Chapter 18 The Battle For Canterlot

Location : Miles outside of Canterlot

Alpha Base camp

Captain Applejack's group had just landed on the grassy planes outside of Canterlot .

She looked into the distance and saw the glistening castle of Canterlot , thankfully she and every pony was cloaked .

"Alright y'all get Alpha base camp setup , we need to make sure everything is setup" said Applejack . The construction pony's got right to it , taking out the materials and building the basic tent but making also sure that it was in the shade .

Baltimare , Equestrtia

Dark Tide , Prince Shadow , and Rainbow Blitz arrived and stepped off and headed towards the air force base , there squadron pilots were waiting .

"Alright pony's and human , as you all know we have orders to link up with the army miles outside of Canterlot , but when we are called into action we are going to do what we do best" said Prince Shadow .

Dark Tide and Rainbow Blitz nodded , a new pony however was able to meet them his name is Shadow Knight .

"I'm Shadow Knight as I am going to be leading the Nightmare Paladins" said Shadow Knight . "And your rank Shadow Knight ?" asked Prince Shadow .

"Well I'm at the rank of Captain" . "Fair enough , now then to business , we are under orders to wait until the entire army is set up with troops and tanks , only then do we make our move and surprise the the Solar Empire , this is our final battle with them" . "Right , well soon you'll see what my squadron can do" said Captain Shadow Knight .

Alpha Base camp

With Captain Applejack

Captain Applejack and her entire army , was still cloaked getting everything set up , that's when she saw the shield go up.

Well ah'll be , this is going to be one tough fight thought the country mare .

Shaking off that thought she looked over everything and Alpha Base camp was completed

The Solar Empire is in for one hay of a surprise. Meanwhile the lunar navy was captioned by Lunar Nightmare , Nightmare Dancer , Nightmare Beat , Northern Crescent , and Night Wish .

One thing was for sure , that Prince Shadow , Dark Tide , along with Rainbow Blitz and Shadow Knight . The country mare only waited a radio response from King Cosmos to uncloak .

"This is Cosmos , Uncloak Alpha Base camp , repeat uncloak Alpha Base camp" . "you heard him ponies , uncloak Alpha Base camp" ordered Applejack .

The tent along with everything else uncloaked revealing several radio's , several computers , and foot lockers holding assault rifles of different kinds , grenades , ammo , pistols , sub machine guns , and sniper rifles .

However her army was still cloaked and unmoving , mostly the tanks , the soldiers however were waiting on more tanks to be brought down by cloaked pelicans .

With Rainbow Dash and her shadow bolts

"This is it shadow bolts , this is what you've all been trained for , and this is why you are all going to make me proud , and we are going to show those wonder bolts a thing or two , of what it means to really be a true combat flier" said Dash as she walked back across the floor of the air balloon . "Commander Snowflake , you know what to do" .

"Yes ma'am , okay listen up ! , we are going to fly in a tight v formation then break off , once we are given the order to engage , as of right now this air balloon is cloaked and moving silently , the solar empire has NO idea that we are positioning our troops and waiting to strike" said Snowflake Firefly knew that in her heart this was also what she was trained for .

Sometime ago I joined the wonder bolts , but as I saw what was going on , I figured that this was a bad idea , the wonder bolts and the royal guard were ordered to kill those supporting Luna , or publicly execute those who fought back , or worse yet , beat them until they were with in an inch of there life , I chose this life and I'm glad I did cause I can be close to my daughter , and be there for her , but I know that she can stand on her own hooves , and for that I am proud of you Rainbow Dash my darling daughter thought Firefly .

With King Cosmos

King Cosmos was stationed on board a destroyer that was linking up with the main fleet , he looked around and saw several sailors working diligently , and not wasting any time at all . Alright , time to give the order , as soon as my ship links up thought Cosmos .

Meanwhile his wife Chernalia was stationed also on a destroyer also linking up with the main fleet being commanded by Shady . Hours later the two ships linked up , and it was time . "Give the order , uncloak the fleet , have everything uncloaked!" . "Aye sir , uncloaking the fleet , I'll relay the order to Captain applejack and the lunar fleet in the sky" .

Back with Captain Applejack

"This is King Cosmos , uncloak everything , it is time , begin the march towards Canterlot!" . "Alright y'all , gear up we march towards Canterlot!" ordered Applejack .

With that every single soldier grabbed every single weapon ammo included and a side arm , weather it be a magnum pistol or a colt .45 they were well armed . Applejack however grabbed herself a M7 sub machine gun and a magnum pistol .

The entire row of tanks started to uncloak , while Applejack took the lead with the troops in the front and the tanks in the back bringing up the rear .

With Rainbow Dash

The entire lunar fleet uncloaked and later Nightmare Squadron , Lunar Squadron , The Black Knights, Shadow bolts Squadron, and the Nightmare Paladins soon joined them . Rainbow Dash opened the door and flew into formation alongside a cloaked air squadron.

"Alright pilots and shadow bolts , this is it , from here on out there is no point of return , we are going to hit them and hit them hard , so hard that they will have no chance ,which is why we are flying cloaked , make it look like there is less of us and more of them" said Prince Shadow .

"Oh I see , fool them into thinking that they can hold us off easy then surprise them with more of our bulk?" asked Rainbow Dash . "That is entirely correct Captain Dash" .

Canterlot , Equestria

one of the solar guards saw something off in the distance , he grabbed his binoculars saw something approaching . "sir , alert Captain Armor , he should hear this" said one guard .

Quickly the other rushed through the streets of Canterlot and made it to the castle and alerted Shinning Armor . "What?! , how is that possible?" asked Shinning Armor in shock and surprise .

"I don't know sir , apparently they have some kind of cloaking technology" he said. Shinning Armor thought this over then knew who traded that tech with . "The Crystal Empire" he muttered .

"Uh sir , should we follow as planned?" .

"Yes , organize the Royal Canterlot Defense Force , I'll get Prince Odin to raise the barrier around Canterlot" said Shinning . The white unicorn stallion rushed further into the castle and found Prince Odin putting his armor on .

"Prince Odin , one of my scout guards , has spotted lunar forces headed our way , we need the barrier up to defend Canterlot" said Shinning Armor . The black alicorn looked at the solar captain in mock surprise .

"They are here ? , I'm hardly surprised , very well I'll raise the barrier just to hold them off , rally your troops to hold them off from entering the city" said Odin .

"At once" replied Shinning Armor .

The white unicorn took off to rally his troops to hold off the advancing lunar army , but for how long? . I didn't expect them to arrive so early but everything is going according to plan thought Odin .

