gun. In the back of the crowd were two huge machines bigger than houses, being pushed by a hundred TEDDYs each. They were Luna's secret weapon, and guaranteed to destroy any army. But was the Enemy just as dangerous as the average army?
"Stop!" Luna cries. "Prepare your weapons!"
The bears stop to cock their guns and prepare the Secret Weapon.
"The Enemy approaches!" Luna points at the distance. A huge army of what seems to be birds is matching towards them, screeching and waving their weapons. Leading them is the Enemy herself, the horrifying, the ugly, Tyrant Celestia.
"They're disgusting," Luna says to herself. "Ready, my army!"
Celestia and her army march over the desert. Finally Celestia yells, "Halt! The Enemy has been spotted!"
The birds peer into the distance and see the faint figures of the army of the Enemy.
"They're bears, robot bears. The Enemy must think she can outwit us with her gypsy magic and knowledge of technology!"
Celestia waved her spear. "They are nothing, just a slight bump on the road to victory! Army, commence!"
The birds spread their wings and took off in the direction of the army.
The bears run, guns aimed at the birds' hearts. They are so close now, less than a quarter mile away.
"Remember your training! Remember your families! Remember your queen!"
The bears jump into the air at once, as if they are all one bear.
"Now, birds! For your country! For your queen! For yourselves!"
The birds almost create a sonic rainboom together, flying as fast ad they can down towards the Enemy.
The armies crash into each other and immediately began to destroy the other. Bears fire their guns until all of their bullets are gone, killing only a fraction of the opposing side.
"Keep going, my subjects! Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!"
Meanwhile, the birds are dive-bombing onto the bears, spears in beak.
They spears pierce their fur, and the bears cry out in agony.
The princesses watch their armies battle and cry out in fear. Are they being defeated?
"Bring out the secret weapon!" They yell at the same time.
The remaining bears start up the two machines and load them with huge boulders. They begin launching the huge rocks at the Enemy, crushing hundreds of birds at once.
The birds hold up their lighted torches and screech once more. They hurl the torches towards the Enemy, setting one of the catapult machines on fire.
The bears continue to fire rocks in the burning machine, sending flaming rocks across the desert, giving the birds what Luna called a taste of their own medicine.
The birds are being demolished quickly with half of their army dead and a quarter wounded. With only one fourth of the army remaining to fight, the birds hurl more smoldering torches, in hopes of somehow setting the enemy camp afire.
Three fifths of the bear army are wounded or dead, and one of their machines is reduced to ashes. They continue to launch boulders through their pain.
"For our princess!" the armies yell. "Through the hardships, through the pain!"
Celestia sees her suffering army. Rocks are falling down on them like rain, and the war appears to be a lost battle.
"No! We will not go down!" The princess of Suntopia grabs a spear, lights it on fire, and gallops towards the destructing army of the Enemy.
Luna cries out. Her army is smoldering and can barely continue to launch boulders.
"We will win! Whatever the cost, we will defeat the enemy and win the war!"
The princess of Moonshire holds up her sword and charges towards the enemy.
Lightning cracks. Thunder booms. The two warrior princesses charge, running closer and closer to each other.
Sweat drips down their brows. Their eyes meet, their eyebrows arch. This is it. The final battle between Princess Celestia of Suntopia and Princess Luna of Moonshire.
"Tia! Luna! Time for lunch!" Mommy calls up the stairs.
Luna puts down her teddy bears and looks up. Celestia throws her stuffed birds behind her shoulder.
"Lunch? Already?" Luna scratches her head.
"How long have we been playing?" Celestia asks.
Luna shrugs. "I dunno, but I'm really hungry." She gets up and runs down the stairs.
"I think we're having pizza!" Tia follows her sister with a smile on her face.
"Hey, wanna have another war after lunch?" Luna asks.
"You're on!"
The End
