Ponyville

Applejack woke up, after another one of her nightmares. The nightmares had started three years ago, after she found out her little sister, Applebloom and her two friends Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo had been posting secrets, about everypony, some truth some lies.

Applejack got out of bed, and looked to her left at a stand. There was a picture of her an Applebloom. She really missed her little sister. After the girls had been exposed, the girls had tried their best to pay up for it. They had posted the most embarrassing thing, about themselves, yet no one accepted their apology.

The Princesses had been furious towards the citizens of Ponyville. They had said, that the adults should of talked to them, accepted their apology, and try to move on. After a few minutes of an angry Princess Celestia and Luna, the citizens of Ponyville had started searching for them.

Applejack's eye's started to water, she regretted not listening to her little sister. Big Mac couldn't even look at either Applejack or Granny Smith, because of the shame of what he had told them.

Take you're little gossip column and just GO AWAY!!!!

those words, rang like bells for Applejack. She knew her brother just said it in a fit of anger. Big Mac tho felt incredibly guilty, his guilt refused to go away. Applejack saw how depressed he was, to put it into words he was a wreck. He didn't say 'eeyep' 'eenope' any more, he was speaking in full blown sentences.

At first ponies were shocked, but when they saw the depression In his eye's after his sister disappeared, they understood. Granny Smith was still after three years furious at them, for not talking to Applebloom as a responsible, older sibling. Applejack and Big Mac couldn't blame Granny Smith for still being angry, because they were still angry at themselves.

Applejack sighed, and walked out of her room, and passed by Applebloom's room. It hurt her, knowing that her sister might never return and sleep in that very room. She had nearly every single day, for the past three years done barely nothing, but cry.

She walked down stairs and saw Big Mac eating breakfast, not saying anything. Granny Smith had made pancakes that morning, and had given all three in the household a good meal to start the day.

In reality nothing good had happened in the last three years, other than a few leads that might have lead them to the CMC. Rarity after realising that Sweetie Belle was missing, had become an absolute wreck. She had sobbed for several weeks, months, but had pulled through, tho she wasn't as happy as she was when she is with Sweetie Belle.

Rainbow Dash was still completely depressed. She wasn't boasting about how great she was, how cool she was, how awesome she was. All of Applejack's friend's plus the citizens of Ponyville, were one day shocked when one mare asked her why she wasn't boasting like she usually did. Her response had been;

"Because I'm not, how can I say those thing's as if nothing has happened. Scootaloo is still out there Faust know's where, and I'm here feeling sorry for myself. I should be out there trying to find her and her friend's, but I'm not"

Needless to say, ponies actually started missing Rainbow's boasting and own self praising. Everypony tho, understood why she was the way she was. Scootaloo saw Rainbow Dash as a sister, and she treated them badly, because of some stupid anger and pride.

Applejack had finished eating her pancakes when she noticed Granny Smith looking at her, with malice in her eye's. Applejack gulped and took her plate and took it to the dishwasher. She still felt Granny's eye's at the back of her neck.

Applejack sighed, it could only mean one thing if she was starring at you like this.

"Is there something I can help you with Granny?" Applejack asked, while gulping. It was a long time since she looked at her like this, even after Applebloom ran away, Granny wouldn't stare at them or talk to them for half a year. But after those six month's she starred into their souls, but never this badly.

"Git tha work" Granny said, with almost (Almost) hatred.

Applejack immidiently, rushed out the door and went to work, the whole day would just consist of chores.

Deep within the Everfree Forest

In the everfree forest, waited three fillies within a cave for an perfect attack. These young fillies carried nothing but hatred, for the ponies who neglected them, shunned them, abused them and so much more.

These young fillies were none other than Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle. They had been thinking of doing something, towards the ponies that had kicked them out of their home, but, they will pay.

After three whole year's of planning, and recruiting, they were finally ready. They were ready to invade, and take over Ponyville. The CMC had created a new flag. The flag background, was completely in black. But the colour white was there to, wich was shaped as a pony holding a rifle, with, white text that said; The Cutie Mark Crusaders

they were hiding inside a cave, and inside this cave were several thousands, and thousands, of ponies and gryphons. They had heard their story and joind, mostly because they had used puppy-dog eye's on them, but also because they wanted to help them in their vengeance quest.

The ponies and gryphons stood in a hell march like station. All eye's were on their three leaders. Applebloom walked towards them and had her speech;

"Ponies and gryphons, it is such an honor to fight along side you in this quest. You have all heard the stories, about me and the two crusaders, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. We were after out cutie mark in journalism. We didn't get it but we had angry ponies everywhere when they found out it was us, they didn't even listen to us. No worries, no because tonight we will march towards Ponyville and we can then start our regime" Applebloom spoke.

After the speech everyone in the room cheered at the declaration.

Tonight they will regret everything they did to us

The coup 1

The CMC was looking at their army of ponies and gryphons. There were atleast, a thousand of them, here at this very cave, preparing to start a coup on Ponyville. They were going to strike tonight, No more waiting.

Applebloom looked at her two friend's, who nodded. It was the nod that showed that it was time to give the orders. Tonight was going to be violent, that no pony or gryphon could deny. Applebloom walked over the the small stage that was consistent of a stone like table thingy. She sighed and quieted down the talking ponies and gryphons, who immidiently took their hell march stance, and gazed on Applebloom.

"Now everypony and gryphon it is time to take our rightful place. Tonight Ponyville will be no more!!" Applebloom halfly shouted. "After tonight, Ponyville will be known as Bás" Applebloom declared.

The ponies and gryphons chanted. They didn't know why they renamed Ponyville to.....something so short? They anyway's still chanted away, happily obliging to what they say and do.

"Whit that being said and done, let's take what belongs to us!!!" Applebloom shouted in the end. She could still feel the pain and despair, her sister and everyone in Ponyville put her through.

Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle, walked out of the cave with their army behind them, walking in a hell march style, like the Hooviets. The continued to follow their leaders all the way to the end of the Everfree Forest. Luna's moon shined enough light for the crusaders, and their army to see everyone was either asleep, or up and reading before it was bed time.

Applebloom signaled to everyone to cover their faces, wich they did. Scootaloo whispered to Applebloom and Sweetie Belle, that maybe they should place explosive charges on some houses and force everyone to their knees.

"Well, no one dies in this story so why not?" Sweetie Belle said, without really caring about anything, other than her revenge.

"Okay but where? Should we place the explosives, like what building?" Applebloom asked, intrigued by the idea.

"How about Sugarcube corner?" Sweetie Belle suggested.

"Okay that's one, I'm thinking six explosions. Five more to go" Scootaloo said, with eagerness in her voice.

"The Golden Oak Library. I doubt Twilight still has that shield around it" Applebloom said, with a tiny bit of sorrow of that memory.

"Okay how about, mayor mare's house? Force some ponies to think she's dead?" Scootaloo suggested, she liked the idea herself, making the ponies think she's dead and by the time she show's that she's still alive, it would be to late.

"Wow, that's an amazing suggestion scoots" Applebloom said, really intrigued by her thinking. Giving the ponies no hope at all.

"Okay, what about you're family's farm?" Sweetie Belle suggest.

