It was possible, though it turned out to be less necessary than she might've expected. She gave the remedial dive that weekend, and two of her students had their ponies ask her for dive-computers of their own. That pattern repeated itself in the following weeks. And some of her more frequent customers already had Equestrian devices of their own that would serve the same purpose, even if they weren't exactly designed as dive-computers.Vera didn't just salvage the rest of the season, but things became even…-

Any second now, the shock would wear off and Phil would be back in the United States. He'd wake up, obviously extremely hungover from whatever bender had resulted in him hallucinating a change in species and a conquered world to liberate.But if Equestria was a dream, he didn't wake from it that afternoon, or see any other sign that its equine citizens were not truly suffering. It took until early evening for the horses to organize everything, leaving Phil free to get to know their rebellion a little more.…-

Lane landed with a splash, sending warm water cascading away from him in all directions. He sank, and for a few terrible seconds it felt like he was going to keep sinking. Even if it was too dark to see, he could feel Mew hovering over him, and he kicked towards her. He broke the water a second later, coughing and spluttering. “Are… you… trying to drown me?” A soft amber glow sprung up just beside the water, suddenly illuminating the room. He swam towards the edge, getting a good look around. It…-

I clutched my pack close as I wandered out of the throne room, taking one last glance at the imperious Empress on her throne before turning around the corner and out of sight.She invited me here. She accepted the interview. But now Starlight was rejecting me, tossing me back into the city with what was either callous advice or thinly veiled threats. I couldn’t tell which, but either way didn’t bode well for the success of my project.I didn’t make it very far, maybe a few steps, before Radiant Dawn…-

Ocellus watched nervously out the sides of the ship's windows. They'd been sitting on the landing pad for over an hour, watching as the strange aliens paced around them. Of course, in her last few years at Twilight's School of Friendship and Naval Academy, Ocellus had seen her fair share of other races. Most common were the human beings who had made first contact with Equestria shortly after the failed changeling invasion. But they had images transmitted of other species. Yet none resembled these…-

Unwilling RecruitKatie caught her on her way back to the room. Jackie had come back in through the laundry, so she hadn’t been completely naked—though the robe she’d stolen didn’t fit, and smelled like it hadn’t yet been washed.Katie was already awake when she came into their shared dorm, half dressed with the straightener warming in front of the mirror before her. Couldn’t you sleep in like a normal teenager?Still, it could’ve been worse. Nobody else in the girls’ dorm had noticed…-

“We’re on the right track,” Marie announced, for perhaps the third time in an hour. Of course there was no evidence that they were going the right direction. Nothing suggested they were going wrong either. “Sure we are,” Helen said. “An’ maybe we’re not just wastin’ our time here tryin’ to find something that doesn’t exist. It’s just marketing, Marie. I don’t know how to tell you. But if there was really somethin’ goin’ on, the whole bloody army would be here. There ain’t no…-

The death of Lachesis did not mean the battle was over before it started. As Evoli had expected, most of the drones that made up this army did not belong to the freakish “queen of the future.” They were, rather, the army of the great queens. Plus, Lachesis had controllers, and males, and both of these could stop the drones from going feral. The single blow did nothing but enrage her enemy.But for once, Evoli herself did not leave the field. She needed to be here, for the same reason she needed to make…-

There was something subtly unnerving about seeing Ponyville so completely deserted that there weren’t even ponies to stare at her as she walked past outside their windows. She knew they must still be there, cowering somewhere. Ponyville’s population had learned well by now to lay low whenever there was danger and wait for the princess and her friends to make the town safe again.Unfortunately for them, the princess and her friends were exactly the danger right now. Twilight didn’t feel particularly…-

Iron Feather wasn't sure how to feel about his rescuer. On one hoof, she was certainly the reason he hadn't died. His memory of the night before was not clear, but the injuries on his back were obvious enough about the consequences. A break that severe was enough to bleed him to death. Leaving him exposed to the elements—and capture—with such a serious wound was a death sentence.But at the same time, he could see when a pony wasn't all there. He didn't have to guess, it was obvious that Kirin worked…-
