You have befriended Tempest Shadow, a former arch-nemesis of Equestria; you like to spend time with her in the local park, despite her not being a big talker. Maybe she'd join you for your afternoon nap, if you asked nicely?

Based on a basic scenario by Enigmatic Otaku on a brief Blog Post Contest I held a few weeks back, and published with permission.

EDIT: Featured just a few hours after posting, early morning 10/23/18!

Chrysalis might be one of the most evil, vile, and dastardly villains that Equestria has ever known. She might have been responsible for nearly destroying the world more than once, she might even be a soul-sicking, shapeshifting monster, but she is still a mare.

She had never been given a genuine, honest compliment from someone that wasn't under threat or stuffed into a feeding pod or mind controlled. Today that is going to change.

Cadence really hasn't happy about the whole thing.

It's a fact often ignored by peons, traitors and other non-entities but true royalty does not get ill.

So though it might appear that Queen Chrysalis is ill she obviously isn't.

And while it might appear that she needs looking after, she doesn't!

...but if you insist then she is wise enough to take advantage.

Another reading from, uh, Pony & Wolf Productions, apparently. Who I'd never heard of. But good on them!

A lawyer doesn't always want to know what really happened. It's a tightrope walk. Whether or not the lawyer believes in his client's innocence is not the issue. It's his duty to defend his client - no more and no less.

Nearly one year has passed since Australian pilots discovered Equestria in the middle of the Indian Ocean.

Now the world watches in awe as, with the Princesses' blessings, one of the most ferocious and dangerous tyrants of the equine world - none other than Chrysalis, the Queen of all Changelings - is marched before one of the highest courts of law of the human world - the International Criminal Court in The Hague, the Netherlands.

But the Queen is wrathful and determined, still one of the planet's single most powerful creatures.
How can mere humans, who know next to nothing of her mystical home, achieve justice for the Equestrians?

Alexander Estermann is a conceited defence attorney who will have to wade through a quagmire of vengeance, racism, manipulation, lies, hearsay and self-deception to get to the core of the affair.
Seemingly the whole world is working against him - up and including the Queen herself.

Rated teen for liberal swearing and gore for minor gory descriptions and pictures.

Disclaimer: This is not a story that is meant to reflect reality. Several things about international law have been changed to accomodate the scenario and make it, well, readable. If that should offend you for any reason, I wish to apologise in advance.

Staring out at the desert i cant help but wonder how if i could have done better. Was there a way that i could have proven that it wasn't cadence at the wedding? Maybe if i had i would be home in Equestria in stead of here at Enotita. Maybe i would still be a unicorn instead of a kirin. Maybe i would still be a scholar instead of a guard. Maybe i would still be the prince's student. Maybe.

When Pinkie told the others about Rainbow's cookie prank on the whole town, they all decided to fight fire with fire by having the entire town prank her.

It was simple in concept, everypony would act like there was something in the cookies that made them into cookie craving zombies, they'd corner Rainbow in a confined space, and then they'd reveal themselves after scaring her silly, teaching her not to prank so much.

In hindsight, they probably should have known better than to overstimulate the adventurous and action-packed imagination of their pegasus daredevil.

An alternate ending to 28 Pranks Later.

My name is Fluttershy. I am currently a resident at the Canterlot Maximum Security Prison, more specifically in the Psychiatric ward. This place has many Nice Ponies with the Clean White Coats that work here. They talk to me a lot. There is one pony here who says he is a doctor. He talks to me the most. He tells me that I’m sick and I need help. He wants me to talk about what happened before I met him. He wants to know what happened back at the party. He wants me to tell him why I did what I did to Her. I would tell him, but I can’t trust him. He thinks I’m crazy.
The Voices told me that.

Follow Luna's journey into the depths of the Nightmare and join her in her final days on the moon.
