The war between Canterlot and the Crystal Empire seems to have no end.
Every effort to counter or defeat King Sombra is stopped every time by a mysterious prince in charge of his army. Unknow to everypony, that same prince also knows everything that happens in Canterlot.
Can the Princesses and Twilight find his true identity before it's too late or will King Sombra and his dark prince achieve victory?

Twilight Sparkle wakes from a coma after being cursed by a stallion she doesn't remember ever meeting. Princess Celestia and Spike have been taking care of her while she was sleeping. But something is wrong, and Twilight’s memories don’t match up with anypony else's.

This is an AU story of my own twisted imagination. Set after “Games Ponies Play” but before “Magical Mystery Cure” timeline wise (sort of, you'll see). So no Alicorn Twilight here. Tagged Twilight and Celestia as they are the main characters, but other characters do appear in the story.

Descriptions are hard. Big thanks to my Pre-Readers Nakrab and Dumbgamer99!

-- Soft Story

Twilight is a mare of many trades. She prides herself on control, ambition and building solid friendships with those around her. A hero and a princess at the same time. Perhaps one of the greatest mares to ever live.

But when a fleeting crush returns on a certain mare, Twilight finds herself in a difficult emotional position. Especially when said crush is on somepony that she's known all her life but could never truly have. Somepony that's given her everything she could have dreamed of and more. Alas she knows it is not to be.

It would be improper. It would be wrong. It would be...unacceptable.......Or would it?

Wrote this after dealing with illness for a few days. My first Twilestia story. Probably one of the more emotional and fun ships I see out there and one of my favourites. My third foray into a romance fic.

Criticism is appreciated.

Hello reader,

If you’ve managed to find this notebook and can actually read this text, I dare say I’ve either been saved or I’m dead at this point. Ignore the blood and ink blotches on the pages, I can’t say I’m writing this in my best condition right now. But I’m getting ahead of myself…

First, let me introduce myself… My name is Twilight Sparkle, protege to Equestria’s Princess Celestia, the Eternal Sun. The year is 1004 ANM... Sometime in the summer or spring back in Equestria if my companion is correct.

Well… I guess I’ll tell you a little bit of how I got here. It started with a spell from Star Swirl the Bearded, one of Equestria’s greatest magicians. I cast his spell to seemingly no effect, but when I woke the next day, I had found every one of my friend’s cuties marks to have swapped. It took so much work, but I… we managed to fix it all, leading us back to the spell once again, and fixing it. Then…

Forgive me, I’m starting to smudge the ink- this has just been so much for me. It hurts to recall all these memories.

We cast the spell once again, a fixed version, one that should have finished it's actually purpose. I was surrounded in a blinding light, glyphs appearing around me as it carried me up. I could recognize a handful of them, projection runes, location markings, just to name a few. Then… everything went white

This story features quite a number of dark or gruesome scences. While not enough to be marked as a straight dark fiction, it does have horrific moments.

Drifting Away is an alternate universe story taking place after the events of season 3, up to the point of Twilight's alicorn transformation. All events are canon up to that point.

I would like to thank my wonderful collaborator LonelyLullaby for their support and help in writing and improving this work. I couldn't have done half of this without them.

Spike's happy world has always revolved around Twilight. From his hatching to their adventures in Ponyville, he has remained a faithful companion and loyal friend. But why is it that he has remained a baby for all of these years? There is so much about dragons that they do not know. In a rude awakening, Spike receives a letter from Princess Luna who promises to help Spike meet his potential. But how much will he change? Will his friends see him differently? And how will his life with Twilight evolve?

(set after season 4 and rainbow rocks).

Falconwolf has been shipped away to Equestria, was adopted and has a good family. But, when an unfamiliar being appears one day granting Falconwolf powers beyond imagination, he takes up the offer. Now it's many years later and he has become greedy and egotistical. When Twilight steps up to use a spell that could switch Falcon's emotions with another the soul was accidentally released and switched spots with a friendly human. In a world where humans are extinct and illegal, can Bryan Davis survive in his new life?

The holidays are fast approaching for the city of Canterlot. Snow is on the ground, carols fill the air, and the students of Canterlot High await release for winter vacation. However, its never peaceful in Canterlot for long. Right when things are looking calm, secrets start spilling around the school. With more being revealed each day, all eyes turn to Sunset Shimmer, the former bully of CHS. With the school turning against her and no clues to follow, can she possibly figure out the culprit and clear her name?

Of course she can. You know this story. At least, I assume you do. You're probably here because you want to see an alternate take on the event after all. A timeline can be altered drastically with nothing more than a single decision, just one choice, at the right place and time. So the proper question is: Can Sunset make it to her happy ending...and will the choice even be hers to start with?

So I'd like to give two quick shout-outs.
First one goes to Dainn for his wonderful tale, 'Anon-a-Miss'. It was the base inspiration for this little drabble of mine.
Second one to cerealkiller78 for her branching story, 'Silent Night', for more or less creating a sub-genre of a sub-genre and for the Dark tag on this story.
