As the Wheel Turns Snips and Snails were dripping sweat as they struggled to drag along the heavy wooden cart that dug into the ground. The cart plowed up the dirt and left a sizable trench in its wake. They looked at one another, tired and worn out from pulling the new tyrant of ponyville to the edge of the forcefield. They stopped for a moment to take a quick break. As soon as they had stopped, a glowing red whip snapped at their backsides from mid-air. "Pull you fools!" the whip snapped it at them twice more. "Somepony set off the magic forcefield and Trixie intends to punish them!" shouted Trixie as she prepared to whip her subjects o

It's Okay to be a Brony There are plenty of reasons why a guy would want to hide the fact that he is a brony. But one should not have to hide who they are because of what others will think. I came to this realization about a month ago. I am tired of hiding who I am, I'm a brony dammit, and proud of it! ------ The breath left my body as the fist drove hard into my stomach. My eyes crossed as I took a blow to the face. Now on my knees, I lifted my arms up in an attempt to shield myself from the brutal beating. I would have called for help, but they followed me from school. Why do people get bullied for being different or liking something t

Alterations Prologue Stirring. Moving. Awakening. This was a rare occurrence, it has happened only twice since the creation of Equestria. When too much evil gathers together, she appears. She is the balance. She stirs as she chooses her form. The power was weakening now, all throughout the world, all of it was waning, to make room for this new force. All throughout the world, power was weakening drastically, but nopony noticed. They weren't meant to notice. The energy would be gone and ponies would adapt, simply not attempt to do things they would normally be able to do. But it would not be gone forever, just long enough for her to

Ponyville Ghostbusters Chapter 2 It was a typical day the the Ponyville Ghostbusters Headquarters. Everypony was busy and hard at work. Tex and Riotfire were working on the Ecto-B vehicle. Tex, a tall black stallion with a perfectly styled brown mane, had been with the Ponyville Ghostbusters for the past 10 years. It was his life and he would not have it any other way. "I can't believe B blew a gasket." he said in a gruff voice. "I know you love it Tex, but B is an old car and it's going to have problems from time to time."  replied Riotfire. Riotfire was the mechanic here at the station, and was also Tex's oldest friend. Grease was us

Ponyville Ghostbusters: Chapter 1 1100 years ago The great General stood tall, watching his troops fight bravely against the ghostly enemies. His gold and blue uniform was covered in a transparent substance that had the same consistency as water but with a lighter blue tint. The Willowers had waged this war against them, and he would never rest until he and his fellow Equestrians had shown these bloodless abominations who truly ruled this land and that they would never stop defending it! He stood his ground as he was abruptly charged by three of them, he squinted his eyes to see them better. These things could drain their own colors and bl

Alterations Ch. 5 PinkieShy, AppleDash and Spike were sitting down having breakfast when Rarity walked through the door. Her eyes were bloodshot as if she had stayed up late. She had in fact stayed up late working on a secret project. "Goodmorning everypony!" she said cheerily. "Goodmorning." the three replied. Rarity smiled, "Girls, I think I have come up with a way to lift your spirits." she announced. AppleDash quickly replied, "Really? How?" Rarity chuckled at her friends' enthusiasm. She had come up with a great way to pass the time and it was always a great confidence booster for her. "Follow me and you shall find out." she told them w

Alterations Chapter 4 As it turned out, it wasn't very hard for the ponies to find their favorite treats at all. They liked everything (since they had taste buds for two they rarely came across anything they wouldn't like). The Cakes let them eat as much as they wanted, since they felt so bad for the girls. The Spa-treatment was nice as well (AppleDash was opposed to it at first but eventually she came around). PinkieShy couldn't wait to get started, but as soon as it did her face distorted from a happy grin to a look of utter devastation. She had stayed that way throughout the entire visit, and once she even cried when asked how she wanted

Alterations Chapter 3 Despite being so high in the air, Rainbow and Celestia had to quickly turns their heads away from the bright flash of light. The two looked at each other, then back to where the light came from. When the light faded away, Rainbow looked to her friends to see if they were okay. They were all looking to where Twilight was standing. She scanned all over but didn't see her friend. Where could she be? She looked back to where Twilight should have been standing, but saw something new. A strange gray creature. That was odd, Rainbow thought. Where was Twilight? Then, as the bright pure blue eyes flashed, the realization came ru

Alterations Chapter 2 Sure, Twilight had been acting a bit strange, there were some obvious signs, but her friends just brushed them off. For one, she would never use their names, she would simply address whoever she was looking at. She had also seemed distant lately, her gaze always drilling past whatever she was looking at. On top of that, she would be seen at some odd places around town close to Sugarcube Corner. But no pony ever thought anything of it, she was their friend after all. ------ In the land of Similaria, Chrysalis stood in the dank, dark, dungeons of her castle looking into a pool of  water. She gazed into the sparkling gre

Alterations Chapter 1 "Good morning everypony! Octavia here for the early morning Scratch N Tavi radio show, with my co-host Scratch." "Ugh, I had to get up early for this show. It's like way earlier than usual." "Well, good news is that you can just sit there and play music. We will have the news later." "Great!" What followed was the sound of a record scratching against a needle. "- I've been waiting, for the taking, of my-" Spike let his hand slink down from the cold, metallic snooze button of his alarm clock as he sat up. He stretched his arms out wide, and let out a big dragon sized yawn. Well, for a dragon as big as Spike anyway.
