Mary Trottings is a unicorn foal living in Bridlewood. She has a dark green coat, an orangish-red mane and tail, done into pigtails, and slightly lighter shaded orange eyes with no cutie mark. She's a bit of an introvert and much prefers to be alone and by herself. She also hangs out at an abandoned house after school sometimes and today was just one such day in the fall, as the leaves rustled on the forest floor and there was nothing else to do in town... But she didn't expect to meet another pony there...

It was nearly one thousand years ago that Opaline Arcana defeated Princess Twilight Sparkle and her friends. Her plan had succeeded, and the three ponykinds were split, their bonds broken. However, the ordeal left Opaline drained of her magic. If she revealed herself too soon, everything would have been for naught. She had a castle, but she couldn't leave.

While she still had her followers, there was one major issue: She is immortal, and they were not. Thus, she was eventually the only one left, and she required an assistant. Unfortunately, enchantments will only get a pony so far, and wild creatures aren't exactly reliable. While a young unicorn mare named Misty Brightdawn would come to her a few years before she would finally get her chance to return to the public eye, there were hundreds of years where very little happened.

However, about sixty of those years are an exception. Those were the years that she found herself with something she never expected.

A companion. A human companion.

Twilight Sparkle and her friends have been model Equestrian citizens for years. After finally reuniting with Twilight, their lives were given real meaning. They’d become heroes; Equestria’s protectors, but the girls have always had bigger plans for the kingdom. Now the wedding of Shining Armor draws near, everything is about to come out into the open. Of course, there will always be those whom resist.

What's the one thing you never expect to happen. Get famous? Get rich? Get powerful? How about getting sent to a magical TV land, with a new body and powers to go with it, and then getting stoned for doing the right thing merely because your powers are dark? So hi, my name is now Oleander, and I have a calamity to stop.

I just got Them's Fighting Herds and really loved the character of Oleander, and since I have been reading displaced fics recently, I might try at one of them. Though I don't know whether this will turn into a normal story among the way, but just with the displaced background.

This story is a sequel to Sunny at Midnight

Dating hasn't been particularly easy for the likes of Midnight Sparkle and Sunny Flare.

One was an almighty entity of magic created by Twilight after being overcharged by magic, who could easily destroy the fabric of reality.

The other was a Crystal Prep student with an attitude.

If that wasn't bad enough, they could only date during The Witching Hour, between 12 at midnight and 1 AM.

During one of these nights, Midnight realizes she can't keep doing this forever, so to try and fix this, she asks for help from the most unexpected sources: Carousel Boutique.

More specifically, her old bully, Nightmare Rarity.

Marianne Evergold is a kind-hearted girl with strange tastes, for she's the only person she knows whose favorite character is... Diamond Tiara. Snotty, bratty, childish, and vain? Perhaps. But she adored her all the same. The confidence with which Tiara carried herself was something she never had. In her eyes, Tiara was truly graceful and picturesque. And while she understood that drama needed a conspirator and Tiara was just the natural calling card for the show's writers, she never liked the idea that she was truly evil. So when the show ended its last season with her being turned to stone for her years of villainy and almost bringing Equestria to ruin... Mary could not accept it.

The only thing she could never understand was... why did they never give her a proper redemption? It always felt like they would. Yet they never did. And if by some miracle they ever did, she would never get to see it.

For she finds she awakes one day in the lands of the colorful Equestria. Far from home. So very far from friends. And so, so very far from family.

And in the horseshoes of Diamond Tiara herself, no less.

But at least she has a goal now. To save Tiara from that fate. Already with a history of bad blood halfway into the show, it would be no easy feat to redeem her as no one would allow her the opportunity after many years of treachery. But Mary vowed to never give up on Diamond Tiara and would keep to her promise come what may.

All while Tiara herself sat back silently in her mind, sealed from being able to take control of her own body again and watching it all unfold.

Growing up in Skyros, Opaline has always felt like the odd one out. Though she is an alicorn, she is ostracized by the only two other alicorns she knows: Celestia and Luna. Still grieving over the recent loss of her parents and desperate for acceptance and friendship, Opaline tries to win the approval of the princesses, who only turn up their noses at her.

Soon, the innocence in Opaline’s heart gives way to a darkness that will change everything.

Kevin E. Levin, after gaining his freedom from that damned Incarcecon, finds himself at a lost. He lost the only man (alien, whatever) who had shown him any compassion in a very long time. He promised Kwarrel that he'd escape the Null Void... He just didn't expect it to happen so soon...

Move over Ben! It's time for Kevin to be in the spotlight!

(I feel like I must say that this is my first fanfic so please go a little easy on me heh)

Prequel Sunset at War out now!

Fate and prophesy can be funny things. Sometimes harmony and magic can be a bit unpredictable.

Starswirl's last prophecy was unclear as the greatest spell caster of his day had notoriously bad horn-writing and was equally bad at only writing down half of what he saw in visions.

For generations Princess Celestia has been subtly manipulating the lives of her ponies for generations, using a combination of Starswirl's prophesies and her own foresight to get the outcome she wanted. But she forgot the three most important rules about trying to manipulate future events: 1) The future is like a river. It follows its own currents and makes its own path. 2) The future is always in motion and is next to impossible to predict with any certainty. 3) The very act of viewing the future changes it.

This story is an AU from the main MLP:FiM starting with a deviation from the episode Magical Mystery Cure.

It all started with a single question: What if it was the Mane 6 that became alicorns and not just Twilight?

It's rated T for mild violence.
