Regrets

The night was restless. Many ponies that were now all hiding at High Teck's Tower looked up at their capital of Canterlot many flashes, pops and explosions can be heard as the castle began to show signs of damage from the distance. One of the towers has now fallen and a bellow of black smoke rose from the castle's court yard. A Unicorn Royal guard walked up in front of the ground and watched the site before he saw the airship. This was High Teck's last run. He thought.

"Alright Everypony listen up!" the guard yelled getting everypony's attention. "This is High Teck's final run. If the last crowd of ponies that are unloaded from that ship is not somepony you think should be on their please check again. We don't want anypony to be stuck in Canterlot right now. so please, if you notice that a Pony you may know, whether a friend, family member, neighbor, or even somepony you met yesterday please let me know and I will inform High Teck." the guard Announced as another walked up to him. He was A Pegasus.

"Commander, all units have been accounted for. No stragglers that we can tell." The Pegasus stated with a serious tone. It was obvious to the commander unicorn he wanted to break down right now. But Celestia blessed him that he chose to keep his composure.

The Commander smiled and placed his hoof on the Pegasus Shoulder. Reassuring him and to help strengthen him. "Well done Lieutenant, get back to your men and tell them to see to the civies. You know. Help calm them maybe even chat to them. It'll make the situation easier for them"

"Yes sir!" the Pegasus saluted and smiled. He turned around and rejoined his unit.

The commander watched as the airship finally landed. "For once, this is one of these days High Teck's machines did some actual good for us."

All the ponies on the airship disembarked safely many of them running to loved ones they were forced to be separated from. Others were taken to the medical tent Nurse Redheart had asked to be put up. Others just wanted to be fed and watered.

The Commander walked up and smiled at High Teck. "Good work son!"

"I just hope that's everypony. Celestia and Spacetwilight have turned the city into a warzone. Half the time I couldn't take off without worrying about a stray magical discharge hitting the ship. Other times I couldn't get in there at all." High Teck stated to the commander. "I pray Twilight and the girls can make it back. There's times I felt I had to step in to help Celestia."

The commandeered chuckled. "You're just like your father." the commander said before he looked at High Teck. "Why didn't you join the royal guard? Look at you, your buffed you'd serve the Princesses well!"

High Teck shook his head. "Forgive me old friend. But the Life of a Royal guard just isn't for me."

"But it's in your blood! You do know what bloodline you hail from, don't you?" the Commander asked urging the Techno-Pony to remember his heritage.

"Feyaden my friend, The Praetorian Royal Guard has been disbanded for five generations." High Teck stated Matter-Of-Factually.

"That is true HT, but wouldn't it be better to serve the Royal sisters as their guardian then to try and live in a huge tower all alone for the rest of your life? As a royal guard you can has as many mares as you want. And given your size, strength, and intelligence you could even lay with Celestia herself!" the commander stated not noticing how red High Teck was blushing at the last part. "Why do you insist to live in a foolish ambition?"

High Teck frowned at his friend and shook his head. "I will never give up on my dream. The Techno-Empire may be small but still respectable. All I want is for all of Equestria to see the greatness in the technological golden age I have envisioned for it. Where Pony and Technology can live hand in hand and to make Equestria an even better place!" the Stallion lectured with a hoof on his chest, over his heart.

"Oh, I'm sorry my friend. But don't you think Equestria is already a better place? There's no war. No crime. No hardships." he then heard a loud explosion coming from Canterlot. He had little time to react as a piece of the castle's wall was flying down towards him. High Teck saw it too and grabbed the Commander and pulled him away just as the piece of wall impacted right where the Commander was standing. The commander opened his eyes to see himself on a patch of grass with High Teck standing next to him. He got up and brushed himself off.

"What were you saying about no war?" High Teck asked as the commander sighed.

"You know what I mean, and... I still think you would have made a great Royal guard." the commander smiled and patted High Teck's shoulder before trotting off to check on the civilians. High Teck sighed and looked at the Airship once more.

