On one of the last nice autumn days for his first fall in Ponyville, all Spike has to do is collect late fees and a lost book from a unresponsive library patron. A pony who isn't answering letters. A pony who might as well have never existed.
Spike visits Rarity and invites her to spend time with him. But he seems upset and it bothers the unicorn . Can the pair open their hearts enough to understand what is going on ?
When Sugarcube Corner burns down, Sunburst & Hoops are the last ponies that ought to be affected. But if the past can't be buried again, even Ponyville's model family may be shattered forever.
