Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
The Twilight We Miss (Or at Least Tolerated)
Author's Note
I worked hard on using more dialogue more than I usually do, and I hope you all enjoy this story!
The Twilight We Miss (Or at Least Tolerated)
Twilight Sparkle stared intently into the realm of necessary survival , studying its very essence which she had been doing for hours. But that’s just what she called sleeping, no worries. She wanted to always be productive, and sometimes (okay, maybe lots of times) preferred her studies over sleep. So, she just called it that to persuade herself to get the necessary sleep for the day to, well, survive. But she would never admit that she called it that. Anyways, now it was time for her to get up for the special day.
Meanwhile, Spike was still sleeping in his little dog bed that Master Twilight (he didn’t like to think of her as an adoptive relative) had given him years ago. Though he was a dragon, he was still a baby, and was quite small. He was sleeping peacefully, until she woke him up, that is.
“Wake up, Spike, you little sleepy head. It’s five in the morning already. You know what today is!,” Twilight -- Or Master Twilight, said.
He moaned, because she usually woke him up at least close to six, instead of five, in the early part of the morning. But as he searched his memory, he couldn’t remember what was so special about today. Perhaps it was another one of her exotic experiments. Or maybe one of Pinkie Pie’s bigger parties.
“What’s so special about today, again? I don’t remember anything special on our agenda,” the dragon said as he slowly got out of bed.
Twilight sighed. This was the anniversary of her becoming the Princess’s -- or one of the princesses’s apprentice. But of course, she was patient with him about it.
“Remember? It’s the anniversary of me becoming the Princess Celestia’s star student. So today, I want to try to do a ton of studying, and maybe even discover something new in the laws of science! Hooray!”
“Well, if you say so, Twilight. But most ponies take a break from their studies on days like this. And you’re also starting to sound a bit like Pinkie. Also, your studying has never really helped you discover anything that amazing before. But good luck anyways.”
Disappointed, she pondered this a moment. After all, the most that she had done before was memorize spells, and utilize them. And the occasional combined spells that she had invented. But she had pulled elements from others. Maybe she would never be as good as the legendary Starswirl the Bearded. But then, she remembered that it was early, and that her helpful assistant was still drowsy, and the sun wasn’t up yet. Maybe she would someday be a legend of discoveries.
As they started getting ready for the day, she still had it at the back of her mind. But it was still time to do some intense studying. And so, she brushed her hair, then got her quills, ink, and parchment out. Then, she grabbed a book, and started to read.
Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
As Twilight Sparkle looked at the riddle that she had found, she was perplexed, still trying to figure it out. It had no logic to it that she could see so far, and it looked like Pinkie Pie had helped write it in a few parts. So she read it, yet again, in hopes of making sense of it.
Every room has four walls, including ones in the shapes of squares, pentagons, and circles. Three are of regular life, and the fourth is of adventure, following down an unknown path. You can speak to it, and others may think you’re crazy. But you get an answer back, and not just in your head. Yet others can’t hear it with you. You begin to explore it, then try to make tons of friends in the other three walls. You try to show them the fourth wall, but they never seem to catch on. Slowly, but surely, you can learn go through it, experience life with those from another world. Into a world of adventure they will go, yet will in time lose the sanity once inside your head. No one has explored it, except maybe those who have known it for a lifetime. Beware the wall, yet also, run towards it if you can.
She wrote down some notes about this, then decided to stare at the walls in the room, thinking that perhaps that would help. But she didn't find anything. So, suspecting Pinkie, she decided to walk over to the bakery. The one that her friend had worked at. BecAuse of some suspecting times in the past...
Author's Note
The end of the chapter was on purpose. The thing is, maybe I'll make a prequel sometime...
Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
Twilight Sparkle wasn’t studying, or even here for that matter, and she had forgotten to tell Spike that she was leaving. And he didn’t even know what she was studying. But then, he looked at the book that she had been reading.
“So, basically there’s these three walls of life, and a fourth of insane adventure? This is crazy!”
Then, he heard her voice shouting at him.
“Hey, Spike! I’m at Pinkie’s place, and am using the fourth wall to talk to you! This is awesome!”
Okay, now this must be serious. This was an emergency!
“I can also read your mind now, Spike! The narrator is telling me what you’re doing! And yes, I’m perfectly fine. This is not bad!”
Spike ran as fast as he could in the direction of Zecora’s place.
Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
“
“
Then, .
“ Blah, blah, blah. So, I, Twilight Sparkle, has created a boring chapter!
Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
Then, as Spike headed for his destination, Zecora prepared for a serious battle.
“Wait, where’s Spike going? I think I forgot to check. Oh, well I must have changed it.”
Okay, Twilight. why do I even bother doing my job as the narrator if you’re just going to interfere? Now let me just deal with you. No, I will not tell you, because it appears that you have gone a bit loony.
“But, what if I give you something with quite a bit of value to you?”
Like what?
“Perhaps, this story could become, well, featured .”
How do you know you’ll keep your promise, anyways? I’ll maybe accept that deal, but this story must actually be featured first.
“No, tell me now, or I’ll go to the mirror pool and take advantage of you anyways.”
Well, I will just entertain you now. Okay, so now discord is going to help her out. And how ironic. I´ve been listening to a song that you can find in the comments...

