When Twilight Sparkle slipped beneath the covers last night, everything had been fine. She had friends whom she loved, a teacher she adored, and a bright future ahead of her. But when she woke up, her blankets and quilts had been replaced by hospital gowns and padded restraints.

Everything is wrong and nothing makes sense; even her friends have changed. The doctors keep telling her that she is sick, that none of it was real and that it was all in her head. Yet she remembers a life far beyond the hospital walls. She couldn't have made it all up on her own. They must be lying… right?

“I'm afraid I know exactly who I'm messing with, Flim Skim. And I know exactly why. And I know you don't know the same about me. Therefore, I am at the advantage... aside from the obvious hostage, of course.”

A mysterious horse appears in the dead of night, and brings a catastrophe on the Flim Flam Brothers that neither of them could have ever been prepared for: he kidnaps Flam, and leaves Flim with only a set of strange instructions in order to get his brother back. He must search all over Equestria to find certain things written on a scroll, and he must find the most reliable pony he knows to lead him to the Mordant Phooka.

Unfortunately, when he finds her, she doesn't know if she's willing to help him out. Just how is she supposed to trust him after all he's done? How does she know it's not another scam, or some way to get back at her for messing up the twins' schemes before?

When the only other pony in Equestria who Flim trusts most besides his brother is Applejack, how is she supposed to trust him back?

Edit: The amazingly talented C-Puff has generously and amazingly drawn an amazing cover picture for my story (did I mention it and the artist are both amazing?) Please give the amazing C-Puff a huge round of brohoofs! (and also tell them they're amazing. And go see C-Puff on deviantart!)

There's been another sighting of the mysterious Mare Do Well...but this time, all of Rainbow Dash's friends plead ignorance, insisting that they've put aside their costumes for good. Rainbow Dash is determined to uncover the masked mare's true identity before she's humiliated yet again, but this time around, the vigilante seems especially interested in her as well. Will Rainbow Dash be able to solve the mystery before the culprit takes the hoax too far? Or is she in danger of losing not only her mind, but her heart?

When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

"My life has run its course; I've planted my hooves firmly on the ground and ridden the ups and downs to my greatest potential. I've loved, I've hated, I've cried, I've laughed... but most importantly, I've overcome."

A simple life, floating on the wind.

Brace down and buckle up as you are taken along on the wicked rollercoaster ride that is Vinyl's life. Stand beside her as she first learns of her talents as a musician. Hold her hoof as she braves whatever life throws at her while buskering on the streets of Manehatten. Cry with her as she faces old fears and overcomes new ones. Cheer and revel in her marriage and success. Laugh wholeheartedly at her comedic small mistakes and happenstances.

Most importantly however, understand the rocky and twisted road that shaped the DJ we have all come to know and love.

One thousand years ago Alicorns were as numerous as all pony species but all that changed when a prophesied prince was denied the one he loved and started his dark crusade of passion.

(Their theme, while in action, is this)

Celestia summons Twilight for a simple magic test, and Twilight's friends decided to follow to cheer her up from her nervousness. The test's entry was perfect, and a lovely tea break with the princesses to relax a bit and talk was going perfectly...until a strange biped wearing a science outfit appears in the throne room. They were finally in Equestria, but who exactly are they? What are these awful creatures that they are using to kidnap "test subjects" for their experiments, and what is this creature that seems to be a mixture of Nightmare Moon and...something else? When the only safehaven for the inhabitants of Equestria becomes the Island of Secantor, a place where technology is legion and magic is both frowned upon and punished, and, worst of all, is actually an enemy of Equestria, things begin to tense up. And who is this "Doctor" who seems to be the lead scientist in this horror scenario? Does he lead or is he lead? What is he? He and the others seem extremely different from the chained bipeds, but in what manner? Aren't they the same creatures...or are they?

Two worlds are now connected. Two of bizarreties. What are these other bipeds that are thrown into Equestria as well as time goes on? What is there to expect with these chained up creatures?

"Where technology holds a candle, magic shan't prevail."

Layda Hitcher is a twenty-two year old woman that has had quite a calm and quiet life. She had great parents, did well in school, heck, she even had relationships, but this all started to bore her. You can't be an Average Joe forever, right? As she sleeps in her parents' house as a temporary solution until she can finally go to her small little cottage-like house, she is awoken to see herself in an artist's rendition of autumn. Beautiful giant trees with magnificent colored leaves flowing everywhere, and verdoyant grass shining with the lively sun in the sky, occasionally being blocked by the silvery clouds. What will happen when a creature proposes a small adventure for her, with the only cost of taking said creature's form in this "other world"?

OC characters included.

Pinkie Pie is being tormented by horrific nightmares. Unable to deal with it by herself anymore she seeks out Twilight's help, but will it have been the best decision when she finds herself alone in an abandoned, fog filled Ponyville?

There have been a LOT of high-quality readings of Silent Ponyville, but this one is my personal favorite:

This story is a sequel to Rainbow Factory

Cloudsdale Weather Corporation has been running without incident for over twenty years. That is, until two foals manage to avoid being processed and find themselves in the haunted bowels of the massive facility. Can they make it out of the abandoned factory with their sanity intact? Will they uncover the secrets even a company as dark as the CWC is ashamed to keep? And what of the workers who help ensure that, in the end, not a single soul gets through...
