Chrysialis is back... and completely insane.

The changeling that once aimed to take over Equestria vanished after her plans were thwarted. But now shes back, with a somewhat altered agenda. She's become mentally unstable and is beginning to loose control... or is she?

What has driven Chrysalis to this point? What horrifying plans does she have in store for the mane six?

This was my first fan-fic. I've now moved on to my second one, as this one is finished, but I won't upload the second story until I have permission from an artist to use his picture.
Any feedback, especially constructive criticism, is appreciated, so go ahead and tell me what you think!
Also, please give me any opinion of the sad ending. I'm expecting bad reviews, because I actually didn't want to write it. I wrote a happy ending, and the only reason I wrote the sad ending was to keep everypony happy.
Thanks in advance for the feedback!

She is gone. Her own mother, not by blood, but by sheer love, is gone. The one who brought the joy of music into her life, the one who gave her everything she never thought she could have... is gone.

But she will carry on the beat.

Every song, every beat, every drop. Every memory, every trial, every tear. This is Scootaloo's melody.

Author's Note:
If you haven’t already, I suggest you read the first story. I would love it if you would point out all of the mistakes you find... well, as far as grammar and all that goes, at least. If you would like to help out as an editor, that would be great.

When an accident reveals a disturbing truth, Scootaloo gets the news that she will never fly. Her newly found mentor and sister fill-in, Rainbow Dash, must confront a reality where both the hero and a dreamer are broken.

This story is a sequel to Discordant

Almost ten years have passed since Scootaloo helped free Discord. She’s learned to live with the consequences, but it’s never easy. After being fired from the local weather control team, she receives a letter from Princess Celestia, offering her a job as an assistant flight instructor for gifted pegasi. With no better options, she reluctantly accepts. But why her, what game is Celestia playing, and what exactly is going on in Canterlot?

Applejack. For too long, that has been the only thought in Rarity's head. Finally, she will go all out to find out if the mare she cares for could ever return her feelings. The stage is set. The night is planned. Even the cutie mark crusaders will not be able to mess this up for her.
...Or so she thinks.
When Scootaloo is injured, and a certain secret revealed, the element of generosity is put to the test.

Formal Riot has just arrived in Ponyville with her partner when she receives a mysterious package in the mail promising her riches. Little does she know that nothing in life comes for free, and soon she will find herself trapped with eleven other seemingly innocent ponies as they fight to escape what is known as the manor.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders have always lived in the now, getting what they think needs to be done as a soon as possible, executing their plans just so they can move on to the next one right away, not thinking about the consequences till they’re right there in their faces. But when an attempt to earn their cutie marks goes too far, Sweetie Belle and her friends must face a horrible reality that sends their world into darkness and fear. How will the truth be uncovered and what will be sacrificed to undo this nightmare?

What happens, happens. I think that is one of the rules of Causality as stated by the late, great Douglas Adams. It is a pretty important rule and I use it to guide me through life, no matter what goes on in it. So, when I was driving to an out of town job and found myself in another world, I did my best to take everything in stride.

I would be the first to say the adjustment is not easy. Especially, when the first thing you do is make yourself a pony distrusted, disliked and defamed by some national heros. Thinking about that, I think I have to invoke another Douglas Adams quote. "Don't Panic."

This is the result of me getting bored one day and starting writing. Now that I got a bit of it done, I wouldn't mind honest opinions, and flame away if you feel the need. I have thick skin.

As you might notice, there are a few chapters with a box at the top. These are the ones that my editor and I went through again, and hopefully improved. I'll refrain from changing plot but spelling, grammar and flow are all up for grab. Especially for the early chapters.

One night, an amazing display lit up the sky over Ponyville. A comet, brighter than any in living memory, was making its way through the sea of stars. The residents of the town gathered en masse to witness the spectacle. As was the tradition for such an occasion, many ponies made a wish on the celestial body, hoping that maybe, just maybe, some of them might come true...
