This story will take place in the Sombra and Flurry Heart adventures series. Anywho; here’s the description down below… .

Description: King Sombra is roped into babysitting Sweetie Belle while Rarity is going to a social event. Both Sweetie and Sombra knew that this was just a waste of time because Sweetie Belle is not too young anymore to be babysat. But yet; knowing how older siblings can get; Rarity doesn’t take “no” for an answer, and just ignored Sombra and her little sister’s protests for when she was leaving… .

Eventually though; Sweetie Belle does in a way enjoy being treated like as if she was young again… . Maybe she misses being young? Maybe she knew that she was growing up too fast, and wanted a good excuse to act as all young as she could be? Or is it because the Crusaders kept on calling her “cute”, and that she’s just either embracing it; or using it to her advantage to get back at them for calling her cute in a way… ?

Whatever the case; this story might somehow reflect all that. Hope y’all enjoy this, and hope y’all are being safe out there during these tough times. Stay safe, and peace out!

~One Nature, perfect and prevailing, circulates in all natures; one reality, all comprehensive, contains within itself, all realities. The one Moon reflects itself wherever there is a sheet of water, and all the moons in the waters are embraced within the one Moon. The Absolute of all Divine Teachers enters into my own being, And my own being is found in theirs. The Inner Light is beyond praise and blame; Like Space it knows no boundaries, Yet it is here, within us, ever retaining its serenity and fullness. You cannot take hold of it, but equally you cannot get rid of it, And while you can do neither, it goes on in its own way. You remain silent and it speaks; you speak and it remains dumb. The great gate of charity is wide open, with no obstacles before it.~

Originally, Twilight befriended all of her friends through the magic of the Sonic Rainboom and their shared cutie marks. They had went on their way to become what they are today, Saviors of Equestria, deliverers of hope, heck even a princess. However that all changed when Twilight faced off against Starlight and her ideals.

This had set a chain of events which led to Starlight now sitting on the magic friendship map. Starlight, with help, goes to the beginning of it all and tries to stop her bad end of the bargain. Twilight dives through the portal with Spike in her grasp and changes history. The world she had left behind changed to the whims of time, fate, and happenstance. Old enemies reclaimed what was once lost to them. Whole civilizations have crumbled to dust and ash. You know...The old song and dance between bitter rivals and all.

However, all that has been transfigured once again. It wasn't due to anything on Twilight's or Starlight's part in this fate of theirs. No, it was because of one single solitary entity that all of it has now changed. He had arrived in a time and place where he never belonged. He did know about this world though. He feared what his presence might've caused or influenced in the grand scheme of things. He tried his hardest to avoid the limelight of it all as well as keeping himself alive during it all. This had worked somewhat. He did make friends with Zecora, minor acquaintances with some of the Elements of Harmony, and some few stray travelers going through the wood, but this...this too has been changed by his arrival.

This is a "What If" story that had come to mind due to this site actually and the season 5 finale. My thoughts had included many things such as: What would've happened if the mane 6 weren't alone in their quests against the various enemies? What if some intruder had happened upon the country near the very beginning of the series? Would the endings be any different? Would Twilight have left things as they were? I know that people have probably done it already, but for the authors that I was waiting for, I knew that they wouldn't include this situation in their HIE stories or just avoid the whole mess entirely and make it so it never happened but everything else stayed the same. For those reasons, I made this little story to get my point across that this situation can be written about, as well as, see what other people think of if it, and if it could be a possible course of events or not.

Shadow Wing has had a rough life. From growing up in less then adequate conditions and fighting just to survive. Shadow has kept his past shrouded in mystery from those who he holds most dear. But now, in order to ensure a better future for himself and his friends, Shadow must open up about his past to show his friends that he that he is exactly that. A friend.

Shadow (mainly referred to as Specter for reasons explained in the story) is my OC and the main character.

Other characters include: Crescent Blade and Ruby Wing created by Nocturnis Comics. And Vanessa Venom Created by Voltsthevoltvolts
Though these characters will not be featured throughout the story. Just the beginning and the end.

Rated Teen for violence and language.

