Night Mist Peanut Butter, and Autum Breeze are famous for their outrageous shenanigans against the snobby ponies of nobility. They are hated by many snotty nobles and authorities alike, but loved by the humble and common citizens. So..... why haven't they been apprehended by the sisters of Day and Night, or the Council of Friendship? Well, only the story can answer that question.

Spoilers: This story is inspired by Disney's Robin Hood.

Princess Celestia and Princess Luna are great sisters, and very mischievous. One day, their mother Queen Lauren brings a tiny alicorn colt home with them after they find him, he is claimed as part of the family. Will the two sisters now learn to behave for their baby brother, or will they include their baby brother in their shenanigans? Or will they do both?

Only reading on will tell.

Rate Teen for safety.

After another session of failed flight, Scootaloo and her friends decide to do some research. Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo check out the archives of the Foal Free Press, and Apple Bloom finds herself interviewing Ponyville's strongest young flyer: Rumble, Thunderlane's little brother.

More specifically, she interviews him on how he trained for Ponyville's turn at tornado duty.

Turns out being a little ace ain't all it's cracked up to be.

While researching ancient history, the Cutie Mark Crusaders find they have a strange affinity for battle skills that have been unused for centuries. Meanwhile, a new threat rises, one that may need their newfound abilities to combat. But can three fillies really make a difference when up against an ice princess?

Scootaloo's best friend has been kidnapped by a giant bird, and she's going to stop at nothing to save her. But with her being held captive by the evil Nightmare Moon who really wants Scootaloo to be gone, it isn't going to be easy.

Captain Magic Barrier is far from home. Almost everything he once held dear is gone—except for a pair of alicorns, the country for which he fought, and his skills as a competent military officer. And it’s all thanks to a certain legend regarding the longest day on the thousandth year.

Professor Tail has got something to prove. A sharp mind and a quick wit in the world of academia, this pegasus is harboring a state secret that could change Equestria’s defenses forever. She just needs to survive basic training first.

Now, a common ally has played her royal hoof to bring these two together. Perhaps she knows that once training is all said and done, the physicist caught in the unfamiliar world of guard service and the captain dragged through the ages will find themselves a bit less displaced.

So, this was a super fun one to write. Well, sorta-write. In truth, I wrote very little. This story is a collaborative effort between myself and this sexy topless Wingly fellow here, and it is based quite heavily off of our characters and their intertwined stories. The amount of work he put into this is staggering, and words can not express how bloody impressive it is/was. I mean, I was there supervising, but he bloody brought it.

A thousand years ago, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna fought for power. Both were banished by their mother to locations unknown.
Equestria has been peaceful for the last thousand years under the rule of Princess Maakera. With her faithful Captain, Time Twister, she sees to it that this remains so.
And in Ponyville, a certain yellow filly with a red bow in her mane watches as a new blue star appears in the sky, little does she know that this star marks the adventure of a lifetime, which will lead to a world where the moon shines on a frozen land...

Alternative reality where Luna defeated Celestia and took her place as Queen of Equestria.

The story will focus on Luna's duties as Queen. Her struggles with the darkness inside her as well as her duties as immoral monarch. And Twilight Sparkles adventures with her friends in the new world.
