It was three months after Twilight Sparkle had returned to Equestria. Not everyone had forgiven Sunset Shimmer. Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy rarely talked to her and when they did it was really awkward. Sunset Shimmer lie in bed that night.
I suppose I really don't belong here anymore. she thought to herself, Maybe.... Just maybe I should return. But what if they don't accept me? What if Celestia doesn't care about me and leaves me to take care of myself. I have no parents... Maybe Celestia won't be so cruel. Maybe she'll teach me about friendship... Or maybe she'll have Twilight teach me. She sighed. Hmm... Twilight learned about friendship and got to become a princess, maybe if I return Celestia will take me under her wing and teach me about magic... Maybe Twilight will teach me about friendship. After all, her so-called 'friends' don't even try. I'll be better off in Equestria, I think. Oh I just hope every pony will accept me and at least give me a chance. She turned onto her side and stared at her alarm-clock. 3:00 AM
"I suppose I shall get to sleep" she whispered quietly to herself. She closed her eyes and soon was fast asleep.

Beep Beep Beep Be-
Sunset Shimmer hit the button on top of her alarm clock. She groaned.
"6:00 AM ugh!"
She sat up on the bed her hair sticking up in all the wrong places. She walked into the small bathroom painted yellow and red with her old cutie mark hand-painted by her on the wall. She had painted it after Twilight Sparkle left.
With a jolt she remembered her thoughts from the previous night. She decided to ask Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack about it. She proceeded to get ready for school. She ate a few pieces of toast, put her backpack on and walked out of the front door.
To think that I've started my mornings the same way for years. This morning might be the last that I start like this.
With that thought hanging in her mind she got into her car and drove to Canterlot High.

Sunset Shimmer set her plate down at the table where Fluttershy and Rarity were already sitting. They seemed to be in deep conversation but they stopped talking once they heard Sunset's tray hit the table.
"Hey guys" she said almost shyly.
"Hi Sunset" Fluttershy said cheerfully.
Rarity turned around and rolled he eyes. She hadn't forgiven Sunset Shimmer and she didn't think she ever would.
Just then Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash sat down. The table was silent.
Sunset Shimmer felt a little awkward sitting at the table and blushed noticeably.
"Can't y'all see that we're makin' tha girl uncomfortable?!"
Sunset Shimmer took a bite out of her salad and chewed silently.
"Look Sunset Shimmer um.... We're sorry for not giving you a chance. We feel bad that you aren't being treated fairly." Rainbow Dash said.
Sunset Shimmer almost chocked on her salad as she looked up. "I um forgive you. And I'm really sorry for everything that I've done."
The table was silent for a little bit. The silence was soon followed by the other five murmuring their forgiving phrases.
"We also wanted to ask if you'd go dress shopping for the Spring Dance later today with us?"
"Yeah, Sure." Sunset said. That'll give me some time to be able to tell them about my thoughts about moving back to Equestria she thought.
