A double-sequel to Cupcakes. Dead Rainbow Dash's story and the blog can be found here. This was done under the artist's request and permission.

Two years ago, due to a tragic 'accident', Rainbow Dash's internal organs were used to make Rainbow Cupcakes, and with it, she was dead. A year after, she was stitched, sewed and re-newed up, brought back to life with dark magic. Her wings were un-restorable, and she remembered who her killer was, swearing vengeance.
Rainbow pursued the life of an assassin, a hired killer working for the coin, not a Creed. When she gets a job offer with payment higher than any before, she can't refuse, but what will happen when the target is herself?

((Side-note; DRD (Dead RD) uses vulgar language, though that may or may not change as the story progresses.))

When Braeburn visits Applejack, she and Rainbow Dash decide to take him on a local tour boat to see the crocodiles that reside there. The problem though... They are the ones being watched.

When events turn for the worst, they become trapped on a small island along with the other tourists as a bloodthirsty beast stalks them. The other problem... The tide is rising. Becoming a race against time, the group must somehow get out alive before their island is gone and evade one of the most ruthless predators ever to live.

Based upon the movie 'Rogue'.

Big Macintosh goes on strike when he sees he's the one doing all the heavy lifting and harder work at Sweet Apple Acres while his sisters frolic. His idea catches fire throughout Ponyville, and soon every stallion is up in arms! Sexism explodes in the tiny town, it's Stallions on Strike!

A certain mare is having a certain dilemma with a certain stallion.
She's in love with Big Macintosh. And it's driving her just a little bit insane.

(My first attempt at a ship-fic, done on a challenge.)

Spike was tired of hearing the tales of Rarity's coltfriends, and how they amaze her. Going home sad and broken, he found a black notebook that granted him the power to kill anypony as long as he had their name and face. He made a steely resolve to protect Rarity... at any cost.

There are guns, and ammo. No wings above the treeline. No teleportation. Other than that, it's no rules, no limits. Last pony standing gets to enter the throne room. Last pony standing gets the prize.

These are the rules that every subject in Equestria learns as Princess Celestia decides to host an all-out, all-Equestrian paintball brawl in the Everfree Forest. Everypony makes their own plans and soon enough, factions create in the race for the promise of “whatever their heart desires”.

For some, it’s just a game of friendly competition. For others, the stakes are much higher, and in the Everfree Forest where everything and anything goes, it isn’t long before a series of strange events makes our six heroes wonder if they’re playing paintball... or if there’s something much bigger at play here.

Friendship. Power. Trust. Glory. All these elements and much more clash together in Ponyville Paintball, starring Jodie Foster as Applejack.

AUTHOR'S NOTES:

In this fic you will find that a few things don't exactly make sense when compared to the canon universe of mlp. This is because this story was stared way back in 2012, and a few things that might have made sense when written at the time are now canon-contradictory because of advancements in the FiM series' story arcs. For example, Twilight does not use her wings in this fic, because she became an alicorn long after this story actually began curse you MA Larson. If you're sensitive to this sort of thing, please bear with it. I should also stress that such details are few in this story.

To the next person who says this story is like the hunger games, I will come to your house and stab you in the eye with a spork. seeing as how I've run out of sporks due to the insolence of your comrades, I will funnel elephant shit in your ear through a vuvuzela, wearing a Pinkie Pie mask while Winter Wrap-Up plays in the back at full volume.

Soarin' wants to beat the flight altitude record. Rainbow Dash thinks she can break that record too. She wants to face him in a race for the record but things get complicated. Who will be the first one to break the record? And, more importantly, how will Rainbow cope with her feelings?

Three words, spoken as calmly as a comment of early rain on a spring day, made the goddess who received them to forget how to breathe for one long minute.

What if you had everything taken away from you? Your friends, your love, your life, everything gone in a flash of fire? What if you had a chance to save one of them? Just one of them, would you do it? And if so, how would you choose? These are the questions Rarity must face as she walks into the frozen nightmare of a Hell gone cold and face the consequences of her choice. For when you can only save one, how can you choose?

A great way to get into the holiday spirit!

A living meteor has fallen, bringing the threat of Equestria's destruction. The Elements of Harmony have broken, following Rainbow Dash's ultimate sacrifice to protect her friends, and they scramble to solve the mystery while the world prepares for war. Moving forward is hard with Rainbow Dash dead.

But peace in the world beyond proves elusive to Rainbow, and she'll never let her friends down when they need her. Not even death will stop her from coming back.
