Nearly all of humanity has been converted and all that remains is a small, but well armed resistance. They are mounting an assault on Equestria to, one way or another, send Celestia a message.

"We will not go quietly into the night!
We will not vanish without a fight!"
President Thomas J. Whitmore, Independence Day

Basically a sequel to a TCB/Shadow over Insmouth story idea I never managed to write up.

Celestia waits alone in Canterlot for the restored Human race to come after her seeking vengeance. Things don't go as she expected.

Equestria has appeared on Earth. But instead of joy and knowledge; it has bought death, pain and destruction. Who is responsible for this? The Solar Tyrant Celestia.

She has professed kindness, tolerance and compassion. But backed up by the point of a sword, kindness becomes cruelty; tolerance becomes intolerance; and compassion becomes hate.

But there is hope. the Selenian Rebellion. Composed of beings from Equestria and Earth and led by Princess Luna, they are all united by a single cause - stopping the Solar Tyrant and restoring peace to the joined worlds.

Can this group succeed or will Earth and Humanity be trampled under the iron-shod hooves of Celestia's military?

Author's Notes: I would like to thank Restless Coyote from Space Battles for suggesting the the title to this story.

A long time ago, humans walked the earth. They're all gone now, either dead or turned to ponies by the many "Conversion Bureaus." Now it's the ponies that govern the world, led by their goddesses, Princess Luna and Princess Celestia. Very few remember or give much thought to the days of humanity.

But sometimes things don't die very easily. Sometimes things linger, even if it's just a memory or a legend. Sometimes when an egregious injustice has been left unchecked, even a pony can get very angry.

On the crew of the White Rose there are many such angry ponies, led by Firebrand. These are young students who have perceived an injustice and are determined to blow everything open with one blazing truth.

Based on "The Conversion Bureau."

Equestria is expanding unstoppably. The Conversion Bureaus are working at peak capacity. It looks absolutely certain that Celestia will replace humanity with ponies.

But then one niggling flaw appears in her plan. You see, humanity's religions, while dismissed by Celestia as just more evidence of human barbarism, are correct in at least one respect. Humanity has a loving father, and what Celestia is doing makes Him angry. So angry in fact, He's going to do what He hasn't done since ancient times: smite.

Seems like Exodus is being reenacted, and guess who's playing Pharoah?

The Human Liberation Front. An organization of terrorists, xenophobes, and bigots. An organization dedicated to the destruction of ponykind. An organization against the peaceful coexistence of two species. If the peace and love of Equestria is to help a shattered humanity, this evil group must be eliminated.
But to Jack Beckett and others, that couldn't be farther from the truth.

For OPT-related material not in the main story itself, read Side Stories.

Cancelled

This is a story about the last human after the conversion of the human race into ponies. The last human is alone but is going to continue to live and shine, even if everything seems to be at its end.

The crowd was holding their breath as they watched Twilight examine the artifact, “hm”-ing and “mhm”-ing as she saw fit.
-“The details are incredible... The pictograms look proto-Hukulskian... Whatever it is, it is really old...”
-“Like, somepony hid it for Rabbit Slayer’s a couple of years ago and no one ever found it?”
-“No, AJ, I think even quite a bit older than that.”

I'm sure you've heard all about it by now. Rainbows and sunshine. Unhappy humans turning into happy ponies. Dancing and singing together in harmony, now and forever.

All of those stories you've heard, exaggerated. All those statistics and graphs, faked. Propaganda. Delusions.

They didn't tell the real story, what it was actually like. So, I've decided to write this book to record some of the truths that have been... glossed over.

My name is Matthew Roberts, and I'm the Mayor of New Hope. While my covering may have changed, I am still human.
This is the untold story of the Conversion. The one they never wanted to acknowledge.

Robert Parker is a 24 year old ex-web developer living in New York city. In the wake of the conversion movement, he has seemingly lost everything. Haunted by the same nightmare every night, he soon realizes that he must make a choice.

To those unfamiliar with the Conversion Bureau: it is a scenario created by an author named blaze in which Ponies either appear in the human world or have lived beside humans without incident for millennia. One day, in the face of all the damage humanity has done to its world, the ponies offer a solution: undergo conversion to become a pony and allow the world to be inundated with Equestria's influence: thus healing it and bring forth a golden age.

Many different authors have taken many different approaches to this idea, all of them are worth checking out.
