Chapters The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Everything was burning to ashes, there was nothing she could do about it. She had protected those three fillies because she knew the consequences would be severe on them. She did understand tho why, they did it. It was because they wanted to see their citizens lose hope of being unified with Equestria. Now that they had blown up Canterlot they had pretty much achieved what they wanted. Luna looked at the castle that she and her sister shared, it was completely blown by what ever spell they used, or was it a gon gun? Luna wasn't sure what it was called but somewhere along those lines.
Prince Blueblood was dead. Luna had reached his bedroom but saw that he lay on the floor covered in blood. Luna couldn't help but actually be happy but also disgusted. She was happy because now she doesn't hafto listen to him complaining about stuff so minor, that she wants to send him to Tartarus, but the downside is now she would hafto go to war. She doesn't want to, but in the same time if she doesn't more ponies will day, but Faust know's how many has died tonight. She started walk through the rubble of brick's crystals and other building material. Luna reached the throne room were her sister was laying on the ground breathing heavily.
Luna rushed to her sisters aid, she started looking for any bruises or wounds that were small or minor. She didn't care how small a cut is, she is still her little sister. Slowly Celestia started waking up. She stirred a little bit until she opened her eye's seeing Luna looking down at her with a faint smile on her lips. Luna had several small bruises on her face, but nothing to serious.
"Luna, wha....., what happened? Where is everypony?" Celestia started asking, not caring about her own life only her little ponies.
"Either dead or wounded." Luna said, a little bit bluntly but because of the circumstances what could you do?
"Wait, I thought miss Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo said that no one dies in this story?" Celestia asked, flabbergasted.
"Don't ask me, ask I don't know Faust?" Luna said, unsure of how to respond.
Celestia decided that it was best to stop talking and more focus on her little ponies. She got in her hooves, wobbling and getting a bit dizzy. Her sister tried to protest but it fell on deaf ears. Celestia started walking slowly towards the exit. Her sister followed her, to make sure she's alright. When she got outside, she could see burning houses, offices, stores, and even some innocent ponies. Celestia did her best at shooting water through her horn on the ponies, then on the building.
Luna started looking around for her night guards, but either they were crushed by the building's or they were seriously wounded. Luna couldn't help but shed a few tears for the innocent ponies. She then realised something, if she had succeeded as nightmare moon, she would of then done around the same thing, plus genociding the ponies if they don't have sun to grow fruit or vegetables. Luna felt sick to her stomach, if she had succeeded........... She really didn't want to think about what would happen.
Celestia was walking around spraying from her horn water to take down the fires, she was also by the help of magic rebuilding their homes. Celestia couldn't help but feel anger at those three fillies. Why would they do this? Then it hit her like bricks. They wanted their own civilians to lose hope in their princesses. Celestia in her mind couldn't help but smile by the smartness of it. Absolutely genious, but they were still evil.
Luna was using her horn to cast spells that was rebuilding the citizens homes, who looked more than grateful. Luna couldn't help but think about the citizens of Bás, specifically Pipsquek. He hadn't been able to give his favorite princess the information that she needs, he had even looked down at the floor in shame and had told her about how they might or might not be on to him. Luna had assured that it was completely fine, saying that she understood.
Celestia walked around the city thinking about the main six. She was very worried about them, what if they think that she died with her sister? They obviously don't know now what's right or propaganda. Celestia couldn't blame them for starting to believe those new's papers, they're suppose to have the facts anyway. She was helping putting down fires and rebuilding their city. This wasn't over, oh noooo it wasn't.
Luna walked over to her sister with a frown on her face, she looked like she was trying to hold back tears, and Luna understood why she was nearly crying. She was suppose to protect them, and yet here she was, crying because she didn't know what else to do.
"Did.... Did Blueblood make it?" Celestia asked, already feeling that she knew the answer.
Luna shook her head no, and looked down in shame.
Celestia didn't know how to feel about that, she didn't exactly like or love him, but at the same time he was family.
Celestia looked up at the night sky, praying to Faust that she would help them in this war. Celestia didn't really know what to believe, but it was still worth a shot. Luna was actually doing the same, hoping to have help and guidance.
Bás - Parliament Live Tv.
Everyone in Bás was crying their eye's out. They had most likely lost their princesses, only because of their own stupidity. Everyone was forced to watch their TV to see the fall of Canterlot. The Cutie Mark Crusaders military was obviously celebrating as if there was no tomorrow, and perhaps that's the case? You never know.
Twilight and the other element bearers were openly crying their eye's out. They didn't think that the CMC would go that far, but how wrong they were. It was all their fault and they knew it.
Their beloved Princesses are most likely dead, but there are things that are far worse than death.
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Luna sat inside beside her sister in the meeting room. Because of what happened a few hours ago, there was nothing but to declare war. Luna didn't like the idea one bit, they were just fillies, but she did know that it was absolutely no excuse for what they did, that was an act of war. Celestia was currently discussing with her army generals about launching an attack against Bás. Luna couldn't help but feel bad for The Cutie Mark Crusaders soldiers, because in their eye's they are fighting for their country, and leaders. She was lost in thought and she started thinking about Pipsquek, it was no secret that she was his favourite princess, wich was also one of the many reasons why she really didn't want to go to war.
"We hafto act now, or they will think that they have won. We can't allow them to oppress their own people, because of what they did, even tho, I think they brought it on themselves. They have put their own civilians into concentration camps, or labour camp as they call it. Faust know's what else they have done. Wich is why we can't look the other way and pretend as if nothing has happened." Celestia stated, getting nods from everyone in the room.
"You're majesty, two weeks ago, there was a woman and a child that fled Bás with her child. The mothers name is Derpy Hooves, and her child's name is Dinky Doo." A commander informed the princess.
"Really, are they okay? It couldn't have been pleasant." Celestia said, with worry in her voice. She really did love the little fillies and colts, wich is why she does everything in her power to protect them.
"They're fine, but they are obviously frightened by what has happened. The filly's eye's tho, she looked terrified." The commander stated, with a hint of anger.
"I want no part of this." Luna said, surprising everyone and made her sister look at her.
"Luna, you... You can't be serious." Celestia said, with disbelief.
"Look, I understand why you all are doing this but, it's all wrong. Those soldiers have no choice, I talked to Pipsquek and he told me that the only way to get respect in their regime, is to practically join their military. He himself joined the military, and I think he might will be forced to fight against us. I want no part of this. Good look dear sister, I hope you succeed." Luna explained, as she walked towards the door with her night guards.
