It's been weeks since New Years, now Sun and all the students of Canterlot High are back to school. During the three weeks of school, there have been less snow falling from the sky and the sun is starting to come out a little more. Even though it's still the coldness of winter. The students are having a normal day at school, doing what students do.
Today, even though it's snowing outside, everyone is inside enjoying the warm and doing class assignments, and other activities in the school. In the music room, Sun is singing one of the songs she remember and is dancing to it.
As she dance, Sun sings one of her songs.
Sun sings:
Twirling whirling round we go
Twirling high and twirling low
Twirling round we go
Twirling whirling round we go
Twirling fast and twirling low
See the colors skip and flow
Twirling round we go
ASun sings her song, she dancings across the room. Every time she sings it makes her feel happy and calm. It also makes her forget her worries and deep thoughts. Sun likes music and dancing and always does it to express herself.
Just then someone walks into the room and says, "Hey Sun."
Sun stop singing and dancing to turn around to see who comes into the room. Sun can see Flash Sentry along with two of his friends and bandmates are walking into the room, Ringo on base, and Brawly Beats on drums.
Sun smiles and says, "Hi Flash."
"That was a great song you were singing. What song is it?" Flash complements.
"Just a song I remember, but I don't remember who sang it to me,"
"I understand. It still a great song, though," Flash replies.
"Thanks," Sun says.
She then asks, "So what are you up to?"
"My band and I are going to use the music room to practice, so…" Flash is about to explain is reasons.
But Sun interrupts him and says, "I understand, you need me to leave so you can practice."
Flash can see what Sun is going at. She can tell when someone needs something, even though it's not what some have in mind.
"You don't have to leave," Flash replies.
"I kind of need to get some of my stuff for class anyway," Sun says with calm smile.
Sun grabs her backpack and says, "I'll see you later. Bye."
"Bye." Flash replies.
Sun leaves with her backpack while Flash and his friends get their stuff ready to practice their music for them. Sun makes sure to get some of her things for her classes and then leaves to the library to get some books to read.
Sometime later, Sun is in her cooking class with Pinkie Pie and Applejack. In their class today, they are making a blueberry pie. Making desserts can be easy as long as they follow the directions for it.
As Pinkie put some of the sugar on the pie, she happily says, "Sugar, Spice, and everything nice are the perfect ingredients to make some delicious blueberry pie."
"Come on Pinkie, it's time to put the pie in the oven," Sun says as she opens the oven.
"Okay," Pinkie says cheerfully.
Pinkie puts the pie in the oven while Sun sets the time for the baking process. While the pie is being baked, Sun and Pinkie starts to clean up their station. After they finish cleaning up, they hear the timer going off meaning that the pie is one.
Sun turns to the oven and says, "The pie is ready."
"I'll get it," Pinkie happily cheers.
Pinkie puts on the mittens and takes the blueberry pie out of the oven. Pinkie, Sun, and Applejack decide to share their pie with the others when lunch starts, they also need to wait until the pie cools off anyway.
After their cooking class, it's time for lunch. Sun and the others are enjoying the blueberry pie that she, Applejack, Pinkie Pike have made in their cooking class.
"Man this pie is great," Rainbow Dash with her mouth a bit full.
"Rainbow Dash, you know it's ill mannered for you to talk with your mouth full," Rarity firmly remarks.
Rainbow Dash rolls her eyes with annoyance and says, " ."
"Glad to see you all like it," Sun says with a calm smile.
"Yes. Blueberries are one of Angel's and my favorite berries," Fluttershy says with a smile.
Sun giggles and says, "It's kind of funny hearing that your little rabbit likes eating some pie. Well, the inner part of the pie."
"I know, but that's how Angel likes it," Fluttershy replies with a smile.
"I don't blame him one bit," Pinkie sys while taking a bit of her slice of pie.
As they are having their lunch and slice of pie, Sun notice some posters two students are hanging on the wall. The sign shows a stage along with some lights and it has the words Talent Show on it and from the looks of the poster, it says it a day away..
"Hey guys, what's going on over there?" Sun asks.
The girls turn to see the poster and from the looks of some students excitement, they know what it is and seems interesting.
"That's easy Sun, the poster is for the Canterlot High's talent show tomorrow," Applejack answers.
"Talent show?" Sun questionably asks.
"The Canterlot Talent Show is a show when people perform their hobbies, interest, and anything that fits them." Rainbow Dash explains.
"There will a lot of people there seeing the show and during the time we have one of our bake sales to help raise money for our school and trips," Applejack adds.
"There's going to be singing, dancing, and other kinds of performance our fellow classmates are going to put on," Pinkie screams with excitement.
Sun giggles and says , "It must be interesting. Did any of you enter the talent show?"
"Well, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie did. The rest of us were busy helping with the bake sale," Rarity explains.
"What you two do? Sun asks.
"I showed everyone my awesome skateboarding skills," Rainbow Dash answers with pride.