"Perhaps it's time I proved my Point." he said as he ran up to his airship. He looked around and saw nopony coming up to him. "This must be everypony then." he smiled and nodded. He trotted back into the airship and strapped himself to the cockpit. There he sat. Listening to the explosions, and watching the flashes of light from magical attacks. He gave out a sigh and closed his eyes as he shook his head. "I should never have launched that damn rocket. I could have spared everypony's lives from being destroyed." he whispered to himself with his head back against the seat's head cushion. "And Princess Celestia, I can hear everything but only guess the terrible pain she's going through." He said before his face twisted in scowl of anger and began to curse himself "DAMN YOU HIGH TECK! You Stupid Bucking Moron!" he yelled. He didn't care if anypony outside heard him. He opened his eyes and looked at the console in front of him. The airship was low on power and needed to be refueled before it could be flown again. "What does it matter? I have no chance against her. Even If I did use this airship it's not armed with any good weapons to assist Celestia. And even if I did I'd just get in the way." the red maned stallion sat at the pilot seat. It was a one manned- err Ponied Craft. It could easily fit 50 Ponies inside it due to its massive size. But it was never designed for combat. "I need a bucking Warship! That's what I need." High Teck said as he thought. Then something hit him. "I DO have a warship; well okay it's an air cruiser. But it's got the offensive capabilities I need!"

The large Pony Stallion got up from the pilot's seat and left the cockpit. Trotting out of the airship High Teck walked into his tower home. Moving past the factory room on the first floor and into a large doubled door hanger and saw the air cruiser he referred himself to. "A deed once done cannot be undone." The Techno Pony recited to himself as he boarded the airship, strapping himself into the pilot's seat and warmed up the controls. He placed his hooves into the specially made control console. the air cruiser began to raise up with a rumble of its lateral exhausts, the bay doors opened with a loud creak allowing the air cruiser to slowly hover out of the hanger, many ponies that saw the large air cruiser either froze and gazed in disbelief of its awesome might, or they smiled and understood what it was going to be used form. Others simply went back to their business and simply weren't worried about it. The warship flew over the tower heading towards Canterlot.

Meanwhile at Canterlot Castle the battle between Princess Celestia and Spacetwilight continued on. Both mares began to understand they were too evenly matched. Spacetwilight looked on at the solar goddess. As much as she wanted her dead a small part of her wanted to spare her. No doubt the weak Part of her.

"Spacetwilight" Celestia said breaking the silence. This caught Spacetwilight's attention. "Just give up. We can help you! Twilight can help you. Your letting this darkness in your heart control you!"

"And you say I sound like a Broken Record." Spacetwilight announced with a snicker. "Just give it up; I'm only interested in one thing and one thing only!"

"PLEASE Just Listen to yourself! You're talking about genocide! Murder! The worse atrocity anypony can ever commit!" Celestia Pleaded with the Space-Mare.

Spacetwilight could only laugh at the Princesses words. She looked up to her and smirked. "I am no regular Pony, Celestia. I am a GODDESS! My Power IS Unequaled!"

Celestia scowled at her before shaking her head. "No Spacetwilight, you are not a goddess. Your just a really talented Pony that's been warped by an evil force that is making you do these terrible things." She looked at Spacetwilight, not in anger but with sadness and hope. "But your talents can be put to good use here, Spacetwilight. Don't you see, you can be so much more than a murderer and tyrant. You can help bring peace and love. You can be loved Spacetwilight. I know you're not really evil like this. I can see it in you the little Filly that wants out-"

"ENOUGH!" Spacetwilight roared as she ran towards the Princess the two collided with a loud pop yet again as glass shattered from the blast wave that was made by the two super powers colliding.

Celestia fell backwards, taken aback by her rage that was evident before. Now she seems blinded by it.

"YOU WILL BE SILENCED FOREVER!" Spacetwilight yelled as she reared back on her hind legs, her front hooves raised high before she threw herself down Celestia having little time to move as Spacetwilight's hooves impacted hard into her side, Celestia could only scream in agony as she could feel one of her ribs crack. Spacetwilight only smirked as she twisted her hoof into Celestia's now broken rib adding so much pressure another rib can be heard cracking. "Even as a goddess you are Weak Celestia. Your passion for life and love has made you soft. So easily broken." Spacetwilight said as she stopped pressing and began to run her hoof along Celestia's side admiring her beauty she retained even as she laid broken. "It's a shame Celestia. If you hadn't been so foolish you and I could be quite the item. But. I guess it was never meant to be. How sad. But because I like you so much I'm going to give you a taste of what you could have had."

