FHP update: Shattered

HOORAY!
I'm celebrating, even after the terrible thing I just did to Ditzy... I must be evil.
Actually, the heavy subject matter in 'Shattered' was the major reason I was so slow updating. I had doubts about my handling a date rape in the "Teen" category, and yet I didn't want to separate the chapter from the rest of the story. Overall, I think I did a good job. The comments might tell me more.
Maybe I need to add a 'Dark' tag.

'Shattered' was much shorter than I had wanted, but I felt it best to end it where I did. It just seemed to be the right thing to do.

So now, I get to move on with Ditzy. She has her prophecy. I hope she has the courage to follow it.

I still feel bad about reading it, poor Ditzy. Though I hope Dinky comes into play inside Ditzy.

I would hope that no one 'enjoys' reading this chapter. It is a horrible thing to happen. I shed actual tears writing this.
From a storytellers perspective, this is a necessary evil. Drama requires evil so that the Hero can rise above it. Even if Phoenix-like, from ashes.

The quick answer to this question is.... In my next book! Just 5.99 reserve it now!!! just kidding!
Yes. Abacus is Dinky's father.

1944001 yeah i guess it would be neccessary to add drama and people will dislike it on some accord.

On a happier note, YAY FOR DINKY! Im glad she is some what here. But what about Ponyville?
