This story started out as a bedtime story for my daughter. But then, it turned, well, a little darker than your average MLP story.
Boomer is a bit of a recluse. Twenty years after a tragedy that destroyed his entire unit, he is still dealing with the pain. Of course, what would tragedy and pain be without something to contrast it with. So, Pinkie Pie gets thrown into the mix. Of course, when I first put her in the story, it was with the plan of killing her off. Things quickly got out of hand though, as they tend to when she is involved.
This does have some low points, some tears, and pain. But, in the end, there is a happy ending, for some.
