//------------------------------// // Season three: Chapter Twenty seven: Laws and the universe: The Zebra arc: part one // Story: Project Harmony One. // by Megaskullmon //------------------------------// Years ago many zebra tribes left Equis. They left to find freedom from their oppressors in their own lands. Most of them went missing but then got found many years later. The biggest of all these worlds is called Star Shine. It’s known as the leadership of all the zebras in the universe. All the zebras listen and follow the laws of this world. The only ones who don’t are of new Celestia. The minions of Disharmony have found a minion within Star shine. The stallion is but a simple stallion of politics and old ways.  He calls himself Glyph one that demands power and that their kind becomes warriors again. But this time to take over the entire universe. The universe to him is but another stepping stone. Thanks to the army of Disharmony the old leader died during the battle of Harmony one. Harmony one has been missing for almost a year or so now. The hope of that station has removed so much. The poor stallion looks back on his life. The pain he caused in the name of peace. The fact he helped remove the old leader. To put on a figurehead of the leadership. Even though rumors of abounding that this stallion kills those that don’t agree with him. He is told stories of stuffed heads that his leader Emperor Star Song talks to them whispers to them. Other races on these worlds of the zebras are now slaves or killed. It’s a clam peaceful night despite the screams of those not far from the city. Another cleansing to say another set of dead most would never know.  His door opens up and he turns to see the one that he made the deal with. He sneered in his heart but kept a fake smile on his face. He knew that something was coming and it wasn’t going to be pleasant. “Hello, Glyph I have come with a request from my friends so to speak. They wish to offer something to you.” Glyph frowns looking away and drinking from a glass of whine looking back to his so-called friend. “What might that be mister Gleemer?” The blue unicorn sets down a strange device and turns it on showing the entire universe. The only world that is not on this device is new-Celestia it hasn’t been found yet. The unicorn lifts up a controller and clicks on it and a line of fire cuts through the universe.  “My friends and I are offering you and your zebras the universe. We take that half you take this. Show the universe that you have what it takes. To be leaders and warriors again.” Glyph stares at the universe he closes his eyes watching a hoof turning into a hand reaching for the universe to grab it to mold it. He feels pride he feels that he would become a god!!. A god that will never fall never become like the old. He will become a master of it all. Then he sees shadow ships and them turning into the ships of Disharmony. He opens his eyes. “I shall do what I can to get my people to agree to this. Is there anything else?” “Yes, there is. This planet on your boarders. It’s a group of zebra that broke off from your worlds. Just like the ones on Equestria. There is a resistance forming on there. There are rumors that Savannah is there.” Glyph stared at his so-called friend. He thought all the ponies and so on from Project Harmony died along with Twilight. He stroked his hoof along his face a bit trying to relax from this fact. “That means the rumors that the elements are dead and the station is destroyed aren’t true.” “Oh, it’s true the station is no longer there. Just we have no idea what happened to the station or Twilight. Now will you talk to your leader or will I have to? We need to make sure that guards and soldiers are placed there to stop whatever she is causing.” Glyph didn’t want to do this at all. Savannah is a hero to his kind. She is a zebra that broke off from the rest. She became something that most females of his species never could do. Since they focus too much on the old ways. “I shall do what I can. I can’t really promise much. Anything else?” “Yes, I want you to also break your species off from the Alliance. We can’t have your new leader be connected to terrorists.” Glyph’s eyes go wide from the word terrorist. The station is not full of terrorist but.. A lot of what happened behind the scenes. The attack on the station is one of the biggest things he did. Since he paid for it with the kingdoms vault. “What will we do  if they don’t accept the terms on that world and give us Savannah?” “Then we can convince them to use mass drivers on the planet.” Mass drivers turn meteors from space into bombs. They toss them to the planet below and cause as much mayhem and destruction they can. “That could kill millions of ponies and zebras Gleemer. I can’t allow you..” Gleemer stares at Glyph and he went silent. He knew he is to deep now to stop this. “I…” He sat back down sighing. “Maybe you should start with that. If they don’t listen you tell the ships to fire.” “Why don’t you come. Maybe they will listen if one of the leadership is in the ship.” “This could cause an all-out war between every tribe of zebra though. I doubt this is wise for us to start. I know you wish to make Savannah pay for her crimes. But many will still defend her and do whatever they can to protect her. So I doubt it’s going to be easy.” Gleemer nodded. “No, it won’t be easy. But there is one thing that will be easy. My friends and I will go to each zebra world. We will place up wanted posters and see if any bounty hunters show up for the reward. But first, we need to destroy her claim that she is a pure-blooded zebra for being the wife of a pony.” Glyph frowned sighing stroked his head with a hoof. This was getting tougher for him to defend and stop. Because he knew full well this would cause. Many families to be destroyed. It’s not something he wants to do. “That could cause so many deaths. That could cause so many families to be destroyed. Just this might not have the needed effect. Since all the tribes from Equestria left the world in mass. It’s not something that will go well.”  Gleemer smirked. “Well if any refuse to follow the old ways. They will be put to death or exiled. Then maybe we can learn more about the planet they went to. Maybe they will lead us to that planet. But first, we need to get all world to listen. So make sure to go to your leader and get everything set up.” Glyph sighed and nodded and left the room. <00000> Many days later the laws slowly changed in all the core zebra worlds. The first law was just a little bit of freedom taken there a little bit given there. More like more protections on the streets for the zebras. The ponies felt safe from it all as well. Then the second law was destroying the names and tribes of all the zebras that left Equestria for the world unknown. Any zebra part of those tribes would be exiled and chased off. Many days later every world kicked off maybe over 100 or sometimes 1000 zebras and tried to follow them to the new planet. But they had no luck after they lost them. Then that wasn’t the line to be crossed. Since they did it in the name of Twilight. Twilight is a hero to all the zebras of the core zebra worlds.  Then the biggest law that is passed caused families to be broken. Small little wars started in all of the core planets of the zebras. Of course, the smaller planets that held some tribes of zebras refused to do these laws. A powerful leader of one of these tribes tries to find her way to New Celestia to get their hero Savannah. The leader lands at the starport and this planet is like Equis was to her eyes. After a while, she passed out from hunger.
