This story is a sequel to Best Pegasus


I watched Legend Of Everfree today. I had heard one spoiler for it, which turned out to be completely false. But when I heard that spoiler, this is the scene I imagined. I was sad the film proved it untrue, so I wrote it down. This is the post-credits stinger scene I dreamed of.

Of course, I then remembered the thousand-word minimum limit, so I had to add another scene first, based on my last holiday with friends, which made quite a happy epilogue in itself, to then be followed by the cliffhanger.

Spoiler warnings: I don't think there are any spoilers in here for Legend Of Everfree that you wouldn't be able to guess just from that film's title and summer camp premise. I think I'd have written this story exactly the same even before seeing the film. The only potential spoiler is confirmation by omission - what happens in this story does not happen in the film, so it's a spoiler to be able to rule these events out. Sorry, I wish they had happened, and rendered this unnecessary, but they didn't.

This story and Best Pegasus have no characters or events in common, but both serve as prequels to Haunted Wasteland if you want them to. They don't have to, though, as all three function as standalone stories, and no knowledge of the others is required.

Also, this has nothing whatsoever to do with The Jungle Book, I just liked the pun title. And a big shout out to CGPH - I can't quite 'thank' him for the (false) spoiler, but this story definitely wouldn't exist without it, so it's all good.

All Scootaloo has ever really wanted is a family, and the closest she ever got to it growing up in a foster home was an older girl named Sunset Shimmer who became her big sister. But once Sunset started to go to Canterlot High School, she vanished for a couple of days before coming back, different than the younger girl remembered.

She later finds out that the Sunset that returned wasn't the same Sunset that she had become close to. She tried to ignore it and move on, but the same question kept nagging at her mind.

What happened to her big sister? And what will she do now?

After the Fall Formal, Sunset Shimmer's reign over the school had come to a shattering end.

Everyone at school no longer feared the cruel girl, and some chose to torment her at every opportunity.

Even the Rainbooms, despite the orders given to them by the Princess of Friendship, were reluctant to befriend the former bully.

While delivering her goods one early morning, Applejack encounters Sunset doing her community service. Despite her own anger toward the former Queen Bee, Applejack can't help but notice the complete shift in Sunset's demeanor: her pride and arrogance have been replaced by sorrow and shame.

Driven by her own curiosity, paranoia, her promise to the Princess of Friendship, and a small desire to extend an olive branch, Applejack approaches Sunset during her community service, asking her why she's acting so broken up. Sunset tells her that she went through the most painful thing imaginable: being forced to see oneself with objective clarity.

Will Applejack befriend Sunset, or will her anger toward Sunset overwhelm her compassion?


This fanfic is my own take about how the Elements of Harmony work, and why they managed to change Sunset so quickly. This is partly inspired by Fallowsthorn's Time.

This is the beginning of a series I call Sunset's Steps. I wanted to explore Sunset's redemption a bit, and use the series to see how she got to where she was by Rainbow Rocks.

Here are the rest of the stories, in chronological order.

Note: I'm gonna try my best to avoid 'Sonata in Leather Pants' here.
