Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Twilight was alone in a bathroom as she looked over a sink full of cold water. She took a deep breath before washing her face and looked at herself in the mirror. "Okay…you've managed to get everypony in Ponyville out, captured some caribou, now comes the very difficult part." She said to herself before she heard a knock at the door. "Who is it?!"

"It's me, Flash!" She heard him respond. "You better get out here because things are not looking good!"

“What do you mean?" She asked after stepping out of the bathroom and following him down a hallway. "Did something happen?” They soon reached the throne room where she could hear every female pony, griffon, Diamond Dogs and dragons, some of them having makeshift clothes, having a bit of large arguments with the males as one of the stallions had a black eye. "Yeah, that's bad…"

"Stay away from me, you fucking pig!!!" A mare shouted at the stallion with a black eye as a bunch of changelings held her back.

"I swear, I wasn't going to hurt you!" The stallion said in defense while rubbing his eye.

"How long was this going on for?" Twilight asked the others with concern.

"Not long…just almost…an hour…" Starlight replied sheepishly. “We tried to calm this down but they won't listen."

“Maybe I can help and then get back to business.” Filthy Rich chimed in.

"Oh, don't even think about listening to a bastard like him!" Spoiled Rich said with a humfp.

"Honey--"

"Don't 'honey' me, you monster!" Spoiled shouted before slapping him in the face. "You really think I'm just going to forgive you after everything you put me and our daughter through, even after you had supposedly gotten that spell removed?"

"But he does have that spell out of them, every stallion in here does." Flash pointed out.

"How can you be sure of that?" Spoiled questions with a brow.

"It's just a feeling, right?" Flash asked Soarin, who nodded in response before the yelling in the room got louder. "Okay, we should really get this under control before it gets out of hand."

Twilight was feeling like a kid in a dark corner, unsure what to say to everyone. The longer it dragged on the more heated it became. Just before things got worse, two familiar faces entered the room. It was Nightmare Moon and Chrysalis, the two mares no one wanted to see again. Everyone was paralyzed with fear and confusion. As soon as they headed towards the middle of the room, Nightmare spoke first with a confident yet firm tone. "We understand your mistrust in each other, but this is no time to be bickering!"

"Right now, we want to know who is going to help us fight and who is going to stay here and continue to bicker over something this ridiculous!" Chrysalis spoke next.

"Yeah right, why would we work for either of you?!" A mare shouted with a look on her face. "You both are enemies to Equestria, one of you banished your own sister while the other invaded Canterlot! You're probably going to use us just to Equestria and then enslave us!"

"No, that's not true!" Twilight quickly spoke up. "They helped us take back Ponyville, granted the town was burned down, but it was the residence that mattered most! They're here to help us free Equestria from its enslavement!"

"Yeah like we're gonna trust you, princess of betrayal!" Another mare called out, which made Twilight flinch. "You run out and surrender yourself to those bastards without even putting up a fight! Not only that, but two of your friends easily became red collars before that!" Twilight then looked at Fluttershy and Rarity, who both looked down in shame at the mention of that before Flash quickly pulled her aside when a rock was thrown at her.

“She didn’t betray no pony.” Flash defended Twilight. “As it turns out, no pony had betrayed any of us. It was all the influence of that ‘Crystal Cock’ those caribou modified the Crystal Empire’s Heart. Dainn’s the one at fault, not Twilight or Rarity or anypony. And if you think for a minute that we ponies would betray our own, then you are blind like those that willingly gave themselves to our real enemy. So answer me this: Are we just going to keep dividing ourselves through hate and let those deermen win? Or will you pick yourselves up and use your fury towards our real enemy that made this happen?”

"Fuck you!" A mare called out as all the other females started shouting at the males again, which ended up going into a full-blown argument.

"Looks like they're still pretty mad and not in the mood to talk." Sunburst mentioned nervously.

"What are we gonna--" Trixie was going to ask before suddenly everything went silent. Everyone in the room looked at each other with confusion as not even a single sound of a pen dropping on the floor could be heard. Pinkie Pie even pulled out a bull horn from her mane and yelled into it only for nothing to be heard.

"If none of you have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all!" An unfamiliar distorted voice called out before they saw a familiar cloaked figure walking into the middle of the room. "I mean, honestly, you're acting like they took away your arms and legs. Would all of you rather go back being slaves to Dainn? Because Flash Sentry was right about him being at fault here." Everyone looked at the cloaked figure with confusion as Flash, Chrysalis, and Nightmare Moon recognized the cloaked figure. "Now, before we go at each other's throats again, I just need to make sure that I have your full attention."

The cloaked figure then suddenly appeared next to Twilight, which caused her to jump in surprise when she saw the figure. "Okay, let's start by seeing who's here." The cloaked figure then snapped its fingers to make all the fillies and colts levitate in the air which surprised most of the adults. Applejack tried to ask what the cloaked figure was doing when she saw her little sister Apple Bloom, but quickly remembered that none of them couldn't make a sound. But when the cloaked figure snapped its fingers again, every filly and colt soon turned into balls of light before vanishing much to everyone's shock. "There we go, now for other business at hand."

What have you done with those children?!” Rarity demanded in her mind."Including my little sister!" The cloaked figure then pulled Twilight close before tapping a finger to her forehead. Twilight then had a shocked look on her face as she stumbled back and held her head.

"Remember something important?" The cloaked figure asked Twilight as she was making magical swirls in her hands.

"Those…those were copies…" Twilight breathed out all of the sudden while everyone saw clouds of magic swirling above them. They then saw Twilight in her library within the clouds as they saw the cloaked figure approach her. "This was long before Ponyville was attacked by the caribou and we had to move every filly and colt somewhere deep in the Everfree Forest. But she approached me and told me that the Caribou would just hunt them down and find every single one of them." The imagery in the clouds then changed to Twilight and the cloaked figure with every youngling from across the land near a familiar pond. “That's when she helped me gather every child in Equestria and replace them with magical copies… I then erased my own memory of doing it so I wouldn't tell the caribou…"

The cloaked figure then snapped her fingers as she looked over the crowd. "Do you still believe Twilight is a rotten no good alicorn princess?" She asked them.

"But if they were just copies, where are the real ones?" A female dragon asked from within the crowd. The cloaked figure then pointed up as the clouds showed every youngling from across the land sleeping within crystals.

