Anon's dead, apparently, and Death has come to claim his soul. There's just one problem: he doesn't want to go. And there's nothing Death can do to make him.

In a world where ponies and humans coexist in what can hardly be classified as harmony, Canterlot's daily regime is interrupted when one of these controversial creatures falls out of the sky and, to his surprise, doesn't die. This man seems to be the same as the rest, and calls himself "George Trestale". However, through a complete accident, George discovers he's developed magical abilities far beyond anything he could imagine. Unfortunately for him, almost none of them work correctly, and on top of that, he has no idea who he is or where he came from.

Thinking himself to be a god, and wanted by Celestia on the sole pretense of being human, our main character is tasked with running from the authorities, finding out what sort of power he's supposed to have, and most importantly, discovering who on earth he even is. Such begins the story of George Trestale, the unluckiest "god" in Equestria.

Rated Teen for some violence and language.

~ Edit From the Future! ~
This was my first remotely successful story, and as a result it's not exactly all that good, nor is it representative of my current writing ability. You can of course read it if you want, just expect things to be somewhat sloppily executed.

A damaged robot pony, unlike anything ever seen in pre-industrial Equestria, is found in the orchard. Before it collapses, it says only two words: "Twilight Sparkle..."

Twilight fixes the mechanical mare and gives her a new directive: "Make friends." Now a robot must learn what it takes to be a good friend and, while she's at it, what it means to live...

My name is Lance. I was a young student who wanted to become a Graphic artist and also create characters for video games and comic books. One thing that I did not realize though is that I would soon become one of the favorite characters I would like to draw.

I went to a small anime convention in Los Angeles dressed up as the main character from Azure Striker Gunvolt. A 14 year old Adept that had control over lightning based powers. However, everything was going just fine until I ran into a merchant that resembled Xur from Destiny that was offering me something I couldn't refuse. Like the unknowing idiot I was then, I purchased what he offered me.

Next thing I knew, I wake up in a city called Maretropolis, where I was found by my breezie friend Lumen and another pony that fills me in on where I am. Now I'm in a world filled with ponies, magic, powers, and heroes. However, if they see me as one is another story

A Displaced story that is set in the universe of the Power Ponies. Also considered as an Azure Striker Gunvolt Crossover since the main character is dressed as GV.

One day you were with a friend, talking about MLP and how amazing it is. But then you start talking about how most of the stuff, not just Pinkie Pie, but most of the stuff in the place makes no sense worth a damn. Then you keep questioning things until you find yourself forced through some magic portal to see a bunch of angry ponies and princesses(and a very happy Discord) and have a feeling that your going to have to explain a lot of things...but mainly question and down right say that some things make no sense.

This is my first one shot, so any comments will be accepted. This is based on my conversations with family and friends about most things in FIM that makes no sense worth the life of me. So...if you don't want to see everypony rage at someone telling them 'this doesn't make any sense' then don't read this. But this is not a troll fic, I just needed to do this and frankly, why would I do something silly like that?

Mathew Reese was just your average guy. He lived in a small town with his adoptive father, had a circle of friends, loved the natural beauty of the world, and had just started to take his first steps into becoming an independent.

All of that changed the day that two powerful beings combined their magic to seal away a great evil. Now Mathew is trapped on Equus as the sole human the lands have ever encountered. Everything he’s ever known has become null and void as he tries to make sense of his new life.

Follow Mathew on his journey for answers through the land of Equestria and learn the truth behind one of its most notorious evils… Nightmare Moon.

This story now has a sequel. Continue this exciting tale in Shadows Within the Heart!

Shadows Within the Light was my very first fic. Expect a degree of amateur writing. I have put this story on my list to rework it at a later date so that I can take what I've learned to make this story better. Until then, I hope you enjoy my little tale because it has been said that it's a hidden gem.

Be sure to leave constructive criticism as well. I welcome it and it will help me to improve.

A Displaced Story

Princess Luna. The true goddess of the night. It is an honor for me to serve her demurely and be in her majestic and glorious presence.

If she does command me to slay her sister, I would do so without even a second thought. If she does command me to call her Nightmare Moon, I would do so with a smile on my face and eliminate everyone who dared to call her differently. If she does ask me to take over Equestria, when I would gather my strongest forces to do so with a passionate fire in my heart.

And yet I… failed. I disappointed her which led to her imprisonment. I couldn’t do anything to stop that retched sun moving fraud.

But Princess Luna is coming back. The Summer Sun Celebration draws near and I will be ready. I will serve her once again so she can claim her rightful throne and to finally dethrone that witch of a sister that claims all the glory and fame for herself.

My name is Fenrich. Loyal servant and right hand of the great bringer of the night, Princess Luna. She shall rise once again and her name will be known in the farthest corners of Equus.

All is for my Princess.
