A Star Destroyer flies over the kingdom of Canterlot as it deploys thousands of small pods to the four corners of the land of Equestria. One pod headed north to the icy waste lands and crashed in the snow. In the crater, out came a Viper probe droid. It then started patroling the snowy land to find the last of the Lunar Republic forces then report back to the Equestrian troops on what it can find.

Charming Thunder was riding on a speeder bike in the deserts of Appleloosa. It was going 480 miles per hour as he was riding it. Once he stopped, he levitated a bottle of water and took a sip from it. He placed the bottle back in the bag and when he turned, he saw Rainbow Dash flying to him. He steered it around to face her and said, "This speeder bike is amazing."
"Glad you like it," Rainbow Dash said. "I'm sure that you are going to approve this walker to the army and give credit to Applejack for coming up with this design."
"Yes. Yes I shall. I must head back to Canterlot. I need to check the progress on the probes that have been sent out to the four corners of Equestria."
"Yeah. And I need to go back to the Wonderbolt squadron back at base." Charming Thunder then piloted the speeder bike back to the town where his ship is so he can go back home to Ponyville. When he arrived at town, he dismounted the walker and walked towards his ship. It was similar to the TIE Fighter design but the wing shape is different. Charming Thunder entered the cockpit of the ship and pressed some buttons and the engines then started up. The ship then floated off the ground and started to head to the direction to Canterlot.

The probe droid scanned the area for any life forms and kept moving forward when it encountered a cave. It then entered the cave and and turned on its flashlight. As it moved forward, it heard voices and decided to find out where the voices are coming from. The voice came closer and closer. The probe was undetected of their presence when it hid behind a rock. The enemy droid walking to the cave entrance carried a blaster rifle. "Did you here something?" one of the droids said.
"I thought I saw something," the other one replied. "It must've been nothing. Lets just guard the entrance just in case."
"Roger roger." The two droids then turned back to the direction it came from and the probe droid came out of hiding as they left and continued on. It then entered a some sort of laboratory. Its broadcast antennas on its head then raised up as it recorded the information it needs to send back. The queen of the changelings was looking at a test tube with a dark gray to red curved horn.
"Now that we have found this horn, I shall bring this powerful unicorn back to life and the Lunar Republic will then be unstoppable." A changeling then entered the room to make a report to its queen.
"Our sensors have indicated an intruder in our base," it said. "I think that its a spy."
"Find it. I don't want him or her to send back information about what we are planning."
"Yes, your highness." The guard then saluted and started to run to the entrance of the cave. The probe droid's antennas then lowered down and started to head back to the entrance. The two droids that were guarding at the entrance then noticed the probe and was about to fire at it but the probe fired at them first. Once it exited the cave, the changeling fired its blaster at it but missed. The droid fired back and missed as well. As the changeling was about to fire, the probe droid then exploded.The guard was surprised at what he just saw. He didn't even shoot at it. He grabbed his com link and said, "I'm afraid there is not much left."
"What was it?" the queen asked.
"A droid of some kind. I didn't even hit it that hard. It must've had a self-destruct."
"A probe droid."
"Its a good bet that the rebels know we're here."
"Then we better start the evacuation."

Three massive Star Destroyers flew in precise formation over Canterlot as TIE Fighters darted past them. An even bigger Star Destroyer took the formation in the center of the fleet formation. It was Charming Thunder's personal flagship; the Super Star Destroyer.
Charming Thunder was at the bridge watching over the fleet as TIE Fighters, Interceptors, Phantoms, and Bombers fly past his flagship. The officers were working their vast complex of electronic controls as an admiral with a gray mustach walked up to him and said, "Sir, you need to see this."
Charming Thunder turned to the admiral and said, "You found something?"
"Yes." They both then walked to a computer at the back of the bridge where the short clip from the probe droid was playing. The clip showed the image of the Changeling queen looking at an object in a test tube.
"Freeze that image," Charming Thunder said. The clip then froze to the point where the guard was talking to the queen. "Zoom in to that object." The clip then zoomed in to the cylinder tube containing a curved horn. He then took a few steps back in shock at what he just saw. "No. It can't be."
"What is it, sir?" the admiral asked.
"Contact my sister at once and plot a course to that location in the waste lands in the north." He then turned to another officer and said, "General, prepare your men." He then walked past him as he headed to the communications room to talk to Princess Cadence alone.
