In a single night the world is changed forever after. Humanity has found out that it does not walk alone, that there are others out there. In the wake of this startling revelation, a young woman tries to find herself as her world is turned on its head.

This is an invasion, but the kind that no one was expecting.

Special thanks to Astrocity, Skeeter The Lurker, and The Cake Devil for all of their help editing this. If you guys have a minute go check out their stories. Also, I'd like to thank the many Anonymous animals on google drive. You never told me your secrets, but you were always there when everyone else was asleep.

Discord, eternal lord of chaos, bringer of the random day, bearer of pranks assorted, inventor of the self-mutilating bread loaf.

Everyone in all creation is terrified of him every time he returns. there's just one problem, his name is Dave, he just doesn't get it! In a supreme act of spite, Discord even made him immortal and he still doesn't get it!

Anyways, Discord's back and Dave just happens to live in Ponyville now.

One day a man wakes up in a pony's bed. For the next several days the two of them try to discover why such a thing happened.

They don't do a very good job of figuring anything out but they do cuddle a lot.

“Do Humans Hibernate?” Rainbow has a question on her mind. She's not entirely sure why it's bothering her so much. It probably doesn't help that the only human she could ask is the world's greatest liar.

Marshal: (mɑː.ʃəl) noun….etymology - archaic: Middle English, from Anglo-French ‘mareschal’, of Germanic origin; akin to Old High German ‘marahscalc’, from ‘marah’ (horse) + ‘scalc’ (servant). Originally referring to "a person in charge of the upkeep of horses or stable hand”. The station became a position of trust and power in medieval courts and went on to acquire its modern military usage.

I've had my fair share of critics in my line of work. It's understandable—someone with the power to invoke fear in those he touches? Yeah, that's someone I want to watch over me and my children.

But that's what I am now; a Metahuman Agent, using this and the other 'perks' of my unique condition to help my team in taking down the baddie of the day. Of course, it was while taking down the baddie of the day that I fell victim to his malfunctioning machine; a Rift that tossed me, randomly, to a head-scratchingly insane world of magical, talking ponies...

All I can do now is wait, pray I can get home, and try to show them I'm not the monster I appear to be.

(Dread's homeworld is based somewhat on the Little Victory comics by jollyjack; an Earth where metahumans are enlisted and trained by the government to defend the populace from threats, big and small.)

I was just going through my normal day and the next thing I know I'm being summoned to another dimension like I'm the great Beelzebub himself. I don't know where the hell I am or what these horse things are but I'll be damned if I get killed by one of them.

Who knows, maybe this purple horse thing will figure out how to send me back without killing me in the process. I won't hold my breath though.

This is a Human in Equestria fic. If there is anything that comes up that needs to be warned about I'll let you guys know in the description.

Probably not going to be a clopfic, but if it does I'll make the appropriate modifications to the descriptions and add the necessary tags.

When a race of powerful ancient beings return to Equestria after an absence of thousands of years, it isn't to the sort of world they expected. Twilight Sparkle is now the first and last line of defense in a conflict that will decide the future of her planet.

Yes, there is life on other planets. This would be fascinating news to Twilight, had they come under more peaceful circumstances. Unfortunately, Thanks to Equestria's princesses, that life is angry and has come for its due.

This story was written based on a simple idea from the HiE group forums. I haven't followed the idea exactly, but there's still a spoiler warning for those who want to check it out.

As one life comes to an end, another life begins anew in a vast, strange world, full of the most magnificent wonders and the greatest terrors. Every twist and turn brings new experiences, bizarre friends, powerful enemies, and adventure as far as the eye can see. Whatever awaits this young man, he must be ready to face it with everything he has, lest he be trapped in this world forever, never to see his home again.

He's the traveler, the outlaw, the blue-eyed bad man, the restless wanderer who leaves nothing but woe in his wake. He is a man that has laid low entire cities in a single night.

And he has business in Equestria.

So a guy goes and buys a somethin from a shady merchant and-

You know what? You know what this is. It's got 'Displaced' right in the title. C'mon. You know exactly what is happening here.

Anyways, guy gets sent to Equestria with powers.

Copious amounts of dank memes occur.

Buckle up kids, your're going to have to go to the hospital after this.

That story I probably get banned for.
