We all know the stories of our Equestria, a world where love and friendship prevail, and hope is never lost.

But this story isn't about our Equestria. This tale tells of a dark and somber land ruled by paranoia and mistrust. A place where Laughter is never sweet, and Kindness unheard of. Where Honesty and Loyalty are a liability, and Generosity always looked upon with suspicion. But perhaps, perhaps a small spark of Magic is all that's needed to help this dreary land find hope. But this place, dark and wretched under the moon's cruel gaze, hasn't seen the light of day in a millennium.

Becoming a Wonderbolt Reserve is probably the best thing that's ever happened to Rainbow Dash, and she doesn't want her party celebrating it to end. Fortunately Pinkie Pie won't rest until Rainbow Dash decides the party's over. And she hasn't said that yet.

But how should two ponies carry on partying when the rest of the party has gone home? Pinkie Pie knows the answer: a race. In the end there's more on the line and on Dash's mind than simple celebration or victory, though.

Sunset Shimmer had everything one could ask for. Celestia's best student, wielder of the element of magic, recently crowned alicorn princess of friendship. Everything was perfect.
Then why did it feel wrong?
This was her calling, her destiny. This was the life she was meant to live.
Was it not?
Why did the world around look so alien to her?
Why did it feel like somewhere, somewhen, something had happened the wrong way?

An ancient spell activates, sending them into the distant past. Now, with no way home, forced to live through events of the past, two ponies try their best to stay out of history's way. However, things don't go as planned when they get pulled right into the middle of a war between the immortal alicorns and mortal ponies. All while a mysterious wendigo claiming to be a king attempts to change history.

Twilight Sparkle has quite a few amazing adventures when she was young and had a lot of friends contrary to popular belief... Only they weren't ponies. In this story, I strive to write the world in my head, and I hope you guys enjoy the ride.

Changeling hype and secret heirs aside, let's get into it.

Coming back from a hectic job, the crew of Serenity experience a ship-wide malfunction as a bizarre incident occurs in space around them. Eventually all of the ship's systems clear and they think nothing of it, that is until they discover they've taken on a rather interesting hitchhiker.

An MLP/ Firefly crossover story, if that wasn't obvious.
I appreciate the story being shared around, commented on, liked, enjoyed, all that jazz.

The girls had known that their friend had been researching something. They had watched as he pored over books writing notes in a private code. They had watched as he went to town hall and failing that, Canterlot archives looking through Cutie Mark registries. And know they watched, as he finished his personal quest. The only thought they could dredge up was a single word. Why.

Raven is a good, simple mare who has lead a good, simple life. With that life comes worry and dreams, but never has she known pain or suffering.

She simply has a friendship, a secret, and somepony she loves more than anything.

But that pony is a shadow.

Takes place sometime in season two, at some point after 'Luna Eclipsed'. Proofread by NorrisThePony. Buy this story! Contribute to the TVTropes page!
