In this universe, Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle were best buddies since they were fillies (though Sunset was older than Twilight), bonding over their shared obsession with studying. But all that changed when Twilight had to do the entrance exam, which ended as well as one expected it to. But rather than be accepted this time, she was rejected...but not for long. Meanwhile, Sunset has the unenviable task of looking over the preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration and "make some friends".

NOTE: While this story has the comedy tag, that's more to do with some early life shenanigans as well as Pinkie Pie being Pinkie Pie. I can assure you that it will get darker as it goes on.
Why isn't there an alternate universe tag?

If it helps, I'm updating it on a biweekly basis.

Hmm....Actually that really helps, I was kiiinda getting worried but that explains alot. Thanks!
Cute story so far!
That's because he is a fraking lich. He knows dark magic, he's functionally ageless, and on top of that, no blood spilled when he ripped off his leg, which means his blood doesn't flow, which means his heart's not beating! Why even call him alive when he better fits the term undead?
Why does everyone call Twilight Celestia's protégé anyways? It's always struck me as a bit odd, because there are so many other terms for what she is. Student and pupil work well, as does apprentice, since she's learning magic and all. Acolyte would also kind of work, since the fans tend to see Princess Celestia as a goddess and when Twilight does channel the Magic of Friendship into an orbital laser cannon, it seems more like divine magic than arcane magic.
Something's going to go down at Pony Joe's place in the next chapter. I can feel it.

Probably because "apprentice" and "acolyte" make her sound like she is a Sith in training.

Who said she couldn't be? I'm sure a smart cookie like her would have no trouble seeing through the lies of the Jedi.

And then she'd bring peace, freedom, justice and security to her new empire.
I just couldn't help but imagine this theme playing as Kain is fighting Twilight & co. for some reason.
5/6 vs. 1 and he still manages to be tough? Kain is a Final Fantasy boss for sure.

I was actually listening to this while writing Twilight's first encounter with Kain:

...That makes sense. I'm guessing Twilight's going to become Batman now that her parents are dead. A sort of Final Fantasy Batman, you could say. Or maybe that's just my bad ideas running away with themselves again.
10102829
Unlikely but I do intend on her paraphrasing a Batman quote at some point.

Because protégé is someone who is looked after and protected by their mentor, they also live with them, something that is shown in the show.

Yeah, putting references in my fics is a habit of mine.
You need an editor bad. The only reason I’m still reading is because the story has me intrigued

I actually do have an editor.
the7Saviors edited the story for me.
That said, I'm glad you like the story so far.
10192805
Well, no offense, but he’s not very good
Is this the story with the OC in it that "hates the world?"
10245779
Don't think so but I suppose Kain is kinda close to fitting that description.
So whens the brotherhood of nod showing up

Sad to say, he's not that Kain.
