Twelve years ago, Rainbow Dash caused a tragedy in order to save her son's life.

The trauma of that day forever changed her from the happy, sporty, encouraging mother into a paranoid, overly cautious, overbearing hover mom. When Haze was a foal, he couldn't have known how strange this treatment was. As he's on the verge of becoming a young stallion, however, he can tolerate Dash's interference in his life less and less as the days pass.

All the while, Soarin is watching from the sidelines, wondering what to do about it. Before too long, something is going to give, and with two of the most stubborn, hard headed ponies in the world in this picture, somepony is going to get hurt.

To fix his own family and find a way out of this difficult situation, Soarin must first confront his own past: memories from long ago, haunted by the mother who abandoned him.

A year has passed since that ugly crystal tree-castle grew up in the middle of Ponyville. Nopony can convince me otherwise, and I've made my opinion known to Twilight. We had our adventures, we had our fun, but now, it's back to normal. Things have settled, some for the better, but most for... the worst.

The Orchard is in bad shape. Granny is in bad shape. And since January, I haven't had so much as a day off. Too much work, not enough ponies to do it, and no extra money to get help, it all seems to be swirling around the drain. Course, that's just the status quo. Now that a mare has walked into my brother's life, things are only bound to get a lot worse.

As Ponyville charges head first into modernity, Rainbow Dash lives a quiet life in the clouds with her husband Soarin, and her son Prism. Famous, retired, still the record holder of nearly everything the Wonderbolts had to offer, Rainbow has achieved all her life's dreams and more.

But, for some reason, she's still dreaming of something. A nameless, faceless colt she sees in an endless sky with a single defining trait to him: her eyes. Who is he? Why does he keep showing up? What does it mean? She doesn't know yet, but she's determined to find out.

The problem with knowledge, however, is that it always comes with a price.

When I was little, life was oh so simple. The world was bright, the sky was clear, my family was all here. But the changing seasons would take everything I held dear, and once it was gone, I wondered when I’d disappear. Things would turn for the better, things would turn for the worse, and when the weight was all too much, I couldn’t bear it. Just as things change, oh so much stays the same.

Nineteen years after Luna was freed and fourteen years after Princess Twilight rose to power and began to modernize Equestria, Big Mac has finally made it on his own. Enough land he can work on his own, a loving wife, two great kids. However, as Granny used to say, when it rains, it pours.

One terrible truth after another, Mac learns of a life he may have ruined without ever being a part of it. In an effort to fulfill his legacy and pass on his heritage, Mac does what a stallion does and tries to fix it.

Rarity never thought she would be a mother. In her late teens and early twenties, she always thought her friends might end up with big families of their own, but doubted she'd ever find something that would work with the life she wanted to make room for a family. However, if she's learned anything since then, it's that the Goddess spits on the plans of ponies. Between her job running a fashion empire, her love life, and her daughter, she can't ever seem to manage her time right.

After thirteen years of worry and wonder if she's ever been the mother her daughter needs, she gets a call... or, well, misses one, that might just put her on a new direction.

Ever since Chrysalis' failed invasion of Canterlot, Celestia has been under tremendous strain. Plagued by nightmares of her inability to defend the country, her ability to rule is slowly becoming comprised.

After finally revealing the truth to a still recovering Luna, the two sisters take some advice from their friendly neighborhood draconequus on how to handle the problem.

If there's one sure thing in life, it's that advice from Discord rarely goes according to plan...

My name is Harold Storm. The last few years haven't been all that great. I've got a crappy job, no time for a social life and I'm barely making ends meet. I'm making just enough to pay to go to college part time and work towards an engineering degree. That, at least, should help in the job department if I don't run out of money before I graduate. That was, until an unforeseen death in the family had me driving across country to collect some things that were left to me. The trip there went fine, but on the way home something unexpected happened. I ended up in another world.

A twist of fate, or maybe one that was intended, lead me to Equestria and all the magic that comes with it. With no way of getting back home on my own, I've got a long journey to Canterlot, even with the aid of some new friends. However, magic has a funny way of changing the way one looks at the world...

Alternate universe. Princess Luna is still in her younger form from the end of "Friendship is Magic." Takes place after the events of Magical Mystery Cure and the first Equestria Girls but before Season 4 starts. Doesn't follow show's timeline after that but may draw from some events.

I'd like to give a huge shout-out to fellow author, KorenCZ11, for helping me with pre-reading and editing. Then, after all that hard work he went and made me some awesome cover art!

Kinda slice of life with a bit of adventure thrown in. Some other tags may be added as the story progresses.

The vast majority of the story is 1st person, told from Harold's POV.

Part 1 of a 2 part story.

Rated T for some violence, occasional swearing and innuendo.

Note the lack of a crossover tag
This is not a HL2 crossover, I just happen to like the quote.
