Long ago, magical life fled to a domed continent on the ocean floor. Ponies are Shifters (can change between their Equine, Anthro, or Human form). With the arrival of Harry Potter in their land, they learn humans are evolving into magic.

I got the idea for Atlantis and the shifting abilities from "If Wishes Were Ponies", found here:

They mostly use Atlantis as a joke but that gave me an idea. Hope you like it.

Someone is messing with the dictations of fate. A mysterious shadow has tied the fate of the Elemental Countries with that of Equestria. Now with powers unseen in the world of ninja and a family in the form of a bunch of pastel colored ponies Naruto Uzumaki will become a true harbinger of harmony.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders are off on another mission from the Friendship Map, this time to Cornucopia, the home of Starlight Glimmer's former master.

But when they're faced with a problem they thought had been taken care of ages ago, tensions flare up, old wounds are opened, and the girls find themselves up to their ears in Timberwolves.

Figuratively speaking, of course.

Over the ages, many a wizard has considered the potential for the existence of parallel universes. Often, they've also contemplated what might happen if someone were to cross the line into such a parallel universe- even, how they might do that.

Not one, however, expected that others might come to their world... nor anything that happened after. The first sign they had... was silence in the Owlry.

A rewrite/reimagining of the once popular and now cancelled The Gate, this time with an outline... and a more balanced magic system. And, a different perspective. Should be fun...

Written with the editing assistance of both Gerandakis and Skittlebug.

As always, tags may be updated as the story progresses.

Updates weekly on Tuesdays, or immediately on Patreon... when I have chapters available. Which, in theory, is more often than not.

It was an innocent invention. I wanted to show everypony what it was about magic and science that I loved so much. So I created a device, based off of the portal to the human realm as well as Starlight Glimmer's alteration to Starswirl the Bearded's time-travel spell. It was designed to seek different realms like the human one, each with alternate versions of everypony at alternate times. I'd even had the foresight to create a D.N.A Filter. One strand of fur, and the device would lock onto the alternate lives of that particular individual.

I was so excited. Princess Celestia, Luna, Cadence, Shining Armor and everypony came to see it in action. Rainbow Dash was the first to go. The device worked perfectly. It opened a rift that showed the town of Ponyville, an alternate Rainbow Dash. A pale blue cat with a rainbow collar. She was playing with a feline Fluttershy. Obviously the two were very young, but the device worked nonetheless.

Many ponies had a turn. And the device picked random alternate realities every time. Pinkie Pie as a Squirrel, Rarity the Swan Armorsmith, Bunny Fluttershy fighting a snake, Dragon Applejack for President.

Then Celestia proposed an idea, combining two different furs as a filter for the device. Naturally, I jumped at the chance. Combining Celestia's with my own, the device did nothing for a long moment. Then, it opened up to something that made everypony freeze with disbelief. What we saw put all villains, past and future to shame.

Nopony will forget the horrors that my invention showed.

Book 1 of the Distorted Series

Note: Story will depict similarities to the Star Wars Universe, but this is NOT a crossover.

A long time ago, a whole manor, and everypony inside it, mysteriously disappeared without leaving any trace.

But it reappeared at the edge of the Everfree Forest, and Twilight decided to go investigate followed by her friends, only to not come back. Worried, and not wanting to miss an occasion to get their Cutie Masks, the Cutie Mark Crusaders entered the manor at the start of the night, only for two of them to be foalnapped by ghosts, and for the third to barely escape with the help of an old stallion.

Now armed with the Poltergust, a powerful tool to capture ghosts, Apple Bloom returns in the manor, ready to save everypony, even if she has to fight every ghosts in this manor.

A long night of terror starts for her.

Happens between season 2 and season 3. Also possesses some Dark and Drama

The saga now has a TV Tropes page (spoiler for the whole saga).

Harry Potter, after a beating by Dudley and friends wishes he had somewhere safe to go, and starts crawling home. He ends up in Equestria. The young Cutie Mark Crusaders find him. A year later, a Hogwarts owl unleashes the CMC, Harry, and Equestria upon wizarding Britain! And adorable cute magic-wielding ponies upon the rest of the world.

