This is the fifth story in my second MLP fanfiction series, written and recorded in 2005.

I like to think I'd made a lot of improvement by the time I started working on my second series.  I self corrected a lot of my horrible common accent, worked a lot more on the voices and personalities of the characters and planned the story arc of the entire series far moreso than I did with My Little Pony Magic.   Of course, my singing and acting was still terrible but bear in mind that I'd never taken a single class and, due to my ridiculous childhood, was not exposed to much in the way of music or the performing arts at all.  I was trying to train myself by singing along to MLP songs which I'd recorded on an old cassette tape every evening...and considering how bad some of the singing in those older cartoons was, it's unsurprising that I was just copying bad habits.  Well, that's my excuse anyway!

Throughout the My Little Pony Mystery Series, we discover more about the Black Ponies (yes, there's more than one!) and their human helpers.  Most of the story titles take the form of a question which the ponies hope to have answered by the end of the tape.  By piecing together this information, they hope to overthrow the Black Pony of Darkness and his friends once and for all.

Possibly the strangest story of the entire series.  Truly, Lancer, Lofty and Pinkie Pie take Twinkle and Dodge to the beach for a picnic.  The ponies find a cave where it appears the Black Ponies' human helpers have been doing some nasty work.  While they explore the cave, somebody destroys the guinea pigs' picnic food.  (You know, just because the villains have nothing better to do with their time!)

As it becomes apparent that the human helpers play a much larger part in the Black Ponies' lives than the MLPs originally believed, the ponies begin to wonder if all human beings are nasty pony-hating creatures, including their friend Desirée.  Yes, they decide to judge an entire species based on the actions of a few evil individuals.  Will it turn out that all humans are nasty and must be barred from Ponyland forever?

I should probably note that this series really does make references to a lot of real people, namely the Black Pony's helpers.  Please be aware that there was no malicious intent behind anything I wrote (in fact, if you made it to the tapes, I probably idolised you!) but if anyone happens to hear this and wants me to take it down, just say the word.  I was very sheltered and didn't really have any contact with people in the real world, so the internet (which I got to use once a week from the local cybercafe...God, those were the days!) became my life.  I didn't even have email or know anyone personally until the very end of the series, so there was no ill intent behind my childish tapes.  Thanks for understanding.
