This is what happens when a song gets me this inspired... · 10:18am Oct 13th, 2016

Warning: I will not be at fault for any excessive goosebumps when you read this.



Note: The alternative universe featured here are Three Wishes, Bad Future Crusaders, Fallout: Equestria, and Rites of Ascension. The characters involved in question belong to the artist Equestria-Prevails, go check out her arts!

0:00 Here, Celestia and Luna stand atop a cliff that overlooks a barren and lifeless field that will soon hold a battle against one enemy and his army.

Each note the song makes at the beginning starting on 0:01 and each 2 second interval showcases these characters in order transparent on the background and appearing besides the two princesses: Princess Rosetta and General Firefly, Princess Iridia, King Rhosus and his family, Darius, Cassandra, and Alex, the mane six, Shining Armor and Princess Cadance, and Scorpan and Amok Gale-sower.

The seventh gong on 0:15 focused on Celestia and Luna as they looked towards their comrades-in-arms and then behind them as an army of epic proportions gathered, all led by Princess Galaxia. From the spellcasters from the Black Islands, to the soldiers and marksponies of Concordia, to the hardy griffons, to the dragons, to the ponies from Equestria, everyone gathered for this final battle. Both turn their attention ahead past the battlefield, towards the dark mountains and front of a dark cave where their toughest challenge awaited.

On 0:33 where the first drum sound, red eyes begin to glow menacingly from the dark cave itself. Each set of drum intervals will represent what is happening currently. The first drum interval, their enemy makes three steps forward and reveals himself as Grogar the Necromancer. The second drum interval has him smiling with confidence and morbid glee as a city begins to emerge from the mountains and form behind him. The third has his horns glow a blood red aura as he called upon his undead army. Black and decaying hooves emerge from the ground as the zombies pull themselves out of the ground and emit a piercing screech. The fourth drum interval has him gesturing his undead army to attack the army to which they oblige and immediately charge.

The fifth one has Celestia and Luna rallying their comrades as they deliver a speech. How you think their speech went is up to you but for me, this is what I imagine them saying. Word for word as this speech was spoken by their parents and now they are saying towards the people who gathered here…

"We seek heroes to guide us. But we do not need heroes to fight a foe. What we need is the strength to fight, to achieve a victory long since gained. We call mighty warriors or wise generals heroes. We put the pony who struck the killing blow amongst gods. What we do not see is the thousands who died for the same cause as these heroes, who stood up to be soldiers in an army, not brave knights from fairy tales. They may not be recognized by the public, but in their halls, and even by the mightiest warrior, they deserve more than kings. There are many cowards in any army than you realize, but those who do not cower, those who do not fight for personal gain... Should be regarded as the greatest heroes."

Her words manage to get the army to roar their approval as they raised their weapons high up to the air and cheer for victory. Everyone that gathered around her will be touched before they turn their attention towards the charging army.

At the sixth drum interval, Celestia raised her halberd to the air and points it towards the undead army as she yells this line, “For the fate of the world and for our future, charge!” Everyone immediately charges with the royal members in front. As that was happening, Galaxia orders any spellcasters and marksponies that were on the airships to fire everything they got. Sounds of rifles firing, spells being prepared and fired, thrown rocks that ended up exploding were made.

At the seventh interval, Celestia readies her weapon and throws it in a spinning motion towards the army. Just around the final drum interval, the halberd glows with her aura and suddenly, as the interval ends on 1:06, it becomes a tornado of fire. From here onward to 1:30, the army collides with the undead. Again, how you imagine it is up to you but if you were to ask me still, this is how I would interpret what is happening.

In order starting from Firefly and Rosetta: Firefly would descend upon the battlefield with her flame-cloaked claws unsheathed and slash away at the zombies while Rosetta would support her and her soldiers by firing beams of concentrated fire and casting spells that empower them.

To the Griffon family, Darius would hack away with his axe while firing a crossbow from afar saving Cassandra from a zombie as a result. Cassandra would silently thank him as she ascends and rains down arrows upon her adversaries. Alex would be by his father’s side as he picks off any zombies that attacked him from behind. Rhosus was just about to cut a zombie in half with his twin swords only for it to get mauled by a frost wolf.

He then turns towards Iridia in question who was summoning the wolves in question and letting them attack while she herself casted wind and ice related spells towards the zombies.

Cadance would protect and heal any injured warriors out on the battlefield while keeping up the fight alongside Shining Armor who was doing the same in question. A zombie would appear above them and attack them only to get blasted away by Luna.

Luna would then unsheathe her sword and charge towards the undead, slashing and casting magics all at once, no holding back. Scorpan and Amok would be by her side slashing away and casting lightning-based magics as well.

The mane six in question would do what they do best. Fluttershy was charging with her animals friends besides her as they unleash their fury. Applejack would pound away at some zombies while firing her guns towards any that were far from her. Rainbow would ascend to the air and with a smirk, perform a Sonic Rainnuke, Pinkie would what she does best, Rarity would still be graceful with her rapier in question but still fight dirty and Twilight would cast a plethora of offensive spells almost endlessly.

Around the 1:30 mark, a horn would be heard. All the royal members would looks towards the source of the sound to see my OC (who was busy gathering allies and had just arrived in time) Zodiac. He would put the horn aside and unsheathed his sword and raise it to the air. On 1:37, rifts and tears from the space-time continuum begun to form and suddenly, a surge of allies emerge from the rifts themselves.

