Dear diary,

It started around 10 years ago. Queen chrysalis was overthrown by her subordinates, and a new queen- "Queen Goldshard"- Was introduced to the throne. The changelings sent a official letter, halting hostile relations, and instead started to ignore equestria. We're not sure if this was bad or good, we just knew that the equestrians were relieved at the mail. After some time, We opened the boarders to tourists, under heavy supervision. This is when we started progressing scientifically, and eventually came up with the concept of assembly lines, which required large buildings. However, They produced large amounts of things, but they created pollution, which wasn't well-known at the time.

After some time, we started running low on resources in their territory. We warred with our nearing tribes/groups and eventually unified the changeling race. We thought that we dodged a bullet. Then we started researching into more efficient digging processes, and also started to find ways of digging deeper. We started mining like mayhem. The real trouble started when Goldshard allowed our subjects to open their own factories, which caused a industrial boom. Factories could only be built by the monarchy until then, and that plus some reforms (Min wage, Work hour, Ect) Caused our empire to become a forced to be reckoned with, if only for the fact we had now severe pollution problems, which drove our power down.

Despite Goldshard trying her best to stop air pollution, The eventual caught up to the empire, and the pollution started spreading across the planet. Acid rain formed, causing crops to drop significantly in their harvest rates. The acidity content rose in the soil, preventing new crops from being planted. Then the weather anomalies began to manifest. Despite being thought to be the Pegasus weather control system botching up, when it came out they were trying to reverse the issue, it was eventually found out pollution was increasing the suns heat. Celestia attempted to dim the sun to accommodate for this, but despite her hardest, she could not. This was only the beginning of the end, however.

Despite the fact Goldshard was the source of the problem- Having caused the industrialization, and eventually the catastrophic boom, She was not blamed, for the capitalists directly responsible for the boom were blamed. Despite the worlds nations attempt to ban them from building factories in their land, it was useless in the end, because their country of origin- The changeling empire, made them so powerful, they could just simply bypass these laws. Goldshard obviously did not support this, and tried to remove the captialists. However, the capitalists were too powerful to stop, and eventually, they built foreign factories, which significantly worsened the problem. The worse was still yet to come.

3 years after the boom (5 years from today), Several nations declared independence from the old empires- namely, Grandiose Colombia from Equestria, The new changeling republic from the changeling empire, And the Iroquois republic, From the badlands. While the changeling empire had several skirmishes with the NCR, it didn't escalate into anything. The iroquois republic had several wars of conquest with its neighboring nations, winning them all save for the battle of the gangres- which they eventually won in a second round anyways. Grandiose Colombia, However, Had a complex so strong, they thought that the old empires were all that was wrong with the worsening world.

3 years after the boom (2 years from today), Grandiose Colombia declared war on the equestrian empire. The NCR was dragged in due to a honorable alliance (They didn't want to fight, and they made that perfectly clear to the changeling empire, So they went easy on them), And iroquis joined the war on Colombia's side, because they were in a desperate resource shortage. The new, Industrialist, Capitalist empires of new waged a bloody war with the old empires, which lasted for 6 months, When the colombian capital was sieged by the changelings, The damage from mortars, artillery, and bombs was too much for the planet to handle. The ice caps finally broke, And the mass-flooding began.

Not to brag, but due to unfortuant circumstances, I was put in charge of the colombian initiative. Our first encouter around the badlands, We had to retreat from iroquois forces, The colombians met us in our rear. They had never seen our kind of warfare- Prong warfare- So They were easily beaten.

The aftermath of the flood proved how terribly damaged this planet was, and equestria banded together and made several, massive, space-ships. (Space-flight was achieved years earlier, when the NCR seceded from The changeling empire.) After 1.5 years, the new, massive, ships, constructed in orbit, were complete, and now equestria is departing from the planet, towards a new planet, which they refuse to share the cords with, saying that we need to find our own world. I don't blame them. We created this disaster, and we should pay for it. However, the NCR is helping us find the planet, and we're currently building our own starships in pursuit of equestria.

Bronzedust, Daughter of Goldshard, Queen of the changeling empire

As the planet sped away, Rarity looked on. There were massive black streaks, mostly from clouds saturated with pollution. The sun was dim, And Rarity could see the greyish-green surface, and the last remanding city- New Selenium- A dim collection of low-powered, green, lights. She could also see the factory groups, pumping out pollution in visible plumes from orbit. She remembers from the surface, The ocean was a dingy grey-blue color, The grass slowly turning gray or yellow, depending on where she was, With a grey sky. It was also pleasantly cool, but she knew that wouldn't last long, as the planet kept heating up. As the planet sped away, She pitied the inhabitants of New Selenium, And wondered... Could there be a way to bring them all to the new world, in the future?

People were flocking too the cold-sleep chambers, to survive the long journey to the star. The journey would take several million years to complete, So of course, If the inhabitants wanted to survive, They had to go into cold-sleep. The idea was to freeze the cells in your body, With a anti-freeze in your blood to allow you to survive, The result being able to live for almost billions of years, assuming you were in cold sleep for billions of years. To keep the ship running, 10-25 People would wake up from cold sleep for a year, Then they would enter into cold sleep, while another 10-25 would wake up, so on, so forth. The initial 10 crew would be, Rarity, Twilight, Fluttershy, Rainbow, Applejack, And pinkie pie, Along with 4 auxiliary ponies, Derpy, Zecora, Trixie, And Shining, Would complete the 10 required to fly the ship through the galaxy, and avoid obstacles.

Unfortunately, A programming error caused the cycle to shift every 2 years, resulting in the ship being unmared for 1 year in every cycle. This was okay in the short-term, Because the ship had automated point-defense systems, To defend against rouge asteroids. However, Because the program was locked in (Unable to edit the code) after launch to prevent sabotage, This would build-up overtime. The ship, during unmared cycles, Was initially okay, However, The colonists would eventually find them selfs over a world they were not trying to get to, at all...

Discord was in his house, sipping tea. It was still hot, but not burning hot. He would normally go with chocolate milk, But he decided it was best to mourn the equestrian homeworld. How unfortunate they destroyed it, He thought to himself. When his sub-conscious manifested itself, as one of those little devil-angel things you see in cartoons. The subconscious spoke "Well isn't today a nice day?"

Discord agreed. Saying, "While today is, Its another story on twilights homeworld. Did they ever name that place?" His subconscious spoke "While it dosn't matter anymore, Its completely and utterly destroyed. Thinking about it, You could probably take it over." Why, Indeed he could, But he needed to finish drinking his tea.

"Thinking about it, The equestrians will have no one to play with them selfs! Why, Thats terrible!". He thought about it for several seconds, Before speaking to himself, "Well, Unless i re-directed a fleeing species to the same planet their going to. That would be delightful for them." He thought. Before quietly speaking to himself, "Lets hope Rainbows ego doesn't get in the way." With a snap of a finger, A wormhole appeared in front of some ships.

Author's Note

Its happening people. ITS HAPPENING :D. To clarify, the NCR IS a socialist republic, but its chill, so it didn't actively overthrow governments.

Shameless POV change, Edited to fix. The story is told completely in bronzedust's perspective now.
