Soon after Twilight's ascension to Alicorn-hood, her friends followed and took control of the Elements - and when Fluttershy took control of the Earth, no-pony, not even Celestia, would realize what power they'd given her before she changed them all into stone and hid herself away in the Everfree forest.
Ponyville is deserted. Canterlot is in a continual state of crisis. Her friends have abandoned her.
But that doesn't matter. All that matters is that no-one leaves.

Applejack has been stuck in a rut. She constantly compares her self to everypony else in Ponyville and while contemplating her various flaws she is asked to do something that can only make the situation worse.

The school in Ponyville is having a career day and Applebloom asked Applejack to come along and talk about work on the farm. Interesting hi-jinks will likely ensues from the CMC and the other classmates. But more importantly, what is everypony going to think about some dirty farm mare?

Told from Applejack's point of view and in her accent, (As best as I could write it.).

C'mon in, welcome to Appleoosa, c'mon in, take a load off. Nice to meet ya by the way. The names Caramel, maybe if I decide you seem like a nice mare or stallion I'll tell you my tale.

What you are about to read is an alternative version of the scene where Opaline takes Sunny’s cutie mark. This involves Leaf, Lava, Tumble, Jade, Luxxe, Fountain, Blaize, and Spike.

Returning home from a busy day, an unexpected sight leads one mare to realize what it truly takes to be a friend, and what it really means to be “genuine”.

Love pulls and tugs at the heart, simmering lowly under its thin sheet of conception to only burst out and confuse you with it's unknown ways. It's a feeling one obtains, yet has always had. This is my story, the love story of Leafy Summers, and my slow decent into a complicated triangle of emotions that forever changed my view on the wretched word "love".

A story idea that was literally suffocating in the recess of my mind. I had to write it, and I swore I'd put everything I could into this one. It'll be my first real and unquestionable attempt since my story "Just an Old Ponytale", and that's been months ago. This is a first person point of view of Leafy Summers, a stallion who travels to the quaint town of Mareietta and soon encounters the two mares that will throw his heart into a conflict with itself, and forever change his perspective.

All OC's, just like I like it. Canon character love stories are too numerous in my opinion.

This is officially a Dishonored/My Little Pony crossover.

Princess Celestia, Luna, Cadance, and Twilight Sparkle are all rulers of Equestria. Rulers of a country that is often considered the most luxurious of the bunch. Before the plague, it was a thriving nation bent on creating, perfecting, and enduring the meaning of harmony. And attaining the mantle as the wealthiest nation in the world.

Yes, Equestria was something that even made many other wealthy countries cringe. That was all before the advancement of the plague from a not so great Continent; Europoniea. From there, that was the real end of the golden era for Equestria.

Suddenly you were filled with endless cries of agony, riots in Manehatten, lawless cities like Seaddle, and once rich towns like Dodge Junction. Bodies of ponies started to mount up, and ponies from all over started to shun the princesses.

Like as Celestia says, later becoming famous for quoting publicly; "Blame the rats, blame those putrid rats."

Authors note: I have officially written a crossover, don't be mad that this is based off a really successful game with a brilliant story.

After being in the dark for an undetermined amount of time, a light bulb turns on revealing a bare room. Exiting the room Twilight explores the vast, dilapidated stone halls which sit in silence; broken only by Twilight's speech as she roams the halls.

In Ponyville Twilight Sparkle summons the black city. The Agents of the Throne now must forge all their resources to stop the impending Apocalypse. In the deep jungles of the Amarezon a necromancer rises. Secrets will now be revealed that will test the will and power of friendship.

The memory stone was gone, and Wallflower Blush had the chance to start again. I'll guide her along the path that she never saw before. She'll see the beauty of it, she'll grow with it... I'll make sure nothing bad happens to her.

"I'll keep her safe."

What a joke.
