Fiddlesticks walks the dead earth of the Badlands, and plays her song to the listening shadows.

(Audio version by Illya Leonov AKA Morgan Freepony.)

Apple Bloom thought it was just a game at first. That was what Sweetie Belle had said anyways. It was just something to bring out at sleep overs to scare each other silly before going to bed.

But then Apple Bloom started playing with the Ouija board by herself... or so she thought. At first she’s thrilled when her parents contact her. It gives her a connection with them she always wanted but never had. But as time goes on, the things they say sound less and less like what a parent would say to a child. The things they ask her to do become more and more unthinkable.

When she decides to throw away the board game, she thinks that will be the end of it. Unfortunately, she might be done playing with it, but it isn’t done playing with her.

It had been so many years since Lightning Dust was kicked out of the Wonderbolt Academy. She never thought much about those days, nor of Rainbow Dash. Upon meeting again after so many years, Rainbow wants to know what Lighting Dust has been up to.

And so she tells her. She tells her about the parents that washed their hooves of her. About the stallion who became a real father. About the dream she was able to fulfill. And the family she came to love.

This is her story from nothing to something.

Note: The artwork is not mine, I found it on Ponychan.

After discovering Sunny Town and its dark secret, Apple Bloom flees with zombies in hot pursuit. One of the Sunny Towners try to protect her and allow her escape. Apparently, it isn't enough. Twilight comes to the rescue, only to see poor Apple Bloom face a horrible death at the hooves of her attackers. Apple Bloom becomes one of them, and is now forced to live as one of the Blanks. She didn't want this. How will she deal with the new life, and how will Ponyville take the devastating news, especially the victim's own sister?

This story is based off Donitz's Story of the Blanks. It takes place in the middle of Season 2.

Note: The [Gore] tag only applies to Chapter 1, and even then, it's only light gore. Nothing like Cupcakes or anything like that. It's a T-rated fic anyway.

Should of and could of will eat away at your soul. Somepony must be responsible. It’s all part of the blame game.

The Following takes place after Pinknesia: The Darker Descent.

Canterlot has been saved...The Entity defeated...and the lives of many restored. Celestia raises the sun...Luna raises the moon, and for once in six years in an age of blood and misery...Canterlot and Ponyville knows a peace that hasn't been seen for years and years. Quill and Twilight are set to be married, and Applejack is still trying to find the courage to tell Rainbow how she really feels.

But what about dear Scootaloo...a mare, grown now, in her own right? What does she...a year after succumbing and returning from death, have to say about Pinkie Pie, her mother who is believed to be dead? No body, no proof, no forgiveness. Under her smile, under her eyes, under her coat...a darkness emanates. Anger...and Despair, rocking her to her very soul. She is hell bent on finding Pinkie Pie, and NOTHING will stand in her way. What lengths will she go to, to find the mother she loves, and bring her home? Nopony knows...come now, watch...and listen...as we witness The Darkest Descent of them all...of a mare named Scootaloo.

Berry Punch isn't an alcoholic.

But she could be.

Shortly after her lyre is desecrated by magically altered parasprites, an irritated Lyra receives a package from a pony she hasn't heard from in years. And if the contents are anything to judge by, that pony misses her very much...

Faced with the prospect of never flying again, Lightning Dust learns something about friendship from an unexpected source.

Luna has waited for this moment for years. Only one other soul knows what will happen, and nobody would believe him, anyway. And so she waits to feel the life crushed from her. Only that way can Equestria live.
