There's nothing worse for a pegasus than falling.

Dark. Cold. Alone. Helpless. It's all she felt. It's all she ever felt now. The triumphant Vinyl Scratch meets her low point as she encounters a human -- who is not what she expected.
In this tale of Human Vs Pony, Vinyl is faced with a month of hardship with a human who absolutely hates her, and seems like he'll never accept her.
Will Vinyl crack under his turmoil? Or will she prevail?
Time will tell.

(Note: I changed the 'Everyone' rating to 'Teen' because I'm putting a lot of mature themes in it.)

Contains:
Abuse
Blood
Soft-core Rape

Author's Note:
I deleted the old version of this due to a thankful and helpful comment from a special someone. Thanks so much for giving me the idea of changing the story a lot. I couldn't agree more with you.

Author's Notes:
Kind of a one-shot I did after a 'spur-of-the-moment' inspiration from seeing Spittfire's tumblr (its really amazing) and realizing that there are few non-shipping Spitfire and Soarin fics. So I wrote this! I did not really get any proofreaders for this so I'm sure there's mistakes somewhere in there. Although it isn't my best piece (far from it), I'm pretty proud of how this came out!

As usual, leave comments, (constructive) criticisms and other stuff in the comments. I read all of them!

I hope everypony enjoys this story!

Edit 1: Italicized the flashbacks from the feedback! Hopefully this makes it easier to read!

Apple Bloom is tired of being on her own. With time stopping for nopony and a great, bright beacon calling to her, the little earth pony makes one of the hardest decisions of her life, and embarks on one last crusade with her friends.

However, one friend is not so quick to accept the truth. Can a certain little white filly learn to cope with the thing she fears most - saying goodbye?

The crash was bad. Her wings were fractured in many spots. She wasn't going to heal in a couple days. Instead, it was going to take her 6 months. Six months without flying, there was nothing more uncool, unawesome, and unradical. That was until she chose to stay with Applejack and her family. Broken wings left a hole, one that could only be filled, evidently, by Applejack.

Because sometimes, a finale isn't the end. Sometimes, pure evil just means you have more to lose.

A changeling's body is the plaything of her mind - but can a changeling ever really change her stripes?

Also because I've wanted to try something approximating an adventure story for a while. If there's any demand for it, I'll continue it properly, otherwise I'll just wrap it up quickly.
