Spike has long been confused about his past. He remembers a father and sister that no one else does, ones that don't fully make sense. He remembers the demon that killed him...but then he was not dead. He can't remember what happened next.

Now, what begins as a journey to help his oldest friend clear his name turns into an epic quest to save the world. As he journeys, he will discover the truth about himself, his past, and the world around him. New friends will aid him, and an ancient power will awaken. A great evil stirs deep beneath the surface, and it is his destiny to face it. But he will not face it alone.

Crossover with Breath of Fire 2. An idea I had that seemed to fit, and the BoF 2 characters matched up better then BoF 1.

Starting from chapter 14, proofreaded and Edited by QuBit many thanks for job well done. You are awesome!

After a failed attempt at casting spell by Twilight, Spike gets sent to the void, a place which is unlike any other. What will happen to the poor dragon if he were to return one year later, changed, to the world he once knew with horrible memories slowly eating at his mind and only his friends to help him through it all to stop the terrible evil which makes its way to Equestria?

A Spilight story with some fiction to make up for Spike's age and additional knowledge to keep the story moving. Not too much fluff or action happening too fast... everything has its time and place because true love matures slowly!

What can you expect:
-It will be long, I have planned 30 chapters including Prologue & Epilogue so the action might be a little slow at times.
-Spilight but in later chapters. I want to take it slooooow
- Gore: Yes...not at first, but there will be chapters with heavy scenes which might be too...detailed or not suited for sensitive readers as I do have medical knowledge about the subject.
- Sex: Yes, but probably hinted at, in chapter 28. Might write a stand alone CLOP-fic later.

Author note: Be advised, chapters from: Prologue to chapter 13 are not edited.

Tirek has won his fight against Twilight and decides to ensure his victory in full instead of storming off to destroy Equestria. Too bad there is someone that can stop him.

Now Spike is forced to act to protect his friends thanks to someone doing something that wasn't in the plans of Celestia. Rather impressive considering no one else had tried to do the same before.

*If you are feeling generous you can buy me a Ko-Fi!!

Spike shows up on Fluttershy's doorstep at the crack of dawn, professing heartbreak and asking for a shoulder to cry on. Fluttershy does as every pony should: she makes him a pot of tea, and sends him off to bed.

This is the story of where that takes them.

This turned out to have three endings. In order they are Bad, True, Happy, and have been placed in the story where they would have occurred had I written them 'in flow' if you will. They are not tied to each other and you only need to read the one you want to get an end to the journey. Thank you to everyone who supported this to the end. It was a lovely trip

Featured briefly on 12/22/16! Thanks all, for the wonderful Christmas gift!
Featured briefly every time I actually update! You guys have no idea how happy that makes me, thank you so much!

All her life she wanted children, now that she’s finally given what she desired for so long she’s never letting go of him and though they may not interact much in the public eye, they love each other with all their heart and will get through anything life throws at them. As mother and son.

Chapters are not connected unless otherwise specified, the romance tag is for both Spike and Celestia being involved with other creatures but each other, naturally. No Spike/Rarity and Celestia/Twilight, so don’t even ask but I’m willing to pair Celestia and Spike with anyone else, even their own genders.

Enjoy.

Very special thank you to my editor SpikeSupreme13, I have no idea what he did but I trust him, you're awesome brother.

Since their birth, the Great Dragon Spike told tales about his brave mother, Twilight Sparkle, stolen from the young dragon by a tragic time spell accident 160 years ago. But now she's back! Her hive of changeling grandkids can't wait to meet her!

A side story to: A Long Life

Arnold was filming yet another Terminator movie, in which he was going back in time again. Some faulty wiring causes it to go haywire. He gets sent into a magical world of Equestia, where a tough, burly man like him never wants to end up. He end up in a world of bright colored ponies.

With cameo appearances and some hard to hear sentences, Arnold must figure out how to get home. As now, he is...
The Termin-Pony.

Book 1: In 2095 A.D., the US launched the first Colony Ship, headed for Centaurus: a planet in Alpha Centauri's habitable zone. The ultimate space race had been won. 40,000 Americans would arrive in ten years and found the first human colony outside our system, all for America. But in 2100, the ship vanished. The "Lost Colony" was never found.

6000 years later, the colonists found a way home from the system the accident sent them to: one of four human nations forged from the survivors of the crash had opened the EarthGate, giving them control over contact with Earth, which they visited immediately, only to find something had beaten them to the cradle of humanity and had wiped all traces of humanity from its surface,

(The Saga now has it's own group! You can find it here! The forums has information on the details of the Alternate Universe, and anyone can join. You can only contribute if you're ranked higher than user, though.

A crossover between Sid Meier's Civilization II: Test of Time's Scifi mode (it's a really awesome experience for those of you who haven't played it. Plus, Scifi mode is already a crossover between Civ and Master of Orion!) and The Conversion Bureau! Earth fell to ponification in 8080 A.D., only twenty years before the Lost Colony opened the gateway home. This was going to be a single fic, but due to a suggestion from Safhell, who preread the chapters I have at the time of posting this, it's being split into a saga! This first story is the introduction, and from there, the story will split into multiple paths following different characters and situations during the ensuing conflict until a conclusion fic is added to end the saga with the grand finale! (If you guys don't like the idea of it being a saga instead of a standalone, let me know, and if enough of you are against the saga idea, I'll just merge them all into this fic).

Please leave constructive criticism for anything I could do better, for I know this fic is far from perfect. Just remember that a lot of things use the mindset present in all Sid Meier's Civilization games, so logic is a bit skewed at times when compared to how things work in the real world (such as the colony ship being all citizens of the nation that launched it and not multinational. It's just how Sid designed the games).

Spike had grown used to being a servant to Twilight in the old library; slaving away most of the day to Twilight, Rarity and Pinkie Pie. Wearing the Apron is just part of the deal.

He is always that odd one on the second row, with no real chance at anything he wanted. Even if they consider him a Hero at the Empire.

His desires are squarely aimed at that beautiful mare at the Carousel. It may be a high goal, but it is what he set out to get from his first day in Ponyville. This dream never faded, the way crushes commonly does.

One day, he found a new and odd Apron down in the basement of the castle. Trying it on more out of curiosity than anything, it leads him on the discovery of his life and Heart.

Not long after Twilight and her friends formed the Council of Friendship, Twilight's life-long partner and assistant, Spike, finds himself increasingly estranged from her and the rest of his pony friends.
Amidst Spike's dilemma and struggle to find his place, strange recurring nightmares cause him to question his origin and identity.
Little does Spike know that those nightmares are merely the preface for events that could tear apart the world and himself.
Will Spike be able to remain true to his friends and himself, even when he discovers the dark secret behind his origin?

This story is just an idea that popped into my head and refused to let go.
It is an exploration of my head-canon as to Spike's history, and its possible (if somewhat exaggerated) outcomes.
I still have no idea where I'm going with this, but I hope you'll all enjoy it nonetheless!
