> Alternative Ending For Friendship Games > by JCPCB > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shortly after the Friendship Games when everyone from both schools received there metals Sci-Twi decided to continue her studies to Crystal Prep, in order for her to get into her independent study program. But before she got back on the bus she was face to face with the girl that saved her life when turning into midnight sparkle. "Well I'm glad that there is one student from Crystal Prep that I have a lot in common with" said Sunset with a grin. "I'm glad that I have a friend from Canterlot High that we have tons in common with", Twilight said happily. Soon after they went into a deep hug, soon after they both decided to exchange numbers and add each other on My Stables. Twilight was happy to know that she has one person from another school that she can rely on for the rest of her life with. After one more hug and a goodbye Twilight got on the bus with her talking dog spike in her lap. She sat in the back with the whole Shadow Bolts Team wanting to talk to her. While she has a chance to wave a smile from the back window of the bus to her new friend who also waved happily to her. Twilight woke up the next day instantly from a nightmare she just had about Midnight Sparkle trying to control her and promising her that she will return and finish the job that she was planning to accomplish. "I'll be back Twilight and this time you can't do anything to stop me this time because I'm coming back stronger then ever!!!. Muahahahahahaha". "No no nooooooooo" Twilight woke up instantly with spike by her side trying to wake his owner up. Just with words and no barking since now he can talk. "Twilight is everything okay. You've been waking up a lot of times throughout the night that I couldn't get back to sleep." Spike said with a yawn. "Oh sorry Spike.... Ever since the end of the Friendship Games I've keep on having these nightmares about....her". Twilight said with fright in her eyes. "Are you going to be okay, For today." Twilight started to get out of bed. To prepare for her new start at Crystal Prep. Ever since the end of the Friendship Games Twilight thought that everyone might have changed for the better. She also thought that maybe the students might give her a chance of being her friend. That got Twilight a bit worried to possibly think that they might have change but she could rely on one friend that will help her the most in this situation. After Breakfast and a bus ride to her school Twilight entered the main building while seeing a few students in the hallway. Trying her best to be polite to them, she only got a few serious faces in return while she nervously walks down the hallway to her locker. Once she got to her locker she overheard a comment that was said down the hallway. "Oh now we got a monster with us!!!. First dealing with the smartest girl in school and now shes a monster what will we do now." Said a Crystal prep student with frustration. "And she believes that we all will be friends with her. Ha!!! she completely mistaken, we only pretended that so she won't hurt us. Hahaha!!!". The student said as she and her friend walk down the hall and round about the corner. Twilight just stood there by her locker still open with tears in her eyes. Just trying to hold in her hurt heart and try to not show no one else how weak she really is. After a few seconds has passed, there was a announcement throughout the speaker. That was announced by Principal Cinch herself. "May the following students come to my office immediately. Sugar Coat!!!, Sunny Flare!!!, Lemon Zest!!!, Sour Sweet!!!, Indigo Zap!!! and Twilight Sparkle!!!!!". Said Principal Cinch Angerly. Twilight felt the chills went down her body once she heard principal Cinch anger voice threw the loud speaker. She couldn't move where she was standing, at one point she lost her balance and fell back to snap her out of her traumatized moment. Once she was back on her feet she slowly walked her way to the principals office. Once she made it to the front door, she stood there in shocked, she was trembling in fear but then remembered of what Cadance has taught her to breath in and out. Once she took that stepped she knocked at the door, hearing Cadance on the other side. "Come in." Twilight then opened the door only to be greeted by her brother Shining Armor, Dene Cadance, Principal Cinch and the 5 Shadow Bolts that made there way into the final 6. Twilight was terrified when everyone that treated her badly all in one place except for her brother and Cadance. Once the door was closed behind her Principal Cinch then asked for both Cadance and Shining Armor to leave the office so that Principal Cinch could be alone with her students. Once they both left the office the 6 students soon slowly moved there heads to face the only spare light that supported the room that was the one that was facing her desk. Once the room was quite enough, Principal CInch placed her pencils down and then folded her hands. "Now time to get to the main topic of what I call you all for." Principal Cinch said with a straight face that soon got serious when time went by. " All of you are here by loosing all your achievements you have earned throughout your time Here AT Crystal Prep!!!." Principal Cinch said with a screaming tone in her voice. Which made all 6 students in the office Gasp in hate and shocked. "For making our school loose its meaning in winning now we downgraded a lot even in the schools paper say that were a bad influence which cause all the students parents make them want to transfer out of Crystal Prep". This news ragged the Principal so much that her temper raised to the max. The 5 shadow bolts soon turned there head in rage to Twilight Sparkle who just stood there in shock while her body froze in place. Indigo was first to approach her. "Well well well!!!. The nerd finally got what she deserves huh". Indigo said with a ragging tone, as