Everyone in the meeting room was dead silent. They had never heard Luna say no to something as big as this . But then again she did make some very good points that not even Celestia could deny. Celestia was the most shocked one out of all of them. She knew her sister was most likely not so keen in on the idea, but she didn't expect her to do something like this.
As Luna left with her night guards, she walked to her room, wich was a midnight feel to it. On her bed covers was the half of the moon with stars around it. The room was completely in midnight blue. She took out three large bags and started packing clothing food, and other essentials.
If her sister was gonna start a war, then she wanted to be gone before the chaos and destruction ensued. Almost all of her guards were only bat ponies, but there were a few normal ponies also, she knew three of her guards were in a relationship, and was gonna allow them to stay if they so wished. Luna was done packing and lavitated the three large bags, into a small trolley thing that was flat but used in hotels, or atleast the ones she has been to.
"I know you have done a lot tonight but call in every night guard as you can." Luna said, with a hint of sorrow in her voice.
The two night guards nodded and ran of. Twenty minutes later and every night guard were standing in from of her and looked at her with pride, but still kept their blank expression.
"I know that you wonder why as to I called you here. My sister wants to start a war against Bás, but I don't even after what they did to us. I understand my sisters intentions but I refuse to go to war." Luna said, looking out on her guards.
Many of her guards looked shocked. Luna couldn't help but snicker in her head, they had the reaction she was already expecting. The other guards looked perplexed as to why their princess wasn't going to war against her enemies.
"If you want to come with me, then it's up to you. Because you see, I a'm going to live in a cave far from Canterlot and even Equestria. It's a very large cave that I found when I was younger, it's like a completely new continent, but I know some of you are in relationships, wich is why I ask you to now either leave, or join our journey." Luna said, looking out on the dozen heads in the little crowd. No one left or even moved and inch. This made Luna smile.
"Are you all sure, there is no backing out after this?" Luna asked, cautiously.
No one moved, it was clear that they were gonna stick to their princess at all costs. It was one of the many reasons she adored her night guard, they had determination like no other.
"Follow me then, everypony." Luna said, in her royal Canterlot voice.
She walked forward as a leader and princess for her small army. They walked through the streets of Canterlot and walked far away from the castle. Little did Luna know, that her sister was watching her through the window. Celestia wasn't angry at all, she understood why her sister had done what she had done, but she still couldn't help but feel betrayed.
Luna, I never thought you'd leave you're sister, but it was a smart move. The war is on.
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
After the large explosion happened in Canterlot, several soldiers by Celestias order were forced to the battlefield. Bás was fighting with weapons they had never seen before, and it honestly scared them. The solar guards were fighting with spears, bows and arrows, and magic, but their enemies were fighting with something metallic. Pipsquek didn't like this one bit, he knew that he didn't have a choice but what could he do? He was fighting for Bás and their glory, but they were fighting unfairly with weapons that the royal guards didn't even have.
Pipsquek ran through the desert like place, and took cover over a large stone. He raised his head up a little and saw a couple of solar guards and shoot at them. The solar guards fell down dead or seriously injured. Pipsquek felt guilt, but it had to be done. His leaders obviously didn't care, or atleast that he knew of. His friend's ran up to him and took cover with him. Spike was looking depressed because he was fighting against his own country, but at the same time if he didn't do it, they would hurt the ponies he cared about. Rumble was in the same situation, his brother was in baltimare performing with the Wonderbolts, and he didn't know whether his brother knew or not. Twistin felt like crying, because of the death and destruction around them, only because they were stupid for not listening to the CMC.
"Okay, what is our position?" Spike asked, with adrenaline in his body.
"A couple of solar guards, are up ahead. We could rush it and surprise them and spray them with bullets." Rumble suggested, hoping that he wouldn't have to do anything to violent.
"Sure, i'll do it, just give em a few more seconds." Twistin said, surprising everpony and dragon.
"Alright, then it's settled." Pipsquek said, with worry in his voice.
Twistin waited for the solar guards to look his way, when they did, he ran out with his assault rifle in his hooves and aimed down the sight and shoot. The solar guards fell down dead with blood running down from their bodies from their wounds. Twistin felt horrified with himself, he didn't think he'd be able to pull it of, but he did. His friend's stood there dumbfounded by what happened, Twistin was a bit like Pinkie, a party animal, but they have never seen him so forced before. Spike was a dragon but even he thought that he wouldn't be able to pull it of. Rumble didn't want to think of it, he was surprised but at the same time wasn't. Pipsquek knew what drove Twistin to do something like this, he had heard from fellow soldiers that Twistin might had been threatened, for trying to communicate with the outside world, if it was true or not, remained un-said.
"Come on, we don't have all day. We gotta go back to the barracks." Twistin said, with a hint of fear in his voice.
They nodded and followed him. The train station between Bás, Canterlot and other parts of Equestria had been completely of shut, since the country got their new regime. Spike and his friend's reached the barracks and identified themselves. A door opened to reveal their whole military power. There were several large vehicles called 'Tanks' that was very big in size and drove on water, how The Cutie Mark Crusaders did it was a mystery. Spike suspected that it was their demolition expert, since he is extremely smart. There were other vehicles with weapons on them like LMG's and so on. Needless to say The Cutie Mark Crusaders was probably the strongest army in Equestria, maybe even the world! From stories that Spike heard from an gryphon, even queen Chrystalis was scared of the CMC military, so they signed a peace treaty. Inside the barracks were soldiers training and preparing for their defences. Spike felt guilty, because he was one of the ones that drew them away, he guessed that a part of him wanted to make amends and that's why he joined their military. 'If I had listened to their side of the story.' Spike thought letting a tear drop.
Twistin didn't really do anything towards the CMC but he still felt very guilty. He was not on the new's papers but he still ignored them. Pipsquek was guilty, but because he was blackmailed himself, was actually one of the reasons he lived like a rich pony.
Canterlot Castle - The Meeting Room
Celestia was in the meeting room discussing tactics with the generals. They were surprised by the weapons used by The Cutie Mark Crusaders they were astonished and amazed by the weapons, they hadn't been able to knock out one of the CMC soldiers, but they had gotten a good look on the weapons.
"I have never seen anything so dangerous but also useful. I'm afraid that they might win this war if they keep this up." One general said, sounding completely defeated.
"I understand general, but is there nothing we can do? Have you seen how it might work?" Celestia nearly begged.
"I'm sorry you're majesty, but I think there might be something inside this weapon, that helps it shoot it's spells." The general said, sounding defeated again.
