This story is a sequel to Gull Sentry

The Canterlot Patrol Routes for the Royal Guard are determined by the actions of one pegasus and the two morons that watch him.

Shining has a problem with this.

Reading the prequel is unnecessary.

Hi. My name's James. If you're reading this, then one of two things have happened. One, you're another human that got sent to this shit hole and was able to find my shelter. Or two, you're one of the ponies that found me and I'm probably rotting in a cell or getting experimented on. If the former, good luck. If the later, go fuck yourself.

He has... opinions. One of them is more concerning to Princess Celestia than the others.

Rainbow Dash's morning was pretty much ruined.
She tripped getting out of bed and landed flat on her face, giving herself an aching muzzle.
She forgot to buy her favorite brand of hay flakes at the store yesterday and had to eat plain toast for breakfast.
She found out she had to pull double-duty today and tomorrow on the weather patrol.
Oh, and she found a nearly-dead foal, broken and bleeding at the edge of Ponyville.

The rest of her day became a whirlpool of stress and worry but the colt woke up, thank Celestia.
Something's not right, though. Nopony can find his parents, he's not in the registers, and there's an unsettling look in his eye...

Ebony Dew has a friend that nopony believes is real.

However, she knows in her heart that he exists.

After all, it's his heart in the first place.

An entry for the Science Fiction Contest run by Bicyclette.

Twilight Sparkle has always admired Princess Celestia. Her fortitude, her wisdom, her eternal grace and love for all her subjects. Twilight has often fantasized about what it would be like to be in Princess Celestia's horseshoes. She never imagined those fantasies would come true.

In an alternate ending of the episode 'Growing Up Is Hard To Do' , something goes wrong and the Crusaders are now stuck as adults. How will they deal with being children in older bodies, and how will their friends and relations react to their new selves?

That's what we're here to find out.

Book Knight is the closest thing that Ponyville has to a cop, and hates the fact that he barely does any good with his training. But when Twilight lets him borrow a comic book that she got from the mirror world he'll be inspired to take his job to the next level.

He will become the hero that all of Equestria's criminals (however few they may be) will learn to fear. He will become the Shadow Knight.

(Rated T for fighting.)

This story is a sequel to Rise of the Shadow Knight

Book and Rainbow Dash were called in to handle an emergency assignment in Canterlot. All they want to do is get cleaned up and leave but after some bickering between Book, Twilight, and prince Blueblood, the prince tries to defend his pride by swatting the soldier with a hoof-towel. Book decided to respond the only way he knew how, with a right hook to the face.

Now Book faces a court-martial for his actions as he is placed under house arrest in the castle, but apparently everypony who hears about the punch wants to reward and thank him. Strange, isn't it?
