So many close calls, so many potential hesitations, so many things that Twilight and Spike could have done differently, and they'd have failed. It doesn't matter what they did wrong or didn't do right, only that a split-second is all the difference Sombra needed. Now, Twilight is completely at Sombra's mercy, subject to whatever mind games he has planned for her...

Recent viewing of The Crystal Empire is helpful but hopefully not necessary. Special thanks to Mickeymonster for drawing the image that inspired this story.

This story is a sequel to Dark Wanderings

It's been nine months since Twilight Sparkle got back from her solo sojourn to the Capital Wasteland where she met Ethan Smith, AKA that Crazy Son of a Bitch, AKA the Lone Wanderer and was changed forever. Now with Equestria teetering on the edge of a three way war Ethan is called upon to save Equestria, or at the very least to keep Twilight alive. But dark things are awakening in the background and all is not as it seems, can Ethan save Equestria? Can Twilight keep her friends on her side? Will these questions never stop? The answer to at least one of these is yes but can you find out which?

It has been a few months since Twilight and her friends went to help save the Crystal Empire, and Twilight had to use dark magic to find the Heart. And ever since she got back, Twilight's been acting strange spending most of her time muttering to herself, hearing voices, and locking herself up in her now 'off limits' lab basement.

P.S. seeing how many corrupted twilight fics there are, I'm sorry if anything I write is from your stories.

It all started out with somepony she thought she defeated--twice-- coming in in the middle of the night.

After that whole thing with the coronation of her as princess of friendship, she's become more popular than ever. While she did learn to take everything in stride, and carefully keep her pride in check, another problem has came up. Suddenly ponies she has met or known have become very interested in her. Even to the point of ponies and creatures she thought she defeated for good showing up for cuddles! It appears that the friendship aspect of her princess title has been cranked up twenty-fold; right when she wanted nothing more than some time alone, relaxing with a good book.

Only one question remains: can she conquer this affect of the friendship magic coursing through everypony's veins, or will she cave under the pressure, and simply accept her fate as a living, breathing teddy bear?

Snuggle fic where I may or may not accept suggestions from commentators on the next chapter.

When a certain approval for the study of dark magic or as it's actually called 'Forbidden Magic', Twilight get's a evil inside of her body that is unknown. As the truth was found she tries to free herself from the evil's wrath, it was known that she couldn't free herself. Now that the evil spirit has taken over her body, what will take place next?

Note: This is my first fanfiction! So I would appreciate it if I could get feedback of my story including constructive criticism! Also, there are quite a few characters, just couldn't be checked due to limit, oh well (:

It was supposed to be easy. A simple ambush. Jump a flanking force of Sombra's before they reach the battlefield. Rainbow Dash and the rest of the Wonderbolts had done it a thousand times before. She could do it in her sleep.

But then things go south for Dash, and she's taken behind enemy lines. Everypony knows her fate: to be brainwashed into serving Sombra. But what seems to be hopeless may just reveal more about Dash than she knows about herself.

The armies of King Sombra have been halted at the Crystal Front. The Crystal Empire and Equestria clash with a daily death toll in the thousands, deadlocked at the front lines. This is a story of those who fought to defend their homes against an unrelenting foe.

A very frightened, lonely, and unprepared Twilight Sparkle finds herself the target of King Sombra's terrifying bands of mercenaries and monsters on her way to the Front.

The good news is that she has help.

The bad news is that her help is a squad of the Damned: the worst of the worst, ordered to fight without cease until they die as penance for past crimes.

The worse news is that Twilight has someone in her head, someone that King Sombra is very eager to acquire.
