Twilight Sparkle was annoyed to say the least, when her mentor Princess Celestia dismissed her warning of the Mare in the Moon and assigned her to go to Ponyville to supervise the Summer Sun Celebration. 'Make some friends' she says.

The thing is, Twilight already had friends. Friends she's had ever since she got into Celestia's school for gifted unicorns, friends she's taken for granted for many years, friends who she just happens to bump into before leaving Canterlot and invite themselves along to the celebration.

Between the crazy ponies in this little town and the crazy ponies who call themselves her friends, she finds herself at her wit's end while being constantly sidetracked in trying to prepare for the fabled Nightmare Moon's return. After all, it's not like these old schoolmates of hers are going to be able to help prevent eternal night and the end of Equestria as they know it, right?

Following the huge fight with her brother, Twilight is depressed until “Cadance” decides to take her to a nearby bar for a few drinks. She goes on a bender and ends up waking up in a hospital hungover, in pain, and surrounded by her friends and loved ones with no memory of what happened before she got knocked out.

After a huge tell-off, she learns that fake Cadance/Queen Chrysalis did something horrible to her that led to her hospitalization and the wedding being postponed. She discovers how the changeling invasion went down, and that everyone ended up learning a hard lesson.

Based off of a recurring dream I had of Twilight getting hammered and drunkenly going off at everyone for abandoning her.

Rated T for drinking, an allusion to date rape, suggestive humor, and cursing.

Queen Chrysalis and her changeling army have been defeated but it came at a price as Twilight Sparkle hurt and betrayed by her brother, friends, and mentor for abandoning them runs away only to loss her life after an unfortunate accident occurred on the way home.
Shortly afterwards, a new mysterious unicorn comes to town trying to settle down in Equestria yet unbeknownst to any pony she secretly has sinister plans up her hooves with a hidden agenda to take over Equestria.

This story is a sequel to Light and Dark

Following Tirek's defeat, Twilight Sparkle has reformed and is now the Princess of Friendship. Now she is spending her time spreading the magic of friendship across from Equestria while further proving her redemption to everypony and that she truly deserves her newly established power and position through the adventures she and her friends face during the events of Season 5 of Friendship is Magic onwards.

After being banned from coming to the wedding, Twilight leaves Equestria and becomes a member of the Storm King's army. This allows Twilight to become close friends with Tempest as Twilight swiftly rises to the rank of 2nd Commander and is renamed Sparkle Shadow.

"Darkness beyond blackest pitch, Deeper than the deepest night." Those words echoed through her dreams from foalhood. However as she grew her bonds with her brother, her assistant and her mentor quieted them. Her bonds with her friends, the other elements, silenced them. But what happens when those bonds break? When all she loves turns their back on her. What happens when the Nightmare awakes?

This is a request story from Chazkopa, and is an alternate ending to Canterlot Wedding. It's based on this, but when Twilight's about to kill Chrysalis, the changeling queen creates a portal and escapes, realizing that with Twilight so powerful in dark magic, she'd be unable to conquer Canterlot.

The Mane 5, Shining and Celestia apologize to Twi, but it's too late. She doesn't forgive them. Twilight angrily turns to them, and broadcasts a recording of what happened at the wedding rehearsal. The wedding guests were furious. Also, when she broadcasted it, not only Canterlot, but all of Equestria saw. And then...
