In the aftermath of a huge explosion in the Everfree Forest, Ponyville soon finds itself as the new home for Lucario, an "Aura Pokemon" from another dimension. While he avoids explaining what has happened to him and where he came from, he repays his new friends' kindness by protecting them from the evil forces that suddenly appears around Equestria.

Meanwhile, a certain princess of the night watches his every move, unable to judge if this new visitor will bring safety or utter destruction upon the land.

(This story primarily takes place between season 2 and season 3. Elements from season 3 and beyond may occur, but won't have a significant impact on the plot.)

Sweetie Belle used to always keep her building blocks in a large storage bin underneath her bed. She finds another box, and believes it to be her box. What's in the box?

They're everywhere. I can't see them, well I can a little, but they're there. Waiting. Waiting to strike....

Author's Notes: A collaboration with the incredible Flint Sparks.

Blueblood is wealthy, refined, and experienced. He has plenty to be thankful for. But, in his mind, these other ponies have no business being happy.

Arkane Vander was always pushed around as a child. He was never respected, nor loved by his parents. Why would they? They keep telling him that he is nothing more than a dreck, that he served no purpose. And after being told that for years, he's begun to believe it himself.

The only thing he really wants is the power to make his parents regret what they've said to him and what they have done to him. The power matched by none.

But is it really what he wants?

After being sent to Ponyville to be the day guards representative in an ongoing investigation about nightly ponynappings, Nova is pulled into a war between the sun and the moon, one that shall encompass all the races of equestria, and cause devastation throughout the land.

Just about everypony in Ponyville knows Scootaloo. She's your normal, carefree pegasus foal who crusades for her cutie mark, zips around town on her scooter, and looks up to her idol Rainbow Dash. But what if that's not all there is to her? Scootaloo worries that her friends will find out that she's not the foal they know and love, or that she's not even a foal at all. But, when her secret does come out, their reactions might surprise her.

Rainbow Dash is unfortunately one of the very few mares in Ponyville with an eye only for other mares, and that makes finding a hookup pretty tough. Knowing that the odds are against her never got to her, and that much hasn't changed, but when the odds that seemed so in her favor fail her, she takes a bad kick to her pride and decides to patch it up with a few strong drinks.
Upon reaching the pub, however, she meets an old acquaintance that seems to know just how to bring out her old self. The two get drunk and find their way to Vinyl's apartment for the night, and though nothing really happens that night, an old spark quickly heats things up.

Critics Welcome!
Short little thing because I found Industrial music and 'cause reasons. No, there is no actual clop inside. Yes, it's RainbowScratch, and you know what? I'm kind of proud of this one. Also!
If you don't like this because of the pairing, please move along! If you don't like it because I fucked up, please tell me what I did!
Thank you.~CC
