Blue faith

Maud doesn't have a home.

The one she did have was lost when Equestria decided to transform.

Her sisters?

All gone. Scattered among different opinions and heartbreak.

Maud was one of them of course.

Sighing enterally the mare ducks. Allowing a group of ponies on patrol to move past her. From the smell emitting from their breaths, they spent the night drinking.

Maud snorted.

Once the cost was clear the mare moved. She was quick, and silent, Knowing every nook and cranny the place had to offer.

The witch was impressive considering she rarely leaves her home. A place filled with empty boxes and dreams.

She never felt more at home.

Moving from building to building, alleyway to dirty alleyway Maud closes in on her destination. A place in which leftover food was plenty.

The downside?

Hoping that there were any leftovers from ponies trying to survive just like her.

If not she won't blame them. Maud is many things, but she's far from a pony that's willing to hold a grudge. No, she'll be disappointed but the time will come when luck will return to her side.

Maud paused, ears twitching.

She hears something.

Something big.

Her ears twitch again,

And it wasn't alone.

Maud hides. Dipping behind a garbage can with her breath held tightly inside her chest. Whatever it was she didn't want to risk getting exposed. Then again if it was someone like her she had little problem sharing her finders with a pony that might need it more.

However what she saw instead left her speechless.

Human.

She was seeing a human,

And not only that but two ponies were trailing behind him. Their eyes darted around as if they expected something or some pony to come out and attack them outright.

Fortunately, no attack came. Instead, they were met with a curious mare who was suddenly interested in what they were doing.

Especially with a human close by.

However, Maud didn't want to reveal herself yet. Doing so might spook them and cause problems that might lead to a very unfortunate situation.

No, instead the mare chooses to follow them from a distance. Once they were in an area of safety then she might reveal herself to them. Until then it was best to play it safe.

That's something Maud was good at.

At least that's what her sister use to say.

Blood.

The streets were filled with blood.

It was day 12 of the invasion and already dead
human bodies can be seen everywhere,

And I do mean everywhere.

At this point, humanity became its own worse enemy.

People did what they did best.

They began to turn on one another.

Friends, family, it didn't matter. Not when the only thing people cared about was survival.

The government itself lasted longer than originally anticipated. However, even with this in mind, they could do little when it came to magic and the sheer number of ponies thrown at them. Hundreds if not thousands were killed but they just kept coming. A few soldiers reported a majority of them even looked the same. Of course, whether it was true or not did little to help. In the end, the government was forced to its knees after two whole years of fighting.

Thoughts of nuclear winter came, but surprisingly nothing happened

To this day the question of why was never answered

There were no offers of peace or a reason given at any point during the war. Instead, humanity was met by an invasion of colorful horses that could use magic.

That was all that they were ever given.

Of course, some used regions as a way of explanation, but when no one saw the biblical quote that referenced ponies as carriers of the end times they lost interest.

The smarter ones at least.

Scientists were no better. They had theories, but all of them mounted to wanting nothing more than resources. However, they had trouble pointing out one thing in particular. Mostly because the ponies that were seen only appeared to kill and not to gather. Appearing to be at least to their enemies nothing more than bloodthirsty demons.

However, at that point, it was already too late.

The world fell. Bringing the majority of humanity as well as their government along with it. Those who survived were few and far between. Being unable to fight those that we're left with simply went into hiding. Doomed to walk the Earth knowing that they are a semblance of a dying race. A small dying picture that only hints at how great their people once were.

Now?

Now their nothing more than animals that are constantly being hunted down. All for the sick amusement of their so-called queen.

However when one story ends another begins.

Humanity may be gone, but there is a chance to fight back and reclaim planet Earth. If not then those left behind can leave a mark that can never be forgotten. One that seeps into this world's history like a bug crawling through your shirt.

The war was over that munch is true,

But the aftermath has yet to rear its ugly head.

When it does you can believe that it will be something you don't want to miss.

Not when it includes those who thought they could simply take over the planet without any everlasting consequences.

Now that's a world that you can only dream of.
