Flowing to insanity

Twilight Sparkle, Equestria's newest princess. Even after seven years it seems strange. During this sad time, Pinkie had died from obesity, Applejack is still farming regularly, Rarity is in Canterlot with Twilight even though she doesn't have time for her, Fluttershy does the same as ever, and Rainbow Dash died in an accident in which her head got chopped off. Twilight is therefore heavily depressed about the fact that she doesn't actually have friends anymore.

Twilight was known as the Princess of friendship, until everypony found out she has no friends anymore. After that she was just a leader in a distant castle of Canterlot. Leader of depression that is. She had no role in the system of Equestria. No matter how much Celestia told her that she matters to her, or how much she visited Cadence in the Crystal Empire, she still would be depressed and told herself she doesn't have a place in this land. Then came the talk about suicide, she even attempted suicide! But as a princess it is very hard to die, you can't die in natural causes and it's very hard to take so much damage to get killed.

Twilight eventually started making herself more comfortable with joking, she wanted to remember Pinkie this way. Ofcourse, Celestia was ok with it until Twilight started joking about killing ponies. Celestia told Twilight to get more mature humor, but that made her joke about killing the other princesses. Celestia started thinking wether it's because her mental health might not be perfect, but would she really be thinking like this? She decided to ask Luna but she though that Twilight probably wasn't fit to be a princess, not in a mean way but if she's this corrupted from losses then she mustn't be in such a responsibility.

When Cadence heard the news, she got too worried. If the worries weren't enough, she got even more worried by the fact that Twilight would be visiting her right on that day. What would Cadence tell her, or rather how would Twilight react if she heard that a rumour like this has been going around? Cadence didn't have enough time to think, because Twilight had already appeared on the front door of Cadence's castle. Instead of doing the "sunshine song" Twilight just stood there. Cadence then asked Twilight if she really has been joking like this.

What Cadence had just said, made Twilight start destroying alot of furniture. The next frase from twilight shocked Cadence above the understanding of a human mind. -"Let's hope my BBBFF likes the new Cadenza brand wallpapers." Cadence tried to dodge, but Twilight managed to hit her with a huge part of the castle, paralyzing her. Cadence had veins popped and blood was flowing through multiple parts in her body. Cadence plead Twilight for why she is doing this, but Twilight just crushed her old caretakers head with a piece of crystal.

Twilight had a glimpse of sanity in her brain for a second. Did she really just kill her best friend left? Insanity flowed back right at the time when she remembered that she's in the crystal empire, so there was much more to kill. Upon noticing that her big brother had been watching, she vanished to never been seen again. Shining armor forwarded the news to rest of the citizens in the empire and Celestia. Where was Twilight? Why did she kill the crystal princess? What was going on, did Twilight deserve to be treated that way as a princess? From this day on, Equestria wasn't full of love anymore, fear took over the land, and where-ever Twilight is, nopony is safe.

Twilight's mind was now only a creation of the devil himself, with no actual compassion for anything that lived. Now that she was known as a threat, horror stories were made, rumours passed around, and could anyone actually feel less safe?

A white dove

Twilight has another sane flashback. -"Rainbow don't!" Twilight just looks at the evil queen as if she is a small fly pooping on a window.

The time that one came to face at one point in anypony's life, is when a pony must experience their closest ones death. For Shining Armor the worst had happened, if a pony thinks that his little sister killed his wife. Something atleast as sad might happen to everypony, not as soon as one might think, though. But Canterlot is preparing for the biggest, ponyville is building shelters, so is Manehattan, or pretty much any other city in this magical realm. It's this moment, that the prince sees the small white dove, flying above the castle, so graceful, beautiful. Representing peace. Everything, will eventually be fine. All will be fine from now on.

Celestia on the other hand, is leading everyone into shelter, preparing armies even though will be proven useless. But ofcourse everything will need to be done to prevent any disaster. But anyhow, if they succeed bringing Twilight down, what will they do afterwards? Start life again? Or would they continue differently? Would something massive change? If something did, then what? Would there be no princesses left in Equestria? Well, obviously there should. Or would there be? Let's all hope so, because the night of tonight is the night of the big fight, long flight, in the night.

At Canterlot, Celestia is officially signing Shining Armor to be the commander in the east, and assigning Luna to be the main warrior. -"Don't worry little sister, it'll all be fine. If we all listened to you in the first place, i think we would've been fine now." Said Celestia. -"It's okay big sister, it'll all be okay." Luna replies. -"Let's just hope this all goes as planned, Shining armor, you must go to Fillydelphia at once and signal them all of the bunkers." Luna doesn't need to say more, and SA is already on his way.

Next thing the ponies of Canterlot see, is a complete darkness. Everyone was moved. Armies and armour plates were covering the streets. With approximately one minute till the war would begin. The clouds covered the city, there was nothing that the weather pegasi could do. What's in there? Something is forming out of the clouds. That sure is huge. Not being sure what it was, Luna got her telescope and looked at the surface. It was a structure of dead ponies. Bodies hanging around, blood dripping over Canterlot. The sight nearly made the royal guards puke.

