I try to write a shipfic about Pinkie Pie, but she has other plans...

Twenty-five years later, Apple Bloom is an adult pony. She's married with two lovely foals, and is the respected mayor of Ponyville. However she never got past the heartbreak she felt when her two best friends moved away all those years ago.

All this is about to change though. Tonight is the first Ponyville school reunion and Apple Bloom is determined to finally put the past to rest and have the best night ever. What could possibly go wrong?

Cutie Mark Crusader School Reunion go!

How would Twilight Sparkle cope without her horn? What would Rarity do if her horn fell off? What if Fluttershy's wings fell off? Or Rainbow Dash's? What if Applejack's... legs fell off? All this and more in...

THE MANE CAST-OFFS!

Is Mr Cake literally a cake? Pinkie Pie seems to think so – but will her investigations really reveal that Mr Cake is made solely from delicious margarine, sugar and flour, or is something else afoot? One thing is certain – the Cakes are hiding something from her, and Pinkie will expose the truth no matter the cost!

Rarity discovers an old tradition involving the exchange of felt dolls as a sign of affection. This sparks a brilliant plan to play matchmaker with her friends, and between herself and Twilight.

But brilliant plans never go as expected, do they?

The storm is breaking on the Horizon.

It's been two months since the battle against Nightmare Moon. Luna is recovering, Celestia is busy turning the government back into a diarchy, and the Mane Six have returned to their lives. All seems well, but when Celestia discovers that half of the power of the Elements of Harmony have been transferred to each of the Bearers, she decides to send thirteen mysterious members of the Royal Guard to monitor them as they manifest and develop their new abilities.

The sins of a forgotten war still linger, and an ancient evil lurks in the shadows, just waiting for the right time to strike. The Mane Six suddenly find themselves once again at the heart of a conspiracy to bring about Eternal Night, and only by awakening their powers and realizing their full potential can they do anything to stop it. Friends both old and new will help them along the way, and an unseen force will guide them as it seeks to right a wrong made thousands of years ago. The Bearer's journeys will take them outside the borders of Equestria and into the world beyond, and when they return, they'll have the power and experience necessary to save the world and bring about balance in all things.

When Twilight Sparkle slipped beneath the covers last night, everything had been fine. She had friends whom she loved, a teacher she adored, and a bright future ahead of her. But when she woke up, her blankets and quilts had been replaced by hospital gowns and padded restraints.

Everything is wrong and nothing makes sense; even her friends have changed. The doctors keep telling her that she is sick, that none of it was real and that it was all in her head. Yet she remembers a life far beyond the hospital walls. She couldn't have made it all up on her own. They must be lying… right?

Author's Notes:
What happens when you're bored out of your mind in the middle of class and have that song played on repeat after looking at a awesome comment? This. That's what.

This is possibly the fastest, craziest and most random fanfic I have ever written. The idea wouldn't get out of my head so I did what any self-respecting writer would do: Make the craziest fanfic I could think of. I also used it to see what it would be like to do most of the story in uninterrupted dialogue. Regardless I hope you all enjoy this piece of...whatever this is.

Lyra is once more on the hunt for the greatest myth of all time... humans! But her attempts have been foiled again and again, even if proving their existence is the least of her objectives. This time, however, she seems to have finally found something that can only be made by humans! Can she, with your help, unravel the mystery and reach her objective?

Choose her path, and choose wisely, for once a choice is made, it cannot be undone! Whether she lives or dies, succeeds or fails is in your HANDS (remember she always wanted a pair of her own!)
