It was after they got their cutie marks, that the Cutie Mark Crusaders get the chance to go to Canterlot with their families and celebrate Hearth's Warming Eve. A time full of fun moments, chatting with friends, and many more activities. For Luna however, it is a reminder of all of those positive plus one negative she will be the only one to remember.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders ever so curious, follow her through the whole castle avoiding a few obstacles along the way but what they discover will forever change their understanding of what Hearth's Warming truly means to the Night Princess.

EDIT: Link to a contest thread right here! Holiday Spirit Contest This isn't really important, but it's one of the rules for the contest at hand, so I had to obliged

Spitfire falls under a spell that turns her into a pretty princess! Herp Derp Derp. This is not intended to be a Trollfic, but if you see it that way please let me know! It's just a Fic inspired by this pic that is the cover art and not mine. The art, that is!

Pinkie Pie runs into Lyra on her walk. But the sidewalk was only made for one person at a time. Apparently Lyra thinks that should be her, but Pinkie has other thoughts.

Twilight Sparkle is facing a crisis greater than Tirek, the Changelings, and King Sombra combined.

She's read every single book in existence.

So it is that she has nothing new to read.

She does not take it well.

Pre-read by The Albinocorn and MythrilMoth.

Dramatic reading by DRWolf
Reading by Wing T. Spears

Takes place about a month after the Battle of the Bands.

Now that the Dazzlings are reformed, they go to Canterlot High. But that doesn't mean anyone else has forgiven them, except for one Pink-Haired girl...

Rainbow Dash is a proud mare. She'd be the last to deny she has plenty to be proud about. And even as the years catch up to her, she's as strong and fast as she ever was. She can still clear the skies as quickly as any young pony.

And yet nopony seems to think she's capable of looking after herself.

Thanks to my pre-readers, Blue_Paladin42 and jml123hi.

Now with a dramatic reading by Dr. Wolf.

Some say he is just an urban legend. Others call him a ghost. Others still call him a heartless monster, living on nothing but rage, fear, and isolation.

But what is the real story behind "the Phantom Pony of Everfree"?

Fluttershy accidentally wanders into the territory of the pony everyone fears, and she is a witness to his cold, frightening fury. Scared to tears, Fluttershy is determined never to cross him again. But later, she witnesses something thought to be impossible, and deduces for herself that this "Phantom" is really a gentle, kind pony who merely suffers from the pain of loneliness. She then strives to learn the secrets behind this menace of a pony: who he is, why he lives in the woods, and why he is so angry.

The Phantom Pony, Nocturne, wants nothing to do with Fluttershy, and wants to avoid her at all costs. But his feelings toward her, and her friends, fluctuate over time, and he finds his mind and heart slowly changing. Whether for better or for worse, he is unsure, and he finds himself helpless against the kind light of a mare who may just know him better than he knows himself.

A rewrite of "Kind Light - A Gentle Dark Supplemental", combined with the rewrite of Chapter 1 of "The Gentle Dark".

Special thanks to the amazing Spirit Shift, a man far more talented than I, for the incredible artwork of the title character.

Twilight asks Zecora why she rhymes.

Have you ever heard strange voices in your head? Have you ever felt like your life is being observed or controlled by some omnipotent being? Twilight Sparkle has, and it's driving her up a wall; the FOURTH wall! Watch the hilarity ensue as Twilight hears the soothingly manly voice of yours truly!

There comes a time in almost every kid's life where they start a new school. For Fluttershy, this was the scariest moment of hers. But, things might not be so bad, thanks to a certain rainbow haired girl.
