At first I thought I was dreaming, since the last thing I remember was taking a nap. Well it turns out I died when some bee bear monster crashed into my house and it collapsed on top of me.

Since I've got these wings and halo, I'm pretty sure I know where it is that I'm supposed to be. Unfortunately my bad luck seems to have struck once again, as I appear to be lost somewhere in the afterlife! Still at least this time I have a really good reason to keep going. After all, Heaven awaits. Now if I can only find it...

Something's been bothering Sunset Shimmer for a while now.

How can there be a human version of Princess Celestia who's in her early forties, when Princess Celestia herself is thousands of years old?

The Rainbooms catch wind of Celestia and Luna's upcoming family reunion, and decide to crash it.

What they find there is...disturbing.

Celestia wants to get into her throne room.

A kindergartener wants her to prove she's actually Celestia first.

After the changelings took over Equestria and enslaved the ponies, the dragons decided they wanted a piece of the prize. The changelings and dragons came to an agreement. They would give the ponies they didn't need to the dragons, and the dragons in turn would help keep their prisoners from escaping.

Every year the changelings go through their prisoners and find the ones with no families, the ones who don't generate as much love as the others, and give them to the dragons. Sweetie Belle has managed to remain hidden... until now.

Now she waits in a cell to be the next sacrifice to the dragon who guards the town. A dragon who looks very, very, hungry...

What if Rainbow Dash never existed to turn six young lives upside down with her Sonic Rainboom?

Harmony will always find its Element-bearers, and something certainly would have united six friends to wield them ... but a change as small as the flapping of a butterfly's wings can have enormous effects on everything that follows.

Second-place winner in Skeeter the Lurker's "Switcheroo!" competition! This entry centers around the episode "Sonic Rainboom" (with influences from several others).

"Recommended" by Present Perfect: "Though this is well-worn material, the directions in which horizon takes it are remarkable. ... That alone makes it worth the read."
Reviewed by PaulAsaran: "horizon's re-imagining of Equestria is almost complete, defying the norms and tossing most of our expectations to the four winds. ... I am very impressed."

Celestia is trapped on Earth.
Not as a human. Not as an alicorn. She's a common horse, an Arabian mare, without her magic, voice, knowledge of the language - not even freedom, forced to work at a riding school.

What can a single Arabian mare do to get back to Equestria from this backwater European country? With only the mind of a princess and a pencil in her teeth, Celestia must find a way home.
