While exploring the multiverse, Princess Celestia stumbles on the true nature of Twilight Sparkle's existence... and the most ridiculously, hilariously dark timeline imaginable.
Will Twilight's sanity hold together long enough for her to learn what Celestia has discovered? Or will the Darkest Timeline corrupt what was thought to be incorruptible?

Happy Halloween 2015, everybody!
Cover art is an edit by the always impeccable Swirling Line of one of my very favorite reaction images.
Chapters (1)
What did I just read?
That was great. All the shout-outs to some of the fandom's worst stories, the cause of all the evil... Just great.
*notices that she's run out of popcorn*
"Nooooooooooooooooo!"
edit: I don't think I've ever been the first person to "thumbs up" a story before. Neat.
Okay....
Honestly, when I first heard this story idea I thought more of your grimdark-ish April Fool's ending for the Continuity.
I actually expected that the real twist would be that the "real" AJ and Big Mac were in a relationship, just not openly.
*snorts* That was great... Ah the Butterfly effect!
In one universe; Jade, Swirling, and Slendy munch away on breakfast. Jade drops his toast, and it lands jelly side up. He dust it off and eats it.
In the parallel universe, it lands jelly side down. The three look at it for a moment. There is a scream, "I KNEW IT!" And Jade attacks Slendy in a violent attack. Swirling sees this, and pulls out a large curved blade and gently starts wiping blood off it.
"huh... and here I thought that was referring to me..." There was a soft thud as her bag tipped over and a skull rolled partially out. With a tiny kicked Swirling pushed it back into the bag. As the knife was clean she put the blade away behind her back, and Jade pulled himself up to the table top.
"Well, the evil is dead."
"Yes.... dead..." Swirling's voice was a little too deep, a little happy, a little too sadistic and her hooves a little too twitchy with the pony killing blade....
-scratches head- So, what happened after in that one timeline? Did Nightmare Moon realize her mistake and brought back the sun, but only left it up for a few hours? Or did all the ponies adapt like they did in one of your earlier fanfics? Or did Princess Celestia escape and defeated her sister? Or are they all still doomed? I doubt the last one seeing as Fluttershy has lots of kids with different animals, unless they were all in the same womb and born on the same day. Is Applebloom going to live to marehood?
Jelly side DOOOOOWN!
The most hilarious thing about this is that Twilight is so brain-dead, it literally doesn't matter if the world goes to the dogs so long as she can keep to her schedule. A universal, constant light, certainly... but a very dim one.
Fluttershy's pregnancies must go by pretty quick to have that many half-breeds in less than a year.
Perfect.
6588567 Oh no, I'm not getting caught in the sequel trap again. That timeline will remain a mystery.
6591761 Very quick. Unnaturally quick.
6592315 Nooo!!
heh heh heh. Well done. I wonder what the catalyst for this fic was
Toast. The almighty decider.
6592315 That's so disgusting.
6597480 It's supposed to be.
Awesome.
This takes on a whole new meaning post Slice of Life. Bonbon's cover makes perfect sense, assuming she does assassinations for the crown as a side job to monster hunting. What better place to hide a body than in plain sight, cut up into bite-sized pieces?
I... I have no words. I just- what?! All this happened because of a piece of toast. I can't even.
I don't get it???????Toast??????????
MLP with the rules from Devil in play. Yeah I can see how that would lead to something that ridiculous.
Darkest timeline is best timeline.
And all it took was 30 seconds.
Also dawwwwww for Twilight being the light that shines across the multiverse.