This was an real headache. Then a thought hit her, maybe she should contact Sunset Shimmer? Maybe she knows of these 'weapons'. Celestia was completely desperate, if the CMC continued like this than they would win the war easily. She want's to help the CMC but in the same time she doesn't know how much of them is left. Her sister left yesterday, not wanting a part of this war, but what could she do? She would count on the element bearers but they were now just slaves to Bás. A few of Celestia's spies had said, that they had found Rainbow Dash in a some sort of labour camp that King Sombra used on the Crystal Ponies. She had been horrified when she saw the memories. Celestia sighed there was nothing she could do.
"Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. Please have mercy on you're ponies." Celestia begged.
you're time is almost up, CMC but what's the fun in intervening?
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Ever since the invasion of Ponyville, thing's had obviously been tough. Lyra and Bon Bon knew this very well. Lyra could barely do anything she liked these day's because of their leaders. Bon Bon had tried to sell as much candy as possible, but because of how some ponies lived in poverty it was mostly the rich that bought some. Business had been absolute awful to say the least. Lyra and Bon Bon knew why the CMC was doing this, but it still doesn't make it right. With no other choice, both of them closed the shop and searched for a job.
At first it was difficult because a lot of ponies were searching for a job, but then they saw an opportunity at the police station. They went over and signed the application and said, their bye's. A couple of day's later they got an response saying that they got the job. Lyra and Bon Bon was obviously happy, now they didn't have to worry about money.
The first day was very easy, mostly because nothing happened. Lyra had gotten something called a 'drivers license' she didn't know why she needed it but she still took a few 'driving tests' and paper tests and she succeeded. Lyra had heard that humans used drivers licenses, so that was also the reason as to why she wanted one without knowing the reason.
Bon Bon was on the passenger seat when they had gotten a call, stating that there had been a murder. Lyra floored it to the west side of Bás, and didn't slow down. Ponyville had changed since the CMC took over. They have now tall mettal buildings, but also stone roads, and something humans used called phones and television. The CMC had never said, how they got their hands on them, but they were thankful. The television tho only showed documentaries about Bás and their 'glorious' leaders. The phones were mostly used for messages and calls, but they were only used by the police force and military. Lyra and Bon Bon got two phones for themselves so they could communicate with each other.
Lyra and Bon Bon also got something called 'guns' they could kill ponies with it. The thought made them shudder tho, they don't think they would be able to kill somepony. Lyra parked the police car and got out.
The police car had like any police car, police lights and sirens. The car itself was tinted in completely black except for the pony aiming a rifle and the text saying; The Cutie Mark Crusaders Police Force . Lyra smiled slightly, she couldn't deny that she was a little proud of being in the police force, but she really did miss her old life when things were simple.
Bon Bon got out of the car and walked up to a large red bricked building that looked abandoned. Instead of normal windows were wood covering it. Bon Bon kicked the door in, and walked inside. She pulled out her gun and flashlight, and started scanning the floor for any bodies.
"CMCPD show you're self." Bon Bon called out.
She didn't get a response, or even a groan, it was just plain silence. Bon Bon walked further inside the building and found an staircase. She walked up the stairs but being very careful, as to not make to much noise. The second floor was stinky, like really stinky. Bon Bon used her mouth instead for breathing. She walked deeper inside until she found the body, she quickly got her phone out and dialed Lyra.
"Cutie Mark Crusaders Police Department." Lyra said, tiredly thinking that it was one of the other officers.
"Lyra, I got a dead body on the second floor, I repeat I got a dead body on the second floor." Bon Bon said, surprisingly quick.
"Oh, sorry Bon Bon, dead body? Want me to call a forensics team?" Lyra asked, looking around the shady neighborhood.
"Yes, that would be great." Bon Bon responded.
Lyra hung up and dialed the forensics team, and told them to speed down to western Bás. They had told her that they were coming and they drove like mad ponies there.
When they finally got there they rushed to the second floor, and started investigating. They checked the body and found that it was a stallion, and was in his mid twenties and looked similar to Big Mac in size. They tried to identify him, but he quickly became a john-do.
"I don't get it." Lyra said, as she and Bon Bon was walking to the car.
"What is it, that you don't get?" Bon Bon asked, curiously.
"The whole situation. Who made the call? Either it's a fellow police officer of a soldier, but neither make much sense. Why would they kill that stallion? Even tho, that we don't know much about the stallion, or anything for that matter, he didn't have his military uniform or police uniform, but then again he could of been of duty." Lyra explained, her thoughts.
Bon Bon thought for a moment. The situation was weird, they didn't find ANYTHING on the stallion. Maybe they should check files of ponies that have disappeared for the last few day's.
"Maybe we should check files on ponies that have been missing the last few day's, just to see if the stallion matches any foto or description." Bon Bon suggested.
"You know what? Let's go for it. Why tho, do I have a feeling that we already know this stallion?" Lyra asked, feeling shivers down her spine.
"He did kind of look familiar, but then again when it comes to Bás, everypony knows everypony, or atleast recognise each other." Bon Bon said, lost in thought of the dead stallion.
Lyra nodded and drove to the police station. The roads looked completely new, but then again the construction workers have Pinkie Pie work sometimes for construction. The houses they past were filled with The Cutie Mark Crusaders propaganda. They continued to drive until they finally reached the station.
Lyra parked the car and got out practically rushing it into the station and into the archives room. Bon Bon rushed after her and walked into the station. It was like any other police station, they had a reception some officers walking around a waiting area, and some criminals that in reality didn't even know why they were even there. The only difference was that they had The Cutie Mark Crusaders flags. Bon Bon continued further into the building. When she reached the archives, she saw Lyra standing there looking extremely pale.
"Lyra, what is it?" Bon Bon asked, concerned for her friend.
Lyra looked at her and handed the file over to her. When Bon Bon saw the picture she thought that she was gonna scream.
"Are you sure that the dead stallion, is Big Mac?" Bon Bon Asked.
He deserved after what he told us to do.
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Applejack saw a police car pull up on the farm. Applejack was a little bit nervous, because it was extremely unusual that they pulled up on any apartment block, or building without arresting someone. Needless, Applejack walked over to them, and immidiently recognised them as, Lyra and Bon Bon. Applejack felt a sense of relief, they were the "kind" officers, around Bás and probably the only ones that weren't corrupt.
"Howdy there, Officer's. What can I help ya with?" Applejack asked, trying to be friendly and as normal as possible.
Lyra sighed, she knew it wasn't gonna be pleasant for Applejack. Lyra walked over and gave Applejack a hug.
