"Citizens of the First Order." A Man in First Order Uniform clothing spoke.

"These three ponies have committed crimes against the First Order, the punishment? Death." The Officer said, referring to Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie.

Two Stormtrooper Executioners advanced forward. The first one grabbed the pink mare by the tail and dragged her along the grass of Ponyville's main square. He stopped then and pinned the mare to the ground by having his foot on her tail.
The second Executioner readied his Laser Axe. He positioned it right next to the throat of the mare. And just as he was about to swing it back and then forward to cut off the head he was hit. A purple magic beam had hit the Stormtrooper and made his now dead body fly and hit the fence of the Town Hall.

Four Stormtroopers opened fire on the flying alicorn that was Twilight Sparkle. The amateur flier managed to dodge the lasers somehow and landed on the ground. She blended in with the crowd. Seeing this dead Executioner, a few unicorns began to use their magic to throw rocks at the First Order troopers.

The officer saw his forces of 7 Stormtroopers and 12 Riot Troopers being outnumbered against the large crowd of perhaps a hundred ponies. He ordered his men to retreat to create a perimeter so they could await reinforcements. The perimeter would be an arrow-shaped one. Riot Troopers would be on the front stunning the ones advancing while those who advanced too much would be grabbed by the Stormtroopers and arrested.

Twilight Sparkle had done her job, she saved the life of her three friends. How she had found out that they were to be executed, was a mystery to the three. Barely anypony knew about it. And even those who knew it weren't allowed to share details of it. In the end, Rainbow Dash decided to find out how Twilight got to know about it.

"Uh, Twilight? How did you know that we were going to be executed?"

"Oh, it wasn't easy. Shining Armor apparently has a contact who had details on the execution so he got told about it and told us and we made our way as fast as we could here." Twilight replied.

"Okay..."

Just then, an exhausted Shining Armor arrived. He didn't have the luxury of wings that the Pegasus or the alicorns possessed so he had to run. To make things worse, Unicorns didn't have the same speed as Earth ponies when it came to running or the same stamina as them. But he made it still.

All of the sudden, loud thumps could be heard. They were repeating and all of them got memories, memories they'd wished to forget when the Galactic Empire deployed about 5 AT-AT's to capture the Crystal Empire. However, this time it wasn't the Empire or an AT-AT. But an All Terrain MegaCaliber Six. Armed with deadly new weapons and a long-range cannon capable of devastating the target.

"Uh... We better get out of here while we have a chance." Shining Armor said while looking at the enormous walker.

All of the ponies nodded in agreement. They slowly began to leave Ponyville. Fortunately, the AT-M6 never fired it's guns and was by the look of it only used to scare off the attacking ponies. Walking at a slow pace, it would take about 3 hours before they'd reach the Menacer. A ship that had previously stood proud blockading the world was now a crashed ship. Just like the "Inflictor" that laid crashed not far from a crashed X-Wing on the infamous planet of Jakku. Though it didn't suffer the same fate as the "Nightwing" which instead of being sent down crashing like the Menacer or the Inflictor it was instead destroyed in the cold vacuum of space. Debris had, of course, made it's way down but not all of it. In orbit of the planet, there still laid debris from all the destroyed ships during the Space Battle of Equestria.

Admiral Kejim was onboard the bridge of the Arrestor. While normally he would be studying about Equestria just like General Drant does on his free time, he was instead awaiting the arrival of Commander Valin. Commander Valin was one of the younger officers in the First Order. However, Brendol Hux, General Hux's father saw the potential that Valin had and therefore gave him the rank of Commander. It's a shame that Brendol Hux was killed by his own son because otherwise, he'd have been proud of what Valin had done for the First Order. Occupied Umbara successfully with minimal casualties and improved the relationship with the Geonosians. It's was quite a surprise when Kejim found out that the Commander was in command of an old, repurposed Imperial II-class Star Destroyer known as the "Aurora". It was named after the Imperial Project known as "Pax Aurora".

Finally, the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer appeared out of Hyperspace. But surprisingly, it wasn't the only ship. Two Dreadnought-class Heavy Cruisers were accompanying the Star Destroyer. Originally being used in the Clone Wars by the Galactic Republic and later the Galactic Empire but slightly less used. These ships if used correctly could as of matter of fact deal heavy damage and were also quite well protected. Another great support ship would be the Carrack-class Light Cruiser, brilliant when it comes to the anti-starfighter job.

The old Imperial ship from the Imperial Navy was rare in the First Order Navy. Instead, they had been replaced by the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer also sometimes called Battlecruiser instead of Star Destroyer. However, the old Imperial ships that could still be used in combat shouldn't go to waste and therefore they were given to certain Captains and Commanders. Though it was getting more common for Commanders to gain command of the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer nowadays, such as Commander Hask.

