Sombra wasn't born naturally evil. He didn't enjoy enslaving the crystal ponies that he was raised around. But he did feel different. He was the son of the Crystal Empire's King and yet Sombra wasn't a crystal pony himself. His 'father' made sure that he new that, and that he was a bastard child, and would never inherit anything. He was always in the shadow of his brother who was his father's true son, but Sombra never gave in to these shadows cast over him. Not until he was forced. But that would be much later. After he met the most amazing mare in the whole of Equestria.

If Celestia is God, then who are her Angels? Based on Cupcakes by Sgt. Sprinkles: In the aftermath that follows the tragedy at Sugarcube Corner, the Elements of Harmony are lost and broken. However, one night, Luna visits Twilight's dreams to inform her of a powerful resurrection spell. When Dash returns, she isn't the pony that her friends remember and what's more, an 'angel' has followed her into the living realm.

Sometimes you just have to remember who they were...

-- Cancelled --

Her home destroyed and her life in ruin by the hooves of Twilight, Trixie is left with next to nothing.

A/N: This story takes place between Boast Busters and Magic Duel. However, it also takes place after Luna Eclipsed. Essentially, Boast Busters takes place somewhere in Season 2 for the purposes of this story. Find the reason why here.

Trixie has not had it easy since the alicorn amulet had corrupted her.
Her hopes for the future dashed, she has moved to the Everfree Forest with only a hallucination to comfort her.
When even the forest chases her away she will need to depend upon the goodness and generosity of another for the first time in a long while.

A 'Know your Star' story; only with your favourite ponies getting unneeded hassle and lies told about them. Won't this be fun? Probably not... But hey, everything can't be seriousness all the time, so let's take a load off and just pester some ponies, and Spike for good measure.

The never ending adventures of Know Your Mare march on and on and on.
