William was a country man. A true hunter. His father helped him kill his first deer when he was twelve. He claimed his father's forest when his father succumbed to lung cancer, and treasured his father's rifle...which was also passed to him in his will. His father always carried a powerful weapon: The Barrett .50 BMG, whenever they hunted. It was simply a treasure to William, something he never left his house without. It was this rifle he used to obtain food and money. He would take or sell meat and hide from his kills to obtain money and survive in the woods.

One day, his land gets foreclosed due to his inability to pay his mortgage. This added to the deep depression he suffered ever since his father died. He decided to end it all. He stuck a suppressor on his rifle, took all the ammo his father gave to him in his backpack, and went into the forest to take his own life. However, after stepping into a puddle, he is warped into the Everfree Forest. After looking through the scope of his rifle, he spots a lonely orange foal. He decides to keep an eye on her from the Everfree, making sure she's safe.

Scootaloo, however, hasn't seen him...but she knows he's out there to protect her. To watch her. To make sure she's safe.

Beyond the limits of Equestria, creatures sleep and dream.

It's a chance in a thousand years to capture such a sight; a glimpse of another world. A vision that should never be forgotten.

30 years after Twilight became an alicorn, the Mane 6 have slowed down, gotten married, raised kids, etc, but after a freak accident they begin to take notice of something more important...their mortality.

Contains: mild violence, sexual and alcohol references and implied suicide attempt

THERE'S BEEN AN ACCIDENT, in the desert…
Based on Robert Calvert's 1972 poem Ten Seconds of Forever.

Even though the story ends literally in the same place as it began, in getting to know the characters, my emotional involvement grew to an extent that surprised me

[A] very well written fic, full of nice turns of phrase and some fantastic imagery

Listen to a dramatic reading by obabscribbler

The mountains dream so long they never knew time, but they never dreamed of Pinkie Pie, or what befriending her would cost.

Now with a Chinese translation by hehelover.

It's the oldest chocolate shop in Equestria, the very first -- and on this night, it's also out of business. The final treats have been sold, the vultures have already begun to circle the equipment, and the proprietor polishes the remains out of pure habit while wondering what to do with her life. But that question will have to wait, as she has one more customer to take care of.

The very first.

Part of The Destiny of the Ancients

We all know how it went; Sunset turned into a demon, the Elements purified her and later on she became the lovable human that we know. Except that this time some outside force changed the outcome, this time Sunset did not survive the purification. Sunset Shimmer was killed and thrown into the dangerous realm of Dark Souls.

Finding herself in the Undead Asylum, Sunset must survive the gruesome tests in her way to either save the world, or doom the Age of Fire into darkness, but is it all so simple and who is this mysterious white robed figure that seems to be so focused on Sunset?

Meanwhile, back on Earth, the girls battle their own guilt and egos while the portal now closes and functions as a Scrying Mirror, being witnesses to the suffering and accomplishments of the redheaded undead. They will find themselves awed of what this lone figure can do by herself.

But who is moving all these strings? What is the purpose? Does it have bigger ramifications? Keep on reading to find out what will happen in Sunset's road to become the Princess of Lordran.
