In the wake of Chrysalis' failed invasion, a different hive breaks tradition and steps into the light to open relations with Equestria. The ever eager scholar, Twilight Sparkle, uses this truce as the perfect opportunity to learn more about this enigmatic race. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, she will learn all there is to know about what it means to be a changeling.

But will Twilight lose herself in the hive, or will she regain what she has lost? Only time will tell.

This story is a sequel to My Neighbor

In 1945, First Sergeant John Arrow liberated Dachau. Seventy-five years later, he sits down with Rarity and remembers the Holocaust.

Content advisory: contains explicit reference to genocide, but shies away from graphic descriptions of the precise atrocities.

This story is dedicated to those who suffered the horrors of the Holocaust, to those who survived and those who did not. In Memoriam.

It is also dedicated to those who have fought to prevent such evils from ever happening again. For any veterans or others living with that trauma, I've placed a link for the veteran helpline, a link for the suicide hotline, and link for international crisis lines. There is no shame in needing to talk to someone. No one should have to bear this alone.

Scootaloo wasn't quite sure what she expected when she found a letter from her "secret admirer" asking to meet her after school, but it wasn't an invitation to the school dance. Nor was it spending Hearts and Hooves Day with Silver Spoon.

There are certain rules every Wonderbolt has to follow so no pony can accuse them of cheating their way to the top, every prospect faces the same tests and is expected to make it themselves. Fortunately, Captain Spitfire seems eager to help Rainbow achieve her dream and finally don the iconic blue and yellow of her heroes.

But come to think of it, why should Spitfire take that much of an interest in her?

Loyalty...it's a funny thing isn't it? Sometimes our Loyalty wavers when we have to decide something that cannot be undone..Rainbow Dash..Element of Loyalty has died...but in a brave way...by sacraficing herself to save Fluttershy...

This her story....The endless Loyal Pegasus...who will forever lighten our lives...

Luna loves Twilight and Twilight doesn't know it.

So how will Luna tell Twilight? With something equally pretty.

This story is a sequel to Love Thy Night

It has been one year since the events of "Love Thy Night" and the annual Starfall is among Twilight Sparkle and Luna. Celebrated only every twenty two years, the event is rare and takes much energy to conjure and do. Luna is determined to make this night one week before their initial anniversary both special and memorable.

This takes place after the events of Starfall! Unaware of whom the original author is over the cover art, but personal cover-art coming soon. Thank you to my beloved editor King of Kings.

Anthea was never truly alone. She always had her lights, her colors and her wonderful, wonderful blurs. As long as she had her blurs, she could forget about the darkness. As long as there was light, she could sleep soundly and without fear. As long as she could open her eyes and banish the darkness, she was fine. She had her light, she had her blurs.

Then, one morning, she didn't.

Written for the kilala97 Fun Fact contest, inspired by Anthea Fact:Her worst fears are the dark and flying.

This story is a sequel to Wingover

When the biannual Wonderbolt Exhibition in Manehattan turns into a disaster zone, even the most skilled of pegasi will find themselves tested.

Prism Bolt has been coasting through life since his brief moment in the sun during Tornado Duty. His brother, Icy Storm, has set his sights on being a flier greater than even their mother, to the exclusion of all else. Will the turbulence from this event give their lives new direction, or will it send them spiraling into disaster? The time has come for the children of Rainbow Dash to choose their own paths in life. These two brothers, different as night and day, will find that perhaps they have more to learn from each other than they realized.

AN: This is the fourth and final part to a series that began with the story 'A Little Push.' I highly recommend reading the other three stories for maximum enjoyment.

The characters, art and pretty much everything except the story concept belong to Kilala97. She's awesome and you should check her stuff out.

Proofreading done by the grammatical force of nature, Prak. This is another guy you should check out, cause man can he write humor.

This story is a sequel to In Her Shadow

It is amazing how time can change some ponies. Once, the very prospect of flying terrified Prism Bolt. Now, he soars through the sky, lording his skill over any pony he can. It's all in good fun, he doesn't mean anything by it.

Right?

When practicing for Tornado Day, a single poorly timed slip-up destroys any respect the citizens of Ponyville had for him. To earn it back is going to require hard work, something the pegasus has always dodged.

Perhaps all he needed was the right motivation.
