"Hey girl's!" Sunset called from the entrance of the school.
"Hey, ready to go?" Rainbow asked. Well none of the girls were ready, well except for Sunset that is. This afternoon Sunset had invited them to watch her training for motocross. She had gotten very into motocross ever since the friendship games.
"Rainbow I was born ready, plus nothing is gonna happen. I've been training for this moment, nothing is gonna go wrong." Sunset confidently with a smirk on her face. She really did love her friend's but they worried to much.
The girl's all nodded as they headed to the students lot where they each got into their vehicles. Sunset slipped her red helmet on clicking a button and bringing down a sun visor down. She put the key into place and revved the engine her black bike roaring to life. She had the girls behind her leading them to her apartment to pick up her dirt bike.
The wind felt good on her body but she would have to pack her gear before she left. She had only brought her gloves with her. Any other day she would have walked to school but she had promised her friends so she had to bring it.
As she pulled into her parking space as did her friends. Rainbow was the first out of her coming over. She saw Sunset turning off her bike her helmet was sick with a demon on pasted on the sides. She ran up to her as she stood next to her bike with the key in her hand. she looked up at Rainbow and for the first time Rainbow notices the orange visor. "Just saying I your helmet is sick." she said.
Sunset pressed a button on the side of her helmet and the visor flipped up and you could she her large aqua eyes. Then fiddling with the helmet there was a small click and she removed the helmet her hair falling perfectly. "Thanks." she said. As each of the girls got out they made their way towards the pair. Then making their way into the small apartment. Sunset made her way into her room as the girls waited in the kitchen. Grabbing her boots, jacket, gloves, helmet, goggles, and riding pants and shoving them on after putting on her precautionary knee and elbow pads. She had always been safe but she also new that the gear would only do so much if she where to wreak. But nothing would happen it would be fine. before leaving her room. "Ready girl's?" she asked "Do you want some water?" Each of the girls nodded and she got seven water bottles one for each of them putting her's on her pack. Then leaving.
Sunset looked at each of the girls "I may be a minute starting up the bike you guys go get ready." the girls and got into their cars. Sunset struggles with the rip cord for a minute then finally getting the bike to start slipping on her helmet and goggles then making her way at the front of the pack.
Around half an hour later they pulled into a dirt lot. Sunset stopped the girls stopping as well.
"girls your gonna have to park this is a dirt bike only path, sorry but you can make your way to that little hill and see everything." sunset said the girls nodding and parked then made their way over to the hill as Sunset restarted the her bike. then making her way over to the track.
To say that the girls where nervous would be a understatement. Sunset had managed to wiggle her way into all of their hearts and watching this made all their hearts race. only Dash seemed to notice the long stretch of road that went through the entire track. It even went back to the lot next to a large dip. It made her shiver for some reason, remembering the games when Sunset was attacked by those plants but nothing would happen Sunset even said it would be fine.
Sunset looked from the start point and gave them a thumbs up that they returned as the bike roared. She speed off starting the track she'd done this a thousand time's. The first jump was always the hardest as you would barely have enough speed if you pushed the engine right up to it but to much and you could fall and get torn up.
She landed the jump perfectly and speed up more the speed bumps where next slightly easier but still easy to loose control on. The round had gone well so far and the next few parts were easier and she new by heart the downward slope and double jump. She'd lost control many times on these parts but over time they had gotten easier for her to do she almost never slipped up. Well except for that one time it rained and gotten really torn up. She had to call Fluttershy cause she couldn't get home on her own. Fluttershy had insisted on helping her clean up. There was blood everywhere and Fluttershy had basically dragged her into her car cause she wouldn't get in the car in fear of getting blood on her seats. But it was worth it. Shy had helped her clean up to.
Rainbow notices a black truck pull into the lot and race around doing donuts almost flipping the truck multiple times. Sunset would never notice him over the roar of the engine as she came down after a double jump coming into the stretch. The truck stopping momentarily stopping. They looked like they where gonna leave.
Sunset raced down the slope and took a sharp turn. oblivious to the truck in the lot. the next turn would be the last turn until she would go around a second time. As she turned she notices the large black truck racing down the track 'What the fuck? Who is this dude and why is he on the track?' Sunset thought in alarm as she took a tight turn as she felt the impact and getting thrown into the ditch her bike rolling onto her as they came to a stop in the ditch. There was pain coursing through every part of her body.
