Sequel is now live!

Revenge. It has been the only thing on Chrysalis’s mind during the months of her exile. What should have been her greatest triumph turned out to be her ultimate downfall. After months of waiting, she has at last developed a plot to win back the support of the changelings and take over Equestria: Run a dating service.

Disguised as the lovely unicorn Cherub, she starts up her business, ready to reclaim what she had lost. However, she soon discovers that the dating world is not as simple as it appears. Realizing that she cannot do this alone, she is forced to seek help from the most unlikely of sources.

Call me Shiro. My story begins when I find myself in the land of Equestria. I would say something cliché, like, “a world I only thought existed in a show for little girls” or something, but it really isn't. I mean, sure, it's similar enough, but at the same time it isn't the perfect, peaceful world they depict. For starters, I haven't met a pony who hasn't had somepony the know and love get eaten by some predator. That's where I come in.

You see, when I arrived, I was changed into not a pony, but a tiger. I don't care what you say, I'm not a Gary Stu! Sure, I have chaos magic, get a girlfriend in less than a month, and get a katana, but the katana breaks... while fighting an elder god... Okay, fine, but I don't go full Stu. You never go full Stu. Anyway, this is the story about my quest to protect these ponies that I came to love.

Chaotic Harmony is an over-the-top action/comedy (emphasis on comedy) that takes all the clichés you know and love (or hate) and breaks, twists, turns them on their ears, or pumps them full of adrenalin and laughs as they rape your brain. This is, however, also a story about overcoming loss and forging a new life.

Contains: Different-but-not-quite-different-enough-for-AU Equestria, ridiculous comedy, over-the-top DBZ level action, borderline Stu self-insert, tigerxpony shipping, and dark, emotional chapters later on.

You'll laugh, cry, cheer, and d’aww throughout the rollercoaster ride that is Chaotic Harmony.

It had been one year since Twilight Sparkle vanished in the battle against the evil unicorn Xander, and her friends were still trying to overcome the grief of losing her. On the anniversary of her presumed death, her friends gather at her memorial. What was suppose to be a day of remembrance was shattered by a strange metal object that landed right beside them. Their anger quickly turns to shock as a familiar unicorn emerges... and boy does she have a story to tell.

Rated Teen for violence, language, and sexual content. Rating and tags may change in future chapters.

This is not a Halo fic. It IS however loosely inspired by Halo as well as Star Wars, Mass Effect and several other sci-fi movies, books, and games.

A mother will do a lot for her child, even give them up if it meant them having a safer life growing up, despite the obvious pain that comes for the parent.

That pain is something Queen Chrysalis has gone through for eighteen years, but now the time is upon them, and she wants her daughter back. Even if that means invading Canterlot during a royal wedding.

Jessica finds herself flung into a world she has little concept of. Everything is strange and new to her, but worst of all she cannot communicate with the native inhabitants. A world of monsters and sapient ponies, griffons and other assorted beasts is no place for a human girl.

How will Jessica cope? Without an understanding of their language how will she make her way in the world, will she even be able to ever communicate with them? Why was she even brought into the world and is there even a way for her to get home?

Appearance is everything, especially when you're a Wonderbolt. When you live your life in the spotlight, showing vulnerability will not do. There can be no cracks in your foundation, at least that's how it feels. But learning to bring those walls down can lead to surprising, wonderful revelations—even in the intensive care ward.

For some ponies, like Captain Spitfire, something needs to shake the foundations to bring the walls tumbling down. Then, with some help from the right pony, you can be led from the rubble.

Even if you fall head-over-hooves along the way.

This story is a sequel to Princess Celestia The Changeling Queen: Stories Behind the Mask


At the Royal Wedding, Chrysalis and the Changelings were revealed to all of Equestria.

But another mask was torn away that day. A mask born for a thousand years. A mask created on one promise. A mask, that has become synonymous, fused, to its bearer.

A mask that when ripped off, causes Twilight, her friends and Luna to question everything they ever knew about the one pony, one very important pony.

At the Royal Wedding, the meaning of the phrase 'Princess Celestia' changes forever.

NOTE: Chrysalis is NOT Celestia!!! That'd be impossible to pull off.