she startles Twilight in sight. Twilight just backed up a bit as the 5 of them approach her to the corner of the office. Twilight couldn't do anything in the corner while the 5 shadow bolts and Principal slowly walked toward her.Twilight feels a bit light headed that she suddenly passed out in the corner of the office while they all continue blaming her for everything that Twilight has done to them. Even with the apology that she wants to give to them. Those apology would not work with the hatred that they all have inside. > Chapter 1 The Unexpected News > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunset was chillin in the music room were she and her best friends go to for band practice. She was there alone at the time since they were planning to meet up after school for a rehearsal. Even after the Battle Of The Bands and the Friendship Games were over. Sunset and the girls still say that they really do enjoy playing together since together they can accomplish everything. But there was still a feeling that Sunset was still having ever since she met the human world Twilight. She hasn't message Sunset or even called her for anything that made Sunset worried a bit. She thought that she must have failed on the Friendship Lessons she was having ever since the princess gave her a second chance to do things right. Her train of thought was stopped by the music room door opening. While the humane 5 enter the room, they all noticed Sunsets face was with worried. Once they placed they instruments and bags on the floor they walked up to Sunset trying to wonder what's wrong with her. "Emmm.. is everything alright Sugar Cube, because you aren't looking like yourself right now. Is everything okay". Applejack said with a worried tone. "Yeah everything is fine AJ I'm just worried". "Worried about what exactly....". "About.......her". Sunset said with a worried tone in her voice. Everyone just starred at each other until one of them decided to speak first. "Is it about Twilight... well this world world twilight to be exact." FlutterShy said with a low tone in her voice. Sunset look up at all of them with a face of worried. Until she breath in and out, once she was better she explained. "Yeah I'm worried about her, its already been a week since the Friendship Games ended and I haven't recieve a text or a phone call from her. Ever after we were totally fine with each other. I feel like I failed Friendship once again". Sunset said with a sad tone in her voice. Once everyone got the message they all gathered around Sunset for a nice big hug. Sunset felt relief that at least her best friends cared about her now since throughout her journey she really wanted to change. "Don't worry darling its nothing to be worried about. She just needs to get adjusted to have friends, because remember she was always alone throughout Crystal Prep so everything must be new to her". Rarity said in a soft tone. "Yeah she's right you can't push her to fast to do something that she is not ready for yet. Take yourself as an example you spend over 2 months to prove to everyone that your not a bully no more and look at you now Sunset everyone in this school and your past are forgiving you as we speak. Its good progress once you think about it". Rainbow said with words of courage. That actually lifted Sunset Spirit up a bit. She's right she just has to give Twilight some time to adjust to the situation that she's in. "Your right girls. Thanks for helping me feel a bit better, your all the best". While smiling brightly. "Your Welcome". Everyone says with a big thumbs up. "Now Lets Get Ready To Rock!!!". Rainbow said with pumps on energy inside her. While everyone got there instrument and got ready in there positions. Sunset still has her mind in making sure that Twilight is okay, so after practice she going to go do some research on where is Crystal Prep at to check on her friend. It was 8:40pm in the night and Sunset was just finishing up with her dinner. She cleaned her plate, her living room and her kitchen table all before she went upstairs to her bedroom while taking her laptop up with her. Since tomorrow is Saturday, Sunset will have all night to do her research of where is Crystal prep located. "Alrighty then I got my laptop here, some notes and a pencil sharpen and ready for writing. My mug of coffee is on the nightstand and no one is here to interrupt me." Sunset said with a courage face expression. "Lets Do This!!!". A few minutes has been passed Sunset did her best to find the address of the school she was searching for which is Crystal Prep. After she got the address written and was happy about it. Sunset was about to call it a night, to her surprise that it only lasted a few minutes, soon she starring at the tab when she came across a link titled. Breaking News Crystal Prep Ranked Lower. To Sunset it wasn't that big of a surprise since Principal Cinch forced her students to win and slowly but hardly forced Twilight to win the game for them. To Sunset suspicious she decided to click on the link to just rub it in to those Crystal Preppers for them to force Twilight to Unleash the Magic, even if there reputation was at stake. What Sunset wasn't expecting was a news article right under the picture of Crystal Prep that stated. "Crystal Prep has been permeantly close down due to the fact Principal Cinch Force all her students to compete for the sake of the school!!!. Even if it meant destroying or even injuring them throughout the process". Sunset was shocked to see everything that the news article was saying she wasn't expecting it to go down like this. She thought that after the Friendship Games everything will be better for Twilight even after she feels that everyone was reformed for a good purpose. When Sunset continue to read she was shocked when she got to the part of the article that talked about a accident that occurred on that day. "Student from Crystal Prep was found in the corner of the principal office