He walked out of his champers and headed towards the entrance way and started to charge up his barrier spell that Shinning Armor taught him before this battle .

Back with King Cosmos

"Sir the defensive barrier is going up , should we uncloak our fighters?" . "Yes do so now" said King Cosmos with no emotion on his face .

He knew what he was doing and had to plan this out just right , one wrong mishap and the whole thing falls apart , which is ONE thing he can't risk .

"This is nightmare one , we have the go to uncloak" said Aurora . "Copy that , alright all Nightmare pilots uncloak" ordered Rainbow Blitz .

Each and every single plane in nightmare squadron uncloaked soon followed by lunar squadron , then shadow bolts , and finally the main bulk , the black Knights and Nightmare Paladins . "This is Knight 5 , all fighter jets uncloaked , I repeat all fighter jets uncloaked" said Archangel

"copy that Knight 5 , this is it , now we wait for the enemy fighters to show up on our radar" said Black Fire . And so they waited until they started seeing blips on there radar .

They couldn't see them visually till a few minutes later . "Oh sweet Luna alive" said Archangel in shock .

"Alright fly boys lock and load" ordered Black Fire . Every pony strapped there masks on and got ready to engage .

With Applejack

A few miles into the march she saw the griffins join her along with the changelings "Queen Chrysalis , King Beck Slasher , ah take it y'all wanted to join me?" asked Applejack .

"Indeed we did , which is why we are sending several hundred if not several thousand troops to evacuate Cloudsdale and Appleloosa , just so you can focus on Canterlot" said Chrysalis .

Nodding in agreement there forces remained in a sheet like formation headed straight for Canterlot . However in the air the entire air force was already engaged . Ah hope your okay up there Dash thought Applejack

Location : Crystal Empire

Emperor Crystal and Empress Phenacite were gearing up and having there ships , and troops be ready as well .

"Listen up my crystal ponies , while the solar Empire is going to be focused on the New Lunar Republic our ally , we are going to be heavily engaging them with everything that we have" said Emperor Crystal. He looked to his wife for approval , she decided that it was time to take over and continue the speech .

"What he said is absolutely true , our other allies the changeling swarm and the Griffin Empire are already marching with them towards Canterlot" said Phenacite .

The crystal guard cheered loudly as they could and rushed towards the armory to grab there phasers , swords , energy armor , phaser rifles , along with there spears . They gathered in the center of town as the civilians cheered for them as they began there march out of the crystal empire and towards Canterlot .

In space , Lunar Dry dock

Adam's POV

My fleet was waiting further orders as were positioned just at the asteroid belt some of my crew felt the uneasiness in what was going on .

"so this is it , our final clash with the solar Empire , as of now our allies are evacuating both Appleloosa and Cloudsdale while the army and air force focuses on Canterlot as there main target" I said .

"I know some of you are uncertain about this battle but res assured , that this will be our final clash , as we will soon be free from there tyrannical reign" . Hours later we soon received the word to uncloak I knew that this was going to be it .

"Red alert , raise energy shields arm missile pods A – F , ready 50mm defense guns begin charging the MAC!" I ordered sternly .

The crew nodded and got right to work . "Captain , I'm picking up enemy fighters heading our way" said Lyra .

"Launch all long and short sword fighters!" . Lyra nodded and sent the message , meanwhile Bon Bon was scanning for weak points and Quick Fix was working on weapons .

"Sir , I've detected several weak points in there hull , if we target those we should be able to cripple there fleet easily" said Quick fix with a grin .

"good work , target those weak spots and fire when ready" I ordered .

This is it , no turning back oh wait a sec, there wasn't any turning back for me when I was drafted into this war I thought .

Green lasers were being fired at us , thankfully our energy shields were deflecting most of the enemy fire . "Sir all fighters have been launched , they are engaging" said Lyra . "Alright , Fire at will" I said .

With that said Quick fix's grin turned in a smirk as she opened fire on the any one of the lead ships . The halcyon ship opened fire , with it's missiles and defense guns . "Evasive maneuvers , Beta 5!" . "Aye sir , Evasive maneuvers" said the helmsman .

Quickly my ship began to weave it's way through the loosely formed enemy fleet .

Smirking I ordered them to continue firing at any enemy ship they see . I was able to inflict damage through out there hangers which made me grin .

"Alright bring us about , target there engines and fire missiles" I said .

I heard messages from other ships mostly barking out orders to do what I'm doing , however I figured that Admiral Twilight Sparkle would begin to catch on , but this time I had a plan in mind . "Status on the MAC?" I asked. "90% charged sir" said Quick fix .

"Perfect , prepare to fire once it hits 100%" .

"Aye sir, they won't know what hit them" . "Indeed they won't" I said back to her .

I was so focused that I heard the intruder alarm sound , quickly snapping out of it , I ran into my ready room and suited up .

Oh no they don't ! , they are NOT taking this ship! I grabbed my assault rifle my custom M55B and made my way into the turbo lift .

Hours later I saw that Sargent Bullet Striker was already there and taking cover from enemy blaster fire . Time to do what I do best .

I quickly took cover and wanted to find out what in the name of the moon was going on . "Sargent talk to me , what happened?" I asked .

"Sir , apparently this battle was a mere distraction , they were waiting for us sir , and however something happened , there boarding craft were quickly landing in our hanger during the battle" reported Bullet Striker .

" Alright , we will need to start to push them back I will NOT let them get to the bridge , not here not NOW" I said firmly .

"Yes sir , no way in the stars will they be able to get to the bridge of this ship , in all my years I haven't seen one bridge crew member die , and I'm not going to start now" . "Makes sense to me , ALRIGHT BOYS LETS PUSH EM BACK !" I shouted .

All of our marines quickly stood up and continued to open fire while me and bullet striker started to advance forward , I could tell that they were shaking in there boots or maybe it was there armor , It didn't make much sense to me , however though I knew what I had to do , in the corner of my eye I saw some moron slip into through a vent . "Hold them off , looks like we got a bad ass wanting to get to the bridge through these vents" I said .

"I'll do what I can , YOU HEARD THE CAPTAIN , PUSH THESE SOLAR MORON'S BACK !" shouted Bullet Striker .

Air vents of the Once More Unto the Breach

I had my helmet on this time , plus I had my energy sword thanks to Bullet striker who gave me one before I entered .

A solar Stormtrooper tried to jump me , and he did . However what shocked me was that I saw a lightsaber on him .

"So you must be the famous human captain huh?" he asked .

"well yea , and your NOT getting to the bridge , I would sooner destroy this ship" I threatened . "Oh really ? , well we plan to take it same with the crew" he said menacingly .

