Stratum makes the archaeological discovery of a lifetime. However, Celestia is not the only ruler who wants it. When the King of the Griffons tries to cover up an ancient secret with force, Equestria is threatened by war.

The Wonderbolts are called up to defend a critical rescue operation from griffon attacks. Instantly overwhelmed, they hold open tryouts. However, Rainbow Dash seems reluctant to seize this perfect opportunity.

What is it that is holding her back? Only Fluttershy knows why her former classmate cannot seem to step up to her dreams.

Without Rainbow Dash, it seems as if all of Equestria will be lost.

Now full of guilt for the way she treated ponies in the past, Gilda decides to make amends and come to Ponyville to officially apologize. In particular, she's hoping to apologize to one pony: Fluttershy.

After being told where she can find the pegasus, Gilda prepares to do the hardest thing she's ever done: Say she's sorry. After all, griffons aren't usually big on apologies.

Fluttershy is never one to turn away an offer from someone who wants to make amends. And perhaps, she and Gilda can not only come to an understanding, but can become friends.

Coco Pommel and Gilda could hardly be any more different; one is a rather normal schoolgirl with a nice, reserved demeanor, good grades, and safe hobbies, while the other is the bully that everyone on campus fears to some extent, even if they do manage to keep her just inside of the rules.

However, despite what most may expect, Coco can’t keep herself away from Gilda for long--the griffon’s large, burly form lights a fire in the petite earth pony, and while it normally makes her face burst into flames and her gait turn a little funny, finding out something she should’ve expected finally makes her take a step towards making her dreams come true.

I’m doing something a bit different with this one, as while usually I tend to focus on a specific point above all else, here I’m just trying to make a nice ship-fic. I would appreciate some feedback and constructive criticism.

A few weeks have passed after Nightmare Moon's defeat and Princess Luna's freedom and she has returned to Equestria to rule once more by her sister Celestia's side. However, a mysterious young griffon is discovered, and the questions about this young unknown griffon grow as Celestia and many others try to find out how and where he came from.

No solid answers come and communicating with the young griffon is going to be more of a challenge then they could believe.

(The one rule is revealed in Chapter Six. If you wish to be spoiled, reveal the spoiler, but if not, read to Chapter Six. Also, if there is a better way of wording this, please let me know.)

The one rule is: Letting someone hold the Griffon's (Young one's) plush and returning it to him is for him to have absolute trust in someone without the need for words.

"...I have done many horrible deeds... but perhaps, there still a chance to atone for my mistakes...” ~ Black Star, former Captain of the Griffin Kingdom Air Force.

Decades before the Equestrian War began. The Principality of Belka, a griffon fascist nation located just south of the Griffin Kingdom and east of the Crystal Empire accepted the terms of surrender and merged it's government with the superpower the Griffin Empire to become the latter's industrial state. The Griffin Empire thought that the merging between the two nations will gain some benefit, unaware of the seeds of hatred were already being planted inside the newfound state...

Just 20 years before the Equestrian War, a massive catastrophe engulfed the planet as an asteroid broke up into ten thousand fragments and impacted the planet, causing severe loss of life and structures despite multiple asteroid counter-weapons had already been built. The disaster caused the Griffin Empire to collapse and become the smaller Griffin Kingdom, which it's relation with the neighboring superpower Equestria became more and more strained ever since the disaster.

Now, ten months after the Equestrian War, the griffon Black Star who seeks atonement or his past mistakes find himself caught in the crossfire between the rebellious state of Neue Gryphus and the still recovering Griffin Kingdom. The crossfire quickly escalated into a war and every dark secrets behind the war may plunge the entire Equine world into chaos. What's worse, an old threat from the past may hadn't made it's final move...

Will Black Star find atonement for his mistakes? Or die trying. (MLP: FiM universe merged with Strangereal)

This is a spin off of PolishValsion's Ace Combat: Equestria Chronicles and I already had his approval to write this. Several characters from his fic will appear in the future.

His stories:
Ace Combat: The Equestrian War
Ace Combat: Wings of Unity

The character profiles of this story can be viewed here:
Ace Combat: Gryphon Wings Character Profiles

If you find any grammar or spelling mistakes, I apologize. English is my second language and I'm still not very good at it. (very)

The story takes place before the start of Season 3 of the MLP: FiM and it will focus more on the griffons rather than the ponies. The story takes several elements from Air Combat, Ace Combat 3, 04, Zero, 6, Northern Wings, and Infinity.

