Smoke was rising at the winter village, and the Dark Empire slowly made their way towards it with their weapon of destruction, and their small army. Several ponies from the village lit up their horns, and guns and with the command, they opened fire on the troops as a couple artillery cannons began firing at the weapon. At the end of the cannon Rose was on talking with General Firefox, "Your orders are clear, raid the village, charge the cannon and then fire at will. That's it." Firefox ordered.

"Don't you worry my lord, the Crystal Empire will be nothing but ice after we are done."

"Very well, Ruby, don't fail me."

Ruby smiled as she ended the call and looked at the Lieutenant, "Can we charge the cannon while its moving?"

"Yes ma'am, it might slow us down with the addition of the artillery fire from the village."

"Do it."

"Yes ma'am. Power up the cannon, targeting laser by ten percent."
The heart began spinning and it fired a simple targeting beam several miles outside of the empire. Cadence and several guards saw the beam and she sighed, "Evacuate the town." Cadence said as she spread out her wings.

"Ma'am, what about you?"

She looked over at the guards, don't worry about me. Just get the citizens to safety."

Cadence flew up and she closed her eyes igniting her horn, beginning a transformation of her crystal form. She opened her eyes and she fired a blast of his magic up in the air and formed a magical dome around the Empire.

"Let's hope that this works."

"Cannon charging ma'am." The Lieutenant said with a smile.

Before Ruby can reply one soldier screamed, "Look out!" and she was blasted off of the cannon, as well as several soldiers who were killed in the blast. Ruby looked up and saw a bright light fly around them, and a golden colored stream of light came down killing more soldiers.

Out in the distance, Commander Firefly could see the light and realized that it was Sunny Glider. "Well?" Firefly began, "It looks like you became a decoy?"

Sunny chuckled as he went around, "Just something to give Nighthawk and Rainbow some extra time to get here."

Firefly shook his head, "Just don't get cocky."

Ruby was able to slowly get back up and lit up her horn levitating her scythe. One of the lieutenants ran over to see if she was ok. She lowered her hood and turned over to the lieutenant, "Get that cannon to its location, and i'm putting you in command."

The lieutenant grinned, "Where are you going?"

"I have an alicorn to kill." she said with a chuckle and flew off after Sunny.

Sunny turned over and saw the pony flying right at him, "Okay Commanders, you're clear to go."

Firefly nodded, "Well finally!" He turned to the soldiers who were manning the cannons, "Fire at will boys!"

Almost immediately, the cannons began firing at the enemy troops weakening their numbers. The lieutenant looked over and saw his troops falling like flies. He looked back at his corporal and screamed, "We're going to die like this!"

The corporal nodded, "Maybe a full cavalry strike could buy us some time!"

The Lieutenant nodded, "Very well!" He turned to the soldiers, "ALL OF YOU SISSIES DRAW YOUR WEAPONS AND KILL THEM ALL!"

All of the troops drew their weapons, or activated their guns and began galloping towards the village, screaming their noble battle cry, "For the Empire!"

The Commander of the village looked stunned as the enemy ponies, and unicorns charged at them, "I NEED ALL CANNONS, AND GUNNERS TO FIRE! NOW!!!"

The two cannons in the village began aiming at the ponies and firing along with the earth pony and pegasus shooters heating up their guns as they tried defeating the charge. The enemy got closer, one of the earth pony soldiers jumped over the border wall with its long sword ready to stab the nearest soldier when suddenly, a blast of light blue magic pushed back the soldier, the rest moved forward, but they stopped when they saw a pony who's wings was lit up and was jumping at them, the pegasus swung her wings killing several of the troops, and with one swipe, sent another blade of magic killing several of the soldiers. Rainbow Bliss turned over to the others behind the barrier and raised her visor and guard, "The Crystal Empire won't last long without loyal soldiers. So you all fight like all of Equestria is on the line. WHO'S WITH ME!?"

All of the soldiers looked at each other and drew their weapons, "Well boys, Lets take the fight to them." one of the soldiers screamed.

The Commander of the village drew his battle axe and turned to his troops, "You heard her boys! For Equestria!"

All of the troops drew their weapons and jumped over the border and the two armies began their Battle for Winter Village.