"You see, the children of every creature are fast asleep, those special crystals give them the nutrients they need to live while keeping them in a nice little dream." The cloaked figure explained with a calm tone. “This way, the children will stay safe while we adults fight on without worrying about them.”

"But…who exactly are you and why are you helping us?” Rainbow questioned the cloaked figure. A slight chuckle was heard from the cloaked figure before she removed the hood and every pony in the room let out a shock gasp when they saw a red mane, white unicorn mare before they saw wings coming out from her back.

“Faust.” Twilight whispered out loud before she and everyone else bowed in respect for the mother of the alicorn sisters and all ponies.

"Who?" Ember asked with a brow as she, Smolder, and a few other non-ponies didn't bow and looked at each other with confusion.

“She’s the mother of ponies!” Pinkie chimed in. “And, Celestia and Luna’s mother, like blood related.”

"But why are you here now?" Applejack asked Faust.

"Because I can no longer stand to see my little ponies suffer anymore." She replied with a hurtful tone. "But also I'm here because a certain Caribou God demanded that I handle this considering it's out of his jurisdiction…damn Odin and his pride…"

“Wait a minute, hold the phone.” Rainbow butted in. “You mean to say that the caribou’s god, their god wants us to stop his own worshippers by his word?”

"It was more like I demanded he handle it himself considering it was his people, but he said he had other things to do." Faust said with an eye roll and an annoyed tone. "Honestly, I think he just likes to sit on his ass all day and just watch with his one good eye."

“In other words: This act is ours and ours alone.” Tempest finished for Faust.

"Yes, but I cannot interfere as much, I can only help push you all in the right path." Faust explained before she looked at Nightmare Moon. “Just as I had to bring back my daughter Luna's dark half."

“Oh, that explains everything.” Fluttershy said out loud. “But now that everypony from Ponyville has been liberated, what do we do now?"

"Free the rest of Equestria, what else?" Faust said with a brow. "One by one, you must free other residents of Equestria, as well as the dragons, Griffons, and other creatures that have been enslaved by the caribou. While also giving their king a bit of fright. You see, I'm giving him a chance to surrender and return the land back to its rightful owners after giving him a warning and a few Omens to look out for."

“Don’t be ridiculous. Dainn will never surrender, even with his back against the wall.” Chrysalis pointed out.

“He’s worse than the storm king, and I knew ‘him’ before I met all of you." Tempest mentioned.

"And what kind of ultimatum did you give them?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"Not ultimatum, Pinkie, Omens." Twilight corrected. “What’s bound to happen, can happen, and will happen. But what are the omens that you told him about?" She asked Faust.

“Well, one of these omens I told Dainn was that a rose would unleash its rage…" Faust started before she glanced at Rose a bit before smiling. “But another one was that a town founded by apples would be engulfed in golden flames."

“Sweet Apple Acres!” Applejack gasp with realization. "My granny and family founded Ponyville… and we just had it set on fire last night."

“That is correct my dear. But there's more and for a reason, I cannot tell you the rest.” Faust mentioned with a small smile. "But I can help you make this a suitable fortress." She then just lifted her hand and gave it a small wave before the ruins of the castle started to rebuild itself.

Everyone was amazed as the castle started to look as new as the stones that once builded were back in their rightful place and the tapestry was restored. Most of them moved out of the way when the pieces flew by them before being restored into the walls.

“Alright, I guess this could work.” Lyra said while looking around.

“But we need to stay hidden, remember?” Bon Bon reminded her friend.

“Relax, I put a very special spell on the castle to make it look like it's still in ruins." Faust explain. “No pony or Caribou will ever think to come looking for you here or disturb the tree."

"What tree?" Shine asked her.

"I think she means the Tree of Harmony." Twilight spoke up before realization struck both her and her friends. “How do I suddenly remember it after I forgot about it?"

"Same here." Rainbow mentioned with confusion.

"I guess all of us do too." Applejack said while gesturing to Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie.

“That’s because of the spell given off by what the caribou did to the Crystal Heart. The tree had to protect itself and the Elements of Harmony." Faust told them. “What do you think would happen if Dainn knew about it and the box?"

"He would have find a way to make its power his own." Twilight quickly answered with a look.

"As long as those monsters still use the Crystal Cock to influence you, you’ll continue to feel its effects.” Faust told them before looking at Flash and the sword. “That's why I had him look for the sword to free you from its effects.”

“Thank you, your grace." Flash said with a bow. "I will use this to slay my enemies and free everypony."

"Okay, now that you all know about some things, I shall leave you to the rest." Faust said as she was about to walk away before she stopped herself. "Oh one more thing before I go, you may have saw Discord's magic but have any of you actually seen him?" She asked Twilight with a smile. “But anyways…” She then looked at Flash. “Good luck my general, and my little ponies.”

With that, she left while vanishing, leaving everyone in awe. Flash was the only one everyone was looking at right now. “So, you’re in charge now?” Some random pony stallion asked.

“Flash pony in charge now." Dimora spoke up. "If pony don’t like, pony can join rapey caribou again.”

"No, I'm only a soldier.” Flash quickly intervenes. "The ones we should be following are Twilight, her friends, Nightmare Moon, and Chrysalis, because right now they are the only hope that we have to help save our home. So if some of you don't want to fight, stay here and be safe." There was then talking among the crowd before Flash noticed Fluttershy looking very sad for some reason before she left the room. Flash wondered what was bothering her before Twilight stepped up.

"Everyone, we know you all are scared, and I'm not going to lie, I am too.” Twilight told the crowd. "But Flash is right, we can't just rely on him, we have to rely on each other. The Caribou thinks if we're divided and at each other's throats, they win, but we're going to prove them wrong that we stay together no matter what. And I know that some of the creatures don't exactly like us ponies, but I bet you hate the caribou even more right now."

"You got that right." Smolder muttered with a brow.

“As long as we don’t have to have dicks in our mouths, then I accept.” A random female griffon said with utmost dignity.

"But we need each other if we're going to stop them, take back everything they took, and show the Magic of Friendship!" Twilight declared with confidence. "Who will join us?!"

Every creature pony or otherwise erupted in cheer of approval. The resistance has been created. "Nice one, Twi." Applejack complemented with a proud smile. "So what now?"

"We interrogate the caribou that we have locked up in the makeshift dungeon.” Twilight quickly answered before looking at Nightmare Moon. "Do you think you can handle them?"

