The Society of Secret Sorcery. A domain of magic bent on helping Equestria in the shadows, or so its members believe. After causing terror in several cities, Twilight Sparkle takes charge in finding the culprits. The good news is Twilight doesn't have to deal with the society alone. Moondancer and Sunset Shimmer, one a former member, the other an infiltrator, are more than willing to help. Working together, they must find out the identity of the mysterious leader and put an end to the society.

Takes place at a random point after the Season 7 finale.

Crafted cover art by the wonderful Little Tigress!

Picking up seven years after the events of "The Friendship Games," Sunset Shimmer is fed up with Equestrian magic, and content to live a normal, though human, life as a private detective. For her, there are no more Elements, no more spells, and certainly no more evils hell bent on world domination. All she wants is a bottle of whiskey, a desk to sit behind, and enough cases to last her a lifetime. Unfortunately, magic has a way of appearing where it's least expected, or wanted. And in her new world, magic is deadly.
A series of magically charged killings leaves the police baffled, and Sunset is reluctantly dragged onto the case when an old lover comes knocking on her door. In order to fight a new enemy, she'll have to deal with old friends and older grudges, and dredge up a past she was certain she'd locked away forever. Throw in government agents, ties to a black market underground, and an inquisitive fashion journalist, and Sunset has never been more in need of a stiff drink, or farther from getting one.
Sucked into a world of new and deadly magic, unsure who she can trust, Sunset Shimmer chases her quarry down a path of ever increasing questions. Who is this mysterious killer? How did they bring magic to this world, and why? And what does the number eleven have to do with it all?

[Paused for now, but the Full Prelude is Complete ]

The skilled. The silent. The cunning.

Forgiveness. Integrity. Respect.

(Takes place from season 6, episode 12 and so on;) The Tree of Harmony's friendship map is a lot larger than the mane six believes it to be. If anything, those ponies aren't experienced enough to handle this new responsibility; leave the awesome, spine-breaking fighting to this unexpected, new team-- and sprinkle a bit of thorned roses on top.

Progress Log:
Prelude #1: Complete
Prelude #2: Complete
Prelude #3: Complete
Prelude #4 (Final): Complete
Chapter 1: In Progress
Chapter 2+: TBA

Hi Eveypony. I'm Scuttaloo, N-no, Skir...TA loo- Ughhh, I can't ven prounce mah own n-n-name. But I have annnnnn aweswome big sitter--I mean sister. Her name es Rainbow Crash...er, Dash. She hlps me with my seech condi...con...condition!

This is the sory of h-how whaaaa-we acciduntly ruined a berk, and inculd incurred the wrath of a alicon, I mean aricorn, I mean Twilight Sparkle.

Hiya! Rainbow Dash here, the one and only. Scootaloo's working on her speech right now. It's hard for her, so if ANY of you numskulls give her trouble for it, I'll knock your block into next week. Got it? Great, on to the story!

Alternate Universe, because Scootaloo has a speech impediment (Developmental verbal dyspraxia). I swear I'm not mining for feels--it makes her a more complex and interesting character and emphasizes the roll of Dash as her surrogate big sister.

Kindly post-read by Cerulean Starlight, who's a real nice guy.

Stuff used for the cover, which I totally did in MS Paint which I wish had layers. I mean, MS Word has more art capabilities in some ways. And it's a text editor.

Written before S4E4 as a pregaming ritual of sorts, similar to Pinkie Pie Can't Sleep!

In the year 1009, the changelings are on the march. To secure more resources for her war machine Queen Chrysalis now seeks to extort the Polar Confederation for their reserves of gold and oil. A task force of warships has been dispatched to the north to ensure cooperation.

The bears are mighty warriors, but against the overpowering force of Changeling technology they stand little chance. With only a small and outdated war industry the Confederation cannot resist and will be forced to surrender in days.

At least, that's what the changelings think.

Set in EaW. May contain violence, pensions, and 10.5 centimeter naval cannons.

In the ancient past, when the world struggled to recover from the Reign of Discord, the lands that would become Equestria were in ruin. Tyrants, monsters, and warlords had risen, promising order in their petty domains but delivering brutality. One such domain was the Alicorn Supremacy, an oppressive regime whose subjects languished under a ruling class entirely of alicorns led by the self-proclaimed Suzerain Supreme Opaline Arcana.