He unclipped his lghtsaber from his belt and it made a snap hiss , obviously the blade was red .

Fine then , time to see what this energy sword can do I thought as I put away my assault rifle and brought my energy sword .

It too made a snap hiss , as two energy blades emerged . He made a step forward , I took a step back , if I remembered right this was from Pirates of the Caribbean : Curse of the black Pearl . Since I knew where this was going I decided to make the first move .

I slashed at him , he barely dodged it , and we continued like this until one of us clashed our weapons , several times our weapons clashed only to parry the others strike .

He had an opening and I took the chance , I slashed at his right or left front hoof armor , drawing blood . I then kicked him in the face sending him backwards and he nearly collapsed .

I quickly knew he was going to get up , and he did , he charged at me once again with the intent to kill , but I had a plan , I jumped into the air and let him run through , only to land behind him .

Stunned he turned around and saw me with a grin on my face , he got angry and started swinging his saber wildly . So that's how you wanna do it I thought .

What I didn't take into account was his horn .

His horn lit up and he threw several objects at me . I slashed them with ease , only to have him attempt to slash at my face , I blocked it but barley .

Back with the Crystal Empire , Canterlot train Station

Both Prince Charming and prince Christpoh De Crystal , lead the crystal army , armed with there technology , however when they saw the barrier , the two put there heads together to form a plan .

"Alright , see that train station , if we capture it , we should be able to move forward and capture the city" said Charming with a plan in mind .

"You think it will work?" asked Christpoh a bit concerned . "I'm quite , sure , we need a sniper to take them out" explained Charming.

Quickly the troops hid behind what cover they could while the snipers took aim and opened fire , the solar troops didn't see it coming , and like domino's , they fell easily . Minutes later , the train station was secured .

"Alright begin to setup , a communications base!" Ordered Charming .

The guards nodded and got right to work doing what they were ordered to do . "Christoph De Crystal looked around and noticed that barrier , however he had a plan .

"Well why don't we call down a strike from space and go from there?" asked Christoph . "It would take awhile to mobilize the fleet , but I'll see what I can do" said Charming .

"This is Prince Charming to the crystal fleet , we need a strike on the barrier surrounding Canterlot" said Charming into his communicator on his uniform .

Location : Mars , Crystal Dry dock

Emperor Crystal heard the transmission coming form the surface .

"Sir , Prince Charming is hailing from the surface , shall I respond?" .

"yes put him on screen" said Crystal . An image soon came up on the main view screen of Prince Charming at the Canterlot Train station .

"Ah I'm glad this works , now about that orbital strike?" asked Charming .

"I'll see what I can do , it shouldn't take long to mobilize the fleet to get to Equiss" replied Emperor Crystal . With that the transmission ended .

"Enterprise to all ships , mobilize , we are heading towards Equiss , it would seem that our forces on the ground could use a helping hoof".

Minutes later , the entire crystal fleet mobilized around the Galaxy class starship and began to move out under impulse power headed towards Equiss but later jumped to warp in several flashes .

"Alright here it is , we are going to perform a orbital strike , then proceed to the location of our allies , to lend them a hand , according to the reports , they have engaged the solar empire at the asteroid belt just outside of the solar system" said Emperor Crystal .

Hours later his wife Empress Phenacite joined his fleet , her ship was none other than a Nebula Class starship .

And not a moment too soon he thought . "Sir we are nearing Equiss" reported the helmsman . "helm take us out of warp" ordered Crystal .

The fleet dropped out of warp but only the crystal Empire flagship was able to perform the bombardment .

"Target that barrier , and open fire with phasers and photon torpedo's" . "Sir we are locked on and ready to fire at your command" said Moonlight Crystyshine .

"Fire!" ordered Crystal .

She pressed the button and opened fire , the galaxy class starhips phasers were able to hit the barrier easily along with several photon torpedoes striking it , not minutes later the barrier collapsed allowing the crystal ground forces to charge into the city . "Helm lay in a course for the asteroid belt and engage at warp 8" . "Aye sir , course laid in" .

"Well , engage , lets see what this ship can do" . And just like that the fleet jumped to warp once again. , heading towards there allies .

Canterlot , Equestria

several solar guards were patrolling the city , when they saw before them an entire army approaching . They were in shock ,

"Quickly alert Captain Armor ! , we have a serious problem" said one guard .

The second solar guard took off at great speed . Hours later he reached the captain with a panicked look on his face .

"Captain , we have a problem , the barrier is down and we have an approaching army charging through the city headed straight for us" he panicked . In shock , Shinning Armor was taken by surprise a bit , but wasn't phased .

"Ready the walkers , it's time to hold them off as well" ordered Shining . Quickly the troops got into there ATAT's and ATST's and took flanking positions .

But of what they saw surprised them several shuttles uncloaked themselves and opened fire with there phasers and torpedoes taking down the walkers .

More walkers soon approached and opened fire with there turbo lasers , two hits and the shuttles went down in burning flames . In mock surprise , Commander Silver mane had a sneaky idea .

"Alright , use your photon rifles to take out as many troops as possible , heavy troops use your split phaser rifles to do the same thing , while we charge in with our mini photon launchers and take out those lumbering hunks of walkers !" ordered Silvermane .

Several troops opened fire with there photon rifles , while the heavier troops did the same thing with there split phaser rifles . Several solar stormtroopers were hit .

This time Shining Armor ordered his troops to take whatever cover they could find . Both blaster and phasers shots rang out through the city of Canterlot .

Location : Appleloosa

Rescuing Race: Changeling Swarm

Hours eariler before the lunar army reached Canterlot , Queen Chrysalis had ordered King Metamorphosis to take several hundred troops if not several thousand along with transports to evacuate the slave town of Appleloosa .

They soon landed and were hardly surprised at the defenses .

"this is a rescue operation , it's more than likely , that the ponies in that town , are being held against there will , we must get them out of there and get them possibly medical attention IF they need it , now Commander , what's there troop numbers?" asked Metamorphosis .

"Mostly in the double digits sir , I'd estimate about 50 to 90 troops sir" said the changeling commander . "Very well , begin the charge , take out ONLY the solar troops , they are going to be in for a surprise" .

"You heard the king , CHARGE!" shouted the changeling commander . Alright , time to see what we can really do.

With that said the changelings charged in with there AKS 74u's strapped to there backs . Once they were inside the town , the solar ponies opened fire with there E 11 Blaster rifles .

Quickly the changelings returned fire , most of the bullets found there mark taking out any and all of the solar stormtroopers .

