Two young lovers meet once again after seven years of separation. An old flame is rekindled, but can it survive a bizarre turn of events that reveals a secret hidden from them for a quarter century?

A side story of TwistedSpectrum's "Five Score, Divided by Four".
Flags set as tentative, though I don't do explicit well so tend to avoid.

This story is a sequel to Five Score, Divided by Four

I've lived most of my life under the rock they call the "internet", so I know a few things and don't know a lot of things. I can sure tell ya what the heck memes are, but I can't say that I know much about what's going on in the economy. Twenty-five years and I still have just about as much knowledge about government as I did in fifth grade.

In those 25 years, I never thought I'd be going through some of this strange... stuff... that's going on right now with my sister and I. First we end up with tattoos, and now we have tails? Who comes up with this stuff?

*Five Score Divided by Four side fic- Original by TwistedSpectrum

This story is a sequel to Dust on the Wind

The year is 2045 and mankind has taken to the stars. With colonies on mars and the moon, we’ve left the cradle of Earth behind.

It’s been 25 years since the ponies first appeared on earth. 25 Years since the fall of Discord. I was born June first, 2020. The day of the invasion, the day the ponies took back what was theirs. The day Equestria was freed, and I am the last. The last of the 5 score ponies, the last one cursed, and the Last to change.

And this is my story.

First off, I want to give a wholehearted thank you to Kitsy-Chan for her giving me the story idea, and for helping with the research to make this story work.

Cover art by Alkarasu It's AMAZING, btw!!!

Note: This is a Five Score Story in Dust on the Wind continuity. Reading Dust on the Wind is not required, but strongly encouraged.

This story would not happen at all, if it weren't for my pre-readers, Phenrys, Exsnaggerwes, and Kitsy-Chan. Thank you to all of you, your hard work and dedication has helped me to get farther along than I ever would have believed!

And awesome news, I now have an editor for Loopy's story. She's Purple Pegasus and she's been doing an awesome job!

Part of the Five Score universe, by TwistedSpectrum, blending with Dust on the wind by Sparky Brony

Arch 1. Ben Smills worked hard to get where he is in life. He has a stable job, a wonderful girlfriend and a nice home to boot. It wasn't easy, having acquired a brain injury when he was seven and losing almost all his eyesight in his right-eye.

However, that all changed when he woke up to find a group of six bubbles on his flank and turned into a pony from a kid's television show.

Arch 2. When the portal closed, Derpy did not go through. She still needs to find Dinky and, with the help of those she met along her jounrey to the farm, she'll set out and find her daughter.

However, she hadn't really needed to look far, had she only done so sooner.

Tom Wills was Ben's best friend since they were little and Ben had always been protective of him. Tom was finally about to start uni two weeks after people had started turning into ponies.

His plans for uni are altered, however, when his hair suddenly turns bright blonde.

Not long after, other things start happening. He grows a tail, his ears move to the top of his head and become pony ears. He's turning into a pony and, if the fur colour of his ears is anything to go by, he's turning into Dinky Doo.

Will mother and daughter find each other, or will they're paths never cross?

Meant to also be a Slice of Life, but those tags don't like being together

Big thanks to my pre-readers kitsy-chan, exsnaggerwes and Phenrys.

Another big thanks to Sparky Brony for letting me write my fic to coinside with Dust on the wind.

And finally, a huge thanks to TwistedSpectrum for creating the original Five Score story in the first place.

Apparently got into Popular Stories on 14/3/2016 did not expect that

I thought that my 25th birthday wouldn’t be any special. Most of the day I would be busy with a report and in the evening I only had a small party planned with a friend. Well, it turned out that this day would be the start of something crazy. As far as I know human bodies don’t create tattoos out of nowhere. I liked MLP: FiM, though it had ended five years ago, but that’s not a reason to get a cutie mark, right?

A side fic in the universe of Five Score, Divided by Four written by TwistedSpectrum. A really awesome story worth your time.

Chapter 3 proofread by: Hywel and Robertsolution

For seven months I've been with one of the best girls imaginable. We're living together, we're doing well in school- I'd never believe I could ever be this happy.

I also could never believe that, on the night of my 25th birthday, I would look in the mirror and see my hair and eyes turning green.

Nor would I believe that, within the next twenty-four hours I would turn into the queen of a vampiric race of insectile monsters from a cartoon.

Go home, evolution. You're drunk.

(Set in the Five Score universe. ...What do you mean there's already a Chrysalis Five Score story?!)

Fair bit of swearing.

My name is Steve Anello, son of Tony Anello. My old man runs the streets of Chicago with an iron fist. He's the big shot around these parts. However that's all about to change. Today is May 1, which means I'm turning 25. I don't know it yet, but my life as well as my body is going to be forever altered. It's going to be tough in the beginning but once I learn to control these "power's", I'm taking over Dad's operation. That is, if the rest of his boys will listen to a talking magical horse with a blood-red horn.

Rated T for language, some sexual references, and violence.

This is my contribution to Twisted Spectrum's awesome Five Score Universe.

Part Two Has Begun. Also, this story will tie in with another Five Score fic called, A Love For Madness. Read both to see events from different perspectives.

I am just a regular girl. Yeah, maybe sometimes I work a little too hard, or at least that's what Mira says. I guess its just part of my nature. Anyway, that's not my story. One day, I wake up to find a tattoo bearing a striking resemblance to a cutie mark! And not one I've ever seen before! Mira has one too! What's going on here!?

----------
A side-fic to TwistedSpectrum's Five Score, Divided by Four.

Gayle is a fitness nut. Steve is a professional layabout. Gayle is super motivated, Steve is super not. The two are an unlikely pair of roommates, a real life odd couple. While they're such opposites, they're also an unlikely pair of firm, if antagonistic, friends. They also share a special birthday...

So of course, things get interesting, as things are wont to do in stories. On their 25th birthdays, they start noticing... changes. Are those wings Gayle is sprouting, and is that a beak? Is Steve growing a horn on his head... but losing a "horn" somewhere else? Why do the names Gilda and Lazy Bones sound familiar? Time to get the hell out of Dodge! In their quest to find a safe haven they'll stumble across a certain pair of twin brothers and a whole motley crew of other Equestrian castaways in what might be the most bizarre road trip ever! Of all time! And is that love blooming between our intrepid heroes?

A side story in the Five Score, Divided by Four universe.

ALOT of swearing. So beware, if that sort of thing bothers you. Seriously, the main character swears like a pirate on shoreleave.
(The first four chapters were proofread and edited by themultiversewatcher, but since then it's been the incredible and... always interesting PingSquirrel.)

Carl Lee is new to his job.
In spite of his inexperience, along with coursework deadline induced bouts of sleep deprivation, and a serious caffeine reliance, Carl has made it through his first academic year as a secondary Science teacher, and his Twenty fifth birthday is on the final day of summer term to boot!

Things are looking good, but this summer break will be far from relaxing.

Contains strong language, alcohol abuse, and some mildly descriptive violence.

A side fic to Five score, divided by four. from twisted spectrum. if you haven't read it yet, go do that first! it's much more substantial that this little pet project. Now shoo! there's the link.
