//------------------------------// // Chapter 1: Friendship That Comes and Goes // Story: Sun's Equestria Girls Adventure: Forgotten Friendship // by Pinkie Pie Sweets //------------------------------// On a summer day at Canterlot Mall, Sun is hanging out with her friend Wallflower Blush. The two have been hanging out since this morning. They just finishing watching a movie and now are at the food court having lunch. "It sure was nice of you to invite me," Wallflower says with a smile. "It's no trouble at all. I'm glad that we get to hang out together," Sun says. Then Wallflower asks, "What about your other friends?" "I think they said they're going to be at the mall to do some shopping," Sun answers. "Oh, um really. That sounds nice," Wallflower says, looking rather down. Sun notices this, and asks, "Is there something wrong?" "Oh no, there's nothing wrong. Nothing you need to worry about. I was just wondering what your friends are doing?" "Okay," Sun replies, but is not fully buying Wallflower's statement. She decides to change the subject, and asks,"So Wallflower, I know school will be starting next month, what do you like to do?" "Well, um…" Wallflower begins to shyly says. But just then, Pinkie cuts in, and happily asks, "Hey Sun, what you're doing?" "I was just talking to one of my friends before you interrupted her," Sun dryly answers. Pinkie turns around to see Wallflower blinking her eyes a few times. "Hi my name is Pinkie Pie. What's your name?" Pinkie happily introduces herself. "Wallflower Blush, I've kind of known you since middle school," Wallflower says. Pinkie smiles and says, "Middle school you say. I remember a lot that has happened in middle school. Like the time that made the most biggies school party for my principal who was retiring. I believed his name was Mr. Ruling Stick. He was great. And then there is this other time…" Pinkie continues to talk about the times about her days in Middle school that she isn't really getting to the point about her knowing Wallflower. Sun and Wallflower look at each other with blunt looks on their faces. Sun calmly asks, "Uh Pinkie, did you actually know Wallflower during middle school." Pinkie stops talking, and answers, "Actually no. I was having fun with the others way before you, Twilight, and the Dazzlings came along." Then continues with her middle school's day, "And then there was the time, I helped Trixie with her magic show in eighth grade where she was trying to make our science lab pet disappear…" Wallflower turns to Sun, and asks, "Is she always like this?" "Yes. Yes she is," Sun answers with a firm look on her face. "Sun, darling!" Rarity's voice calls out. Sun and Wallflower turn as Pinkie continue talking to see, the rest of Sun's friends are heading toward her. "Hey guys, how was your shopping?" Sun asks. "We did some great shopping, and we also got some new stylish swimsuit," Adagio answers. They then notice the forest green haired girl sitting at the same table with her. "So isn't your friend going to say hi to us," Adagio says with a grin. "Well, um, hello," Wallflower shyly replies. Aria drags Adagio by the hair away from Wallflower, "Adagio, don't scare her with your sinister grin." Adagio has Aria let go of her hair, "Come now Aria, I was only saying hello to Sun's little friend. So what's your name?" "Um Wallflower Blush," Wallflower answers. "Well it's very nice to meet you," Adagio says. She turn turns to Sun, and asks, "So Sun, are you doing anything tomorrow?" "No. I don't think so," Sun answers. "We're going to the beach tomorrow and we want to know if you want to come with us," Rainbow says. "Yeah. I'm trying out my new drone that I made over there," Twilight says. "And we're also going to get some sunbathing there as well," Rarity says. "Not to mention some rad surfing," Applejack adds. "And see the marine life under the water," Fluttershy happily adds. "That sounds like fun. I would like to go," Sun happily says. Pinkie happily cheers, "Beach day! I'll make my world-famous fun-in-the-sun cupcakes." She then whispers to the girls, "The secret ingredient is edible sunscreen! It's SPF fun-hundred!" Hearing the kind of cupcakes Pinkie is planning on making, the girls feeling a bit disturbed, confused, and a bit disgusted. "Cupcakes with edible sunscreen frosting!" Wallflower says, looking disturbed. "Gross!" Adagio reacts in disgust. "Yum!" Sonata reacts with a smile, and rubbing her tummy. "Blech!" Fluttershy replies with a disgusted look, and sticking her tongue out. "That doesn't sound like a good combination to me Pinkie," Sun calmly says. "It is for me," Pinkie remarks with a grin. Adagio whispers, "I'll stick on having veggie sushi rolls instead." "A pizza will be better than sunscreen," Aria whispers back. Rarity then grabs Sun by the and, "Come on darling, we need to get ready for our beach day tomorrow." "Yes. But I'm already hanging out with Wallflower today," Sun says. "It's okay. I, um, kind of need to get back the school to check on the garden," Wallflower says. "Are you sure? I mean, you can come with us if you like. In face, will you like to come with us to the beach tomorrow?" Sun