Little is known about Fluttershy's past. Aside from her days in flight camp with Rainbow Dash, her friends know almost nothing about her foalhood. But it's on a lonely night when Twilight Sparkle finds a gentle yellow pegasus crying by herself, and learns the shocking truth about Fluttershy's parents.

When Scootaloo learns what the Ancient Pegasi did to their foals that couldn't fly, she's afraid the same fate awaits her. A trip to Cloudsdale with her idol Rainbow Dash teaches Scootaloo what her life is really worth. (A response to Rainbow Factory)

Whether by the sword or the slow decay of time, Shining Armor will die.

It's just a normal day in Ponyville. Everything is fine. But when Twilight sparkle finds a new spell, she accidentally becomes a strange creature. As far as anypony can tell, there's a hairless monkey in the library! Can Twilight fix what she has done? Or will she forever remain...a human?

Please welcome my good friend The Eccentric Mr. E! He will be joining us as a co-author. Don't forget to check his great stories out too!

Twilight Sparkle is trapped in the body of a human who in turn, has taken her own and disappeared with it. Nopony believes her: not her brother, friends, nor mentor. She is being interrogated and asked a single question: Where is Twilight Sparkle? When she tells them that she is the one they seek, torture follows. Twilight begins to lose hope and weighs the question: What's the point of going on when even the world bets against you?

Fluttershy's always hidden a secret from her friends. It's not a horrible, dark secret. In fact, it's nothing out of the ordinary, at least to everypony else: she's got an older brother.

Her brother, though, has always seems to best her when it comes to, well, everything. Tempers flare when he visits Ponyville, and Fluttershy finds herself wondering if she'll ever manage to be as good as him.

When you've lost your family, your history and even your humanity, what do you have left of who you were? Timmy and Fred are newfoal orphans placed under the care of Clean Slate. When Hearth's Warming Eve comes around and the little newfoals remember Christmas, how can anypony tell them that Santa Claus doesn't come to Equestria?

P.S. This story is partly based on real events that happened during the Great Irish Potato Famine of the late 1800's.

You're name is Corvo Attano, the ex-body guard of the late Empress Jessamine. Due to a turn of events you were poisoned and sent adrift down the river. Upon seeing this the Outsider decides to take your body to another world, one that needs your help badly.

(If you haven't played the game I might be spoiling the best part)

Everypony is worried about Fluttershy, including me.
I just hope I'm not too late.

When Twilight Sparkle decides to try a new spell she has perfected, she successfully pulls a being from another universe into Equestria. That being coincidentally is a human...that human coincidentally is you. What at first just seems like an opportunity for first contact between two species soon becomes something much more when certain truths are brought to light...and everything you knew about your life is flipped onto its head.

NOTE: At times in this story, the main character's thought process will be shown as an inner monologue with his brain. BRAIN's dialogue will appear in this color of text.