"I'm sorry Applejack, but you're brother was found dead this afternoon. Me and Bon Bon was the ones who got the call." Lyra explained, with tears in her eye's.
Applejack had an unreadable expression. Applejack was to shocked to think or do anything, her brother was dead. 'My brother is dead?' Now something is really up. Applejack remembered her brother saying something about getting medicine for his headache but that was it.
"Why? Why is it alway's me? I know I screwed up with Applebloom, but to lose Big Mac also? I know I have done wrong but haven't I suffered enough? Me and Granny and Big Mac live practically in poverty, because of how much the CMC hate us. It is Applebloom isn't it? She is doing something that will make me wish I didn't do anything." Applejack had finished her rant and was panting.
Lyra and Bon Bon, was surprised that she didn't lash out on them. They expected her to be angry at them or something, but seeing Applejack like this, it was clear as crystals that she was at her lowest.
"Don't worry Applejack, if it turns out to be Applebloom then we'll have a meeting with her. If it isn't her then we'll look until we find the perpetrator." Bon Bon said, trying to give Applejack hope.
Applejack didn't acknowledge anything she just turned around and walked back to the farm. Lyra and Bon Bon got into the police car and drove of into the city that only literally only took a couple of seconds.
Applejack walked into their house were Granny Smith was looking through old foto's of Applebloom and other family members. Granny looked up, and gave Applejack the stink eye.
"Big Mac is dead. I don't know who killed him but I suspect that it's Applebloom." Applejack said, with tears in her eye's.
As soon as Applejack said, Applebloom, Granny rushed up so fast that Rainbow's jaw would've reached Tartarus. Granny smacked Applejacks cheek so hard Applejack nearly flew. Applejack was expecting this kind of reaction from her.
"It is you're own fault that she is doing what she's doing." Granny said, very slowly so that Applejack didn't miss a word.
Applejack nodded. She didn't really have a comeback after that statement. She walked out of the house, and left the farm and walked into the city to see if she could find her friend's. 'There are soldier's and spies everywhere, one of em must have seen who killed Big Mac' Applejack thought, to herself.
Twilight was walking out of a grocery store when she spotted Applejack. She trotted up to he oblivious mare, that hadn't seen Twilight.
"Applejack?" Twilight asked, unsure of what to do.
Applejack spun around and saw Twilight.
"Oh, hey Twilight. Having a good day?" Applejack asked, trying to small talk.
"Yes, relatively. What about you? You seemed lost in thought." Twilight asked, curious.
"My.... My brother is is dead." Applejack said, barely able to contain her tears.
Twilight was shocked, she didn't know what to say to her friend. She had known Big Mac when she first came to Ponyville, and knew he wasn't much of a talker. She put down her grocery bags and hugged her friend who returned the gesture.
"Twilight if you spot one of our other friend's, could you tell them what happened? It's just I don't think I can handle seeing all of them at once and tell them." Applejack asked, looking down on the ground.
"Of course Applejack, whatever you need." Twilight answered.
"Thank's Twilight, enjoy the rest of you're day." Applejack said, trying to sound like usual.
Applejack and Twilight walked their separate way's, and continued their day, but still felt a sting in their heart.
Granny Smith was inside her room, openly crying her tears out. She felt guilt that she had still been angry at Big Mac, because now he would never know that she still loved him. He died thinking that she hated him and was upset at him.
She felt anger towards Applebloom for the first time since the invasion. She never thought that Applebloom would kill a family member. Then again, she has been doing a lot of things that would be seen as war crimes, and normal crimes like corruption, wrongful arrests and so on. Granny wanted to talk to her, but she didn't know how to do so.
Rainbow Dash had been released from the labour camp. She couldn't help but feel like she deserved it but at the same time feel angry, she understood why Scootaloo did what she did when it came to blame everything on Rainbow Dash, but everything that's going on in this country is not her fault! How can she be responsible for stuff she didn't even know happened? But then again she herself did the same thing when it was revealed that Diamond Tiara was behind the whole scheme, she thought that the CMC told her to take the fall or else.
She couldn't help but feel disgusted by herself. Diamond Tiara had been executed publicly, but everyone pretended like it didn't happen. Rainbow couldn't blame them, who want's to remember a child being publicly hanged?
The Cutie Mark Crusaders - Parliament
Applebloom was sitting with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. She had just told them about the killing of her brother Big Mac. The other two smiled, but the they had a question on their minds.
"Why?" Sweetie Belle asked, genuinely curious.
"Because he told us to go away. So I thought 'why not make him go away?' So I payed a spy to kill him. He should have known better." Applebloom said, with malice. The other two nodded.
Our soldiers are fighting for our glorious nation. Hopefully we will soon win and we take over.
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Explosions could be heard on the battlefield. Two nations fighting for their country, but in reality those soldiers don't want to fight against each other, in reality they just want to live in peace, but because of what the CMC did that goal will be impossible. Spike and his friend's were running from cover to cover, and sometimes fired at their enemy. Spike had heard about Big Macs death and it had taken a toll on him. Big Mac was a good friend of his, so losing him was absolutely horrible. He knew that the CMC most likely did it, but what evidence does he have? Their 'glorious' leaders, are to high up in the government to be able to do anything. The country is corrupt, everyone knew that but no one said it aloud in fear of being arrested.
Twistin ran and took cover behind a large stone. He had been having a hard time since he found out about the murder on Big Mac, they weren't by any means close, but it was still tragic. What Twistin couldn't understand was why. Why had Applebloom killed him? Or her spy did, but still. It just doesn't make sense. Twistin had heard about Big Mac telling the crusaders to just go away, but Twistin didn't believe that, there must be more at play here.
Rumble rushed behind two royale guards and knifed them. He felt disgusted by himself, for killing two ponies who simply were doing their jobs. Rumble was thinking about the murder about Big Mac, he was a little shaken about the whole thing, mostly because his sister is one of the three leaders of his nation. Then again Big Mac did obviously tell the CMC to just go away, but that is just not a strong enough motive. Sure you would be angry maybe a little hateful but not enough to actually kill a pony.
Pipsquek was using a RPG to blast carriages that the royale guards were using. He was tho, lost in thought as to why Applebloom killed her brother. There must be a bigger motive than a couple of words, or a'm I missing something? These were one of the big questions that Pipsquek had, but had no answer.
The royale guards were losing this battle surprisingly fast, but they needed not to lose! They had to do everything in their power to win this battle. In reality the royale guards knew that it was no use, they would just fail like the other battles.