"Back in my day, I was known as the master of interrogation." Nightmare Moon mentioned with a grin. "When I'm done with them, they'll be begging for mercy."

“Well, don't damage them too much. We need accurate info on Dainn’s forces, his outposts, his generals, everything.” Flash inputted his words.

"I'll help her with the interrogation." Tempest stepped up. “I ‘was’ the storm king’s commander. So, I too have my methods. We're gonna start with Lockjaw first.”

"The rest of us will see how we can get these ponies and other creatures fighting ready." Rainbow added. "We'll get these guys into shape!"

"Right, Twilight if you don’t mind. I want a word with you in private.” Flash said which Twilight agreed to do. They let the others do their new tasks. Flash and Twilight were now alone before he kissed her right away as Twilight quickly returned it in a passion. “I missed you, Twilight.”

“I missed you too, my sentry.” Twilight replied with a sweet smile before it became a sad look. "But I don't think anyone will ever forgive me for what I have done, spell or not.”

“Now Twilight, we’ve just been through this. It was nopony’s fault, the caribou simply deceived us, deceived us all." Flash reminded her. "Heck, they even fooled Rarity, and she blamed herself for causing all of this. And now we know, it was their fault even before the fall. They struck when we were at our weakest, and our pacifism and our kindness led them right into the heart of our country. Corrupting it with their sick ideals.”

"But still, they made me do so many terrible things to so many innocent mares." Twilight mentioned before Flash gently placed a hand on her cheek.

“Be that as it may, we can’t let that stop us." He told her with a comforting tone. "Cause that’s what Dainn wants, to make us doubt and forget. Forget who we are, our strengths, and our pride. Make no mistake, Twilight, I won’t stop until every stallion and mare is free, including other races that suffered by their hands. But most of all… I will see Dainn’s world crumble just as he did to our own world. I will take everything he owns. His slaves, his trophies, his zealots, and his very life. I swear on my dead mother’s name I’ll kill the bastard that raped and murdered our history of our once beautiful world.”

"Okay, just promise me you won't lose yourself." Twilight replied with a small smile.

“I promise, I will not give in too deep in revenge.” He said with a sigh. “But as of now, we need it to fight.”

"Most of us still have some recovering to do." She mentioned. "Like Fluttershy, I believe she needs help more than anyone."

"I did see her run off earlier.” Flash mentioned before they both nodded. "Let's go find and check on her." So the two ponies went off to search for the pegasus in question as everyone was doing their own thing somewhere in the castle.


In a room with only a lantern when a corner of the room lit, Lockjaw sat in a chair while Tempest sat across from him and Nightmare Moon stood next to her with her arms crossed. "So Lockjaw, we can do this the easy way or the hard way, I suggest you do it easy and answer our questions." Tempest told him with a straight look but he kept quiet.

“Not talking, eh?” As Tempest put her combat boot to his dick, causing him to squirm in pain. “I may be a mare, but I’ve been trained to do more harm in my previous job. So start talking!”

"Kick me all you want, it won't change your fate!" Lockjaw grunted with a glare. "You can't win. You may have beaten me and my men, and I don't know how you broke the spell on those simple-minded stallions, but you won't be able to do the same to all of the land. It is ours, and that Sun ass of a bitch is already a red collar, so there's nothing to save!"

"Very well, I was willing to do it Tempest's way but that remark was the last straw for me.” Nightmare Moon spoke up before her horn lit up in her magical aura and a strange metal box appeared in her hand. "Did you know that we once resorted to extreme torturing methods on attackers that attack our land many moons ago? This one is my personal favorite, the box."

"Oh, I'm so scared of a dumb box, dumb ass bitch." Lockjaw retorted with a slight chuckle before he was hoisted up in the air by Nightmare Moon's magic and jumper cables suddenly attached to the box.

"I guess a demonstration on what this little box does is in order." Nightmare Moon then removed his pants before taking the other ends of the jumper cables. "You see, we take each end of these clips and replace them right on your ball sack." She told him before she put the other ends of the jumper cables right on his balls. "Now, will you tell us what we want to know or do we have to make you scream?"

"Oh please, you're just bluff-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Lockjaw screamed when he felt his balls get electrocuted when Nightmare Moon pressed the button on the box. "The fuck was that?!?!"

"That was the first setting of the box." She replied with a grin. "Everytime you don't answer a question of ours, the settings will be turned up each knot until…well, I'll leave that as a surprise."

"Nice." Tempest complimented with a brow before looking at Lockjaw. "So, how many hidden caribou settlements are in Equestria?"

“I-...won’t…tell-AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!” Lockjaw screamed louder as the pain he felt was doubled.

"Wrong answer, try again." Nightmare Moon advised. “How…Many?” She asked while both of them staring daggers in his eyes.

"A-About…s-seven…with including…your settlements too." Lockjaw answered.

"Now was that really so hard?" Tempest asked rhetorically. "That's one question answered, many more to go. Tell us, how did you caribou manage to corrupt the Crystal Heart and its magic?"

“Ah…Our…our…priests…carry the knowledge of…rune magic…to control and corrupt others and their magics.” Lockjaw told them.

"But you didn't only change it first, you had to study it.” Nightmare Moon figured. "But I highly doubt that you would be given permission to be near something so valuable to study how to change it without shattering it. You had a spy or two to get you a small piece of it, am I correct?"

"I…I won't say!" Lockjaw shouted before he screamed in pain even louder than before as electricity was three times as worse than before. "Okay, okay! We had only one spy, one of our own when we first arrived in Equestria. The ponies including the rulers of the Crystal Empire shared its existence with him. But we had somepony else retrieve a shard of it for us."

"Who were they?" Tempest questioned.

"Fleur, one of them was Fleur." They heard a familiar voice answer before they saw Rarity enter the room. "I should know because she brought me with her to the Crystal Empire just so they could give Cadance a very special bottle of Essence, to slowly break her down."

"Y-Yes, one of them was her!" Lockjaw shouted.

Tempest snatched the box away from Nightmare Moon and turned up the dial almost full power. The caribou screamed so loud that the walls echo bounced off as the pain lasted for a minute. “You’re lying!” Tempest yelled. “Ponies would never stoop that low, even self aware mares like Fleur!”

Just as the broken horn mare was getting brutal with her torturing, Lockjaw began to chuckle. “Oh my broken horn mare. Like everyone of you sluts, you became so eager to learn and prosper with our materials. You just believed what you wanted to hear, making you easy prey for our real plan."

