Chapter 3: Sunset's Daycare Delight. Part 2 of 2: Meeting and helping New Friends. Part 1 of 5: A Dip of Sugar · 1:29am May 30th, 2021
Sunset Shimmer: Age, 7 years old
It was after lunch break, it was now time for free-time, which mean't the students could do whatever they wanted for the rest of the day until 2:30 which was nap time. Even though there were a lot of girl toys, Sunset rather preferred playing with boy's toy's since she was a tom-boy.
As Sunset was playing with a toy robot all by herself since she had a little anxiety about meeting new people, but then she saw that one of the girls looked all too familiar, Purple Pony-tail, and dorky looking glasses, this made Sunset's face light up.
"Twilight," Sunset said. This made Twilight stop whatever she was doing, and turn around to face Sunset. Twilight jumped for joy as she saw her child-hood friend.
"SUNSET," Twilight said as she ran up to hug her friend. "Oh it's been so long since I've seen you. How have you been?"
"Oh, I've been doing well," Sunset said.
"Oh, have you made any new friends," Twilight asked.
"Not really, I have a little anxiety about meeting new people," Sunset confessed.
"Oh, well, how about I introduce you to those 5 over there," Twilight said as she took Sunset over to where 5 other kids were sitting.
"Hey, look Twilight back," Sunny Flare said with a happy smile on her face. "Hey, did you make a new friend?"
"No, she's actually my first ever friend," Twilight said. "Her names Sunset Shimmer. "Sunset, these are Indigo Zap, Lemon Zest, Sour Sweet, Sunny Flare, and Sugarcoat," Twilight said as they all waved hello to her, all but Sugarcoat had happy smiles on there faces.
"Your introduction to us was terrible, you need to work on it," Sugarcoat said bluntly.
"Hey, I'm sorry, I was a little..." Sunset said before she spotted something on Sugarcoats face.
"What, is there something on my face," Sugarcoat said as she started to sweat.
Sunset then saw that Sugarcoat's right eye was all black and swollen.
"Hey, did you hurt your eye or something," Sunset asked. I could ask Ms. Daisy to get a bag of ice for that."
"I don't need it," Sugarcoat said sweating even more.
Sunset then saw multiple cuts and bruises on her arms and legs.
"Did you get hurt by...," Sunset said before Sugarcoat pushed away and said, "DON'T TOUCH ME!"
Sugarcoat then rolled into a ball and started crying. Then Sunset heard the door open and saw a tall women wearing fancy clothes.
Then Sunset whipped out the I-Phone Luna gave her for her Birthday, and went to her camera app and started recording.
'"SUGARCOAT," The women screamed. "HOW DARE YOU COME BACK TO THIS INFERNAL DAYCARE!"
"Please Madame, you're scaring the..." Gloriosa tried to say before the women forcefully pushed her into a wall
"YOU HAVE DISOBEYED ME FOR THE LAST TIME, SUGARCOAT," The women said as she roughly grabbed Sugarcoat by the hand and then slapped her hard in the face in front of everyone.
"THIS IS WHY I HATE CHILDREN, YOU'RE EXISTENCE HAS BEEN A DISEASE TO MY SOUL," Sugarcoat's mother screamed.
Sour Sweet tried to fight, but Sunset stopped from escalating the conflict any longer.
"WELL, LET'S SEE IF YOU'LL DISOBEY ME WHEN I LOCK YOU IN THE DARK ROOM AGAIN!" Sugarcoat's mother said.
"No Mommy, please don't put me in there anymore," Sugarcoat said as they left the Daycare.
As soon as Sugarcoat and her mother left the daycare, Sunset stopped the recording and saved it to her phone.
At the end of the day, as Sunset was packing her bags, She then walked up to Gloriosa, who was sitting on a chair crying.
"Oh, Sunset, I'm so sorry that you had to see that," Gloriosa tearfully said. "That witch has been doing this all the time, and she has always been picking on the other children just as much as her own."
"Don't worry, Ms. Daisy, I'll make sure that Sugarcoat won't have to deal with that anymore." Sunset said as she left the daycare.
Before Sunset went home, she first stopped by the Canterlot Police Department, and showed the officer at the front desk the recording on her phone.
As soon as the officer saw the woman in the recording, his jaw dropped as he had known her from previous other testimonies from other parents, but she got away with it due to lack of evidence.
