Zecora is coming to market today
So Applejack tells Apple Bloom, stay away!
When the filly tries anyway, she's quite quickly caught
And AJ sends her right back home at a trot.

Though I have the actual plot line derailed,
We'll push right on through with an alternate tale
Of how Applejack learns about stripes, fur, and skin--
And how little they're worth next to what lies within.

So sit yourself down please, and read to the end
About how an earth pony got her zebra friend.
It's not all in rhyme, though; don't give in to gloom
But after this dear God I am not putting two zebra characters in a room together because GOOD LORD SO MUCH RHYMING; WHAT WAS I THINKING AAAAAHHHH! Er, I mean...
But new personal rule: JUST ONE ZEBRA PER ROOM.

A/N: Special thanks to Rated-R PonyStar for providing me with much-needed editing / pre-reading / input.

So yes as you may have guessed this is a rewrite of the season 1 episode Bridle Gossip in which I take the starting point and go wandering off towards the same general destination by an entirely different route.

Art for this is from Alfa995, the guy who runs the Ask Nightmare Moon HQ Tumblr.

I initially got the idea from this picture by the artist Elosande

What if Rainbow Dash had been present when Discord gave the Mane Cast their first shot at him? How could things have gone different? How could this have changed things?How could this have changed Twilight?

EDIT: First and probably only ever, added Author's Notes to address the frequent "Were means man" issue. Please read them before commenting.

"Fluttershy gets bitten by a werewolf from the Everfree Forest, but when a side effect of the changes limits her inhibitions, she starts to wonder if the cure is such a good idea. Even if she does start to behave a little 'differently' otherwise..."

A one-shot story in the spirit and style of an episode of the show itself.

There's this game called Creeper World 2 and at the end of the story, it cuts off with one of the main characters leaving with another person that had helped the human race defeat the creeper, to go to what I think is another universe and I just came up with this story with them traveling to the pony universe.
They face a blue goo menace called "Creeper" that seeks to destroy everything all life has created.
I may be able to get part two up soon, but school starts in less than a week, but I have 45 minutes of free time at school so I may be able to finish this story in maybe a month or two
I'd put up a cover image, but it's copyright of the game creator, sorry
If you've played both Creeper World one and Creeper World 2, you should have a better understanding of whats going on, I'm not asking you to buy and play the game though and you don't need to have played both games to know wants going on.
Also, I'm only in Middle school so give me a break if the Writing isn't that good

NOTE BEFORE WE BEGIN:

This is a story based on the Conversion Bureau Series 'Yellowstone' as written by the talented Anonsi.

I enjoyed his story and this idea came into my head, and wouldn't let me rest till I wrote it. So I did.

Anonsi has read it and enjoyed it, so it has his permission to exist. :P

And yes, this basically makes this a fanfic, of a fanfic, of a... Fanfic...

Story Description:

"It was suppose to be a simple clean up mission. One small group consisting of Agent Hawk, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack have gone into a Bureau to round up some rouge monsters from Equestria.

However, soon after entering the building they stumble upon a much LARGER mission, along with another team already on the job.

The mission, they'll soon discover, will reveal a secret a certain group of humans would do anything to possess..."

In the darkness, some pony farted.

Luna has had enough of Celestia's games, and has found the perfect means of revenge. Using a long-forbidden spell, she transforms her sister into little more than a small filly, all so she could pull the greatest prank ever. Unfortunately, she soon learns that before you fool around with dangerous magic, you really need to read the fine print...

A sequel can be found here.

Cancelled, but preserved for posterity.

Archer is not having a good day. He's recently been knocked unconscious and imprisoned by a Fae race, notorious for their animosity towards humans and each other. Instead of cannibalistic Merfolk or mischievous Fairies, he finds... talking ponies. Who want him to be their "friend."

He is sentenced to remain in a small town they call "Eqshana", until he can learn to "live in harmony" with its inhabitants. Unfortunately, a message from his king, Jove V, has turned his prison sentence into a mission of espionage. Now he must escape these no-doubt insidious creatures, and even more importantly, stay sane doing it. Along the way, he will answer one of the most important questions he has ever faced: Is there really nothing to eat around here besides hay?

After a brief spat with Spike over a seemingly trivial matter Twilight decides that in order to learn more about dragons she should try to become one. With a simple spell she transforms her little pony self into a larger dragon and quickly realizes that she has no way to change back available to her....

Ulysses has only seen war in his life but an opportunity presented itself when NASA was looking for test subjects for cryogenics. He took the offer in hope that by the time he re-awoke that all would be right... he was wrong, now he has to come to terms with his planet slowly being consumed by Equestria. He will learn in order to finally go home he will have to do one more job for Princess Celestia.