The girls watched in horror as they saw the truck race onto the track just as Sunset raced into the home stretch finally noticing the truck. She mad a sharp turn as the truck smashed into the bike sending her and the bike flying into the ditch.
The girls stood frozen in place, trying to get their minds to register what they just saw. Pinkie pie stood with her phone still out recording all that just happened.
The gears in Rainbows head where the first to start turning again and she dashed over the black truck. The girls soon following.
The man steps out of his truck as Rainbow approaches, grabbing him by the shirt and lifting him up slamming him into the truck. "What the hell was that can't you fucking read. The sign says no vehicles aloud. You could've just killed her." Dash screamed wanting nothing more than to beat his head in. Applejack seeing this ran up to them and hauled Rainbow of the man "Dash calm down it was an accident." Rainbow struggled to get out of Applejack's hold but it was no use she went limp in her arms and sat crying.
The group made their way over to where Sunset had landed. Fluttershy was first to spot Sunset, she was face down with her bike laying across her back, her gloves where torn and she seemed to be trying to get the bike off with one arm her other arm laying still.
As they got closer Fluttershy heard wheezing. coming from Sunset rushing over Fluttershy bent down placing a hand on Sunsets arm. "Hey it's okay stop moving so much before you hurt yourself worse" Fluttershy said softly. "I can hardly breath. Can you get this bike of me it feels like it's crushing me?" Sunsets weak muffled voice asked through the helmet. Turning to Applejack, Fluttershy says "lift it off gently okay." giving a nod Applejack grabs the bike and lifts with a little strength easily lifting it up of sunsets back causing her to groan in pain before noticing her right leg was bent at a odd angle. Before tossing the bike to the side.
Fluttershy turns to Rarity and asks "can you call an ambulance please" before Sunset grabs her arm "No don't, you can't please don't I'm fine, see." Sunset said trying to get up almost screaming in pain and gripping her shoulder "No you aren't lay back down right now you need to go to the hospital." Fluttershy said firmly but also gently. causing Sunset to lay back down before shifting onto her back. reaching up to remove her goggles with some help on the other side from Fluttershy. "Sure darling i will be right back" Rarity said before going up the hill her phone in her hand.
Rainbow who was standing to the side wanting nothing more then to go up that hill and punch that prick right in the face. But she also wanted to stay there for Sunset's sake, Sunset needed her right now, she needed all of them. Tears were welling up in her eyes she hated seeing Sunset in pain like this. Slowly she made her way over to Sunset after composing herself as much as she could. "That was one narly whip out there Sunny." Rainbow said with a small smirk. "only the best for you guys." she said with a small chuckle wincing slightly.
Rarity made her way back down the hill "I just got off the phone they're sending police and an ambulance to the scene and i think a firetruck to clean up any gas spills." she said when she got down to the group.
Twilight who had been staring at everything with a worried look finally snapped out of her daze as she heard Rarity make her way down the hill. Sunset had a special place in her heart after the games where she nearly killed her multiple times. yet she still had saved her in so many ways. She even helped with the nightmares of midnight sparkle. Twilight new that Sunset had a lot of emotional pain but didn't know how to help her. But this was one of the worst feelings she had ever felt she didn't know if she should cry or if she should be strong but something about seeing sunset so injured made Twilight's heart hurt.
Sunsets eye's where starting to shut and her head was pounding she was so tired, Fluttershy noticed immediately "you have to stay awake Sunset, okay?" Fluttershy said softly, Sunset gave a slight nod wincing even at the tiny movement, opening her eyes more. Rainbow who was standing to the side asked "So, you are gonna charge that guy, right?" "No, it was an accident, plus I don't see the point in it and no one really deserves that." Sunset said making Rainbow annoyed "That bastard could've killed you for fuck sake's he deserves to get charged." Rainbow screamed causing Sunset to wince and attempt to hold her head. "Quite down Dash and it's Sunset's choice if she wants to charge him or not." Fluttershy said before whispering something that only Sunset could hear.
Soon they heard sirens in the distance. It came a minute later and the sirens stopped as a car door slammed. Some footsteps were heard and some mumbling then approaching footsteps. Twilight seemed to recognise the voice as the voices got louder. A pale man soon came into view and it made it's way down the hill. "Hey girls I'm officer Arm- Twi?" The man said when he got down. "Hey shining!" twilight called as she ran to give him a hug. "What in the world happened?" the police officer asked. "The guy up their came onto the track and Sunset got hit." Twilight said. pointing to the girl laying on the ground nodding he moved to her. "Hey Sunset, how ya feelin?" Shining asked "Never been better." Sunset said sarcastically. chuckling shining armour made his way back up the hill to talk to the other guy.