What happens when you buy yourself so much time, you forget the very reason you bought it in the first place. What happens, when the sun is about to set, not to rise when you expect it too. What is a land to do, when the very magic they used to save them is disturbed, unleashing a hellscape that even the Princess's fought to repress?

Perfect Reflections stumbled upon a ruin within the badlands. Disturbing the peace within, she unleashes a monster upon Equestria that even the Elements cannot combat. Will she be able to correct her mistake, or will Equestria be lost to a darkness so complete, the very sun cannot penetrate it.

A/N: This story will very likely go Mature in the future if I continue. I don't suggest getting attached if that is not okay.

Tirek's back in Tartarus, Discord's thoroughly learned his lesson, and Twilight's role as royalty has finally been defined. All's well in Ponyville...on the surface. But Equestria (not to mention Gaia) is much more than a single rural town founded by modest settler ponies. As the Agents of Harmony, together quite literally the embodiment of harmony itself, our beloved royal Council of Friends find themselves thrust into ever more conflicts concerning ponies of all shapes and sizes. Whether they like it or not, they will be tasked with figuring out just what it means to be a cognitive creature in the midst of this endless struggle we call life. A slice of life story reaching epic proportions.

Foreword: The world that has been created for this series is diverse and wildly entertaining, but I feel like it's inherently held back content-wise due to the fact that it was commissioned and is maintained as a "kids' show". Many aspects of this story will come from my own life, but in essence this is meant to be a reflection of what I believe life has become for us here on Gaia (or, as it's more commonly known in the States, Earth). Ideally, this will turn out to be a touching tale of desperation and adulation, and maybe even serve to open a few eyes along the way.

Now, I struggled with myself for a long time on whether or not to omit cursing, but have come to the conclusion that I will merely follow the writers' own example and use the creative cursing that's been established, along with a few of my own. As for what exactly constitutes dark material, there will be references to certain aspects of real life which will be reworked to fit within the context of the setting. Directly pointing these out for you beforehand would take away from the thrill of reading them for yourself, but you can rest assured that nothing explicit will be spelled out in plain English in this story.

Next, I'd like to take a moment to just say that this is only my interpretation of these copyrighted characters, and while I personally prize myself on my ability to method-act, I must insist that it be remembered that nothing which develops in this story has anything to do with the canon world whatsoever. I know it should seem obvious, but feel like it might as well be stated anyway. And, of course, I own nothing, not even the air I breathe.

The story starts off after Princess Luna gets home from a Nightmare Night celebration. Luna gets some sleep but has a dream where she hears a voice telling her to kill someone. She wakes up abruptly with Princess Celestia sitting next to her. When Luna goes to get a drink of water, she sees Nightmare Moon's reflection in it.

The next morning, Celestia tells Luna to make some friends so she goes off to find Twilight Sparkle, hoping she'll be able to help. When Luna gets to the library, she finds that Twilight is too busy looking for her three missing books which Spike says he loaned to Applejack. Luna then goes off to Sweet Apple Acres to recover the books but Applejack says she only has two of them, and the other, she lent to Fluttershy. As Applejack says this, she mentioned Pinkie Pie's name which causes some reaction in Luna's head, causing her to black out, followed by the same "Kill Her" whispers. When Luna wakes up, she finds out she's been asleep for an entire day.

Without telling Applejack what was going on, Luna left SAA and went to Fluttershy's cottage to get the final book. At first, Fluttershy was scared but after Luna tells her that she just wants the book, she lets her in. Unfortunately, Fluttershy also had to mention Pinkie Pie's name, forcing Luna to go into another coma, hearing those same "Kill Her" whispers. This time, however, it doesn't take Luna long to wake up and finds out that she attacked Fluttershy in her sleep, as she woke up, pinning her to the ground. Again, without any warning of what was going on, Luna grabbed the book and returned to Twilight's library. When Luna gave the books to Twilight, she was about to mention Pinkie Pie but Luna stopped her and told her all the truth. Twilight grabbed a book titled "Possesions" but as she read it, Luna escaped. Twilight grabbed the Elements of Harmony and went to look for the other Mane 6. As she does this, however, Luna finds Pinkie Pie and slashes her in half, thus killing her with all the blood pouring out.

