//------------------------------// // Season three: Chapter: Twenty six: Life, love, and war // Story: Project Harmony One. // by Megaskullmon //------------------------------// There are words that most have said over the years. "War war never changes." That is the most stupid saying in all of the world. War can change because it can change how you do war. The fact is that ponies have never even had war until the Alliance formed. The first war started with the Alliance keeping the door closed. They have lost that war and while they have the ponies and creatures that survived and didn't follow what the others were doing. Made it off the planet. leaving the empty world behind full of the threats of the past. Of course, Grogar did try to shoot some of the transports down with his magic. It wasn't easy but he did graze one of them causing it to almost crash but they got control back and started to head to find the new world. The one leading them Star swirl. Back on the new world though they were getting ready for battle. It didn't take them to long but starports were built from all races. Of course, the zebras didn't wish to build ships again but they knew that they had to. All of the ports connected. The Zebra ones ran on brews and curses. It was odd that most of the station just floated there with spells that zebras kept casting in the station. The diamond dogs had another station connected to that one they used gems to keep it going and the world they were on had many so They used mud dirt and even somehow they kept it going with all that. The changelings it was like their hives always changing and the ships the same. Griffins had their own next it was pretty normal like they always had it looked like a bird of prey and their ships the same. The ponies had all one ship connected. The crystal ponies even had a hoof in it. They made the white stars along with their ships. the white stars were given to them by the bat pony race It was of their tech along with ponies but the main thing they have never thought of was the fact that there are the allied races that added to it as well. But one thing that has been happening in the space of this world ships having been calling for what is known as the first one. The bat Loren has said there is no need to hunt for them. This is the world that all the first ones came from. While they wait One of the flashes finally happens. Rainbow was in labor she remembers this it was so long ago. That would mean the other flash she saw is going to happen as well. Muffin was by her side. "Push Rainbow push.." Rainbow did what she said her husband so close to her. As she knew that this was going to happen. But the fact this is happening she felt it was to soon. But when a baby wishes to come a baby comes. Another one watching this is Twilight Sparkle. She is watching the Dash family rebuild and she knew it wasn't going to be easy since most of her time was hunting down what remained or enslaving the ones left. Jigsaw held his loves hoof. Another flash that she remembers seeing finally goes over her eyes again. The sniper in the middle of a battle field a large battle and then.. At the end of the flash. The pain was causing her to oddly connect with Charity for a time and she got to see all what she was seeing. She saw herself meeting those that have left long ago when she died. Her time will sadly be twenty years from now and she is ready for it. But first, she has a battle to win and then they will grow old and then.. Life. The little one finally came it was a stallion. A stallion but she didn't realize in the darkness Sabastion the one that beat her and Charity up to get the truth of the universe. Loren watched it with his friend. "That child will be the end of her and the Alliance I think she knows this to. That when she is gone something bad will happen to him. Maybe we can stop that from happening like it happen to the Sheredan and Deleen we must stop the Shadows from giving him their little minion." The lizard nodded to his friend. He looked to Twilight who took the little one in her magic. "I got a name for him Dash. After the namesake makes sure he builds your family back up to fix my mistakes." rainbow nodded weakly with a smile her foal given back to her holding him in her hooves nuzzling him. " Like that name." Jigsaw softly added. "Dash a strong name for my son to be and to fix the Dash line." Loren walked out of the shadows they all looked at the bat and he lifted the foal looking right at him like he is looking at the soul. "He has a strong soul in his heart. He will take up the mantel of helping get Equestria back on their hooves. The station the cause of all this will finally be gone and the universe will be full of hope and endless peace for a time." He turned to Twilight and smiled to her. The smile made her worry. He was staring right at her. Luna was meant to stay on this world and use the station and the castle as her place. She is the one to lead the battle to regain their world. She knew it was going to be easy. But maybe she could go with them to free the words from Disharmony and gain her troops back. Tell them what is going on and then maybe someday they will know what is going to happen. 