This story is a sequel to Ghosts in the Code

**Inspired by the song of the same name by Aviators ft. Princewhateverer.**

That day was like any other... a nice enough day, all told. I made my patients feel better, my bills were paid, and I wasn't going hungry. Being a counselor in a happy town like Ponyville isn't an easy job, and my life is rough. At the end of the day, though, I make ponies happy, and that's what matters. I'd lived a peaceful life there for the past three years, and it was a content one. I'd have been happy there. But that day... that day, one that should have been like any other, everything went upside-down. My name is Bright Dawn, and this is my story.

I'll add character tags relevant to a chapter a week after they air, as to avoid the spoiling of the thingstuffsomethingorother. Also my first story with a female protagonist. We'll see how this goes.

Comments of the supportive/constructive variety are highly encouraged! (Just don't mindlessly flame me and we'll be good.)

[Gore] Tag just to be safe.

While this is the 'sequel' to Ghosts in the Code, it isn't required reading. After all, it was a retroactive prequel.
