I come here sometimes and bring them out again.

It's okay to hate them. I don't hate myself.

It's okay to hurt them. I won't hurt myself.

I want to smile like them. I don't smile for myself.

Rarity and Applejack are detectives in the small town of Ponyville, a town gripped in fear of the 'Rune Shredder', a mysterious and sadistic entity who violently kills innocent ponies in the dead of night. The two of them must not only figure out who is responsible for these acts of careful and gruesome murder, but solve many other cases in their small town. Helping them is Pinkie, their Forensic officer with insane perception, and many other familiar characters.

This story is quite violent, and not really for the weak of heart. Also, cover image is by me.

I wasn't always evil. There was a time, long ago, when I was known across Equestria as the Guardian of Harmony. So what changed? Oh, nothing changed, really. The... conditions... were always there. What are these conditions, you ask? Well, for one, I'm unstable. I am also schizophrenic. And I have Dissociative Identity Disorder (Once called Multiple Identity Disorder). It all just... took a long time to reveal itself. And when it did? When I finally snapped? Nothing had ever felt more liberating... or more painful... in my entire life. I began to hurt my loved ones. I began... to kill. I am Discord, and this is my story.

The Ponyspawn have invaded Equestria, and it is up to the newest addition to the Grey Wardens, Twilight Sparkle, to find the means to drive them back! With her friends and allies at her side, can Twilight defeat the evil tide before all of Equestria is devoured?

The Sequel, Pony Age: Catalyst, is available.

This story is a sequel to The Lust for Power

Ever since the events at the Wonderbolts Training camp, Lightning Dust didn't have the heart to go back to her friends and families and tell them what happened. She couldn't stand to disappoint anypony else in her life...

When Lightning arrives in Ponyville to hopefully apologize to Rainbow Dash for what happened at the Wonderbolts Academy , she is nearly killed in a freak forest fire. But a stallion comes to her rescue, and saves her life, her original plans are thrown out of whack.

Now Lightning can't get him away from her. And when she fears that somebody is following her, she'll have to spend more time with this stallion than she's comfortable with.

And maybe that's not such a bad thing.

The story name has changed. Original name was "This is Love"

Oh, and a big thanks to Doom Trot for editing... Again.

Also, this has rape in it. Even though it's not shown in detail (though many of you probably want to see that) you'll have to keep your pants on for this.

Since this is my first attempt at romance, I would love to know what you think of it. Am I doing it correctly or am I doing badly? Please let me know in the comments.

Idea came to me after listening to this song.

"Monsters aren't born, they're made..."
- C.J. Roberts.

After being defeated by Cadence and Shining Armor, Chrysalis was stripped of her newfound strength and completely starved of food. She awakens in a strange room bound to a bed by several casts and bandages. A young colt found her near his home and tends to her while she recovers, each day bringing them closer and closer.

Can the Queen of Changelings even have true feelings of love, or is she just kidding herself?

Rated Teen for sexual themes, violence, and blood.

Humans have been living in Equestria, and while attending school in Manehattan a kid named York makes friend with Babs Seed. Little does he know the mare might want to be more than friends.

Part of Equestrium

Rainbow Dash is gone.
Two Years ago she performed a trick to eclipse all others, and vanished without a trace. Everypony has started to get over it, although for five ponies the loss is to great even now. In respect the Wonderbolts do a performance for her at the site of her death. However, a certain Cyan mare is hard to kill, and is loyal to the ends of the universe, she can say that with certainty now, she’s been, and now she’s back. But what is she wearing, and where did she go for two years? Buckle up, for in Equestria there may be peace, but in the 41st Millennium, there is only war.

WARNING: Comments contain spoilers. Proceed into that section at your own risk.

Discord's the only creature in Equestria who can recognize the human for what he is -- not the long-lost Seventh Element that never actually existed and couldn't have existed before the human arrived, but a meta-reality warper, an entity far more powerful than Discord with the power to warp the minds of all around him and the very rules of magic to make sure that he's always the Big Hero. And the role the human's assigned to Discord is the Villain to beat down or kill.

Pre-reform Discord's fine with being the villain. But on his own terms. Not dancing on some alien interloper's puppet strings.

Without friendship, or even allies, Discord's going to have to find a way to defeat a creature who can alter fate itself and who can even mind-control him. Or he may just end up worse than dead.

Trigger warnings: Mind control (magically induced love, magically induced friendship, magically induced stupidity, Discord being Discord), noncon/dubcon (magically induced love, other forms of highly dubious consent), rape (female on male), violence/gore (mostly against Discord), literally everything in chapters 19-21, humans not being presented as unilaterally wonderful and superior to ponies and/or draconequui.

The spirit of madness learned his lesson after those pesky ponies re-sealed him in his stone tomb. This time around there would be no princess Celestia, no elements of harmony, and most important of all, no magic of friendship. His plan was to tear the kingdom apart at the seams, and this time, his scheme was perfect. An infinite jest that was to be the jewel in his chaotic crown. Equestria would be torn asunder and his sweet insanity would rule the land once again until the end of time.
