Everypony is a hunter, everypony is hunted... using spoons. An elimination competition in Ponyville to find the Blammo! champion of Equestria!

Who will reign supreme in this classic alteration of "water wars"? Which pony will rise above all with spoon high in hoof? Who can be trusted in this backstabbing game? BLAMMO!

An ancient evil, older than even Discord, returns to wreak its horrible vengeance. Now, the existence of ponykind is threatened, and there is only one who can stop the dark forces closing in. Divided into three grand parts, this fan fiction will expand the horizons of the MLP:FiM universe, going as far back as the very beginning.

Part 1: Equestrian Secrets- The discovery of a strange new pony sets Twilight and friends on a journey to learn the truth. Meanwhile, Celestia and Luna have their own concerns to tend to, as a haunting figure from the past seems to be on the approach.

On the outskirts of Cloudsdale lies a training center for fillies and colts to learn to fly. For Scootaloo, this will be a chance to show her stuff, and maybe even find her Cutie Mark. But how will this filly handle the stress of learning to fly, as well as being away from her friends?

On hiatus until I get notice of falseness of word of Faust. (Scootaloo can't fly, kinda makes my entire story pointless, lol)

A sequel to 'Hiatus' - Spurred on by her sister, Luna decides to open a summer camp dedicated to the arts and sciences in an attempt to become further involved with the daily lives of Equestria's citizens, hopefully improving her reputation in the process. The campers that sign up prove to be more than what the Princess of the Night was expecting, however. 'Camp Counselor' certainly wasn't supposed to be part of the royal duties.

Featured on Equestria Daily! Thanks to everyone who has read, reviewed, and commented!

Description: Two years after the camps opened up, the Western Territories of the USA are nearly vacant. It is once more a frontier, ripe for exploration and settlement. On bequest of Princess Celestia, Twilight Sparkle is to experience the human world by joining a family of Pony Settlers on their journey out West. It's Dangerous to go alone however, so in an act of good will, the US government is sending someone to make sure no harm befalls the ponies.

Two thousand years ago, the terra ponies and the alicorns waged war over who would control the world. In the end Discord settled it by attacking both sides. Both were all but wiped out. Or so it was thought.
The Cutie Mark Crusaders have gone missing and it's up to their sisters and their friends to find them. But they might not be looking for three fillies anymore... And why is Trixie calling herself "new and improved"?

When Gilda is thrust into a dark, violent world, she must ally with unlikely characters, learn the importance of teamwork and compassion, and fight the unspeakable horrors of the darkspawn if she ever hopes to survive, for in this world life is not given freely, but is wrested from the wicked.

Spike, Snips and Snails are hanging out with the CMC's on the farm. As Spike leaves to go home he takes a shortcut through the back 40 of Sweet Apple Acres he finds Scootaloo alone in the CMC tree house feeling miserable. The story focuses on a tale of two different types of orphan and how they find solace in each other.

That's right it's Scoots x Spike. If people complain that it's not their version of fanon or canon, then let's say it takes place on Equestria-789 in the multiverse.

The fics's pic will definitely change as make my own picture for the story.

Oh and special thanks goes to my good friend WinterTwister for helping me write this fic.

There's more than one way to lead, and more than one way to be an Element of Magic. An AU looking at the effects of a slightly different early life for two unicorns.

So yes. This resulted from wondering what Trixie would be like as an Element of Magic. Given the choice, I decided to make her and Twilight childhood friends because of the potential for their entire life to be a gigantic Bokke and Tsukkomi routine (a comedian/straight man routine).

I also think that Trixie would do well as a combat mage. After all, she's genuinely powerful (if not so powerful as Twilight) and more importantly she's very good at misleading and bedazzling others. In fact, this entire thing began with my writing the fight scene with Nightmare Moon.

Finally, the Discording she had is based in part off what happened to her in the Pony POV series.

Hope this at least gave you the odd laugh.
