Oh, you found me of all fans huh? Are you lost? XD
We all know the story of Sunset becoming Celestia's protege and eventually falling from grace down a darker path.
But is that really all there is to the story? Or is there something deeper and more personal for the unicorn?

Ooh! An orgin Sunset story!
I like that you started out so far. Not a lot of stories explored just why Sunset became that way before the mirror (assuming that's where this story is going).
It's interesting that is started her acting humble and very lonely (due to her family being busy), but hesitant on the idea of making friends. I'm curious and concerned on what led her to lost her way.
Anyway, great start! Looking forward for more!
How old is Sunset in this story? Im assuming shes around the age of a filly since in the show she seems to be around the same age as Twilight, if not a few years older, but I could be wrong.
Regardless, this is an interesting story so far. Im interesting to see whats gonna happen with Sunset and Copper.

She's in her late teens in this story.
Took me a while, but I finally found the time to read this new chapter!
Now that's a good chapter! Sunset was struggling to make a friend until she met Copper Bronze. The interaction between the two is cute and it's nice that the two of them become friends!
Now I'm curious (and dreading) on what's going to happen between the two next.
Also this scene:
Young Shining Armor and Twilight cameo!
It's a shame that they missed Sunny. 
Why is there a tragedy tag?
11190408
That's yet to be seen.
That was another nice chapter.
It was very sweet and heartwarming that Copper invited Sunset to go on a vacation not just with him, but his family too. And it looks like those two are slowly falling in love.
...but why do I get this feeling that something bad is going to happen, especially after Copper promised that he won’t leave her?
"nEw ChAPtErS WiLl bE OuT eEVrY wEdNesDaY UnTil FIniShEd" already broke that promise

Did you see my announcement? And while making the release schedule of this story and Part 3 of Light Shines, I admit there was an oversight on how I was releasing the chapters, and should've released the first chapter two weeks after its original release date.

