This story is a sequel to An Affliction of the Heart: Volume Two

Swarm is the first ever changeling/pony hybrid, child of Warden the pegasus, and Kuno the changeling.

What does life have in store for this unlikely trio?

Twists, for a start!

Young Nictis had one dream: to serve his hive by becoming an Infiltrator, the most vital and vaunted role a changeling could aspire to. To hide in plain sight among the other species, blending in, while gathering the vital emotional energies that fueled his people. Few were deemed worthy of the dangerous job. He was one of the few nymphs selected for training, in the hopes that one of them would develop the skills needed to be entrusted with such a treacherous task.

But when a training expedition ends in tragedy, Nictis finds himself thrust into the role not to serve his hive and people, but to preserve his own life. Separated from the hive, alone, he must put what little training he has to the test. He must blend in with the hive's greatest source of food, and its most dangerous enemy: the ponies of Equestria.

(This story takes place in the same continuity as Fragments, but stands on its own. Reading that story isn't necessary for this one.)

This story is a sequel to An Affliction of the Heart

Kuno and Warden are happily together now, but events are transpiring to force them from their happy life.

The reappearance of the Crystal Empire causes Kuno and Warden to give up their new-found home. And Kuno, ignoring the fact that they're two different species and completely incompatible, decides that she wants a baby.

Kuno, a young changeling, is left weak, bloodied, and bruised after the events of the Canterlot wedding. She is soon discovered by Warden, a Royal Guard. But for some reason, Warden shows her mercy. Instead of taking her into the custody of the Royal Guard, he becomes both her captor and her savior. But over time, Kuno will come to ask herself the hardest question she has ever pondered: Can a changeling feel love?

Brilliant isn't it? Check it out! (slightly NSFW)

Hearth's Warming has always been a time for family and friends. A time when the ponies of Equis remember the frigid days before the rise of Modern Equestria, and bask in the warmth and comfort of their loved ones.

But for one particular holiday season, strange things are happening in Ponyville that can’t be easily explained. Least of all by Scootaloo, who is having her own share of troubles during this normally festive time of year.

When the mirth and whimsy of Hearth’s Warming starts to take on a more dour and icy edge, things take a turn for the stranger when out of the blue, the enigmatic “Doctor Clockwork” appears.

Join the Hourglass Stallion as he takes it upon himself, his temporary companion Spike, and the newly-conscripted Scootaloo to save Hearth’s Warming before the holidays are ruined forever!

Godzilla... A creature of epic proportions... He is a terrifying reminder of mankind's past experimentation with nuclear weaponry. For decades he has been a living natural disaster, an ever present threat to the human race. He cannot be killed, he cannot be contained, and he cannot be stopped. The best that mankind has ever been able to do is merely slow him down.

Until now...

Scientists have developed a satellite-mounted cannon capable of generating a black hole. They call it the Dimension Tide, and they intend to use it on Godzilla. However, the plasma energy used in the initial testing of the Dimension Tide causes a dragonfly to mutate, and eventually spawn a massive insect called Megaguirus. Godzilla is successful in killing Megaguirus, but the humans are also able to land a successful strike with the Dimension Tide. Godzilla is banished to an endless void, never to be seen by anyone ever again.

Or so they think...

In an alternate universe, Nightmare Moon has returned from her one thousand year imprisonment to bathe Equestria in eternal night. However, her grand speech to the populace of Ponyville is interrupted by the roar of a creature far larger than anything Equestria has ever seen... and far more dangerous than it has ever faced...
