With the early escape of Nightmare Moon, things in Equestria take a sudden turn. Especially when she creates a virus amongst the pegasi. This event changes the lives of the mane 6 in ways unforeseen by Celestia as they struggle to solve this mystery.

Twilight Sparkle finds herself head-deep in solving the virus. She travels with Spike across Equestria and beyond looking for an answer.

Rarity, seeing the humanity in those infected, works to find a way to integrate them into pony society.

Applejack, suffering in shock due to the sudden death of her parents caused by those infected with the virus, moves back to Manehattan, in hopes of recovering from the trauma.

Pinkie Pie, who is naturally born with the infection, struggles to find happiness for herself, let alone others. It's especially hard when all of her older sisters are uninfected and struggling in this new world.

Fluttershy, a young preteen at the time, is bitten and infected with the virus, causing everyone around her to fear her deeply. Trying her best, Fluttershy works to prove that she isn’t the monster everypony thinks she is.

Rainbow Dash, a halfling born to her pony father and infected mother, finds herself outcasted by both ponies and infected alike. With only Fluttershy as her friend, she struggles to prove her place in the world.

I’ll update when I can and do my best to keep up with comments!

Rainbow Dash isn't what many ponies would consider attractive, but, somehow, she's managed to score a date with a stallion. Now she's at the restaurant, waiting for him to show up.

Thanks to PopMediaVagabond and CleanSweep for giving feedback on this.

Rainbow Dash's life is full of colour: of sunrises and sunsets that dance, of skies so blue you can taste them, of prisms that fracture light and fill one's soul with rainbows. Truly, it is a life where she couldn't ask for more.

Why do ponies fear that? It's as if they're scared of beauty. Or maybe scared of her, possibly.

If only they'd let her enlighten them. But maybe today will be a luckier day...

I know I made promises about what my 50th fic would be. Trust me, I do have them in mind and I will finish writing and publish them, for your sakes and mine. I just didn't want to write two romance stories in a row, that's all, and I figured that I could shake things up a little and try something new.

Thanks to Flashgen for helping me write this. And my sincerest thanks to Hay Tea for making this possible.

Rainbow Dash, having neglected her Weathermare duties for too long, was forced to give Sweet Apple Acres it’s scheduled rain for the day.

After a freak accident involving a defective cloud, she finds herself among the halls of the dreaded Rainbow Factory, told to get back to work by weird cultists and finds that, for some unknown reason, Scootaloo is here as well.

After thwarting the Prisma gathering process, Rainbow Dash has to contend with the Pegasi complicit in the murder of innocent foals, fight her way out of the factory, and put an end to the Pegasus Device once and for all.

There’s no end to the monsters that lurk in the dark.

Ghosts, werewolves, mad scientists, cultists, mutants, zombies, vampires, aliens and more lie in wait in the dark corners of Equestria, terrorizing the night. But the most infamous and dangerous of them all is the legendary witch Twilight Sparkle, with a five hundred million bit bounty on her head.

Seeking fame and fortune, Rainbow Dash sets out to defeat the legendary witch and collect the massive reward. The one thing she wasn't counting on was Twilight being less evil than she expected.

More stories set in this AU can be found here.

Sequel: The Past of a Shy Mare

Rainbow Dash has never been seen around her parents. Nopony knows what they even look like. She's been raising herself since she was a little filly after what happened. She's alone in Ponyville. Her friends have moved on to much bigger things. They write to her and keep in touch, but they never visit. Their schedules are full of other things that need to be done. She tells her parents story now because of the dark secret she has kept since her friends leaving.
This is my first Slice of Life and Sad fic, so I don't know how it will turn out. The idea came from a picture I saw with RD and Fluttershy. I hope you like it!
Also, check the date of this story. I started writing it before we saw her dad in episode 12 of season 3.

A story set in an Equestria that could have been...

Rarity, the personal student of Princess Luna, defeated Daybreaker with her new friends and reawakened the lost Elements of Harmony. With Princess Celestia's return, the long-lost tradition of the Summer Sun Celebration is going to be revived for the first time in a thousand years - but first Celestia will need to reclaim her power over the Sun!

----------------------------

Don't worry, there's no previous story you missed that explains the setting. I was thinking of which characters could have their roles swapped, and I got to thinking - what if I just switched everyone? Depending on how people like this, I might write stories centered around other swapped pairings.

Written for the Secrets: A Swapped Roles Contest

Thank you to all my readers! I couldn't do it without you.

When Rainbow Dash is killed in a tragic accident, she is sent to purgatory. Once there, she is faced with the possibilities of everything she ever wanted... Along with that which she feared most.

[A/N: Haven't written anything sad in a while, so I decided to try this out. Will contain the obvious, minus the OC's. Also, I am not ripping off "That Which Makes Up a Rainbow", I didn't even realize how similar the two were until I started writing it. But no, this is not the same story nor is it supposed to be. It's just something that popped into my head.]

Curious about Five Score? Come check out the story that inspired dozens of side fics and been enjoyed by bronies for years!

Original Synopsis Even though MLP:FiM ended a few years ago, my friends and I still loved the show. Stories, merch, fan art, I loved it all. Things started to get a weird though when I found myself with a cutie mark appearing on my leg. Humans aren't supposed to get cutie marks, so where the heck did this come from? And what's going on with my hair?

More Detailed Synopsis: Five Score is an action/adventure story of the human-to-pony transformation genre. It’s unique from most transformation stories because the transformation itself is not really the point of the story. It’s the inciting incident that raises countless challenges that must be resolved. They are on earth, as a pony, and need to fix this before things get worse. Think about yourself in their hooves for a moment. How are you supposed to change back or even figure out what caused it in the first place? How are you supposed to get food or do anything on Earth without being spotted by humans? If you are spotted or captured, how would you escape? How does one even open a door with hooves!? Did anyone else on Earth get changed as well? How could you get the word out to the other ponies who are themselves hiding? Is it worth risking travel across the country to reach the others? Which of your friends would you trust to help you deal with this? And why did you turn into this particular pony? Surely it wasn’t random chance, right?

These challenges are the tip of the iceberg in this full length adventure novel There’s a lot of humor, many tense scenes, and hell maybe even a war.

But don’t just take it from me, Look what random people on the internet are saying about Five Score, Divided by Four

Luna invites Rainbow Dash on her dreamwalking duties.

Dream-ruining, spider-safety lessons, abduction, and imprisonment ensue.

Maybe the dream realm can't handle this much awesome.
