Rated Teen: For sequences of violent robot fighting action and some possible adult humor further on, not sure if I should add dark tag, maybe if someone says I need it I'll put it up.

Twilight Sparkle has finally gotten her driver's license, at the behest of her friends. And because Princess Celestia effectively bought her a car in hopes of Twilight becoming more socially active. So what does Twilight do with this newfound freedom? She breaks the law.

HUMANIZED, but only because it wouldn't make any sense for them to be ponies in this context.

As a young filly, Fluttershy had trouble fitting in. She's far too timid to make friends in school, and at home she slowly finds her solace and optimism crushed by her cruel drunkard of a father. Her parents argue every night, and her father has threatened to walk out many times in the past. Fluttershy wants nothing more than for her parents to stay together and be happy, but where does a filly turn to when bitterness and conflict are all around her?

Another Hearts & Hooves day is coming up, and Soarin has the perfect plan set up! Stay in his bed the whole day, with his face buried in his pillow, bawling his eyes out in hopes that nothing horrible will happen this year. What? That doesn't sound perfect? Well, of course it doesn't. But for him, its the best he can do. Years and years of being cursed with horrible dates and even worse Hearts & Hooves days will lead a colt to this. He's tried fellow Wonderbolts, fanmares, old friends, speed-dating, and countless other things. Each date was different, but they all shared one thing: Miserable, miserable failure. He has no plans on trying again. Ever. However, Spitfire won't sit and watch him mope. She knows one mare he may have a chance with, one mare that won't end horribly. Her name is Rainbow Dash.

After being basically thrown off Cloudsdale, Soarin aims to go on the perfect date with Rainbow. She really is all he really wants, and he's had feelings for her since he met her at the Gala. With help from a certain romantic dragon and old friend from Appleloosa, he'll strive to make this year's Hearts and Hooves Day perfect. He's got enough time to set it up, and Cadence's Hearts & Hooves Gala is nearing, so he has to do this right. But somepony's working behind the strings, and they want to see Soarin fail.

Dates will be made! Friendships will be tested! Pies will be eaten! And lots of other stuff! But everyone is driven by one thing: The Power of Love!

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.

The events of the Wonderbolt Academy have played out and Rainbow Dash is in the stretch to achieving her dream but still has a hard time getting a certain erstwhile friend out of her mind. After taking a few minutes to contemplate things, she decides that she's been given enough second chances in her life to see to it that somepony else gets one as well.

Rated Teen for some language later on, though nothing extremely vulgar.

Fluttershy's always hidden a secret from her friends. It's not a horrible, dark secret. In fact, it's nothing out of the ordinary, at least to everypony else: she's got an older brother.

Her brother, though, has always seems to best her when it comes to, well, everything. Tempers flare when he visits Ponyville, and Fluttershy finds herself wondering if she'll ever manage to be as good as him.

If you join a gang, you’re heartless.

If you don't join a gang, you're dead.

I never wanted any part of it, I just wanted to escape this hell. But with my drunken father, dead mother and violent surroundings, there was nothing left to do but adapt and dream of escaping this reality. Dream of meeting her and her friends.

So how can I harm her? What can I do? Do I protect her, save her from this terrible fate?

Or protect myself, and complete my initiation.

Inspired by "My Little Dashie", but not in the way you might think, sort of an unofficial prequel.

We all know the royal marriage of Shining Armor and Princess Cadance, but this story goes all the way back to when Cadance was still Twilight's foal sitter. From a simple crush, to young love, and everything in between. A love struck colt, a beautiful princess, and a friend ready to help. The road to love isn't always a simple one, but nothing safe is worth the drive.
