Luna watched the knife as it spun in the air. It would be so easy to knock it away. But she couldn't. Not when four horns pointed at her, waiting for her answer.
TW: mentions of rape (not explicitly shown but the aftermath is.)
Equestria is peaceful.
Everything is perfect. Or at least, it will be. Every little event will go exactly as planned, and life will go on in nearly perfect harmony.
With only one, teensy, tiny bit of a miscalculation.
It has been a thousand years since the shadows of Equestria were cast back into the void from which they came, with broken dreams mended or forgotten and scarred hearts healing ever so slowly, the whole world itself had more or less moved on with the needless marring on its own history, and evolved to be far more peaceful.
But they didn't catch every bit of darkness.
A thousand years later, not a King Of Darkness, not an heir, not a tyrant, but a lost little 'prince' returns with nothing more than his forgotten title and a few scattered subjects, and with his return, it would seem as if the worlds turmoil begins once more, as the princesses suddenly disappear.
Now follow the aftermath of a thousand years of hiding as Twilight Sparkle and the mysterious new interloper descend into the shattered vault of a long forgotten people. One, trying to piece together the history of a new world, the other only trying to plunder it.
This story will be a reboot of my original story with an entirely new direction and story. We delve into the life of a peculiar farmer woman, thrust into a foreign world through some cosmic mishap. Clearly out of place, she finds herself devoid of the ability to sense the presence of anyone familiar. Instead, she keenly perceives the gazes and whispers of the forest enveloping her. Lost and directionless, she struggles to find her bearings amidst this unfamiliar terrain.
We all know how Celestia and Luna defeated Discord and earned their ascension to the throne, but not all of us know about the ponies who thought to challenge him before. Young, naive, and bold, a simple country unicorn decides to make the journey and challenge Equestria's new tyrant.
Heavily inspired by The Metamorphoses, "Paradise Lost", and ancient Greek tragedy.
A forgotten food chain makes their burning return. One that’s drastic for the unicorns. One where Alphabittle has to witness a battle where he loses, no matter what.
One that is tragic for many
Note: Eggingtons does not exit and any similar names is a coincidence. I had taken inspiration from a series of fast food stores, but so much had changed that you may not recognise it if you knew which one
Diamond Tiara regrets many things in her life. She meets with Apple Bloom, by chance, at a Manehattan coffee shop and pours her heart out to her old enemy-turned-friend.
Sometimes life just doesn't turn out like how you want it.

Twilight enjoys a relaxing sunset with Anon. The moment is perfect.
Well...
Except for that gnawing.
Sunset Shimmer and her friends all get together to help Sunset pack up her home, move out, and go through some of her old boxes to see what she wants to keep, trash, or donate.
Starting with the attic, the girls spread out to work faster. Sunset happens upon an old box of toys she had as a foal, and they bring up some uncomfortable, sad memories she swore to forget, simply because they were too painful.

Very little was changed. I only added more detail once the competition wrapped up.

An alternate universe story.

However, she does something that not only causes her to lose her reputation, but make her loved ones fear her.
Tirek, Chrysalis, and Cozy Glow have been defeated and for years everything was peaceful but now years later and while Twilight has ascended to the throne, she begins to get weird reports out from ships and it's making her worried, and she has the right to. She will need all of her friends for this one because they witness one of the greatest and mightiest monster that they have ever laid their eyes on.
