This story is a sequel to Howlite Howler 3

It was so close to being over. Shiva, Alpha of the Diamond Dogs and protector of the Crystal Empire, had finally given her trust and friendship to Twilight.

But their troubles were far from over. Hidden in the mind of Shiva's son, Kodo, the dark lord Sombra dwelled, pondering, bidding his time. And now, with death close at hand, the time has come for him to strike.

Can the ponies rescue Kodo the way they rescued Princess Luna? Or will the diamond dogs be Sombra's second chance to take Equestria for himself?

Huge thanks to truenorth14 for all the help with the story, along with all my wonderful readers for keeping up with Shiva and her adventures in Equestria. You are the best, and I always appreciate your feedback.

This story is a sequel to Obsidian: Daughter of Sombra

Obsidian, Daughter of Sombra, has defeated her foes and saved Equestria from darkness, and looks forward to leading a 'normal' life... but new information reveals the fact that her other siblings are still out there! With the help of her allies, the 'Siddy Six' (and a few new friends), Obsidian embarks on a quest to locate her sibilant siblings, and if necessary, put a stop to whatever villainous designs they may have. However, beneath all of that lies a sinister pulse that quickens as time grows tighter and shorter...

Will she be able to pull it off once again, and defeat the vile forces that gather at the gates, or will she fall to the coming darkness?

[TEEN rating due to swearing, some violence and a single racy (but not descriptive) scene.]

Twilight Sparkle has been poisoned, and only one cure is known: cry the toxins out. She has one week to increase her emotional range, or die.

Easy choice, right?

If only she knew how to do it.

Twilight finds a book written by Celestia hidden in her castle, and plans to publish it. But as she tries to unravel its mysteries, she wonders who it was written for, and why.

A famous crime boss once had this to say about mafia life: “This life of ours, this is a wonderful life. If you can get through life like this and get away with it, hey, that’s great. But it's very, very unpredictable. There’s so many ways you can screw it up.”

Back when I was a young assistant, I never thought I'd end up a mobster. But now that I am, I can't help but feel this quote describes my life to a t. I bet you're wondering what I'm talking about, and why this story's called Mr. Smokes instead of Spike. Well, it's a long story, but it all started on the day Rarity broke my heart...

This story is a sequel to Playing Detective

a sequel to garatheauthor’s story, Playing Detective, Sunset’s 2 kids learn what happened to their mother and what life might have been like if she had not been murdered.

It's been almost twenty years since Sunburst last spent the night at Starlight's home. Much has changed since then. If it weren't for her other friends finding a way for them to reconnect, Starlight might have truly lost her first friend. While she looks back fondly on their friendship as foals, Sunburst doesn't even seem to like talking about that time in their lives, much less revisiting it.

When Starlight approaches Sunburst the night before he returns to the Crystal Empire, she inadvertently discovers something about her old friend that might explain it all.

Inspired by a scene from Uncommon Bond. Story takes place towards the end of the episode.

My name is Octavia Melody.  I used to be a spy until being put out to pasture.  When that happens, one has nothing.  No cash, no credit, no job history.  You’re stuck in whatever rural hometown you have left.  You do whatever work comes your way and rely on anypony who still talks to you: a faithful but raunchy old friend, a freewheeling daredevil unlucky in love, and your mother too if you’re that desperate.  The bottom line is, as long as you are down and out, you aren’t going anywhere.

A crossover with Burn Notice.
In cooperation with Captain Unstoppable
