No one knows where they came from. All they know is that they desired one thing: the taste of humans.

The beasts known as equines soon conquered most of the known world.

But humanity is known for its tenacity. Though clearly outmatched in both might and numbers people were able to hold out long enough to figure out ways to repel the hordes of monsters.

Equestria found its answer through power crystals placed in strategic places near the border. Powered up they provide a barrier that is capable of disintegrating any equine that gets too close.

The barrier has stood for generations and protected the lands of Equestria, but when and incident in the Everfree lets a band of monstrous equines into the heart of the country, a conspiracy long brewing begins to unfold.

Vinyl Scratch is a teenager with two passions: Music and being heroic.

With the blessing of the secretive WUBS organization, she takes up the mantle of the vigilante known only as 'The DJ' and jumps into the seat of the super high-tech P.O.N.-3 convertible.

Equipped with special reverb plating, the latest in auricular engine technology and a weaponized sound system far, far ahead of anyone's time, she prowls the streets and takes down any ne'er do wells from petty burglars to smugglers moving their goods around to downright villains like the Symphonic Society all so that the common citizen can sleep safe at night. Although she has woken them up by accident on more than one occasion.

This is the story of someone with family and friends that love him, a promising career ahead, and the love of his life right in his arms.

This is the story of someone who finds himself brought to the magical land of Equestria where love and friendship rule supreme.

This is the story of someone who has lost it all.

Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle, in another crusade gone awry, find themselves brought to a world very much like their own.

Except that here, Cutie Marks are considered evil and an organization known as the Cutie Mark Crusaders, composed entirely of blank flanks, fight to end the tyranny of the marked.

Adding to the fillies confusion and culture shock, their counterparts in this backwards world are heralded as some of the best the organization has to offer and are expected to battle alongside their fellow blank flanks.

Making things worse are the enemies they're supposed to face. What the other operatives call villains, a large chunk of them they call friends.

The three fillies must now find a way to return home and keep their sanity intact as all they have believed in is put to the most bizarre and backwards test of their young lives.

One morning, Rarity awoke not feeling like herself.

She couldn't move, she couldn't breath, she couldn't do anything. Yet...she was still alive, somehow.

The only thing that she could do was observe.

And so she did.

Full cover picture right here if you're interested.

Overdone Cliché is the greatest hero Equestria has ever had the honor of having. Monsters fall before him. Mares throw themselves at him. Heck, even a few stallions throw themselves.

But he has a DARK SECREEEET which nopony must ever know. But recent events have caused him to face the horrors of his past.

Hong Kong Shatterdome
19:00

A double event has just occured and the Kaiju are approaching Hong Kong. As the last thing that stands in the way between them and certain destruction, Striker Eureka, Crimson Typhoon, and Cherno Alpha are deployed to intercept the monsters. Taking position at the Miracle Line, the three Jaegers await their opponents.

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

Applejack and Rainbow Dash have absolutely no idea where they are. All they know is that they're in a really big, barrel high pool. That is, if a pool could extend as far as the eye could see. On the horizon however, they see the familiar silhouette of land and, as any reasonable creature would, approach it.

Three mares have a problem. A particularly hot problem. The whole day, heat has been building up inside of them. They need a release.

Twilight is about to provide them their much needed release.

It's Ghost Nappa haunting Rarity, what more do you want?

Although seriously, if Mr. Popo can come to Equestria, so can Nappa.

I genuinely hope to see Vegeta come to Equestria next. Apparently Vegeta's already in Equestria. Whoda thunk it?
