Diamond Tiara arrives at school one day with an, ahem, 'interesting' new addition to her wardrobe. The other colts and fillies won't rest until they've discovered the truth behind her new look. It promises to be an interesting day.
When the Crusaders are stuck with the least people they'd want to be with, they're sure they'll go insane in the snowstorm. But the results of an unplanned sleepover surprise them.
After the events of Crusaders Of The Lost Mark, Pipsqueak and Diamond Tiara have a little conversation. Surprises are shared, secrets are learned, and a scheming best friend is up to something...
Hmm.. Moth considers herself a bully, and consciously relishes in the torment of others. She knows that she is mean, and likes being mean. She even considers bullying her own sister.
A beginning for a potentially interesting character, but at the moment is rather unrealistic.
Scootaloo dragged the girls outside to a zipline. Sweetie was sweating with terror and Apple bloom was shivering. Locks just sat there staring like our cuz, Maud. You see, my mom is a changling and my dad is related to Maud Pie's mom, meaning yes. We are related to Pinkamenia.
I have seen other writers use the my-OC-is-related-to-a-canon-cast-member ploy, and in my opinion, it has never worked. This is no exception. If the girls are only changelings on their mother's side, how can they have full changeling powers? It would be much more interesting and engaging to see Locks struggling to control her changeling powers, even if they flicker out sometimes because of her having both earth pony and changeling blood.
" Yes Diamond, you and your friend can go now." she sighed. " Thanks Ms. Cheerilee." she replied dragging Silver out. " Hey. My sis is still working so, maybe we can, you know, get some smoothies at Sugarcube corner. Pinkemenia works there. She might give me a discount." I suggested. They stared at me. " You know as Pinkie.?" I snorted in disbelief. " Oh. Her." " Cool." they said. " Watch out!?!?!" Locks screamed. " Huh?" She zoomed past me green in the face. "Scoots, we're not zipling ever again!" the white one said. " Why not ?" she asked. " Nevermind." Apple bloom groaned. " Help me!!!" whispered Loxy.
The grammar, wording, spelling, and pacing in this was not only poor, it was on the edge of offensive. Remember that your target audience is not a group of ten-year-olds. Try to use a thesaurus for some more sophisticated synonyms, and spell check while you're typing. Try using the FAQ's writing guide as a reference next time you write a chapter.
5788499 My computer for some reason auto corrects without me knowing. Thanks for pointing that out though.:pinkie happy: P.s, another chapter is coming up sooner or later maybe later,but be on the lookout.
Interesting concept, but I think it may be improved upon. For example, I heavily recommend an editor for further grammar errors. Secondly, I believe the chapters need a bit more detail. Best of luck with your story.
I liked this.

* Takes a bow*
Thank you.
Hey. Please comment and reccomend to friends. Please. No one reads much of my newly made story.
Heart, (there should be a comma after heart)
"Did we miss anything?" the Cutie Mark Crusaders asked.
Try not to abbreviate CMC.
Interesting chapter!
How is Loxy going to react to this?! I thought, flopping down on my bed. His love for me is strong. Just like her love for him.
I think you would also do well to space lines.
Instead of:
"Hi!" said Pinkie.
"Hey!" Apple Bloom waved.
"Chicken!" Football screamed.
It would be:
"Hi!" said Pinkie.
"Hey!" Apple Bloom waved.
"Chicken!" Football screamed.
Yay! I was finally going to see the guards again! They're the best! Funny and optimistic, like me. A true gem, if you ask me.
Try to only use one exclamation point, no matter how excited you are!
"Hey, Loxy, where ya been?" asked the jerk Buzz.
"Back off, buster!" I snarled.
"Feisty today, aren't we?" he asked, imitating an Irish pony.
Add those couple commas, decapitalize "he" and "asked" and your story will look much better!

Improve with some commas:
Capitalization is important.
There's an E in "changeling".

I know words to say like whispered snarled gasped dismayedblah blah blah.
Hmm, not bad. Needs some spacing between lines and more description. My first fic was the same in it's first chapter.
Same as before spacing. Interesting concept for her sister though.
The chapters are kinda short, nothing wrong with that, bit I'd consider putting some larger chapters in later.
Hmm, I wouldn't relate my OC to a cannon character, work on your grammar a bit more too.
