Everypony knows the story of the 'Mare in the Moon'; Younger sister jealous of older sister, blah blah blah- banished for a thousand years blah blah blah!
Prophecy states that on the longest day of the thousandth year, the stars would aid in her escape and she'd be unleashed on the world once more, but what nopony really knows is how these stars would aid in her escape, and what caused them to go to the moon.
This is the story of the four 'stars' that went to the moon, and Nightmare Moon's escape from her prison.
Chapters (4)

YOU STOLE MY IDEA YOU PRICK
So reading this when I get home tonight.
at first i thought a little bit about the Mitghy morphin power rangers intro of season 1 ritas escape
568099 Nice idea.
Poor white bot... doesn't NASA have an intelligence test to check for stupidity and incompetence? I'm pretty sure they have something in place to ensure grown children don't get a hold of the important jobs...
.... well. I jsut had a laughter attack.
Oh no, it all makes sense now...
And the next chapter isn't even out yet.
All these favs I'm getting in less than a day since its posting...it feels like Christmas!

How many retards does it take to free a crazed goddess?

this... is beautiful
Hi Nightmare Moon, and say hello to the idiot division of humanity
I never knew I wanted this, but now I realize that it is the only possible choice for greatest idea in the history of ponies.
Ha, best moon comedy ever.
XD Well! That wraps everything up nicely
And you've fit it in so well to the canon universe! I will never see the first episode the same way again
Congrats! You have won an internet!

I actually was going to do one last tiny bit involving the astronaughts going home to report their mission as failed, but you're right; this is probably as good as its gonna get. It's about half done now, though, d'ya tihnk I should finish it up, or just leave it?
671686 Sure! By all means show us the astronauts fates.
I'm sorry
when I said it wrapped everything up, I was thinking more for the pony's side. 
My bad about forgetting the space monkeys.

Okay, I'll finish it up tomorrow (hopefully, if all goes well) and post it then. I'm too lazy to do it right now, and Fallout 3 is calling me.
It is actually “Someone set up us the bomb”
This story far surpassed my expectations in that it did not die after one chapter.
(I was expecting a oneshot, really)
Okay, this was an absolute GEM, and I hope you continue it as a series.
In all honesty, I think it would do quite well.
Especially since it would be a truly novel method starting a HiE fic that (for once) has the human character(s) knowing what's going on in advance, and having Royal permission in advance as well.

Originally that was exactly what it was going to be, but I didn't want to take the time to write all of it up just to post something that almost nobody would read, so I broke it into parts and posted in increments.

). If this had gotten featured I might have done so, but I don't think I will now.
I don't think that I myself will, but if anybody else wants to, they're welcome to it. This fic was meant as an attempt to break my Writer's Block on 'A Favor Returned'. I'm probably going to have to watch a season of Doctor Who again for that, though.
As to it 'doing well', the most attention this got was during the first chapter, and the votes for 'like' are still rather low compared to the amount of 'favorites' (numbering forty-three, currently, in comparison to the 25 up votes

And to that guy(or girl) that accused me of stealing his/her idea, No one is stopping you from making your own version. There are literally DOZENS of stories for one topic or another on this website alone: Halo, Fallout, Doctor Who, Star Wars, Cupcakes- there are enough of those that if printed out we might be able to sink an aircraft carrier. Just make another. Who knows, yours might be better. *Shrugs*

Oh, well, all right.
Well, I hope you can get rid of your writer's block, mine's been chasing me around for a while.
While I'm at it, you should join in my (rather gigantic) project, involving a huge amount of alternate universes!
Sign up is [here] if you want to, and it includes a lot of the relevant information. If you're interested, shoot me a PM and I'll work stuff out w/ you!
Now this was nice!
I'm not really good at making very nice looking compliments, but know this: The epilogue just adds on to making this story memorable! This was a fantastic fanfic to read, and honestly it saddens me abit that not more people had read this.
And about that sequel thing someone else said, I think the story is good as it is, but if for some reason you did want to make a sequel, I have no doubt that would go great as well.
That ending you made can serve as a good story plug, as well as give enough room for a sequel BTW
I have just discovered that some people have indeed found a way to sing in Moonbase Alpha. I'm actually probably the last person to find this out. I usually am. Nevertheless,
Guess what they're singing.
924159 I found out about that (and this) beacause of a vid you commented on about this story... (9896yoyo on youtube btw)

yeah, shows you how much I love to draw attention to myself.
Wait a second.
They are in space how can the robot be burning in space WHEN THERE'S NO AIR?!

It's a magic moon, bro. True story.
Very nice.
Mate, it took me way too bloody long to read this. I apologise for leaving this on my read later list for months.
But it was great, and worth reading, so thank you for writing it.
2721044
You're welcome. I actually had a ridiculous amount of fun writing it.
2721079 I can tell.
it's that kind of fun story.
This is the damn funniest thing I have read in a DAMN long time. My sides have entered orbit. Lunar Orbit.

Human stupidity never gets old in terms of comedic value.
So last year they release an update which added a game mode that you say was partial horror. You know who to blame it on?
Nightmare Moon :3
I haven't read it, but I saw Moonbase Alpha and thought 'wow, and I thought I was the only one who's seen an episode of Space: 1999!'
I had to chuckle at this, being a Moonbase Alpha fan. However, I do think it could use a vigorous editing, and perhaps even a rewrite.

? It was written with the purpose of being mostly stupid, and I drew on material directly from the videos. How can one improve on that? I probably made a few mistakes here and there, but could you be more specific, please?
