Aether Nexus


T

When Twilight Sparkles' latest magical test goes wrong, the main six find themselves back at the point where it all began.

Join the mini main 6 as they attempt to live their lives for the second time and work out why things seem so different. Oh, theirs just one problem, they’re all alicorns now, or kinda alicorns.

Inspiration.
First off, I'm a huge fan of the MLP Time Loop and Infinite loops, this is my idea of a time travel story.

As for the time event and title, my first thought was Superman flying around the world so fast he turned back time, I threw in 2013's Flash Point Paradox for good measure (no I haven't seen the new movie)

Chapters (12)
Comments ( 126 )

Ok I see a great story here and yes while things like this tend to happen a lot of the time this looks like it has something new and special to offer I'm excited good job.

The question is how many ponies or other creatures are back?

I like how this is going so far. I hope to see such promise in future chapters too.

Congratulations on reaching the feature box, as is deserved with the inspiration and execution in this beginning.

Even though Spike is a hatchling
, is he going to be involed in this story?

11649660
Yes, Twilight will be doing her best to be a better parent/ sister.

11649592
Now that would be spoilers

"Sparkle damn it."

That's a surprisingly apt curse considering Luna doesn't know that twilight caused it. Kinda makes me wonder what else twilight has done that affected Luna to warrent such a utterance

so everyone was reverted to the past or just the mane 6 and princessess? intresting. especialy is those who they dont what having another chance end up with their memorys and going about things diffrently

11649826
I will say this since it'll be answered very soon, as far as the main 6 are aware, it's just them,

Luna would disagree with them if she could.

11649976
an interesting mystery for us and a question for the main 6 of if someone has their memory or is actualy being effected by your actions. i look forward to it

11649826
everyone connected via the elements so at least everyone in the final battle of the series

11650062
imagine how pissed starswirl will be if he has to be rescued from limbo again

That was a good first chapter goodluck with the rest of it.

11650077
I mean as far as I can tell it's obvious that everyone who's been connected to the elements is aware of the timeline shift otherwise Luna would be Nightmare Moon right now I kind of figured out it was people connected to the elements because the author gave away that the princesses Celestia and Luna are aware as well even though Celestia never was mentioned directly in this chapter.

11650060

I may have a head cannon that Celestia and Luna spend time helping ponies adjust to their new demi-god ruler.

Who wants Celestia as their witness when Twilight is the one with all the power these days?

infinite loops? you have me inside man, I have read some of them that have given me good expectations and to be honest, I also want to create my own fic of loops in time

“Oh this is wonderful, though Equestria hasn’t had a need for the elements, Zecora’s group in Zebrica haven’t needed to use their powers in almost ten years. Would you please go over exactly what you plan to do with them?” Fluttershy asked as she attempted to delicately wake up her fellow pegasus, “or rather, what you plan for Rainbow to do.”

Hey that's actually a nice call back to the comic of season 10 not that many people use that as a fan fiction story which that's quite disappointing to be honest but whatever

This is the first chapter so far and I'm interested...
I'll leave a Derpy for now.
:derpytongue2:
(That means I liked the story)

Edit: I'm sooooooooooo sorry Sir/Ma'am but I'm not interested in reading the 2nd chapter, but you can keep the Derpy and the like!

Oh I hope you have more of this.

Oh boy we are in for a wild ride but maybe check your spelling a little bit better before you upload next time.

A lot of ponies are going to be mad at Twilight and a tiny bit with Rainbow. I see Discord eating some popcorn 🍿:pinkiehappy:. I wonder how other ponies react to seeing a filly turn into an Alicorn. There are a lot of filles in flight camp looking at Rainbow Dash during the race.

So much chaos and discord can’t take the credit. :rainbowlaugh:

Side note: Here is a video made by Magiepie on if the mane 6 where Alicorns/Princesses.

Update: with Rainbow dash as a Princess.
https://youtu.be/X0lHsEKD5XU

would be extra hilarious if Celestia is the only one that isn't looping like everypony else. Luna, Discord and Twi can absolutely troll her

That was a good chapter. Its nice to see Fluttershy and the others are getting their long overdue Alicornification.

11669996

Until I hit the completed button, there is more to come.

11670069

I do sadly suck at spelling, while I do my best to double-check and rely on spell checkers, please throw any issues at me, I appreciate constructive advice on spelling.

11670111

Stay tuned for Chapter 4,

11670148

I will neither confirm nor deny anything, I will say that there is some method of working out who is affected.

In a clearing, Fluttershy was now surrounded by butterflies, ducks, frogs, and many other animals, including a rabbit who was a spitting image of Angel Bunny, didn’t Angel Bunny die surrounded by his children years ago?

That’s just what he wants you to think. :trollestia:

11670421
Is the qualification anyone who got hit or wore the elements?

11690806
If you're asking for the exact reasons, then you're a few short, but the elements are indeed the main link.

woo discord
its a rare few fics where discord is one of the main characters (even though he's supposedly a "fan favourite")

2013's Flash Point Paradox for good measure (no I haven't seen the new movie)

In that case, who is going to be the Reverse-Flash?

That was a good chapter.

Good, but a bit short for a full chapter :raritycry:

11691661
I hadn't considered anyone having that role, but now that I think about it, I'd say it would be :pinkiegasp:No spoilers it'll ruin the story :pinkiehappy:

11691801
The next section was a little bit heavy, so I wanted it to be its own chapter.

11691661
With both parts combined, I give you the longest chapter.

I may be a bit sleep deprived so I'm going to sleep now

But wait... they dragged reformed Luna along for the time travel... what happened to Nightmare Moon? Also Discord, how will Celestia react once someone tells her he's gone!?

That was a good chapter goodluck with the next one.

11692669
They probably won't, I think celestia buried him and threw away the key.

"I’ve been sealed, encased in rock, and buried somewhere boring"

Ok… so they didn’t just go back in time they went to a very different Equestria. Very interesting, so not only will they have to deal with new bodies(sept twilight) but a new Equestria.

Or do they have the childhood memories from this world? That part was a bit confusing.

Like it so far, keep up the good work.

11692984
That's one of the questions they will be trying to answer,

To clarify, as Twilight mentioned Cadance was part of the faction opposed to Celestia, She has memories of this world, but not a lot since filly Twilight was mostly interested in books and her big brother than the general goings on.

11692638
Laughs in evil changeling queen bug, totally just Discord and Luna :pinkiecrazy:

11692638
I will reveal Discord's fate since it's not going to come up for a very, very long time.

in a very flat area of the badlands, there is a place where no life thrives and no vegetation grows.
Even for the badlands, this place is naturally warm.
Buried about 20 meters under, is a warded stone cube, made of dull concrete.
Its measurements are exactly 3x3x3 meters.
Inside that is the statue of Discord.

11693290
Ahh so she has NO way to know he's gone, and guessing he's stuck with Luna for now.

Interesting story. Added to my read list. :twilightsmile:

When are we going to see Spike in this story?

11698757
That depends on what you mean.

Spike will be in the next chapter ... but he's only a day old.

If you mean as an actual character who says more than "TA", there are ideas, but nothing concrete as of yet ^^

:pinkiecrazy: I wonder what other kind of magic spike can do with fire :pinkiecrazy:
