"Gah!" Sunset shouts: "Why can't I fall asleep?"
She looks at her phone; it's 3 am. She went to bed at 11, and it has been 4 hours. Although it's a bad idea, Sunset decides to take a stroll in the park nearby. It's September, her favorite season. Back in Equestria, Autumn is the only time in the year when she could get some resting time. Of course, the human world's schedule is drastically different from that of a pony world.
"Stand," Sunset mumbles as she gets changed: "stand..."
It's quiet outside, and all the lights in nearby buildings are extinguished at this hour of the day. Greeted by the Autumn blaze, after opening her door, Sunset decides to add more clothing. After another ten minutes or so, Sunset opens her door again and sets off for the park. It's cold outside. Quietly, she walks on the street, mediating on her life. Back in the old days, she used to sneak in the middle of the night and enjoy the coolness that Fall has to offer. She would lay on the grass and observe the stars as wind blow through her fur.
"I was so lonely..." Sunset says to herself. However, she didn't notice that someone is following her to the park.
"So lonely..." Sunset mumbles as she reaches the park and sits against a tree.
Just as Sunset looks up to the starry sky, her face is greeted by the fist of a stand.
"Argh!" Sunset gasps as she narrowly avoids the attack. It's a powerful blow as the tree fell due to impact.
"Show yourself!" Sunset shouts as her stand enters a defensive position.
"AHHHHH!" the enemy stand lets out an almost monstrous shriek before picking up the tree, holding it like a spear, and charge towards Sunset.
It's too late! Sunset thought to herself: I have to fight!
"DORARARA...!" Sunset's stand unleashes a loud cry as it rapidly punches through the wood. Seconds later, there's no wood left.
As the two stands exchange punches, Sunset suddenly feels a sharp pain shooting up from her hands.
"What the..." Sunset tries to move her figures, but the pain gets worse as she tries. At that moment, her attention diverted from the fight and left an opening for the enemy to attack.
"AHHHH!" the enemy stand cries as it lands a punch on Sunset's stand's face.
"AH!" Sunset lets out a scream as the same sharp pain shoots spread on her face: "Ah, ah..." I can't close my mouth! Sunset thought: It hurts! What's happening? It feels like I’m losing control over my own body!
The enemy ceases attack, giving Sunset a moment to formulate a plan.
Think of something, quick! Sunset thought as the enemy standstill.
"AHHH!" the enemy stand lets out another cry before launching its' fists at Sunset. With her hands injured, Sunset decides to block with her forearms.
I don't know if this is going to work, Sunset thought as the sharp pain starts to spread in her arms: Soon, I will lose control over my arms, but it's worth a try!
"Ah!" Sunset lets out a punch so powerful that her foe is sent back flying. At the same, the enemy also lands a punch on her rib.
It hurts! So bad! But I can't give up just yet!
As her enemy flies back, Sunset struggles to keep herself from fainting. The moment is here! As the enemy hits the stump where the tree once was, Sunset activates her ability. Within an instant, her injuries are healed completely, and her enemy is trapped in the tree.
"That was a close one," Sunset says with a shaky voice: "Good things it worked."
"AHHhhhh..." the enemy faints after a final scream and starts snoring.
"Are you serious?" Sunset says:" Can't believe it...I am fighting for my life, and you are sleeping this whole time?"
Sunset walks towards her foe and removes the hood on her hoodie: "Fluttershy?"
"Wha...huh?" Fluttershy wakes up: "Where am I? What did you do to me?"
"You are stuck in a tree," Sunset takes out her phone and turns the flashlight on: "See?"
"What? Oh, I must be sleep-walking again! I am so sorry!"
"Don't worry about it," Sunset turns off the flashlight: "Say, Fluttershy, do you attack others while sleep-walking?"
"I don't think so!" Fluttershy replies as her stand activates automatically without her noticing. Soon, the tree starts rotting at an abnormal speed.
"It's a long story, but you attacked me while you are asleep." Sunset says: "We need to talk to the Principle and the Vice Principle tomorrow."
"But..."
"Here, let me get you...WOW!" the tree falls before Sunset's stand catches it.
"What? What?" Fluttershy stands up: "Sunset!"
"Fluttershy!" Sunset shouts, throw the tree aside: "What do you want?"
"N...nothing! I am just worried!"
"Ok," Sunset sighs: "Do you want me to walk you home?"
"Y...yes, thank you."
"All right," Sunset says: "But you have to stay at least 7 feet away from me on our way."
"Oh my..." Sunset whispers as she wakes up. It's a beautiful day outside, but she'd rather stay in bed. Unfortunately, school starts in an hour and her home is about 30 minutes away. She didn't get much sleep last night due to the event yesterday. Luckily, her injuries are healed, and she doesn't have to worry about going to school.
"Stands, huh?" Sunset looked at her hands and thought: I don't truly know what my powers are, but I need to get to know it soon. Although Fluttershy didn't mean to attack her last night, the sheer destruction her stand let out was devasting. I have to learn how to counter powers like that. More importantly, I have to get mine stand under control. I can't let it run wild and cause havoc without me knowing.
After doing her morning routine, Sunset looks into the mirror and says: "You can do it, Sunset. You are a changed pony!"
