A long time ago in Equestria. There is a school for gifted unicorns that are able to learn how to use their magical abilities. It's also a school where unicorn students can learn other subject and use their magic to help or fully bring out their talent. However, there are some who doesn't use their magic wisely and end up causing trouble.

One day, a young female unicorn is practicing her magic, but she not using it with good intentions. She thinks it will be fun to practice her magic on a younger student by turning her into other animals and objects.

The young mare name is Falling Star. she has light peach fur, black mane with a pink streak on it, light blue eyes, and her cutie mark is a shooting star falling from the sky. She's has powerful magic and will do anything to achieve her goal, but there's one unicorn who always stand in her way. Because of her selfish desire, she has become cruel and dishonest, and will hurt anypony to get what she wants.

Before she can continue hurting the young filly with her magic, a blast of magic hits Falling Stars horn releasing the young filly. The the magical aura floats the her to the one who uses her magic.

Falling Star looks to see where the magic has come from and she is not happy about it. This pony is the one she's been hatting for a long time because of her teaching and powerful magic. The pony who filly her back is a young pony name Sunset Shimmer. She has red and yellow like mane, yellow like fur, light teal like eyes, and her cutie mark is a shimmering sun that is the same color as her mane. She's even wearing a necklace matching her cutie mark.

Sunset makes an angry look and asks in a demanding tone, "What are you doing?"

"Oh, I'm just practicing my magic on this weakening," Falling Star answers in a snobbish done

"You know the rules Falling Star. You're not supposed to use magic that rough on another student," Sunset inorms in a serious tone.

"Who ask you, teacher's pet?" Falling Star angrily says in spite.

Sunset ignore Falling Star's insult and says in a serious tone, "Listen, I'm going to ask you this one time! Leave that filly alone and stop this nonsense or believe me you will regret it!"

"You can't tell me what to do!" Falling Star angrily screams.

In her anger launches a magical beam at Sunset and the young filly. Luckily, sunset is about to make her magic to create a protective shield from Falling Star's magic. Sunset knows that Falling Star's magic is powerful, but not as powerful as her.

Sunset turns to the young filly and informs her, "Silver, I need you to go to Princess Celestia and get some of the teacher here right away. I'll try to get her to stop."

The young filly nods her head and leaves to get the princess and other help. Sunset then uses her magic to repeal Falling Star's. Just then, the two unicorns starts to fight each other and it catches the attention of the other students.

Sunset angrily asks, "Why are you acting like this?"

"Why?! Is because I'm sick and tired of you always being better than me. You get to be Princess Celestia's star student, you get to learn powerful spells, she favors you over everypony," Falling says furiously.

Then use her magic to hit Sunset, but she manages to dodge the wrath. Sunset isn't sure how long she's going to keep this up or how long will her own magic to last her. She knows she needs to reason with Falling Star.

"She does not favor me. She saw me with powerful raw magic and needs me to do focus study to control it," Sunset says trying to reason.

Then Falling Star asks, "And why are you defending that weakening? You don't seem to care about bonding with others."

Sunset answers as she look at her classmates then facing her, "I may not bond much with my classmate and my old friends anymore, but I'm not a bully who hurts other to achieve their goals."

"Besides, every time I tried to be nice or be your friend you always thought as me as an enemy," Sunset adds in anger.

Falling Star is getting very furious about Sunset's talk towards her. In fact, she isn't listen to Sunset at all. She doesn't think Sunset is being honest about and think she only cares about being powerful

Just then Falling Star lights up her horna and says, "I think it's about time for you to be doubt with."

At that moment, Falling Star starts to launch a magical beam from her horn to Sunset. Sunset creates a magical field that will protect her, but it's not going to last her long. Just then, Sunset uses her magic to create a stronger field and make her magic very powerful.

Just then, something strange happen. Sunset's eyes starts to glow white and she starts to be lifted up to the air. Nopony has any idea what is going on or what's happening, not even Falling Star. Just then Sunset strong magic is able to counter Falling Stars magic and is able to blast her horn and sends her to the ground. Sunset is placed on the ground, but collapsed after using most of her magic and strength.

Falling Star looks to see that Sunset has falling to the ground and ses an opportunity to take her out.

She furiously screams, "You're going to be sorry for this!"

Before Falling Star can do anything, a magical force field has appeared trapping her inside.

Falling Stars baning on the field as she angrily scream, "Hey! Let me out!"

"That's enough Falling Star!" a familiar voice calls out.

The students, including Falling Star to see Princess Celestia dn some of the teacher, along with the filly Sunset help escape. The teacher tells the student to go to the classroom and stay in there while two of them take Falling Star to the principal's office.

Princess Celestia looks to see Sunset collapsed on the ground and breathed hard. The princess can tell that Sunset has used too much of her magic. From what little Silver explains to her, sunset is able to save her but Falling Star caused the two to have a fight.

Sunset opens her eyes slightly and mutters,"Princess…"

Princess Celestia picks her up and hold her with her hooves and forearms. Sunset is glad that the princes and the teacher has come because she is completely worn out.

"Sunset, are you alright? Sunset! Sunset!" Princess Celestia scaredly asks, but Sunset feels so weak that she falls unconscious.

Just then, Sun has wakes up from the dream in a cold sweat. Sun feels that this dream is very real and that actually happened to her. However, it seems like the dream is actually a memory. This dream is very hard for her to make out.

"What… what was that?" Sun asks in her thoughts nervously.

Then she scaredly says, "I… It felt like this happened before. A long time ago."

Sun decides to forget about this strange dream and go back to sleep for the night. She knows it's been around a year and a half since she is able to remember half of her name, but can't fully remember who she used to be. She knows she has come connections to ponies from her dreams and memories. Little does Sun knows that for the past few days, Sun is going to learn more about her past and it will comes with an important mission that her two homes needs to be protected from danger she'll be familiar with.
