So what does one do upon finding out that their best friend (and lately a bit more than that) has been hiding something from them? Namely, the fact that, once a month, they transform into the body of a destructive dark angel and spend the night hiding in their room?

Well, if you're Sunset Shimmer, you ask Twilight a magiphysiological question.

An entry into the Dialogue-Only Contest and the Sunset X Villain "Monster-shipping" Contest (2nd place winner!). Pre-read by Dewdrops on the Grass and The Sleepless Beholder.

It started with Sunset Shimmer, surges in her magic leaving her with headaches and worries, but as it continued, it took each of the girls, forcing them to remove their geodes in desperate need for a break from the constant nag.

All the signs point to one thing- Equestrian magic, but even with the help of Princess Twilight, no one can figure out where, or whom, it’s from, they only know every time they let it overtake them, it gets stronger.

What will happen? Will they be able to figure it out before something bad happens? Or will they be possessed by the magic, leaving it too late.

There’s no end to the monsters that lurk in the dark.

Ghosts, werewolves, mad scientists, cultists, mutants, zombies, vampires, aliens and more lie in wait in the dark corners of Equestria, terrorizing the night. But the most infamous and dangerous of them all is the legendary witch Twilight Sparkle, with a five hundred million bit bounty on her head.

Seeking fame and fortune, Rainbow Dash sets out to defeat the legendary witch and collect the massive reward. The one thing she wasn't counting on was Twilight being less evil than she expected.

More stories set in this AU can be found here.

In a separate universe, Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle were born into the world as alicorn princesses, twin daughters of Empress Celestia. One day, they were sent away to Ponyville, where they were destined to meet 5 special ponies. The story is as we know it; with loyalty, kindness, honesty, generosity, laughter, magic... betrayal, distrust, danger... and so much more.

Starlight still isn't entirely sure she belongs in Ponyville after her whole change the past plan goes poorly. It takes a strong pony to realize that sometimes you can't help everypony and Twilight realizes this. She sends Starlight to a bar to meet a friend and hopes she didn't make a mistake sending her student to the most bitter pony she knows.

It's true, Celestia has a lot on her plate: the stewardship of Canterlot High School has recently fallen into her lap; her dear younger sister has recently started a job at the very same high school; and the details of her romantic life are... best left unsaid. Any sane individual wouldn't want to add a child to that mix, but those adorable bright blue eyes were irresistible.

Sunset arrives in the human world as a pony in the middle of a busy freeway in Britain and physics happen. Stranded in a world that doesn't even recognize her as a person with everything she's ever wanted, consequences she never asked for and no way home, circumstances conspire for her to end up going to Hogwarts in Harry's year as Luna Lovegood's pet.

Two years ago, Rainbow Dash was attacked by a werewolf. She survived, but became a werewolf. After the Battle of the Bands, she finds herself telling her friends what she is.
But the old trauma remains, and when trying to help another friend adjust to become a werewolf, too, Rainbow Dash finds herself struggling to keep up with her old nightmares, and prevent Lyra Heartstrings from the same fears.

Wallflower Blush actually manages to erase the memories of the rest of the 6 with the memory stone. But instead of getting their memories of their entire high school life erased, she erases the memories of all of the friendships they made after attending CHS. Now, It's up to Sunset Shimmer to fix this wrong reality and get everyone’s memory back. But seriously, How?

Starts with an alternative ending to EG special : Forgotten Friendship

Sunset Shimmer possibly has a one-sided crush on Twilight.
For context:
It’s set near the end of middle school and the main 7 are already friends just not close yet.