Once the Mane 6 get to that horrible scene, Luna, who now turns out to be Nightmare Moon starts chasing them around Ponyville but trips and falls, making her unconscious. They return to Pinkie's dead body once they see that Nightmare Moon will be out for a while. After lots of crying, they give her a proper burial and leave. At that moment, Nightmare Moon awakens except she's now Luna again. She goes home to the castle at Canterlot and has a talk with Celestia. When Celestia turns around, it reveals that she is in fact not Celestia, and is instead a Zalgo version of Pinkie Pie.

Luna screams in terror and wakes up, now realizing that it was a dream. However, she was in the spot from where she had fallen unconscious as Nightmare Moon earlier. This time, instead of going to the castle, Luna headed for Twilight again who after some qusetioning, decides to help her. They unbury Pinkie's coffin together and see that Pinkie isn't even in it. Then, a Zalgo Pinkamena (with the straight hair, derped and even more bloodier eyes) appears behind them.

Yet again, Luna randomly wakes up, screaming, however in bed in her castle this time. She goes to the main hall to talk with Celestia again but she ends up banishing Luna from Equestria. When she leaves the castle, she falls into a bottomless pit leading into Pony Hell. Looking around, she could see Zalgo Pinkie's and Zalgo Pinkamena's everywhere, forcing her to run as far and fast as she can.

As Luna ran, she fell off a cliff and kept falling until hitting the ground and some grass. She saw shadows of Twilight and Pinkie Pie pass by her but what she wasn't expecting was when she came face to face with Nightmare Moon. They have a conversation, where Nightmare Moon explains that they are the same person. When Luna refuses to believe this, Nightmare Moon forces a crack in the Earth's surface and Luna falls back into Pony Hell once more. There, she sees a normal looking Pinkie Pie but slowly starts bleeding and turns into Zalgo Pinkie who then jumps on and attacks Luna. Luna manages to knock Zalgo Pinkie off her and starts running when she notices now that about 30 Zalgo Pinkie's and Pinkamena's are chasing after her. Eventually, she falls off a cliff and sees the Zalgo Pinkie's and Pinkamena's jump off too. One gets on top of her and Luna closes her eyes after feeling blood drop into it.

When Luna opens her eyes, she notices that the drop was, in fact, not blood, and instead, a rain drop. She was outside in the rain with the Mane 6 surrounding her saying that she fell unconscious while helping Twilight find her books. Pinkie Pie says they should throw her a party and Luna agrees. After the Mane 6 leave, Luna sees Nightmare Moon and has another chat with her. Afterward, she heads to Ponyville and parties with the Mane 6 where Pinkie Pie scares her by putting Zalgo makeup on.

After the story ends, Celestia starts making a "Captains log" which she explains she recovered from the technology of the Starship Enterprise, referencing Joshweiser22's story My Little Trekkie. She also explains how everything was actually not a dream and instead, Luna really did kill Pinkie Pie. Celestia just felt very bad about banning Luna from Equestria so instead, she used Starship Enterprise transporter technology to put Pinkie Pie together and magic to bring her back to life. Then, she erased the memories of all the ponies who witnessed or saw anything to do with the events that transpired. She tries to erase her own memory with her neuralizer (referencing Men In Black and yet another one of Joshweiser22's stories Shaded From The Truth) but decides she just can't do it and is forced to live with the secret from there on out.

The Mirror, an inanimate object that allows one to see their true reflection. Many say that even the Mirror isn't as innocent as it seems. Breaking one would mean seven years bad luck and the deadly glass shards it produces when shattered. But what if the mirror has the power to spawn death itself? That's the case for this one particular Mirror. Possessed by a demon of the past, this cursed mirror has spawned the opposite side of one's reflection. The more good in one's heart, the reflected version becomes more deadly and evil. Twilight Sparkle didn't think much of this mirror at first, but now she wishes she'd listen to the warning the sales pony at the yard sale had given her.

A journey of a lost little one and her reflection on what she knew.
