Just about everypony in Ponyville knows Scootaloo. She's your normal, carefree pegasus foal who crusades for her cutie mark, zips around town on her scooter, and looks up to her idol Rainbow Dash. But what if that's not all there is to her? Scootaloo worries that her friends will find out that she's not the foal they know and love, or that she's not even a foal at all. But, when her secret does come out, their reactions might surprise her.

Ponyville is in for some change.

After Mayor Mare suddenly goes missing, A rather strange new mayor steps in to take her place. The ponies in town seem to like him, but Twilight is not so sure.

Is she just being paranoid?
Or is he really hiding something?

Only one way to find out...

This Rainbow mare wished upon a star,
not knowing what was looming just afar.

She soon forgot about her little pact,
Never knowing it would actually come back.

Here is the tale about the young mare,
When all she got was a lot of despair.

Obsession. That's a funny little word. It can mean oh so many things to oh so many ponies. They tell me that I've got an obsession. And you know what? They're right. With what, you ask? Why, that's simple: the Elements of Harmony. I have watched and stalked after them my whole life, only now do they take form.
My Whole life has been one long quest, one long lust, after the Elements. But is it not the powers of Harmony nor the mares themselves that I crave, no. I desire their antithesis: Gloom, Penury, Faithlessness, Facility, and Spite. I shall assign them to the ponies who best represent these forces. Why do this? Simple really. Because I must and because I can. Yet of these two forces the second in the greater; I do this because I choose to.
And in the end history will remember me as a hero.

Cauterium

On the run from the law, Twilight must warn and gather up her friends to go stop Celestia and her evil tyranny

ABANDON ALL HOPE YE WHO ENTER HERE

The epic story written by Dante Alighieri ponified and translated to a simpler form for younger viewers. Watch as Twilight Sparkle traverses the deep depths of Pony Hell overcoming all matters of evil. Discord, Nightmare Moon, Manticores, Hyrdras, Cockatrices!
(DEAR CELESTIA NOT THE COCKATRICE)
Disclaimer: I in no way believe this is anywhere on par with The Divine Comedy and is merely my show of affection for Dante's Inferno. I've been asked to add that these conversations are written with my own words, these are not direct translations from Dante's Inferno. While much of my creative process directly ties into the three translations I own, a lot of conversation is merely an old-fashion dialect I recreated. (Except for the first and last stanzas in each Cantos) I assure you these are my own words, and are not any sort of plagiary. For those expecting the religious context intact I sadly did not keep it in for reasons of pony universe. The broader scope is there, but no catholic church bashing my friends.

Everypony in Ponyville is having a blast, what with Christmas coming up. But one pony, Scootaloo, isn't having a great time. Rainbow Dash is in the hospital, after she and Scootaloo encountered some rough ponies. She had some scratches, but Dash had some major injuries. Scootaloo worries that Dash won't make it. The Mane Six and some others notice her droopiness, so they team up to make a super fun party for Scootaloo's happiness, also included with some singing! This musical is a joy to read, unless you don't like your favorite pony being injured and in the hospital!
(Note: Feel free to sing my parodies of songs and post somewhere!
Just let me know, and credit me/the original person who made them! <3, Akemi-chan)

How does anyone face mortality? How would Pinkie face it? A first person POV about Pinkie's last day.

We've seen what Discord did to the Mane Cast. How be broke them all, turned them into sick parodies of themselves. But what about what he did to other ponies? Ponies such as a certain mailmare... What did Discord do to corrupt Derpy?
