---------------- Finale: Part 2 ----------------

"Well doesn't that fuck all." Celestia said softly, looking at the black mass of changelings covering the entire plain East of Canterlot.

"I'll say. This is worse than 5776." Luna said, walking around a stunned Lily and Twilight to the other side of Celestia. "The guard counts approximately 750,000... And with the details Lily has shared with Trixie and ourselves in the past, we can expect at least five lieutenants."

"Five?" Lily perked up, tearing her gaze away from the sight below. "There were eight of us, last I remember... And I get the feeling Chrysalis has more of them spread further out. There's no way there are only five lieutenants." Luna and Celestia shared a glance, but smiled and shook their heads together. Twilight stood at Lily's side. "What?" Lily asked, looking between the two.

"We're sorry, Lily, but this is neither the time nor the place. You and Twilight need to flee."

"FLEE?!" Twilight burst out. "But... No! Princess, I can't! I'm supposed to be by your side! I can fight! You know just as well as any, I can cast a firestorm spell with the best of them!"

"Exactly," Celestia headed her off. The princess waved a glowing hand over her body, summoning clothes for herself. She was shrouded in a pure white dress, the kind that shimmered and glowed with an almost blinding light in the mid-day sun. Lily actually had to squint to focus properly. "And that's why you need to flee."

"I don't underst-"

"First of all, Twilight." Celestia wheeled away from the balcony, padding towards the double doors leading into the hallway. "You don't need to understand anything I tell you. You forget I am your ruler, first and foremost." Twilight bit her tongue at the reprimand, and even Lily felt the sting of the implied disobedience. "But secondly, I am your mentor and teacher. And I care for you." The doors swung open on their own accord as the four women swept into the hall. Lily felt only marginally aware that she was still naked... Luna and Celestia were now dressed. Still, Twilight was bare.

"You carry in your womb the hope for a new world, Twilight. One birthed in a primal magic older than I. Older than Luna. Older than any one person you have ever known. It may be as old as time itself. Again, I don't know the why or the how, but I think I know something that can give you the answers you need." Celestia dipped into the double room, where Lily was only all too familiar with the texture of the luxurious couches, of the bed that was sunken into the floor... Their clothes still lay scattered about from the previous night's endeavours, and Lily couldn't fight the smile that spread.

"Lily." Luna beckoned her over.

"Aah, you stay with me, Twilight." Celestia said, plucking her student's wrist.

"B-ut-" Twilight lifted a hand to Lily, but they were too far away to grasp one another. Luna pulled Lily towards a door that Lily wasn't entirely sure had been there before... Twilight and Celestia walked towards the balcony. Lily managed to mouth the words 'I love you' before she watched Celestia pull her student behind a glimmering wall of light. Magic. Her heart sunk, not knowing what was going on.

"I don't know nearly as much as my sister does," Luna said, drawing Lily's attention away... "But I do know what she speaks of. If only vaguely." She pulled Lily through the door from before, and Lily gasped at the sight. In this room was probably the largest wardrobe anyone had ever been privy to.

Rarity would have reached orgasm at the mere sight.

"You two have many unanswered questions... And many more doubts, I'm sure." Luna continued talking as she pulled Lily through the long aisles of clothes and dresses, all of them neatly hung on individual hangars. The spray of colors and fabric was a rather intense display, one that Lily struggled to wrap her mind around. She fought to focus on Luna's words as they moved further, deeper. "But the short of it is this: You and Twilight need. To. Stay. Safe." Luna stopped her, stressing on every word. Lily blinked at the almost entirely different woman before her. Where Luna had always struck Lily as a sultry, sexy woman, the kind who would get what she wanted from anyone with a single hormone in their body by batting an eyelash, she was someone almost entirely different now. Powerful, dark, tall, and frightening. Haunting, even...

"The prophecy Celestia speaks of is old. Archaic. The kind of old that makes me look like a budding teenager. A toddler, even. It's been around for eons. Withstood the passing of entire kingdoms that have risen and fallen in naught but a blink of the eye. Now that it's come to pass, the whole of Equestria is about to change... Again, I fear..." Luna released Lily and started shuffling through the hangars of clothes. Lily saw they had moved into what would appear to be an entirely different section of the wardrobe... The colors here were all very earthy. Browns and reds, greens and muted yellows... Normal clothes.

