    • Chapter 32 Cover
      by Starscribe — They weren’t all here this time. Fluttershy refused to hear about leaving medical, and obviously Pinkie wouldn’t be able to join them. That meant only the three of them gathered together around the table meant to hold all seven, with Spike’s report in front of them and two prominent empty seats.“You’ve both seen it,” Spike said, as soon as they’d finished with awkward progress reports. Hydroponics was coming along with more Geneseed, and there was still almost a full day before Spike’s…
    • Chapter 82 Cover
      by Starscribe — Attempt Twilight’s Plan. 94% Spike barely felt any doubt in his mind about what he had to do next. Cozy’s dominion might seem overwhelming, but they weren’t out yet. That pony was so confident they’d been out mastered that she didn’t seem to care to watch them here in medical.Her loss. I’m going to teach that pony to threaten my friends.“Are you sure about this?” Fluttershy asked, as he stomped over to the medical waste disposal and started removing screws. Of course none of the spare parts…
    • Chapter 67 Cover
      by Starscribe — If Apple Bloom isn’t contagious, have her investigate the contingency 41%Twilight woke in the middle of the night, to the unmistakable rumble of a hydrogen igniter. But the time she’d darted out of bed, she could feel the ground shaking all around her. She darted out the airlock, waiting the painful seconds it took to cycle, and emerged just in time to see the distant purple glow of the Prospector as it rumbled up into the sky.She considered briefly whether or not she should try to teleport aboard and…
    • Epilogue Cover
      by Starscribe — The True-Myth Club had rented out the entire Lilycove convention hall. No one made fun of Lane's costume as she glided through the dealer room, tablet under one arm. Her outfit was as pink as the tail trailing behind her. Keeping the damn thing while she was human amounted to nearly six feet of furry, mischievous fluff, but at least she'd cut a hole for it this time. Maybe the leader of one of the world's largest teams should dress with a little more dignity, but that word had barely even…
    • Chapter 28 Cover
      by Starscribe — Balanced Production 85%Twilight almost never visited Hydroponics. But now that she wandered between the rows of identical racks, surrounded by the first green and growing things she’d seen in months, she wished she’d come back more often. The system was mostly automated, with carefully measured spurts of water and precise modulation of the lights from the grow lamps.Per her instructions, half of the trays were filled only with a reddish green slurry, a paste that looked nothing at all like food and…
    • Chapter 44 Cover
      by Starscribe — Set up a shelter in the cargo bay and deal with the problem later 81% “That’s exactly right,” Twilight agreed. “I know what to do. Order you to keep running. Fluttershy, get that shelter ready! We’re all going!”“Ain’t a good idea,” Applejack argued, though not in the tone she might use if she were intending to disobey. “You need every second. We’re bein’ followed, don’t forget it.”They arrived after a few minutes later. The ground hadn’t stopped shaking, and in fact Twilight…
    • Chapter 122 Cover
      by Starscribe — The Thaumic Solution 73% It wasn’t exactly a list of good options. Twilight could practically taste the chaos in Canterlot as soon as they tried anything that might leave their two halves of pony civilization with some lasting class divide. Node could only give vague answers about how long it would take to reach the Flotilla once they stepped into the Highway, but Twilight didn’t think the enlightened races there would take too kindly to their arrival if their ship was in the middle of a civil war.…
    • Chapter 75 Cover
      by Starscribe — Hunt and destroy with all resources 47%“You don’t have a choice,” Rainbow said, hacking and coughing. Whatever had happened to her during the creature’s brief attack, it was slowing her down. There were burns on the front of her armor, most concentrated near her head, and her rifle’s capacitors had all exploded. The suit seemed to have protected the rest of her from that explosion. “We have to bring it down. Once that thing gets into the buckin’ ruins, it’s gone. No way it doesn’t know we…
    • Chapter 45 Cover
      by Starscribe — Remain in orbit to treat Applejack and interrogate Node 50%Twilight didn’t let herself relax until the engines finally cooled again and all the screens in front of her were glowing green. She checked the orbital projection, waited a few seconds for the computer to return confirmation that their trajectory was stable, then spun her chair around. “Guess you… had an adventure down there,” Fluttershy muttered, her eyes never leaving Node. For the first time since Twilight had met her, the doctor was…
    • Chapter 97 Cover
      by Starscribe — Node's: Use the truth. 84%Spike raised a claw to knock, but the door swung open on its own. He retreated a step—but it was only Apple Bloom on the other side. She was wearing one of those strange harness-things, making her stand vertically like he was. She was also entirely biological, just like he was. Just like Node. “I was wonderin’ when you would show up,” she said. “After Pinkie found her way here… she said you’d finally found yer way in to bust us all out of this place.”“I have,”…
