One foggy morning in Ponyville, the residents wake up to find their deepest darkest secrets sloppily written in red paint on their homes. No one knows who the culprit was, the only thing that the town knows is that it will not come off, no matter how hard you scrub. The town is baffled, humiliated, and in shambles. But no more than Twilight and her friends.

In a time where everything you fought to keep hidden is out into the open, will you embrace your faults or sins, or will you let them consume just who you really are?

Time to fess up, Ponyville.

To my dearest Reader,
I regret to inform you that the work of fan fiction which you are about to read is exceedingly troublesome, for it recounts the unfortunate lives of the three Apple youngsters: Macintosh, Applejack, and Apple Bloom. Though they are charming and faithful, these poor ponies’ lives are filled with misery and misfortune. From the very first paragraph of this upsetting account of events the cruelty of their lives is realised, and my horn, even now, is loathe to hold the quill.
In this woeful series the three Apple siblings will encounter an egotistical and prejudiced relative, uncomfortable accommodations, an abused unicorn, a terrible plot, and horrible news that will change their lives forever.
I have taken it upon myself to document these miserable happenings, but you have the freedom to keep on scrolling and pass this piece of fan fiction by. I am sure that not far from this location on the webpage is some other, happier story about, say, some playful and colourful ponies frolicking under a rainbow, enjoying the happiness of a life without sorrow.
However, if the sad lives of these three ponies has grabbed your attention, then read on; but don’t say that I did not warn you.
With appropriate resolve,

Quill

Inspired by A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket

After putting on the Element of Magic, Sunset Shimmer was shown just how much of a monster she really is. But that wasn't all the Elements did to her.

Sunset has now been forced to serve penance by answering any question truthfully and by doing anything asked of her, whether she wants to or not.

And she really doesn't want to.

Until all of the hatred in her heart is gone, Sunset is at the whim of her peers, unbeknownst to them of course. Can her new "friends" help her down the road to redemption?

If not, there's always that other Twilight Sparkle she keeps running into.

Desperate to be free from Diamond Tiara's bullying, Apple Bloom wishes on a star and escapes to a new Ponyville, filled with strangely familiar colts and stallions. As a filly in a school full of colts, she comes to see a new side to both her friends and her enemies.

Inspired by Conner Cogwork's "On a Cross and Arrow", but not intended to be part of the same world or follow the same story.

When the recently emancipated Discord reanimates his old tricks, Princess Celestia calls upon her former student and devises a plan to test the true extent of his reformation.

But, in the shadow of an unexpected arrival, Discord's knowledge of her past could spell more, unforeseeable chaos.

Faithfully assisting Celestia are Twilight and her friends, who have their own problems: namely the intertwining circumstances that are pushing them to discover repressed feelings, pounding hearts...and each other.

My deepest and utmost thanks to Kolth for his tireless efforts in co-authoring this story. Many thanks are also showered upon pre-reader SCS and cover artist Tylerdavasal.

She’s the loyalest of friends and most dependable of ponies; how could anypony not fall in love with Applejack? In fact, so much of the town has found themselves under her seductive spell, they’ve formed a secret society to help each other cope with their unbridled lust. Operating in seclusion, this group has been an unseen staple of Ponyville. Surely, though, nothing good can come of the mare herself discovering the existence of Applejack Anonymous.

Left only with a promise to keep in touch, Rainbow Dash struggles to convey her feelings, and to figure out what the words were that she couldn't say on that last snowy night at the train station before Twilight left. As everyone slowly drifts apart, Dash will have to put in the effort if she wants to keep her friends together.

Applejack has always had a secret dream, one that some ponies would find strange for the tomboyish farmer. She's always wanted somepony to treat her to a special romantic night, while being treated like a real lady. Turns out all she had to do was have a certain rainbow-maned pegasus catch her in a dress. Such an awkward moment will lead them to a night neither will ever forget.

WINNER OF THE APPLEDASH CONTEST!