"Rgh. I wish there was a way to sum this up for you without fifteen years of study and a tutor more suitable than I..." Luna tossed hangars and clothes aside haphazardly in her search. "Prophesy doesn't always happen the way we think it may... Normally, the words are very diluted and... Hard to comprehend... Like it doesn't happen the way we think it will... When we get a prophesy that sounds like kingdoms will fall and go to war and many lives will be lost, it could just be about something so nonsensical... Like a termite mound falling over..." Luna chuckled then, picking one dress up to survey it, then tossing the fabric aside. "Like that time long, long ago... In 2253... Celestia thought the naga would rise up and overthrow us, but it turned out to be one shrimp in the ocean managing to kill a fish..." Lily blinked.

"Is prophesy that vague?" Lily asked, her mind still reeling from the flurry of events this morning. The image of Ajax, even, hadn't left her mind just yet...

"Even worse... There have been many more incidents than you think. Prophesy is guarded very closely by Celestia and myself. It's more than raise the sun and the moon that we do, Lily... You would do well to remember that. Aah! Here we go!" Luna tossed a green, tight-fitting tunic at Lily. It looked to be hundreds of years old, but was still as well-kept as a fine dress reserved for special occasions. "But this particular prophesy... It's the kind you would think it is..." Luna began digging around again, her words coming to Lily through many layers of rustling fabric. "Powerful. World-changing. Old." She emerged, her hair slightly frazzled as she held up a pair of tights to the light. "Hmm. No." She dove back in.

"The only peculiar thing about it is... It's very specific, and very clear! AHA!" A pair of what looked to be cargo pants flew over the racks of clothes at Lily, hitting her full in the face.

"Pfft! The hell!"

"Put them on. Time is short." Luna emerged, straightening her own dress at the hips. A stark contrast to Celestia's, Luna wore a dark gown that seemed to suck the light around it, made the princess look alluring and frightening at the same time. Shadow incarnate. Lily stepped into the pants, hopping one one foot as she followed after Luna. "You and Twilight must remain safe. If this prophesy doesn't come to pass, the world descends into a very dark and forlorn time."

"How so?" Lily asked, finally pulling the pants up to her waist. Luna stopped and looked at Lily, her expression surprisingly calm and serene.

"Celestia and I will die."

-------------------------------

"No more questions, Twilight Sparkle." Celestia and her student emerged from the barrier back into the room with a very somber Luna and Lily. The latter was dressed in a tight-fitting green tunic that left her arms bare but supported her chest without the need for a bra. The fabric flowed down past her waist, hanging mid-thigh and making Lily feel rather graceful... The pants hugged her legs as tight as they could without ever really touching them, and had a myraid of pockets. For what, Lily could only guess. One of them looked like it could hold an entire sword... Lily wondered how old they were.

"But Celestia, I-"

"What part of no more questions is unclear to you?" Celestia asked, turning on her student. Twilight silenced herself, clutching something to her chest tightly. "If you have any more, study those books. I promise, they hold all the answers you're going to need for now. Go, Twilight. You and Lily MUST flee the city. Luna and I will help you as much as we can, but with the missing lieutenants and only half the changeling force outside our city, Canterlot may not be as safe as you think it is. The reserves are on their way, but they may arrive into a warzone. Was I unclear when I told you how much danger you were in? Did I not make my plight known when I explained that you and Lily are subject to a brand of magic completely unfamiliar to me?" Twilight whimpered, and Lily was glad to see she was dressed again. In an outfit not dissimilar to Lily's own. Twilight's top, though, was purple, and left her back bare.

"Lily, Twilight, you must flee now." Luna urged them both towards the door. "Celestia and I must defend the front while the guard clears the streets-"

"Alone?! I know you're powerful, but the two of you against the entire horde?!" Twilight stammered.

"TWILIGHT!" Celestia's voice roared out with enough force to stop even Luna. "STILL YOUR TONGUE! YOU WILL DO WELL TO HEED MY WORDS WHEN I SAY THAT YOU. MUST. FLEE!" The change happened in an instant. In a flash of blinding light, Celestia was gone, replaced by a tall and beautiful woman, her skin aglow with a golden essence. Her hair, which normally flowed as if in a breeze, now rippled like the surface of a pond, and could have been woven of pure sunlight. What's more, she was suddenly much, much more frightening.

