This story is a sequel to Broken Armor

Shining Armor has done many actions that, when he became a leader, thought he'd never do or have to do. Not only has he betrayed his kingdom and left it's citizens without leadership, but, worst of all, he has betrayed his wife and his sister. What spell has Queen Chrysalis cast upon him to make him do such drastic actions?

Rocky Diamond, Lance Force, and Blooming Lily has escaped from the Changeling Kingdom. But now they face more dangers including the harsh elements, themselves, and much more.

Twilight Sparkle's only brother has been taken from her along with Princess Cadance. Now, she must work quickly to find a counter-spell to stop the transformation spell cast upon Shining Armor before it's too late.

NOTICE: For anyone who happens to come upon this story before reading, "Broken Armor", I would highly recommend reading this stories predecessor, as I mentioned before, "Broken Armor".
NOTICE 2.0(11/12/2016): I'm currently re-editing through the story, generally fixing grammar, and revising some parts, mostly parts with Rocky Diamond, Lance Force, and Blooming Lily. Mainly because, rereading it after all this time, I didn't like the turn it took. Too many loose ends. Please be patient, I'll try to finish as quickly as I can. Thank you.

Shining Armor has been injured in a recent attack upon the Crystal Empire from Queen Chrysalis. Due to an injury he sustained to his horn whilst fighting her, he is unable to create any spells, even the simplest ones. Because of this, he feels that he is inadequate and undeserving of everything he has gotten in life. Is he correct, or is he being a bit too difficult with himself?
Princess Cadance would say otherwise.

EDIT: A link to the sequel.

This story is a sequel to Celebration at Twilight's

Discord wants to enjoy the Summer Sun celebration with the rest of Ponyville.

Sure, everybody's already dead by the time he arrives, but it's not like that's going to stop him.

In Equestria, everypony views heroes as stories for fillies and not to be taken seriously. However, in another reality, heroes do exist. When a dimensional transport portal goes awry, a certain vigilante finds himself in a colorful land full of ponies. And he isn't happy. Will Batman have to fight his way out of Equestria? 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.

I OWN NOTHING.

One day, just like that, Celestia decides she's going to go mad with power.

As seen on EQD and the Royal Canterlot Library.

Twilight has a problem on her hooves. An hour before Celestia was supposed to come to Ponyville for the Summer Sun Celebration, she's accidentally gone and killed everyone dead. As in, "dead as a doornail" dead. Now she's got to fix it before Celestia shows up and finds out.

Or, at the very least, make sure that Celestia doesn't know that they're dead.

Blame Blueshift for this.
Now with a sequel!

This story is a sequel to Parallels

The alliance between Equestria and Alemaneia continues to hold steadfast; Colonel Paul Werner and Generalfeldmarschall Aryanne Land's 'relationship' is at an all-time high... though that does not say much.

Things turn unprecedented, however, when Alemaneia becomes the victim. Actions against the state would never sit lightly with Aryanne, and she vows to unleash the entire military might of her nation against the offending foreign government... even at the threat of multi-state intervention in a to-be conflict. The world pleads with Equestria to rein in the fascist nation or risk a global conflict, and Paul is tasked with talking Aryanne's justified response down.

However, she'll only talk to him on one condition:

He must come to Alemaneia.

All the while, Paul must grapple with some of his biggest demons.

Twilight's power, along with that of Celestia, Luna, and Cadance, has been claimed by Tirek. Drunk on power, the demon-centaur is unleashing destruction upon Equestria, his reign of terror just beginning.

But there is hope. A crystalline chest, a gift from the Tree of Harmony, able to be opened by six keys. Keys which Twilight has now claimed the last of. All they can do is hope, hope that whatever is contained inside the chest is enough to stop Tirek.

And then something goes wrong ...

Note: This story is in no way connected with my other fanfics. It's very much a one-off in good fun.

Spike led Thorax into the throne room of the Crystal Castle confident he could convince the others that the changeling could be trusted. That he meant no harm, and instead wanted to be an ally and live peacefully with them. That he could make them see Thorax for what he really was. That they could befriend the changeling and accept him as one of their own.

They didn't.

And consequences followed.