on the floor. With no feel in the pulse and was immediately took to the Canterlot Hospital. While Principal Cinch was taken by force by security to Canterlot prison for the safety of the student. From this point on Crystal Prep will be closed Forever sorry for all the students who attended this school. We hope for all students to be safe and sound". By the end of that dialogue Sunset was in panic she never wanted this to happen. She kept on scrolling down until she saw the section of who was the student that was taken to the hospital to her surprise. They gave a brief description of the student. Glasses, Purple Skin, Dark Blue, Pink and Purple Line Hair and her hair is tied to as a bun. Sunset instantly notice of who those description was referring to. She instantly grabbed her phone and hit call on Twilights Number. But no answer came how ever just a voicemail. "You Have reach Twilight Sparkle I'll return your call as soon as possible basically since only family calls hehehe..." Beep. Sunset started to worry even more. It wasn't until a few seconds later that she receive a phone call. "Hello!!!" Sunset says with a high tone. "Hello this is Twilights Father who is this. Is this one of those Crystal Prep Student that accused my daughter. If you are THEN GET LOST !!!". Sunset took a deep breath in and let it all out, by the anger voice on the other side of the phone. "No sure this is Sunset Shimmer a very close friend of your daughter Twilight Sparkle. We met during the Friendship Games since I am a student from Canterlot High". Sunset said with a deep courage voice. It was a few seconds before the person on the other side of the phone decided to speak. "Oh my apologies miss. I'm just looking out for my daughter, from those students from Crystal Prep students they accuse my daughter for everything that happen to the school. and that's why I want to protect her from now on". "Don't worry sir I'm no Crystal Prep student". "Good and what would be the reason for this unexpected call at 9:40 in the night". "Well sir I was calling for to wonder how Twilight was doing I just finished reading the article. Of what happen to her old school, and was worried as well since I haven't gotten a called from her ever since the Friendship Games". With a calm and desperate voice. "Is she okay". Yeah she okay she's just been in a comma for only 5 hours to our surprise. But ever since that recovery she hasn't been out of the house ever since then". "oh". Sunset said with a calm worried tone in her voice. Until she got got the courage to say. "Is there by any chance for me to come over for a visit to see how she's doing". Sunset said with a worry, lower tone in her voice. It wasn't until the voice on the side came back into the speaker. "I'll see about that give me a few minutes, I'll go see if my daughter would like that". The voice on the other side voice got lowered when he walked away from the phone. To Sunset suspense she hopes that Twilight would accept her for a visit. Its been like 3 minutes until the voice from the other side came into tone. "She would gladly, accept you for a visit Sunset but are you sure your not a Crystal Prep student". "I swear to my word that I'm a Canterlot High Student". Sunset said with a straight tone in her voice. "Good to know Sunset I'll see you tomorrow in the afternoon. I'll send you the address later tonight". By that moment Sunset was glad to have an address of where to find Twilight. "I hope this all goes well tomorrow". > Chapter 2 The Unexpected Reunion > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- On the other side of town, on a rainy night there was a student who was in her room for the entire day. Since she doesn't feel like seeing anyone at the moment, due to the fact that her entire life was ruin or even destroyed by one school event that she was forced to compete in. By the end, she was the one that was blamed for. Even though she was forced to do it from the start. Not even the principal would support the blame since at the end of all the principal was sent to jail, the school is temporary closed and all of the students have no were to go and they all agreed on who to blame for at the end. But the poor girl couldn't stop crying as her heart beats in pain, inside of her as she keeps on remembering everything that has happen throughout the process of trying to have a new start at her school but at the end it didn't work at all. "Feeling sorry for yourself aye" Twilight instantly got up from her pillow and looked around when she heard a familiar voice talking to her. "Who's there" Twilight said in a low voice tone since it was late at night to be screaming. "Don't you remember me" said the oddly strange voice. "I can't believe you were that anxious to make a whole school start over from scratch since you discover friendship. Hahahaha". "I thought I can make a difference with the school but, it all went down so fast that my brain overthought itself and got me to pass out instantly" Twilight said with a low tone in her voice. "Obviously that won't make a difference because the only thing that matters to them is for them to improve and win to make there schools reputation go up so more students can join" Twilight just sat there on her bed while the voice inside of her keeps on making a conversation with her. After a few minutes of back and forth discussion. Twilight alarm clock, instantly woke her up from her dream/reality she was having. After shutting the alarm off and putting on her glasses from her night stand, Twilight got up and instantly went to her mirror as she looked at herself. "Todays another day" Twilight said with a depressed look on her face. "But what am I gonna do today anyways". Sunset woke up bright and early on a Saturday morning with the sun shinning through her window, she felt energize. "Uhhhh I should really lower the curtain down at some point in my life to not let that sun bother me every morning". Sunset got up and