I'll never forget the day I first saw her. Never.
I mean you're thinkin' to yourself 'How'd somepony like you end up with somepony like her? When did this whole shebang start?' Well, that's what I'm gonna tell ya. And it's not the sort of thing you'd expect.
Okay, so there I was one day - wanderin' down a street, not really doin' anything when suddenly I hear this quiet sound, just barely loud enough for my ears to pick up. Sounded kinda like one of them violin things but deeper. At the time I thought it was a kinda neat sound - might make for a good sample to use in my next mix - so I go follow it, right

A/N I was actually trying to write more of Everypony Loves and watching the premiere episode of the third season when I came up with this. I only have one more chapter planned, TWO max. Unless this is really well received and after the ending people really want more I might consider it unless I can't think of a coherent way to continue it. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy it. I Loooove comments so let me know what you think. Also I'm sorry that Pinkie Pie's part wasn't as good, I'm not very good at writing for her, but I'm trying to improve! (yay)

a) Ghost
Where did the world once disappear
When we were praying for freedom
The light was blinding my eyes,
Then darkness came;
Was that the end…?
What waited were the graying walls
Lifeless city and kingdom
Is this the worth of my existence
Has nothing changed?
Am I alive and trapped in the death
Or dead and lost my afterlife
Was I ever anything else
Than these crippling chains around my neck
They say time had forgotten our life
Yet the scars are still fresh in my heart
Can't I just leave it b

Discord's POV:
Day after day, month after month it was always the same. Standing in that humiliating pose twenty-four-seven. Having school groups pass you by and carry on endlessly about how silly you look. You didn't even get a backscratcher! And dear Celestia, it was hot in there.
As you can tell, I was bored. Heck, I always was. On the other hoof, who wouldn't be? It was a horrible feat to be met with, was it not? The only passage out was if someponies argue right next to me, and that was my ticket to easy-on-out street.
Only problem?

Ponies with Tarja Turunen [Click here for the accompanying song] Where We Once Cantered
I'm watching the timeline
The tokens left of those days
There once was a time when
I still resembled myself
In those pictures
Younger me once sew
The blanket on which
Older me now sleeps
Drifts in the past
Where we once cantered
We had no fears, we had no cares
There we once cantered
When we were young, me and my friends
I've lived a full life
I've reaped and sown my own share
Cradle of children
Harvest born of first seeds
I remember how I saw them bloom
Grow full of life
And how they faded away
Left in the fields

Octavia went down to her breakfast table to see Vinyl Scratch eating some eggs.
"AH!"
"What?" Vinyl said through a mouthful of food.
"What are you doing in my house? Didn't I say you had to leave after last night?"
Vinyl laughed. "Man, I heard you trip over the cello. That was a pretty good use you had for it last night."
Octavia groaned. Why did she ever do that to her priceless cello? Vinyl always managed to bring out the worst in her.

#101) Why do so many bronies lie about their gender? So many (guys) pretend to be girls and it's weird. This one guy pretended he was a slutty girl pony so guys would sex roleplay with him and treat him nicer and flirt with him. Am I the only person who thinks this is creepy? You shouldn't lie about who you are, should you?
Answer: Of course you shouldn't lie about who you are. You should know everything about everyone. I don't befriend someone unless I know at least the following details: what their blood type is; where they grew up; if they have a history of heart failure in the family; when they started to walk; what their first word was

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

"No..." the Doctor said then spoke up. "But I believe we have established enough."
Growling, the Chancellor returned to his seat and sat down. The Doctor also sat down in silence. The judge looked at the blue mare. "Jury, how do you find the defendant?"

I barely took another step when I spotted a pink blur out of my eye. Before I could react, I was knocked off my hooves. Staring down at me was a bright pink pony, with an especially curly and bouncy mane. Once she opened her mouth, words spilled out.
"Sorry! I didn't mean to knock you over. I mean, cause I was so excited to find my friends that I had to get to them as fast as possible and show them my newest batch of cupcakes that I made with hot jalapeno sauce and- Hey, wait!" She stared cock-eyed at me. Then she made a long, drawn out gasp, and disappeared in another pink blur.

"Slender Mane was once like you or I," Zecora began, "A simple being, who lived a simple life. He was a wise zebra. A monk, who lived secluded in the mountains, and spent his days meditating in order to expand his mind. One day a visitor arrived from seemingly out of nowhere. The monk showed him hospitality. He gave him a place to sleep, and in the morning the visitor went on his way. It wasn't until days later that the monk noticed that the visitor had left a small box behind.

Sprinting through the trees, Rainbow noticed the Slenderpony off in the corner of the screen, but paid him no heed, and nopony else noticed him. "Ya think there's anything here?" she asked, pointing out a set of rusted metal containers.
"It doesn't look like it, but I'd check, just in case." Twilight said. Taking her friend's advice, Dash walked around the barrels, looking around.
"Here's one!" Dash quickly ran over and picked up the next note. "Let's take a look at this one... 'Always watches, No eyes?' That isn't even possible!" she snorted in laughter. Turning, she saw the Slenderpony a few barrels away from her... staring with his blank

Canterlot's silent, evening streets were not graced by the moon's rays, as a thick veil of storm clouds blocked it from view. The calm before the storm was chilling, the entire world holding its breath in anticipation of the first drop of rain.
And when it fell, it came in torrents, crashing over rooftops and spilling into overflowing gutters. A streak of lightning illuminated the entirety of the peaceful capital, the violent rumble of thunder following quickly on its heels.
However, the solitary pony ensconced within the Canterlot Palace archives paid no mind to the storm outside. She'd come to the archives on a mission; a mission of which

Life without death is a curse,
Death without a life is a crime.
Either one quick song or a never ending verse.
Luna, the princess of the night,
Will forever live on past each life,
To rule over darkness but never see the light.
Then there's the ruler of the day,
The all mighty Celestia, to which we pray.
The only one who has seen both the black and the white, but never the grey.
We can never understand their pain,
or do what would be right.
For every life they rule, will one day die in vain.
They've lived this long,
neither to die.
They put on a straight face in our presence to make us feel strong.
But we'll never unde

"Run. NOW!" Twilight shouted. The machine roared and lifted it two legs from the floor, the claws now extended straight in front. It then shot out another gout of fire and began to charge down the hall as its wheels moved. The ponies noticed how its tail was letting out even more steam.
The unicorn ran for the door at the other end of the stone hallway, her friends following her. When they made it to the heavy wooden door, Twilight Sparkle tried to push it op

Pupils stain red of rage
Starvation,murder, cruelty passed person to person
Hearts obliterated from the hate they recieve
It can recover,but it will never be the same
Like a scar of memories across your heart
Tears fall from innocent angels to fill oceans
Powerless to change the course of violence
Some says we are hardwired for violence
Are we all ticking time bombs ready to explode
Deactivate me then,
My trail of destruction haunts my existence
And my future hides from the monster that I am
Why most the angels perish
And why do the demons thrive
It's a topsy turvy world we live in
