The Ponies travel to Appleoosa to cheer on Big Mac in a competition of strength. His efforts are both awesome and inspiring, earning him high honors and regards. But when disaster strikes is his strength the answer? A story of knowing your limits, and when to listen to the voice of reason, even if it's very quiet.

This story has not been fully edited yet, i apologize for anything sloppy.

Rarity is certain of only two things—that hundreds of spring flowers are in bloom across the town, and that Twilight Sparkle is the most beautiful mare in all of Equestria.

Well, there's just one thing for a romantic like Rarity to do.

An entry in Monochromatic's Interwoven Colours Contest

After one of their worse arguments, Princess Rarity starts to avoid Twilight, spending more and more time in her room. That wouldn't be quite as much of a problem, if not for Twilight's duty to protect the Princess at all times.

Written as my second entry in Monochromatic's Raritwi contest and set in her Bodyguard AU, which in turn is based on Earthsong9405's AU that I've never actually read.

It's Luna's birthday, and it seems like everypony forgot...Again.

Gift for a friend's birthday. IT WON'T BE A PITY PARTY THIS YEAR!!

A year is made up of four seasons, each with its own identity and experiences. These same four seasons can be said to describe the life of a relationship. The relationship between Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash rises and falls with time, but through sadness, hardship, joy, and laughter, they both love each other with a depth that cannot be fathomed.

This is but a glimpse into the life of that love, told over the course of a year – a year of four very different seasons that span a lifetime.

Winner of the Four Seasons of FlutterDash contest.

H-hey, it’s me, Fluttershy. I can’t come to the phone right now, so please leave a message if you want to. O-or you could just call again. I’ll try my best to get a hold of you. BEEP.

Hey, Flutters, it’s me, Rainbow Dash. Where the heck are you? You were suppose to meet us here an hour ago! AJ’s already left, and I don’t think the others will stay much longer. Just try and hurry. I’ll be here till it closes. CLICK.

Something happened to Fluttershy, and now no one knows where she is. The cops found her bag in the park, a part of her dress, and her phone. It's all Rainbow can do to stay stable, now that the one she loved is gone, possibly forever.

While on a mysterious camping mission of mysterious unknown purpose, Rarity and Twilight find themselves in a perilous predicament. Can love truly bloom on the battlefield?

A human named Kelly can only watch as Fluttershy and her friends are forced into a rap battle.

As the Title suggests, its a rap battle of History between the Mane six.

Edited: So after some careful thought, and not wanting to get my story flagged or getting negative feedback, the rap sequence has been changed drastically to suit this and that there would be no further damage. I took the liberty in ensuring this was fixed, as to some of those in the comment section have stated, and I've personally took a hand in this and made this change. I apologize profusely for any inconvenience, but I wish to make it up so that I didn't do a bad story to give to you all.

So please, forgive me for any wrongdoing and please let me know what you all think of the story now.

Rated teen for some language.

Twilight knows that Rarity is a hopeless romantic, experienced through countless romance novels.
Twilight knows that Rarity has had some bad experiences with romance and courtship.
Twilight knows that Rarity still dreams of somepony to properly sweep her off her hooves.
Twilight has no idea how Rarity keeps missing the hints she keeps dropping.

This story is a sequel to The Art of the Blade

Official visits to Trottingham tended to be anything but exciting for Princess Rarity. She'd spend the entire week stuck in her room, trying to somehow keep herself entertained while running away from the unwanted advances of the local nobles.

Then again, what better way to add excitement to the trip than convincing her bodyguard to join her on an illicit exploration of the city?

Part of the Bodyguard!AU Series, based on Earthsong9405's AU where Twilight is the bodyguard to a "Princess/Queen Rarity". Prior knowledge of the AU is not necessary to read the story. // Cover art by Togekissjpg!
