This story is a sequel to Lone Wolf of Equestria; Battle for the Crystal Empire

Long ago in the land of Equestria, I, Celestia, the alicorn of the sun, unlocked a portal to an alternate dimension.

And a bold wolf wielding a powerful magic within, was pulled into my world.

When I was unwilling to send him home, he tore away from my kingdom, and flung himself into the wild, where chaos and disharmony are law.

Now the wolf seeks to return to his pack, and undo the mistakes of Celestia.

This story is a sequel to Spark Visions of Twilight

Before a story starts, characters move into position.

Before events get set in motion, there are reasons they're set in place.

Before destiny calls, ponies simply live their lives.

((These are six short stories about the mane six's lives before Spark Visions of Twilight began.
Though these are technically prequel stories, it is advised to read the main story first. This is simply to flesh out the backgrounds of the main characters a bit more.

When confronted by Sunset, Wallflower Blush realizes that absolutely nothing she does matters. Rather than lash out at Sunset's friends, she turns the Memory Stone on herself and completely erases her own mind.

This story is a sequel to Coinky-Dink World

Rosalina is not going to be available for this Valentine’s Day, as she has a special helicopter charter by a couple on their honeymoon. Since she’s going to be up all day, I’ve been told not to bother going to Hawaii. So, I’m heading the opposite direction.

Applejack was open to the idea of a meal date, so she accepts one, on Valentine’s Day, to my surprise. I know she was really into Chicago pizza, so Lou Malnati’s seems the perfect choice. Neither of us want to take this occasion too seriously, so a full steak dinner is virtually off the table, and because AJ’s not about that life. We’ll keep things simple then, Lou Malnati’s it shall be.

To help defuse any tension on either of our parts, Applejack has invited Twilight Sparkle to join us, who herself has a plus one because she can’t leave her guest hanging. The more the merrier, so it’s Valentines dinner for four!

Rated T for abrasiveness.

Spike was always different from other dragons. Sure, he still had many of the standard abilities of a dragon (such as flame breath and really tough scales), but he also liked reading more than other dragons did and didn't enjoy many of the same activities that gave other dragons pleasure. He was also adept in the field of alchemy. His only friend growing up was the Dragon Lord's daughter Ember.

Now, however, he has a chance to find out WHY he is different from other dragons, even if it means saying goodbye to his only friend. However, if he isn't like any other dragon, then what is he like?

Is there another out in the world like him or is he truly alone?

If he isn't alone, then where will this new path take him?

Many adventures with new friends and dangerous new enemies will give him the chance to find out, for better or for worse.

The only way to see where he will end up is to keep moving forward and never look back.

For a thousand years, Equestria has been too close to the sun. With the land rendered largely uninhabitable by the scorching heat, the ponies of Equestria have retreated into the sky. Now airships roam the clouds, severed mountaintops, held aloft by ancient and powerful magics, serve as the home for ponies everywhere and the land is mostly at peace.

But that peace is threatened when an ancient prophecy heralds the return of the one who caused all this change. Daybreaker. Princess Luna's older sister, imprisoned in the Sun for a thousand years, is about to return and, according to legend, burn the land to the ground.

Can the three students of the Princess defeat the mad empress? Or did Princess Luna's desperate use of the Elements only buy Equestria a thousand years of borrowed time? Either way, it will be an adventure for the history books.

So after reading Reformation ... It's a Pony Thing and Twilight's Pirate School, both by the wonderful Let's Do This, I realized that they effectively boiled down to the tagline 'My Little Pony - Everything is Better with Airships'. This story and, indeed, this setting are the result of my mind taking that idea and going wild with it.

This story is written in full and will not interfere with my other work. The sequel to Phoenix is still in progress and sadly taking a little longer than I had hoped, but it's coming.

Twilight Sparkle and her friends only intended to take a weekend trip to Hawaii. They never imagined that their weekend of fun would turn into thirteen long years of drama and tension.

Journey Island was never a popular tourist destination. Sapient storms protected the place from visitors, but the storms never really seemed to do their job. Everypony ended up dead or shipwrecked on the island.

No one ever escaped, either.

Except for eight.

In the past, Ponykind attempted to create alicorns, legendary creatures said to be like the goddesses themselves. But then, the War started, the goddesses vanished, and the constructs of science and magic turned their abilities on the living.

Now, years later, the world is struggling to pick up from where it left off, and the constructed alicorns are ingrained into everypony's mind as being soulless monsters. And despite the warring factions outside destroying what alicorns they come across, the Alicorn Project is still in operation.

In contrast to the outside world, for the new alicorns, life seems perfect. They're permitted to interact with each other, communicate with the Interface who acts as their teacher, and grow for Placement in a registered family they could call their own.

But one alicorn named Twilight, set to be placed with the Sparkle family, struggles with questions. Why her family-to-be seems so protective of her. Why the Interface refuses to tell her everything.

And why everyone refuses to let her go Outside.

King Sombra has returned and twilight must go in the past and figure out why he became who he is. Though things are a little different and twilight changes history... but is for the better.

Also please respect the original writer of the cover I did not ask them to make this I just found it

The world is falling apart at the seams, and there isn't any time. Those in the right place at the right time must make their choices in the final moments.
