[Sci-Fi] [Adventure]

Author: J-Dude
Description: 
"Twilight knew Spike would start to grow up one day, but that doesn't make it any easier when it happens. She's sure Pinkie's right: he just needs some space, and he'll be just fine by himself while she spends some time with Celestia.

But the Princess has her own reasons for calling Twilight back to Canterlot. Two travelers in the Everfree have woken dark forces beneath the Earth, forces of fire and steel..."

Not directed at this author in particular, but for all authors who have been doing this.

Why are there so many fanfics that are submitted, yet incomplete? I can understand sequels, but right now the stuff on the main pages get so many submissions, it doesn't seem productive to scroll through a bunch of incomplete stories and/or WIPs.

@anonymous: because writing out a whole story takes quite a lot of time and you want to see some feedback about it so you can improve it? I mean, ponychan would be the better choice really, but incomplete stories aren't necessarily a bad thing.

@anyomous cause that's just what we do. Don't like it you can shut the fuck up

It's not like Hasbro released every episode of this show at once....

pmcollectorboy said...

That picture has an Out of This World vibe.

@thread in general. Dammit. What the filly is wrong with this place?

I'm surprised Twilight's house didn't burn down earlier. It's probably the biggest fire hazard in Ponyville.

Wow this is the first time I've ever seen hatred on EqD...we shall love and tolerate the crap out of you Mr. Anon.

BlankFlankBrony said...

Apparently people haven't heard of serial novels. It's a way of telling stories in installments, which is not the same as a WIP.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a fic to read...

Jet, you are really late to the party then.

As to the story, reading now.

Pinkie Pie said...

is it bad that i only know what schaudenfraude is because of two and a half men?

Anonymous said...

The ending of the first part... just wow!
Didn't see that coming to Spike...
That alone might warrant a sad tag

Also the ending of the second part reminds me a bit of portal.

Killing Spike off in the first chapter? I think I like this story already...

BEFORE I READ THIS;
It better be an Alien vs. Predator derivative.

Grif said...

Having spike yell at twilight seems a bit out of character for him. do not want.

This is missing the [Sad] tag

Wierdplatformer said...

Now that I've finally read both chapters, I'm extremely curious to see how things turn out.

pizywizy said...

J-Dude. Y u no make chapter 3?

NickoBellic said...

Man I read part three on a ponychan review thread, YOU MUST CONTINUE THIS SHIZ!!!!

Ultra The HedgeToaster said...

Great and gripping story, well ... untill you killed Spike. Sorry, but ... just no.

...grimdark/sad tags missing, much????!?? >_<

NickoBellic said...

Many people are not happy with the death of spike. I for one do not share this sentiment. His death, and the way that it was portrayed, was one of the most powerful and well crafted deaths I've read in these fictions (especially when you play fitting music to it). I know that there are a lot of other fics that are downright depressing, but this one is not on that scale, however, and is not at all detrimental t the story (in fact it comprises that very essence of it). His death created a plot and atmosphere to the story that is rare, and very drawing to the reader (as it isn't the trite sort of fic, but a serious and emotional story that is underlined by the loss of a loved one and the journey to seek both closure and possibly revenge, as well as a greater truth later revealed that will add to it). Being it that I have already read chapter 3 (which isn't up yet), I know that this fic is a purely unique and original HiE concept, and is indeed one of the most intriguing given how the reader can become much more vested in it due to the occurrences. To the point, spike's death made it, as if it were otherwise it simply would not have the feel to it which makes it so captivating. Some of course don't agree with these respects, obviously vituperative towards character deaths, however this is mainly due to the missing tags that would warn individuals beforehand. Add that grimdark/sad tags and keep it as is, for it has greater potential than many may think.

Yo J-Dude...Why u no update??? At least put what u got on, or maybe spread it to FIM.FICTION.Net to give to more exposure...

SIlva said...

Hey NickoBellic I cant acces FIM.FICTION.Net because people decided to be assholes. I think you Know where I'm going with this don't you?

McKay Barney said...

I which there was more. This story is AMAZING!!!

Joe England said...

The villain seems to be following the "Dark Knight's Joker" philosophy, that everyone can be as evil as him given the proper motivation. Poor, deluded, messed-up bastard.
I certainly hope Celestia shows him what-for over the bargaining table, though I'm sure the conflict will escalate. I'd just hate for this to be another story where a crazy-nuts villain manages to baffle Celestia with a sob story and evil fortune-cookie rhetoric.
Celestia's sort of the ultimate mother figure, and this guy's exactly the sort of tantrum-throwing brat that I think she would be able to effectively counter with her sober, effortlessly logical demeanor. I don't expect him to give up or anything, in fact I expect him to get madder. But I'd hate for Celestia to be chased off weeping while he's left grinning at having achieved an easy victory over the "naive ponies." That'd seem like kind of a cheap way to enhance his menace factor. The guy's a psycho, and logic only goes so far when a psychotic tries to justify anything he does. Someone needs to hold the mirror up, even if he'll just petulantly smash it in response.
