(Mainly inspired by the ongoing Russian-Ukraine Conflict, minor inspiration from the film 'Fury'.)

TO YOUR CAUTION!!! THIS STORY IS BASED ON AN ALTERNATIVE TIMELINE!!! ALTERNATIVE TIMELINE!!! ALTERNATIVE TIMELINE I've said it enough times just in case a certain group of people gets triggered... I'm not a political type of guy!I wrote this without any political intentions! I just wanted to write a modernized tank battle with griffons and dragons! PLEASE don't open fire on me! Thank you for understanding!!!

It had been more than 2 moons since the beginning of the war, roles switched; the once-invading Draconians were now halted and slowly driven back to the borders. However, more aggressive retaliations were coming from both sides. But the overall war progress is benefitting the Equestrians.

Gerald 'Blitz' Thunderhooves, commander of his Leopard 2A6 '331' Blitzwing MBT, was separated from the rest of his battalion during an all-out retaliation against the Draconian 106th Armor Battalion. Gerald found himself within the enemy EM interference zone to add more disadvantage to his crew. Now he's completely strained with little hope of getting reinforcements.

Gerald and his crew would have to crawl back to friendly forces while being hunted by groups of hostile armors. Throughout their perilous quest, the crew of 'Blitzwing' discovers the true intention of the Draconians' so-called 'retreat'.

They only have a limited amount of time to get this valuable information back to their side to prevent a possible heavy loss of friendly forces.

The words still echoed, spinning clearly in her mind...

Applejack stared at the ceiling, her eyes tracing over the gaps and grains of the wooden rafters for what felt like the hundredth time.  Of course she didn’t “enjoy” being forcibly transformed by magic, and in the split-seconds of the magic working over her body, contorting her, dressing her in riding gear and hardening her flesh into fiberglass, she’d been nearly overwhelmed with fear...

...when it was done, however, she’d felt something different...

...as she went around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around...

A slow-burn descent into an unusual place, as Applejack and the CMC become obsessed with being turned into a carousel. May count as psychological and/or body horror, or maybe fetish-fuel, possibly a trans/queer narrative (?), depending on who reads it.

Content Warning: Contains a lot of inanimate-TF fixation. Nothing really "disturbing" about it, but that's what the story is about.

Because of the horror aspects, I am submitting this as part of the Nightmare Night in April Writing Event. If that interests you, go check out the other stories in that folder!

This is a followup to something that happened in the IDW My Little Pony comics, Issue 78, the end of the Cosmos arc, where the image is from. You do not need to read that to understand the plot, as it's just one scene and I explain everything relevant (I haven't read it myself since it came out), though it's a year-end 4-parter with Discord so you should probably read it either way.

This was an old commission that's sat mostly finished for a while, but was delayed by my severe nerve-damage from COVID.

Rainbow Dash and Twilight, the enigmatic mares of Ponyville, stood out from the crowd with their gothic allure, their bond forged in the depths of shared darkness and intrigue. Together, they sought out adventure, delving into the mysteries that lurked in the shadows, their hearts beating as one in the embrace of their shared interests.

Rainbow Dash found herself caught in a struggle of self-expression. While toughness came naturally to her, fashion and accessories were never her strong suits. Yet, since last night, she grappled with an internal conflict, torn between maintaining her tough exterior and revealing the depths of her affection for Twilight. Would she find the courage to break free from her self-imposed constraints and express her love for Twilight in all its darkness and beauty?

I've been fighting with myself, so that this One-Shot doesn't become another Multi-Chapter-Fic. This "Saga", so to speak called "Gothic Twidash“, contains mostly gothic Horror. Not only will there be horror, there is also slice of life like this: A little of everything.

Spanish version coming soon.

On a day as ordinary as any other, the Cutie Map assigns a new friendship mission to Twilight, who soon becomes concerned about the place it tells her to go.

She will need a lot of courage and willpower when she discovers that her now assigned mission is to reform one of her oldest and most terrifying enemies: King Sombra.

And as the task is carried out, the pieces of the puzzle of the past will begin to fit together and make sense, accompanied by new nascent feelings that no one could ever have believed possible.

[...]

When King Sombra accepts the princess' offer with malicious intentions, he will be surprised with different and unexpected obstacles that will not make things as easy as he thought they would be. Especially when the different attitudes and qualities of the princess in charge of him, instead of making him hate her, begin to create a peculiar feeling of curiosity within him.

However, when a sinister and seemingly powerful evil that is somehow linked to him is unleashed upon Equestria and the Crystal Empire, giving himself the opportunity to explore his feelings will not be an easy task.

This story is a sequel to The Nightmare Conquest Starting

With Rarity as the new Queen of Darkness and Spike as the King they now plan on taking the Crystal Empire. And maybe there's some new recruits that the nightmare force will have.

This was requested by ChazMLPFIM.

The tale of a usual colt with an exceptional thought. One that doesn’t belong in the mind of a young pony. But that’s the dilemma. He’s a pony of Equestria, wistful of what lies beyond.

Starting three years before "The Last Problem." (Season 9, Episode 26)

He’s an ordinary background pony like everypony else. A blank flank that resides in a small nameless town where it lightly snows near Luna Bay—a mysterious magical phenomenon and mundane environment with a bleak, wintry grey ambiance.

Remember his parents. Although doting, they would never endorse a young pony with such a dream.

¿? — ”You’re nothing but a fool. An unusual dreamer with some rootless alibi...” — ¿?

This story will be a reboot of my original story with an entirely new direction and story. We delve into the life of a peculiar farmer woman, thrust into a foreign world through some cosmic mishap.

Lost and directionless, she struggles to find her bearings amidst this unfamiliar terrain.

Life in Equestria continued peacefully after the defeat of the Legion of Doom.