War would soon come to the Alicorn Supremacy, as the neighbouring realm of Equestria under the leadership of the peacemaker Celestia and the warrior Luna resolved to end its tyrannical rule. The bloody conflict between the two realms raged for years, with the Equestrians making definite, costly progress. Yet with Equestrian victory imminent, Equestria's two leaders were divided on what to do with the defeated tyrant.

Over a thousand years later, Equestria was ruled solely by the younger sister, known then as Empress Nightmare Moon. Her forces stood triumphant and resistance to her rule was systematically crushed with an iron hoof. With victory over the scattered Celestials practically assured, Nightmare Moon learns that Opaline Arcana still lives, and may pose a threat to her burgeoning Empire. But as Nightmare Moon goes to correct her mistake, she finds herself facing not only her old foe but a truth impossible to accept.

Takes place in my New Lunar Millennium alternate universe. More information can be found here, but no prior knowledge of my AU is required to read this story.

This is a comment-driven story! Each chapter features multiple choices at the end that YOU can vote on! The story can also be read like any other fic.

This fic is set in the universe of Equestria At War.

The Great War staggers on, but things are looking up for the United Ponies' Alliance. Vanhoover has just been liberated, Yakyakistan still stands, and Stalliongrad has just joined the fight against Chrysalis and her war clique. As for the less violent theaters of the war...

S.M.I.L.E (Special Military Intelligence League of Equestria) has a problem. Specifically, two problems.

1. Their changeling agent infiltrating the so-called Great Queen's Tower has been discovered and captured.
2. There are no more available changeling agents to infiltrate the Queen's Tower.

Luckily for them, a new recruit has just finished training- former Canterlot cop Agent Cold Strike. She's competent, deadly (well, she will be now that she's out of training!), and good at getting dirty work done. Minor issue- she's a unicorn.

It's time to get creative.

Will Agent Cold Strike manage to blend into the experts of blending in? Will she find what she's looking for? What is she looking for? An end to the war? A promotion? LOVE!?!?!!? That's for you to decide!

As you can tell, this one is going to have a goofy, all-around lighthearted tone, but the decisions made by the collective hivemind of the comment section will still have significant effects on the story- a series of poor decisions could lead to a quick ending! Choose wisely.

The available options will be laid out as a series of multiple choices at the end of the chapter, marked A, B, etc. Vote simply by declaring one of the letters in the comments (along with any other observations you may have). These votes will be tallied every Thursday, at 00:00 PM (midnight) at GMT-0/UTC-0. A chapter with no votes will default to A (which will be the most 'reasonable'/safest option by default). Tied options will be chosen by dice roll.

Feel free to leave your thoughts, feedback, and criticisms in the comments.

-In Loving Memory of Kevin Conroy-

The Riddler has gone into hiding somewhere in Canterlot City, working on some type of new technology that could be dangerous in the wrong hands. The Dark Knight: Batman, has traveled to Canterlot City to stop Riddler before he has the chance to use this tech for his own gain.

Things are made complicated when Princess Twilight comes through the portal to visit Sunset Shimmer and her friends for the weekend. The involvement of these High Schoolers makes the situation a whole lot worse.

Batman, against his better judgement, must work with The Equestria Girls to stop Riddler and save not only Canterlot City, but Gotham as well. But that may be difficult since Vengeance and Friendship don’t exactly make a good combination.

It is such a simple task to protect life when one is a doctor. Go to the clinic, perform surgery when called, prescribe medicine. Doctor Sirus has gown apathetic towards the people and routine, but then his "dark passenger" demands he break his oath on Canterlot's streets.

An archaeological dig in the Crystal Empire uncovers an ancient tomb built by the three pony tribes—long before they united as one. Its design is foreign, and the warnings are written in an ancient language. A full expedition into the tomb starts, but the ponies uncover a creature that was never supposed to be awoken. Supposed to be trapped in this tomb and forgotten for eternity, this creature is none other than the Alien…

As it ravages the empire, as well as Equestria, all hope to contain their plague-like spread seems lost, until Twilight Sparkle follows the Friendship Map to a remote location. What she finds is the only creature that can stop the horrors unleashed, but it itself is alien.

This creature is the Predator.

Yep, crossover of the Alien and Predator universes with MLP: FIM.
I own none of these three franchises (obviously).

Enjoy!
