In the magical world of Equestria, it never snows. It never rains, never falls to night. But for one day, I just can't help but break the norm.

Canon within my Sky-Verse. Prior knowledge is not required.

This story was written for a contest. I'd recommend checking out the other entries, because they're all really cool.

The asylum is abuzz with the whispers of the sick and mentally impaired, as it has been for hundreds of years. "Protect the prince," they whispered. "Find the magic," they whispered. "Use the Elements," they whispered.

When a new, especially unusual phrase is added to the list of centuries old delusions, the genius prodigy of the Queen, Twilight Sparkle, takes it upon herself to investigate. However, the Queen's response to her findings send her reeling across half the country, hiding from her mentor's rage by following the vague instructions from the dreams of crazy ponies. Confusing answers only reveal more twisted questions as Twilight tries to save herself, four special ponies, and-- to her sanity's shame-- a dragon that somehow breathes green flames. The only thing keeping her going is her original quest, an insane command that she'd die to fulfill.

"Return the gentle Moon on the night of the scorching Sun."

Basis of the Sky-Verse.

Each of the Mane Six will be present, but Twilight Sparkle is still the main character. Rainbow Dash is also a very important character, and I will not go into specifics as to which Wonderbolts will be present. There is, after all, a limit to the amount of character tags. They may be subject to change, but it'll probably stay the same.

I have no clue where this idea came from, and it's probably ridiculously overdone on this site, but I hope you enjoy it anyways. As always, if you find anything you dislike or like, please let me know through a comment or a PM. All constructive criticism is welcome!

Beautiful new cover art drawn by the lovely Eztp (2135D on here). A billion thanks to you!

Please note that I will be modeling the asylum mostly off seventeenth century lunatic asylums.

The Canterlot Archive decides to create a document listing the age of every pony in Equestria. It's impossible to mess this up.

After being summoned to a meeting with Wonderbolt Commander Spitfire, Rainbow Dash finally learns the truth about why she has been passed over by the Wonderbolts all this time. A little bit of Rainbowfire.

Everypony daydreams.

Some ponies daydream about becoming rich and famous. Other ponies daydream about meeting their one true love. Still others daydream about becoming great heroes.

Celestia's daydreams are nothing like that. Indeed, when her mind wanders, she imagines what her life would be like if she was an ordinary mare. No tiara, no wings, no castle. Just an ordinary mare living an ordinary life in an ordinary town.

What would those daydreams look like?

Note 2: Electric Boogaloo: FEATURE!!!

As far as antagonistic, anti-social teenagers went, I always figured I was relatively normal.
Aside from the fact that I talk to myself in my own head way too much.
And my thoughts are always like wildfires that can never be stopped, never be controlled.

I did say relatively.

Until I woke up this morning with a pink and purple stripe in my hair and Twilight Sparkle's voice in my head.
I knew my mom should have listened when I said there was something wrong with me... Now I'm actually, certifiably, insane.
Probably.

Every night, shunned and on her own, Luna watches the moon. Little more than a cold silhouette to the mortal lives on the ground below, she watches over Equestria in her own way. Despite her misery, she will not give up her post.

Rated "Teen" for suicidal themes.

Written for the Weekly Contests Prompt #10, though the idea had come a while before that. Original cover art by LethalAuroraMage. All credits go to her.

Unfortunately, since I deleted the old story, all comments were deleted. I apologize for the inconvenience, and I hope I won't discover that I need to rewrite the whole thing again. There were parts that were left alone, but a lot of changes were made.

Rarity is such posh and proper pony, and she won't stop pestering ponies until they're as posh and proper as her, no matter how many times it back fires. "Darlings! Please help me! This isn't right! This isn't right at all! They're watching. They twist things to their designs. I wish to Princess Celestia I was just insane! But they're real! And whenever they arrive, my suffering begins. How many times until I'm ground into dust?"

Nothing to do with the Pony POV Series.

Applejack and Rarity's relationship was never easy, even at the best of times. But their love for one another was constant, an irresistible force, up until one day when it was no longer enough.

Years have passed since then, and on one quiet night, their paths cross once again.

Minuette sits outside, sipping tea and waiting for something. This is about to become the best day of her life. She knows it, and yet she doesn't.
