An experimental aircraft has been stolen by the notorious crime duo, Lyra and Bon Bon. As the Starfall military close in on them, Bon Bon begins to realize she's in the company of an idiot.

((This is basically a ponified version of a dream I had last night. I have no idea. Only difference: Replace Bon Bon with Brad Pitt, and Lyra with Tom Cruise))

I did not want to die; I wanted to live, but cruel fate ruined that when the bullet found me. These are my final thoughts as the life spills from my veins.

Emerald Sky is a young, homeless filly living in a shabby alleyway in Manehatten, her home being made of nothing but cardboard. Her life came to this after a number of tragic events. And yet she keeps smiling even through tough times.

Based on an original idea by Cider Barrel (taken from this short audio skit by him).

Here is an audio draft of the story's first part. I highly recommend to check it out!

Huge thanks to Kill Joy for the cover art!

The Cutie Mark Crusaders have always wondered why no one ever seems to do anything about Diamond Tiara's behavior. It's as if she's invisible or something.

But the CMC are about to learn that the real reason is something they could never have imagined. Diamond Tiara has been dead for a while. But that can only mean one thing, Diamond Tiara is a ghost.

Now the three blank flanks must find out why Diamond Tiara is haunting Ponyville and why she has not left the land of the living. And they'd better be fast, if they can't find a reason soon Diamond Tiara will remain a ghost forever!

(Tagged Alternative Universe because obviously Diamond Tiara will still be alive and kicking in Season 4.)

Fluttershy tends to a bonsai tree. It's a nice, quiet distraction.

Flitter doesn't like most ponies. There's hardly anything in the world Flitter likes, very few which she can even remotely tolerate, and only a couple which she truly loves. Fluttershy is not in the last two categories. Flitter sees Fluttershy as weak, and weakness disgusts her.

But when you're trying to help someone you love, you'll look for help in a lot of places -- including the cottage of the weakest pony in the world.

And for those willing to listen past their pain, it might be the place where they start to learn what true strength is.

Ponies get older over time. They slow down. This is a part of life. But Rarity, Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie can keep pursuing their dreams as they get older. Rainbow Dash can't. This is her last chance to be a Wonderbolt, and despite working her tail off, she's not getting any better. In fact, she's getting slower. She just wants things to be fair. She wants one last chance to achieve her dream.

She wants to be faster.

This is what happens when she gets her wish.

A three part story.

There is a secret in Equestria. A secret the newly crowned Princess Twilight Sparkle doesn’t dare to believe. Like puppeteers pulling on marionettes, they have influenced Equestria for better and worse since the fall of Discord. So far they have been benevolent, but their potential for evil is vast. What’s worse, she doesn’t know their name. She doesn’t know their mission. All she knows for certain is one thing.

That they all seem to be zebra.

Who is Scootaloo? Everypony knows about her present, but when it comes to her past there are as many different answers as there are questions.

Is she the love child of two star-crossed lovers? The last hope for the future? The child of a broken home? A mysterious figure fighting a war no pony knows about? Or is it something else entirely? Is she even a pony at all?

Twilight Sparkle decides to ask everypony in Ponyville and find out about Scootaloo...and the stories, rumors and gossip she gets will leave her wondering how the truth can ever compete with fiction.
