In the dystopian magitechnological future of Equestria, Agent Twilight Sparkle excels beyond measure against the Crown's enemies. Nothing will stop her from bringing Harmony back to the land.
Their ornate Spearshots were certainly fully loaded with magically imbued anti-everything rounds, quite ready to be brought to bear against any threat against the Royal Palace and its inhabitants. The golden weapons were, in essence, a compact high-calibre battle rifle and a long-sweeping glaive melded into a single destructive instrument of death, attached to an expertly weighted heavy staff. They weren't simple weapons to wield, and took years of training to master their usage in combat.
im guessing that's an oversimplification because I dislike when people say "oh this can beat everything. blah blah blah"
God damn, I love your descriptions and world-building you've got goin on here. All of the small random things just come together perfectly, like the pony eating breakfast maybe checking out the foal-droid and the zebra cab driver, etc. I feel like you could have achieved this chapter and the last in 50% as many words, but that fact that you didn't is what makes this story so good. That's also the whole reason I like the megacity and neon aesthetic. Fundamentally, (with no insult intended) I like the cyberpunk aesthetic because of the setting and not necessarily the story that could be told essentially the same in any other setting. Which is why I love the way you expand the setting, almost as much if not more than the actual story. Twilight is pretty much our guide through the world you've built.
Also, God-Tier-and-still-speaks-old-equestrian-and-is-very-intimidating Luna best Luna. Her character definitely reflects on what you built previously, of Equestria expanding exponentially so the low-life criminals are able to rise up, but at the end of the day the diarchy will destroy you if you actually manage to catch their ire. Anyway, this is good stuff right here, keep it up!
I half expected Luna to accidentally overdo it and put Twi unconscious or at least in an unoperatable state due to having no energy or heart failure(or other important circuitry)
Twilight was suddenly caught helpless as her limbs felt staggeringly leaden, like so much scrap. She couldn't move an inch, and was unable to tear her gaze away, only falling deeper into the unfathomable depths of those arctic orbs as a piercingly frozen phantom claw tore in and wrapped around her spine. Luna's voice became gently deeper, and as deadly serious and unforgiving as a howling blizzard. "Yet beest thou warned, Twilight Sparkle; if ever thy folly shouldst transpire once again, that thine duty unto Us is derelict in voluntary disrespect, We shalt not givest thee mercy as We now grant. Art We perfectly clear?"
Geez Luna, you're welcome for being saved from the Nightmare so that either Celestia killing you or you killing all life on the planet didn't happen. Bitch.
Oh snap, I was thinking about this story like a week ago! Good timing!

That would be Twilight's feelings on the matter I would imagine, yes.
Im just rewriting this after i reread this and i think Luna is a bit too harsh she seems to come off as quite nightmarish

Well I'm hooked on this story and I can't wait to read more of it.
