Chapter 1: A Battle in the Stars

A Rebel Mon Calamari Cruiser came out of light speed and arrived at an unexplored planet that the Rebels have never heard of. Right beside the cruiser were two Nebulan-B medical frigates, five Gallofree medium transports which are carrying ships and other vehicles, and two Rebel Blockade Runners. Inside the cruiser, Luke Skywalker was scanning the planet for any life forms on the planet. On the monitor, there were three third dimensional images rotating a pony, a unicorn, and a pegasus. "Yup. There are definitely lifeforms on this planet," Luke said.

A rebel trooper came in the room and informed Commander Skywalker, "Commander, we got three Star Destroyers coming out of hyperspace."

"Sound the alarm and get everyone to their fighters," Luke replied.

"Yes, sir."

The pilots rushed to their X-Wings, Y-Wings, and A-Wings and boarded them so that they are ready for take off. The Star Destroyers then came out of light speed and deployed TIE Fighters and the battle began with a lot of fighters being destroyed in action.

Charming Thunder was sound asleep in his bed. A firework like sound was heard coming from outside of Rarity's boutique. He ignored the sound and went under his blanket to make the sound quieter. The sound was heard again but this time it was closer. He then went to his pillow and and puts his head under it. When the sound was heard again he couldn't take it anymore he then jumped out of his bed and shouted, "Where is that sound coming from?" He heard a knock on the door and opened it. There stood Rarity with her mane all messed up from her sleep. "Oh. You heard the sound, too?"

"Yes. I mean can't a pony get some shut eye around here?" Rarity replied. They then heard a knock on the front door. "Who could that be? Maybe it's our friends having this concern as well." They rushed to the door and when they answered it, there appeared Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack. "Let me guess. You all heard it, too."

"Yes," they all replied.

"The animals back at my cottage all got scared when that sound was first heard," Fluttershy said.

"The baby cakes started crying at the Surgarcube Corner when they heard fireworks," Pinkie Pie said.

Charming Thunder then pointed his hoof to where the sound was coming from and said, "Uh, I don't think that it is fireworks."

"Thats because it isn't," an anonymous voice shouted. It was Princess Luna who was also concerned.

"Then what is it?" Charming Thunder asked.

"I am not sure. But I think we know somepony who can help us get a closer look."

"Maybe Twilight can help us with that," Rainbow Dash said. They both nodded in agreement and started to run to Twilight's house.

---------------------

At Twilight's house, Twilight was still asleep not knowing what was going on outside. Shining Armor and Princess Cadence was couldn't sleep because of the loud noise. Cadence walked to Twilight's room and said, "Twilight? Twilight, wake up." She woke up and got out of her bed.

"Wha'? Huh? Whats going on?" Twilight asked.

"Look outside," Shining Armor said. "I know that it is not fireworks." The group suddenly heard a knock on the door and rushed to it. "Oh. Its you guys. You too, Princess Luna."

"May we use your telescopes to see what is going on in the sky?" Charming Thunder asked.

"Sure." The whole group including Cadence and Shining Armor rushed to the telescope so that they can find some answers. Twilight then pointed their telescopes to the explosions that are in the sky and saw some spaceships in the sky.

"There's a battle going on in space," Luna said. "but where did they come from?"

---------------------

"TIE Interceptors coming in," Wedge said. "and... Bombers right behind them. They're heading for your cruiser, Luke."

"Wipe out as many as you can then," Luke replied on the comlink. "if they hit the ship, tell the transports carrying our cargo to land in a safest spot on the planet." The TIE Bomber squadron was starting to make their run on the Mon Calamari cruiser. One of the bombers destroyed the engines so the ship was about to blow. Luke went to a nearest console and said "Attention: all troops head to the escape pods this ship is going to blow. I repeat: the ship is going to blow." Everyone including Luke were heading to the escape pods to go to the planet's surface. The transports were flying to the planet as he planned. They went to the forest so that the empire wont find them there. Escape pods were launched to the forest as well. The rest of the ships landed on the surface and some jumped to light speed to head back to the fleet.

The Star Destroyers however stayed and flew to blockade the planet to make sure no one escapes.

---------------------

Aboard the Star Destroyer, the Dark Lord of the Sith named Darth Vader was standing at the bridge watching the cruiser blow up to smithereens. An Imperial officer walked up to him and reported, "The rebels have escaped, my lord."

Darth Vader turned to the officer and said, "And what of the crew on that cruiser?"

"The cruiser had no survivors because there were escape pods launched to the planet."

"Skywalker must be on one of those pods. General, prepare your troops to search those pods."

"Yes, my lord," the officer replied and bowed. He then left the bridge to prepare the Stormtroopers.

"Commander," Vader said to the commander of the Star Destroyer. "send a probe droid down at the surface. I want to know if there are life forms on this planet."

"Yes, my lord," the commander replied.

---------------------

"The battle," Charming Thunder said while he was looking through the telescope. "it... stopped." The group then looked through the telescopes and saw the for triangle shaped ships just floating their like they are waiting for something. Suddenly, one of he saw something heading towards Ponyville. "What is that heading towards us? It looks like a small rock." The rock crashed in front of Twilights house. The explosion was so quiet as a butterfly.

"Come on," Cadence said. "Lets check out what it is." Everyone nodded in agreement and headed to the front door to find out what crashed in Ponyville.
