Rainbow Dash usually had her head in the clouds, but she always thought she knew up from down. When an incredible revelation sends her life into a tailspin, she finds herself at the mercy of emotions she never thought she had, faced with hard questions and impossible choices.

Life is full of changes, but none of them are quite as disturbing as having a horn pop out of your skull…

Original Lauren Faust canon; non-alicorn Twilight, non-alicorn Cadance, no ascension. Diverges from the cartoon after season 3, with nods to later continuity wherever possible. Contains mature themes.

"Love is stronger than death even though it can't stop death from happening, but no matter how hard death tries it can't separate ponies from love. It can't take away our memories either. In the end, love is stronger than death." -Anonymous

Death changes everything. Some things will never go back to the way they were. The Apple Family knows this well, and has to relearn that lesson.

Princess Luna vanished during the siege against Canterlot. She watched from her crystal ball as Celestia was defeated, only for the magic of love to drive the changelings out of Canterlot. While the changelings suffered from their loss, Luna went to Chrysalis to offer her a gift she couldn't refuse.

Avon “Anonymous” Smith has a small talk with Pinkie Pie at the end of all things.

What happens when all the colors fade? When Rainbows turn grey? What happens when the Rainbow you gave your whole life to disappears? Sometimes, even though it seems that the colors in your world may have vanished, all you need is a friend to bring them back.

Twilight Sparkle finds the answers to these questions when one of her closest friends passes on, even though it seemed like a living nightmare, she finds that it has opened her friends and her very own eyes that true friends transcend even death itself.

I am not doing anymore changes to this story (except for grammer and spelling). I feel that this story was written with most of my sorrow thrown into it so I don't want to spoil that.

Years before the liberation of the Crystal Empire, King Sombra invites six citizens to feast in his castle on the last night of each month. Seldom few are ever seen again. Now a young pegasus who will become known as Guest Number Five has been invited to dine with the King, although his own plans for the night might just lead to everyone's salvation.

Five courses. Three chapters. Served up over three nights.

Sunset Shimmer is homeless and living in an old abandoned warehouse with no power and a leaky roof with almost nothing to her name, not even her favorite jacket after it was destroyed during the Fall Formal. With the school closed down for the holiday and her so called friends too caught up in their own holiday plans they don't realize Sunset not only doesn't have any...but she has no place to get food with the school closed.

Going to a close by community center Christmas Eve to get a hot meal they were giving the homeless and those down on their luck, Sunset runs into the family of the last person she expected to see there...

Who is Discord? We all know him as a sinister embodiment of chaos and disharmony, but what was he before that?

This is the journal he kept over the many years of his life, in which we will find a story not many know. Perhaps, in the end, Discord is not the bad guy after all.

Anon does not like Equestria.
It's not that life there is too hard for him, quite the opposite.
The ponies have been generous enough to provide him with clothing, shelter, and more food than he could possibly eat.
And he hates it.
In this new world everything he had learned has suddenly become useless.
All he can do now is mooch off of others.
And to top it off some stupid retard decides to crash into him
