Years have passed for the Mane Six, and Applejack, Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Fluttershy each have children of their own.
But when a fearsome ruler takes over Equestria, a twisted form of entertainment is created:
The Equestria Games.
Eight Blank Flanks from each part of Equestria are chosen as tributes to fight to the death in a controlled arena.
Ender Shadow, Lost Sanity, Blue Wing, Spectra, Flitters, Shining Fang, Violet Strike, and Apple Fall are chosen as tributes for the games. They swear to be allies, friends to the end.

The Equestria Games.

Y/n wakes up in the deadly Squid Game, surrounded by strangers and fighting to survive. What she doesn't know is that the mysterious Frontman is watching her every move through the cameras- and she's caught his attention.
