After Planet Aether has been brought to peace and stabilized, Samus Aran doesn't get much rest when she's sent to reconnoiter a nameless planet on the edge of Galactic Federation space. Ostensibly, she was supposed to determine the size of a Space Pirate operation that was mining Phazon on this planet... and mark the place for a quick strike by Federation forces if it came down to it.

But when things become much more complicated beyond what her mission brief had stated, she may find that her fate and those of some unlikely allies may be intertwined. The battle that rages on the ground in a fight for survival and duty may have Samus questioning herself when a new front in an undeclared, nameless war is opened... in her mind.

She had been alone for many years without a place to call her own. Luckily she found a place to call home, and even though it wasn't perfect she would do everything she could to make it so. Though she had been warned to avoid these lands by one close to her this was a chance that was too good to pass up. Through the use of her wits and life experiences, and maybe a bit of luck, she fights with everything she has to find her place, even though she knows not where that should be.
------------
First attempt at a story, so expect the tags to change as I figure them out. First of three planned parts, this one being closer to a Slice of Life with a bit of Adventure thrown in occasionally. Also AR as I will reorder the episodes to be more time friendly, lengthening the time as 1 year for 3 season is not enough time, as well as throwing out certain episodes due to reasons. Mostly ones that don't really fit the characters like they should or are just blatant toy grabs. So the AJ going crazy overprotective of AB probably won't happen. Story will also focus around the main character with interactions with others, but trying to not overly interfere with the main plot, except where it could be funny.

Warning: Tags will change when appropriate, Teen so I don't have to hold back too much on language, themes, and jokes, Sex tag may or may not come into play, though there just to be safe though most that will be there is innuendo.

Long ago, a terrible monster known as Ninetails unleashed a reign of destruction upon a distant land before being defeated by holy priests. While helping the land recover and purifying monsters, a fox they had in their care spawned a second tail. Despite knowing the risks, the priests believed she could be a force for good and began to train her in the ways of healing and purification. 

However, not long after gaining her third tail, word of her existence began to spread, causing her caretakers to fear for her life. They decided to send her to a distant land, a land of peace, harmony, and friendship. There, Princess Celestia found her and, interested in her ability to purify monsters, took the three-tailed fox in with the hopes she could save her fallen sister.

"Will she find acceptance and happiness among ponies? Will she save Luna? One thing is certain, her race's heritage and instincts won’t make it easy."

This story starts 50 years before Nightmare Moon Return. Humans make appearance only in prologue and they do not play any significant role later in the story. This is not pokemon in Equestria, main character is a Kitsune. Warning, bleeding, religious themes and fluff is to be expected.

With Princess Cadence and Shinning Armor's love proving too strong for Queen Chrysalis, she and her changelings are cast far into the distance and out of Equestria. Zeil a changeling who assisted in the attack, fell short and found himself injured and lost in the Everfree Forest. in hopes of receiving first aid, he takes the form of a zebra and ask Zecora for help. However, as time goes by, he starts developing feelings for his savior and starts to wonder, "is it possible for a changeling to fall in love?" and if so "Would she return his love if she only knew the truth?"

The lands of Equestria aren't as safe as they once were.

What was once a gently trek across fields of beauty and wonder have changed to battles with spirits and death. Most ponies can't go a few miles without having to battle for their souls against ghosts and spirits, all who wish to drag them to the dead.

And to top it all off there's a creature that haunts a mountain at the edge of Equestria, a creature that no pony has ever fully seen. Fast as a blur and cold as the grave, none know who or what it is.

All we do know is that whenever it appears, it brings disaster with it.

This story is a bit of an experiment for me, so if things seems weird or don't add up all the time, that is why.

Ganondorf, King of Thieves, Lord of Darkness, Master of Evil and Wielder of the Triforce of Power, had long since grown thoroughly and completely bored with the path the gods had decreed for his destiny.

Time after time it was always the same, try and unite the Triforce, plunge the world into darkness for a time, search out and then kidnap Princess Zelda, watch his minions be defeated one after another and then finally battle Link for supremacy. Rinse and repeat.

