Description For centuries, the ponies of Equestria have disputed and fought. After an argument over whether eggs are best done sunny-side-up or over-easy turned hostile, the first pony war between the Unicorns, the Pegasi and the Earth Ponies began. Although talks on all sides were made, their leaders: Princess Platinum, Commander Hurricane and Chancellor Puddinghead left to find new lands. During this time, the Apples seized the initiative against their unicorn neighbours, the Oranges, and crossed the Delamare during the night (or at least what could be considered night during an eternal winter). Unfortunately, half way through the crossing, Castle Orange discovered them and began a cannon assault! Will the apples make it?

Apple Bloom doesn't seem to be taking this siege very seriously.

Haha, no she's buckin' the ice block at the front so that the boat can cross the channel (although that is definitely a good idea for a future piece >_>)

Apple Fritter's there without Meadow Song?  We haven't seen them apart since early season one.

Well, I wanted to keep it strictly apple family in this picture. I actually never noticed them always together (guess I'm not as big of a fan as I thought )

This is so cool! But, aren't the Apples and Oranges related?

CheshireTwilight In reply to stardust-4ever [2013-07-27 02:43:00 +0000 UTC]

Well, you know what they say "The best way to destroy an enemy is to make them your friend" and "Family is really the first friends you ever meet". I figured that after the war, opposites attracted, producing the families they have today, with the oranges still being "civilized" and the apples still "hard working".
