The speaking of rhymes. Zecora has never spoken without rhyme, but... what happens when she can't rhyme?

Most ponies don't understand how Vinyl Scratch and Octavia, two ponies who seem to each live in their own world, could become best friends. That's because most ponies don't know how much Vinyl has helped and shaped Octavia into the mare she is today. Every so often, Octavia will remember the hard times she had while in the Academy and remind herself just how much Vinyl has done for her.

Author's notes:
This story is sort of a spin-off from my story An Octave Higher. Reading An Octave Higher is recommended but not required.

I got the idea for this story after reading HowXu's comic and seeing how perfectly it fit with my other story, I decided to turn his comic into a fanfiction! I hope you enjoy it!

Cover art and full inspiration from HowXu's comic "Why is she your friend?"

Proofread done by JohnPerry, Bronymaster and writer

A unicorn looks down upon an ant and thinks about his doom. What is a spark of light in a form so tiny and lowly? Its growth is but insignificant to his own, so why watch it? Why not just walk on down his own path to survival?

Those not born with the ability all dream of a chance, if only for a few moments, to fly.

Even if he is merely a tortoise with a simple mind, Tank was no different that the millions of other dreamers that covet the sky. Ever since his Yellow Mistress helped him hatch from his egg, he always marveled at those who have the capabilities.

As of yet though; he has not appeared at any of the pet play dates, nor has The Blue Mistress. If anything, the two are rarely even seen together. Concerned, Owlowicious attempts to consult with Tank whist they fly regarding the matter. The two have grown close since Tank has been fitted for the peculiar contraption strapped about his shell, despite their differences.

Immortality doesn't just mean losing every pony close to you. It also means watching the world crumble to dust.

Featured on Equestria Daily June 16th, 2012.

Not so long ago, Equestria barely defeated two almost unstoppable creatures known as humans, which they called the Second and the First. Almost five years later, another one has shown up. The military takes up arms, the princesses are stricken with fear, and the Elements of Harmony assemble, ready for battle. But 'the Third' has no idea what's going on, and only wants to know how he came to be here, and how to get back home. Good questions indeed...But will he ever get his answers? Or will his predecessors' legacy catch up to him first?