"FALL BACK, I REPEAT, FALL BACK!!!!" One of the royale guards shouted.
The royale guards looked like they weren't gonna move at all, but they had to listen to their commander. They ran for it, they ran faster than Rainbow Dash could fly, eventually they got back to Canterlot wich was now huge fences around it. They had been fighting on the dirt between Canterlot and Ponyville. Bás Soldiers were surprisingly good, in fighting, then again what do you expect from a country ruled by a tyrant, or in this case tyrants.
One of the royale guards walked up towards princess Celestia who looked worried. He walked and gave his bow. He rose and looked at her in the eye's.
"I'm sorry you're majesty, The Cutie Mark Crusaders soldiers won again. But I asure you that we will continue fighting until Ponyville has been liberated." The commander said, with determination.
Celestia smiled. She really admired her little ponies courage to do anything that's right. She nodded at the commander.
"Do you have any new information commander?" Celestia asked, with curiosity.
"I'm sorry you're majesty, I do not." The commander answered with a hint of shame.
"Understood, now rest my little ponies you'll need it." Celestia said.
The ponies nodded and went their ways. It was gonna be a long day tomorrow, fighting again that just feels meaningless.
Bás - Spike's apartment
Spike was inside his apartment drinking. He had bought the apartment when he had money for it, he had saved a lot of bits for the apartment. The apartment itself cost forty thousand bits. Spike had four rooms in the whole place. A bathroom, a kitchen, a living room, and a bedroom. It may not be much but it was still a home. Spike was currently making dinner in the kitchen, but occasionally drinking his vodka. He was making a large gem sandwich. When he was done, he walked into the living room, and turned on the TV and watched some documentaries about the foundation of the CMC and how they created their army and Bás. Spike was actually a little curious since they actually mention how Ponyville once looked like, and who ruled it then and so on.
Spike actually enjoyd the documentary, but he still wanted everything to go back to normal, when everything was fine. No tyranny rule, no angry mob at the CMC just a normal day. He knew it was a stupid dream, they were never gonna be liberated, especially since they had weapons that could kill instantly. Spike continued watching the documentary and learned some surprising lies, they were telling in the documentary. They were saying the elements of harmony had tortured the CMC and that's why Sweetie Belle has lost sight on what's right and wrong? 'If that is actually true then I don't want anything to do with them.' Spike thought to himself. There were a few other lies the documentary was saying, like how an angry mob of ponies were spitting on them, or it was a lie until a video played showing an angry mob of ponies actually SPITTING on them.
"Ges, I knew they had it tough but boy, I never thought that they had it that tough." Spike said, out loud to no one.
"Well I better get some shut eye." Spike said, turning of the TV and brushed his teeth and then went to sleep in his room.
Spike, Spike, Spike if it were all lies, why do you then think we hate you all?
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Princess Luna and her soldiers were in the large cave. It was almost as if you were in a completely different climate. There was a large green flat grass that was a little bit warm, but that could be because of the tropical air. Luna had built through her magic, a large manor for herself. Her guards had also gotten homes, some small some big, by their own requests.
Luna was currently inside 'Solaris Manor' and was thinking about her decision. A part of her told her to just go back and help her sister, but another part of her told her that she made the right decision. Luna just shrugged it of. She decided to walk around the dream world, her guards were out and about. It wasn't unusual for them to be up at night, in matter of fact a few of them even preferred the night instead of the day. Luna walked towards the large window and looked at her glorious night that she had created, she was looking through the opening of the cave.
She shined her magic through her horn, then like she teleported, she was in the dream world. Luna looked at all the doors. There were millions of them. Luna decided to check upon Pipsquek to see if she could get something from him. She started walking until she saw the door in question. She walked through it and saw Pipsquek sitting in a very upper class chair, with a cider bottle in hoof.
"Pipsquek, how are you?" Luna asked, trying to avoid the fact that he was drinking cider with SALT?
"Um, excuse me dear Pipsquek, but is that salt?" Luna asked, cautiously pointing her hoof on the salt.
"Yes princess Luna, that is salt. You see I'm in a bit of a depressed state." Pipsquek explained, showing genuine depression.
"What have caused you to go into this darkness?" Luna asked, afraid of knowing the answer.
"Big Mac was killed a few hours ago maybe a day ago." Pipsquek answered, with no emotion.
Luna was shocked. They had killed somepony? Are they really capable of something like that? If they are then we hafto make sure they don't kill anymore ponies. Luna knew that Big Mac belonged to the Apple family, since there were a few memories of him in Applebloom's dreams.
"I..... I'm...... So sorry Pipsquek." Luna stuttered out.
Pipsquek remained silent, he didn't know what to say. He was a little bit angry at the CMC because they would go so far, but also scared because they would go so far.
"I'll leave you alone, because you most likely wanna be alone right now." Luna said, wanting to process the information.
"Understood princess, enjoy the night." Pipsquek said, wich actually made Luna smile.
Luna walked out the door and left Pipsquek be, because she knew he was tying to process the information, and deal with the loss. Luna walked over to Applebloom's door. She stepped inside and was greeted by violence. The violence were of angry mob of ponies, after they found out who made Gabby Gums, they wanted to take matters into their own hands. They cornered Applebloom who appeared at the time to be alone, and was beaten up roughly, after a few minutes and Luna nearly breaking down in tears, the beating was of.
"After something like that, I can't help but feel that miss Applebloom's actions were correct except for her brother's killing." Luna said, aloud.
"So, do you know why we did what we did? Or do you want more memories?" Applebloom asked, from behind her.
Luna wasn't faced by this. She had meet lot's of ponies able to control their dream's. Luna turned around and showed some sympathy for Applebloom.
"I'm sorry Applebloom, for the trauma you endured." Luna said, with tearful eye's.
Applebloom looked like she was utterly bored. She looked at the princess like she knew exactly why she was here (perhaps that is the case) but with her bored expression. Luna was unsure who was gonna talk first.
"Why exactly are you here? I think I know why, but I wanna hear you say it." Applebloom said, with no emotion.
"I came here to see if you have some sanity left. It appears that you have, considering why you haven't attacked me yet, but if I may ask. Why aren't you surprised to see me?" Luna asked, a bit surprised seeing Applebloom not surprised seeing her.
"Our monitors picked up movements. We checked our cameras to see who it was and we were surprised to see you and you're two thousand or something guards." Applebloom explained, with utter boredom.
Luna had no idea what Applebloom was talking about. 'Monitors? Like a spell?' 'Cameras?' Luna didn't know what these thing's were, but she intended of finding out. She decided that they had seen her and she left it at that.
