The Double-Edged Sword

The Double-Edged Sword was a domestic terrorist organization based out of Canterlot, Equestria. Their sole goal was to eliminate the Royal Family and oust Princess Celestia from power for committing heinous crimes against her own ponies, instigating a war with the griffons, and covering up illicit black operations. The group, led by former Royal Guard Night Shade, made many close attempts to assassinate the princesses, but were unsuccessful in doing so. The group was eventually snuffed out by a collaboration of the Royal Guard and the newly formed Skyfall Unit after attempting to blow up the Canterlot Grand Station with the Royal Family inside.