0000 Luna and Twilight Twilight didn't know what to do she sat in the office of Muffin. They wern't even allowed back to the station till the war was started. Luna wanted to talk to her. Starlight was in the room watching her former mentor pace. Starlight shook her head she found it funny after all these years that Twilight hasen't even changed she still gets crazy so easy. Maybe that someday she will calm down. "Twilight you need to relax I have known you for years. You never calm yourself down and you're always like this so relax." Twilight sighed looking out the window seeing the new town that looks just like ponyville. Watching all the foals families and different species of ponies and Equestrians. She watched as Cold Tooth was helping his new mate Butter Berry. Butter Berry married an alien species that helps her with her store. Whats intresting though she has a swelled stomach showing she is the first one to give birth to an alien species. "So much has changed Starlight. We have Equestrians marrying ailens and we have a new planet. Our home world is now under the control of Disharmony. I haven't been able to get any updates from my army. I just know they have been following my orders and suppressing everything. The fact that Disharmony did so much to me and I don't get much of a punishment. I killed so many I have a feeling Luna is going to tell me it is my job to get our world back." "You're right Twilight." Twilight turned bowing to the new Queen of the ponies of this world. Starlight didn't even bow she just rolled her flesh eye. Luna chuckled and walking to the other Queen placing her hoof on her shoulder. "My task for you is to regain all your army Twilight and then get back our world." Twilight stared at Luna. She had no idea how to go about it. "How can I go about it, Luna? You know the ponies remaining on our world won't trust me." "I know that very well. But if Starlight could get in contact with the resistances that connect all worlds. But first I would say allow the war between harmony and Disharmony end first. They will be going to all worlds to remove each it might be best for your minion Starlight to tell your armies to stand down." Starlight nodded. "But how can we? Is there transmitter good enough on this planet?" Luna smiles looking out into the sky they could see the station. "Go up to the station soon it will be fully ready to be the center of our war on Disharmony. Go up there and make sure to express that the war is real. Unlike what Twilight tried to tell everypony the war is very real. It's not going to be easy but I got a ship ready for you to get you up there. Just before I do... I got a request for you." Starlight nods. "Name is." "I want you to go find Spike before you go up and take him from his mate. So he could go with you to the station." Starlight stared at Luna for a moment. "Spike has a mate now? When did this happen? I normally stayed very close to my brother. But of course, I haven't been out in this new world much. I just know that Spike and Ember have been leading the new dragon lands." Luna chuckled. "Oh Starlight who do you think fell for him? Ember did he and her have eggs and they will be hatching in a couple of months. Now since the equestrians of this world want to stay how it was before tech fully took over Equis you will be using transport stagecoach. Two lovely stallions one of them could be your future colt friend." Starlight sighed. "Oh great this again. You have been telling me for so long now to go find a stallion and make a family. Look at me Luna who will want to be with me? I am mostly robotic. Many don't even trust me for that reason and the fact I was part of Twilight's army for the longest time. I mean I get it you wish me to be happy. The happiness I could get with any stallion in the past because my time ended to soon. Along with Trixie." Her words stop looking towards the way out. "Oh, Starlight I mean nothing by it. But I want you to be happy and when the Disharmony war is over we will be getting the worlds back from Twilight's minions I doubt all will listen to you. I think some will fight back and maybe they still follow sunset." "Wait what about the real Sunset? What happen to her?" Twilight just kept looking outside watching the world. While the two talked. "She is gathering the resistence on all worlds. I sent her out a few days ago. She will get to the first world soon. The world that has the biggest presence of Twilights army is Griffin stone. Because Twilight felt that Rainbows Griffin family would be a great threat. So in a few cells, they have been there for along time." Starlight sighed she knew it was her who caused that. She is not happy with herself after hearing that. Its been so long now and now they don't even know why. Maybe she could find a way to get them released. Right now though she needs to go get to Spike and then head up into the station. The reason to get Spike though she dosen't understand. "Why must I go get Spike why not Twilight?" Twilight sobbed gently. Luna looked over to Twilight and sighed. "Spike said to her he may have forgiven her but he doesn't think of her as a family or his mother anymore. He said the Twilight he knew and loved is gone. So its all set up it will take you a few days to get there. Just Starlight this world will be like you remember it. We may have the creatures from Equis here but we don't send them to some door to lock them up anymore. We let them run free if they do cause issues though we tranq them and remove them from ponies and take them to a better land for them." Starlight nodded and Luna lead her outside to the stage coach that was being pulled by two large stallions. One of them smiled at her. Starlight having not feeling the heat of her face for a long time blushed on her flesh cheek. She felt something inside her beat she no longer has a heart. "If you do fall in love my dear Starlight. We will do the surgery to repair your entire body. Just you have to ask we have a new technology called cloning we can clone your entire body back along with every part of your body. You can be whole again Starlight." Starlight looked back on the day this happen to her. The Queen of the Changelings killing Trixie and then getting her revenge breaking her face her body and then seeing Twlight but noticing how she was under a trance. She looked back to Luna and her eye had tears fall from it. "I will do