Until yesterday, my life was no different than anybody's. Go to work, pay the bills, sleep. Today, I woke up to a world without humans. The streets are empty, the power grid is running down, and not another soul is in sight. That might not be the worst thing, if I wasn't also a pony.

Where is everyone? Why is this happening to me?

Will l stay sane long enough to starve?

Part 1: Lyra's Pyro Predicament
Part 2: Twilight's Demoman Devastation
Part 3: King Sombra's Robotic Retaliation

King Sombra was soundly defeated by Princess Cadance and Shining Armor almost a year ago, and the Crystal Empire was free. Now, after a teleportation mishap, a lone Engineer from Gray Mann's massive robotic army has found itself in the mountains just on the border of the Empire with one task in mind: complete the experimental Lvl. 4 Teleporter and bring the robotic forces to Equestria...but what other dark forces might be laying dormant in those caves?

This story is a sequel to What I've Become

It is highly recommended that you read What I've Become before you read this story, since this is the second story in The Humanity Within Trilogy, and you will be lost if you just plunge into this without any preparation.

Also, this story already has a sequel: What I Am!

Things have been turning up roses for me lately. I'm no longer fighting to survive, I have people that I can turn to, and I have my face back, all because of the kindness shown to me by strangers.
But will they continue to help me once they find out what dark secrets haunt my past? Will they shun me for the evil deeds that my abductors forced me to do while I was in their service? Will they continue to protect me from the monsters that destroyed my life, once they realize what kind of monster I really am?

This is the first book of The Humanity Within Trilogy. Its sequel is What I've Done.

I wasn't always like this, a monster, running through the woods on an alien planet. I was once a man. I had dreams, a girlfriend, and a great job.
Then They came. In the middle of the night, They scooped me from my home, and... changed me.

Now I'm a beast, a demon the like of which the world I've become stranded on has never seen before, scraping by on the fringes of society, hiding from the natives, and doing my best to avoid notice.

After all, who could ever be friends with a monster?

A TF2 crossover? Seriously, how many of these have shown up? Oh well, time for my effort.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Equestria and Aquileon, the griffon's realm, have a long-standing agreement: Every five years, teams from each country will face each other in a competition to garner fame and glory for their home and for themselves. This year, the griffons have chosen war games, confident that they can steamroll the peace-loving Equestrians.
Princess Luna, determined to stop this from happening, pulls nine great warriors from their world to help Equestria and to train their representatives. But was this a good idea?

This is kinda... experimental. If this garners enough interest, then I shall continue it. Otherwise, I shall let it die quietly.
Also, if somepony can give me the source of the picture I'm using, I'd appreciate that immensely.

This story is a sequel to Culling of the Hives

It's been twelve years since Twilight awakened as a changeling. With Phoenix Roost's focus on economic and population growth, the hive has grown strong.

The rest of the changeling hives have been ravaged by war for years with Twilight's brood remaining aloof. Sphinx psyker immigrants have dispersed throughout not only Equestria but as far as the Griffin and Minotaur nations, eager for a new life away from the paranoia of their homeland.

Yet for all of Twilight's desire for leave the rest of the queens to their wars, the Home Guard's proclamation will force Twilight to return to the jungle of her rebirth.

Real cover art pending.

As always, big thanks to Boldish42 and A Bitter Pill for editing.

Discord is bored.
Side effect of being trapped in stone.
But, that does not mean he's powerless. Quite the contrary.
He often wanders around the universe, if only as a spectator.
Throughout his wanderings, he finds a war-embroiled world, where the Vasari and Ortalians clash for control of Liguria.

Of course, Discord cares not for the conflict. Like a curious magpie, he 'borrows' one of the Ortalian mechs and brings it to Equestria just because.
An accident of sorts occurs when he causes damage to the mech's delicate mainframe, rendering it stupid, to put it simply.
Now, a barely coherent machine of destruction is wandering about on Equestria, fully loaded for war...

Some of you may ask whether or not the Executioner brings about extensive collateral damage to Equestria.

But the real question is whether it can discover the magic of friendship.

This fic is currently undergoing a rewrite and the currently few chapters will be reposted when redone

When a group of friends decided to start up a new game of Ponyfinder, they were thinking it would be all fun and games. Little did they know that a certain draconequus had other plans for their little group and he sucks them into their game... Literally!

Now stuck in the game world they created, and with a mad god rolling the dice, these nerds have more to worry about than just random encounters. Will they beat Discord's game or will they end up killing each other from pure frustration? Who knows?

Long ago Celestia imprisoned a powerful, dangerous entity. Too bad nobody seems to realize he's a harmless dope.

This story started out as a parody of the two stories Machinations in the Dark and Celestia's Prophet. You may wish to read them first to get some context for the first chapter.

Now has a tvtropes page!

Cut off from Ground Control Canterlot and slowly losing contact with her friends, Twilight Sparkle fights off horrors in deep space.