Pinkie laughs and says, "And I put on a routine with all my tricks and party supplies. I even laughed myself out of one of my party canons."
Sun looks at Pinkie with a confused look and says, "You launch yourself with your party canon,"
"Yep," Pinkie answers with a smile.
"Don't worry sugarcube, Pinkie didn't hurt herself. In fact, her routine actually help her win second place in the talent show," Applejack replies.
Sun seems interested that the talent show is full of people showing some of their talents. It also been used to help raise some money for the school. As they are talking, Rarity looks at the poster and then looks at Sun thinking about something. Just then an idea hits her and might be one of her best ideas for her.
Rarity turns to Sun with excitement and says, "Sun, why don't you enter the talent show?"
"Me? In the talent show?" Sun questionably replies.
"Yes. You are a great singer and dancer. I'm sure you can do one of them for the talent show. I can even make you a nice outfit for the occasion. You could be a star," Rarity explains with excitement.
Sun starts to feel a bit uncomfortable and says, "I don't know about being a star, Rarity. I'm not sure about being in the show."
"How come?" Rainbow asks.
"Well, I never been on stage that much. Sure two of them is when I got the crown from the Spring Fling and the Fall Formal, but this is different," Sun explains.
She then looks down and says, "I'll be performing in front of an audience. I feel like I did before, but for something else."
Rarity and the others understand why Sun is feeling skeptic about being in the talent show. She hardly go on stage to perform, like she talks to people during sales, and presentations during class. They think it something that might be good for her.
"Well, maybe this will be a change in pass for you," Rainbow Dash says with encouragement.
"And you'll be able to sing in front of everyone in the gym," Fluttershy adds.
Then Applejack says, "And it will be good for you to try something new, other than studying all the time."
Sun starts to think on what her friends are saying. They think her being in the talent show will be good for her. She gets to sing, and will be doing it in front of her friends and family. After giving much thought, she thinks it will be a good idea to be in the talent show.
Sun turns to her friends with a smile and says, "Sure. Maybe it wouldn't be bad to be in the talent show."
"That's good to hear," Rarity says with a smile.
"So whatcha wanna do for it?" Applejack asks.
Sun smiles and answers, "I think I'll sing for the show. I remember some songs and wrote them down. And who knows, maybe tonight I'll remember another song."
"Sounds good to me," Pinkie replies with a smile.
After having their lunch and their discussion, Sun and the others go to see Principal Celestia to get her sign up for the talent show. Then after school, Rarity has pick a very nice dress with a dress jacket and shows. The dress is a light yellow dress with some thin yellow laces on the side. The dress comes with a black dress short sleeve jacket with a black button, and some high heel shoes.
After the day Sun has, she's all ready to get some dinner and some sleep for the night. Later that night, after having some dinner and ready for bed, Sun is sleeping in bed and hoping to be ready to the talent show tomorrow.
As Sun sleeps she then starts to dream. This dream is the small filly on a swing with her older brother and sister. The young filly is singing a song she has made up and is very happy by it. The older brother and sister love hearing their little sister singing and know she has a beautiful voice. On the bench is her parent along with their baby sister, and the little colt plays on the playset. The dream makes Sun feel so happy that she can remember about her having a family, but doesn't remember name, but someday she will.
Later on, tonight is the night of the Canterlot High School talent show. Everyone are getting into the gym to see the show and are very excited. Sun along with her friends are backstage making sure she is ready to perform for the show.
Rarity brushes her hair and happily says, "Oh darling, you look so lovely in the dress I've picked for you."
"It's a very nice dress, Rarity, but the whole show is about expressing the people's talent, not their looks," Sun replies while blushing.
"Of course I know that, but it's not wrong to have a good appearance," Rarity remarks.
Applejack makes a smug on her face and says, "Yeah. You've been fiddling with her dress and hair for a while."
"Yeah. Keep that up and Sun might not even be in the show," Rainbow Dash remarks.
"Whatever you say," Rarity says with a bit of a huff.
She takes a small bits of her hair to make a small ponytail in the back and it's tied with a small hair tie with a shimmering sun on it. Sun looks at herself in the mirror and can see she looks very different and looks a bit grown up. As Sun looks at the mirror,she starts to notice seeing an alicorn that looks alot like her in the mirror. Then it disappears. Sun thinks it might be her imagination and decides to continue being in the show.
Fluttershy asks, "So what kind of song you're going to sing in the show?"
Sun turns to face Fluttershy and the others and says, "Well, I have this dream last night and I really like the song. I decided to sing that one in the show."
Pinkie comes up and happily says, "Wow! I wish I have songs coming out of my dreams.
"Know you Pinkie, it will be possible," Applejack replies while laughing.
Sun and the others start to laugh, even Pinkie joins in the laughter. They are glad to come here to see Sun perform in the show and can't wait to see what kind of song Sun is going to sing.
