As Applejack's fillyhood friend, Countess Coloratura, is singing up on the stage, amid all of the flashing lights and music, Twilight Sparkle can't help but feel that there is something familiar about the mare.

Oh well, it's probably just her imagination. . . right?

Thanks for all of the support!

Sunset Shimmer still doesn't fully understand how the magic that transforms her and her friends works. She's close to figuring it out though, or so she thought. When a magical "fluke" occurs during a band practice, will the girls, along with the Twilight of their world, be able to figure out what happened, and will they be able to fix it?

Takes place about a week or two after the Friendship Games

This is my first story, so it might be good, it might crash and burn. I am ready for criticism, and prepared for the worst. If you see any spelling or grammatical errors please let me know in the comments.
This idea came from reading Oops! I'm Equine Again by MythrilMoth!

One night, before Hearth's Warming Eve, Princess Celestia goes to light a fire to keep warm.

A voice in the chimney asks her not to do so.

Twilight finally finished her 'read later' list of books. It took her years to do and she was quite proud of her accomplishment. A small problem is pointed out by Pinkie Pie, which brings Twilight to a stunning realization.

Twilight gets a distressing letter from Celestia and rushes to Canterlot.
What happened to the princess? What is Luna up to? Why do I sound like the narrator to a bad crime drama?
The first chapter is inspired by a drawing from JohnJoseco. The rest will be my own madness doing its part.

It was an innocent invention. I wanted to show everypony what it was about magic and science that I loved so much. So I created a device, based off of the portal to the human realm as well as Starlight Glimmer's alteration to Starswirl the Bearded's time-travel spell. It was designed to seek different realms like the human one, each with alternate versions of everypony at alternate times. I'd even had the foresight to create a D.N.A Filter. One strand of fur, and the device would lock onto the alternate lives of that particular individual.

I was so excited. Princess Celestia, Luna, Cadence, Shining Armor and everypony came to see it in action. Rainbow Dash was the first to go. The device worked perfectly. It opened a rift that showed the town of Ponyville, an alternate Rainbow Dash. A pale blue cat with a rainbow collar. She was playing with a feline Fluttershy. Obviously the two were very young, but the device worked nonetheless.

Many ponies had a turn. And the device picked random alternate realities every time. Pinkie Pie as a Squirrel, Rarity the Swan Armorsmith, Bunny Fluttershy fighting a snake, Dragon Applejack for President.

Then Celestia proposed an idea, combining two different furs as a filter for the device. Naturally, I jumped at the chance. Combining Celestia's with my own, the device did nothing for a long moment. Then, it opened up to something that made everypony freeze with disbelief. What we saw put all villains, past and future to shame.

Nopony will forget the horrors that my invention showed.

Song: Kara Remembers - Battlestar Galactica Soundtrack

Book 1 of the Distorted Series

Note: Story will depict similarities to the Star Wars Universe, but this is NOT a crossover.

This story is a sequel to Iron Wing and the Demolition Crew

Everyone knows the story of the Iron Wing. They all know how fiercely she fought at the battle of Rainbow Falls. Soldiers measure their worth by where they were when she routed Sombra at the gates of Canterlot. Even now, there's a pilgrimage some take that follows her entire campaign.

And anyone who knows anything about the Iron Wing knows about the Demolition Crew. The story of the Crystal Collapse is one fraught with thrills and chills for fillies of all ages, and the closing of the Ghastly Gorge continues to inspire and terrify all who hear of it.

But legends seldom begin as the titans they become. Heroes are not born, but made, through fire and pain and loss. There isn't a pony alive who doesn't know the story of the heroes, but the story of the soldiers who became those heroes is one known only to them.

This is not the story of Iron Wing and the Demolition Crew. This is the story of Rainbow Dash and the Pie sisters.

Twilight stalks and harasses a nine year old filly...but it's in the past, so it's totally legal.

Now with Reading by CaptainBron3y

Nightmare Moon was not one to sit about and wait in hopes that she might sometime escape. She would bring about her freedom with her own two hooves!

All she needed was power. Enough to fill the stars and drag them from the skies.

For an alicorn in chains, that was magic she just didn't have. But she could take it; it was only a subject's duty to give of themselves for their Princess's sake, was it not? Still, that would take time, centuries even, and with such thorough bindings she would be unable to take more than scraps from from common peasants.

No, she would need somepony... special. Somepony attuned to the stars themselves.

And if no such pony could be found, then she would make one.

Now with an audiobook provided by Illya Leonov.
