The Doctor sends River to bring him back from an alternate universe. Little does she know that she's in way over her head. Hilarity and ponies ensue.

WARNING:
Dear Celestia so many spoilers. If you haven't watched the most recent season of Doctor Who you will either be spoiled or confused. Maybe not too confused. BUT VERY SPOILED.

Three hundred years ago, Equestria almost invaded the peaceful and idyllic nation of Cavallia, the homeland of Princess Mi Amore Cadenza.

The invasion would have been accidental.

It was quite awkward.

Twilight Sparkle brings the plagues unto Canterlot when Celestia turns the others of the mane six to stone.

When Twilight finds a horribly distraught Gilda in the library, begging for help with Rainbow Dash, what is she to do? Twilight, the number one expert on friendship, has been asked to help with a friendship issue, so why not? It should make an interesting letter to the Princess if nothing else.

A/N: here is the GilTwi I promised. It took me forever to get all the ideas and what not and special thanks

to For The Plot for all their help on this. Honestly, without that guy I probably would've just skipped this and done a raripie or som- no probably not that but still...
I have no clue where I'm gonna go with this thing, and am actually open to suggestions in the comments.
enjoy!
Knowing full well that I haven't finished it yet, I am setting this in the same Cannon as New Perspective, though it can stand on it's own.

Strange discoveries. Mysterious twitching. The curious feeling of being watched. And a sudden urge to sing. Something's happening to Applejack, and no matter how often she laughs, this is no laughing matter!

When the young Twilight gets her mind set on something, nothing will pull her away. Sometimes this determination leads her to do great things; other times it dumps her in the pouring rain. And, of course, she drags princess Celestia along for the ride.

An unexpected turn of events have lead to Discord's freedom, but his plans are turned asunder when Twilight Sparkle accidentally badly injures him.

Vulnerable and weak, the spirit is taken in under the ever watchful, gentle and concerned eyes of Fluttershy. Through this time of healing, the pegasus discovers that there's more to this miscreant than meets the eye, and she's determined to prove it.

Through this process dark secrets are revealed, pain is revealed, and gradually a hidden side never seen of the draconequus, and Fluttershy struggles to push him and past friends back together.

Will she ultimately have an effect on his indifferent heart or this only another one of his dastardly plans?

R&R

(So far there are already ten written chapters. If this story gets good reception I'll upload them all and continue to update. If you're impatient, all chapters can be found on my deviantart account at cryssy-miu.deviantart.com There is also a ton of art on my account too, which includes the story's preview image~)

Love is the most sacred of magics, possessed by all but commanded by few. It is the driving force behind life in Equestria, the lifeblood of pony civilization.

But when a new kind of magic arrives in Equestria, it is up to its bearer, Twilight Sparkle, to decide its fate...
or perhaps it's up to the magic to decide hers.
