Few U-Boat captains were as famous, or as feared, as Otto Kretschmer, nicknamed "Silent Otto." But, when one of the Reich's leading scientist's experiment goes wrong, how did Captain Kretschmer deal with his new surroundings... and the colorful, talking ponies he found there?

In equestria Otto couldn't have arrived at a better time. for equestria has the possibility of going to war with a new empire over seas. Something Otto has experience in.

THIS ALL TAKES PLACE AFTER THE FIGHT WITH TIREK.
(Also I'll be editing the tags as I go)
(If you see any errors please let me know in the comments)

A soldier from the frontlines of the Equestrian Civil War returns home, out of place and out of touch with the world that he once called home and struggles to fit in. Little does he know his past will be coming back to haunt him.

There are guns, and ammo. No wings above the treeline. No teleportation. Other than that, it's no rules, no limits. Last pony standing gets to enter the throne room. Last pony standing gets the prize.

These are the rules that every subject in Equestria learns as Princess Celestia decides to host an all-out, all-Equestrian paintball brawl in the Everfree Forest. Everypony makes their own plans and soon enough, factions create in the race for the promise of “whatever their heart desires”.

For some, it’s just a game of friendly competition. For others, the stakes are much higher, and in the Everfree Forest where everything and anything goes, it isn’t long before a series of strange events makes our six heroes wonder if they’re playing paintball... or if there’s something much bigger at play here.

Friendship. Power. Trust. Glory. All these elements and much more clash together in Ponyville Paintball, starring Jodie Foster as Applejack.

AUTHOR'S NOTES:

In this fic you will find that a few things don't exactly make sense when compared to the canon universe of mlp. This is because this story was stared way back in 2012, and a few things that might have made sense when written at the time are now canon-contradictory because of advancements in the FiM series' story arcs. For example, Twilight does not use her wings in this fic, because she became an alicorn long after this story actually began curse you MA Larson. If you're sensitive to this sort of thing, please bear with it. I should also stress that such details are few in this story.

To the next person who says this story is like the hunger games, I will come to your house and stab you in the eye with a spork. seeing as how I've run out of sporks due to the insolence of your comrades, I will funnel elephant shit in your ear through a vuvuzela, wearing a Pinkie Pie mask while Winter Wrap-Up plays in the back at full volume.

Every four years Equestria and the Griffon Empire go to a mock war to celebrate seven centuries of peace.
With the recent population growth in the Empire however, the little ponies find themselves greatly outnumbered and suffered an humiliating defeat four years ago. This year however is different. The great and powerful Trixie has summond creatures from another dimension and turned them into ponies to fight in the war.
This is how I remeber the days of the Equestrian Mock War.

Wrote this short story just for the hack of it. Inspired by the New Artits Training Ground on Equestria daily and by a story by D'Koda with the same theme. I think I tried a different approach though.

War. War never changes. Two sisters, co-rulers of Equestria, will find that boredom may tear even their shared-kingdom apart.

Come one, come all to the first annual Ponyville Paintball Competition! Wait, can ponies even..? Nevermind. How they shoot isn't important. What IS important is the prize: a year's supply of cupcakes from Sugarcube Corner. Enough to drive a town full of ponies crazy? Apparently. In the chaos that ensues, expect all sorts of action film references, both obvious and subtle, and the kind of craziness that only ponies shooting each other can bring. Action! Drama! Romance! All of this and more in My Little Paintball!

Twilight Sparkle and the gang go paintballing. Of course, there's no entertainment without the use of paintball miniguns or paint grenade launchers, right? Twilight soon discovers that while friendship may be great, shooting someone in the face is a hell of a lot more fun. Although these ponies are the very best of friends, there can only be one winner. While the result is uncertain, there's only one thing that's for sure: hilarity and plentiful amounts of paint shall ensue.

For Memorial Day 2015

Some holidays are for happiness. Some holidays are for relaxation. Some holidays are to appreciate. But there is only one holiday to grieve. To some, that holiday means more than others.

This story is a sequel to ...But Duct Tape is Silver

Given that chance to get one more stab at Octavia, Vinyl would take it without question. Given the chance to forget some impertinent detail like leaving duct tape on Octavia's favorite chair, again, Vinyl would do so without a second thought. Too bad Octavia remembers things like that.

Rated Teen for lots of alcohol, jokes about things mares do with stallions, and language your mother wouldn't like to hear you use.
