Princess Celestia never knew what it was like to be feared. Sure, she knew of the anxiety of those meeting her for the first time, but that was a given. That wasn’t true fear. She knew of the fear of defeat shown by past villains she had brought down, but it was never true fear of her or her actions.

This colt, though? This earth pony who just appeared in her castle? He fears her. He fears her above all else, even death itself. Not even Nightmare Moon was feared this way. So why, oh why was this little colt so terrified of her? What had she done? How can she ever hope to alleviate her little pony of his pain, if her very presence causes him to lock up in terror?

Just where did this colt come from?

(So imagine a character from a grimdark story (ideally the victim) ending up in canon Equestria, and you pretty much have the premise behind this story. Do be warned though; this is much darker than my other stories, mostly because of the setting the aforementioned character came from. Seriously, when I thought of a victim of a grimdark story, I really wanted his old home to be as grim and dark as I could make it.)

Twilight Sparkle, 3 years before she would travel to Ponyville, woke up one morning to a blue box floating over her head.

"Congratulations, you have been chosen to be [The Gamer]!"

Bereft of her normal, mundane life, Twilight decides to utilize her new abilities to their fullest. Her entire view of reality had been shifted to that of a game, her body changed to something reminiscent of a video game character, and she can only wonder why.

Unfortunately, something lurks within the shadows trying to take advantage of her newfound power. The world its garden and the universe its kingdom, The Man in Black knows only one thing: Babylon will fall, and everything else with it.

(Crossover between The Gamer Manhwa and My Little Pony. Elements of Cthulhu mythos).

Twilight's abilities stem from her Gamer power which makes her life like an RPG. How will this affect her life? Let's find out!

It has only been a short while since Discord was released from his prison of stone, and reformed in order to use his powers for good. However, what is it that he is required to do now?

Hello my name is Alexander Wilson, I use that last name because I got sent to magic pony land as Deathstroke the Terminator. So I’d like you to join me on my adventures through this magical land of ponies and it’s darker side.

Thanks go to the wonderful and talented Companda for creating a beautiful cover image. The FIMFiction-sized version really does not do it justice. Please take the time to view it on DeviantArt by clicking the source link; you'll be amazed at the level of detail she put into this picture.

[Displaced]
A few thousand years before, I along with my brother ruled the world we had arrived in. The two of us had anything we could ever want wealth, power, and an nation that spanned the entire world. Then it happened the lesser species rose, the griffons, the minotaurs, and most annoying of all the ponies. Soon, they came to us seeking peace and land to call their own, and my brother wished to give it to them, sparking a war between us that lasted for a thousand years, and cost the dragons so much. Eventually, he struck at my home, him and his knights. They had defeated me, and trapped me in stone, but not before I dealt my brother a fatal wound.
Now, thousands of years later, I'm free to do as I please once again, and I have no idea what to do, or if my brother even survived.

Princess Celestia. Ruler of Equestria, goddess of the sun, and...mother of four?! Yes, Princess Celestia is also a loving mother of four adopted children.

It started when a basket is left at the gates one day. In it, were four infant human males. She adopts them, and raises them herself. Will they grow up to be as kind and as responsible as she is? Or will they cause havoc and chaos wherever they go when they grow up?

Rated T for mild violence, a little blood, rude humor, and bad language.

After finding a human lost within the Everfree Forest, and unable to find his owner, Ditzy decides to bring him home as a playmate for Dinky. Shenanigans ensue when Dinky learns that her new friend, Locke, can actually talk! But why can none of the adults seem to be able to hear him? Of course, that little fact won't stop her from having fun with her new friend!

This was written partly on a whim, and partly because Chainlinc3 wanted a side story to Your Human and You. Well, here you go, Chainlinc3, here you go...

Discord never betrayed Equestria for Tirek, aiding in returning the magic to all the drained unicorns. As a result, Celestia deems him ready of a "small" gift: The Archduchy of the Everfree, technically making him the highest noble under the princesses.

Naturally, this shocks everypony, including Discord himself. Now of course his lands will some have some chaotic magic and strange laws in effect, but that doesn't mean he doesn't take the noble thing a little seriously. Why is anypony's guess, but it'll be entertaining to watch.
