[Well damn? I got semi famous.]

Things used to be good here. The animals were happy, everypony got along, the sky was open and free to the pegasi. Why did it have to change? Why did that- that thing have to come. It gave the dragons power. So much power. We can't defend ourselves anymore it seems. We need to learn how to fight, how to wage war. We are making weapons, but alone, I'm starting to fear we may not be enough even if we can fight back.

All field medicine in this story is actual U.S. Army first aid IAW FM 4-25.11 and the Deployment Medicine Operators Course.

Twilight Sparkle is really really bored. She tries to find a way to not be so bored. Gross rationalization of injustice ensues.

Twilight Sparkle has every intention of crawling in to her freshly cleaned bed sheets.

So why is it so hard to get there?

Rainbow Dash is the world's greatest flyer. Not only because she practices and trains so much she could wear out the Wonderbolts, but also because she has turned flying into her own personal therapy.

However, some feelings don't just go away on their own.

Some feelings, you can't outfly.
