Chapter One: Welcome Home

Twilight Velvet holds her two newborn twins she can't believe that her and Night Light are finally parents.

"Look how beautiful they are..." Twilight Velvet smiles at the newborn babies.

"I know honey someday when they get older they'll rule Equestria together." Night Light smiles.

"I'll name the dark purple one, Twilight Sparkle." Twilight Velvet says with a smile.

"And I'll name the light purple one, Twivine Sparkle." Night Light also says with a smile.

Night Light kisses the two newborns' foreheads.

"Welcome to home and earth Twilight Sparkle and Twivine Sparkle." Twilight Velvet also kisses on newborns' foreheads.

A couple of months have passed and the twins are now 5 months old. Twilight Sparkle crawls to Twivine and opens her arms wide, but Twivine crawls away, leaving Twilight confused.

But their older brother, Shining Armor, picks up Twilight. "What's the matter?"

Twilight stares at Twivine.

"Oh, you wanted to hug your twin sister but she didn't accept it." He sighs. "Maybe give her some space." He puts her down.

Twilight pouts, but then crawls towards Twivine again, and she hugs her.

Twivine tries to get away from Twilight's grip but fails so she gives in.

Twilight laughs, hoping that her and Twivine's relationship never ends.

3 years later the twins are in their rooms, Twilight is reading a book, while Twivine is practicing her magic. As she practices her magic a vine comes out from the ground and she gasps. "What the heck?!" She shouts.

Twilight looks confused. "What's wrong?"

"I tried to use magic but all I get is a stupid vine!" Twivine explains.

"Don't give up." Twilight tries to cheer her up. "Maybe try harder."

"Try harder?!" Twivine snaps. "I've tried harder, but no matter how hard I try nothing works!" She shouts at her. "It's not fair! You get to actually use magic! While I have to use the stupid vines as so-called magic!" Twivine sits as tears roll down on her face.

Twilight feels bad for her and puts her hoof on her shoulder. "Sister, it's okay nopony is perfect, not even me." Twilight tries to cheer Twivine again but fails and Twivine smacks Twilight's hoof away.

"Oh, but you're not perfect huh?" Twivine stands up with an angry expression. "You're always perfect, you have perfect magic, perfect grades, everything! You're just so... So... Greedy! You never appreciate everything that you do! You're always busy with Mom and Dad making me feel left out! It's not fair!" She shouts once more.

Twilight sighs. "Well, I'm trying to be there for you, and besides we have the magic test from Princess Celestia that is coming tomorrow maybe you can finally be Celestia's student!" She tries to cheer her up one last time. "If you just trust me, Twivine. I promise everything will work out. And maybe we can even rule Equestria together in the future."

Twivine stares at Twilight. "And what if it doesn't work?" She asks. "What if I become a villain? What if I hurt you?" Twivine starts to tear up again and sobs, and Twilight pulls her in for a hug.

"Then we'll just have to try harder." Twilight puts her hoof on Twivine's back, and pats it.

Twivine sighs and nods but they suddenly hear their mother calling them for dinner.

"Coming Mom!" Twivine and Twilight shout at the same time.

A couple of hours later Twilight is sleeping peacefully on her bed, while Twivine is sitting on a chair at her desk writing a poem.

In the shadows lurk powerful magic, sinister and vile,
A force so evil, it thrives on darkness with a smile.
Its presence haunts the land, casting shadows far and wide,
A wicked spell that seizes hearts and tempts them to abide.

From ancient times, it drew its strength, from secrets dark and deep,
A concoction of malevolence, enough to make fate weep.
It weaves a web of chaos, with spells so dark and strong,
A formidable power that thrives on what is wrong.

With whispered incantations, it calls upon the abyss,
Summoning the creatures that make even heroes hiss.
It bends the laws of nature, defying all that's right,
A diabolical mastery, veiled in eternal night.

Beware the power of this magic, for it corrupts all souls,
A poison that engulfs hearts, taking tolls upon its tolls.
It preys upon the weak, tempting them with wicked dreams,
Luring them into their grasp with tantalizing schemes.

But, dear warrior, fear not, for against this darkness we stand,
United against the malevolence, hand in hand.
With courage in our hearts and light to guide the way,
We shall vanquish this evil, breaking its unholy sway.

Though the powerfully evil magic may try to lead astray,
We shall uphold the balance, no matter what price we pay.
For the strength of goodness always surpasses the dark,
And in the face of evil, we ignite a vital spark.

So let the battle rage on, between the forces of light and night,
A clash of power and virtue, each seeking to set things right.
In the end, it is love and courage that shall triumph over all,
And the powerfully evil magic shall crumble and fall.

And then she turns to the next page and writes:

In the realm of darkness and strife,
A tale of sisters, bound by life.
Twins they were, yin and yang,
One radiant, the other with fangs.

Unwanted shadows, plagued her mind,
An envy-consuming, unrefined.
Her heart, a vessel, black as night,
To extinguish her sister's light.