Around 10 minutes later the group heard another siren approaching. This siren was much lower then the police cars sirens and was almost to them by the time they heard it. "Hey baby." The group heard shining say. They then heard a small conversation between the paramedic and the guy who was in the truck. before making their way down to the girls. "hey girls." the paramedic said as she made her way towards the group. "Cadence!" Twilight called when she seen her "Hey kiddo can I talk in a minute? i have someone I need to take care of first." Cadence asked to which Twilight nodded.
"Hey girl how you doing?" Cadence asked as she knelled beside Sunset. "I'm alright." Sunset said. "I'm gonna ask you a few questions to test your memory, okay?" Cadence said Sunset nods "How old are you?" "17" the girls nod their heads "What day is it?" "July 27 2019" Cadence nods "Last one, where are we?" "A dirt track on Derek st." Nodding again Cadence calls out "light can you hurry up with that stretcher and backboard?" causing Sunset to winch and groan. Cadence looks down placing a hand on Sunsets shoulder causing her to gasp in pain. "Sunset I'm sorry. I need you to tell me what hurts." After a minute of thinking Sunset replies with "my lower back, my right shoulder, and wrist, my neck, and my right leg, and my left ankle." "okay, one minute I have to go find my partner." After a few minutes Cadence and another man come down with a backboard, neck brace, along with a medical bag.
"All right Light can you remove the helmet so I can put on the neck brace please?" Light gave a small nod and moved to Sunset's helmet unlatching the clip and gently removing the helmet then replaced with Cadence and she slipped on a neck brace. "Light get the backboard and braces please." Nodding Light got the things then the backboard then helping Cadence guiding him most of the way then putting Sunset on the backboard and bringing her up the hill. Then placing her in the ambulance.
The girls stood watching as the ambulance pulled away sirens blaring. Tears in all of their eyes, Sunny didn't deserve this, she deserved so much she had changed so much and the girls wished they could give her everything she wanted.
Shining Armour approached the group, pen and pad in hand. "Hey girls I need to ask you a couple of questions." the girls all turned to look the officer nodding "okay first of my questions is what happened" "That ass hole can't read a fucking sign and was doing donuts and then ignored the signs and came onto the track and hit Sunset!" Rainbow Dash yelled. Shining didn't even move or flinch only blinking before writing down the details and nodding. "If your details line up with his I will need to know if any of you or Sunset plan to press charges?" He asked with a raised eyebrow. Five head shakes and a "yes" from the group. nodding again he wrote things down.
Rarity glared and rainbow dash before speaking again "One moment dear we need to talk to our friend for a minute then we will be back." Rarity said as she grabbed Rainbow and motioned for the rest of the group to follow. As they approached a secluded area they turned to Rainbow Dash all but Fluttershy sent her glares of their own "What was that Dash we all are angry at them but Sunset said she didn't want to press charges." Applejack said while rubbing her eyes.
Rainbow saw red "God dammit Applejack I though of all of us you would have enough sense to at least see that he should be off the road for Sunsets sake. We've all been hurt in some way with Sunset and Sunset was the most worried ninety percent of the time, and god forbid one of use is hurt due to someone else. Fuck, do you remember when I got pushed down by Gilda when she used to tease me after the formal. Do you remember what Gilda walked away looking like, Sunset couldn't even remember it happening or me having to haul her off of Gilda OR having to be held back so she didn't kill her." Dash yelled.
Applejack just stood there a little surprised by the sudden outburst from dash but also staying quite. Suddenly Dash started to cry. "Don't you remember how I held her back as her nose gushed blood from the few hits Gilda got in and how she got suspended I didn't even thank her at the time! or when she saved Fluttershy the day we left her early and she walked alone. How Shy nearly got kidnapped but Sunset heard them from her apartment and came down and took all four of those guys down!" Dash ranted.
Rarity stepped forward to Rainbow placing a pale hand on her shoulder. "Yes darling we remember that day but don't you remember how Sunset looked after the fight how they had to rush her from school the next day cause she refused to go to the hospital and ended up passing out in the school hallway?" Rarity reminded rainbow nodded in response.
"Or what happened with anon-a-miss." Pinkie said with sadness.
