Oh shit's getting real serious now! I love how Sombra is - he's a lot more proactive here than in the show, which is nice.
Poor Marcus. That part with his friends and family all accusing him of letting them die must have been like a kick in the nuts for him. (hugs him)
I also can't wait to see the parts with Stephan and the dark door, and the rest of the fight. I'm just so happy to be a part of this.
Dayum, sounds hella interesting!
Um, has King Sombra just posessed Marcus?
This is bad juju.
And that door, it's the door from the S3 pilot episodes that shows your greatest fear! This is gonna be interesting — and unpleasant.
Oh I had a feeling the queen was using the Crystal Heart or the Tree of Harmony to power the barrier. Ah the door of fear, classic
Twilight Sparkle needed Spike to break the spell of the Dark Door; who is going to do likewise for Stephan?
If Sombra feeds off of despair, fear, and hatred, then Marcus and Stephan must represent the ultimate power-up; it will be interesting to see what Sombra in his right mind will do with the increased power.
Of all the villains we've yet seen on the show, Sombra is the one with the most ignored possibilities. I like how you are showing him as much more than a malevolent yet mindless force, able and willing to focus on the weak points of the psyches of any opponent. Given time, such an opponent could even face down Princess Celestia or Princess Luna.
Gah, the french is made worse by my poor translation. I am sad that I can't make heads or tails of the german though... Then again my ex was teaching me to speak it, not read it.
... and then somehow Sombra gets it into his head that only he can rule Equestria--both of them! That said, he makes an alliance with Canon!Equestria against TCB!Equestria; cue the Enemy Mine Trope. "Only I will rule this Equestria, not the... Tyrant Sun! Cryysstaaalls....!"

Wow, thirty-two weeks ago?
Holy shit, that was a while back.
4297850 yeah... you late man...
4297881
Heh heh,
I'm ancient.
And now we get to see why Celestia sent Twilight to get the Crystal Heart and had them leave the elements behind. Do not feed the mana-sucking wraiths.
Wow, you make it sound that I have cancer; which is not that far from it don't get me wrong, but I didn't think it was such a big of a deal. I mean, I am coming back to help, may that be from a hospital bed with Wi-Fi or from my cellphone that was left out of my reach for too long, I was indeed assured to come back.
But then again. The week had just been bad news after bad news. So yes, I believe true that I may not have more life in me by the end of this week. Or I will feel as alive as a person that just escaped death. In all regards thanks for the little mention, I feel embarrassed, and happy that someone remembers my existence.
See ya around mates. Or if fate has it. Not.
This truly a great expansion on Human Vs Pony fan fictions of The Conversion Bureau. So great that we won't go quietly into the night in this story, even if we lose.
Makes it even better that there's even TCB Ponies on Humanity's side with the addition of canon Ponies coming to help Humanity.
Here's to another chapter.
4298033 sry but no. It part of an image someone showed me and the Celestia it had was exactly how imagine TCBCelestia to look like.
although my other side story, Multiverse Journey may have Discord appear in the Marvel universe just for kicks. No promises.
4298014 Dont make me get the white out... you get yourself straight then come back to us. Got it?
4298055
Sure thing!
But I'm still afraid as to what the white means.
Jesus... This is going to be real ugly isn't it?
Crystal Cadance? Possibly Sombra as an ally?
After all, who else has an in-depth knowledge of crystal magic?
The positives first. And there's much to talk about.
Action! Adventure in the crystal kingdom! An appearance from Sombra AND backstory that can give Luna some much-needed character development, combined with Discord and Celestia actually admitting both sides were wrong in their own ways! Genuine DEVELOPMENT. I'm just sorry it took so long to get here. And seeing Marcus getting taken over...surprising twist, and so far, well done.
Unfortunately...a few negatives I do need to call out.
Trixie...pretending to be Dash's DAD. And this wasn't so much as to get her off guard because she could have done that just by, oh, I dunno, turning into a Wonderbolt and then whacking her in the face when Dash tries to pose for a picture. No, this comes off personal. And instead of realizing this was more about pettiness than preparing them, Stephen is king douche. Congratulations you two. You are now acting JUST as bad as the very people you're fighting, because you have no regards for the methods you use, no regret at the pain you cause, and stubbornly think YOUR'E in the right without considering how much you'll hurt others by what you do. And how DARE the Mane Six be against killing. I mean, what do they think they are, hero-ohhh. Wait. Right. They're supposed to be better than that.
And I know what you're thinking. It's a war. Correction. It is a war in which there is magic, technology up the wazoo, incredible spells, transformation effects and eighteen thousand different options AND the best solution to stopping ALL this mess, as they have in fact found out, is just stopping this ONE person, the Solar Tyrant. Being disgusted with killing is not a weakness. Compassion is strength. Something Trixie used to understand. If you start becoming "okay" with killing so casually or even killing PERIOD, then you're no better than the people you claim to be fighting against. Time and time again in fiction we've seen examples of people fighting against others who were trying to kill them and they won. How? Because they were creative, intelligent and noble. All of which the Mane Six are. Superman. Edward Elric. Spider-Man. Vash the Stampede. All of them experienced fighters who saved their worlds more times than you've brushed your teeth, my friend. You wish to say THOSE people don't know how to handle themselves in a fight? Or even a war?
Trixie is badass. I think I speak for all of us , Drawdex, when I say we hope you get better soon.