With wicked thoughts, she set her plan,
To destroy her twin, her only clan.
Unleashing chaos and whispered lies,
She sought to rupture familial ties.

But the sister, pure and full of grace,
Carried love, like a warm embrace.
Her heart, a beacon, unfading bright,
Resisting darkness with all her might.

As the war waged on, both strong and frail,
Their bond tested, like an ancient tale.
Yet love endured, despite the pain,
A silver thread, hard to restrain.

In the end, the darkness was defeated,
The twin sister's bond could not be cheated.
For love, like rivers, always finds its way,
Mending the pieces, come what may.

The destructive path, she did forsake,
Remorse and regret would keep her awake.
For true unity, true strength does shine,
The sisterly bond is forever intertwined.

Twivine then closes her diary, and she puts it in a drawer and turns off the lamp, she gets up and sighs. "Hopefully I will become Princess Celestia's student just like my sister said," she mumbles to herself.

She then gets on her bed, turns off the light, and slowly drifts off to sleep.

Chapter Two: Not Fair!

The next day, Twivine and Twilight walked into the school where they were for 'gifted' unicorns. Celestia smiled at each filly or colt that walked by until she spotted Twivine and Twilight. "Oh, there you are girls." She smiled at them. "Ready for your big test today?"

Twilight nodded, but Twivine shook her head. "But what happens when you have weird magic?" She asks, but Celestia laughs. "Oh, Twivine your magic can't be that weird."

Twivine sighs. "Okay, whatever you say."

Twilight looked around the place with amazement. "Whoa, this place looks beautiful!"

Later on, most fillies and colts play tag or draw silly pictures, well except for Twilight and Twivine. Twilight is doing her science experiments, while Twivine is writing her diary.

I hope today is perfect, with the skies so blue,
No worries or stress in trying and deploying.
May every moment be filled with joy,
No worries or stress in trying and deploying.

Let laughter be abundant in the air,
And all your troubles vanish if you dare.
May friendships bloom and never fade away,
In harmony and love, let's all sway.

I pray for gentle blessings on your path,
Like a soothing wind, relieving any wrath.
May dreams take flight and reach the highest peak,
With strength and passion, there's nothing you can't seek.

In nature's beauty, find solace and peace,
Let worries and fears forever cease.
May every step you take be firm and sure,
Leading you to a future bright and pure.

So, I hope today is perfect, my dear friend,
May love and happiness descend on you.
In this precious gift, we call life, take part,
And may perfection forever be in your heart

After she was done writing her diary, a colt snatched it away from her. "Hey! That was mine! Give it back!" She shouts.

The colt laughed. "And what are you gonna do about it? I heard your magic was weird, is it a witch spell?" The colt kept laughing and mocking her, making Twivine mad.

"I'll show you what's funny." Twivine then uses her magic and the vine wraps around the colt making him drop her diary, she picked it up and dropped the colt.

"You're a monster!" The colt ran away crying.

Twivine scoffed. "As if."

"Alright, my little ponies I will be picking each filly or colt to come on up and try to use a magic spell, to prove that you are my true student," Celestia explains.

Twivine gulped.

A couple of minutes later after most fillies and colts tried to open the egg, but each one of them failed, Celestia looked disappointed. She then noticed Twivine and nodded.

Twivine slowly stepped up slowly, and she gulped again.

After a few attempts, she kept creating a vine. "I'm so sorry, princess." Twivine sounds upset.

Celestia raises her chin. "It's fine my little pony. At least you tried."

Celestia then nods at Twilight.

After a few attempts, but this time she cracked the egg with her magic, and the baby dragon came out of the egg. It made Twivine Jealous. "Are you serious?!"

"Twivine, you tried though," Twilight explains.

"NO! You have no idea how hard I tried! You see, I was always a failure! But this?! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!" Twivine snaps.

"Twivine please calm down!" Twilight tried to calm her down but she pushed her away.

"I HAD ENOUGH OF YOUR DUMB EXCUSES! YOU WERE ALWAYS THE PERFECT ONE AND ME?! I WAS A MONSTER TO THIS EARTH! A MISTAKE!" Twivine pushed her out of her way again and ran off.

"TWIVINE WAIT!" Twilight called out but got no answer.

Twilight then decides to walk home alone.

After Twilight got home she noticed Twivine's room was destroyed. "Twivine? Where are you?" She keeps calling out but still no answer. Until she stepped on a crumbled paper.

"Huh, what's this?" Twilight picked it up and began reading it.

"In the realm of sibling bonds gone sour,"
"I'll recount a tale of the infamous Twin Tower."
"A sister so wicked, a nightmare come true,"
"The worst twin sister, beyond what we knew."

"With fiery eyes and a venomous tongue,"
"She weaved her web, where darkness clung."
"Her heart, black as night, devoid of care,"
"Leaving chaos and misery everywhere."

"Oh, the antics she'd orchestrate with glee,"
"To torment her twin, causing agony;"
"She snatched her toys and hid them away,"
"Leaving her sibling in dismay."

