When everyone else turns out to be too busy to do it, Spike volunteers to babysit Princess Flurry Heart for the day. He does his job all right for the most part, but things begin to shake up a bit when Sweetie Belle stops by and insists she help Spike take care of the baby. After some hesitation, Spike relents and decides to let Sweetie Belle help him. The day goes on and Spike and Sweetie Belle babysit Flurry Heart together, almost like their own little family.

After Chrysalis attacked Canterlot and revealed Changelings to the world, the other hives are angry. A single spark could set off this powder keg, and then anything could happen.

Meanwhile, Princess Mirage, daughter of Queen Imago and heir to the Everfree Hive, tries to figure out what to do about her best friends, as yet unaware that she is a changeling.

When the inevitable happens, and war breaks out, is Mirage ready to navigate the political minefield she finds herself in?

The past always comes back to haunt the present, there is no escaping the inevitable. For decades, Celestia has kept a secret from her student. A secret she made out of pain, and through pain will be revealed for all to see; for Twilight Sparkle is the secret daughter of the Sun.

Now, there will be consequences.

Consequences, they come in all shapes and sizes for every decision. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. These words are lessons that Princess Celestia should know, bits of wisdom she practices in her rule of Equestria. How is it then, that when faced with a decision, she chooses the one that would inevitably bring the most pain? How is it that she couldn’t bear being recognized as the mother of her child? And why? Twilight Sparkle is about to find out.

One of Equestria's greatest traits is tolerance. Every pony, whether Unicorn, Pegasus, or Earth, is accepted for who they are, and have their own parts to play in keeping Equestria running.

But what if an Earth pony decided he didn't want to play his assigned part? What if he wanted to rise above everyone else and become an Alicorn? Such a thing is possible... but the path to fulfilling one's dreams is never simple. Risks must be taken. Sacrifices must be made. And the question is always asked: How far would you go to get what you wanted? And would you be willing to pay a terrible price to get it?

Spike takes care of Twilight the best he can. She's sick, but he knows she'll get better and everything will get back to normal. But first, he needs to feed her.

Thanks to my editors Cerulean Voice and Soundslikeponies for all their wonderful help!

Alone and afraid, Sunset Shimmer has been living off of the streets in Canterlot ever since she ran away from home. She is barely holding on as it is and winter is coming soon, and Sunset doesn't know how she's going to survive this one. On a particularly cold night, she's out searching for something to eat when she bumps into the last pony she expects to see walking through the slums: Princess Celestia.

A horrible event has caused me to forget everything about who I am, and has sent me to the world of Equestria, where I'll crash-land in the Everfree Forest. I don't have a clue what I'm doing here, or what's going to happen, but if I live through my first night, I know I'm in for one heck of a ride! Also, where is all this fire coming from?

Be sure to review when you read, please!

As an Atheist I've never believed in religion, the idea of an Afterlife is something I usually darkly chuckle at but I do envy religious men and women.. The idea on how they find such comfort and security in their faiths, how they believe that their religion gives them all the answers they need and then there are Atheist like me who are still trying to find the answer to everything and at the same time.. Nothing.

My Little Pony is indeed something quite odd to find a sense of understand, how the show brings forth emotions of happiness and delight even when I am close to the brink of despair. I've always found an odd sense of comfort in the show but it still doesn't completely stop the darkness of depression from wrapping me in a cold embrace of pain and suicide.

I beg you to read and listen to my story, to learn from where I went wrong and try to make amends for my what I have done though allow me to give you this warning reader.. A world of Light and Purity holds the darkest shadows.

Twilight Sparkle: magician, scholar, bearer of the element Magic, and most of all, friend.
A bat, a book, and a bite can change so much of that, and bring darkness to her heart.
Can you keep your friendships when you might hurt those around you?
If you want to hurt them?
Bloodlust can bring an end.
