Eight years, it's not even a full decade, it seems like such a small chunk of time, but so much can happen in eight years. For Twilight sparkle those eight years are non existent. An accident put her into a coma and now eight years later, she's finally waking up. Now she has to deal with everything that happened in a world that has forgotten what happened, a world that feels alien to her. Can she find a place for herself in this new world or will it trample her.

Chapters (10)
Yay, an update!
Ya should take that 'hiatus' tag off, unless of course you're planning on stopping it sooner or later... but never mind that.
This surely will come out in later chapters, but did Rainbow have a crush on Applejack and just decided to kiss her, or did/still have crush on Twilight and just kissed Applejack to make Twilight jealous in some twisted way that would make her go for Rainbow instead of staying with Applejack?
My logic may seem a little off there...
3161458 its one of the things I need to clear up in a later chapter, I honestly don;t remember which I had but I have some plans for that, but I don;t give spoilers
I still don't understand how this story has so fiew views?
Its so good and enjoyable and every end of the chapter leaves you in anticipation for the next one.
Like always, awaiting the new chapter
3265979 I have one avid fan, that's good enough fer me
Whoa, added 10 hours ago and I only notice it now...
This was a really deep and moving chapter, now lets see how Twi manages to deal with the new idea of "starting over"
I like how the only glaring mistake I noticed was in the authors note: "threw" should be "through".
Onto something that makes me seem less cynical, I doubt that if I was in Twilight's situation that I would be able to articulate my plight so eloquently. I would probably just be a mess of sobs and incoherence.
3409059 Thanks for the note, not sure how I missed that. As for the eloquent thing, wouldn't make for as good a story and she's had time to work it out, or at least in my head she has. Glad yer liking the story and thanks for the comment, I don;t get enough of them so I am always glad to get the feedbacks.
3410399 I excuse Twilight's reply as she is Twilight, and her brain is like a supercomputer.
3411012 there's that too
Ah yes, long awaited update on this story
What I like about this is the fact that it hits some very nice spots when it comes to feelings, every chapter had this so far and its working out great.
I hope you don't mind if I point out few spelling mistakes..?
I think it should be "you AND Apple Bloom"
"chair" and "cloud THAT floated"
father*
ON Twilight's lap*
I don't think I would be able to do this without them being present* Kind of fits more, wouldn't you agree?
It hurt too much to say here*
Since its 8 am in the morning and I haven't slept yet, its possible that I have missed something but I think that this was all there was.
So, as always, awaiting new update with anticipation, can't wait to see Twi and Spike moment
3805504 thank you for pointing out the errors, all but the last one were adressed. Not sure were you where going withthe last one. As always glad you like
i see you update but i must ask... if you are still updating then why does it say On Hiatus
i hope you are making more chapters soon
3832929 is on hiatus because I haven't changed it. It will be officially of hiatus soon. Also, its almost done, after nearly 3 years I know how I want to end it, so yes more chapters are coming.
3833901
WOOT! i can live with that!
oh wait its already off of Hiatus lol
Should change the"write" to"right", unless he was having trouble spelling the word "write", in that case carry on.
3853937 which chapter is that in.
3805591
'too' instead of 'to', I would assume.
I hope to god that that incomplete tag isn't a mistake and you aren't ending it here. I swear if you end it here you will have ruined a brilliant story.
Something like this... deserves an ending so much better than that. I'm not saying that because I wanted the Twidash or a happy ending, I'm saying that because if that's all you wanted to make of this story it would've been better to just write a one shot. You didn't need to drag it out like you did.
Tell me that incomplete isn't a mistake like I've seen so often in the past. Tell me there is going to be more.
3879603 yees, feel the fear of not knowing
3880159
I'd call it more of a desire to not hate a brilliant story that could be easily ruined should you choose the wrong path for the setup than fear.
But at the very least there is going to be another chapter. I guess I'll see where it goes. The lack of a tragedy tag is promising, though.
in the last chapter Twi said she never had a special someone before but here with her dad they talk as if she has had a few or at least one other
just thought id point that out... unless i missed something somewhere
3900460 think of it this way, she tried to but her dad either scared them off or she was to scared to try. Not long after bad things go down and so she locks herself away. Sure tried but never succeeded.
3901072
ok i accept this.
but not what Twilight is doing at this moment... not... happy...
....still an amazing story though... im glad you have finally got to continuing it, and i hope for more soon!
3901261 editing and prereads in progress and waiting on cover art from a friend.
I've been waiting for this a long time and all I have to say is that was fantastic bravo good sir bravo
3943509 thank you, not only for enjoying it but sticking with it till the end. I just wish I had finished it sooner.
Quit trying to move me to tears! It's not working!
That was beautiful!
Oh! Who am I kidding?
Oh wow, I'm just so at lost for words. When I first found this story I was very interested, I couldn't wait for more, by then you did the update. I was a little sadden to see the chapters before leave but the rewritten( is that the right word to say?) Chapters turned out to be more interesting. And now that its finish, I might just go re-read this whole story again, this is one of many TwiDash story's I love, and also one of many I couldn't wait to read to the finish. Amazing work and I'm glad I stuck around for this long. :3
I read the original and waited for more...
Thank you for all of it! 
then the rewrite started and I loved it as well.
Now the final chapter... at first I was not happy then as I read just a bit more, and I was happy you did not do what I was afraid you where going to do!
I loved this!
-lucky RD still felt the same after so long being gone-
Beautifully written, though grammatical errors do throw off the feel of the piece.
*ahem*
CALLED IT
Sorry, but the title mixed with how the story has gone so far.... yeah, totally called it.
Anyway, the writing here was pretty good, though there are quite a few grammatical errors that wreak havoc on your flow and immersion. The emotions here are done fairly well, though I can't help but feel a bit... under appreciated.
Twi's been gone for three years, leaving her friends to thin she was dead. When she shows up there are a few emotions every their should feel. They should be happy and down right joyful, obviously, they should be shocked out of their minds, and, occasionally above all else, those closest to her (ie Rainbow, but not necessarily just her) should feel anger and mild hatred. Seriously, after all she put them trough... yeah, at the very least Rainbow would be a little angry with her. As would Spike, for breaking her promise. I get the whole "It doesn't matter; you're back now" argument, but there will always be that slight anger unless it's dealt with and - rambling now, gonna stop.
Other than that, I can't help but feel they'd all be crying, which you didn't say, and that they'd all ask question much more quickly and not quite as orderly as you had them. To the point where Twi wouldn't be able to even hear them all.
But it was still a good chapter and a pretty good ending.
Absolutly loved this story. I like your writing style pleasi continue
3944298 out of everything wrong with this story you pick that complain about, gotta say that pleases me. I'm not being mean either, There is plenty wrong with this fic in my eyes and that rates pretty low on the list. I could explain it away but yer right in for the most, coulda been more years all around save maybe RD who's busy trying to figure out the tonsil hockey. I'm glad you loved the story and stuck it out

