How to Prevent the Apocalypse -- A Journalist's Tale

by Door Matt
Strange omens are ahoof in Hayward-on-Sea. Are the End Times really approaching this quiet seaside town? Or is this just another Tuesday for investigative journalist Breaker Fold?

Things are about to get complicated for journalist Breaker Fold, his long-suffering marefriend, and a pissed unicorn wizard long thought dead. Something has brought a terrible prophecy to their coastal town of Hayward-on-Sea, and it's going to take more than a few drinks to get through it all.

So what does happen when a non-brony writes an MLP-universe story? Pretty much this I guess. Has it been done before? Who knows.

Expect: A bunch of OC's at first, canon characters to trickle in as it progresses, lot's of shipping, a bunch of weird humour, odd dialogue and alot of "Pratchett-ian" spirit, hence the Crossover tag. Go read Discworld kids. Not that you'd need to to understand this story, but you still really should.

Constructive criticism is very much welcome. As is gushing praise. Not that I expect much of the latter. ^^
