The magic of friendship flows through every creature, big and small. They just need a little push in the right direction. Tired of living under their masters' neglect, insanity or just plain monotony, the pets all desire (in one way or another) to take life in a new, more exciting direction.

When a mysterious curse is laid on the Elements of Harmony, turning the bearers into pets and their pets into ponies, the misfits embark on a dangerous trek to break it. What was originally meant to be a quick trip around Equestria turns into a harrowing journey that expands from the comfy suburbs of Ponyville to the forgotten ruins of an underground kingdom to the biting tundra of the north, all filled with odd characters, laughter and an evil that has lasted for generations as the pets each embrace their inner hero. Because as we all know: the greatest of legends always start with the smallest beginnings.

It wasn’t Rainbow Dash’s idea of a good time, but watching the Butterfly Migration was a perfect excuse to spend time with Fluttershy. Their conflicting schedules had been forcing them apart for the past few days, and for a while the two simply enjoy each others company. But as the afternoon drags on, and thought’s that Rainbow has tried desperately to fight back begin to surface, things get out of hoof fast. A disastrous accident brings the two closer together than they have ever been before, and soon the peaceful afternoon becomes a fight for survival. This is a story of self discovery, and a confusing, but prosperous relationship between two mares.

The title speaks for itself. The mentally disturbed and loud character from the hilarious Nickelodeon show, Drake and Josh, pops up in Equestria. Chaos and yelling at random things ensue. DON'T EAT HIS ENCHILADA!

Because my friends got me to do it. Damn you guys. What have I created?

Despite only the "Other" character tag, there are a variety of characters.

While you don't have to know about the show - though some jokes will be hit and miss if not I guess - if you haven't watched it, you clearly need to get yourself a DVD or something and watch it. You've been missing out, man.

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy have made plans to spend the day together. Nothing abnormal for two friends. But Fluttershy sees things a bit differently. To her, she finally has an opportunity to open up to her long time crush, Rainbow Dash. Will she be able to work the courage to admit herself to Equestria's most fearless pegasus? Or will her timidness and quite manner leave her true feelings forever her secret? Only time will tell...

The Doctor and Derpy are finally getting married, Dinky couldn't be more elated. They`ll be a real family, and shell have a real father, whats to come. Lets find out, Allons-y!

Every pony in Ponyville knows how Rarity is: Good-mannered, generous, beautiful, organized... But lately shes been acting rather weird.. Unless you think carrying an Applejack doll around is normal, then never mind.

Picture is from the talented Shawnyall and Antiander!

Pinkie Pie was coming over to Fluttershy's house to invite her to a party when she witnessed a shocking scene: Gilda trying to eat Fluttershy's tongue! She immediately knew she had to get her friends so they could stop that mean griffon before it was too late. After all, why else would Gilda have her beak in Fluttershy's mouth?
