Sometimes letting go of your past mistakes can be rather difficult especially when you start to remember every single of your past sins that you've committed. Something that Tempest Shadow isn't very good at handling. To make things rather worse, with her friends trying to help her to move on with her life, she'll soon realize it'll take more than a miracle to let go of the past and to forget about the events that occurred on that day.

Through thick and thin Princess Twilight Sparkle and her friends have defeated whatever fate could throw at them, but only just. It's time for a new strategy to secure Equestria's safety. Now that the Storm King has been defeated, it will take all of Twilight's nerve and cunning to stop his Commanders from achieving their ultimate goal: World Domination.

An attempt at playing war straight with the show. Canon up to Season 7, the Movie, and some of the IDW comics.

Spoilers for MLP Movie ahead, you've been warned.

...

After a long and perilous journey, as well as an intense final confrontation, Twilight has managed to secure the staff... and finds herself trapped in a raging storm.

Yet to everyone else on the ground below, she was only gone for less than a minute before returning perfectly unscathed and even happy. Did she simply use the staff to calm the storm?

Or... did something else happen as well?

...

Just a simple one-shot to illustrate my take on the movie's theme and moral. No relation or connection to any of my other stories.

After the Storm King's defeat, the Friendship Festival was finally able to start. The Mane 6 are finally able to say goodbye to the new friends they made on their journey.

Major spoilers for My Little Pony: The Movie

Tempest Shadow was forgiven, and assigned to Twilight Sparkle's personal guard. Another villain reformed, another new friend for Equestria.

Another villain who didn't face justice.

The Noble Court has finally had enough, and has gathered together to form an inquiry into Celestia's reasoning for letting so many villains off the hook. The time has come to have the Princess of the Sun reveal why she's let so many of Equestria's most dangerous threats off of the hook.

They have to be careful, as Celestia has hooks of her own.

What was the rest of Equestria doing while the Friendship Council sought the aid of the Hippogriffs during those 3 fateful days? This is the story of the unsung heroes of the land, for without their aid, it could have been a lot more worse...

Princess twilight and Princess Celestia make tempest twilights personal guard but tempest thinks she is helpless and pathetic and that princess twilight is doing this out the of petty of her broken horn so she vowed to make herself worthy of the title but what tempest doesn’t know is that there’s a surprise awaiting her.

Thanks for B-25 and Tempest_Flare for proofreading my story.

It's Spa Day, and Tempest Shadow has been invited!

It's not like she can't remember the last time she relaxed or anything.

Nope.

A retelling of my first (failed) attempt at a Canterlot Wedding AU known as Sympathy For Lady Vengeance, this new story combines the narrative and thematic elements of The Power of the Equinox by Shaded Blood, The Forgotten and Exiled by Slice141, and The Twilight Citadel by Pyrestrike. The main story is akin to The Magnificent Seven (1960), while the sense of scope is reminiscent of Star Wars (1977) and Lawrence of Arabia (1962).

When Twilight is banished from the wedding, she discovers an even bigger threat approaching on the horizon known only as The Storm King. Because her friends and family don't believe it her in the slightest, she decides to unite an alliance to fight the threat before it even arrives. However, they are eventually forced to travel beyond Equestria in search of aid. So, A Canterlot Wedding Meets My Little Pony: The Movie (2017).

The central cast is listed below:
― "The Team":
• Twilight Sparkle (voiced by Tara Strong): The leader of the group, Twilight Sparkle is the (former) apprentice of Princess Celestia who attempts to save Equestria from the forces of evil.
• Sunset Shimmer (voiced by Rebecca Shoichet): The second-in-command, Sunset Shimmer is the first (former) apprentice of Princess Celestia who is forced to assist her former master's current apprentice save the world.
• Starlight Glimmer (voiced by Kelly Sheridan): A pony who strives for conformity over individualism, Starlight Glimmer decides to help Twilight in hopes of stealing her cutie mark.
• Trixie Lulamoon (voiced by Kathleen Barr): A street magician whose tricks may seem more cunning than they appear, Trixie seeks fame and joins Twilight's team in order to do so. Of course, fate is a harsh mistress; when she meets Starlight, she must chose fame...or friendship.
• Photo Finish (voiced by Tabitha St. Germain): A famous photographer from Manehattan,
Photo Finish, much like Trixie before her, seeks to elevate her fame, but she soon gets more than she bargained for.
• Lightning Dust (voiced by Britt Irvin): An aspiring Wonderbolt with a penchant for competition and recklessness, Lightning Dust seeks not only to send her fame skyrocketing, but to become the strongest pony of them all. Of course, this proves easier said than done.
• Apple Cobbler (voiced by Ashleigh Ball): A baker and former cater for the wedding reception alongside Applejack, Apple Cobbler is the only pony who genuinely accepts Twilight's call for help.
― "The Supporting Cast":
• Tempest Shadow (voiced by Emily Blunt): The loyal and fierce henchman to the Storm King, Tempest Shadow stands beside and serves him in the hopes of repairing her broken horn.
• Grubber (voiced by Michael Peña): A wisecracking hedgehog-like creature, Grubber serves as the cohort of Tempest Shadow, bowing to her every whim.
• The Storm King (voiced by Liev Schreiber): The absolutist, satyr-like creature who can control the weather with his staff, The Storm King is not the main antagonist of the story, but instead the Greater Scope Villain of the saga.
• Dusk Shine (voiced by Tom Holland): A young unicorn who is mysteriously granted with Pegasus wings, Dusk Shine is a crew member of Captain Celaeno after his family disowns him.
• Dawn Cracker (voiced by Olivia Holt): A young unicorn who is a big fan of Twilight Sparkle, Dawn Cracker bears an uncanny resemblance to her idol and is more than happy when she requests her assistance on saving the world.
• Captain Colleen Celaeno (voiced by Karen Gillan): A humanoid parrot and the apathetic captain of a band of pirate misfits, Captain Colleen Celaeno may be much more jaded than her older sister Cataleya...explaining her refusal to help Twilight Sparkle at first glance.
• Catrina (voiced by Judy Greer): An anthropomorphic alley cat and cunning yet goodhearted con artist, Catrina has trouble stepping away from her criminal influence. She partially (and we mean mostly) blames her problem on her former flame Nick.

Yes, some of the characters from the movie don't actually appear, but they are mentioned and will in later installments. Also, fair warning: some of the characters may use firearms.

Celestia feels as though she isn't as intimidating or helpful in a fight as she once was, and neither is her sister, so she devises a plan to become formidable again. The four Princesses will train intensely for six months, and Rainbow Dash of all ponies will be in charge of the whole thing, the powers of some of the greatest ponies in history at her hooves, including a former commander of the Storm King's army and the great sorcerer Starswirl the Bearded. What could possibly go wrong?

(Due to the scope of this story it focuses on a lot more characters than are tagged.)
