Terror In Equestria 3: Twilight's Conquest

by StormLuna

A Return to Normal Life

After four days at sea it was mid-morning when land finally appeared on the horizon. This lifted the spirits of everypony immensely, well almost everypony. Twilight's parents and Rarity knew it just meant they were all the closer to starting their long sentence in the dungeon.

When they finally reached land Twilight shouted, "Finally, Equestria! We're home!"

Applejack said, "Finally, we were running low on food and look, there's some of those apples that are so good. Let's grab a bite to eat."

Twilight said, "Yes, before we start the flight home, let's eat. Who wants to volunteer to levitate our prisoners home?"

Shining Armor said, "I will levitate dad home, he is fairly heavy."

Twilight replied, "Ok, I will levitate mom home then. After all, the kids should be the ones to levitate their parents home, even if they are tyrants."

Crescent Sparkle said, "Hey, just because you two are all powerful now doesn't give you the right to resort to petty name calling."

Twilight rolled her eyes and said, "Look dad, be careful of what you say. I can always extend that sentence you know."

Crescent grunted but realized that it would be best if he just remained quiet.

Applejack said, "Twilight, Ah can levitate Rarity back. She won't cause me any issues."

Twilight replied, "Great! Now we just need to eat and we can start our long flight home."

After they ate they started their long flight home. Initially they had a good tail wind that pushed them along but once they got past Dodge Junction they encountered a nasty cross wind that slowed them down significantly. Finally around seven that evening they landed in Ponyville to an adoring crowd.

Before Twilight could even get her mom set down she had Colgate fly down to her and hug her. "You're home Twilight! I'm so happy you're home!" said Colgate

Twilight replied, "I'm happy to be home too."

Colgate asked "How did it feel when you took over Alicorn Island and became the leader of the entire world?"

Twilight replied, "It felt good, very good. I have a feeling I know why you are so excited that I am home. Is it because now you can go back to being a full time dentist?"

Colgate said, "I hope you're not mad but yeah, that is a huge part of it but also we all missed you!"

Twilight said, "Could you and my friends go up to the dining hall and wait for us to show up for supper. Shining Armor, Dark Night, Thunder Rage and I have three problems we need to take care of."

"Sure thing Twilight." said Colgate

Twilight, her brother and her generals led their prisoners down to the dungeon. While Crescent Sparkle and Twilight Velvet went into their cells without any problems, Rarity proved to be a major pain in the flank.

"You monster," shouted Rarity "With friends like you who needs enemies?"

Twilight replied, "Who is to say we are friends Rarity? After everything you have pulled you should be glad I didn't have Luna banish you to the sun or me banish you to the void?"

Rarity replied, "Anything would be better than being locked up in this dungeon eating that mess hall swill."

Twilight said, "That is exactly why I chose this as your punishment. I chose what would be the worst on you. Oh well, if you three don't eat your food, Ice Storm will gladly finish what you don't."

Ice Storm said, "Thanks Twilight! You are the best leader anypony could ever have!"

Twilight replied, "Well I know your appetite is bigger than anypony else I know, even my brother and he has a huge appetite."

Shining Armor said, "Yeah, I always have had a big appetite."

Rarity shouted, "Do you know how awful these stumps look on me. They are a fashion disaster!"

Twilight replied, "What does it matter? Nopony is going to see them for at least 35 years anyway."

Rarity said, "What do you mean at least 35 years."

Twilight replied, "I say at least because like last time, your sentence will increase if you cause us a lot of problems. The same goes for you too mom and dad. Behave and you won't serve longer than I sentenced you for, you could even get out early. You misbehave, sass me or anypony else or cause other problems the sentence will be increased. Do you understand?"

Twilight Velvet said, "Yes Twilight, we understand."

Twilight replied, "You three are my prisoners, I would prefer it if you called me Dark Goddess Twilight."

Rarity said, "Fine, Dark Goddess Twilight."

Twilight said, "I don't know about you guys but I'm hungry. Let's go get some supper. Don't worry you three, Colonel Ice Storm, Colonel Lightning Wasp and Major Black Mist will be bringing you your meals. Oh and do me a favor, address them by their title."

Crescent Sparkle said, "So we have to address them as Colonel or Major?"

Twilight replied, "Yes dad, you do."

Twilight Velvet said, "I thought you liked things more laid back. Why are you so formal with us?"

Twilight replied, "Because you are my prisoners, that's why. Let's go guys, I'm hungry."

Twilight and her company headed upstairs to the dining hall just as the chefs were bringing in their meal.

Twilight said, "Wow, this looks so tasty! I had a lot of good meals abroad but there is nothing like coming home to a huge meal filled with the things I love!"

