It has been five years since she has seen them. But after five years of hiding with a secret in her arms, a visitor at her house urges her back home for a special occasion.
Rainbow Dash has kept some secrets, made some mistakes, and finally, she attempts to make amends. Easier said than done, but she has changed over the years; maybe she can prove it to everypony that she has.
Prereaders: Cold Spike and Midnight Spark
*I'm considering an epilogue, but it's not a top priority at the moment. So for now, the story is complete*
Chapters (17)
What's this? A multi-chaptered story by moi? That's new!
Yes, this is going to be long. I don't know how far I'll actually go, but with everything outlined and me having a good motivation to get this done, hopefully I'll stick around for this until the end.
We need a drama tag. I feel like the tags are lacking here. Slice of life? Maybe. But it's also a crap load of drama, too. I guess SoL will do, though. Enough complaining from me, though. Comment, rate, let me know what you think!
You now have my full attention. Have even more Pinkies!
We also need a mystery tag and a few others. Maybe a grading based on how dark/ sad a story should get, heh. Anyway I WANT MOAR!
Wow, now this has my attention, I'm confused on what the buck happened and who the father is but I'm impressed about how Rainbow Dash has a kid though but I'm suprised she can't fly, how odd...and you always need to add Derpy
Even if it's minor she's Derpy Hooves, I find it very hard to not see in her in a story
I'm down for this, you done real, real well....let's see how this turns out
Well that was unexpected
Wow, after heading back from a party, I come back with quite a lot of notifications. It's not so many compared to the hundreds people may get, but quite frankly, the fact I just started gives me faith this will go well, so I don't care. So thanks to all those who favorited, liked, etc, because this really made my day, even though it wasn't going so well halfway through.
1981942 So many Pinkie's...
1981944 With such positive reception this story has gotten, I'm very excited to get through the next chapter soon--maybe even by this weekend!
1982099 Well, I might as well make one thing clear. Rainbow Dash can still fly; she just decided not to at the time. However, I understand where you may get that, and that will be cleared up hopefully in future chapters. The next chapter may even help a bit.
1982180 I'm taking that as a compliment, so thank you!
1982521
Are you psychic or something? Hehe, I'm going to say you enjoyed in nonetheless, so thanks.
Luna this was good
Luna: but I didn't write it
Me: it's an expression Luna
Luna: Oh ok... You wanna go prank Tia?
Me: uhhh no thanks last time I ended up being turned bright pink for a week *shudders* now I get cold cuddlers asking me out on a date
Luna: well you did put hot sauce in Tia's cake and place it in the castles water supply
Me: crap this thing is still on....
1986066 Thank you. And hot sauce? I would have gone with rainbows.
But you didn't hear that from me.
Not just ordinary hot sauce
priceless
Pinkie Pies hot sauce
You should have seen the look on her face
*Rainbow Dash walks into the room her mane and tail dyed white*
Luna: what happened to you?
Dash: Tia caught me trying to sneak itching powder into her uhh.. What do yah call it? Reguli? Regio? Regalia! That it regalia yeah it didn't end well.... Hey do you think this dye is permanent?
Me:course it isn't
(I'm secretly feeling sorry for her becuase it is in fact permanent
)
It will be a while before the next chapter. Beyond this, I have much more to work on--not to mention that this week I will be really busy with stuff. Oh, well; school must come first for me, or else my life will be ruined!
... Okay, not really.
Adorableness is Dash's kryptonite
2004111 Cuteness is everyone's kryptonite!

the end
that's what would happen if this was a lifetime original
2004174
That was... something else. I, uh, appreciate the time you took to come up with that. 
2004157 Aww, thank you! Someday, I hope to have a fan art of Cobalt--once I learn how to draw ponies without them looking like shit.
2004185
it's because i'm right isn't it
this is a lifetime original movie
oh well i like it anyway ^-^
i can't wait for the next chapter
2004205 Well, let's save that kind of drama for Lifetime, why don't we?
2004218 Sure, if you want. You'd probably be better than me at it. Though if you need any information on his appearance (I think I added a good detail to him, though), let me know.
2004233 Yes, that's tan. Oh, and he has one blue streak in his mane. I guess I forgot to mention that... guess where he got his name?
Twilight and OC? Huh...sure, why not. And damn, poor Dash, glad she was able to talk toTwi though, but now I want to know who the father is so I could kick his ass!!!
And go, Streak!!!
Huh....I'm guessing Dash used to have a crush on Applejack from what I'm getting at. Hopefully Spike won't be with Rarity though
But that's my option, very impressed by this chapter though.
Also, I written two new stories if you willing to give them a look over
2004418 I will say nothing about what you wrote except there will be no SpikexRarity... if there's one pairing I can't stand, it's that one.
Spike: Oh, come on!
Heh. Sorry, Spike. As for the TwilightxOC thing, since there are seriously not enough stallions in Ponyville, especially not any ponies I find that have chemistry with Twilight IMO, Ink Blot was created! The only thing about this story is that there are a fair amount of OCs, not too many, thankfully, and only a few are kind of big characters, such as Cobalt.
2004442 I love you so much right now
And very true, just glad you did not use Big Mac, I'm not a fan of that pairing either and very well, I can understand that completely. For a second I thought you used Patchwork Inkblot's OC
Though I'm guessing you did not.
