All cities have severe events of nonsense, and Canterlot is certainly no exception. On the wrong side of the tracks, everything appears to be more incoherent, the grimy buildings adding to the effect. Complete nonsense, punctuated occasionally with a sound of screwing around, is common in these areas.

Shining like a rusted beacon in this desolate land is a small and rather unkempt two-story building. doors making horrid grinding sounds when opened, bar proper smelling in great need of a wash, and influx of seriousness. Yet, oddly enough, this rundown building seems... inviting.…

It's dawn in Ponyville, and inside the theater a figure is already stirring, bustling about in preparation for a meeting to come. Coffee was brewing, pencils and paper were laid out, a map of the area procured, front doors unlocked, her housemate begrudgingly roused and sent to find breakfast, and...well, that was it, she supposed. She wasn't really sure what was needed to find somepony. Guess she'll just have to wing it from here.

Sighing, she takes a seat at one of the tables in the theater lobby, a steaming mug of coffee between her hooves. The others should be showing up any minute now.

>Yes, another meeting in the theater. Do they actually even show movies in this thing?

#Ask/invite #Canon: The Peacebringers of Equestria #Adventure #Violence #Ponies

Welcome to Equestria. A land full of lush woodlands and cold tundra. A smile beams on the face of every stallion, mare, and foal you could lay your eyes on, whether in Canterlot or the Crystal Empire. However, not all things stay the same. And the peaceful land of Equestria is no exception. Strange, evil things have begun happening all over Equestria. An unfortunate accident in Ponyville. An unexpected fire in Los Pegasus. They all seemed like minor occurances. When the areas were investigated a few weeks later, it looked as if it had just been an accident. But looks can be deciveing.
The moonlight seemed to fall into a small clearing deep in the woods. The stars were out, seeming to reveal a pathway with their bright, glittering lights. The pathway was only open to six, six whose talents could save Equestria from destruction.
A delicate white alicorn slowly trotted into the clearing. She glanced around expectantly, and jumped in surprise as a nearby fire sprang to life. She sqiunted at the flame curiously. The fire was, strangely, a shade of purple. She settled down in the clearing and continued to look around.
"Interesting...Luna said three others would be here. Where are they?"

Space Station Orion. The world's last - and only defence against the interdimensional rift threat. What are they? Where did they come from? Nopony is quite sure, but in the meantime they know they must be stopped. And from this is where Space Station Orion was formed, the Orion Team based upon this orbital platform. They must watch around the clock to prevent incidents with these rifts - a job of great prestige but great danger. What will you do? Will you join the Orion Team, with all the danger it may present? Will you, maybe, become one of the science staff, working with the most advanced technologies off of this planet? Or, maybe, have you just decided to forgo the norms and live in space? The possibilities are endless.

”You ask me, ‘Is wealth what you desire?’ I say yea. I desire wealth of the body and mind. Of the soul and spirit. Materials come and go, even gold rots, but those who live with little and stay content, those are the truly wealthy.” –Earnest Night, philosopher

In the months since the Trail of Ashes, the migration of the three tribes to their new home, the ponies of the newly found state of Equestria would face many trials. Foreigners would challenge them, creatures would harass them, and even amongst themselves they quarreled. But through it all a better future would be forged.

Today, five months after the Trail, the Equestrians have solidified their position of power. With the determination of the earth ponies, the ferocity of the pegasi, and the acuity of the unicorns (and liberal use of magic), a city was built. From simple palisades, walls were erected. From meager huts, buildings were built. From regulars, a militia was formed. Farms dot the landscape around Equestria. Mines send valuable minerals back home. Forges and mills run night and day. Ponies laugh, love, and tell stories. Equestria grows in power and shows no sign of stopping…

Today, five months after the Trail, five foreign ponies and one diamond dog await an audience with the Tribe Ring. They occupy a special room of the Ring Hall, a room only a few dozen ponies petitioning for audience get to see each day. But today it’s reserved for them alone, for they are Pioneer Initiates, those chosen to represent Equestria and personal envoys of the Ring.

The room itself, although special in purpose, is quite dull. There are no paintings on the walls, or carpets adorning the floor. Instead, all that is offered is the stale grey of stone. That and…

"When I found nothing around me, I looked a different way--and there it was."

~Brethren Hunter Cassius--"On Glacier"

In the dead of the Shadowfall's endless night, the wind howls.

Far beyond such civilized places as Darkest Fall, a vast and dreary field of ice and snow stretches on for further than mortal eyes can tell. Here the blizzards are hourly and the winds eternal, and the air so cold it would freeze a fire solid. This blasted waste is, perhaps uniquely, perfectly flat: the city, for whatever reason, did not build itself here.

Within this hellish expanse, the only sign of civilization is a torn mass of steel, wood, and leather: train cars, ten in total, fractured and battered and strewn about. They are irreparably damaged—but it is within these battered colossi that the only life for miles around slowly stirs to life...

Time. An odd thing, time. Nothing more than an idea, invented by sentient minds, long ago. They share the same beginning. And they will share the same end. For time is only the space between birth, and death.

Before life, there was only the void. Blackness. Emptiness. Meaninglessness. Without label. Without time. Without purpose. And without judgement.

During life, the world suddenly became filled with abstractions: depth and shallowness, beauty and ugliness, joy and sorrow, and last of all, the distinction between purpose, and pointlessness. The arrogance of sentience, to think they could dictate the true nature of things.

When life passes, as all life will, time will again cease to be. The efforts of thousands of years of 'progress' at the hands of thought will be erased. The distinctions, the meanings, the beauty and joy, ugliness and sorrow, gone. And with them, so too does the passing of time accompany the legacy of sentience into obscure pointlessness. As life dies, time dies with it.