Colgate asked, "What kinds of things did you miss while you were abroad?"

Twilight replied, "Steak and pork chops! Apparently the equines around the world don't eat much of any meat. I have a feeling that only in Equestria do ponies eat meat and only in Ponyville do we eat as much of it as we do!"

Shining Armor said, "I know little sis, I thought that by the time we reached Alicorn Island, that we were going to shrivel up and not be able to finish everything."

Dark Night said, "I knew we would be able to finish anything but my hunger for meat was beyond huge by the time Twilight became ruler of the world."

Twilight said, "On another topic, how did you like my bed Colgate?"

Colgate replied, "Oh I loved it. Do you think you could have one like it made for me?"

Twilight replied, "Yeah, I can do that. We will have to make a trip out to Alicorn Island to get the materials for the mattress because that is the only place in the world you can get those materials so would it be ok if we waited a couple of weeks?"

Colgate said, "Of course Twilight! I could never ask you to go straight back out like that!"

Applejack asked, "So Twilight, are there any other things you plan on doing?"

Twilight replied, "Yes, there are. Before you go screaming over it, don't worry, it won't affect plant growth any and it won't affect the weather patterns. I plan on turning the entire planets skies from blue to purple tomorrow."

Pinkie asked, "What shade of purple?"

Twilight replied, "The same shade of purple as my coat. I have decided that since I rule the world now that it may as well match me a lot more!"

Fluttershy asked, "Where will you be going to do this?"

Twilight replied, "I will be flying around five miles south of town. This spell is going to require an immense amount of energy."

Starswirl said, "Yeah, I know it will. Chances are the ground will shake all over the planet."

Twilight replied, "Yeah, it will but I assure you all, it won't cause any property damage or result in any injuries or fatalities."

Rainbow Dash said, "Well that is good to hear. It would keep your image worldwide a lot better."

Twilight replied, "Oh, and the sunlight will have a tinge of purple to it as well."

Shining Armor said, "Hey, this is Twilight's world now. She may as well have it how she wants it."

Twilight said, "Yes, and that is what I will do. For now, I am horribly tired. I think I hear my bed calling my name. I'm off to bed."

On her way to bed Twilight ran into Spike, who was very happy to see her.

"Twilight!" shouted Spike "I'm so happy to see you!"

Twilight replied, "I'm happy to see you too Spike. Now that my quest is complete you will be seeing a lot more of me."

Spike said, "That is good! I really missed you. Where have you been all this time?"

Twilight replied, "Well what would you do if I was to tell you that I rule the entire world now?"

Spike's eyes got wide with excitement and he said, "I would think that is awesome! Is that where you have been, conquering the world?"

Twilight replied, "Yes, Spike, and I succeeded. I have stewards in various places across the world who report directly to me."

Spike asked, "Will I still be coughing up a lot of messages?"

Twilight replied, "Probably not, I can use that eye to see what is going on around the world and Luna, who is out on Alicorn Island, is the only one who can even send messages that way."

Spike asked, "What happened to Princess Celestia?"

Twilight replied, "It is a very long story, something that I along with my brother will discuss with you. I am headed off to bed, spending as much time abroad as I did, fighting battles, conquering lands and setting up stewardships is very tiring. I will see you in the morning."

Twilight went to her room and sank down into her bed and went to sleep. Twilight got more sleep that night than she had in a very long time. She woke up well rested and refreshed. She headed down to the dining hall and for the first time, Spike decided to join her for breakfast.

Shining Armor saw them coming and said, "Spike, you finally decide to show up for breakfast! I thought you would have been joining us the whole time we have been here!"

Spike replied, "Well with Twilight having all her military personnel here, I thought that she probably wouldn't want me here."

Twilight said, "Spike, you're always welcome for meals. Besides, we don't discuss government or military issues over meals anyway. Even if we did I wouldn't mind if you were here. I know you're loyal to me so what would it matter?"

Spike asked, "Who are all of the ponies here?"

Twilight replied, "Well the dark Alicorn is General Dark Night, the changeling is General Thunder Rage, of course you know Shining Armor, the blue pony with the white and blue mane is Commander Colgate and the bearded pony is Starswirl the Bearded."

Spike gasped, "Do you mean THE Starswirl that has his own wing in the archives?"

Twilight replied, "Yep, that is him!"

"Hello Spike," said Starswirl "I take it you are familiar with me."

"Yes sir! I thought Twilight said you passed away a long time ago." said Spike

Twilight said, "Spike, Starswirl and I will tell you more about this later as well. To be honest, we have a lot of catching up to do. After breakfast I have one more thing I need to do and then my schedule will be completely clear!"

