A young man lost in the hilly embrace of a mountain sleeps the night away under a knot of tree roots. When he wakes he will find himself thrust into a strange new environment, the Everfree Forest. With only his pack and his experience as a Boy Scout to aid him, he must survive, make sense of his surroundings and with some luck, ultimately find his way home. What does one do after wandering beyond the edge of the map? And better yet...

What if you are not alone?

I have been reading fan fiction here for a while and wanted to give something back.
My first fiction ever so constructive criticism is welcome. Fair warning, it takes a while for me to write a chapter so expect gaps between updates.

[Hiatus notice: As of 10/1/2022 this fiction is on hiatus so I may focus on other projects and items, will resume at a later date.]

Rated teen for strong language

Awesome cover art by Carnelian. Seriously, the guy has major skills with how fast he drew this up.

and of course ALL CHARACTERS / REFERENCES BELONG TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS. “MY LITTLE PONY FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC” IS OWNED BY HASBRO

NO PROFIT WAS MADE IN THE CREATION / DISTRIBUTION PLEASE DONT SUE ME OR ANY PARTY THAT DISTRIBUTES THIS WORK (unless they try to sell it, then by all means go nuts)

The Lone Wanderer has been known as the man who shouldered the nightmares of every man, woman and child in the wasteland, so that they may live. But when the Wanderer was once again abducted by aliens, he found himself falling, quite literally, into a whole new wonderous world, untouched by the horrors of nuclear devastation.

He has been facing other people's nightmares constantly for almost a decade, it was high time he was allowed to wake up.

Meanwhile, the ponies of Equestria are baffled by a strange object that fell from the sky.

Fallout/FIM crossover. HiE. T for violence and some language.

Now with a TVTropes page!

A changeling who finds responsibility thrust upon her after the failed Canterlot invasion.

A unicorn who finds herself part of first contact with a strange new creature.

A princess who finds hints of one she long since lost in another's mind.

With the arrival of a strange bipedal creature into Equestria, all three will find themselves intertwined with the fate of the girl. When language cannot be understood how will communication with the new arrival be achieved, and what secrets may the creature be bringing with her? What does the girl possess that may alter how the changeling in particular sees the world.

What could the girl possibly have that would allow one word – hope – to resonate so strongly, not only for herself but also the changeling.

This is a retelling of A Voice Among the Strangers from three viewpoints in particular. You don't have to read AVAtS to read this one, as I will be attempting to make each a full story on their own.

Also, this seems to share a Tv Tropes page with A Voice Among the Strangers!

(Thanks again to Tulip for the Cover image!)

As the elements were unleashed, the Nightmare knew it was over. But it would not let it's fun end. No, it would not be left behind. It would find another world to bring to ruin. As for the poor sap that was left in It's place? He was going to get blasted, what did it matter what he ended up getting from It?

Realized there was no link, so I'm adding two, one here and one in the chapter. After the events of Don't Underestimate the Power of a Bored Mare , the juicy bits that I cant put in a T fic: Defining Love

Edit: I swear, half of you are uncultured heathens. The thing in the image with the Nightmare's hair is a substitute doll

For years, Ponyville has wondered why the Everfree forest is the way it is. Why does everything there want to eat you or kill you as a means of recreation? It'd be nice to, for once, not worry about the town being destroyed by a giant, luminescent, bear-thing that Celestia seems too lazy to do anything about. What if there was some way to...NORMALIZE it or something?

Daring Do wondered the same thing. In fact, if she could discover the fabled center of the Everfree and do something to neutralize it, she'd finally do something big to live up to her parents name! Just think, "We can take walks into the Everfree because of Daring Do!" So she set out to find this so-called center. She would bring back proof of how she did it. The fabled artifact that generated the chaos that was clearly evident in the Everfree. She'd bring it back and finally have enough money to buy a home with some decent SECURITY measures. Yep. It was a simple plan by her standards. There's only one problem though.

Where's the relic? And what's this weird lookin' THING in the center?

Authors Note:

Bruh'....front page?! Schweet! Thanks guys!

At first, Chrysalis loathed him; the dumb-as-a-brick woodspony who goes by the name of Evergreen. But through circumstance, he is her only savior. And slowly, she comes to love the simple pony and his way of life. But her life as a changeling keeps holding her back. Will there be a happily ever after for them? Or are they doomed for failure?

At 3:15 AM, Adams woke me with a loud knock on my front door.
"Put your boots on," he said when I answered. "There's a biblical monster in my house."

Not everyone goes in an epic journey, not everyone has an epic tale to tell. Some just appear, some things just happen. Sometimes a few words, some kindness and a kiss can create a miracle.

Sometimes all you need to know is that all you need is some love, no matter what you are.

Heihachi Mishima has experienced some quite eyebrow raising experiences in his life. Climbing back up from a ravine after two years with sheer willpower, nothing special but something to prove his 'invincibility'.

Fighting his son who became a devil incarnate and then dropping him into a volcano after beating him, a mercy but necessary killing in his eyes.

Ambushed by an army of robots and then nearly killed by them after they self destructed in his face, after being betrayed by his son who was revived twenty years later who fought alongside him in the battle against the robots after they both lost to Heihachi's Grandson, a slap in the face to him which will be remedied at a later date.

But being caught in a storm after flying helplessly across the sky for who knows how many kilometres at who knows many miles per hour, after being blown away from the robot explosion, to end up face first crashing into Canterlot Mountain and to fall into Canterlot Castle to be in a coma for a month to wake to a land of talking horses AND THEN to end up in the middle of a battle between the Ponies and the Changelings that takes place all across Canterlot - now that is something he didn't expect to happen.

"I will crush all who stand in my way! Just as I have done so before."

Tekken Crossover
Fight Scenes guaranteed

This story is a sequel to Splashdown

Things have been shaken up by Luna's surprise appearance and subsequent journey to Earth. As the world tries to find its footing in a universe much different then they expected, and as the strange phenomenon of "magic" begins to spread, everyone's having to make some accommodations-- Luna not least, with the Nightmare now an equal holder of her own body; not a great arrangement. But among all this, the attack onboard Hornet lurks, begging the question: Who was behind it? What do they want? And is it already too late to stop it?
