100 years in the future, where Equestria is a parliamentary republic and cutie marks don't exist. There lived a mare by the name of Shortfuse Skydancer. She died, but woke to find that not all of her was gone from the world. Fearful of the Angel of Death, she attempts to flee from it. It's possible though that all she's done though is trade one frightening figure for one even worse.

Much, much worse.
