This story is a sequel to The Change in Our Wind

Winter is just around the corner, which means it's time for the ponies of Equestria to prepare for Cloudsdale's delivery of snow and ice for the new season. This also means that Rainbow Dash, who had joined the Wonderbolts shortly after her suspension in the Reserves, and Soarin have the whole season to relax.

Dash invites Soarin to spend their vacation in Ponyville and help prepare for winter, but when Dash can't do her part in the preparations, will Soarin be able to help her out? Unfortunately, that's not the only problem he and the Mane 7 will have to face...

Spike's been building up a pretty big issue. He's gotten all, all itchy, and no matter how hard his friend's help, it doesn't seem to go away. However, Ember pops up with a deal to help him out.

Contains sensual rubbing.

Twilight and Sunset decided to join a playgroup so their daughter can socialize with other babies her age. However, the appearance of old friends spark an unnecessary competition.

Twilight recieves an invitation to temporarily substitute one of her old teachers in the Celestia's school for gifted unicorns. Starlight goes with her, curious of what her life could've been if she went there when she had a chance.
In there, Starlight learns that the true purpouse of said trip was not what it seemed...

The ruling Queens of a world called Rootbase, come to Princess Twilight's castle via a metal portal or gate. They seek her aid as her world is peaceful and free, unlike theirs and they wish their pupil to learn from that to build a better future.

I thought up this story idea while looking at some concept art for what someone thought Generation 5's main cast would look like. Their personalities aren't like the artist envisioned but they are different. I plan on making this a full story so let me know if you like what I put out but bear in mind that there is more to come.

This is one of my entries into the StarTrixMaud Shipping Contest. It fell out of my head in a couple days and I like it. Hopefully you like it too.

FlameStar, now a famous pony of Equestria, is living large and (not really) in charge. Just when he could relax, a new villain arises and steals The Castle of Friendship. One freak accident causes FlameStar to land in Canterlot High, stuck and alone. Now he must take on one huge task before he can go home and stop the villain: He must survive the life of a High School student.

Five years ago, three highly dangerous villains were turned to stone. A year after that, Twilight's protege earned her alicorn wings by defeating some of the most powerful monsters in Equestrian History. Everypony thinks they're gone for good. But one young filly...

... she is not so sure.

That filly is Flurry Heart. Friendless Flurry Heart. Flurry Heart, student of the School of Friendship, terror of everypony except the teachers, nefarious for not being able to control her own powers. What powers, you ask? Flight and magic, any normal creature would reply. But that is not all. Flurry is no ordinary alicorn.

Confronted with a choice between joining evil and fighting against it, she has no answer.

Yet.

It seems like a curse.

Wallflower is living a peaceful life in the big city. It is a place of comfort for her. A place for her to grow. But the place she has chosen is expensive and requires another person to help pay for the rent and utilities. It wouldn't be a problem for her except that every six months when the lease needs to be renewed, the roommate leaves for one reason or another and they never speak to her again. It has been like this for the past couple of years for Wallflower. The constant loneliness and stress of being abandoned. She needs a friend that she can be important for. One who would help her and make her feel wanted. Alas, it feels pointless for Wallflower to try. Everyone she knows eventually leaves her.

Then one night, Wallflower decides to go out and just relax. Enjoy the coming summer. It was during this night that she bumps into Sunset Shimmer, an old friend she hasn't talk to in a while. Turns out Sunset has been displaced and is looking for a place to stay.

So Wallflower offers her place to stay for the summer. But with each month that passes by, the two of them grow closer together. Will Wallflower be able to keep Sunset when the inevitable happens and they are forced apart? Will they be able to upgrade their relationship to something beyond just friends? Is there a way for Wallflower to break this curse?

Only time will tell.
