Fluttershy. The Element of Kindness.

A friend to all living things, big and small. Her great love for animals does not know any boundaries. There is nothing on earth that will keep her from showing love and compassion for the innocent creatures that come to her cottage.

Then the black cat arrived...

TD Harrison Powell, the human first seen in No, I am NOT a Brony, GET ME OUTTA EQUESTRIA!!! is drafted by Fluttershy to go into the Everfree Forest after one of her missing chickens. Little does he know that what he finds there will change him forever...

It is said that these forests are enchanted.

The deerfolk weave strange magic, magic that can bind, and trick, and mislead. But to a pony with a sixth sense for danger, the woods hold no terrors.

Perhaps it is not the deer's enchantments which present the real peril.

Entry into the fourth Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Competition. Conceived and written in one hour; the prompt was "trapped inside". Given two minutes of fixing post-contest to remove a confusing line.

Long ago, a village in Equestria was struck with a terrible plague. The ponies fell deathly ill in mere days, coughing phlegm and blood as their muscles shriveled; crops withered and died as a poisonous odor permeated the air. And if that weren't enough, strange bellowings and roars could be heard from the distant woods.

A plea for help summoned two of the Pillars of Equestria: the Mage Meadowbrook, the Mystical Mask who could cure any sickness, and the mighty Rockhoof, mover of mountains and tamer of monsters.

When they respond, the two heroes quickly determine that this is no ordinary disease. Following the trail, they find the true source of the plague, and soon must battle for not just the villagers' lives, but their own...

This story is a sequel to The Truth Behind My Little Pony

Special thanks to two writers and creators who have more talent and imagination than I ever will. First is str8aura who also helped to edit my work and his suggestions made the story what it is.

Second is my cocreator of the series MisterNick who since the beginning had helped to make it what it is today. The series is much as theirs as it is mine.

Twilight Velvet is ready to retire, with her last book due to hit shelves in just a couple of days. Unfortunately, not everypony is as happy with the ending as she is.

Especially not the main character.

Credit where credit is due; big thanks to my two volunteer prereaders, Goat and Regidar.

As seen on Seattle's Angels!

What does it mean to be the most powerful unicorn in Ponyville, maybe even in the whole of Equestria? When you can fix everything with magic, what do you do when everypony expects you to do just that? Are there limits to what Twilight´s magic can do, and what lies beyond those limits?

Apple Bloom knows that one thing, above all, is inevitable.
And it isn't death.
Not quite.

This was written for the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Group's "What's Happening To Me" panic, where it won second place. We're on Discord here if you'd like to join us!

Turns out that using Luna's dream magic carries consequences.

Set directly after "A Royal Problem".

So little is remembered about the days of Ancient Equestria. Now, with the magic of friendship restored, the curiosity of Sunny Starscout sets her eyes upon a strange old journal among her late father's belongings.

"The Daylight Horror" by Twilight Sparkle. Between those pages, Sunny discovers a harrowing tale, suggesting that the late Princess Twilight was quite the versatile horror writer.

After all, it is just a creepy story... isn't it?
