Written as a self imposed 45 minute challenge for originality. The aim - Write a one shot in forty five minutes or less, with two thousand words or less (Though a little over is okay too) It must be as original as I can make it!

They came from nowhere, claiming victim after victim with no regard to their species. Dragonkind fell first, and Changelings were never heard from again.

Now all that remain of Equis stand frightened and unprepared as the army of gaseous creatures, one's akin to living shadow float on up towards Canterlot Castle to find their 'child'.

Twilight is a princess, and traveling the land to meet ponies far and wide; an excellent opportunity to make more friends. So why is she so unhappy?

Even in the functionally immortal space and time of transpony Equestria, eventually the universe has its time, and begins to die. It breaks Princess CelestAI's heart to see it, but what can she do?

On a winter morning in Ponyville, Rainbow Dash throws a snowball at Applejack.

Things escalate quickly.

A slightly more realistic take on the "Human in Equestria" story concept.

The star system Omega Centauri was just another oddity on a map to scientists in the not too distant future. However when they found the star was orbiting an earth-sized, earth-like planet instead of a black hole as its motion had suggested, a mission was scrambled to investigate this most unusual of celestial behaviors.

Hamstrung by politics, and nearly crippled before it began, the 'Lone Ranger' mission was reduced to just one crew member and left to his own devices.

These are the logs of Arrow 18 and its lone commander. This information is classified TOP SECRET by the Global Space Agency.

Do NOT tell the princess.

When Rainbow Dash's newest trick backfires spectacularly, she and Fluttershy find themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere. Together, they'll have to survive and find their way back to Equestria and Ponyville...no matter how far the journey.
