My name is Rocky Climb, and like all my comrades, I am an Equestrian pegasus. I fly as part of the 3rd Squadron of Wonderbolts under the command of Captain Sharp Edge. Our unit prevented the infiltration of the lunarist heresy into our ranks. We are faithful to our duty to protect and serve our country and Princess Celestia the solar patroness of all daytime ponies.

Because the last story succeeded in reaching its goal of surpassing one view (the biggest success ever, yay!), Mare is back in an all new adventure, where she must face off against an even greater villain, her old rival from high school. Banished from Equestria after losing a staring contest, she must seek out none other than her own author, Hawk Nightwing, and get his help to clear her name. Only then will she stop this ignorant, stupid, and mind numbingly incompetent villain and save Extria once again…!

Author’s Note: Part 2 of my April Fools annual special. A four-chapter event starting April 1st, chapters will be updated daily until this story is complete.

Allen has enjoyed being an Earth pony. He has friends, gathers food, and life is good. But that all charges when he gets bitten by a bat. Soon, Allen starts to change; and everypony is noticing. Soon, Allen's life becomes night and day, upside down and right side up. But when his friends and family discover his new form, will they still accept him, or flee from the monster he has become? And how will Allen deal with this curse?

Mane cuts and evil overlords don’t go together!
How is a self-titled overlord going to go through the cultural norms of getting a mane cut? All she wants to do is go home and play evil tunes on her piano. Is that too much to ask?
Although, Fluffyheart would like to talk to people. But how is she to do that? They all are so bright and cheery. Unlike Fluffyheart…
However, just like in high school, Fluffyheart seems to be the target of gossip. The looks from the manedresser seem to confirm it. But why does the mare look so nice and friendly?
In Fluffyheart’s opinion, her mom should’ve just cut her mane.

The gothic bat pony has her secrets, everypony does, but hers are more… dark, more… severe. The sole reason Amethyst has an aversion to things like hugs, it has something to do with her home life before adoption, and she’s tried her best to tell nopony, not even her best friend: Diamond Blossom.

Amethyst Aura sits underneath a tree, the same tree that she’ll have picnics or write with Nightshade Nocturne, her ex-boyfriend. Reminiscing the past, a feeling of acceptance bestows her as she’s moved on a while ago. By kismet’s cards, she finds Nightshade on the other side of the tree, seemingly doing the same thing she was.

Nightshade Nocturne was overjoyed to see her again, and wants what they had before to come back. The feeling wasn’t mutual with Amethyst however. She remembers a huge argument she had with Nightshade, about how her refusal to share her darkest secret, and with her ex in front of her now, the sides of her mind were conflicting against one another.

(The romance tags will be for the two flashbacks, aka chapters 2 and 3)

TW: This episode, while not showing it outright, will discuss topics of, an emotionally abusive/toxic dynamic between family, if you’re uncomfortable, feel free to skip the first chapter specifically. The other two chapters are fine though.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. What a show. And as of writing this, it's on its final episodes. I personally haven't kept up with the show for quite some time, but I owe a great deal to it. I started drawing partially because of it and I started writing mainly because of it. The first stories I wrote as a teenager and young adult were greentexts in 4chan's /mlp/ board written under the tripname Red. Most of the time the stories were short comedic works, but I did have some longer ones, with my magnum opus on the site being Journeys of the "Spider: Sunset's desert path" in the now defunct Spider-shimmer/powerponies threads. The story was a complete mess, hastily written and barely coherent, with a gainax ending because I didn't feel like writing anymore. Still, I consider that story as first step towards becoming a writer, the story being closely followed by to of my first original stores, one of them being "For a wish" which can be read on my sofurry account. I regard "For a wish" to be barely better than "Journeys of the spider" but that's not either here or there.

From time to time, I would go back to the /mlp/ board and search up the thread and update everyone on what I was doing. These were actually my first online friends, so a sense of nostalgia is all to be expected. Recently I also happened upon Dawnsomewhere's old pony videos and it got me reminiscing. I had a lot of stories planed, but wrote none of them. A lot of people managed to get their start through the brony community, so I tend to think if I would have gotten much more further ahead if I had started doing artistic things back when I watched the show for the first time.

In any case, one of my planed stories involved a rag-tag team of horses, who basically did nothing all day. It was a silly thing, really and it didn't go anywhere. But later on I took one of those horses, added a bat pony and wrote in the /bat/ threads a little. That's how "Horse out of heck was born". It was a horrendous, naturally.

And here we are. Now a more accomplished writer than three years before, with a much firmer grasp on the principles of writing. And while on a nostalgia trip, I decided on a whim that I should give something back to the community that gave me so much. True, the community is not what it used to be and it's almost dead, so lets consider this my personal swansong to the dying days of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and lets drink in the hopes that G5 will manage to capture the feeling of wonder in a 24 year young adult, the same way G4 managed to catch the same feeling in a 16 year old teenager. And next we just might make pigs fly by sewing wings to their spinal columns. But I'm being overly cynical.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you

"Horse out of Hades"

The stories of a bookshop, it's owner, and his neighbor that lives on the floor above him.

I hope you enjoy.

Stalliongrad is in the middle of a crisis.
Hunger and disease sun rampant in sprawling slums, where Happiness and friendship are in small supply. Many live in poverty, with the wealth of the country only being held by elite in the higher ranks of society.
For Red Sparrow, a young citizen of the communist country- life sucks.
But the streets whisper of a government project- where street foals go missing, only to reappear in the families of the wealthy. And with the war with Equestria stabilizing, who knows? Maybe things are looking up!
But Summer always ends.

A young filly wakes up in a mysterious room. A room that belongs to the one being nobody ever wants to meet.

I wrote this late at night so don't expect the best. ESPECIALLY since this is my first oneshot on here.