it, Luna...I will fall for one of these stallions and allow myself to be whole again. I want that no matter what. I am tired of having to eat gems and such just to live. I want real food., i don't want others to look at me like I am some kind of freak I want to be happy I want to love. I want... a life again. I don't want to be under the control of Twilight. I want to be just her friend again." "You never were under her control Starlight. You did all that because you felt you had to." When Luna speaks these words Starlight had fear in her eye. The fact she did all she did because she thought she was under control. It was more that she was trying to survive and trying to find a way to get Twilight to wake up. "Now get going my dear Starlight we don't have much time. Both sides are starting to move and some words need to be fought back for. Meaning words we know nothing about are calling for help." The mare nodded slowly getting help by one of the stallions into the carriage. She looked back at the new growing town as Luna stood there with a smile watching Starlight go. 00000 On the road to Friendship The trek to the new dragon lands just seemed like the trip she took with Trixie no so long ago. The road to friendship the song she sang with Trixie. She no longer wished to sing seeing it all made her remember so much of her friend. What really made her cry is the fact that she saw the school why did the school of friendship get moved here. it was more ruins of the school. It was to show the past and what is left of it. One of the other things along the way is one of the thrones that didn't get move it was Fluttershys. So much happen and what hit her harder Trixies broken down wagon it was kept together by her family. The family turned waving to Starlight they knew who she was. Starlight waved back. So much has changed and the world she is from most of those she cared for are dead. Their old world is no longer going to be even alive itself if what they heard from some remaning ponies is right. She doubts though the world will last much longer if Disharmony keeps having its way that it is now. The trek to the new dragon lands is impressive this dragon lands is connected to the main land unlike the one in Equis she went through many towns and cities new towns full of all kinds of equins and aliens working with them to rebuild. Many of the pony mares were with alien males. They finally get to the dragon lands and the stallions help her down she walks to the cave that Ember and Spike found. Spike of course had grown but he is not huge like any dragon. He still look normal he looks like he could still fit in the station and the ships he looks more like Garbel. He lifts a spear. "Who....Starlight?" His voice was so deep his body changed so much. He dropped the spear and leanded down to hug the pony. The dragon still seem weary of ponies but not all of them. "Come in.." He lead Starlight inside the cave and in the middle of the cave was the eggs with Ember laying on them. "Oh hello, Twilight." Ember smirked. "Oh ha ha I no longer look like she does Ember. But I'm happy to see that Spike found his love and his life. But I need him for something. Luna wants me to take him up tot he new station. Do you know why?" Ember nods. "They need something to power the station. The only thing is what a dragon can carry." She lifts up the dragon lord scepter breaking the gem off the scepter. "The old ways are gone Starlight. They have very weak magic powering the station and when you go up there you can then say your speech." Starlight took the Gem into her magic. "But how do I get up." Before she could finish a ship landed and Garbal came out of it he smiled. "Ah, you must be Starlight I have come to help you and Spike get up to the station. The dragons just finished their station. So I was able to barrow this." She stared at the transport. It was made out of gems that the dragons found and eaten. She wonders how it even fly's but she would ask that later. 0000 The station They land in the station and Sun Sparkle was the first to meet them along with Claw. Their children were still on the planet. They lead them through the station Starlight looked around seeing that the human influences were all gone. When they got into the very core of the station. What was powering it for the time being was a crystal. This crystal they would place in would leave till the station was done with its purpose. Inserting the crystal into the core and the entire station powers up. A voice comes over the PA system it's the voice of Sugar Sparkle. "New Celestia the station is up and running this war will be over and we can get back home Unlike me I am staying on this world. Now Starlight report to the war room." Starlight went to the war room Spike following her and when they entired a group of ponies and other creatures looked at her. "Everything is set up for you Starlight. Sugar Sparkle is transmiting to the entire universe." Starlight nodded. She stood in front of the camera and she started to speak. "To all those under the might of Twilight Sparkle step down and be ready for the war to take a new turn. We need to join up with the creatures of the planets and destroy harmony and Disharmony. Be ready for it and we shall end this war. Even if we die.." Back in Luna's office on the planet. She heard those words and sighed standing beside her was the bat, Loren. "Do you think we could win this war like they did back in the other universe?" Loren nodded. "That's the only way we can. Now the war has fully started to be ready to hear about the death toll when its over that is something more should be worried about. Luna nodded watching the station in the sky. As it gets ready to be the house for the final streaches of the war. It will be the last hope for the peace they will get.
