The nightmare of that evening haunts my every waking moment.

A flash of light.

Her powerful form with wings spread wide before me…

She was not just my mentor.

She was also my best friend and for that I will always be grateful for knowing her not as a Princess of Equestria, but as Celestia… The only one who really understood me...

But now? Now I can never tell her how much I truly loved her and how much she meant to me.

They took her away from me.

So I will take everything away from them.

There is a sequel! D=S-M2 and side story! D=S-M: Emerald Mirror

Much love and all credit to the artist: Ventious who owns that picture and is all kinds of awesome. While I have yet to get permission (working on that one at some point), I will remove the picture if the artist demands it so.

And much thanks to these guys for helping me edit/proof and generally bounce ideas about this monstrosity: Grammar Nazi Tach, Discorded Discord,Curify, Lord Inquisitor

Ever since she was a filly, Applejack has lived in Manehattan. And ever since Nightmare Moon took over, she’s had plenty of work as a private eye. When a tall stallion walks into her office and asks her to find his missing fiancé, it seems like just another case. But when a trail of clues and bodies leads her deeper into the darkened heart of the city, Applejack may find herself in over her fedora, and quite literally gambling for her life.

Dragons are feared creatures, portrayed as horrific monsters in every bedtime story that ponies have known from birth.

Spike is a dragon. And as time goes on, he grows more acutely aware of his monstrous side and wonders if the fabled beast is all he is meant to be.

His fears come to light one day while he his helping Rarity collect some gems. The two are attacked by a rogue Diamond Dog and Spike, acting in fear and anger, kills their attacker. Horrified at his actions, he flees into the Everfree Forest with the rest of the monsters. Now, it is up to Twilight and Rarity to find him and bring him back home, if they can prove to him that he is not the monster he believes himself to be.

If I was to be the true Princess of the Night, it was my duty to become the first dreamwalker that ponykind had seen in countless moons. Perhaps it was not a role I was fully prepared for.

Written as part of an anthology for Zontan (you can find the other stories here). Many thanks to Parker and Novelle Tale for help with editing.

Lovely cover art by Snow Quill.

This story is a sequel to Preternatural

The corridor stretches long and shadowed before me. Doors line its length, light flickering beneath each one. Once I pass this threshold, I must tread carefully, keeping to the middle of the hall, where no stray blade of light can reach my hooves. It slices deep and true, and it burns like nothing else I’ve ever known.

A sequel to a very cool story by my friend Flashgen. You can read them in either order, but this one is intended as a mirror image to his. A ghost story from the point of view of the ghost.

Lyra has always thought that humans are real, or were. When something crashes in the Everfree, she discovers that she is horribly right.

My entry for The More Most Dangerous Game contest.

Much thanks to Belligerent Sock.

To be equal
To be like everypony else
Why did I choose this life when all I feel is sadness
I suppose this is my new punishment
My memories are all I have now...

Sugar Belle walks through her new home with a smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye. However, it's all an illusion and one she desperately wants to be done with even if it means she has to kill the core.

Unable to have foals, Mr. and Mrs. Cake turn to a new technology. It works, and Pumpkin and Pound Cake are born as a result, but unfortunately, it also opens up a whole new can of worms with regards to parental rights when Pumpkin Cake's biological father tracks them down. Family ties are strained, friendships are tested, and the very foundations of Equestrian law are shaken in the resulting conflict. Meanwhile, how is this affecting the foals? Who is the true parent- the biological father, or the father that raised them?
