It was an average day in Carousel Boutique.

And then the monster came.

For years, Sunset Shimmer has happily held her place at Celestia's side. She was her prized student, her number one prodigy. In return, Celestia was Sunset's world, her passion and drive. However, with time and age come change, and Sunset cannot take it any more.

She doesn't understand why Celestia won't look at her any more, why she is so enthralled by the talent and simple nature of her newest discovery. All she knows is that as much as she may aspire and hope, she'll never again be the object of Celestia's interest.

Sunset Shimmer intends to leave, and she has no plans of returning.

Special thanks to Ceffyl Dwr for pre-reading as well as helping me to iron out the creases in my original idea.

Twilight Sparkle's new friends took some time to adjust to the human rather than the pony, but they can tell her current behavior is unusual, even for her. The question is what's wrong. The answer...

Well, that'll be a bit harder to figure out with her avoiding the subject. But there are some forces no one can ignore.

Something has been bothering her girlfriend for a while now. Sunset Shimmer has never been one to let anything go. Come ponies or Equestrian magic she will figure out what is bothering Twilight Sparkle.

"There's just so much I don't understand"
"No matter how much research I do the magic here just doesn't make sense. Everyone is looking for me to clarify... and I can't do anything."
"I'm so useless to all of you."

Sunset and Twilight talk, eat Chinese, and by the end maybe Twily can help Sunset get her mind straight.

A young Cadance walks into foal sit for her favorite charge only to find that Shining Armor has allowed Twilight to have coffee and now she's in for a rough day.

Ladyhood is a concept that Rarity knows well, so there's no better pony to teach Sweetie Belle the ropes when she comes of age.

Though, Sweetie had no idea that adulthood would be so scandalous.

Holy smokes, this got a live reading by StraightToThePointStudio, that's kind of POG.

The past can be a difficult thing to think about, as Sunset Shimmer knows all too well. And it seems as though her adopted home has just as much of a troubled background as she has, if not more so. Twilight, who is perhaps the only friend she has who understands what it's like to make truly bad choices, talks with her about it.

It's been thirty years since Princess Twilight's coronation. Equestria, now with an abundance of heroes, has pretty much become as peaceful as its ever been—and with Luster Dawn coming to full grips with the magic of friendship, Twilight can finally relax.

At least, she would if it weren't for Cozy Glow escaping from her prison every other day.