As there was NO commander in sight , or so they thought. But hours into the fight , the solar stormtroopers were overwhelmed , as they had no heavy artillery support nor fighter support either . Most if not all the solar fighters were dealing with the lunar fighters and soon the changeling vipers . Smirking King Metamorphosis , ordered in the transports , and grabbed the mic .

"This is an evacuation , in exactly several hours , Empress Celestia will launch nuclear weapons all over the entire planet , grab only what you need and board the transport , it will take you to a safe location off the planet and towards the ship , I repeat this is an evacuation" Said King

Metamorphosis . Quickly the ponies did just that as several transports with waiting changelings waited patiently for the appleloosain ponies to board there transport .

Several ponies didn't waste any time getting on board .

Hours later almost the entire town was gone . Smiling the changeling kind watched as the transports headed up into the air , and soon out of sight .

"well I'd say our job is done , what about you commander , shall we join the main army?" asked Metamorphosis . "I believe so my king , we shouldn't keep Queen Chrysalis waiting" said the changeling commander .

"by the way what's your name?". "My name ? , well , noling has asked me that before , my name is Commander Horn Changer" said Horn changer .

"Alright , Horn Changer , we are going to need your help in this , so lets load up and head back to the main army" said Metamorphosis . "yes sir" . With that said the changeling evacuation detachment loaded up and headed back to the grassy fields of Canterlot .

Location : Cloudsdale

Evacuating Race: The Griffin Empire

Hours earlier , King Beck slasher , had sent his best commander Rodan to evacuate Cloudsdale , but before they could do so , they had a bit of a problem .

"Sir , it appears that Cloudsdale is locked up tighter than Canterlot on a royal wedding sir , what are your orders , sir ?" he asked .

"I recommend , that we send in our air force , to wipe out any and all anti air weapons , followed by sending in our ground troops to secure the area" said Commander Rodan.

"Very well sir , I'll send the order".

Hours later , several SU 29's and Harrier II's flew straight past them side winder missiles armed , said missiles were fired , knocking out the pathetic solar defenses . "Now send out our ground troops with cloud walking armor" said Rodan .

"yes sir , you heard the commander suit up , there's some special armor that you are required to wear , during this operation , we have been ordered by his royal highness King Beck Slasher to evacuate Cloudsdale" said his second in commander Kestrel . The griffins flew out back of the puddle jumpers and straight for the city of cloudsdale .

That's when more puddle jumpers flew in and secured the area and helped load up the pegasi guard and civilian pegasi . Rodan was overseeing this evacuation operation . And not a thing was going to ruin it , not the solar empire nor Celestia .

Something just felt off , why was the solar empire puling back ? , it seemed weird , that's when they were pulling back for the fight at Canterlot , as they needed all available troops .

"Now it all makes sense , that's why we had an easy fight" said Rodan making the connection . "Sir?" asked Kestrel confused .

"I think it makes perfect sense , the solar troops pull back because and it's most likely that #1 that Canterlot would soon be overrun and they need any and all troops to defend it , in over 1,000 years Canterlot never fell to anyone , but now it's about to , which is why what was left of the solar Cloudsdale patrol left in a panic" explained Rodan .

"So you think that , what your saying makes perfect sense?' asked Kestrel . "Sir all puddle jumpers report that , any and all pegasus ponies are on board" reported private Gilda .

"good work , now then order those puddle jumpers to head towards space and off load said ponies towards the moon where I know they will be safe there" said Rodan with a stern look. "yes sir , sending orders now" said Gilda .

"Looks like we are needed back with the main army , lay in a course" said Rodan . "yes sir" . With that Gilda set the course in for the grassy fields outside of Canterlot .

Back with the Lunar army

Captain Applejack's army was close , already the crystal Empire is currently meeting heavy resistance from Captain Shinning Armor , which meant it would be easier but that's when she saw a new Squadron fly over her .

Night's fury , well ah'll be thought Applejack with a smile. "Alright Ponies , we are close to Canterlot , lock and load those weapons and be ready to engage the moment you see solar forces" said Applejack .

Every single soldier looked to one another and nodded , this was what they were trained for , to defend Princess Luna and the New Lunar Republic , to fight for a better change , for a brighter future !.

Hours later they soon reached Canterlot since they took the long route . The march soon continued into the city , and of course solar forces were spotted . Several turbolasers were fired .

"EVERYPONY TAKE COVER , BRING THOSE TANKS AND WARTHOGS UP AND OPEN FIRE ON THAT WALKER" shouted Applejack .

She wasn't in a panic but she was taken by surprise . The tanks and warthogs moved into position along with the mongooses and gungooses .

"have those mongooses and gungooses charge in and take out any solar that they see!" ordered Applejack. Commander Kimono gave the order , and went with the last mongoose . Kimono nodded to her captain that it was time she got more involved with the battle . Applejack silently nodded back and let her go .

Night's Fury

Princesses Luna ,Nightmare Moon and Star Chaser told there CO that they had to land in a nearby field and head straight for the solar castle .

"Understood Fury's 8 , 9 and 10 , good luck" said Prince Artemis . The three lunar sisters landed in a solar air field but outside of it should they need a quick escape .

They landed there F A 18 hornets, they removed there masks and got out of there flight suits , quickly they put on there armor and grabbed there weapons .

"This is it my sisters , let us not fail in capturing Celestia" said Luna with a look that would kill anypony .

"I know , it's for her own good , but should we not try and reason with her to surrender peacefully?" asked Star Chaser .

"I tried that when I sent that letter , it was no good , so I suppose that talking to her would work" said Luna .

They soon took off at full gallop towards the castle it's self .

Meanwhile two guards were shot in the head by Luna as they entered the castle it's self , thankfully the layout didn't change much so she knew her way towards the throne room easily .

"It's over Celestia , surrender now , and I will offer you mercy for your crimes" said Luna calmly . The solar empress turned around a manic expression on her muzzle facing the three lunar sisters .

"I think not Luna , it is you who should surrender , in but a few hours I will launch the nuclear missiles and turn this planet into nothing but a nuclear wasteland" said Celestia .

"I see then , then you have left me NO choice , open fire!" shouted Luna .

Quickly the three lunar sisters started to fire at Celestia , but she took the air and returned fire with her E 11 blaster rifle . "Is that really the best you three can do ?" taunted Celestia .

"No , But THIS IS!" shouted Luna as she threw a sticky grenade .

It landed right on Celestia's wing as it exploded sending her crashing right to the floor , blood was trickling out of the freshly opened wound . Blast it ! , well no matter I believe I can regenerate that wing thought Celestia .

First the bone started to regenerate it's self , later followed by the muscle and other arteries , and then the skin followed by the fur and lastly the feathers themselves. She gave he new wing a good flap . Perfect!. .

