Scootaloo is upset, and Rainbow Dash is determined to cheer her up. But the usual methods don't appear to be working. Perhaps the answer lies... in the sky.

A story about the power of hope, and imagination.

After Rainbow Dash's rump meets lightning one time too many, she feels like her reputation in town is ruined as ponies start laughing at her misfortune. Her self-esteem in tatters and her loyalty waning, its up to her friends to help her. Please review!

12/22/11 EDIT: Updated with corrections, revisions and an added scene in Chapter 11

Rainbow Dash struggles to figure out why Pinkie Pie keeps acting weird, and seems so happy about spending Hearts and Hooves with hanging out with her, while also puzzling over the fact that Cloud Kicker and Blossomforth seem to be going out of their way to help the two of them enjoy the day.

Cloud Kicker and Blossomforth need to have their own tags, because they're awesome characters who deserve to have more stories written about them.

Has a semi-sequel-follow-up-side-story:"The Life and Times of a Winning Pony."

Rated T until otherwise.

Three months had passed since the Crystal Plague ended not just the war for the Crystal Empire - but whatever whole of society that had remained. Cities and towns were laid to waste in mere days.

There were no winners.

A former soldier, nomading his way from place to place since the fall of the country, is saved from a close scrape with death by another fellow soldier - one he had never met.

When she mentions of a potential paradise within the country, they will both journey the remnants of the once proud land of Equestria - in hopes that they will one day find this promised land.

Sanctuary awaits.

Once again, I suck at making descriptions. :)

Set in the alternate "Crystal War" universe, seen in the Season 5 finale. Contains romance, character development, and eventual romantic sex. Possibly rape at some point.

Scootasynopsis: Following a potion mishaps at Zecora's, the Cutie Mark Crusaders accidentally spread a highly-contagious magical curse. It's an incredibly mundane, banal and tame joke-magic curse, but in Ponyville, that's enough to set ponies off in a Scootariot.

Written experimentally, with a premise but no planning, so the plot was written wherever the characters took it.

This story is a sequel to Flightless Destiny

When Rainbow Dash is injured how will she ever learn to not fly when she is grounded forever?

But perhaps maybe a certain young little filly can help her out to get through her pain, sorrow, and despair...

Applejack is having a bit of a rough time lately. Her and Rarity had had another argument and the cowgirl needed to get some air and a cool beverage to chill out. Unfortunately for her an out of town biker gang has decided to stay at her favorite pub and make life difficult for her. Little do they know that the young lady they are messing with is packing the magical strength of an Earth Pony and is no stranger to a good brawl.

This is a fun little story idea I just came up with.

A good friend will help you move, but a true friend will help you move a body.

Rarity desperately hopes that the latter is true.

When somepony (or ponies) is responsible for the creation of a corpse, the natural first question to arise is frequently "What do we do with the body?" As it turns out, the Bearers have a few ideas.

Maybe more than a few.

Possibly too many.
