This story is a sequel to Coming Home

Saif Tham often travels to Canterlot. Sometimes it’s to run errands for his brother and family, sometimes it’s a vacation.
Whichever the reason, he always visits somepony dear to him.

The refusal of princess Twilight Sparkle to marry a noble of Luna and Celestia's choosing, and running with Flash Sentry instead, leads to the Elements of Harmony siding against the Goddesses, and the people of Canterlot choosing sides.
Now, a wounded and weakened Flash Sentry must reach Canterlot, hoping to reunite with Twilight Sparkle, who was taken by Princess Luna. In the way there, he and the Elements must fight Twilight's suitors, three Guard captains of noble blood.
Note for FlashLight haters: You'll get to read about Flash Sentry being beaten mercilessly for most of the story, so you can enjoy it too.
Art by the great Me. I can draw for you, if you ask nicely.

Sometimes in ones life, you experience something new. Whether it was planned or not it is up to each of us to embrace it, or make distance between it.

Can words hurt more than actions?

Can what has been said be undone?

After a fight with her mother, Dinky finds an old diary.
As she reads it, she finds out more about her mother's past.

Authors note: This is a follow-up to A Love Like no Other, but you don't have to have read it to enjoy this one.

Thanks to Arbarano for helping me edit it, and getting rid of those pesky grammar errors.

Five mares skip breakfast. Then they find themselves locked inside a building obviously meant to store food, but the owner of the storage also feeds a variety of animals, so not all the food is pony food. Will they control their hunger and curiosity, or will they end up eating something not meant for pony taste buds?. It wouldn't be funny if they didn't.

Moxie gazed over the stallion in front of her, as the crowd stared at them in turn. Fellow nobles, dignitaries, and her parents had all gathered here, in the balmy mansion of her birth, to witness this occasion. The final words had been said, and they were now officially husband and wife. But she was not happy; this was not her wish.

She ran her hoof down the lock of blue hair entwined in her mane. Her whole life had been decided for her, everything coordinated to the tiniest detail. What she had learnt, how she spent her leisure, who she knew, whose company she enjoyed, whom she had pledged herself to, everything... except the one trip she had taken to Canterlot without the permission of her parents, that is. The glimmering blue strands linger as a testament to her last free action...

Politics. It’s always about gaining power and killing those that are in the way. The political scene in Saddle-Arabia stopped being about the better choices for the people a long time ago, and turned into an arena for the power hungry. Those who seek to change it are quickly dealt with, a sacrifice to keep the corrupt in power. Saif Tham hates it more than anything, but to protect his brother he needs to get involved, even if it might cost him his life someday.