"Surrender now Celestia , this is your final warning , do not force us to bring you down the hard way" said Nightmare Moon warningly .

"Sorry , but I think not , I have worked too hard to earn this place of power , and now I will NOT surrender , not to you , nor any pony" said Celestia .

"From now on I am no longer the white alicorn known as Empress Celestia I am known as , SOLAR FLARE!" .

Her body started to turn a different color from white to red , and her mane changed from the normal multicolor that it was to now flames as hot as the sun it's self .

And her cutie mark , also changed as she now has complete control over the sun it's self . "Soon and forever , THE DAY SHALL LAST FOREVER!"shouted Solar Flare .

Luna , Nightmare Moon and Star Chaser were in shock , what they saw before them was no longer Celestia but , the evil wicked mare Solar Flare .

"Fine then , it seems that she forced us to take her out , we fired warning shots but it was no good , we offered her to surrender willingly and that didn't work , but now lets do it together my sisters , FOR THE NEW LUNAR REPBLIC!" said Luna .

Quickly they put on there helmets and grabbed there gear and began to open fire again, starting with Star Chaser , then Nightmare Moon with her M6 Spartan laser , and finally Luna with her M7 Sub machine gun . None of the bullets even made a scratch on her . Solar flare laughed evilly and bared her fangs . "IS this the best you can muster Lunar sisters ? , I would have thought that you all could do better than that !, well no matter I think it's time that I strike back" said Solar Flare evilly .

Elsewhere in the castle

Solaris was working on a few things when he heard the sounds of battle .

Quickly rushing to the throne room what he saw before him was truly frightening , his own sister turned evil May as well join her , seeing as to how the three lunar sisters are loosing thought Solaris .

In a bright ball solaris began to transform , first with his teeth grew fangs , later followed by his coat , mane and tail .

His mane and tail were spitting out solar flares , his coat was a bright red and his eyes were slitted like dragon's eyes , as was solar flares eyes .

When the ball dispersed like a solar flare , Solaris was no more , in his place was another evil pony , SOLAR STORM .

"Ah I like this" he said to himself as he looked himself over .

"I must join my sister". With that he teleported straight to the throne room and took his place alongside his sister .

"I'm glad you made , dear brother , these lunar sisters have been an annoyance to me , since this fight started" said Solar flare with a huff .

"Don't worry , we can take them together" suggested Solar Storm . " I seem to like that idea" said Solar Flare with a fang baring smile .

With that both Solar Flare and Solar Storm took to the air and started to blast the throne room with there solar magic . Luna quickly looked towards her sisters who were in shock .

"Two solar Ponies ? ! , how in the hay do we deal with that?" asked Star Chaser worried and confused . "that is true , we are going to need backup for this" said Luna .

"I may have an idea or two , we need help from our allies" said Nightmare Moon. "and I think I know whom to call" . With that said she used her radio to get the allies she needed for this fight .

Outside of the castle , Canterlot , Equestria

Queen Chrysalis and King Beck Slasher were taking care as many solar stormtroopers as possible.

Hours later Commander Rodan along with King Metamorphosis rejoined and heard the transmission.

"Repeat this is princess Luna , we require assistance , Celestia and Solaris have turned evil , they have turned into Solar Flare and Solar Storm ,repeat we need assistance in the castle please hurry" .

"Very well , round up as many soldiers as possible and follow us Commander" ordered King Beck Slasher .

"my love , Round up as many drones as possible , looks like we are headed into the belly of the beast" said Chrysalis with grim look.

"I'll do what I can, alright anyling that is NOT fighting rally to me , your ally Princess Luna has requested assistance from inside the castle" called King Metamorphosis .

With that said several thousand drones flocked to the kings call . Hours later they took off either flying or running as fast as there hooves could carry them .

A few hours later Queen Vespa , Queen Sarracenia , Queen Universia , and Queen Penumbra arrived . "Quickly cover the positions that Chrysalis and her troops had and hold off the solar stormtroopers!" ordered Vespa .

The drones did just that and began to fight the solar stormtroopers with there AK 74 U assault rifles , the bullets found there marks as more and more solar stormtroopers went down .

Back with Shining Armor

"Captain , we have another problem , since the barrier went down , we are now dealing with both the changelings AND the griffins along with the crystal army , sir we are outnumbered and we must retreat" said one Sargent .

"No not just yet we need Ultra Magnum and his regiment to get here as soon as possible" said Shining Armor . "of course sir , we will do what we can to hold them off and buy Ultra magnum some time" .

Crystal Empire

Princess Cadence was resting peacefully but she knew something was wrong , that was when she had an idea . I know I can't move , but I think my other brother can help thought Cadence .

With that said she got some parchment paper , some ink and a quill and quickly wrote a letter to her brother since she couldn't get up and get to him , since she is pregnant with her foal .

Dear Prince Aqua ,

This is an urgent letter from your sister , Princess Cadence , I fear that sooner or later my husband Shinning Armor may come here himself and kill me and my unborn foal , I need you to muster up the best ponies that you can find and have them protect the castle , I don't know how long I have , but none of us can leave the Crystal Empire unprotected ,

sincerely your sister in the family

Princess Mi Amore Cadezna , Cadence

she sent the letter and waited for a reply , hours later a reply came to her saying that he'll do what he can to protect the castle . Cadence sighed in relief knowing that her kingdom would be protected as best as it can .

The heavy lumbering mechs were doing what they could to hold back the crystal army while at the sametime troops were falling like flies , yet Captain Shinning Armor looked up to the sky and saw Ultra magnum's troops push back the Changeling , Griffin and the Crystal armies so his troops could land and hold them off as long as possible.

"I came here as soon as I could , I heard what happened , don't worry we will hold this position , take what troops you can and take the Crystal Empire for your own Shinning Armor" said Ultra Magnum .

"Yes sir" .

With that said he rallied what troops he could and made a swift exit out the other side of Canterlot and quickly made his way through the now empty grassy fields , thankfully the lunar army was no longer there .

Hours later , he found scattered bunches of solar troops that linked up with him as his army grew in size once again .

The crystal Empire was soon in his sights . Smirking Shinning Armor , looked around and that's when an idea sprang into his mind .

"Commander , I want you to march into the city and slaughter anything that moves , military or civilian , I want the crystal Empire for myself , oh and if you see Princess Cadence , kill her" said Shinning Armor with an evil grin .

"yes sir , you heard the captain MOVE OUT !" ordered Snow Crystal . With that said , Commander Snow Crystal ordered her troops to march into the city with sadistic grins on there muzzles .

