In the middle of the Everfree forest, Soarin saves Spitfire from the brink of death after she was attacked by a Manticore. However, their horrifying ordeal is far from over when they realize that they have no clue how to find their way out of the forest. How they find a way to survive in such a hostile environment, while being injured and lost?

I like this so far
Insta-fav-and-thumb-up, I really hope this story will be featured!
Pretty good story, I am interested to see how this is going to play out. Tracking a rated my good sir, kindly continue.
That was great! Good job. I shall track and thumbs up.
Let's see where this heads. Soarin X Spitfire fics are quite rare.
Ill read it tomorrow checking for mistakes. I really enjoyed this opening chapter and can't wait to see where you go with it. Chheers.
This is getting good.
I've enjoyed it so far. Good work.
Yay another chapter!
The action sequence was well written. Good job solstice. I've enjoyed the story thus far.
Nail/Claw? I'd say claw. Good chapter, enjoyed it.
Couple of typos I found while reading:
able t dink - Able to drink.
hid hooves - his hooves.
Cute chapter, and overall well written. There's a few things I could nitpick on, but overall i've enjoyed the story. Deserves more comments than it seems to get.
I like this story about a couple that only when the other is injured do they realize how much they mean to each other. It's very d'awww. I think this fic is underrated as well. I would like to see a little more on Soarin's perspective on things.
309831 Okay, I shall fix those errors once I have the time. Yeah, I've put in a crazy amount of work in this fic and the lack of views has been extremely discouraging to say the least...
310086 I will keep that in mind once I can edit the next chapter.
311383 It might be small and I can't speak for others, but I enjoy it. Finally decided that it deserved a thumbs up too.
Keep up the good work
Very nice story, you'd better give Soarin a pie though at the end.
Looking good so far. Hope to see more soon. Too few fics with these two.
Their journey is almost over and the two have a bond that is stronger than ever. I'm hoping for a happy ending after all the horror those two had to face in the Everfree.
Story is continuing on quite nicely. Enjoying it thus far!
350533 Oh, I'll fix that right now. Thanks!
Removed the edit since it's fixed now. Really though, i know i've said it quite a bit, but this story is really good Solstice. It deserves more praise than it gets
This story is really great. Keep up the awesome work!
I was just wondering what happened here: "to see that the sun >was up from the light ??? shining through"
I'm not sure if you forgot to delete any pre reader marks or such, but I just thought that I'd let you know.
Very good story.
Those two combined probably don't even have enough strength to fight off a Manticore which is blind, deaf, and 2 feet tall.
351623 I kind of rushed to get this chapter out, so I may have accidently skipped ssome of what my pre-reader edited for me
Nice work here. Hope these two make it out fine.
Good job mate. Liking this a lot so far.
This chapter convinced me. Anyone that can convincingly pull off Zecora's speech deserves a thumbs up.
411256 Pulling off her rhyming while making it related to the story was half the challenge of making the chapters with her in it. Thank you, I'm very relieved that it was convincing, lol.
This story is great. I'll be waiting anxiously for more.
Damn. Dayum. DAMN! THIS IS AMAZING! 2nd best shipping pair. Right behind SpitDash!
This is not complete! Lies! Lies I say!
yay new chapter!!!
514233 Sorry for the wait! Hope you enjoy!
514468 seconded.
Damn these cliffhangers. I need more!
Squee an update! I hope they survive.
...
Might need to go proofread this a bit more before publishing the chapters...
But other than that, it looks like we're finally getting close to the end...
Hey solstice awesome an update! I honestly had come to believe that you had stopped workinng on or had deleted this story. It truly is one of the best soarin and spitfiire fics. If you want me to edit this tomorrow I wouldn't mind. Its just quite late here and I'm typing from my phone. Thanks again for working on this some more, and don't leave us hanging with this chapters end for too long!

I proofread a lot alongside my friend, if you've found mistakes, please message me them...
516331 don't worry, I won't take as long this time! I've just had some personal troubles in life that have prevented me from having much time or motivation to write.
I spotted numerous errors in here, that i thinkg were left while trying to figure out words, like two random places had a question mark near it. But other than that, great chapter.
523080 I rushed once I had it edited, because I hadn't updated in a while, the question marks are from my pre-reader when he was editing, I must have not noticed them when i quickly skimmed through it before I posted it. I'll edit it asap.
Don't rush. It's better for a reader to wait for a while between updates on the story, than have a rushed out chapter that could be better.
Just post a small update in the story itself like a "Hey all a quick update" chapter and just explain that the story is still alive, it's just taking awhile. Obviously not word for word that, but just telling us you haven't forgotten. It's a lot easier knowing that you're still alive and working in a quick update of your life than a rushed out chapter.
This probably made no sense...
523096 That made perfect sense, my friend did that exact thing on his own story. Thanks!
Awesome chapter! Really great one this time around; I'm looking forward to more!
On another note: The errors next to your pre reader's "?" comments are still there. You could just do ctrl+F to find them. One suggestion that I have is that you should have your pre reader use a different character to leave comments rather than "?". Use something that you would normally not use when writing such as "~" or ">". This way when you skim through it, you'll be able to spot them much quicker and more effectively.
Anyways, keep up the awesome work!
Why is there no more ;-;
We need more!
653847 The final chapter is being released very soon!
Yay! Story complete~! Good work, haha. I noticed a few mistakes in the part I didn't get to edit.
Coltfriend not boyfriend.
Capitalize 'h'.
- lacking a quotation mark.
And you missed a ' after Soarin' in one place.
All in all, I was really happy to be 'on board', I love pre-reading =D