"I wish we could but we can't, we need the apples to survive. If we burnt the farm together with the trees, we would genocide both the civilians and ourselfs plus our army" Applebloom explained, she really wanted to burn up her family's farm but she didn't want to start a genocide.

"Okay what about Fluttershy's cottage? Animals can sense danger and would bring Fluttershy with them, even though I want to see blood spill" Scootaloo stated.

"Yes, that sounds like a plan. We can show that bucking bunny who is in charge" Sweetie Belle said, with malice in her voice.

"Okay, two more to go, what about Rainbow Dashes mansion?" Applebloom asked. "We can have a pegasus and gryphon to fly up there and place the device." Applebloom said, hatefully.

"Okay, that's five but what about the last one?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Well we could place that one in Diamond Tiaras mansion. Pay back for what she did to us" Applebloom said.

"Then it's settled, we explode those places and the ponies goes nuts, we force them to their knees and we start our regime" Scootaloo said, happy that they finally were finished discussing.

Applebloom turned around to their military, and told them that one pegasus and on gryphon shall come up to them. A few seconds later a gryphon with black feathers and lilac eye's stepped forward, towards them. He was interesting because he wasn't as violent as other gryphons, but if you peeved him of enough, you will feel pain like nothing before. He walked up to them and gave his salute, with a straight back and head high.
A blue pegasus filly with a black main and tail, with an open book with an sword with fire as her cutie mark marched up towards her leaders and also gave her salute.

"Ah, yes you are a good duo. We need you two, to take a couple of dynamite's and fly up towards Rainbow Dashes mansion. Place the dynamite's in the weak point's or what ever, as long as her mansion falls" Applebloom said, with absolute glee.

"YES MA'AM"the pony and gryphon said, in unison.

They walked back towards their demolition expert and requested, the dynamite's.

Sweetie Belle looked towards two ponies, talking with three gryphon's. She whistled and they looked up, she waved them over and they saluted them.

"You five are going to place explosives at certain locations, i'll give you names, because that's easier. Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, Mayor mare, Sugarcube corner, and finally Filthy Rich manor. You'll find the names about where they live in this scroll." Sweetie Belle said, while levitating a scroll towards them.

After they read the scroll, and discussed who was going to plant where, they looked up at their three leaders and nodded. They saluted one more time and went over to their demolition expert.

"This sure will be fun." Scootaloo said, with glee.

"I agree it will be interesting to see their reaction." Sweetie Belle said, while night-dreaming.

The pony and gryphon were flying up to Rainbow Dashes mansion. There was nothing wrong at all at this very night, in matter of fact the blue pony thought that they would be victorious. The gryphon had similar thought's.

After the saw the mansion coming into view, they started to quietly land. They looked at the huge mansion and started looking through different windows. They saw one window that lead into the kitchen. The gryphon quietly opened the window with force, wich almost turned into a loud disaster, because the window wasn't locked. They managed to keep it down enough as to not wake up Rainbow Dash.

The young pony flapped her wings and flew inside. She had an idea. She went towards the oven and opened it, she placed the bomb in it and closed the oven. She then turned on the oven and left it there. She looked around quickly, but saw nothing of interest, besides some picture of her and her friends and one with Scootaloo that was shredded into pieces, but was taped back together. The filly flew out the window and closed it. She nodded to her gryphon friend who nodded back, and they flew back towards their leaders.

A light green mare with a darker shade of green as her mane and tail, with a yellow flower as her cutie mark, was sneaking around Sugarcube corner. She had to be careful, her leaders had warned that the element of laughter Pinkie pie had a sense wich she could detect anything from someone new in town, to threats and so forth. She walked through an small ally way and looked for an back door. She found one and as expected it was locked. She tried the window and to her surprised it worked. She climbed through the window careful as to not wake anyone up. She walked towards the oven and opened it, being careful as to not make any noise and placed the bomb inside of it. She closed the oven and turnd it on.

She climbs out the window and closes the window. She walk's out through the ally way and start quietly sprinting towards her leader.

A grey gryphon with blue eye's, was watching Fluttershy's cottage. He sighed and flew towards the cottage. He landed softly on the ground, not making a peep. He tried the handle and the door opened. At first he was surprised, but then remembered that his leaders spoke of animals she took care of. He shrugged the thought and walked inside, he looked around the room, to see if there was anything that would make the explosion "fun" as he usually label stuff.

He looked at the sofa, and he formed an evil grin. He walked over to the sofa and lifted the pillow case, he placed the bomb there and places back the pillow casing back in order. He walks out the door, and flies towards his leaders.

Another gryphon that was light purpled feathered, with mint eye's and bandanad up. Was looking at the Golden Oak Library with neutral expression. She flew towards it and landed gently, on the ground. She tried the door knob first, but as expected it was locked. She looked at her claw and smiled a little. She used her claw nails as a key, and to her surprise it actually worked as if in a cartoon.

She quietly walked towards a book shelf and placed the bomb there and covered it with other books. She walked out the door forgetting about closing it, and flew towards her leaders.

A you colt had managed without any problems, sneak inside mayor mares house. He walked around and found her kitchen. He walked up to the oven quietly and opened it, he placed the bomb/dynamite's there. He then closed the oven and turned it on. He walked back towards the fire place and climbed out of it like Santa clause. When he was finally out of the house, he parkoured all the way towards his leaders.

A yellow gryphon was watching the Rich manor with glee. She loved it when big houses exploded. She saw a couple of guards that where there because of Diamond Tiara. Filthy Rich had ordered them to watch at all times, because Diamond Tiara had ran away but was caught and punished for her actions.

This wasn't going to bother the yellow gryphon much since she has her orders to take the dynamite/bomb to Riche's manor and sneak out before she gets caught.

She saw the kitchen window and saw a guard facing her from the opposite direction. She flew towards the window and carefully opened it. The guard turned just in time to see a claw smashing him across the jaw knocking him out.

The yellow gryphon saw the oven and walked silently over to it. She opened it, and placed the bomb inside of it and closed the oven, she turned on the oven and flew out of the window forgetting about closing it. She had finished her mission, all she needed to do was to was to get back to her leader.

Three minutes later the three gryphons and two ponies plus the pegasus, filly and her gryphon friend arrived at the same time and saluted their leader.

"Good, good, good, now all we need is the button to blow shit up" Scootaloo said, finally happy that something is happening.

"Oh don't worry about than mein fhürer" a germeneigh accent said.

Their demolition expert came up towards them with a smile on his face, he was a stallion that reminded pretty much any pony of doctor hooves.

"Here is the device" he said, friendly while showing the detonator to Applebloom.

Applebloom took the detonator and showed it to her friends then their military. Everyone nodded. Applebloom pressed the detonator button. Explosions could be heard throughout Ponyville, while the residents were screaming in fear.

Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle looked at all their carnage then they yelled "ATTACK" in unison. Tonight was the night were everyone were going to re-live their sin. It felt good to hear the screams in Appleblooms opinion. Scootaloo couldn't help but smile at the carnage before her. Sweetie Belle laughed maniacally.

Tonight they will pay for their sins

The coup 2

Twilight and Spike was in the Golden Oak Library, sleeping peacefully. Nothing seemed to be wrong, everything was normal. Twilight sprang out of bed when she heard six

BOOOOOOMS

the explosions was heard throughout Ponyville, the citizens were screaming out of fear, the fillies and colts that were younger than the CMC were crying.

