This story is a sequel to TD the Alicorn Princess

Prince Antares, formerly the human TD Powell, has ascended to rule Equestria alongside Celestia and Luna to form the Equestrian Triumvirate. Taking his residency in Baltimare, Antares comes into his role as smoothly as he can, given the circumstances.

But not all is right with the world.

A warmongering king in the newly formed minotaur nation has just allied with the griffin empire, a country that recently gained a leader unfriendly to Equestria. Now Antares will face his first true test as an alicorn prince of Equestria. He must lead his peace loving ponies into the hells of war, and face an Equestria that will never be the same.

"And with the help of Spig, I shall become the super pony princess that I have always wanted to be!" Twilit Spargle cried with joy, sending celebratory sparks of magic from her horn. Spig jumped onto Twilit's back and asked
"But how will we do that?".
"Why, magic and books, Spig. Magic, and books."

Cloud Inkwell is a straight white male. No, seriously! His coat is as white as snow, which makes his feminine pink hair stick out like a sore thumb. He's definitely male, despite the appearance. Please note that he also has a female partner, proving he isn't not straight. Also, don't mention that blank flank of his, he doesn't like to talk about it.

He is a man who has carved a path through hell to save the innocents. He is a man who sacrificed them for the greater good. He believed in his superior's lies like a fool and paid for it. He fought the closest thing reality had to the Four Horsemen. He beat Death through a cunning plan and skill. Plague's touch, through which he prospered and became stronger. War, who only beat him through its army of infected. He accepts the fact that he is being punished for the innocent lives he had sacrificed or rewarded for the ones he saved.

In the nothingness he has called home for God only knows how long a voice calls out to him promising salvation. For only one small request.

Reclaim his Empire from those who took it.

She must stay calm, she mustn't give up.

She'll find a way out, till then, she must hold her breath.

"Consider this friendship over.", Octavia spoke in calm but disappointed and broken tone, before she cut the call off.

This time was one time too much. Not only Vinyl Scratch forgot another appointment - but it was Octavias very first performance on stage, with a large audience.
Now both of them have to cope with their breakup.

Will it be the romantic prince who dries the tears, or the power of party, WUBs, booze and loads of new friends? And will they ever be able to look in their eyes again?

- Last but not least I want to thank all the members of the Writers Group, for answering my questions.

According to popular myth, girls don't fart.

Yeah, we all know that's a load.

Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy are having a slumber party, having a good time as friends, when the unexpected happens.

Someone farts and stinks up the whole room.

None of them will admit they did it. Each of them is blaming one of the others.

Can a fart destroy friendship?

"Mama? Where did I come from?"
The simple question from her daughter sends Applejack reeling. She knows the answer, of course; but she doesn't really want to share it. Luckily, she's got some... other answers as to how this little filly came into her and Rainbow Dash's life. Completely true? No; but definitely entertaining.

For DbzOrDie, because he was whining and I wanted to prove him wrong.
Special thanks to Rated Ponystar for providing the impetus for this story.

Based on " Into the Storm" this tradject story is a true story from Oklahoma. You will see how the biggest tornado changed the lives of people, ponies in this case.

Every new initiate to Starlight Glimmer's town has to spend the first week with the founder in her cottage. There's a deep dark secret to this, of course. Fluttershy's about to find out the hard way.
