Following on from my My Little Pony fanfiction story cassette tape, "Desiree, Run, Trouble!", written when I was nine (part of which can be heard here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iQm5...), I started my first proper MLP fanfiction series in 2002, aged ten.

It's pretty hilarious, I didn't have a clue what I was doing, my common accent makes me cringe, my singing was appalling (and yet I insisted on singing regularly, often acapella!), and yet somehow all of these things make it grossly charming in its way.  Well, for me anyway, but I suppose I have a dollop of nostalgia in my mind which makes it more interesting!

The My Little Pony Magic Series follows the story of the evil Black Pony of Darkness who apparently wants to take over Ponyland.  Having said that, he seems to have a very strange way of going about it, picking on specific ponies who are not at all important in the scheme of things.  (But just happened to be my favourite childhood ponies, of course!)

He starts off by terrorising Truly, putting some kind of poison in the water (yes, he technically spikes her drink) which transports her to his dungeon.  Not to worry though, the ponies have sent a magic box to Desirée (myself) down on Earth which allows me to be transported to Ponyland so that I can save them all.  But will I manage to do so?!  (You'll have to wait until the very end to find out as, having not planned the story properly, the pace kind of drags until the last five minutes when all the very weird action happens...sorry, spoilers!)

One thing I should note is that I was very young and would sometimes make references to real people in the pony community at the time.   Bear in mind that I didn't know any of these people (I didn't even have a computer at the time but would go to the internet cafe and read about them) so none of my comments are personal!  For instance, this one contains a reference to the author of my MLP collector's guide (who I idolised, by the way.  I carried what I called "the American MLP book" with me everywhere until it fell apart!) and says that she wouldn't be able to keep the ponies a secret and would send the paparazzi to photograph them or something!  No offence intended to anyone, if you got named it was because you were "famous" in my childhood mind!  There's nothing malicious in any of the stories but obviously if people have issues with anything I've uploaded, let me know and I will remove them.

And with that, I will leave you all to have a giggle!
