The nazis have won. The war ended 40 years ago. Life is fine for the most part, just a bit harsher. To harsh. To militarized. WE MUST RISE!!!
This is a story from a shared account, named humanstanksandponies. The story didn't come out quite right. It may seem cheezy, and it's in a "this story sucks cuz I say so" group. And I never gave them permission to do that.

When Private Fleethoof recognized his dream and joined the Royal Guard, he never thought he would ever experience the might of Equestria's military firsthand. But when Equestria's safety is threatened by an old enemy, he'll find out just what sacrifices war and survival demand, what it truly means to serve for Princess and country, and just how important some friendships can be. See the war through the eye-witness account of a soldier on the front lines, all taken from one enduring journal.

A Reading of the Prologue by TheFirstPersonGamers

After putting on the Element of Magic, Sunset Shimmer was shown just how much of a monster she really is. But that wasn't all the Elements did to her.

Sunset has now been forced to serve penance by answering any question truthfully and by doing anything asked of her, whether she wants to or not.

And she really doesn't want to.

Until all of the hatred in her heart is gone, Sunset is at the whim of her peers, unbeknownst to them of course. Can her new "friends" help her down the road to redemption?

If not, there's always that other Twilight Sparkle she keeps running into.
