One thousand years ago, Nightmare Moon triumphed over Celestia and plunged Equestria into an era of darkness.

On the outskirts of the great city of Cloudsdale, Rainbow Dash struggles to provide for herself and her only friend, Fluttershy. Her mundane if uncomfortable existence, however, is thrown into chaos when she finds herself arrested for theft and treason.

When Nightmare Moon sends her personal student, Twilight Sparkle, to aid the investigation, things rapidly spiral out of control as events that will change the fate of Equestria unfurl.

Silver Spoon questions why she participates in the psychological destruction of the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

Ditto, a changeling from the attack on Canterlot, is flung far from her home and lands in Ponyville. She crashes into Twilight's library, and finds it a nice place to stay, quiet, abandoned, and peaceful. Until, of course,Twilight returns from Canterlot and finds her.

How will Ditto survive? She is lost, hungry, and far from her swarm.

Will the ponies find it in their hearts to help this poor, injured creature?

Note: This story is no longer under revision, but there will still be a few spellchecks and such :)

Imagine being in paradise, but be completely blind to it.
This is what Travis McLuck has to deal with. Arriving in a world of pure beauty, and no way to actually see it.
Being blind can be one of the worst things to happen to a person... but in some cases, it makes life more enjoyable.

Twilight and the other Elements of Harmony have saved the land of Equestria from Nightmare Moon, Discord, and the Changeling army, but now they face perhaps their biggest challenge yet. A challenge that lurks behind smiling faces and friendly eyes. A challenge that threatens to overtake the entirety of Equestria and enslave its inhabitants. But the ponies won’t face this threat alone. Help comes in the form of the most unlikely of companions: four teenagers, a hawk, and a blue centaur.

Twilight Sparkle isn�t dead.

But she's not exactly alive either, and there�s only one pony who can see her, can hear her, can prove that Twilight still exists. Unfortunately for Twilight, or perhaps fortunately, that pony is a certain pink baker and party planner.

The Great and Powerful Trixie has always had one goal: To be recognised as the great and powerful magician that she is. Especially by one particular Unicorn.

But one day, Trixie loses all of her memories, and is found injured by Fluttershy. Twilight decides to help Trixie on her road to recovery, and thus Trixie's new life in Ponyville begins.

There is a lot to teach Trixie, but with the friendship of Twilight and the rest of Ponyville, the road to recovery should be a happy one...At least, that's the hope.

The Elements of Harmony are missing, and Raindrop needs them to quell the rising curse of her ancestry that threatens to consume her. Paired with a Royal Guard, and with a strong mutual loathing, Together, they will have to try to reunite the elements and find their new bearers...If they don't kill eachother first.

When Rarity is given an order for a dress, a series of unfortunate circumstances lead her to request the aid of Twilight Sparkle. When she discovers that Twilight has been studying time spells, she asks if she can help her recover some of her time. Reluctantly, Twilight agrees, but when she is performing her spell, something breaks her concentration causing the spell to become unstable, sending them 15 years into the future. What awaits them in a world where they have been missing for so long? Will they ever get back to their own time? Only time will tell.

Seriously, check out his work. He is one of my favorite pony artists.

Megan Richards is a normal, everyday wife and published author of 'My Little Horsey'... however the tales she writes about aren't fiction, but stories from her past. She thought she put the world of ponies behind her, but sometimes the past has a habit of catching up with you...

G1 meets G4 in a hopefully epic tale of the past, the present and the future.

I own nothing, also, minor cameos from other Hasbro properties such as Jem and the Holograms, Transformers G1 and GI Joe.
