Clearing throat sounds
Hello there dear readers of fan fiction, my name is Crepusculo and I am here to welcome you to “Crepusculo's One Thousand and One Tales” which is a collection of previews.
Each entry will either be a preview chapter or scene from one of many my story ideas, I got the idea from ratedoni's “The Many Destinies of Sunset Shimmer” which I highly recommend especially if your a fan of Sunset Shimmer and of crossovers.
My goal for this collection is hopefully to get some feedback from you, the readers, to help improve myself and grow as a writer. Also to help me decide which stories I should focus on.
My aim is to settle on at least five stories to focus on at a time.
I already have two of the five: The Sun and The Moon (A Naruto crossover) and Guilt of a Phantom: New Destinies (An alternative telling of Powerdrainer's Guilt of a Phantom) both of which are being rewritten and will both have their own preview entries later on.
I intent to write and post nine to twelve preview entries and then pick the top three based on the comments or I'll have a poll and let the readers decide. Not sure yet, I'll decide around the ninth or twelfth entry and let you know.
Also each entry will have an author note detailing the story preview's summary, setting, genres and my estimated number of chapters it will have.
An example:
Ghoul Busters: The sirens decide to use their vast knowledge of the supernatural to hunt and get rid of the ghouls, gnomes and other creatures that plague every day folk.
Genre: EQG. Crossoverish, Comedy.
Chapter length: Seeing as I'm basing this on the original movie I'm thinking I can write up to somewhere between 12 to 15 or 18 at the most.
Preview Setting: Flim's and Flam's Thrift Store/former adult video store has been rumored to be haunted and the two cheap brothers have hired the Dazzlings to confirm it and if possible get rid of the ghost.
Hmm I think that covers everything. I hope you guys enjoy this and hopefully give me some feedback as well.
The first entry is "Sonata, Tacos and a Jailbreak"

Crepusculo's A Thousand and One Tales
Sirens, Tacos and Jailbreaks- Preview (Edited)
Preview 01
This is based off from my favorite scene from 'Harold and Kumar go to White Castle'.
Summary: When both Adagio and Aria have been arrested and it is up to Sonata to bail them out, much to their dismay and despair.
Chapter length: Original meant to be a one-shot however I could change my mind and have the sirens take their trip to some fast food joint, one full of peril and wacky encounters. I feel I can write around ten chapters if I decide on the latter.
(Scene- Sitting in their holding cell both Aria and Adagio watch as every single cop of the small station runs out, acting like a bunch of toddlers who've just seen Santa Claus giving out ice cream. All because they just got a Code O.)
Sirens, Tacos and Jailbreaks
Aria could only look on in sheer disbelief at she had just seen. She got up and pressing her face against the bars, took a good look on the other side and confirmed that there wasn't a single cop in sight. They had left her, Adagio and the other offenders in their holding cells completely unguarded.
Unable to comprehend the sheer idiocy of the so-called police Aria backed away from the bars and all but fall back into her seat. Feeling a migraine coming on Aria began rubbed her temples as she took in a deep breath. She then decide to voice out some of her frustration to Adagio. After all they were sisters, no reason that they both shouldn't be suffering from the stupidity they've just seen.
“THAT'S suppose to be the poli-”
“SHHH” Adagio rudely cut off Aria's rant which instantly angered the purple girl.
“Did seriously jus-” Aria began only to be 'shhh' again by Adagio, who added in a small glare before immediately turning away from Aria and stared up at the ceiling, confusion on her face as her eyes searched for something.
None of which Aria really noticed, far too enraged to think of anything else other than punch Adagio in the face.
“I dare you to-”
“SSHHH!! BE QUIET!” Adagio snapped at Aria, who began grinding her teeth out of the new found rage she felt.
“Oh it is on now you little bitc-”
“SHHH! Listen!” Adagio cut her off again, bringing up a hand in the 'stop' gesture which in Aria's rage-clouded mind translated to being flipped off by Adagio. But before she could lunge at poofy haired girl before her Adagio turned back to her with a hand by her ear and questioning frown on her face. “Do you hear that?”
Confused Aria forgot her anger for the moment at Adagio's sudden question. Curious she mimicked her leader and strained her ear for whatever it was the diva was hearing. At first all she heard was the natural sounds of an empty police station the ticking clocks, electric hums and even dripping water. She even hear the other offenders snoring, farting and other noises she didn't care or want to know about. She was about to snap at Adagio again until she finally heard it.
“It's coming from the air ducts,” Aria said as she and Adagio looked up at said source, trying to figure out what was making that sound. As it grew louder and closer Aria's eyes widen as she recognized it. “It's the Mission Impossible theme!”
“It is?” Adagio asked with a frown as she listened and cringed as it went on, “Are you sure? Cause it sounds like that time I went to the drug store for some cold medicine and hooked up with that cute pharmacist and brought her over to our place for some fun.”
