This story is a sequel to Big World! Big Adventures!

It is a hard day in Canterlot. After the loss of a loved member of the community, the funeral is today. As the rain falls and the clouds gather, the people of Canterlot wave goodbye to one of their own for the last time.

Partly inspired by One More Light, by MorpheustheDream, as well as She Changed my World, by Beanzoboy, and a tribute to the recently-deceased MythrilMoth. Rest in Peace, buddy.

Long before Luna betrayed her sister and became Nightmare Moon, another enemy came to Equestria. Its arrival was foretold with rain from the heavens and it wreaked havoc on the growing nation and its people. Much time has passed and the people of Equestria now live in ignorance of the ancient past. However, when its return brings disharmony, Celestia must now find a way to end the rebirth of a new war before her subjects become the new victims of a Massive World Threat.

Note: Outside a couple specific chapters, the bloodshed is limited and mostly only spoken of, and the suicide/self harm tag mostly refers to one scene and to a character's ongoing struggle with depression. Links to crisis lines are farther down in the story description and will be in any chapter that deals directly with suicide. Don't struggle alone. You are worth fighting for!

Each of Rarity's friends played a role in the Great War, serving with great honor in ending the tyranny of the Griffon Dominion. But Rarity? Rarity stayed. It wasn't her choice. Her friends insisted. And, in all fairness, they were probably right. Somepony needed to stay, and it made the most sense for it to be her.

Still, it never felt right.

Now the war is over, and scarred veterans are trickling back into their communities, surrounding Rarity with reminders of the price paid by her fellow citizens, and leaving her with a mounting guilt over the un-payable debt. So when Applejack asks Rarity to help get a member of her old unit back on his hooves after the war, the seamstress jumps at the chance to do her part. Corporal Iron 'Shoddy' Shod may be a little ... rough of manners for her tastes, it's true, but he's a hard worker, and Rarity is confident in her ability to help him. But when it becomes apparent that Shoddy has more to overcome than just his lack of decorum, Rarity will learn some deep truths about the price that some pay for freedom, and the wounds that don't stop with the flesh.

For it is often said that the hardest battle a veteran faces is the one he fights at home.

As this story contains graphic imagery of war, depression, and the struggle with suicide in certain chapters, I am placing a link to the Veteran Crisis line here, as well as links to the national suicide prevention hotline and a list of international hotlines. There is no shame in needing help. In truth, it is courageous to ask for it.

This story is set in an alternative universe that picks up after the end of Season 4. Thus, all events that follow Tirek's defeat either didn't happen or happened differently. The specifics will unfold with the story, but for now it suffices to say that the "Princess of Friendship" title became quite intertwined with international diplomacy in this world. Unless otherwise specified, it does not follow the canon of my other works.

In a different universe, a two-tailed fox named Miles was just testing out his new invention The X-Tornado. Something goes horribly wrong at take off...

Tails is from the same universe from Sonic Colors, Generations, Lost World, Forces, and Team Sonic Racing. All previous games will be mentioned.

Tails will be referred to as well. Tails as always. Though his real name Miles will be used once he starts making new Equestrian friends. That will change in the story later on.

An element from Sonic X will be in this story. The X-Tornado.

Tails is 9 years old in this story. And there is no shipping (As of now between Tails or another character from the mlp universe.). Sonic will be mentioned but no appearance will happen for a long time.

Set after during the events of Season 7. Events will be alerted by the main character. I will be extending into Season's 8 and 9 once Tails is adapted into Equestria.

Comments, opinions, and ideas are always welcome.

When Discord gets turned into stone the second time around, the Tree of Harmony, now older and far more developed, takes the opportunity to reform him. Fortunately, a suitable individual was available for the job.

Warning: contains man-to-mare content, but not by design. To make a long explanation short, the warning will likely apply to both those who dislike and like that sort of thing.

Scootaloo never wanted to come across as insecure, afraid or weak in any manner. She struggled with not being able to fly, and life's little misgivings would pile on top. It wasn't until she had a life-changing conversation with Fluttershy that she knew what to do to end the chapter of strife her insecurities had written in her life.

Slightly inspired by "All Over Now" by The Cranberries.

Scootaloo has found herself in a dark place. Rainbow Dash was always away on some trip for the Wonderbolts. Ms. Cheerilee was scolding her more and more about her lowering grades. Her friends were ignoring her. It seemed as though the world was against her. She was alone. How to solve this issue? Get mean, get bad, feel sad.

Long ago, Celestia and Luna's mother Queen Faust left a prophecy of a dangerous enemy which ponies and humans would need to work together to survive. Today, the kidnapped towns of Ponyville and Fallow Meadows, merged into Unity, contains humans, ponies, and many others working in harmony, albeit without knowledge of Faust's warning. But when the town of Arcadia Oaks is also taken, the Citizens of Unity will find themselves confronted with the Trollhunter's war with Gunmar. And just what exactly is Gandalf the Gray doing here?

The parallel universe is indispensable to fanfiction, even in stories where it isn’t addressed as fanfiction by it's nature takes a route that deviates from the established universe.
It allows for crossovers, mash-ups, what ifs, and all sorts of other fun stories.
My story begins in a nexus between universes, with a father who just wants to let his daughters meet their heroes, and finds himself charmed by the inhabitants once they’re no longer just characters to him.
With his knowledge he could fundamentally alter everything that happens; but his goal is for things to turn out the way they’re supposed to. But change is inevitable. Change for both him and the girls.
Things start light, but there are cracks that show the shadows cast. And secrets are not kept forever.
Relevant crossover tags that there aren't options for/I have far too many: Slayers, Dragon Ball Z, Tenchi Muyo, Monster Musume, Dungeons and Dragons, Minecraft, Undertale, Dark Souls
-- -- -- -- -- -- *** -- -- -- -- --
A father goes to great lengths to find his daughter’s heroes. And finds himself being drawn into the world.
But even the brightest light casts a shadow. And things that could too easily be are seen. Things that demand action. Things that must be confronted. Things that must be destroyed.
But not forgotten. So life can move on.
But scars never really heal. They remind us of who we were. But with help from your friends you can confront even your past to find hope.
However hope and caring can lead you down a dark path. But your friends will fight to see you again, and find their own reward in your smile.
Fire will burn all that it touches, ever seeking more fuel for it’s own survival. But with care that fire can be tamed to bring out it’s brightest light.
There are times where you can help your friends. And times where they must help themselves.
Never forget that those closest to you may be afraid to seek your help, or are unable to ask, or may even demand that you stay away.
But no matter what you stand beside them.
Because your friends are family you invite into your life.