First. Trixie turning good ole pops. Its not just there for shock value. Its to show just how good Trixie is at being a spy and assassin. The fact that she could imitate Rainbow's father to a degree that it can fool both Rainbow and Fluttershy, who should literally known about him their whole lives, as a show of skill and know how of her job. You also realize that she hates them with a passion because of what they do, she is stilling struggling with that because of the earlier bombshells.
Superman. Edward Elric. Spider-Man. Vash the Stampede. You using people that have the skills or abilites to change the world. Sometimes in more ways than one. Trixie doesn't have that. She wasn't a powerful unicorn on par with Twilight, she was a stage magician. And it stated in story as well, most of their recruits are laborers and retired ponies. They dont have anything powerful on their side, the one pony that could have made a difference was captured and turn to stone. So, they had to change. They had to become soldiers just to stand a chance.
there is no positive side to war. There is only the knowledge that what you are doing is good for all of the world. If the world needs monsters to fight monsters, then so be it. If the stakes were thrown down, you use everything you got to make it last.
4298539
I would say far from just as bad. Yes, the training is harsh and what Trixie did was a little uncalled for. But they are not the ones destroying an entire species. War I think is not soft, your going to have to tough to be tough and smart to survive. You may end up doing bad things and make harsh decisions.
HLF in this story are far worse, they have uploaded videos of them torturing Ponies to death.

email me these errors.

4298213 who?
4298702
The Big Bad from the anime Inuyasha.
4298644
No, I wouldn't. Because as Superman famously said in "What's so funny about truth, justice and the American way", "I am aware there are bad men in charge and the world is not an equitable place. But you don't throw morality in the garbage because life's tough". He faced off people perfectly willing to slaughter their enemies, antiheroes of great power...and he beat them all whilst making it LOOK like he was killing them. Why? To show the ferocity, the cruelty, and show how disgusting it was to resort to that level. And it worked. Because people need to see that there's a better way. That if they don't listen to their better angels, what good are they? If your standards and morals can be so easily shoved aside, what point do they serve?
As the excellent TMNT series from the early 2000's said: He who fights without honor will DIE without honor. And as Doctor WHO famously said "If we fight like animals, we'll DIE like animals!" You can fight back and fight back hard. But what will it profit a man to gain the world if he should lose his soul?
4298014 Of course we remembered!
We missed you!
4299169
4299290 welp. This is a lost cause, im not even going to bother trying to defend it.
Bye guys.
4299290
Look, I find the story has issues too, but don't let one chapter spoil the entire work. A few cool-down, more lighthearted chapters are needed for a story like this.
4299426 I mean im not going talk to you anymore. before I do something rash.
4299434
I'm sorry to hear that. I truly do have great respect for your work. This story deserves every Like and Upvote it gets. I just have issues with how you sometimes treat the characters in the story.
4299434
Red, they just hating don't need to respond to all hate or dislike.
4299499 its fine. Personal discussion with him, through email. Not talking to the other one, the one about the mood. Ignoring him. Troll bait is obvious.
4298055
Who needs the Marvel version? I actually find the myth version of Loki to be quite sympathetic.
Sure, that "Dart" incident got someone killed, but it was a ****ing dart! How exactly could he expect that to be lethal?!? He then gets tortured to omnicidal insanity over said case of manslaughter. Manslaughter, not premeditated murder, I might add. Yes, Loki blew up Asgard, but Odin saw it coming. He saw the Dart thing coming. That was the whole point of giving up his eye, after all. And he did NOTHING to prevent it! A simple "Hay, son. That prank with the dart you have planned? It isn't going to go over very well. For anyone involved. You might want to think of something else." would have sufficed!
...and speaking of Odin being a jerk and an idiot, Loki's son Fenris was trusting an apparently obedient, if not entirely house broken, and he gets chained up in the yard for who knows how many millennia! The fact that this act directly results in Odin's own death only adds to how much of an idiot Odin comes across as in the original text.
4298425
4299532 ... huh... so that is what he meant...
score another shout without trying.
4298539 You also have to keep in mind of the fact that there is no cure to the newfoals' condition; only death will make their souls whole again and set them free. Which means even if TCB Celestia were to be defeated, only mass euthanasia will return the newfoals to normal.
4299169
I love how you keep referencing OP superman in a story trying to show the more gritty side of a war, and trying to show that the immortals arn't all powerful
Ok, humour over, Seriously, screw superman...and that's all I have to say. I don't agree with your option in but you bring up some good points and don't sound like a peace loving hippy in the process.
So since Twilight and co. don't save the Crystal Empire this time around, does that mean no Twicorn? Or will Twicorn have a part in bringing down the Tyrant!Celestia?
4299856
That's a very good question. And it would be awesome to see Twilight becoming an Alicorn to fight her TCB self.

