It's Cozy Glow's birthday! While her mother, Chrysalis, gets her ready, her father, Tirek, and uncle, Sombra, prepare the party.

What a great day it would be for the villains!

This story is a sequel to Flurry Heart's Story: Elements Assemble!

Tirek, Cozy Glow and Chrysalis wake up to find that their stone statue has been broken and they have been set free. After narrowly escaping the Canterlot guards, they discover they have been asleep for over eight years and immediately start plotting revenge. While Chrysalis desires to rebuild her changeling army, Tirek is tired of Equestria and just wants to return to the Midnight Kingdom to confront Scorpan. Cozy is still angered with Discord, Celestia, and Luna and desires something else very personal. After a long argument, all three of them agree they can no longer continue their alliance and part ways.

This story takes place during the events of my earlier fanfiction "Elements Assemble" and is part of my series called Flurry Heart's Story.

I wasn't the most consistent fan of My Little Pony, in all honesty. In fact that show wasn't the only thing on my list of interests. For a long while I had left those colorful ponies in the dust. I practically missed seasons 7-8 because I had gotten bored. However... it was the last season that drew me back in. I guess I now know a bit about the show, but not everything. I definitely knew of Cozy Glow however. She was hated by everyone. Well, except me. For some reason I liked her as the mischievous little filly she was. Her character interested me and I wanted to learn more. I wanted to see what kind of history she had. Why did she decide to turn evil? She was probably the only reason I went back to previous seasons.

You could guess how disappointed I was when the finale came up. Instead of helping her, they turned her to stone. Instead of trying to figure out the issue, they left her behind to be forgotten. Everyone cheered and laughed while Cozy, Chrysalis, and Tirek were turned into statues for the rest of eternity. I was displeased. Afterwards I drifted away and instead tried to focus on my work. I had to, after all. I was becoming an adult. I was growing up. Though the stress might pile up on me, I had to keep going. I had to get things done...

I could keep going... couldn't I?

It seems however that the universe had decided to drag me back into a world of rainbows and magic. Imagine my surprise when I suddenly woke up the next day inside a cage in the deepest, darkest chambers of Tartarus. Not only that but also as the small pink bundle of feathers that everyone loathed and despised. A billion questions rang through my head but the most prominent ones of all continuously pounded against my skull: What in the holy hell do I do from here?
And how do I stop what comes next?

Ever since Grogar brought Tirek, Cozy Glow, and Queen Chrysalis together, they haven't spent a lot of time doing evil like they wanted. In fact, Grogar mostly has them hanging out in a cave underground. With the boredom that comes with it, the three of them have to find ways to pass the time.

Written for the Cozy Glow contest.

Released from Tartarus, Cozy Glow now spends her days doing community service to make up for her past crimes. However, in your troubles, she discovered something...something that may reveal a fate worse than even Hell itself...bad writing. Could this really be the ending of the end? Or is it just the beginning of the ending of the ending of the end?

Written for the Cozy Glow Short Story Contest

Prompt: Cozy's got a secret!

If you could peer into the future, and see the exact cause, and time of your demise, how would that change your life? What if you saw the future and learned that that day was today? That's the dilemma Cozy Glow is faced with in this alternative version of the Ending of the End. In a dark twist, she uses Discord's chaos magic to take a peek into the future, and catches an early glimpse of her devastating defeat. Is there a way to prevent this horrible future from coming to fruition? Or is Cozy destined to an eternity of suffering? What does it take to make the change?

My second entry for the Cozy Glow Short Story Contest

Prompt: Cozy’s got a secret! Whether or not it’s hers is for her to know and you to find out.

Being trapped in stone doesn't give a little filly much to do. She has a lot of anger and regrets over her situation, but the one thing she misses the most was the love and comfort of her first, and perhaps only, friend.

This story is posted for Short Story Cozy Glow contest of 2020.

At the request of the three villains he is holding captive in Grogar's old lair, Discord is forced to make a trip to the fast food giant that is McDonald’s.

All over three little Happy Meals.

Non-listed tags include: Romance (brief, due to some Chrysalis X Tirek shipping) and Dark (which will be rare but occasional).

It's one thing to come back to Equestria after a long time. It's another thing entirely when your brother's been turned to stone.

That's what Scorpan will go through, returning to Equestria one month after Twilight's coronation. He heard the stories of what happened to Tirek, and he has to find out for himself if they're true. When he sees it with his own eyes, he has no choice but to ask himself a lot of questions...and none of them might have an easy answer.
