Applejack and Rainbow are summoned by the Cutie Map to solve another friendship problem. But to their surprise, the problem lies on the other side of the portal to the human world.

Now, finding themselves as funny looking, two-legged, small-nosed, mostly hairless monkey people, the two are faced with some important questions:

Can they survive life in this brave new world? Will they discover what the friendship problem is? How long will they be stuck here? And just why do their human counterparts seem to not be getting along?

Written for the fifth Appledash contest, "Second Chances".

After a long day of flying and stunts, Rainbow is thirsty. She decides to try her luck at Sweet Apple Acres for a mug of fresh cider. However, she may have regretted spilling the truth on what she had in mind to do to a certain orange earth pony.

There's nothing worse than feeling alone during the holidays, something that Scootaloo is all to familiar with. She knows that she has no family to celebrate with, save for a mother so drunk off cider she doesn't realize her daughter's heartbreak.

This is the filly's reality- the harsh card fate has dealt her. But this Hearth's Warming Eve, as she treks home through the brisk air all by herself, a certain rainbow-maned pegasus will show her the true meaning of family.

Fluttershy and Rarity were expecting a nice get-together at Ponyville's local spa. It was a chance to get away from their busy lives to just be in the company of two good friends. What they didn't expect to find is some others having a similar idea. What in all of Equestria are they doing in the spa together?

The Legion of Doom has just been defeated and everypony thinks the three need a harsh punishment, save one. One pony wants to find out what caused Cozy Glow to go down the path she did before punishing her.

All it took was one car wreck to end a life. It ended a life that Rainbow will never be able to forget. That day in the hospital breaks her heart to think about. She doesn't think she'll ever be able to move on, and it certainly takes a lot of help from her partner and friends to finally get her to move on from the heart ache.

Rainbow Dash can't wait to start the awesome day she has planned for her and Applejack. She's so eager she's already parked herself right outside the Acres, bright and early.

But geeze, what's taking AJ so long?

After a long day of flight practice with Scootaloo, Rainbow Dash discovers the filly knows next to nothing about preening and takes it upon herself to teach her.