No one seemed to know what was going on. Spike woke up fists ready, thinking that there was an intruder, until he opened his eye's fully. He ran up towards an window to check, what was going on. What he saw shocked him. There were houses on fire, because of the explosions, but the ponies were running around, completely baffled by what to do. Rainbow Dashes house, was completely on fire, having a few sparks here and there.

"Twilight," Spike nearly shouted, because of the adrenalin. "You gotta see this!!"

Twilight rushed up towards Spike and looked through the window. Her eye's started to fill with tears, she couldn't believe that something like THIS, was happening in the town she loves. 'Who would do something so sadistic, and cruel as this?' Twilight thought to herself.

"Come on Spike, we must find the girls, and stop whoever is doing this!" Twilight said, loudly enough so Spike could hear, through all the screaming.

"Right behind you," Spike said, with tears in his eye's. He couldn't believe that his home Ponyville was on fire. He had made many friend's, like Twistin, Pipsquek, Rumble, and more. He really hoped that they were okay.

Spike hopped on Twilight's back, who then Galoped through the library, and out to the street's of Ponyville. She ran around looking for her friend's, and found Rainbow Dash with tears, in her eye's. Her home was burning.

"Rainbow Dash, wha.....what happened?" Twilight asked, completely baffled and distraught.

"I.....I think.....there was......a.....bomb in my kitchen" Rainbow Dash said, completely depressed to see that her home was on fire.

"Come Rainbow, we need to find the others, and find out who's responsible for this." Twilight said, with determination in her voice.

Rainbow nodded, and flew over head with Twilight following her. Rainbow flew towards Fluttershy's cottage and burst through the window and searched frantically for the really shy mare, who was without a doubt, scared for her life.

A few seconds later Twilight burst through the front door. Twilight called out for Rainbow, who was checking upstairs for Fluttershy. Twilight started searching the main level, trying to find hiding spots.

Fluttershy's pet bunny, Angel hoped into the kitchen where Twilight was looking through cabinets, and what not, trying to find the shy mare.
Angel hoped up towards Twilight, and aimed for a good kick. Twilight felt something hit her flank, and looked to see Angel, trying to get her attention. Twilight eye's almost became starts seeing Angel.

"Angel, do you know where Fluttershy is!?!" Twilight said, a bit more loudly than what Angel was comfortable with.

Nonetheless, Angel nodded proudly, and made a signature to follow him. He lead her to the garden, were it was lit up by the fire's, of the houses from Ponyville. Angel looked around and then looked down at the grass and stomped repeatedly. After a few seconds they waited. A flash of yellow came from under the grass were Angel had stomped, and grabbed Angel so fast that Rainbow would quit her career.

Twilight at first jumped, startled by the extremely fast movements. Twilight calmed down a few seconds later, and knocked with her hoof at the grass place, where Angel stomped. A few seconds went by and nothing happened.

"Fluttershy it's me, Twilight" she said, wondering if the shy mare heard her.

A few seconds went by and nothing happened. Twilight was about to use her magic to open the hiding spot thingy, when suddenly a pair of eye's starred at her. It was Fluttershy's, but instead of her usual friendly looking eye's, she had a terrified look in her eye's.

"I'm sorry for intruding Fluttershy, but me and the girls really need you're help." Twilight said, not wanting to show fear herself.

Fluttershy continued to look with her eye's saying it all. Twilight knew how scared Fluttershy was, and couldn't blame her. Twilight was also scared, but for some weird reason, she felt as tho this was..........personal. Twilight shaked that thought out of her head, no way was this anything personal except for their home burning.

Spike who had, out of the blue decide to show up, walked up towards Twilight and smacked her flank. Twilight EEPT and looked around, until her eye's landed on a very angry Spike. Twilight froze and realized that she had accidentally left Spike at Rainbow's burning home.

When Spike was about to speak, they heard several gunshot's being fired. Spike, Twilight, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash (who was still searching the house) froze in fear. Ponies started running even faster than before trying to get away from whoever was doing all of this.

Gryphons and ponies, of The Cutie Mark Crusaders had now started their coup. They used their rifle's to keep them quiet. But even the gryphons knew that no one dies in this story.

Six gryphons who was wearing, bandanas and in The Cutie Mark Crusaders military uniform, flew towards Flyttershy's cottage. One of them looked pale and stopped.

"What are you doing?!" One of them shouted, "we have a mission to accomplish"

"I placed a bomb in her cottage," The gryphon said, with worry "I guess that because of the other explosions, that I didn't really pay attention."

The others also grew pale. 'Was there something wrong with the bomb? They really didn't know.

"Come one let's just get this, Shy and whoever who's also there. And then we'll inform our leaders." Another gryphon said.

They nodded and continued on their way. They saw a rainbow haired pony talking to who they understood to be Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle and Spike. They landed behind them startling, them in the process. The rainbow haired pony, immidiently looked behind them and growled. The other looked and almost fainted in seeing them.

"You come with us, or we'll use force." A gryphon said, with boredom in his voice.

"No! Never! What are you doing here you chickens?!" The rainbow haired girl said, mockingly.

A gryphon who held his rifle aimed quickly and shot her wing. She cried out in pain. Twilight stood there completely shocked, at what this gryphon just did.

"Stop, stop we'll do what ever you say, just don't hurt my friend's" Twilight said, begging.

The gryphon took a hold of the three mares, and Spike, and flew away still dumbfounded by why explosion didn't explode. They flew to the central of Ponyville where every pony that lived in Ponyville was present. The gryphons dropped down the mares, and Spike and waited for their leaders to show up.

They will be shocked to see who it is who did this

The new parliament

It's been over a week since, The Cutie Mark Crusaders had their coup. The ponies of Ponyville or Bás as their "new" town or city was now called, were still shocked that the once, three happy fillies, had turned into three tyrants. They didn't know whether, if the princesses knew or not. Bás had become into a huge city within just a week. The element bearers lost their elements, after a pony soldier shot them in front of their eye's, wich lead to the elements cracking. Some ponies were forced into working with construction work, wich lead into Bás becoming more of a city than a small town. The Cutie Mark Crusader soldiers had built a giant wall wich covers, the whole town but also the whole Everfree Forest. The citizens of Cloudsdale went to investigate what was going on, but was shocked when they found out, that there was a magic shield wich protected the whole city, and forest that were inside those walls. No one could enter without the soldiers, or the CMC knowing. In the city of Bás were giant towers of businesses owned, by their new found government. There were propaganda, everywhere in the city, indicating that they were trying to brainwash the young ones. The older ones would be impossible to convince, but they wouldn't dare do or say anything.

There was two labour camps for those who tried to reason with the three fillies, but was immidiently thrown into these camps. The soldiers patrolled the streets, of Bás in making sure there was no, mischief. The Cutie Mark Crusaders military got bits from the ponies who paid their rent. Most of those bits went either to Applebloom, Sweetie Belle or Scootaloo, and then later they paid their military. The different new's paper wires was heavily influenced by the new regime. The ponies sometimes cried, asking themselves, 'why did we show hatred, towards them?' 'If we just listened to the princesses, accepted the apology. Then this wouldn't have happened'

Everypony was praying for the princesses, that they would be rescued, but because of the propaganda they read it made them think, than maybe not even the princesses knew how to save them.

