There are many wonderful, exciting and heartwarming stories to be told in the Winningverse.

This isn't one of them.

This story is a sequel to From the Mouths of Fillies

As her battle with cancer draws to a close, Ditzy Doo spends her final days with the ponies closest to her. There is so much for her to say to her friends and family--so much in so little time that she might forget to say one of the most important words may go unspoken.

A side story to From the Mouths of Fillies and Saying Goodbye, and a semi-sequel to What's in a Name.

Lightning Dust's botched attempt to make it into the Wonderbolts set her back quite a bit. Desperate to show her stuff and find the action she desires, she enlists in the Equestrian Royal Guard.

Not possessing much in the way of patriotism, Lightning ponders what could be worth risking her life over, but a mission into the heart of a dragon hiding spot could provide the answer she seeks.

Not everything is as it seems when Dinky visits her mother in the hospital.

When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.
