Celestia leaves to deal with a foreign crisis, giving her sister a chance to rule alone and become more attached to the modern world. She calls on Twilight Sparkle to advise Luna, hoping her student will be able to draw Luna out of her shell. With two major threats to Equestria already defeated in the past year, it seems like the perfect time to let Luna gain some confidence and experience in the modern world. After all, what are the chances of a third disaster occurring?

Now comes with complimentary tropes.

Behind her calm and happy mask Celestia is a lonely alicorn. Once betrayed by a past love she has resigned herself to be alone forever.

But when a new love in the form of an old student is presented can Celestia let go of her sad past and take hold of a happier future?

And will the events happening around her be enough to make her realize that happiness has always been within her grasp.

Twilight's annual assessment is coming up, and she must go to Canterlot to visit her mentor. She decides to practice a spell that's sure to impress, but it goes horribly wrong, with potentially disastrous consequences. Princess Celestia and her sister Princess Luna are forced to pick up the pieces that remain while maintaining a cover on the scandal.

Twilight's magic fails somehow. The results can be comedic, romantic, or even horribly dark, but it's always a messy magical mishap from our mane mare. How often has that been used now? It's almost too easy.

Anyway, this is something I came up with while trying to break through my writer's block on my other story. It'll probably be 2 or 3 chapters long, but if people enjoy it enough, I might extend it.

A TF2 crossover? Seriously, how many of these have shown up? Oh well, time for my effort.

Equestria and Aquileon, the griffon's realm, have a long-standing agreement: Every five years, teams from each country will face each other in a competition to garner fame and glory for their home and for themselves. This year, the griffons have chosen war games, confident that they can steamroll the peace-loving Equestrians.
Princess Luna, determined to stop this from happening, pulls nine great warriors from their world to help Equestria and to train their representatives. But was this a good idea?

This is kinda... experimental. If this garners enough interest, then I shall continue it. Otherwise, I shall let it die quietly.
Also, if somepony can give me the source of the picture I'm using, I'd appreciate that immensely.

*Revised Edition*
Princess Celestia takes the week off for spring break and her annual visit with Twilight Sparkle. But it seems Twilight has more in mind than just visiting. After a bottle of wine or two leads to a bit more than student-teacher hugging, it's clear her student is in Canterlot for more than tea and study. Now Celestia is caught between a romantically-aggressive Twilight that has awaken strange new sensations in the normally stoic sun goddess and a resentful, overprotective sister that has laid an ultimatum: Put an end to her "interactions" with Twilight before she does.

After repeatedly being excluded and left behind from the Mane 6's adventures, only to do his chores at the library, Spike begins to feel bitter about his role as Twilight's assistant.

But upon seeing a shooting star one fateful night, he makes a wish that turns his life upside down.

The results of this wish will force Spike to discover the true meaning of purposes in life, friendship and most importantly, being wary of what you wish for.
