One thousand years ago, two sisters reflect on what they've done, and what they still have to do.

I'm British, so some of the spellings may be different. Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated.

Edit: Saw the story in the Popular Stories box, thank you all!

Daring Do. Adventurer, archaeologist, scholar, philanthropist, and all around heroine to the ponies of Equestria. She's faced countless threats and challenges in her years traveling the world, and her efforts have earned her rewards, accolades, and prestige. However, she now finds herself against a new foe, one foul and sinister, so evil and diabolical that even she is powerless to fight against it.

Forced time off.

Banished by her superiors at Canterlot University to the dreary, ho-hum city of Prodigal Point, Daring Do is forced to find a way to cope with deal with her increasing boredom and insatiable curiosity. However, her attempts cause her to stumble upon a mysterious conspiracy, one being carried out by an enigmatic group of ponies with unknown motives. She's soon smack-dab in the middle of the action yet again, and while she's used to such things, she also winds up with a bigger problem that's completely new to her:
motherhood.

Picture by Kyrgyzpopstar.

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.

Placed sixth in the August 2015 Write-Off Event: Distant Shores.

Twilight thought she had gotten all the surprises she could in life after she had gone from being a unicorn into an Alicorn, then finding out about a world where all those she knew in this world had human doubles.

She was wrong.

Zecora makes a sudden visit late one night after the Plumber Plants have been dealt with. What she has to tell Twilight shocks the Alicorn to the bone. Zecora is pregnant, and Twilight is the father.

However, Twilight isn't the only one of her friends now facing sudden parenthood.

I know i've already written one where Zecora is pregnant with AJ's child, but i couldn't resist this one

This story is a sequel to Castle Clean Up

Twilight has been using her discovery with the Want It, Need It spell to satisfy her urges ever since and decides it is the best way to deal with her heat this season, so she doesn't have to suffer through it, nor look for a stallion to help her, while making sure said stallion doesn't knock her up, the latter of which she won't do due to being a fillyfooler.

However, she is so intent to rid herself of her heat, she forgets one crucial detail whilst having her futanari clones help her through it. Mares can get pregnant when in heat if somepony releases inside their womb, a fact she learns all too well. Her only comfort is confining in Cadance, the only pony who knew Twilight was having orgies with her own clones.

Now, pregnant with her own child, Twilight must figure out how to explain to her friends, her parents, Celestia and, worst of all, her brother, that she got herself pregnant... with herself.

Along with dealing with the difficulties pregnancy brings on its own, Twilight will have to deal with how the rest of Equestria will react to the idea that she sired her own child.

Luckily for her, there is another pony coming to grips with the idea of sudden motherhood; somepony Twilight is very surprised to meet again.

Note: When it says she gets herself with herself, it means one of her clones got her pregnant, not that she's pregnant with another her.

TittySparkles story just opened this thought in my mind the moment i read it, though i kept in inside until now.

In Popular Stories from 13-15/8/2015.

Propaganda is a powerful thing. She took my crimes, my failures, and turned them into a wives tail. Into something you tell your foals to get them to come inside at night. Be good or Nightmare moon will come and eat you up. She did this so when I came back they would not fear me. They would not know me as a monster, just a story book villain.

Princess Celestia sets out to reform Queen Chrysalis. Easier said than done.

I've done too much dark and serious stuff with Chrysalis. It's time to have some fun with her playful, snarky side.