asks. Wallflower looks a bit surprised, but calmly asks, "Really?" "Really. You should have some fun with us," Sun says. "Um… sure," Wallflower answers with a shy smile. "Great. We can all meet at the peer tomorrow," Sun says. "Thanks. Now I need to get going. I remember that I need to buy some food for the plants," Wallflower says as she gets up from her chair. Then she leaves, but not before she says, "See you tomorrow." "Bye," Sun reply. Wallflower leaves the group to go get some plant food for her plants. Once she is out of the food court and out of the girl's sight, her head begins to feel like it's in pain. Then her eyes begin to turn into a brown color. Then becomes normal and doesn't have headaches anymore. Then she just continue to be on her way. However, she starts to feel… Sad and lonely. Sometime later, Sun and her friends are in Rarity's house coming up with ideas for the beach. "I can't wait until we get there! We're are going to have so much fun!" Pinkie cheers. "Yes. Nothing like sunbathing," Adagio says. "Swimming," Sonata happily adds. "Let's not forget the awesome surfing the girls and I are going to do," Aria says. "Aw yeah! Can't wait to hit those awesome waves!" Rainbow shouts with excitement. "Me too. And what's more we're going to have another friend joining us," Pinkie adds with a big smile. "It was very nice of you to invite your friend Wallflower to come up with us," Fluttershy replies. Sun nods her head, "Yeah. I thought it will be a good idea for her to come and hang out with us. Truth be told, I have another reason why I want her to come." "Why is that?" Falling Star asks. "Well, from what I remember, Wallflower was so shy that she doesn't seem to hang out with anyone not even at school," Sun explains. "She goes to our school?" Sonata asks. "Yes Sonata, she does," Sun firmly answers. Applejack scratches her head, "Really, I don't think I've see her in the school before." Sun sadly sighs, and explains, "That is another reason why I want her to come with us. Like you guys, everyone doesn't seem to know that Wallflower was even there. It's like everyone treat her like she's invisible or something. Someone that can simply fade away." "That sounds awful," Fluttershy sadly replies, feeling sorry for Wallflower. "Yeah, I'm the only friend Wallflower has. That's why I want her to come with us. I want Wallflower to be more open, and able to make more friends," Sun explains. Twilight smiles, and says, "Don't worry, we'll be sure that Wallflower has a great time at the beach with us." "Sure thing sugar cube. By the end of tomorrow, Wallflower will end up with ten more friends, and maybe much more," Applejack says with a smile. "Let's not forget, to take thing easy with Wallflower. After all, it takes time for a flower open up her little bud," Rarity confirms. Pinkie giggles, "Good one Rarity." "Thank girls. I'm sure Wallflower will have a wonderful time with all of us," Sun say with glee. Later that night, Sun is in her bedroom, wearing her pajamas as she write her entry to Princess Twilight. She writes as she says in her thoughts, " Dear Princess Twilight, How are things going in Equestria? Things have been quiet since we all fought the Pony of Shadows, and we haven't dealt with Equestrian Magic in this world yet. The girls and I are going to have some fun at the beach tomorrow. The girls and I have made a lot of plans and all kinds of activities when we get there. I'm also inviting my other friend, Wallflower Blush to come with us. You see, Wallflower doesn't have to many friends. In fact, I'm practically the only friend she has. I thought that bringing to the beach with my friends will help open her up more, and will end up with more friends. Maybe you can come to Canterlot City sometime and we can hang out together. I hope you and your friends have a great time p, and I'll see you the next time I come through the mirror to your castle. Your friend, Sun. After writing her enter, she closes the book and puts it in her draw for safe keeping. She then turns off the lights in her room, and falls asleep for the night. She can't wait for her and her friends fun at the beach tomorrow. What more, to help her friend Wallflower open up more. Later in the night, ten stream of red magic begin to fly across the night sky. Then accompanied by rainbow streams of eleven colors fly around the city from the homes of Canterlot City. There is this last stream of light that has ten colors on it. All the stream of colors swirl and spiral around the sky, and travel around the school's roof. And then into the forest that is behind the school. All the streams of light travel to one location, First there is a bright red glow. Then a light of eleven rainbow colors appear. Next, the light of ten colors appear. Final,y a bright bluish green glow appears in the forest. The people of Canterlot City are sleeping for the night, that they are not aware of the lights and streams of it appear ski. Little do the city, especially Sun and her friends know, those streams of light contain something very special. Without them, Sun friendship with the girls is going to be at risk of being lost.
