The story is short and about Celestia keeping Twilight warm in her room. As she is blanketing the young sleeping filly, the alicorn thoughtfully thanks her for granting her the happiness she had felt when she was young.

A simple story between a mentor and her student (but emphasized in a way where I imply Celestia as a motherly figure to Twilight). Enjoy, and safe winter holidays. Be careful now.

(P.S. I do not own the image.)

"Her parents hadn’t come close to telling us what had happened. As I read her newest letter I couldn't believe what she was telling me. This kid hadn’t 'had an accident'… this kid, damn, this kid had been buckin' broken... she’d been broken…"

"I was so scared. So, on that day, I decided. I'll refuse to have friends. I'll refuse to fall in love. I'll spend my days alone, as a monster as myself should. I AM a monster. ...Right?"

After a year and a half of being on this site... FIRST STORY FEATURED! 4/29/14
I love you all.

Parents gone, check.
Castle to themselves, check.
Totally gonna be the responsible older sister... debatable.

Celestia finally has a chance to prove that she's old enough to stay home alone with Luna, if she doesn't completely mess everything up first.

Very short story, very cute story. Personal writing practice.

Many years before Twilight Sparkle was even born, a baby filly was left at the door of Canterlot Castle. Seeing this as her only opportunity of being a mother, Princess Celestia decides to take care of the orphan. When the filly gets seriously ill, Celestia will do everything to cure her, no matter the cost.

Princess Celestia has told Twilight that Daxelia was an orphan that she had taken in. But that's not the whole story. Every year, Celestia returns to West Fillydelphia on the night that her's and Luna's friend died. But it seems that Celestia has a second reason to return. Daxelia's parent's died on that same night.

Daxelia has lived a good normal life, regardless of her living in a rather run down part of Fillydelphia. Although, she does have these bursts of magic when she's surprised. However, on her 5th birthday, her life goes spiraling down hill. She loses her parents, she gets foalnapped, she has to spend 2 months walking back home, she finds out that she has no home anymore, her friend has left, and her only home is a fort that she made with her friend.

But even though her life has seemingly gone down the drain, it seems there is someone watching over her, making sure she has food and water. It seems that she has...a guardian angel.

Rated Teen for murder.

(NOTE: I decided to separate 'Dax's Despair' from 'The Dark Defender' since this is her story no matter what story Dax is in. And I may choose to delete The Dark Defender entirely.)

As a filly living in Canterlot Castle, Twilight Sparkle either wakes up from a scary nightmare, as well as missing her family, or a thunderstorm, Princess Celestia comforts her. Just because she was her mentor didn't mean she couldn't offer a motherly touch.

This absolutely demands a cute category.

Celestia finds a very young Twilight outside her room. Not knowing who brought her here, the Princess cares for her until a new family can be found. However, the Princess is oblivious to twilight's past, and the truth may have scarred Twilight for life...

Thanks you guys sooooo much!

It is the year of 1975. Melody, a young human girl, always wanted to better understand the night sky and the secrets it held. Studying in order to become an astrologist, she travels the globe to observe the different constellations and views of the people who live under them. On the night of a meteor shower in Cairo, Egypt, she wishes upon a shooting star, asking to be led to a place of great night skies no human has ever seen. However, as the saying goes; "Be careful what you wish for."
Melody awakens the next morning to find herself as an alicorn filly with no memory of who she is or once was in Canterlot nearly 40 years before the time of Twilight and her friends. She is discovered by Princess Celestia and taken under her wings. Will Melody ever regain her memories, or is she doomed to be forever in the dark?

The night Naruto stole the Scroll of Seals, he quickly learned the Shadow Clone jutsu and moved on to the next one listed. At the same time, in another universe, a filly Twilight Sparkle is trying a spell that would summon a friend. Jutsu and spell collide, and Naruto suddenly finds himself in Equestria. While he waits for Celestia to find a way to get him home, he's gotta make the best of this new world he's found himself in.

As years pass, Naruto becomes more and more accustomed to his life in Equestria. Until Celestia turns their peaceful lives on their heads by sending them to Ponyville. Sure, he agrees that Twilight needs to make more friends, but did she have to send them to a town full of crazy ponies?!

And why does Twilight keep talking about this "Mare in the Moon"?