Here, the many characters from the alternate timelines/universes surge and descend with Zodiac joining them in their descent. All manner of creatures from these alternate universes emerge to join in this final battle. The whole army notices the incoming reinforcements and cheered loudly as they continued to press the attack upon Grogar’s minions to his domain. Zodiac was the first to land and had joined in the charge with the army as they charged towards the next onslaught of zombies. He looks towards Grogar and they stare at each other for what seemed like an eternity to them before Zodiac turned his attention towards the zombies and charge with the leading members. Grogar could only smile menacingly as his horns glow and more undead emerge. He gestures them to do the same like the others as they charge towards the army in reckless abandon. Zodiac ended up ahead of the whole army as he sped past them focusing only on Grogar himself. At around 2:09, he delivers a slash that in video format would cover the whole screen. This results to a scene change with the descending reinforcements that last until 3:13. You already know what I’m going to say anyway but I’ll share what I imagine.

From here, we have Three Wishes Apple Bloom landing first and stomping the floor hard. Once she does that, she raises her two forelegs to the air and creates the biggest tree she could muster. That tree would attack any zombies that approached it with its roots while allowing the others descending to land and run down it in question. From there, we have Calamity using the sky chariot and blasting any heads off with Spitfire’s Thunder while carrying Littlepip and co. Littlepip and Xenith would jump off the chariot with Xenith landing atop a zombie killing it in the process and Littlepip carrying herself with her telekinesis and firing Little Macintosh. A zombie would appear behind Xenith and try to chomp on her only to be killed by a thrown knife. She would turn around and see a smirk from BFC Silver Spoon that’s riding on the back of F:oE Spike. Other allies would jump down from the dragon as he starts to breathe fire upon the undead.

One of the allies that jumped off the dragon, Three Wishes Sweetie Belle, would slash at a zombie with her mechanical wolf claw and send a pack of wolves upon them. Then Puppysmiles would pull out her rock and bonk on a zombie’s head killing that one off. One zombie would take a bite out of her only to get killed by the Pink Cloud that resides in her. BFC Silver Spoon would grab the knife she tossed and charged towards the enemy besides Xenith. Brimstone from MN7 would crash land on purpose and create a small crater sending zombies flying and bulldozing past any zombies in his path. Those that stayed upon F:oE Spike would fire upon any zombies that were within their line of sight.
They are Silver from Heroes, BFC Sweetie Belle, Murky and Glimmerlight from MN7, RoA Trixie, and Scotch and Boo from Project Horizons.

A jeep would jump off the huge tree with BFC Scootaloo driving it with BFC Apple Bloom, Blackjack, Rampage and RoA Spike. While the jeep would squish any zombies underneath, BFC Apple Bloom would fire at any within her range with her repeater. The other three would jump off the jeep as it performs another jump off the small rock and land atop any zombies. Blackjack would fire her guns and slash away at any zombies, Rampage would punch, kick, and repeat the process on any zombie while RoA Spike would unsheathe his halberd and charge with it sticking out front. RoA Twilight alongside RoA Rainbow Dash would descend and join with the three in question.

After all of that, once it reaches 3:13, the camera would focus on Zodiac himself just as he slashed at a zombie. He would look around and
see the sights of soldiers continuing the fight and charging ahead of him. He then would look towards Grogar who was still smiling maliciously. Seeing that and the undead army ahead, Zodiac would ascend to the air, close his eyes and begin to ready a spell in question. Grogar would only watch in curiosity as he sees his horn glow a pure white. Unbeknownst to him, a sphere of energy was forming quickly above the dark clouds. Once the spell was complete, Zodiac would open his eyes, raise her forelegs to the air and lower it down. That gesture causes the sphere of energy to descend upon the battlefield. It pierces through and at first nothing happens but around 3:45, an explosion of epic proportions shakes and covers the whole battlefield damaging only the undead and leaving his allies unharmed.

During the explosion, Zodiac would immediately charge towards Grogar with his sword ready. Just as he attacked him, Grogar would call upon a scythe and block the sword in question. With a smirk, he pushes Zodiac away and fires dark a barrage of dark energy. Zodiac would dodge each one of them and charge at Grogar once more around 3:53, this causing a fade to white transition.

The camera now focuses on the army itself as they still continue their assault. Dust was sent flying from the rocks that were catapulted. Gunfire and spells were being fired continuously from the airships that were moving. Allies from the multiple alternate universes continue to come and assist in the fight in any way possible. Around 4:09, Zodiac recovers from an attack and lands in front of the biggest army known to the world and looks at Grogar for one last time before shifting his attention to the army that gathered behind him. Everyone he saw behind him; their expressions all shared one thing: determination to take down the enemy. He smiles and looks towards the undead army once more.

At 4:18, Zodiac raises his sword to the air one more time and yells this line, “For the fate of this time and all others, let us end this once and for all!” He then points his sword towards the undead and utters one line, “Charge!” Everyone yells as they charge towards the undead army. During their charge, the dark clouds that hung over them begin to disperse as a silhouette of two alicorns smile upon seeing the army ready to protect the peace they obtained for so long. Then a beautiful white light begins to shine upon the living. The light and darkness of the sky would collide with one another as the army would ends up being the center of focus. As the gap between them and the undead that stood in their way closes, the focus would shift to the leading members and all alternate universe heroes for one last time before the screen fades to white on 4:50

Here, two quotes will slowly appear before they fade away.

"Victory at all costs, Victory in spite of all the terror, Victory however long and hard the road may be.
For without Victory, there is no survival."
