Tragedy strikes us all when we least expect it. Not only do we have to deal with the loss of someone in our lives, we have to deal with the loss of the pieces of ourselves that were taken away along with them. Bic Macintosh has had a year nopony would ever want to live through. When he realizes he hasn't really been living and just going through the motions he realizes he's not alone in his sorrow. With help, he doesn't have to hurt and find the road to healing on his own.

One could say that Ponyville is a sanctuary. Another could say that Ponyville is a place for discovering one’s hopes and dreams. Scootaloo was a young Pegasus, beautiful and unique in her own ways. She had no Mother or Father to help her along. Her friends were always there for her, but her depression often outweighed their efforts. Her nights were spent alone with no pony to comfort her. Happiness was only found when she thought of her one dream coming true, to fly as high as the sky would let her. She wanted nothing more than to be like her hero, Rainbow Dash. It was a dream that could not be made a reality however.

In post-apocalyptic Equestria, Scootaloo makes a new friend.

We trained her.
We taught her.
We raised her to godhood.
She brought us down to earth.

In all the time they’ve been together, the Cutie Mark Crusaders have never seen Scootaloo’s home or family. Why? The speculation is as wild as their crusade ideas! But today, the truth comes out, as they finally meet Scootaloo’s family.

This story is about Scootaloo's life growing up, being raised by a nice stallion that took her in when he found her in an alleyway.

When the CMC come up with an idea of how to get their cutie mark, all of them go to their sisters. Scootaloo goes to the closet thing she has to a sister, Rainbowdash, and they start to form a very close bond.

While Twilight and everypony else, who has now been discorded, look for Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie suddenly get separated from the group. And since they're discorded, they don't want anything to do with each other...until Fluttershy finds something from her foalhood that she let Pinkie have years ago and in doing so, realizes her feelings for the party pony.

This is the prequel to the story Completely Different and is a rewriting of The Return of Harmony.

A PinkieShy story with a slight Sonic crossover.

What happens to you when you die? Do you go to an afterlife like heaven and meet a god? Do you go to Hell and receive eternal punishment? Maybe reincarnation where you live again? Or do you just rot in a hole in the ground?
What about becoming trapped in a foal's mind in a world inhabited by magical talking ponies? Nah, that's just silly.
...
Well I've been wrong before.

Follow the life of a man as he has to experience life once more from birth to death. Only one thing its not his life, and he isn't in control of the body.

Pinkie had decided to tell Fluttershy about her feelings, but the problem is, she doesn't how to tell it...