Oh shit, did not get that memo, thanks for the update tho
11205390
You're welcome. I hope you enjoy the rest of the story when I release the next chapter next Wednesday. :)
Oh neat, a new chapter!
A little too fast pace in this chapter, but I understand that romance isn't your strong suit. This is still a pretty good chapter.
I'm still worried about where this is going between Sunset and Copper.
11210619
Yep.
I know the chapter's a little fast paced, but like I said, this was written somewhat early in my writing of MLP and didn't want to change much due to the huge Light Shines story. But happy you enjoyed. :D
Do I need to read you main story to understand this one?
11211100
No, no you don't, but at the very end, this story reveals it has a major connection to it.
11211105
Oh it’s a prequel?
11211166
Yes. But it's more focused on Sunset rather than the main character of the Light Shines story, hence why the ending will reveal the major connection it was with said story.
holy crap
11216771
Indeed.
Dang...
I knew this would happen, especially the way the ending of the previous chapter implied. I'm curious and dreading what will happen next with the upcoming visit from Sunset’s parents, as well as her unborn child.
Not the baby’s fault Sunset, but she shouldn’t worry so much everypony would help her even Copper.
11217054
But I hope you enjoyed. :)
I believe she came to know and accept that, but she's still in a whirlwind of emotions, you know? And I don't know, with how things are going now... who knows what might happen?
Very sad to read this… hopefully someday they will get back together… btw it’s strange we never know if she had parents in the official show/movies. To bad that canceled last EG movie that was meant to bring the other Sunset we could have learn about her family
Oh man...
This... was a rough read. It's just so hard to see Sunset have a major falling out with her parents, especially after they found out about her pregnancy. Even without the effects of her pregnancy, Sunset's resentment towards her parents for not being there for her was building up for so long that she, unfortunately, couldn't keep in her anger anymore. Her parents obviously regretted and are ashamed of their actions, but the damage has been done... and Sunset is all alone.
Great chapter regardless, but it was still heartbreaking to read. I Hope Sunset reconciles with her parents one day, but something tells me... that there are more bad things to come.
Even though I haven’t started reading your series I have to wonder if the “other Sunset” life is very different from EQ Sunset?
Like I’m pretty sure Sunset and her baby are separated by the time she goes into the mirror. Which is sad that she didn’t bring her baby. But since Sunset went to a world that’s opposite of her own which instead of ponies everyone is human makes me wonder the reason why we haven’t seen Human Sunset is because she married Copper and they are raising their child in… what city is Copper’s family at again? Anyways, I guess in a way it’s a “what if” Sunset had stayed.
Not sure that’s spoilers since you haven’t finished the story yet. So, have a good Theory a Pony Theory! Thanks for Friendship Theory
11228168
It's an interesting theory nonetheless. :) But thanks for sharing. :D
Hmmmmm, I wonder.........................could we be seeing the origins of one purple-smart bookhorse?
Wow… that’s not right man
11231669
No it is not...
11231668
Actually no, because we see a certain bookhorse in chapter 1;
She gazed around at the ponies heading to and fro across Canterlot’s streets, even spotting a white unicorn with a shiny blue mane heading over to meet his mom keeping a presumably 3-year-old purple filly close by. They didn’t look as if they could be her friend.
11231758
Rats! There goes my fan theory.
11231791
It was still interesting nonetheless, but I hope you enjoy what's yet to come. :)
Why do I feel that there's something else causing this reaction ...
...oh my gosh!
It was bad enough that Sunset turned her parents away, now Copper just flat out ditched her with the baby!?
WHAT THE HECK COPPER!?!
I know that it was Sunset who made a mistake and it's understandable that he's scared of being the "father", but what he did was not only wrong, but also cowardly too! I don't care what his "reasons" were, but I'm sorry... what he did was not right!
But poor Sunset!
Foreshadowing
of Sunset. This definitely is a tearful chapter… poor Sunset losing it all and yet she forgets there is a baby who will always look up to her… except we all know it’s not the case when she leaves for the human world 
So... after that... emotional damage from the previous chapter, Sunset finally arrived to a village so she can give birth to her baby. But she didn't want to open up to anypony and acted coldly, including to the village leader, Emerald Shine.
While it's understandable as to why Sunset was acting this way, I'm also concerned and sad... knowing what's going to happen before the start of first Equestria Girls movie. And I'm also concerned about her baby.
And Guardians of Everlasting Harmony? And each baby birthed in that village is special? Interesting...
Good chapter.
...jeez louise!
Poor Sunset couldn't catch a break! First she lost her parents, now her friend/boyfriend. Granted, it's probably for the best since Copper bucked up big time!
And his "reason" of ditching her in the first place? I just.... I have no words!
Sunset’s right about one thing, at least she has Celestia and Emerald... for now.
I wonder if they’ll meet again when Sunset comes back to Equestria
[As AJ]:(To Copper) "Seriously?"
...oh my god!
11244840
I know!
Oh... my... gosh! This... is a LOT to take in!
Poor Sunset!
It was bad enough that she got herself pregnant and lost her boyfriend and parents. She finally gave birth to her baby daughter (and instantly fall in love with her), only to loose her after an attack by some mysterious creatures and Emerald is killed!
It's no wonder she became a cold, cruel, and evil pony (in this story's universe at least). While she "reunited" with her parents, she haven't forgiven them and became distant. And Copper just... disappeared. Whatever happened to him?
And of course, this leads to the events of very first Equestria Girls movie (and prequel comic) and attempt to take over the human world. Thank goodness that Twilight and the HuMane Five stopped her and changed her ways. But I wonder if Sunset will find her daughter again.
Overall, it was tragic, but a great origin story of Sunset Shimmer! Well done!
11244854
I worry that Copper got killed by the lions
unless he got taken away by aliens he seemed to have just disappeared
What a wonderful prequel to your story. It definitely is heartbreaking for Sunset but she will fine out that… her little baby is alive though I wonder what happened before the first story?
WHAAAAAAAAT?!
I...but...I-I ju-...WHAT?!
SUNSET IS MYTIC'S MOM?!
11245090
Yes.
11244899
These lions weren't the same ones from Part 2, these are entirely new beings.
11245117
Oh
I think a speck fell in my eye
I'm guessing we'll find out what happened to Copper later on?
