"My name is Rainbow Dash, and I have the coolest family on the entire planet! Mother's Day is the awesomest holiday in the world because it reminds me of that..."

Princess Celestia—or Tia, as her sister prefers to call her—has a fairly simple life. Stay inside as much as possible, avoid making new friends, deal with the politics of Equestria, and try to care for her easily excited little sister. But life becomes slightly more difficult when a mysterious force takes over Equestria. Reluctantly, she's forced to go on a quest to discover the mysterious Elements of Harmony with her sister. Things become more complicated, though, when a third member joins their party.

Fluttershy's always hidden a secret from her friends. It's not a horrible, dark secret. In fact, it's nothing out of the ordinary, at least to everypony else: she's got an older brother.

Her brother, though, has always seems to best her when it comes to, well, everything. Tempers flare when he visits Ponyville, and Fluttershy finds herself wondering if she'll ever manage to be as good as him.

Scootaloo has never had the best luck. Her parents never seem to get along, she's moved seven times in her eleven years of life, and she'll never be able to be like other pegasi. But in the past year, things have been looking up for her. She's made friends, and it seems like she might be staying in one place for a little while.

Then, without any warning, her parents decide that the family will be living in Cloudsdale with Scootaloo's grandmother.

In her frustration, Scootaloo writes a letter to Rainbow Dash, never intending to send it . . . and to her surprise, chooses to contine writing. Over the course of several months, Scootaloo learns secrets about her family, her idol, and maybe even herself,

*This story takes place when Pound Cake is a foal, so Pinkie Pie and the Cutie Mark Crusaders have obviously aged as well. Just in case anybody was confused about that.*

Despite his good intentions, things always seem to end disastrously for Pound Cake. The last time he tried to bake, he practically killed his sister. And every time he tries to figure out what his special talent is, he ends up either hurting himself or hurting somepony else. Frustrated, he plans to head into the Everfree Forest, where he'll certainly be able to get his cutie mark . . . right?

He didn't plan on Pinkie Pie following him. And he definitely didn't plan on three other mares following him. The last thing he needed was for ponies to come with him--the point of going into the Everfree Forest was so that he wouldn't be able to hurt anypony else. But maybe those ponies are just the thing he needs to find out who he really is.

Guilt-ridden and lonely, Flim arrives at Flam's grave with the last three mugs of their cider, planning to spend the whole night drinking and crying. However, when a certain blue unicorn shows up, his night turns out differently than he expected . . .

As he and Trixie trade stories, Flim begins to wonder if, maybe, he doesn't have to be so lonely without Flam.

Pinkie Pie is a hyperactive pink earth pony. Scootaloo is a daring orange pegasus. What do they have in common? The dream of flight. After they run into each other (literally), Scootaloo is roped into Pinkie Pie's plan to help both of them fly.

This story contains VERY mild shipping at the very end, so I didn't rate it as romance.

After an incident at home, Fluttershy is sent to Summer Flight Camp. As she struggles to find out who she is and why everyone hates her, she meets a new friend—sort of—called Rainbow Dash, who allows her to forget what happened at home. Until Gilda comes back.

Applebloom finally gets her cutie mark. But what will her friends say when they find out she got it before them? And, more importantly, what will her family say about a cutie mark that isn't related to apples?

Sweetie Belle plans a special birthday surprise for Rarity, but no one is able to come. How can she show her love for Rarity?
I'm not super happy with this story, and it could probably use a few rewrites.
