Captain Steve Rodgers was on his way to becoming America's greatest hero. Throughout the course of the second World War, he has been working his way across Europe, the Mediterranean, and Northern Africa, destroying every last Hydra base created by his dark counterpart: Johann Schmitt. More infamously known as The Red Skull.

Until one day, he discovers an adorable explosive package in one of Hydra's labs that will change the course of his life in the war and his life in the future forever.

For the first time in his life, he will have something more precious than his country to fight for...

I appreciate anyone who provides me with editing, proofreading, or grammar tips that might help my story.

UPDATE: I am revamping 12 chapters to clean up the flow of the story and removing a plot element.

"The sea is merciless, respecter of none. It will swallow you whole, its icy grip dragging you beneath its churning waves, damning you and all you care about to a mindless, chaotic despair, and the singular need to survive.

When you scream to the heavens for a miracle, your lungs choking on the icy brine, it is their light that you will see. They are the guardian angels of the lost souls amongst the drift. They are the Coast Guard."

It was certainly a worthwhile ideal, but for Jason and his helicopter crew, living up to it was no easy challenge. With human technology and ponies' magic, their lives are constantly on the line for the sake of others, the weight of their credo, semper paratus, looming over them.

P.S. The story takes place approximately one hundred years after the Earth and Equestria made first contact.

The story inspired by "The Guardian" 2006 movie. I suggest you watch it.

And just for the records, I don't work in the Coast Guard, so if by chance there are some mistakes in the story don't hesitate to let me know.

I dedicate this story to all the Coast Guard members around the world.

Severe thunderstorms are a commonality when living in a mountain fire lookout tower; an event that comes and goes with ease. However, when a storm takes a turn for the worse and causes the resident lookout to fall unconscious, the scene that greets him on awakening is about as unsettling and unwelcome as can be.
Or is it?

With his radios and cellular service cut off, Equestria's first human visitor is left to his own devices to figure out why he and his tower are now in the middle of an mysterious and dangerous forest. Well, at least the clouds still move on their own, that's a good thing, right?

Look out Equestria, there's a new human in town!

*Takes place during/after Season 9

Having a long mane and tail can be quite tricky for a pegasus to deal with, but her human companion is eager to help. There’s no way she’d refuse such a kind offer… right?

Being the little spoon doesn't hurt your wings?

By some cosmic happenstance, a young woman is transported to Equestria, and finds herself in a precarious situation. She's taking it in stride so far. Maybe because finding herself in an alien world and in an alien body is not the worst thing that's ever happened to her.

Some wounds, especially those of the soul, can take a long time to mend. What healing arts can the ponies of Equestria offer a scarred young woman? What can she offer them in return?

Timeline-wise takes place starts off in the later parts of season 4 but before the season finale. It also mentions events from the EG-movies and the comics, but neither of which are required watching/reading in order to understand this story.

Trigger-warnings:
- Human-turned-into-pony-
- Who's kind of okay with being a pony-
- And becomes friends with the Mane 6.
- Being a pony is pretty awesome.
- Has both slice of life and adventure.
- Equestria Girls happened.
- Like the source material, it has adventures.
- And Celestia is not a jerk.

A retelling of the ending of "Bats!". Twilight's spell was able to help Fluttershy get her mind back...but unfortunately, she's stuck as a batpony for the rest of her life! Naturally, Fluttershy is distraught, but luckily, her lifelong friend Rainbow Dash is there to help her get use to the change...while also unable to get over how hot she thinks Fluttershy looks now!

Based on the Equestria at War universe.

In the year 1011 ALB, Queen Chrysalis declared war on Equestria. She and her High Command believed that the Equestrians would be easily crushed underneath the treads of their tanks and pushed back by their powerful changeling rifles. However, they were quickly proven wrong as their forces met the heavily fortified positions of the Equestrian military. After months of a painful stalemate, the High Command had a brilliant idea. They began deploying infiltrators into the Equestrian fortifications to weaken and surprise the defenders for the oncoming attackers.

One particular changeling was deployed to an Equestrian fortification, weeks in advance. On the promised day, he sits in a trench, waiting for the arrival of his brothers and sisters. But, will they come? And what happens to the mare that he became friends with if they do come?

Now with reading by Fire Hearth Studios!

Special thanks to Witchery for editing!

The banishing of Nightmare Moon has brought much suffering to thestrals throughout Equestria. They are seen as servants to a wicked manifestation of the night, and are treated accordingly. Many officials, including the mayor of Manehattan, use every opportunity to gain from this abuse.

Yet the spirit of the bat-winged ponies is not so easily broken. Count Shadow Wing leads a band of Thestrals to demand their rights be returned... or else.
