The far off land of Juven, often heralded as the Home of Gods for it is the home of the alicorn race, has a tradition. The Arena is hosted every year, and worthy foals are chosen to compete for their rite to ascension. It is a divine rite, but only one may be granted it. This year, two fillies are pitted against each other. Two fillies that the very fate of the future depends upon them winning. But:

Only one may pass. Only one may win. Others may die.

After a spell gone awry, Twilight finds herself in another split between two, very different, worlds, and both need help. What will she do? What does she really stand for?

Yet another of my 'random one chapter fics'

It probably will be shelved, but whatever. Have fun reading what there is of it.

NOTE: If I feel inclined to do so, or it becomes ridiculously popular, I will continue

Darkness is rising once again. Granny Smith has a secret to her longevity, and Fluttershy really wishes she wasn't listening at the window. Now, it is up to Applejack to destroy the Ring where it was wrought: Mount Doom in the Crystal Empire.

Sombra is on the rise, gathering forces to his throne. Clans of Equestria previously at odds must unite for one common purpose. This means War.

Luna's illegitimate daughter grows up under the care of Twilight, unknowing of her past. But as she grows, it becomes clear: There is more to this than meets the eye. Is her life merely but a pawn?

Can Twilight step up to the surprise task of raising Starlight from fillyhood, protecting her from whatever secrets may have caused her conception?

Special thanks to All of the Above and Valinor and Physca for prereading.
And most of all: Pump it Up and StealthIsPower for EDITING!

I would like to dedicate this tale to Pen Stroke, who showed me how truly beautiful a piece of fanfiction could be. This story is inspired by, and has no intentions to plagiarize, Past Sins. Thank you, Pen Stroke.

Disclaimer:
JUST BECAUSE THIS IS INSPIRED BY PAST SINS, DOES NOT MEAN IT IS A CARBON COPY. DO NOT ENTER EXPECTING THE SAME STORY WITH DIFFERENT CHARACTERS!

Updates every other Tuesday... make that every Tuesday... well, just sometime around that window.

Author's note:
I don't care what you guys give this ratingwise. I don't care if you hate it. I'm going to keep writing it anyway, so save your breath for something that you can actually dishearten the author on. Hell, I might write just to irritate you if you hate it. I have fun writing, and I don't care what the world says. I do it for myself.

Mission Foreign Intercept; a perfectly ordinary mission, examining a foreign object just entering Earth orbit. Five crew members recover a... strange artifact; one that may change their views on life forever.

Equestria is long past its golden age, or so some say. Speed is the way life passes, a blur that nopony notices. I never questioned the change of regime, but sometimes I wonder.

Sometimes I think, an action seldom permitted. What ever happened to Celestia and Luna? How did we get like this? But I never stopped to notice things, like everyone else. That is, until now.

My name's Twilight Sparkle. I work for the city fire department. I am Immolator 401.

Author's Note:

This is inspired by the novel Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. Although the plot does not match word for word so as to avoid obviously copying his work (and squashing my own ideas), the general ideas do carry over. No knowledge of the book is necessary to enjoy the story.

John, a brony and collector of vinyl collectable ponies, is about to make a strange... And somewhat shocking discovery.

They move.

The town of Manehatten has it's share of problems... The underworld. The underworld of the city, in the sewers beneath the glistening town, is filled with criminal scum. Their reputations tarnish the whole of Equestria. Alan Clopone, a city slicker from southern Equestria has come seeking a new life.

A game is about to be broken.

And Al wants to win.

Foal's tales are not all fiction.... Monsters from a time long past scream for revenge, but who will give it to them? A mad cult dedicated to the releasing of these beasts has formed, working in utmost secrecy. Dreams have powers, but so do nightmares; And where will it go?
What happens when Equestria falls?

After a magical accident involving one of Rarity's vanity mirrors, Pinkie finds herself thrown into another world of ideals and trends: the stallion's world. After recently finding a special somepony who is a stallion himself, the effects of this transformation have no end. How will she go back to being a mare? Can she learn to live as a stallion? Does she want to go back to being a mare?

This story is Pinkie's fight against pony culture upon being gender swapped. Based off a really freaking weird dream I had and wouldn't leave until I wrote it down. Enjoy.