"You better get going, there are more important ponies to check up on." Applebloom said, as she walked away.
Luna was taken aback about what she said. It wasn't because of what she said, but because of how she said it. Did Applebloom feel guilt? If that's the case then why is she continuing? Or it could simply be because of her brother's killing.
Luna just sighed sadly, as she walked towards the door. She didn't know what Applebloom had guilt about, but she wanted to find out. She wanted to go to Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo's dream's, but she was still shaken from her interesting talk with Applebloom, perhaps she was scared to face the truth? The truth is like the sun, the more you look into it, the more it blinds you. Then again no one truly know's what is the truth. Ponyville or Bás as it's now called, obviously the civilians now day's doesn't know the truth.
Luna went out of the dream realm just in time to see her sisters sun fly above everything, showing everything Faust created. Luna walked to her bedside and fell on the pillow and went to sleep.
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Trixie had gotten a notice a couple of day's ago, stating that her time was up and she was forced to leave Bás. She didn't want to leave Bás because of the conditions the ponies were in, but at the same time it wasn't Ponyville anymore. Trixie hooked herself to her caravan and walked away towards the Bás border. A couple of soldiers were standing there, three gryphons and two ponies and a dragon!?! Spike? What is he doing?
"Spike? What are you doing?" Trixie asked, completely confused.
"Working, you are here to leave Bás right?" Spike asked, simply.
"Trixie had no choice." Trixie answered, a little irritatingly.
"Just shut up, and walk out of Bás." Spike said, angrily. He even surprised his companions.
Trixie flinched at that. She had never seen him angry, possibly annoyed but never angry. She just walked passed him and walked over the country border and was back in Equestria. She walked cautiously, through what looked like a battlefield. She decided to head to Canterlot.
Trixie walked all the way there, trying to process what has happened the last couple of weeks. She had been allowed to perform but only if she represented their 'fearless leaders'. Trixie had been to shaken to say anything else, other than yes. A lot of citizens of Bás came and watched the show, and the actually seemed to enjoy it.
She hadn't realised that she was walking into a pony until.
"Uhff, watch were you're going!!" An angry voice shouted.
"Trixie apologises sir, I was lost in thought." Trixie said, smiling sheepishly.
The stallion was white fured, and had black mane, that looked like it came straight out of a magazine. He had a cloak that looked majestic, with wine red but a little lighter.
"And were did you just walk from?" The stallion asked, eyeing her angrily.
"B.... Bás." Trixie answered, weakly under his gaze.
The stallion looked at her with shocked eye's, 'is she another defector?'
"I'm terribly sorry for how I treated you earlier. Do you wanna come inside?" The stallion asked, now concerned for the mare.
"Um, yes please." Trixie said, as the stallion nodded.
The two walked into the castle, and as alway's it looked majestic, the stallion led her to an room that looked like belonged to meetings. The stallion lead her into the room, and motioned her to wait there. The room had an long table, with the sun on one side and the moon on the opposite end. There were flags in the room also, of both the sun and moon. Trixie sites for about fifteen minutes until the stallion came back with princess Celestia and three of her guard's. Celestia smiled at her Trixie bowed to her.
"You may rise, my little pony." Celestia said, with warmth.
"Now I have heard from chancellor Neighsay here, that you have been to Bás or defected, could you explain wich is correct?" Celestia asked, with kindness.
"I had something called a visa, it allowed me to enter the country without much trouble, except I had to go at night." Trixie explained.
"I see, and may I ask, what did you see and do when you were there?" Celestia asked, hoping to have as much information about Bás as possible.
"Well, the morning when I was walking around their large city, I saw a lot of police officers and soldiers walking around, their police seems to be corrupt. The soldiers on the other hand seems to be watching everpony's movements." Trixie explained, she hoped she had what princess Celestia was after.
Celestia seemed to be lost in thought. If it was true about what Trixie said, about the corruption, the soldiers, and anything else then they are living in fear. Tho, it is just a punishment towards the ponies that wronged them. The ponies must feel both ashamed and scared, but probably angry also, but they have no one to blame but themselves.
"I thank you sincerely for giving me this information, it is vital for when we free Ponyville." Celestia said, with sorrow thinking of her student.
Trixie nodded and left the room lost in thought.
Bàs - Applebloom's room
Applebloom was in her room crying. She had never cried this hard in her life, because this was way to personal. She had hired a spy to kill her brother, and at first she felt absolutely nothing. Now she felt sorrow, guilt, anger, hatred, but also betrayal. Applebloom looked out the window and saw Sweet Apple Acres. Sometimes she missed home, mostly working on the farm and having a good time and enjoying life. Now she lived the highest class there was, ruler. Together with her friend's they rule this nation together. Applebloom went out of her gold bed and walked over to her office wich was in the other room, she looked at the papers. These were visa applications for the entire Apple family for visiting each other wich they did every hundren moon. She approved all of them and sent them back to them. She wasn't gonna stop them from, having fun with family.
"Maybe I should go, it would actually be fun to see them and see their facial expression." Applebloom snickered at the thought.
"I think I'll do just that, just to see their facial expression." Applebloom thought.
The Apple Family was coming in one week, and they were gonna be surprised to see how much Ponyville has changed, or for them it's Ponyville but for the civilians it's Bás.
Applebloom brushed her teeth and put on her fancy clothing and walked down the hall to have a meeting with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.
The cave - Solaris Manor
Luna was sleeping peacefully. She was a lucid dreamer, so she controlled everything in her dream. She was sitting on her couch in her manor, dream and was lost in thought about how she could possibly help the CMC from the path of evil. Maybe she should talk to them all at once, maybe that would work, and make them remember the good times of when they lived in Ponyville.
Time is running out crusaders. Soon you will be on you're knees.
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Night couldn't come quicker in Luna's opinion. She now had a plan on how to possibly make them walk away from the path of evil. Of course there was no guarantee that absolutely everything was going to work, for all she knew, it could trigger their hatred even stronger. Then again, she didn't really know if it would trigger anything at all to begin with. Luna was thinking of different scenarios, that could happen, but neither seemed possible to begin with. Luna looked around her bedroom. The walls were decorated in night blue paint. The ceiling was decorated with stars and the moon, with a lamp with some gems as decoration on it. She had a queen sized bed with the stars and moon as cover, she had a desk with a chair were she had some important papers, but mostly profiles of her guards. She had a large wardrobe with several dresses for different occasions. Luna was thinking about how life was at the castle before she defected, she smiled sadly at the memories but cherished them.