This huge floating hunk of flesh seemed like some sort of an airship. That it was. Well not exactly, unless somepony counts a big half-rotten pile of meat to be an airship. But who cares about this right now? There is MUCH more to think about. Like how to fight the war. The war should take a long time, unless Twilight is weak. But since Twilight made THIS THING, it doesn't seem like it. Wait a second, is that green light behind it? -"That's impossible, Cadence's love blew them away years ago!" Yells Celestia.

This army was bigger than prepared for. It formed from Twilight, Chrysalis, and all the changelings. It confirmed the thought that this was going to be a big war. Surely a BIG war. Maybe the biggest in the history of Equestria. -"Big sister, are you able to transport your powers into me? I've noticed you haven't been in the best condition." Luna asks. Celestia tells her that this idea was perfect, and after completing the spell, she shrieked.

Luna is shocked. Celestias back was impaled by a long, thick bar of something. -"Young sister, please, kill her." -"I will Celestia, I will..."

Tik tok, the clock is ticking

Naturally Luna is awake at night, and being the mare of the night she can clearly separate what impaled her sister. It was Chrysalis mushed into a spike, her horn in the front. The changelings died at the exact same moment that Luna cried, leaving Twilight alone, but maybe they were only meant for show. Luna had managed to get half of Celestias strength. -"Take the chance you stupid hoe, fight me!" Is heard from the sky, showing multiple illusional Twilights, but all seemed highly real, since every single one could hit Luna, but which was the real Twilight?

Moving to the middle of nowhere Shining is still on his way to Canterlot. He picked up a few of the guards in the crystal empire with him, and one of them suddenly trips on a stone, making the ground tremble. It would seem like they all fell into a cave, but only Shining is still alive. But where are the bodies of the guardians? *tick tock* He hears a faint sound in the deep caves, inviting him deeper. His eyes grow wide when he starts floating in emptiness, the sound of ticking growing stronger. *tick tock, tick TOCK, TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK* He starts floating in a cloud of colours, moving to white emptyness.

The white stallion is baffled from the experience, but his emotions quickly turn to fear and shock when bloody ghosts that seem to be the souls of dead ponies, surround him, screaming at him, until one silently whispers in his ear saying -"Tik tok, time is ticking..." He then looks upwards only to see a variety of abnormal clocks, abnormal meaning very huge and strangely shaped. Wait a minute, that's not a clock. Was this just a huge pony style figure? Oh yes it most certainly was, but it got destroyed, turned into a million souls, now all whispering in his ears, -"Tik tok, time is ticking, you need to be ready to do it don't you? Stay with us here..."

-"Come on Luna, you are strong, look into a mirror! You are clearly repeating yourself! Stop crying and fight" Luna is repeating herself by crying and telling herself to stop, but now she does something. She starts to charge all the energy into her horn, but gets disturbed by a light. The light keeps coming closer, and closer, it already reached her, but why does it still seem like it's coming closer? It's like, it would be burrowing inside of her, but it is! It really is burrowing inside of her! She can feel light inside her! But why doesn't she feel like herself anymore?

Location: unknown

Where was Twilight, was the big question now. If she was in Equestria, Celestia could sense it, but she couldn't. But where was she? Only if everypony knew that she is in the depths of a new dimension she managed to create! This dimension is only chaos, nothing else. Only if Discord knew of this! Everything was floating pieces of unknown material, and Twilight was the controller of it. In fact, even though there wouldn't naturally be anypony in there, but Twilight recreated every chaotic character in the history of Equestria into this dimension along with slave ponies.

The dimension forms of one corrupted area, with corrupted versions of her old friends running five fractions of it. Applejack holds a slave farm, Pinkie is in charge of making "cupcakes", Rarity makes the torture suits, Fluttershy sings and then vicously kills the prey and finally, Rainbow Dash keeps up a colour extraction factory. The ponies are unaware of being in an insulated dimension, making the torture even more horrible.

Meanwhile on the other side of the world, Queen Chrysalis is planning on making another attack against Equestria. As the princesses, she is also able to teleport between dimension and space. So she notices a new disturbance. Twilight's chaos dimension. Without hesitating, she immediatly tells her subjects that she will be gone. When arriving at the new dimension, she is shocked. This is the most evil thing the evil queen had ever seen. And even more shocking was seeing that Twilight was in the middle of all of it.

Chrysalis had seen alot during her life, but anything this surprising was near to give her a heart attack, or whatever she would get. If not the evilness of this whole existence wasn't enough, something like seeing the Princess of Friendship torturing the ponies would be the last drop. Chrysalis goes to Twilight, bowing down to her, since she respects anything so evil. -"Well well well, someone of my interest!" Says Twilight. Chrysalis, on the other hand asks Twilight on what's going on. She only answers that clearly being nice wasn't her thing, that she was determined to rule over her own perfect world.
