As the barrier advances across the earth those humans and ponies left in its path plan for the end and come to terms with their inevitable fate and the road that set them upon it. Whether the sacrifices and losses were worth it and when all else fails, falling back upon the last bastion of humanity and the magic of friendship


A/N: This is an attempt to use the setting of the Conversion Bureau to try and tell an interesting, compelling and, hopefully, good story focused on the good and bad of both humans and ponies. One aren't just saints and the other aren't just sinners, this is a tale with plenty of shades of grey

Well, we all know that Celestia is very Evil, and UGLY in that picture.

This this remind me of the story of Spyro and the Wings of Fire come to our world and we have learned that there really the bad guys in the stores in the games were just lies that they spread to our universe for we can walk them in since they're supposed to be heroes.

A new person speaking should be a new paragraph

Okay WTF! It sounds like "this" Spyro and the Dragons are just "evil versions". LUCKILY, we have the Multiverse to fix that. Surly the REAL HEROIC Spyro, Cynder, and the Wings Of Fire in the Main Timelines. Found this out, they would surely help Humanity and really KICK THEIR EVIL ASSES AND MAKE THEM REGRET ON CHOOSING THE EVIL SIDE IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!! :pinkiecrazy:


It's just like seeing the Canon Justice League versus The Justice Lords ( From the Justice League's TV Shows.) Or Injustice Superman's Regime.

Or having Transformers Canon and Heroic Autobots facing their Evil Counterparts in the Shattered Glass Universe.

Well like the story so far, let’s see what next

Question before I start reading. Celestia is evil in this I’m guessing?

Not really evil, she had a choice to make and she questions whether it was the right one

Read through it.
I honestly have to say maybe I'm tired of tragedies (and overthrowing tyrant Celestia). Congrats on writing a complete work.

“Yes, from what I’ve been able to study with help from the newfoals humans are every bit as bad as we feared” Twilight began re-showing images and evidence from her report to get her point across

what!?

“Their most powerful nations starved those they ruled for greed and profit, in this case the British Empire starved Ireland, hundreds of thousands died and hundreds of thousands more had to leave to survive. Even today the population of the country isn’t up to what it should have been, many just didn’t care” she’d known from her history books that ponies had gone through hardships in the past but they'd never been wilfully starved, Celestia would never have allowed it

ok, but we can explain!

The next one was a black and white photograph, a young girl was holding up her arms, not her hands but her arms, which ended in uneven stumps

“They hate those who aren't like them, they use that to justify doing horrible things. Belgium's king took over the area they call the Congo and bled it dry. If your village didn't deliver its quota of rubber he sent his soldiers to punish you. The soldiers weren't allowed to waste bullets so for everyone, they had to bring back a hand to show they'd killed someone. Villages who delivered hands had their quotas cut so they'd go to war to get enough, it led to men, women, children having theirs cut off and they weren't always dead when they did. They turned severed hands into currency princess” Celestia felt her stomach turn

but....

The next was a church made of red brick in a tropical region, bones and bodies putrefying and dried into mummies by the hot sun were scattered outside, one spread out in a perverse mockery of their god Christ on his cross. The red soil of Africa was stained a dark brown by the gallons of blood that had been spilled there

“They kill each other based on ethnic hatred, in this place, Rwanda, they murdered up to a million humans in four months, even women and children, they chopped them up like apples for crab-apple salad” having said that, Twilight knew she’d never be able to fully enjoy dinner with the Apple family again

We.....

The next few were a series of grainy black and white photographs, one showed a massive pair of industrial chimneys similar to ones that had begun popping up in Fillydelphia, Stalliongrad and Detrot, both were belching smoke, others were of mounds of shoes, glasses and hair, the final one was of a gate with the words ‘Arbeit macht frei’ on it

“They commit genocide on industrial scale. The Nazi party killed over six million people in an event the humans call the Holocaust, those piles all belonged to people they gassed at this camp the humans call Auschwitz, six million Princess”

I-we......

The final image was of a cloud, one shaped like the mushrooms Celestia enjoyed grilled and served with a nice side salad, it was jet black and though she couldn’t be sure how, she could feel immense power behind it

“And they possess weapons that could wipe Canterlot off the face of Equestria,if they saw us as a big enough threat...Princess ,I don’t know how to say this but they’re bad, bad to the bone, what are we going to do?”

...............plz give us a chance

“I...I agree Princess, this is the right thing to do” she looked at the ground

No plz give us a chance!!! There is good in us!

“How dare you...”

UH OH

“As one Empire was starving them another was trying to save them, the Ottoman Empire's Sultan Abdülmecid sent a fortune to help them when his own empire was in decline. The British wanted him to send less, so he did” she could see Celestia preparing to speak so continued “but he sent ships full of food as well that helped to feed those starving”

“No it's not” she called up other photos, showing ships bearing the stars and stripes, of men and women with darker skins and flowers in their hair and many more “people and governments from around the world sent money or supplies to help, the Cherokee, the Pope, one empire didn't care, lots more nations and plenty of people did”

See!! There's good in us!

“And the atomic bomb? The thing they made that could destroy their world and ours?”

“It should have done, during the Cuban Missile Crisis Vasily Arkhipov made sure it didn't, he was willing to sacrifice himself and his submarine to make sure it didn't”

Oh yeah! The American government tried everything they could to stop it. Even sending warnings to the innocent target.

“For everything bad one of them does there are lots more who are do good, who are good, who help, who step up when they're needed” she held up the folder and floated it over to the Princess “there's more examples in here, a lot more, so many more, because of all that...Princess... we've made a horrible mistake, we have to try and stop the barrier, slow it back down. Give them time, give them a chance”

This is what TCB Celestia failed to see!

She only focused on the bad things and ignored all the good things we humans did!
There is good in us, we just need to be given a chance!

“Equestria Twilight, that's why, I'm responsible for my little ponies and Equestira” she lifted the file “not for these humans or their planet, unless they choose to become my little ponies and make a new life here”

What?

You are willing to let us die because we aren't like your people!!!?
I thought there was good in you Celestia!!!

“I know the good they can do and I know all the bad they've done, in the long run, sooner or later they'll turn on us, or enough of them will to make it matter. I wish it didn't have to be this way Twilight, really I do but I can't risk it” she raised her head looking down at her Most Faithful Student “that's what being a Princess is about, sometimes you have to make a choice with countless lives in the balance and hope you're right” she looked at the folder “and find a way to live with yourself”

But we can do it!! We all can coexist together, just give us a chance!!!

“...that she's free” her vision grew darker and darker, the last sight she ever saw was the whale breaching, revelling in her newfound freedom, the freedom Fluttershy had helped give her. It was the last feeling the Element of Kindness ever knew, she thought it was a good one

DID SHE JUST DIE!?