Kejim hailed the ship wishing to speak with Commander Valin and give him his orders. The transmission was received and a communications bridge was opened between the two ships.
Kejim decided to greet the young Commander.
"Greetings, Commander."

"Same wise, sir," Valin responded.

"I assume you know why you were called to here?" Kejim asked.

"No, sir."

"Let me put it simply, The Tector has left the defense and I need a second capital ship to aid in the protection. However, recently there have been lots of fights between our troops and the natives. Therefore I ask you to head down to the Atmosphere and position yourself above the town known as Ponyville."

"Understood, I shall head down there at once."

"One more thing, leave the two heavy cruisers here. They'll join the orbital defense." With that Kejim finished the conversation.

The Aurora moved down and entered the Atmosphere. It's thrusters slowly began to brake. The Star Destroyer would position itself perfectly, in fact, it was positioned high enough to perform a bombardment if needed.

A Stallion, going by the name of simply Valiant was walking in the streets of Manehattan. The Stallion had a dark-orange coat with his mane being saturated merlot red. He was a Unicorn and wandering. Due to the recent attack on the First Order in Ponyville, the First Order had increased its presence slightly. Manehattan was one of the few cities with First Order troopers in it. But there still was Queen Iron Hoof's Royal Guard.

Valiant neither supported Queen Iron Hoof or the First Order, he sought to destroy them both. He was wearing a coat that had deep pockets, deep enough to store an E-11. Which he by coincidence carried on him. The Stallion was currently on the main street. Where a patrol of Stormtroopers was. He counted at least 4 Stormtroopers and a Squad Leader wearing a Black Pauldron. They were standing on the other side of the road. He began to approach them and was then just a couple of meters from them. He was blending in with bystanders waiting for the red light to turn green. Once it did he began to walk, but slowly. He waited until he was in the middle of the crosswalk and the crowd had passed him. And once it did he removed his coat and pulled out the E-11 with his magic. Valiant had trained with the gun for the previous month and knew how to use it.

Using his magic he pulled the trigger and hit one of the Stormtroopers in the head. The body of the Stormtrooper fell down dead to the sidewalk. He pulled the trigger once again but missed. Once the three Stormtroopers began to fire he began to run. He ran as fast he could towards an alleyway where he hid. Even though the Stormtroopers were quite far away, he could barely hear what the Squad Leader said.

"Requesting Air Support, we've detected an armed Civilian and we have a man down!"

The Stormtroopers passed the alleyway. Valiant slowly walked out having hidden the E-11 in the alleyway so he could go get it another time. The sidewalks were empty as the ponies had fled the scene upon seeing and hearing Valiant shoot. But there were some ponies still walking, not that many though.

A TIE Fighter would fly overhead about 5 meters above the buildings. Valiant identified it as a TIE/sf. Meaning it came from the Special Forces branch. He began to walk casually as if nothing had happened, he was still looking at the TIE but just as it was turning around he bumped into another pony. This bump, unfortunately, was heard by the Stormtroopers who turned around and saw Valiant.

"Suspect has been found! Engaging!" The Squad Leader said.

Valiant began to run. Though the Stormtroopers weren't firing yet. But then the Squad Leader issued an order to the civilians blocking a clear shot.

"DROP DOWN!"

The surrounding civilians went down onto the ground and Valiant was now vulnerable. The three Stormtroopers began to fire. Valiant was dodging the shots and once he was out of range he began to run slower. But he would regret his decision. The roaring noises coming from the TIE fighter were approaching fast. He then heard it firing. The ground was shaking and rubble coming from the destroyed road was coming everywhere upon Valiant. Then the final strike hit and Valiant was sent flying 20 meters. He was still alive but heavily injured. He was unable to move.

The three Stormtroopers approached Valiant. The Squad Leader aimed his F-11D blaster at the head of the injured pony. Valiant knew what was about to happen, he was defeated. But he had fulfilled his promise of not going down without a fight. He turned around slowly to face his killer. The Stallion looked down the barrel of the blaster.

All was quiet, the three shots came from the blaster. Valiant had been shot three times and was now dead. The brave pony that had for the past week been a trouble for the First Order was finally dead. The crowd that had watched his death looked on. They knew that was the prize for attacking the First Order, but one thing they didn't know was that they just learned a lesson. A lesson in Sacrifice. Without Sacrifice then you can't win a war. Even with a bigger army.

"Resume Patrol." The squad leader ordered the two remaining men.

Author's Notes:

I hope you all liked Chapter 6.
If not then tell me why. No really, tell me why. I'm open to all criticism. (just don't send death threats or anything like that)
One more thing. To simplify things I won't go very much into detail on how the First Order military works. Otherwise, the chapters would be twice as much longer and that's not my style. (My style is short chapters so that way the reader won't get bored if they're reading an 8k words chapter)

Also, I don't know why but while proofreading I was feeling really dizzy so I might have missed some stuff here and there.