Oh, you!
After Trixie beat Rainbow Dash and I saw the start of Stephan's speech I just realized why he was the perfect guy to be the one training the Mane Six plus Lyra, while any higher ranking soldier from the TCB world could be good enough to train them in the art of war, it's just that there will be no one as STRICT as these two and it's because they just got out of a battle with their Mane Six. His hatred of their evil counterparts will make him lash out at them much harsher for any mistakes they make during training than any other soldier. Not only that this is also good training for Stephan and Trixie to try to get used to the younger Canon!Mane Six so he'll be able to learn how to fight with them and also so the enemy won't be using the Friend or Foe Gambit on him when he finally gets used to them. This will definitely be the most brutal week the Mane Six will ever go though, and I'm kind of glad to see you guys trying to SHOW that training and its specific character development moments during the training week. I thought I we would eventually get is "they trained" and that's it.
What's more, there's bigger things happening than simple character development just as Celestia pushing herself too hard as always to show that she can handle the horrible things happening in the TCB world that she can handle, like the Crystal Empire episode is now being handled by this story's main characters rather than the Mane Six. Although I still feel a bit sad that Discord is admitting that he was wrong for some reason, but I guess it's because he's been chewing out Celestia over her work that no one else never swung that back on him for some reason. Because of that I feel compelled that he did meet a different version of Celestia during his journey that really laid out those things that Discord admitted in this chapter. Like he met a hot-blooded version of Celestia in one universe and told him these things while they worked together for some reason and his final quotes of that particular conversation is basically him saying: "Geez, kick me when I'm down while you're at it." Anyway, you pretty much showed why everyone should avoid Sombra's evil cloud thingy and now I think a rematch with Celestia and Marcus is about to be underway and I'm betting that Stephan and Luna will take the role of Spike and Twilight in this round. Although I bet that Discord might participate in the fight as well to help cure Marcus. Although I wonder how a limping Stephan will get the Crystal Heart to Cadence if he has taken Spike's role in the Empire's recovery. Speaking of Spike, has this one decided on whether or not he should participate in the war or not and is about to go through training with the rest of Equus' forces or is he still trying to decide.
Really what Trixie did was uncalled for, that she is a good spy and that she had mastered her trades spells I understand ... that you want to show that she is powerful I can also understand ... that Dash needed to be thrown down a few pegs I can understand ... that the training is going to be harsh I can understand
but the trick Trixie did with Dash's Dad wasn't needed and there would have been better ways to show how good Trixie is (really even with my dislike to Dash I wanted her tp punch Trixie in the face)
also in which season this is passing? I forgot
javascript:void(0);
also Celestia's breakdown was expected seeing it back
so Sombra is coming back is this MLP Sombra or your Sombra?
Wowowowow, another chapter, sweeeeet, now to start reading.
4300295 try as I might. I couldn't find a reason not to use him.
Spitfire? The only Spitfire she knows hates Rainbow Dash with a passion
wonderbolts in general? Rainbow Dash of her world is in charge of them.
Her friends? Not enough oomph to show Rainbow that she is serious. Plus useless as a disguise when they are right there
her father. Trixie had taken a gamble on it if you think about it. There could a big difference between the worlds. But it is the one thing that remain consisted and Trixie felt necessary to pull out the big guns.
Really, if you are spy, you don't pull punch, you drive the blade in the back as deep as you can.
4300571
I understand now why Trixie acted that way but since I'm not a spy nor in a war for survival I still have a dislike for that action
still the rest of the chapter was awesome (but you already know that)
Hmmm gotta ask as for what you have planned how far into the story are we? Guess I'm impatient to see her fall.
4302518 truthfully?
Hm...
60- 70%
Maybe?
