Prologue
Grievous was excited. In the heat of battle type of way. He marched across the small platform that jutted out from a large cliff like structure, his ship, The Soulless One, a customized Feethan Ottraw Scalable Assemblies Belbullab-22 starfighter resting on the edge of the platform. As he made his way across the platform with his large quick strides, he raised his electrostaff approaching the figure holding onto the edge of the platform. At last, the filthy Jedi Kenobi falls! He was about halfway across, electrostaff raised, when Kenobi used the force to draw the blaster that had been dropped during their fight to his hand. He raised his arm and aimed for the center of Grievous chest, and in that moment, as Grievous was halfway across, weapon raised, Kenobi fired. The blaster blot hit perfectly, a small explosion erupted around his heart, exposed when Kenobi pushed apart his chest plates just earlier, now on fire. Despite this, the shot was not fatal. Kenobi realized this as Grievous staggered back and groaned, but remained standing and intact. He fired again, and a second later, again. These extra shots finally did the trick, overloading Grievous systems, as the fire and explosions caused a backlash, a chain reaction. Grievous made a cry as he began to shake, his head raised. Suddenly his eyes themselves, connected to his cybernetic system, caught on fire. A pop was heard as his few real organs and cybernetics finally succumbed to the flames. He collapsed backward, dead. Kenobi pulled himself up from the ledge, and made his way leisurely across the platform, blaster still in hand. As he approached the corpse of Grievous he gave it a look over, making sure it was dead. Satisfied and slightly disgusted, he threw his blaster on the corpse as he walked past, “So uncivilized” he said. Truly barbaric weapons blasters were, compared to the elegant civilized blade of a Jedi. Obi wan made his way back to the battle, to help his clones finish mopping up the droids………
Separatist dreadnought: Invisible hand
In hyperspace: unknown location
Destination: unknown
“Engage the hyperdrive!” Came from a b1 commander’s vocabulator.
“Sir, we are already in hyperspace” came the response from the droid at the navigator station.
“What?! But then what are those green streaks out the viewport? If we were in hyperspace they would be blue” reasoned the commander.
“Sir, the hyperdrive is already running, and the streaks match the shape of hyperspace streaks” responded the navigator.
The dimwitted battle droid commander was not convinced. “Run diagnostics, something is not right”
The navigator he was speaking to however was no longer there.
“OM-17229? Where did you go? OM-17229, respond!” The commander demanded.
“I am here commander” came the reply from OM-17229. “Commander?” He questioned, as the droid in question was no longer in his seat. Or anywhere that his sensors could perceive. In his place sat General Grievous, the feared leader of the droids of the Confederacy of Independent Star Systems. Grievous for his part was confused. He looked around, recognizing his capital ship. How he got there he had no idea. In fact the last thing he remembered was preparing to lead the attack on Coruscant.
“What’s the situation? What’s going on? Where are we?” He demanded.
The OM-17229 responded “Well sir we are...huh that’s funny. I don’t remember where we set the hyperdrive coordinates”.
Grievous was getting very concerned. Even these dim witted droids were capable of plotting a course and remembering it. Despite their numerous past failures, this was new. That combined with his own fuzzy memory and the green streaks out of the viewport made him very very concerned.
OM-17229 brought him out of his thoughts. “Sir, we are exiting hyperspace”. The green streaks out the view port became elongated as the ship made it’s exit. Suddenly the room got fuzzy, and doubles appeared for every droid on the ship, including Grievous. The droids processors and Grievous mind suddenly became overwhelmed. A shrill whine came from the droids and the ship, while a cry from Grievous. Half the droids on the ship, including their doubles then disappeared. Then they too disappeared while the ones that had disappeared first reappeared. Then they all disappeared. The ships finally shot out into real space above a strange lush planet, with a dwarf sun and moon orbiting it. Near the planet, behind the ship, could be seen the spirals of a galaxy, as well as some type of energy surrounding it. The ship continued on until it reached the gravitational pull of the planet. Engines still working, it began an orbit. The bridge however, was completely empty. Not a single droid resided on the entire dreadnaught either. The hanger was devoid expect for a few transports. All the escape pods remained, expect one. All the hallways were barren and the only sound that could be heard was groaning and creaking of the metal, with some minor beeps from various instruments and other onboard electronics.
“Man that was a great party Pinkie!” Rainbow dash said vigorously.
“Thanks Rainbow! Can’t have anything but the best for the anniversary of the opening of the friendship school” Pinkie said as she bounced along with her friends on there way from the school to a grassy knoll. Behind them trailed various students as the made their way outside.
Twilight looked about to explode from anticipation. “Oh I just can't wait to see what Luna is going to do with the stars tonight! Who knows what she had planned when she said she had a ‘astronomical surprise’ for the anniversary party!”
“Who said it has anything to do with the stars?”. A smirking Luna and Celestia descended from above.
“Princesses, my goodness don’t scare us like that dear” responded a startled Rarity.
“Well if it ain’t the stars then what?” asked the Element of Honesty.
“See for yourself” replied Luna.
Suddenly the sky light up. Luna’s horn glowed and the stars began rearranging themselves into constellations of the Main 6 standing in front of a school.
Twilight gaped “I...don’t know what to say.”
“It’s simply marvelous!” admired Rarity.
“So...awesome!” whispered Rainbow in an awe struck voice.
“Ain’t that just something.” Applejack turned to Luna barley containing the emotion in her voice, “I’m mighty honoured you'd do this for us.”
“Best…..party….ever!!!!!” exclaimed Pinkie.
“For us? Oh you didn’t need to do that. Not that I don’t appreciate it of course!” Flutter shy hastily added.
“No I didn’t need to, but in what world would anyone not want to show how much we appreciate you and your friends and all you have done for equestria, especially in spreading the knowledge of friendship to everycreature.” replied a now soft smiling Luna.
“Wow, you even added a shooting star!” came the sudden voice of Smolder, who was with the other students just behind the Mane 6.
Luna frowned “No, I didn’t.” she replied.
Some of them began to notice the star get closer. Luna and Celestia began to worry and were about to cast a shield spell when it suddenly went rocketing right over their heads with a screeching sound as is passed into the everfree forest.
Rainbow looked at the direction that the object had gone with a mischievous glint in her eye. “Race ya!” she yelled as she zoomed up leaving only a rainbow colored vapor trail in her wake.
“Wait, it might be dangerous!” Twilight called out but it was too late. She then turned to Luna and Celestia but Luna, anticipating her question, spoke before she had a chance. “Starlight can watch the students, no chance we are missing this, besides, it did technically come from my domain so it is my duty to investigate it myself.”
“Well, in that case, we better hurry.” Twilight said. They all dashed in the direction Rainbow had gone.

