A World Without Color

I Beginnings

Ace went to his black & white job at Apple Acres.
He picked grey apples as the white sun rose and as it fell he went home.
He went to sleep. The next morning, he did the same. It seemed as if it never ended. Ever since Starlight Glimmer came to power, nopony had any cutie marks, no colors, everypony was the same, even down to the tail and mane. Anypony who was born before she had risen had their cutie marks surgically removed, their eye color changed, and their mane and tail dyed and cut. All by force.

That was the price of 'Equality' as she put it. Ace had always thought otherwise, though he never had the guts to speak out. Anypony who dared were sent to the dungeon without a trial. One was even executed. Everypony looked the exact same. Ace was sick of it.
