Student with too much of an imagination...

Due to a mysterious unnatural disaster on a trip to Cloudsdale, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy find themselves as humans in a strange world surrounded with the concepts of witches; beings of despair that pollute the hearts and minds of depressed humans.

And what's with the white creature asking them to make a wish and become magical girls?

Well, that was rushed and confusing. Being a fan of Madoka Magica didn't help me understand that at all.

I have no idea what's happening but I strangely want more.

I hate you... you... CLIFF-HANGER FAN!:raritydespair:

Soooooo sorry. :twilightblush:

I could've added more, but that seemed like a fine place to end the first chapter. I'll be working on the next one as soon as my inspiration can.

Moooooore.....

If you can write it that is :twilightblush: No pressure

I'll see what I can do. I probably won't have the next chapter up until during the weekend or next week. I won't have time to work on it today. Thank you anyway for your support! :scootangel:

.....what is this based off? Is it an anime??

It's a crossover with the anime called Puella Magi Madoka Magica. The character 'Kyuubey' is from that series, and currently Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy are in Kyuubey's world of Magical Girls and Witches.

I want to see Kyuubey hitching a ride to Equestria.

If not, then Dash going Witch in Equestria.

You know, if both of them become Witches, and they stay friends even during their Witchhood, that would be simultaneously depressing and the sweetest thing ever.

It would, actually. Anyways, I've got the next chapter currently in progress, but I probably won't finish until this weekend. No time during the week much now that school's started up again.

Thank you for your kind (and tragic for the ponies) words! ^^

Yes! The confusion! :rainbowlaugh: IT'S GLORIOUS!!

I'm sorry. I am so, so sorry.

None taken. Homura's evil for giving Rainbow Dash coffee. :rainbowlaugh:

Also, story finally has cover art. Do you like it?

4977857 I personally want to see the little fucker get blasted with the Elements of Harmony, jewelery or Rainbow Power, either works.

5002446 None Taken? What? I was saying sorry for posting that horrific video of a giant coffee bean shooting coffee out if it's nipples into someone's mouth.

5002458
Ehh...I've seen worse. Thanks for the apology though. The video WAS kinda stupid though, if you don't mind me saying. :rainbowderp:

5002447
Honestly, I want to see if the Elements even work on Witches.

5002447 The elements only affect evil things, if I'm correct. If that is what the author of this fic thinks, then Kyubey will be unaffected.

Is...Is that an update I see? DO MY EYES DECEIVE ME!?

It truly is a Ray of Hope!

Pfft, funny you connected that. XD

Why wasn't I notified of this update?

Good chapter.
I like how AJ accidentally contracted when she just wanted to get out of there.

That just makes me wonder what Rarity and Pinkie's wishes will be, and if they'll be as accidental.
(Also, their silhouettes in the picture look really cool.)



As a side note, I have ideas for the fives' Witch names, if you'd like to use them:
Sif von Bifrost (Rainbow Dash); Ceres (Fluttershy); Brunhilde (Applejack); Diamanta (Rarity); and Nut (Pinkie).


(Nut is the name of the Egyptian Sky Goddess, if you're curious to why I chose that as Pinkie's possible Witch name.)

What a nice contribution~ Although, I'm a little curious as to what the other girls' witch names mean. You really only defined Pinkie's to me. ^^;;

Sif von Bifrost: Sif is the name of a warrior goddess in Norse Mythology, and the Bifrost is the Rainbow Bridge connecting the Nine Realms of Norse Mythology.

Ceres is the roman name of Demeter, who's the the Greek goddess of Nature.

Brunhilde is the name of a Valkyrie. Valkyries are fierce warrior women that protect the realm of Valhalla (the Norse Heaven) and guide fallen soldiers there.

Dimanta is a bastardization of the name "Diamanda". This is the German word for "Diamond", diamant, with an a tacked on the end.
(I am considering extending her name to Diamanta Amaterasu to help tie her in with the mythology theme I have going, with the latter part of her name being the name of the Japanese Sun Goddess, but I'm not sure how well that would work.)

Thought this was dead, glad to see it return!

I'm glad you're still around to see it return. I've been working out where I want the story to go, and every little comment helps to encourage me along. ^^

Why Applejack gotta be so stupidly stubborn?

6779471
-sighs- Because she's got family pride. The episode with the Pie Family's traditions being stomped on says enough. :facehoof:

Well, I just finished Madoka a few days ago, and I'm excited for this. Good start, hopefully the quality gets better from here.

Still going pretty well, although you probably used "Rose eyes" a few too many times. Just using eyes, or Rainbow's eyes would have made it flow better. The story so far also seemed to focus on Fluttershy, so shifting to what Rainbow thoughts on Kyubee was a bit jarring.

Still looking good. I wonder what Flutters wished for. Hopefully not something lame like"The power to protect her friend". I mean, that's gonna happen anyways.

Things are picking up. I was wondering when in the series this took place. It sounds like it runs parallel to the first episode. The only continuity error I see is that Charlotte had already awoken by the time Dash and Flutters ended up on Earth, whereas she was still inactive in the series. Wonder how this'll change things down the line.

Anyways, keep up the good work!

Another good chapter. I suppose if anyone was going to get the life saving wish, it would be Applejack. If she knew what she was getting into, she would reject it, considering she has a family and farm to care for.

The story is great so far! Hopefully we won't have to wait much longer for an update. Keep up the good work!

Oh, cool, you're also writing a Fluttershy/Rainbow Dash focused Madoka crossover! I like how the first chapter puts the reader right in the middle of the action. I'll keep reading this!

I've really enjoyed this story so far, especially with how there's a good amount of fun going on (RD pranking Homura, RD and FS learning to walk again) to balance out all the heavier parts. One quick suggestion I'd make is to have separate paragraphs for when different people speak - there were a couple of times I got confused about who was saying what when two people were speaking in the same paragraph. Looking forward to more!

Thank you so much for your input! ^^ I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far.

I like it so far. I'm guessing at some point we'll see Rarity and Kyoko's first meeting. Or at the very least, they'll explain it later. I'm just wondering why Rarity didn't recognize Rainbow. Or if she did, she didn't acknowledge her.

Keep up the good work!

EDIT: I'm also wondering why Kyoko is in town in the first place. In the Anime, she arrived to take Mami's territory after she died. Since they're working in shifts, that means Mami shouldn't be dead yet.

Cliff-hangers are always fun, aren't they?

Writing them yes, reading them no.
