With an obscure evil on the horizon, the princesses must act fast. Twilight obviously thinks she's the best choice, but Celestia chooses to send Discord instead! Twilight must prove her worth, so she turns her attention to the chest from the Tree of Harmony.

In order to open it, she needs six keys. All of her friends have found mysterious, shiny objects, but she has yet to find one of her own. Thus begins her quest.

This might also need a Comedy tag.

Twilight and her friends complete their greatest journey yet, and gain the amazing Rainbow Power in the process.

But all is not what it seems. Something is about to go horribly wrong. And when it's over...

Who will pay the price?

Written prior to the title of Twilight's Kingdom being announced, let alone the episode being aired.

Scootaloo always has that strange warm fuzzy feeling whenever she hangs out with her.
Same goes for Apple Bloom.

A short story about waiting, hay fries, and the dangers of space and silence in matters of the heart.

Having qualified for the Aerial Relay event, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Bulk Biceps and their friends travel to the Crystal Empire to participate in the Equestria Games alongside four other teams. Honour, glory and gold are at stake as the ponies prepare to take up their positions. But after Rainbow Dash accidentally bumps into an old acquaintance before the performance, strange things begin to happen.

What unseen trials will the trio of teammates face on the event grounds and skies? Which threatening series of events will occur involving the audience and Rainbow's friends? And what was that barely-discernible streak of brown high up in the clouds? Most importantly, what is the ultimate motive behind these seemingly unrelated incidents?

Twilight Sparkle has come down with the Feather Flu a day before The Trader Exchange at Rainbow Falls, which always requires a princess to attend to oversee the trading.

With Celestia, Luna, and Cadance having to attend to business in the Crystal Empire the day of the Exchange, their options are stretched rather thin.

That is unless a reformed chaotic god can fill Princess Twilight's position...

After changing their legal status from three individual ponies to one alicorn princess, the Cutie Mark Crusaders take it upon themselves to oversee the Rainbow Falls Trade Exchange, but quickly go mad with power and nonsense.

The Power Ponies are coming again.

Another escape from custody, another scheme to take over Maretropolis, and another chance for the Power Ponies to defeat her. Such is the cycle that Mane-iac has endured for as long as she can remember.

And she's sick of it. She's sick of all of it. Now on the cusp of one more battle with her nemeses, she can only think of how much she has sacrificed for the city in her battles against the Power Ponies, and how much more she can take.