"But that's it, it really bothered me for so long as to why both Fleur and her husband, Fancy Pants, would even dare betray their own kind just to help you." Rarity mentioned with a brow. "But after the fall, I realized they didn't do it of their own accord. They are the most loyal ponies I have ever known, and the kindest as well. They would never do something so low as to betray us, unless of course someone from the inside of our own would use a little mind control spell to do so. Am I right?"

“Oh wow, how did you figure that one out?" Lockjaw asked sarcastically. "Before or after Shining-Gah!" He grunted when Rarity punched him right in the stomach.

"I believe I said it bothered me before the fall." Rarity mentioned with a brow. "Now, I believe the question you should be answering is who are the traitors that were willingly helping you?"

“Nobody betrayed you. You just fell for our lies-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Lockjaw screamed at the top of his lungs as his balls were almost fried.

"I believe that was a lie you were telling us, so tell us the truth." Nightmare Moon told him with a firm look. "Who…are…they?! Tell us or you will never be able to use your dick ever again."

“OKAY!” He admitted while tears started running down his face. “It was Coal Digger, of Digger inc. Not only him, but a royal guard that goes by the name of Olympus! Says that he sees Equestria was weak, underdeveloped! Believe that he was cheated when Shining Armor married that pink cunt and was given an Empire!” He took a moment to breathe before speaking again. “He worked hard to climb the ranks. After he was promoted to captain after Shining moved, he began to see Equestria was too peaceful and invasion was bound to happen. He tried to talk to the sun slut about it, but like us strong smart males, she dismissed him. Gave him a reason to turn on his own countrymen."

"You mean it gave him a reason to become a complete imbecile.” Nightmare Moon corrected. "The reason why my own sister dismissed his claims is because she believes that the ponies that live in Equestria will be able to protect it, for she believes in all her ponies. And what I have seen from Twilight and her friends, they will be able to save Equestria from any threat. That idiotic fool only did what he feared by doing so, and in doing so, giving us a reason to hunt him down like the animal he is."

“He was right about the invasion, he even tried to warn your sister about it." Lockjaw told her with a grin. "It’s your own damn fault for being too blind by your precious harmony to see the danger within your own nation.”

"Perhaps if he had more faith in his own kind, this would have never happened." Tempest mentioned with a brow before she looked at both Rarity and Nightmare Moon. All three of them nodded before Nightmare Moon turned the Box all the way to full power. "Now say goodbye to your balls."

"Wait what?! No, wait, I'm sorry!!" Lockjaw shouted in a panic while Nightmare Moon slowly reached for the button. "I never meant what I said, I was joking! Please, I'm begging you!!"

"Then perhaps we could spare you, if you answer every question we have truthfully without any insults to us or to our kind." Nightmare Moon told him as her finger was just above the button. "Do we have an understanding?"


Somewhere in the castle where Fluttershy is seen in a garden, she had her wings wrapped around herself as she was letting out sobs. Flash and Twilight appeared looking around for the butter yellow pegasus until they eventually spotted her.

“Fluttershy!” Twilight said aloud, gaining her friend’s attention as she walked right to her. “What happened?”

“Oh…it’s nothing Twilight.” Fluttershy answered in a sad tone. “Just coping with remembering everything that has happened…”

"And by the looks of the tears running down your cheek, I'm guessing it's not going well.” Flash mentioned before he and Twilight sat on both sides of Fluttershy. "Want to talk about it?"

"I…I can't…" Fluttershy replied as she hid herself under her wings. “I-I-I feel so dirty…dirty and so horrible.” She then turned towards Twilight with very sad eyes. “Remember the day the Caribou attacked Canterlot? Before they attacked, I saw something odd and I just thought they were setting up for the festival but I was completely wrong. And I was the first of our friends to turn…" She started to sob again as the memories of what happened flooded her head. "I…I did so m-many awful things to so many mares…and animals… especially towards Celestia… I'm going to be banished when all this is all over and I deserve it…"

“Now don’t say that.” Flash assured her by holding her. “Like Faust said: This was all the caribou’s doing, not yours. They just knew who to pick off, like on a hunt, always going for the weakest.”

"I… I've always been weak… I just turned red and didn't even…" Fluttershy couldn't finish her sentence as she couldn't stop crying. Twilight then pulled her in for a comforting hug as she wrapped her arms around Fluttershy.

"Fluttershy, you're not weak…" Twilight whispered with a comforting tone. "You're strong in your own way. You can tame even the wildest of animals, such like a manticore or a cockatrice.”

“Yeah, but the caribou are worse." Fluttershy weeped. "I became tamed instead of the tamer. My animal friends suffered because I was weak.”

"Stop saying that." Flash spoke up to get her attention. “You got to stop putting yourself down like this, because your friends need you now more than ever. You can help make a difference by acting instead of sulking. Your animals may have suffered, but don’t forget everypony suffered too. You have the power to stop this, only if you fight for it, and if not, then life will truly be gone.” Fluttershy felt her heartbeat as she looked into his eyes when he was telling her all that stuff. She held her cheeks rising while a feeling inside her heart was warming her sadness.

"Flash is right, and I know how you feel Fluttershy." Twilight mentioned. "Me and Rarity both know…we also believe it was our own faults, but it never was. Rarity was tricked into making outfits for them and I did my best but the pressure I was under wasn't helping. Each of us knows how you feel and you don't have to be alone in this.”

Fluttershy thought long and hard of what they were saying, and decided to get up while flexing her wings. “You’re right Twilight. I need to stop feeling guilty and focus on restoring Equestria.” She said before she felt a little shy. "But I don't want to fight…"

"It's okay, maybe you can help with the medical stuff.” Flash suggested while gently patting her back. "And maybe get some of your other animal friends to help out. Mainly sending birds to scout out enemies and deliver messages by paper. And if you're too scared to sleep alone, I'm pretty sure Twilight wouldn't mind if you will sleep with us.”

"Yeah, he started a harem with Rarity, Chrysalis, a few mares we know, two griffons and a Diamond dog, so they are all sleeping with us and we have a big enough bed for us." Twilight mentioned with a small grin.

“Well…if you insist. I guess I could.” The butter yellow pegasus said as Flash and Twilight escorted her. "Y-You sure you won't mind?"

