Chapters (6)
Let's see where this goes.
Yay! It's out! I like this first chapter, great job!
10140746
Thanks, it was surprisingly harder then I thought. This the third starting chapter I wrote.
I think eventually Nightshade will become less villainous, but she's going to be a very greedy child for a while, she has the knowledge and drive of an adult but the maturity of toddler.
10140755
Been there.
10140808
That is my goals for the little nightmare. It is a challenge to write her being immature at the same time having an adult like cunning.
Waiting for Nightshade to school Sunset in villainy
wouldn't this technically be considered a sequel to "mother moon, cousin love", the sequel to mother moon, daughter nightmare instead of a direct sequel to the latter?
10141700
Yeah I make the change.
The knowledge and experiences of a 1,000+ years old tyrant in the body of a toddler going through the "Terrible Twos"(soon anyway) and the "MINE!" phase.
HUZZAH! The child rearing problems have been doubled!
Agreed, I mean what other reason is there to drag the mirror all the way from Canterlot to the Crystal Empire and asking Twilight to come as well when all her "duties" end up being rolling out a banner
It's a great chapter, I can't wait to see how Nightshade manages to steal the crown.
I am going to miss this filly
Nightshad's greatest foe, being a child. "I will take over over Equestria with my army of... Ooooo shiny!"
This is a great chapter, I like the introduction to the human world. Can't wait to see where that comment by VP Luna goes
Oh the chapter is very good.
I look forward to the next update.
10343158
I might disappoint you. I'm not planning on revealing what VP Luna comments about till the epilogue.
10343301
Eh, that's okay. Still can't wait to see the next chapter.
10343358
Yeah, it something special but involving it in the story would be a distraction. Next Chapter Teenage Nightshade meets the Equestria Girls CMC!
10343373
Ooh, can't wait to see it!
Interesting chapter.
Yes
Nightshade is not wrong with the trade thing. If the dragons act up you can embargo. Better then war
10343553
That trade talk was difficult for me to write. Wasn’t sure I was saying things correctly to get my ideas through. Basically on paper it looks like Equestria is paying higher prices to the Minotaurs in gems, but most get sent from the Minotaurs to the dragons. The Dragon do the same in reverse sending metals to the Minotaurs and Equestria gets the extra plus the tech trade from the Minotaurs. It not clear that Equestria comes out on top unless you look at multiple trade deals.
Yes, technically Nightshade is right, but she was saying in terms of using threats of cutting off supplies to get the Dragons to do things for her.
Can you imagine Celestia at the table looking at the diplomats that heard. “It seems that my little niece is entering the terrible twos. Me, me, and mine mine. Sadly I have to wait till she grown out of it.”
Interesting story, read the others and am enjoying them. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the comment. I’m glad you enjoyed my writing.
This story will be the last of the full adventure stories. My writing style changed a bit with me writing the Doom of Griffonstone story.
I am thinking of making short stories still. Similar to the Mother Moon, Joys of parenthood. Mainly I keep imagining Nightshade’s first day of school.
<_< yes... >_> no suchthing atall.
Damn even in a world without magic Discord just finds anything that causes Chaos enjoyable.
10374317
Ah but it does have magic, just not a lot. After all the Sirens been surviving for a very long time they need some magic to do so.
I also had Nightshade instinctively used magic to send the exploding volcano away.
10374362
That's fair, but it still doesn't change the fact that EQG Discord still finds joy in Chaos even if he doesn't know the reason why.
I am Discord in this scene
Aww, poor Luna, that's so sad...and poor Nightshade not having anywhere to go. I hope the next chapter makes things get better for them both.
10374380
Yeah, I was going to save that info for later. Then thought why not include it now. There will be an epilogue with VP Luna spending time with her Nightshade.
At this time in the movie Twilight sleeping in the library.
10374415
Ooh, okay. I can't wait to see the next chapter
I don't think human Nightshade should exist
Hah. This was good.
Great chapter!
Love your choice of song
It's a three way race for the crown, and the soul of Equestria!
Who will win?! Who will lose!?
Find out maybe nextime on Drago...ehm, Mother moon and the fallen Sunset!!
Hard see what Nightshade's plan is, thinking her time as a foal has effected her much more than she thinks as her plan seems to be missing vital steps. Like what will she do if she gets the crown? I expect it could end in a anti-climax with it just being taken away from her like a naughty child, which she is, and her getting grounded. Or what might Sunset do now that she thinks she doomed her home? Will she snap out of her edgy rebel phase with out needing a Rainbow smack down?
Ooh, Nightshade's getting fancy, and Sunny's seeing things from another light. Cool!
10659209
Not quite Fru Fru, but getting there! Yeah, I was googling dresses and saw that and it just screamed the right style for Nightshade. A little dark, a little playful.
Notice how Twilight never paid for any food in the Equestria Girl movies. Yeah, that's my excuse for how Nightshade gets what she wants from the stores.
10659220
Yeah, that makes sense, good job with the chapter
Some real mindfuckery going on here.
10659252
Thanks I think.
I always thought Nightmare Moon was into mind games. Except for the cliff and antagonizing the Manticore the other attacks on the mane 6 were more mental.
So my versions do tend to do the mind game method.
10659283
it's a compliment. she is messing with them but are you messing with us with what she is doing
10659315
I would like to say yes, but that be lying. I once gave up on this story because I had trouble thinking of a really good ending.
My skills in writing and planning ahead improved since I started this story. After seeing the Cancelled and feeling that I failed did I set out to finish this.
So the story itself is simple and in truth someone already figured out my plan for the ending. So no manipulation on my part.
10659329
Sometimes you need to pause and rethink. Story has good premise.
And sunset just wanted Celestia. Celestia tends to avoid seeing anything in front of her that she doesn't want to see. Sunset might have felt replaced when cadence came in to the picture. And was trying to get Celestia attention. Maybe she went about the wrong way but Celestia wasn't better by playing games with her students.
A shame that was canceled because this is good.
