A long time ago, Twilight Sparkle, former Princess of Friendship and Magic, was banished to the Land of Twilight, a plane of existence where the Sun and the Moon stay in opposite places in the sky; never setting, always watching their only prisoner.
However, after one thousand years of imprisonment, the magical seal holding the plane together breaks and Twilight is set free... into a world that no longer remembers her, neither does she remember it.
Confused and lost in a mysterious world, and with ponies of dubious intentions aiding her, Twilight will have to find the only pony who can help her. And the only one she remembers.
This story is suffering 'rewriting'. Everything will be destroyed cleaned, some chapters will go into the trash and others will pop up and replace them, like changelings craving love. Characters will be wiped out of existence, orange ponies will be reduced to normal level of badass-ness and [DATA EXPUNGED].
Jesus Christ.
Seems very interesting.
I would like to see what happens next.
Janice's powers are inspired by Danny Phantom.
Gimme that cookie.
3560930 I will send it via mailbox, just wait.
3561060 Eh, just give me a follow instead, please?
3561099 It's not that easy, bad boy
(probably because I have only one follower and following other person so easily won't give me more, right? RIGHT?)Twilight had barely the enough strength to get to her hooves, but she managed to do it and looked at her surrounders, <--
I do not approve
Otherwise great story. I want to see where you'll be going with this.
3565426 Uh, you're pointing to a probably grammatical error or the fact that Twilight is too weak after being smashed for falling at terminal velocity (I guess it is more than Mach 1)?
Pst, she is an alicorn, a strong one. The only reason why she blacked out after Janice's attack is because she was weak after the fall, just to clear things
3565678
I'm pointing out a grammatical error.
It should be surroundings not surrounders.
Sorry for not making that clear
3568722 Okie-dokie-lokie! I'm going to fix it!
After I feel better, of course (damn it headache) 
3569812 You should have said is it not it is when you used it the way you are.
3571006 -Tries so hard to undestand comment-
Nope, I guess I still have problems with translating some things
3574588 Understandable. English is a hard language to understand. Use Microsoft Word to help out with grammar issues. DO NOT DARE USE GOOGLE TRANSLATOR!

Don't be hard on yourself, it took me a good 30 seconds to figure out what he was saying, goodness knows what it must have been like for a non-native speaker.
Maybe this will be easier to understand:
Quotations marks sure are helpful, huh?
Here, have a bit of editing:
""Hhmm, there is some absence, maybe the magic, the spark, is lacking here. Don't you think?"
"...magic... to P-P-Princess Celestia..."
Missed a space.
It's 1:00 AM here in Washington, so I probably missed an error or two (aside from "surrounders").
As is typical of non-native English speakers who I know, your grammar is actually far beyond many writers on this site and your spelling is almost perfect. Keep it up.
okay, I am so following this.
Ive long waited for a story where twi was banished and returns and now i found one^^
It was an interesting idea.... Till the shape changing ghost pony... and the princesses who are no longer connected to the elements, and Twi even pointing out they are in the tree, use the elements.... and they mistaking Twilight for a princess when they surely should know she isn't as there at X amount that everyone knows about and loves, so is an imposter/evil from another time that needs to be reported to the guard immediantly. Certainly not trusted and ok with instantly...
Shshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshhsshhssssshhhhhaaaaakkkkkeeeeeaanannddddaaaawwwweeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awsome! I knew this was goint to be come a fiction soon, nice tuch with the dannyphantom quote, the new twilight, and the next main 6. Oh and tell celie that clips is here. She needs to visit and old frend whom was lost 3 thousand years ago.
so are celestia and luna still alive?
3939203 Maaaybeee
I could be your editor, if you wish. SERIOUSLY, your English is bad and it needs editing from a native English speaker.
3946846 Thanks for just saying the bad part and not mentioning the mistakes so I could correct 'em
3947762 They're all over the story.
3949018 Normally I don't want to get an editor because they would have to wait for an update to appear, I don't think they would like to wait entire months for a chapter of, what, 1000 words?
3950583 I really don't care when the update comes, but rather the fact that it DOES! I'm also writing 2 stories at once, but 1 of them I need to wait for another story to finish and the other, well I just need some symbols to represent certain mythological creatures. Also, check out the group School for new writers for help.
Well...

One thing to point out: "Her Majesty," should be "Your Majesty" because the guard is directly addressing Luna. Same deal with "Her presence is required."
Looooooved this chapter, I cant wait to see how the rest of this storie will go/progress.
5438914 Oh
Fixing it now 
Is something going on with Luna too?
My head is spinning with so many question like why has Celestia disappeared, why is she apparently(maybe) blind and when will Luna remember who is Twilight, etc. This new chapter just got out today a few minutes ago and I already need to read the next chapter(that doesn't exist yet) right now
.
So I shall faithfully await till the next chapter with eagerness young Sir/or Madam,

