Chrysalis' invasion lasts only a whopping five seconds before she surrendered. All according to plan.

This was a request for a patron and was viewable earlier for said patrons. Head over here if you want a story like this for 5$ or to see stories early for just 3$!

This is also the next of my 12 days of requests where you will see a new story requested by a patron every day until Christmas day so make sure to stop by every day for new stuff! Check out the previous story here

Mandibles "Mandy" Carapace hated Queen Chrysalis.

He hated her hare-brained schemes, he hated her commanding and dominating nature, and he especially hated her unending arrogance.

So, when the Canterlot Invasion failed and he was sent careening into Ponyville, he felt no particular rush to return to her.

Author's note: Contains Romance, but there aren't enough tags to include it, so I chose Drama over Romance (because the Drama is the main theme of the story, while the Romance is a side-plot that feeds into said Drama).

And now, I've also added the "Alternate Universe" tag, because of the stuff involving Mothra and Chrysalis.

Sequel is here.

During Parent Teacher Confercence Day, Discord shows up and adds a little fun to the day by giving Spike and Smolder poison joke.

Cherry Berry is an earth pony. Sometimes. And that's not the least of her problems; her insomnia is getting worse, and she can't keep her secret to herself any longer.

EDIT: Likely to get a second chapter soon, as people have asked for one.

In the Royal Canterlot Gardens a statue cracks as an old enemy starts to regain consciousness. She can't remember much at first but soon memories flow back to her. Now if only she can remember her name.

Believing it to be an easy job, two thieves broke into Princess Twilight Sparkle's castle. With no Royal Guards protecting the castle and Twilight herself gone, her valuable possessions were as good as theirs.

Or so they thought.

Last but far from least, special thanks to Little Tigress for drawing the great cover art.

Starlight decided not to skip out on Twilight's tea with Princess Celestia, Trixie does not take it well and lets it slip her intentions.

Sonata Dusk separated from the other Dazzlings and ended up in Equestria herself. Twilight found her and managed to not only reform her (somewhat) but has fallen in love with her as well. Now Twilight deals with a marefriend who is a bit like Pinkie Pie but keeps suggesting they take over Equestria together.

I did say that she was reformed somewhat, didn’t I?

Time travel is not a simple case of following someone back to stop them from committing whatever evil deeds they plan on. To stop a change to the past, one must prevent the traveler from going there in the first place.

Twilight and Spike failed to do this, but that's okay.

Fluttershy has a problem: she keeps waking up with strange dreams. What has been going on? And what is that delicious metallic taste upon her tongue?

Warning: Contains Flutterbat and Silliness. Consult a Doctor if pain persists.

Supporting Cast: Rarity, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Celestia and Luna.
