All Aboard this Love Boat 03

Looking at the man up and down, Sunset knew in an instant that this Svengallop was a walking problem, maybe not now since he seemed to be another passenger in her new boat, but the inner troublemaker inside of her that hadn’t been purged when she was shot by harmony itself, recognized those that will make chaos around. Since the time she had met the sirens she had understood that she had quite the gift, to know how a person would react or what the person could try to do. It had been refined since then and Sunset was sure she had gained quite the ability; although to be true, it reminded her of the time she had been the bully in charge of Canterlot High.

She may not act in the way of manipulation and suffering, but she understood that certain abilities and skills were really useful to find new magical problems that appeared every single weekend, with no exception it seemed. Maybe it was wrong to hold on to something like that from her days of manipulation and lies, but it was a neccesary evil. She wasn’t proud of the time she spend perfectioning it originally, but using them correctly may be what they needed to survive the rest of their time at Canterlot High,; maybe even beyond the high school and probably into their college days.

Right now, on board of one massive cruise, she knew without a doubt that she will be forced to hit this guy with all her might. She would wait for that moment with patience and relish on the opportunity to beat him. Just looking at the smug face and his well groomed hair, obviously with half a gallon of imported and incredibly expensive hair gel on it. Sunset was sure that if the man was shot with a gun, the bullet will bounce on the hair.

“Mister Svengallop,” god, even his name was pretentious in a way, or maybe he just got her on a bad mood, not that it was hard to do that considering the kind of life she had. If there was one thing Sunset knew very well was her own volatile temper and how easy it was for others to ignite it. Maybe now she was the nice girl of the school, but she knew how to unleash the redhead temper at any time “I can assure you that everything has been prepared for this occasion, you have nothing to worry about,” at least she hoped, because if the crew of the Pacific Queen didn’t do their jobs then she will have to do miracles and she was not very good at making those happen without a magical battle involved in them.

“I’m not worried, after all we can always find another cruise in which to film, the one thing you should worry about is your prestige captain,” he said, turned around and was about to be bitch slapped all the way to Equestria, but Sunset contained herself with patience that had been perfected from being Pinkie’s friend.

“Okay, that man is quite the piece,” it wasn’t what he had said, but the way in which he had said it, as if mocking Sunset and her crew. Sure, this was not her boat and she wasn’t really the captain, but to hear that petulant voice say some something like that just made it easier for her to think of ways to get rid of Svengallop if he didn’t change. The world will thank her for that.

“You said it, but what was he talking about?” The voice of a very curious Twilight took Sunset of her ruminations.

“He is obviously an agent; I swear, there is no way he could be even more stereotypical. He obviously thinks he is a great name when in fact he is only a glorified secretary and I will gladly remind him of that part next time he gets on my nerves.”

“Sunset, everyone gets on your nerves,” the playful smile in Twilight’s face told her everything about the joke. It was bizarre, but just looking at her friend with a smile once more helped her calm down. Maybe the cruise wasn’t such a bad idea, except for the whole job exchanging wave. She still needed to know more about the event, but for now she had a ship to lead and she knew many problems will arrive, that’s how her life was “let’s go Sparky, we still have a ship to check,” was what she said before both friends began their first day in the job. In the back of her head, Sunset was still wondering why the name Coloratura was so important, nah, maybe it was nothing.
