"What a shame she wasn’t here to see this. She would have been proud. Yes, happy to see her faithful student taking her throne for her own, corrupted power. What a faithful student she was."

Short story.

Sins –commonly known as violations of divine law, transgressions of great moral and sometimes even legal consequence, leading the individual committing them to eternal damnation. Rarely do they have any significance in the mortal life.

Twilight Sparkle –Princess Celestia’s protégé, considered the most powerful unicorn mare in the known world, second only to the famed Starswirl the Bearded. Wielder of the Element of Magic, she triumphed over beings both evil and chaotic, a feat that no lesser pony could ever hope to achieve. By many viewed as the pinnacle of virtue.

But what if that wasn’t the whole truth?

They say sins do not have any repercussions in mortal life. But what if they are wrong?

Author’s Note:
My debut, both on this site and in the genre. May or may not remain a oneshot, depends on the response I receive. Despite referencing “sins” story does not contain anything remotely considered religious. Also please keep in mind, that English is not my native language, so there might be some grammar errors. Constructive criticism welcome.

A year has passed since the terrible accident that claimed Rarity's life and Twilight Sparkle's sanity. Spike and his remaining friends have tried to put the past behind them, but when a revelation about their demented friend comes to light, they have no choice but to confront the corrupted Element of Magic. They hold Equestria's fate, for if they fail to save their friend, Twilight will enact an apocalyptic genocide upon the ponies she used to know and love, dooming them all to a fate far worse than death.

This is a sequel to my story Friends Forever. It is highly suggested you read that one before this one, as it details Twilight's descent into insanity and how the current situation came about.

(REWRITE IN PROGRESS)

After a weekend spent in Canterlot, Twilight Sparkle arrives home to find an odd scroll in her saddlebags. In the following days Twilight is plagued by terrifying nightmares, and horrific visions from a life not her own. Can Twilight Sparkle resist the Nightmare, or will she fall prey to the darkness?

The newly coronated Princess Twilight suffers an abrupt tragedy. Having lost two loved ones, she begins to question her own mortality, and that of her friends.

AJ, Dash, Rarity, Pinkie, Fluttershy. . . they are just the beginning. Twilight will live for thousands of years, so every pony she cares about—every pony she will ever care about, will die.

She could barely handle the pain of one funeral, let alone the thought of hundreds of them. Twilight finds a clever way to ensure all of her friends never die. They can’t all be ageless alicorns, but they can all move into Twilight’s Dollhouse. Then they can be best friends forever.

In a world where she sees from a distorted perspective, all Twilight Sparkle can do is cling to the one pony she knows will never let her down: her teacher, the princess... no matter which princess her addled brain tells her that is. Twilight's used to rewriting letters, but when she's the one being rewritten, she finds the sensation to be altogether different.

Many thanks must go to my awesome editors, Varanus, Ebon Mane, shortskirtsandexplosions, Seattle_Lite, and Nick Nack.

There has always been a little voice in Twilight Sparkle's head, whispering dark musings to her. And until her brother's wedding, she has managed to push those bitter thoughts away and focus on the good. She forgives and forgets and holds onto hope.

But when her friends turn their backs on her and her brother cuts her from his life, Twilight finds herself alone, with only the little voice to comfort her.

And it is through anger and hate that has been repressed for so long that Twilight finds the power to rise up. Harmony and Friendship have only brought her pain and suffering. It is time for her to embrace her dark side. No longer will she worry about what others think. Twilight is going to live her life how SHE chooses: without friends, without family, without love and without harmony. She is going to cut loose, have fun, and screw what others think.

For her friends and family, it will soon become apparent that if they don't find a way to mend the damage they've done to the lavender mare...Twilight Sparkle might be lost to them forever.
