[UN-IHSA Meeting]

Inside the assembly hall, UN representatives were speaking to Princess Celestia. It has been a terrifying night ever since the terrorist attacks as military in most countries were mobilized near CBs. Still people flocked to be converted for personal reasons. Nevertheless, the representatives of humanity turned to Lyra Heartstrings.

“I do not know about PER, I do not know what happened at the CB,” she stated with tears, “I am deeply sorry for the loss of loved ones and many others.”

Many UN-IHSA representatives just looked at her waiting for more.

“But I must say, that it should not happen again if we want peace between humanity and Equestria,” she stated, “I suggest the shutdown of all CBs and the protection of borders.”

The UN-IHSA representatives stared in approval before she continued.

“Equestria should look more into PER and the terrorism while we look into the HLF.”

She smiled once before stating, “So we will be in peace.”

Many of the UN-IHSA representatives stood up clapping and approving of her statements.

Suddenly the main screen room monitor came up with a Princess Celestia whose face was unhappy. She looked at Lyra and smiled before looking at the humans and glaring. This made Lyra feel uneasy as she spoke.

“I will not be peaceful with terrorists,” she stated bluntly.

This caused a UN-IHSA representative to lose the control and stand up facing the monitor.

“We are not working with terrorists because we are not this ‘HLF’!” he shouted then regained his calmness.

“And I am not working with PER,” she replied in a calm demeanor before continuing, “The attack on my subjects and MY CB is unacceptable.”

“Princess,” Lyra spoke up, “With all due respect your majesty, the converted new foals and the ponies that immigrated here are no longer your subjects unless-”

“Lyra Heartstrings, you will remain quiet, or you will lose your ambassadorship,” the Solar Princess scolded to which Lyra closed her mouth and bowed.

Princess Celestia then turned to the humans and spoke, “I warn you that this will not go unnoticed.”

The monitor transmission ended leaving UN-IHSA representatives bounded to speak amongst them while Lyra stood on the stage tearing up. She hid her face on the desk until she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up to see Hillary with a sad frown and she quickly hugged him. The military captain blushed and hugged her back.

“Ready to get back to the base?” he asked to which she nodded.

The two left without saying another word.

[Activation of HRC]

[Equestria: Alliance with PER]

Princess Celestia and Princess Luna with two Royal Guards were inside the majestic throne room.

“Those humans think they can attack my subjects?” Princess Celestia snorted towards Luna.

Luna has grown accustomed to fluent English that her old Canterlot Royal Voice was no longer needed.

“I do not think that you should blame all of humanity on this sister Tia,” she stated.

The Solar Tyrant shook her head and glared, “I need to protect my subjects, leave me to think.”

Princess Luna got up and trotted out of the room leaving Celestia to ponder. An evil grin formed on the Princess’ face, one that has not been seen in her.

“Sir Sharp!” she shouted at one of the guards causing him to jump.

“Yes your majesty?” he asked.

She gave the soft motherly smile to him and spoke, “Bring in the Elements of Harmony for the activation of the Human Resistance Control spell and contact PER for an alliance.”

The guard nodded but then spoke, “Why PER?”

“To control these humans and to show them their place,” she stated.

[PER: Alliance with Equestria]

The PER Generals and Commanders sat at a meeting table in a white walled room. They were talking about how to attack the UN-IHSA fleet surrounding the border. They already found a way to use the HRC on the new foals by using a specific potion on a group that was unstable.

“Now, if we just use our stolen A-10s on the fleet, they will at least move to a position that will leave them vulnerable,” a commander said.

“I do not think that the ships will move to a position that quickly without taking most of us out,” a general said.

A soldier stepped in saluting, “Sir, we have an incoming transmission.”

“From whom?” a different general asked.

“The-the princess!” the soldier replied causing a small stir.

“Silence!” Lee Ford, the founder shouted causing all of them to become silenced. “Put her through!”

The soldier nodded and walked to a screen turning the transmission on. The PER commanders were met with a smiling princess and they bowed.

“I think I can assist you,” the princess stated.

“Now, we have the alliance and you have more HRC potions to convert new foals that will attack humans trying to convert them on my command,” the Solar Princess stated.

“Yes, and we have the reinforcements to deter the UN-IHSA fleet from the barrier,” the PER founder stated smiling.

“Thank you, we shall show humanity true friendship,” Princess Celestia said.

“Indeed,” Lee replied ending the transmission.

Princess Celestia looked at the Elements of Harmony, all but Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie smiling, with their elements were glowing.

“Transfer HRC controls now,” she said to them.

Meanwhile…outside of the throne room, Princess Cadence was watching in horror by a crack in the door. When she heard hoof steps towards the door, she quickly teleported away, leaving no trace.

[UN-IHSA Defense Fleet]

[Royal Guard, New Foal, and PER Jointed Attack]

A bunch of stationary cruisers and destroyers belonging to UN-IHSA, the British Royal Navy, the Australian Royal Navy, the Filipino Navy, the U.S. Navy, the Japanese Navy, and others waved their respected colors. The lead ship, the U.S. and UN-IHSA jointed Defender (DDGZ-1), a Defender-class Destroyer, the newest class armed with plasma weaponry including the Mark 6.5” Plasma Turret, M-1000 Plasma Cannons, Plasma-Phalanx Cannons, Plasma-V Cell Missiles, and other armaments, was guarding the barrier. The captain, John C. Grant was on the bridge awaiting orders while reading Fallout: Equestria.