Gone was the benevolent, serene ruler. Before the three women now stood a creature of pure power. Celestia's wingspan nearly bridged the entire room, and her hands were already afire with a keen light. The thrumming of magic was audible. Lily's eyes were wide at the sight, though she quickly had to squint them. Blinding fire, on par with the sun's heat and intensity, erupted from her hands. Celestia held twin orbs of pure, radiant energy. Twilight gasped as Celestia spun about towards the east, and cast both orbs straight towards the wall of the castle. The pure, seething energy melted straight through brick and stone, howling with malefic intent. Through the gaping holes left behind, Lily could watch as the twin orbs spun off into the distance, landing somewhere out in the black mass of changeling bodies.

"Girls. Come." Luna ushered them both out, Lily and Twilight stunned at the display of power before them. Celestia advanced towards the twin holes she had just made, creating two more with another pair of brilliant spells. And another. Her bare feet walked over the molten stone of the gap she had created, her wings shearing through the stone as she walked. Plaster and mortar erupted around them as she stepped onto thin air. Lily heard the shrieking of another powerful spell as Celestia disappeared. "Come ON, Lily!" Luna tugged her by the back of her tunic, making Lily gasp as she was pulled out of the bedroom, into the sitting room, and finally into the hallway.

"Lily, are you okay?" Twilight asked, both women finally regaining their feet and following after Luna as she walked quickly down the wide hallway.

"As okay as I'm going to be. What do you have there?" Lily asked, rubbing her neck as she jogged a few steps to catch up with the longer-legged, dark princess.

"Two books... Both from Celestia's private library." Twilight said softly. "Lily, there's... There's so much knowledge in there... I pray Celestia lets me back in there some day..." The blush on Twilight's face was radiant, and Lily couldn't help but smile at her love's affinity for books.

"Then pray that you and I make it out of here alive." Lily grumbled.

"OH thank GOODNESS!" Luna threw her hands in the air, not even looking back at them. "You finally understand. Sheesh, took you long enough! Come on." Lily bit back a scathing remark at the sarcastic demeanor, following Luna out of the private wing and into the castle proper. Here, things were much more hectic. Guards and palace staff milled about, rushing and jostling. There was a sense of order about it, though... Lily watched six guards, in two rows of three, sprint full-speed down a side hallway, never once breaking rank... And still, guards and staff made way for Luna and her charge, some of them bowing or saluting. Luna kept her head held high, her jaw set as she strode past them all.

"Wow..." Twilight whispered.

"Right?" Luna teased. "We're very proud of our guard. But they've got a very long campaign ahead of them, I'm afraid." Twilight gasped in sudden realization.

"Princess! The chimeras!"

"That's right, Twilight... We've been embroiled in skirmishes to the north for a very long time. With this recent development, we have to recall all our emplacements and have them return immediately. In three months time, this will be a three-way battle. What's worse, there's talk of unrest to the East..."

"DRAGONS?!" Twilight cried out, stiffening for a brief second. She caught up with a stumble, though Luna's face was much more stoic when she glanced back at them.

"I'm afraid so. Something with their last migration went wrong, though there's rumor of foul-play on part of the harpies..." Luna offered a slight chuckle at the play on words. She turned down a larger hallway, the massive front doors to the palace now looming before them. "Alright, girls. This is it." Luna stopped on the threshold of the palace, turning to them both. "North, our fronts are failing and will soon be as far back as Trottingham, or even Canterlot itself. To the East... Well, you saw. The West is changeling territory as well. Girls, the only safe place for you to go now is South." Luna leaned in close. "I hear tell the Apple family has relatives in Appleloosa, which may be about as far removed from the struggle as you can get. Perhaps you can find solace there. If not, travel further. To the ocean, if you must." She straightened her back, looking down at them both. "Cliche as this may sound, the fate of Equestria does ride on your shoulders, girls. If I could promise to keep you safe here, I would. But I cannot. Celestia and I must hold out as long as we can. Important as you two are, there are things here that would be dangerous, should they fall into the wrong hands. Things like our brother. Like Celestia's library. You two, we can protect by removing from the mess. But things like those cannot be moved."

"Luna, what about the Elements of Harmony-?" Luna's serene frown was enough to stop Twilight there.

