They say you shouldn't go into the Everfree Forest. If you must go into the Everfree, never do so at night. If you must go in at night, don't do it the day after zap apple jam season. And if you must go the day after zap apple jam season, please for the love of Epona don't wander into timberwolf territory.

They said those things to Bright Mac and Pear Butter. They laughed and shrugged it off, and... well, we all know how that turned out.

They said those things to Applejack, too. But she didn't listen. And now she's running for her life from a pack of the ravenous beasts, lost in the dark and with no one around to help her.

But she's not afraid. Not tonight.

Spike had always caught my eye, but I wasn't expectin' for him to steal my heart. After his fight with Twilight, I thought bringin' him on the farm would help him, not harm us both with a good time. Though I wonder... can I get him to like me back?

Drunk Applejack by xcopyen002

For three proud generations, the Apple clan have been some of the finest monster hunters Equestria has ever known. But that's all about to change. You see, Applejack met a special somepony, and she's not quite like other ponies...

Happy Nightmare Night everypony!

He was always the antagonist, but he never hurt anyone. They were used to foiling his outlandish schemes, but he has gone away and now those who stopped him are left to cope.

In loving memory of Stefan Karl Stefansson

“I ain’t just a farmer anymore and you ain’t just a fashion designer anymore. Now we’ve got new titles.” She placed a hoof on her chest. “Element of Honesty...” -- she moved her hoof to Rarity -- “and Element of Generosity. Saviors of Equestria and whatnot.”

When Applejack was a filly, she'd been told a hundred times by her parents that she was special. This... this isn't what she expected.

Rainbow Dash and Applejack have been dating for well over four months. In all that time, the pegasus has been content with whatever Applejack wants to do to her in bed. However, she soon discovers that something is missing. She needs to tell Applejack, but... she's worried. What if her marefriend will see her in a different light?

Contains: Sleepy Applejack and Rainbow Dash, Internal monologues of an insecure pegasus, consensual snuggles, yawns, and other cute things that people with heart problems should avoid reading at all costs.

~~ Hey, check out my totally awesome friend Naviskypegasus who made a reading of my story! Oh, and here's the link to the reading on YouTube!

Of course Applejack wants everypony to think apples are the best. Usually, she doesn’t flip out about it, though. What did Dash do to get her in such a snit?

An entry in scribbler’s 2018 BronyCon fiction contest. Featured on Equestria Daily.

Each of the chapters of this fic is an independent story featuring one of the Mane Six having an encounter with the supernatural. They are presented as one story because of their common theme. The stories are:

Fluttershy: The Curse of the Night When Angel falls sick, Fluttershy ventures into the Everfree Forest at night to find a remedy. Though she faces danger, she escapes... but not unchanged.
Rarity: Blood and Water You know the story. Rarity gets seduced by a creature of the night, and her friends don't realize what's happening until it's too late. They find the vampire who turned her and destroy him. But then what happens?
Rainbow Dash: The Big Battle Discord's defeat didn't erase every trace of his influence on Equestria. Fortunately, hard-working ponies are already gathering the remnants of his power into Manehattan for easy disposal. What could possibly go wrong?
Pinkie Pie: Gallows Humor Pinkie Pie, Ponyville's premiere prankster, is dead. So why haven't the pranks stopped?
Applejack: One of the Herd Applejack may be in charge of Ponyville's biggest farming community, but that doesn't mean she can't take a break now and then. Besides, tonight's meteor shower should be even better than last night's...
Twilight Sparkle: The Case of Wild Clover the Warder It's a boring day in Canterlot, and Twilight Sparkle has time to kill. Maybe picking up an old lot of books will brighten her mood.

Feedback and error-spotting welcome!

The Apple family reunion got really awkward this year.

Entry in the Sunset Shipping Contest!

This story is a sequel to The Fourth Season

Sunset’s ambition is about to take her on the next step of her life: a three month tour teaching the ponies of Equestria about the human world. Three whole months. This is a good thing. It’s a great thing. Honest.

So why does Applejack feel like her world is about to fall apart? Both terrified and desperate for answers, she sits alone at a familiar gazebo and tries not to make a phone call that could change her life forever.

NOTE: Knowledge of The Fourth Season is not at all necessary to enjoy this story.

Written for Oroboro’s Sunset Shipping Contest: Journeys. This is all his fault and you should all blame him for making tempting me to write this when I should be doing other things. My habitual desire to enter contests is not my own fault.
