This story is a sequel to The Calm before the Storms

It's June 9th, the day known as Shield's birthday. And the commissioner celebrates his birthday in the way he always celebrates: With video games and endless streams of mead and beer. But all birthdays are vulnerable to being crashed, even one in a town known for its peace.

The trouble will come in the form of an orc warband led by Cap'n Killteef, an ogre warlord of dubious reputation. He and his band of merry murderers plan on wiping out Ponyville in an attempt to add glory to his name. His motives are meaningless to Shield and company, they've got mead in their bellies and their rage in their blood. They will be more than happy to fight off the horde.

But the fight will not be just against Shield and buddies, since Killteef wants to turn Ponyville into his new base of operations. And he will do so through the use of one of the Ogre's most complex tactics: throwing his inferior orc cousins at the enemy until they stops moving.

Will the commissioners be able to hold back the green tide? Or will the horde inevitably overwhelm Ponyville through sheer numbers?

Flash Sentry has just moved to Canterlot High, his parents having gone overseas for an archaeological expedition, and is about to live a year in an unknown school where hopefully he can just live by. And for that he has the company of the dorm's manager and the head school nurse: Cadence.

But his life won't be as easy, not while there are six girls with plans of their own and in need of someone to help them make their objectives a reality, whether he likes it or not....

Then there's Discord, the mysterious man from his dreams, and Wondercolt, an unknown character from Harmonyspace. Their constant appearances will be a distraction from daily life and maybe even add a touch of danger to an otherwise normal life.

Twilight's been having a rough week. First she learns that Cadence is leaving and next that Spike has gone missing, leaving him stranded in a dragon's lair with little chance of coming back soon. In an effort to speed things up she accepts training from Shield, who promises to take her on the mission if and only if he's convinced that she will survive. But there's also the fact of having to deal with Shield's other team members, who are arriving at Ponyville in order to celebrate this Commissioner's birthday.

Fortunately for her, Rarity is more than ready to to lend a helping hand. And she'll need it if she wants to convince everyone that her mission to save Spike is important.

Octavia has been working for eight years in a calm club in the upper parts of Canterlot, enduring the ever irritating harassment of the nobles. One day she is assaulted by one of the higher nobles, but is rescued by her former collegue Master Exploder. Together they decide to flee the White City in the hopes of making a name for herself in the Big Apple

Vinyl Scratch has been the DJ of a popular nightclub in Canterlot, but when she finds out that she's going to be replaced by a trendier and far cheaper guy with absolutely no experience, she decides to pull one last trick up her sleeve to write her name in the Hall of DJs before storming off. Frustrated at the loss of her job she is then forced to flee a noble offensive, being rescued by a masked vigilante. In panic she grabs the first train out of the city and headed for Manehattan, where the top DJs live.

They soon meet on the morning train to The Big Apple, each hoping to start their new lives. But the lives they dreamed of are far from what they can get. There are people everywhere who are offering them jobs, some are legit others... far less safe.

Shield Heart, Commissioner of Ponyville, now finds himself in a battle against his worst foe: Boredom.

Twilight, Cadence and the rest of the gals will need to work together if they are to restore this broken man back to what he once was, and certain circumstances will make it near impossible to control the blond soldier!

They will also need to learn of his past through his odd acquaintances he's made and have taken residence in the lovely town. Maybe then they can see just how fractured his mind really is.
