This story is a sequel to Pinkie Pegasus

Earth-pony inventor Twilight Sparkle and her friends discover a world unlike any they've seen before -- a world of fire. And it may offer clues to the history of all the varied worlds of the Space Beyond. But only if they can manage to escape its dangerously powerful inhabitants...

For more of this AU, check out the entire series, starting with:

• When Ponies Fly

Alexander, an intelligent, young man has seen enough. The way the world runs disgusts him and the decisions made seem to be outright wrong and thus he retreats to the realm of fantasy and fiction, until one day, a magical entity has a very tempting proposal....

the baby dragons Fluttershy helped hatch have become strangely attached to her. they surround her and refuse to leave her side. they don't listen to their mothers and every time Fluttershy tries to leave they screech. they cried so much Ember BEGGED Fluttershy to stay until she could fix the baby's strange attachment. but what happens when the dragons continue to attach to the yellow pony

And a dark evil is in the shadows.

After attending the Dragon Lord Summons, Garble didn't think there was anything more humiliating than losing. Of course, his first order given to him by Dragon Lord Spike proved that wrong.

But that's almost over now. He's nearly back home, and almost finished with hugging every dragon in sight without being able to explain why. But right before he could reach his cave, he notices a certain sea serpent crying. Unfortunately for Garble, sea serpents are part dragon.

And as for Steven Magnet, his sad night is going to get a lot more exciting with a new guest...

What if during 'Dragon Quest,' Spike met dragons different from Garble and his goons? What if they became close enough friends for Spike to form his own friend group? How would things be different? How much would things stay the same?

Kind of a re-telling of MLP from 'Dragon Quest' onward, with Spike having a group of five dragon OC friends. Twilight and the Mane Six will still have their usual adventures, but will have some additional backup along the way. Additionally, I'll have my OCs learn a couple lessons of their own.

Edit as of June 14th, 2024: Thank you guys so much for featuring my story. I'm so happy you guys have been enjoying, and I look forward to sharing more soon.

Spike had never thought he would meet his birth parents, he had been with Twilight for quite sometime now and he was starting to lose hope that he'd ever meet them. But when he goes to the Dragon Lands to see the Migration, he not only meets a kind dragon who helps him through the place, but he also helps find someone he never thought would get to meet..

She just wanted a small one to hold, cherish, and raise. Nature had cruelly denied her the option. It would seem that Equestria stands ready to offer an alternative. It's even free, of cash demands at least. As a dragon, she must learn to tend to new mouths in need of expert talons and teeth, which she'd have to gain in a hurry.

Deep in the Everfree forest a team of dragons make a plan to snatch eggs from phoenix's. What could go wrong?

Spike and Smolder go to the Dragon Lands to celebrate with the other dragons for the Festival of Dragon Lords. While there, Spike meets a young dragon with aspirations to be just like him. Flattered to be a role model, Spike agrees to hang out with him during the festival, unaware of who the young dragon is or the series of events that will follow that could result in the destruction of all of Equestria.