Back at the city

"Captain I had just received word that Captain Armor's detachment is headed right for the Crystal Empire" said Kimono arriving back . Applejack was in shock over this but composed herself .

"Alright , I'll call for several pelicans to evac the civilians to a safe location" said Applejack going for her radio . "This is Captain Applejack of the Lunar army , Ah request several pelicans to be sent over to the crystal empire on the double ,Captain Armor's army is headed right for them , ah don't know how long they have , repeat send pelicans to evac the civilians to a safe location , repeat send pelicans to evac civilians"

Air Vents

me and this mystery pony were still fighting our weapons clashing .

"Alright I don't know who you are , but you are NOT taking this ship" I said threateningly . "Oh really ?" he asked in mock surprise. "Now why take a ship when I can kill the whole entire crew" .

Our weapons clashed again as we were in a deadlock . "Give it up human ! , you have NO chance against me" he said under his helmet .

I was pushing him back with everything that I had , but it was no luck he easily pushed me back as I was scooting backwards , I turned my head and I saw a rotating fan .

Ah crap !, I have to do something I thought .

Quickly I pivoted my body and he fell right in . "Well he's dead , now I have to link up with Bullet Striker and find out if the ship was overrun" I said to myself as I found the exit .

Bridge

Silver Stream was in command , as he quickly dealt with Twilight Sparkle and her fleet.

There's NO way she could pull this off , we have them trapped and with there backs to the wall thought Silver stream in victory . "Commander , something's coming out of hyperspace , it's a super Star destroyer" reported Nightmare Dancer .

Hours later several new ships came out of warp . "Commander , I'm picking up new ships , it's the Crystal Empire" . "Alright lets give the Solar Empire a run for it's bits" said Silver Stream.

SE Burning Star ,Star Destroyer MK II

Blast we are out numbered badly , we have allies to speak of , nor do we have a single chance of survival thought Twilight . She was really in a pinch now , all she could think of was one trick , call in the SSD . The one ship that helped at the battle of Saturn .

Hours later it showed up and opened fire on the lunar fleet , this time she turned her attention to the griffin and changeling fleets , but what took her by surprise was the Crystal Empire ships firing there phasers and photon torpedoes at HER ships .

"target those Crystal ships and open fire!" I ordered loudly . "Aye ma'am , locking on to the lead ship" . "Well then by all means , …. fire" .

The MK II star destroyer fired it's heavy turbolasers followed by it's light turbolasers at the galaxy starship , sadly they didn't do a whole lot of damage .

"Fire Proton torpedoes , we need there shields down!" I said . "yes ma'am firing torpedoes" . The wedge shaped ship , fired it's missiles , they slammed into the lead ship but the shields were barely holding .

CE Enterprise

"Captain , shields are down to 40% another couple of hits like that and were gone" said Moonlight Crystyshine .

"Okay , begin evasive maneuvers , target there fighters and fire a concreted fire of torpedoes with phasers on full" ordered Crystal .

The galaxy class ship began to maneuver and opened fire with it's torpedoes as several fighters were destroyed , several more fell victim to it's phasers , and hours later the solar fleet was already loosing it's ships faster than you can say Eternal Night . Soon Emperor Crystal saw the MK II SD go into hyper space .

"Let her go , it's more than likely she'll find her home base gone with nothing but debries" said Crystal . " Aye sir , but what about the huge lumbering ship that is attacking the lunar fleet?" asked Gloomy Dawn. "

We are not going to sit here and let that fleet be destroyed , have our ships move in and fire on that huge ship" ordered Crystal with a stern tone .

"Aye sir" said Gloomy dawn .

With that said , the crystal fleet moved into position and opened fire with there weapons , with in mere hours the SSD began to have not only external explosions but internal as well . And so the ship blew up in one HUGE fireball . Leaving everypony to cheer .

"Helm take us back to Equiss , I think our forces on the ground are probably struggling with the solar army" said Crystal with a smug grin. . The Crystal Fleet jumped to warp as later the changeling fleet and the griffin fleet.

NLR Once More Unto the Breach

Adam's POV

I soon made it back to the bridge with hardly a scratch but that didn't mean , I was sore I did walk with a bit of a limp in me . Ow , wit this limp it's going to leave a mark I thought .

I made it to the elevator that would get me to the bridge . I stepped inside and waited to get to the bridge . I finally made it and of course my bridge crew was okay .

"Report" I said while taking my seat . "We won sir , and our allies are heading back to Equiss , sir" said Silver Stream.

I nodded as I sat down . "Lay in a course for the moon , it's time to go home" I said .

Hours later we were in slip space . Hours later a medic pony came to the bridge . "What happened to you captain?" she asked .

"I was in a battle with this huge pony , he was tough as nails but , I was able to take him out" I said . She examined my leg and much to her shock it was swollen badly .

"Captain , I have to get you to sick bay , your leg is swollen badly and must be tended to" she said urgently .

"Alright but I don't think I can make it on my own" I admitted .

"That's okay , I have a plan" she said . "well what's your name?" I asked curiously . "I'm , Nurse heartbeat the medical officer on board this ship" said Heartbeat .

She used her magic to teleport me and herself to the infirmary. She laid me on the bed and put me under .

Hours later I couldn't remember what had happened but I was conscious as I came out of it . "How bad's my leg?" I asked .

"Pretty bad sir , your leg bone was fractured or in this case re fractured , and your muscles were sprained , it took constant hours of surgery to repair your bones , but I don't want you walking , which is why I'm giving you a wheel chair till your leg has a chance to heal" explained Heartbeat .

Canterlot , Equestria

Luna , Star Chaser , and Nightmare Moon were low on ammo and out of grenades and help was on it's way .

"Listen , I think I have an idea , I think it's time we use our magic to fight her , not like we have much else left" said Luna .

Nightmare Moon and Star Chaser agreed and decided to use there best spells . "Use your best combat spells that you know well , it should be enough to overpower the two of them" .

Meanwhile , King Beck Slasher King Metamorphosis and Queen Chrysalis were running or flying as fast as they could turning down hallways there troops not far behind them . Finally they saw the double doors to the throne room .

Wasting no time they crashed right through them and saw the lunar sisters battling Solar Flare and Solar Storm. "Alright you know what to do , TAKE THEM!" shouted Chrysalis .

She charged up her best spell and fired it at what she thought was Celestia .

However it wasn't , in much to her shock and horror it hardly fazed her one bit .

Solar Flare turned her head in the changeling queen's direction . "Is that really the best spell you can cast , Chrysalis ?" asked Solar flare with a fang grin .

