Everything that the King of the Crystal Empire has at last come true. All his enemies have been defeated, all nations have been conquered, governments overthrown, revolutions silenced, traitors executed, and all of Equinity is now in slavery.

Just as Emperor Sombra had dreamed of.

Yet, on that night of triumph where he becomes the very king of the world, a voice broke out into mad laughter. Curious, the Emperor has him arrested and brought to question as to why would he dare laugh at him.

Also the picture is a real painting that I did several months ago.

On the way home from a stressful day for dinner on a rainy night, Fancy Pants and Fleur de Lis were riding in a cab when suddenly as they were passing the poorer part of Canterlot, someone threw a painting out of frustration into a garbage can below. Curious, the unicorn got out of the cab and pulled it out of the rain to find an painting done with impressive skill. As time goes by, his curiosity about the artist who paint it lead him to a stallion down on both himself and his luck by the name of Acrylic Brush.

A huge thank you to Isk for helping me proofread this story. And to Milo Chalks for finishing the last remaining chapters.

Somewhere underground, Princess Celestia and Queen Chrysalis have woken up in a cave, in glass boxes with a box with two buttons nearby them, a ticking clock on the wall, and plenty of bombs over their heads. From a phonograph recording, a mysterious voice gives them a choice: Either press a button that will give one of them what they want or cause disaster to their nations, or wait until time runs out for the bombs over their heads to go off.

A special thank you to SecretBrony01 for proofreading this story.

Once upon a time, in the land of Equestria, there was once a Princess of Friendship who loved magic and literature. One day, she got a note from a friend from the human world to investigate a collection of books that had adsorbed some Equestrian magic and asked her to study them.

Thanks to an accident, those books were sent out to her friends who after discovering the books, fainted, and woke up the next day believing they are the very characters from those books.

So it is up to Twilight and Spike to figure out how to bring the real minds of their friends back before they forget who they really are forever.

This is just a fun, experimental piece where I take the original books from: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum; Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll; Peter Pan by J. M. Barrie; Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl; The Arabian Nights translated by Sir Richard F. Burton; Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales by the Brother's Grimm; and Mary Poppins by P. L. Travers - take certain characters out of those books, and into the bodies of our favorite Equestrians.

Three things I need to point out. The first is that this story is currently unedited. If you are interested in editing, please PM me so we can talk.

The second is that while this story takes place in the universe of Mr. Disc, and taken place a year after "The Curiosity of Mr. Disc," this is not part of the Mr. Disc series. In fact, Julius Disc is actually a side character.

And the third thing that you need to know is that this story does contain both F/F shipping (Lyra x Bon Bon) as well as M/M shipping (Soarin x Braeburn).

To sum it up, if you don't like one or a combination of these, you know where the exit button is.

Taken place about a year after the events that unfolded in "The Curiosity of Mr. Disc," a new teacher arrives at CHS. A Violinist returns teaching after the death of his spouse. In the coming year, he will get to know four of his students where he will help them with their musical abilities while they help come to terms with his grief.

A special thank you to His Majesty PrinceCelestia for the cover art.

"Magic is the sole science not accepted by scientists because they can't understand it."
-Ehrich Weiss (aka, Harry Houdini).

One night in the city of Manehattan, the magician known as "The Great and Powerful Trixie" has moved on with her new life in her newly successful magic show. It was during this night that a certain Spirit of Chaos was spotted by the Stage Director, but he left mysteriously as he'd appeared.

After the show has been set up for the next night, Trixie walks to her apartment during an unscheduled storm which, passing an empty lot in the city's neighborhoods, lightning struck that spot where a new theater appeared. Holding posters and a sign in lights with a very odd name.

Not long after moving into his new home, Prince Dusk Shine gets an unexpected visit from Prince Solaris who seemed to be a bit out of character. Not only that, but the hundreds of letters the Sun Prince accidentally sent, he had them burned immediately.

However, thanks to Dusk's number one dragoness, a few of these letters escaped the inferno.

So what was in these letters that mad Solaris wanted to burn them before Dusk reads them?

A huge thank you to his Highness, PrinceCelestia for the cover art. As well as Shadeol for volunteering to proofread this.
