Chapter 3: Refuge At Zecora's

It was a few hours since Zecora got Sunset Shimmer to safety, and was able to warm her up. She also has her dog lay with her so she can get warmer after being in the snow for who knows how long.

After some time Sunset Shimmer starts to wake up. She feels really dazed and feels like she can't move at all.

"Huh, where am I?" Sunset says still very dazed under her condition.

"Ah you're a wake I see, can I offer you some tea?" Zecora asks.

"Thank you tea sounds good right about now," Sunset Shimmer says happily.

Zecora goes to her stove in the kitchen to make some tea for Sunset and herself. Sunset realizes that she is in a nice warm bed, but gets really surprised when she sees the dog sleeping next to her.

"Timber and I were heading to home we go, what were you doing out in the snow?" Zecora asks speaking in rhyme.

"Long story short, this website Anon-A-Miss has been posting my friends' as well as other people's secret. Somehow everyone is convinced that I was doing it, including my own friends. So I decided to run away from home." Sunset Shimmer says.

"I see your heart has become darkened, because a lot of people became cold hearted." Zecora replies.

"You can say that… ah achoo!" Sunset Shimmer says sneezing because of the cold.

"I see you caught the flu, maybe I can make you some stew." Zecora says.

Sunset Shimmer is happy that Zecora is taking care of her, but she is still too weak to go anywhere right now and the snow is going to get even worse.

Meanwhile Back at Canterlot High School:

Applejack and the others are still trying to figure out a way to find Sunset Shimmer. Meanwhile, the Crusaders are trying to work on their apology video and wish there was a way to get the message to Sunset Shimmer.

Earlier that day they went to her house and found out that she left her book and cell phone behind, so she can't look on the Internet.

"What are we gonna do?" Pinkie Pie asks.

"I know what you mean, we have no way to reach her," Rainbow Dash says sadly.

"We've got to do something to bring her back," Fluttershy says.

"Yeah, but what?" Rainbow dash says.

"I know what you mean sugar cube, my sister and her friends' video won't be able to reach her and we can't use her book either." Applejack explains.

The girls are still trying to think of away to find her until…

"I got it!" Rarity shouts causing everyone to silence a bit.

Rarity calms herself down and says, "Perhaps I may have a solution. Now I know this maybe a preposterous idea but maybe we can put on a special A.P.B to find our friend."

"You mean putting on a special bulletin to find her?" Rainbow Dash asks.

"That's a crazy idea Rarity!" Pinkie Pie shouts.

"Yeah, but just might be crazy enough to work," Applejack says.

"I know we can put photos of Sunset Shimmer in the newspaper so people can recognize her," Fluttershy suggests.

"Yeah and maybe we can publish an apology letter to Sunset Shimmer along with her school picture." Sweetie Belle suggests.

"Yeah, but we're gonna need some help," Rainbow Dash adds.

"I know, how about we can put her picture along with the letter on the Internet so people all over the country can help?" Pinkie Pie suggests.

"I think that is a good idea Pinkie and maybe we can send posters to students and pass them on to their friends, who will pass them on to their friends and so on," Rainbow Dash says.

"Alright girls, let's get to work." Applejack says.

A few days later at Zecora's house:

Sunset Shimmer is able to get over her flu. But right now she starts to get a little homesick. Even after what happened she really misses her friends so much and wishes she had never runaway.

Then Zecora comes around and asks, "I see that your flu is no longer around, but why are you feeling so down?"

"I… I… miss my friends, even after everything that has happened," Sunset Shimmer says and feels like she going to cry, and then a drop of tear manages to fall into her cup of tea.

"Perhaps I could lift your spirit up, but first I will need your cup," Zecora says.

"Uh okay," Sunset Shimmer says as she hands her cup to Zecora.

She starts to look into her cup with a little serious face, and then she says, "I can see you are very sad, because your friends have been treating you bad."

She looks a little closer into her cup and says, "But look, I can see you and the people who really care, I can see the happiness you all share."

"Really, how you can tell?" Sunset Shimmer asks.

"Maybe it is possible that your friends will realize their mistake, to bring you back is a chance they must take," Zecora says.

"Really, but how will I know," Sunset Shimmer asks.

"You will know when the time is right; you will end up seeing your own face in your sight." Zecora says.

"Ok, thanks Zecora," Sunset Shimmer replies.

"Ok I hope your trip will go well, but there's no saying what fate will tell," Zecora says.

"Thanks for everything Zecora; I hope I will see you someday, bye." With that Sunset Shimmer left Zecora's house wondering if her prediction will come true along with trying to find her place in this world.
