During the siege of Canterlot, things look pretty bleak for Princess Luna. Sitting in her tower, she awaits for the end of everything she knows and cares for. But the light of the Moon shall not be merely extinguished. If you're going to go out, go out with a bang!

Now with a fanmade sequel/continuation by timeblitz: The Era of Equis

Pre-read by the amazing Auramane!

Edited by my friend, SubShock, and this one shot is inspired by his story, Shattered Harmony.

Cover art was found on e621 and used shamelessly.

Twilight Sparkle, the protégé of Princess Celestia, visits Canterlot. She does not go to visit her mentor however, but rather to entertain herself with her secret obsession. Classical music.

A certain mare in the orchestra catches her eye, and has held it for a very long time. Today, she decides to meet her. For better or for worse.

A huge thank you to Auramane for the initial pre-reading, editing, pre-reading the improved chapter version, and still being an awesome person!

Most editing and help with dialogue was done by SubShock. Thanks pal!

This will be a place for me to post my short stories that are too short to exist on their own, as well as poems that I create. The subjects can be random and will probably vary greatly. Most of these will relate to MLP in one way or another.

If I write about a certain character here often enough, I will add their tag. Until then, the "Other" tag will have to do.

Horrible news befalls a family that leaves them heartbroken. How can a young filly understand this news and the meaning of death?

I kind of wrote this as a tribute of sorts to those who have or are currently serving in the armed forces. To these veterans and active-duty service members, I salute you and thank you for your sacrifices and service!

Also, I want to give a huge thank you to Camlio for proofreading this story!

Additional character tag: Aura
For those who don't know, Aura is a background pony filly. I decided to use her as the main character, as I was searching for a lesser known background pony to base a short story on.

A young Royal Guard faces certain death, and he prepares himself for the end. Not even a glimmer of hope shines for him, but will an unexpected sympathizer be able to lend a talon in his darkest hour?

**Placed on hiatus for the foreseeable future. The story will be finished, but my writing effort has been redirected back to my main story. It is very likely that this story shall remain on hiatus until my other one is complete.**

The third world war engulfed the world in a nuclear holocaust. Very few survived, and those that did only cared about their survival. The remains of the U.S. military resurfaced and restored order to the American wasteland. While rebuilding their shattered world, the ponies appeared from their destroyed dimension. The two races met and formed a peaceful relationship based on cooperation. Peace and prosperity came as the two species worked together to restore order and purify the planet.

However, not all ponies viewed the humans as valuable partners. Celestia saw them as an evil, warmongering blight on this world. They had destroyed their world and almost themselves. She reasoned that true peace was impossible, as the human lust for war could not be suppressed forever. Setting her plans into motion, she declared war and launched a human genocide. The vastly outnumbered American people and military made what may be mankind’s final stand.

Have the great warmongers finally met their match?

*Sex tag added for adult situations, remarks, humor, etc.*

Princess Luna has returned from her 1000 year banishment on the moon. Now she must learn to cope with the changes that have occurred during her absence, while dealing with the guilt and regret from her past. In an effort to redeem herself, she tries to right her past wrongs and show the ponies of Equestria that she is no longer the evil nightmare that scared them for centuries.

During her period of repentence she rediscovers one particular group of ponies that was hit the hardest when she turned into Nightmare Moon, the 13th Infantry Division. They had pledged their loyalty to her and were one of the most elite fighting units in the entire Equestrian army. Now, their only claim to fame is their past and being the biggest joke in the military. A place for misfits and undesirable soldiers, as well as punished officers. Can the newly returned princess redeem herself and the division that devoted itself to her? Or will Princess Luna fall back into the open arms of sorrow and despair?

Pre-reading and editing from the prologue through chapter 4 were done by Arkenai

Pre-reading from chapter 5 onwards done by Auramane

A huge thanks to both of you!
