Morgan of Equis

by Kitsune_Kenshi

Day 1: Once Borderless (Part 2)

The war raged.

However, peace tends to find its way around. Despite Griffonia gaining the uppertalon throughout the war, they seemed to have forgotten that they were alone. Griffons ran out of supplies, rebel fighters from occupied territories fought back, and the Allies were slowly outnumbering the Griffons. The once invincible Griffon military collapsed within a few years. The Allies captured and reverse-engineered the Griffonian technologies and formed their Air Forces; it was known that the Griffonian Air Force during this period was nearly invincible; Tartarus, even brought a super warplane at the end of the war attempting to reverse the tide.

They failed.

Griffonia surrendered after 4 years of war. They were forced to sign treaties, suffered severe punishments, and got their military forces taken apart by the victorious allies.

This marked the end of the first global warfare of Equis. It was later known as the Griffonian War. Sadly, once a fire began, it spread. The aftermath for Griffonia is tough, way too tough for its civilians and its economy; not only did they lose the trust and all trading partners, but their privileges were also stripped from them as well. Everycreature, survivors or not, grew hatred towards the Griffons.

Pretty ironic huh?

Equestria was greatly weakened after the Twilight 1994EF04 crisis and the Griffonian War, however, thanks to the help from its allies, Equestria was able to recover 10 moons earlier than the Griffonians. Princess Luster knew what was coming for her country and the world around her; she knew the fact that this world is no longer the friendly world she knew of like the ones during Twilight's reign. And that the nation needs to prepare itself physically and mentally for it.

While Equestria and its neighbors began their post-war recovery operation, the Dragonlands on the other side of the ocean had other plans. Empress Ember already made it clear that no aggression is to be made against the Griffonians due to the fear that another conflict may occur, the dragons have already lost so much in the war. However, this decision created tension and unwillingness among her subjects, especially the Anti-pony political parties. Ember has already secretly pissed off many of her underground rivals, by establishing long-lasting international relationships and friendships with the Equestrians, many rumored that the young Empress lost her will to fight due to the amount of time she spent with those weak-minded ponies.

The aggressiveness grew significant when a certain incident occurred; A Saddle Arabian Tornado suddenly trespassed the borders of the Leviathan Gulf heading straight towards the inland Dragonland. Dragon Air Defense Force immediately send two Su-27 to intercept. When they got to the Saddle Arabian Tornado, they signaled the reconnaissance aircraft to leave; and of course, instead of leaving, the Saddle Arabian aircraft decided to ignore the Dragons. As the dragons prepared for a warning shot, they suddenly found themselves on a collision course with the Tornado, which banked towards them without any warning signs. The result was; a midair collision occurred with a single Su-27 splashed, the Dragon pilot bailed out in time, however, the Tornado pilot was killed.

The Saddle Arabian ambassador came to a meeting with Ember demanding a reason for the dragons 'purposely' ramming down their Tornado when it was on its 'normal' training routine. Ember, instead of showing her 'aggressive dragon' side as the rest of her subjects wanted, Ember backed off with peace treaties and further investigations. The Saddle Arabians demanded a large amount of economic compensation and other bullshits. Well, of course, some dragons found out the real deal due to some political shifting. And yeah, they're not happy.

That's when the Empress's underground rivals decided it was their time. Rumors were spread all over Dragonland about Ember secretly contacting Saddle Arabian high military officials about exchanging highly classified intelligence for some 'advanced' military gear or some shit. And what's more bullshit? They believed in that crap. As tension continued to boost with more rumors and aggressiveness, active protests and attacks were starting to occur. Furthermore, an assassination plan was secretly operational against Ember by those rival parties.

Fortunately enough for Ember, she had Garble. Yeah, that hero of Dragonland. He joined the military later and worked his way to the top. Became an intelligence officer and secretly became a spy. He was later sent to Saddle Arabia after the Griffonian War; he returned 2 weeks ago and heard about the rumor. The man was in full try-hard mode diving into the core of the rival party, digging up some info, and was able to get out alive.

