Sweetie Belle.

We see them every day, Crusading for their Cutie Marks. Going to school. Trying to be good foals and living a life with their families.

But, they possess a deep, dark secret. This secret is revealed one day, and all of Equestria is now in danger from a religious order that will do anything to call upon the Nightmare Moon.

ANYTHING.

Has a side story now in the form of Flutterhshy's Home For Inter-Dimensional Foal Sitting And Short Term Care.

Button Mash has finally convinced his mother to let him stay home alone while his family goes out for a few days, assuring his mother that nothing will go wrong.

Needless to say, something does go wrong. After burning the kitchen in a fire, Button Mash gets the brilliant idea on how to make sure his mother doesn't kill him. He's going to fake his death!

With no other choice, (Mostly thanks to blackmail) Button's friends must help him fool the town into thinking he's dead but he'll have to figure out a way out of this mess or his mother will bury him six feet for real.

Princess Celestia went out for a stroll to a coffee shop. The next morning, she is single-hoofedly destroying the coffee industry.

How?

No really, how?

When Twilight Sparkle slipped beneath the covers last night, everything had been fine. She had friends whom she loved, a teacher she adored, and a bright future ahead of her. But when she woke up, her blankets and quilts had been replaced by hospital gowns and padded restraints.

Everything is wrong and nothing makes sense; even her friends have changed. The doctors keep telling her that she is sick, that none of it was real and that it was all in her head. Yet she remembers a life far beyond the hospital walls. She couldn't have made it all up on her own. They must be lying… right?

Rainbow Dash has never been to the eye-doctor. One afternoon Twilight takes her to the clinic to check her eyes after a minor flight accident. They end up finding out something that makes no sense whatsoever to any pony in Ponyville.

Woke up this morning to see that my random story that was published for no reason got featured 2/28/14. I'm not complaining, but it isn't a work of art :P. I guess anything a teenager writes about multicolored ponies amuses you.

On a normal weekend, Cheerilee assigns everypony an assignment from a unit she has been using for years. She considers it to be the most important one of the year; to teach the fillies and colts about the differences between ponies, and how they can all work together to do more than they could on their own. Unfortunately, a confused trip to the library by three fillies raises questions the teacher can't answer.

In an effort to make sure she teaches everything she can to the best of her ability, Cheerilee enlists the aid of Twilight Sparkle to help rewrite the textbook she has been using for years. As the days tick by, however, she is forced to deal with something she thought she had a handle on a long time ago.

I have come a long way. Much of my life’s path has been very dark, with nary even a firefly to light my way. I’ve been beaten, bruised and battered. I’ve been made to feel worthless by many, told I would never be: Never a father, officer or upstanding citizen. I had become self-destructive, and turned my back on all that was good, becoming a reclusive hermit, shutting myself inside my own head.
I was pushed to a breaking point, and ultimately, through a power I now know as lucid dreaming, came to foresee an evil that threatened to consume me, unless I took action. I left an abusive stepfather in a single night, leaving nothing behind. He chased me to where I am now, along with the beast I had seen before.
However, there has been a light to help guide me: A certain group of people, many lost and broken like myself. We all found joy in a certain place where the power of bonds stronger than steel reign supreme.
These people not only lifted me up, but ultimately led me to a power to combat the aforementioned evil. I am here to tell of both sides, and how I believe this power has chosen me as its vessel.

NOTE: The events of this story are completely written from experiences I have had involving "lucid dreaming". They were hyper-realistic, with my senses amplified beyond a primal state.

A warning: I am expecting controversy, and I FULLY expect it to be a CIVIL DISCUSSION, regardless of conflicting beliefs.
Understand that respectfully, I will not be shaken from what I believe happened to me. However, I will respect your opinions so long as they are not vulgar or harassing.

Also, the cover image is not of my ownership; I found it on Facebook. If I find out where it came from (odds are DA) I will give credit. Also, thanks to Indiron for his version of Human Fluttershy, whose image is now burned into my mind thanks to this little roller coaster ride.

Twenty years later, Celestia has for the second time taken on a new private student. Twilight can no longer be the Faithful Student, but feels she has failed to become anything else. She must find out what and who she now is—and the difference between these things.

(Non-Twilicorn universe. On EQD March 17, 2013.)
