Called to Canterlot in the dead of night, Twilight finds that she has been tasked with the construction of a large-scale magical weapon. After being whisked away to Manehattan, Twilight reluctantly works with her fellow scientists Shock Core and Control Freak, despite her misgivings about the morality of the whole enterprise. And then there's totally a conspiracy theory. And Rainbow Dash is totally gonna drop the bomb.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Mane 6 go through their own unique experiences in the Fourth Great Equestrian War: Applejack and Rainbow Dash in combat, Fluttershy and Rarity behind the scenes, and Pinkie Pie behind enemy lines, using her reality warping powers to be awesome. Don't worry, there won't be gore. There may or may not be wounds or a broken bone, but it won't go far enough to be "gore". At the very least, any bad stuff won't be described.
This fic has no real genre, honestly. It's going to have dark elements and comedic parts. Just take it at face value, I'm not trying to depress you (well, yet) and I'm not trying to make you fall out of your seat laughing. It's just going to be a fic that I hope will entertain you. Hence a "Slice of Life" tag. That's pretty neutral, and that's just what this is. A situation, and the characters live it out. That's a "Slice of Life", right? Maybe I'm totally wrong.
I do want to clarify that I know SQUAT, and I mean NADA, ZIP, ZERO about the actual science of atomic weaponry. I bet I butchered the terminology just by typing that sentence. Don't judge me, I'm just gonna stay vague about how the bomb works.

This IS my first fic, so please demolish it. It can only make it better.
Expect periodic updates about twice a week. It'll probably end up being once a week, but hey, I'm going to be positive here and nopony can stop me.
All credit for the cover image goes to Reina-Kitsune, you have my gratitude. Please don't sue me.
All the proper dues and respects to Hasbro and Lauren Faust. Hmmm. I felt like I should put this disclaimer but I don't really know if I need to. Well, better safe than sorry. Please don't sue me.
For those of you who read this far into the description: You rock! You've earned the Rainbow Dash seal of approval and two internets! Sorry for such a long description. 
Just because of your name, you earned this.
Okay.
I forget how I learned about you, I'm sorry to say. But I know that you are a cool dude.
And I love the Manhattan Project. (Actually, it's on my read-later list . . . but still.)
I am the Approver, and I approve this message.
UPDATE THE MANEHATTEN PROJECT! ME NEED TO HAVE SOME MOAR!
>>38548 I've been on Facebook more than before recently. I can't help but wish there was a like button here.
So yes, "like"
You got tagged, motherbucker!
>>26422 Oh, I didn't realize I had those skills. They must be on a subconscious level of awesomeness I wasn't aware of.
PM me about it so that our evil plans aren't found out by others who can view this page.
Have an overly large image while I'm at it.
I need some advice.
It has to do with your trolling/stalking skills.
>>24108 I has no idea.
>>15602 That's so beautiful. How did I not notice that that got posted on my page until now?
Thanks for the Fav! They're always greatly appreciated and really help keep me motivated to keep writing the best stuff that I possibly can.
