Twist is a complex filly with simple needs. When circumstance prevents her from fulfilling her desires, things can get quite chaotic for everypony around her.

A tale of rivalry, thirst, and shameless corporate tie-ins.

Twilight wakes up one morning as a dog. Also, Spike is now a fish. Pretty self-explanatory, really. And believe it or not, the day is about to get even stranger.

A post from Hasbro shocks bronies and pegasisters around the world.

Fans cry in despair as Hasbro confirms the tragedy: “Season 9 will be the last season of Friendship is Magic.”

And to you, a fan of the beloved series and fandom you’ve been a part of for years, it was too much to bear. That’s it- It’s coming to an end. My Little Pony Generation Four is closing it’s curtains- It’s universe put to bed forever.

All has been lost. It’s done. It’s goodbye...

Or is it, though?

Commemoration for the 2nd saddest day of My Little Pony History. Generation Four will be missed when it’s over, you have my word.

EDIT: Wow! This is now my best story to date! Thanks, everyone!

After a spell misfires, Twilight and Big Macintosh find themselves trapped in a world like none they've ever seen before. Together, they will face adventure, hardship, loss and longing, as their shared experience brings them closer together.

Applejack needed to run. She needed to get away from him. So she just kept right on running.

Peewee has been living with his phoenix family for a while, happy to be with them. Recently, however, the young phoenix has grown homesick for his old caretaker Spike. One day, he decides to bid his family farewell and return to the dragon who saved his life. Thus begins a long and epic journey involving mean dragons, a flirtatious robin, an epic space battle, and more!

(Note: Not all of those things will actually appear in the story.)

Advance, lunge. Retreat. It's about speed, but no one can run away. Sunset never thought she'd get the chance to show how far she had come, not in this. Her friends were by her side and they'd always be the greatest change in her life, but this was important too.

Changing bodies when she crossed over to the human world was hard enough. It was a challenge to write, and even harder to learn how to play the guitar. But this sport, fencing, felt nigh-impossible to master. But that was years ago.

Feint, disengage, lunge for the feet. Every time it's a lunge, firing the body like a magic blast from a unicorn's horn, only stronger. Every time she could feel the impact. The bending steel, it spoke volumes about how good the hit was.

Canterlot High had only ever had a fencing club, but the Inter-regional Fencing Tournament would be open to every young fencer, including upstart professionals. Schools like Crystal Prep would be sending their own team members, real competitors who lived with a sword in their hand. But none of them had to go through what Sunset did. She'd win for CHS, and finally give back to the one place that had done so much for her.

Telling scary stories around the campfire is a long camping tradition, but when Applejack gets tired of hearing Rainbow Dash tell the same story with different words, she decides to share one of her own that her mother told to her, a long time ago. It couldn’t possibly be true, of course, no matter what Pear Butter had said all those years before.

It’s not as if anyone has ever seen any proof, after all.

The Mushroom Kingdom never takes a break when it comes to the invasion of Bowser and his minions. However, things take a different turn this time when Princess Peach gets kidnapped and taken away by a new evil force to a place called Equestria.

Now, Mario and Luigi must team up with Bowser to collect certain valuable items for the mysterious figure in exchange for Princess Peach. Little did they know that they’re not the ones looking for these Equestrian items...

NOTE: This story takes place before Season 8. I do not own Paper Mario or My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. All rights reserved go to Nintendo and Hasbro.

Octavia has become complacent in her everyday life. She struggles with her job, her position in the Royal Canterlot Orchestra, and the back and forth of the Hoops she must constantly dive through to feel 'Successful' . Only to come to terms with herself, that she will not find success in a title. That Happiness is not in a big, dark, empty house every night, with not a friend in sight every time she wishes to socialize.

Her life has been an uphill battle from the day she was born, to where she sits now, her determination unwavering but her hooves becoming stale. Her life is a bore and the world outside of "Her World," Canterlot's Elite, the safety of Big City life, and the countless nobles who only ever attend social gatherings to slap their money around. are boring. Her life has become null and her passion to surpass expectation, void. So. Now she must ask herself, while she can still decide. What must she do in her life to make a difference? For herself? . The only Pony whom she's ever, EVER had to care for?

Change of course. Make that big, scary, leap of faith and try something new. Something unexpected. And break the mold others have made around her.

This story is about, 3 or 4 years old now I think. I made this story in a grey void in my life, and found some. Inspirational Music by an Artist who has since left the Fandom. You may have heard of him, "Evening Star"
(Edit 6/27/20: He's returned! Sort of- he's remaking all of this music! It's really touching.)

This story is dedicated to everyone. Even those who don't like Octavia, for whatever reasons you might have.

This story is for everyone. For everyone willing to read it, and for everyone willing to enjoy it, and see it for what it is. I have held this short, meaningless story close to my chest, because it has been my proudest work. And I have kept it in complete and total secret because it was so important to me, because it was how my heart and my mind figured out where I wanted to go with my life. And now, I think is time to give it to you all.

With the Fandom seeming so strange and different than when I originally wrote this story, I think now might just be the perfect time to give it to the Fandom. Though. I know that it won't be likely seen by many, I hope that for those of you who do find it. It will make you smile. Your day will be beautiful and your life will be more colorful.

And may it remind you, of better times. Times from whence you came while looking ahead, at the big and scary new world ahead. May it help you find your path to. "To Something New."
