Princess Celestia ascended Twilight into an alicorn without giving her any notice, then she left her to return to Canterlot to make preparations for the newborn alicorn's coronation, leaving Twilight's mind reeling from the sudden change of species and what it means.

Twilight can't sleep because her over-analytical mind is plagued with fear, uncertainty, and doubt. But maybe a visitor can help ease her worries and comfort her enough for her to fall asleep.

Twilight and Luna have been dating for a few months now. With them both being so busy it was a good idea to just go for a walk together.

Ditching the guards was fun too.

When Twilight Sparkle has to write a poem she does so, but Celestia becomes concerened about what is there and decides to talk with her favotie student about it.

Celestia called Twilight to the palace, to help her sister Luna who is lonely... Well that's what she wanted her to think.

Timberwolves, creatures made of wood, bound by an old magic to protect the Everfree Forest and the Abandoned Castle that lays deep within.
A thousand years after Princess Celestia defeated Nightmare Moon, those creatures still roam the forest at night.
Called whenever an intruder tries to venture too close to the dark magic kept in the castle.
But after a thousand years of duty, are those guardians still following the same ideals ?
Are they still hearing the same voice who gave them life ?
When did their nightmare really started ?

I fall asleep one night, only to awaken in Equestria as a foal! Not only that, but Nightmare Moon is my mother! What lies ahead for me in my new foalified life?

The Rainbooms and Sonata can't wait to enjoy the first snow day of the season...but they wish the same could be said for the other two members of The Dazzlings. The other two sirens couldn't care less about the snow, but Sonata is determined to make them come join the fun. This erupts in a big snowball fight pulling out an old side of Aria that the sirens haven't seen for years. Shakespeare. And the renaissance of Aria just adds to the fun and makes her blue Juliet even more smitten.

After a terrible storm sweeps through the Everfree, Fluttershy finds the weakened but still powerful King Sombra on her doorstep. Unable to resist his dark magic, she finds herself trapped by a spell that forces her to aid him, protect him, and heal him until he is strong once more, all while keeping his revival a secret from her friends. Unwilling to risk bringing her friends into the situation and endanger them, Fluttershy decides on a riskier tactic

If she could reform Discord, why not the Tyrant of the Crystal Empire. After all, with his spell keeping her from betraying his presence, it might be her only hope. Can she kill the Dark King with Kindness? Or will the ancient sorcerer once more stretch his shadow across Equestria?

Darkness can eat away at one's soul; darkness and fear was all he knew for a thousand years. A brutal, near death, defeat has weakened this once nigh invincible Stallion of Darkness. It is now up to the least likely of heroes to unknowingly cure the pain and loss of his soul; hopefully he can regain it and light the fires in his long cold heart.

Chrysalis is beaten. Her invasion of Canterlot has failed. Her hive has been scattered to the winds. And with Equestria on guard, love is in short supply. She has failed her people, and now the future looks bleak and grim.

But there’s a change in the air. Chrysalis can feel it in her bones and in her dreams. Something is calling to her, drawing her and the remnants of her hive north. To the place the changelings once called home.
