//------------------------------// // 20. Quiet beach time with Blyss Bunny // Story: EqG Tales: Enchantimals Edition // by Brian Sheil //------------------------------// As the sun rises at Canterlot Beach, Sunset Shimmer walks on the boardwalk as she admires the scene. “Sure is peaceful around here when there’s no people on it.” Sunset thought out loud. “Gives a wholesome feeling of peace.” “Greetings, Sunset.” Said a familiar hippie voice. Sunset turns and sees Tree Hugger wearing a flowery dress and sandals coming her way. “Hey, Tree Hugger.” Sunset greeted. “Getting up bright and early?” “You bet.” Tree Hugger said. “When the sun rises, many people wake up to enjoy the sunrise.” “I remember when me and my friends were at the music festival, Rainbow Dash got me up early for some yoga. Afterwards, she and I saw the sun rising. That was quite a sight.” “I agree.” Said the voice of a young girl. She was cream skinned with golden yellow hair. She also has rabbit ears and a pink nose. And is carrying a pink mat. “Blyss Bunny?” Sunset gasped. “What are you doing here?” “Since it’s dawn,” Blyss explained, “we came here to enjoy the beach. As you can tell by my mat, we enjoy yoga.” “We?” Tree Hugger wondered. “No doubt,” Sunset figured, “Blyss brought along her friend: Oatsy.” A cream colored bunny rabbit hopped along to join the others. “He’s adorable.” Sunset praised. “Thank you.” Blyss praised. “Would you like to join me, Sunset?” “I already have my beach wear on, and I can use my blanket for a mat. So, why not?” “How about you, Tree Hugger?” “I love to, Blyss.” Tree Hugger said. “But, I have things to do on my own. Ciao!” Tree Hugger left the duo. Sunset and Blyss made their way to the beach. After doing their yoga, the girls sat cross legged, and enjoy the environment. “I have to admit, Blyss.” Sunset said calmly. “This is very relaxing. Do you do yoga in other places besides the beach?” “Sometimes.” Blyss answered. “There are other good places for yoga. Forests, mountain areas, near lakes, I hear that some people do yoga on the roof of buildings they live in.” They sit with their eyes closed and enjoy the sounds of the waves. Later, Sunset meets Twilight at the coffee house. “You spent your beach morning with Blyss Bunny?” Twilight asked. “I sure did.” Sunset replied. “Blyss and her little friend, Oatsy, became good company.” “I did some yoga myself earlier.” “I heard.” Sunset informed. “You joined up with Sela Sloth. She must’ve brought out the calmness within you.” Twilight gave Sunset a warm smile. “True.”