was getting ready for her day to meet Twilight after a while since there last encounter was during the Friendship Games. Which Sunset felt kind of uncomfortable with all the magic and mayhem that has happen during the event since Crystal Prep wants to become the victors of the games. But today will be different, no mayhem and no drama will stop them from getting to know each other properly. Sunset was about to put on her jacket when suddenly she got an unexpected call from a unknown number. "Uhhh... Hello". "Hello is this Sunset Shimmer". said the unknown person. "Yeah this is Sunset Shimmer... Uhh who is this again". "This is NightLight Sparkle. Twilights Father". "Oh.. Hello Mr.Sparkle its nice to hear you again". "Yeah thanks, anyways are you still coming over. I just want to have confirmation about if your coming or not". "Yeah I was just about to head there right now. Is she doing alright". "Yeah she's trying to have fun in her lab. To have a bit of a distraction on her. But she still trying to hang in there". After hearing that Sunset really wanted to help Twilight in anyway she can but how. Then an idea hit her. "Excuse me Mr.Sparkle is Twilight interested in any kind of book". "Well actually she is, she's really into everything about Science. Also she's into Daring Do series, but sadly she didn't get the recent volume of the book". Nightlight said in a lower tone. "Oh wait a sec I might help you with that one. I'll be there in about 15 minutes". Sunset was about to run out of the door until. "Uh would you mind sending me the address to your house". Sunset said awkwardly. "Alright I'll tell you where we live". "Uhhh.....I can't get this to work. I tried every format, every equation, but none of them seems to work". Twilight laid her head in defeat, acknowledging that her knowledge of science has blocked her yet again. "Don't worry Twilight you'll get it at some point". "But I've on this problem for over a weeks spike, it hasn't gotten me nowhere by this point". Twilight said with a crazy expression in her voice. "I calculated the angles, the trajectory, even the amount of pressure that has to be solve in this problem". "You need to relax a bit Twilight you've been at it since you woke up this morning". Twilight accepted of what her dog said. She cleaned up her lab and gather her notebook and went directly upstairs from the garage. Once she was in her room she laid down in bed and close her eyes while trying to relax a bit. Twilight was taking a short nap when a sudden voice distracted her. "Hello....Twilight you there". There was a knock at the door with an unexpected voice. Twilight got up slowly and slowly walked her way to her door. Once she opened the door she was greeted by a girl with long red and yellow hair, a long sleeves jacket, with a light blue dress and a light pal skin. "Hello...." Sunset waved her hand slowly." Long time no see aye". In an unexpected moment Twilight hugged Sunset tightly not wanting to let go. On the other hand for Sunset she wasn't expecting this to happen but she allowed it to continue on like this till Twilight felt better. "Don't worry Twilight I'm here" > Chapter 3 Bonding > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The moment suddenly stop throughout the day when Twilight embraced Sunset. After so long of them being apart Twilight definitely needed this, even after everything she's been through of being an outcast, being punish and being accused for not making the right choice. She hated all of that, but what she didn't realize was that there was one friend that will fill that void, that has been tormenting her for this past few days. When Sunset slowly carried Twilight to her bed. Sunset did her best to try to comfort her when all her tears finally dried out. "Hey are you okay". (sniff) "yeah I'm feeling a bit better now". Sunset passed her a tissue from the little tissue bag that she has stored in her pockets. "Now can you tell me what's been bothering you lately". Sunset said with a smile on her face. Twilight wants to tell her everything that's been tormenting her till now, but something in her heart was still in pain that it doesn't want to say it anymore. Sunset got the message from Twilights eyes that she doesn't want to say it right now, but luckily Sunset already knows about it. "Is it about your school now isn't it" Twilight just sat on Sunset sides in shocked. "Don't worry I saw this all online so it wasn't a guess or an invasion of privacy heh heh". After Sunset explained everything to Twilight. Twilight was happy to know to know that Sunset didn't put the blame on her. "Overall I thought they had change but it looks like they only did that to get on good terms with us then". Sunset said with rage in her voice. "Yeah I thought so to but at the end they all pay the price. I don't even want to know or bump into them now, that's also the reason why I haven't left the house". Twilight said with a low tone in her voice. Sunset was about to say something in response to that but decided against it. She got rid of her serious voice, and put on her bright voice. "Hey how about we go do something today, to get the joy inside of you rocking". Sunset said while handing her hand to Twilight. Twilight giggled to Sunsets request "Sure lets go do something, I've been meaning to get out of my room for a while". "That's the spirit". They both left the room, While Sunset was trying to lift Twilights spirit. Twilight led Sunset to the backyard of the house. After Sunset officially met Twilights parents, Sunset got there approval of being friends with there daughter, and they invited her to have dinner with them which Sunset wanted to decline but Ms. Velvet insist, which Sunset automatically has to agree. Twilight took out her telescope that she has stored away in her closet. Which Sunset helped her out by carrying it outside. "What's with the telescope Twi". Sunset said with a concern look in her face. "It's for star gazing