Scootaloo goes to get Rainbow Dash a gift, but in the storm she loses her way and needs a savior. Her gift is made even more precious by the following events.

We will risk it all for those we love. Nothing can stop us, and nothing can break our bonds we form with our loved ones.

Not even death.

No matter what it may seem, or what is presented, or what you may read, please know this is a happy story.

Rarity hopes you'll remember that.

She'll try to remember, too.

Entry to the Quill and Sofa's Speedwriting's #34th contest - "Going Home". Originally ~700 words, but expanded so it could be posted as a stand alone story.

No one told Lily that when a fairytale opportunity arrives, it is probably too good to be true. Now she is just a sinking ship, nothing more. This is what happens when a prince and a florist meet.

Thank you to all of you once again!