3944213 all of you, thank you for the love with my story
Beginning of the chapter: I HATE YOU I HATE YOU GO DIE
End of the chapter: I FREAKING LOVE YOU.

oh never mind thank you 
3265979 I'd say it was the lack of internal consistency(the way the author keeps contradicting themselves) and the many errors... but to see that people would have to read it and thus give it views.
You don't have to have a "special some pony" to be gay. She could have just dated and never had a serious relationship.
I... I have not cried in longer than I can remember. This nearly changed that. For AJ to show such devotion, going as far as giving herself up so the one she loves may live, that speaks to me. It is rare I see such a thing in writing, but it has never failed to hit me hard.
So sad
Start of the chapter how could you do that to twi
End of the chapter love so much

Stand by for orbital friendship cannon.

This entire story's a shocker!

You have cheered my day after I read this feels inducing chapter(s)
TWILIGHT!! DON'T YOU DARE!!
You don't know how much I love this chapter
NOW. You have to make a sequel!
6637239
mwahahaha
Yep. Wow.
Love it.
Hoo boy. That one took hold of the heart and didn't let go.
I know it was kinda necessary to keep the tone even, but since the ending here was a little too easy I'd kinda like to see a bonus chapter with Fluttershy going off the handle on Twilight for doing that to everypony
