The Red Parade


Cars are still parked outside. If the rapture had happened, why was it unrecognizable? Why was the sky blue? Why did no one tell me? Do these things not announce themselves?

Lightning Dust's lived a successful life. She's a hero of Amareica, a top tier Wonderbolt, and a legend among her friends. But nothing she does will ever bring Octavia back.

It's been seven years since Lightning Dust's wife died. That's about to change.

Originally written for a Sofa and Quills Speedwriting Contest where it placed third. The story was conceptualized and written in the span of an hour with the themes 'Dream' and 'No Way Home.' The original version is the second chapter, the first chapter is an extended version written after the contest.

Yep, this one was a oneshot contest submission that people apparently really enjoyed, so I added on to it and threw it on my account.

Really liked this one mate! As I said in the contest, it's got so many twists and turns, and despite the tense action it still maintains an air of tenderness throughout. It's so original and imaginative too!
You smashed it :twilightsmile:

I like this new ending. I'm not sure which version I prefer better- they're both so good, so well executed!

Thank you! This story’s actually given me some ideas for possible spinoffs/it’s own universe.
