Tick, Tock. Tick, Tock

You never know what to expect in life. This sentence is especially true for High Rise. The drummer for a disbanded rock band and accidental time traveler. After being sent back 100 years into the past, High Rise must learn to live in a time that has already happened. While having to avoid breaking history with his actions.

The town of Ponyville’s newest resident brings with him a difficult history. From broken friendships, to lost legends, to being lost in the sea of the past. Will this simple drummer find a way back to his home, or will he be lost to history?

A pet passion project of mine after a resurgence in MLP interest. Will update with more as the words keep flowing.

Events in the story begin at Season 2, Episode 19: It’s About Time. SPOILERS for the entirety of the MLP: FiM storyline.

Ever since Twilight Sparkle and her new friends defeated Nightmare Moon, Equestria has been at peace. But a day barely passes when a mysterious crack appears in the sky above Ponyville.

But the real mystery is what comes out of it...

(Note: This story is Zachary Pyromaniac's arrival from Twilight Sparkle's perspective.)

Trixie will not pay the increased rent on her storage unit.

During a war with the changelings, Celestia struggles to cope with the demands placed upon her. Fortunately, the Doctor has some experience with the stresses of authority, and steps in to give her a much-needed break.
It turns out to be more beneficial for both of them than either could have expected.

First place winner of the 2023 Equestria at War fanfiction contest, somehow—but this should be comprehensible to anypony. All you need to know is that a state of formal war exists between Equestria and the changelings.

This is not at all up to par with my more recent stories, but it was the work that got me back into writing fanfiction, so I have a soft spot for it nonetheless.

Fate and prophesy can be funny things. Sometimes harmony and magic can be a bit unpredictable.

Starswirl's last prophecy was unclear as the greatest spell caster of his day had notoriously bad horn-writing and was equally bad at only writing down half of what he saw in visions.

For generations Princess Celestia has been subtly manipulating the lives of her ponies for generations, using a combination of Starswirl's prophesies and her own foresight to get the outcome she wanted. But she forgot the three most important rules about trying to manipulate future events: 1) The future is like a river. It follows its own currents and makes its own path. 2) The future is always in motion and is next to impossible to predict with any certainty. 3) The very act of viewing the future changes it.

This story is an AU from the main MLP:FiM starting with a deviation from the episode Magical Mystery Cure.

It all started with a single question: What if it was the Mane 6 that became alicorns and not just Twilight?

It's rated T for mild violence.

The Second Draco-Equestrian War is nearing its end, with the Draconian Army in full defeat. It's the finale, the Equestrians are to take back their major city occupied by the Draconians for the past 2 years. This is the 'Battle of Las Pegasus."

However, the Equestrian, in return, faced the toughest resistance from the Draconians. That's when the ERAF faced heavy losses due to an enemy Ace they once thought was extinguished after the 'Ghost 13's permanent retirement...

It was only known that this Draconian Ace's callsign is Checkmate.

Equestrian high ranks had no other choices, the once legendary 'Archangel' squadron had lost its most elite members, and they were at the edge of destruction...

At that point, further training inland is proven to have taken too long and the battlefront situation is critical. They turned their attention to the Mikiro Mercenaries.

In response, Mikiro sent their deadliest mercenary fighter pilot.

The rains of Bridlewood have long brought change to the forest's unicorn inhabitants. During one particular downpour, young widower Alphabittle Blossomforth has his life changed forever, in more ways than one.
