(Mainly inspired by the ongoing Russian-Ukraine Conflict, minor inspiration from the film 'Fury'.)

TO YOUR CAUTION!!! THIS STORY IS BASED ON AN ALTERNATIVE TIMELINE!!! ALTERNATIVE TIMELINE!!! ALTERNATIVE TIMELINE I've said it enough times just in case a certain group of people gets triggered... I'm not a political type of guy!I wrote this without any political intentions! I just wanted to write a modernized tank battle with griffons and dragons! PLEASE don't open fire on me! Thank you for understanding!!!

It had been more than 2 moons since the beginning of the war, roles switched; the once-invading Draconians were now halted and slowly driven back to the borders. However, more aggressive retaliations were coming from both sides. But the overall war progress is benefitting the Equestrians.

Gerald 'Blitz' Thunderhooves, commander of his Leopard 2A6 '331' Blitzwing MBT, was separated from the rest of his battalion during an all-out retaliation against the Draconian 106th Armor Battalion. Gerald found himself within the enemy EM interference zone to add more disadvantage to his crew. Now he's completely strained with little hope of getting reinforcements.

Gerald and his crew would have to crawl back to friendly forces while being hunted by groups of hostile armors. Throughout their perilous quest, the crew of 'Blitzwing' discovers the true intention of the Draconians' so-called 'retreat'.

They only have a limited amount of time to get this valuable information back to their side to prevent a possible heavy loss of friendly forces.

Have you heard the tales of Queen Twilight Sparkle, the last student of Celestia? How many evils did she and her friends vanquish? Have you heard of her great deeds? Have you heard of the student before her, Sunset Shimmer? Who had once lost her way, before finding the light in another world? What if they weren't the only ones? Imagine how many personal students Princess Celestia had taken over these past thousand years?

Long ago in the distant past, before the advent of Twilight, before Sunset, before any other student, there was one. The one who started it all. The very first in a long, long, line of students, personally taken in by Celestia. This is the tale of Frosty Hearth.

Equestria, once a peaceful and magical land has changed. Nothing will be as it once was.

About a month ago If you told me that I would be on a crashing plane heading into the ocean I would have thought you were crazy. But here I was in that exact situation just sitting there thinking about what got me into this so let's go over how I got here...

He came here with a single order. Could he achieve it?

What would completing it accomplish?

All he knows is that, failing is not an option, and the present will no longer be the same.

This story is a sequel to The Great Retreat

After the retreat back to the border months prior, Trimmel spent months meticulously creating his plan for a second invasion of Equestria. With the approval of Queen Chrysalis, the Changelings once against advance into Equestria.

The Heer will not fail this time, this time, they will be victorious; this time, they will break the ponies.

Sombra had returned, but this time he was choosing his plans carefully. He knew about those pesky seven. He knew there would definitely be some trouble if he didn’t enact everything perfectly. He raised an army of warriors fiercer than any pony ever could be and used them to enslave even more creatures one by one slowly.

Then he turned his sights on the Empire, his Empire. And his future favorite prisoner Princess Cadance. King Sombra did not expect the man-turned horror his dark magic would attract.

Content Warnings: Violence because of depicted war. Heavy gore. Suicide / Self Harm because self harm does occur in the story, not as focus of depression, and no suicide is present in the story though it is discussed.

Two ponies, finding themselves inside a dark tunnel, stop moving to heal one from an injury.

[Note]
Suicide / Self Harm tag is not here due to an emotional state of mind. If you feel triggered by this tag, or reading the parts that involved such, please talk to someone about it.

Narcotics tag is here, but the story does not revolve around it, nor does it have significant impact.

A continuation of Reitanna Seishin’s series the Muffins saga, one of my favorite pieces of media. The bakers were captured once again, and Celestia uses a forbidden spell. Luna must make the right decisions to protect her subjects, Has the damage been done no matter what spell is cast?
