In an alternate universe, where Equestria doesn't exist and neither does the magic, Sunset Shimmer and her friends are aspiring musicians in their marching band who work and practice to be the best musicians they can be.

AN: This is the first and probably only story I'm going to post on here just for fun. Any comments or likes would be appreciated.

Persephone Gaia Blake is stuck in a bit of a rut.

While all her friends are off following their respective dreams, she's stuck listlessly working at her hippie mother's witchy souvenir shop, peddling crystals and tarot decks to Salem tourists. She doesn’t believe in any of the ‘magic’ nonsense that the city prides itself on promoting to visitors, but she sucks it up to keep the cash flowing and her mother happy. It’s not like she has anything else going on in her life.

Thank goodness her and her friends’ 25th birthday is here to change all that. But is it a change for good?

Well- jury’s still out on that one.

A spinoff of "Five Score, Divided by Four" by TwistedSpectrum. This story follows the updated mature version set in 2020 where MLP got all 9 seasons (albeit with an alternate ending). You should probably check out that first if you want some general understanding of the world, though I don’t think you have to to understand what’s going on. Up to you!

An alien pod with an odd watch inside falls to Equestria from outer space, said watch jumps onto the hoof of a young colt, and now this colt with his new friends at the School of Friendship have amazing Adventures along with his cousin Flash Sentry and the Mane Six as he gets amazing alien powers from this watch.

A few months ago, Cherrilee's life changed for the better when she met a beautiful, funny, and intelligent mare in a Canterlot bar.

But that all changed when the Changelings attacked. Cherilee heard nothing from her marefriend for almost a whole week before she unexpectedly turned up on her doorstep, covered in bruises. While concerned, Cheerilee couldn't help but wonder, where did her bruises come from? Where had she been this last week? Eventually, Cheerilee couldn't help but consider...

Is my marefriend a Changeling?

Perhaps asking Twilight Sparkle for advice wasn't the best idea.

Controversial yes, but I lack the skill to draw my own, and funds to request a drawing.

People will do anything to distract themselves from their problems. In an age where the situation could be both a hundred times worse and a thousand times better, there are still stories floating around. You know the type: a young human gets snatched from his/her homeworld and dropped in a land far from home, and they have to either shape up or ship out before it's too late.

Replace "human" with "Reploid", and you have a good idea what's happened to me. This land of Equestria is as completely alien to me as I am to its residents. If I can't return home then I'll have to figure out how to adapt to its environs, but my time and options are running out quickly. I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm getting desperate.

I am Fairy Leviathan, one of Neo Arcadia's Four Guardians, and I will gladly accept your help if you have any to offer.

There is a Frequently Asked Questions blog on this story. Please read it first before getting into the story. Thank you.

Don't know about the 'Human' tag for this one, as it's kind of iffy. Personally I think it's alright, as Reploids are close enough to 'human' for it not to matter, but your mileage may vary.

Has a TV Tropes page here.

Twilight and her friends were invited to celebrate Hearths Warming at the Crystal Empire, abandoning Spike in the process. Spike is sad and wonders what he should do. Then, bad things start to happen around Ponyville and the Everfree Forest. Can spike with the help of a new friend of his stop these bad things before it hurts everyone in Equestria?

When Isabel's hiking trip turns into a fight for survival in an unknown land, at first everyone is excited. But as hours turn to days, it becomes a desperate struggle for survival.

The Rainbooms were on a field trip to the laboratory in Canterlot City. But then suddenly they became bonded with a race of aliens called the Klyntar they need to learn to work together with them as they help a man named Eddie Brock after he lost everything. But he might regain a new life after they take down the evil weaponized Riot.

This story is a sequel to The Blue Mage

When Apple Bloom, Daring Do, and Trixie discovered an alicorn prison dating back to the time of the alicorn purge, they were shocked to find it held two seemingly innocent alicorn fillies. Leaving them with Twilight, Spike revealed that they weren’t just any alicorn fillies; they were the daughters of the most dangerous alicorn to ever live. Now they must find their way in a world far different from the one they knew.

Meanwhile Twilight, with the help of Daring Do, begins checking on the remaining alicorn prisons that are hidden throughout the land, both within Equestria and beyond.

This story follows directly after The Blue Mage, and has a lot to do with the Alicorn Imperium and the Alicorn Purge that was introduced in Child of Misery, so reading both will be necessary for this story.

This a story about a big group of friends who keep equestria at peace even though there are other groups helping the creatures and ponies keep their peace even when Venus returns years after night mare moon's defeat.