"Yeah, we don't mind at all." Twilight assured her before they heard loud grunting coming from the courtyard. They made it to a window and saw Applejack, who is seen with a female dragon with big breasts that seemed to be nearly E-cup size while the dragon had dark blue scales on her body while her stomach had a chartreuse shade. They saw the dragon pounds right onto Applejack as they seemed to be fighting. "That's not good."

"You two go, I'm going to see what they're doing." Flash told Twilight and Fluttershy before he made his way towards the courtyard.


Out in the courtyard, Applejack managed to push the dragon back as she wiped her mouth and straightened her hat when she got back up. “Y'all are a very stubborn dragon, ya know that?”

“Same to you, ya blond maned mule.” The dragoness shot back while flexing, unfazed by the earth pony’s push. “You may be strong, but I’m stronger. Dragons are and still is stronger than any race of this world!”

The two females charged at each other ready to attack, but Flash landed in front of the two four feet from him on both sides saying: “Hold it!” Making them stop instantly. "What's going on here?! Why are you fighting each other?"

"Relax pony, we were just doing a little rough housing." The dragon mentioned with an eye roll and a hand on her hip.

“Oh horse feathers!” Applejack exclaimed angrily. “This dragoness here is making trouble by spreading false rumors ‘bout yer leadership in our rebellion and I was stopping her before she did harm to our morale.”

“Ha! To think ‘you’ were called the Element of Honesty when you can’t tell a proper lie about me.” The dragoness shot back. “And if anyone that is telling the truth, it’s me. Besides, I saw you play with yourself before at night when I was that red pony's pet, so if anything you've been lying to yourself!”

Applejack snarled, readying herself to punch the dragoness into next year. However Flash once again stopped the blond earth pony. “Look, uh…” He tried to say.

“Waterfall. My name is Waterfall, remember it well.” The dragoness answered while looking at the stallion.

“Right. Listen, Waterfall. We are in a very delicate situation right now. I know you have your differences with us, but we need to put aside all that." He told her with a straight face. "If we don’t stand united, we’ll definitely fall to the caribou.”

“Dragons like us don’t need you ponies, let alone other races." Waterfall replied with her arms crossed under her breasts. "Caribou are weak compared to us, and yet you are automatically in charge cause your mother goddess says so.”

"Look, I get that you think you're strong, but they got the upper hand over you dragons because they outsmart you." Flash told her firmly. "How else do you think they captured so many of you?"

“Bah! They only got lucky. But now I can fight on even grounds with them.” Waterfall told them as she cracked her knuckles.

"No you can't." They heard Ember called out before they saw her walking up to Waterfall. "You really think a single dragon can stand a chance against a bunch of multi-horned freaks that want to take advantage of you? News flash: They can easily subdue you with just those weird symbol things they can make."

"She ain't wrong." Applejack spoke up with a brow. "Them varmints are clever. They easily planned the attack on Canterlot during a Spring Festival you were having, they even had the changelings by their sides. Plus they managed to capture the lot of you."

“They’re both right." Flash spoke next. “Don’t forget, they outnumbered you as well as made a deal with your leader that he also was tricked into selling you and his only daughter. I get it, you have your pride, but remember. They took it from us, from you, from our land itself. We need to work together regardless of our pride, and fight for a common cause. For everypony’s sake, please put aside your pride and work with us.” He offered up a handshake. "It doesn't take one to beat all, sometimes we just need help."

Waterfall thought about what he had said. Though every fiber of her being wants to reject it, but she knew in her heart he was right. So she put on a neutral look and breathed a heavy sigh. “Very well Flash Sentry…” She extended her claws and took his hand. “I’m with you, general.” She then suddenly pulled him close and whispered something in his ear. "But thanks to those bastards and some weird drug they injected me with, I am horny and in heat. That means I'm going to have you, whether you like it or not."

"Okay, but you're going to have to apologize to Applejack for something that's between you two." Flash replied before they pulled back and Waterfall went over to Applejack.

“Listen, Applejack, I want to say sorry about before and all that stuff I said about your brother.” She told her. "You know I had my reasons after what he did when he took me in as a pet."

“No worries sugarcube.” Applejack said. “In truth, my brother is one of the sweetest, kindest stallions you would’ve met. Sadly though, he was corrupted by those caribou and we Apples always look after our own family, even strangers.” She then rubbed her arm nervously with a sad look. "Which is why I can't be around him at this point, I'm still having a bit of trust issues."

Flash saw this and couldn't help but feel sorry for her before he looked at the two female dragons. "Could you both give us a minute?" He asked them. "I think this is a pony business, you understand."

"Yea, sure." Ember replied before she and Waterfall started to leave.

"And why don't you both put some clothes on, while you're at it." Applejack told the two butt naked dragons.

"Why? They'll just end up burning up when we sneeze." Waterfall mentioned before she and Ember left.

“For the sake of everypony that has sensitivity about public nudity, please put something on.” Flash begged before looking at Applejack. "So, do you want to talk about your brother? It might help you feel a little better."

"I…I don't know, I still care for him and stuff but…" Applejack trailed off as she looked unsure.

“Please, Applejack.”

"After what happened, he treated me, his own sister, like dirt for so long. I guess I'm a little paranoid when I'm alone." Applejack told him. "I mean, I can't even be near him without being afraid he might do something to me. Don't get me wrong, I know he's free from the spell like the others, but trust is going to be a long way for him to earn." She then sat down on the ground with a sad look. “I don't even know what them Caribou did with my granny after the fall. I wish she was here now."

Flash felt sorry for her and could already tell that some ponies are going to have a hard time trusting each other now. He let out a sigh before getting down next to her. "I understand how you feel." He told her. "I know that after this is over, I'm going to have a very hard time ever trusting Shining Armor and maybe a few other Royal Guards. But I do know that the ones who are free will do what they can to earn that trust back. We may not know what the Caribou did with the elderly after the fall, but I'm pretty sure Faust saved them. And I'm pretty sure that your brother will do anything to make sure nothing happens to you again."

"I hope so, because if I'm being honest, I'm really scared.” Applejack admitted before Flash placed a hand on hers. She looked at Flash as she started to tear up before he wrapped her in a comforting hug.

"It's okay, it's going to be alright." Flash whispered to her. "If you like, you can sleep with me, Twilight, and the others tonight. I'm sure she won't mind.” That now pushed the cowpony mare over. She pushed him away a little, only to kiss him very deeply. Flash was taken back by this before he returned the kiss as they embraced each other. They felt like they were kissing for hours before they broke the kiss to get a breath. "How long…?"