The void waits patiently for all of thought's creations. One moment at a time.

By now, the ears of everyone in the 606th Infantry Division were deaf to the sounds of artillery, the barking of gunfire, and the screams of the wounded and dying. Expressions and faces were as stone, as the soldiers in red and black marched, advanced, killed and died in droves. This infernal hill they fought on now, in the drizzling rain and choking smoke had seen thirty-two thousand souls perish on its surface - all for the artillery battery on its peak. The war in space and in the air continued to wage - this hill would be bought by the lives of the infantry on the ground, and them alone. And it would be bought with their lives.

And they were nearly there.

"Go, go GO GO!" his CO cried over the incoming fire from above, his great-coat and hat almost undiscernible beneath the grime and mud, his authority only recognized by sheer confidence and strength of leadership. The three of them rushed towards the burning tank some twenty yards ahead, clambering desperately over debris and the bodies of the fallen to reach the safety of cover the destroyed tank would offer them. Growling savagely, the officer fired his blaster at the spitting machine gun nest as he sprinted, while the rest of North Star's squad scurried after, Pvt. Hughes carrying the flag like a protective and righteous talisman, the rest shouting and firing as they charged.

Of the twenty two that advanced, seven made it to the tank. The flag-bearer himself had been a maddeningly two seconds from safety before a laser removed his head from his shoulders, his lifeless husk pitching forw…

The ESP terminal was in turmoil. Ponies and creatures wearing matching uniforms scuttled too and from, announcements from the loudspeakers occasionally overrode the calamity in the hallways, further ushering the chaos into even more chaos.

But the three cadets, and the veteran Electra, move with purpose towards the hangar bay, a single, uniform straight line, amidst the sea of confusion.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sxIFl4ZdFE

A nervous energy was in the air, as the newly sanctioned team began to ascend the flight of stairs towards the hangar bay. A new ship, and a new ally, and some firearms would be waiting for them upon arrival.

Not long at all, great, thick, square windows began appearing at regular intervals on the groups right, to reveal the ship staging area, with all the various ships and crews revealed. Carts of proton torpedoes being wheeled around, pilots walking in unison towards their fighter craft, service droids and repairmen making noise and light with their hydro-spanners and jargon engineer-speak. And beyond all of this, the open sky, which was intermittently obscured as a freshly fitted space-craft took flight, banking up and out towards the stars. In a few minutes time, the cadets would be among them.

Arriving at the doorway and stepping through it, the group's collective noses were greeted with the ubiquitous smells of a mechanic's garage; but perhaps more, the sight of their ship and comrade lay just before them...

A day that had began with questions ended in a culmination of pain and tears. As they had set upon the road towards the outlying rock farm in search of comfort and safety, growing tension within the group hit a boiling point over the matter of a mare in a cornflower blue dress. As they encountered their first infected victim a wedge was driven between the travelers as they quarreled over how best to handle the situation. It ended in death and despair and drove a pony to brink of insanity as his competency came under question. A trip the pony would not return from, never to be seen again.

Chased ever onward by a splintered group of the horde that had consumed Ponyville, a wagon was set free, and another hopelessly overrun. Both parties would soon find themselves in a checkpoint designed to keep the infection from spreading. High walls that both protected it's occupants and imprisoned them to the whims of an old warrior doing his best to handle a disease he did not understand.

Meanwhile in the Everfree, more death. But of a different nature. Two desperate bands of survivors clash over dwindling supplies. Ending in bloodshed was not enough, as cruel tutelage gave way to the passing of a fillyhood. Youthful innocence lost to necessity and hardship in the face of greed and fear. More corpses and destruction in their wake, they press ever southward.

The day ended in a decree. An example of what awaited any who crossed the Colonel. A medical officers seeking to protect his friend, dragged out into the open and held up before all. Twenty lashes punctuated the destruction of everything he owned and loved. Alone, demoted, whipped, pennyless and homeless. What could possibly …

REQUIRED LISTENING [youtu.be]

It's a long trip for the four ponies - and one human - down in the sewers. Not physically long, mind you, but the mental weight of having lost two ponies - two friends - in the first engagement weighed down heavily on everyone there. Some moreso than others, but the best the group could do was hold tight and hope Terra and Nimble were captured, not killed. The smell of death and decay around them wasn't one to be taken lightly, either, and it did nothing to help the group's morale. After what seems like a forever of walking, Ares speaks up.

"Alright, if I recall correctly, this right here leads up to an out-of-the way alleyway." he says, trotting up to a wooden ladder - eroded, but still stable. "Is that right, Styx?" he asks, the aforementioned giving a curt nod. "Well, let's not waste another moment!" he bellows, drawing his sword and beginning to ascend. He punches the cap open and swiftly ascends to the surface, looking about for anyone or anything. "It's clear." he states, just loud enough for the ones down in the sewer to hear.

Its is a gray and foggy day in New Canterlot. The fog has rolled in between the levels creating small pockets of light. Its one of those days that makes you question the existence of the outside world.
Two bombings, one a library and the other a picnic have taken place, the bomber is still at large.
A riot broke out on the Thirteenth, the leader was killed. Or was he?

Today is a new day. The thirteenth is still in chaos and the bomber is still at large. What will the new day and it's fog bring to the great city Canterlot?

It's total war on these streets. So much fighting, so much chaos, I'm sure only Discord would like it. That or any sadistic pony who loves to inflict pain on others. Glad I moved out, glad I did. It was a total disaster. I am never going back, indeed I won't!
