This story is a sequel to Not Such a Newbie

Several months after Soarin nervously asked Rainbow Dash out on a date, the two of them are enjoying a happy, healthy relationship with one another. Rainbow Dash gets to be with one of the most kind, loving and loyal stallions she's ever met, not to mention a fellow Wonderbolt, and Soarin get to be with the mare of his dreams. Yet when he takes her out drinking one night, he finds out just how adorably troublesome she can be.

Reading Not Such a Newbie is not required to understand this story.

There are many dangerous and challenging things in life. Many things that test a pony's character, stamina, and endurance. There are races, there are obstacles, and contests of skill, then there is a little-thought-of test that nopony thinks about; healing.

Rainbow Dash and Applejack have been through many Iron Pony Competitions, but when one lands them in the hospital with six weeks of bedrest they find themselves facing what is probably the hardest thing any of them have ever done.

Allowing themselves to lean on others for the support they need to get better. Come join our heros as they dare to heal.

Being Daring isn't the absence of fear, but doing the right thing despite the fear.

Lightning Dust, Wind Rider...how many dreams have been crushed because of her? Soarin, however, sees differently.

Set right after Rarity Investigates.

Discord returns from a long imprisonment in stone once more. He does this as Rainbow Dash faces a moment of weakness. Seeing an opportunity, he plots to destroy both her reputation, and her sanity, and step over the other five to take back the throne. Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash must wrestle with the idea of mentoring the flightless filly, Scootaloo, as well as dealing with nightmares created by Discord to break her down.

Rainbow Dash, like many others, thought bat ponies were only a bedtime story to scare foals. After meeting the rather rude and fairly bitter Quick Silver, she wishes they had stayed that way. Tasked by Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, Rainbow must travel to one of the bat ponies villages in order to learn more about their culture and save them from prosecution from the Canterlot nobility. A simple mission made harder by their loyalty to Princess Luna, and their lack of guilt for their aid to Nightmare Moon so many centuries ago.

This was actually an idea I had ages ago during EQD's bat pony write off last year but never got around to writing due to overwhelming laziness. Bat ponies aren't out of style right?

Soarin' and Rainbow are expecting their first child. And since both parents are Wonderbolts, everyone expects the baby to follow in their hoofsteps, especially Rainbow. But once the baby is born, Dash's whole idea of parenthood is turned upside down, and she has to cope with the new creative challenges of raising their child.

Oneshot, Soarin'XRainbow

Rainbow Dash means the world to Scootaloo, who wants nothing more than to spend every day with her surrogate sister, learning from the best and being awesome together. Yet all that is about to end, possibly forever, and Scootaloo knows there's nothing she can do about it.

The only thing left to do is say goodbye... but that's proving far harder than she ever imagined.

Rainbow Dash promised to take the rambunctious Scootaloo under her wing on the whim of pride. However, when Scootaloo's repressed emotions come to surface, Dash finds there's more to the little filly than fun and flight training. Can Dash master her own insecurities as she struggles in expanding her comfort zone to give Scootaloo what she really needs? Will she accept the responsibilities to a much deeper meaning with the title of Big Sister?

Dedicated to DawnFade who inspired, through elegant prose, a shattered writer to follow his dreams once again.

And to my daughter Ella, who is a wonderful big sister, but really needs a big sister herself sometimes.
