Sunset Shimmer, the terror of Canterlot High, and former protégé of Princess Celestia, and Twilight Sparkle, a recently transferred girl who has won the hearts of the students and reunited five friends. One struggles against her loathing, while the other seeks to help, both have no idea how their lives are about to change, and how much they well come to rely on each other.
A group simply known as the Organization seeks to create an arms race, using a powerful weapon known as the Firestorm Protocols, but when Twilight and Sunset find one of the protocols, can they come together to stop the Organization's plans? Secrets are revealed, allegiances are tested, and the fate of the world hangs in the balance, the Firestorm Crisis has begun...!
Note: This takes place in an Alt. Universe after the events of the Fall Formal and a little before Rainbow Rocks. Pony!Twilight never arrived to EQG world and CHS, but Human!Twilight did.

I've been waiting for a Firestorm story for so long. It's nice to see it finally happened.
You may want to watch out for Run-On senates in the future, there are a ton in this chapter.
5584770 I thought Firestorm needed some love, and Sunset and Twilight felt like the perfect duo for the role.
SunLight? Nice :3
But...I wanted more Lanterns, now I also get Firestorm...eventually?
I've always figured Twilight and Trixie to be opposites, and Twilight and Sunset similar.
5585617 Yes, but we learned that during Rainbow Rocks. Their similarities will become clear to each other soon enough.
5585328 Yes, yes it is
Is this a C&C story?
Bill Nye, the Science Guy.
It's OVER NINE THOUSAAAND!
Good. Though I'm rather confused as to when this happens, Sunset is still a bitch, so before Rainbow Rocks, yet the Princess of the Fall Formal implies she was already rainbow blasted, I'm confused.
Oh great, she's here.
Lightning Dust too, fantastic.
Maybe.
You worry me.
You worry me.
Ladies! Language!
Dalies and Mentlegen, best pony.
That isn't very reassuring.
The Sirens are appearing early. Crap.
I'd like to know too.
Crap.
Awesome job so far!
5586015 Explain C & C and I'll tell you if it is.
5586451 Note the AU tag, this takes place in a world where pony Twilight never went to the human world, but there is a human Twilight in this world that appeared around the time of her scheme to take over the world. And that's all you're getting as far as explanations are concerned.
5587229 Thank you, been wanting to do a Firestorm story for a bit.
5587686 I wonder what else you have in store
Another good dcu/pony merge. Well, Equestria Girls that is. Can't wait to see what happens next. Keep it coming.
5587682 Command and conquer
5588423 Ah, no. This is a crossover featuring DC Comics' superhero, Firestorm. See Bio HERE
My favorite parts of this chapter, I can't wait for the next chapter :D
Also, I liked how Sunset is slowly falling in love for Twilight :3
When they are going to have their intimacy moments? Q_Q
My hypothesis as to why Twilight was able to be so calm, was that she had an idea of what was going on, and was so scared she was calm.
Any chance that there is a picture of this Firestorm somewhere? Would like to see her.
5612704 It's a slowly simmering romance. Get it, "slow simmer", 'cause this is Firestorm and it deals with flames? HA AHA HA!
In all seriousness, it's building up towards it.
5613655 Hmmm, interesting hypothesis, let's see if it holds up.
5614161 Sadly there is no picture, I'd make it myself, and I have a cool cover art design in mind.......BUT I DON'T HAVE MY DAMN TABLET ANYMORE!
5615037
Considering she either hacked the thing or got the code right and seemed to know what she was doing, I suspect that she has at least an idea of what's going on which is why she's not panicking.
Ah.
5647824 Makes sense now, this will be touched upon more further down the road.
This story interests me, you have my attention!
He's a science guy.
...Firestorm is supposed to be two people fused together as one hero. Them both useing the same protocol together was the perfect way for that to happen. Why are they two seperate heroes? This doesn't make sense, your other DC fics follow the comics formulas, so why not here?
5694517 Because this particular Firestorm is somewhat following the New 52 version of Firestorm. In which there are multiple Firestorms and Jason Rusch and Ronny Raymond are two separate Firestorms as seen here:
cdn3-www.craveonline.com/assets/uploads/2011/09/file_175228_0_firestorm1658.jpg
EDIT: HOWEVER, the Firestorm in my "MLDC: Teen Titans" follows the original version of the two becoming one.
5694727 ...God damn you New 52, you had to ruin one of the most origional core concepts for a superhero ever. I don't mind there being evil ones, I really don't. But the fused hero was a really unique and well done idea, and now nope, just regular superheroes.
5696016 How little faith you have in me. Already condemning this without seeing the master plan unfold, keep reading on and you might be surprised.
Way past cool. Still would love a pic.
5696027 I'm not condemning you, I'm shouting to the heavens about DC's New 52, which just keeps getting worse and worse.
ALL my yes.
