She can swim far and wide across the waters of Equestria, but it's not enough. There are places above those waters, places she plans to reach. Where biology failed her, her mind would succeed. Equestria better be ready, because she plans to visit!

Miss Cheerilee informs Applejack that she never passed elementary mathematics. Since every pony in Equestria is legally required to understand rudimentary math, Applejack must retake and pass a basic exam in order to avoid going back to school.

Sounds simple enough, right?

It has been three years since the nightmare forces unleashed their second attack upon Equestria and, as a result of a truce made between them and the princesses, they now have their own country ruled by Nightmarity, their queen. One day, Coco Pommel comes across Nightmarity in Manehattan. Expecting to be attacked, Nightmarity ends up--protecting her?

Rarity discovers that her gem finding spell can also find coal, which comes in handy during a fashion show in Loch Azure.

Fluttershy and Coco Pommel are clearly head over hooves for each other, yet both are simply too shy to confess their true feelings. Rarity decides to fix this.

It has been 12 years since Tirek was defeated, and all of my friends have gone their separate ways. Applejack still runs Sweet Apple Acres, although now she runs it alone. Rarity now lives in Manehattan and owns one of the most prestigious boutiques in Equestria. Pinkie has roamed the land with Cheese Sandwich spreading their knowledge of partying to all of the world. Twilight is still lives in her palace in Ponyville, but rarely ever leaves.

Fluttershy died a few years ago.

I've even moved on with my life and joined the Wonderbolts after all this time. Life is going great... or at least so I thought.

There is a new evil threatening the land, and it is our job to stop it.

But this is an evil that even we could never have expected. This is an evil I could never hope to defeat.

Returning from Rarity's generously donated job, Coco Pommel is eager to learn under the wing of Ponyville's esteemed designer and her timing couldn't be better. With Canterlot's yearly fashion show and the Grand Galloping Gala right around the corner, Rarity is called to design a eye-catching line for young starlet, Rose Blossom.
Ivory Tower, Rose's manager, runs every minute of her life, and her mother Red Velvet makes sure her daughter is perfect for every photo shoot, public appearance, and cat-walk. Rose's sister, Fleur De Lis, attempts to balance her life and relationship with Fancy Pants with helping her little sister get through each day in one piece.
With such luxury constantly around every corner Rose barely has time for anything but work, but when Coco begins to notice that Rose is anything but the happy, privileged celebrity that everyone thinks she is, Coco unknowingly comes to the rescue with the companionship Rose so desperately needs.
However, friendship can only help so much when you are forced down the wrong path. Rose needs more than just a friend, and what she wants may end up costing her everything.

This story is a sequel to Misadventures in Manehattan

Ponyville is a dusty little town that wasn't very well-known. Gradually, it's gotten more popular over the years, because some great ponies have left and risen to the top. Grace Manewitz and Coco Pommel are not those sort of ponies, yet.

And if they keep ditching work like this, they certainly won't be going anywhere...

In the city of Manehattan, everything is ridiculously expensive, so it's hard to live on one's own. Which is exactly why coworkers and friends, Grace Manewitz and Coco Pommel, share a flat. In this mini-series that shows a day in the life of these two mares, misadventures are sure to occur.

After all, what they say is true: "Anything can happen in Manehattan!"

When one's life isn't doing well, it can get easy for the mind to get clouded in thoughts.

When this pony's life is on the line, only an angel can save you.
