It's finally time for Apple Cinnamon to make a choice:

Does she follow her mother's footsteps and become a Wonderbolt?
or does she stay on the farm like her father?

Sunset is invited to a picnic in Equestria where she attempts to get to know the pony versions of her friends then is asked to open a can of creamed corn. Hilarity ensues… No wait… A trip to the ER ensues. That’s what I meant to say.

Part of the MAD verse.

This story is a sequel to Scoti Alaw Prewett

A new school year and hopefully a quieter one for Scootaloo and the Crusaders. Yeah, like that was ever going to be the case. Before it's even started Scootaloo's already been cut off from Equestria, been attacked by a desk, staged a daring prison rescue and thwarted whatever dastardly scheme Lucius Malfoy was concocting this time. Part of her is actually looking forward to going back to school. As long as they haven't hired another psychopathic nutjob as the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher.

Best synopsis I could do without spoiling anything. Lots of twists and turns ahead! Chapters read over and edited by rich-online. Plushies by Varonya (Discord), GingerAle (Fluttershy) and Sewpoke (Scootaloo).

In the wake of a great tragedy, Celestia opens up, and, for the first time, tells her own story. For the first time, she tells what happened with Discord and King Sombra. And, for the first time, she tells what it's like to have to give up everything she's ever had, everything she's ever wanted, everything she's ever dreamed of--all of it, for the good of Equestria.

Please note: this is an "AU-ish" fic--that is, it sticks to canon in most respects, except when it doesn't.

Unfortunately, not planning on continuing this story arc [Blog Post]. I hope you enjoy it nevertheless!

Rated Teen for mild language.

Nightmare Moon won. She defeated Celestia, broke the Elements, banished the sun. This all happened a very long time ago. So long ago, that she has had plenty of time to change her mind.

Of course, fixing our mistakes is never so simple, and never without consequences. Even with particularly potent help.

General Hooves has suffered through more pain than any other mare her age should even have to consider: her daughter's father walking out, war, being a single mom...

But nothing quite destroys her as the final words of a dying stallion does.

Set in an alternate time line of The Enamored Clock Maker.

At the assault on Canterlot, she was a medic, but not for the Equestrians.
After the assault is concluded, a new struggle for the Changelings begins as those who survive must still find food and shelter.
Will the Equestrians simply forgive the Changelings for their assault on their capitol, and if so how bumpy a road is this going to become?

Princess Celestia followed Sunset Shimmer through the mirror portal and became stranded in another world. Without her, Princess Cadance was the only pony left capable of moving the sun and the moon.

With the help of Zecora, Cadance learned to move the heavens, but as she brought about night for the first time, she accidentally released Nightmare Moon from her prison.

Now, with the assistance of Princess Cadance, Nightmare Moon rules Equestria. As the search for Princess Celestia continues, Cadance strives to reach the heart of Princess Luna, to restore her to the gentle and kind mare she once was, while Nightmare Moon learns what it truly means to rule a kingdom.

Equus has been overrun by a combination of changelings and hoards of parasprites. Equestria remains the only remaining bright spot left on the planet. Princess Celestia is confronted with a terrible choice. In order to save her little ponies along with many refugees from across Equus, she must sacrifice the population of a world which has done nothing against her.

However the planet that the equestrians find themselves on is not as doomed as they first believed.
