Celestia's Academy for Gifted Unicorns.

The name has bothered Luna for the longest of times. She'd seen pony after pony stride in and out of the castle- coming in with dreams of working beside their princess and making their parents proud. But what kind of message did it send when they were not accepted? You're not gifted.

Luna chances upon a pony that might just be the friend she needs to get on her feet after the events of Nightmare Moon and restore the Element of Harmony long forgotten and long been kept from all the ponies who have gone unseen for all these years.

Luna's Academy for Forgotten Ponies.

This story is being revamped! It's been a whole year since I finished this story and wow it was a pleasure to write. But a year of writing and growing older hopefully has given me some new tricks up my sleeve to making this story more wonderful than I thought it was when I first wrote it.
A big thank you to everyone who enjoyed this story when it began, and I hope you are all looking forward to this in time.

Spike finally wants to tell Rarity about his feelings for her. But he feels to nervous to tell her directly, so he decides to get her a gift for Hearth's Warming Eve. While trying to find the perfect gift, some complications happen. Will Spike finally be loved by the pony of his dreams?

An ancient evil is about to rise from a third alicorn, and our only hope lies in the claws of a young dragon. Will he be able to stop this evil? Or will he die without telling the one he loves how he truly feels.

After a strange dream, Scootaloo tries to find out who her parents are as well as a few other questions. After several startling revelations, she starts to learn the events that have led to her being. How will she deal with it? Better read and find out!

(This story takes place before S3 E13).
During a stargaze with Rainbow Dash, there's a shooting star and Scootaloo makes a wish. What she didn't know at the time is that this wish would change her and Rainbow's lives forever.

After a terrible fire nearly claims the lives of the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Rainbow Dash has to seriously consider what it takes to be a sister when she has to face the prospect of disciplining the newly-adopted Scootaloo.

Nopony ever said that being a good big sister was gonna be easy.

Big props to Isseus and ShootingStar159 for pre-reading and editing.

The war of the Changelings was brutal, and it wrought the city of Canterlot in chaotic destruction. Chrysalis could feel her victory coming to a close, but something clicked in her heart. Funny how it happened, she usually doesn't feel remorse. Time to pay a statue a visit.

Author's Notes
~This is my 60 minute challenge story, and by Luna's sexy flank I can write a lot in that amount of time!
~This story is my interpretation of what could of happened while Twilight and company went off to search for the Elements of Harmony.
~Since this is a one chapter story I might not edit it for future purposes because in my mind. It won't be worth it in the end. Sorry if I disappointed you with that bit of news. Just kidding. I've just edited today on 12/11/12.
~Also, this story is a fast response to this video.
~OC tag for Lauren Faust as her pony is technically an OC.
Hope you enjoy!
