Sketchy Clouds sat at her desk with her trusty sketchbook. A pair of glasses were perched on her muzzle as she scrunched her nose with thought.

The door to her room was shut. Unknown to the blue pegasus, one of her sisters was on the otherside of the door. The sister's horn glowed and she opened the door.

Sketchy glanced at her unwanted guest with boredom. "Hey, Emerald. What are you doing here?"

Emerald took one look at her younger sister before shaking her head. "I should ask you the same thing. You look bored."

"That's because I am. I can't figure out what to draw," Sketchy replied.

"... What if you write your drawings instead of drawing them?"

Sketchy pondered what her sister had said. Suddenly, she used a wing to fling her art supplies onto the floor. She then grabbed notebook paper and a quill.

Her sister smiled at her acomlishment. Using her magic, she quietly walked out and shut the door.

Sketchy then started thinking about what she should write about. She thought about what her sister had said.

"What if..."

And then Pixel Moon begun to write.

What If Twilight Was a Pegasus?

View Online

Twilight flew through the clouds, her eyes focused on the city below her. One building caught her eye, however. It was the one she was looking for as well.

Stopping for a minute, Twilight panted while her wings lazily flapped. Once she had caught her breath she quickly flew down to Canterlot.

Her eyes targeted on the library, inching closer and closer. As soon as she almost made it, she realized her calculations were all completely, and utterly wrong.

Instead of landing on the path of the library, Twilight ended up crashing in the Canterlot Castle. She groaned, and opened her eyes to see what when landed on.

Underneath the pegasus, Princess Celestia Everfree had a spoon in her mouth and a now crushed cake next to her. She sighed calmly before addressing Twilight.

"Hello, Twilight Sparkle," she greeted while scooping a non crushed piece of cake onto her spoon.

"Princess Celestia!? Oh my Celestia! I'm so sorry! I was flying to the library and I must have done my ca~"

Celestia had shoved her hoof into the pegasus's mouth. Twilight stared at the princess with wonder.

"How about I make you an alicorn princess and we forget about all of this, hm? I can send you to a different universe too, like I do to everypony else who lands on my cake."

Twilight nodded, and Celestia's horn begun to glow. After a few seconds, her horn stopped glowing and a horn was on Twilight's head.

The now horned pegasus gaped with wonder. She then lit her horn and a crown was summoned. "I am Princess Twilight Andromeda Sparkle now."

"That's nice," Princess Celestia stated while shoving her face in the crushed cake.

And then Princess Twilight proceeded to demand a crystal castle in the newly named Bookyville. Because reasons.

What If Spike Was a Griffin?

View Online

Spike awoke one bright and sunny day feeling a bit different than usual. He felt...slightly taller, and his nose felt out of place. Shrugging it off, he proceeded to get out of his basket, only to find that it was crushed.

Only now did he realize that Twilight was staring at him with her eyes wide. Her hoof was pointed at him, and so he took the hint to look down.

He didn't have scales anymore. No, this non-dragon now had purple fur. His head was light green with the tips of his hair a lighter green. Plus he now had wings.

"Uh Twilight? I think I'm a griffin now," he said to Twilight, who continued to stare with horror.

Suddenly, Twilight did the unexpected. Her horn started glowing and she shot a beam at the griffin Spike, sending him to the ground.

"TWILIGHT! WHAT THE F:yay:CK WAS THAT?!" Spike hollered. He tried to blow fire on the alicorn, but was unable to because he was now a griffin.

"WHERE'S SPIKE!?" Twilight shouted, her horn glowing menacingly.

"I am Spike!" Spike the griffin exclaimed while attempting to stand on four legs.

"Likely story! If you are Spike then tell me something I do in my spare time!"

"Uh... Well, you like to go up to a mirror and put on your crown and regalia and then turn the song The Great and Powerful Trixie on and dance around while singing off k~"

"Okay! Okay! It's you, Spike! But please, refrain from talking about that!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Sureeee, just make me not a griffin anymore."

"...but you're so cute like this!"

"No," Spike said while throwing a piece of his broken bed at Twilight. "Now go make me some breakfast. And this time, don't burn it."

What If Gilda Became An Alicorn?

View Online

Gilda offered another griffin one of her secret recipe cookies with an actual genuine smile. She watched as the griffin took it and shoved it in his mouth. He smiled and gave her some bits, to which she said she didn't need that many.

Meanwhile, Princess Celestia hovered above the griffons while shoving her mouth with cake. She was watching intently at Gilda precisely; watching how much she's changed for the better.

Princess Celestia decided it was time. Gilda the Griffin was ready. She had passed zero tests in her lifetime, including the ones at her school. But that didn't mean she wasn't smart, it could have possibly meant she just didn't try.

Celestia's horn glowed a pale yellow and suddenly the world faded away. A realm of stars appeared, and Gilda was present with the princess.

"Where the hay am I?!" Gilda shrieked attempting to fly out of the starry place.

"Gilda the Griffin," Princess Celestia spoke with a kind tone. "It is time for you to fulfill your destiny."

