The Mysterious Mare Do Well132 stories ·138 members

Canterlot. If you ever wanted to raise a family, this would have been the place. But not anymore. These days, Canterlot is infested with crime and murder, with police struggling to maintain order and control in a city gone mad.

But from the darkness, a bolt of black lightning is shot. The police are afraid of her. The populace is afraid of her. Criminals are afraid of her.

The Mysterious Mare-Do-Well has appeared to take back Canterlot from its tormentors...

AUTHOR'S NOTE:
While this story is obviously based on Batman, it's based on EVERY PART of Batman: the darker tones of Christopher Nolan and Frank Miller, with the adventurous wit and charm of Paul Dini and Bruce Timm, the twisted visions of Jeph Loeb and Tim Burton, and even a little bit of Adam West camp. Who knows? Maybe even other heroes will show up...

Glad to see this story is coming together. Can't wait to see more of it. Also

Finally, there was no sewer. The writer of this strange fiction had grown bored with writing about sewers and their dankness,

you are like the only person I can think of who can get away with that. XD

Winter stopped by Canterlot around the end of October, the city welcoming her old friend. He embraced her with an arctic hug as they greeted, covering Canterlot with piles of snow on every roof and a chill in the air. The two sat down to converse over a dinner of building lights in darkness, but unfortunately, Canterlot had quite a bit of bad news to impart.
Her crime rate had become worse since Winter had seen her last. Criminals were running up and down her streets like obnoxious head lice, and refused to behave themselves no matter who her seasonal guest was. It was particularly bad when poor Summer was here. At least when Autumn visited, a strange shadow descended and scared her criminal plague. She wept when she recounted the death of her faithful Police Commissioner. Winter dried her tears, and told her things were about to get better. Afterward, he took Canterlot to bed.

This part made me laugh.
