Anonymous doesn't ask for much in life. Good friends, a place to sleep, and of course, the snoots of ponies to boop. There's nothing he won't do to boop those snootles, and he has traveled far and wide to experience the snoots of all known nations, races, and creeds. Yet there is one kind of snoot that he has been unable to boop: that of an alicorn.
That changes today.

A quick bit of silliness whipped up in a few hours. No, I don't know why, either.

Starswirl the Bearded developed a time-travel spell. A pony could use it - but only once, and only be in the past for about a minute.

One chance. One minute. That's all Princess Celestia has to save her sister from the Nightmare.

A special thanks to daOtterGuy for answering when I said "Name me four stars in the Equestrian sky" and unwittingly helping me with this.

Now with a Russian translation by PlaguedGuard.

On the outskirts of the Everfree Forest, not too far away from Fluttershy's cottage, there lies a picturesque pond with a surprisingly gentle waterfall feeding into it. Behind this waterfall, a hidden grotto keeps itself a secret from prying eyes that may hope to defile it.

Fluttershy is the only exception.

When she needs some time to just get away from it all, she sometimes comes to the grotto to rest, reflect, and relax on her own. There are few places in Equestria that can replicate the sense of peace that she feels there, and she's glad to have it all to herself.

This makes it all the more worrying when, on one of her usual visits, she realizes that she's not alone.

Rainbow Dash is a simple mare. She loves flying, she loves napping, but most importantly of all, she loves her friends. She loves her family. She loves the little tortoise who sleeps in the corner of her bedroom. She loves her town, she loves her country, she loves her world.

She's never thought about what she would do without it all. She's never thought about what she would do if she woke up one morning, only to discover that the world had passed her by. She's never thought about what she would be willing to do, how far she would be willing to go, to get it all back.

You and Twilight have been best friends for the longest time. It was surprising, considering that a literal Princess would ever consider you, the social outcast that you are, a friend. But for that, you were grateful. And you have never been happier than when you were with her, and vice versa.

One afternoon, Twilight approaches you looking all nervous and flustered. Naturally, as her best friend, you want to help in any way you can.

You've been the only human in Equestria for some time now. However, it wasn't until this morning that your good friend Twilight suggested you take a peek through the Crystal Mirror. Supposedly, there is another world on the other side of that mirror populated by humans just like you.

She conveniently left out the fact that she herself turns into a human when she passes through it.

In hindsight, you probably should have seen this coming.

Anonymous, asshole extraordinaire and a rotten egg by all accounts, has fallen on good times after being made a commander of the Storm King's vast armies. With the King's forces and equipment at his fingers, he's found great success conquering nations, sowing chaos, and kicking the asses of all walks of life. All while having a rip-roaring great time doing it.
But the day of the Storm King's biggest conquest to date - the nation of Equestria - looms just around the corner. All that's left now is the final few preparations for the invasion: loose ends to tie up, new weapons to seize, and even some co-commanders to annoy to no end. And once those are complete, Anon will be the first in line to take Equestria as his next conquest.
God help us all.

This isn't the first horse story I've written, but it is the first one that is prose instead of greentext. And I'm still a bit rusty on top of all that. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated!

Adagio Dazzle has assembled all of the Friendship is Magic villains, so that they can work together to defeat Twilight Sparkle and her friends once and for all. With them all working together, how could they possibly lose...?

Rainbow Dash is fine, despite what her friends think. There's nothing wrong. She's just tired, that's all.

Twilight Sparkle is an extremely important pony to you. After ending up in Equestria, she was the one who took you in. She was the one who taught you what friendship can be. She was the one who treated you like an actual person. Over time, the two of you became extremely close. How could you not fall for her? The problem was, you weren't brave enough to let her know that. It took some time to finally build up the courage to tell her how you feel.

But you were a day too late.
