Heavily alternate universe

An AU where Cadence and Sombra are biological siblings. Born in the age of the Crystal Empire at it's peak, Sombra was the first born and Cadence the second born. Cadence doesn't remember much if any of it, being nothing more than an young child.

Sombra however was jealous of her, she was born with their mothers inherent talent in emotion and mind magic. Meaning that she would one day be able to sync up with the Crystal Heart near perfectly just like their mother, meaning that the throne is going to this tiny pink child and not him. He felt cheated. He had worked years to master the few emotions and mind magics he has. Why should the throne go to this tiny little child and not him when he's been working so hard. Why do his parents get to choose who gets the throne. He can't bring himself to hate his little sister, she didn't choose this she was just born into it. And he can't bring himself to hate her when he's the one taking care of her so often, with how busy their parents are in politics.

He eventually rebels against his parents, turning them both to Crystal and shattering them. While he also turns Cadence into Crystal, it is not to shatter her statue. the small amount of bonding they have done had gone to his heart, he would be unable to kill his sister even if he had planned to. Turning Cadence to Crystal was that hopeful part of his mostly darkened heart that someone would be left behind to be able to stop whatever he had become. And when he and the Crystal Empire are banished below the ice of the frozen north, Cadences statue is left behind in the snow. Eventually being found by explorers one fateful day, leading to a family of earth ponies many years down the line being confused about their family heirloom now being a living breathing Pegasus child. Who eventually goes on to ascend into the alicorn of love, and sent back to the very place she was born.

Optional additions-

Their mother is The lost Crystal Princess Amore. Their other parents could be an Umbra from the comics, that seems fun!

I can see Cadence wanting to try and reform him once she finds out she's related to him.

Sombra probably had a freak out internally when seeing Cadence holding the Crystal Heart. Looks so much like their mother, it has to be his sister right? Who else could it be. She's an alicorn now? He's strangely feels proud of her when he gets nearly destroyed by the Crystal Heart

Sombra might have been extremely jealous of Cadence but he didn't really hold his grudges against her specifically. He held them against his parents. In fact his parents were so busy with politics half the time that it was him raising Cadence with the help of staff.

I can see Cadence having strange dreams about the crystal empire and sombra. Her dreams about sombra are usually not nightmares. Except one. Why is this dark unicorn she calls her brother turning her into Crystal, and.... is he crying?

SOMBRA!! one of my favorite villains in the show, right behind chrysalis,, so here are some headcanons:

- cis and uses he/him, although he doesn't mind they/them and it/its either

- bisexual

- was born an earth pony, and found a way to become a unicorn, at the cost of the new crystal growing on his head having corrupt magic

- during his rise to power, he created a crystal disease that affects unicorns, causing the crystals in their horns to grow out of control and completely encasing the pony in crystal (you will hear more about this 👁️)

- there used to be more than one crystal heart, and he destroyed all but one during his rise to power to ensure none of them would be used against him. most of what used to be the crystal empire now lies within the frozen wastes, in ruins

mlp infected au but it takes more after the last of us where we're really far in the future and the protagonist is a grown up flurry heart

#if you let me get really into it #she has to take care of and eventually gets a bond with a young sunny starscout #maybe she's searching for living ponies to try and reestablish the crystal empire and keep them safe #my art #mlp #mlp infected au #mlp infection au #infection au #my little pony #mlp g4 #mlp fim #mlp fanart #flurry heart #mlp flurry heart

This was supposed to be an old comic draft on how Shining came back to the empire with Sombra possessing him instead of restricting his magic, but Ill save the story for next time 👀

You know what I'm surprised I've never seen? Crystal pony ocs that were brought back with the crystal empire. Like come on there's so much to explore there from missing memories to adapting to modern times.

Don't make me singlehandedly fix this myself.

One of those infection/Zombie aus but the cause is one of the shows ancient magical artifacts. Like the inspiration manifestation book or alicorn amulet. Or even more interesting in my opinion, artifacts thought as forces of good, like the tree/elements of harmony and crystal heart. Maybe they were never meant to be used by mortals. Maybe Sombra is the way he is because he was flying to close to the sun when studying the Crystal Hearts magic.

I have a previous prompt where Discord was turned into what he is now because of the inspiration manifestation book. I like to think it was Starswirl or Stygian that became Discord after discovering the book.
