Time Traveling Kids of the Mane Six! Chapter 54

MLP Chapter 54: Love's Farewell (Story Edited: See description below if you've read this chapter already) Mother and daughter faced each other amid the ruins of Applejack’s barn. Blackened clouds hid the stars from the sky, flashing and rumbling in the darkness. A wind picked up around them, fanning the flames that surrounded them into a searing tornado of destruction. Andromeda’s eyes still glowed green from the dark magic enveloping her, but Twilight saw something glistening against her face. As ‘Dark Andromeda’ stumbled towards her, shuffling through the wreckage of burning wood and splinters, Twilight could see

Chapter 53: A Living Nightmare ‘Twilight Sparkle’s diary 1:30 AM Day 5 since we lost Orion. ‘Work on fixing the broken time travel spell continues. Never in my life have I been tasked to deal with something as dangerously complex as what Andromeda and I are trying to accomplish. Since the original spell used the life energy of the user, it was incredibly deadly without any built-in precautions. We still don’t know when these safety precautions (which only allows the user to travel once in their life) were implemented, but whoever did so clearly did not know how to combine safety with production.’ Twilight Spar

Chapter 52: Approaching Shadow Rarity stopped in her tracks to see the front door of Applejack’s home open. Tempest entered slowly, his wing draped delicately around Andromeda. The purple mare stared only at the ground, her body moving almost involuntarily. The shock of the loss of her brother had overwhelmed her. “Take her to the kitchen. Give her a bite to eat,” Rarity said with a hushed tone. “and don’t let her see the kids.” Before Tempest could take another step, Berry and Cherry had rushed to their side in perfect unison. “I’ve got Andi,” Berry said, shifting her weight onto his

Time Traveling Kids of the Mane Six Ch. 51 Prelude

Chapter 51 Prelude: (spoilers for first-time readers) Everything happened so fast. There wasn’t anything that could have been done. Life itself seemed to come to a screeching halt for Andromeda, held up in perpetual slow-motion while her friends and mother carried the weakened bodies of Orion, Peach, and Bucky. Quiet. Such dizzying quiet! Andromeda couldn’t tell if she was breathing or not. It didn’t matter. All she knew was that everything in her ached. “Get the doctor! Now!” she heard her mother scream to Rainbow Dash, who had only just arrived. “But what if he finds out-“ “I said NO

Chapter 50: Paradise… L0ST (part II) Andromeda stumbled down the stairs, blinded by the tears that blurred her vision. Her heart quivered silently yet so painfully. She could feel it rising towards her throat. There was no breathing, but there was sobbing; a sobbing so heavy that her lungs burned. She wanted to drop to the ground and lie there for all of eternity, but something in her wouldn’t let her. The air itself felt like poison. She had to get out. She had to breathe. Andromeda dashed through the house and threw open the front door. She had no idea what she was doing or where she was going, nor could she think. All she cou

Chapter 49: Paradise… Lost (PART I) Deep within Twilight Sparkle’s basement, and late into the night, two mares toiled long and hard on the complexly flawed time travel spell. Minutes felt like hours, and hours like days while they clawed at the missing puzzle pieces of the magical formulas. Time was not on their side, as months of theory and testing needed to be condensed into a fraction of the time needed. Only the inevitable threat of the spell collapsing and killing the time travelers kept their exhausted minds running. Andromeda and Twilight had been feeling the pressure for weeks now, but now, after so much labor, the lig

Chapter 48: Together At Last Berry could feel his entire body scream in agony. Every muscle felt bruised and sore beyond words. Even his bones seemed to ache. His head felt heavy and swollen from his earlier encounters. He touched his neck to see if it was as bad as it felt. A surge of pain shot through him. Mentally, everything felt foggy. He had no recollection of what time or day it was to begin with. “Good morning, sleepyhead,” a sweetly familiar voice sang. “Ch-cherry?” Berry whispered, trying to crane his neck to find out who was speaking to him. Cherry’s bright face appeared above him, looking down wit

MLP chapter 47: Awoken (first draft) Orion and Peach Cobbler glanced at each other with a look of confusion as Applejack hugged her son for what felt like an eternity. Neither of them could rightly remember what was going on, so seeing Applejack shedding tears over Bucky felt both unusual and amusing. Even Bucky began to feel awkward from the sudden burst of tenderness from his mother. “Moooommm, cut it out, ” he whispered, his yellow cheeks blushing red. “Yer embarrassin’ me.” “Ah’m sorry,” Applejack replied, releasing him gently but still keeping one hoof on his shoulder. “Ah was ju

Chapter 46: Food for Thought (first draft) Cherry, Tempest, and Rainbow Dash stared at one another, motionless. After RD’s little verbal slip up in front of them both, conversation had ground to a halt. One could hear a pin drop in the room, but the silence didn’t last for long once Cherry started to laugh. “So,” Cherry said, trying desperately to cover her mouth to prevent a comical meltdown, “are we going to agree that this is both hilarious and really uncomfortable at the same time? Well, I mean hilarious for me and SUPER awkward for you two!” And with that, it was all over. Cherry broke down into

Chapter 45: Make Yourself Uncomfortable (First draft) Andromeda stood alone in a giant room of pure white. The vast nothingness surrounded her at all sides. There were no ponies, no objects, and no landmarks of any kind. Not even a shadow accompanied her. She was completely and utterly isolated. There was only the void. She began to walk forward with the hope of finding some kind of exit. As she did, the environment shifted. Each hoofstep she took echoed around her, creating shadowy ripples that faded into the distance. “Andi,” the dark sound waves began to whisper. Andromeda stopped. Her heart began to pound in her chest whil

Time Traveling Kids of the Mane Six! Ch. 1

CHAPTER 1: Andromeda's discovery Scattered pages and dusty old books filled the study in a cluttered mess as Andromeda Sparkle slept among the debris of her own handiwork. Unconscious after a long night of work, her mind only left dreamland when the amber beams of the rising sun shone on her face. With a groan, she slowly rose to her feet, heavy eyelids still drooping. Various loose documents clung to her face as she stood, unnoticed by her until their delicate forms slipped from her lavender cheeks and fluttered towards the blanket of weathered volumes that lay on the floor around her. Once the blur of sleep had finally faded, she turned t
