The story, you've heard it before surely. Long ago there were two Alicorn Princesses who ruled the lands of Equestria.
One presided over the day, and the over bore vigilance for the night. They were wise and humble, and they loved everypony very much. But, love and tolerance could not stop the uprising. The ponies were victorious, the princesses fled and Sombra became king. He elected councils to divide his power across the budding "republic". If it weren't for Supreme Commander Sombra, the war would have been extremely one sided. He knew magics that rivaled the old gods, though dark as it was, it was the only choice, and it worked. The ponies of Sequestria were finally free...

It is a lie though. Sombra's courts and councils bow to his will, the public none the wiser.What he doesn't know, is that for 19 years, the Princess of the night has walked with her in her dreams, she will do as the Princess has told her. She will restore harmony and balance to her world... Through friendship...

I'm sure this has been done before.

This is my revision of Mlp, characters and themes are darker, taking place in a pony industrial revolution. This follows the life and times of a mare named Nightingale , her five friends, her loyal and ever over worked assistant as they try to handle the problems that always seem to conveniently present themselves at the most inconvenient times. I do plead, don't judge me on originality (or there lack of).

The funny thing about being C.E.O of the company that runs the New U stations, is that you can't ever really die. Course, when a bitch load of piss-brained bandits decide it'll be fun to try, the results can come up stranger than expected. When jack died, something went wrong with his respawn leaving him stranded in an awkward place. I mean, it's one thing to have a diamond pony to talk to... But when it can talk back? What do you do? How do you get home? And, most importantly, how do you NOT murder the hell out of that fucking pink one?!

Rated teen for foul language and some arguably sexual moments... Yes, there will be a conflicts with masturbation.

EDIT:WRITTEN BEFORE DIAMOND (crystal) PONIES WERE CANNON

Ten years has gone by. Who could believe it right? I mean, this time last year I was just Pipsqueak, I had no cutie mark to speak of, and no tother talent I lent myself to what so ever. Now look at me! Snips got tall, and Snails looks good. Apple Bloom took too much after her sister, and Sweetie Belle... Well... She always looked good. I heard Scoots might not make it, wouldn't blame her, doesn't sound like the wonderbolts get much down time.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Plenty of grammer errors. Please don't hate me.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Pretty sure I fixed it.

The following are true fictional accounts of possibly heinous crimes allegedly committed by pastel ponies. The following is rated T for sex, drugs, rock n roll, a little violence and some language that would probably make fluttershy cry. Read at your own discretion.

Magna Carta is a proud pegasus practitioner of law. He enjoys the finer things like coffee, comfy chairs, and arguing. He's a little young, and a bit inexperienced but that doesn't stop blind lady justice from throwing him some curve ball cases. These the stories of those cases.

Inspired by the Song by Johnny Cash with the same name, a young stable dweller takes to the wasteland in the worst way. He will lose his friends, family, and himself as he slowly realizes that life, isn't meant to be fair, hindsight is 20/20, and one can hurt...without feeling pain. I appologize in advance to kkat if I get this character wrong. I revised this half way through. So, less Johnny, more kkat. If you've read the story though, I feel the song and this scharacter are scaringly similiar.