Sweetie Belle found out about the bomb that didn't explode at Fluttershy's. But she questioned how it came that she heard six. As I turned out, their demolition expert knew that something was wrong with it, and had another gryphon soldier, deliver a bomb some place else.

There was never any sunshine for the ponies of Bás anymore, everything was in black and despair. Spike was now a literal slave, forced to build buildings needed. He had recently built finished the parliament for the new regime.

Applejack had been put back on the farm, and was only allowed to rest when Luna's moon shined the night. Applejack was still understandably upset, she understood why those three did it, but she didn't think they would go as far as tho shoot ponies. She was still shaken after Granny was shot in the leg.

Rainbow Dash was still flying around, but alway's had tears in her eye's. When she found out that Scootaloo was behind the coup, with her friend's, she could feel nothing but sorrow. She was upset at the fact that they blew up their home, but couldn't help but feel like they deserved it, especially her for dumping rain water on them.

Rarity didn't know what to feel. Her sister was one of the culprits, but she couldn't help but feel, angry for what they have done to Ponyville or Bás as they had said, they renamed. Hopefully the princesses was aware of the situation.

Canterlot Throne Room

Princess Celestia was sitting on her throne filled with worry. She had gotten a letter from Mayor mare, stating that some sort of explosion had happened. Celestia didn't know what was going on, but she intended to find out.

Princess Luna seemed to know what was going on without telling her sister. She had gone into Applebloom's dream, and saw how they committed their coup. She also witnessed how all the ponies of Ponyville were now pretty much used as slaves. Luna understood the anger they felt towards the ones who shunned them, abused them, neglected them, and so much more. Perhaps this was the reason she didn't want to tell her sister what was going on, because she had been in their hooves.

Luna had walked into pipsquek's dream, who told her about the coup, the new parliament, their rulers, the military. Anything that was useful to help those three from the evil path. Pipsquek had said,that he lived in a bit richer life style because, he was one of the few who didn't treat them badly.

Diamond Tiara had been put into a labour camp, almost immidiently. Her father Filthy Rich didn't even try to stop them, he was actually still after three years, still angry at his daughter. He still lived richly, although the new regime owned now every business, in the city.

Miss Cheerilee's school was turned into a military school. The school was teaching about how great their leaders were, and how they were fearless, and how their military was the strongest in the whole universe. Many students still went to school because they actually wanted a education.

Zecora had also been one of those ponies....or zebra in this case that had slammed the door in front of their faces. She was now working as a medic for The Cutie Mark Crusaders military. She didn't have a choice in the matter. Fluttershy was also forced to join the medics. Zecora was happy that she atleast had one friend in her work place.

Applebloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo had renamed, the summer sun celebration to The Cutie Mark Crusaders Day Because the day they invaded, was the exact date as in the summer sun celebration.

Snips and snails, had joined The Cutie Mark Crusaders military, because they didn't know what to do in their spare time, and because that they always wanted to join the Luna Night forces.

Luna looked into the direction of Ponyville. She had sympathy for them, she really did understand why they did it, and she just couldn't blame them

Karma always finds it's way to you no matter what

The Bás Hell March Parade

It has been over a month, since The Cutie Mark Crusaders took over Bás, and to celebrate, they decided inside their parliament, to have an Hell March. Their soldiers seemed to like the idea. Their soldiers had worked a whole lot trying to make it look perfect, their soldiers were going to be divided into four sections. Pegasi for themselves, same goes for the unicorns, and earth ponies, and the gryphons obviously for themselves. A section of twenty ponies that were going to march in a scare were given The Cutie Mark Crusaders flags. The wonderbolts, had tried many times to get inside Ponyville, but because of the spell, it was impossible. Spitfire had even written a letter to Rainbow Dash, and Mayor mare, to see what was going on, but they never seem to respond. Spitfire eventually had to accept that she wasn't going to get a response.

The Apple Family that lived outside of Ponyville were worried, because they hadn't heard anything from Granny Smith, Applejack, or even Big Mac. They were shocked one day tho when babs seed had contacted the others claiming that she had gotten a letter from Applebloom. In the letter it said;

Dear Babs seed
Yes, I a'm still alive. Everything is okay here in Ponyville, sorry that the others haven't responded they are just super busy at the farm. I hope everything is okay with you and the others of course. I hope ya the best future.

You're cousin Applebloom

Babs seed had read on the new's papers that there had been some sort of coup, that had happened a month ago, she didn't know if she believed that Applebloom did it together with her friend's, and military? Babs was still shocked to even believe that her cousin was capable of something like that.

Inside Bás, they were decorating the streets and hanging up flags, to celebrate The Cutie Mark Crusaders victory.

In forty five minutes, there was going to be heavy stomping of hooves and claws. The citizens of Bás were still shocked, after what happened. They felt angry for driving them away, but they couldn't help but feel angry towards them for destroying their home, and then treat them like garbage. Filthy Rich, wasn't angry at all at those three girls, in matter of fact he became some type of sympathiser, but he was still loyal to the princesses, wich the CMC respected. The citizens readied themselves for the parade, they were a little bit happy that something was happening.

Then the parade started, the you fillies and colts were happy, they even clapped in excitement. The cake twins were still to young to understand, what had happened, and because of the propaganda everywhere, they were pretty much brainwashed. The ponies and gryphons of the military marched through their glorious city with pride. The CMC were waving at their citizens and their military.

The main six and Zecora were together watching the He'll March Parade. Rainbow Dash still found it hard to believe, that the CMC especially Scootaloo had made this whole army. Twilight was the one who had been forced to cast the protection shield around their beloved, city or country. Pinkie Pie had gotten a letter from Sweetie Belle a few weeks prior, saying that she would like her decorate their beloved country for their parade, and Pinkie obliged, because she didn't really have a say in the matter.

Fluttershy still worked as a medic together with Zecora, Fluttershy actually didn't mind, working for the new regime, but like Filthy Rich, she was still loyal to the princesses. Zecora had actually felt really guilty, so guilty that she had completely quit rhyming, in her sentences. Rarity still does clothing, mostly for their soldiers and sometimes, their leaders. Applejack worked on the farm like usual, but a few weeks prior. Applebloom had showed up on the farm and talked to Granny Smith, she had apologised that she had been shot. Granny didn't care at all tho that she had been shot, she was just happy that Applebloom was back, but Applebloom told her that they lived in their parliament.

Spike was always hanging with his friend's these day's. Spike had considered joining their military, but wasn't sure if he wanted to. Spike was still working with construction work, that paid relatively well. Spike was tho worried about the girls, even tho he knew that Zecora and Fluttershy seemed to enjoy the new regime, he still knew that all the girls simply wanted to apologise and make amends. The same couldn't be said, for the CMC tho who keept arresting ponies for trying to make amends with them.

After the parade finished, the citizens chanted with as much pride as they could, chanted how strong The Cutie Mark Crusaders military were, and how they were completely undefeated.

After the parade was over and everyone was finished chanting. They continued with their lives. Spike, Rumble, Pipsquek, and Twistin walked into Sugarcube corner and ordered milkshakes. They took their seats in an empty booth in the corner and started discussing.

