This storyline is part of the Hole Hearted Universe in tone and spirit.

Trixie travels the roads of Equestria frequently. Throughout her adventures she has learned how to defend herself against various creatures and thieves. This particular encounter is a little more than she's used to dealing with, but there's another pony she crosses paths with that is willing to lend a hoof.

What happens when a mare turns herself into a living weapon? A villain is born who struck terror in Equestria's heart, conquered the land, and proved unstoppable until faced with the true magic of Friendship. But she faced Friendship, and though she accepted it she is still a mare feared across the world. What does one do with such a mare? Twilight's answer is simple: Let her fight an army. Its no good to let one's skills dull, after all.

An unrepentant excuse to write Tempest facing down overwhelming numbers. Because I find the idea of someone that flashy and skilled in combat being thrown against ever increasingly ridiculous opponents to be endlessly amusing, and I could use the practice writing fight scenes. If you've ever wanted to see what happens when someone mixes the recent Wonder Woman movie's fight scenes with Devil May Cry level cockiness, come right in.

Sequel

Darksymphony did a read of the rewritten chapter here

During one of her many passion projects, Twilight decides to try and track down the origins of magic and where everypony came from. Her library is chock full of various different theories, none of them very helpful. She decides, instead, to ask Princess Celestia.

However, the answer she gets is far more absurd than she bargained for. An answer so detached from reality that it takes a physical manifestation of it to show Twilight the extent of the terrifying source of magic and what it did to a once-benign world to render it and its inhabitants so fantastical.

"You were never the first ones here, nor were you the second. We were the second."

Now on EqD!

The Rainbooms attempt to go through airport security with their geodes on. Only one of them get through trouble-free. (Guess who...?)

A series of short drabbles on the Equestria Girls’ adventures through airport security. Dedicated to the day we can all travel by air again.

Time travel is not a simple case of following someone back to stop them from committing whatever evil deeds they plan on. To stop a change to the past, one must prevent the traveler from going there in the first place.

Twilight and Spike failed to do this, but that's okay.

Discord has been in these lands long before they became Equestria. He has seen kingdoms rise and fall, and countless generations of ponies pass him by. Unbeknownst to everypony else, he had more of an impact on history than just what his powers have done.

All of this and more comes to light during a late-night conversation between him and his wife, Fluttershy.

Sex tag is for minor references and talks of parenthood.

Written for a contest between friends.

So when two, yet not quite humans appear in Twilight's castle, she finds herself taking on a new role. From the Queen of Equestria to adoptive mother. However, that's not going to be easy, and she finds herself wanting to kill whoever made these kids like this. Namely, half-starved and just that wee bit paranoid of those around them.

Yeah, whenever she finds this 'Shadow Weaver' she's going to banish her to the moon. And probably this Hordak as well.

Or the one where Twilight adopts kid Catra and Adora and becomes the mother figure they sorely needed. And probably blows up the Evil Horde in the process.

Having known Rainbow Dash for as long as she has, Fluttershy would be naturally inclined to think she has her childhood companion pretty well figured out. But, let it never be said we can't find things about our friends that take us aback from time to time.

When the Friendship Map summons Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy to the dusty town of Paxton Junction, it'll take some encouragement and luck for an unlikely hero to win the day.
