Long journeys to destinations full of happy memories are not always as enjoyable as they should be. But Sunset and Rainbow have weathered the good and the bad on road trips and in life.

My entry to the Sunset Shipping contest "Journeys"

This story is a sequel to The First Step

It has been a few weeks since the fall formal. The school has been repaired, Sunset has been, begrudgingly at least, accepted back into the student body, and she even has a few friends.

They all have so much energy to them. They laugh, they tease, the fight and make up. Sunset can't do that. Not yet. It takes too much energy, energy she doesn't have. Being around them is great. They've been so kind to her. They stand by her. Sunset only wishes she had the energy to do the same for them.

Sunset Shimmer is dead. Rainbow Dash is stubborn. Luna is a sucker for puppy dog eyes. For these three reasons, Sunset gets a second shot at being not dead. All Rainbow has to do is guide her marefriend out of hell. What could go wrong?

Written for Oroboro's Sunset Shipping Contest: Journeys.

While tearfully repairing the wall she destroyed, Sunset Shimmer can't help but reflect on what a horrible person she is. Convinced she'll never be forgiven by her peers, and unsure if she's even worthy of it, she's visited in the night by one of the last people she expected.

This story is a sequel to SunDash Beginnings

Its been a few weeks since Dash and Sunset got together. Rainbow comes to Sunset's place after work and joins her for a live episode of Shimmer Code. This week: pajamas, fun games and good natured bickering.
