Midnight Oil

First things first: spoilers for Equestria Girls!
My first fic, and at first a fairly simple one. The title says "short", but theoretically I intend to make three or four chapters' worth of material, though even then it won't be particularly wordy. Sunset Shimmer gets far too little backstory, and her arc is over with too quickly. This will not do. Here, we will examine just what it was that made her into the villainess she is by the time the movie rolls around. After all, nopony starts out wicked.
Chapter 1 is a vignette styled after those in "The Cutie Mark Chronicles", which begins everything.

I feel as though you could have made this a little better. Only those who went and actually saw the movie (and trust me not everyone has seen it) would understand what is happening in this story. I was kind of excited to see what the fans were going to interpret about Sunset Shimmer, and I have to say this is kind of hard to follow. I even watched it but I feel like if you had done it in a different way, this would be interesting. Try and dumb it down, and introduce each pony in due time. That way you can just write it as a regular story and everyone can understand it. Either way, good try, but this isn't what I was expecting... in a bad way kind of expecting.

Also I went ahead and upvoted because I can.

There's an interesting thought; you have my attention. :twilightsmile:

This is good. I have my own version of Sunset Cutie Mark story that I have written done but since it is part of a chapter of a story that I am still writing I have not posted it yet.

I'm still working on this, by the way, I'm just being kept very busy. Thanks, mostly, for the comments. I'm trying to make the second chapter better, just so you know.
