It's been a month since Sunset and Trixie started dating, and Trixie is dragging Sunset off to CornFest 2018, to meet her parents and see where she grew up. But family isn't always what it's cracked up to be, and sometimes there's a reason to leave home behind.

My own (vanity) entry to the Sunset Shipping Contest: Journeys

In the absence of Princess Celestia, Luna, and Twilight Sparkle, Prince Blueblood has usurped the throne and claims sovereign of Equestria, the other five Element bearers storm the castle to find out what's happened.
A short story for One-shot-ober.
Teen for a few suggestive comments and mild alcoholism.

Sunset Shimmer and Wallflower Blush have been together for a few months since their graduation from CHS. Since then, the invasion by the Storm King and his lieutenant Tempest Shadow came and went like a nasty tornado, leaving people- and their feelings- damaged.

Thankfully, Wallflower comes up with an unexpected-but-welcome idea to lift Sunset's spirits: a hike into parts unknown, in hopes of finding something to heal not only Tempest's eyes, but also her relationship.

After a brief talk with Fluttershy and Applejack, Pinkie Pie suddenly comes to a startling conclusion! One of her friends is hiding something, and it's up to Pinkie to get her to admit it!

Cheerilee has, by and large, been detached from the events at the School of Friendship. She heard the rumors about a total meltdown at the school, and even worse ones about a diplomatic incident that followed, but by and large, she's simply wished Twilight well and went about her business of helping all the young ponies of Ponyville grow.

Then, one day, not too long after the School of Friendship reopened, a new young mind flies into her life.

Special thanks to Cynewulf and Skeeter for giving this story a once over and assuring my stress addled brain that it wasn't total garbage, and to Jack of a Few Trades, for whom the story was written, and whose own work served as an inspiration.

Written for Jinglemas 2018.

Twilight, Spike, and their friends leave the School of Friendship to embark on another adventure. To fill in during their absence, Twilight assigned a substitute teacher to cover for her and teach her History of Friendship class. When the students find out they begin discussing what pranks they should pull or how they can convince what they assume will be a pushover substitute to go easy on the homework.

The pony who walks through the door is not who they were anticipating.

Shortly after her father had landed a demanding and stressful business job, Pinkie Pie has not attended Canterlot High for almost an entire week. She hasn't kept in contact with her friends and she insisted that she was fine. However, when Rainbow Dash tries to find out what has been causing the usually-bubbly girl to skip school, something that she would never do, she finds out a horrifying truth that both shocks her and terrifies her.

Twilight realises something shocking.

And maybe she shouldn't question it.

Sunset always knew that she was destined for greatness, but she never dreamed of how great she could become. Not until she had seen it – the mirror had shown her as an alicorn. Ignoring Celestia’s warnings, Sunset goes looking for answers.

When she learns that the mirror is also a portal to another world, well, what else was she supposed to do? But it seems that she hadn’t considered every possibility. She hadn’t, for example, considered that she might get herself trapped on the other side. Nor did she think she’d find herself transformed into a child again.

Sunset’s life is far from glamorous, but when she learns that Fluttershy has it even worse, Sunset can’t help but take it upon herself to solve her friend’s problems and give her a safe place to live.

For Fluttershy, the invitation is a shelter from the storm she’s spent years living in fear of. For Sunset, it becomes the hope to be part of a family for the first time in her life.
