//------------------------------// // Chapter 11: Safe Returns // Story: Sun's Equestria Girls Adventure: Daring Magic // by Pinkie Pie Sweets //------------------------------// At a different part of the city, Caballeron and his henchmen are loading large bags full of items into a different vehicle. Few of them contain the treasures they have stolen from the pyramid, another two bags contain something else. Something that is soon going to be discovered. Daring Do steps in to confront them," Not so fast Caballeron!" The five men stop what they're doing to see Daring Do in the flesh. Soon, Sun and her friends, along with Aqua circle around them. They gasp in shock to find themselves surrounded that two of the men srop one of the bags. Soon, many green gemstones based jewelry fall out of the bag. Everyone else gasp in shock, while Sun, Rainbow, and Daring Do are not surprised about it. Many people who are walking by are shocked to see the city's glowpaz treasure. Aqua confront them, "That's them! They're the ones who stole our glowpaz!" Hearing the statement and seeing the evidence, many of the people are upset and circle around the area. "I should have know this is a plot to soiled my name so you can steal whatever you wanted," Daring Do sternly says. "Of course that was the plan! At first, I just wanted the glowpaz along with the treasure, and the necklace. But then, I saw an opportunity to write you out of the story for good!" Caballeron angrily confess, and maniacally laughs. Everyone gasp horrified to learn the truth, and to have been deceived. Even the girls are shocked to hear Caballeron's confession. Cabballeron faces Daring Do as he says, "And with the destruction, you leaving in your wake, it didn't take long to convince the people you were a villain." "You're wrong Caballeron, and I won't let you break my spirit again. Because I am never give up hope that I can protect people and ancient artifacts from miscreants like you," Daring Do says, not going to lose faith in herself. The people begin to tell Caballeron and his men off in anger. Caballeron tries to turn the blame the other way, "R-remember, she ruined your statue!" He looks to see it's not working, and angrily shouts, "You're fools to believe in her!" "You expect us to believe you, after the lying you did, especially for what you put Sun through," Aqua furiously says. Many of the people are looking confused about it. Sand Wind, Papa Copper, and Apple Merchant come over to ask. "What do you mean?" Sand Wind asks. "These are the ones who kidnapped Sun and took her away from the friends who came all this way to find her," Aqua explains. This shocked everyone even more to hear what has happen. Sun's friends begin to walks towards the five villains creating a closed circle. "If you think we're going to let all of this go you're are dead wrong," Adagio sternly says. "That's right! You took our friend! You not only tried to take Somnambula's necklace from her, but you also tried to use her as a hostage!" Rainbow scolds. "And we don't like the kind of people who tried to hurt our friend," Fluttershy says, even she has fire of anger in her eyes. "You medding brats should have stayed out of it!" Caballeron angrily scolds. "Well, you made it our business! You stole our friend from us, and we wanted her back," Falling Star sternyl replies. "She's right. After all, Sun seems to have very good friends, and they love her very much," Daring Do says. Adagio turns to Sonata, and calmly says, "Sonata, please be a dear and help give these guys a cold shower." "Okay Dagi," Sonata says, giggling with her hand over her mouth. She then turns to the others, and asks, "Rainbow Dash, Applejack, be dears and help Sonata out." "Sounds good to me," Rainbow says with a grin. "Sure," Applejack says, tipping her hat. The three girls go to the close fire hydrant, and applejack holds a large wrench. Applejack and Rainbow turns the wrench and water begins to come out. Sonata then uses the power of her geode to use her water magic. She lifts the water and is going to give them a cold shower Like a spout, Sonata launches it at Caballeron and his men making them roll away from the car with the stolen good inside. Soon the five men are being pushed to the way with water still soaking them. Seeing they have enough, Adagio says, "Alright girls, I think they are nice and clean enough." Rainbow and Applejack turn off the hydrant, and Sonata stop using her magic. Soon Caballeron and his men are soak and wet. Everyone begin laughing to see this sight. Daring Do step in front of the five men with a smirk, "Sounds to me like you plans became all wet!" The five men get up and are still wet. Soon the men run away still in their soaked clothes. Caballeron hollers in angry, "You'll pay for this Daring Do!" Soon Caballeron and his men are gone, and now everything will be put back where they belong. Everton begin to cheer with smiles on their faces. They cheer for Sun and her friends, along with Daring Do for saving their treasures. Soon, Daring Do, Sun, and her friends put all give everyone their glowpaz, put the treasure back in the pyramid, and Somnambula's necklace has been returned to the museum. Of course, the people said the girls can have the glowpaz they already have, and Aqua and Sand Wind give Sun a new glowpaz necklace. At the Airport somewhere outside of the city, the girls and Daring Do are going their separate ways. "Are you sure you don't want to come with us?" Twilight asks. "No. I got a story to get started on. Not to mention, I need to start sending people the money to fix and make up for the damages I've done," Daring Do says. "We're going to miss you," Sonata replies. "Yeah. I think I'm going to miss you too. If it wasn't for you, I would have given up entirely. You all remind me to never gave up hope and believe in myself, and that even though I tried to do good, I'm still responsible for my action," Daring So replies. "We're glad that we can help get this sorted out," Falling Star says. Sun comes up to Daring Do still holding the serpentine stone that is now in a tiara. "Here Daring, I think you should take it. I know