Is the guy in the picture really Grievous? He looks nothing like he does, well, everywhere else.

That's what he looked like before, i believe it was an accident or a battle where he got critically injured and the best they could save was.... well everything his robot body had that was organic.

It's actually a fan art reimagining him as more organic than he actually is. More like Vader, then him just having eyes, brain, heart, and a couple odd ends of organics left. I debating whether to change grevious into this version when he came to equstria as to allow him small level force connection, but decided to rather include actual force users later on, users that may or may not also have endings the force wasn't satisfied with;)
Was still a great and unique cover image so I kept it

Thanks, always switch the letters around on his name for some reason and although I know I do it I don't always catch it.

Whoops on my part thinking it was official art and not fan art. But damn it’s still fantastic! :)

Also Grevious's ship had a bomb hidden that destroyed most of him so a guy then had someone to stick cybernetics to and give to dooku as a gift. Dooku told the lie that Jedi rigged the ship. Now you got super powerful bad ass cyborg bent on killing evil jedi:)

When you type fast it's more likely to make errors like writing we're, which doesn't make any sense in that sentence, instead of were, which is what I meant to put. That is why you read over your writings 10 or more times to guarantee you get all those errors you accidentally make without realizing, instead of only 2-5 times like I do. But I admit, patience is a skill I have worked very hard at and devolped significantly, but still yet to master.
Thank you for pointing it out so I could quickly fix it.

I can relate with that lol
No B1s?
