When Tirek met Nightmare Granfalloon

In the Equestria we know, Tirek escaped and confronted three alicorns. What if instead, he confronted one horribly powerful Nightmare? The earth blasted away from the long-forgotten Tartarus Gates. A mighty form rose from them, centaur-like body, horns rising like a crown, and a smile of victory on that red-skinned face. "A-hahaha! I'm free! The power of those other fools in Tartarus was enough to empower me! The ones that were left, anyway. Free to take my revenge and..." He looked around and saw nothing but mindlessly happy ponies everywhere. The flowers seemed to be singing. The SUN had a smiley face on it. "Okay, what the Tartarus is

Trixie Joins Twilight's Yellow Lanterns

Trixie fled through the woods, panting in terror. Branches and leaves whipped at her face and tore at her cloak. Her hat and cloak, gifts from her old teacher and once her pride and joy, lay forgotten somewhere behind her. Back where the monsters were chasing her. “Heeyyyy, Trixie! Don’t ya wanna show us some more ‘o your magic tricks? Like back when you humiliated ME?!?” Trixie whimpered in fear as that voice fired new reserves of strength within her. She almost screamed when she stepped on something hard and sharp enough to bring a drop of blood from the frog of her hoof. Trixie hissed at the pain as she pulled th

Tales from Equestria: Ardi's return, Part 1

Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria… White wings pumping, two Royal Pegasus Day Guards towed the chariot across the sky as Canterlot and Mount Epona shrank into the northern horizon. Inside, a young white wolf started awake and crouched on his belly with eyes squeezed shut and teeth gritted against the wind, saddlebags thumping against his sides, his toe-claws digging into the floorboards as the chariot sped south. He shook away the increasingly familiar nightmare as the chariot flew along the safe routes around Canterlot, a memory of warm water and a soft smile and those words. Who knows? You might learn to like it. H

Time and Again

Time and Again “I have called you gentlemen of the press here into my home for a reason,” the aged Professor said to the three reporters before him as he paced back and forth before a large, unidentifiable sheet-covered object that sat against the wall of the Victorian-era house. A faint green glow escaped from under the sheet. Whatever it covered, it reached almost to the ceiling, and a faint humming it made told them that it was powered in some way. Then the Professor spoke again, calling their attention back to him. “I wish for you to be the first people outside of my wife and myself,” he indicated an Asian woman s

Abbott and Costello in 'Playing the Ponies'

(We open on our two 'heroes' leaving their lunch at Sugarcube Corner.) BUD: Now don't you speak to me! Don't you try to excuse this! Here we are, stranded in another country, the only two human beings for a thousand miles in any direction! And this is all because you bought a farm off of a couple of crooks, and they didn't even own it. LOU: Aw, how was I supposed to know they were crooked? Those two unicycles sang real nice too. BUD: How could you tell?!? They were named Flim and Flam, ya dope! And its 'unicorns', not 'unicycles'. I wanted to make sure that you didn't lose your inheritance to some smooth-talking crook. LOU: Well, I didn't

“YIPE!” Ardi yelped as the sharp steel drove through his thick fur and into the cringing flesh beneath. “Hold still! Wolf, if you weren’t such a fidgety foal, this would have all been finished an hour ago!” Rarity worked along his side with some cloth, a pattern, and more of those blasted needles. Another sharp pain bit. He drew breath to yelp. Rarity’s horn glowed as a purple aura appeared along his muzzle, clamping it shut. “Oh, you are NOT howling in my ear again! Sweetie fusses less when she goes to the dentist!” “She probably doesn’t get stuck with half a hundred needles.R

Tales from Equestria: Apple and Oranges

Apple & Oranges by Ardashir Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria… “Here’s your address, Miss; Seven-one-five Park Street.” Applejack looked up at the three-and-a-half-story brownstone before her; it seemed smaller than she remembered it. Ah was just a filly back then. Set in one of Manehattan’s classier neighborhoods near Central Park, she would normally have felt a little self-conscious about standing out here. She swallowed, straightened the Rarity-original semi-formal dress, made sure of her Rarity-makeover mane – dang, wish Ah had ma hat, I miss it – and stepped down from the bl

