Sequel to 'Always connected' that follows Rainbow Dash and Applejack as they enter the war that was started because of Gilda. They learn about all of the sacrifices that the other elements of harmony made, while at the same time coming to grips with new powers in order to fulfil an ancient prophecy that indicates that they are the ponies destined to end the war... or die trying.

Rainbow Dash has always been Applejack's best friend, but when something unexpected happens, and they thought about themselves in a different way, will everything be the same again? Would they thought the same thing? Would their friends accept their decission?

On the other side, Applebloom is having troubles to tell a fellow crusader her feelings, so seeks the advice of her sister.
Scootaloo was insecure about something, and she needs Dash help to get through, will everything go as expected?

A secret tugs on your mind. It causes you to lash out on your friends closest to you, even if you don't mean it. It is eating you away, but there is no way you can tell them. How could you? They will hate you, surely.
Rainbow Dash has a secret like this.
And she doesn't want to tell anypony.
What happens if it gets out?

After months of fighting feelings about Applejack, Rainbow attempts to get her and Applejack on a date together. But when things go horribly wrong and Applejack falls in love with somepony else (and a stallion for that matter), Rainbow has to work out what she'll do in order to win her over.

Tried to make this a bit different from your run of the mill AppleDash fic with a bit of action to boot. Hope you enjoy it! (Second story, woohoo!)
