    Story: Monster Hunter - Equestria (Update Part 5!)



    [Adventure][Crossover][Dark]

    Author: Bugsydor
    Description:
    My name is Derpy Hooves. Up until recently, I was just your almost typical local mailmare. Accidents tended to happen around me a lot, but everypony has to have something that's a little off, right? Things changed a bit when my ex-husband turned into a vampire and tried to kill me. Now I hunt down monsters for a living so that your average pony can continue to ignore their existence.
    Monster hunting is dangerous work, but satisfying. From what I've been hearing from my new friends, though, a lot of the monsters we've been fighting lately have been— different. They've been more organized, for starters, and their attacks seem to have some larger goal in mind...
    Based loosely on Larry Correia's Monster Hunter: International. No familiarity with it is required for reading, but this work should be similar to it in spirit.
