An alien crash lands in Equestria. It calls itself human.
The Princesses find an alien creature barely clinging to life at the scene of a terrifying crash. Can the Combined Power of the Elements of Harmony save it, or more importantly, should they save it? Will the arrival of this strange creature tear Equestria apart?
A young changeling is separated from his hive, and must blend in and survive among the ponies of Equestria.
Young Nictis had one dream: to serve his hive by becoming an Infiltrator, the most vital and vaunted role a changeling could aspire to. To hide in plain sight among the other species, blending in, while gathering the vital emotional energies that fueled his people. Few were deemed worthy of the dangerous job. He was one of the few nymphs selected for training, in the hopes that one of them would develop the skills needed to be entrusted with such a treacherous task.
But when a training expedition ends in tragedy, Nictis finds himself thrust into the role not to serve his hive and people, but to preserve his own life. Separated from the hive, alone, he must put what little training he has to the test. He must blend in with the hive's greatest source of food, and its most dangerous enemy: the ponies of Equestria.
(This story takes place in the same continuity as Fragments, but stands on its own. Reading that story isn't necessary for this one.)
A human is off to a rough start when Fluttershy finds him eating one of her chickens, and breaks his arm. Can Derpy and the human convince Ponyville to give him a second chance?
When Fluttershy finds a human in her backyard trying to eat one of her chickens, she and a majority of the residents of Ponyville only want this dangerous creature as far away from their town as possible.
After a less than stellar first impression, Derpy Hooves and the human struggle to quell the rumors surrounding his diet, and convince the townsfolk that he's harmless.
Will the human be able to make himself meek enough to coexist? Or will he be driven out of town with torches and pitchforks?
Each chapter is told from the perspective of a different pony.
What is it like to be a Gary-Stu? And what happens if you were one for years, only to change into a normal pony? How would those who once mindlessly "loved" you react?
oOo
Help me, please.
I was once human. Now, somehow, someway, I'm a fucking black and red Alicorn in Ponyville. I know I'm panicky, an admitted asshole, and mildly anti-social but… this is wrong.
It started with parties and offers to be in my 'herd'... but every week I have to deal with horrible monsters that only I can defeat and if I'm not careful, I'll be molested or even raped.
Ponies are mindlessly and almost slavishly in love with me despite how I treat them, despite the devastation my presence seems to bring.
Someone, anyone, please help me. My life is a living hell.
I’m a Gary-Stu.
oOo
If you downvote, please do tell me why! I can't fix problems I don't know about!

A long forgotten element has been brought back, but for better or for worse?
Equestria has long been known as the land of ponies. However, the name of Equestria is misleading. For far too long, a certain element has been missing from the world. And now, that element has been brought back. But for better or for worse?
Due to site updates resulting in a more restrictive genre listing, I am listing here that on top of the three genres the story is listed under, the story also contains prominent elements of Dark, Tragedy, Sad, Drama, and Adventure.
Also, to set the record straight, this story begins after the end of Season 2, but before Season 3. Therefore, any plot elements from future episodes that may conflict with the plot of this story is effectively noncanon.
The Piano Man is free, but must now recover from his captivity and adjust to life in Equestria.
The Piano Man has spent the last month in captivity, forced to play the piano as part of The Great and Powerful Trixie's traveling show. Now he's free, and recovering under the care of the Equestrian monarchy while Trixie awaits trial for her crimes. All is not well, however. The Piano Man has a long road of recovery ahead, and all the time he must compete with overbearing carers, his own mental trauma, and even discrimination from members of Equestria's unicorn supremacist subculture.
This story is the kinda(can't stress that part enough) better-written sequel to 'The Piano Man'. Because the first story involved some rather dark scenes, I have included a helpful catch-up in the first chapter - so if you have no interest in reading a dark story, then you can ignore the first piece and skip straight ahead to this one. 'The Piano Man: Act II' is most certainly not a dark story, and neither is it sad. The sad tag is in place for scenes in which I reference the previous installment, and nothing else.
The absolutely amazing cover image was created by the even more amazing WIL_I_ZIN, (deviantART) who is just... just awesome, for helping out.
When a magical portal spits out a enraged being, Twilight Sparkle and her friends discover a world being attacked by... them? Now Equestria must go to war and save humanity and its allies before it's too late.
A wondrous portal of light and colors open in Ponyville, one would think it brought good tidings.
They were wrong.
A human, pushed to the brink of madness and misery, attacks the Elements of Harmony. A war, unknown and uncomprehending, being waged for the survival of one species. A power hungry Alicorn setting her sights on new lands.
Now all of Equestria and her people find themselves teetering on the edge of war, war so uncompromising and ruthless against an enemy they all know.
Themselves.
Darkness begins to settle across the entire world, old enemies setting aside their differences for mutual survival.
Now is the time to fight... Now is the time to show the mad so called goddess that they will not bow to her... Now is the time to show Harmony as it is meant to be seen...
The Tyrant has no idea what she has unleashed... But then again... Neither do they.

