When what starts as an attempt on Princess Luna's life becomes a mad grab for power, Celestia must call upon her most skilled weapon, the Paladin. Cheerilee is an ordinary school teacher with a very unorthodox side job. Will her training in the ways of justice, and honor be enough to stop the threat against Equestria? Along her journey she will make new allies, gain new strengths, and become more personally involved then she ever would have imagined.

Note: As for the tags it is only slightly dark and only slightly sad, and not grim-dark at all (more light-dark sometimes). It is Adventure first.

Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy thought they were going to help banish Discord for a third time with their friends and the two princesses. That was precisely what was happening until they both found themselves suddenly transported to a strange new world under a flashing pink sky.

A man named Doug "TheSlorg" Collins finds two young women who are naked, confused, and smell of fudge in the Australian Outback. He then reluctantly agrees to help them return home. But when "home" turns out to be Ponyville, things become a bit more complicated than he bargained for.

After being rudely awoken from Cryo-sleep, John-117 finds that the Forward Unto Dawn has been sucked into a gravity well, causing it to fall towards an unknown planet. In the crash, he is separated from Cortana and falls alone into the Everfree forest. In addition to this new complication, old memories from a scarred and tragic past haunt his dreams, putting his remaining sanity on edge.

However, he has little time to ponder these thoughts, as he encounters the planet's... peculiar... inhabitants.
