Before Equestria there was the Empire, ruled by a King and Queen who loved their ponies with all their hearts. The Crystal Heart was the Highest Law in the entire Kingdom, able to denounce any King or Queen and instate a new Prince or Princess who was more worthy of the throne. Very few ponies know the story behind the origins of the heart and, until Prince Sombra stumbles on a old fairytale, no one thinks it is really alive.

Unfortunately She was.

Silken Blade has slept for hundreds of years in her crystal prison, waiting for when somepony would free her and let her fly among the Stars again. Her Curse: She is bound to her Savior til their death.

Transformed into an alicorn against her will, Twilight’s peaceful world is shattered when she discovers that she’s considered a threat to the throne of the Two Sisters. With her friends nowhere to be found, Twilight must set off on a journey to find the truth behind her transformation, and why her own country considers her an enemy.

Old wounds will be opened, new friends will come forth from the shadows, and Twilight will discover a truth that will shatter her view of her mentor forever. Yet unbeknownst to her, this was her destiny all along.

Twilight has been asking Chrysalis for her freedom, but tonight, she takes it. She will ignore the armies of changelings, and the fact that her magic is restrained, and the strange flashes of partial memory that keep popping up the closer to freedom she gets...

Written for the Twysalis prompt collab!

Cheerilee is dead. All of her friends are gone. Now after surviving what killed 14 ponies and witnessing things that would drive a normal pony insane, Twilight Sparkle is being accused of killing the very ponies she was closest to. As she is in her darkest hour with nopony else how can she prove her innocence.

This is a re-imagining of the ending to Scarlet Harvest a sequel to Cheerilee's Garden(both are authored by Unahim ((here)) Which I highly recommend reading before this.

A dragon wanders through a starless night, into a land that banished him centuries ago. Never did he imagine he would return to the world that cursed his very existence, but when the sun and moon failed to rise one fateful day, something compelled him to begin the long journey home to the princess who shattered his heart.

Crossover of MLP/FNaF. Years ago as a filly, Twilight saw something at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza that is so terrifying, she doesn't want to talk about it ever! In the present, now a grown-up mare and a princess, she and her friends must oversee a week at the place, staying the night as the restaurant is in its final year. As Twilight faces her nightmares and fears, she and her friends must survive against Freddy Fazbear and his animatonic crew, who for some reason wants the new princess dead.

This story has nothing to do with the ones I'm working on in my regular MLP timeline, so it's a separated timeline.

This story is a sequel to Bride of Discord

Discord and Fluttershy are blessed with a daughter named Screwball, who is gifted with incredible power that attracts the attention of the Queen of the Changelings...as well as her son.
When disaster strikes that tears Screwball's family apart, it is up to her to bring it together again.

Death is the end. Once you die that’s it. There’s nothing. Driven by the desire to confront the mare who killed him, Sombra makes his return known at the doorstep of the Ponyville library. As the battle between Sombra and Twilight intensifies, a second motivation behind Sombra’s attack comes to light. This ulterior motive threatens not just Ponyville, but Equestria as a whole. They say death is the end of life, but for some, it’s only the beginning.

That Romance tag isn't there for the reason you probably think it is.
Also, this story was added into groups that it no longer fits into. It was added to these groups by the previous author.

Shamelessly inspired by I Am Legend.

It's been about ten years since Princess Celestia disappeared. Ten years since her disappearance changed Equestria forever. Ten years since nearly everyone became vampires.

But Twilight's not keeping anniversaries. Heck, she can barely remember her own birthday now. But that doesn't matter. She's had more important things to do, such as defending herself from the mindless vampires that attack her every night, and hunting them during the day, where she, as the only one not a vampire, has an advantage. She's killed ponies so often that she regards all the blood as a mild inconvenience. It's just the daily grind.

Or at least, it was until she left Canterlot. Her life there had become unsustainable, and so she took the train that ran through Canterlot to a small town far away on the edge of the Everfree forest- Ponyville.
There, things were different, as she discovered when she collapsed near the edge of the forest. A vampire took care of her, and that was just the start. A sequence of events leads to her making a momentous discovery:

Not all vampires are mindless. The denizens of Ponyville drink blood and sleep during the day, sure, but they're polite, friendly folk who befriend the refugee Twilight. She begins to integrate into the community, and her life seems to be looking up.

Of course, her blood-spattered past will not let her go that easily, and worse than vampires hide in the darkness. Twilight will have one last fight to keep her past from dragging her down and the future from overwhelming her. But she will fight. She has fought since she was a filly. She can win. She can hope.

After all, she is legend.
