A bat pony shows Twilight a hidden world - she only needs to listen.

This story was written in just over an hour, and took first place in a Quills and Sofas speedwriting competition.

After accidentally learning that each Princess has their very own secret rooms to retreat inside whenever they wish, Twilight Sparkle makes it her mission to uncover just what could be inside Princess Celestia's.

Perhaps Twilight should have knocked first.

After a harrowing and dangerous quest, Twilight Sparkle and her friends have recovered Excelsior's Ecstatic Codex from an evil zebra cult intent on ending the world. The Codex, one of the greatest works of dark magic ever forged, carries within its pages a limitless collection of vile, twisted spells, all specially devised for anypony who opens the cover.

What do you do with a book of dark magic? If you're Twilight Sparkle, you put it in your library. Because that's where books go.

After all, books are for everypony.

When Rainbow Dash got Lightning Dust kicked out of the Wonderbolts Academy, she never thought of what Lightning might do afterwards.

Rainbow Dash had crushed the dreams of somepony who couldn't care less about others getting hurt and shrugged off nearly killing five ponies. Didn't she ever think that there may be consequences?

After breaking her wing and being grounded for a couple days, Rainbow Dash gradually finds she's a lot smaller than she realized.

An innocent game of hide-n-seek proves to the ponies that something more frightening is at play at Sugarcube Corner...

And that involves being trapped in a closet by supernatural forces. Will they get out alive, or will they have to resign their fate to the ghostie who's doing all those nasty things to them?

Alternate ending to the episode 28 Pranks Later. When Rainbow Dash realizes that she had just killed and zombified everypony she ever loved, there is only one way to redeem herself...

Rainbow Dash flies east.

Twilight Sparkle comes across a small, battered diary detailing a new form of transportation. While the research is sloppy and the notes incomplete, Twilight takes it upon herself to see that the ancient project is completed.

Of course, nopony said it would be easy.