Defiantly King Beck slasher attacked her with his claws buying Chrysalis to join in . Metamorphosis , however was struggling against Solar Storm .

"Really Metamorphosis ? This is the best you can do ? , I would have expected more from a changeling king" taunted Solar Storm . Thinking quick , he charged up his most powerful spell and fired it at Solar Storm .

The spell was able to connect with solar storms horn sending him into a wall . Time to put all those hours of training with my kids to work thought Metamorphosis .

Wasting no time he galloped and bucked as hard as he could into Solar storm's side making him cry out in pain. Solar storm could hardly move as his ribs was cracked .

Blast it ! , that powerful buck from Metamorphosis really hurt , well of course it hurt , however I have a plan that will be sending him into next week thought Solar storm .

He connected with the sun it's self and brought up a wall of flame .

Metamorphosis stopped with his next attack confused .

Until he saw , Solar storm jump over said wall of flame and buck him in the chest sending him into a near by pillar . Metamorphosis crashed into said pillar sending him to the floor coughing up green blood .

Ugh , I can't stop bleeding … wait at second I can heal myself using a healing spell taught by Dusk shine , if I can remember how it works …. ah now I do , well lets see if this works . The changeling king charged up his horn using the spell to heal himself .

His wound and the bleeding stopped , but he didn't know how long the spell would last . Finally he made a sword of pure changeling magic and charged at him with a malicious intent to kill .

Solar Storm was surprised at the changeling King's change in attitude but he liked it .

Smiling from ear to ear he summoned his sword of flames and charged at the changeling King . The two swords clashed sending sparks in all directions .

Luna decided to do the samething , as did Chrysalis , Nightmare Moon , and Star Chaser . They made there swords out of pure magic and charged at solar flare .

King Beck slasher was still on the attack as Luna told him to back off , nodding he did just that and let Luna and her sisters plus chrysalis charge in . Best of luck , oh if only my late wife could see this thought Beck slasher .

Deep inside the castle

The griffin , changeling and lunar troops attacked any and all solar stormtroopers but were unaware of what was next .

Panicking a unicorn solar guard teleported away from the advancing troops to quickly tell the king and queen of the solar Empire the bad news .

"Your highness's , we have a serious problem" he said . King Shooting Star and his wife Queen Nova looked at the panicked guard and told him to calm down and tell them what was wrong .

"we have advancing troops , from the changeling Swarm , the Griffin Empire , and the New Lunar Republic all headed this way" he said .

"we must leave" said King Shooting Star . His wife however was a bit different on the issue . "But what about our son and daughter Solaris and Celestia ?" asked Queen Nova .

"leave them , the solar Empire has fallen , send word to the rest of the family to go into hiding abandon our royal titles , change our appearance , change our names , change everything" said King Shooting Star with a stern look.

With that said the word was spread through out the entire castle .

Princess Aurora dawn , Prince Odin , Solar Chaser , Solar Surfer , Solar System , Flamenta , Royal Ribbon , Solar Flame , and Solar Wind all fled to there cloaked shuttles and fled to the far corners of Equiss to start new lives in new town's. Not a single pony spoke a single word .

Those ponies fled the castle and as for ultra magnum he too fled joining the royal family as well . Soon the last of the solar army was crushed .

Commander Kimono and Commander Silver mane cheered , however yet another battle was going to start .

The Crystal Empire

Prince Aqua , Princess Crystal Rose, Princess Crystal shores , Princess Crystal Rose , Princess Crystal , and Princess Secret Scroll were all busy locking down the crystal Empire .

"of one thing I don't understand , is how long those pelicans from the New Lunar Republic would get here" said Princess Crystal Rose .

"Well , one thing is for sure that , they are on there so we have organize the City guard to mount an effective fighting force" replied Princess Crystal .

"add that to the fact that we have magic and unknown technology at our side as well" added Princess Secret Scroll with a knowing smile .

The crystal princesses kept working until everything was secure .

Hours later the pelicans arrived and it took about three hours nearly five for the citizens of the crystal empire to be evacuated .

"Alright , it's up to us to hold out" said Prince Aqua in his aqua crystal armor .

Every single city guard , was armed with a phaser or mini photon torpedo launcher . Thankfully though , it was hours before the solar army approached the crystal empire .

Phaser turrets were setup , Meanwhile Applejack's army soon got word that Shinning Armor's army was already inside the crystal Empire and headed straight for Princess Cadence , without any time to waste they all loaded up and quickly flew as fast as the pelican transports could carry them .

Hours later they made it and linked up with the city army defending the crystal castle . "Alright , ah made it" said Applejack out of breath .

"I'm glad you made it , now then Captain Armor's army is in the crystal Empire and headed possibly for the crystal castle , which means we can't let him get to Princess Cadence , her unborn foal is the key to the future of the entire empire" said Prince Aqua seriously .

"Ah understand , we crushed the solar army at Canterlot , shouldn't be much of a trouble here" said Applejack .

With that said all of the tanks set themselves up in waves , the heaviest tanks were in the back medium tanks in the middle light tanks in front and scorpion tanks ready to engage and lend a hand at a mere moments notice.

"This is it y'all , we have to hold this line , we have to defend the crystal castle from Captain Armor , cause way ah see it , Cadence's unborn foal is the future of the crystal empire" said Applejack .

All of the lunar troops were cheering , each soldier knew that this was going to be it , another great battle .

"Ah know some of you are dead beat tired from fighting at Canterlot , but we have to do this , crush the solar empire here and right now ! , the crystal empire is one of our allies , and ah know that some of you may not have much of a chance to survive this , but believe me ah will keep ya all alive" said Applejack with a stern look.

Everypony under her command , knew this , they were kept alive by her and her alone at times she would make risky command decisions just to keep her troops alive .

"Alright , we are set , now what?" asked Kimono . "Now we wait and as soon as we have a clear visual , we open fire" said Prince Aqua .

The warthogs mongooses , and gungooses were just getting into position and ready with drivers and gunners ready , Kimono and her captain eyeballed each one , a few ponies under her command were feeling fatigued but pushed on anyway . "and now , let the final battle commence" said Aqua to himself .

Shinning Armor soon had a visual on the city army and the lunar army standing before them . "Alright send in the troops followed by any and all fighters" said Shinning Armor .

Nodding his commander gave the order and several Ef 2000's flew in a loose formation along with several more other fighters such as MO 17 foxwolf A , the Mig 29 A , the F 27 C , the Mig 41 pp falken B , the F A 31 ,the Mirage 2000 , and finally the last plane to join this loose squadron was the assault mirage F 1.

However the Crystal empire wasn't without it's own air force ,several F 4 J's flew over head along with several more F4s's phantom II's , the MA firehawk , and the S U 27 .

