It's time once again for Nightmare Night and the citizens of Ponyville are ready for another night of candy, costumes, ghost stories, and more. After Twilight Sparkle taught her the true meaning of Nightmare Night one year prior, Princess Luna takes the day off from her royal duties and joins in the festivities. But when Ponyville suddenly comes under attack by a mysterious force, Luna is discovered missing in the aftermath. What's more, this force is being commanded by a malicious creature wielding a terrible power that the ponies have actually heard of, but know nothing about.

Once again, Twilight and her friends must take up the Elements of Harmony in defense of everything they hold dear, but if Equestria is to have any real hope of surviving against this force, the ponies must first unravel the mysteries of the power that threatens them.

*NOT A DISPLACED FIC* (anymore)
(First chapter to be revised soon)

Paul was just a guy that wanted to go to Comic-Con International and see the teaser for the new Star Wars movie, but of course, he had to complete his cosplay and buy the replica lightsaber.

Now, he's a Jedi in Equestria, and the ponies need his help. They need him to lead an army against the coming griffon forces.

Paul just wants to go home. He wasn't cut out for a life of war. He wants to go home where it's safe, where he can be just another person in the crowd, and where there aren't mythical creatures trying to kill him at every turn.

But he has decided that he will not sit idly by and wait for a way out while the ponies that so readily accepted him are besieged by the mastermind he brought along with him. He will lead them to victory, that their homeland might be spared.

This is the story of Paul the Jedi Sentinel, General of the Equestrian Armed Forces.

It is over. Sombra has conquered Equestria, and recently took Griffinstone into his fold. With the warmongering Griffins done with Sombra sets his eyes to the remaining resisting guard outposts and splinter groups. All seems lost for the denizens of Equus, the shroud of Sombra ever expanding, his dark armies marching to devour any resistance. There is one place however, where Sombra's dark armies will not march to. The Undiscovered West is said to host many a peril, but these are just rumors... right? There are many legends associating to this strange land, many say the weather acts on it's own, creatures acting independently... and a strange race never before seen, waiting for its time to strike....

Hello everyone who bothers to pick this up! If you do, I hope you stick around This is my new story, if you cant tell, and I hope it wont turn out like my last one! I have more drive this time around, and a direction to actually take it this time! I will be looking for an editor, so if anyone is willing I will happily accept! And don't be afraid to offer criticism, as long as it's constructive, as I only strive to improve!

My take on the events of the first EQG movie in the continuity of the Hive Series by law abiding pony. Set between the events of Of the Hive and For the Hive.

While representing the hive of Stripped Gear at a Equestrian Princess Symposium in the Crystal Empire, Twilight Sparkle finds the Element of Magic, which she had been using as a crown, being stolen by a mysterious unicorn that escapes with it through a magical mirror. Now it is up to Twilight to find her way in the strange world on the far side of this portal and retrieve the stolen Element before it can disrupt the balance of this other world.

So, Luna finds two colts in the streets of Canterlot. They've had a hard beginning to life and Luna hopes to make it better for them. Read as the two brothers have an adventure as royalty.

This story is to honor Peanut Butter Brony's story "The Life and Adventures of Peanut Butter."

And yes, it is about Night Mist and Peanut Butter, since he was kind enough to have my OC in his story, I'm putting his in my story. Have fun reading.

After discovering a new planet, the Tenno, a race of warriors, master of gun and blade and the warframe, and Lotus, the adviser, travel to find a brand new world with a species they've never seen. Unfortunately, they were followed. The Grinner, a ruthless military organization hell bent on wiping out the Tenno, arrive to find their enemy and an ally to them.

Now the Tenno are not only fighting for their lives, but for the ones of Equestria as well.

Twilight Sparkle is many things, as Princess Celestia is about to learn. Will her newest Faithful Student finally serve a higher purpose?

After the War of the Ring and the return of peace to Middle-earth, Gandalf the White departs for Equestria to visit two old friends of his; specifically, a certain pair of alicorn sisters.

Yet he does not foresee that Equestria, like ponykind, has changed with the years since his previous visit, and so he is quite unprepared for what lies ahead. Can the Wizard endure the trials that this new journey will bring? Surely, but only if he makes a few more friends along the way.

Six more, to be exact.

We all know Fluttershy, a yellow Pegasus pony hailing from Cloudsdale, shy as a fly friend to all animals and practically kindness incarnate. However, the world can be deceiving, what if Fluttershy was not pony but a rare creature called a changeling queen? What would this mean for Equestria and Fluttershy's friends and who else will be drawn in to the fray in this story of the lost and the forgotten?

Chrysalis has taken Canterlot, the Elements of Harmony are captured and Celestia and Cadence are in her grasp, everything has gone according to her plans, she could just sing about how perfect this day has been.

Too bad three fillies, one night princess, and four other hives have something to say about that.