Ember was then escorted toward her safe house. However, on her way out, she was shot by a rival sniper. With this set of fire, tons of rival members stormed her palace and took over complete military control; including the nuclear-capable ICBM silos. The high ranks that were supportive of Ember were executed publicly, and the rival party named themselves 'Jormungandr'. A week later, the entire Dragonland was taken over by the Jormungandrs, with its leader Styx Grumbler being the dictator leader.

As for Ember? She survived, however, at the cost of an eye. Garble contacted the Equestrian Intelligence Agency secretly to accept Ember into Equestria undercover. She's traumatized though; both due to the betrayal of her subjects and the fact that she just whizzed by with the reaper itself.

Dragonland, no, that time it was called 'Slangerjord', and now owns the entire Dragon military. Equestrians and their allies were terrified, not only the fact that the Dragons had 3 nuclear-powered submarines capable of firing twelfth ICBMs all armed with nuclear warheads, but also that their ICBM silos are ranged to wipe out Manehattan and several other major cities. However, direct military actions were forbidden by Princess Luster to prevent another war; she looked to the other side of honor; the mercenaries.

The Hikiro Mercenary Corp; which was not world-wide known yet. This mercenary corp is a Kirinese military organization, they have the best Mercenary squadron, will at least until they disassembled a few moons later. Hikiro's Peril Squadron was the ones paid to wipe out the Jormungandrs; say, they did make the job easier; although did lose two pilots at the end of the showdown, did save the world though, blew up several silos and sunk their nuclear subs. Ember returned to her throne after this entire mess was completely over, she executed all of the surviving members of Jormungandrs and their families. That set off the alarm for her hidden rivals; Dragonland was finally at their peace.

For another 10 moons, Equis is seemingly at peace once again. There are Surprisingly hardly any huge conflicts around, however, the borders were planted. There's no turning back.

Saddle Arabia and Zebrica lately, are having unusual military actions again, much to the Equestrians' concern; the two conflicts decades ago must've planted PTSDs throughout the continent; Equestria and its allies all had their focused on the two countries which were now considered rogue nations. The Zerbican and Saddle Arabian ambassadors moved out of Equestria two weeks before it happened. They cut off economic trade with Equestria and their allies, now completely into aggressors. They left off the ultimatum for Equestria, their reason being: Equestrians interfere with their national political ideas and religions, and had too much of their military forces dispatched to their country. The part that pissed them off the most, well, massive casualties in the past decades done by the Equestrians on their 'Peace' expedition to clear out 'Terrorists' threats in the Saddle Arabian territory.

Their attack on the Dragon Fleet in the Leviathan Gulf triggered both sides; at least 3 'Gemstone' Class destroyers were sunk, only 1/4 of the crew made it back alive, and their flagship, DNS 'Ember' class heavy cruiser was severely damaged, it survived though, it's now under repair in a classified location. The Dragons weren't expecting such a fierce attack done by the Saddle Arabians, however, it was later known that the Griffons were secretly shipping weapons in support of their war partners. Did I mention the Griffonian politicians were easy to bear a grudge?

There it is.

Yet another war.

Equestrians and her allies; The Kingdom of Hippogriffia, Federation of Yayakstan, Republic of Kirina, Changeling Kingdom, and Chrystal Empire; though not being a big fan of making this even worst, tried their last afford to peacefully negotiate with the rogues. It failed, of course, their negotiator was shot down the moment he entered Saddle Arabian airspace.

Saddle Arabians and Zebricans expanded their territory, taking out every small nation on their way, the Griffonians used their landscape advantages to continuously fire off Long range cruise missiles in an attempt to drag the Equestrian Army down from intercepting their partners. This later became a stalemate for the Equestrians as the Griffonians destroyed their supply routes, the Saddle Arabians and the Zebricans were like flies; every now and then their troops launched small attacks on the Equestrians' outpost; by the end of the year, the Equestrians were down from 500,000 to 120,000 at most.

Seadroy's squadron was formed recently; about four months ago; their job is to locate and destroy Griffonian long-range weaponry launch sites.

