Description "Please." the xenos looked up with hopeful violet eyes.
Behind that hope was fear, however. The being that stood before it was no longer the faithful student she loved, but she was down there, somewhere.

She had to be.

"Will you accept my friendship?"

Twilight Sparkle grimaced as a thousand memories came rushing to the forefront of her mind. Memories of the old world. Of Equestria. Of her friends and the love they shared.
For years she'd been haunted by the inability to complete the phrase. She'd forgotten what friendship was. Now she remembered.

She finally opened her eyes and Celestia visibly shuddered under her glare.

"I'm sorry, Princess."

The bolt pistol clicked.

"But friendship is magic..."

--

Am I a heretic for drawing pony/40k? Maybe, but trust me when I say that it's a lot of fun-*BLAM!* This is also fueled heavily by the rule of cool. Should a xenos even be able to touch lovely commissar threads? Probably not, but I think she looks pretty darn awesome in them! If the rule of cool doesn't satisfy you, however, then my condolences. :[

Inspired by this fan-fic .

Twilight's considered a sanctioned psyker by the Imperium, so unicorn "magic" isn't what she's referring to. Oh, and this is probably best viewed on a monitor. It's a tad dark. GRIM-dark! >:]

Oh snap - that's the number three slot in the drawfriend! Thank you, guys! www.equestriadaily.com/2014/08…

Had to get this for my desktop. epic picture

"If somepony holds a gun to your head and wants you dead, pray that they are a bad pony. A bad pony will want to see you suffer, will drag out the torment to agonizing lengths, maybe giving you time to escape your predicament.

A good pony will just pull the trigger..."

Making a combination of something as violently wicked such as Warhammer and something as innocently reasonable like MLP into an art piece revolving around Twilight killing Celestia.

Though, I'm willing to bet Tia used a bubble shield to rebound the bullet to Twilight. It was a sad day for the Princess of the Sun.

As a sanctioned psyker Twilight is in trouble just for talkng to Celestia. And Celestia is hoping for to much, the Twilight she knew died long ago. And to finish her sentence" But friendship died with Equestria long ago, and the mare you once knew died with it." If thats not what the fic says never mind. This comes from knowing the game. If Twilight once to put her old life behind forever she has to pull the trigger( the most she can give Celestia is a quick death.)

There needs to be a lot more of this.  Looking at the frontpage MLP special today, I was just thinking how well a 40K crossover would work.  
Great execution! (No pun intended)

And yet Celestia is basically a Demi-Goddess if not Goddess outright, seems more like Twilight is committing heresy. Who does she even worship? Did....did Christianity get to Equestria?

Whoa - hold up. This is based on Warhammer 40k, bud. You know - "for the emprah!" and all that jazz? It's a tabletop strategy game that has also spawned some awesome video games. Cool universe, for sure.

Fellmoon In reply to ??? [2015-01-27 06:22:44 +0000 UTC]

Perhaps I am missing something but why the hey would Twilight be shooting Celestia? Why would she be considered 'xenos' and be on the the receiving end of a bolter?

Especially since in most iterations of MLP/WH crossovers Celestia is made to be the God Empress of Ponykind.

NCMares In reply to Fellmoon [2015-01-27 13:15:28 +0000 UTC]

This one here is loosely based on the stories 'The Dark Ones' and it's sequel 'Of Xenos and War.' I don't want to spoil nothing, but in this universe Equestria is paid a visit by the Imperium of Man after enduring a great disaster. I definitely recommend The Dark Ones - I thought it was a great read.

Fellmoon In reply to NCMares [2015-01-27 15:33:30 +0000 UTC]

Can you perhaps PM/Note me some more information. That doesn't really draw me in, especially if the story has Twilight killing Celestia, which concerns me very much, so you'e going to need to offer me enough information for me to think it is worth the read.

Also don't worry, I am one of those people who spoilers don't ruin the story for me. Heck, if there is a movie I want to see but can't I often look up information and it on TV Tropes... and willingly expose myself to spoilers.