"Okay, I don't know about you guy's, but I think I'm joining their military." Rumble said, almost sounding defeated.

"Same here, I need a job that has a meaning not just building several structured buildings, for what feels like no apparent reason." Spike said, with a little bit of anger.

"Look, I agree with you guy's, but what if we go to war against the princesses? Surely the now by NOW that something's up." Twistin said, with a little bit of fear in his voice.

"You shouldn't, worry to much about it. But like you guy's, I will also join the military." Pipsquek said, making up his mind on the spot.

Everyone of them nodded and finished their milkshakes. They then headed to a recruitment place, that was filled on the inside with propaganda. They walked up to the stallion who sat behind the desk who happened to be Button Mash. He gave them four pieces of paper, and had them sign the papers, and told them with in the week they'd have their response.

Canterlot castle - Luna's room

Luna was still sleeping in her room, dreaming about when she became nightmare moon. She shivered, of the memories she had of when being her. She understood the vengeance tho, nightmare moon was complimenting Luna for not telling her sister.

"A very wise, choice indeed. They will be very happy." Nightmare moon said, with actual joy in her voice.

"Oh shut up, I'm only doing it for a little while, then I'm telling my sister." Luna said, having enough of her evil sides compliments.

Nightmare moon smirked and said, "keep telling you'reself that"

The Cutie Mark Crusaders, will sadly one day, month, year fall and then what will happen?

Meetings

Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, And Scootaloo were sitting in their, parliament/home in the meeting room. They were discussing about having some affairs with cloudsdale, wich sounded like a great idea, but the CMC wanted nothing to do with the other pony civilizations. Princess Celestia had tried to contact them, but it feel into blind eye's. Their demolition expert was inside the meeting room, sitting on a office chair. There was a pegasus commander who would remind ponies of spitfire, because of the sternness in the mares voice. The pegasus had pink fur, and light blue mane and tail. The pegasus commanders name was Fly High, and as the name suggests, she is an expert in flight attack's. Then there was an unicorn stallion with red fur, and blue mane and tail, his name was Hoof Flag. He was the one who actually, made The Cutie Mark Crusaders flag. He is also the master of all attacks spell, therefore he became the commander of the unicorns.
Then there was the earth pony, with purple fur, and dark blue mane and tail. His name was Bow Fight. He became the commander of the earth ponies, naturally. Then there was a gryphon with black feathers, with eye's that tortured you're soul, just by looking at them, her name was Screech Fire. Everyone in the room had the eye's on the CMC, who had called them and told them that they would have this meeting.

"Okay, now I know you want to know why you are all here" Applebloom said, looking at all of the heads in the room who nodded. "Well, today we have received a letter from a pony who would like to enter, our beloved country. The thing is tho, she is known as 'The Great And Powerful Trixie' and I think most of us in this room know who she is." Applebloom looked around the room again, and saw a few surprised eye's by the mention of Trixie. "You see, she isn't really a danger, but she IS powerful." Applebloom sighed and looked up to the five listeners.

"We want you to open the gate, specifically, for her and only her. We want you to also explain the laws and rules for her, so she doesn't get......arrested." Sweetie Belle ended with an devilish grin.

The commanders nodded in understanding, tho in their heads they were shuddering in fear.

"Good, now we will be expecting her in two day's, so prepare for her arrival." Scootaloo said, a bit demandingly.

The commanders and demolition expert nodded, and took their leave. It wasn't at all easy, ruling a country/city. Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, And Scootaloo now knew, how tough it must be for the princesses. There were nobles in Bás, but they weren't as demanding as the nobles in Canterlot. The nobles who wanted the CMC gone, had been put into labour camps.

The CMC left the room, and walked to their own "private" room, where they could discuss, or just hang around.

The room, looked like it came from royalty. The walls were decorated in gold, while the furniture were fancier, than normal furniture. The ceiling had a crystal ball, that was their lamp. The CMC went over to their gold sofa, and started discussing things the country would need, or needed.

Canterlot castle

Princess Luna and Celestia were in the meeting room, waiting for their soldiers to arrive, and also for some odd reason Neighsay. Celestia had gotten a letter saying that Neighsay was going to come to the meeting, and help with strategies. Celestia knew tho, that Neighsay had deep hatred for creatures who weren't a pony. Luna was very worried because this ment that either he knew about the coup, or he had seen gryphons flying in Ponyville.

After waiting for around thirty minutes, the commanders from the solar guard, and night guard came together with some soldiers, and a very pale looking Neighsay. Luna couldn't help but laugh inside her head, she had never liked that stallion.

When everyone was seated, Celestia then spoke up without using her Canterlot voice.

"Soldiers, commanders, and Neighsay." Celestia nodded towards them. "As you all know something has happened to Ponyville. What has happened was a coup that happened last month." There were a few gasps and a few ponies were stunned. "We believe, we might know the culprits who committed this. We believe that three fillies from three years ago, has come back for vengeance." Celestia said, with sorrow in her voice.

The commanders, soldiers and Neighsay, burst out laughing. Celestia actually expected this reaction, so she just sat and looked at them. When they stopped laughing, they looked at Celestia with wide eye's.

"Princess......you, you can't be serious." One of her commanders said, with surprise.

"You said, the same thing when I said, that Luna was nightmare moon and that she was my sister." Celestia said, with a hint of anger.

The meeting room went quiet after that, she did have a point, although in the end they had to admit that Luna was nightmare moon and that she was Celestias sister, so why couldn't they just accept that three fillies had committed a coup? Maybe because they felt embarrassed?

Luna felt her body become ice. Had her sister figured it out? How? Or was it obvious for her? It was clear as crystals for Luna, so why wouldn't it be for her sister?

"Sister how did you come to the conclusion, that miss Applebloom, Sweetie Belle And Scootaloo, are the culprits?" Luna asked, hoping to get the answer out of her sister.

"It was actually quite simple, everypony in Ponyville ignored them, abused them, neglected them, shunned them, and so much more. So I came to the conclusion that they most likely did it for vengeance." Celestia said, almost as if that was the world's most obvious thing.

Luna felt relaxed hearing that. She was luckily not a suspect in this scenario.

"I have had reports saying, that there are gryphons in Ponyville, in some sort of military uniform." Neighsay said, with disgust in his voice. He really hated none-pony creatures.

"Who, most likely work for the CMC." Celestia said, with a smirk.

Neighsay froze at that, he couldn't deny that, that could't be the case. But how could they get so many gryphons? They couldn't just have joined their army just like that. They must have some sort of training and more.

"So, let's discuss about the coup shall we?" Celestia said, in a tired voice.

The war will soon begin, and then there will be blood spill.

Trixie Lulamoon

Trixie for the past year, has done nothing but travel, and be on her built stage, making fillies and colts and even adults smile at her magic. She was traveling back to Ponyville, because she wanted to have another go there, but also to make amends with Twilight Sparkle. Recently tho, she has read the new's paper, that there had been some sort of coup/invasion. There wasn't much information, except for that it might of been three fillies.

Trixie laughed at that mere thought. 'How can three fillies, take over Ponyville and a week or month later the Princesses notice it?' 'Trixie thinks it's stupid.' Trixie thought, to herself.

