As the Equestrian Dominion expands into the vastness of space, no one could have foreseen what waited for them as they grew into the vast emptiness. As contact with two foreign races became evident, the Princesses grew eager to learn more from them. The Zetross, equipped with vast knowledge and psychic power, at first refused to help the Dominion, instead opting to eradicate them as they saw them unfit to live in the vast universe. The Swarm on the other hand were bent on nothing but the brutal, savage conquest of all life in the universe. As the Terran fight on two fronts to secure their presence in a world they rightfully deserve, tragedy and grief greet them at every confrontation. Can the Equestrian Dominion turn the tide of this ever growing war in their favor or will they be eradicated by these two warring factions?

On an assignment from Celestia to inspect the Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters Twilight hears her friends tell the tale of the legendary Vampire Queen. She insists they stop spreading around such old wives' tales but some things in the castle make her question that belief especially when she encounters evidence that the story might be true during the investigation.

(Set after the Season 3 episode Games Ponies Play)

February Write-Off Second Place Winner! Dodge Junction is a foul place, full of fouler people. At least, that's what Sheriff Bismarck wants Applejack to believe.

Starlight Glimmer takes Trixie for a stroll through the human world.

The Great and Powerful Trixie was a mare with a mission. She would show that deceitful arrogant purple librarian, and all of her uncouth friends, who the real magician really was! She would show them all just why she was called The Great and Powerful, and make them regret ruining her life!

She would face that know it all upstart in a magical duel, defeat her completely and prove once and for all exactly who was the greatest Unicorn to ever live!

Of course, there was just the small hiccup in her plan of finding a way to overpower what The Great and Powerful Trixie was unpleasantly certain had to be one of the strongest magic users she had ever seen this side of an actual Princess.

But that was but a pesky little problem for one as resourceful and knowledgeable as Trixie, for as everypony knew, you could find absolutely anything in Canterlot, as long as you had the money to pay for it of course.

And if the rumors held true, that old saying was particularly fit for an odd little curio shop deep within lower Canterlot’s shadiest district.

This little idea started to really bug me after seeing a particular video in this Displaced thread. Egging me on with the question: Exactly how did Trixie find the Alicorn Amulet in a mere curio shop?

After a futile struggle trying to deny it, I conceded defeat and allowed my muse to have her way and developed the plot bunny that was born from watching said video, and here we are. This little one-shot depicts an alternate look at exactly where and how Trixie acquired the Alicorn Amulet.

Hope you all enjoy it.

Timeline wise this takes place after Boast Busters but before Magic Duel.

Twilight Sparkle, Equestria's newest alicorn princess, is an intelligent mare, and the most powerful mage alive. Thanks to her and her friends, the magical world of ponies is at peace. But in that peace, her entire life has changed, and Twilight is no longer certain of her place in the world. How unfortunate, then, that a past she's never known is about to come calling.

After a mysterious stranger attempts to steal Twilight's magic crown, she must travel to another universe to confront the thief. There, she finds a world where magic and friendship simply do not work, and a school full of powerful adversaries who stand between her and her crown. If Twilight cannot retrieve it, her failure could mean the destruction of two worlds...

A fusion fic with Kill la Kill.

Rated teen for violence, more violence, some blood, explosions, ponified cursing, and more explosions and violence.

A note: it's not just about who stole the crown. It's also about why.

She lives her life in a haze, with Octavia having become nothing more than a hallucination that only she can see and speak with. It's been a month, and Vinyl hasn't even read Octavia's suicide note.

Yet, when she does, strange wording begins to make Vinyl think, is Octavia's suicide really a suicide, or something more entirely? This hurtles the mare onto a quest with which nothing is as simple as it seems, and no price is too high to discover the truth.