And so the dog fight over head began, now it all came down to how long the ground forces could hold out .

Captain Applejack had a plan of her own . "Commander Kimono, ah need ya to call in The Black Knights and the Nightmare Paladins to lend a hand " said Applejack .

"Of course , Captain" said Kimono . With that said she got on the horn with the Black Knights and the Nightmare Paladins .

"This is Commander Kimono , I request assistance , the Crystal Empire Air Force is heavily engaged with the last of the solar Empire and needs assistance on the double, repeat get your flanks over here!" with that said she removed her hoof to allow the static to be heard .

"Rodger that , this is the Black Knights we are on our way , just tell the Crystal Empire to hold tight" .

"Copy that this is the Nightmare Paladins we are also on our way , those solars just don't know when to quite while they are ahead" .

Hours later both squadrons showed up , and Applejack now had her full focus on Captain Shinning Armor of the solar Empire .

"Knight 1, Fox 2"Said Archangel a missile was shot from the plane colliding wit 31 . "Knight 6 , Fox 2"said 8 bit Twist. Another missile collided with yet another F A 31 .

Several more SU 27's fired there sidewinder missiles all scoring direct hits .

As the mix of planes were taken down . The Nightmare Paladins figured it was time to show what they could do .

"Alright time to show these solar pilots how a dog fight is really done" said Arrow Dust . "I agree , lets do this ,I have tow , Paladin 6 Fox 1" said Skull Cross "Paladin 4 , Fox 1" said Dark Cloud .

Both the Black Knights and Nightmare Paladins along with there allies of the crystal Empire there fighter support was wiped out .

The crystal empire fighters and lunar fighters turned there attention to the solar ground forces . "Pilots , lets plow the road!" said Dark cloud .

With that said the pilots fired there mini guns and nearly all of the stormtroopers didn't have enough time to take cover , the ATAT's and ATST's got hit badly , the Crystal fighters came around and fired there hellfire missiles . All were direct hits , the lumbering walkers fell over and exploded into a ball of fire .

As for Shinning Armor you ask ? , Well he was evacted back to Canterlot and was soon hidden somewhere safe deep underneath the castle at the moment .

Cheering loudly both the crystal empire and the lunar forces hugged and kissed each other in victory at the crystal empire .

Canterlot Castle , Throne room

The battle between the Solar Flare and the lunar sisters was nearing it's end .

Solar Flare was loosing ground while Luna , Star Chaser , Chrysalis , and Nightmare Moon were gaining ground .

She had wounds all across her side , wounds from her wings , wounds on her chest and blood trickling down her eye , one of which was closed .

I'm going to die , I'll take at least one of them with me ! Thought Solar Flare .

Eventually in her weakness Luna struck she thought her sword found it's mark but no luck .

Solar flare rolled out of the way , but she had an idea , she took off towards the nuclear room and ordered the ponies to begin the count down . Nodding they inserted there keys and turned them .

Nuclear launch detected , evacuate planet immiedetly . My ponies have bought me enough time , and now it all comes to an end thought Solar Flare

Solar Storm however was winning against King Metamorphosis who was weak from using so much changeling magic that he collapsed from exhaustion.

"Rest now my love , you did what you could , it's time we take over okay?" asked Chrysalis concerned .

"Thank you , he's tougher than Solar Flare , none of my attacks got through" said Metamorphosis weakly .

"You did your best ,and that's all that matters to me" said Chrysalis .

She soon called in King Beck Slasher to fill his place . Nodding King Beck slasher jumped in eyes glaring at the solar alicorn emperor in front of him .

Eventually Luna and Nightmare Moon continued there fight and ended Celestia or Solar Flare as she was now called .

"Oh what's this ? , you think you can all take me on?" asked Solar storm with a fang grin .

"No we are going to end you one way or another" said Star Chaser .

"Oh ? , I doubt it" . All the ponies charged at him with Luna and Nightmare Moon charging in as well . They thought there swords found there marks or claws as well .

But alas it was no good , Solar Storm teleported behind them only for Chrysalis to stab her sword right in solar storm's head . "Princess Luna there is one city we must evacuate , It's Ponyville" said Artemis .

"very well , have our pelicans and other transports be sent over there immediately" ordered Luna . "as you wish" said Artemis. the channel cut leaving only static.

Luna , Chrysalis , Nightmare Moon and Star Chaser along with King Beck Slasher picked up the now unconscious Metamorphosis and ran out of the castle and back into the city of Canterlot .

"This is Queen Chrysalis , I'm requesting pick up my husband is unconscious" said Chrysalis . "Understood my queen , we are on our way" . Hours later a changeling transport arrives and the both of them get on .

Soon King Beck slasher calls in a puddle jumper to get him back to his fleet as begins his own evacuation of his entire kingdom . Which only left the lunar sisters, standing there over the massive body count of solar soldiers .

The solar guards that were inside the castle did surrender which was fine as they are as of now being taken into custody by the left over lunar soldiers .

Hours later pelicans soon picked up the lunar princesses and carried them to the lunar fleet as the entire planet of Equiss was being nuked as they saw it from space. Neither the dragon nation nor zebra kingdom made it out alive at all .

Moon City , Moon City Castle

However pelicans from the planet had the ponies of ponyville being brought to the moon for medical treatment .

Luna , sighed in relief the New Lunar Republic is free of the solar Empire , free of Celestia /Solar Flare , free of there tyrannical rule . I saved everypony , I just hope my allies made it out okay thought Luna in worry .

And soon enough the Griffin fleet made it as multiple puddle jumpers were seen flying towards there ships and taking off into hyperspace . Only King Beck slashers ship remained behind .

"This is King Beck Slasher of the Griffin Empire , we are leaving Equiss to make our mark among the stars , live free Princess Luna of the New Lunar Republic" said King Beck Slasher . His ship made a turn and went into hyperspace , no long visible to the naked eye .

Hours later the griffin ships off loaded the Appleloosa pony's , same with the changeling ships offloading the Cloudsdale ponies .

Soon the entire Lunar royal family arrived back on the moon to only see the last of the griffin fleet and the changeling fleet take off only leaving the leaders .

Thankfully Queen Chrysalis and a better looking King Metamorphosis came to stick around , as for King Beck slasher , his ship returned as did his fleet , he knew in his heart that it wasn't right to leave there allies hanging like that .

He took a puddle jumper down to the main pad and also stuck around while Pinkie Pie , Bubble berry , and Surprise all put up and everypony partied , celebrating there victory over the Solar Empire , there victory in what was now dubbed The Solar Lunar War
