Everyone knows her as Daring Do, the Adventuring Mare of Mystery, but when the revolving doors of her various nemesis' ambitions seems to stop, she suddenly finds herself with far too much time on her hooves.

Through an anonymous source curiously identifying themselves as Daring Do's Number One Fan, she receives a set of coordinates that seem to point to nowhere. Taking her chances on what could either be a trap, a dead-end, or one of the greatest discoveries in her field, Daring must come to terms with the fact that even she, an expert in the field of ancient history, might not know where to draw the lines between myth and legend on this adventure.

After his latest defeat at the hooves of Daring Do, Ahuizotl was determined to get his revenge. However, instead of going after Daring, like he usually does, he decides instead to set his sights on the other one; the mare who helped her foil his plan to bring upon eight hundred years of sweltering heat:

Rainbow Dash

Unfortunately, things don't go exactly as planned when he goes to her home for a surprise ambush.

NOTE: This story has some suggestive material, so discretion is advised. Also, I want to thank Choya for proofreading for me.

The heroic life isn't necessarily glamorous. Ben didn't get to fight the most recent alien to pop out of a pocket wormhole, because it collapsed shortly after arrival. The weird quadruped (a hand at the end of its tail, eyes where its nostrils should be) is currently doing nothing more than sleeping the trip off. But the Plumbers need to know what it's doing here -- and as long as it's asleep, there's only one means of interrogation available. Which requires using one of his least-favorite forms, but... that's the heroic life for you.

It's just that someone's already invaded that alien's dream.

And she has no problems with telling Ben how bad he is at it.

Keen Eye has a tough job as Canterlot's Animal Control officer, but it's one she loves. Surrounded by fuzzy, feathery, and scaly critters, and sometimes getting help from a certain Ponyville animal expert she definitely doesn't have a crush on, things could be worse. Then they got worse.

It started when jungle cats caused trouble throughout the city—well trained ones, at that. Then she met their bizarre master, and learned that he would be the least of her worries.

A little pet project I've been working on for a while.
Character tags will be added as they become prominent.

For over a thousand years, the power to teleport things has been a high-level spell that unicorns can perform. But when Pinkie Pie hits upon a strange rule (to her) Twilight has to explain things to the pink pony.

EDIT: Holy cowbell, how the heck did this get featured? This is. well, not anywhere near my best work. How? HOW?

With Daring Do as his prisoner, Ahuizotl discovers the temple where Scorpan sealed away the Rainbow of Darkness. The Mane Six, joined by Celestia and Luna, quickly go to prevent such an evil force from being unleashed. However, it turns out their attempts to reseal the Rainbow of Darkness cause some unforeseen consequences. Only the Rainbow of Light can set things right, but where could it be? It turns out that its closer than they think.
(Takes place after Season 4. Elements of G1 are used. NOT a character turns evil story.)

Cadance has been doing her best to bring the Crystal Empire back up to speed with the rest of the world, but running the entire government was never meant to be a one pony job. So when Sunburst uncovers ancient records that that the Crystal Heart is but one piece of a set of artifacts, she jumps at the chance for adventure and a well deserved break. But when faced with countless challenges, new creatures, and exotic locations, will she ever get any time to actually rest?

The lands of Equestria aren't as safe as they once were.

What was once a gently trek across fields of beauty and wonder have changed to battles with spirits and death. Most ponies can't go a few miles without having to battle for their souls against ghosts and spirits, all who wish to drag them to the dead.

And to top it all off there's a creature that haunts a mountain at the edge of Equestria, a creature that no pony has ever fully seen. Fast as a blur and cold as the grave, none know who or what it is.

All we do know is that whenever it appears, it brings disaster with it.

This story is a bit of an experiment for me, so if things seems weird or don't add up all the time, that is why.

When ponies are being killed in Ahuizotl's tribe, he relies on Daring to find the killer, but when the archeologist see their mutilated bodies she comes to realize there is something dark lurking with them.

Daring Do visits her oldest foe, Ahuizotl, in the Hoofington Insane Asylum after receiving a letter from the administrator telling her that he was found a gibbering wreck.

She was prepared for a ruse, or something of the like.

She wasn't prepared for what she found in his cell, or the gruesome story that he told her.

A story of an ancient ruin and a nightmare that has been unleashed onto the world.
