Giving Love a Helping Hoof Update!Hey everyone! This is just an update to let you know that Giving Love A Helping Hoof is being DISCONTINUED on this site, BUT it is still being updated! I'm condensing down from all the other sites I've used, packing up shop and moving over to Fim-fiction! I'll still be active on dA, I just won't be posting story updates any more.

Giving Love a Helping HoofAsk... and ye shall receive.~Kroqgar"Fluttershy dear, I swear that it will be fun! Why, AJ, Twilight and I all enjoyed a spirited game last time we had a slumber party!""Oh... I don't know...""Come on Fluttershy," intoned AJ, idly wondering what Rarity's definition of 'spirited' was, "it'll be fun, ah swear!""Well... Maybe...""Plus, the book says we have to! We have to tick off everything on the checklist.""What'd ah say 'bout checklists Twi'?""Well... I mean, if you girls insist... I suppose I could maybe play...""Yes!" cheered Rainbow Dash, pumping a hoof in the air. "Time for truth or dare!"Giving Love a Helping HoofP

The older pony fussed about with the little foal's blankets, tucking them in here and there. The filly clutched her little doll tightly in her tiny hooves. "Equestria was safe again, and everypony lived happily ever after. The end."The small pony yawned. "Was the princess Prin
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 11Rarity and Elusive both slumped against the door of Carousel Boutique, gasping for breath. The pair's headlong flight through Ponyville was a bit more exertion than either or the two unicorns was used to."Well... that was... certainly interesting," wheezed Elusive."Yes... I suppose... that's one word for it!" Rarity wiped a hoof across her brow, noticing that she was sweaty of all things.The stallion took a deep breath, feeling his pounding heart beginning to slow. Things hadn't gone exactly to plan; in their haste to escape from the Cutie Mark Crusaders, they had drawn more attention to themselve
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 10With a startled shriek, Fluttershy and Butterscotch leapt into the air, wings freezing up in fright. As their hooves touched earth, the two immediately attempted to bolt off in opposite directions, only for their still entwined wings to bounce them right back. With a simultaneous "Ooph!" the two pegasi collided and flopped to the ground in a jumble of yellow legs.The Cutie Mark Crusaders immediately crowded around, trying to assist the dazed couple."Oh mah gosh, Fluttershy! I didn't mean to scare you! Are ya alright?" Applebloom hovered over the pegasus, fretting.Carefully disentangling herself fr

Sorry I took so long to update, so as my late Christmas/New Year's present to all of you, have three, count 'em, three chapters!)Dread filled the assembled ponies as the immediately recognisable sound of tiny orange wings buzzing at a hummingbird-like intensity reached their ears. Fate was certainly forcing their hooves!Each reacted differently: a startled gasp, a thoughtful grimace, trembling uncontrollably. However the combined reactions of every other pony couldn't hold a flicker of a spark of a candle to that of Rainbow Dash and Rainbow Blitz. As the two pegasi realised
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 8Flying through the air, sunlight glinting off their golden finish, six magnificent chariots made their way towards Ponyville. Their pegasus escorts, picked at random from the Canterlot guard rotation, had known that something interesting was happening when they had seen just how many guards were being assembled – twelve guards was a full pegasus division! Upon seeing just who they were escorting, the stoic ponies very nearly widened their eyes in surprise; the Elements of Harmony themselves!...and the Elements of Harmony... again?However, one didn't become one of the elite pegasi guard of Canter
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 7The six golden chariots receded into the bright blue sky, winging their way towards an unknown future. The royal sisters watched them go, each thinking their own private thoughts. The two stood there for some time, gazing into the sky, looking out over Canterlot. It was surreal, sometimes, to look out over the young ponies, and try to imagine each of their lives, their worries, their fears. Almost too much to imagine, and Luna didn't like to if she could help it. Eventually, the younger Alicorn started moving from hoof to hoof, looking to Celestia and back into the castle.Celestia herself simply stood
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 6Sunlight streamed in through the great arching windows of Canterlot's banquet hall, catching the dancing motion of countless dust motes frolicking through the air, washing the entire room in a warm golden glow. Such was the gift of Princess Celestia.A small group of ponies a dozen strong sat inside, quietly talking amongst themselves. Were one to walk into the hall at that point nopony could fault them for rubbing their eyes in disbelief, thinking they were seeing double. They very nearly were. Seated in a circle were six young mares, and directly next to each were six young stallions, all looking so a
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 5A short while later found the group split in two; colts on one side and fillies the other. Rarity being as AJ often said "far and away the most frou-frou filly Ah've ever met", the seamstress very much wished for a moment of privacy to see what her friends thought of the whole situation. After some brief introductions and many utterances of "So that's what my dear friend would look like as the opposite gender! I must say, they make quite the dashing filly/colt!", she spirited her friends away. However Twilight and AJ could read her like a book. They shared a smirk.The duo quickly brought Rarity up to s
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 4In a small, seldom-used antechamber off the banquet hall of the great capitol of Canterlot, two seriously freaking out ponies stared dumbly at each other. Two minds, normally so able, were completely incapable of stringing together a coherent thought.With a sharp twang, a single hair in the mane of each flew askance. As one, the two started rambling, not so much talking to each other as they were voicing their thoughts."This makes absolutely no sense!""How can this even be possible?""You can't be real!""Is this all a dream? Did I have too much of Granny Smith's 'special' cider?""Maybe I fell
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 3My Faithful Student Twilight Sparkle,I need you and your fellow Elements of Harmony to come to Canterlot as soon as possible. A situation has arisen that affects each of you more profoundly than I can currently foresee. I shall send a chariot for you and your friends, it should arrive within the hour.With love,Princess Celestia…Pulled by a pair of armoured pegasus, a golden chariot flew across the idyllic countryside of Equestria, the roaring winds kept at bay through enchantment. A group of fillies clustered around a purple unicorn upon it."Whatever do you think it could be, Twilight?"
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 2A harried white unicorn knocked a dainty hoof on the door to Ponyville's library, her saddlebags bulging."Coming!"The door opened before her, bathing her in a warm glow. Her hostess stood before her."Rarity! I'm so glad you made it, we were beginning to wonder whether you were coming."Rarity tittered, brushing her mane out of her eyes. "Oh, think nothing of it Twilight, it simply took more time than I would have liked to close down the boutique today. Not that I'm complaining of course, business is positively booming!" Though the Grand Galloping Gala hadn't quite proceeded exactly as planned, the
Giving Love a Helping HoofGiving Love a Helping HoofChapter 1Silence reigned over the Everfree Forest. Ponyville's forbidding neighbour usually held a raucous evening court, the bass rumbles of the manticores punctuated by the high pitched squeaking of the local parasprite clouds. Tonight, however, was quite different.Tonight, the cockatrice slept easy, its head tucked under a wing. Tonight, the Ursa Minor slumbered peacefully despite the colossal snoring of its mother. Tonight, even the normally unshakeable Zecora unbolted her door and raised her gaze to the stars, dreaming of another time and place.Tonight was peaceful.Deep within the silken canopy of the
