A few days later after the Manehatten case:
Sunset Shimmer, Jingle, and his pet pig, Herbert, are still trying to find their own inspiration or a special place to call home.
"So, Jingle, do you think we can take a break?" Sunset Shimmer asks completely tired out.
"Sure, Herbert is getting tired too," Jingle replies.
So they decide to sit down to have some of the lunch that they packed from their trip in Manehatten. After having their lunch they have a nice rest on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere.
"So Jingle, where do you think we should head to?" Sunset Shimmer asks.
"Depends where the winds blow," Jingle replies strumming away on his guitar.
"What about Herbert?" Sunset Shimmer asks.
"Well, we just have to wait until Herbert finds his inspiration," Jingle replies.
"Okay," Sunset Shimmer replies in an awkward tone.
Just then, a truck comes by.
"Hey look a corn truck," Sunset Shimmer says.
"Looks like his inspiration is here," Jingle says.
With that Herbert's desire for corn has kicked in. So Jingle and Sunset Shimmer go on Herbert's back and Herbert starts chasing after the truck. With Herbert's speed he catches up with the truck in no time. But the truck made an unexpected stop.
Herbert stops as well. When the owner of the truck gets out, Jingle and Herbert recognize who he is right away.
"Patch is that you?" Jingle asks in excite.
"Jingle, I'd recognize that pig and spiky hair anywhere." Patch replies.
Patch is a gray skin boy with dark gray hair. He also has lighter gray around his eye that look like an eye patch. He is wearing his working clothes, which are green coveralls. He travels to different cities delivering corn to stores for a living.
"So Jingle, what are you doing here?" Patch asks.
"Me and my new friend are traveling to find our inspiration," Jingle answers.
"Really? Let me see your new friend." Patch asks.
Jingle decides to let Patch see his new friend. When Patch gets a good look at Sunset Simmer he feels like he has seen her before.
"Hey you know kid, you look kind of familiar," Patch says as he is looking at Sunset Shimmer really closely.
Then it finally hit him, "Now I remember, you're the one on the paper."
"What Paper?" Sunset Shimmer asks.
"Now what was your name?" Patch says as he is trying to remember.
"She's Sunrise Glimmer," Jingle says wrongly.
"It's Sunset Shimmer!" Sunset Shimmer shouts.
"Yeah Sunset Shimmer," Patch replies then hands Sunset Shimmer a newspaper article.
"Wow, that's me," Sunset Shimmer says and very surprised when she sees her picture on the paper.
"I was right, you are the famous missing girl that everyone in Canterlot High has been looking for across the country, nationwide," Patch confirms.
"I'm famous in the paper? They're looking for me?" Sunset Shimmer asks surprisingly.
"Yeah and what's more there's a letter for you in the next page," Patch advises Sunset.
When Sunset Shimmer turns to the next page, she sees something that really catches her attention.
Sunset Shimmer reads to herself:
Dear Sunset Shimmer,
I know you might not want to come back after what happened, but we decided to confess what really happened.
Apple Bloom's voice comes in, "You see, Anon-A-Miss is actually three young girls: Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo, and I'm the one who really started it. I got jealous that Applejack is hanging out with you and the others except her family. So I made up Anon-A-Miss' profile and wrote the story about Applejack to make her look bad.
Then Sweetie Belle's voice comes in, "Then when Apple Bloom told about what she did, I told her that I felt the same way. So while you were at my house, I took your phone while you were sleeping and downloaded the photos and videos on your phone.
Scootaloo's voice comes in, "So Anon-A-Miss got out of control. People started sending her other secrets and photos and we posted all of them."
Sweetie Belle's voice comes back, "We are so sorry for what we did. It was wrong of us to cause you to become an outcast, but worst of all we caused you to run away from home."
Apple Bloom's voice comes back, "Then when we told the girls and everyone at the school what really happened, they all felt really awful about it. So we decided to have these posters and an article about your situation set up so we can find you and a letter to let you know how sorry we are for doing that to you."
Scootaloo's voice comes back, "All we're asking is your forgiveness and hopefully it will let you know how much we really care for you and how sorry we are.
Sincerely,
Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo
After finishing reading the letter, Sunset Shimmer realizes that after realizing what happened everyone in Canterlot High including her own friends are looking for her. She then starts to cry and realize how much she misses her friends back home.
"You really miss your friends, don't ya?" Patch asks.
"Uh, huh," Sunset Shimmer says while crying.
"Yeah, I'll bet they really miss you," Patch suggests and then he says, "You've got to get home right away."
"You're right Patch, but how?" Sunset Shimmer agrees then asks in a sad tone.
"To be honest, I've got a corn delivery going to Canterlot City, would you like to tag along with me?" Patch suggests.
"Really, are you sure?" Sunset Shimmer asks happily.
"Well of course, you've got to get home so your friends can make amends to you," Patch replies.
Then he turns to Jingle and asks, "Hey Jingle do you and Herbert want to come too?"
"Of course it will be nice to travel with familiar faces," Jingle answers as he strums his guitar.
With that everyone gets on to Patch's truck and make their way to Canterlot City. Patch also explains that it will take another three days to get to Canterlot City, but Sunset Shimmer thinks it will be worth the wait.
