For all her life, Gilda has been living in an alien society. Feared by ponies and shunned by the few griffons living in Cloudsdale, she has spent her life largely adrift. The only times she never felt alone were those when she was around Rainbow Dash.

Now, five months after being brushed aside for her rude behavior, Gilda has come back to Ponyville. Her hope is to spend the holidays with her old friend as they've always done, that maybe their relationship isn't wholly over. But those new friends of Dash’s are still complicating things, and Gilda's lingering, crushing depression isn't helping matters either.

Out in the woods north of town, away from ponies and their irritating antics, the griffon finds something different. It doesn’t complain. It doesn’t judge. It is accepting and it is unforgiving.

But, above all else, it is silent.

Created for the EqD 2014 "Friend Off"

Mildly edited and cleaned up in December of 2020.

Takes place during season one.

Now with Spanish translation. Thanks to SPANIARD KIWI for that.

Gummy's a very silent gator.
Mostly he just blinks. And stares. And blinks again, in a soulless, reptilian way.
But as springtime descends on Ponyville, Gummy starts to feel the effects of a very special time.
Alligator mating season.
And this time, Gummy isn't going to just stand around and blink.

Rated teen for one naughty alligator.

Snow falls across Equestria. Ponies rush to and fro, buying each other brightly wrapped gifts. Songs are sung, cookies are eaten, and festive clothing is worn. Every creature in Ponyville, birds, beasts, and ponies alike, takes part in the hustle and bustle of Hearth's Warming...all except one. Alone amongst the lively and energetic ponies around him, one little gator sits silently and asks himself the question that no one else seems to consider...

Why?

This story is based off of the Fatal Frame/Project Zero series.

After hearing that Twilight Sparkle was commissioned to repair a Camera Obscura by Photo Finish, Rarity volunteers to take Camera Obscura to Photo Finish’s home located near a town called Laurenville at the base of Mount Faust. Once she arrives, Rarity finds Photo Finish’s home abandoned and full of ghosts and demons. As she explores the manner the white unicorn finds that she has a mysterious connection to the haunted home.

Notes: If like this story I’d suggest checking out Fallout: Equestria-Silent Ponyville. It’s like reading 12 Picture Perfect Pony Zeros back to back.

I actually started writing Mothering Bell before Fo:E-Silent Ponyville. But well reading Fallout: Equestria Littlepip reminded of James form Silent Hill and I came up with a cool concept to go with that so I halted Mothering Bell to work on Fo:E-Silent Ponyville. But Didn’t want to leave Mothering Bell unfinished. I also have plans for another Picture Perfect Pony Zero story.

Silent Wind is a Former renowned Assassin who ran from his past many years ago, He isn't known much anymore, but that doesn't mean that the Canterlot royal guards haven't kept a bounty on him for multiple Assassinations and also a former member of an Dangerous and secret assassination guild known as "The Silentblades."

So, he moves to Ponyville to make sure that he doesn't get executed by the royal guards of Canterlot. He get's help from six ponies and a certain Lavender Mare.

The strange thing is how badly they want Silent Wind, he can't be special.. or is he?

----------------------------------------------------

Read the Sequel, Assassin's Tears 2 here!

Solid, like a rock.

Stoic, like a rock.

Fearless, like a rock.

Boring, like a rock.

These are the traits instilled into a Royal Guard in his or her training. These are also the traits of the Unicorn soldier named Aegis Barrier.

He wasn't all that different from the other guards, yet there seemed to be something not so normal about him. He always took matters into his own hooves if somepony else could not. On the day of Nightmare Moon's return , The Royal Guard had failed to protect their Princess. Aegis however, refused to fail. He arrives at Everfree where an injured Twilight was, where he provides his own assistance as a Royal Guard. After a change of events happen, he is ordered to stay in Ponyville to rest until summoned for further orders. Even though he doesn't know it, he's been added silently to their ring of friendship.

It's another take following season 1, I'm not sure if I should make it a one shot seeing as I'm still working on my other story. Tags will be added along the way.

About two weeks after Tirek's defeat, Twilight Sparkle, Equestria's newest princess, finds an earth pony stallion at her new castle's doorstep.

Out of worry, she takes the stallion in. He comes to the next day, but he has no recollection of who he is, where he is, or how he got in Ponyville. The only thing he can remember is that he's looking for somepony. But... Who... and why?

After his arrival, dark things begin appearing all over Ponyville. Ponies start disappearing, and something dark is on the horizon. Other towns seem to have become silent, and Ponyville is in the center of it all.

Now the main story with four prequels that are totally unnecessary to read in The Forgottenverse. (The name is lame. I know.)

After an odd blue meteor crashes deep within the Everfree Forest, an insidious new substance spreads throughout Ponyville, and then to all of Equestria, corrupting the ponies it ensnares. Ponies everywhere must fight this new threat, but... they must also fight their friends, and even themselves.

Special thanks go to Silent Machina for being awesome and for helping to edit this story.
