Twilight Sparkle had always been great. A great student. A great friend. A great leader. And a great teacher. But that all changes the day her friends die and she finds that the Elements are no longer under her control. A haunting past and an uncertain future leaves Twilight feeling like she has nowhere left to turn, but maybe there's somepony who can change the present and make a better future for everyone.

Might be updated with the intended ending someday.
