In the aftermath of Princess Luna’s transformation into Nightmare Moon, the former capital of Equestria, the Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters has been destroyed. The site has now become consumed by the Everfree forest and the ground scarred with bad memories. Thus, Princess Celestia calls for architects across Equestria and gathers a team. Each of these mares and colts have their own ideas and strengths, and each have their own nightmares and flaws. In the wake of the devastating civil war between Nightmare Moon and Princess Celestia, this is the tale of how Canterlot, palace, city and home, was built.

Family. To the ponies of Sweet Apple Acres, to Applejack, there's nothing more important. But what does it mean to be family? Applejack's parents are finally returning home, but will it be the reunion she's always dreamed, will she finally receive answers to questions that have plagued her since youth? Or will her dream become a nightmare, fueled by fear of what those answers might be?

*Sex tag added for adult situations, remarks, humor, etc.*

Princess Luna has returned from her 1000 year banishment on the moon. Now she must learn to cope with the changes that have occurred during her absence, while dealing with the guilt and regret from her past. In an effort to redeem herself, she tries to right her past wrongs and show the ponies of Equestria that she is no longer the evil nightmare that scared them for centuries.

During her period of repentence she rediscovers one particular group of ponies that was hit the hardest when she turned into Nightmare Moon, the 13th Infantry Division. They had pledged their loyalty to her and were one of the most elite fighting units in the entire Equestrian army. Now, their only claim to fame is their past and being the biggest joke in the military. A place for misfits and undesirable soldiers, as well as punished officers. Can the newly returned princess redeem herself and the division that devoted itself to her? Or will Princess Luna fall back into the open arms of sorrow and despair?

A huge thanks to both of you!

“What the hell?” he muttered. “What happened? He cautiously opened his eyes again.
“Oh…”
He wasn’t in his room.
“Oh…” Soarin mumbled again, looking down at the bed beneath him.
He wasn’t in his bed.
“Oh my…” He said, his eyes snapping open as his foggy brain put two and two together.

After being discharged from the Wonderbolts and spending an interesting night with a certain rainbow-maned Pegasus, Soarin moves into a new career, Weather Control.

He has no idea what he's in for.

Now has a sequel.

A symbol falls, and what it stands for soon follows.
When devastating events occur, shattering the hearts and minds of ponies everywhere, many will have their spirits tested, their resolve questioned.
Their world torn asunder, and with the threat of a cosmic horror, a select few souls will traverse a universe very different to the one they know, and one where the symbols they stand for do not exist.
And no single pony will be able to restore harmony to their world.

But they will never be alone.

Nothing is forever.

A long time ago, even before Equestria was founded, there lived 2 living beings. One was an Alicorn, the other a Changeling. The first one was living the good life in the Palace of Creation and this together with her sisters, brother and her mother, the Almighty Fausticorn. But she was unhappy. Why you ask? Well, we can't spoil the story, now can we?

The Changeling was not so fortunate. After running away from her father's hive with 20 Changelings, she was now trying to survive. She needed love to survive, but most importantly, she needed a friend to be there for her.

Fate had some plans for them.

(They are foals.)

This story is written in the Team Awesome universe of Bonaxor and the story is based on a comic. In the comic they are foals, so they are also foals in my story. There are a few rules, which the creator of the comic told me to follow, and which I cannot break.

1. Ponies are afraid of Alicorns. They see them as monsters that can destroy the world.
2. Team Awesome never goes into town without a special disguise. It makes them look like other normal ponies.. just.. bigger.
- Celestia is a Unicorn in her disguise
- Luna is an Earth pony
- Dream (Nightmare Moon) is a Pegasus
- Discord a dragon
- Cadance is a pegasus

That are the two giant rules.

This will probably be a feel good story.

Sweetie Belle finally gets her Cutie mark, and it seems that everything is perfect. She soon finds out that nothing could be further from the truth.

Set a couple of years into the future.

im not one to spoil a story so ill keep this short and to the point. this is the story of the year that i met twilight sparkle.

Everypony is invited to the celestial sisters' grand Christmas Eve party, where Luna's encounter with a mistletoe and a sudden lavender mare causes quite a few risen eyebrows.

Pinkie Pie and Twilight perform a time experiment that goes horribly wrong, leaving Pinkie to experience a peculiar set of events.

I had this idea for quite a bit of time, and even wrote it out once before. I decided to rewrite it after a bunch of friendly folk in the Reddit Bronies steam chat urged me on. They should know I'm not quite a good writer. Oh well, enjoy!

Feedback is appreciated. This is meant to be a short fic and likely won't extend past 2-3 chapters. If I did something wrong, let me know.