Just like PolishValsion's stories, there are music links on the chapters to provide a sense of atmosphere on the story. Just open up a new tab and listen while reading. This is purely optional of course.

For the last 16 years, the tomboyish teenager now going to Canterlot High named Rainbow Dash lived the life of an ordinary girl growing up in the suburbs of Canterlot City. Her daily worries were usually about if she could ever beat her rival Lightning Dust in the school's soccer games, whether she could ever get over the messy breakup she had with Gilda, or finally admit that she had a crush on her lifelong best friend Fluttershy.

However, one day, Twilight Sparkle, another close friend of hers, took Rainbow as well as their other friends to the place where she was interning at: CelestiaCorp, a highly successful science and development corporation founded by the one and only Miss Celestia and her sister Luna.

When Twilight was showing them around the place, Rainbow accidentally ended up being bitten by one of the mutated spiders that the company had experimented on, altering her physiology and giving her extraordinary new abilities.

But what will she do with these new powers? Will she just use them for her personal gain, or could the brash and arrogant Rainbow Dash actually learn what it truly means to be a hero? Would she ever understand that with great power, there must always be an even greater responsibility to go with it?

The answer to that question would need to be answered soon though...for in the shadows, a deadly new villain was ready to make her grand debut...

This is the story of how Rainbow Dash became the Awesome Spider-Girl.

Pairings: FlutterDash and Sunlight, with hints of a previous Gildash relationship, as well as several minor side-ships.

Also, here's a link to a TV Tropes page I've been working on for it. Could use some help with that one though.

1000 years ago there was a kingdom on the moon but all of a sudden the Negamoon Led by nightmare moon came in then destroyed the palace! Princess Celestia fearing this is the last of her moon kingdom used the elements of harmony to seal the negamoon away thus making all of her subjects completely immoble and sending them to earth for a new life since she used the last of her power she sent her loyal students sweetiebelle and applebloom to find them again in order to save the moon kingdom! will they be able to stop nightmare moon? or will they give up and surrender? stay tuned on Sailor Rarity! I'm gonna try to get the spelling and punctuation right this time if I make a mistake in the grammar and punctuation telling me in the comments will really be appreciated! Anyways tell me if the characters are messed up (as in I gave the wrong pony the wrong character from sailor moon) once I'm done with that character it would really help alot! I forgot to mention that I was looking for an image that actually matches the story like rarity and the others with serena's and her friends' clothes on but this is the closest I could get. Also please keep in mind that I'm basing every chapter after every episode (until epsiode 62 where the negaverse is finally destroyed). if it isn't ok then I can atleast put 2 episodes into 1 chapter unless I'm not supposed to have so many chapters typed! dang I keep forgetting about some thing the non-main characters (The school kids in this besides sails who's playing a villan)

Gilda has a secret. An embarrassing, embarrassing secret, keeping her tethered to Ponyville in spite of everything. She's in love with the most amazing, adorable pony ever. But how could Derpy ever love a rude, brutish griffon like Gilda?

just wanted to write something for my most beloved and niche rarepair!! pls enjoy :)

A story set in RainbowDoubleDash's Lunaverse:

For decades the Equestrian Embassy to the Griffon Kingdoms has been a dumping ground for those who lost the great games of Equestrian politics. But now, the political graveyard finds itself on the front lines of the brewing war against the Tyrant Sun as a charismatic agent of Corona calling themselves The Voice of the Sun seeks to turn Equestria's neighbors against it. As part of a plan to both counter the influence of the the Voice and potentially turn the tables on the mad Alicorn, Raindrops and Lyra are sent to the Griffon Kingdoms as official representatives of Princess Luna and Knights of Equestria.

Now cut off from their friends in a strange land with only the rejects and victims of the Night Court to support them, the two Elements find themselves fighting a far different battle than they had been expecting as they try to protect their homeland from a burning tide of treacherous heresy...

When Equestria accidentally opened a portal to another world, they discovered a new species: humans. Their arrival changed the world. For the Equestrian Ponies, it heralded a great cultural and technological jump needed from their stagnating way of life. For the Gryphons, however, they represented something baser: an opportunity to increase food stock and finally have a 'friendlier' predator species to ally themselves with.

For Gilda, one of the the humans was Ancestor-sent, a soul she would protect for bringing much joy to her life. And when a chain of events force her to accompany her human to Equestria, she recalls the circumstances of their meeting, the trials they pass through, the friendship forged through fire, and love born out of understanding under the harsh skies of the Kingdom.

This is her story.

"You are mine!"
