Sunset wakes up covered in blood once more. Like always, she has no memory of what she did the night before. However, there was a witness this time.

Edited by Rainedash!

When a dark, familar swarm descends on Ponyville, chaos ensues. What's happened to Mrs. Cake? Why is Twilight Sparkle so afraid of fixing the problem? Will the ponies of Ponyville ever be able to enjoy a Sunday afternoon in peace? And does a mixing bowl really make a good helmet?

Hide yo wife, hide yo kids, and hide yo husband too, 'cause they takin' errypony out there!

Shadow sprites. They're known to exist in Equestria, it has been confirmed. However, they despise outsiders with such a passion that not much is known about them beyond that. Nopony knows how they work, why they're such social recluses, as well as what their purpose is.

Twilight Sparkle had made ground-breaking discoveries about these creatures, her notes were found in her journal on the floor of the lab beneath the Golden Oaks library.

Thank you, Flint Sparks, for pre-reading this creepy tale!

Written for the 31shotober challenge!

Nightmare night is the time for scares,
But with black magic, you must beware.
For if one becomes careless in their fun,
They will loathe the day they ever saw the sun!
I offer my magic to bring joy to their faces,
But alas, these spells come from very dark places.

Submitted for the 31shotober challenge! Don't forget to rate and happy nightmare night!

The start of the virus was unknown, but it started and spread through Equestria like wildfire, killing countless thousands of ponies. Hardly any are still alive, and the ones that are struggle to survive. The Mane Six are a few of the survivors, and this is a short, yet dark, tale of their struggle to survive.

Suggested official rating: PG-13 for disturbing violent content, some gore, and dark themes

WARNING: Quoted message from a mod regarding this story:

if your story becomes any more explicit in its depiction of gore than it already is, it will need a mature tag.

This little one-shot came to me a little while back. I have no idea where it came from. Beware of OOC moments and fourth-wall breaking.

If you (dis)liked this story, I would love to know why so I can improve my writing.

When Tirek somehow crash lands in Manehattan, all seems lost as he devours everypony's magic. However, hope comes in the form of the greatest Alicorn OC's of all time: Marey Sue and Donut Steel! Can these extra-dimensional powerhouses hope to defeat the greatest evil of all time?

Eh, probably.

This Idea came to me one night while half asleep.

Rainbow Dash stands alone, her friends long gone and no safe haven left for her in all of Equestria.

When Death comes to her doorstep she is left with only two choices: fight or run.

One way or the other everything ends tonight.

Vinyl and Octavia, despite living together, have never been seen at the same time. Is there a reasonable explanation for this? Or, could there be a deceptive reason?

Thanks to TheArtrix for the cover art.
