What is the price one is willing to pay to regain what they hold dear? The ponies of Equestria will have to question themselves as they’re thrust into the largest event in history. They’ll have to do the unspeakable, and possibly lose their peace of mind, if only to keep the lives they cherish so dearly the same.

There shall be no mercy.

Octavia Adagio is not enjoying her new home. Noisy neighbors, bad music, and middle school are just some of the items on her list of things she hates about her new Manehattan suburb. At least she has her music by her side; and as far as she’s concerned, that’s all she’ll ever need.

Or so she thought. Her first day of school turns into a doozy when a young unicorn with a penchant for talking decides to be her first friend. How will the normally refined tastes of Octavia mix with those of the arrogant Vinyl Scratch? I can tell you this; It probably won’t be pretty.

A chance encounter with a magical beast has robbed Rarity of her most precious belonging, and has also landed her an unwanted necessity. Now she has to learn to love and to care, or she'll never be able to go back to the life she once lived. A story of laughs, tears (not really), and learning about the things we care about most.