Inspired by Dogger807’s hilarious story, “Magic School Days,” here on FiMfiction. While there is humour (and tree-sap) in this story, that is not its only focus.

Wow, Sir Chaos Omega made a TV-Tropes page for the story! Thanks!

Published on the FiMfiction website with the kind forbearance of the copyright owners of My Little Pony (Hasbro) and the Harry Potter series (Scholastic Press).

The timeline for “My Little Pony” is messed up. That is, if you look closely, the order of the shows as aired is out of order of their logical sequence. Evidence: in Swarm of the Century (#10) we see the dresses that Rarity makes in Suited for Success (#14) — so unless Rarity time-travelled, #14 should take place before #10! Also, in The Ticket Master (#3), the other five seem to know Twilight and Spike quite well, yet in Boast Busters (#6) they don’t seem to know Twilight at all.

With careful attention to details such as those, you can put the three years of episodes prior to Princess Twilight Sparkle (#65, Season Four) into a two-year stretch of time. If you work hard enough, you can even squeeze them down to one five-season stretch of Summer to Summer.

I used the two-year seven-part timeline mapped out by deviantart’s tobyandmavisforever (do a Google search for “tobyandmavisforever mlp timeline” as the fastest way to find them). Thus, Harry arrives in Equestria shortly after the Crystal Empire two-part episode, and Twilight and Spike have been in Ponyville just under a year even though the Crystal Empire episodes start the third year of My Little Pony.

Twilight Sparkle has always been looking forward to her 21st birthday. It's the day that she's finally recognized as an adult mare, but also the day she's finally able to learn magic on the highest level. What should have been a great day though, turns out to be the most horrific day in her life. She finds a prophesy talking about the next great evil in Equestria, and it's HER! Now she's falling, slowly becoming the very evil she swore to fight against, and not even her closest friends can pick her up in time. In the end, she may even...

Apple Bloom is tired of being the last in her class to not have her Cutie Mark, but her friends Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo aren't going in the right direction to get their Cutie Marks, and she knows it. In order to get her Cutie Mark the right way, Apple Bloom begins to have thoughts of separating from her friends, and getting her Cutie Mark on her own. But her search for her Cutie Mark opens up to a major mystery in Equestria, and Apple Bloom will discover much more than just her special talent...

friends become enemies...

destinies are revealed...

light fades into the darkness...

and through it all, a hero is born...

This is the first main story in the series.

After being banned from coming to the wedding, Twilight leaves Equestria and becomes a member of the Storm King's army. This allows Twilight to become close friends with Tempest as Twilight swiftly rises to the rank of 2nd Commander and is renamed Sparkle Shadow.

Check this blog for reasons why this story is now on hiatus.

The three fillies of our story are so desperate to get their Cutie Marks that they've formed the not-so-secret secret society, the Cutie Mark Crusaders. After having Crusaded around their hometown of Ponyville, they turn their sights to the wonders beyond (even if traveling by themselves gets them in trouble with their sisters).

But outside of their not-so-peaceful peaceful town, they find that not everything is as wonderful as it seems and they very well may be the only ones who can do something about it (along with help from a couple of new friends).

Follow the Cutie Mark Crusaders as they search for their special talents but end up finding more about themselves and each other than they ever imagined, in the exciting Adventures of the Cutie Mark Crusaders - Fillies on a Mission!

This, if you haven't noticed, is a long story. There is still much more to come as well. There are a lot of slice of life stuff at the start, but not all adventure stories start off with loud explosions and huge disasters; the girls have a long journey of discovery ahead of them and not all of it promises to be nice quiet little things. Also, the alternate tag is for the fact that they will get their cutie marks, eventually; and the crossover tag is in case some of the references I plan to do is too much for a 'normal' story.

A huge thanks goes to Gwg who helped collaborate this with me as well as editing and proofreading the chapters
