All at once, I lost everything in my life, and was swept away to a new world in the body of this small... horse... thing. What now? Will I be able to find new meaning in this new world? Will I be able to get over the loss I've experienced? Will I ever confront that deep dark secret that I keep even from myself?

...and will I ever get used to not having hands?

Wooo my first fic ever! Always been a big fan of HiE fics so decided to give it a shot myself. Hopefully it isn't too depressing at the start, I have some cute ideas for some wholesome moments later on.

(Sequal to "Earning Freedom". Might be able to stand alone, but it's best if you read the first one before this)

After Big Macintosh escaped wrongful incarceration, thanks to foreign stallion named: Sin, He, Spike, Sin and another pony with questionable sanity named: Shade traveled around Equestria to live life without the constant frustrations and restraints of home. However, due to a double cross by Princess Luna, Sin found himself on trial for for assisting ponies he believed wrongly imprisoned, liberate themselves from such disgusting misuses of power and authority.

The four were joined by Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie under order of Princess Celestia as Sin's sentence for his guilt. The eight ponies found themselves among the ranks of the "Bloody Sky Captains", the freedom loving crew of the airship "Gonshinian". After seeing life stripped for the first time by the hands of his mentor, Macintosh is in shock. He had never thought death acceptable by any circumstance, though; his life had never been directly threatened before either.

After a brief conflict with the Triple M. airship: "Judgment", The "Gonshinian" has been in travel for the past week due north over the Griffin Empire to transport Sin, a former Senator of the Federation, to his homeland to investigate a suspicious lobbyist campaign. Though the motives are not yet clear, the effects seem to drive a wedge between the representative Senators, and the arbitrating Centaurs. All compliments of a Mega Corporation named: Triple M. and it's well known Vice President: Malich.

This story is a sequel to Flurry Heart's Story: Calming of the Storm

Tirek is brought before Twilight and sentenced to a mandatory reformation class with Fluttershy and Discord while Flurry and Spike tag along for the day to see if it works. Tirek seems to eventually come around until they discover the truth about his motives. Can they actually change the centaur criminal's heart or will his unfettered hatred keep him from listening?

Inspired by the official show, this is part of a fan-made sequel series I created called "Flurry Heart's Story", which documents the adventures of Flurry Heart as she makes friends and faces new and familiar villains, some of which may still be redeemable.

Next story: Apple Family Memories

A long war between the humans of Iceland and the centaur of Equestria is finally at an end.
The Queen Mary and the Great Horselords of Equestria have find amiable terms to put a dispute older than their great great grandfathers finally to rest as they join at the Lord's Pass on their way to Canterlot.

However, not all support the new found peace and would try to stop it from blossoming by nipping it at the bud. Stranger things yet stir in the Everfree Forest and ominous events begin to proceed one another that put everyone on edge.

Harmony: an ideal as old as time itself.
Will it be restored and banish the coming darkness that threatens the infant hope?

In this timeline, Tirek decided not to betray Discord. After the battle with Twilight Sparkle, Lord Tirek ascends to the throne and begins to rule Equestria with an iron fist. Little did the centaur know, however, that his kingdom was going to receive a certain visitor who had been banished by Discord 1000 years ago...
Constructive criticism is welcome and appreciated!

This story is a sequel to Entrenchment

The 38th Company brought many strange and novel things to Equestria.
Technology beyond Canterlot's wildest fantasies. Horrors beyond its bloodiest nightmares.
War, strife, blight, and the dominion of monstrous gods long hidden from the eyes of Equestria's innocent populace.

But the planet known as Centaur III knew the touch of dark magics and evil cults long before the Iron Warriors took their first step upon its soil and constructed their blasphemous idols.
The plot to plunge the world into darkness left many wounds and ancient grudges to fester.
The story of the thestrals, the bat-winged soldiers of the Lunar Guard, is one of misery, bitterness, and betrayal. Their history is little more than desperate quests for power and anticlimactic failures, all mere footnotes now as the survivors quietly return to service under their humbled, purified Princess.

Alas, some scars do not heal.
You reap what you sow.

This story is a sequel to Iron Hearts: Book 2 - Ferrous Dominus

An MLP/Warhammer 40K crossover, part 3.

The formal negotiations between Equestria and the Iron Warriors have failed. Yet peace and even cooperation between the harmonious ponies and the corrupted militants blooms in the dark corners of Canterlot and the open streets of Ferrous Dominus. The Elements of Harmony are safe, trade flourishes, and cautious meetings grow into lasting friendships as an unsteady calm descends upon both forces.
Even the Tau threat seems to have mysteriously vanished as the Iron Warriors refuse to assault their hideouts and risk springing the traps of the Fire Caste.
But the Tau have not vanished. The Lamman Sept of the Tau Empire, the Fire Caste's hidden dagger, have come to grips with the slumbering giant looming over their doorstep and have moved forward into the final phases of their plan. Fleets ply the void, hunters stalk the orchards, and in the depths of the badlands a strange device is rapidly assembled for purposes unknown.
The Tau alone know that time is running out, and more than just the fate of Centaur III hangs in the balance.

SIGNIFICANT POSSIBILITY OF EXPLOSIONS.

A day before Sombra's and Chrysalis's wedding, and Sombra feels a dark power outside of their home.

Realizing this could aid them in having their revenge on the ponies that killed him and most of her children, they agree to venture out and find the source.

But when they arrive, they realize that a lot of things have changed. They have been forgotten, the ponies seem to be more afraid of this centaur like creature, their mortal enemy is an alicorn now, and no one seems to care that they're trying to take over Equestra again.

and now with that space stuff between the paragraphs.

To escape from Tartarus is nearly impossible, even for one of great magical power. When you've lost your powers and are little more than a withered old centaur, it's even harder. But Tirek has a plan, one that will draw in a creature from a world where life is cheap, hats are plentiful, and gravel is king. Will the Spy take the opportunity to enjoy a well-earned vacation in this new world, or will he see the population of friendly, innocent ponies as just a fresh selection of backs to stab? It could be both!

(Takes place before the beginning of Season 9.)

This story is a sequel to From Your Most Grateful Admirer

Tirek and Discord's past has been entwined since before the two met on the streets of Manehattan. In fact, Tirek once knew Discord as the pony he hated most, the one that he believed to be the cause of his fall. That isn't the only connection they have though; something is coming to Equestria which both Discord and Tirek know all too well, and in preparation for its arrival, Discord has decided to make some special provisions, and have some fun along the way.

Revenge is sweetest when you can get it without feeling the slightest bit bad about it, and what better way to get his revenge on Tirek than this? Some forced existential alteration will cause some wonderful chaos and help him prepare for the coming danger.

He just hopes it isn't too late to save Equestria.