They all had a very filling breakfast and since she had not spent much time with him, Twilight gave Spike a huge pile of gems that she had seized from The Carousel Boutique.

Spike asked, "What happened to Rarity? I know you two got into a fight and she moved away but will I ever see her again?"

Twilight replied, "I'm not sure Spike. I know you cared for her very deeply but as far as her ever returning, I doubt it. She even left Sweetie Belle and Opal behind when she left."

Spike said, "She did what? How could she just leave those two behind?"

Twilight replied, "I guess maybe that was her way of saying that she had no desire to return. Sweetie Belle is happier than she ever has been living and working over at Sweet Apple Acres and Opal absolutely adores Fluttershy, so maybe it was meant to be."

Spike asked, "Twilight, when were you going to go do that one last thing before your schedule is clear?"

"Now." said Twilight, "Go up to the balcony off of my bedroom and watch what happens. I think you will like it."

Twilight sped off to the south and Spike headed up to the balcony to watch. Once Twilight got to her desired location she thought to herself, "I just hope I don't do anything bad, like rip a hole in the atmosphere."

Twilight began to fly skywards, stretching herself vertically. She began to glow so bright that the light from her glow could be seen around the globe, her eyes were shining radioactive green, her horn was glowing a bright white and she recited, "Blue is the current color of the sky, but I can not lie, it is not the color I would try, a different color would be great, the color of my coat I certainly could never hate, for purple it shall be, forever and forever it shall be purple thanks to me!"

As soon as she finished reciting the spell her energy shot skywards, a massive explosion took place that shook the entire world, purple energy spread out in all directions, ultimately returning and closing back in on itself, causing another huge explosion. Finally Twilight's transformation was complete, the skies were purple, the sunlight was purple and the clouds were purple. When she returned to her tower she was beyond exhausted.

When she landed on her balcony she was greeted by Spike, who was thrilled by what Twilight had done.

"Wow Twilight, that was amazing! How did you do that?" asked Spike

Twilight replied, "Through a lot of hard studying. I feel like I'm going to die I'm so tired. I really need to get some rest. Could you go and tell everypony else I may be sleeping until tomorrow morning?"

Spike said, "I hope you'll be ok and I will get right on telling them that you need your rest."

Twilight laid there in her bed more exhausted than she had ever been in her entire life. She thought to herself, "I never thought transforming an entire planet would be so draining. But then again just until recently, I didn't even know it was possible."

The following morning Twilight was woke up by the purple sunrise and she felt as energized as ever. She looked off her balcony and said to herself, "Wow, how truly beautiful my world is! I can just imagine what the rest of the world thinks! I certainly hope they like it!"

Twilight was interrupted by Spike as he came to the balcony. "Twilight, I know you are admiring your beautiful world but everypony else is waiting on you for breakfast."

Twilight replied, "I'm sorry Spike. You know what I have planned for today?"

Spike thought it would be something leadership related so he sighed and said, "No, I don't!"

Twilight flashed a beaming smile at Spike and said, "LOTS AND LOTS OF SPIKE TIME!"

Spike jumped up on her back like he did in the old days and shouted, "That's great Twilight! I miss us having our together time!"

Twilight smiled and said, "I miss that too! Don't worry, there will be lots and lots of it from now on!"

The End

Comments

[jidbrony]

Oh boy It's here!

[StormLuna]

I know I wrote the words, "The End" at the end of this, but what would anypony think if I were to continue on with this, with other things the new Dark Goddess Twilight does, perhaps somepony, close to her or not, were to challenge her authority, etc?

[TheFerbguy]

That! Ending!

I'm now just realizing that Vanhoover and everywhere else are now entering a 99% chance of Twistorm.

Something better happen in the next story. Could it

[StormLuna]

3115119 The Ferbguy......I know I put the end at the end of this one but I am thinking about writing a fourth one anyway. I was going to throw something involving Commander Colgate in the third one but then I got to thinking, what if I want to write a fourth one and throw in a global civil war? That is all the more I will reveal as it will still be a ways down the road. There are a lot of things I want to do with Dark Goddess Twilight

[TheFerbguy]

3115216 Just saying that the ending in this gives me the creeps. and into consideration that every country in Equestria, if they start even a small rebellion, They will enter that Twistorm.

P.S. Their was a mention to Trixie in this, What are you paning to do with her once you write the fourth story?

