Matthew was a normal child when the end of the world happened. Darkness erupted from the Earth, casting demons onto the people of Earth. Matthew should have died when the demons poisoned his soul with darkness, but he survived.

He fought for humanity for years alongside others of his kind.
Humanity in return, cast him out and into the void with no hope of returning home.
Now Matthew will remain in the realm of Equestria for the rest of his days.
With some luck, he might just find the happiness he has always longed for.

Some slight swearing, but kept to a minimal.

When a woman is broken, usually that is the end of her. It would have been for me, but I have been given another chance. My broken body has been reformed into something new, something with purpose and drive. I now live to bring peace. I speak for it, I ask for it, I fight for it, and, if need be, I will die for it. This world has seen war for far too long. This beautiful world of color and light will know peace once more before I lay down to rest and rejoin my loved ones. My name is Michiko of the Takeshi family, and I am descended from the Emperors of Japan. I will not stop until my divine mission is complete.

BSGS: Birthday Scenario Games Stories: Taking your birthday, or a character's birthday/premier date, putting it into the numerous Birthday Scenario Games, and trying to make a story out of the insane results. Mine turned out an alicorn because of that, despite trying to avoid that. Not a Gary Stu or a self insert.

Verdant Flare. To the castle staff and guard, he's a strange unicorn that showed up not long after Princess Luna's return. To a very select few, for now, he's known as the Alicorn Son of Celestia, returned from wandering and exploring. To the Mane 6, he's a pony with less social skills than Twilight Sparkle.

But no one seems to know anything about him: Where he's been, when he was born, why he left, or even who the father is. The answers will be more confusing than shocking, sans the final one.

Discord enlists the help of a long forgotten friend with a grudge against the princesses. This is the story of how old actions have consequences and can lead to true Regret.
The Elements, The Princesses maybe even Discord Himself will learn that when you give a Human magic and Happiness that they will do anything to hold on to it
Or at least it's memory.

Equestria is still picking up the pieces after the defeat of Tirek, and everypony is helping out with the paperwork, even Rainbow Dash. Things change when Princess Celestia arrives, bringing with her a letter with some very stunning accusations of the exploits of a resident in the town of Oasis. Now, the main six are tasked with finding out if the letter was truth or fiction. Did this Mister Baker really do what they claim? Only one way to find out.

However, Mister Baker is not who, or what they expected.

Changelings and ponies had always been natural enemies of each other, especially with the crystal ponies when they were around. Why wouldn't they be? Changelings were like parasites, feeding off the love that ponies gave off and driving them to illness.

However, Changelings had begun to decline. What started out with as seven hives have diminished down into three, all of which had gone into hiding so well that most ponies didn't know what changelings even were. Even Celestia had not seen one for quite a while, a long feat for an immortal pony.

Until she found a nymph. A new Changeling Queen.

Unable to find it within herself to abandon the changeling, Celestia ends up taking the nymph back to Canterlot under guise as Twilight Sparkle. The plan was simple; find the hive that Twilight belonged to and return her back to be raised with her race.

Of course, despite everything she learned through her long life, she had forgotten that things were never that simple.

For starters, she did not anticipate herself to grow fond of Twilight as time began to pass, or to beam in happiness when Twilight began to refer to her as mom.

Celestia has become emotionally withdrawn and disconnected from her little ponies. The imprisonment of Luna compounded with the constant loss of any who got close to her, she has forgotten how to connect with another pony. Until a small, injured filly who is equally distant after the loss of her parents stumbles into Celestia's life. Now, both ponies will help the other heal and rediscover once more what it truly means to be a pony.

A 'Mommylestia' story, the concept of which has been in my head for some months. I will be sticking rather close to canon for events, the major differences are that Twilight's parents are dead, and Shining Armor is a few years older and already dating Cadance at the time of this incident. I plan to keep mostly everything else the same.

Chrysalis has won, Twilight is dying and everything looks hopeless. Still feeling the sting of betrayal from her friends, three powerfull entities visit Twilight's fading mind and offer her a deal. To not only survive, but to assume their mantle of power. Twilight accepts and is reborn as the next Queen of the kaiju.

This is all based on Snow Ghost Pony's, Kaiju Rumble. Credit for this wonderful idea goes to them.

How can Celestia refuse her mother's last wish?
