???, ??:??; Somewhere In A Paradise
When she hit the ground, the world only went black for a second before she found herself in a field, new clothes, and with a pair of wings just like her mom's.
She felt no pain.
No sadness.
Only joy.
Sunset knew she could never go back, though.
"Princess Celestia, Mom," she said to herself, taking her boots off and putting her feet in a stream of cool water, "I'm ready to be your daughter. I'm sorry it took so long."
Nonsense, my child, she heard her mom's voice in her head.
She knew that she wasn't there.
That they wouldn't see each other.
Again.
Ever.
"But I'm ready. Even if I am late."
Since she had arrived in this place, she didn't have a sense of time, so when someone came to her, she didn't know if she had been there for a minute, several eons, or somewhere in between.
"I told your mom," a familiar voice said.
Sunset turned around, but didn't find a vampire.
"What?"
Seth, but no vampire.
Not as messy, either.
"One stupid move."
"What happened?"
He sat next to her, leaving his sandals on when he put his feet in the stream.
"No vampires in the afterlife, apparently."
"No, what happened?"
"CHS has about 25% of its students left. 75% of the original body trolled you, so now they're rotting in Equestrian Dungeons. Your former-friends are with them, and I decided to jump the following day at midnight. Exactly a week after you. I know you're going to ask this, so I didn't try to learn any new songs just for your funeral. I had your mom, Princess Twilight, and the Equestrian others come in white. Princess Celestia made the week that you were dead into a holiday. She'll only raise the Sun halfway, and nopony sees her during that time. Essentially all of Equestria is put on pause for the week. Princess Twilight and her friends are going to try to come into the human world as much as possible to keep order and help Celestia. Greg and Mitzi weren't sad when I went, but only because I told them not to be. They knew it was for you, so they accepted it immediately. Your mom really loves you."
"How do I know that you won't hurt me?"
"I gave up Earth and being a vampire to come here, didn't I?"
Sunset forced a hug on Seth, knocking both of them into the stream.
"Sunset!" Seth laughed.
"Seth!" Sunset laughed in response.
After playing in the stream, they laid on their backs on the ground.
"Seth?"
"Yeah?"
"New life?"
"New life."
