This is a re-imagining of Free at Last https://www.fimfiction.net/story/401389/free-at-last

One night, in a small apartment in Neigh York City, A little filly's music box plays a song...and a ballerina dances.

Okay...not gonna lie. I was perhaps...too inspired by various ballets and music box audios of classical music to make this. All OCs are mine and this story is over 1,000+ words of sophisticated nonsense.

Bath time in the Apple House leads to some chaotic moments for Buttercup.

Yet when you love your children, chaos is just all part of the job.

One of the many, many things that Lovey Dovey loves is good a carnival and the Summer Sun Fair in Canterlot is one of the very best. Popcorn, thrill rides, cotton candy, music, funnel cake, laughing foals, ice cream, happy crowds, and more cotton candy!

Fairs are not supposed to make you cry!

SPOILER WARNING: This story happens after the events in Crystal Wishes' Lovey Dovey and the Business Pony and Lovey Dovey and the Uncertain Stallion, and Anzel's Three of Hearts and Three of Diamonds.

Please read them before reading this story because it really will spoil them a little. And they're great stories! Don't spoil them!

On a rainy night, a particularly pink pony reads a seemingly cursed book and ends up evoking the wrath of a morbidly fat owl. There's also the other talking animals, questions about logic and suns but of course her involvement will change the course of the plot to something a little weirder.

(Something stupid I wrote when I watched Rockadoodle and a Pinkie Pie compilation back to back. Pure stupidery inside)

Stable. Calm. Orderly.

That was what Starlight Glimmer had sought when she set up her community, a place where all ponies would be equal in everything they had or did. No fighting, no competition, no cutie marks: it would be the perfect symbol of Equality by which the rest of Equestria would rally behind.

But one stormy night, a mysterious mare arrives to question Starlight about her beliefs, doubting whether Equality is truly what Ponykind needs. Surely such notions are those of an older time, and Equality is a future that Starlight can defend.

... isn't it?

This story takes place between S3 E13 “Magical Mystery Cure” and S4 E25 “Twilight’s Kingdom”.

Sink holes have been appearing around the Everfree Forest and even as close as the outskirts of Ponyville, so the Royal Sisters know that it is time to strike a treaty with the Diamond Dogs before their tunneling causes houses to disappear into the ground.

While they’re away, they have to deputise two ponies to run Equestria on their behalf and the only two with sufficient magic are Twilight and Nyx.

How will Nyx react?

Is she ready for such power again?

I Twilight Sparkle discovered an ancient book speaking of the dream realm which has, apparently been long lost. I will pursue this like any other good curiosity. There was something the book has not spoke of. I think it is the cause of the end of the realm's regular access. I have a bad feeling about this, but this is a venture I will not deny.

After a chance encounter with a bat species she's never seen before, Fluttershy gets bitten, and strange things start to happen. All normal food tastes foul to her, and instead, she thirsts for blood. As she slowly becomes more animalistic, her instincts heighten, and suddenly the feelings towards Rainbow Dash she'd been suppressing slowly begin to manifest. After a failed attempt to seduce her in order to feed, Rainbow Dash becomes committed to helping Fluttershy get well again while keeping her friend's dark affliction a secret.

Kitzumi Nova the fox pony is trapped in the past, and the only way home is to travel to another dimension. It's a world of wizards and witches, and because Princess Celestia wants to make sure she gets some magical education while she is there, Miss Nova will be attending Hogwarts starting First-year in 1903 and finishing in 1992. From there the story will continue as we follow the efforts of ponies to help Wizard kind despite themselves. Will the world of Harry Potter survive?

1/27/2021: So far I'm up to chapter ten for editing and most of the edits have been really minor, so I decided to go ahead and resubmit now.

The explanation for why Nova is going to be in first-year so long can be found in Nightmare Moon’s Daughter if you don't want to read the entire Kitzumi's adventures through the looking glass. or wait till I cover the reason in this book.

The time of 1903 isn't canon from the lore of Harry Potter but based on the original build date of the type of locomotive most often seen being depicted as the engine for the Hogwarts express.

The CMC arrives in the eleventh chapter. Nova rescues a troll from the crusaders from a troll, and then...

There will be drama, there will be shenanigans, and there will be the occasional breakage of forth walls.

The character of Kitzumi Nova Moon in this story while bassed on the character in my previous books actually represents a different individual within the multiverse who has been having similar if not identical experiences. My reasoning for making her a different Nova is on account of a number of continuity issues that will simply be too much trouble to fix.