Trixie had sent a letter tho, to The Cutie Mark Crusaders Parliament, about entering Ponyville. To her surprise it had been granted on one condition, that she spoke about Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle about how great leaders they were. To say Trixie was shocked, was an understatement. She looked as tho, someone told her an apocalypse was happening within sixty seconds. Trixie agreed to the terms and sent it back in a letter. She was walking towards Ponyville on a lonely dirt road.

She had gotten some papers that showed something she has never needed in any pony city or nation, a visa. But in her mind she wasn't surprised, if it was true that Ponyville was now a dictatorship, it only made sense that you then needed some sort of 'approval' from their new regime.

She had been advised in the paper when she got her visa, that she came at night. She didn't know why that was needed but she didn't wanna be already on their bad side. She kept walking on dirt road that eventually, lead her to the Everfree Forest. She shivered because of the mere thoughts about the wild beasts.

She parked her caravan, outside of the Everfree Forest. The sun was high in the sky, but she needed her rest. In her letter it had said, that they would open a gate at three a'm for her, and she could then park her caravan at a 'Mettal wagon car park?' Trixie had no idea what that was but let it slide. She walked inside her caravan and plummeted to her bed falling asleep.

In the middle of the night she awoke, after a good sleep. She checked her clock that read, 1:56. Trixie sighed and opened up her eye's, to clear her eye's. She decided to have a night snack, so she went to her little kitchen. She checked her small sized, fridge wich contained two small bottles of milk, an apple pie, and some apples. She took the Apple pie and lavitated one of the milk bottles and drank, and ate.

After two hours of reading and checking her surroundings, she started making her way towards Ponyville. It wasn't hard in spotting it, because there was a huge wall surrounding it. She kept looking a head of her and at the wall. When she reached the wall, she saw a mettal door. Trixie didn't really know what to do other than to take out her visa paper, and ID. She used her hoof to knock at the door, after about a good minute of waiting, she was about to knock when suddenly she was met with an gryphon, who looked bored.

"Are you by any means, Trixie Lulamoon?" The gryphon asked, already getting on point.

"Yes." Trixie answered, a bit unnerved about his calmness.

"Okay, identification?" The gryphon said, stretching out his claw

Trixie handed the gryphon her ID and visa. The gryphon took both and read absolutely everything, to make sure this wasn't some imposter.

The gryphon gave both her ID and visa back, and motioned her to follow him. Trixie did so and was shocked by what she saw. By the end of the small tunnel, she saw Ponyville so advanced, and was more city like than a small little town. Before she could enter tho, she was told by the gryphon that Ponyville's new name was Bás, and he also explained all the new laws and rules. When he was done he motioned for her to walk away into the city.

Trixie walked into a 'mettal wagon car park' and parked her caravan in one of the two white lines. She decided to sleep again, by using a sleeping potion.

The next day, Trixie spent walking around the city trying to find Twilight or her friend's, but they where nowhere to be seen. She decided that they were at work and decided to explore 'Bás'.

Everything seemed the same but looked super advanced. Mettal wagons weren't pulled, to Trixie's shock. She saw a stallion 'driving' it instead. Trixie couldn't believe her eye's how advanced everything was. Trixie went to a book store were she searched for books about the founding of 'Bás'. Trixie searched for atleast an hour and found nothing, but there were a lot of books about their 'great leader's'. Trixie didn't question it at all.

Trixie was walking down to sugar cube corner when she saw an green stallion with dark green mane and tail, with a lollipop as his cutie mark, getting beat up by their 'Police?' Trixie didn't know what was going on but she rushed to the scene.

"I'm telling you officer, I didn't kidnap anypony." The green stallion said, his muzzle bleeding after a beating.

"Hey!, what is going on?" Trixie shouted as she got to the scene. She almost stopped dead In her tracks when she saw a pistol in the officers holster. She had seen those things used by some criminals in Manehattan. The Princesses didn't even know about these weapons existence.

"Nothing that concerns you, but if you hafto know. This stallion kidnapped a foal." The officer said, sounding irritated.

"Well do you have any proof?" Trixie asked, a bit confused by the situation.

"Take a walk." The officer said, scaring Trixie a bit because of the demand in his voice.

Trixie walked away, still hearing the stallion scream that he didn't kidnap anypony. Trixie felt useless, but she had come to realise that this wasn't the Ponyville she knew, and that there were new laws and rules for a reason.

The war is approaching fast, and we will not stop it. Canterlot will fall.

The weapon

The CMC were underground, in their research lab. There were a lot of weapons on testing to see their capacity. Scootaloo absolutely adored this place, because it was here were the dangerous stuff was. Sweetie Belle did enjoy looking at the weapons, but alway's had a feeling that something wasn't right. Applebloom also had a feeling that something wasn't right, she had tho kind of, reconciled with her Granny.

Granny herself was happy that Applebloom was back, but was now scared of her because of her military and for what she had forced Applejack to do, especially since Big Mac is family and blood related. Granny didn't know what to feel about the new regime either. It was good because she became richer but also didn't like it because a lot of ponies suffered because of the regime.

Scootaloo was looking at their weapon that was going to take down Canterlot. It was soon finished, to destroy everything the snobbish ponies has ever known. Plus the princesses.........

Sweetie Belle couldn't wait to see her sister's face along with her friend's, seeing devastation in their eye's because they didn't know if their beloved princess was dead. 'Wait dead? Oh right they don't know no one dies in this story'. It was going to be fun.

Applebloom looked at the large weapon, that had black tint and a seat for the one who was going to use it. She didn't know who was gonna use it, but she couldn't wait to see that pony. She keept looking at the weapon, and kept getting memories from the year they ran away. Applebloom shaked hear head as to make the memories go away. Go Away!!!. Those were the exact words her brother Big Mac had told her. She hated those words sooo much. And then she did what they wanted her and her friend's to do, they ran away.

Applebloom called for her friend's and they left the lab room to go up and prepare for their speech. It was going to be tough, that couldn't be denied. Trixie Lulamoon was also here, wich greatly surprised her, but she shrugged it of.

Applebloom walked down with her friend's to their little office that their Slaves had built.

The room looked like an normal office, but with the exception of The Cutie Mark Crusaders flag. Applebloom walked behind the desk and sat down, as did her friend's.

"Looks like, the weapons almost ready. It just need's to be finished and then we'll take down Canterlot. "Applebloom said, with an devilish grin on her face.

"True but we still need to be careful, one wrong screw and the weapon doesn't work, and if we are unlucky the princesses will see it and then were doomed." Scootaloo said, deep in thought.

Yes, I agree we need to play are cards right." Sweetie Belle said, with an smirk.

Applebloom nodded towards them. They really did need to be careful about this. One wrong move and they lose all their power and they had almost ruled for two months!

Scootaloo looked out the window to see their civilians, on and about trying to not look terrified. Lyra and Bon Bon were patrolling the streets of Bás, they had actually joined their police force. Scootaloo knew that Zecora worked with Fluttershy in the medic wing of the military. Spike and his friend's had joined their military, wich was interesting. Twilight worked with holding the shield up, together with an monitor that helps the spell castor. Rainbow Dash was again put into a labour camp. Pinkie pie threw parties if it was okay by their regime. Rarity still worked for the CMC in making their military uniform. Applejack still works on the farm making sure there is apple for all citizens, it had become tough for some people when the regime actually came.

