My name is Sweetie Belle, I've been living with my sister Rarity for six years now. I haven't gotten my cutie mark but I believe that the upcoming talent show will help with that. The only issue is the issues I'm having with my myself...... (Special Thanks to Evil_Gumbo27 for helping me with this)

My name is Gilda. I used to be a Griffon warrior, until I got banished.

When you're banished, you've got nothing. No clan, no funding, no gold watch and friendly job reference. You're stuck wherever the Griffon clans aren't.

You do whatever work comes your way. You rely on anyone still talking to you. A speed-freak ex-marefriend. A megalomaniac illusionist working as a middlemare for the EIS.

Family too, if you're desperate.

Bottom line is, as long as you're banished, you're not going anywhere

Sweetie Belle achieved much while still stuck in her teenage-prime years, a label wanted the voice that could resonate to the masses, and she brought that. But with fame and fortune, comes impurity and corruption. If you let it overwhelm you, though.

And with any sort of recognition or fame comes with fans, money, and eventually...stress.

Anxiety and fear travels in her mind, and the idea of dealing with a crowd just annoys her. Can she deal with the fans of tonight, or will this be the time she cracks in front of the public eye...

Spike Drake has started attending Canterlot Academy as part of a Co-Ed experiment. With him being the only guy in an entire academy filled with hot and sexy girls, will his teenage hormones drive him crazy, or will the boy-starved student body eat him alive?

This story is a sequel to Shard: Flim and Flam's Traveling Sideshow Spectacular

Much to the surprise of Fluttershy, Twilight's brother Shining Armor shows up at their door. After a break-up with his marefriend, the unicorn stallion has decided to take some time off and visit his sister. While glad to see her brother, Twilight also wishes to spend some alone time with her marefriend, and help Shining get over his recent break-up. Fortunately, there are plenty of mares who would be interested in a lieutenant in the royal guard, and Twilight has some friends that are more than willing to help out.

Rated Teen for flirtatiousness.