"I guess since Twi first introduced you to me and our friends." Applejack answered. "You helped me with some apple bucking and you never asked for anything in return. Even tried pushing yourself to get more done for me just as I once did. You sure got yourself quite a charm there, partner." They then resumed making out as she let out a soft moan from the kiss. “And I think I found myself a special somepony, and a stud to boot.”

"I did find you very attractive with your muscular legs and everything.” Flash admitted after breaking the kiss again. "Twilight even admitted a little that she thought your legs were hot too."

“I’ll pretend you didn’t say that. But if you think my legs are strong, just wait till you see my arms in action." Applejack said with a small grin before she whispered something in his ear. "I might show ya how a cowpony rides a cock when she's a rodeo champion tonight~." This caused Flash to stutter in fright. The thought of Applejack crushing his pelvis is too much to bear. However, the cowpony mare playfully punched him in the arm. “Ha, ha, ha, ha! Just kidding sugarcube, I promise to let you have a chance. Afterall, what’s fun about sex if you’re the only one doing the work?” She then stood up and looked at him with a smile. "Still, it might be fun, especially if there's more in our group. See ya later, sugarcube~." She gave him a playful wink before she began to leave and Flash got a good view of her thick ass. “And you're going to see a lot more of this tonight, by the way~."

Flash blushed a little when she mentioned that before he stood up and smiled a little. "Hope I can endure all of them…" He said it to himself before he began to walk away, only to bump into Pinkie Pie. "Oh sorry, I didn't…" He trailed off when he realized something. "How much did you see?"

“Oh, nothing. I only just showed up, Flashy.” Pinkie said with a grin. But her expression changed to a weird look. “Though after the last chapter, I had my sick kicks out of killing caribou. Although, I also had fun having sex with others, but it wasn't very much fun when they were having fake smiles on their faces and I just ended up hurting them.” Flash had no clue what she was talking about before she grabbed his face and pulled him close. “So tonight, I plan on making you smile, with absolute lust for mares like me. I said I rock your world, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do Mr. Stubmaster.”

Flash was very surprised she would even offer that before she suddenly dropped down on her knees and yanked his pants down to reveal his cock. "What are you doing?!" He questioned in shock.

"Just giving you a real quick preview of what I'm going to give you.” She responded as she slowly jerked him off. "You must have been turned on by AJ if you're already hard." She then proceeded to take his cock in your mouth and already suck him off.

“Pinkie! St-op i-t! EErrgghh!” Flash groaned as she was already deepthroating his cock and bobbing her head. “AArrrggghhh! Keep…eghhh…going.” He grabbed her head as she started to suck his cock harder and massaged his balls.

“Hhhhgggmmmmm.” Pinkie moaned while blowing Flash as she breathed in his crotch, enjoying his scent. Her fingers were already digging into her own pussy as she was enjoying his cock.

“You weren’t kidding, Pinks.” Flash said with a groan. “You really are a mare that hungers for dicks… Hgghh... And I’m getting good treatment from you.” Pinkie smiled around his member before she started to move her head very fast as she sucked even harder. “Ooohhh…Celestia…I’m…gonna…uggg.” Pinkie could already feel his member throbbing as she knew what was coming yet didn't stop.

“Raaarrghhhhhhh!” Flash groaned out as he came in Pinkie's throat and she enjoyed the taste of his semen flowing into her mouth. She drank all of his sperm while giving Flash’s cock a kiss.

“You were good, Flashy." She complimented as she stood up. "Your cum tastes salty at first, but with extra sweetness at the end.” She then brought up her soaked fingers before sucking on them for a bit. "Mmm, and you're gonna love tasting this pie tonight. Fluttershy is really in for a treat with you~. In case you didn't know, Fluttershy really likes you like Twilight does."

“Yeah, I’ll bet.” Flash said. Just as he was about to leave, but not yet. “Although, since you pulled my pants down without my permission, you’ll let me do whatever I want later.”

"Seems fair." Pinkie replied with a shrug before giving him a surprise kiss on the lips. “I’ll prepare for whatever sick thing you have for me, Stud Sentry~.” She then bounced away with a very cheerful smile on her face as Flash pulled up his pants and let out a small chuckle.

"Twi was right, she is sometimes way too random.” He muttered before he went to go train with everyone else.


Meanwhile in the library of the castle, Twilight was focused on reading some books as she had a very determined look on her face. "What did she mean…? What did she mean…?" Twilight repeatedly muttered herself as she looked through each book just as Spike came in with a very exhausted look on his face.

"I'll tell ya, Twi, I was not expecting to be in a relationship where two girls want to do it every five minutes or so." Spike mentioned but got no response as he quickly noticed Twilight was deep in her work. "What are you doing?"

“Trying to figure out what Faust meant when she mentioned Discord." Twilight answered after closing a book and opening a new one. "This helps me think."

“Perhaps, I could be of assistance?” A random voice said. Twilight looked to see Starlight Glimmer with reading glasses. "Maybe you need another horn to help out. I don't mean to brag, but I'm very gifted with magic.”

“Well, sure. Needed somepony’s help figuring this out.” Twilight commented. “I’ve been knee deep in trying to figure out what Faust meant. She asked me if I actually saw Discord when the Caribou attacked Canterlot." Twilight was flipping through pages. “I don’t get how Discord fits into this. But I’m sure he plays an important role. Like how he was there before Celestia’s time, including Tirek.”

"Well, maybe if you can tell me more about him, I might be able to help." Starlight asked as she sat down next to Twilight. “What does he like the most?"

"Well, he likes to spread chaos around.” Spike mentioned with a brow. "And by chaos, I mean like Chocolate Rain, clouds made out of cotton candy, making buffalo wear tutus and dancing like ballerinas. There's a lot of things off about the guy, he's just way too random when he spreads chaos everywhere." It then hit Twilight when Spike mentioned that last part.

"Of course!" She exclaimed with realization. "Why didn't I see it before?!"

“What?” Starlight asks. "What is it?"

"Okay, look…" Twilight started before she used her magic to project the day Celestia was defeated and Canterlot fell. "This is the day when it all came down. Celestia was defeated, everypony started to lose faith and give into the spell, but look closely at the hammer Dainn is holding." Both Spike and Starlight looked closely as they saw some sort of odd purple magical Aura coming off the hammer. “What you both are looking at is chaos magic. Now at first, I thought Discord helped them by giving him some of his magic, but that's way too much for even one mortal to handle."

