Sometimes, the day you earn your cutiemark isn't a happy one!

No one expects to go to sleep and never wake up. There's always tomorrow, or the next day. There was always time. So, when a young life is extinguished before its time, it becomes especially difficult to handle. When the spirit of that life is forced to face and accept her death, what will become of her afterlife? Scootaloo will soon be faced with this tragedy, and this is her story.

1000 years ago, Nightmare Moon got banished, but just outside of Equestria. She builds an Empire called the New Lunar "Republic". Over the years, they build a mighty Dictatorship. Meanwhile, her and her second in command in the New Lunar Republic, Octavius, fall in love.

This is the epic of the battles and strife of love through war. And what comes after the 1000 year banishment?

As the years progress, their love grows. But when the elements of harmony do something unexpected, her feelings for Octavius suddenly stop.

Love never prevails.

He was an outcast of a previous society. His family, friends, and everything he knew was...gone. And everypony blamed him for it. He was kicked out, and abandoned. Before he left, he left one last surprise as a thing of revenge. Before he knew it, they were all dead.

He then arrived in Equestria, more specifically, Ponyville. He wanted to make a new life. It seemed everypony cared, but one stood out to him. This one, beautiful, mare. Her name of course, was Twilight Sparkle.

Meanwhile, the Templar are moving toward Equestria, and a big war is about to happen. Tranquilius must reveal his identity before it is too late, but will Twilight accept him for who he actually is, a professional killer?
