Few would suspect that Pinkie Pie would be good at chess. A game as nuanced and subtle as chess requires concentration, strategy, and forethought. None of which Pinkie Pie possesses.

Right?

Something has happened to Equestria. Once a land of love and tolerance, it has been reduced to violence and tyranny.

Twilight Sparkle is the only pony who can remember how the world used to be. Even her former friends can't recall the time they spent together. All they know is distrust and hate.

And so Twilight began to spread her tale, in hopes that somepony would be reminded of the way things used to be. Unfortunately, her claims prove to be a threat to the existing social structures, and she attracts the attention of her former mentor.

I'm aware the story seems incomplete. I have no intention of continuing it at the moment.

A crossover with Homestuck: www.mspaintadventures.com. Knowledge of Homestuck is not required to enjoy the story, but such knowledge does help to explain a bit about what happened to Equestria.

They shouldn't have blamed themselves. While it was true that their actions did bring about the end of Equestria, the entire planet was already doomed and slated for destruction anyway. The outcome was simply unavoidable.

This did little to ease Twilight Sparkle's guilt, however. She had still chosen to research those mysterious ruins at the behest of the princess. She had chosen to decipher the symbols that lined the inside of the temple. She had chosen to inscribe those symbols in a spell and mail the result to Rainbow Dash. The only consolation she could take was that, while by her hand Equestria had been annihilated, it was also by her hand that the Pony race would be saved.

Yet, contrary to her conviction, she did not summon the meteors. They were already here. All they can do now is play the game presented to them.

This story, The Most Dangerous Game, is a pony crossover with Homestuck, by Andrew Hussie. However, I am doing my best to ensure that knowledge of the source webcomic is not required to follow the story, while avoiding making the story boring for existing fans of Homestuck. If all goes well, you should be able to enjoy the story regardless of whether or not you are familiar with what it's based on.

Yeah, it's been done before, but I'm not posting this for praise. I'm posting this because my stupid muse won't leave me alone until I do. Motivation is a fickle thing sometimes.

I do not promise to update. My higher priority is World Without Rainbows.
