This story is a sequel to The Apple Doesn't Fall Far

Applejack and I have been with each other for over a year now, and what a good year it had been. We've had rough patches here and there, but we always come out stronger. Honestly, I never thought I would be with anypony, let alone a close friend, but I digress. We just have to take it day by day

What would happen if Spike was born earlier than in the show and was raised by dragons instead of ponies? What if his teacher told him to come with him to meet with Celestia and the recently returned Luna. How will the princesses and Elements of Harmony handle a blunt, sarcastic, and strong young dragon. And how would this affect a certain shy Pegasus who is afraid of dragons.

This is a partial cross over with The Azure striker Gunvolt.

Has a few concepts from the webcomic: THE GAMER
Website where you can find the webcomic The Gamer:

-The original website where the comic can be found is in a different language. I recommend going to either the link for MangaPark or get the app Webtoon.

This story's update frequency is incredibly sporadic, but I promise, no matter what happens, no matter how long it takes, this story will reach completion. (Update 12/28/22: YES, I PROMISE I'M STILL WORKING ON IT!)

The Elegant Diamond. A name that everpony knew. Seductive, cunning and agile. The famous costumed rogue evaded the grasp of the royal guard again and again. Her small, but talent gang allowing them to perform the most impossible of heists, stealing from the most secured vaults in the lands and sharing their riches with the poor.

Now however, the Royal Guard have seized an opportunity to get one of their own into their ranks. And not just any normal guard, but one of the best and brightest of them all. Now, they are tasked with infiltrating the gang and bringing them to justice from within the inside.

But in order to bring them to justice, one must first know what justice is.

Twilight Sparkle, a young gifted Unicorn is given the opportunity of a lifetime, to be the personal student to Princess Celestia. After demonstrating her abilities at her examination, her first day of studies comes to a grinding halt when a predecessor comes back for revenge on her mentor and Princess. After a narrow escape, the young filly, just beginning to learn her powers finds herself in the middle of the everfree forest, alone and vulnerable with no one to help guide her back to the life that was so swiftly pulled out from under her hooves. Her adventure nearly comes to an end when a pack of timber wolves attack her, however she is saved by one of the most unlikely of creatures, a dragon. With no one else to help her, she immediately follows the disgruntled and solitary creature back to his lair, much to his annoyance. However, he comes to find out that the two of them are far more connected than he could have ever guessed...

In this alternate universe, Twilight is a filly and never hatched spike. He grew up as a wild dragon in the Everfree forest, however deep down past the scales and fire, he will come to realize that perhaps he is something more. The first of a series I plan to create where spike is the "Older Brother/Guardian" figure, however, the bond that they share is the same if not stronger than that in the show. I believe this is an original concept, correct me if I'm wrong, but the idea came to me and I have been excited to show this to all of you

This story has been in my mind for over a year now and I am excited to finally be able to publish it, I hope that you all enjoy, as I am proud to present to you "Friends by Fate"

Rated Teen for mild blood and gore, nothing too horrible, just light battle injuries.

Twenty years ago, an egg born to the most powerful of all dragons and his mate was laid. Fearing the hatchling's potential, an evil, power-hungry dragon led a campaign against the dragon king's stronghold. To protect their child, the king and queen sacrificed themselves to take down the villain while entrusting their child to their closest friend: the alicorn Princess of the Sun. Five years later, the egg hatched and the young dragon has since been living a peaceful, happy life among the ponies, especially the one who was responsible for his hatching, completely unaware of his past.

However, the evil dragon has returned and plans to led an army of dragons in the conquest of Equestria. To save the land and his friends, the young hatchling must learn his true destiny and discover the great power he has within.

Contains Sparity as the main pairing, with FlutterDash and FlashLight as secondary pairings.

Spike chose the wrong day to get lost in high school territory. Him and his friends just wanted to take a shortcut to get to the bus quicker so that they wouldn't be late. As they pass the windows of the Canterlot High gym, they hear someone fighting, then peek inside. He and his friends spot a boxer training, so with their interest at its highest summit they watch the mystery person train. Then as, they saw him go to the locker room, they decided to follow him to the next window.

However he is actually a she. A fearsome one at that.

[This is another random idea I had, except this one's going to play out like an anime]

Spike Ashe, he is what should be considered as a normal boy in the middle of his first year of high school. But like most of the stories and comics he reads, things are never how they seem.

Spike has powers, little things like having skin as hard as titanium, having amazing speed, agility and strength, the ability to grow wings and shoot fire from his hands and mouth and being able to sense the essence of life itself if he tries hard enough.

He's had these powers since he was very young and has always known how to use them. But because of his powers he has secluded himself from others. Fearing what might happen if his powers were found, and not for his own skin, but for his family. As such he has a reputation of never speaking and even coming across as cold.

But like all things, his life changed drastically when he witnesses a girl about to be run over by a car.

Spoiled Rich has just been elected head of the Ponyville school board. With this new job, she's moving back to Ponyville full time, creating a situation where the hired help is too busy with the move to adequately serve her daughter, Diamond Tiara.

Enter Spike, number one assistant to a Princess and hero of the Crystal Empire. He can handle a pushy little entitled filly like her, right? Right??

This story is a pseudo-prequel to Crusaders of the Lost Mark. It sheds some light on why Diamond Tiara had a change of heart, which in my opinion, was way too abrupt in the episode. This story takes place around the time of Princess Spike, even though it bears nothing in common with that episode's premise, other than featuring Spike.
