Aaron Jacobson is a Flight Engineer aboard the MIRV-03, a vessel launched in last-ditch attempt to continue Humanity's legacy after its inevitable doom.

Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash watch from the Library and the sky as a shooting star becomes a burning ball of plasma headed straight for the Everfree Forest.

Will the crew of the starship survive the crash? How will the ponies react to the new species?

Warning: Contains some violence (thus the Teen content rating); and more importantly is my first story (thus the probably trashy quality).

Criticisms are appreciated.

Rainbow Dash is grounded by a storm in Ponyville. She finds sanctuary within the library but Twilight Sparkle soon finds out that the storm isn't Rainbow's only problem. She's suffering from a very personal pegasus problem and Twilight has taken it upon herself to look after her friend during this delicate time.

Returning to Ponyville was hard on Octavia, she needed to talk to her long lost friend. Vinyl. She can't wait, but at the same time she is afraid. Afraid of being hated.

I have always been an antisocial, colorless guy who just liked to stay outta people's way and not stand out. But after encountering a strange light and being brought to the world of Equus in the land of Equestria I may have a bit of a problem. While there I see and do many things I thought could only happen in fantasy. I don't know why I've been brought to Equestria, and I have a feeling Celestia knows more than she's letting on, but I try to make the best of it and think of it as a chance to reinvent myself.

(If you came here expecting action, good. Gore? Has that too. Has some sexual themes but they vary and won't be frequent.
This will be written in 1st person and I will inform you when the POV changes.
If you are confused or lost please comment so I can better write the story for following chapters and gain experience for future stories).

You are Anonymous, you are fit, you are the only human in Equestria, and Rainbow is your best friend and workout buddy. For one reason or another, mares find you desirable, unnervingly so. For the longest time, your best bro, Rainbow Dash, has protected you from their advances. One day however, things you have been noticing for a while begin to start piling up; her blushing, the way her wings tend to stiffen around you...it couldn't be, could it?

When Twilight Sparkle decides to try a new spell she has perfected, she successfully pulls a being from another universe into Equestria. That being coincidentally is a human...that human coincidentally is you. What at first just seems like an opportunity for first contact between two species soon becomes something much more when certain truths are brought to light...and everything you knew about your life is flipped onto its head.

NOTE: At times in this story, the main character's thought process will be shown as an inner monologue with his brain. BRAIN's dialogue will appear in this color of text.

Twilight Sparkle and her friends are going to stop Nightmare Moon. They face her and the Mare of the Night explains to Twilight many things previously unknown to her about her mentor and friends. Why does she keep sending them? Why do her friends follow her around? After the encounter, Twilight's view on the Solar princess and her friends change. For the worse.

Twilight Sparkle has been convinced that kidnapping YOU is the solution to saving Equestria! While this should be a dream come true (going to Ponyville, meeting Twilight Sparkle, etc..) There's just one catch...

You don't want to be a pony... At least not like this!

If you were offered another chance, would you take it? I mean, for anything. Turned down a date because you already had plans? Skipped out on dessert that one time becuase of your diet?

How about if you died, defending all you hold dear.

...except, it wasn't your turn to die?

And if you accepted, would you live with the strings attatched? Would you accept the consequences? Would you pay the toll?

And, should you face again the choice to give it all for a friend in need, would you make the same choice again, or take your second chance, as your friend pays the toll?

This, my friends, is my story of my second chance. This is my time as Fate's Plaything.

Authors note:

I know this is a HiE, but hear me out. This is my own spin on it, and hopefully, I can write something that hasn't been done before. No human-pony clop included. Also, I'm my own editor, so if you see any issues with the grammar, spelling, etc., let me know.

Nearly out of ideas after Vinyl had made quite a few mixes to entertain herself as well as her fans, she goes rummaging through a stash of records she had laying around in a few boxes. she comes across a strange record she had never seen before. This record had etches, not scratches, that seemed to form a shape similar to a star. As the record plays, very eerie, distorted music plays, visions of horrible images pass through her mind, shaking her to her very core. She isn't quite sure what she saw or heard. However, she knows that whatever this record is, its affecting her mentally. Maybe even physically. But everyone's favorite DJ-PON3 might not be the same if she doesn't find help to clear her mind of this record soon.
