My name is Dr. John Trotson, and this is an account of the mysteries and tales that surrounded the deeds of my most faithful friend Sherclop Pones - one of Equestria's most brilliant minds. I do not doubt for an instant that my writings are anything but amateurish - but in any case, please feel free to peruse the book, and dabble in the selection of the fantastic tales that surrounded our lives in the first year of our acquaintance.

This story is a sequel to Rise of the Phoenix Empress

It has been nearly nine hundred years since Sunbeam Sparkle claimed the throne of Equestria after Celestia’s abdication. In that time, she has forged Equestria into a powerful centralized empire that spans most of the known world. Even the distant griffons and zebras pay reluctant homage to the Phoenix Empress.

In this series of connected one-shots, we’ll be taking a look at life the new Equestria Sunbeam Sparkle has forged, through the eyes of its inhabitants.

Study Buddies: Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle are the Empress’ co-students. They also rather dislike each other, mostly due to Sunset’s less than friendly attitude. Can they find a way to work together to fulfill the Empress’ high expectations, or will they just end up trying to kill each other?

This story is a sequel to A Moment in the Sun

Sunset Shimmer is on the run. It's been six months since she left her life as Princess Celestia's student behind, but she can't escape her own past. Her parents are offering a reward for her safe return home, and Celestia's agents are watching her every step. She might have gotten out of Canterlot, but the runaway student is still a long way from freedom. Especially since her education with the Princess of Equestria didn’t cover things like how to make a living wage with her magical skills.

However, there might still be one place where she can escape all of them. The infamous island nation of Freeport has long had a reputation as a haven for pirates, criminals, and exiles, but there's no better place in the world for somepony who wants to disappear. The only question is whether Sunset will live long enough to pull it off.

Octavia and Vinyl have been dating for months, but neither has had a chance to introduce their significant other to their families. Vinyl always dodges the issue, but when Octavia is insistent, they have a fight. This leaves Vinyl with no other option than to have Octavia over to meet her parents.

Maybe she should have told Octavia who she really was?

Shortly after the failed Canterlot invasion, a changeling doctor by the name of Green Bottle saves the life of a zebra mare. Sadly, this mare has a serious problem, in the form of an evil shaman intent upon making her his bride... whether she wants to be or not. Within a short period of time, Green ends up being drawn into a war between the zebras and the wicked minions of the shaman...

But in a battle between a medical doctor and a 'witch doctor', who will truly have the upper hoof?

Part of the Nonsense-verse.

This story is a sequel to Happy Adventuring, Twilight!

Two months after bringing the changelings to Canterlot, Princess Luna calls Pennington Inkwell and his assistant back to Equestria. A new threat has come to Equestria: a deranged dragon with the ability to control the weather. Taking the opportunity to atone for his past actions, Penn and Moonstone leap into action, setting out to find the attacker and stop them. Little do they know that they'll be delving into secrets far more dangerous than wandering unprotected through dragon country.

Meanwhile, Twilight Sparkle and Calalily Curl meet a strange pony who seems to know more than he ought to about Pennington's past. On his word, the three set out to save Pennington from an unknown traitor waiting to spring a trap on him. But is Delta Raider to be trusted?

A Sequel to "Happy Adventuring, Twilight!" and Part 2 of the Happy Adventuring Saga.

For the longest time, Fluttershy has been told to speak up more. But she always reverts back to her usual quiet self. Then one day, after an encounter with Equestria's biggest rockstar, Fluttershy finds herself on a stage in front of an audience of ponies who expect to hear her sing. Will she find the courage to let out her inner vocalist?

(Don't forget to comment)

My name is [NAME CLASSIFIED]. I belong to a powerful organization that effectively controls Equestria and to a further extent, the entire globe, albeit unofficially. My life has always been a constant learning experience. I accomplished many things, and now I live happily with a stallion I married and had children with.

Then I was approached by a journalist, a conspiracy theorist of sorts. He had heard rumors of my past and requested an interview with me. What does he want, I wonder? Only one way to finds out.

EDIT: This was originally the first story in a now cancelled series, so some details end up not leading anywhere. Just a disclaimer, I apologies for any confusion.

A unicorn by the name of Keen Eye has traveled far and wide to find a place to start his life. He decides to settle in Ponyville and open his very own magic shop to teach magic and sell magical items and books. Sure, a few things are alittle off about him. He wears black tinted goggles all the time, has a hard time understanding colors, and doesn't let anyone touch his personal collection of books, for ANY reason. But with such a gentle colt, he must have his reasons, right? No harm in keeping a few secrets. At least until those secrets and history comes back to find him.

Life is full of surprises. That is a known fact. However, you always expect some kind of minor surprise, like your train arriving a little too late, or your ice-cream having vanilla taste rather than strawberry. But sometimes, life will give you surprises you could never predict. For Fluttershy, it was three little foals. But not her own foals, or even orphans. Three little foals that used to be her and her friends' most fearsome and dreaded foes.

Sombra, Chrysalis and Nightmare Moon.

Will Fluttershy's nerves survive this onslaught of misadventures? Will she keep the three villains hidden? Will she even become friends with them? Why do I sound like a narrator to a bad criminal drama? Don't think or try to answer those questions, just go ahead and read!