Just then, they hear Principal Celestia though the speaker saying, "Good evening everyone, the talent show will begin in five minutes. Those who are in the audience need to take their seat. For those who will be in the show will remain in the back stage until their turn is over."
Rainbow turns to the others and says, "Well, we better take our seat for the show."
"Yeah. See you guys after the show," Sun replies with a smile.
After saying their goodbyes, Rainbow and the others leave to go take their seats while Sun is going to wait for her turn to come up in the talent show. Applejack and Pinkie Pie has a dessert and a drink stand for the audience to help raise money for the school.
Principal Celestia and her sister, Vice Principal Luna are on stage with a full audience of friends and family of the students being in the talent show.
"Good evening everyone and welcome to the Canterlot High talent show. Tonight some of our fellow students will perform with their talent and have fun," Principal Celestia announces.
Then Vice Principal Luna says, "After the show we will have a third place, a second place, and a first place winner. Which one of our fellow students will win this year and this year's winner, we have a very special prize."
Everyone start to clap and cheer for the show is starting. They can't wait to see what the students have put on for the show.
During the talent show, there are a lot of students who done stuff with music, dance moves, and other kind of performances. Flash and his band play a song while Trixie and her friends put on a magic show and they make sure it won't make people sick like the last time it happen.
After some of the students perform in the show, it's one of the other students run and it's the one before Sun goes on. Sun is waiting by the stage for her turn to come up, but feels a bit nervous about it. For some strange reason Sun feels like this sort of thing has happen to her before.
Sun closes her eyes and think of good thought so she won't feel so nervous. As she tries to think of happy thoughts, Sun starts to remember something that might be from her past. HEr past shows a big audience just like the one is now, but full of ponies. All the ponies are here to see the young students magic presentation and demonstrate their magical little filly from her dream is standing behind the curtain looking very nervous, but she's a bit older.
As the filly is shaking like a tree, a gentle and familiar voice says, "Is there something wrong?"
The filly looks up to see the alicorn princess again. She can see that the princess wants to know why the filly is looking so nervous.
The filly shows a nervous smile and says, "Um, no… princess. I'm completely fine."
"Really. You look a bit nervous about being on stage," The alicorn replies.
The filly sighs in defeat, sits on her bottom and says, "Yes. I am nervous. I… I never been on stage before."
The princess sits next to her and says, "It's perfectly normal for some young ponies to feel nervous about performing in front of others."
"So what do I do about that?" The young filly asks with concern.
"Sometimes it's good to think of happy thoughts. Other times it's good to take a deep breath so you could calm down. But remember, the most important this is to express your magical talent and enjoy it." The princess explains with a smile.
The filly smiles back and says, "I will. Thank you princess."
"You're welcome. Now you better get ready, your turn is coming up soon," The princess calmly says.
"The filly nods her head and happily says, "Okay."
The young filly runs to get close to the stage and ready to perform on stage. Of course, she makes sure to take deep breath and think happy thoughts to help her feel less nervous. The princess looks at her student with a calm smile and glad to help her student with her problem.
When Sun opens her eyes, she can see she remember herself being nervous when she's a little girl, but someone helps her get over her problem. Sun feels happy that she is relaxed and ready to be in the show now.
Just then, Sun hears Princess Celestia announces, "And next it will be Sun performing a song."
Sun takes a deep breath and start to walk on stage. People in the building including her friends and family are clapping and cheering for her. Sun cna see her family and friends cheering her on and wish her good luck. Sun hops she is able to sing well and will do great in the talent show.
Sun starts to sing the songs from her dreams and it's a song no one has ever heard before.
Sun sings:
Promise that we'll stay for the sunset,
And when the moon shines through the darkness,
We can find the path that leads us home,
And on the way you'll…
...maybe…
...sing me a song.
Promise that you always will be there,
Hold my hand if ever I'm real scared,
Help me stand up tall if I fall down,
Make me laugh away all my bluest days!
How could you promise you always would be there?
Why'd you have to go away somewhere?
Every morning into every night,
Do you watch over me like the sun in the sky?
Am I all alone, or standing in your light?
I wish that I could…
...maybe…
...sing you a song…
...tonight.
You promised me we'd stay for the sunset...
After singing her song, everyone start to cheer for Sun for a wonderful performance. Sun is very happy that a lot of people love the song she sings, and feels happy singing it as well. Her friends, along with her sister and father are clapping and cheering for Sun for her song and glad she has done great on stage.
After the talent show, Sun along with her sister and father are back home since it's kind of late. Sun puts a small trophy that has 1st engraved on it in the living room. Sun is kind of happy that she has won first place in the talent show. She remembers that her friends and family are proud of her. She remember that Rainbow has won the show last time and Pinkie has won second place.
Sun start to believe that singing must be one of the most important things that happen in her life. She still wishes to know what her dreams mean. But knows one thing, she can remember that she has met Celestia before, but not fully sure what that is. However, she can see that it will take some more time until her memory fully comes back and understand what her origins are.
