This story is a sequel to Twilight's Spark

Audio reading by Scribbler Productions

After breaking up with a mare you've loved for a long, long time, your mind is in shambles. You live life only from day to day, trying to clear your head by doing menial, solo tasks like helping out the Apples in their chores.

One day, however, you come to the close, caring friend called Rarity. And your direction may perhaps be changed for the better.

This fanfic is dedicated to the men and women who serve to protect our freedom. It is dedicated to the poor souls who lost their lives on the fields of Verdun, the Somme, Gallipoli in the First World War, to those who saved us from tyranny in World War Two, and many others who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
These people are soldiers of the Free World. As such they live, and as such they die.

Scootaloo never knew her parents. When she was very young, she was left in the care of her uncle, who took care of her. But one day, she finally meets her father.

Its author, THAT1ANDONLY, kindly gave me permission to use his piece as a thumbnail. God Bless him.

NB: The show is probably going to address the subject of Scootaloo's family, so this story is going to get the AU tag sooner or later.
