Thanks go to Bronytastic for pre-reading this.

On a stormy, overcast day, a yellow pegasus sings.
She sings for her love.
She sings for her sorrow.
She sings for the one who will never know either.

But when the mare who holds her heart overhears, will she have the strength to continue?

This story is a sequel to Fear Me, for My Name is Twaith!

As this is more an origin story for a character in Twaith, reading that first is not necessary.

Fluttershy believes Applejack is one of the best ponies in the world, and why not? Your sister should always be one you love. One look at them though, and you know it's not by blood, so how did they become sisters?

Thank you to ROTII for the cover art!

They haven't tried to pair any pony since Hearts and Hooves day. When they failed to bring together Big Mac and Ms. Cheerilee, they thought it wouldn't be right for them. That is, until they get a new idea in their heads on how to create love between two ponies.

This story is being rewritten. Here is a link to the new version.

Emerald Shield lived in Manehattan for far too long. Nothing worked out right for him. He was an adult, cutie markless, friendless, and most recently...fatherless. Hoping to escape the torment of the city and lose his newly made adversary, he randomly chooses a town on the map to start a new life. With nothing to lose, he makes the choice that will alter his life forever...

Currently undergoing revisions. If you find any inconsistencies, I'm aware of them and are trying to fix them.

If you choose to thumbs down, please, respectfully provide a reason. I can't improve as an author without reader support. Thank you for understanding.

This story is of how Fluttershy has so much rage and frustration built up within her that she transforms into a wrathful pony named Brevity Thrash. She turns from being a sweet pegasus into a vengeful and violent Alicorn. There is little her friends can do to stop her but in the end, the most unlikely of all characters is the one who reminds her of who she really is and causes her to transform back to being good.

The dream world is filling with chaos that even Luna, the Princess of the Night, cannot control. However for some strange reason, Fluttershy is the only pony that can travel between the two worlds. But much to her horror, Zecora discovers that it is a link in Fluttershy's past that can either be the lock that'll save them, or the key to its release...

The Bearers of the Elements of Harmony must investigate Fluttershy's link to the mysterious force attacking the dream world before the chaos leaks all over Equestria!
