"So... you weren't going to tell me?" The pink pegasus had tears in her eyes, feeling like a tiny filly again as she looked up at her mother.

"Dearest..." There was sorrow in Queen Haven's eyes, and Pipp didn't even need to hear what she'd say next. She already knew she was right. But her mother spoke anyway. "Before today, it wouldn't have mattered."

My take on a scene that probably should have been in My Little Pony: A New Generation. Pipp Petals and Zipp Storm finally hash things out before going on to Bridlewood.

It's a long, long, long way down from being Emperor of Maretime Bay, especially after your childhood friend turned out to be right after all. It wouldn't have been so bad if Sunny had rubbed his nose in it, but she hadn't even done as much as that.

Now, Sprout has to make some tough choices. And while he might try to take the easy way out, somepony unexpected will show him another way forward.

While picking up the pieces of her shattered home, Sunny has an unexpected visitor: an old, old friend that she never knew she had...

Pipp and Zipp have never been close. Zipp spends a significant amount of time away from the castle, and cannot relate to Pipp's infatuation with social media. So when the younger pink pegasus starts receiving messages from a fan who truly seems to care for her, she is delighted to finally have a companion she can talk to about anything. But when her new friend's intentions veer into a dark direction, she finds herself feeling more helpless than ever.

This story takes place before the events of My Little Pony: A New Generation.

This story is a sequel to When Magic Returns

The return of magic has some unexpected consequences. So Sunny and her friends set out on a new quest: to find the fabled city of Canterlot...

Pipp has a lot of expectations placed on her by her mother, due to her being the "extra princess." Her current mission is to make sure to maintain good relations with Sunny, the mare who brought back magic into the world. Though Queen Haven wishes for a tighter link between the royal family and such an important mare.

Yes, my word counts are becoming even more insane. (Don't expect this in the future, it just worked out well for this one.)

Given the successful befriending of Discord, Princess Celestia deems that no longer will villains be defeated but instead reformed. While most have the chance to submit willingly or continue to fight, King Sombra is given little option. Brought back from the dead and stripped of all his powers and strength, it's all become a game of futility. Now Sombra only wishes he could have stayed dead all along.

We all know the story of how the Princess’ young student and five friends defeated Nightmare Moon and brought Princess Luna back to our lands. But what if the tale were false? What if the young Twilight Sparkle on the event of her entrance exam had not been rescued by Princess Celestia, but instead lost her mind among the power of her youthful surge and had to be sent away, far away before she could destroy all of Canterlot with her newfound power. Now the feral unicorn prowling the Everfree Forest only vaguely remembers her past, slipping away from constant terrifying attempts to capture her.

And she is beginning to remember what true power felt like.

Twilight becomes alicorn of the stars. This is sort of a problem, because Luna kind of already was alicorn of the stars. Oops!
