Twilight has been in love with Rainbow Dash for quite some time now, and plans to tell her on their next trip: A resort to Mount Everhoof. The disaster that follows may force her to confess earlier than planned... or take that secret to the grave.

Once upon a time, a fateful visit from Canterlot High students changed Camp Everfree -- and its owners -- forever. Or, at least, Gloriosa assumed that it would. Briefly becoming a megalomaniacal plant monster, and subsequently regaining ownership of the camp that had been her home all her life, surely would've marked a turning point in her life, right?

Several years later, Gloriosa stands on the dock by the lake, hoping her faraway brother will pick up her call. She's had a bad day. Again.

Once, Fluttershy was a humble citizen of Ponyville, one with a kind heart and a love for animals. However, that changed when Iron Will came into town. Her submissive and timid personality changed and soon she was asserting her will over everypony else. After insulting her friends, she realized what she had become. Fearing what she might do next, she left Ponyville for good.

Her luck changed when she came across a nice little village, one where everypony was Equal.

One year of a pleasant life in this town later, she writes to her old friend, Twilight Sparkle, asking her to visit.

After the defeat of Pony of Shadows, Somnambula returned to her old village. She doesn't quite feel at home in this new world where she feels out of place and where almost nothing is familiar to her.

Turns out that the sphinx hasn't changed much either, and can really hold a grudge.

Willow and Shield led a rather normal life, nothing out of the ordinary. Until one night, strange sounds wake them out of their slumber. What are they to do with the young foal they have found?

Please forgive my inconsistency with the childrens vernacular. I feed on feedback so please leave comments, good or bad.

Violence and death tags are there to warn but violence does not play a major role in story nor do they have anything to do with one another.

While trying to fix Starlight's meddling with time, Twilight winds up face-to-face with herself. As she prepares to leave, her other self tries to persuade her to stay and help save this version of Equestria. And her other self makes some pretty compelling arguments.

No Wonderbolt is left forgotten, nor are their family members left in the dust. Even when hard times hit, they'll always be there for their own.

Twilight did not wake up to a bad day. It happened after she hears of something new and absolutely horrifying.

Needless to say, she does not take it well...

(Not what you might be thinking. Or is it? We'll see...)

Note: I make no apologies for this story.

Tavi is gone. One day, she packed up all her things and left. Now I'm all alone, and I don't know what to do with myself. There's an ad in the newspaper promoting an experimental program called Project Rita. It says that it allows ponies to see the future of their relationships in alternate realities. Perhaps I could use it to see Tavi again?

Discord never betrayed Equestria for Tirek, aiding in returning the magic to all the drained unicorns. As a result, Celestia deems him ready of a "small" gift: The Archduchy of the Everfree, technically making him the highest noble under the princesses.

Naturally, this shocks everypony, including Discord himself. Now of course his lands will some have some chaotic magic and strange laws in effect, but that doesn't mean he doesn't take the noble thing a little seriously. Why is anypony's guess, but it'll be entertaining to watch.