"Yeah, you're right." Starlight replied. "That almost looks like all of it, right?"

"Yup, and another thing that's been bothering me is how Celestia was beaten in the first place." Twilight continued. "One of the theories behind that is because she held back when she fought him, but another way for her to be beaten as if an equal or someone more powerful than her would have done it."

"And the only one is her sister, Luna…" Spike mentioned before he remembered something. “But when Discord was freed, he managed to lower and raise the Sun and Moon all willy-nilly."

"And since both Luna and Celestia don't have their magic considering their horns are chopped off, Dainn is the one controlling the Sun and Moon." Twilight told them. "And we have seen what chaos magic would do and after Discord was freed the first time, he stole the Elements of Harmony and bragged about it right in front of us. So wouldn't he want to appear and start teething Celestia about her defeat? He would, only he didn't show up."

“I think I might guess what happened.” Starlight added. “Dainn tricked Discord somehow, and sealed him in the hammer, right?”

"That's exactly what I'm saying.” Twilight answered. "Discord loves to make random things appear out of thin air, he's not into the whole enslaving and all the sexual stuff. And he definitely wouldn't hurt Fluttershy, considering she's the first friend he has ever made. So, that's how Dainn defeated Celestia. Not with his own power, but with power that he stole and imprisoned in his own hammer."

"And something tells me he can't get out." Spike mentioned.

“Exactly.” Twilight answered. "So, it's up to us to figure out a way to break that hammer and free Discord. The only question is, how are we going to do it?"

"Um, Twilight?" They heard a familiar voice speak up before they saw Rose walking up to Twilight. “I may not know much. But I think you can’t break it, but mold it into something that can be easily destroyed.”

"Thanks, Rose, but what are you doing here?" Twilight asked her before Rose suddenly got on her knees in front of her.

"Please teach me magic!" Rose bagged which surprised the three in the room.

Twilight and the others looked puzzly at each other before returning to her. “Uh, why would you want to learn magic?” She asked Rose.

"I…I want to because of what I had experienced before." Rose replied before looking up at Twilight. "I…I never fought before yet Flash showed me how to fight…I punched Tempest and it hurt my hand but it felt good. It was the first time I felt good without pleasure.”

“And you want to do this because Flash wants you to have freedom of thought?” Starlight asked before Rose shook her head.

"No, he didn't ask me to learn magic." She told them. "I want to learn magic because I want to feel more useful to him in this fight… this war against my own kind. I want to be stronger…"

“Oh, I see.” Twilight said with enlightenment. “Well, I don’t know how, but I could tell you to create magic only you can conjure. But it won’t be easy. So let me ask you, are you willing to fight against your own kind?”

"Uh, she literally just said that a few seconds ago." Spike pointed out with a brow.

"I owe my body to my master, even if he does not like to own others, I would give anything to help him." Rose answered Twilight. "So I am more than willing to turn on my own kind to help because our ways only hurt others."

“Okay, just testing you." Twilight told her before she continued. "With everything that has happened, and what could happen depends on everything we say or do. I just wanted to be sure I can trust you; let alone depend on you if and when Dainn’s fate is in our hands." She then helped Rose stand up before giving her a small smile. "I can already tell that you're on the right path."

“Thank you Princess Twilight.” Rose thanked.

"Please, call me Twilight." She told her before she looked over at Starlight. “And I think I may need a hand on her magic lessons. You don't mind helping me, do you?"

“Not at all. Though I’m still learning about magic in general.” Starlight mentioned as she put away her glasses. “And I’m still patching things up with Sunburst. Speaking of him, where is he?”

"I think I saw him helping everypony find a place to sleep around here." Spike answered. "Without all those booby traps and stuff, this place seems really cozy."

“Oh. And here I thought he was reading secret stuff right now.” Starlight said with a shrug.

"With Ponyville gone, everypony needs help with coping and stuff.” Twilight mentioned before a thought came to her. "I wonder how Dainn is taking this."


Up in Canterlot castle, Dainn sits impatiently on his throne as he waits for some news about Ponyville. Soon some guards entered the throne room as they bowed to him. "Well, did you find anything down there?" He questioned them.

"No my lord, there's no trace of what happened to the residents of Ponyville." One of the guards replied. "There were no hoofprints, no visible traces of magic, no anything but the scorch marks of the symbol that was left that burned the town."

"And Flash Sentry had returned but he said his slaves were taken when he was knocked out." Another guard told him.

“Have him brought to me, NOW!” Dainn ordered them firmly. “And bring me some mead while you’re at it! I’m thirsty.” Both guards left as he waited for them to do what they were ordered. After a few minutes, Fake Flash Sentry entered the room as he walked up and bowed down to Dainn.

“You called my king?” He asked as Dainn stood up from his throne.

"Well, in case you haven't heard, there is a new resistance that just made themselves known in Ponyville before burning it down." Dainn told him as he walked over to the pegasus.

“What?! Geez, you go on a vacation for a couple of days and you miss out on some things.” F.Flash said to himself as he smiled on the inside. "And you probably already guessed that my slaves have been taken. I don't know how it happened to be honest. One moment I was enjoying fucking them, the next something hit me on the head and I blacked out. When I woke up, Ponyville was under attack and I somehow ended up outside of town. So I decided it would be wise to inform you of what happened. Unfortunately, there was some sort of barrier around the town so I couldn't get inside to send you a letter."

"Yes, and I sent some of my men to check it out after the flames died out to see if there was any evidence of what happened, but there wasn't any." Dainn mentioned as he walked up to a window. "A few days ago, a stranger came to me with a warning, telling me if I don't stand down, the Caribou ways will come to an end along with my rule. One of the omens the stranger told me was that Ponyville will be engulfed in flames."

“And this ‘stranger’s’ warning came true? Unbelievable.” F.Flash said with fake disbelief. "Did the stranger say anything else?"

"A few other nonsense, such as the Changelings would unite with this resistance." Dainn told him with a slight chuckle. “But we both know those abominations are extinct so it can't be true." Just then, a caribou guard ran into the throne room with a shocked look on his face.

"Lord Dainn, come quickly!" The guard called out. "The teaching room for cunts is…well, you must see it for yourself!"

