The Red Parade


Cars are still parked outside. If the rapture had happened, why was it unrecognizable? Why was the sky blue? Why did no one tell me? Do these things not announce themselves?

It wasn't like Pinkie didn't make a list of all the things she needed to do. She did! It was just the whole doing part of her to-do's that she struggled with.

The weather reports said it was clear and sunny skies all day, ‘A perfect day for flying!’

Yeah right...Well, I guess they weren’t entirely wrong. They just didn’t account for some newbies getting lazy with a storm heading somewhere else. 

Hindsight is 20/20 they say, and boy are they right. I guess I should have picked a better day to fly huh?

CW - Death, some graphic descriptions and pony swearing (and some actual profanity)

Third place tie winner for the Quills and Sofas Background Ponies: Cherry Berry speedwrite with the prompt of ‘New Horizons’. Originally written in an hour and presented here with a bit of editing and expansion. 

Many thanks to everyone who commented and gave suggestions, I think it really helped and you all are amazing!

(Also there is a sequel somewhat started in the works. It’s an outline, but it’s on a google doc so I may actually get it done. Stay tuned folks!)

I didn’t start the fire that burned in my father’s heart, nor did I even know what set off the spark. All I knew is that he burned with fury, and scorched all he touched.


Written as a panic fiction in a Quills and Sofas contest. The prompt was 'We Didn't Start the Fire, and it was written in 25 minutes, with 5 minutes to edit, where it placed 2nd! Though, there are very minor revisions. Big thanks to Seer, Red Parade, and Snow Quill for help with the descriptions! Also, huge thanks to Snow again for drawing the amazing cover art!

And Pinkie just laughed, endeared by the naivety of the minds of fillies.

Appropriately edited by my good friend, the amazing wishcometrue, with additional edits made during the contest by my other good friends themoontonite, Red and Zontan. Mistakes are because of edits I made after consulting them, and I thank them all sincerely for the help.