Luna raised her beautiful moon, and waited two hours for everypony to slumber, after the long wait, Luna went into the dream world and started searching for either of the crusaders room. She found Scootaloo's and made it stay there, while she searched for the other crusaders doors. After five minutes, she found Sweetie Belle's and connected it with Scootaloo's. She searched for Applebloom the longest, she either wasn't asleep or she was being difficult to find. Eventually she found her, and connected her door to the other crusaders door's. Luna waited five minutes before she went in, she wanted them to get used to their new environment.
Luna walked in and saw a bright light. It blinded her a little bit, but eventually got used to it. She walked in and was greeted with a horrible sight. It was the "new" Ponyville but the Ponies were being hanged publicly by their leaders. Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were standing on their balcony and watching with boredom. Luna had seen horrible sights before, heck, stuff that would make Tartarus look like a children's playground, but she had never seen anything like this. 'Not even Sombra was this bad' Luna thought, to herself.
Luna decided to fly towards the balcony and confront them. She flew up towards them, who looked at her with un-interest. Luna was a little surprised but at the same time wasn't.
"Hello, my little ponies. I believe you know why I brought you here?" Luna asked, with a hint of dominance. Showing that they were gonna listen to her even if they didn't like it.
"Come right this way princess," Applebloom said, with happiness. Where it came from was an absolute mystery that even Pinkie Pie wouldn't find out.
Luna followed her and the crusaders into their parliament, she looked at her surroundings as much as she could. Applebloom walked through the empty hallway's, with dominance. Eventually they got to a room, wich Luna guess were their meeting room. Luna walked in and waited for them to finish up their starring contest that they had on her. Applebloom motioned for them to sit and she did.
"I'm quite surprised that you wanted to speak with all three of us, I thought you wanted us to die when you're sister tries to take back Bás." Applebloom said, bluntly.
"I wanted to show you something, something that would help you remember who you once was. To answer you're question, I don't want you to die." Luna revealed.
The crusaders got awfully quiet. She looked out of one of the windows and used her magic to show one of Applebloom's memories. It showed her the fun time she had with her sister and brother. Applebloom was taken aback by this, but didn't show any emotion. Applebloom looked at all the happy memories, eventually she couldn't keep the façade anymore and broke down in tears.
The next memory was for Scootaloo. Luna used her magic and went to the memories of Scootaloo. Luna found some stuff and put it into motion. Eventually the scenery changed as Scootaloo's memory, started playing. It showed all the fun times she had in school with her friend's and being really happy. Scootaloo was unfaced by this and showed no emotion. Luna pushed into her memories specifically the personal stuff. She found a few memories that Scootaloo still held dear. Scootaloo broke down crying.
The finale one was for Sweetie Belle, and Luna knew she was going to break down to. The scenery change and Sweetie Belle's memories started playing. There was so many happy moments in her life, that she cherished a lot. A scene started playing showing affection her sister showed her. The next one was being well liked by everypony. Sweetie Belle broke down in tears, and her eye's almost exploded with tears, that rushed out of her eye's.
Luna didn't like hurting them like this, but if it helped the ponies of Bás then she'd do it. She watched as the crusaders cried. She walked over to them and showed them warmth from her wings, and cooing them. They started calming down and relaxed with red eye's.
"Have you now realised what you have done? Not only did you take away their smiles, but their security and their son, daughter, friend, family member and others." Luna said, A bit coldly but she knew she couldn't sugarcoat it.
The crusaders nodded together and cried again. Luna sighed, hoping that tomorrow was the end of the war. That is a silly thought to be very honest. The war just end, just like that? No way. Luna was lost in thought as the crusaders cried their eye's out. Luna was thinking about their military, they could still be around as some type of defence. She also wanted to ask the crusaders about their technology, that seemed to be super advanced. But that would hafto be for another day.
"Hopefully, tomorrow will bring happiness to everypony." Luna whispered, to herself.
soooooon they will be on their knees!
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
Neighsay was inside the castle, inside the meeting room. He had heard that gryphon was involved, 'such filthy creatures!' He thought, to himself. He was thinking how three young fillies even was able to commit such a crime, how in the nine levels of Tartarus were they able to do it? The royale guards keep saying something about weapons they have never seen before, but what was these weapons? He could ask Trixie Lulamoon, but would she know what those things were? After all she just visited the country and he doubted that they would explain how it would work, especially to someone they see as a foreigner. Now when Neighsay thought about it, he remembered a royale guard saying something about a Bás defectors, maybe they would know something about the weapons. He didn't like the idea of talking to a young filly mostly because he saw them as innocent, wich is why he just wants to talk to the adult.
He made his way to the throne room. There wasn't a long line like usual were a snobbish ponies complain about their idiocy. Neighsay walked through the double doors and saw Celestia sitting on her throne. She looked tired but did her best to smile as Neighsay came into her view.
"Chancellor Neighsay, what can I do for you?" Celestia asked, completely exhausted from today's work.
"Princess, I was hoping to talk to the defectors of Bás. The names are Derpy Hooves Or Doo? I was curious about the weapons they use." Neighsay said, with worry but also curiosity.
"Well, I guess I shouldn't hold you back, but I think you want to talk to ms Hooves child. She is the one who still went to school and was thought everything about weapons." Celestia said, looking at a dumbstruck Neighsay.
Neighsay was surprised at this, sure he did have a thought that maybe he should talk to the child, but he didn't want to have to scare her because of the horrible memories. Celestia caught the concerned look from him and smiled, she loved to see other ponies care for other ponies.
"Where are they? Or rather wich hotel?" Neighsay asked, still lost in thought.
"It's right across the street." Celestia said, with a hint of sorrow.
Neighsay nodded and walked out of the castle. He immidiently saw the hotel, he walked into the lobby, and was greeted with an beautiful sight. The reception was made out of the finest wood there was, the ceiling was beautifully decorated with painted roses and a crystal lamp. There was a waiting area were there was some chairs and a large sofa.
Neighsay walked up to the receptionist and asked if there was a Derpy Hooves or Doo. The receptionist said that they were in room two hundred and thirty four. Neighsay nodded and took the stairs. When he was on the third floor he walked around looking for the right room. Eventually he found it and knocked on the door. A grey Pegasus pony with blonde mane and tail answered, her eye's weren't facing him, but he didn't want to be rude.
"Hello miss Hooves, or is it Doo?" Neighsay asked, not wanting to name her wrong.