tonight". Twilight said with a cheerful smile. "Star gazing hmm I feel like I never done one of it in a while. Wait but aren't star gazing done without the telescope". "Yeah, but we can find more constellations if we look deep into the sky". Twilight set up her Meade ETX90 Observer Telescope into place After a while both Sunset and Twilight were just sitting on the plain green grass starring at the sky. "Hey Sunset". "Yeah Twilight". "I just wanted to say Thank You Sunset. Thank you for being with me today and for helping me feel better when I needed most". Twilight said blushing. "No problem Twilight, I'm always here to help, plus I've been worried about you since the Friendship Games". Sunset said with a depressed tone. "I wanted to know if you were doing okay with going back to CPA but when I never got a respond or a call back from you I was worried. But that didn't stop me, which at the end it led me here". Twilight just sat there stunned by everything that Sunset has said to her. "I never knew, you really want to check up on me". Twilight said blushing. Twilight didn't know how to respond to that at the time but luckily found the perfect answer. Twilight leaned into Sunset arms and Sunset once again wasn't prepared for it, but she continued on embracing Twilight warm body against her. There moment was interrupted when Sunset pointed to the sky to get Twilights attention. "Hey look the stars are out". Sunset pointed at the sky. "Oh yeah" "Hey look I see Cassiopeia, Hercules, Cygnus and Leo". "Wait really how can you find them so fast". "As I said Twi, It's been a while I've done star gazing at night". "But you already found some of the most popular constellation in one look. How is that possible". "I don't know probably luck I guess haha". After a few minutes of looking up at constellations, Ms. Velvet called them up for dinner. Twilight insist that they leave the telescope outside since they will return later to continue star gazing. Sunset just accepted and they both went inside. Dinner went smoothly for Twilights Family and Sunset. During dinner the Sparkles were getting to know Sunset a bit more about herself, and Sunset answered everything to her fullest. When dinner was done, Twilight and Sunset excused themselves to go back to the backyard to continue stargazing. Nightlight allowed her but only for a few minutes. Sunset and Twilight took there lead outside and continue star gazing. Sunset still surprises Twilight about finding constellations faster then Twilight could ever find. After a few minutes been passed it was time for Sunset to head home "Thanks for hanging out with me today Sunset". Twilight said happily. "No problem Twi". As Sunset was getting on her motorcycle she faced Twilight. "Hey I was wondering if you want to hangout tomorrow with my friends at the mall". Twilight was surprised of being invited by her friend. But sadly she has to declined. "I would love to but...". Twilight looked down with worried in her eyes. "I'm just not ready to see other people right now, I just want to take it nice and slowly. Hope you understand". Sunset looked a bit disappointed but fully understood Twilight situation. She's been through a lot and the one thing that Sunset doesn't want to do is to push her friends boundaries a little bit to far. "I understand... but by any chance you wanna hang out tomorrow..... Just the both of us no one else. If you want". "Oh..... uh sure. But just the both of us no one else alright". From that point Sunset stood up and did the pinkie promise routine. "Cross My Heart Hope To Fly Stick A Cupcake In My Eye. Ow". Sunset rubbed her eyes from the pain that she gave herself when doing the promise routine. Twilight Giggled "What was that for ". "It's a special pinkie promise that should never be broken. Once the routine is done I can't break it". Twilight giggled and then embrace Sunset with a hug. After a few minutes, Sunset said her goodbyes when she zipped down the road. Leaving Twilight looking down the road before turning in for the night. Sunset and Twilight hanged out a lot during the weekend. Most of it, at Twilights house which Sunset was fine with it. They mostly hung out in Twilights room and backyard to not be seen by the others. Most of the time Sunset would have to ask the others of why she's not hanging out with them for a while. Which at the end they all understood, except for Pinkie Pie she is so eager to be friended with the human Twilight. Which Sunset had to stop her from making any attempts. To not make Twilight, nervous. At the end of classes Sunset got on her bike to go meet Twilight. As she accelerated down the road. Once she got to Twilights house she was greeted by her family, which accepted her after helping there daughter out a lot and really brighting out her day. When Sunset was heading up to Twilights room she notice the sound of sobbing coming from the her friends room. Sunset quickly sprinted to Twilights room and went to comfort her friend in a hug. "Sunset.... " (sniff) "There, there Twilight". While Sunset was comforting Twilight in her embrace she finally made Twilight relax a bit. "Now can you tell me what happen. Was it those Crystal Preper's, Did They Do Something To You!!!". Sunset said with anger in her voice. "No its not them..... It's this". Twilight showed Sunset on her laptop that Crystal Prep is allowing students to return to reclaim there belongings, before the school officially close down. Which made Twilight sob even more. Sunset understood why Twilight was acting this way. Being threated badly by the others, humiliated and bullying, even going to far to just insult her badly Sunset doesn't want Twilight to suffer threw that anymore. "All my stuff is in there even in the lab. All of my work. Is going to be gone when everyone shows up tomorrow to reclaim there Items. I don't want them to destroy my life's work. What Do I Do !!!". Sunset doesn't want Twilight to suffer anymore so she officially decided