that you'll find a place for it. The magic is gone now so it's a normal gem now," Sun says, presenting the tiara to the adventurer. Daring Do takes the tiara, and says, "I think having it back at the city of Somnambula will be just the place to keep it." "Good idea," Sun says with a smile. Just then, the announcer on the speaker says, "Flight to Canterlot City is now boarding!" "I guess it's time to go," Pinkie says. "Yeah. I hope I'll see you all around someday. And you know, you girls are great friends," Daring Do says. After the girls and Daring Do say their goodbyes, Sun and her friends are heading towards the plan that will take them home. Daring Do just remember something she needs to do so she heads to a pay phone, and make an important call. At Canterlot Airport, Principal Celestia, Vice Principal Luna, Discord, Screwball, and all the main six families are waiting for the girls. After receiving a call from unknown caller, they all rush over to the airport to wait for the girls. They are all showing worried looks on their faces. Next to Twilight Velvet is another woman around her forties or so. The woman has a pale, light amber color, a light cornflower blush gray and a lighter streak long hair in a bun with a long bang, and a moderate blue eye color. She wears a white long sleeve button up shirt with a teal tie, a black skirt, with high heel shoes. She has a scroll wrapped in a blue ribbon as a pin. "Where are they?" Twilight Velvet asks. "Don't worry honey, I'm sure the kids will be here soon," Night Light reassures. "I do hope so," Twilight Velvet says. "Still, I do hope they are alright. I should have seen it," Mayor Mare replies. "I still can't believe that you're The Dazzlings guardians," Discord replies, looking confused. "Discord, I think you're getting a little off topic. What Mayor Mare is saying is that the Dazzlings and the girls cared for Sun, especially for what she has done for them. It would make sense for them to go after her, and I wouldn't be surprised if they have some help," Maud replies. Discord sighs, and says, "You're right, Sun means so much to the girls as much as they mean so much to her. I guess while we were trying to figure things out, the girls manage to find where Sun disappeared to and gone after her. Wish I could be able to, and who knows where she is at this time." Shining Armor looks up ahead, and begin to show a smile on his face. "I think we have an idea where Sun is now," Shining Armor says. Confused, Discord turns around to see what Shining Armor is looking at, and lets out a gasp. The other parents and principals turn an are surprised and shocked to see what they are seeing. Going down the escalator is Twilight and the other girls, and what's more, Sun is with them close to the front. Surprised to see their families, the girls run towards them with smiles on their faces. The parents and siblings are happy that they run to each other as well. Soon, the family show embrace of love, and glad to see each other again. Screwball happily says, "You're back sis!" "I really miss you," Sun says. "We miss you too," Discord says, as he and screwball give Sun a hug. The other families are go glad to see the girls again. "Oh darling, you're safe," Rarity's mom says in relief. "Oh Rainbow," Rainbow mother says in relief. "You really had us worried Twily," Shining Armor says, giving Twilight a hug. "I'm sorry," Twilight replies. "I'm so glad you three are safe," Mayor Mare says to the Dazzlings. Then gives them a hug in reply. Now all the families are reunited, and their crazy adventure is able to prove even more that friendship is magical, and very powerful. As much as hope, and belief. Over a week has passed and everything is normal around Canterlot City. Sun decides to relax herself, by hanging out with Nina, and her other friend, Wallflower in the garden. Since, she is unable to be with her friends for another week. "They got grounded?" Wallflower questions. "Yeah. Even though they saved me and the city, they still end up getting in trouble for sneaking a way… and for making them worry so much, " Sun answers. "That's rather rough," Wallflower comments. "You could say that again," Nina replies. Wallflower pats Nina on the head as she says, "Still, I'm sorry about what happened to you. I know you were looking forward to having fun at the convention without anything too crazy." "That's okay. In away, I end up learning a lot from my unexpected journey," Sun says. "What's that?" Wallflower asks. "I learned that you should never lose hope, and stick for what you believe in. By then, they may end up helping you prevail in sorts of way. Second is that sometimes trying to do good isn't easy, and even if you made mistakes, you should try to correct them," Sun says. "Those are good lessons," Wallflower agrees. Sun giggles, and says, "Yeah. But still, there is something else I learned." "What will that be?" Nina asks. "Well, it seem that I don't need to look for anyone or anything that contains Equestrian Magic. Magic seem to always find me and my friends for some crazy reason," Sun answers. "That does seem to happen to us a lot," nina replies. She then purr as she rubs her head against Sun, and says, "Still,i'm glad that you're back home safe and sound. And who knows, you might end up getting into another crazy adventure." "Who knows," Sun says. She then look at the choker Twilight has given to her, and says, "And maybe, there might be another adventure around the corner." Sun then gets up, and asks, "Now that we're finish with some of the gardening and relaxing, want to go to the new restaurant, Tasty Treats for some lunch?" "I like that. I heard that it's been getting popular lately, and that the food is really good," Wallflower says. "Sounds good to me," Nina agrees. The two girls and the cat begin to leave the garden, and are going to get some lunch. As the girls are on their way, the choker on Sun's neck begin to shimmer a bit which goes unknows for Sun. Suddenly a strange shadowy figure appear on the gem. Then quickly disappears in an instant. Sun doesn't know it, but her statement is proven to be more real than she thinks.
