Sunset's Little Helper

by Dreagknight-LostWriter


Little Explorer

Sunset woked up the next morning, feeling a little better after her last night scare. Sypher was already up in about, doing what he was taught from yesterday. Sunset was surprised at first, but remembered how easily he caught on to things. Yawning, Sunset got out of the bed and grabbed some changing clothes and went to go take a shower.

With a towel around her neck, Sunset walked in the kitchen where Sypher was sitting down on the table.

“Morning, Sypher?” Sunset greeted the little golem as she walked to the fridge. Sypher only tilted his head at her. Walking back over him, Sunset patted him on the head. “That made my morning a little bit easier for me, thank you.” Again, Sypher only looked at her, but he gave off a sense of joy.

Grabbing a small fruit cup of applesauce from the fridge, Sunset walked over and grabbed the already made toast. Walking into the living room, Sunset picked up her bag and double checked the content. Glad to see all of her stuff was there, Sunset grabbed one of her book from her bag before placing it on her couch and went back to the kitchen table. Sunset watch the little golem as he walked around the table, just looking at everything in sight. Once again, another smile crept on Sunset’s face as she watched him. Placing her book down onto the table, she open it and began to read as she ate her breakfast.

“Sypher, come over here.” Sunset said. With a quick movement, Sypher came over to where she was at and looked at her. “Can you solve this problem?” Sunset asked, pointing to one of her math equation within the book. Sypher looked down, his eyes scanning the book with small, white flashing. After a few seconds, Sypher looked back up at her, blinking owlishly. “I guess not.” Sunset said with a half smile.

Sypher sat down by the book as his eyes continue scanning the page. Sunset figure she might be able to teach him a few simple equation, but that would have to wait until she learns more about him. Finishing with her breakfast, Sunset washed her plate off and put it back in the cabinet. Going back into living room, she grabbed her jacket from the closet and put it on.

Grabbing her bag, she turned to Sypher. “Come on Sypher, let’s go.”

Without another word, Sypher spreads his wings and flew to Sunset’s side. Landing on her left shoulder, the golem grabbed hold of her collar and looked up at her.

“Comfortable? Alright then, let’s go.” Sunset said, slinging her bag over her right shoulder and heading out the door.

Walking into school, Sunset half consciously hid Sypher behind her hair. Not wanting any of the other students to see her having another magical item, she went straight into her locker.

Opening her locker, Sunset looked to Sypher. “Sorry, but your going to have to go in here for now. I wish I can take you with me into class, but that might cause a distraction.” Picking the golem up off her shoulder and placing him in her locker. “Maybe next time, you can explore the school grounds. Maybe, I should talk to Principal Celestia, so you can go roam free by yourself.” Sunset mumble to herself, closing her locker.


Sypher eyes glow white, the last few sentences resonating around in his head. You should go free and explore.

Walking up to the locker door, Sypher placed his hands on the lock mechanism. With a blue magical aura, the lock began to turned. Pushing the door open, Sypher spread his wings and flew out. Turning around, he closed the locker door before gliding to the ground. Now free, Sypher begins his exploration.

Walking around the empty hallway, Sypher spotted a trophy case on the wall. Spreading his wings, he flew up to get a better look. With glowing white eyes, he scan the case. Finding nothing of interest, he flew off into an open room. Landing by the doorway, Sypher walked into a classroom full of students. Walking under all the desks, he scanned everything in sight. Sypher scanned the student’s backpack, their jackets, their desk, and even the students themselves. Finding little of interest once more, Sypher left the out the classroom and headed for the next room. The next classroom he enter has students standing around a table with burning beakers. Before he got the chance to walk in, a small explosion, followed by smoke came from within. As students rushed out the classroom, Sypher turned around and kept on walking to the next room.

Walking into a large open hallway, Sypher took to the sky and started flying around. His eyes scan the school flag, the school uniform and even the billboard, memorizing his location. As Sypher was landing on a desk to charge his flight time, a glass case was placed over him.

“Well, what do we have here?” Sliding a lid under the case, Sypher was picked up and brought into view of a blue hair woman. “It looks like we have another magical item from Sunset Shimmer’s world. Let’s see of what our sister has to say about this.” With that, Sypher was carried off by the mysterious woman.


“Sunset Shimmer, can you tell us what this is?” Principal Celestia asked, presenting Sypher within an enclosed glass case on her desk.

“I found this creature flying around in the halls. Do you know if it’s dangerous or not?” Vice-Principal Luna added.

Sunset stared at Sypher, who was looking around within his confine space. His eyes was glowing a bright white, a tinted green glow surrounding his body.

How did he manage to get out of my locker? Did I accidentally left my locker open before I left. Why was he flying around the school? Sunset question herself as she turn to meet the Principal and Vice-principal gaze.

“Well, I umm….” Sunset placed both her hands between her legs and looked down. “He not dangerous, he's actually... My personal assistant from Equestria.”

Luna and Celestia both look at each other, silently mouthing something to each other. After a few seconds of silent talking between them, they returned their attention back to Sunset.

“And why was he out exploring school’s ground?” Luna question.

“I don’t know how he got out, I put him in my locker and closed it behind me. I think the locker might have been left open or got jammed.”

“You say he your personal assistant. Why would you leave him in your locker then?” Celestia asked.

“I didn’t want him to distract the class or cause any commotion.”

Luna picked up the cased golem and looked to Sunset. “Are you sure this little creature won't cause any harm of the sort?”

“I’m sure. So far, he’s only here to help me, nothing more.”

“And what exactly is it?” Luna asked, placing the golem back down on the desk.

"He is a golem given to me by the princess in Equestria." She mumbled under her breath.

“A golem you say? And he’s here to help you?” Luna queried, looking the golem over. “You promise that he won’t be of trouble or a source of magical problem while here?”

“Yes, I promise, I will take full responsible for his actions.”

With a small sigh, Celestia got up from her desk and walked over to Sunset. Picking up the golem, she handed it to Sunset with a smile. “Maybe this might be one item that I can allow in school. But next time you bring something from your world, please tell one of us beforehand. We don't want something happening, and you're being accused of it because it was from your world. Am I right Miss Shimmer?”

Nodding, Sunset remove the casing that was holding Sypher and picked him up. Staring at him, she only wonder how he manage to get free. Shaking her head, she put him on her shoulder and stood up, turning to the door.

“Oh Sunset, before you go. I would advice you talk to your teachers and let them know about your… assistant.” Celestia advised, sitting back down at her desk.

Smiling sheepishly, Sunset only nodded leaving out the door and heading back to her class.

“Well, it looks like I’ll be introducing you a bit earlier to my friends then expected.” Sunset sigh with a heavy breath. “You’re going to have to show me how you got out of my locker later.” She mumbled under her breath.

For a split moment, Sypher vibrated on her shoulder before laying his head on her neck. As Sunset reached to grab him and see if he was okay, Sypher’s head sprung up and started to looked around. Sunset reeled her hand back from the sudden jump of the golem.

That was a bit.... strange. I hope nothing is wrong with him.