that. "Why don't I help reclaim your stuff from Crystal Prep”. Twilight was shocked by what Sunset said. “No I can’t let you what happen if you get caught for breaking into a school. You’ll get into a lot of trouble for it”. Twilight said with a worry tone in her voice. “I wouldn't want you to suffer anymore Twilight. Please just let me do this, at least for you”. Sunset said in a deep tone passionate voice. Twilight was tearing up that she embraced Sunset stronger and tighter this time. "Just be careful okay". “I’ll promise that everything will be alright”. > Chapter 4 Retrieving > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After Sunset hanged out with Twilight for the evening. She decided to head home early to be all set for tomorrow. "Sorry that I gotta leave so soon, got a big day tomorrow. hehe". Sunset said nervously while putting on her helmet. Twilight was standing beside her, with her hands behind her back. "Just promise me that you'll get home safely". "Promise". As Sunset set her helmet in place before starting her Motorcycle, with the engine roaring. "Sunset...". Sunset turned her head around to give while the engine was roaring in the background. "Just promise me that you'll be careful. When heading to Crystal Prep". Twilight said in her nervous voice tone. Sunset took a deep breath in and then let it out "I promise, trust me Twi it will be all fine". "Are you sure ?" "Yes plus I debt with far way worst problems than this one". Sunset said with a confident grin on her face. "Alrighty then". Twilight approaches Sunset to give her a nice big hug. "I'll see you tomorrow, Good Night Twi". "Good Night Sunset". As Sunset dashed through the streets, Twilight just stood there waving goodbye to her friend as she went inside. Meanwhile in the streets of Canterlot. Sunset was zooming through the streets until something occurred to her. "I wouldn't get in trouble if I pay Crystal Prep a little visit". Sunset said with a grin on her face. Sunset stopped her bike on the side of the road and took out her phone. To place the location of the school on the map. That she will soon be visiting. Once the location was set. Sunset started her engine and zoomed the streets, at the speed of light. Once Sunset made it to Crystal Prep. She slowed down her bike to not make a big scene for everyone around her. To not let anyone know that she's there. Sunset was examining the school from a close distanced. Observing everything she sees. The school was duck tapped everywhere from the entrance to the windows, even the front gate was locked shut, and from Sunset's perspective, the gates were too high to go over. Even from around the school the walls were too steep to climb over. Once Sunset found a place to park her bike, she started to think of a strategy on how to break-in. Once her idea struck, she immediately went through her book bag and took out a lock pic. "Well Pinkie Pie did say keep it in case of emergencies. So let's see if it really works". Sunset made her way to the entrance of the school before she heard footsteps from the other side of the school building. As fast as she thought she jumps into a nearby bush and hid in secret. With little vision she has by the leaves blocking her view she could see a flashlight flickering around the school. Which Sunset could tell it might be a security guard and what's so happen it turned out to be an actual security guard just doing its job. While Sunset was waiting patiently for the security to make its rounds, around the school, Sunset got out of her hiding spot and then felt something metal that crash into her foot. "OW!!!!". But as low as she screams of it the pain was by far the worst she has gotten. Even after countless battles with Mythical Creatures, this is by far the worst feeling she has ever felt ever. As she turned her head around to see what has clashed with her. She noticed a wagon just placed there inside the bush she was hiding at. "Oh, that will come in Handy". Once the coast was clear she tried picking the lock, to her surprise it actually worked. "Wow, I'm gonna take you everywhere I go now". Sunset said happily as she placed the lock pic in her pockets. Once the front gate was unlocked Sunset walked quietly to the main entrance to not make any sudden noise that will get her caught in the act. To her surprised the front door was open, Sunset surprised it would be because of the security guard who probably forgot to lock the door. As Sunset was wandering the hallways, she got one question that she has to get the answer to. "Why Are The Lights On!!!!!!". She screams at the lowest rate ever. "I mean seriously why is every single light ON. Does the school even care about energy since there's only 1 person here". As much she was upset about this, she has to control herself before something goes wrong. "I should add "Petition on a new rule to save energy is definitely going on my list". Sunset put that as a reminder before she continued down the hall. "Well time to start unlocking doors and see what surprises await me". With as little information that Twilight has provided for Sunset. This will take a while since it's a new school for Sunset and the layout will be complicated to navigate through. On the outside of the building, the security guard was making his last round, around the building to make sure the perimeters were clear. After a quick scan around the building, it was almost time for his shift to end. "Well, time to grab my stuff and go". The Security Guard said as he went walking towards the building. Meanwhile, Sunset was busy unlocking doors by doors, by doors, by doors, until she got tired since she was dragging this wagon with her. "I should probably think about this before I continue". "Hmmmm.... Twilight did say that her lab was in the janitor's closet. So let's start with this one". Before Sunset started to unlock the door another time she just remembered that she has the key to Twilights lab in her