"Rainbow Dash is on assignment with the Wonderbolts to the East, past the horde. Applejack and Pinkie Pie are helping as much as they can to prepare Ponyville's evacuation. Rarity is on her way here already. And you all know how well Fluttershy would deal with a conflict of this proportion... No, Twilight... I'm afraid the elements won't be enough to save Equestria this time." Luna stepped forward and planted her hands on both woman's shoulders, pulling them together. Almost as if by instinct, Lily's hand wrapped around Twilight's.

"Go south. Don't take the train. Walk. Camp. Twilight, you know how to survive off the land, and Lily, I'm sure you're no stranger as well. Pack light, travel fast, and do not. I repeat." She lifted their chins to her face, stressing the point very well with her voice. "Do. Not. Come back to Canterlot. Anything futher north than Fillydelphia is unsafe." There was a moment's pause as Lily and Twilight nodded. They squeezed their hands, and through all the doubt and fear in Lily's mind, she managed a slight nod and a warm smile. A thought crossed her mind, making the smile grow. It seemed infectious. Lily saw Luna's face light up as well. Twilight grinned. They all exchanged looks. Even passing guards smiled at the sight of their princess.

"We'll miss you, Luna." Twilight said softly, wrapping her princess in a hug. The three of them embraced for a few moments, and in the scents of Luna's hair, she found comfort. When the princess pulled away, her smile was calm and serene once more.

"Get going. Do not stop until you've reached at least Appleloosa. If you are still in danger, go further. To the ocean. If that fails, travel east into the mountains. If they chase you that far, cross the mountains. If their eyes still watch your backs, turn north into harpy territory. While they won't kill you, they will imprison you. But they will kill changelings. Ruthlessly. Harpies may be your only allies if you must leave Equestria." Luna turned and ushered them out of the palace doors. "And for the love of all things in the sky," Luna called after them. "Stay SAFE!" Lily glanced back, but Luna was gone. It was just them now.

Alone.

Against the world.

Soldiers rushed about them as the two women descended the steps of the castle into new lives. A new world.

A world ablaze with the inferno of war.

--------------------

"THERE THEY ARE!" Lily and Twilight's heads snapped up at the sound of a voice. They had been stealthily stealing from shadow-to-shadow for the past two hours. The sun was low in the sky, casting long, dark areas of refuge across all the streets in Canterlot. Which were eerily quiet. Windows and doors were locked, drapes drawn as families huddled together. No businesses were open. Martial law was in effect. Anyone caught outside of their home would be returned forcefully. Already, skirmishes were breaking out across the city. Lily and Twilight had come across a group of four dead changelings heaped atop one guard, black blood mingling with the red of the dead avian. His spear remained clutched in his fists. Lily grimaced and Twilight scrunched her nose, but they pressed on.

Now, though, their cover was blown. "Shit," Twilight cursed as a group of four guards ran towards them.

"Miss Twilight! Miss Liliana-" The guards faltered as Twilight cast the first bolt of magical energy at them.

"Her name is Lily!" Twilight growled, shooting a second. Lily pulled her hand firmly, yanking Twilight away from the scrambling guards. The first had already shifted back into a changeling, writhing as he clawed at the hole in his own chest. The second fell on it's face, dead. The other two, shocked, bolted in opposite directions, splitting up as Lily and Twilight ran down the southern street they were already on. In the confusion following that event, Lily and Twilight fled at least three blocks. Ducking into a darker doorway, they took a moment to catch their breath and survey the street. Soon enough, the two changelings leftover, still disguised as guards, thundered around the corner. Lily cursed and ducked away, but Twilight kept her gaze fixed on the two as she began weaving magic. The glow in her hands was muted, lost in the deep shadows of the doorway. Lily saw a thin glimmer of thread stretch between her hands as she wove the magic.

"What are you-" Twilight glanced up at Lily, silencing her as she whispered. The thread grew and grew, and soon was coiled around Twilight's hand several times. it was so thin, it seemed to disappear in portions. With a brief glow of slightly brighter magic, Twilight flicked her hand out. The cord stretched thin across the narrow street, affixing to the brick wall of the building opposite. Twilight did the same to the edge of the doorway closest to the changelings, who were arguing about direction.

"Come on." Lily saw then what Twilight was planning. Both women took one more breath, nodded, and bolted from the doorway.

"THERE!"