You just might be able to affect the story in the comments. Just don tell Twilight where Spike is!

The Filly Opowatonyal Disese (Filly's Disease)
Twilight Sparkle went back in her mind to her thoughts. She had dampened spirits, and couldn't think strait.
I cawon't twink strait.
"Wait,wait,wait,wait,wait! Why aren't my worwds purple, and why are they italics! And why is it that half the time, I can speak normally, and the other ha-wlf I'm tawking loke un-a fiwwly!?"
You see, you've caught Filly's Disease. And those are just some common symptoms, from being around a paradox that isn't really all that simple to explain. Also, I'm the writer, so I can switch up my ranks and yours with the colors and the cool writing tools. So, yeah.
But where's Spoke? I meant, Spike? And please don't switch up- mwo voce! Hey!
He's fine. Anyways, Pinkie was confusing me for you! I was the one behind this. You're just a helpful character.
Wait, so how come I haven't had more of a role with this fourth wall? And isn't the very existence of existence supposed to have fallen apart or something And shouldn't I have Filly's Disease too by now?
No time to insert logic, Pinkie!
Why did they have to- waiting... Change my voice from an easy... Puwple! Ugh, Yu changed my voice again!
Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
I’m bored! And I still don’t know why I’m the only one with common sense around here! Wah! Anyways....
She started to eat some floating onion rings that came out of nowhere, and then gulped them down quickly. Then, she sand a song that made everyone confused, or at least ~~I think so, like am I right or not?~~ After the other secret narrator said this, Pinkie sang a confusing song over the fourth wall speaker, saving the day!
And then, the people came over to my house! So, I sold it to them! Ha! Anyways, let’s go get some McDairy-Subway King! Then, I dug one thousand holes! What would be a goo-ood way to say yay without saying why?
Then, she bowed to no one, and sang the last line of her confusingly meaningless song.
On a FridAAAy’s trust bank account that supports the economy!
Author's Note
Well, then... Anyways, the floating onion rings are shown here, and I had some Scootaloo clones too for some reason...

“Day one: still no explanation of all of this madness. My star student has become a filly and reality has collapsed- or something.”
“Dearest sister, this is not helping. I don’t think anyone will be able to find this and help us. Unless-”
The blue princess took her magical hair clip out of her hair. Zecora had once told her that it could visit a pony’s imagination-not just their dreams, but also their daydreams Just in case.
“What is it, Luna?”
“I think that the best course of action would be to hope that Twilight is being imaginative- and visit her daydreaming, if it’s possible, even though we don’t know about anything of her having become a filly.”
“Yes, that might work. Just promise me one thing.”
“And what is that, Tia?”
“Just promise me that we’ll stay together. It may sound silly, but you tend to help with dreams and stuff. And she’s awake. So I think it best we not break up.”
“Okay, then. Here goes nothing.”
There was a flashing of blue light from the blue pony’s horn, and they were gone.
Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
Meanwhile, Somewhere on the Planet Earth...
Lydia looked longingly out her window and sighed. She was a huge fan of My Little Pony, and was feeling sad because she still hasn't gotten to meet Twilight or any of her friends. Even though she was only twelve years old, she wanted to be able to make great fan fictions and drawings like others had before.
"Okay, I'll just face it. Maybe I'll- never really get to meet any of them. But I have to. Or at least I'll pretend to. I don't need to go to a job everyday, so there's still a chance that I could get lucky. Wait, what was that sound?"
Turning around, she saw a baby Applejack drooling on a drawing that she had worked on for hours that had Twilight Sparkle in the middle of it, and tons of other ponies around her. Not knowing quite how she felt in the moment, or what to do, she was speechless. She immediately hugged filly Applejack, so happy to see them.
"But wait, how did you get here, and why are you a filly?"
"Huh? Whew's gwanny smih? I don't know either. I just visited Pinkie Pie... Ugh, whyw does my voce keep changong to a flwwy!”
Confused yet excited, she tried to figure this situation out.
Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
To clarify, ~~as the secret boring, non-storyline narrator~~, purple is the chaotic narrator, and italics are the not-quite-as chaotic Twilight Sparkle. Now, onto the story.
"Hi, I'm Derpy hooves, and I believe in character development. Considering that I deliver tons of mail from the human world to Equestria and back, I think that something is up, like our lives perhaps being scripted, or set up as just an act. You may not remember me out of all of the ponies that you meet daily, but as a famous person, I believe that you should share this, because they will listen to you. Just please tell everyone, Princess Luna."
I'll remember that for a long time. And this is the real life, by the way. You aren't just dreaming. I'm sorry.
"Okay then, stranger voice! I'll go find someone else to tell!"
I'll just tell you this; you are right. But you can still change that! Be inspired! Find Applejack! You can fix all of this!
"Why are you supporting me?"
You'll see...
Author's Note
I will try to develop the story more within a week or two, but need some time to think of good ways to continue it. Thank you for reading this random story so far!

