Sunbeam Sparkle is not a good pony. She might not be pure evil, but she is ruthless, ambitious, and so power-hungry that she would even aspire to usurp Celestia's throne. Worse, she succeeds in manipulating Celestia into not only surrendering rule over Equestria, but her immortality as well.

It is often said that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. In most cases that’s true. Many good ponies have begun with good intentions, but slowly lost their way. However, this is not always the case. A rare few virtuous ponies have the character and strength of will to resist temptation, and are never corrupted by their authority.

Even rarer, there comes a time when gaining power makes a pony better than they were before. This is one such story.

While bogged down in her work, Rarity receives a surprise visit from a very important individual. This is the chance she's been waiting for to make a name for herself, but how does one impress a pony who is seemingly perfect in every way? A story of believing in your ability to succeed. You never know when you'll catch the eye of just the right Pony.

Cloud Goat might just have the wildest life of any goat in Goatville. Marvel at the insanity that is her life, and laugh at the suffering of her poor beleaguered best friend, Blossom Goat. Or at least, you would do that if this weren't a story about goats. Sadly, goats just aren't very interesting. Also, the title is a lie. Goats do not win at anything. Ever.

It's a stupid April Fool's prank story. About goats. You were warned.

For Pinkie Pie, life is pretty good—she's the pinkest, perkiest, most partiest pony in all of Ponyville!

Okay, so things could be better. Her friends aren't having the happiest time right now, especially her beloved Dashie, who she hasn't seen in a while. Upon reuniting, an innocent conversation quickly turns into a sour argument, prompting Pinkie to ask herself all sorts of questions. Who's in the wrong? What should she do? Why are all the bad things happening right now?

And, most importantly, can she patch things up with Dashie before it's too late?

A side story to The Life of Times of a Winning Pony, chapters 18 to 21.