pocket. "Oh" Sunset was a bit embarrassed that she didn't do this sooner. Just before she was about to unlock the door she heard footsteps, coming from the distance and now Sunset is in panic, She hurried up unlocking the door and to her surprise, it actually worked. She rushed inside the room, with the wagon and closed the door gently so as not to cause a sound to the person that walking through the halls. After a few minutes has passed the sounds were getting lower and lower by the second. After a few seconds, Sunset let go of her breath and now she can breathe calmly. After a few minutes of Heavy Breathing Sunset officially opened her eyes, as she examines the room that she went inside. All over the walls are lab experiments, data charts, even the radioactive table. Even to sunsets surprise a dartboard all pointing to the Camterlot High Wondercolt Statue. All events from the Battle Of The Bands, to the Fall Formal which Sunset still has pain in her heart whenever she remembers how she used to be. To her surprise, it was basically everything that she has done with the girls these past 2 years all recorded on her dartboard. “Alright now, how do I fit all of this on the wagon”. After a while of thinking of a possibility that this plan can work out 100% in her head. But there was one problem she has well actually 2 or 3 in the matter. “Well, it looks like I have to make a return trip in order to get everything that Twilight needs. Which means EVERYTHING !!!” After a short breath break, she got to focus “Alright let’s do this” To Sunsets surprise everything fit perfectly in her wagon. The papers stack on one side all books on the other and all that’s left was the Investigation Board. Which Sunset assumes was Twilights biggest experiment that she has ever accomplished in her time here at Crystal Prep and Sunset doesn’t want to ruin it. “Well, it looks like Imma make a return trip because this board won’t make the trip back, all that pleasant”. After a quick observation of the hallway to her surprise, the security guard is nowhere in sight. This gave Sunset the opportunity to make a run for the exit. With the number of noises, she's making she just hopes that no one is here. After a moment of sprinting, she made it outside to the sidewalk where her bike was parked. After connecting the wagon to her bike. She rushed out of there waisting no time right now. When she got to her apartment she placed all the items that belonged to Twilight on her kitchen table, since it was a better place to put them than on the floor. After Sunset emptied out her bag and got a harness out of her closet for the dartboard that she's bringing. She rushed back to her motorcycle and speed down the road back to crystal prep. "I can't believe this is going to work". Once she made it back to Crystal Prep, she noticed that the doors were officially closed now and no one in sight. But luckily for her, she still has her lockpick, after a while of picking the locks she managed to get in. While sprinting to Twilights lab, Sunset noticed a locker that got dented a lot. "Wow that locker got jacked up" After a while, Sunset looked back at the locker and noticed a picture of a familiar dog she has seen before. It didn't take long before Sunset sprinted to the locker. "What have they done to your locker". Sunset said as she slowly tried to open the locker. All of Twilights' belongings were destroyed and her locker was completely dented, which looks like the door could probably fall at any moment. To Sunset's surprise, it didn't take long for it to do it but now Twilights locker is fully exposed to everyone that passes by luckily Sunset was alone. "I better get this stuff out of here before everyone shows up tomorrow". Sunset said as she hurried to grab everything and organized it well in her bookbag. Once Sunset was about to head to the lab she noticed that Twilights locker had a secret compartment near the back. Once she slid it open, she was greeted by a locked notebook. To Sunset's thoughts, she was glad that she didn't forget about it. Once she double and tripled checked the whole locker to see if anything was left out. She finally made her way to the lab. Once the Investigation Board was out of the door, Sunset carefully took it through the hallways. Her walking was interrupted by the sound of a door swinging open and shutting it hard. As the sounds of footsteps draw near and a beam of light was spreading throughout the hallway. "Is anyone here?" said the strange voice coming from the distance. "Well, it's time to see what I can do in a situation like this". As Sunset peeked to the corner of the hallway to see if the coast was clear and once it was she sprinted down the hallway as fast as she can until she heard footsteps coming from behind her. "Hey stop right there". Sunset didn't pay any attention until she made it to the exit. With all her might to swing both doors open as she sprinted to her bike with the guard sprinting on her tail. With the engine roaring and all gears are set Sunset drifted down the highway leaving the guard furious that he couldn't keep up with the suspect. Once Sunset got home she emptied her bag and place the big board right behind her couch since it seems like the perfect place to placed it. "Wow, I can't believe I got everything in one go and survived a small speed chase with a Security Guard. Who didn't really put up a good chase? ". Once everything was all set and done it was time to hit the hay but not before sending a quick text to her friend. "I got a surprise for you". The Next Day all of Crystal Prep Students were heading to campus to retrieve their belongings. Everyone got to their lockers and grab their stuff and quickly head out with a sad and furious face expression. "I can't believe we have to return here". "I was going to have a career here since I was the captain of the sports team here". said Indigo as she slammed her locker and walked up to meet with her friends. "We all had our