"What happened with anon-a-miss?" Twilight asked
All the girls looked at each other before Dash sighed knowing this would be a whole new tangent. "Anon-a-miss was a account on mystable made by our sisters that framed sunset. they tore down all her work and destroyed her. partly it was our fault as well, we cut ties as soon as a little bit of evidence pointed towards her. You should have seen her, after getting pinned in the hallway and shoved and locked in a locker for two periods she was never the same, she watched her back all the time but she got beat up so many times. Every day she seemed to get new bruises and cuts. The worst part was two days from winter break, Gilda had chosen this time to get her revenge on Sunset. She hacked my phone and told her to meet her by the school where she and a group of people beat the crap out of her, then tied her up threw her in a car and brought her to a old building. They then for the next five days beat her and left her to freeze over night. their is two reasoned she survived it though one was her will and the other is a group of crystal preppers found her unconscious on the 5th night and called an ambulance. They beat part of her skull in with a crowbar and she ended up being in a coma for two weeks. She flat lined twice and had so many broken parts that she had to be in a wheelchair for months then on crutches for a little even now if you look hard enough you can still see a small limp. But the worst part they did to her was branding her, they pinned her to the ground and burnt her cutie mark on her left cheek she still has the scars. but if someone where to ask her she'd say all she remembers was the pain. After that their was another post while she was in a coma that revealed the true people responsible. she for some reason forgave use but she holds everyone at arms length." Rainbow explained
Twilight looked at them in horror tears running down her face she had noticed the scars but chose to never ask. "Is that why she's so jumpy?" Twilight asks.
"Yeah, she's still can have panic attacks when people scare her and only goes out with friends. but she still has so much will and will still stand up for us. she's come leaps and bounds but still has a long ways to go, but we are working with her to get her through it." Fluttershy said in a quite voice.
"I wish I could have helped her like she helped me." Twilight said the girls nodding in agreement.
"We should go and talk to shinning again but nothing at this point is gonna keep me from pressing charges, except maybe Sunset." Dash said.
In the Ambulance Cadence sat trying to calm a panicking Sunset. She and Light had put her into the ambulance and pulled out of the track sirens blaring, but as soon as Sunset realised she was alone in the ambulance she began to freak out. She was remembering the time she spent alone. She tried to lift her arms but even the soft straps made her feel confined. The the straps pinning her to the stretcher made her panic for some reason, she couldn't remember being tied to the poll that the Preppers found her tied to but she never was a fan of being held down and the straps made her panic even more.
"Sunset I need you to calm down okay, I need you to stop moving before you hurt yourself more, Sunset calm down." Cadence said in a calm voice.
Sunsets eyes darted back and forth and she had gone deaf to the world, only hearing her own breathing. She seen those lights the first day she got here. She was in the same position, she had broken her arm after getting hit by a small car. In her defence she hadn't understood the world at the time, It had been terrifying in that room alone but that was the first time she had meet Celestia. She had taken her in for a little while and then had managed to get her a small apartment to herself. Due to the fact that Celestia fostered and Sunset couldn't study and wanted to be more independent. Sunset was back with her for a little when she was in a wheelchair, just long enough to make her place wheelchair accessible.
"Light I need you to pull over or something so I can help her." Cadence called from the back.
Light pulled over and turned of the lights while Cadence trying to undo the straps on the stretcher. She was also the same paramedic who had come to help sunset was in that abandoned building. She had been in real rough shape that night. After undoing the straps Sunset seem to calm slightly.
Light got in the back "Whats wrong with her?" he asked. " She's having a panic attack I thought it was the straps but she barley calmed down when I removed them." Cadence stated in a confused voice.
Light turned around for a minute thinking before a light went of in his head whipping around "When did she start having it?" He asked eyes wide "As soon as we started the drive." She said "She was fine with her friends though right?" He said, Cadence nods "I think she thinks her friends abandoned her, or something maybe?" he said. Only then did it click in her head that was most likely the reason, she had gotten the whole story the day she get home after she had brought Sunset in.
Leaning over Sunset Cadence said "Sunset blink twice if you can hear me." waiting for a minute Sunset did nothing then suddenly blinked twice her breathing still too fast to talk. "Good your friends are going to meet use at the hospital you can see them then. But I need you to to calm down now, okay?"
Something clicked in Sunset head and she began to calm down following a breathing trick Fluttershy had taught her.
