Applejack claims that she cries on the inside, but Rainbow Dash remembers that wasn't always the case. Believing her friend has an actual need to cry buried away in her even tempered heart she goes to Twilight Sparkle for help in seeing if this is true.

Inspired in part by Tanks for the Memories (which irritated me), and Mother's Day (in a sad-ish kind of way). I don't generally write this type of material so I hope the tags are accurate. Please advise if not.

After an experiment blows up in Twilight's face, thanks to Pinkie Pie, Spike decides he's had enough. In his anger a trans-dimensional gateway is accidentally opened hurling them, and perhaps many more, into a new world unlike their own. The universe is not without a sense of humor, as certain personalities are gravitate towards each other through time and space.

No matter what might happen next, one thing is a near certainty for Tenchi and Spike with twelve super powered mares living together.

Lots and lots of trouble.

History is written by the victor. What if the last battle between Princess Celestia and Nightmare Moon wasn't quite as clean cut as the history books tell? Could Luna have had a reason to turn on Celestia? Why was the Castle of the Two Sisters left behind with all its knowledge left intact, and seemingly in working order? Why do almost all ponies have an instinctive fear of the Everfree Forest? Twilight and her friends might just uncover more than they ever bargained for.