“And Littlepip wanted to take Party Min-tals…” he trailed off.

He put down the book yawning and looked at a computer screen until a sailor shouted, “Captain!”

“Yes sir?” he replied.

“Incoming figures identified as new foal pegasi from the barrier along with a flock of unmarked A-10s.”

“What-” he started to question but was interrupted.

*Boom, Boom!*

“Sir!” another sailor shouted, “One of the A-10s fired a missile at our ships!”

“We are under attack!” a different sailor shouted.

A new foal pegasi quickly came close to a cruiser that was next to the Defender. In its hooves, it held three items, a glowing orange orb, a potion serum, and a green colored potion serum.

“What are those two that pegasi is holding?” the captain asked.

“Get down!” a sailor said when the pegasi dropped the orange orb on the cruiser. The cruiser immediately exploded at the area where the orb hit.

“Shit!” he shouted when another pegasi dropped a green serum on a sailor.

The sailor screamed turning quickly into a new foal and grinning.

“Join me in Ponydom!” it said giggling.

The new foal suddenly attacked another sailor but was gunned down quickly.

“Turn on the alarms and man your battle stations!” the captain shouted.

All alarms on all ships turned on.

”All hands, man your battle stations!” speakers flared.

Phalanx cannons aimed towards the sky and started to fire ear-piercing rounds of plasma shells towards the ponies and A-10s. Plasma V-Cell missiles launched from their positions downing groups of pegasi.

“Sir, group 1 is forming the defensive line to occupy sectors 5.6 around the ordinance 3.2!” the X.O. of the Defender shouted to the captain.

An A-10 suddenly crashed into a cruiser across the Defender when it was shot down causing a leakage in the fuel systems. The cruiser exploded instantly.

“They just sunk the Virgo!” John C. Grant shouted.

“Sir, another wave incoming!”

John looked outside the bridge window and saw many pegasi new foals wearing PER or guard armor in the bloody water. There was too many to count along with the A-10s now identified as PER. Nevertheless, more new foals were quickly heading from the barrier to attack escorted by A-10s.

“All ships!” a radio shouted, ”Retreat to fallback positions at ordinances to defensive mode ZULU positions at 90 degrees to the barrier aim.”

All the other ships started to turn, setting their course away from the barrier. John looked in disbelief and just nodded to the ship driver to turn with them. All of the ships turned into one massive line of a convoy with the lead ship Defender in the back. While the ships retreated towards the safe zone, the back ships covered fire and downed most of the targets. The assault was still however relentless.

“Sir!” the X.O. shouted.

“Yes!?” John shouted back.

“The safe zone has defense cruisers to reinforce us,” the X.O. stated.

“Good, we can surprise attack them there,” John replied.

A sailor spoke up, “Sir, they enemy forces are turning away.”

John just looked at the sailor skeptically and just sighed, “Continue to course safe point at ZULU.”

The X.O. nodded and gave the same orders.

“I want the UN-IHSA to know we were just attacked by PER and Equestria,” John said to the communication officer, “Tell them we lost three ships, the Redeemer, the Virgo, and the Striker.”

[UN-IHSA Meeting]

[UN-IHSA: Alliance with HLF]

The attacks on the UN-IHSA Defense fleet didn’t go unnoticed. The UN-IHSA disapproved of the treatment that Equestria has been dishing out to them. Lyra Heartstrings tried reassuring humanity that peace will be achieved but many humans were starting to see an inevitable war that could take place. To ease tensions with the ambassadors, Lyra Heartstrings has temporarily moved into the base with Bon Bon. However, the UN has constructed a new plan.

Assembly speaker Amy was speaking into a microphone, “I do not know how a war will turn out, but it will not turn out good.”

The UN-IHSA assembly members just sighed until she spoke up again.

“While we exclaimed we are not going to work with terrorists, we have no choice,” she stated, ”To ensure the survival of mankind, we have allied ourselves with some of the HLF and gave them a division in the UN-IHSA and with their new logo.”

She then asked a simple question, “Why? Why must we ally with these terrorists?”

Then she answered her own question, “Because, they are humans too and Equestria is threatening us as discovered by the alliance of PER and the crown.”

To give hope about the HLF she concluded this statement, “Some of the HLF however agreed to disband the use of terrorism and to just conduct intermediate raids while the Radical Axis HLF remains.”

The UN-IHSA assembly members beamed with hope.

“We need to stand UNITED!" she shouted before continuing. "I am going to make it clear that not all of Equestrians are evil, just the ones that are trying to exterminate us."

They stood up clapping until she spoke again making a final statement.

"We shall defend this world, whatever the costs may be; we shall fight in our nations; we shall fight in our seas; we shall fight in our air; we shall fight in our streets and in our homes; we shall fight for our children; humanity will be united; humanity will never surrender."

The entire assembly stood up clapping and she stepped down to let Lyra step up.

“Humanity, I stand with you as I must say that Equestria is doing the wrong things and I stand up for you humans, but I do not want a war...”

AT THE BRINK!
