I never wanted any of this to happen. It's not easy being two people at the same time, especially since one of them isn't a person.

So there I am, on the 19th of February of the year 2014. Normal day for me. I had just finished my first Fan-Fiction: Two and a half years... the day before. Great story on my part, but the dialogue was a little weird and quick. I was going to put up its sequel on that day, but something happened.

I know I told you that I had troubles with the first chapter, accidentally deleting most of it. That was the honest truth. But even though I told you guys the truth...

I may not have told you... all of it.

Yes, that is a quote from The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Great movie. I never read the book.

What apparently really happened, was when I went to bed that night, I had a dream. I know that a dream is something that most people have almost every night, but I don't have many dreams anymore.

The funny thing about dreams is that they are hard to remember. All I remember from it is the very realistic pain.

But the dream wasn't the strangest part. When I woke up the next day, I wasn't in my bed. I was on the streets of a huge city. It was strangely familiar too.

I made a vital mistake right after I woke up. I took a look at myself. I was shocked beyond belief when I realized what I had become.

I was a pony. Not a special pony, or an important pony from the show. Just a simple, kid pony.

Oh, I was a gray unicorn too. The face I had was very familiar too.

How did this happen? I honestly don't know. But this is how my life took an unexpected turn, and I had to live it.

My name's John. I guess my last name doesn't really matter any more. Life is ironic, isn't it? Life nurtures all kinds of species that can get along, but it also creates the species that kills others. In fact, there are some species, who's sole purpose is the death of everything but itself. I'm talking about diseases, of course. Viruses, bacteria, fungi, and even parasites. All my life, I found these things interesting. I loved studying them, so naturally I grew up to be an epidemiologist. When I wasn't studying diseases or doing other basic functions, I was playing one of my favorite games, Plague Inc. It's a game where you try to wipe out humanity using diseases. Over the years, I've become a master of the game, to the point where it isn't really a challenge anymore.

But, that all changed when the game sucked me into itself, and I wind up in a strange land, with even stranger creatures. But that isn't all. I've somehow gained the ability to create and control every single disease I can think of. Now, I have to survive in this harsh world, knowing that I'm one step away from wiping out the entire planet.

Like I said, life is ironic, right?

[Displaced fic]

To any newcomers reading this fic, I want to point this out. The story may seem confusing in the first five chapters, as I was trying to figure out how I want to write the story. I won't be getting rid of any chapters, but some small points might contradict each other across both of them. These points hopefully won't affect much of the future.

Secrets. Everypony has them, and as they get older the more numerous they become. Their benevolent ruler Celestia herself has lost track of just how many secrets she holds, but Twilight and Luna are going to find out quite a few of them. Follow Twilight and Luna as they discover things about themselves, and those dear to them, as memories and secrets are brought to the light.

Note - The writing is the earliest I have of what I've done. As such it's quite sloppy compared to my standards today. Slated for a rewrite/full editing in the future. At some point.

Njeri Ujk (an american with a weird name) and his friend Charles accidentally cast a spell on himself and tuns himself into a were... something... I know it certainly isn't a werewolf.

Hello there, people (and ponies, few as there are) of the internet! So, Nightmare night is coming up for me... so that means its HALLOWEEN on earth! So, I decided to make a Halloween story based off of the picture, made by Sketchy mouse on DA. SPEAKING of DA, could anybody create a vector of me as a bat pony? I need a costume! But anyways, here's the story,
-The Author

Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria...

One week ago, Twilight Sparkle was crowned the fourth Princess of Equestria. Tonight, Ponyville hosts the 1003rd Summer Sun Celebration, and Princess Celestia and Princess Luna want a vacation. With two fine young princesses like Cadance and Twilight to take over for them, nothing could possibly go wrong.

Twilight composes a letter to the Princess about a terrible Hearth's Warming gift.

Featured on Equestria Daily, 23 June 2012.

It was never supposed to end like this.

Princess Cadance has saved all of Equestria from the changeling threat. What comes next isn't going to be half as easy.

One wedding may be cancelled, but a new engagement has begun.

Massive thanks to my pre-readers/ideas tasters: Bronetheus and RK_Striker_JK_5. Go check out Night Errantry and Spanner in the Works for two great fics that are well worth your time.

Warning: This is an attempt to make the Cadance/Chrysalis ship work, without too much darkness (though there will be some), or it leading to an inevitable bad end. If you hate this idea, believe that Cadance ending up with Chrysalis is automatically a bad end regardless of circumstances, or just think it's plain impossible to pull off then please move on as this fic is probably not going to be for you.

Still if you want to see if this pretty cracky ship can somehow be made to work, and have some fun along the way, then this just might be the fic you are looking for.

If you still hate the concept enough that you feel that you have to hit the dislike button, then fair enough, but if you find something else objectionable then please post a comment, or basically I'm going to assume that you're just disliking the ship rather than the story and ignore you.

The Sex tag is there for some of the humour, some implication to off screen activities, and a few bits on screen that while are no where near the mature rating do push things somewhat compared to the rest of the fic. If you're wondering where the Comedy tag went I decided while I do believe there's a lot of fun and amusement to be had, I can see why it might mislead some readers as some of the events are taken more seriously that you'd expect from an all out comedy.

A new being appears in Equestria only one problem he wakes up in bed with Princess Luna, with no idea how he got there. How will everypony react to him? What will princess Celestia do to the first human to enter their world? Will he be banished when they find out his dark secret? Only time will tell.

This is my first fic so please be patient with me, also comments are appreciated.

Thank you

The world was crumbling around me. I was the only one still alive, all the rest had been killed by...
Well, you know who he is.
I was going to take him down, stand on his corpse or die trying, that was what I'd been waiting for. I'd trained for it, I was ready.
And THAT, was exactly the time when the universe screwed me over, and I turned up HERE of all places.

What if everything you believed about Twilight Sparkle was actually a lie?

A new revelation to the Equestrian saga... and its ancient prophecies.
