Thrust into the world of her favorite book-series, Rainbow Dash finds herself dragged along for the ride of Daring Do's latest adventure. Mind-boggling as it may be, things are about to get far more complicated. For Rainbow Dash, breaking the fourth wall may very well prove to be a learning experience.

This story was conceived long before the episodes "Daring Don't" and "Power Ponies".
For the sake of this story, Daring Do remains a fictional character, the author remains anonymous, and there is no such thing as a store selling "enchanted" comic-books.

This story is available as an audio-book (text-to-speech synthesized), see individual chapters for links.

Story excerpt:

It still bothered her how she had gotten here, how it was even possible that she was walking side-by-side through some buried underground-structure, with her favourite fictional character become flesh. But as they resumed trotting deeper into the temple, Dash's thoughts kept going back to the event.

"No", Dash told herself, sternly. "That's - that's not it."

She almost would have compared the experience to "Pinkie Sense" of all things!

But she had seen something out of the corner of her eye. It had been... letters. Words. A sentence.

Something along the lines of "... the characteristic noise of a ... spikes closing in right behind ... Rainbow Dash slammed her body into ... ".

And then she had acted, before the trap was even visible. She had known what was going to happen, before it happened.

She ... she had read the next paragraph.

Seriously, a lot.

(Now with a Spanish translation by the generous SPANIARD KIWI!)

The newly coronated Princess Twilight suffers an abrupt tragedy. Having lost two loved ones, she begins to question her own mortality, and that of her friends.

AJ, Dash, Rarity, Pinkie, Fluttershy. . . they are just the beginning. Twilight will live for thousands of years, so every pony she cares about—every pony she will ever care about, will die.

She could barely handle the pain of one funeral, let alone the thought of hundreds of them. Twilight finds a clever way to ensure all of her friends never die. They can’t all be ageless alicorns, but they can all move into Twilight’s Dollhouse. Then they can be best friends forever.

Now on TV Tropes.

Nopony seriously believes in the sea-ponies. They're myth and legend, just stories and fairy tales to entertain foals.
Except Applejack. Applejack believes.

She believes she saw a sea-pony when she was a filly. She told everypony and they made fun of her. Over time even she began to wonder if it was just a foal's daydream.
Then one day Applebloom comes home wearing a strange necklace she found by the river, a small white scallop shell.

It convinces Applejack that sea-ponies are real and she sets out on a personal quest to find the sea-ponies.

Collection of short stories all in a chain going from picture to story to picture from MLPG over the course of around a month or so.

Each participant only ever saw the last entry to base their story/picture on, so have no knowledge on the context of what they received. This was the result.

Rarity finds out that she is in fact a Changeling,and more then that, a member of a Changeling Royal Family,who was sent away for her own safety and so that she should not get spoilt.

Ever since she was a little filly, Pinkie Pie has wished for a human for her to care for, to be best friends with, and to have fun with. Hearth's Warming Eve is coming, and after the tragic events of Pinkie's sisters passing away due to a disease, Twilight attempts the impossible. And for once, it actually works. But is easily regretted thereafter.

(You guys I'm sorry I had to do this)
This is just a simple short story that I got the idea for when I was in class, and imagined an image of Pinkie Pie hugging a human (Yes, it was me). And thus, this happened. I have absolutely no idea whatsoever how this will turn out. I'm writing this to clear my writer's block, and to get me back on track with my updates and stuff.

It's Nightmare Night and Discord's first since he was reformed. He's been looking forward to it for months and even put together a neat costume to go with it. Until Celestia sends him a message saying he's not allowed to go.

Down in Ponyville, the ponies are preparing for a night that will never be forgotten- but nothing could have prepared them for this.
Spike's an alicorn, Twilight's a dragon, Rainbow Dash is her favourite daring adventurer, Rarity's a vampire, Pinkie Pie and Applejack are changelings, Fluttershy's dead and Sombra and Chrysalis have returned. And I'm not referring to costumes!

What is going on here?!

Twilight Sparkle has always admired Princess Celestia. Her fortitude, her wisdom, her eternal grace and love for all her subjects. Twilight has often fantasized about what it would be like to be in Princess Celestia's horseshoes. She never imagined those fantasies would come true.