Celestia's eyes widened as Spacetwilight's own face bet with her own their lips locking as Spacetwilight gave her a long deep kiss. Celestia wanted to move but the pain kept her from moving she could only lay there as Spacetwilight's cold lips locked in a deep passionate kiss. Celestia's cheeks could only turn bright red as her mind raced. Did she not make it clear she isn't lesbian? Perhaps she simply doesn't care what she told her. Spacetwilight finally pulled back and smiled

"Now, I'm afraid it's time for you to die. It's almost sad, but you know, that's how the meteorite crumbles" Spacetwilight said as though she was in true remorse for what she was about to do as she suddenly smiled and moved her tail around her side.

Spacetwilight's tail slid down under Celestia's neck before wrapping tightly around her neck. Celestia gaged as she felt the massive strength of the space-pony's tail beginning to coil itself around her neck squeezing not unlike that of a python around a rabbit. Celestia could feel Spacetwilight lifting her up from the ground she gagged and groaned in pain as her broken ribs protested against her movement. She opened her eyes and found herself in an upright standing position, she felt her legs twitch slightly as they tried desperately to find the ground. Her wings draped to the ground all the air that was leaving her lungs left her body as well as her energy. Celestia so desperately wanted to teleport to safety at least to heal her wounds with a rejuvenation spell. But as she tried to get her horn to work she felt the jab of Spacetwilight's hoof slam into her broken ribs yet again causing her to gag and cough up blood. As she breathed out more blood trailed from her nostrils.

"Now. You're not going to leave me all alone are you? I still want to play with you before I killed you!" Spacetwilight said with a mocking pout. Celestia could only cough and gag as she felt Spacetwilight's tail strangle the life out of her. It was obvious she's wanting to do this slowly so the Princess suffered horribly by her hooves. "You been a very bad girl Princess Celestia. I think I should punish you." Spacetwilight's eyes sparkled not to unlike her Faithful student would as she smiled deviously and reared herself on her hind legs, pulling her hoof back and swong her hoof, Punching Celestia in the face.

"AAAGH" was her only response as more blood escaped Celestia's mouth and nostrils some of the blood landing on Spacetwilight's muzzle. She smiled as she lapped it up with her tongue and smiled. "Oh my. Pony Princess Flavor, My favorite!" Spacetwilight pulled her hoof back and punched the Princess yet again this time in the stomach. She punched Celestia several more times, mainly in the face or in the stomach.

Celestia no longer cried as she hung there limp as a doll, her breathing down to a wheeze as her eyes rolled to the back of her head, blood flowed from her mouth and nostrils. Spacetwilight smiled at her work as her tail released the princess's neck. Celestia slipped from her tails grip and plopped onto the ground, wincing in pain from her broken ribs and the now apparent internal bleeding.

"I must say Princess Celestia, I never faced somepony that could give me a run for my bits. Sadly however, just like all the others, you too had no chance against me." Spacetwilight mocked the princess before kicking some dirt in her face causing her to cough more blood. Spacetwilight smiled and lay down next to Celestia looking at her now bloodied hoof that she stared at as if it was a badge that she proudly wore. "Oh poor poor princess Celestia. All that talk at how I will be defeated and freed from the darkness in my heart and you haven't even been able to defeat me. Its unfortunate really you and I were quite evenly matched, a lot of the times i thought you were actually going to win." Spacetwilight said before getting up and walking a couple feet away from Celestia who only wheezed in return.

"Well it's time to end our playtime Princess. But you know what they say." Spacetwilight said as she turned around as her horn began to glow brightly several electrical discharge bolts formed around her horn as it began to heat up. Spacetwilight's Crystals on her chest harness and shoulders glowed the same way. "Now, Close your eyes your Majesty, it is finally time for your long awaited never-ending sleep" Her eyes glowed as she lowered her horn and pointed it to Princess Celestia a smile crept on her face "Goodnight Princess Celestia, Now and FOREVER!"
