Based on Crusaders of the Lost Mark
With all that glowy-magic stuff going on, one might have thought that the Cutie Mark Crusaders were going to become alicorns.
Well they did – without even getting their cutie marks.
Always late to the party.

i like it and please make more chapters for this story
I had this exact thought when I saw the whole glowy light-show. Of course now I'm adding it to my head-canon that after the other 5 of the Mane 6 become alicorns the CMC do as well as their sisters wouldn't be able to live down watching them grow old and die.
Yeah, keep going.
Yeah, the CMC's process of getting the cutie marks was VERY different from the others that we've seen. My theory is that it was different because the three of them got their cutie marks together. Simultaneously. And I'm guessing that's a VERY rare thing to happen in Equestria!
...but yeah, I was thinking, "Wow! They're princesses now! Princesses of the Cutie Mark Crusaders!"
Glad to see I inspired you to make this fun little thing! That, I believe, is the first time I've successfully inspired someone to create a story.
Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing more if you have an idea for where to take it. I might not even mind helping with the proofing, if you asked.
That got a chuckle from me.
My daughter's exact words when the Crusaders where engulfed in the light were: "Daddy, look are they going to become alicorns now?"
Thank you for making her dream come true, I'll have to let her read this later.
I thought they
weregoing to become alicorns when the lightshow started. I seriously did! All the talk of friendship and talent didn't help, either.If you actually have a longer story to go with this, I'll read it.

Well, what with the glowing and all, all you had to do was tip me over the edge.
...huh. When you quote me, it almost looks like I had any clue what I was doing. That gets a chuckle from me.
6523289
Not a problem at all. I would love to know what she thinks.
6523540
That goes along with Bugsy's
As if I had any idea in the first place. Honestly, this didn't exist more than about 6 hours ago. Not even as an idea. I certainly don't have plans for how I would continue it.
Though, really, the Cutie Mark Crusaders as confused blank-flank alicorns? Oh, the possibilities. None of them are good.

If I continue (which, granted, several of you have voted for), I doubt I would attempt anything of greater quality than is in the first chapter, which was one hour of brain-spewing on an obvious idea. Also, I won't be able to poke fun at magical appearance-changing windows or inexplicable teleporting Apple Blooms. Okay, I can, but not because they're in the show.
6523209
Let's face it MLP is at its core a kids show, so either it gets suddenly cancelled (unlikely), or they go for the weird ending where everyone either become alicorns or at the least immortal, well with a movie coming up along with likely at least another season, the latter option seems most likely
6523932 ok
Excellent story. I would really like to see where you take this.
6523932
Her reaction: Sweetie Belle is best princess
I knew you were on this site somewhere, Larson.
I'm watching you.

Great story, by the way.
i knew someone would make a fic of this
Man I wish that really happen, them turning into Alicorns. It would have been so funny
Just about everyone (including myself) on Live Stream (Bronystate, Pinkie Pie Theatre) was expecting them to turn into alicorns.
6524083
Well, you can tell her to expect more, then. Honestly, I have no problem exploiting their adorable awesomeness for this story. Mostly because I'm acknowledging that now.
6524094
Thanks. Also, I am, to the best of my knowledge, in no way responsible for or participating in the creation of the series... i.e. not Larson.
I suppose I'll take that as a kinda-sorta compliment.
6524731
me and her will both be looking for it.
This was a very well-written story. I enjoyed it.
You know, I could see this actually happening one day. Sometime in the future, when the CMC's have helped countless numbers of ponies discover their true destinies, I feel that their actions could grasp the attention of the royal sisters. One thing would lead to another, and in the end, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo would become the Cutie Mark Princesses. I mean, we already have princesses of the sun, the night, love, and friendship. What other roles could there possibly be if more alicorns were to appear?
Keep on writing!
6524882 The triumvirate of cutie mark acquisition. XD
6524731 Make it a secret society. Like ten years in the future they run a massive corporation which is dedicated to helping young ponies find their cutie marks.

I remember that and I was just like... "OMG OMG OMG!!! *fangirl squee* then I was just...". . . wtf they got basically the same cutiemarks :T"
I would love to see this continued.

Keep them coming!
Haven't read it yet, but I thought of something similar with that scene. That was a lot of magic for just getting cutie marks and I was thinking that the three actually did become an alicorn... singular. Now Apple Bloom has alicorn level earth pony magic, Scootaloo has alicorn level pegasus magic, and Sweetie Belle has alicorn level unicorn magic.
Also, anyone ever notice that Apple Blooms mark didn't match up with what was originally hinted at? Like, everyone thought Sweetie's talent would be singing, and she did get a music note in her shield. Scoots was always a toss up between dancing or some sort of sport stuff, and the lightning/wing was kind of on point with that. But Bloom's talent was hinted at being carpentry or design, and she ended up with a heart and apple.
6529357 Hmm...I don't know. I like that idea of them being an alicorn as a group, but I don't know about Applebloom's cutie mark. I suppose we'll have to wait and see if they show what it means.
Me and my siblings actually joked about the CMC becoming alicorns when they got their cutie marks. It was just after Bloom and Gloom.
Poor Mac. . .
Now they can gush about how their little princess really is a little princess.
Mother of Luna...
Do their respective pets know?
The CMC princesses might need a bodyguard.
Shouldn't there be an AU tag?
Still waiting for Alicorn level CMC destruction. That still somehow involves tree sap.
6532591
I've always felt this site needed a "divergent" tag for stories that are canon up to a point then diverge. AU could mean anything as long as you somehow justify a connection to MLP-FiM.
6532727 Maybe somepony should suggest it to an admin of this site. Not me because I'm usually busy writing or reading stories.
Could somebody please come and mop me up? I have dissolved into a puddle from the cute in this story.
And you're keeping up with their recent characterization, too!
6532459 Or everypony else might need a guard from them.
Getting all the alicorns up in these shenanigans. I like it!
MEH... To this I say that there are five more element bearers that deserve being Alicorn more but I've hear rumors of a CMC castle... But it does mean they got one powerful destiny for sure but it is funny idea...
6534048
Just wait until Discord hears of this!
6532591
I thought about it briefly, but since the world I'm working with is based on canon, I doubt that it would be wholly appropriate.
6532727
The list of possibilities is extensive.
6532948
I couldn't respect myself if I let the opportunity for that joke pass by unnoticed.
Twist requested an ordinary window.
DAMMIT LARSON!!!!
I'm giving this a like and a favorite...
He's so overreacting...
That kind of reaction should be saved for when Pinkie becomes an Alicorn.
Nice work, well done.
Cutie Mark Crusaders: PRINCESSES! I would love a sequel
I love this story
6939657
If you have not already, I recommend checking out the links that I have placed within the notes at the end of the chapter. If you look closely, you might find something worthwhile.
I am continuing the idea of the CMC as alicorns, just not as part of this story, for reasons stated on the other side of one of those links. I am writing a series of stories on the idea (separate from this one), rather than more chapters or a sequel.
If I do a bonus chapter in my story, I'll definitely have to use that Big Mac idea.
Anyway, this is definitely more comedic than mine, but it was a nice, short read. And your cover art is more centered than mine. I'm envious, mine pulls slightly to the right.
7019275
I made it myself. :3 If one can call a screen-capture "making".
If you're truly that envious, though, you can just use mine. Just be sure that Fimfiction isn't going to crop it off-center before you save.
And then she woke up from this terrible nightmare.
Happy April Fools Day, everyone.