"She'd steal her dresses, leaving nothing to wear,"
"Dye her hair pink while she slept unaware."
"Sneak into her diary, read every line,"
"Exposing secrets, destroying all that's fine."

"In school, she'd perpetrate the cruelest schemes,"
"Replacing good grades with failing themes."
"Jealousy fueled her wicked campaign,"
"Tainting their bond, causing endless pain."

"Yet, her twin sister, steadfast and true,"
"Held her head high, and knew what to do."
"With resilience and strength, she'd rise above,"
"Seeking solace in her heart's treasure trove."

"For every cruel act, she'd find forgiveness,"
"Believing in redemption, despite the mess."
"She'd offer an olive branch, extend her hand,"
"I was hoping her twin sister would understand."

"But sadly, the depths of darkness were too deep,"
"Her twin's heart, hard and frozen, couldn't seep."
"Years went by, their bond decaying,"
"As the worst twin sister kept on betraying."

"One fateful day, a turning point arrived,"
"Their paths diverged, and they finally survived."
"The worst twin sister's deeds caught up to her,"
"Leaving regrets and her conscience a blur."

"Her twin sister's strength had triumphed at last,"
"Casting the shadows of the bitter past."
"For in every darkness, a glimmer of light,"
"Revealing the truth and setting things right."

"So let this tale be a lesson to say,"
"That even the worst twin sister may,"
"Find redemption and change her wicked way,"
"And restore the bond that faded to gray."

Twilight dropped the crumbled paper and fell on her knees and cried. "I'm the worst twin sister ever." She kept crying and curled into a ball, she knew that her twin sister would never come back.

Chapter Three: 20 Years Later

Author's Note

Sorry if this Chapter is short, I promise it'll be longer for the next few chapters :applecry:

Chapter Three: 20 Years Later

It's been 20 years since Twivine left Ponyville, Twilight is now an alicorn and still remembers her twin sister Twivine and is happy around her five friends and of course the baby dragon, Spike.

Twilight is flying with Rainbow Dash.

"So what's it like being a princess?" She asks.

"It feels great." Twilight replies. "Even though it's hard being a princess."

Twilight then hears Rarity screaming and she flies down quickly.

"What's wrong Rarity?" Twilight asks.

"Twilight, I'm just excited about tomorrow!" Rarity shouts with joy. "Tomorrow is going to be the Sun Summer Celebration! And everypony will see your big star when Luna and Celestia show their sun and moon!"

"That's great Rarity, but I'm a little nervous," Twilight says.

"Nonsense! No need to be a little nervous, Twilight." Rarity then cheers up Twilight. "I bet everypony will like your big star."

"Thanks, Rarity." Twilight says with a smile.

Meanwhile, Twivine walks back in forth waiting for her guard. Until the guard walked in. "So any signs of that brat?" Twivine asks.

"Of course your highness." The guard says and bows. "I believe that Twilight is an alicorn."

"WHAT?!" Twivine looks shocked and angry and she uses her magic to wrap the guard with her vine. "And you never told me before?!"

"I'm sorry princess! Please don't attack me!" The guard begged, but Twivine lets go of the guard.

"Leave before I change my mind and kill you." Twivine sounds serious.

The guard flees out of the room.

Twivine scoffs. "Stupid guards." She sits on her throne.

"In fact, I still have my diary but I'll just make it as my revenge list." She laughs evilly. "My stupid twin sister will pay for what she did to me! After all, she is a 'perfect' princess."

"Maybe I should make a one last poem." Twivine then nods and writes:

In the realm of darkness, where shadows creep,
A tale of vengeance shall I now speak.
Where dormant rage bubbles were deep, oh so steep,
A heart that for retribution does seek.

With eyes so stern, and bloodlust that swells,
The spirit of vengeance, like tolling bells,
Awakens in silence, a fierce fury it tells,
For the injustice inflicted, its tale compels.

Through treacherous mazes, the path it paves,
Through rivers of sorrow, to reclaim what was saved.
No mercy, no solace for those who misbehaved,
Revenge, the victor, their sentence engraved.

In whispers of midnight, a vow it does take,
To give nightmares, to those who caused heartache.
Through shadows, it glides, like a venomous snake,
Seeking redemption, to make their world quake.

Every action, precise, every move, calculated,
Not a single word was spoken, just silence, sedated.
For the sweet taste of revenge, highly coveted,
In the darkness, retribution is coldly narrated.

But beware, revenge, a double-edged sword,
For those in pursuit of justice, sanity may be ignored.
The line between justice and vengeance blurred,
A cautionary tale to those who are lured.

So let revenge be a passage, not a final decree,
For forgiveness and love, the light that sets free.
May harmony guide us, our spirits vengeful-less,
And steer us away from revenge's distress.

Twivine then closes the 'diary' and she throws it at the fire. "My stupid twin sister will fail and Equestria shall fall."
