"Suppose I killed them all?"

After reading a book by Spitfire's personal trainer, Rainbow Dash decides that the best way to get closer to her ultimate goal of joining the Wonderbolts is to add strength training to her practices by having one of her friends ride her. However, when she decides that Twilight Sparkle is just the mare for the job, the pegasus gets a bit more than she bargained for.

It has been three years since Equestria emerged into the Pacific Ocean. While the random hotspots of thaumatic radiation have subsided, one all-important question has remained unanswered: Why is magic only harmful to humans and higher primates? Dr. Amy Getton, Fluttershy, and a squad of Royal Guard veterans venture into the African jungle in an attempt to both answer this question and begin to work on ponifying the higher primates. But a dark threat lurks in the shadows, with its own nightmarish agenda.

It can be said the multiverse is a series of rivers, each one its own reality, all flowing infinitely close to each other, but never touching. When one river receives a sudden influx of energy and overflows its banks, touching another reality in the process, two species must come to terms with their sudden awareness of the other. And as the deeper ramifications of their meeting become apparent, both species must make a choice as one.

While this is a direct sequel to In Duty's Name, it is not required to read it. It is recommended, as it will help you get to know everypony better :)

This is a re-imagining of The Conversion Bureau universe as originally created by Blaze. All Canon characters are (c) Hasbro and Studio B. All Original Characters are (c) to their respective owners

Remember Cupcakes? Remember thinking how funny it would be if someone rewrote it to be completely sanitised and family-friendly? Oh. Well here it is anyway.

Credit to Sergeant Sprinkles for some of the dialogue carried over into this. As well as, of course, for writing this story's inspiration.

19/1/12: Made a tweak to a couple of sentences that felt clumsy. No major changes.

Based on Cupcakes. When something happens that no one can foresee the mane cast will learn just how far fear can affect their group.

Rainbow Dash is missing in action, right after Pinkie Pie debuts a new line of pastries. Coincidence? (Yes.) Armed with a half-read copy of Sweeneigh Todd, the Cutie Mark Crusaders are out to uncover the grim truth!

Or, more likely, embarrass themselves.

Pinkie is delivering a mysterious package to Ponyville, but nopony, even her friends, want her getting near the town. They try to capture her at all turns, but what is so important, and why are these best of friends fighting?

Pinkie Pie always throws a party for new faces in Ponyville, whether it be baby, old, insane, or timid. So how is she going to react when she sees her own face covered in blood and throwing a party for her? However the reaction, we can all agree that this will not end well for anypony...

A one shot piece based on a song made by one of my best friends, you can have a listen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPKNrf_Ka7U&feature=plcp

A hybrid Changeling/Earth Pony that was born to an unidentified Changeling mother and an Earth Pony father must cope with the daily pressure that she experiences, as she is pushed to her limits of adversity within herself and of darkness from elsewhere.

> ABOUT THIS STORY <
- This story takes place AFTER the Changeling invasion.
- Chrystil Mist, as said in the context, is 18... around the age (20) that I depict the Mane 6 to be.
- Some Chapters are MEANT to be slightly vague, while others are meant to be more in detail.
- This story was a project that I have been working on for a WHILE, but the beginning isn't to perfection as I had hoped ;(