Hello, all who see this, it is my displeasure to inform you that RedSkin has resigned from Spectrum and, as a part of an agreement, the original version is here for everyone to see unaltered. We, the remaining members of the Spectrum crew, are going to continue things in a new version that will be coming soon.
Please be patient with us as we try to adjust to this period.
Update all, here is the link to the new version SPECTRUM.

A human contemplates suicide after coming to Equestria.
As I sit on this branch, looking at the town through the mangled, black branches, I began thinking about why I came here. About everything I left behind on Earth.
John is alone on this world and has not seen a single soul in a long time. His only companions have been the ghosts only he can hear. Driven by guilt, he goes from town to town, searching and doing the only thing he can do:
Give the dead their final rest.
Discord once gave him a gift. It was given in grief. John has yet to understand what this gift means. He has lost track of time and madness and sanity wage a constant war in his mind.
For John, the greatest terror in his heart is facing the Goddesses.
You have been in Equestria for sometime now, and even though most hate you, you find peace with the princess. Until Celestia proposes something you must refuse.
Edit: Good HiE list approved
A/N Hi guys, this is just a short story I wrote in about an hour, HOPE YOU ENJOY! (I'd like to thank everyone who likes this, thanks for getting it featured)
You have lived in Equestria for some time now, around five or so years. You never meant to come here it just kinda happened. The first few months were a living hell for you, you were attacked because most thought you were a monster. This continued until you were captured by the Royal Guard and brought to meet Celestia and Luna. You explained your situation and over time you became friends, but that didn't stop the fact that you were ridiculed and attacked whenever you left the castle, and so in time you became content with staying within the confines of the castle. But one day guards showed up to your room and put you in chains...
And there came a day unlike any other. A day when Equestria needed to be avenged.
'To whoever gets this message, we're in desperate need of help.'
'Equestria...Equestria is on the brink of being destroyed. Sombra, Tirek and many other villains are taking over our world. The Ambassadors of Harmony are nowhere to be found and Celestia and Luna...Faust, Celestia and Luna. I don't know who you are and I don't care, just as long as you can save us. And if you can't do that, then at the very least...'
The story of a human dealing with tiny, tiny little horse/pony sun princesses that fit in his palm and cause a ruckus in his precarious life. A Pony/Princess on Earth story.
So you know how that whole My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic show is going on? You know, the show for little kids that's basically a marketing ploy for toys?
Well, I found one of those toys while I was walking. It had colorful hair, a white coat, wings, and a horn. I wanted to give it to my sister as a gift.
Then apparently the toy is possessed by demons who claim to be Princess Celestia from the show. Either that or the real Princess Celestia figured out how to cross the divide between dimensions and just likes to visit me and cause problems in a body that fits in my hand.
Whatever the case may be, just remind me that I need to call my therapist later.
A Pony on Earth story that started with a conversation about Toy Story and this picture.
Stark has been subjected to some weird things in the course of his life, ever since he donned the iron mantle. Monsters, aliens and intergalactic tv show hosts are just part of the job when you're a hero. But in the peaceful land of Equestria, he will have to face his greatest challenge yet. For he will have to make a choice...and no matter what he chooses, someone is doomed. But what can you do, when you're only a man?
Iron man will once again be based on my favorites versions combined, so expect EMH and more of the cartoon versions than the comics or movies. Same goes for the villain. Gonna be a bit more light hearted that other stories, so expect Tony to be more funny than cynical (though he will be that).
An injury from a fire at work lands you in the hospital, and Redheart nurses you back to health.
You and Nurse Redheart are still deeply in love! A few weeks have passed since you cared for her, during her cold. Now, after a fire breaks out at work, you suffer a rather painful injury, while helping lead a few of your coworkers to safety.
You awake in Ponyville Heart, where Nurse Redheart insists on caring for you as you begin your recovery. The thought of nearly losing you leaves her feeling insecure, causing her to start spending even more time at the hospital, so she can stay by your side. This makes you glad you're staying in a room all to yourself. One that she can share with you.
How will things go as you are looking at spending a few weeks in the hospital? Only time will tell as you both are there for each other, during this difficult time.
*Warning: This story features explicit sexual content between a human and a pony. This story is also filled with tender romance, and plenty of daww moments.