“What is the meaning of this intrusion?! Explain yourself!” Dainn demanded.

"Well, I was checking on the trainer for Sunslut and Moonass, only to find him dead!" The guard answered, which shocked Dainn to hear before he quickly raced out of the room with F.Flash and the guard behind him. They ran down the halls until they reached a room before he saw with his own eyes the entire place completely destroyed. The big containers that were filled with War Beast semen were shattered, training equipment completely destroyed beyond repair, and the body of a caribou stag on the floor as he had a hole where his heart should be while Celestia and Luna were in their cages in a corner of the room.

"Mmm, I wonder what took you so long." Celestia mentioned with a brow. “And before you accuse me and my sister of doing all of this, we would like to point out that these cages have magical locks on them so we can't open them ourselves."

“Yeah, I know that. I want to know how my trainer is dead!" Dainn shouted. "And from the looks of things, you two are witnesses to this."

"Kinda hard to know what happened when the room suddenly went dark before all that happened." Luna mentioned with a brow. "But we have heard a bunch of noises in the dark. It sounded like the poor stag was in pain and agony before he died."

"Queen Chrysalis sends her regards." F.Flash said, which got Dainn's attention. "That's what this message says right here on the wall." He points at a wall that has what he just said written on it, in blood.

Dainn was now becoming increasingly afraid. Instead of showing it, he now began ordering defensive measures. "Flash, have your troops on alert. These resistance fighters think they can stop me, they got another thing coming." He then points at Celestia while glaring at the Caribou guard. “And find me every magic user to get that mark on her chest removed so I may place my young in her now!"

This caused Celestia to let out an amused laugh. "Good luck, I've tried every spell and nothing I tried was able to remove it." She told him with a smug tone. "If I couldn't do it, what makes you so sure that you can?"

“I have my ways, Sunslut. You just need to shut up and give birth to my son.” Dainn growled before he and the guard left the room. F.Flash then looked at the two caged sisters before he kneeled down with a smile on his face.

"Want me to pass a message to your student and the resistance?" He asked them with a low tone.

“Don’t joke about that, you traitor." Luna growled at him. "How can we trust somepony that betrayed the guard?”

"He can't exactly betray if he's not a pony, sister.” Celestia mentioned before she gestured to his eyes, which gave off some sort of odd reflection in them. "Tell them good luck and I hope Twilight along with our friends will save us all this time. By the way, you really had that big dunderhead fooled."

“Says the alicorn fooled the first time with our disguise capability.” F.Flash mentioned, which caused Celestia to let out a small chuckle while Luna looked shocked at both of them. "Oh and Luna, Nightmare Moon says hi."

"But how did…?" Luna trailed off in confusion.

"Yeah yeah, Nightmare Moon will see you in your dreams and she'll bring my queen, Twilight and Flash to explain everything." F.Flash told them before he stood up. "For now, keep quiet while I do my work."

“You plan to free us?” Luna questions.

"And give them an excuse for them to hunt down the resistance and slaughter us all?" F.Flash asked rhetorically before pulling out a couple of potion bottles. "Faust told me not to free you because the time is not right, but she did have that zebra make these painkillers so you won't feel any pain through the torture, or even pleasure."

“Oh, I’m relieved to hear they’re alright." Celestia said with relief. "She did visit us on the night she gave him those omens. Now, how long does the potion last?"

“For ten days at least. Now take them before Dainn gets ideas.” He slipped them the bottles as the Two Sisters quickly drank the potion before handing the bottles back to him. "Okay, now I'm gonna see what he has planned and maybe sabotage some things, and don't worry, we're all going to be free soon."

“Thank you. And be safe, whoever you are.” Celestia told him as he nodded and left the room. "Dainn will pay for making our ponies betray one another and his sins."

"So we agreed he's going to be fucked in the end, and not in the way he would like." Luna mentioned as Celestia nodded in agreement. "But sister, who exactly gave you that mark and whose children are you to bear?"

“For one, I can’t tell you everything yet. And two, all I can tell you is that it's the last creature you would expect and he is still alive to this day." Celestia told her sister before looking at a nearby window. "Be safe, Twilight."


Meanwhile, some of the ponies and other creatures were training for taking back the land that was taken as some of them did a few drills and others practiced with wooden weapons. “Okay everypony/creatures keep on swinging!” Rainbow shouted as she coached them through the drills. She then went over to some pegasi and griffons who were doing push-ups with their wings. "Come on! You got those back ladies, do you want to lose them again?!"

“No ma’am!” They instantly replied.

"Then come on, push harder!" Rainbow shouted before she noticed some stallions leaning on the wall as they looked like they were taking a break. "Hey you! What are you doing?!"

“Sorry Ms. Dash, but we grew tired and decided to take five for now." One of them answered. "We’ll get back to it.”

"Okay, but the moment you're done, you're working on how to get the injured out of danger while also covering fire!" Rainbow told them before she looked back at the others' training. Soarin carefully approached her as he had a nervous look on his face.

"Uh, hey RD.” He greeted her but got no response. "Oh come on, are you still mad at me? You can't keep holding a grudge. Flash and Twilight put us on a team together with one of those night guard ponies for the resistance.”

Rainbow wanted to say something, but instead breathed a heavy sigh. “I get it Soarin, I get it. And you’re right, I can’t hold a grudge forever, and need to work with you. I just can’t with you now, I just…I just can’t. So get back to training.” She told him before she flew up to get a better angle at the training. She sees everything going well before she caught eye on that bat pony that followed her, Soarin, and the others when they went to Tartarus to get the sword and was flirting with him. She saw that she was doing it again as the site of it just made a feeling inside of her boil before she felt a hand grab her shoulder and make her jump. "Gah!" She quickly turned to see Twilight hovering next to her. "Don't sneak up on me like that!"

“Sorry, trying to get used to my wings again." Twilight explained. "How’s the training coming along?”

"Going great so far, a few hiccups here and there between the male and females, but we're slowly working it out." Rainbow replied.

"Good, because we all need to be in top gear for what we have planned." Twilight told her with a serious look.

“What plan?” Rainbow asks.

"We're gonna take back Cloudsdale and the skies." Twilight answered.

“What, seriously?!” Rainbow asked in surprise as this was going to be one tough war.


Author's Note

Everything has been set in stone, the resistance is no bigger, and so is Flash's harem I might add. First Ponyville was saved, now you're going to take back the skies very soon.
