Pinkie has lost her cookbook, and turns to Twilight and Spike to aid her in her search, while Twilight is still skeptical as ever of Pinkie's theories. The two ponies (and one dragon) will embark on a journey of epic proportions to find it. What will come out of the quest, you will have to find out. Hilarity ensues.

This is my first time writing fan fiction, so any constructive criticism is very much appreciated!

Silence. The golden rule is silence. Silence, and obediance.

For years, you have trained as a royal guard. Now, thanks to the fortuitous return of Shining Armour, your old-time friend and Captain, you are promoted to guarding Celestia personally. What follows, though, is the discovery of a personal side to the Sun Princess that you could never have imagined, not even in your most vivid dreams.

(Character Building. Let's try it, shall we?)

Sometimes, curiosity takes hold of us, and we have no choice but let it lead to wherever we are going. Whether in life or in dreams, we are slave to the mysterious force. And now the ponies all over the world are looking to discover a myth. A myth as old as time itself. A myth that only one pony, and that one pony alone, knows is true.

An alarm sounds.  There's a planet nearby.  I wonder if anyone can hear me.

While at a slumber party telling spooky stories, Twilight learns of one story that is supposedly true, and just has to investigate...

A single changeling is cut off from the swarm during the attack on Canterlot. She's discovered by Vinyl Scratch and adopted as a pet. How will Wubsy the changeling, Vinyl, and Octavia cope when the town develops Changeling-phobia? Will Wubsy ever be able to prove her good intentions and stay with the mare she's grown so attached to? Rated Teen for off-page lesbian pony make-out session.

My bid to make "Wubsy" a more official part of the fannon. Check the source of the fic image to see the comic that started it all.

"My name is Lyra Heartstrings, and you will not remember me.  You won't even remember this conversation.  Just like with everypony else I've ever met, everything I do or say will be forgotten.  Every letter I've written will appear blank; every piece of evidence I've left behind will end up missing.  I'm stuck here in Ponyville because of the same curse that has made me so forgettable.  Still, that doesn't stop me from doing the one thing that I love: making music.  If my melodies find their way into your heart, then there is still hope for me.  If I can't prove that I exist, I can at least prove that my love for each and every one of you exists.  Please, listen to my story, my symphony, for it is me."

"So, my new sis-in-law. I've been meaning to ask you this: what happened to the three unicorns that tried to stop us when we left the caverns?" asked Twilight

"You mean the bridesmaids?" asked Cadance.

"Yeah."

"Well as I recall, they jumped after the bouquet that I threw into..."

the realization dawned on the newlywed Princess

"The depths of the caverns." finished the lavender mare, who also had the sudden epiphany.

"Oh. Crap."
