Sunset Shimmer feels mistreated at Canterlot High and wants to go back to Equestria. She asks Twilight to convince the Princess to let her return. Adventure ensues and possibly a romance between the Princess's student and ex-student.

Book One of the Accedence Cycle. Inspired by the Inheritance Cycle.

Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria, the peace of the land was maintained by a trio of magical beings called Alicorns. As beings of immense power - exemplifying the best traits of the three pony races: Unicorns, Pegasi and Earth Ponies - the three of them could keep at bay the beasts from beyond the Equestrian borders. There was a lasting peace.

Until one fell to darkness. He lost his beauty, his sanity and his conscience.

Nopony knew why it happened. The other two fought to subdue their warped, corrupted comrade, but in his insanity, he had broken the rules set in place by the three. By doing so, he had gained power over reality itself. So they fled, living to fight another day.

A thousand years passed, and many forgot the fall from grace. All they know is the tyrannical, insane rule of the King of Chaos, Discord.

And now, on the eve of the Thousandth Year, a young unicorn mare named Twilight Sparkle makes a discovery that will change the fate of Equestria forever.

A AU take based on Rated Ponystar's fanfic series The Assassination of Twilight Sparkle and it's sequel Aftermath of a Fallen Star.

Twilight Sparkle has been assassinated in a conspiracy started by power hungry nobles, Princess Celestia attempts to revive her but fails, but what if her spell worked? What if Twilight Sparkle awoke just before the Civil War begins?

The Holy Grail War, an ancient ritual in which Magi summon ancient Heroic Spirits in order to compete for an omnipotent wishing device. Every 60 years, 7 Masters are chosen by the grail to compete, and in Canterlot the 4th Holy Grail War is about to begin.

When Twilight Sparkle was a child, the only thing she wanted to do was become a great Magus that her parents could be proud of. However, after a traumatizing incident, she finds her magic circuits trashed and her body severely weakened. Now living alone in Canterlot City as the current head of the Sparkle family, Twilight struggles to learn what magic she can without her body destroying itself in the process.

Wanting to just live a quiet, peaceful life, Twilight was going to stay out of the Holy Grail War. However, when the circumstances surrounding her drag her into the flames of war by force, she must decide if she will stand and fight, or run to safety. With the help of her childhood friend and a powerful Servant at her side, the Grail War might just be survivable.

Sunset Shimmer loves Twilight Sparkle. Twilight was her first friend, the first one to forgive her. And yet Sunset rarely sees her. She misses her dearly.

This feeling in Sunset's heart soon turned to love, and nothing could stop this love from growing stronger. But a simple mistake, a misinterpreted exchange of words, could be all that is needed to stop it from blossoming.

Twilight Sparkle was no stranger to being called down to the Principal's office, and most times she was even excited to spend some time with Principal Celestia. This time, however, she was not so lucky. Before she knew it she'd been whisked off the Camp Everfree for four weeks as a counselor. With no interest in the so-called great outdoors, four other counselors who insist on being her friends, and one who wants a little something more, she may just be in for the summer of a lifetime.

Note; this is EQG humanized, so they keep their... unusual skin colours. Don't be alarmed by pink and blue people.

In the civilized world of monsters, Twilight is a teenage human who never really worries about things outside of school and personal projects. In fact, inside her gated community she's never even met any monsters.

One day when Twilight finds a vampire out on her front lawn, slowly burning alive, Twilight manages to takes them inside, saving their life and giving Twilight her first real friend. However past experiences with friendship has left Twilight nervous in this prospect.

Is friendship really not so scary? Even if your new friends are monsters?

Inspired partially by the Monster High idea and by The Albinocorn's story Sunlight, which I highly recommend!

Warnings- Slight Gore, not enough that would warrant serious warning, but I rated Teen just in case.

Orphaned from birth, with only the memories of a soft touch and gentle voice to remember her by, Twilight yearns for her mother. What pony wouldn't want to know why they were abandoned, why they were left to be found by the Princess of the Sun herself.

That was nearly two decades ago though. Twilight was older now, and hopefully wiser. She is happy with her two best friends, Cadance and Shining Armor. They are like family to her, the brother and sister she never could have. Though dreams still haunt the young mare, dreams of lullabies and tender kisses, she has moved on.

The personal servant to the Princess of Helios, the land of the Sun, Twilight enjoyed both rank, and knowledge. But it also means that when Princess Luna comes to visit her old friend, Twilight is given the task of tending her. The Princess has come in search of marriage, at the behest of her ruling Council. They demand an heir to ward off the potentially catastrophic attacks of the neighboring dragons.

Soon, Twilight will be tested and tried. She will be given the a choice between the life she has known, and the duty she is sworn to. But never, not once, will she forget.

For who can stop loving their mother.

Instead of banishing Nightmare Moon, Celestia successfully separates Luna and the nightmare, and both then seal it in the moon, but the stain of both acts are too much for the Princesses and both perish, but not before giving the prophecy of their return. 1000 years later is a changed Equestria, a splintered government, no advanced school of magic, difficult weather patterns, and a looming threat from the Moon. Can the reborn Princesses be found in time? Is friendship still the best hope for a happy tomorrow? The more things change...
