Magenta eyes frantically scanned the water which had grown calm and held a surface a smooth as glass. Fortunately for the rainbow maned pegasus, Lake Murgese was a fresh water lake that was clear enough to almost see through to the bottom. Despite this fact, she struggled feverishly to find her friend beneath the water. As her worry mounted, she flew high into the air and dive bombed for the surface below, taking in a deep breath before plunging beneath the water.
She opened her eyes and took in the blurry view of the clear lake as she swam deeper and deeper for any sign of Sonic. As the subtle sounds of being submerged echoed in her ears, s

The Simple Life Chapter 5Hooves ground into the dirt, tails flipped back and forth anxiously, the crowds around the starting line cheered as their friends and family members of the inhabitants of the small town of Ponyville took their positions on the starting line. With the Wonderbolt cadets partaking in the race there were considerably more racers than normal but Spitfire accommodated by placing her recruits in formation behind the regular entries, much to the chagrin of Lighting Dust and Fleetfoot.The Simple Life Chapter 5 by *gunflame345
As the racers all made final stretches and readied themselves, a grey earth pony in a black and white striped shirt with a whistle made his way to side of the of the s

The Simple Life Chapter 4The late Filthy Rich’s study seemed to find itself quickly becoming overcrowded as ponies from near and far began to filter in. Many were business partners but there were a few longtime friends that had been invited, and they all began to fill the room and take up seats behind the front that had reserved seating. Seated front and center before Legal Eagle, her father’s personal lawyer, was Diamond Tiara. To her left sat Gold Digger and on her right was still a vacant seat for the last esteemed guest who Diamond Tiara didn’t know. Cherilee had taken to standing in the back since she technically wasn’t invited and foundThe Simple Life Chapter 4 by *gunflame345

The Simple Life Chapter 3Cherilee could not believe just how much Ponyville was all aflutter with excitement at the upcoming Running of the Leaves set to take place in just a few days. It seemed as if everypony could not stop talking about who would be running it this year. Last year there was quite the commotion caused by two of the small town's most competitive rivals Rainbow Dash racing Applejack, but this year was poised to make that an easily forgettable memory. Not only was Luna, the once Princess turned commoner set to attend, but Spitfire, Captain of the Wonderbolts, as well as Soarin’, their famed flying ace were set to attend, and they were bringing tThe Simple Life Chapter 3 by *gunflame345

The Simple Life Chapter 2Spitfire sat at her desk with her head buried in her fore hooves as she let out a long frustrated sigh. It was her first real day back on the job since the battle with the Yellow Devil, or Shadow, as she had come to find out his real name. She glanced over at her left only to see a large stack of Wonderbolt posters with her face plastered across them sitting in a tray labeled 'inbox,' an empty tray to her right labeled 'outbox,' and an ink stamp lying in between them. She knew that it was an important part of her job and autographed the posters, especially since, in light of their actions in the war, it generated a good deal of revenue, but hThe Simple Life Chapter 2 by *gunflame345

The Simple Life Chapter 1Luna was slowly roused from her light slumber by the quick change in momentum, forcing her lurch forward slightly as opposed to being gently rocked by steady travel on board the train. The locomotive hissed loudly as it applied its steam brakes. She turned her attention to glass window her head rested upon and found herself to be looking at the small rustic train station of Ponyville. It varied greatly from Canterlot Station's magnificence, but it was not without its sleepy, small town charm. She stretched her neck and shoulders as she rose from her seat and made her through the train cabin to the doorway, ignoring all of the inquisitive, acThe Simple Life Chapter 1 by *gunflame345

A New Dawn Chapter 25Sonic and Rainbow Dash hurtled through space towards the planet seeking desperately to halt this deadly gambit the Doctor had played. It wasn’t long before they had caught up with Metal Sonic, who had a fist buried deep into one of the warheads, yanking out wires and components before leaping away and watching the large rocket erupt in a small explosion into scrap.A New Dawn Chapter 25 by *gunflame345

“What can I say Shadow?” Sonic smiled back at him. “He wanted to be on the winning team.”
“Wow Sonic, Your definition of winning has changed over the years.” Shadow shot back.

A New Dawn Chapter 23Shadow landed in front of Sonic and Rainbow Dash, bringing his hands together and outstretching his palms to crack his knuckles. He then began to massage his right shoulder with his left and as he rotated his right arm in circular motion.A New Dawn Chapter 23 by *gunflame345
“I’m going high,” Sonic informed the Rainbow Dash.
“Then I’ll hit ‘em low,” she confirmed.
“Oh good, you gotta plan, hope it works out for ya,” Shadow said confidently, before his face twisted into a mischievous grin. “Let’s start this party with a bang!” he yelled out as he gathered energy in his right hand and hurled a supercharged

A New Dawn Chapter 22Shattered glass, rocks, and debris were scattered about as a sonic boom erupted in the streets of Baltimare as Shadow flew towards Sonic. His right hand cocked back, and his fist balled tightly as he closed the gap between himself and his adversary in the blink of an eye and yelled as he unloaded his attack.A New Dawn Chapter 22 by *gunflame345
Sonic grinned as he rolled his right shoulder back, letting Shadow’s attack sail past him harmlessly and exposing his entire body for a counter-attack. Sonic fired off a punch of his own, aimed at Shadow’s unprotected jaw. However, Shadow saw his attack, blocked by raising his left elbow and letting the blow strike his forear

“Oh? What are you gonna do, beat me up with cupcakes and rainbows?” the monster replied with a grin, casually walking closer. “My name is Shadow, and you haven’t even begun to see the ‘atrocities’ I can commit.”
“You will stop!” Celestia shot back at Shadow’s threat of death and destruction. She knew this would not end without violence but she knew that he
