It's been a few months since Twilight and her friends stopped the Storm King. With this new dawn, Tempest Shadow, going by her real name Fizzlepop Berrytwist, decides to take her chances to live a normal life in Ponyville. She explains how things came to be, and how her journey of redemption unfolded.
Disclaimer: The sex tag is because of brief but non-descriptive mentions of sex and heat, a bit of mild seduction, and mentions of Tempest's impregnation in the first chapter. There are also very mild curse words throughout the story so be warned. Also, be prepared for reformed and preggy Tempest being an optimistic cutie.
Big shout out to my friend Moorsheadfalling for helping edit my fics. Especially this one. You the man, man 
Also, art by Bluebender. Please go check his art out! Be warned if you do though! His art can range from suggestive to lewd!

Absolutely adorable. I have a feeling I'm going to get diabetes before this is over.

Lol, that's my aim
If the fic is getting a cute reaction out of people, I must be doing something right. Thank you very much
9579312
You are, trust me and you're quite welcome.
Nice and interesting. I quite like the idea of her having a normal life, or as a Royal Guard. Given that the father is Thunderlane, I wonder how his lite brother, Flitter and Cloudchaser would react to the news. Wouldn't be surprised if he makes a good father
My God, this fic is getting some quick reception. Thank you guys so much! I wish I could thank each one of you directly for the support but there are too many to count! Just know I appreciate each and every one of you, I promise not to disappoint with later chapters!

Hey, you just keep on giving us the warm and fuzzies. And as for why you're getting such good reception, it's possibly because this fic is just that cute. Seriously, I agree with 9579508 here. From the sounds of it, Thunderlane would make a good father. ...Granted, his Wonderbolt duties might present an issue...
9579781
Yeah. Though, I wouldn't be surprised either if his colleges come with the ring question eventually
9579788
Given how he seemed to give Te-Sorry, Fizzlepop's rep a boost I wouldn't be surprised if she likes him, just a little at the very least.
9579797
Agreed.
9579798
Where do ponies wear rings anyways? For unicorns, I imagine it'd be around the horn but... What about Earth ponies and Pegasi? What, do they wear it around a chain around their necks like widowers?
9579815
Huh, it's odd. I don't think they ever go over that process with the other pony species. It goes on the horn for unicorns but for the others...?
I'd like to imagine they're in necklace form.
9579815
That's exactly what I always wondered, but like you, I either say on the hoof or as a necklace for Earth ponies and Pegasi
9579837
9579828
Yeah, fair enough. It'd be a really big ring though.
I did see artwork of Rainbow and Fleetfoot once, wearing necklaces of their cutie marks. Maybe that's what happens instead of rings?

9579868
That works too, But in the end, it's to you to decide what happens
9579874
Well, not me...
9579868
I don't think I ship it but that is adorable none the less
9579884
Yeah, but you get the point about possible alternatives to rings.
Thunderlane better come back and marry her! Even if they don't have romantic feelings for each other, a child/foal needs both a mother and a father.
Chapter 2 coming soon everyone! Nearly done with it so get ready for more Fizzy soon enough
9589277
What I would do with updates is put them in blog posts, given I don't suspect people check the comment section of the story to know when it'll be updated again.
Awwwww...
Just seeing how Fizzy's life has changed in such a short time, and being adopted into the Apple Family? Just warmed my heart...
And no, in this case, I don't think there is such a thing as too feel good.
9606430
Ahh, ok good. I'm pretty happy about the chapter, but I was worried it might be kinda mushy for certain people. And even if it is, I still just want to envoke some happy feels from people.
Thank you for the feedback! I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far!
9606471
You just keep doing what you're doing okay? (And Thunderlane, you better come back and take some responsibility for fathering a child!)
I loved it! I find it nice how everypony Greets and helps each other, no matter what. And i like how Apple Bloom sees her as aunt.
Apple bucking, i don't Think its hard Work, thus a Problem for a pregnant mare.
Such a sweet chapter. But I do hope that they help Fizzy track down her birth family some day.
If you don't mind me asking, have you ever considered giving Tempest a love interest at some point?
9611073
That's a secret for now. All I'll say is I do have something of the sort planned for the ending ;)
9611175
Fair enough.
Alright everyone, took a very brief break from fics to finish up my finals. Now that I'm done with them, time to get back to writing. Officially starting the next chapter, hope you guys are looking forward to ch. 3!
Hey peeps, as of the moment I'm writing this comment, FPB is on a short hiatus. I explain everything in my recent blog post.
https://www.fimfiction.net/blog/859463/fizzle-popped-berrytwist-is-going-on-a-short-hiatus
Basically, I'm just feeling a bit burned out on it. I'm not stopping it, but I certainly need a break from it. Sorry about that people! Hope you pones can understand
But I will return to it in due time, so just be patient!
9671205
Well I'm honored to be the writer of the forest for you've read on here! That really does mean a lot!
Sad to say this story is currently on hiatus, but I'm not stopping it! Should be back to it in a few weeks or so, hopefully.
But it means a lot this was your first story on here. I'm greatful I've given you a good welcome into this community
Hello, everyone! Just wanted to say that I'll be getting back to this story real soon. My current lewd fic is taking a bit longer than I expected but after I'm done with it, I'll be getting straight back to this one. So keep tight! Fizzle's wholesome story will continue soon!
Hello everyone!
Forgive me for the long delay on this fic, I promise I'm getting back to it! I've had a bit of a writters block as of late but I think I found a solution! So let it be known that my fics will be coming back soon, including this one! Thank you Pones for being patient
Is the story dead?
It's been two years, it would hurt less if this story was canceled rather than on indefinite hiatus.