Well, I was caught in one of their operations, however, due to intelligence failures, Seadroy's squadron suffered great losses. Then I showed up. You get the rest of the story.

Anyway, that's the current war effort.

Sucks for the Equestrians.

To be honest I'm still not sure whether I'll be with them until the end of the war; seemed like a long way off...

So, have you found a reason to fight yet? Buddy.

Great story! Been a while since I read Ace Combat crossover fanfic. Track it to see how this goes, this is gonna be interesting.

Indeed I have buddy, I’ve been recently watching Ace Combat Fan’s replay and suddenly a thought came in my mind; I’m not good at writing in existed character’s’ perspective, so I was like maybe I could write about Pixy’s plane (Btw Pixy is my god in Ace Combat). And here it is.

[OP Omni God-Emperor Doom]

Finally, a potentially good Ace Combat crossover/displaced story for a very, very long time.

Is Morgan the only Ace Combat Fictional Super Plane/Jet that will show up?

CFA-44 Nosferatu is my personal favorite from AC6.

Then there's the ADF-11F Raven for AC7. And other classics like ADF-01 Falken, XFA-27, ASF-X Shinden II, X-02 Wyvern/X-02S Strike Wyvern, the ADFX-01 playable variant of Morgan itself, XFA-33 Fenrir, GAF-1 Varcolac, AC3 futuristic planes/jets, etc....

And good real-life "experimental" aircraft like Su-47 Berkut, F-15S/MTD, FB-22 Strike Raptor, and F-16XL. Rare cutting-edges with the F/A-18F Super Hornet Block III, F-2A -Super Kai-, and MiG-35D Super Fulcrum.

And finally, it wouldn't be Ace Combat if we don't see those many, many very iconic gigantic superweapons.

awesome chapter mate keep it up cant wait for the next chapter

[OP Omni God-Emperor Doom]

Anyway, that's the current war effort.

Sucks for the Equestrians.

To be honest I'm still not sure whether I'll be with them until the end of the war; seemed like a long way off...

So what? You want to selflessly abandon them for mercenary work?

No offense, I'm just saying in the defense of the ponies and their allies plight.

I'm not exactly totally against the mercenary thing.

Since technically, most of the Ace Combat protagonists on mercenaries themselves like Phoenix, Cipher, Antares One, Reaper, Project Wingman's Hitman 1/Monarch.

And technically, Nemo itself ( Due to the multiple choice of allegiance. )

Pretty ironic huh?

Welp, never mind then. The Griffins were quite ironically the Belkans themselves. And of course, they embarrassly lose.

Although, I want to know where their own "Superplane/Jet" is?

Is it really destroyed?

Equestria was greatly weakened after the Twilight 1994EF04 crisis and the Griffonian War, however, thanks to the help from its allies, Equestria was able to recover 10 moons earlier than the Griffonians. Princess Luster knew what was coming for her country and the world around her; she knew the fact that this world is no longer the friendly world she knew of like the ones during Twilight's reign. And that the nation needs to prepare itself physically and mentally for it.

I actually do hope that this version of Equestria won't end up as setting of G5.

Because I really don't like the "future timeline" the ponies become stupidly became racist/xenophobic against each other again. And the other races "mysteriously disappeared"!?

Where all of the Mane Six's own efforts went right around the toilet. Sunny and her old friends are fine, but still.

Sure, this Equestria ain't any better. Due to the asteroid and the many wars. But at least it's still G4 era.

[OP Omni God-Emperor Doom]

While Equestria and its neighbors began their post-war recovery operation, the Dragonlands on the other side of the ocean had other plans. Empress Ember already made it clear that no aggression is to be made against the Griffonians due to the fear that another conflict may occur, the dragons have already lost so much in the war.

Ember has already secretly pissed off many of her underground rivals, by establishing long-lasting international relationships and friendships with the Equestrians, many rumored that the young Empress lost her will to fight due to the amount of time she spent with those weak-minded ponies.

Wow, those anti-pony dragons are so really going to get it.

