The Usurper


I write stories. One day, I'll be really, really good at it. One day.

T

Description: When Twilight discovers a new spell that allows anypony to take a peek into the future, all her friends grab the opportunity to see whether they were destined to achieve their dreams. However, the future may not be as they thought, and when disaster strikes, they are forced to rethink what they really want- and how far they would go to achieve their ambitions. For at the end of the day, after all is said and done, even the best of ponies may be found wanting.

Nice I like everything seems almost normal when we find twilight is the princess but then everything takes a turn to the dark side

Holy Hell, amazing story, need moar! :pinkiehappy::rainbowkiss::pinkiegasp:

GOD DAM, this shiz be epic. I demand MOAR

So, sounds like Discord managed to worm his way into Twlight's brain and the others.

Pinkamina and Twilight the ususrper. Very nice.

Discord
It all makes sense now!

This seem's like a nice story. But I can't help but wonder what in Celestia happened?

The 4th wall has nothing on Pinkie:rainbowlaugh::pinkiehappy:

WOW. Trixie is succesful rebel?! NEAT

For some reason, I would think that at least one of them would leave a message for their past selves for when they would relive the events from their own perspective.

So let me get this straight Trixie is the leader of an alliance and Derpy hooves is like a trained scout/what-ever-else-there-is and Pinkie actually has connections with actuall PEOPLE *cough*you*cough* gosh this story is getting weirder and weirder. :derpytongue2:

:facehoof:Twilight, do not question Pinkie's logic, she's a terribly powerful creature, even by Alicorn standards.:pinkiecrazy:

BSM3~

:pinkiegasp:YAY 4 DISCORD, THAT HANDSOME EVIL BASTARD!:yay:

Oooh, fight the future, liking it!

(Where the buck is Spike, though? Did he leave in horror? Bet he did.)

Yes update! And things are coming together it seems n bad ways n good ways. Hah Trixie and Zecora is still awesome in this reality.
Although the fact that AJ has technically died makes me sad........:ajsleepy:

HAH! Okay, Pinkie, you've told me good! :twilightsheepish::twilightsheepish:

"You got that right, determamfidd!":pinkiehappy:
PINKIE GET OFF MY LAPTOP AND BACK INTO THE STORY WHERE YOU BELONG!!
"But...":pinkiesad2:
Ugh... fine. No more fourth wall breaking just for today, okay? Tomorrow, maybe.
"Yay!":pinkiehappy:
The things I put up with...

There. After a really, really long time, Chapter 5 is out. My work ethic has been terrible for the last few months.
Well, since no one said anything for the chapter length, I just went ahead and did another 7000 word chapter.
So, anyway, enjoy!

Haha, I have to agree with the 7000 word chapters. It feels like a good length...if you're still writing this story anyways. It's been a while. *hint hint* :twilightsheepish:

You did well humanizing (pony-izing?) Princess Twilight and Pinkamena in the last couple chapters...really giving some motivation behind their actions. I still want to know what caused the rift between the characters in the first place...but I'll be patient! :scootangel:

Good luck writing!

Wow. I can't believe someone still found this story after all the months it's been left here.
Anyway, I'm currently working on a different project, but maybe when the new year comes I can get something done for this. And some of my other stories.

Damn I'm lazy.

That's fair, sometimes finding that motivation to push through part of a story that doesn't particularly interest you is a paaaaaaaain. :ajbemused:

Still, I thought you should know that there is at least someone waiting patiently for this story. Good luck with your other projects, and hopefully I'll hear from this story again in the coming months. :pinkiesmile:

It's positive comments like that which give me inspiration to continue writing. I feel more motivated to finish writing these stories now. Who knows? If all goes well with my next 7 days of relative freedom I might even be able to update this by next week!

I wouldn't trust my predictions, though.

I can't wait for the next chapter, I bet it'll be the best one!:pinkiehappy:

:rainbowderp: Well, this was something. As much as it seems cliched to show Twilight as a future despot and everypony else as evil/jerkish/grimdark, you keep one hooked all the way through.

So, I'm guessing all of the Mane Six except Applejack (initially) got "discordified" in this timeline? And that Future Sight spell would have worn off if Twilight had waited longer, or did something else go wrong?
