It looks like Bowser has another plan to kidnap Princess Peach...again. But, it looks like his plan will succeed when he does the unthinkable: stealing a mystical wand called the Star Rod, said to grant any wish to anyone who holds it, sealing away the Star Spirits, 7 powerful star beings that watch over the land and grant wishes to those with a good heart, and using the Star Rod's power to take over the Mushroom Kingdom, defeat his nemesis, Mario, and make Peach his.

Meanwhile, in Equestria, Twilight had managed to come up with a spell to transport to other dimensions without the use of a portal. Eager to try it out with her friends after her experience in the human version of Equestria, and a few experimental tests with other objects beforehand, she casts the spell to transport them, only for it to backfire, sending them into the Mushroom Kingdom. Stuck in this new world until Twilight can find a way to safely get her and her friends back home, the Mane Six will have to team up with Mario and new friends in this new world to stop Bowser and save the Mushroom Kingdom from his tyranny.

While out practicing, Scootaloo misses a jump, and Rainbow is curious to know why. Scootaloo admits that she's distracted by something a classmate has said, and now she's wondering.

What is beauty, anyway?

Just a little Scootafluff one-shot written for (and winner of!) Weekly Contest 26.

Christmas has come once again to the city of Canterlot, and everyone was excited to share in the upcoming festivities of the holiday. Gifts would be shared, laughter would be heard, and people would eat, drink, and be merry.

But one day at Crystal Prep, when the Shadowbolts realise that Sugarcoat is far less than happy with the traditions and joy of the season, they swoop to her aid and try to find a way of helping her smile once again.

Pinkie Pie is having a bad day. In fact, she is having one of the worst days she has had in a long time. And the reason for this just might surprise you.

Narration by Razor Reviews

Revenge is a common subject. It is a bittersweet concept that is often perceived as a pit that can entrap even the most righteous of individuals. It can change a person in dramatic ways that not a single person could predict with certainty.

To Ambrosia "Jack" McAnderson, it is a way of life. Ever since a night on her family's apple orchard, she has known nothing else. Revenge is not some foreign idea that only plagued the badmen of the wastelands, it was an obsession, a righteous calling. Jack was revenge and she would do the Lord's will and smite the unholy people who prey upon the good people of the west.

It's a really hot day in Ponyville, and Scootaloo is working hard to win some bits by herself. The dreadful heat makes her crave ice cream, so she decides to purchase one with the money she earned. However, things never go as planned...
