It's been a long few years for everyone in the United States. We got destroyed in war, and we are on the brink of disaster. Bombings occur daily, murders and robberies occur hourly. It's horrible, and there is absolutely no way out of it, it seems.

The government brought all eight of us to investigate some strange signals in outer space...I can't remember why, exactly, but I know that it wouldn't have helped us anyways. The eight of us were supposed to come home safe and sound. They practically guaranteed, and I should have known better. Some wormhole brought us to this magical land, and now I'm some sort of horse with wings, while the other seven are dealing with very similar issues.

A zoologist, rumored to have navigated the harshest terrains without any sort of trouble, as well as harboring keen knowledge of common wildlife and fauna.

A sociopathic scientist, who has been waiting for a moment like this his entire life.

A national hero, who was considered a leader after a stunt at Mt. Rushmore where she saved the lives of hundreds after a potential terrorist attack.

A weightlifter, who holds many records and has placed in many Iron Man competitions.

A strange competitive card player with the IQ of 173.

A traveler, who can speak very many languages, and still has the ability to learn more, and reigns supreme at understanding cultures.

Me, a pyro technician, if you'd like to call it that.

As well as some sort of schizophrenic mechanic, who is known to have made a complete army tank from absolute scratch in a matter of days.

This is about survival. The government in this strange world's searching for us. But we can't allow that. We must run, we must hide, and we must learn how to survive in a land of which none of us have ever dreamed us. This is the story of simply blending in, and getting home. Of dealing with the inner demons and braving the unknown.

This, is the story of eight.

As well as Skepto and Dekshuduph for editing and putting up with my endless nagging.

When Fluttershy finds a human in her backyard trying to eat one of her chickens, she and a majority of the residents of Ponyville only want this dangerous creature as far away from their town as possible.

After a less than stellar first impression, Derpy Hooves and the human struggle to quell the rumors surrounding his diet, and convince the townsfolk that he's harmless.

Will the human be able to make himself meek enough to coexist? Or will he be driven out of town with torches and pitchforks?

Each chapter is told from the perspective of a different pony.

When a rare magical artifact is stolen from Celestia's Academy for Gifted Spellcasters, her prized student Twilight Sparkle is determined to take up the task of getting it back... even though Celestia doesn't seem to want her to.

Part I of the Legend of the Six series. This story features humanized characters in a fantasy universe that draws heavily on the mythos of FiM to create a whole new adventure. I hope everyone has as much fun reading it as I did writing it, ^^

Good intentions always seem to go awry. In the search for the more destructive of our race, the few of us who live peacefully in Equestria's borders must bear the heaviest burden. Cast from the town I once loved, and my family destroyed, I seek my revenge on those who took them from me. By the power of my blood, sweat and tears, and with plenty of luck, I plan on watching Canterlot burn.

I am Amethyst and I am a changeling.

You know what they say once you hit rock bottom...

Darth Vader is one of the most despicable forces in the galaxy. Once a powerful and respected Jedi Knight, he betrayed the Galactic Republic and Jedi Order for the dark side of the Force. The newly christened Sith Lord was apprenticed to Darth Sidious and quickly became a master of the dark side. Vader was soon the scourge of the Jedi, continuing the Great Jedi Purge by slaughtering all remaining Jedi.

An extension of Emperor Palpatine's will, the Dark Lord was constantly on the move, traveling throughout the galaxy to defeat rebel uprisings and kill any surviving Jedi. This mission brings him to the edge of the Outer Rim into the Unknown Region of the galaxy, in an unknown star system. High above an unnamed planet he duels with one of the last remaining Jedi in the galaxy in a starship battle. But during the battle his ship is damaged, and he crash-lands on the mysterious planet.

With his connections to the Galactic Empire severed, Vader must find a way out the land known as Equestria, inhabited by the strange creatures known as ponies. That, or he could take it over.

“But there is something you should know, Queen of the Changelings. You haven’t hurt me or my people half as much as you’ve hurt your own.”

"So the question you must ask yourself now," The princess concluded, "Is what you intend to do about it?"

Clop. Erotic fiction that is read by many adult ponies all over Equestria. They entertain, excite, and ease tensions...in more ways then one. So when the Cutie Mark Crusaders hear that they could potentially get an audience if they wrote some too, they try there hands at it. And why shouldn't they? They have the drive, the imagination, and the paper and pencil for it...

...But do they have the concept?

Follow the misadventures of Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo as they try to write clop that will be taken seriously and give them their cutie marks. Will they succeed? Probably not, but it's cute that they're trying.

Don't let the title of the chapters mislead you. These kids don't know what they're writing about.

Who would have thought a pony and a changeling could have children together. I certainly wouldn't have. This is Shining Armor, and I'm in a weird situation. Chrysalis has shown up to my home and dropped a kid off stating that it was our son.

What will Cadance think? How am I going to raise a changeling child? Why does Chrysalis keep coming into my life, and why am I finding it harder to keep her away? Hopefully answers can be found with as little problems as possible. Oh who the Tartarus am I kidding, my seed is a changeling! There's bound to be a problem along the way.

Prince Blueblood's ascension to alicornhood had a rocky start, but he seems to have smoothed things out. Certainly, Celestia has been happier since Twilight Sparkle joined the royalty of Equestria.

However, due to misfortune and malady, Blueblood is flung across the cosmos to a strange land filled with bipedal creatures of unknown intent. He flees in fear, hoping against hope that help is on the way, but certain inhabitants of the new world are not so easily avoided. Only one mare can save him now, and she's nopony to be messed with.

Changelings, alicorns, and bronies collide as Blueblood tries to return home.

We're all doomed.
