Soul Mare had a few tragic things happen to her, and its killing her on the inside, but she is too kind to tell anyone how she feels. Slowly... she begins to go insane. Nopony knows what to do until its too late..

Inspired by Dasha's and The Living Tombstone's song of the same name.

A wondrous day rises for Ponyville.

But two ponies do not share the joy. Trapped as they are in their own circumstances, they try to hold to the only thing they have left, each other.

Magic works in strange ways, and seems to manifest in every pony differently. It's always about how one uses their gifts that magic has given them that matters. Sweetie Belle has learned one thing for certain in the past few years, and that is some gifts can quickly turn into a curse.

Update 2/27/12: Fixed a flaw related to the "Sweetie only tried once", complaint. It now explains she attempted a few times.
Also minor grammatical errors.

This was my first fan-fic. I've now moved on to my second one, as this one is finished, but I won't upload the second story until I have permission from an artist to use his picture.
Any feedback, especially constructive criticism, is appreciated, so go ahead and tell me what you think!
Also, please give me any opinion of the sad ending. I'm expecting bad reviews, because I actually didn't want to write it. I wrote a happy ending, and the only reason I wrote the sad ending was to keep everypony happy.
Thanks in advance for the feedback!

This story is a sequel to Like Me

When it feels like you have no one you can count on, you'll turn anywhere for that little pick me up. Sometimes though, it can be a bad habit to have, and even harder to break when it gets you in deep. Growing up can be tough, especially when you feel like no one really understands you. Scootaloo learns the hard way in a tale of friendship, family and coming of age.

Almost a year in the making, the long awaited sequel to Like Me.

Update 10/17/12: Fixed many errors, and reworded things to help make the story sound less "mechanical" also added an epilogue.

All it takes is a leap of faith, one moment, one split second where things could either end horrible, or maybe... Give birth to the start of something new.

If you believe in what you think you can accomplish, then the whole wide world will be on your side.

A nice song to fit the mood: youtube.com/#/watch?v=16FdJrrAWSo

Part II of 'The Sad Bundle'

Rainbow Dash has always been independent. She never really NEEDED anybody to comfort her. Except maybe her friends. But when Scootaloo comes waltzing in her life, Dash's life is about to change. She discovers her sisterly feelings for Scootaloo and decides to teach her everything she knows. And with a sister... there comes trouble. But may this trouble turn out for the better? Her chances have never been this amazing. Her whole life and perspective is about to change... forever.

Scootaloo has never talked much about herself. Nopony knows her family, or has visited her home. But she has one big secret she's never told anypony... especially Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash has always been fond of Scootaloo, cheering her on from the sidelines and admiring her with almost religious reverence. But when her parents are absent from the talent show Rainbow Dash learns that this is in fact a common occurrence and begins to suspect that there's more to the filly than she originally thought. She takes it upon herself to find out the truth and help her number one-fan.

An accident reveals a secret that nopony ever knew....
