//------------------------------// // 25 - Special Holidays - Sunset Redux // Story: Sunset Shimmer - Six Friends One Heart // by Babroniedad //------------------------------// Sunset redux The group adjourned to SugarCube Corner, celebrating their reconciliation, and the joy and peace they found in the process. At Sunset’s insistence, the girls of the CMC were included. They knew they were facing severe consequences for their actions. Principals Celestia and Luna let them know, in no uncertain terms, there would at the very least be suspension, followed by a period of in school detentions. That was in addition to whatever punishments their parents enacted. However, Luna was quick to laud them for coming forward and admitting to their wrongs, and for their willingness to work to make amends, where they could, for what they had started. Luna and Celetia promised to join them after they wrapped up for the day. “Recall Ms. Shimmer, I am your ‘ride home’ this evening,” grinned Vice-Principal Luna. “I would be remiss not to join you.” Principal Celestia rolled her eyes, but grinned at her sister none-the-less. “Oh please, sister,” grinned Luna. “You know you intend to join as well! You’ve never been one to pass up the chance to enjoy a well made slice of cake.” Principal Celestia gasped, affecting shock and outrage. “What? How could you say such a thing! The very thought!” She rolled up some papers and lightly struck her sister over the head. “Have at thee knave!” grinned Vice-Principal Luna, rolling up her own stack of papers. She then proceeded to engage her sister in a mock battle of paper swords. As the two went back and forth behind the desk, the princess grinned and shook her head. “I think that’s our cue to exit. Ready Sunset?” asked Twilight, stepping behind Sunset’s chair and placing her hands on the grips. “Last one there buys!” “Let’s do this!” shouted Sunset. Turning to Twilight, she snarked “I think you better go in before me though. They don’t take bits.” “One time… Make a simple mistake one time..” groused the Princess. “One time? Are you sure about that?” teased Sunset. “Okay. Fiiiiine…. Maybe a few times. Maybe I still forget. Hay, I’m good for it. Sort of. Eventually.” Twilight leaned down and whispered into her friend's ear with a grin. “Hey Sunset, can I borrow a few… uhm… whatever their calleds?” They both laughed as Twilight pushed Sunset out the door.
