The stakes are higher than ever in Sam's latest adventure. Instead of having to recover his personal property, telling Thunder and Lightning to knock it off, or getting revenge on the cookies that spoiled his dinner, Sam must save his... big brother Mark from the clutches of Queen Chrysalis? Talk about a step up the hero ladder.

Why does she want his brother and what does she plan to do with him? Sam has no idea, but that won't stop him from diving headfirst into Equestria, swiping everything that isn't nailed down, and running away screaming at even the mere sight of Princess Twilight and her dreaded tea party.

A.N.: Straight crossover between Pajama Sam and MLP:FiM.

As a quick rundown for anyone not familiar with the series, Pajama Sam is a children's point-and-click adventure game series that was published by Humongous Entertainment from 1996 to 2003. It involved Pajama Sam, the titular character, traveling to fantastical worlds full of interesting characters to achieve goals and learn life lessons. The gameplay gimmick of the series (and the company in general) was that every primary goal had two distinct solutions, only one of which would be selected per play-through. This meant you had to play the game at least twice in order to see everything, and each entry had sixteen different possible paths to choose from, greatly increasing replay value.

Rated 'TEEN!(?)'
Expect swearing. Lots and LOTS of swearing, and also sexual humour.
Set within the Equestria Girls universe. Set before events of Sunset Shimmer's downfall.

They say that Equestria was a paradise. I don’t know if that’s true, but I wanna believe it. There sure ain’t one in this piece of the ‘Verse. Maybe we coulda built one if it weren’t for the damned Confederation. Those bastards wanted every planet in the system under their hoof and wouldn’t take no for an answer. The outer planets fought ’em, and we lost.

It’s tough to get by these days with Confederation lawkeepers looking for an excuse to crack down, bandits and thieves crawling everywhere the Confederation’s not, and the Jesters prowling around the edges of civilized space. Honest work’s hard to come by, and honest folk are twice as rare. Still, a mare has to make a livin’ somehow. So that’s what I do.

Find a crew. Find a job. Keep flying.
– Rainbow Dash, Captain of Tranquility

Ponies hold nearly total sway over the world, from the sky to the earth and even beyond. Many of the races resent this, and scheme to claim a portion of that control for themselves. Some have even come close to toppling the ponies from their position of power.

This is not the story of one of those races.

Submitted for the Equestria Daily "Outside Insight" fanfic contest.

A young Redheart finds herself as a soldier in a war she wanted to go into, facing enemies she wanted to face, together with her friends and comrades. But when all is said and done, she is happy that the rain falls on the trenches.

It has been nearly sixty years since humanity witnessed the devastation of a World War, or any other kind of large-scale conflict. Equestria's abstinence has been even longer, with battles that rage across the entire land not being seen for centuries. Though both have seen their share of small-scale skirmishes, a duel of total annihilation across a large scale has been avoided by both sides time and again.

But peace is never lasting. For both sides, it lies on a cliff, requiring only one good push to send the participants into a plunge of death. Equestria's unexpected appearance may turn into that final push, as alliances, deception, and distrust threaten to launch a conflict that will lead both worlds to utter ruin.
