For several years, Sunset Shimmer, Flash Sentry, and Twilight Sparkle have been roommates in a small apartment in the heart of Manehatten. What was supposed to be the most exciting time in their young lives turned into a monotonous routine of jobs, bills, and the occasional date.

One night, their lives were torn apart, and they were thrown in a life or death struggle along the rest of Manehatten to survive an attack from a monster ravaging the city.

Luckily, what was left of one of Twilight Sparkle's old defense projects might just come in handy.

A big thanks to everyone who made this possible!

Absolute power corrupts, that is a fact.

But sometimes there is that one person who is able to prevent you from following the call of madness, who manages to be a shining sun in the madness we find ourselves in.

Sunset never thought that she would be that sun for Twilight, nor did she expect for Twilight to keep the power that corrupted her in the first place.

Over a millennium ago, a young Starswirl the Bearded sought to make a name for himself by creating doorways to other worlds. His work saw him receiving the help of Silver Scepter, a renowned artificer that he would grow very close to throughout their time working together. However, following his self-banishment to Limbo, not many were around to know of what happened to his beloved.

Now in the modern day, with his wanderlust sated, Starswirl has returned to Canterlot and his workshop within the catacombs of the city. Here, he uncovers a journal revealing a lifetime of details regarding the first world that they opened a portal to with a note attached reading, "Love, Silver Scepter." Wrought with strife of his negligence, he now asks that Twilight and her friends go on one final adventure to discover what happened to the mare and possibly set foot into the mysterious world of 'Terra' for the last time before it is lost to Equestria forever.

Takes place between the destruction of Canterlot in The Ending of the End and Twilight's Coronation in The Last Problem.

Can a daughter's love help wear down the darkness caused from anger and hate in one person's soul even when some of it may be justified? And will it give said person a reason to go on when that anger and hate is stripped away taking away the false strength it gave to face the day after a painful past?

Two years ago, Sunset met five girls who offered her their hands in friendship. Yet after overhearing Applejack and Rainbow Dash making fun of her and claiming that there was no way Sunset had what it took to be a part of their group, Sunset swore she would pay them back for their betrayal, and did so in the most painful way she could.
Now with the portal opening, the events of the first Equestria Movie is going to take place with some major changes. Can Twilight rally the girls and form a new team to take on Sunset's Hellfire Club and win back the Element of Harmony, or will Team Harmony manage to bring it together and defeat Hell's Queen?

Humans. I hate all of them, though that doesn't say much for myself seeing how I'm one now also. So yeah, I do hate myself and wish I never came to this alien world with it's alien customs and world full of hate. A hate that has since corrupted me becaus elike I said, I hate all of you! - Sunset Shimmer

This story is a sequel to Seven Days in Sunny June, Book I

Joint Co-Authored project with Shinzakura and Flynt Coal.

Once, Sunset Shimmer had desired nothing more than to return to Equestria and assume her rightful place as its supreme ruler. Instead, she discovered her place amongst the humans of the world she thought herself exiled to, never assuming that the students she’d bullied would become her best friends, nor that she would come to see an alternate version of Twilight Sparkle as not only a friend, but a sister. Yet it came to pass, and though the previous year had been hard, Sunset had finally let go of the past.

Yet the past refused to let go of her. Something dark and sinister reached from beyond to hurt Twily, buffeting her mind with nightmares of strangely-colored ponies and macabre events to come. Sunset recognized it as her homeworld, especially the description of a dark, twisted version of Sunset’s own unicorn form. Furthermore, the discovery of a second link to Earth deepened the mystery: an ancient Italian artifact adorned with cutie marks, amongst them those of Queen Faust and Princess Celestia.

In the end, Sunset chose to rush to her foster sister’s defense, knowing that the path would lead her back to her haunted past, and possibly into the vengeful hooves of Celestia. But what she didn’t know would be that it could lead her to her own mirror image, a darker version of herself:

A version known as Raspberry Beryl.

This story is a sequel to A Hairier Problem: Rise of the Furball

Now with a reading series by martialartfruituser!

A Tale of the Berylverse. Joint project with BlueBastard and Flynt Coal.

Weeks after her defeat at the hands of the humanized Princess Twilight Sparkle, the one-time pony Sunset Shimmer is working towards making herself a better life. But in an unexpected chain of events, she ends up in a situation that not even her new friends - Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow, Fluttershy, and Pinkie - can get her out of...nor really do they want to. As if that's not enough, Principal Celestia's firmly against the whole deal.

But maybe if Sunset Shimmer sticks around, she'll get more than she bargained for - for good and ill....

Now blessed with its own TVTropes page!

While this does take place in BlueBastard's Berylverse, prior knowledge of his earlier stories (A Hairy Problem and Rise of the Furball) won't be necessary for Book I of this story. But it's highly recommended for Book II (and they're worth reading to begin with!)
