A certain pony hasn't been out much, recently. Send Pinkie to lift their spirits! Problem: It's Pinkie. Then send her best friend! Who's her best friend, anyway? Twilight's let this one slide for too long. Does it fall to her? She doesn't understand Pinkie at all! Then again, no pony really does, do they? (Also, one of Twilight's braincells gets a sidestory. Did you just read that last bit? Yes you did!)
Tagged Romance: Fluffy fluff stuff.
Tagged Sad: Because a pony in it is sad.
Tagged Slice-of-life: Nothing eventful to see here.
Tagged Random: Metaphor gets out of hand, and one of Twilight's braincells gets a sidestory. I didn't write those parts to be funny, exactly, but, if they are, alert me in the comment section so i can add the 'comedy tag'.

I don't know what i just wrote. At least it's edited O.o

Some Wonderbolt Candidates will never be anything. They are pawns, used to teach the ones with real potential. Shipped away to the edges of the empire, these are four of those pegasi: The forgotten front line of Equestria... until the dragons came.

(Warning, majority OC cast. May Celestia help me.)
Rated 'Teen' for coarse language, and 'Gore' for written depictions of violence.