All the while knowing that regardless of winning or losing, that no matter what he did or didn’t do, that in the end everything would end up repeating itself in another time and place afterwards, again, and again and again, in an utterly pointless never ending cycle.

Having decided that enough was finally enough, and refusing to continue to be a simple pawn at the hands of the gods, he vowed he would find a way to escape from his cumbersome destiny, a way to start anew far beyond the meddling grasp of the gods, a way to reach a realm upon which he could be the master of his own fate.

And after years of careful planning he had finally succeeded.

Sure, the fact he had to drag the know-it-all Princess and the green obsessed Hero along for the ride for his plan to work was a minor inconvenience, but he knew that sometimes sacrifices had to be made. And the fact that this new realm apparently decided to turn him and his two unwilling companions into miniature pastel colored ponies upon arrival also wasn’t exactly part of the plan, but he could cope.

After all, that was a negligible price to pay in achieving his deepest wish: freedom.

In this story Ganondorf, having grown sick of following through the motions his destiny placed before him as the eternal bad guy to be defeated time after time, seeks out to escape from his fate by breaking through the void between dimensions and running away from Hyrule to another realm entirely, Equestria, all the while dragging both Link and Zelda along for the ride.

Arriving long before the founding of the country, back before the events of Heart’s Warming Eve and at the highest point of the conflict between the Three Tribes, he and his two new companions will have to deal with a whole new world and it’s wonders and dangers. All the while this new magical world will have to learn to deal with its three new strange inhabitants in kind.

Just a warning: This is NOT a Displaced fic. All three main characters are the actual characters from the Zelda series that have been taken to Equestria due to Ganondorf’s master plan, and not humans turned into them.

This story is a sequel to Little Lost Raichu

It has been over two weeks since she woke up in the Everfree Forest, devoid of memories of her past and unaware of her own powers and abilities. Twilight and her friends accepted her, nursed back to health, fed her and provided with a place to live. Despite all the accidents and troubles she caused, she was met with kindness, forgiveness and friendship.

With part of her memories restored and aware of her survival and combat abilities, Raichu is determined to repay their kindness. How? By becoming a mercenary (help for hire) and earning her keep.

No matter how dangerous or silly the job, no matter if her life would be in danger, she was going to be useful. Will ponies underestimate her due to her innocent and weak appearance? Or will she prove them wrong and make her caretakers proud?

This story is a sequel to Twilight Daylight: Psera, The Legend of Legends

The International House of Trade—made up of Equestria, Prance, North Neighton, South Neighton, Seaquestria, Mount Aris, Hoof Yun and five other nations—has never witnessed a bloody war. A real battle where ponies actually never wake after being hit with something sharp and deadly. They have never seen death at his worst. They have never seen a loved one murdered in cold blood lying at their hooves.

Queen Twilight 'Arcadia Nova' Sparkle has plenty of times ever since starting her life on Psera fifteen years ago. After being awakened from her own self-inflicted imprisonment spell that has kept her frozen in time for ten years, Queen Arcadia was welcomed back to the throne by witnessing the deaths of over one hundred innocent Pserateps, including her own daughter and husband.

An attack led by the Zebras.

With an extremely massive military behind her, gargantuan weaponry, a country willing to fight, and the support of her citizens, Queen Twilight 'Arcadia Nova' Sparkle, Saviour of Psera is ready to return the favor.

However, her past life remains an obstacle, and are refusing to let her pass.

Can the Crystal Empire survive an attack from Chrysalis' most powerful weapon?

Thanks to Speccer for some proofreading and 2ManySnacks for the idea.

Twilight Sparkle accomplished something incredible, something not even the great Starswirl could manage. But ascension into the ranks of Equestria's princesses is not without its difficulties. Before she can take her place as princess of Friendship, Twilight must travel to the underworld and make a ceremonial offering to Death in exchange for her immortality. Twilight is more than a little surprised to discover the identity of the pony under the hood.

After years living in Ponyville and getting to know her friends, Twilight always assumed they were exactly what they seemed: a group of friendly and ambitious ponies. But as it turns out, the sort of pony who saves Equestria and decodes the ancient mysteries of Starswirl is likely to attract ponies a tad more interesting.
