Not sure if want, I think I'll read it anyways. Shouldn't this be labeled as a crossover though?

Mr Bronc said...

I would so pay to see a movie like that.

Bombedrumbum said...

This is probably better than the actual movie, lol!

Dash-Cash said...

Cesco said...

@keneticpest

What's worse is they slapped an unnecessary apostrophe onto her sign! Those bastards!

Jelfes said...

@Cesco Umm, maybe it was supposed to be somepony named Nazi and she meant to say Nazi's(Nazi has) stole(n) my cutie mark

Bombedrumbum said...

@Jelfes

I've got a bad feeling about this.

Idle Drifter said...

Nazis, one group of antagonists that'll never be politically incorrect to kill in vast numbers. The next two are zombies and ninjas.
Oh crap, Ninja Zombie Nazis! Grap my .30-06, baby, I'm going hunting!

Spikely Whiplash said...

@Cesco

Damn. So I guess they're not grammar nazis then.

ToonNinja said...

@Idle Drifter
What about Ninja Zombie Nazis from space? That also look like giant insects?

...Also, interesting story.

Idle Drifter said...

@ToonNinja

Just more notches in the stock. Good thing I buy in bulk.

P. Pony Ponyson said...

'Nazi's? Why'd it have to be Nazi's?'
Mr. Gram Marenatzi disapproves.

BlankFlankBrony said...

Quite interesting! And I have a hunch as to what's going on...

Lazulic said...

Iv'e started way more fanfics then i probably should have over this weekend.

There better not be any Nazis in this story. Although what a twist...

Melodia said...

Hmmm.


Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Cesco said...

@P. Pony Ponyson

"Mr. Gram Marenatzi." HA! I love this fandom.

Dammit. I'm hoping they get their marks in Season 2 but with season 3 confirmed...

Hey folks, author of the story here. I just updated with the fourth chapter and I wanted to mention something here that I added in a note at the end of the chapter.

There are going to be two separate and different endings and epilogues to the story. I'll be posting one ending and its epilogue first in their entirety and then the other. I wanted to give the readers the chance to decide which ending they prefer.

Thank you for all the comments and support so far. I'm thrilled so many people have enjoyed the story so far and I do hope you find both endings enjoyable in their own way.

DPV111 said...

Oh man. This story is just happy in a bottle. Too bad you needed to make Scoots an orphan for it to work though. But it does work.

Melodia said...

Hopefully we'll see something of Scoot's family sometime soon....

I like the fic. It was pretty obvious it was a setup right from the start, of course, but the idea of more than on ending intrigues me, at least....

The GREAT and POWERFUL Trevor said...

Sorry if this is obvious or something, but Trevor is putting a spoiler's warning just in case.

*SPOILER* It's fairly obvious that EVERYTHING is made up. The pieces of the puzzle, the holy oat pail, everything. The puzzles were WAY too simple, the pieces not very well hidden, ect.

Still, it's VERY fun to read anyhoof! XD Trevor is liking how everypony is agreeing that Scoots talent is dancing! She's awesome like that!

Also, props for doing multiple endings! Trevor loves those kind of stories! Please keep writing! Trevor has to know how it ends!

I might just have to read this.

Applebloom holding the "Nazis stole my cutie mark" sign in the picture was probably the funniest thing I've seen in a while =P.

Mac3030 said...

Now THATS what I call a theatrical poster

The GREAT and POWERFUL Trevor said...

It's done?! Omigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigoshmigoshomigosh!!!!!

First ending was awesome! Well written and everything! On to the second ending! 8D

The GREAT and POWERFUL Trevor said...

... CONFOUND THESE PONIES! THEY DRIVE ONE TO FEEL! ;a;

That song was just... /cryforever.jpg

A truly wonderful story... Thank you so much for sharing this with us, DJ-Low. Trevor hopes that you keep on writing, and never look back!

DPV111 said...

CMC happyfic. Enjoy it while it's still not on the list of controlled substances. I'll be over here in a coma for the next 10 mins.

invinible said...

While I prefer the second ending, the first ending is more in-line of their known canon personalities.

Baree said...

Heh. Two endings, nice touch. Second ending is of course the feel good ending. Its how their adventures should end, kinda. I don't care for the idea that they need help to find their cutie marks, and to be honest, to me me it would make much more sense for each of them to have gotten their mark when they were getting the fragments from their sisters/idol. Still, the epilogue makes a lot of sense. Yet, it feels to soon.

Therefore, I'll stick with the first ending I reckon'.

ThatShawnGuy said...

Can we get a poster?

gamejunk88 said...

Ohey this thing qualifies for 6-star

T'Renn said...

The second ending would make a great episode if Hasbro was letting the show wrap up dangling plot threads in a final season.

Though I'm not certain Scootaloo will ever get a cutie mark even then, unless the universe figures out how to graphically represent Completely Missing the Point. ;-)

DJLowrider said...

I really had no idea this story would be this well-liked. Thanks to everyone who's read and commented so far, I'm thrilled that you've all enjoyed this story.

I do indeed have more story ideas I intend to write and I even have one new story close to being finished. I'm also very tempted to do some more stories about Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo that would follow the second ending of Raiders of the Cutie Mark here. I have to admit I intrigued myself with some of the back story elements I created for the girls in this story. I'll have to see if any solid ideas come to me from this.

Again, my deepest thanks for your encouragement and all your comments. I also welcome you to check out my other FiM stories at FiMFiction, fanfiction.net or deviantART. I look forward to entertaining you all again in the future. ^_^

WelshDragon said...

I see this becoming a future episode :)

This one goes into my personal headcanon list faster than you can say "cuteceanera".
You're right there with 'Fallout:Equestria', man, you should feel proud. ;)