[StormLuna]

3115230 It really depends. I mention Commander Colgate because if Twily and Shining Armor were to go on a trip abroad, Colgate would be in the tower and who knows, perhaps she would find a way into the archives......and do who knows what

[Mujaker]

I Would Like A 4 Season, But I Would Like to See Something More Q Fights And Military Policy, Also In This World Is Not Missing The Dragon Empire, Grifin And Sebra.

Can It The 4 Temp. Be A Relationship With Those Other Nations, diplomatically, And Prove Twili It Is Not So Bad As They Think.

[Mynameisamystery]

lol, i bet luna was like thinking
"TO THE SUNNN!!!!!!!!!"
Great ending though!!!
FINALLY an evil Twilight wins!
i always hated Rarity

so yeah, overall it is awesome
though i wonder what twilight is gonna do now that she has conquered the whole world
I give it a 11/10

[StormLuna]

3118304 Mynameisamystery......You want to know what Twilight is going to do now that she has conquered the world? I have decided not to end this series. I have started the 4th one this morning. Just wait and see!

[StormLuna]

3116799 Mujaker......There is going to be a 4th Terror In Equestria. I just started it this morning. You think I have Twily evil, well I am planning on having something that will challenge her greatly and make her seem not so bad, and yes diplomacy will suddenly become part of the story line....Don't worry, the stewards aren't going to rebel, her problems will come from elsewhere.

Twilight will go from to

[Mujaker]

3118745

If You Say You Want Make Colgate to Start The Revelion That would not make sense, Because Your CM is Being A Dentist As Your Destiny Has A Place, For Twili That Can Be What You Want Because His CM is Magic Nothing Specific

But It's Your Story, While Twilight to Finish Win. This Well

[StormLuna]

3119225 Mujaker.....Colgate will again be asked to be a commander in chief while Twily and Shining Armor are on a trip abroad. On planet Twilight, being an Alicorn means always being ready to be called upon to serve Equestria, and she is the one with the commanding experience. Kind of like how Alicorns in normal Equestria don't hold regular jobs, Alicorns on planet Twilight (well the ones Twily) created, have to be ready to serve, if they are not already serving as a steward elsewhere. I think you will find the results quite interesting.

[Mujaker]

3119827

What I Want Say Is What She Not Wishes would Usurp The Throne Of Twili.

But as I said is His Story.

[StormLuna]

3121393 I made Rarity like that for a reason, she needs to have a bad attitude going into her conflict in the fourth one.

[Mynameisamystery]

3118741
Alright
look forward to it

[Crulocrius of Honeycomb]

I want to make a spinoff in an alternate timeline where the two sons of LaurFa who have been at war for years team up temporarily to defeat twilight. The first is Armageddon, god of existence. The second is zelarnin, the god of new ideas. Speaking of which, any ideas?

[StormLuna]

3126069 I like the idea of your spinoff. Regarding any ideas, I decided that this isn't the end and am working on a fourth one. I would suggest regarding LaurFa's sons, to go into some detail involving why they are at war. I would say maybe have Twilight commit some sort of act of aggression against one of them and have the other put family first and join forces with his brother to go against her. That would wind up being the ultimate story of putting family first. I do have a question. In your story will LaurFa be ruling as a goddess or will she be under Twilight's control or even in the story. If you choose to have her under Twilight's control, you could have the two sons decide to put their differences aside to rescue their mom from Twilight and her influence. Those are just some ideas, it really depends on what you have cause the two sons to stop their war against each other and go to war against Twily.

[Crulocrius of Honeycomb]

3126395
They are warring because one represents the beginning and end and the other represents everything in between. Armageddon wants to bring about the end of days that way he is in control again. And yes, they put aside their differences to save their mom. A subplot I have planned is that the high priests of the gods are having trouble putting up with each other. We also get shining armors return to good in a ponification of tirions speech in fall of the lich king.

[Mynameisamystery]

3130780
wow nice idea
would look forward to it, and if possible, tell me the name of the story?

[Mynameisamystery]

3118741
oh and i have a tip for you
try not to focus too much on dialogue and other small minor details.
most important thing: PLOT DEVELOPMENT

[Crulocrius of Honeycomb]

3158397
I already have the tags and description, but it's really late at the moment. And it will be called " Terror in Equestria Alternate Timeline: When Brothers Wage War."

[Mynameisamystery]

3162415

Wow even the name sounds awesome
Good luck!

[StormLuna]

3162415 The name sounds great. Good luck with it!

StormLuna

[Crulocrius of Honeycomb]

3162705
P.S. the chapter names won't make much sense, they're lyrics to a song. The messenger by your favorite enemies.

[StormLuna]

3167479 I don't know what you're talking about but Twily has no sister.

[Crulocrius of Honeycomb]
