And when your boss wants to 'have a word with you', you know all is not well.
But why is it that Flash Sentry needs a talking to? Has it something to do with him slacking on the job? Or something with his recent mare-related business?

Professor Discord starts receiving unwanted attention from the new student of Celestial Academy, Twilight Sparkle. As Twilight spends her days trying to unravel the mystery surrounding the Draconequus, something watches from the shadows with malicious intent.

One day, Rainbow Dash notices something about Sunset Shimmer: she only eats salads, fruit, and non-meat products. So she decides to dare the former pony to try a meat product the next day at lunch. Little do they know what's on the menu that day...

Set in the Equestria Girls universe.

During "The Times They Are a Changeling", Spike was able to use the magic of song to prove that Thorax wasn't evil, convincing everyone in earshot, especially Shining Armor and Cadance to trust him and let him stay in the Crystal Empire.

... Except what if it hadn't been that easy? What would it take then to prove something like that, especially to a pony who had so bitterly said, "There's no such thing as a nice changeling" ?

Yep, an alternate take on the ending of The Times They Are a Changeling, the only part of the episode I felt was rushed.

Proofread by Doctor Candor and Malefactory

Shining Armor is Twilight's Big Brother Best Friend Forever... but what does that really mean? More importantly, how long does "forever" actually last? Shining, Twilight, and later even Spike slowly figure that out. Where do their loyalties truly lie? What are they willing to sacrifice to stick together? Will fate and nature itself drive them apart? Or will they overcome the odds?

This story is a sequel to How to Climb a Mountain

Twilight has a problem. After a noble by the name of Duke Bull Horn comes to her castle demanding that she take his son to the Gala as a date, Twilight loses her temper and lets it slip that she already has a date. Fearing the criticism she will get it she indeed does show up without a date, Spike suggest that she take the Captain of her recently formed guard, Flash Sentry. While Twilight initially rejects Spike's idea, Flash himself willing volunteers to take her so that she can avoid the criticism that the Duke might pin on her should she show up alone.

Will the Gala be better than the first one Twilight attended, and will this date become something more? Or will the nobles ruin everything and cause the night to go down in flames?

Brief disclamer: this story is meant to be a prequel to my first story "Gone, But Not Forgotten," though I only realized it could be prequel about 4000 words into typing it, so excuse if it somehow has minor inconsistencies.

MAJOR UPDATE: New rewrite version out and ready for reading. Same story, but BETTER! Also, NOW WITH SEQUEL: How to Propose to a Princess

ALSO ALSO: Now with PREQUEL, How to Climb a Mountain. It never ends. Though it should be noted that the prequel is not needed to enjoy this story. (1/14/2020)

Applebloom accidently over hears her sister using a word she's never heard and when she repeats it to her friends they believe it to be a "sentence enhancer" and are eager to show off their new word, but strangely the more they use their new word the more trouble they seem to get in.

*AU where the Friendship Games never happened*. In the Equestria Girls world, Twilight "Sci Twi" Sparkle is very miserable. At school, the other Crystal Prep students bully her for being smart and every night before she goes home, she faces her principal when tutoring her nephew. One day, the Rainbooms find a YouTube video of Sci Twi being picked on, so with the help of the Shadowbolt 5, they decide to invite her to the Canterlot High-Crystal Prep combined prom to make her feel welcome. However, a few special bullies have a little surprise in store for Sci Twi and the end results will not be pretty. Based off the Stephen King novel and film Carrie, although some elements have been changed.
Warning: Rated T for swearing, a (not too graphic) rape scene and violence.
