We all have dreams, goals, and ideas. We all want for something, want to ascribe to be something. But… what happens once you’ve achieved that goal? What do you do if you’ll never achieve that goal? If circumstances in life prevent you from ever being able to do the thing you love?

Two ponies, two friends, each have to deal with a different version of that question. But maybe they can find the answer together, and maybe, just maybe, they’ll find something else as well.

Twilight Sparkle has been imprisoned for the murder of King Sombra in retaliation to the murder of her own brother. Locked away in solitary confinement with no visitation for nearly half a year, Twilight begins to believe that she's all alone, that is until Rainbow Dash sneaks into her cell on Hearts and Hooves Day.

Based on real life events. Inspired by "Painkiller" as made famous by Three Days Grace, "Say it ain't so" as made famous by Weezer and "Behind Blue Eyes" as made famous by The Who. Dedicated to someone very special to me.

Story One of the upcoming Painkiller Series

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy have had a rocky relationship, with ups and downs over the course of years, and Rainbow's ready to call it quits for good. As she stands at the door, willing herself to knock, there's something holding her back: she's still in love. Love alone isn't enough to make it work, but as their relationship threatens to end forever, they have one last chance to make sense of it all.

And Rainbow Dash can't stop remembering.

A lot has happened since Celestia and Luna disappeared nine hundred years ago. There are no wars, no diseases, no pain, no death. Princess Twilight, Discord, and Spike do everything to ensure that the utopia continues.

But even the most ideal paradises have ponies that wish it wasn't so.

Story inspired by Mister Saugrenu’s artwork 1000 Years in the Future.

Apple Bloom is tired of being on her own. With time stopping for nopony and a great, bright beacon calling to her, the little earth pony makes one of the hardest decisions of her life, and embarks on one last crusade with her friends.

However, one friend is not so quick to accept the truth. Can a certain little white filly learn to cope with the thing she fears most - saying goodbye?

"We have to be brave now, Scootaloo," Dash said. "Just close your eyes, and it'll be all over by the time you open them again."

The world spins, years pass, and everything comes to an end. Except Celestia. She sits on the shore of the last ocean, watching and waiting for her own chance at death. Because everything comes to an end if you wait long enough, and Celestia is patient indeed.

Ever since Pinkie's birth, Maud has been having some dark thoughts. She wants to kill her little sisters, starting with Pinkie, as she is still the youngest of the three and surely the easiest to end quickly, as she is also the weakest of the three.

Surely as Pinkie is the final installment to the Pies, Maud has endured much already when it comes to dealing and living with her little siblings, but Pinkie's differences from the other members of the family cause her to envy her to no bounds. Inflicted with great jealousy and rage, Maud contemplates the worst and documents her feelings as to what happens after the event occurs.

I wrote this with no real objective. I don't know how it will turn out, but I do know that despite it not being a fic I liked writing in particular, I still worked fairly hard on it. This was very hard to write for me to be honest, as I've had similar thoughts and strange desires to do similar things, I am not proud of these, and even then I still feel guilty for these thoughts, despite them being several years old. I'm over it all, but it still bothers me sometimes...

Immortality isn't all it's cracked up to be. Just ask someone who would know. Like... Apple Bloom, for instance.