Hello Spider-Brony
Yeeeeah, trust me. I'm in a huge fic funk rn. I've kinda just... Lost a drive? I start something, do a few paragraphs, and then just... never pick them back up.
I really, really want to get back into things, hence why I haven't updated this story. I really do want to get back into the swing of things but it's really hard. But hopefully, with some help from a friend or two, I'll be back in the game. It's been a long, looooong hiatus but I do want to get back into fic writing.
I understand your frustrations though. I actually thought about this fic just yesterday so trust me, it's still in my mind. Fic writing still is. I just need to sort things out and find my way again. I know is very selfish of me to say, but I hope you and everyone else who still knows I exist on here can hold out until then. Even if I sadly can't give a specific comeback date.
Thank you for commenting though, knowing someone still comes back to check this fic, that legit makes me happy and gives me a tiny bit of hope to get back into things.
Awww that was so sweet of apple jack to help fizzle pop berry twist it made me so happy that it made me cry tears of happiness not long ago tempest shadow was the commander of the storm kings army but was defeated by the mane six also known as the elements of harmony laughter generosity loyalty honesty kindness and magic pinkie pie is the element of laughter rarity is the element of generosity rainbow dash is the element of loyalty apple jack is the element of honesty Fluttershy is the element of kindness and princess twilight sparkle is the element of magic pinkie pie is a earth pony so is apple jack rainbow dash is a pegasus and so is Fluttershy rarity is a unicorn and twilight sparkle is a alicorn princess
Please write more of the story is was a good one that i really liked please please please do more than two chapters I love a good story really I need to know I just want you to know I'm a very good reader I love stories that'll warm someone's heart and I will do anything to read more of your story so let me know when you're ready for the next chapter and so on I must read the whole story I really don't want the story to be over that's not nice to leave your readers hanging
It's been two years since you did chapter two come on and do another one I'm begging you please don't cancel the story

Hey there.
First off, very appreciative that you like everything in this fic so far. It really does make me happy people still seem to like my stuff. Second, this fic isn't cancelled. Well... Kinds sorta for now. I'm not gonna say it is officially because one day, I really do want to come back to it. But at the moment, I don't think I can. I've been in a huge writers block ever since the entirety of 2020 and ever since, I'll start a fic only to stop and never pick it back up. I've got the ideas and I do have the willingness to start but never get back into it. It's been a perpetual loop for almost 3 years now.
I want it to stop that loop, and I'll keep trying to improve. My personal friends are helping and teaching me new things so, I really want to finish one singular fic myself before I think about coming back to this one. Until then, I can only hope that people still read my stuff and understand my plight at the moment.
But still, thanks for reading my stuff! For your sake and anyone else's who still reads my stuff, I'm trying. And that's the best I can do for now.