Twilight Sparkle Tries Out Tyrant
“Now that I know where Zecora is, I shall do a magic duel with her! Oh, and I guess that Discord would be a nice statue. Then, I shall...”
Then, she turned into an anime version of Twilight Sparkle.
“Go to the human world and try to talk with Spike first!”
Spike heard Twilight Sparkle Humming.
“Hey Spike, some people that call themselves ‘bronies’ let me borrow their TV! It’s fine!”
“Please, stop. This is worse than my worst nightmare!”
“Stop quoting Fluttershy from that one ‘My Little Pony’ comic! If you want, you can go to the human world with me!”
Foosh! Spike slipped in the desert sand, collapsing in the sand. Then, Twilight Sparkle heard something odd.
“Stop, I’m Pinkie Pie from the future, and you, Pinkie Pie, should never tell Twilight Sparkle about the fourth wall, or about the human world! She’s become an evil tyrant that makes Nightmare Moon seem like a harmless filly!”
Then, existence itself exploded from the paradox.
Guys, please help. I don’t know what reality I should create out of this now.

Ooh, is This Story About ME!?
As Twilight Sparkle trotted over, she finally saw the humble bakery, that had tons of delicious pastries inside. And her mysterious (but not dark) friend.
"Hello, Mrs.Cake is Pinkie P-"
She was cut off by the pink pony that she was looking for.
"Hello, Twilight! I have been waiting for you, because the narrator told me that you were coming! In fact, I'd love to show you the fourth wall! Follow me upstairs!"
Then, she reluctantly followed, feeling weird. As they walked up, however, she realized that she knew about this fourth wall. She had definitely found the right pony. And Pinkie was definitely not a normal pony. Then, she saw the pink pony take her to a TV in her room.
"These are humans, Twilight. They spy on us all time, but it's fine! They love us, and sometimes, I talk to them, or break the fourth wall to see them back. But they don't all watch us. It's kind of like Spike with his Power Ponies. Go ahead, say hi!"
"Uh, hello humans. It's nice to meet you all. So, this is just a story about us ponies?"
Then, she heard a reply in tons of voices.
"No, it's about you! But Fluttershy's great, too. And your other friends."
"Yay! This Story is about ME!"
Twilight said this is a way very much unlike herself. Then, she giggled in a pony like way.
Say Hello to the New Twilight (Run!)
What really happened
“Spike, it looks as if you just took a difficult hike.”
Then, the zebra let him in. Next, he explained everything to her, trying to not be specific enough for Twilight Sparkle to get him.
“I’m worried about this one P-U-R-P-L-E, S-M-A-R-T pony that has been stalking me for about an hour. Please help.”
Then, with a wink, Zecora started to think.
“Hide in the desert that is wide, then got to the sea of the west tide. I will help so there is no need for you to yelp.”
And so, he started to make his trek, trying to get as far from his former master as possible.
Author's Note
Twilight Sparkle manipulated this in the past chapter, so she doesn’t know what just really happened.

Luna's Timeless Adventure
Princess Luna was about the visit the dream of her older sister, when the reality-like world of dreams practically collapsed. Thinking quickly, she ran into her sister's dream (of talking with her prized pupil), used her magic to pick Tia up, and teleported both of them to a secret place that she would only go to in an emerge cry like this.
"Luna, where are we? I was just- oh."
Luna nodded. They both had a silent promise to each other that the younger sister would be wearing a tiny blue hair clip whenever She was visiting the ponies' dreams- just in case. It was located on one of her small magical bangs, and her sister hadn't noticed it until she looked strait at her sister.
"This is a special place that I have created for myself, for if something tragic were to happen, and something just did. I couldn't understand it, but it appears that this dream world has collapsed. And perhaps even- in Equestria."
"Oh. Well, today Twilight was supposed to write me a letter, but she didn't. I just hope that the two situations aren't related."
Then, Luna heard a distant voice.
"Uh, Pwincess Celestaya, can you heaw me? I don't know what's happwening."
"Wait, I think I just heard the faintest of whispers. I think that I just heard a filly Twilight Sparkle trying to call for you. This could be serious."
Author's Note
I just couldn't resist doing the little filly voice in my head. So, there you go at the end.
