While imprisoned in Tartarus during the events of "Twilight's Kingdom,", Celestia, Luna and Cadence are visited by a strange and mysterious figure from Celestia and Luna's past who attempts to comfort them in Equestria's darkest hour.

Familiars, the companions that we summon to be by our sides, to be there for us when no one else will, to defend us when no one else can, can take any shape or form, relevant to our past, present, or future. Such as is their duty, to ensure our prosperity. -Starswirl The Bearded

Familiarus, an age old spell just recently rediscovered that summons up the warrior of your soul, to stand by your side, and serve you till the end of your days. Loyal to a fault, they will do anything for you without question, as is their purpose.

But what would you do if your familiar took on the shape of your most hated past? What if it looked like a horrible monster that you had hoped was gone forever?

What would you do, with a Familiar Nightmare?

Arceus has been imprisoned for many millennia, and in that time he has watched his world fall apart. But once he is finally freed from his prison he decides that to protect his Pokémon, and his family, that he will move the Pokémon, and a few select 'humans' to a world where they might live in peace, Equestria. However, not everyone on this new world shares his view of peace and the very presence of the Pokémon upsests some of the citizens of the world, even some of the ones he brought with aren't too happy with the situation. But a god's will is a strong thing and without his willingness the Pokémon and the citizens of Equestria are going to have to learn to get along, or at least tolerate each other. And there's a slight problem with some of the humans too, well, former humans that is.

I also have a Tvtrope page that is kept somewhat up to date by Kingofsouls if you know how to Trope, and want to help set it up, go here Tvtrope Link.

Since a lot of people keep aking this I'm gonna put an explanation here. I'm not following any one canon-verse here, I'm making a hodge podge universe with bits from the Manga, Anime, Games, and Movies, as well as some etcetera concerning issues addressed in none of them to great lengths. (Arceus' power is far beyond what he has in the games or movie and this does contain some Pokephilia, which comes from pretty much no canon material ever.)

When a six year old human boy is transported to Equestria by accident, he will need a home. Everyone needs shelter, protection and love to live a happy life, but who could love a predator from another world? Luckily for young Chris, somepony steps up to the plate.

Shattered Skies has lived quite some time. He had done well for himself over the past few thousand years; staying out of the public eye and remaining generally uninvolved from pony society while he tended his forests.

Who wouldn't want that, right?

His job came with excellent security and fringe benefits, but after he was betrayed by a princess he trusted, all he wants to do is to live a normal life even if the world tells him otherwise.

The last thing Specialist Odom remembered was falling asleep in the back of a truck bouncing along the dirt roads of Fort Carson's training areas. Thus, it was with great surprise that he found himself waking up in the middle of the forest with avian eyes staring at him in curiosity and fear.

On an alien world with alien languages, can Odom survive long enough to find out where he is? Or will he find himself turned into a gourmet meal for the local lord?

Or will they find another use for him?