The aggressiveness grew significant when a certain incident occurred; A Saddle Arabian Tornado suddenly trespassed the borders of the Leviathan Gulf heading straight towards the inland Dragonland. Dragon Air Defense Force immediately send two Su-27 to intercept. When they got to the Saddle Arabian Tornado, they signaled the reconnaissance aircraft to leave; and of course, instead of leaving, the Saddle Arabian aircraft decided to ignore the Dragons. As the dragons prepared for a warning shot, they suddenly found themselves on a collision course with the Tornado, which banked towards them without any warning signs. The result was; a midair collision occurred with a single Su-27 splashed, the Dragon pilot bailed out in time, however, the Tornado pilot was killed.

So that "Tornado" plane/jet is like the Tornado GR.1, GR.4, Tornado F.2, F.3, Tornado IDS, and Tornado ECR?

P.S. That Tornado pilot is either deaf blind, or a pure dumbass. That not only ignores to leave, but also ran his own freaking plane to the other one, in a suicidal kamikaze!?

I smell pure bull and sus going on here?

The Saddle Arabian ambassador came to a meeting with Ember demanding a reason for the dragons 'purposely' ramming down their Tornado when it was on its 'normal' training routine. Ember, instead of showing her 'aggressive dragon' side as the rest of her subjects wanted, Ember backed off with peace treaties and further investigations. The Saddle Arabians demanded a large amount of economic compensation and other bullshits. Well, of course, some dragons found out the real deal due to some political shifting. And yeah, they're not happy.

I'm guessing that ambassador is sprouting BS.

[OP Omni God-Emperor Doom]

That's when the Empress's underground rivals decided it was their time. Rumors were spread all over Dragonland about Ember secretly contacting Saddle Arabian high military officials about exchanging highly classified intelligence for some 'advanced' military gear or some shit.

He was later sent to Saddle Arabia after the Griffonian War; he returned 2 weeks ago and heard about the rumor. The man was in full try-hard mode diving into the core of the rival party, digging up some info, and was able to get out alive.

I'm actually quite happy that garble is a pure good guy that isn't fooled these evil false rumors. And not a cliche traitor/bad guy from old stories from the old seasons.

Ember was then escorted toward her safe house. However, on her way out, she was shot by a rival sniper. With this set of fire, tons of rival members stormed her palace and took over complete military control; including the nuclear-capable ICBM silos. The high ranks that were supportive of Ember were executed publicly, and the rival party named themselves 'Jormungandr'. A week later, the entire Dragonland was taken over by the Jormungandrs, with its leader Styx Grumbler being the dictator leader.

As for Ember? She survived, however, at the cost of an eye. Garble contacted the Equestrian Intelligence Agency secretly to accept Ember into Equestria undercover. She's traumatized though; both due to the betrayal of her subjects and the fact that she just whizzed by with the reaper itself.

Damn, she is permanently scarred by those a-holes!?

Spike is definitely going to burn them all for this.

P.S. How the heck does Equestria, or even the dragons discover nuclear. And know how to weaponize it to ICBM's in the first place? Is there a pony Albert Einstein exist?

Dragonland, no, that time it was called 'Slangerjord', and now owns the entire Dragon military. Equestrians and their allies were terrified, not only the fact that the Dragons had 3 nuclear-powered submarines capable of firing twelfth ICBMs all armed with nuclear warheads, but also that their ICBM silos are ranged to wipe out Manehattan and several other major cities.

So basically, the Dragons ( Literal flying lizards, no offense. ) own Submarines ( seafaring ships that go underwater. )!?

Very weird and quite ironic?

I highly bet one of those subs is inspired by the Super-Submarine; The Alicorn. And the other two are the twin subs; Hrimfaxi and Scinfaxi from AC5?

However, direct military actions were forbidden by Princess Luster to prevent another war; she looked to the other side of honor; the mercenaries.

I have never thought that Luster of all ponies will hire the likes of mercenaries?

