Dara is on a beach. She is chilly in her clothes, which are a sky blue t-shirt with navy skinny jeans. Around her neck is a small gold chain with a little heart charm on it. The color match perfectly with her hair and eyes, which are blonde with green eyes. Her hair was always up; it felt wrong of her to have it down, she sometimes had a nervous breakdown. But on the beach she feels safe, the air was light and the sand tickled between her toes. The sky is dotted with seagulls flying over head, probably looking for for food. She walks on the sand, slightly in the water. The feeling of wet sand was nice; it reminded her of the years past, the multiple times she have stepped in this relaxing world that is the beach. As she walked along, a city came into view. It was lit up in the night, the city was alive like any beach city. She decide to walk towards it, what was the harm?
Around an hour passed, and she approached city. She walks in front of a large building, it seemed like a school.
"Something is off about this place" Dara whispers, "The door is swinging as if some just walked in, but I hear no footsteps".
In curiosity, Dara walks in, It is dark and cold. She sneaks around, looking for a person, but she is not surprised to find nothing. Because Dara is already here, she tiptoes towards a metal door labeled "To Roof, Authorized Personal Only Past this Point". She opens the door slowly and turns on the light that is in the stairway. Dara climbs up the stairs quickly, she doesn't want to be caught snooping around. She soon finds a trap door and the end of the flight of stairs, she cautiously opens the heavy door to find that a girl around her age is there. She has a midnight black leather jacket with orange accents on it.She also has on a blue shirt, the color similar to the one she has on. Under the blue shirt is a tan one. Her boots are the same design on her jacket. The girl also has red hair with yellow streaks in it (or is it yellow with red streaks?) , it reminded her of fire. Long story short, the girl was really pretty, at least in Dara's eyes. The girl walked near the edge of the building, and starts to sing: Power... was all I desired
but all that grew inside of me, was the darkness I acquired
When I began to fall and I lost the path ahead
That's when your friendship found me
And it lifted me instead
Like a phoenix burning bright
In the sky
I'll show there's another side to me
You can't deny
I may not know what the future holds
But hear me when I say
That my past does not define me
'Cause my past is not today
Ambition
Is what I believed
Would be the only way
To set me free
But when it disappeared
And I found myself alone
That's when you came and got me
And it felt like I was home
Like a phoenix burning bright
In the sky
I'll show there's another side to me
You can't deny
I may not know what the future holds
But hear me when I say
That my past does not define me
'Cause my past is not today

Dara is in awe. The girl's voice was amazing, the song meaningful. But what shocked her most was that the girl has been lifted into the air and she turned into what looked like a phoenix. The girl was now kneeling on the roof, with her head down, looking like she was as in awe as Dara and confused as her as well. She then got up, turned around, and saw Dara with her mouth wide open, still in shock. Sunset smiled when she saw the girl, then she walked over.
Dara is still too in shock to notice her.
"Hey" Sunset speaks in a friendly tone, "What are you doing up here".
"Uhhhh" Dara started to stutter.
Sunset started to laugh, "Its OK, I'm not going to hurt you, why don't you chill here with me"?. Sunset offered her hand to Dara and she takes it warily.
Sunset gently walked with her in her hand, and led her to a spot .
"This is where I'm staying for tonight,you can sit down if you'd like".
Dara sat down and looked at the girl, "She is sooo pretty" Dara thought. she then without realizing it, started staring at her.
Sunset waved a hand in front of her, "Are you alright?" she said. Dara's mind suddenly went back to reality,
"Uhh yeah I'm fine, what are you doing up here anyway?".
"Sometimes I like to come up here to clear some thoughts, I can see the whole city from up here", Sunset says, "What are you doing here as well".
" I just found this place I guess", Dara replies.
"Do you not go here?, because I haven't seen you around school?", Sunset asks.
"Well, I don't go here, I go to this school called Jameston High School.", Dara says.
"Hmm, never heard of it", Sunset says."By the way, my name is Sunset Shimmer, what's yours?" Sunset asks.
"My name is Dara Hart, cool name by the way, your parents must be creative.".
Sunset froze at the mentioning of her parents "Yeah I just they were.", Sunset says shakily. The girls sit there for a moment; then Sunset starts to talk again. " It was nice talking to you, but I think you should walk back to your house or something, its getting late".
"Heh I guess you're right, ok see you around"? Then suddenly Dara WOKE UP.

She finds herself awake at the foot of a statue; it looks like is in front of the building she was in last night.
"How did I end up here?" Dara asks herself.
She soon realizes that she is gathering attention, probably because: A, she is new and B she is in front of the statue that supposedly another strange girl has come to there world in. Dara stands up and starts to walk around. She soon walks into the girl she talked to last night.
"Oh so sorry, can I help you up?" Sunset says in worry.
Dara blushes, then takes her hand.
"Hey" Sunset says, "I know you, we met last night". "What are you doing here?".
"I don't know really, I just woke up near that statue over there". She then pointed to the portal.
Sunset froze, realizing what happened.
"Follow me, I need to take you to Principal Celestia!" she says in a rush
Dara follows.
