This story is a sequel to Gears in the Void
Beyond the Crystal Mountains lies the Frozen North, its original name long forgotten behind a barrier of icy spires and temperatures low enough to flash freeze a pegasus. The last attempt to revisit the birthplace of ponies failed decades ago, and the princesses believe it is time for another attempt.
Two weeks after the events of Gears in the Void, Sterling Gears is still adjusting to what she has lost, but when a hero and the princesses ask her to do what she does best, how can she refuse?
The North awaits. She just has to answer the call.
Part 2 of The Tinker's Journey.
Chapters (10)
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
IT's out!!!
also......
FIRST
Hmm, I think I'll mark this for later reading. Always thought the last one ended a bit abruptly so seeing it continue is nice.
YEAH! Woot woot! Can't wait for more! Will Dave be coming back? I thought that such a thing may occur as Twilight absorbed Grue (sp?) who absorbed Dave. Maybe the thoughts and memories that created Dave could be transferred back so she has the knowledge at least. I think I may have to read number one again soon... anyhoo. Until next time, HgSpartan
Really happy to see you've made a sequel.
Can't wait to see where this story goes.
Greatness has returned! This is one of the funniest stories I have read on this or any sight, so keep it up. If you don't mind that is.
A sequel
CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS FANFICTION SERIES WRITERS YAY
I am glad that you are steel writing this story. I sum how lost the story and I have just found it again. This was a good chapter and I can't wait to see the next one so keep up the good work you are doing.
Dragonfox
... I have waited long time for this. I have big plans for you....
Oh this will be fun.
4395739 you know being first is the same as being the number One, which according to three dog night is the loneliness number the ever was.
4401000 Awww looks like someone is jelly...i will take lonely over somepony being strangely obsessed with jars of me any day
but really i dont care about that, i just did it cause it was there. no what i care about is awesome story that is awesome got an awesome sequel
good to see this back Lab, cannot wait for more of Gears' antics and hoping that Dave will make a come-back, as always watching and waiting
*crawls under Gears' bed, snout poking out from underneath*
4403912 That'd be a very conspicuous lump; I did away with the space under beds in my headcanon. Didn't make sense to have something ponies had to jump into and out of.
4403966 i can hide in any opening! no matter how small!
can i have a hoof getting out from under here? i seem to be stuck... curse me and hiding under objects!
4403976 I have it on good authority that there's room behind the sofa.
4403981 hrm... i shall take it my good sir/madam/CELESTIADAMNEDTIREKSPAWN!/thing!
EXCELSIOR! ALLON-SY! SOME OTHER FAMOUS QUOTE!
Whoo!
I don't know how many times I've asked you about a sequel, but I can stop bugging you now!
Now just waiting for the long awaited update to the long awaited sequel of the not so long awaited stories I've read. And that's alot of 'long awaited's
Gonna break my usual rule and give this a thumbs-up before the second chapter arrives. Don't let me down, Labs!
After careful consideration, I have determined that this writer, "Lab" is actually rather good at it. Let the world look on in awe and wonder!
Yay, more of this. No better way to learn how to do things than by blowing yourself up a few times.
FirstDamn it SECOND
Hoppla! Not sure why I hadn’t up voted this already. Something to do with Batman, I assume.
I am enjoying the show so far, though. Curious, I must admit, to see exactly what it is that Sterling thought she saw.
ONWARD TO GLORY AND EXPLOSIONS!
Perpetual motion machine now!
Free source of unlimited cooling plus turbine plus water plus basic piping system equals practically* infinite energy!
*until the neighborhood freezes over, but that won't be for a thousand years or so...
Good chapter. How will she handle being a teachers. Will she teach anypony we know?
This is excellent. You make a compelling story. The suspense and conversations! The SCIENCE.
You've written a sequel
Im not even done with the original yet
4525766 Sorry, there were more stories to tell.
4525817
I need to step up my game then
This chapter was rather amusing. We also learned a bit more.
Learning more and now introducing couch flambé!
I love me some friendshipping.
While this may be FriendShipping, I still like the idea of Twilight Gears or Sterling Sparkle, possibly MUCH further down the line, as sometimes friendship can become something more
Plus they are cute together
Hurray for firmly squashing redundant and pointless shipping ideas! No, seriously. There's entirely too much shipping in the fandom between those who can and should just be friends; almost as though many bronies don't know what friendship is beyond "sort of what you do if you're not ready for romance with that pony yet?"
... anyway, rant aside, nice amusing little chapter, especially with the power surges. Hey, at least Sterling didn't get houseplanted, right?
4535529 Very true. I am utterly terrified of getting turned into a houseplant.
i still hate you for dave but i still love this story
I have to say that I enjoyed the chapter. I look forward to the next one so keep up the good work you are doing.
Dragonfox
I found this line extremely hilarious with the image it conjured in my mind.
Sylvester Stallone as his Judge Dredd character yelling, "I am the law", while being beat by a piece of ice by an angry icicle.
but whens the next chapter coming out and just for fun youshould have twi and gears wake up the next morning in a completely blackmailable pose as gears would put it
so out of curiosity is there any chance of you bringing dave back? he was the coolest
4606946 I can neither confirm nor deny...
4609552 curses
4609552
I'm betting 10 bits right now that the shadow she saw was Dave slowly, very slowly coming back... somehow. Reconstituting or whatever figments of your imagination do when you live in a magic-infused world like Equestria.
4626362 well if lab wanted he/she sorry dont know gender she could bring dave back as say gears sister because lets say to much magic for twilight to absorb so some found daves conscience and the dna from gears left behindd lag and tada
now heres a question whos going to wake up gears?
You've got mail! You've got mail! You've got mail!
Another interesting and amusing chapter! Maybe Discord will interact with Gears some more? As well as Zecora. That'll be interesting as well.

A good chapter. I am looking foreword to the next one.
