Twilight Sparkle is Princess Celestia's number one student. She is thought to be the smartest unicorn alive. A close second to Star Swirl the Bearded. Twilight is given a test. No ordinary one. Her test is to go to the Crystal Empire and protect it. This place is to be protected from an unholy threat. A demon made of pure malice that feeds off the fear of those it approaches, is attempting to reclaim the Crystal Empire.
It is Twilight's job to stop it.
She fails in doing so.

I await your rating.
Also, thanks for pointing that out. I'll have that fixed.
Crystal Empire better get freed soon.
4301098
Maybe later.
4301107 I hope so.
Hmm by the looks of the picture is this a Twilight turns evil story? Because if it is I'm totally all for it. I love those stories for some weird reason.
4301211
Maaaaaybe.
4301331 YAY!
4301404
You'll have to wait quite a bit before she turns evil though.
MOOHAHAHAHA.
Ummmmmmm......so far I'm impressed!
How dare you Sombra?! No one treats Fluttershy like that!
Oh right! I forgot one more thing. "ahem" LET THE PONIES GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm angry at Sombra still.
4307318
I asked Sombra if he will release the ponies soon. He says no.
4308127
That was the answer I thought he would say, for his heart is hardened like a rock! He also is so stubbern! In my opinion that is.
4308127
I'm still angry, very angry at Sombra right now. I mean, what did the empire do to you?! They feared you! That's what!
4310224
That question may or may not be answered in future chapters. Depending on what choices are made, there is a chance we may never know why Sombra enslaved the Crystal Empire.
4310491
Well, my theory was for revenge. Why? I don't have the slightest idea. It's just a theory like guess.
4311839
crap they know
4312111
What was that? "Crap they know" What was that all about?
4312252
UHHH
Nothing. Yupmhmnothingwhatsoever.
Maybe that dream is a prophecy? That Twilight would turn evil?
Forward! Avanti!
Rarity received the same fate as Shining Armor, crystals in her horn to prevent magic coming out.
Now the Crystal ponies will be slaves like they were one thousand years ago.
Maybe Sombra will listen this time..."ahem" LET THE PONIES GO!!!!!!!!!!
I doubt that he will listen and let the ponies go, but please ask him.
4334156
Sombra replies only with a hiss.
That probably means no.
And where are Celestia and Luna in all this?
4334502
Canterlot. Rallying up troops. What else?
4334240
So Sombra is a tyrant who relies on slave labor. I DON'T ACCEPT THIS!!!!!!
4334667
Wait, Celestia and Luna are going to fight Sombra like they did one thousand years ago?
4336653
Why wouldn't they?
Though, they aren't in their prime anymore, and Sombra has been working on his dark magic while he was banished. So it will be slightly harder.
4337166
Sometimes when things get harder to defeat I go like......
I just hope that the ponies are freed soon, this is pretty much why I have Sombra as my least favorite charicter.
4337166
Oh, by the way, why is Sunset Shimmer a main charicter in the story?
4337264
Oh, you'll see.
Later, though.
4337273
Ooooooh, I love surprises!
No offense, but you REALLY need to work on writing Celestia. This is NOT the way she'd react to Twilight failing. She'd be sad, not angry or disappointed.
4360153
I'll make sure to revise her.
4360153
I hope the updated version pleases you more.
Life for the badly battered insect
4361046
I agree, I think the changeling was forced by Sombra to spy out the group, and not let out a peep about the king. He was sort of forced by the king, I think. It's a theory.
4360287 Now that's more like it! If you ever need help writing Celestia, ask Celestias Paladin, or one of the mods in the Protect Celestia group.
4364333
Alright. Thanks for the links!
Oh, all those Warriors references. You also a big fan of this series of books?
Why did you give Quake away? WHY?!? Neko...
4403132
Yes! I am indeed a big fan of the warriors series. Though, I'm a bit behind on my reading. I'm only on the third series, second book.
Stay, definitely stay. Health is always more important. Also Rose Dust is kinda acting like a b****. That limp would only bite Twilight in her limping flank later otherwise.
She'll need to stay and heal, otherwise if they run into another danger, Twilight could be killed.
Stay :D
Wait, what?! Is that.....Fluttershy?
I vote for stay with the statue
4436886
But what about the group? I don't know, ether is fine with me!
4437285
I'm hoping that the pony she's with isn't just a hallucination and that she might give Twi some insight on her inner darkness.
