my little pony - a amizade é mágica The Sunset Shimmer Paradox RP

NocturnalMirage posted on Jan 18, 2014 at 11:29AM
Sunset Shimmer returns to Equestria and steals the time travel spell, from the Canterlot Archives. She uses it to go back in time to ruin Twilight Sparkle's life and make sure she will never gets accepted to the School for Gifted Unicorns, thus won't be recognized by Celestia.

Of course, in doing so, she drastically alters the future and Twilight wakes up in a world where Sunset Shimmer is an alicorn Queen and the Element of Magic and rules the land of Neo-Equestria with an iron hoof.

Twilight is the only one who remembers what her world used to be like, but since she's a regular unicorn with almost no magic at all, she seeks help from other ponies. She has to re-evaluate everything she's learned, because in this universe the most feared and powerful villains of her own world are noble freedom fighters.

Since Sunset Shimmer wisely destroyed every single scroll of the time travel spell, she's the only one who knows it, therefore Twilight has to find another way back in time to restore the world to its original state, before the final war of ponykind erupts and destroys everything.

It is time for role reversal! :)

- No cussing

- This is a canon RP, so you can only join with an official MLP character (below you can find the list of characters that are already taken)

Our story begins with the scene where we see Twilight, sleeping in the Ponyville Library. When she wakes up she sees the headline of a newspaper in front of her, that says:

THE QUEEN'S OFFICE TIGHTENS CURFEW

According to the Queen's office, this is a response to the threat of the Terran Republic and the Pegasus Commonwealth. New, more strict security measures are expected to be implemented in the near future all around Neo-Equestria.


Twilight: *shakes head, unable to comprehend the words* What?

She trots out only to face a very different Ponyville. Instead of dirt roads, its concrete and asphalt everywhere, there are giant holographic images on the buildings, all showing Sunset Shimmer and there are a lot of Peacekeepers marching on the streets, similarly to Royal Guards. Ponies walk ahead in lines, with an emotionless expressions, their lifeless eyes staring into nothingness. Everything's clean and shiny, but cold and rigid at the same time...

Twilight: What happened here?

Daring Do:Who is...Oh,it's that pony,Twilight Sparkle.
Nightmare Moon:Um,yeah!What are you staring at?

(Well, the time line has already been altered and Twilight's in the same age as in her original world, but she's a regular unicorn with almost no magic at all. She's not an Element of Harmony here and she doesn't know what's going on, since we start from the point right after Sunset Shimmer altered the past and we only see the consequences of her actions right now.)

Nightmare Moon:Have you forgot to speak or what?
Daring Do:It looks so!

Twilight: Oh, sorry... I just... whoa! NIGHTMARE MOON!!!

Daring Do:What in the hay is wrong with you?
Nightmare Moon:Yeah!
over a year ago NocturnalMirage said…
Twilight: Nightmare Moon! It's impossible! We defeated you! What are you doing here?!
over a year ago KendiKens said…
(I have a question,who decides who is in the mane six?)
over a year ago KendiKens said…
Daring Do&Nightmare Moon:*see each other,laugh*What?
over a year ago NocturnalMirage said…
(Well, the Mane 6 have the same personalities, but they never became the Elements of Harmony, it's Sunset Shimmer who possess all the power of the elements. The Mane 6 are regular ponies here, who don't or barely even know each other, but they are still Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Twilight Sparkle)
over a year ago KendiKens said…
(I'd liked to be in the mane six,but I can't,but no prob XD)
Nightmare Moon:What did you do?Let's call my friend,Crystalis to find it out!O Crystalis!

Twilight's causing a scene and it gets the attention of some Peacekeepers, who glare at us.

The Peacekeepers walk over to us with stern faces.

Peacekeeper 1: Citizens! You are causing a disturbance! Show me your identifications!
over a year ago alinah_09 said…
Raindrops: uh-oh...

Peacekeeper 2: What are you waiting for?! Extend right arm for scanning your implanted ID chips! All of you!
Twilight: What? What the hay is that supposed to mean?

Peacekeeper 1: *holds a small device with a holographic display a few inches above their right arms* All data seems to be correct.
Peacekeeper 2: What about her? *points at Twilight*
Twilight: what is this madness?!
Peacekeeper 1: Cooperate, citizen! Defying the Queen's authority means an automatic 30 day solitary confinement! *holds Twilight down, while his partner scans her and the device starts to beep*
Peacekeeper 2: I don't believe it! This one has no implanted chip!!!
Peacekeeper 1: That's the violation of law 3452/7! Arrest all of them!

The Peacekeepers look confused.

Peacekeeper 1: I'm terribly sorry your Highness!
Peacekeeper 2: Let's get out of here, before she reports this to the Queen!
Twilight: Pheew... That was a close one! But why did you help me? What was this all about? I'm so confused... what happened to Ponyville?
over a year ago KendiKens said…
Rarity:Well,Ponyville has always been like this!
Daring Do:Well,we did this...Because....
Rarity:Because we felt bad to let them catch you!

Twilight: No, you don't understand! This is not what it used to be! There has to be an explanation... THE LIBRARY! Perhaps I'll find some answers there!
over a year ago KendiKens said…
Rarity:There is no library anymore.