"For me it's Hooves, but for my daughter it's Doo." Derpy said, with a hint of gratefulness.
Derpy without another question stepped aside and let Neighsay in. The room was interestingly big, almost as an house except no staircase. A little grey Pegasus filly with a blonde main and tail was sitting on the couch in the living room, starring into space.
"Um, sir I never got you're name." Derpy said, shyly.
"Oh, my sincerest apologies, my name is Neighsay, I'm a chancellor. I have recently been working on the coup that happened in Ponyville. I hope that by the questions that I have, that maybe we can regain Ponyville." Neighsay explained.
Derpy looked just a bit uncomfortable, but nodded. She sat down on the couch and Neighsay sat on a chair the opposite way from her so they looked at each other, or Neighsay did.
"So, how does those weapons work? I keep hearing from the royale guards that it's weapons they have never seen before." Neighsay asked, curious himself, if the royale guards didn't know what kind of weapon it was then it was serious business.
"They are assault rifles, there is no magic in play at all. They use mettal bullets to hurt other ponies, from what I heard they stole them from another dimension, and the same goes for the cars and other things they brought over." Dinky said, surprising both Neighsay and Derpy.
"No magic in play? Are you absolutely sure?" Neighsay asked, hoping to be able to create some spell.
"Not that I know of, they didn't say it in military school, but then again they didn't go into much detail of how it exactly worked." Dinky said, without emotion.
Neighsay was lost in thought. If spells wasn't in play at all, then this was very very bad. At the same time it was good to know that it was mettal that they shoot at the royale guards with.
"Thank you for answering my questions. I will leave you two be." Neighsay said, sincerely
The two nodded and Neighsay welcomed himself out, he walked out from the hotel and walked back to the castle, to his surprise he saw several royale guards celebrating something. He rushed to princess Celestias throne room. He burst through the two large doors and was panting heavily.
"Princess, wha... What are they celebrating out there? Is the war over?" Neighsay asked, out of breath.
"It is more than that Neighsay," Celestia said, "Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo has given us Ponyville and they are on their way here to Canterlot to sign a peace treaty." Celestia explained.
Neighsay was shocked, why would they just give up? Was there a reason? But Neighsay didn't care Bás has finally fallen.
Bás - the citizens
After the people of Bás heard that they were gonna be united with Equestria again, they ponies there couldn't be happier. The main six were discussing the outcome, they didn't know what was gonna happen to the CMC but they hoped for them to have a good life. Rainbow Dash no longer had her criminal records because ninety percent of them were not even justified.
Spike, Pipsquek, Rumble, and Twistin couldn't be happier. After so long they were finally gonna be united with Equestria. They felt happy.
Bás has fallen
The Dictators of Ponyville 2 The War
6 months later
over six months has passed, since the declaration of peace. Bás was no more. The CMC had gotten of, but not lightly. The ponies of Ponyville didn't forgive them immidiently, but after a few weeks and thinking it over, they had forgiven them then. The Cutie Mark Crusaders military still existed. They are now working as Equestria's last line of defence with the crusaders as their leaders. The crusaders had gotten a mentor, wich was princess Luna. She wanted to continue helping them from the path of evil, and it seemed to work. Luna actually got really fond of them. Granny Smith wasn't happy with Applebloom because of the killing of her brother, but she blamed Applejack for it. Applebloom got some of her gryphon's and pony soldiers to help wich was appreciated by Applejack. The main six apologised to the crusaders for what they did, and the crusaders could tell that they were sincere.
Princess Celestia was impressed by the technology that the CMC used, so she asked them how and where they got it from. Now Equestria is turning more advanced and the crusaders are becoming rich. Rainbow Dash immidiently apologised to Scootaloo as if her life depended on it. Scootaloo accepted the apology and apologised herself. Rarity felt uncomfortable around Sweetie Belle, even tho, Rarity apologised. Rarity couldn't help but sense anger, or maybe the anger was on herself?
The ponies who lived in poverty were given bits and a free apartment. The ponies were once again happy and talkative. Lyra and BonBon reopened the candy shop, much to the happiness of the fillies and colts. Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo had stopped at the candy shop wich surprised them. The crusaders gave them cop bages and told them that they were great police officers, and the best because they were the only ones that weren't corrupt. Lyra and BonBon were actually in tears, mostly because it ment a lot.
Bás was renamed to Ponyville again. Even tho that most ponies are happy, there are some ponies that want The Cutie Mark Crusaders tyranny rule again. No one knew why but they wanted it.
The school was remade into a normal school, but fancier after a fifty thousand bit donation, was sent by the crusaders. Me cheerilee was shocked but was in tears, when she heard them say that she was the best teacher even when they ruled Ponyville, she still continued teaching.
Diamond Tiara was dead, she had been publicly hanged. Filthy Rich wasn't angry at the crusaders but he wasn't happy either. They had killed her daughter publicly in front of everyone, even young fillies and colts. The crusader had payed for the funeral, wich greatly surprised everypony. Spoiled Rich had been in a labour camp after saying insults to a gryphon soldier, the soldier had put her into the camp and then she disappeared, not even the crusaders knows where she is.
Derpy Hooves and Dinky Doo, had returned to Ponyville and was greeted by everypony. The crusaders welcomed them back also, they told them that they were ashamed for what they did, and as a beginning of an redemption road for them, the crusaders had ordered their soldiers to rebuild their mansion and make it bigger. Derpy and Dinky were surprised by the gesture. They thanked them and hugged them, wich the crusaders were caught of guard by.
Zecora had apologised to them and filed them that she felt ashamed. The crusaders told her that she shouldn't be and said, that they literally started a war and committed war crimes. Zecora didn't have a comeback to that.
Spike was apologising every time he saw them, saying he shouldn't have said anything harsh, and that they had the right to hate them. They told him that it was the opposite way around. He had just looked at them and smiled.
The Cutie Mark Crusaders had created an army base outside Ponyville, were they trained and built their weapons. The crusaders being their leaders, everyday after school drove all the way there and worked. The soldiers had built apartments within the base and lived there, for the pony dragon or gryphon, who preferred it that way.
The royale guards had gotten information on how to build weapons and cars, wich revolutionised Equestria. Celestia was impressed with the cars, and approved of them immidiently.
Everything was looking good.
un beknown to anypony, there was something in the Everfree Forest looking at them with white eye's.
"Soon there will be nothing but darkness." The pony of shadows said.
Author's Note
Hello everypony!
I sincerely hope you have enjoyed this book, and I have a question for you;
Do you want a sequel or do you want me to leave this be?
