When a consistent anomaly is located in the futuristic K-Project network, a hacker decided to check it out. Soon after, he finds himself dealing with issues in two worlds at once, while they cascade upon each other and this "magic" thing from the other world begins to leak through the boundaries.

Don't forget to read the author notes, especially chapter 1. Feedback is appreciated.

Chapters with two-letter tags next to the numbers can be considered sidestories, but all are important to the story as a whole, and they tend to interweave. The only real difference is where the action takes place and with who. Despite what was written in this paragraph originally, DO NOT SKIP especially later on.

If I link to a music video (YouTube video with music) in-story, I highly recommend you listen to it, whether you watch it or not. If there are lyrics as in people singing, you need to listen to it in the background or already know the song to know what's going on. Otherwise, you miss out, and I don't want that to happen. Probably neither do you.

The Tantibus.
Almost no-one knows its true purpose.
To torment.
To hurt.
To remind.
So what happens when such a thing escapes its confines? When a creature born on pain and Nightmares escapes into the Dreamscape?
Simple really, you play a game.
Princess Luna, Twilight Sparkle and Flare Blitz enter the Dreamscape and find themselves playing the Tantibus’ game. And they’re not the only ones.
A group of humans that use the Dreamscape as a game are caught up as well. Rez and his friends are about to play a game like none other.
Because, this Nightmare knows how to fight back...

This story is a crossover between stories written by Ausbrony and NiGHTcapD. It is written by both writers in direct collaboration with each other.

Recommended prereadings:
Ausbrony's A Pony out of Place and Flames and Twilight, up to (and beyond) the latter's Games Ponies Play
NiGHTcapD's Rez: Eqstr[Tera] up to WH4

The past always comes back to haunt the present, there is no escaping the inevitable. For decades, Celestia has kept a secret from her student. A secret she made out of pain, and through pain will be revealed for all to see; for Twilight Sparkle is the secret daughter of the Sun.

Now, there will be consequences.

Consequences, they come in all shapes and sizes for every decision. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. These words are lessons that Princess Celestia should know, bits of wisdom she practices in her rule of Equestria. How is it then, that when faced with a decision, she chooses the one that would inevitably bring the most pain? How is it that she couldn’t bear being recognized as the mother of her child? And why? Twilight Sparkle is about to find out.

Also this story got Featured, a lot... thanks everyone xD

A mother will do a lot for her child, even give them up if it meant them having a safer life growing up, despite the obvious pain that comes for the parent.

That pain is something Queen Chrysalis has gone through for eighteen years, but now the time is upon them, and she wants her daughter back. Even if that means invading Canterlot during a royal wedding.

Twilight wakes up after a failed experiment and quickly discovers just what that failure did to her.

Will she be able to function in her new form long enough to find the counter spell, or will she go crazy before she gets the opportunity?

Can she handle being a carnivore in a town of herbivores?

Twilight could not have been more ecstatic to have a magic student of her own. Not only was Entropy kind, but he completely understood and even shared her love of learning. An entire month working alongside him was a dream come true. But when admiration turns into something else, she may be unprepared for the consequences.

Discord despises the thought of an entire month as a pony. No chaos magic, and he has to keep his true identity a secret. Stuck with the insufferable know it all Twilight Sparkle was a fate worse than death. Or was it? As time passes, the once tiresome mare had become almost pleasant to be around. Could he actually be falling for her?

The entire story takes place in my own universe and continues the summer after What Changes May Come ends. Elements from that story as well as my parallel fic An Honest Life are included here. There is no need to read either to enjoy this one, though I encourage you to check them out. Essentially the events are canon until the middle of season 4.

This is one story I never thought I would be able to write. I had been wanting to compose a Twicord fic, but had no idea how to get a good setup. The idea for this fic came from SageBrony07 who's also been instrumental in the idea for many of the chapters.

I can't say thank you enough to Nomad_Sigma as well. He's been such a big help with the last leg of the story, editing my ramblings along with being the best idea man a girl could ask for!

Prereading for certain chapters provided by Nomad_Sigma and SageBrony07. Proofreading by
Smaug the golden, TemplarBrony, The Forgotten Comrade, and viewers like you.

It takes an army, that's all I've got to say.

For years, Twilight Sparkle and Queen Chrysalis have been at each other's throats. Both have experienced victory over the other, and both have experienced defeat. Out of all the creatures in Equestria, none despise each other the way the pony Princess and changeling Queen do. They seemed destined to remain locked in battle forever, or at least until one is finally dead at the hooves of the other. The cruel insults, the vicious loathing, and the powerful spells that have passed back and forth between them at each meeting have become the stuff of legend.

Imagine Twilight's surprise when she finds out changelings consider this dating.

And now they're married.

Some beautiful fanart of the end of chapter three was done by Dmann892; you can see it here.

More awesome fanart, this time from chapter one.

Now with a TvTropes page (obligatory TvTropes warning goes here).

If you want a Russian translation, you can find it here.

There is now a reading of the story on Youtube, which starts here.

Twilight Sparkle has spent months researching chaos magic, developing a new spell to unlock magic nopony has ever experienced before. But when something goes wrong with casting, Twilight finds herself turned into a Draconequus and unable to control her new chaos magic. If she ever wants to be a pony again, there is only one who can help her learn to control her new magic.

Of course, learning from Discord was never going to be simple. And after a while, being a draconequus doesn't seem so bad anyway....