"Wow, we've been trying to lock her up for a very long time, but thanks to you, we can finally bring her to justice," The Officer said. My name's Shining Armor, looks like you helped us solve this crime...hey wait a minute, is your name Sunset Shimmer," Shining Armor said.
"Yep, that's right," Sunset said with a happy smile, as she knew that she did the right thing.
"My little sister Twilights been telling me a lot about you, you really are a little hero tonight," Shining Armor said, making Sunset blush a little.
After sending an email of the recording to Shining Armor's phone, she left the police station and headed on home.
As soon as Sunset got home, she saw Luna watching the news.
As Luna was about to change the Channel she heard the anchorman say,
"In tonight's news, a hateful mother is finally being brought to justice after so many months of getting away with the crime," The Anchorman said.
"Ms. Sundrop, a well-known supermodel is now being arrested for many accounts of Child Abuse and Child imprisonment, she will now be serving 50 years to life in prison without parole." The Anchorman said. "Ms. Sundrop has also lost all custody of her child, named Sugarcoat, and will be sent to the Canterlot Childcare and rehabilitation center."
On the TV, Sunset heard Sugarcoat say to her mother in a angry voice, "You are not my mother, you are a monster that kept me locked in a dark and cramped room for many years, I will never forgive you for what you have done to me all these years. I hope that you rot in a cell just how you left me to rot in a dark room. That is all I have to say to you, you filthy excuse of a human being."
"How could this case finally be solved, earlier tonight, the officer on the case, Shining Armor, got actual video evidence on a phone from a little girl after Sundrop was caught in the act in a local daycare," The Anchorman said.
As soon as Luna saw Sunset's face on TV, her jaw dropped.
"Celestia, you need to see this," Luna hollered.
As soon as Celestia saw it, she dropped the tea-cup she was carrying and turned to look at Sunset with an astonished look on her face.
Sunset expected them to start yelling at her for getting involved, but instead, as she braced herself for the worst, she felt a pair of loving arms wrap around Sunset.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Celestia hugging her.
"Sunset, I am so proud of you for helping that poor girl tonight," Celestia said with a loving look on her face.
"Thank you mommy, I just didn't her to be hurt anymore," Sunset said.
"Luna, I think we should go and adopt Sugarcoat, it's the least we can do for her," Celestia said.
"Yes, I agree with you completely," Luna said.
"C'mon Sunset, I think you should be there to comfort her," Celestia said.
"Ok Mommy," Sunset said as they all left for the rehabilitation center.
Just as Celestia, Luna, and Sunset parked at the Canterlot Childcare center, they then walked towards the entrance. A security guard tried to stop them, but as soon as he saw Sunset, he let them go inside the building.
Sunset then went to Room #8 on the second floor, the room Sugarcoat was in, and slowly opened the door.
Sunset expected Sugarcoat to yell at her to go away, but when Sugarcoat saw Sunset, instead of anger, she started to cry tears of joy as her weak and frail body ran up to hug the one person who saved her from a life of misery.
"Thank you, Thank you so much for what you did," Sugarcoat said as she wept on Sunset's shoulder.
"It's ok Sugarcoat, it's the least I could do," Sunset said. "I just didn't want to see you get hurt anymore."
"I can finally feel and express emotions again after so long, thank you, oh thank you," Sugarcoat wept.
Just then Celestia and Luna came into the room.
You are Ms. Sugarcoat, right, Celestia asked.
"Yes," Sugarcoat said.
"Well, looks like Sunset is going to be your new step-sister," Luna said.
"Really," Sunset said with a happy look on her face.
"Yes really," Celestia said. "We've signed all the paper-work, we'll give you all the love that your biological mother could never give you."
"Thank you all so much," Sugarcoat said as they all got in the car and headed back to Sugarcoats new home.
As soon as Celestia treated all of Sugarcoats cuts, bruises, and black eye with a first aid kit and an ice bag, Celestia cooked her up a nice meal to eat.
Sugarcoat began gobbling it all up, despite her bad table manners. But Celestia and Luna let it slide since they knew that she was starving.
"Thank you for the food," Sugarcoat said with a happy look on her face before she let out a big yawn as she was starting to get really tired.
"Don't worry about sleeping on that dirty couch, Sugarcoat, we have a spare bed in Sunset's room just for you," Celestia said.
Sunset had always wondered what that other bed was for.
As soon as Sugarcoat climbed up onto the bed, she fell asleep as soon as her body hit the pillow, as she let out a quiet snore.
"Have a goodnights sleep Sugarcoat," Sunset whispered before she to fell asleep on her bed.