a brown earth pony stallion with a companion named rose, who Luna vaguely remembers and who is also talking about history. Totally Doctor Hooves!
I've seen a bunch of fics about Twilight going crazy and doing horrible things, but I've never seen one about the nightmare moon style aftermath. This should be pretty interesting. Judging by the fact that Celestia doesn't seem to be around, I think that Twilight killed her.
So Butterscotch is a butter yellow pony with a pink mane... sounds a bit familiar. In fact, Rule 63 Fluttershy is usually named Butterscotch.
So is this a story about how the descendants of Twilights friends forgive her for whatever horrible thing she did? I like it!
I don't think you really have to worry about sarcasm any more than you already are, it only shows up a little bit and where it does its pretty subtle. Just keep doing what you're doing, this is awesome!
Is it just me, or does equestria seem to be in an eternal time stagnation, perhaps ponies' lives go on forever, without anyone noticing as it all blends together for everyone? It explains star catcher thinking she had always been gray (assuming it was cast by another pony) and why she can't figure it out, and why butterscotch remembers only doing his candy routine seemingly forever. And luna, being drugged out f her memory by ponies who have forgotten why they are doing it, all to keep the one immortal from putting the peices together.
Or, perhaps, twilight's unforgivable act had something to do with her friends, and perhaps star chaser and butterscotch are two products of said act, only they don't remember it.
5517957 It is not that she can't figure it out, Star Catcher knows why she is gray, and knows who did it. She knows why she drugs Luna.
And for Butterscotch, he remembers other things apart from his life full of routine (that is what he is complaining about; that everyday is a normal, boring day). The thing is, his past is kinda important to the story and his character, and revealing it now will kill it impact later (something to do with flames, as chapter one implies, saying more would be spoiling it).
5517957 I blame the lack of an Industrial Revolution.
5517837 Also where is Celestia? Luna was called Queen, and was rising the moon AND sun. So where is Tia?
I probably don't remember the story before the rewrite... but so far, it's probably better than what we have so far. Can we have the old version back?
5518029
I'm just postulating randomly, don't mind me. Lol.
5520096 Dear bro; please explain why you don't like the new version. It will help me in what I have to fix. If you miss the ghost pony that is Janice, then u will be surprised when I say she will be back.
And personally, I like the new version more than the old, the old was rushed and not well planned (reasons of why it ended up in a hiatus), besides the new one will have more worldbuilding and make more sense.
5520413 Well I don't remember anything from the old one, and since this replaces it and the old one was removed, can't compare them.
But what I have read so far is... well really really boring. Twilight wakes up. Twilight crashes. Luna doesn't remember some things but remembers other things like what day it is, she knows she can't remember some things and... doesn't do anything about it. Rule 34 Fluttershy that can 'absorb' fire and is just ready to see the world burn (I like that, show more of that) shows up and picks up Twilight..... And that's it. That could have been half of 1 chapter, but it's streeeeeeetcheeeeed out across 3 chapters, with nothing happening at all. Twilight is free, and...? I was kinda expecting more to happen than what was given.
edit: 14k words so far. and nothing to keep my interest other than the Description before the story starts.
5520602 It annoys me too. I just want to write one thousand words and publish it and then enter hiatus because for me, it is finished (in my mind, not yours). I made something so complicated that I find it a nuisance to write more than three thousand words just to lean my chair back, wiggle my fingers trying to diminish the numbness, and say "Pew! Finished the first half. Good work, Gaby. You earned an apple."
If I could, and I probably will do, I would put all of Luna's chapters in a side-story because writing her parts at the same time when I try to focus in Twilight's story is exhausting. Because, believe me, that would make the main story go faster than light.
Now I understand why writers, even doing rewrites of Season 3, or 4 of Doctor Who with Rose, tend to erase all the scenes that don't contain the main characters.However, and thanks to all the gods up there, I'm pretty sure the adventure will start in chapter three, if not four, when I have managed to tie loose ends and avoid future plotholes. And then I will erase Luna from existence the story.
Nobody cares for Luna, anyway
5520647 Luna is best princess.
But anyways:
Well that is common sense, even I know that and I am not a writer(and failed all my english/writing classes back in highschool). I think there is a name for it, but I don't know it. But basically it's don't mention or write something unless it's important. And everything that is mentioned, is important. For example, if the Author has a character reading the names of 5 books, each one will be foreshadowing something later in the story. Such as having one named "How to slay a Dragon!" then later in the story, the characters have to slay a dragon. Foreshadowing!
But anyways, that is why people that rewrite episodes or seasons, leave out things. Because they aren't needed or important to the story.

If I had to guess, Twilight killed her before she was banished
is the story dead?
I'd like to be able to compare to the original version.
Welp, this is another maybe-dead story to put on the “incomplete” list in hopes of a new tomorrow.
I like the premise, and not knowing the old version I do like this one. If you ever pick this back up I hope to be there with you, so I suppose this is goodbye, for now.
I've been checking on this story every now and then over the years and this is the first time since I lost my old account. If this story is dead could you do me a favor and reply as such or simply mark it as cancelled? I've been holding out hope for a while now and I don't want to keep checking every year. Thanks.
