In a different Equestria than the one we know, a virus broke out thirty years ago, causing mutations in ponies in every way imaginable. Some wished to hide their new powers and forms, while others made quick work abusing them, turning into Equestria's first super villains. The Princesses put out an edict stating that those who wish to fight against these Power Ponies who would do evil would be heavily compensated for their work. It's not until many years later that the first true hero would step up on the city stage, sparking a revolution in Manehattan.

This story was inspired by all the Super Heroes and Super Power shows I grew up with, but after some time creating the world and shaping the characters in it, it became so much more. Twists and turns, changes and escalations await inside the world of Sometimes they call me Super. Our heroes all start out alone and come together to form something that no hero alone could do. Follow the excitement through the eyes of our protagonist and more as they try to defend the city they call home. Welcome to Manehattan.

It's dangerous to go alone, take this!

This is my opinion on what could have happened in the episode '28 pranks later '... (this is my very first story so there might be some mistakes)

Rainbow Dash has turned the entire town into cookie-eating zombies who want to teach her a lesson. Rainbow can't help but feel guilty, she basically killed everypony. But the problem is, she pays for a tragedy that didn't even happen...

Note: rated teen for Death only. And if you don't like character deaths, please don't read it.

What starts as a boring afternoon in Twilight's library soon spirals out of control once Twilight introduces Rainbow Dash to the wide world of Daring Do fanfiction.

Inspired by this revelation, Rainbow Dash takes it upon herself to write the BEST FANFICTIONS EVAR. It can't be that hard, right? All she needs is an idea, a typewriter, and a whole lot of coffee!

It should be noted that "an editor" is not on Rainbow Dash's list.

Discord and Celestia have a conversation before he's defeated.

Written in two hours thanks to these two.
Warning: This has not been edited. Please point out anything you find wrong.
This, obviously, does not take place in the FiM universe. It takes place in one much like it, but there are some pretty big differences.

After a long day of work, Applejack mourns her parents' passing.

Necromancy gets a bad rep.

Oh, sure, some ponies like the whole cliche of the evil zombie master, pulling his puppet strings to make corpses dance and kill for their amusement. And yeah, you kinda do have to work with dead bodies a lot, and most ponies find that a bit creepy. Oh, and you learn a lot of spells to kill things and gain power from it.

But, come on, that doesn't mean all necromancers are bad... right?

Feature on Equestria Daily

Fear...
Darkness...
All he felt was agony and terror. Somehow, he knew he deserved it, and that this could be his punishment. twenty years before he was forced into his shadow form, then another thousand before he even tried to move again. Then he lost. One burst of energy was all it took to destroy him. Everypony else thought he was gone forever, even himself. What will happen when he's given another chance to live? Will he be able to right past wrongs? Or is it simply easier to revert to the dark?

When a filly version of herself appears in the middle of the library, Twilight must figure out what happened. She must figure out what it means. But most importantly? She has to comfort the last person she thought she would ever have to.

Herself.

All while dealing with her own shattering reality.

Thank you Blankscape for massive amounts of help writing it.

And, of course, the person who has been waiting a long time for this story.
Happy birthday Foals! Thanks for sticking with me for so long!

Years have past since the changelings were driven away from Equestria, giving room for peace and love. Suddenly, Twilight is captured in the middle of the night, and is brought to the hooves of Queen Chrysalis. Seeing that she has captured the element of magic, she is determined to gain her revenge against both Twilight and anyone that has ever wronged her.

Using her dark magic, the queen transforms the unicorn into a horrifying creature. Will Twilight hold on to her sanity, and more importantly, her devotion to friends?

Or will she slip into the darkness, and lose all hope.

Props to chaos2012 for bringing me this idea. The story is mine though

Evilpresident is also onboard as a Pre-reader.

Okay, new cover art! This time it was actually made for the fic, so credit goes to BronyInvestigator
I cannot thank him enough.

Apple Bloom has the perfect prank: trick Diamond Tiara into thinking a spell was put on her to make her Apple Bloom's slave.

"What could possibly go wrong?"

Well, when the prank works...

Everything.

Note: This story was conceived pre "Crusaders of the Lost Mark."