Gilda shrugged. "Cool. So, you're just gonna turn me into a griffin pony mixed thing, or what?"

Celestia shrugged. "I donno. I just have been stalking you lately and decided to give you a horn because that's what I do in my spare time."

Gilda gave a deadpan stare. "Okay..."

"Do you want a funny song or a genuine ballet?" Celestia asked while conjuring more cake up.

"...Whatever floats your boat."

Celestia coughed while throwing her cake aside after a few moments.

I placed cameras everywhere
And I’ve stalked you within my hidden lair.
Here’s my largest TV
A montage of Gilda
That proves you’re a cutie.
Some highlights from this hyped up pony show.
Did you know that you have giant eyes?
Plus you’re short
You will never reach my height.
I lost all my flat screens... This room’s full of ghosties.
I know I’m a hottie. But don’t stare at me
Or I’ll blind you with my wiiiiiiiiiiings~

And then Gilda then proceeded to become the first griffin to be an alicorn. All the while Princess Celestia continued to eat cake.

What If the Mane Six Were Dragons and Spike Was a Pony?

View Online

Twilight awoke one day feeling closer to the ground. She looked down and saw that her bed had been crushed by a purple scaled dragon that was herself.

She shrugged her shoulders and~

No. Wait. Twilight isn't that calm. Lemme retry.

Twilight started screaming because of the fact that she had turned into a dragon. And then proceeded to breath fire on pure accident because of this fact.

And then her scream was threatened by a more muscular voice. Well, not really muscular, it was just the girly voice of Spike. The poor non dragon tried to come running in but was unable to because he was not used to running on hooves.

"TWILIGHT!!! WHY AM I A PONY!?" Spike yelled after wasting a couple of minutes trying to run on hooves.

Spike took one look at Twilight before nodded. "Oh. So this seems to happen everyday now."

Suddenly, Pinkie came flying in with her new dragon wings with some cupcakes because apparently she's a dragon too. She also had raw batter in her claws that she was cooking with her fire stuff.

And then Rainbow Dash crashed into the crystal castle trying to be fierce. But that was not really easy when she was dragon with rainbows on her.

"THAT'S SO RAINBOW!!!" Dash yelled, breathing fire on Pinkie's cupcakes.

And then everypony heard Rarity and Fluttershy scream. For obvious reasons. And then a roasted apple tree flew into the castle.

Twilight had one thing to say.

"What the actual f:yay:ck?"

Rainbow sped through the sky really fast, three hundred Sonic Rainbooms following her butt. She has a horn on her face, and she was using it to amply her voice.

"I AM SO RAINBOW! THAT'S SO RAINBOWWWWW!!!"

And then Pinkie threw a magic cake at her and then quickly flew up to where Rainbow was and licked the frosting off.

"Bosoms," PixelMoon suddenly thought as she continued to write this weird story.

And then Fluttershy locked herself in her brand new animal castle that appeared out of the ground. Meanwhile, Rarity attempted to take over Twilight's castle.

"I declare war! And then I win! Your castle is mine, peasant!" Rarity shrieked as she poked Twilight in the chest with a plastic lightsaber.

"No, no you don't," Twilight stated with a bored expression on her face.

"Awe, why not?" Rarity asked while pouting.

"Becau-"

"BOSOMS!" Applejack shouted randomly.

Wait, no she didn't. I did.

What If Cats?

"Meow," Twilight purred as she appeared in a flash.

"Did you turn yourself into a cat again?" Spike asked Twilight while reading a Power Ponies comic and not even looking up because it happened too often.

"Meow," Twilight repeated.

She then made love with another cat in five minutes and then had a family in ten.

The mane six sat in their rightful thrones in Twilight's castle when suddenly a bright light filled the room.

"I'M THE ELEMENT OF LOYALTY HONESTY!" a voice screamed.

Applejack stood up from her throne. "Wat."

Suddenly, a unicorn Twilight appeared out of thin air with a Spike that held scrolls. "READ MY FANFICTIONS! I'M THE PRINCESS OF THE NIGHT! SO I SHALL DO A PUPPET SHOW!"

"But why don't you rise the moon? If you do a puppet show you can only force your friends and family to watch! But with the moon..."

Twilight the unicorn's eyes sparkled. "Yes, of course! Keep up the great work, Twilight Sparkle!"

"THAT'S SO RAINBOW!" Rainbow Dash from the bright light said.

"WATCH AS I WORK MY GYPSY MAGIC! EYE OF THE NEWT AND CINNAMON! WATCH AS THIS MATTER TURNS TO BATTER, OPEN THE PORTAL JUMP IN!"

"If Pinkie can do gypsy witchcraft, then so can I!" Fluttershy exclaimed.

Meanwhile, the cannon mane six watched as all of what you just read unravel.

But that was okay. There wasn't any dirt anywhere. It was just a hold she ate out of the new pudding ground.

"This needs something..." Pinkie stated.

She then gasped and pulled out sprinkles.

"There we go!"
