I leave this note here in case my sister and I were wrong and there are others who survived. While I am doubtful there is anypony, if you did survive, read this carefully.

My sister and I are sorry. We could not protect you. The monster...the Maestro...was too powerful. Far more powerful than we could have ever believed. And because of our ignorance...our world is gone. Leaving only my sister and me.

But the Maestro is not finished. He has plans to do to others what was done to us. And though we may no longer have subjects anymore, our vow still stands as long as we draw breath. So we head off to a new world, a world where hopefully we can stop him this time.

But this won't end until either we kill him...or he finishes off the royal family.

The journey to be the best. Many have taken this road and many have fallen to the wayside, for this is a road that few can conquer. But it is the road that a certain warrior takes, no matter where it leads him.

And now Ryu finds himself in the land of Equestria, a strange land for one such as himself. But here he shall seek to improve himself while fighting the best ponies in the land to reach the pinnacle of fighting. For Diamond Tiara he is a master who can help her overcome her foes and herself. For Rainbow Dash he is a rival to defeat so she can prove that she is a great fighter. And for Zecora he is a student that she hopes to keep on the right path.

But the ponies must be careful of this noble soul, despite his calm and kind demeanor. For if pushed too far they might see that even the most kindhearted of fighters...can house deep within a raging demon.

Dark times lay ahead for the ponies of Equestria. A dark force comes to take their lands and their magic, to leave them all but helpless. Subjugated to life under a tyrant, their only salvation will come in the form of a champion, a champion who wrestles bears for fun. Zangief, the Red Cyclone, is their only hope.

Unfortunately for them, he's playing for the wrong team.

Zangief will be based on all of his best traits with as much personality as I could find from within his quotes. Don't take this story too seriously, it's done for fun. All my information came from the games and comics. LARIAT.

Princess Peach Toadstool of the Mushroom Kingdom has come to Equestria on important diplomatic business, bringing with her the superstars of the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario and Luigi. But, when Discord is released, and aids Bowser's forces in invading Equestria and kidnapping Peach, Celestia, and Luna, Twilight and her friends must work together with Mario and Luigi on an adventure spanning two kingdoms, to rescue the princesses, defeat Bowser and Discord, and return Equestria and the Mushroom Kingdom to their former glory.

A strange creature named Yoshi from the Mushroom Kingdom has appeared in fair Equestria. An unknown threat has caused strange occurrences back home, and he needs assistance. Does the root of the problem lie in this new land he has descended upon?

After the origin of the threat is discovered, Yoshi is delayed by an unfortunate injury, giving him ample time to make new friends and form new relationships in Equestria. When the method and opportunity to save the Mushroom Kingdom and go home are revealed, will he do it? With all the new friends he's made, Yoshi may find that leaving Equestria might be more painful than he thought.

Will Yoshi ultimately choose to stay with his new Equestrian pals? Can his Mushroom Kingdom family conquer the danger without him?

Warning: There are non-canon references abound in this story. Be prepared.

Chaos runs rampant in the night. Screams of those innocent that are caught by the grime and filth of the criminal are never answered. The guard cannot keep up with all the crimes being commited. But thankfully for them and all of the ponies that live in Equestria, there is someone who watches from the shadows, one that stalks the stalkers. A silent guardian that brings vengance to those who deserve it. And they will be needed more than ever, as a group seeks to unleash a great evils back into the land. And it will be a day that no pony can forget. But just as there must be a day, there must also be a knight.

I OWN NOTHING!

In Equestria, everypony views heroes as stories for fillies and not to be taken seriously. However, in another reality, heroes do exist.

Or can even the most dark hearts find peace?

Batman will be based off the arkham city batman universe with a few villians thrown in.
other heroes will be mentioned or have a minor role.

Tony Stark had everything he wanted in his life. He had his company. He had a carefree life where he could simply enjoy himself and tinker with whatever came to mind...and he was a super hero to boot! He couldn't imagine ever being happier.

And then a rainbow-maned Pegasus foal dropped into his life, and turned it upside down.

Lucky for Tony Stark that the multiverse is much more imaginative than he is.

Part of the PWNY-verse.

Will freely mix several different Iron Man continuities based on what makes the story work best.

It is recommended you read this story in one of the Dark formats in order to better distinguish the colored text of the 'other voices'.

Hey folks! Name's Deadpool!

Awkward hilarity.
Not to mention me, Deadpool, the merc with-
Daddy, who are you talking to?

Are you breaking the fourth wall again? I thought you were going to teach me how to do that today.
That's what I'm doing! Say hi to the readers, Chryssi!
You will all love me and despair as I feed upon your adoration to become an unstoppable god!
That's my girl! Hey, wanna read the story with me?

Hey look! We've got cover art now!
Aww, you were so cute at that age!
And I'm not cute now?
Now you're sexy!
We should thank Sanyo21 for the image.

Yup!
Oh, and for those who don't know yet, this story is part of the PWNY-verse. It's not all about us - even if it should be - but you'll probably enjoy it to-Oh, stop making me a shill already!

Oh, by the way, it's recommended you read this story in Dark or Ultra Dark. Some of the colored text doesn't show up clearly otherwise. Not necessary, but just a suggestion.

Pinkie Pie has a secret. A secret that no one knows about.

For you see, Pinkie Pie is not a normal pony. Unknown to all but Pinkie herself (though she was not aware of it at first), a bite from a radioactive spider gave her super duper spider powers. But Pinkie Pie ultimately learned the hard way, that with great power, comes great responsibility.

And so, Pinkie Pie vowed to use her powers to defeat crime and corruption. And the superhero known as Spider Mare was born!

In this exciting first issue, you'll witness the birth, and rise of the web slinging mare. Watch as she valiantly defends her hometown of Ponyville from evil villans big and small. See her battle with villans all across Equestria!

Along the way however, she'll have to come to grips with the limits of her powers, and her personal failures.
