Spike has helped in looking after Flurry Heart before, but never by himself. But, when all others become unavailable, he finds himself alone with that responsibility, and so does his best to look after the little Princess.

The Storm King was defeated, everypony celebrated, life goes on as normal.

Right???

Not quite. A guilt ridden Twilight still has one thing she desperately needs.....her friends' forgiveness. Little does she know her friends are also feeling guilty.............

Can everything be returned completely to normal?

During the events of A Matter Of Principals, a certain draconequus spits a brief yet sharp comment at a friend of his that ends up getting him physically banished from school. After the matter is resolved, Discord feels he's back on good terms with ol' Starlight.

Until a dragon friend of his tells him that he's soo NOT good with Starlight. Not until he makes up for it.

This story is a sequel to My Little Pony Friendship is Magic What If?: Volume 6

Seven full seasons of episodes, seven volumes, seven rounds of rewriting. Once again it's that series which seeks to answer the question "What if that episode had been written differently?"

This volume will be the most ambitious yet, four episodes previously rewritten are up for a redo to try and address some of the bigger problems that the first one either did not address or did not dwell on. One will even shift the focus to a different cast of characters. And then we have eight rewrites from Season 7 (as Season 8 is still ongoing at the moment), including two episodes being expanded into two parters, another episode being split into three stand alone episodes with a tying theme, and then one standard rewrite.

By now it probably goes without saying, but the episodes rewritten are based on my personal opinion so please respect it. Don't get offended if an episode you liked is on the list here, or an episode you didn't like isn't. I'll gladly respect your opinions if you respect mine.

And of course, I mean no disrespect to Hasbro, the DHX writing and editing staff, or anyone who likes the episodes that appear here. The intent of this fic, like all of its predecessors, is for entertainment purposes only.

When you make a mistake, it hurts. When you try to apologize, it can hurt even more. When Gabby Gums made a mistake, she–or, rather, they–ran from it. This is what followed. AU "Ponyville Confidential" ending.

When the Cutie Mark Crusaders realized the error of their ways in the Gabby Gums incident, they made it clear to Ponyville how sorry they all were. An apology letter was printed for the final Gabby Gums article, apologies were made, and punishment dealt towards the blackmailing Diamond Tiara.

But what if it didn't happen that way?

Overwhelmed by guilt and convinced that the town they call home doesn't want them anymore, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo submit their apology letter and bid the town a sad farewell, vanishing from the streets without any further comment. Shocked and consumed by guilt, their friends and families start a mad search to find the little fillies and bring them home. Meanwhile, in the Everfree Forest, the Crusaders themselves find that running away is much more painful–and dangerous–than they had expected.

(Written as a birthday present for Matt11. Aunt Holiday and Auntie Lofty are from the "Ponyville Mysteries" series.)

As Scootaloo's honorary big sister, Rainbow Dash has taken on a lot of responsibilities over the years. But nothing can quite prepare her for this situation.

When Scootaloo's friends mention that she's sad and alone in the clubhouse, Rainbow goes to investigate. And when she learns what went wrong, she finds herself thrust into the middle of a delicate situation.

Can Rainbow help her honorary little sister to feel better, and help her to patch things up with Aunt Holiday and Auntie Lofty? Or is the rainbow maned mare out of her depth?

(Takes place after "Marks for Effort" for obvious reasons. Proofread by Smity91 on FanFiction.net and proofread and edited by deadpansnarker on FiMFiction.)

Now that some of her best friends and fellow classmates are part of the School of Friendship, Diamond Tiara just has to see it for herself. But Headmare Twilight won't let her enroll, so that leaves only one option.

While sneaking around to learn more about the school, the filly unintentionally gets spotted by Gallus and Smolder, two of the students who attend.

Hoping to make new friends (and keep them from exposing her), Tiara strikes up a conversation and before long the subjects spoken between the three will take interesting and unexpected turns. But will it be enough to keep Gallus and Smolder from telling Twilight?

Applejack abandons her pie deliveries out of worry and goes back to check on her little sister who's home alone. As a result, she winds up acting extremely over-protective to Apple Bloom, to the point of stalking her.

But what if, instead of sneaking out to make the pie deliveries herself, Apple Bloom snapped and said something in a fit of anger that cut deep into her sister's soul?

An alternate take on Somepony to Watch Over Me

Sky Beak and Ocean Flow relax by the beach and engage in a conversation they've had many times before.

Set after Marks for Effort, The Cutie Mark Crusaders have finally been let into Twilight's school as friendship tutors, but the CMC's are still feeling hurt over the way she treated them earlier, so they call her to their clubhouse to talk about it.
