This was something I wrote as the author and co-writer in Fanfiction.net almost a decade ago. The time line is after season 4 and the 1st EqG movie.

"The first time I came back, I thought it was a miracle. By the fifth or sixth time, I knew it was a curse."

Death is a reasonable fear, but it is also a constant reassurance. A promise that no matter how bad things get, they will one day end.

That promise was broken, leaving Rainbow Dash to pay the cost.

A very last minute entry for the 2024 SciFi Contest III.

Special thanks to ScreamQueen and Rb for prereading and valuable feedback.

General content warning: Some depictions of blood, death, and debilitating injuries, but no graphic descriptions. Some existential horror.

This story is a sequel to The Adventures of Spider-Man Season 1

After a few stressful months, Peter has now found his place as the new Defender of Equestria. With his new friends now aware of his dual identity as Spider-Man, Peter now feels more at home. Not only that, but it appears as if love might be in the air

But the threats aren't over yet, as old foes return once more to push our heroes to their limit. And will force Peter to show more of his hidden nature.

My parents named me Winter Breeze. They gave me anything I needed to be a successful pony. However, I'm not living the life my parents planned for me. Far from it.

I'm living my own dreams. I have my own destiny. Or...so I thought. Then I met you and I knew that all my previous dreams, my previous destiny, no longer mattered. All that mattered was making you mine. And I'll do absolutely anything to make that happen...

This story is a rewrite of my old story, Cold. My current editor and I agreed to update the story a bit, and there are going to be quite a few changes to the story anyway, so I figured I'd keep the old one for the memories, and keep the original to show how far I've come. Art drawn by my editor.

It has been a few years since Twilight and her friends gave the Elements of Harmony to the Tree. They have been through so many adventures together with and without the Elements. Twilight knew, that even without the Elements, she and her friends would be able to overcome whatever was thrown at them. Or so she thought…

"A troubled young man commits suicide and wakes up as a pony in a world of friendship, magic, and technicolor equines. He encounters a lavender alicorn who has been tasked alongside her friends with solving his “friendship problem”. Unfortunately, he sees no hope for himself in the fragile affairs of deep interpersonal relationships and wants nothing more than to live a better life in his new world, one without the “magic of friendship”. However, his incompatibility with a world founded on friendship means that he must rely on others, and, in doing so, he will learn what it means to have true friendship."

This is my first time posting on here (and my first non-short story/fanfiction). Hope you enjoy!

When one world is made. Alternates exist. One happens to be the world of DemiQuestria. Where a Princess named DemiCelestia moves the Sun and Moon. A certain Plusle comes and goes in this world and yet... what does he do when not with the others of the Mane, or well, Demi 6? Is he lazing about or is he actually going to go do something about the rising issues he may have unintentionally created?

This story is a sequel to Our Name Across The Multiverse: 10 years later

Moving forward isn't easy sometimes; Sometimes, you just need a little help from others. Others who will help you find your spark. The spark to start over, the spark to live, the spark to keep going...a spark that will never burn out within the darkness...
And that's why Rainbow Spark will help four poor souls who are suffering by the hands of a evil being, who goes by many names. Names like Reader, Destiny, Watcher, Writer, and now as Fayth.
Spark, along with different versions of the mane six, Starlight and Sunset, will show Fayth that even if she can rewrite someone's story to become a sad and awful bad ending, it can still be rewritten into something happier—a happier ending—something that will make the poor souls she has tormented happy again.
...all it takes is just a spark. A different kind of spark. The spark that resides in the hearts of all.
...Friendship.

Marble Pie was born with a spark of ingenuity that couldn't be found anyplace else. She used this gift to create a machine. A machine that walks on two legs, a mech. It is an impressive creation of steel and magic, and it would never see the light of day.

As if she would let those 'outsiders' steal one of her creations again. All that the ponies outside of her family did was judge and steal. It was best not to talk to them. Especially when she couldn't even meet their eyes with the pop rocks bubbling in her stomach. Unfortunately, three new arrivals might change that.

One is a pony, arriving fresh to the isolated town of Rockville with a penchant for fairy tales. The other, a wave of mechanical terrors with unknown intentions but terrible intent. And the last, a pile of ancient dragon bones speaking to her in binary and text. He offers power beyond her own, and a way to help combat this threat. However, his past remains a mystery, and his methods are... unorthodox. When an ancient evil is swarming the countryside, there is one fact that remains startingly true.

It's nice to have a little more firepower.
