I do not own MLP:FIM or MLP:EQG. Nor do I own GTA V.
Sunset Shimmer woke up to the sound of birds, cars, and her new alarm clock (which she quickly turned off). She got out of bed, stretching her arms and legs, and glanced at the clock (6:30) before looking at the picture of her and her friends playing in their band, the Rainbooms It had been an entire summer since the Battle of the Bands, and today was September 1st, the first day of the new school year.
Wow, that summer just flew by, Sunset thought to herself. She quickly showered and got dressed. As she was eating her breakfast, Sunset checked her phone. Sure enough, she had gotten a text from each of her five best friends. While Applejack's had informed Sunset that Applebloom wanted to sleep in (That makes two of us:)), Rainbowdash had said "Great, we're back to school. Fucking beautiful!" (Language, RD!). Fluttershy said she was nervous to be going back (Oh, come on, it'll be fine;)), and Rarity had Sunset to wear something "fabulous" to celebrate the occasion (Of course). Pinkie Pie had basically yelled via text "OMG I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU GIRLS!!!" (Didn't we meet up, like, three days ago?). Honestly, though, Sunset was in a good mood. She was excited to see all her friends besides her fellow Rainbooms, even if she did have to endure the classes and homework.
She was so excited, in fact, that she failed to notice the black sedan tailing her all the way to the school.
Sunset walked up to the front of the school, greeting everyone as they walked by. While she was doing this, the principal, Celestia, gave out announcements on the intercom:
Welcome, students, both old and new! Today marks the first day of Canterlot High's 2015-2016 school year. I hope you're as excited as I am! Before we get on with your education, we have an assembly welcoming both the freshman and our new teachers, Mr...
Sunset tuned out the intercom as she passed the the horse shaped statue in the front courtyard. At least, it was a statue to most people, but Sunset knew what it really was: the portal to Equestria, more specifically, the crystal-tree-castle that was the home of Princess Twilight Sparkle.
Not even a year ago, I tried to kill her and take over Equestria. Now, she's my best friend. Whenever Sunset thought about this, she couldn't help but smile.
Speaking of best friends and smiles...
"SUNSET SHIMMER!", came an extremely high-pitched voice
Sunset wheeled around to see her friends waving to her from the steps of the school. With a bit of a run, she quickly closed the gap before being enclosed in a tight group hug.
"Hey there, sugarcube."
"'Sup, Sunset?"
"We totally gotta throw a First Day of School Party!"
"Hello, darling."
"Um, hi..."
"Girls, you're choking me."
After releasing Sunset from the hug, the other girls all started talking at once.
"So ya did get outta bed!"
"Darling, I told you to wear something fabulous!"
"You're right, Sunset, this is going to be great!"
"C'mon Sunny, you act like three days is no time at all!"
"Aw yeah! This year is gonna be awesome!"
"Weren't you complaining about it earlier this morning?" asked Sunset, turning towards Rainbowdash.
"What, you think I was being sarcastic? Also, 'Language'? Really? How old do you think I am, 2?"
"Based on the way you act, yes."
Laughing loudly, the group made their way into the school, happy that they were all together once again.
And all the while, the black sedan remained parked across the street.
Once in the air-conditioned comfort of the main hallway, the girls started talking about the last few days of break.
"So, Sunset, has anything happened since we last saw you?" asked Rarity.
"Yeah, particularly involving a cute guy?"
Everyone laughed at this comment made by the rainbow-haired guitarist.
"What?" questioned RD.
"Um, no, nothing's really happened. How about you, girls? What have you been up to?"
"Nuthin', just working the farm, ya know." replied Applejack.
"I've just been praticing my kicks," said Rainbow.
"I can't spend all my time out of the shop, I have to make more dresses!" exclaimed Rarity.
"Nope, I've been spending time with Maud!" Pinkie said, loudly.
"No..." Was the barely audible word that came out of Fluttershy's mouth.
"Okay..." said Sunset, followed by an awkward silence.
"So, what do we talk about?"
"How 'bout them weird, new teachers?" was AJ's suggestion.
"Weird?" said Sunset as she tried the combination to her locker.
"Yeah, Ah saw 'em earlier, an' 'der was somthin' off about 'em."
"What do you mean 'off', dear?" asked Rarity as Sunset put her books in her locker
"Ah mean 'off', like..."
"Like one was a gangbanger turned assassin one was a retired bank robber with anger issues and one was a psychotic cannibalistic drug dealer a taste for money and blood?" said Pinkie with a single breath.
At this, everyone stopped in their tracks and stared at Pinkie Pie.
"Pinkie, you might be really random, but that was just..." Rainbow looked to the others for help.
"Dark," came Applejack's reply.
"Over the top," said Rarity.
"Terrifying!" squeaked Fluttershy, who was apparently so terrified that she decided to hide behind Rainbow.
After closing her locker, Sunset asked,"Pinkie, why did you even say that?"
The poofy-haired drummer shrugged,"Just a hunch."
Rainbow checked her watch,"Oh, crap! We gotta hurry if we're going to make it for the assembly!"
Without another word, the six girls sprinted to the gym.
