Chrysalis, the last Queen of the changelings, is dying. With her death, her children will die, and the changelings will cease. She has one final plan, a coup to save her race, her children. She must make a new Queen, one strong enough, and smart enough, to save her people. It will be her legacy, and her greatest achievement. Too bad she never asked Twilight if she wanted to help

Dark tag added just to be safe, but its a "light dark" if that even exists.

After unexpectedly being freed during a Changeling invasion, Discord finds himself allying with the Queen of the Changelings and the Mare of the Moon. In a bid to weaken their enemies, they take the element of magic, Twilight Sparkle, as a prisoner. Twilight then finds herself becoming a pawn each of them wants to use to secure their own dominance.

Will she be able to resist these beings of darkness, or will she fall into the darkness herself?

Right before the big Canterlot Wedding, Twilight Sparkle makes a 'false' accusation against 'Princess Cadence.' Abandoned by her friends, teacher, and brother, the heartbroken pony experiences conflicting feelings of guilt and anger. Seizing this opportunity, Chrysalis takes in the fragile unicorn as her protege for her plan to plunge Equestria in darkness and chaos. With the Elements useless and the world being torn apart, how can Princess Celestia and the Elements possibly undo the damage they could've so easily prevented? And will Twilight be able to push away the darkness, or lose herself to it?

Note: Alternate Universe because of a few....'secrets' certain characters have, as well as obvious other reasons.

The newest story of mine, and a bit of a special in the spirit of Halloween. The premise behind it being; what if the Dark Magic Twilight used at the beginning of Season 3 had side effects, side effects that have not had any noticeable effect on her until recently? What if King Sombra, a powerful Dark Magic user, wasn't entirely defeated by Twilight and Company? What will become of Twilight and her friends? I won't spoil it, but I'll tell you it likely won't be a happy ending for anyone involved.

After a few days of business, Twilight goes to the Canterlot library to unwind and study, but as she prepares to leave, she finds herself locked inside of a reading room. At first she assumes it is the act of an aspiring prankster, but as stranger and stranger things happen, she begins to question the likelihood.

Twilight Sparkle has been in Ponyville for just over seven years and is left to do her own research and conduct her own projects by herself. Her very first project seems to be about to boost Equestria several giant leaps into the future, or perhaps it'll only drag Twilight back further.

Authors Note: When writing dark, you can only watch and wonder how deep the rabbit hole can go. Also, this story is written in a different format than others, so it may seem quite odd... Hell, it seems odd to me and I'm writing it.