The paramedics watched as Sunset slowly calmed down. "Sunset I need to put the straps back on so you don't move around okay." Cadence said "Yeah ,okay." sunset said in a raspy voice. "Are you okay now?" Cadence asked with concern. "No, not really." Sunset said quietly.
As the straps came around her again Sunset made a face like she was in pain.
The sirens started to blare and the lights came back on as the engine roared to life and they pulled of from the side of the road.
---------
At the hospitals the girls and Principle Celestia sat in the small waiting room, waiting anxiously, well all except Rainbow dash who paced the floor quickly while chewing on her nails.
"Why don't you just sit down before you burn a hole in the ground?" Applejack said while watching Dash with an amused expression only for Rainbow to look at her with a glare.
The girls heard two door opening and footsteps approaching "Anyone here for miss Shimmer?" The girls all looked up at the doctor nodding "Miss Shimmer is in room 217 but only 2 people can go in at once right now just so we don't overwhelm her she just got out of her operation, and has only just woke up." All nodded, silently agreeing that Celestia and Rainbow Dash should be first to go in then the rest can go later.
"Darling why don't you go first, okay? Then we can go after." Rarity said while placing a warm hand on Rainbows shoulder.
The doctor nods and says "One of you can head in at a time so its not seven people at once but over time." After listening to the doctor Rainbow took off down the hall to Sunsets room. Multiple doctors telling her to slow down, it was not use nothing was gonna slow her down at this point.
She seen the door and dashed through to see a confused and alert Sunset who's expression then turned to a amused one "Careful Dash or they'll have to put up speed limit signs." she joked as Rainbow turned red.
She looked terrible "What's the damage Sunset?" Rainbow asked with a worried tone.
"Um, I broke my hip and have them in a double cast up to here." pointing to just below her breasts. "So that sucks one goes all the way down my leg cause its broken and the other goes to the knee then I have a short one for my broken ankle, I pulled a muscle in my back and broke 3 ribs which for some reason I couldn't really feel for a little I guess with the rest of the pain it got over powered then I bruised my shoulder and broke my wrist." Sunset said while pointing to each injury.
At some point during the conversation Celestia had walked in watching as Rainbow seemed to get angrier and angrier.
"How long do you think you'll be here for?" Celestia asked "Don't know I wasn't told, but can I come back with you for a little since I won't be able to do much for a while?" Sunset asked "Of course I was expecting it honestly i would most likely would have forced you to come back home with me." Celestia said in a calm voice.
As the night passed the girls all came in talking to Sunset soon the visiting hours came to an end and the girls left leaving Sunset to get some much needed rest.
Celestia was last to leave that night. On the way out she was stopped by Sunsets doctor.
"Ms. Celestia may I have a word with you for a moment." The doctor called from down the hall causing the women to turn to the brown haired doctor.
"Of course doctor, what's the problem?" Celestia said with a concerned voice.
"Follow me to my office and I will explain." The doctor said, Celestia nodded before following him down the hall and into a small white room with a desk and chairs, the doctor going around to sit in the spinning chair and Celestia sitting in the soft chair on the other side.
The Doctor placed is head in his hands and looking a the women in front of her.
"What was it you wanted to talk to me about?" Celestia said to the man.
"I wanted to talk to you about miss Shimmers injuries." He said looking down through the chart in front of him, then back up at Celestia as she nodded. "So as you know she broke her hip so she has both hips in a cast up to just below her breast to stop any bending, with two rods to make sure that she doesn't lean on one side since her hips and legs are too weak to support any weight. Also she has one full leg cast and one cast to her knee. So the one rod goes from the upper leg of the cast and to the knee connecting to the other leg, and another connection from her ankle. She will need help getting in and out of bed showering and anything that requires trying to stand and will need a lot of physical therapy after." He explained while looking up from his chart to look at Celestia's reaction.
"Okay, when do you think she will be released?" Celestia asked.
"I am thinking two to two and a half weeks." He responded whilst still looking at the board as Celestia nodded slowly.
"For the rest of her injuries, she has a broken leg, which is also the same leg with the long cast that will take about 6 to 8 weeks to heal. Next is her other ankle which was broken as well that will take about 6 weeks to heal, that has a short cast on it. Her wrist is broken and has a short cast on it that will take about 8 weeks to heal, along with a bruised shoulder that will heal in a few weeks, a pulled muscle in her back that could take anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks to heal, and 3 broken ribs those will take about 6 weeks to heal." He informed Celestia.
