The Tree Of Harmony flared with power, a shield popping into existence as umbrum crashed against its harmonic shield in waves, with another flare of power the umbrum where repelled with little effort, the trees image grinned at the enraged umbrum. "Your kind holds no power here, begone from Equestria or you will face my wrath tenfold." The response the tree got was more umbrum slamming into the shield, so the tree altered it, the next slamming wave of shadows shrieked and wailed as they impaled themselves upon spikes of pure harmonic magic which had formed from the shield, turning it into a sort of spiked dome.

An Equestrian Tesla tank rolled up upon Ponyville, and began to fire as umbrum tried to swarm it, thankfully the Equestrians had learned and began to use infantry with tesla rifles to help protect the tank while it recharged for the five seconds it needed for its cannons to fire again. Pegasi flew by at rapid speeds as they dropped bottled lightning onto large areas filled with umbrum, some however had the unfortunate fate of being shot down, the magic hitting them solidifying into jagged black crystals, causing them to fall to the ground, to either die from the fall or an umbrum catching them and turning them into a husk. Surprisingly few buildings where on fire during the chaos, at least for this small town. Thankfully most of the towns residence had been evacuated to Cloudsdale, this included the former Elements Of Harmony, so it was only guardmares within the town fighting tooth and nail for the town to remain Equestrian and undestroyed by these abominations of magic.

---------------------------------------------------Abyssinian Fleet, High Equis Orbit-----------------------------

Queen Carnelia looked at the images being displayed to her by one of the satellites that had been deployed from the starship, taking up close detailed video and images of the battles happening below. Her top general walked up next to her. "My Queen, while we are safe in orbit, we should lend assistance via our arcane warheads, the modifications to launch them from high orbit, and space itself, are complete and ready for use, we have 157 warheads we can arm and launch, though we should obviously not launch them all at one time." The flagship, which had been named Carnelia's Might floated in high orbit, its computers keeping it stable automatically, the bright black on white swastika painted onto the sides and top.

Queen Carnelia nodded. "Agreed, the situation in Saddle Arabia seems to be the worst of the bunch, I'm authorizing the launch of five high yield boosted arcane warheads in that area, they have been overrun and the umbrum are cocky that this city is now safe for them to reside in, lets prove them wrong shall we General Katze?" Carnelia grinned sitting in her chair.

General Katze saluted. "At once my Queen, may the Abyssinian Empire remain strong in our efforts against the shadows." The General walked over to the firing station and typed in a few authorization codes, and entered the coordinates as instructed, before looking back to the Queen who nodded, and thus he flipped the switch. Within seconds the cannons which had once been used to fire nuclear shells, long modified to shoot missiles instead, barked. Missiles long and fat in their shape flew from them at three times the speed of sound and entered atmosphere within mere moments, on the video feed Queen Carnelia watched the missiles streak closer and closer to their intended target, before they blew with brilliant purple mushroom clouds above what had once been Saddle Arabia, blowing the umbrum there to nonexistent ash as their shadowy forms burned instantly in the bright purple light and heat of the bombs.

Queen Carnelia smiled, a savage smile, a smile of a predator, it was sometimes easy to forget a species so fluffy and adorable was actually a deadly predator when most of the time, they simply didn't act like it, but the instincts where there. "Good....the more of that filth we cleanse from Equis, the better, once the shadows are gone we may reclaim our one city, and expand further with the help of our allies such as the Crystal Empire."

General Katze sat down in his own commanders chair and nodded, lighting a cigarette. "Agreed my Queen, completely agreed." He took a long drag, finishing the cigarette in one go before putting it out in the ash tray, and grinning as well, the light from the lamps built into the ceiling of the starship making his teeth glow.

-------------------------------------------------Abandoned Abyssinian City------------------------------------------

The Shadow Queen hissed in displeasure feeling more of her children die suddenly, she was connected to each and every one of them in a sort of hive mind, and to feel their voices go silent at once was disturbing to her, but for now she would deal with the task at hand. And she'd do so in style since on their way here they had snagged a nice trump card. She watched as black crystal spread from the arcane network that went through the massive wall, before a section of the wall was covered and broke under the strain of the crystal growing on its surface and beneath the surface. The crystal growing to freeze or damage the wall mounted cannons, or what looked like cannon at any rate, she wasn't exactly sure, but better safe than sorry.

With a large snapping noise, the section of the wall that had been broken by the strain of the crystal fell to the ground with a crash, and the Shadow Queen lit her horn with a sickly green glow, she grinned widely as she did so, her fangs white as pearls as a ground shattering roar broke through the air shattering the silence. An elder dragon flew into view, its body covered in random spots of black crystals, while its eyes glowed with a sickly green glow in them, yes, this would be a nice trump card to employ.

------------------------------------------------------Lorenzo's Empire------------------------------

I sat within a sort of, command center in my throne room looking at the cameras, the feed I was getting now I did not like whatsoever, a dragon that from what the scans showed me, was 315 feet long with a wingspan of more than a thousand feet was now heading for my Empire's busted and broken wall. The wall had been broken at the only entrance, and somehow the wall mounted guns where unable to move from their positions to fire at it, so I pressed a button and watched several salvos of small missiles fly out and strike it, the dragon roaring in annoyance before the real plan showed up. From the ground two massive slabs of metal slid into the ground and Defender Prime arose like a god from some long buried temple, I grinned. This wouldn't be easy, sure, but if the dragon could be taken out it would be much easier.

--------------------------------------------------------Umbrum-----------------------------------------------------

The Shadow Queen watched with wide eyes as a four legged pony that near matched her corrupted elder dragon in sheer size stomped over the cracked and damaged section of wall before its horn lit up with brilliant blue light and began to spin in its metal case before shooting a beam of pure energy at her dragon, knocking it back violently, its eyes glowing red. "Time to DIE you overgrown geko." The Battle of Titans was about to commence, and it wouldn't be pretty.
