FREE STORY IDEA: Angel steals the Alicorn Amulet

---

(Full title should be something more like "FREE PONY-STORY IDEA: Angel-Bunny steals the Alicorn Amulet", but alas, dA won't allow such lenghty titles)

^{Sorry, everyone who isn't a fan of "My little Pony: Friendship is Magic", this is one of those in-depth journals outsiders probably won't understand. ^_^;}

Every once and again, I get ideas. Story ideas.

Ideas I'd never get around to realizing myself. Seeing how, ya know, I'm already occupied writing other things.
Thusly, I'd like to share.

And maybe somepony else willing to can write them.

^{This is also posted in The Idea Exchange, so in the unlikely event you do intent to write this idea, please inform me so I can claim the idea as "taken".}

Let's start simple.

Title: "Rise of the Planet of the Bunny-Rabbits"
Tags: Comedy
Characters: Carrot Top, flower trio, Angel Bunny, others...
Description: Angel Bunny steals the alicorn amulet and raises an army of bunnies to take over Carrot Tops farm.

Probably starts off with Fluttershy leaving for a trip or something, and/or Angel doesn't get his favourite meal. Completely logical progression.

Bonus-points if the story tries to take itself at least a little bit serious. As in, how could a group of small forest-critters have any sort of realistic chance against the magic-wielding / flying / super-strong ponies 10 times their own size?

Keep in mind that Equestrian animals appear to be far more intelligent than their Earth-counterparts. See my thoughts on the subject of animal intelligence in Equestria here.


First of all, have the bunnies cut Carrot's farm-house off from the outside world. Overwhelm the few inhabitants and guests of the Carrot-household (Carrot Top, Derpy?, flower-trio) with sheer numbers, bind them with rope, etc, etc.

Possible angle could be for the flower trio to overcome their fear of rabbits and have them fight of the "adorable mennace".


Another possible angle: First the carrot-patch, then Ponyville, then the world! Mwahaha!

Angel Bunny actually succeeds in taking over the carrot farm. Then, he sets his sights on bigger targets.

Possibly rope Applejack and Sweet Apple Acers in on the action (neighbors to the Carrots). Next up, estabilish a "base".

Now, how does an army of rabbits take over a town like Ponyville?

Attack with both cute-ness and sharp teeth.

"Aww, but I can't hit them, they're so adorable!"
"Aaaaah, it bit my wing!" *CRASH*
"Aaaah, let go of my horn!" *BZZZT/electro-magical backlash SFX*
"Mister Fluffikens, how could you?!"

Use their small size to their advantage, crawl into buildings through small spots, etc.

Corrupted Angel Bunny uses dirty tactics. (No surprise there.) Poison the water-supply with poison joke, hold the foals as "hostages" to prevent siblings from making a move (threaten to use poison joke or equivalent threat, cut of mane/tail as a warning sign ), that sort of thing.

That could be a sub-plot by itself - school house surrounded by evil rabbits, Cutie Mark Crusaders have to "fight" their way through.


Telekinesis would be an issue, they'd either need to somehow find a way to disrupt it (rabbit gnawing on unicorn horn mid-cast = pain / temporary magic-blockage), or mayhaps half the unicorns are already conviniently sick due to magic flu.

Twilight probably should be out of town, she'd be a bit too OP here.

Possible bonus idea: The ponies aren't the ones who save the day, but their pets.