Huh....wonder what Celestia and Luna have to say about this?
Will the father be revieled?
Hey author man is the father someone we know ( assuming he is revealed that is)
2004515 I don't know Patchworth InkBlot, anyway. Pure coincidence (though I kind of hope this random author sees my story just for a laugh).
2004520 Yes, he will. I don't mind revealing this now because I feel it's inevitable.
2004943 Maybe, maybe not. Sorry, some things must be left unsaid for the sake of keeping things interesting.
Goodness, you readers are curious little fellows, asking me questions for this. I love it! I feel so happy that people want to know what goes on in my story rather than just skim through it. You all make my day, especially since this is now one of my best stories to date. If it weren't for school, I'd be very much focused on writing this.
2005098 Right, he's a great writer, I'm hoping he'll look at your work to
And working on chaprter five of Melting a cold heart as we speak
is the father an OC or a pony everyone know or a backround char.?
2005210 As I said above, who exactly he is will be kept secret until chapters to come. I won't even say if he is a familiar character or not to the fandom.
2004159. So CUTE *dies*
yay!! lol i bet it fluttershy but u sajd flew away from ponyville, so zecora maybe?
It is pretty good so far, and I am enjoying it.
2037648 You'll see.
2037822 Glad to hear it!
The only compliant I have about this story
Not nearly enough thumbs ups
2038198 *shrugs* Maybe someday. If not, I don't mind. Not only is this my most popular story, but there are no dislikes yet. What I don't like is that the featured box has stories that didn't have as much of a like/dislike ration as this (one even had 19 likes/1 dislike--I had that much with my story when it first started out. Gimme feature, please.
I'm being sarcastic, but still, you get the idea). I don't mean to complain, I'm sure it's a great story, but what I wouldn't give for some recognition just once. That's not too much I'm asking for, is it?
*sighs* But I really gotta quite whining about it. I'm just glad this is liked as much as it is. And we're not anywhere near done!
Ah, Pinkie got to love her, though I wish she would be more serious sometimes. And not bad with the OC, I like him...wonder what Spike's and Shining Armor's viewon him are not to metion the Gods that watch over Twi. Hmmmm.....I bet Rainbow is going to see Applejack, I seem to spot a little hint that she had a crush on her in later years, though I could be wrong. Very well written chapter though, I enjoyed it
2038866 Yeah, I might as well say Zecora has nothing to do with this.
2038963 Glad to hear it. Heh, I might as well make a betting space for this at this rate, with all these guesses.
*puts on visor and stands before a table* Place your bets here. Who will Rainbow Dash go see. Since I stated she's definitely not going to see Zecora, who will be it? Fluttershy? Applejack? Steve Magnet--
I just need more options, alright? It was the first name to pop my mind.
Shut up, he was awesome! With chapter four not exactly done, there's plenty of time to place your bets for the answer!
(Please no one make bets. I am not responsible for anyone's loss of money)
2039558 Huh, to each their own
No judgement here...may I ask why though?
2039641 Huh.....that does make sense.
Oh, by the way, there's a certain reference in the chapter for what I believe to be one of the funniest movies ever. First to get it gets bragging rights... or something.
Do you know when more will be finished? I am enjoying it. By the way, I think I saw what reference you were talking about, but I don't know where it is from.
2095516 I have a good majority of Chapter four finished, definitely by next week it should come out. I would have gotten it out far sooner; I just haven't been feeling well enough to write anything this week.
No worries, this will get done soon.
2095664
Good. This chapter was enjoyable, and I love Rainbow Dash as a mother. You get to see a side of a pony that you have never seen before.
2097111 I'm glad you enjoyed it. Chapter five won't be coming out for quite a while, since I don't have much done, but rest assured, with fans like you, I won't even consider leaving this too far behind.
2097122
well that was a wonderful chapter.
Wow...Applejack seems sort of pissed that Rainbow does not have the father with her, though I can understand why. Shit, poor Corbalt (think I spelled that wrong) falling through the clouds, honestly suprised that Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy or even Pinkie Pie has not settled down with somepony yet.
Though I see you used the words Goddesses, it seems my stories with the Gods of Equestria are rubbing off on you *Rubs hands evily* Good, good. Though I noticed a few errors but nothing major. Wonder where Spike is or what he is doing? ONTO THE NEXT ONE!
2099110 I thought that I should take time before having everypony be with somepony. Although I do have a plan for two particular ponies. *smirks evilly* I say nothing more on the subject! And if you notice any huge errors anywhere, please let me know.
2099186 I can agree with that and weeeeeee!!!!! Romance
Will do, Dark
This is great, I can't wait for some more exposition, keep it up!
You're kidding right? I for one am a big fan of Rarijack and would love to see more, though they were a bit harsh about it but damn, they are adults and should act as such, you know?
Only error I saw was tht you first said Day Light then Daylight, so which is it? As for Spike, personally in my eyes he is twelve in the show so five years later he would be seventeen, so how old would he be in your story?
Poor Spike though and Rainbow is very much true to who she is, you done really well though I'm starting to question Pinkie's bouncing...don't you think her bones would break, wear down or at least get very ached with all those years of bouncing? Eh, not important, I can't wait for more, you done real well
