Spike and Scootaloo bond over how sad he finds her in the treehouse. *written for a one shot contest*

Although still a novice flier, Twilight has begun to feel comfortable in the sky. But when Rainbow Dash asks her to enter a flying pairs competition with her, she believes that her inexperience will only hinder her friend's chances of winning. Twilight's misgivings deepen when Rainbow learns that two old rivals will be competing as well, and her desire to win begins to drive a wedge between them. Full of doubt of her own abilities and anger toward Rainbow's fierce ambition to beat the others, will Twilight overcome these obstacles and compete with her friend, or will she quit the competition altogether?

The year is 1938, and Private Investigator Octavia Melody is an excellent detective. Possibly the best in Equestria.
In accordance to her occupation, she was invited by Prince Blue Blood, an eccentric with a most definitely questionable sense of humour, to a dinner party of his organisation and to a personal exhibition. An exhibition of the perfect murder.
This exhibition is interrupted, however, when Prince Blue Blood is found dead whilst his dinner guests played bridge only a few yards away. Of the eight guests, four of them are well-established investigators, Octavia included. Now the investigators must determine which of the remaining four guests is a murderer. Can Octavia discover the murderer before they kill again?

After a discussion in class, Twilight has a very important question to ask her mentor Princess Celestia.

This story is a sequel to "Thanks, Twilight"

Soon after the episode Twilight Time, the Cutie Mark Crusaders tried to procure a gift for twilight to thank her for continuing Twilight Time, despite their poor judgment. They found out the hard way that Spike hadn't been completely honest when he told them Twilight's favorite dessert, and none of them were happy about it. Now they wish to express their 'gratitude' towards him... as soon as they figure out how.

My thanks to Cal for spending time reading through more than once and highlighting several areas for improvement during the revision.

It's time once again for Nightmare Night and the citizens of Ponyville are ready for another night of candy, costumes, ghost stories, and more. After Twilight Sparkle taught her the true meaning of Nightmare Night one year prior, Princess Luna takes the day off from her royal duties and joins in the festivities. But when Ponyville suddenly comes under attack by a mysterious force, Luna is discovered missing in the aftermath. What's more, this force is being commanded by a malicious creature wielding a terrible power that the ponies have actually heard of, but know nothing about.

Once again, Twilight and her friends must take up the Elements of Harmony in defense of everything they hold dear, but if Equestria is to have any real hope of surviving against this force, the ponies must first unravel the mysteries of the power that threatens them.

Rainbow Dash takes in a baby Pegasus that was left on her doorstep and affectionately names her Cumulus, she finds motherhood to be harder than it looks but loves the young Pegasus to death. But when it's revealed that Cumulus was born blind, Rainbow finds it harder to raise her with the pain of knowing that Cumulus will never see her mother's face. And as Cumulus grows, she has to fight to find her true self with her disability, and to see the brighter side of life...even if she can't literally see it.

This is a personal story for me, because I am adopted and I do have ADHD, Organic Brain Syndrome and I'm Emotionally Impaired...and trying to get through life with a disability is not an easy ride.