Sweetie Belle had a rough time the past month. Her sister had tried to talk to her time and time, again but Sweetie Belle alway's gave her the same answer.

Canterlot Throne room

Princess Luna sat on her throne lost in thought. She was going to tell her sister today, about what truly happened in the coup. Pipsquek had informed her about what he knew, wich was sadly not much except that it truly was the CMC who are behind the coup. He had also informed her that he joined their military in hopes of giving Luna his favourite princess, information that she needs. Luna had smiled and given him a hug.

A few night's ago, she had been informed by pipsquek that The Cutie Mark Crusaders are going to war against the princesses. Luna had been so shocked that she didn't know what to say. She was happy for the heads up, but why would miss Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo go to war against them? In matter of fact Luna had given the their freedom to do their chaos, on their own people who were by the way suffering.

Pipsquek had apologised to Luna for not having information, as to why the CMC are going to war against them. Luna didn't take the apology and told him that it wasn't his fault.

As Luna was still deep in thought, her sister princess Celestia walked through the double doors looking paler for everyday that goes by.

"Sister, you wanted to talk to me?" Celestia asked, clearly tired and also lost in thought.

"I need to tell you something, sister." Luna said, with sorrow in her voice.

Luna explained everything to her sister about how the coup happened, how pipsquek was giving her information about 'Bás' and everything up until, the alleged war that was going to happen. Celestia was to shocked and horrified than to be angry at her sister. Celestia asked, Luna if she knew the reason why they were starting a war against them, but Luna shook her head saying that not even high ranking officials within their own parliament knew why.

"I don't think I can even bring myself, to fight a war against angry fillies, no matter if they even genocide their own people." Celestia said, with sorrow.

"I know sister, I don't intend to fight against them either." Luna said trying to comfort her sister.

The weapon is almost ready, and after it's ready, we will then blow up Canterlot.

The fall

Applebloom was standing outside their parliament, with her two best friend's. Their soldiers had built a little speech table were Applebloom would be doing her speeches. They had agreed to make Applebloom the one who does the speeches, because of her encouragement to their military. They hadn't told their military about taking down Canterlot, they would think that they were crazy, and perhaps they were. The CMC wanted to take down Canterlot because, then their citizens would realise that there is no hope.

Currently they were looking over at their military, who was probably the largest military. They all had the same uniform, wich was completely in black with an black helmet with a air tank, connected so they wouldn't die of their own heat, wait, no one dies in this story! You get the picture. All their soldiers together made up to atleast a hundred thousand soldiers.

"Our people, sons and daughters of Bás. Today is the day when the world will shake with fear. We have for the past two month's worked to our very core, to stabilise our country. We have also protected our people from oppressors. Today mares and gentlecolts, is the day when we rise from the shadows, on this day we shall act as one! We cannot be defeated!" Applebloom finished her speech, wich got several clapping hooves and claws.

There were some CMC soldiers holding their beautiful flag, swaying it left and right. Applebloom had a bit of an evil grin on her face. Scootaloo was smiling, but she to looked menacing. Sweetie Belle laughed maniacally.

"Come on girls, we gotta check on our demolition expert, to see if the weapon will be finished tonight." Applebloom said, with a hint of glee in her voice.

"Were gonna need lot's of fire power, and I mean a lot." Scootaloo said, with a voice almost as a child.

"They got spears, bows, and arrows. They don't have our kind of weapons, we gotta stick to war rules and laws." Sweetie Belle said, with an raised brow towards her friend.

"Sweetie Belle is right, we gotta follow those war rules and laws, because if we don't we'll be seen as monsters." Applebloom said, with absolutely no emotion.

"Okay, okay, I get it. We gotta follow rules and laws of war." Scootaloo said, with an annoyed tone.

They walked inside their parliament, towards the elevators that would take them down to their demolition.

After an extremely boring elevator ride, they walked out and headed inside their lab were their demolition expert were building their weapon. The lab looked like something straight out of a terrorist movie. C-4 everywhere wires, codes, chips, timers, and other weaponry stuff.

"Ah, mein fhürer's, I have been expecting you." He said, in his normal germeneigh accent.

"Good, is the weapon ready?" Applebloom asked, sounding like heart warming had come early.

"Ah, yes it is. Tonight, all you need to do is to take aim, and have somepony or gryphon shoot the shell towards Canterlot and boom, all You'rse." He said, very enthusiastically.

"Well, that's good. Then everything should be prepared." Sweetie Belle said, as it was end of discussion.

The three nodded and headed out towards their private room, leaving their demolition expert to study. The CMC had reached their private room, and started discussing all case scenarios, and different possibilities. Applebloom was thinking about what would happen after wards. No doubt, the guards of the day and night would try to invade Bás, but The Cutie Mark Crusaders is probably the strongest if you'd compare it to other pony kingdoms and empires. Applebloom was having second thought's, but then came to the realisation that the ponies of Bás was the reason they are doing what their doing. Applebloom excused herself and left the room.

She was walking down the hall to the medics to maybe get some medicine. She walked inside the clinic and saw two soldiers on two different beds, one male gryphon and a mare pony. They had two bullet wounds.

"What happened?" Applebloom asked, to no one in the room.

Fluttershy eept quietly, as to not draw attention to herself. She had been startled she hadn't heard anypony enter the room.

"Well, as you can see they have been shoot, but don't worry they aren't dead." Fluttershy said, with fear in her voice.

Fluttershy had once been yelled at for not doing her job "properly". She had cried for two night's in a row thinking that she was useless.

"What in the apple name are you scared of this time?" Applebloom said, irritatingly.

"No.....nothing I swear. It's just work that's all." Fluttershy said, with sorrow and fear.

"Ahahahahaha. Okay if you say so." Applebloom laughed.

Applebloom left the clinic room to go inform her friend's about the two shoot. It was most likely Rainbow Dash, so she'd end up AGAIN in the labour camp.

Fluttershy was still frozen by why Applebloom laughed. It wasn't a humorous laugh either, it was so dark and maniacally. She shivered in fear by the thought. She looked at the pony and gryphon, she didn't know who shot them but she knew that Rainbow Dash was gonna get the blame. Ever since The Cutie Mark Crusaders took over, they blamed the smallest and biggest things on Rainbow Dash. The main six knew why they did so, but they couldn't help but feel atleast a little bit angry at them for doing so.
Zecora walked into the room and made the gryphon and pony heal faster. After about five minutes they could walk and talk without feeling any sort of pain. They paid Zecora and Fluttershy five hundred bits and left.

"Is everything alright Fluttershy? You look a little bit scared." Zecora stated, worried for her friend.

"It's nothing, it's just that Applebloom came by earlier, and laughed maniacally. And when she saw they bodies she left afterwards. Now Rainbow is back in those horrid labour camps." Fluttershy explained, with sorrow in her voice.

Zecora went wide eye'd at that. She had never heard about any of the CMC laughing maniacally, but if that was the case then they really were lost. But then again it was just a laugh.

