Starlight Glimmer has succeeded. Twilight Sparkle and her friends never met. Their influence on Equestria never came to pass.

But is victory truly worth earning if the future you end up with is coming apart at the seams? Starlight isn't so sure anymore.

After all, it's hard to be sure of anything without a cutie mark to guide you.

It's been ten years since Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle escaped Ponyville. They were taken to Canterlot where the remnants of ponykind were sheltered. Two years later, the last known plagued pony was destroyed and Equestria was declared as a safe zone. Of course, defenses are on high alert at all times, just in case of the unlikely event that an infected pony surfaces.

Despite living in a city with several reasons to not be afraid, Apple Bloom can't help but fear the worst that is about to befall Equestria once again.

**Title is subject to change**

This is a sequel to my pride and joy, The Last Stand, the chapters will be much longer and I hope that this story will have the same effect the last one did.

I'm also going to need a cover...

Argyle Starshine has died.

When he reaches the gate of the beyond, he finds he is not alone.

Written for A Thousand Words III, in the Drama category.

This story is a sequel to Pregnant Noses Know

Princess Celestia and Baked Bean, after a nearly year-long wait, are now the proud parents of a healthy unicorn colt. Naturally, little Apollo Bean will receive nothing but the finest as he begins his own princely journey, but babies always have their own set of unique issues, and Celestia will find another new life waiting for her as she integrates motherhood into her already busy schedule.

Elsewhere, the Kingdom of Equestria moves on as well. Chrysalis continues to be Chrysalis—much to Sergeant Hokey Pokey's chagrin—Trixie continues in her new role as Baked Bean's secretary while Miss Wysteria and Sergeant Quillpoint take time to work on their relationship and to take care of their brand-new twins, Twilight Sparkle begins teaching Starlight Glimmer about the magic of friendship after several world-ending events, and even Prince Blueblood finds much to accomplish upon returning from Yakyakistan.

But while forgotten friends and new adventures await, Baked Bean and Celestia know that, come what may, they will enjoy all of the ups and downs together...

As a family.

Warning: Contains Cute.

Starlight loses her sight in a near deadly accident. Her life changes significantly.

To Casketbase77, who proofread, Nitro Indigo, who has waited quite a long time for this to finally be finished, Supermarine Spitfire, who I'm relatively certain also wanted to see this when it was done although I am unsure, and Amit, whose stories I heavily based the structure and cover image of this one off of. We miss you, dude. You're quite possibly the best etymologist I've ever met.

God damn, I write too many sad stories. My next one will be funnier, I promise.

A (belatedly informed) entry into the My Little Pony Renaissance Contest. I promise it was! I just forgot to enter it!

Strange things happen in Ponyville. Foals start to disappear; their parents and siblings, struck by grief, will resort to every mean to find the cause. Some of them blame timberwolves; some blame the zebra living in the forest. Some of them even blame their fellow ponies. None of them, however, suspects a little filly suffering from insomnia...

On one cold night, Sweetie Belle’s world is shattered by the sudden and heartbreaking loss of Rarity. Finding it impossible to navigate a world without her sister, she becomes a shadow of her former self, convinced that nothing else can fill the void.

That is until one name starts repeating in her mind: Scootaloo.

"We were so used to them wreaking havoc and walking away from the most ridiculous wreckages that it was easy to forget they weren't invincible. Fate was a cruel mistress to take one of them from us at such a young age...

I was fortunate, but somepony close to me was not. It was hard for me to imagine the loss she felt. It was so difficult. I wish there was more I could have done to comfort her, but my attention was focused elsewhere. Sweetie Belle lost one of her closest friends and she needed me to guide her through the grief and chase away the occasional nightmare. I devoted so much of my time to her that I dared not acknowledge the plague of strange happenings that fell upon Ponyville soon after the accident.

I was such a foolish mare..."
