A Journey in Steel

by Lusaminia
The arrival of two steel giants, twelve children, and the technology it brings set Equestria on a collision course with invasion. The storm king doesn’t just want the alicorn’s power, but that of the Taranis and the secrets it holds.

After the defeat of General Hax and the Vanargand, the crew of the Taranis were suppose to be able to go home. Instead they found themselves in a land far from home, both the Taranis and it's counterpart having been brought with them. With no way home, the twelve children that saved the country of Gasco are forced to find their way in the land of Equestria. They could at least be assured that the war at home had been ended, and that their families were safe.

That was suppose to be the case, until the Storm King's forces invaded Canterlot with technology and weaponry far beyond what Equestria had. The capital quickly fell, and in an effort to keep the full power of the alicorns out of the hands of the Storm King, Twilight finds herself dragged along with six of the children onto the steel behemoth they had piloted six months earlier. The hope of all of Equestria now lies in these children's paws, and in the terrifying power that only they are allowed to command.


The following is a crossover with Fuga: Melodies of Steel. The fic might be more enjoyable for those who have played the first game to completion, but as Fuga is rather unknown I'll do my best to make it easy for all to read.
