This is a story about Luna breaking her nose.

Rated T for bloody gauze and imagery.

Editorial assistance by Mountain Bell.

For the record, if anyone is curious as to the conversations involving blood in the comments, a topic concerning blood in E rated stories was brought up before this story was published. I tried to submit it as an E rated story, but it was rejected by an unnamed mod who thought that the use of blood in this story was too excessive for the rating. Please feel free to add your own input as well.

This story contains NO humans. I just liked the art. On the night after a world record setting hot day in Coffin Valley, a band of colt scouts gather around a campfire to hear the legend of what happened on a similar day seventy years ago...

This story is a sequel to The Tailor and her Recurring Customer: Part 1

The ends justify the means, and all actions are acceptable if done in the act of preserving the state.

This story is the standalone sequel to The Tailor and her Recurring Customer. Prior reading is not required.

Rarity thought of herself as just a simple tailor in a small town with dreams to become big. But, with recent events and incidents that have changed her life, she must reassess what she truly is, and the weight her role as one of the Elements of Harmony carries.

Thanks to Rustling Leaves and Blagdorass for proofing. Also, I would like to thank the editors of Editors R Us, Dave the Brony, AndyGrey and FillyPhill for editing.

It's that time of year again. Like every other time she had experienced this anniversary, Celestia simply wishes to forget about everything, but some things cannot be simply forgotten.

Special thanks to Washingtonian for editing, and mondo thanks for Twilight_Crow for ripping it apart and fixing absolutely everything that was wrong.

Oh, and apparently, I did something good, because I was featured on the same day that I posted it. 8/29/13

Now that it was featured, i should add that I did not make the original coverart. It was made by this guy, for his own story, but, with permission, I took his image and used a photo editing app on my phone to change it to how I wanted it.

Rarity Belle is a successful Businessmare In Ponyville. From wedding dresses to costumes, sundresses to business attire, she has made masterpieces for each and every one of her customers that fills them with awe and wonder at her talents while still maintaining affordable rates.

Rarity had serviced many customers in the past, but there is one in particular that is unlike any other...

Thanks to Diarch and Jeffcvt for looking at the first chapter.

Also, I will be posting the misc. Other openings and endings within the next few days. These sections are not "alternates" as in they are different canon or changing of events, but instead different places to start the story.

Keep your open for part 2!

Luna has returned from her punishment, and her sister has welcomed her back with a smile and open heart….. But is there has been something brewing behind the elegant white Princess of Equestria. Something that she had been planning for far too long, and tonight is the night when she finally does it…

It’s not perfect, there may be a few minor mistakes, but the story is not the point... but the message is.

As Per Comet Burst's suggestion, This was an april Fool's joke that i have been waiting to post but could not free up my editors so i edited the majority myself Overall the idea is that of satire, and all the downvotes based only upon the title only prove my point.

I wrote this story as a message to what the fandom has become, babied.
We are becoming too sheltered to try things that are original, often just piggybacking off of other peoples successes for safety at the cost of creativity.
I wrote this in the image to fool people into thinking it was a troll fic or a bomb. But from the blatantly obvious evidence to the contrary slipped by them because they were too intent on judging this book by its cover rather than being fair or seeing what was past the paper thin disguise of what the story was.

Hopefully some people will learn, and to my surprise, I have more likes than dislikes, something I was not anticipating, further giving me hope that our fandom can change.

I am using the adventure tag because FIM does not have a tag for what this story truly is, a thriller.
Maple Leaf and Maple Syrup live in a cabin in the Everfree Forest.
Every night they lock up the cabin, creating a sanctuary amongst the dangers around them.
But what would happen when a new predator enters their simple world, one that they had no hope of escaping?
