In an attempt to make the butterfly migration more fun for Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy challenges her to a game of catching butterflies. But when one particularly ornery butterfly decides to tease Dash, things get personal.

As Apple Bloom escorts a drunken Applejack home, Applejack decides to tell her the story of how Equestria came into existence and how ponies were made.

What little of it she can remember, anyway.

When Scootaloo asked Rainbow Dash, the Rainbow Dash, for a flight lesson, she never expected her hero, the coolest pony in Ponyville, to say yes. But an offhoof comment from Rainbow casts doubt on Scootaloo's dedication to her idol. How will she reconcile her own passions with her desire to be just like The Dash?

This will endup being 3 maybe 4 parts long unless I get crazy ideas in the meantime.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, except when you're a princess and you don't have time in your schedule to go see a doctor. Good thing Twilight has friends like Rarity to make sure she takes care of number one.

A thousand years is a long time for sisters to be apart. Celestia begins to feel again with a part of her heart that went numb all those night ago, but her little sister's return feels almost too good to be true. Luna may feel insecure in an Equestria different than the one she remembered but she now knows how much Celestia missed her...and how much she missed her big sister.

Twilight Sparkle is scared to death of snakes. So much, in fact, that she is afraid to even go anywhere near the Everfree Forest by herself. Sometimes, she won't even leave the library, and makes up other excuses to stay at home. After a total disaster is caused by her ophidiophobia, Fluttershy, the animal expert, takes it upon herself to break Twilight of her irrational fear and teach her that snakes are nothing to be afraid of. Unfortunately, the yellow pegasus has no idea what she has gotten herself into...

"I created the Tantabus to give myself the same nightmare every night. To punish myself for the evil I caused as Nightmare Moon.

Luna is forced to face the consequences of keeping her feelings of self-loathing hidden, in the form of her very angry sister.

Twilight always knew AJ was a strong pony- she just never realized her strength was far more than physical.

Shortly after the defeat of Nightmare Moon, Celestia comes to Luna with a question, one that has haunted her for a thousand years. She wants a full and honest answer, no matter how hard the words are to hear.

Of course, sometimes words just aren't enough. Some things in life can only be seen.