“We swore NEVER TO SPEAK of that night. EVER!” Aria said, her face red out of both anger and embarrassment.
“Hey you were the one with the cold who kept whining for someone to go,” Adagio said with a straight face that broke out into a lecherous smirk, “And you're the one that ended up joining us and made that cute little thing scre-”
“WE. SWORE. TO. NEVER. SPEAK. OF. IT. AGAIN. EVER!” Aria growled out through gritted teeth, a fiery glare aimed right at the smirking Adagio, “And it does sound anything like THAT at all!”
“It would if it were loude-”
“NO! It wouldn't!” Aria snapped, cutting her cellmate off and pointed at the air duct, “It's someone trying to sing the Mission Impossible theme! And badly at that!”
“Huh,” Adagio began as she focused on the sound again, “well what do you know you're right! And the voice sounds kind of familiar.”
“It does?” Aria asked taken aback and as she too focused on the sound, that was growing louder, and felt an unease well up in her gut as she too recognized the voice going 'nana nananaaa da da da nanannananaaaa'.
“Yeah,” Adagio said as she and Aria both got up and looked at the exposed air duct infront of their cell, “and it does an awful lot like-”
“Oh please no!” Aria cried as she banged her head against the bars, “Please gods above spare us!”
A loud 'WAH!' was soon heard along with the sounds of metal bending and a body hitting the floor followed by an 'ouchies'. The source however soon recovered and quickly got by on her feet as she struck a pose, chest out and hands at her hips.
“Aria! Dagi! I've here to bail you out of jail!” Sonata declared heroically as she closed her eyes and awaited for them to praise her and cheer.
“We're over here you idiot!” Sonata's eyes snapped opened at Aria's words, sounding tired and dazed, as she looked to her right and two cells down saw both Adagio and Aria looking at her the best they could through the bars. She then looked back at the cell before her and saw a pink girl with really long hair and some creepy looking black guy dressed as a genie. The girl just smiled as she blew a raspberry and waved happily at her while the guy just smiled, making him look even creepier.
“Hi.” He said and Sonata could feel an eerie chill pass right through her. Hesitatingly she brought up a hand and waved at the pair as she gave them an unease smile, “Hi, uh, bye?”
Not waiting for a response Sonata zipped towards her sisters' cell as fast as she could and retook her previous pose. “Aria! Dagi! I've here to bail you out of jail!”
“....” Adagio and Aria just stared at Sonata silently, the girl obviously waiting for something from them. What it was they had no clue or care at the moment. Seeing as Aria would rather cave her own skull in then talk to Sonata, it was up to Adagio to take care of things.
“So do you have the money?” Adagio asked with a hint of hope in her voice, hope that was crushed when Sonata looked at her with a puzzled look.
“Money? What money?” She asked innocently as Adagio's head drop with a loud sigh and slumped against the metal bars.
“I wonder if can hang myself with my own pigtails?” Aria wondered as she examined her hair before looking up at Adagio's own, a big puffy suffacat- “Hey Dagi come here a sec!”
Author's Note
Well? Did you like it? Hate? Should I keep a one shot or make into a parody of the movie I'm basing it on? Or should I scrap it?
Please let me know what you thought of it in the comments section below.
Next entry: Rise of the Four Overlords, Inspired by The Rise of Darth Vulcan and Overlord (anime).
Crepusculo's A Thousand and One Tales
Rise of the Four Overlords- Preview
Preview 02
(Summary/Synopsis): Four rather strange teenagers suddenly find themselves in Equestria. It's only natural for them to begin causing some havoc. Inspired by The Rise of Darth Vulcan and the Overlord anime.
Chapters: Hmm I think I can go up to around 40 to 50 maybe with this one. Passed 30 at the very least.
Genre: AU, Comedy, Human, Violence
Scene: Having succeeded in freeing his friends and temporarily incapacitating the princesses and their allies, Teyo must now lead the way out of the Canterlot castle and to freedom before the ponies can recover and overwhelm them. And when they are about to run into a rather large group of guards Teyo has the perfect plan to help them escape.
Warning: the ending will be weird
Rise of the Four Overlords
“What do we do Teyo!?” Ader asked, his tone tense, trying to keep his panic at bay as he tighten his grip on his magic pistols. He could sense the large incoming group of guards just around the corner and knew that they couldn't turn back or even afford to fight them. While the four of them could easily beat the guards it would still take a quite a bit of time. Time they didn't have as the princesses and their little group of heroes would soon recover from whatever Teyo had done to them and give chase. “We can't turn back and go another way and we sure as hell can't fight them head on! We need to find a way to ambush them somehow!”
Kiyiko snorted as she turned to the medieval Halo theme warrior, the short girl looking at him as if he were an idiot, “And how the hell do you suppose we do that ya brain dead moron? They already know we're here and they're on guard! An ambush wouldn't work!”
“Hey! I don't see you coming up with any ideas you little midget!” Ader shot back angrily, pointing a gun at the only one of their group that had a quick temper like him.
