It has been several months since the disappearance of Twilight Sparkle..

One night, after watching her sister raise the Moon and set the heavens alight, Princess Celestia begins to bed down for the night, only to be interrupted by portal forming in her room. From out of the portal comes none other than Twilight Sparkle, garbed in strange armor.

Princess Celestia, along with Luna, Cadence, and Shining Armor, are overjoyed by the Element of Magic's return, but are justifiably curious as to where she had been and what she had been doing. And so, Twilight begins her tale. A tale of survival against impossible odds. A tale of a people fighting for the most basic right of all sentient beings. The right to exist.

1000 years ago Nightmare Moon was banished to the moon for her envy, or so the story goes.

History is written by the victor, and in her current state Princess Luna doesn't remember the atrocities her sister committed in the name of Order and Perfection. But now, four ancient warriors who remember rise, and they have one mission, rewrite that history.

Commander Icarus Nightwing leads a team of the finest soldiers from the Old Republic to fight against the Tyrant Celestia, but it will not be easy. During the millennia they spent slumbering the Goddess has been consolidating her power. They need to be careful, infiltrate and hit when she is vulnerable.

The key is the Elements of Harmony, but how can Icarus convince the Loyal Rainbow Dash that her loyalty is blind, the Honest Apple Jack that her monarch has lied to her, or Celestia's faithful student Twilight Sparkle that her faith is misplaced?

The night is darkest just before the dawn, and its time for the eternal night to end, its time for freedom, its time for the New Luna Republic

The production models served as 'companion' units. They provided tender love and caring to people that can't seem to get that from other people. The first version of the first model had a catchy nickname, 'Dash' or 'Dashie', that ended up getting adopted by the whole staff. Of course, the company planned Dash as merely the first of a whole set of bio-mechanical creatures, the later versions looking more humanoid.

In many ways, she worked beyond the company's wildest expectations. Everyone seemed to love her rainbow mane, her fluffy wings, her muscular hooves, and her infectious smile. They programmed her to love them back, of course. Still, the company had one fundamental problem. Dashe kept acting like she was real.

I wrote this for several reasons. First, I was recently banned by Poultron. So, I wrote a fanfic letting out the negative energy. Second, it's a sort of 'spiritual side-quel' to my story Love Can't Be Programmed. Third, I've been obsessed with Blade Runner lately. Fourth, I've always wanted to do my response to My Little Dashie. Thanks to Lucefudu for editing help. And thanks to everyone for reading.