I love this kid!
First NAme.
My Tsundere sense are tingling.
Ah, so this is before Rainbow Rocks, which explains Sunset's abrasiveness and this is a Twilight that stayed in the human world, but what about Spike? Can he no longer talk?
Firestorm...
Oh this is HUMAN WORLD Twilight, OK, sorry, the fic was just unclear about it.
Awesome!
Fanart. Now.
5697799 Cripes, how did I miss that!
Yeah, I'm purposefully leaving the origins of this Human Twilight vague, as well as the circumstances around Sunset's loathing of her, you'll see further into the fic who she is and other things pertaining to Sunset. And if you're offering or know someone who can, then go ahead. God knows I'm in no position to do so...not by choice mind you. Oh, and this is the song I was listening to while writing that entire transformation sequence.
5696708 Again, so would I.....GOD I HAVE THE PERFECT COVER ART DESIGN IN MY HEAD AND I HAVE NO MEANS TO MAKE IT OR UPLOAD IT!
5696837 Ah, then pardon me.
5698072
Oh trust me, if I could draw both a *BEEP* I WOULD made fanart of this. Sadly, I'm an actor, not an artist.
5698124 Your passion is still appreciated.
5698165
What can I say? I'm a sucker for Sunset. When well written. Ie, ANY other way than herself in EQG, like here, she's a jerk at worst, but she clearly does regret her actions to a degree, but it is gonna take a while for her to come out of her shell and mellow out as much as with Canon Sunset.
Yaaaaay, more chapters :3
by some strange reason, read this fight reminds me Megaman ZX Biometal Models xD
Sunset: Go Twilight finish him off
Twilight: alright here we go FINISHING MOVE

PROTOCOL LOST
5750495 ALL. MY. YES!
5750509 thank you but seriously what twilight did made me automatically think of this especially when they absorbed the protocol into themselves
Looks like it.
Oh dear...
NEERD!
Nice.
Most likely.
Reminds me of Fullmetal Alchemist's alchemic transmutation.
Looks like it.
Oh dear...
Twilight used Force Push! It's Super Effective!
KA-BOOM!
Ah yes, to Kill or not to Kill. This again.
Oh my...
Nice trick to defeat the baddie, ended much better for him than in DC's 52. Also liked seeing the Dazlings more complex relationship.
5752404 Well when they've been around for as long as they have (headcanon being they've been on Earth for a very long time), things like their griping between each other does get on their nerves, but they've been together too long to let it break them up. And plus, a Siren has needs too y'know.
5752179 "Oh my" indeed Mr. Takei.
Whoa wait, did Applejack just be reasonable? No wonder she's my favorite pony.
A unique experience I'd imagine.
Dash! Don't be mean.
Considering her personality, I wouldn't.
Maybe.
Sunset went to Juvie? That's, actually a nice addition, while the school may not have forgiven her, which was fine with the rating of the show, nice to know that here where the rating is, higher, than for MLP, there are more serious consequences.
Maybe.
Rainbow!
Of course not.
Nope.
Right, I gotcha.
ImpressED, not ively. And yep. She's that good.
Yep.
BasIs. I, not e. And yes, she could. Why do you think she was beaten in Canterlot Wedding? She held back so as not to kill anypony, sadly, she held back too much.
CONTINUITY!
AHA! Someone else! I always figured that the Mane 6 were roughly 20, same with Sunset, but were put in a younger body here. I just estimated her to be a bit, you know, older, roughly 15, 16, 17 max.
Aw, and here I suspect Twiley was enjoying the fanservice.
Nice.
That explains it.
Troll. And it's quiET.
This sounds like the beginning of a Cupcakes style grimdark, or a really kinky clopfic. I know this is neither, but, just thought I'd make the joke.
Yep, especially a physical one, a Lesson Zero or Party Of One type meltdown is bad enough, so, a nuclear meltdown, yeah.
Guess not.
Fair enough.
Oh my.
That looks bad.
(Well this was fun, though I am a bit confused as to what Twilight this is, is she pony Twilight, is she an alternate not-Rainbow-Rocks-Stinger-Twilight, seriously, it's been bugging me since chapter one. In the meantime, this is ShadowLDrago, signing off.)
5806721 In RD's defense, she made a few valid points about Sunset. Having a tragic background doesn't automatically make everyone forget about how mean you were and start liking you. As "Rainbow Rocks" showed, people WILL hold a grudge against that kind of thing and you'll have to earn their trust. Plus if you really pay attention to how she was talking, you'd almost think RD was speaking from experience…
5809319
Maybe.
Oh celestia you huge tr-
... Damn I've been double trolled and it was glorious
But seriously this was a really heavy chapter I almost cried at some parts, keep up the excellent work