Bás lab room - parliament 3:00

A pony walked up to the extremely large gun, she was gonna do it. The CMC stood to the side, as to let her through. The setup was complete. She sat down on the stool thing on the weapon and aimed. She could see Canterlot super easily. She looked at her leaders who nodded. She aimed and pressed the lever on the weapon, releasing the bullet that shored through the sky and wind. Eventually it hit the castle of Canterlot, the citizens there screamed so loudly that Bás citizens heard it. Canterlot was in flames.

Canterlot had fallen.

Author's Note

Hello everypony :pinkiehappy: I just wanted to thank you all for o've read my first story on this site. I have a question tho,

Do you guy's want a sequel? :raritystarry:

The coup 3 (finale) and revelations

All the ponies of Ponyville were huddled together. Twilight and Fluttershy, helped, carrying Rainbow Dash. They were trying to find Rarity, Applejack and Pinkie Pie. Spike was looking for his friends, Twistin, Pipsquek and Rumble, even Big Mac! Spike didn't know what was going on, but because of a lot of book reading, he decided either this was some sort of coup, or it was an invasion. 'Well, technically it's both' spike thought.

Rainbow Dash felt immense pain. This was worse than training till you can't feel you're body. No, this was over the top pain that no one would like. She quietly wailed in her emotions, not wanting to show weakness to her friends, she wanted them to feel brave, and be strong. The Cutie Mark Crusaderssoldiers were keeping a look out, making sure everything is in order. The soldiers were starting to fear everypony, and wondered why they were here.

"OHMYGOSH RAINBOW DASH WHAT HAPPENED!!??!" A high pitch voiced said, with upper-class like voice.

Twilight and Fluttershy carefully, put Rainbow down on a bench, and started looking for the source of the voice. They were exactly in the middle point of Ponyville. The houses looked pretty much the same, although a bit richer class. A white unicorn with blue mane, and ocean blue eye's, was looking at Rainbow Dash with so wide eye's that Twilight feared that they would fall out. Rarity rushed up to Rainbow Dash but was very gentle, as to not hurt her.

"She....she was shot...........by one of these...........soldiers" Fluttershy said, quietly still in shock. She had never seen her friend so weak before. Sure Fluttershy had seen her weak when she realised that scootaloo and the other CMC ran away, but never had she seen her this defeated.

"Oh my, they sure mean business. Why did they shoot you for?" Rarity asked, hoping that she really didn't get the answer.

"I.....got angry.....and OW! I.....started mocking the gryphons" Rainbow said, with gritted teeth. Not out of anger, but because of the pain.

"Oh Rainbow, there are times when you should just be quiet" Rarity said, trying to help her hot-head friend.

Rainbow didn't say anything, she just nodded. Twilight started looking around, at the other ponies. Everypony looked completely broken, and in tears. Their home was burning, and these soldiers didn't do anything but smack ponies who disobeyed, or asked for help. 'Who are these soldiers working for?' Twilight asked, herself in her head.

Applejack cried as she saw Granny Smith being shot in her leg. She didn't know what these soldiers wanted, they had tried to reason with them, but the just hit them with the butt of the rifle on their head. Big Mac had tried to defend Granny, but he was knocked out cold, by a pony.

Applejack was forced into some sort of metallic........wagon? Applejack had never seen something like this before, sure she has driven wagons to the market to sell apples, but this looked more advanced? She didn't know how to describe it. She sat in a seat that was made out of black fabric, that was comfortable. She looked at the soldier's, while they carried Big Mac and Granny. Two gryphons placed them at the opposite side of Applejack, so she faced them. Big Mac was still knocked out cold, and Granny was still having problems with her leg. All of a sudden she felt the metallic wagon move. There wasn't any windows, so she couldn't tell wich direction they were heading. Applejack had heard the explosions tho, and so did Big Mac. Applejack had rushed outside to see what the commotion was, but that's where she was meet with the soldiers. Not long after Big Mac had rushed after her but was pushed by one of the pony soldier's. Granny Smith had walked outside and was met with seeing her grandchildren, being searched by unknown soldiers looking for any type of weapon. She had rushed to help them but was tackled by two gryphon soldiers, who realised was almost impossible. Applejack and Big Mac when they were finished searched looked around, in time to see a gryphon soldier pull out some metallic weapon, that looked kinda like a tree ranch with a some sort of button on it, and it was completely in black. The gryphon pressed the button and blood splattered as Granny Smith, for the first time in her life fell to the ground. Big Mac was angry and ran towards her, in an attempt to help her, but was meet with a hoof.

After ten minutes, even though it felt like an eternity, they finally stopped the metallic wagon. She heard two slams, and steps coming closer. Two gryphon's opened the back and grabbed Applejack, Granny Smith And Big Mac and tossed them into the pool of ponies. Applejack looked around and saw that everyone from Ponyville was here. She saw a light pink pony with deflated pink mane and tail walk up to her with nothing but sorrow in her eye's.

"Pinkie is that......,you? Applejack questioned, while still looking at the pony in front of her.

"Yes, they exploded Sugarcube corner with a bomb spell." Pinkie said, with a calm voice. But Applejack could see, that by just looking into her eye's, that she was anything but calm.

"Applejack, thank Faust that you are okay," said, a voice that she recognised. It was without a doubt Rarity. Applejack sighed in relief.

But Rarity wasn't the only one there, behind her was Rainbow Dash who was being carried by Fluttershy and Twilight. Applejack had tears, happy knowing that her friend's were okay, she noticed Rainbows shot wing, but almost immidiently knew what must o've happened.

Applejack was about to exchange words with them when, a loud voice started speaking.

Attention, everypony of Ponyville. We know that you want answers, and you will get them. You may fight all you want, but you will only hurt you're self and others in the end. Our leaders informed us about what you did to them, and I have never been disgusted more in my whole life! The voice of the gryphon disappeared as a stage, out of existence came down by magic. Three fillies walked up on the stage with bandanas, and was fully clothed in some sort of commander uniform. Then the three fillies removed the bandanas. Everypony gasped and went so pale, that it looked like that they died of shock, there they stood the CMC.

"Exactly you angry cowards, we are back." Scootaloo said, venemously.

"All of you shunned us, abused us, neglected us, ignored us, and finally didn't even accept the apology. Technically you had no right to be angry at us, when you practically begged us to continue. If you haven't noticed already, these are our military. We trained them and recruited them. We told them our story, both from you're side, to our side of it. To more important matters, we are renaming Ponyville to Bás. You have no say in this matter, hopefully after a couple of months, maybe even day's you'll realise what type of pain, we had to go through" Applebloom finished her speech and looked at the crowd.

Everypony was shocked, Applebloom had actually thought that someone in the crowd was going to be angry enough, to attempt on her life. No one dared anything at all. A pony soldier walked up towards her leaders, and bowed as she handed The Cutie Mark Crusadersflag.

Sweetie Belle took the flag and went up to the flag pole, and took down the Ponyville flag, and replaced it with The Cutie Mark Crusadersflag. Everyone didn't know what to say, everypony knew they screwed up, but they didn't know that they would become THISangry.

"Welcome to Bás." Applebloom said.

"Mayor mare, if you would be kind to follow us" Applebloom said.

we actually did it. Well now all we need is a good spell castor and a huge wall.
