A Dazzling New Life

by Joshua the Dragonslayer


12. Aaron Shine

Four months. That's how long it took for the police to find Aaron. For months they had been looking for this guy, day and night. Even Tom and his company tried to find him but they couldn't. But finally, after four long months of looking, they found Aaron. Once Sunset got the call from Tom she knew she had to see it for herself. Sunset had nearly forgotten about Aaron until now.

Sunset, Celestia, and the Dazzlings were currently in Celestia's car. They were on their way to Tom's Industry, where they were supposed to talk with Aaron. People from all over were coming to Canterlot to see the Dimension traveler. Aaron had become the center of the news ever since he got into this dimension. The Dazzlings were excited, they wanted to talk with the "dimension traveler." Sunset still wasn't too sure about Aaron. Her gut was telling her that he was bad news but she didn't have any proof. Who knows maybe she was wrong and this Aaron guy was actually very nice.

Celestia, Sunset, and the Dazzlings pull up to Tom Industry. There were a bunch of people there, probably wanting to see Aaron. Good thing for Sunset and them, Tom had given them V.I.P passes so they could pass through the crowd. Once Sunset and the rest of them walked into the building they see Aaron on a stage with Tom and the police. Aaron was in handcuffs, probably so that he couldn't get away so easily. Sunset, Celestia, and the Dazzlings take their seats in the front row. As they sit down the head of the police starts to talk.

"Today we are here with the dimension traveler known as Aaron Shine. He had come into this dimension by coming into the dimension machine Tom and his company made. After months of searching for Aaron, we have found him. Now then I will let Tom tell you all about Aaron." The head police officer said as he sits down, Tom stands up and walk up to the mic.

"Thank you, head officer. Aaron Shine is someone that has traveled through dimensions. Aaron has told both myself and the head office about his past in his other dimension. He means no harm to others, in fact, he wants to help us. The dimension Aaron use to be in was way beyond our generation. With his intellect, we can make this earth a better place. Me and the head of the police plan on letting Aaron stay in our dimension and help us. I will let Aaron talk for himself." Tom said as he stepped down to let Aaron talk.

The head of police grabs Aaron by the arm and takes him to the mic. The head of police and Tom are standing on each of Aaron's sides. Even if Aaron could escape there were security guards outside. Any chances of escaping wouldn't work. Aaron looks at the crowd and starts to talk.

"Hello, my name is Aaron Shine. I do not wish to harm any of you. I want to help your dimension to get better. With my knowledge of my dimension and with Tom and his company's intelligence, we can make this earth a better and safer place. If you do not wish for me to be here I will go back to my dimension with no hesitation. I finish off by telling you this. If you wish for this earth to be safer and stronger let me help you. Thank you for your time." Aaron said as he sat down.

The crowd burst into cheers. The people had spoken, they wanted Aaron Shine to stay. Tom and the head of police look at each other and nod. The head of police pulls out a key and takes the handcuffs off of Aaron's arms. Aaron thanks the head of police and Tom, as Aaron walks back to the mic.

"Thank you. I promise all of you that I will do my best to help this dimension get both safer and stronger. This earth will be great again. You have my word, this dimension as you know won't be the same once we're done with it." Aaron said with a smile.

The crowd continues to cheer for Aaron. As Aaron leaves the stage Sunset looks at him. For a brief second Sunset saw it. Aaron smiled, but not in the I'm happy to smile. The evil smile. Now Sunset knew... this Aaron guy was going to be bad news. But what was he up to?

Celestia, Sunset, and the Dazzlings all get back into the car. Sunset couldn't believe Aaron was in trouble. Now that he was working with Tom all sorts of things could go wrong. The Dazzlings had already fallen asleep in the back of the car. Celestia was happily driving until she saw Sunset have a distressed look on her face.

"What's wrong Sunset? Are you feeling sick?" Celestia asked looking at Sunset.

"No, I'm ok. It's just that... that Aaron guy is bad news. When he was leaving the stage I saw him smile but in like an evil smile. Like whenever the Joker smiles, that kind of smile." Sunset said thinking back to what she saw.

"Well first off I don't think someone can smile that big. Second off, maybe you misinterpreted the smile. Give it some time Sunset if nothing goes wrong after maybe a year or so then we'll know. Everyone deserves a second chance, that includes Aaron. For Aaron, this is his second chance. For all, we know he could have been through a lot back in his dimension. Give him a chance Sunset, and if something goes wrong then we'll let Tom find out." Celestia said as she continued to drive.

It wasn't what Sunset wanted to hear but it was something at least. "Fine, I'll give him a chance. But the second I see something I'm going to Tom." Sunset said.

"Fine by me. I'm just telling you I don't think anything will happen with Aaron being here now. Who knows maybe he really can help make this world a better place." Celestia said.

"He can do whatever he wants with this earth. He's still suspicious of me." Sunset said.

Celestia shrugs her shoulders. Sunset could believe what she wanted to do. If Aaron could really help then they could use it. This dimension needs all the help it can get.

Sunset knew Aaron was up to trouble. He had a plan, and Sunset was sure she knew it. Get everyone's trust then when no one has suspicious about him, he actives his plan. What was his plan? Sunset didn't know that part yet, but she planned on finding out before it happened.

The Dazzlings had no clue what was going to happen in the future. They were clueless, just like everyone else. No one knew what the future was going to hold.

Aaron the dimension traveler is in town. What will happen in the future for Sunset and the Dazzlings? Well, your gonna have to find out.
