The Zebra civilization was never the richest in Equestria. They made do with what they had and stuck together like one big family. But even with a strong community, the lack of natural resources and food hit the species hard, to the point of near extinction.

Then a special zebra was born with a gift. A gift that she was destined with... a gift that could bring new life to her people.

Who would have thought a pony and a changeling could have children together. I certainly wouldn't have. This is Shining Armor, and I'm in a weird situation. Chrysalis has shown up to my home and dropped a kid off stating that it was our son.

What will Cadance think? How am I going to raise a changeling child? Why does Chrysalis keep coming into my life, and why am I finding it harder to keep her away? Hopefully answers can be found with as little problems as possible. Oh who the Tartarus am I kidding, my seed is a changeling! There's bound to be a problem along the way.

Story inspired by Bakki's excellent fanart.

Every child has a moment when they must come face to face with fear. It is a moment predicated in growth and exemplifying growing up. It is a moment that can define a childhood, for good or ill.

For Dinky Hooves, that moment has come.

Time to pick up my pen.

Swansong, an exiled changeling, is living in Equestria; surviving by any means she can. There’s a reason it’s considered Equestria’s second oldest profession. Swansong ekes out a living as best she can, until she finds herself in an impossible situation; she has laid an egg, a privilege normally restricted to the Queen’s brood.

As the the little hatchling grows, Swansong knows something is wrong. The child eats regular pony food, and she feels the love emanating from it. Her fellow changelings would either steal the child as a resource, to be fed on until she died; or they would kill her as an abomination.

She knows this, because being around the child makes her hungry herself.

In the warmth of her cloud home, Rainbow Dash is about to turn in for the night when she hears Scootaloo crying outside in the middle of a vicious blizzard. Plucking the freezing filly from the snow, Rainbow hopes to provide some much-needed comfort for the otherwise tough young pegasus, but she uncovers a disturbing reality that she knows she cannot handle alone.

Knowing only one pony that could really help her out, Rainbow enlists Twilight’s help, determined to set things straight for Scootaloo. But what Rainbow doesn’t know is that in her efforts to provide a better life for the filly, her friendship with Twilight will develop into something more.

-Bon Bon's heart is in the wrong place, and now that it is too late she realizes the pain she put Lyra through, and she blames herself for her death.
-Colgate remembers all the memories from her childhood with Lyra, and her mind and soul are left in a nostalgic state.
-Rose tries to move on with her life; using forgetfulness as a way to mourn. While Daisy continues to act normally, Lily has locked herself away, never wanting to see the light of day again.
-Berry Punch sees Bon Bon in her time of need, but doesn't know how to comfort her, fearing that Bon Bon is having second thoughts about her choices in the past.

Once again this is a sequel, so for you to understand what is happening I recommend reading my story Missing Her first!
