Chrysalis is miserable. The swarm is scattered, her hopes are dashed by defeat, and her royal rump is freezing off in these mountains.

The only thing that could make this worse is a baby drone who wants a bedtime story.

It was supposed to be a routine flight over the desert, just a relaxing trip to stretch his wings out. He'd done it a thousand times before.

This time, it wasn't so routine.

Sex tag is for innuendo. No clop.

Part of the Hellpiercer 'verse, but knowledge of that story is not required. Reading the direct prequel How to Hug a Five-Hundred-Foot Tall Dragon is advisable, however.

She saw her, tumbling to earth. She heard the crack of horn on stone. She listened to the staccato beeps of hospital monitors. When will she wake up? Will she wake up? Will she ever forgive Rainbow for failing?

This story is a sequel to Bring Them Back

Twilight tried to put everything back the way it was; her old friends rose from the grave, her old dragon now sits on her back again, a baby once more. But some things always change. Her actions in the Everfree have consequences, and as she emerges from the forest, she will discover a new Equestria, held captive by the perilous Wilder. Airships patrol the skies and artillery rings out in the night. This is not how it should be.

Twilight's journey to set things right will take her through the wilderness, over stormy mountains, and
into the treacherous Black Zones, but she will not go alone. With Spike by her side and her friends in her heart, Twilight will do what it takes to save Equestria.

Five thousand years have come and gone since Twilight took the crown and became an alicorn. The centuries have not been kind to her; they took away her friends, one by one, till only she is left, an immortal ruling an eternal kingdom.

Now, even her memories are fading, her recollections slipping as she struggles to recall the only happy days in her life, the Pinkie Pie parties that ended too soon, the sound of a certain pegasus's voice.

Twilight Sparkle wants them back. And there is one spirit she thinks might be able to help her.
