Fancy Pants and his lovely wife Fleur are quite possibly Canterlot's most heroic duet. Together they conquered countless events, faced hordes of snobbish socialites, and emerged victorious from the most dire of faux pas. May their bravery and finesse be forever remembered on parties to come!

There is a missing element in their perfect life, though: the joy of having a child and becoming a family. When conventional methods fail, will the couple muster enough courage to seek out the alternative, or will they stay a duet forever?

Enter Chestnut—a daring filly from beyond Equestria, out of their social stratum, and definitely exceeding their boldest expectations.

For better or worse.

Cozy Glow has long abandoned the lands of Equestria, carrying her burdens with her. Too many mistakes to count, she deserved to be alone. All she wanted was to get rid of her regrets inside her head. Even being an alicorn merely made the pain only a little more tolerable.

Spike is the last one left after the rest of Equestria's defenders are defeated and imprisoned. He's now on a mission to find help outside his homeland, where he finds a powerful alicorn filly.

Twilight has taken notice that Pinkie Pie has an extremely unusual set of abilities, and Twilight is determined to find out the source of Pinkie's Power. However, she might not like what she finds

After attempting to impress the judges during her entrance exam for Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, something transpires that alters Twilight's life irrevocably, as well as the destiny of all Equestria. In a very literal manner, Twilight metamorphoses into the embodiment of magic, much akin to how Discord embodies chaos. How will this unprecedented transformation shape forthcoming events? And how will Twilight grapple with mastering the newfound god-like abilities that have been unexpectedly thrust upon her?

(AU) When Luna takes on a new student named Twilight Sparkle she knows that things will be different.She has high hopes for this young one.
But Equestria is in a state of unrest. And she begins to wonder if she can truly handle things.

Stink Beatle, or drone 007, was a changeling of the Badlands Hive! Well, was, you see, his Queen is an idiot and a bit of a psycho. So instead of partaking in a stupid idea, like invading the capital of the strongest nation that Equus has ever seen, he left the Hive to live amongst ponies in peace… Yeah no, that didn’t happen either. He somehow winds up in Canterlot shortly after the invasion… In the castle, under a Princess’s wing.

Doesn’t this just put a hole in your leg?

Bab Seed goes on an adventure of a lifetime, or at least that what she was expecting until she was saddled with delivering cat food to Granny Golden Delicious's house. Things couldn't get any more boring... until she finds a poorly disguised King Sombra attempting to steal her basket with a motor-mouthing Cozy Glow beside him. Before she can process any of this, Derpy crashes through the window with a dead body in her hooves and the police show up to arrest all of them. There is going to be a lot of explaining to be done and mysteries to unravel and it's up to detective BlueBlood to end the case.

Yes, this is based off the seriously underrated movie, Hoodwinked, and involves a multiple POV retelling of events with overlapping ties and a really good though cliche twist. Each chapter will have an Interlude Chapter posted before it introducing the character to be speaking their POV in the corresponding chapter.

To make things more challenging on me I used a random assortment of characters as replacement like;

Bab Seed as Red
King Sombra as Wolf
Golden Delicious as Granny
Derpy as the Lumberjack
Cozy Glow as Twitchy
Blueblood as Flippers

And many more to be revealed like;

Ahuizotl
Lil Cheese
Pinkie Pie
Birch Bucket
Parcel Post
Braeburn
Lightning Dust

A small cameo from Arubus, the G1 villain
Grogar(the real one, Yes, I'm using him to replace that character)

******

Also, I will be following the canon as closely as possible, by that as close to the show's canon so expect some rather fun and odd reasons why certain characters are doing certain things. The biggest point of the movie was to find out why these characters were gathered together like this and I plan to explore the same idea, just with a less flexible cast to really push my limits in storytelling.

I try to post monthly.

After a band of thieves collectively known as Payback infiltrates the Grand Galloping Gala and robs Prince Blueblood, the Mane Six look into them so they might help bring them to justice.

But through their research, they find that the situation is not so simple. They find that Payback has never once targeted an innocent pony. Everypony they've stolen from had skeletons in their closets next to their piles of dirty money that they stepped on many ponies to get. Going off this pattern of behavior, it would seem that this band of thieves have noble intentions despite their objectively criminal activity. What stands out to them the most though is the center of the entire operation; Payback's leader, Slinky Sly...

Who shockingly looks nearly identical to Pinkie.

Violence tag for various fight that will likely get pretty brutal later on and Sex tag is for Slinky just being herself