"GO!" Both changelings spotted the women breaking cover from the doorway and gave chase... Right into the razor wire. The sickening, wet sound of flesh rent open and blood spilling chased the two down the street. They ran for four blocks, ducking into a side-street and under the cover of a low-hanging tree. On the way, they had passed another dead guard, and shortly after, three more in a group. It seemed the closer to the edge of the city they got, the more there were...

"Lily, we're going to have to break through at some point."

"I know. Let me think." Lily said softly, closing her eyes. They breathed hard, both of them working at a solution. The faint sound of a clash and a holler caught there ears. Perking up, they looked down the street. It seemed the fight was taking place just around the corner... Lily and Twilight froze as a hum broke out in the air... It built to a head, then...

KRA-THOOM!

"Woah!" Twilight gasped as a massive bolt of purple light erupted from around the corner, thundering down the street as it tore up pavement and stone, tossing chunks of it into the air. "That's Shining Armor!" Twilight gasped, scrambling to her feet. Lily followed, knowing it was no changeling that could cast a spell of that magnitude. They turned the corner to the frightening visage of Shining Armor, armed with a knife in one hand and a glowing spell in the other. Two changelings darted towards him from behind...

"Shining!" Twilight gasped. With a twist, he spun around and buried the knife hilt-deep in the skull of one changeling, then ignited the other with his spell. Screaming, the immolated changeling fell to the ground, his burning arms batting at the growing flames.

"Twilly!" Shining Armor smiled as he yanked his knife free with a sickening squelch. "Celestia sent word! I'm helping you push through! Cover me!" He tossed his blade aside, both hands now ignited with his signature purple glow. The crackle of energy surrounded him as he turned back around towards the south. Twilight's hands jumped upwards, wrapping around one changeling with her own magic as it leapt at him from the shadows. Lily dashed forward, shifting as she went. Twilight twisted her hands, the telekinetic field snapping her changeling's neck, just as Lily's hard naga scales swept inbetween Shining Armor and another attacking changeling. Fangs bounced off her hide as she sunk her own teeth into the soft flesh of a shifted changeling, disguised as a guard. Black, viscous blood spurted into her mouth, but with a mighty heave, she threw her target against the far wall. He crunched sickeningly, accompanied by a hiss from Lily.

"Here goes!" With a sickening *WHUMP* in the air, Shining Armor threw out his spell. Lily gasped as the shockwave washed over her, made her ears ring. "There! Go South, now! I'll follow as long as I can, but don't expect me to get you to Fillydelphia." He stooped and picked up his knife, waving Twilight along. Together, all three of them ran southwards towards the edge of the city. Lily shifted on the fly, her long, serpentine body replaced by her own legs. They left the business district behind, running down streets with more and more homes and the stray grocery store or two. For one reason or another, the skirmishes between guards and changelings didn't even bat an eyelash at them.

"Concealment spell." Shining Armor huffed as they ran. "If we don't engage them, they won't engage us. Also, we have to stay on the path."

"What path?" Lily panted. She felt tired already. The death and fighting was already taking it's toll... From the sound of it, they would have a lot more of it to do before they were free.

"You can't see the path?" Twilight asked.

"I'm a changeling, not a magi... I can't see shit." Lily gasped, feeling winded.

"No sense, then..." Shining Armor skidded to a stop, followed by Lily then Twilight.

"Why are you stopping? The spell's going to-"

"Wear off. I know." Shining Armor twined his fingers behind his head, breathing deep. Hardly two blocks behind them, a heated battle between a group of at least twenty changelings and five guards was still raging. "We're going to run ourselves ragged if we don't stop. You two have a long way to go before you can rest. At least three more miles of city. Rest now, while I'm here, so you can make it at least to Woodsman's Haven." Lily groaned and padded to the street curb, plopping herself down and breathing heavy. Twilight leaned against a nearby car, while Shining Armor scanned the streets. They were unnoticed so far... Lily looked up when Twilight nudged her with her foot.

"You okay?" She asked softly. Lily offered a brave smile and a nod.

"As okay as I'm going to be." She muttered.

It was all a blur. In the span of a day, Lily had confronted her true feelings for Twilight, fought her two worst nightmares, unlocked a deep and primal magic older than Celestia herself, and killed changelings that more than likely used to be under her very own command...

Shocked didn't even begin to describe it.

"It's so surreal..." Lily groaned. "Like I'm going to wake up any moment and be safe and warm at home, in bed..."

