Years spent learning and sacrificing. Years spent turning down friendship. Sunset gave up everything. That was ok though. She was willing to be strong and make those sacrifices. She had to be. Sunset was Princess Celestia's star pupil and was destined for great things. Her faith in Celestia and her future at her side burned brighter than the sun... or at least it did...

The books in the libraries forbidden section revealed much. They revealed that everything she had strived for was and has been in reach for years. They revealed just how easy obtaining her goals were. Worst of all they revealed that Celestia had kept her from rising. Nothing could have hurt her worse...

"It was her light that allowed me to see a universe so different from this. It was her light that warmed my life. No pony can take the place of Octavia Melody. They are but candles which try to compete with the sun, and when the sun sets, no candle can replace it."

First and foremost I hope no one gets offended. I don't know how someone could but if you do I did not intend it. This is my second attempt at first person so go easy on me. If you notice any big boo boos please point them out.

This is a story that I feel many people have gone through in some way. It is 2014 and becoming much easier for gay people to just come out and be themselves. I have always wondered about those who have had to hide their feelings. Growing up my mom watched a lot of news and sometimes there would be married couples splitting because one person was actually gay. Thats were I got this idea. I wanted to try to imagine what it must be like for both people. Imagine loving someone with every fiber of your being only to find out they won't ever love you as you love them. Imagine having to lead someone on in a relationship because of the fear that has been instilled in you since a young age. Having to hide yourself from everything and everyone because you don't know if they will still accept you. Either one seems terrifying to me. I don't know if I effectively captured these emotions or feels. I suppose you all can tell me if I did. Celestia knows, I don't think I could ever truly capture those feels because I don't think I have ever been in that situation.

For all of you who have been in a situation like this. You have my respect.

I may do a second chapter if reception calls for it. I intended for this to be a one shot but I know I could do another chapter from another view.

Colgate has to deal with nasty Ponyville teeth all year long. So far the only break she has had is from Spike and the Princesses. When Fleur De Lis visits Ponyville she is given a near royal treatment. Although strangely enough she only visited the small town to see the dentist. A dentist far away from the elite of Canterlot...

Upon seeing the super model's teeth Colgate realizes that she is in love with Fleur's mouth. Every incisor, molar and even her gums. The desire for Fleur's mouth flourishes into a desire for the pony herself. How will Colgate reel Fleur in?

Dental cleanings of course.

Twilight was looking forward to a nice day alone. Away from princess, and friendship duties alike for at least one day. JUST ONE.

Thanks to one persistent stallion however, she isn't getting that day today.

Based off the Mad TV skit of the same name. Click here to see that.

Night Spark and I had a bet... that I lost. This is the result. I'm so ashamed.

Cheating. It never leads to anything good. Hearts get broken, trust is lost, and lives are ruined. Unfortunately, even the best of relationships are not immune to it.

When it comes to light that Shining Armour has been in a secret affair with Rarity, it leaves Princess Cadence and Spike stunned and badly hurt. Leaning on each other for comfort, the two devise a plan to not only get revenge on the ponies that hurt them, but maybe even heal their broken hearts along the way.

Note: This fic was written during season 4 originally, so that's why Flurry Heart isn't mentioned.

Today is a sunny day... but it shouldn't be.

Pinkie is well known for her optimism, parties, and skills in making delicious sweets... she isn't however known for being sad. When she is most ponies keep their distance so as to not make the situation worse by any means. Pinkie doesn't care though. The only one who can make things better now passed away several years ago... but her impact on Pinkie's life remains strong.

On a hot summer day, Rarity decides to make milkshakes for her wonderful assistants, Sweetie Belle and Spike.

Big mistake.

Now the three of them must defend her yard from an invading herd of boys.

This is one of my "I give up completely" stories, so just have fun with it.

Twilight left for an official trip with Princess Celestia, leaving Rainbow Dash at home, utterly heartbroken. She said she would be gone for a full month, and all that she left for her pegasus was a magical stone, tied to the end of short, golden chain. It is an amethyst pendant, created specifically for her use, and its spell can only be used when the time is right.

Now with it's own Piano Ballad by Cromegas_Flare! Click here to check it out!

There are thousands of ponies spread out all over Equestria. When the Sun sets and the Moon rises, everypony prays to their goddess of the night; and then they sleep. They Hope that Luna will protect them from bad dreams, and allow them a peaceful nights rest.

Nightmares can manifest from anything. A lie you told. A thing you stole. No matter what causes your nightmare, Princess Luna will be there. To rid you of the thing you fear, and teach you to control it before it consumes you... like it did her.

Luna has a lot of ponies to watch over... and she doesn't do it alone.

Sequel has been confirmed!
I want to especially thank BBOFF for editing, Night Spark for helping me come up with the dream realm and this whole head canon, and Cromegas_Flare, and Surry for pre-reading! The beautiful Luna art is by AquaGalaxy

Luna loved her sister. She loved Celestia more than she loved the ponies of Equestria. However the ponies denied her. They only loved her sister and when Luna attempted to remedy their blasphemy her own beloved sister cast her from the world. Celestia had made Luna's own creation her cold and dismal prison. The stars had betrayed her. After a thousand years Luna had returned and her sister's pets had forced her to "exercise" her inner demon. The notion that she was ever possessed made her wonder what sort of lies Celestia had fed to her groveling sheep.

Luna stood alone in her tower and watched Canterlot burn. The changelings were bringing so much death and chaos. The captain of the guard was defeated. Princess Cadence was weakened and frail. The elements of harmony were no longer a threat and Celestia was incapacitated. Everything was proceeding as Luna had foreseen.

Edit: I am humbled that someone would consider to do a dramatic reading for one of my fics. FimFic user joehighlord did just that for What Once was Lost. If you would like to hear this story read out loud go here.