The Hikiro Mercenary Corp; which was not world-wide known yet. This mercenary corp is a Kirinese military organization, they have the best Mercenary squadron, will at least until they disassembled a few moons later. Hikiro's Peril Squadron was the ones paid to wipe out the Jormungandrs; say, they did make the job easier; although did lose two pilots at the end of the showdown, did save the world though, blew up several silos and sunk their nuclear subs. Ember returned to her throne after this entire mess was completely over, she executed all of the surviving members of Jormungandrs and their families. That set off the alarm for her hidden rivals; Dragonland was finally at their peace.

So this mercenary Corp, your original OC's of yours? Wonder who was those two lost pilots?

And does our Morgan friend cross paths with them eventually?

Welp, at least Ember punished the ones responsible for all this ridiculousness.

So, that was another war that our sentient superplane/jet missed out of?

And dang it, it seems like our Morgan friend can't face those submarines by now. I was kind of hoping to see a reenactment fight of the Alicorn or the twin subs.

[OP Omni God-Emperor Doom]

For another 10 moons, Equis is seemingly at peace once again. There are Surprisingly hardly any huge conflicts around, however, the borders were planted. There's no turning back.

Question, are the "moons" months or years? Cuz if it's years. Then, where the exact heck are Twilight or her friends!!!???

It's been over literal freaking decades!

This is gone on way too long, they all should have been found by now?

And what/where the heck is Celestia, Luna, the Pillars, or even Discord!? Why the heck aren't they doing anything against these many wars with untold INNOCENT deaths and destruction?

Saddle Arabia and Zebrica lately, are having unusual military actions again, much to the Equestrians' concern; the two conflicts decades ago must've planted PTSDs throughout the continent; Equestria and its allies all had their focused on the two countries which were now considered rogue nations. The Zerbican and Saddle Arabian ambassadors moved out of Equestria two weeks before it happened. They cut off economic trade with Equestria and their allies, now completely into aggressors. They left off the ultimatum for Equestria, their reason being: Equestrians interfere with their national political ideas and religions, and had too much of their military forces dispatched to their country. The part that pissed them off the most, well, massive casualties in the past decades done by the Equestrians on their 'Peace' expedition to clear out 'Terrorists' threats in the Saddle Arabian territory.

Okay, I can understand the Saddle Arabians. But what and why are the zebras being aggressive here too? You didn't exactly mention the zebras being involved in the previous wars in the first place!? What the hell is their deal?

I bet Zecora will be upset with what her kind is doing too.

Their attack on the Dragon Fleet in the Leviathan Gulf triggered both sides; at least 3 'Gemstone' Class destroyers were sunk, only 1/4 of the crew made it back alive, and their flagship, DNS 'Ember' class heavy cruiser was severely damaged, it survived though, it's now under repair in a classified location. The Dragons weren't expecting such a fierce attack done by the Saddle Arabians, however, it was later known that the Griffons were secretly shipping weapons in support of their war partners. Did I mention the Griffonian politicians were easy to bear a grudge?

There it is.

Yet another war.

The Griffins are literal Grade A dicks in here.

Equestrians and her allies; The Kingdom of Hippogriffia, Federation of Yakakstan, Republic of Kirina, Changeling Kingdom, and Chrystal Empire; though not being a big fan of making this even worst, tried their last afford to peacefully negotiate with the rogues. It failed, of course, their negotiator was shot down the moment he entered Saddle Arabian airspace.

Wait, I actually thought the Griffins themselves lost all of their military firepower in their own war?

Because it's technically three against six now?

( Griffins, Saddle Arabia, Zebras V.S. Ponykind/Equestria, Crystal Empire, Good Changelings, Yaks, Hippogriffs/Seaponies, and Kirins. )

Well, I was caught in one of their operations, however, due to intelligence failures, Seadroy's squadron suffered great losses. Then I showed up. You get the rest of the story.

And this is where the main story begins?

Kind of sucks that you were here a little late. By missing out the previous two wars against the Griffins, and the Evil Dragon Party. But whatever.

Many Ace Combat references characters will began to show up one by one… so, shall we start with our favorite. “Buddy” of Pixy?

(PS: They’re not actually the characters, more like their counterparts)