Kiyiko just glared back and grabbed her massive claymore's handle with both hands. Her grip tight as she brought the tip up and pointing it right at Ader's face. “Bring it on, bitch!”
“Waah! Y-you guys c-cut it out!” Emily cried as tried to get in between the two, trying to defuse another one of their moments like she had done many times in the past. The meek teen desperately tried to think of something that would hopefully appease the two and help them all escape. “Ma-maybe we co-could th-think of a dis-distraction, li-like a-”
“I got it!”
“AAAHH!” Emily jumped back with a startled scream at Teyo's sudden shout, the Gundam theme knight having been so silent that as usual she momentarily forgot he was there. With a hand over her pounding heart she turned to look at her leader just as he himself turned to look at her. And even though she couldn't she his face thanks to his metal mask, his eyes hidden with a black visor, Emily could still feel the way he was looking at her. A look that send chills through her, one that often didn't mean anything good for her.
“Oh Emily!” His singsong tone wasn't helping matters either.
“There they are!” A random guard yelled as he and many others turned around the corner and spotted the three escaped enemies of the crown and their newest accomplice.
With renewed vigor they doubled their efforts and quickly cleared the corner and charged right at the four, ready to fight and take them down. No doubt they would go down in history as heroes for stopping Equestria's worst criminals from escaping and bringing them to face justice once and for all. Heck they might even get a kiss from one of the princesses. Driven by those thoughts and others the guards readied their magic and weapons as they let battle cries or yelled some random line they felt sound good.
“Seize them!”
“Halt villains!”
“You shall not pass!”
“You need to pay for what you've done!”
“For the princesses!”
“For Equestriiiiiiii....aaaaa..... a blah?” Was all one of the lead guards could get out before his voice failed him and his jaw was left hanging open as he came to a screeching halt at the sight before him. The same thing happened to all of the other guards which resulted in them crashing into one another and ending up in pile ups. Still not a single one of them could tear their eyes off one of the criminals they were seeking to apprehend.
It was Emily, the Wicked Horned White Mage, rumored to act as timid as the former Element of Kindness, Fluttershy, in order to hide her true evil intentions. She was powerful spell caster that held been able to hold her own against the combined might Princess Twilight and her student Starlight in a prior battle before her capture.
However none of that came to mind as the male guards watched the infamous mage do something that was rather strange and usual but also very captivating and entrancing.
She was currently jumping up and down in place with fists up and glue to her sides. Occasionally she would stop and just shake from side to side before jumping again. All while making sure her chest was pushed forward with her eyes tightly closed in an adorable manner. All that bouncing and shaking was having a very interesting effect on her mammaries, an effect that the stallions couldn't help but notice and admire.
There was just something about that pair of misplaced and massive tea-
“SITH LIGHTNING!!” Teyo yelled as he thrusted his right hand at the guards as non-lethal, he hoped, magic lightning shot out of his finger tips and struck every single one of them. He stop after five seconds and watched them all fall to the ground, out cold.
“Since when were you a Sith?” Ader asked as he stepped forward, eyes and guns on the guards and ready to knock out any that were still conscious.
“Well what else am I suppose to say? It's Shocking Time?” Teyo replied with a shrug as he lowered his right arm and his left hand let go of his black blade. He looked at both his hands, flexing them before cranking his neck and worked out the rest of the kinks in his upper body. “God I'm still not use to that yet.”
“Enough yapping we need to go!” Kiyiko said as she looked at the two before turning to Emily who was still jumping in place. “Emily you can stop now.”
“.....” Bounce bounce, jiggle jiggle.
“Emily?”
“.....” Bounce bounce, jiggle jiggle, shake shake, jiggle jiggle.
“Emily?”
“.....” Bounce bounce, jiggle jiggle.
“EMILY!!”
“WAAAAHH!” Emily yelled out in pain and shock as Kiyiko used her sword as paddle and stuck her rear during her shaking phase. She shot up, back straight as both her hands went to grab her stinging rear. She turned to her short friend, her flush bright red with tears welling up at the side of her eyes. “Kiyiko why?”
“Oh don't give me that look now, we don't have the time,” Kiyiko callous said as she pushed the taller girl forward, “We need to move, NOW!”
Complying Emily choked back her tears as she began to move, joined by her friends as they stepped over the unconscious guards as fast as they could. She then shot a small tearful glare at Teyo. “This is all your fault Teyo you perv!”
“Hey I'm not the one that picked a succubus with a massive pair of tits for an avatar,” Teyo pointed out in self-defense, “All I did was use it to our advantage. Now let's get the hell out of here, I'm not comfortable being around all these knocked out guys who have no pants on and I pretty sure they are dreaming about Emily here and her boobs right about now.”
Emily face burned bright red as she looked disgusted, a reaction shared by both Ader and Kiyiko and all three made sure to avoid looking at floor as much as possible as they fellow their nutcase of a leader to freedom