"Tell me about it... Just yesterday I was buried under a mountain of text on extrapular reasoning on a linear line of logic, and now I'm... Well, I'm pregnant."

"WHAT?!" Shining Armor gasped and whirled around to face the two of them, his eyes wide. "What the fuck?!"

"Oh. Yeah." Twilight flushed and glanced down at a grinning Lily. "Long story short, I'm pregnant. With two children, Luna says." Shining glanced around again and leaned in towards Twilight, his eyes wide.

"How?" He asked.

"I don't know, Shining... I really don't..." Twilight groaned. She leaned over and took Lily's hand in her own, the two women sharing a warm smile despite their own fears, their short breath and rapidly devolving lives. Shining Armor looked between the two of them, sharing as tender a moment as they could while the cries of battle rang out two short blocks away.

"Come on, then." He said. "No way I'm keeping my pregnant little sister in the middle of what is about to be the biggest warzone in Equestria..." He took Lily's other hand and hauled her to her feet. Breather over, they set out much slower now, sticking to shadows between houses. They would sprint from one house, vault a fence, and duck into the shadows of another house. A contingent of what had to be thirty troops advanced towards their position, marching down the street. Despite not being a magi, Lily could sense the taint of a changeling aura on the large group. They all laid prone in the shadows behind a row of bushes and held their breath as the column marched past.

"Go." Shining Armor said, letting the two lead him over the next fence. It remained late evening, though... For the next hour, they ducked from long shadow to shadow, working south towards the edge of the city. Homes became more and more far apart, fences began disappearing... They hadn't passed a store in twenty minutes. Lily knew why the sun wasn't setting. Celestia was embroiled in a fight. She couldn't set the sun properly.

"Wait." Shining Armor whispered at them as they were just about to leave the shadow of one home and enter another. "Something's wrong." Twilight and Lily stayed crouched in the long shadow, looking at the wide-open road.

"What's up?" Twilight said quietly. "Hang on... Wait..." Twilight suddenly closed her eyes and raised her hands, waving slightly. Lily's heart jumped at the sudden motion, thinking Twilight was just about to give away their position in the shadows. Her next words, though, calmed her. "Relax. It's Rarity."

"How can you tell?" Shining Armor asked, his brow furrowed.

"The link." Twilight tapped her temple as she stood up, smiling down the road a ways. Lily followed her line of sight, and spotted two hooded figures walking down the sidewalk of the wide-open road.

"Right. Leave it to my sister to develop a brand new spell to allow the Elements of Harmony to communicate..." Shining Armor muttered, dusting Lily off as they followed Twilight towards the open area in front of the house.

"Huhn. Wait, who's that with her?" Lily asked softly, joining Twilight as they walked out to the middle of the road.

"Who else?" Twilight smiled and raised her hands at Rarity and her friend, both of them waving back. "It's Nyralith."

Lily froze.

"Nyralith?" Shining Armor asked. "Who's that?" Twilight sighed and turned to her brother.

"Rememeber when Rarity was going to get married long ago, and I went to her wedding, but it was cancelled?"

"Oh, that! I remember that! I wasn't there, but I remember when we got the true form herb after Lily brought it back. Completely changed the way our checkpoints worked. I never did thank you for that, Lily... Eer, Lily?"

Down the road, Rarity and Nyralith had stopped.

The whole world might as well have stopped.

In a breath, two nightmares descended upon one another, their black, sinewy forms clashing in a sickening display of twisted, morphed limbs, and claws.

Twilight and Rarity screamed.

----------------- Notes from the Author -----------------

And so, the war begins. Two Changeling Primes square off in front of their loved ones while Equestria begins to burn around them.

I understand many of these events are difficult to follow. I'm afraid my descriptive prowess is not on-par with Terry Goodkind or some other fantastic writer, so things will be confusing for the next few chapters. Hopefully, between the 5 remaining chapters of the finale and Twilight's own portion of The Untold Chapters, we'll see things from all the angles that there needs to be.

In addition, with the completion of this chapter, the whole of A Different Kind of Love has broken the 300k word mark. Between the original story and The Lost Chapters, the total sits at just under 303k.

Fuck.

Yes.

A fan of mine dared me that I couldn't write a fic as long as Fallout: Equestria.

I think I can prove him wrong.
