Twilight begins to use her Alicorn powers for her own purposes, destabilizing Celestia and causing an all-out war with three parties: the Traditionalists, those who fight for Celestia and make up just over two thirds of the populus, the Liberalists, those behind Twilight Sparkle who fight for a new democracy to govern over Equestria, and the Anarchists, lead by Solar Flare, the one who began the war and the one who intends to end it with him on top, tossing Equestria into a violent hell-hole. Worryingly, the Anarchists begin taking over land and taking ponies as warriors by force. Throughout all of this, we follow the Cutie Mark Crusaders, older now and thrust into a world of violence and bloodshed. When Apple Bloom is taken for the Traditionalists by her family, Sweetie Belle is forced into the Liberalists to fight by Twilight's side, and Scootaloo is taken under Solar Flare's wing after she goes to search for Rainbow Dash in the ruined Cloudsdale, can they ever bring themselves back together?

This is an end of the world-type fic, revolving around the conflict between Solar Flare, Twilight Sparkle and Celestia as they wage unrelenting war upon each other, as well as looking the the relationship between the CMC in this difficult time.
Rated Teen/Gore for graphic violence in later chapters and language.