Epilogue: Ponyville Above Ponyville, Celestia’s sun sank towards Red Dragon Peak and the Everfree; Weather Patrol pegasi moved clouds in preparation for tomorrow’s scheduled rain. Even at altitude, they could hear the party sounds coming from Sugarcube Corner. Especially Vinyl Scratch’s magically-amplified “Bass Cannon”. “Another party, Pinkie?” Twilight neighed over the blasting music. “What about yesterday?” “That was the ‘Welcome to Ponyville Ardi’ party,” the bouncing pink earth pony bubbled as she balanced another plate of cupcakes on her poofy mane. “

Wolf in Pony's Clothing Epilogue 2

Epilogue: Canterlot A very odd procession made its way into the Sun Palace. A small herd of frightened and wary ponies, oddly so given that they were entering the castle of their Princesses. Onlookers might not have noticed anything very special about them, aside from the bulging saddlebags they bore, bags that occasionally squirmed, and the fact that every single one of them had golden eyes, very unusual among ponies. A few of Luna’s Night Guards accompanied them, blinking as the mid-afternoon sun came through their smoked-glass goggles. All save for three in the lead. Prince Blueblood stumbled along. Filth stained his fetlocks and s

Epilogue: Stalliongrad In the forests around Stalliongrad between the Crystal Empire and the Griffin Lands, far enough north that the snow lay on the ground for eight months of the year and Celestia’s sun and Luna’s moon sometimes stayed in the sky for days or weeks rather than hours, a large pack of wolves faced a returned outcast and a stranger. The scarred pack Alpha stood before the rest, who looked on with tongue-lolling lupine grins of amusement as they listened to the young white wolf tell them of what he had seen and done in Equestria. Or an edited version, anyway. “And so after meeting the pony princesses, I retu

Day Seven: Will the Real Rarity Please Stand Up? “B-but Applejack and Rainbow Dash were after him,” Fluttershy quavered as she shivered on the cool stone floor of the Gala Hall, face buried in her fetlocks. “And the dragon… And Lotus from the Spa started with the jousting harness and how her family hunted down wolves around Stalliongrad…” Her voice tapered off into a whisper. Princess Celestia stretched her shining white wing over the butter-yellow pegasus, gave her a wing-hug. “Continue, Fluttershy.” “Ardi’s a nice wolf… But he’s scared of us…” She lif

Day Seven: And the Horseapples Hit the Fan [Then after We saw Rarity-pony go crazy in garden and talk to statue, We came back here, O Queen.] The Changeling scout – fresh out of the cocoon, like too many of the Hive – buzzed his wings in excitement as he reported his discovery to Queen Vespid through pheromone scents and empathic link. His wings stuck out through rips in the Canterlot sewer-worker’s uniform he wore; Vespid kept some around for when her Changelings had to wander through the drains and tunnels beneath the city in pony form. His wings whirred in the rank-smelling air of the storm drain. [So now We go take Rari

Day Six Part Three: Where is Rarity? Rarity looked out her hotel window at the brick-and-brownstone of Manehattan beneath Luna’s moon. Equestria’s largest city – so different from Ponyville or even Canterlot, but in some ways even more of a fit for her. Three days in the Big Apple itself, three days of wining and dining, schmoozing and smoozing with the House of Finest Silk, all building up to the presentation before Finest Silk herself! Rarity couldn’t ever remember working harder in her life. Even the dresses she’d made for her friends for their first Grand Galloping Gala, both the originals and the ones they

Day Six: The Burning Queen The dragon’s parting words seemed to constantly repeat in Ardi’s ears all the way back to Ponyville. “He wasn’t being merciful,” he whimpered under his breath. Fluttershy set a comforting wing over his withers, the feathers rustling against the Rarity-suit’s coat. The wolf ignored it to say, “He’s going to let your friends give me to the Burning Queen and Nightmare Moon. Because they’ll do something even worse to me than a dragon could think of!” “Oh, Ardi,” Fluttershy shook her head and leaned in to whisper, “I keep telling you, Princess
