There is a rebellion coming. With the Royal Guard defending the princesses from an attack that can come at any day, Celestia uses her last resort, the Ponies of War military unit led by the synthetic alicorn, Crystal Shine. After an initial attack that nearly wipes them out, some new ponies must be recruited. This is the story of how each of them changed, this is the story of how they went from strangers to brothers and sisters, this is how they saved Equestria.
