This is Ponyville, a small, quaint town full of friendly, happy ponies, and is simply the best place to raise a foal. Or is it? Read to find out!

A short one shot based on a dream I had.

After a visit to Manehatten, Diamond Tiara and her father, Filthy Rich, return home. But when they get off the train, they discover that Ponyville is deserted. And to make matters worse, Filthy Rich goes missing in mere minutes upon arriving home.

What will become of Diamond Tiara as she timidly explores the now abandoned town alone?

... But is she really alone like she thinks she is?

Most folks in town know about Longbow, even if not many really know her. She's somepony parents teach their foals to avoid. Everypony understands that she's dangerous.

Everypony except Twilight, who just moved to town.

(Part 1 of the Unfortunate Souls Series)

Artorias. Second in command to the Four Knights of Lord Gwyn. Having trekked the abyss once, and was told once again to, Sif and himself venture to Oolacile, only to find it's inhabitants turned against their will by Manus. After he and Sif venture into the Chasm of the Abyss, Artorias finds himself surrounded by strange creatures. In a desperate attempt, he tries attacking with sword, but it goes through them, he bashes with his shield, and the Abyssal creature destroys his arm. Able to no longer carry the burden of his shield, he gave it to his wolf companion as the Abyss swallows him and changes him...

Not long after, the Chose Undead finds himself triumphant against Artorias, sending the corrupted Knight fading away....
Although, this is not the end of our Abyss walking friend...
