Fluttershy has always been a caring and gentle mare who has always cared for her pony and animal friends, but when a mixup with Zecora leads to a fever induced terror, Fluttershy must come to terms with her true fears.

The world is a big place with big problems, and frankly, the Elements of Harmony can't always be there to fix it. When a dark magic threatens the Crystal Kingdom, Princess Cadance is forced to bring together six complete strangers into a group called the Elements of Love. Unfortunately, battling an unknown entity together may not be the easiest thing for a couple of strangers to handle...

Gave this an AU tag, since this story was written before the Crystal Empire backstory was established. Assumes that the Crystal Empire has always been there, and Cadance ruled for quite some time.

This story is a sequel to Furry Contraband

Respect is one thing. But with respect comes with responsibility, and when somepony needs something escorted out of Equestria, guess who's responsible for it?

Equestria's favorite smuggling duo, that's who.

It was only a matter of time before their exploits caught the attention of some very powerful ponies. And so, forced out of retirement, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy must embark on another foray into the frowned upon side of the law. Only this time, they aren't smuggling weasels...

This time, they're working for them.

Fluttershy’s got a teesy-weensy bit of a secret. Nothing too bad, mind you. She’s not a psychotic killer, and she definitely doesn’t do anything…dirty. Unfortunately, what she does still teeters on the rather…frowned-upon side of the law. And to make matters worse, with the Royal Guards clamping down, she needs somepony to help her out.

And that’s where Rainbow Dash comes in. Of course, soon she’ll realize doing a friend favor sometimes isn’t all that easy. Especially when that friend runs an illegal animal smuggling operation out of the country.

But hey, if she gets caught…she’ll still look pretty darn good doing it.

Many centuries before, there lived legends. The legends that are forgotten, and are buried, never to be found. Until one little determined unicorn will uncover the hidden secrets of the world.
