The fall of friendship
Prologue
Five years…five long bloody years…
The land of equestrian had long lived in harmony since discord was put in his stone prison for a second time and for a few months the ponies lived in happiness….then the rebellion began. The idea spread like wildfire "why do we need the royals? I bet we can raise the sun and moon our selves. They never did anything we couldn't do our selves!" Across the land ponies of all towns began rioting and attacking anything resembling authority till finally the rebellion reached canterlot. The princess's were over whelmed. With no love or friendship to fuel their magic they fell to the masses. Their bodies were paraded through the city for the cheering crowds. Their palace raided and destroyed. Their family murdered before their own eyes. Still with the smallest breath of life inside them, they were hung up at the city gates as a sign to all that the reign of tyranny was over and an age of democracy had begun.
Ponies across the land rejoiced and partied for the future. It only took one wrong move to shatter this peace. The unicorns, believing themselves the leadership this land needed migrated on mass to canterlot and began stating their rule.
At first the earth and Pegasus ponies disliked the idea of being ruled again but made no compliant. The Pegasus's made weather and the earth ponies made food. The unicorns did nothing, sometimes even forgetting to lower the sun or raise the moon and still demanded more and more. The Pegasus's finally refused to do anymore work until their demands were meet. The unicorns considered their options and as one they formed a beam of pure magic and brought cloudsdale crashing to earth. The Pegasus's, lost and outraged at destruction of their home, fled north across the mountains to the northern griffin tribes. The unicorns braded all Pegasus's traitors to the kingdom and banished any who dared to remain behind. The earth ponies feeling misused by the unicorns as well went east in search of a new home.
The earth ponies founded terra in the east, building vast cities on the fertile planes of their new home, and began forming armies to protect its borders. The Pegasus's united with the griffins, forming the winged mammals democracy or WMD and began building a mega-structure simply known as titan. The unicorns took these "acts of treason" as a declaration for war and began to mine the metal called magninite, the only metal to react to magic, naming themselves The Royals.
Ponyville, now known as dereggnash or city of three in dragon, was agreed to become a natural city with all three nations holding a claim. Tensions grew still with the unicorns stating that since the other ponies abandoned equestria, all of the city should come under unicorn rule. The earth ponies, stubborn as they are, retorted this by saying that ponyville was started by earth ponies and by right belonged to them. The Pegasus's argued that since the earth ponies stood by and did nothing while the unicorns destroyed cloudsdale, they demanded half of each nations land for payment. With these new problems arising every nation move troops and supplies closer to the city, and prepared for war. The unicorns made the first move. On the grounds that the other nations sectors were consuming too much power they launched a raid on the central power station, destroying much of it. Left without power the city fell into chaos. Soldiers fighting in the streets, Pegasus's controlling the sky and cults rising up from their dark holes to wage their claim on the world.
The battle will finish…and when it does…only one nation will rise from the ashes
A/N:
Hi all. This will be my first story I published so feel free to give my pointers or ideas. Also this story will mainly feature the mane 6 but I will need other ponies to fill the gaps so if you want to give me a description of you pony (ie mane, talents, colour, roles, what strengths and weaknesses are, etc) in a review so others can get ideas or if you want to keep yours super secret PM me. Will try and balance this with school work and life so don't expect me to update every day. Hope to feedback