"How will she be getting around in the time it takes to heal?" She asked
"Well it takes about 10 to 12 weeks to heal from a broken hip, so for about a month to 8 weeks she will get around by wheelchair and then she will come back here and we will see how far she has come in her recovery. That will then followed most likely by walker, and then crutches or a cane normally. She would be out of the wheelchair before that, but her ankle and leg needs to heal before that." He said in response.
"Okay is that all I need to know before I go?" Celestia asked earning a nod from the doctor who stood as she stood shaking the women's hand and holding the door for her saying farewell on the way out and watching as she walked down the hall.
______________________ later ______________________
Twilight couldn't sleep she kept on thinking about what Rainbow had said earlier. So she laid awake staring at her ceiling, while Spike lay asleep at the foot of her bed. She looked over at her clock that read 10:36 in bold red letters, than grabbed her phone and texting Applejack, the friend she trusted the most right now.
Twi: Hey, are you up I need to ask you something? Applejack: Hey, what's wrong sugercube? Twi: Can I call you? It would be easier to talk over the phone. Applejack: Sure, go ahead.
After reading her friends message, she went to the phone app and dialed the number before pressing call and placed the phone up to her ear after 3 rings she heard a "Hey, what's the problem sugercube?"
"Hey I can't stop thinking about what Dash was saying earlier and was wondering if you could explain it to me to get some of the facts straight, and if it was as bad as Rainbow was saying or if it was to scare me."
There was a sigh at the other end and she could almost see Applejack rubbing her eyes "Ah knew this was gonna come up again. Ah will say that some of what Dash said wasn't true but a lot of it was true. Anyway do you want the short or long version?
"The long version please," Twilight said while she laid back knowing this would take a while.
"Well it started around November of 2017 our junior year we had all invited sunset over for sleepovers cause she gets lonely that time of year, it started with Pinkie's house. So the night was great until Applebloom called to check in on me and called me an embarrassing nickname and I had to explain it to Sunset. As I told her the story each of the girls falling asleep next to use then the next morning we go to school and someone calls out my nickname then Applebloom runs up to use with her phone and starts telling use about this social media page who had told my nickname over the week it got worse. Pictures of us at another slumber party from Sunsets phone popped up. After that most of us cut ties at that point not wanting to get hurt by her, everyone except Shy left her alone. Over the next week Sunset got attacked in the halls and became so jumpy you didn't really have to do all that much to make her jump or flinch. She got new cuts and bruises almost everyday. you still there?" Applejack asked after about five minutes of talking silent tears falling as she told the painful story.
"Yes I'm still here, continue." Twilight said in a weak cracking voice.
"Okay, so one night Gilda and a group of people decided they were gonna put Sunset in her spot, and jumped her, most had no intentions of keeping going in the whole thing, but Gilda had other plans. When she finally lost consciousness Gilda tied her up and threw her into Hoops truck, it had been warm for winter and almost all the snow had melted, at this point but it was still mighty cold out. They took her to one of the abandoned building on the outskirts of the town. For a couple days they pipped off and had fun torturing poor Sunset. During the day and leaving her during the nights leaving her to freeze. Principle Celestia spent so much time trying to find her thinking she ran away or something that police got involved. They spent four days looking for her while VP Luna ran the school. Anyway on the fourth night she was found by three Crystal Preppers tied to a pole. She was rushed to hospital and had surgery. Then like Dash said she spent eight days in a coma, but the catch is that the coma was medically induced. When her body was physically ready they woke her up, she then spent the next two months in a wheelchair cause they hurt her back, then she had cane for a while she never fully healed from it." Applejack said waiting for a response.
"Did she press charges? How did you guys handle it?" Twilight asked.
"Well Shy was mad at us for dropping her the way we did, but who can blame her really, we stopped calling ourselves the elements after that and she did end up pressing charges on those who got caught. It was really only the ones who fingerprints had gotten scanned cause Sunset couldn't remember anything about what happened to her. It wasn't until the interrogation that things really came to light. They on the last day had taken a pipe to Sunsets head it had given her a major concussion, but they didn't actually beat her head in like Dash had said, but the worst thing they ever did to her was taking a hot iron to her face it was shaped as her cutie mark. She has it covered up but you'll see it in the morning at the hospital, don't say anything about it, it would really hurt her."
"Okay, thank you, you've really set my mind at ease I'll let you go so you can sleep, bye," Twilight said, before hanging up. She then settled into a fitful and restless sleep. Hoping to see Sunset soon.