future set, but thanks to that nerd of a student I just say her name, ruined everything". said Sour Sweet as she took all her anger out by a nearby locker. All 5 of them agreed until Sugar Coat got something on her mind. "Hey since everyone came here to grab their belongings, shouldn't Twilight be here as well". Everyone stood there starring at Sugar Coat for a quick second until Sour Sweet took hold of Sugar Coat's shoulder. "Let's get back at her for everything she's done to us and make her pay badly". Everyone agreed to that and started to approach Twilights locker. Once they reached the locker they noticed that it looked like it got mugged already even surprised the door was on the floor. Sour Sweet looked inside the locker but nothing was there it was completely emptied. Sugar Coat, Lemon Zest, and Sunny Flare each looked down each side of the hallways but Twilight wasn't in sight. This made them all furious everyone except for Indigo who just shrugged with her back to the wall. "Why arent you searching for her". Screamed Sour Sweet as her face turned seriously red. "Because you all aren't looking for at the main source". Everyone looked at Indigo with a confused look on all their faces."Uhhhh the laboratory in the Janitors closet". Indigo said as she led them to the lab. Once they reached their destination Indigo made them all step back before she starts banging the door. "Open Up Twilight we know you in there". After a few seconds of waiting Sour Sweet couldn't wait anymore and took all her anger on the door. To everyone's surprised the door broke and fell to the floor and instantly Sour Sweet ran inside and starts grabbing and throwing everything to the wall and to the floor. Everyone got a hold of Sour Sweet to stop her from continuing, only to help her realize that everything in the lab was gone. "Where is everything !!!!!!!". Sour Sweet Yelled out of anger. "Wait how is this possible she couldn't have gotten here and left that quick she could barely carry everything she had without tripping". Indigo said as she searches through the room for anything that could be useful for them but sadly there's nothing. This left everyone with anger in their eyes but mostly it left Sour Sweet with irritation in her face. Class went by well for Sunset all of her classes went on without a hitch, she couldn't wait to see Twilight after school as she promised. Once the school day was over Sunset rushed over to her bike and rushed home with no time to waste. Once she got home she immediately got refreshed and then changed back into newer and cleaner closed before heading to Twilights house. Sunset decided it would be best to take her car instead of her bike since Twilight does have a lot of stuff and her bike wouldn't make it feel comfortable. Especially with the board that will hurt her neck. Once Sunset was all set she grabbed the items that she placed in boxes and placed them into her trunk. But the board will be placed behind Sunset in the passenger seat. Once Sunset made it to the Sparkles Residence she immediately went ring the bell. Only to be introduced by Cadence. "Hey Sunset". "Hey Cadance nice to meet you here". "Likewise". Cadance said with a curious look. "what brings you here". "I actually came here to see Twilight is she around". "Yes actually she in the garage working on a project that she couldn't complete at the moment. Why don't you come in and I'll go get her". "Wait!!!". Sunset said in a low tone of her voice. "Don't call her yet until you help me with her surprise". After Sunset explained to Cadance what has she done last night Cadance was a bit ashamed of Sunset for breaking school rules but completely understood the reason why she did that. "No no no nooo!!!". Twilight screamed as she slammed her notepad onto a nearby table as she slumped on her chair while starring at the ceiling. "There's no point in continuing I would rather accept the fact that it's impossible to solve this formula. I can't even continue my project without answering this because if I tend to be wrong then the whole experiment will take a wrong turn and I will have to start from square one". Twilight was wondering what would her life be like if she hasn't returned to Crystal Prep would everything have gone different or have stayed the same, with the only difference is that she won't be in it. She wondered about it for a few minutes before beginning to cry as she laid her head down on the table. "Don't worry Twi everything will be alright". Twilight instantly turned around only to be met by Sunset's eyes and to her surprised Sunset was wearing one of her spared lab coats. Which Twilight found out that Sunset actually looked beautiful in. Once Twilight got her mind checked out, she was beaming to a waving golden yellow hand. "Hello, earth to Twilight are you there". As Sunset waved her hand to get Twilights attention. "Oh uhh sorry for losing focus for just a sec".said a worried Twilight. "That's alright I actually came here to see what were you doing, and also here to help you with this problem that you're having trouble with". As Sunset grab the chalk and the notepad as she started answering the problem in an instant. Which surprised Twilight as well. "Alright, since that is done, let's get started with the next part. For now on Imma be your assistant". Said Sunset as she reached her arm out to Twilight. With a smile on her face, Twilight took Sunset's hand and was happy to have an assistant that can match her sharp thinking skills. "Alright Lab Partner". As Twilight lifted her arm up, Sunset knew what she wanted. "Yes Lab Partner". The two high five and then started to get to work. After a few hours has passed Sunset and Twilight have finally finished the project it turned out Twilight was aiming for an Electric Motor Generator. "I can't believe the answer was that obvious". Twilight said in surprised right after the experiment went as a success. "How did you know. Just after glancing at it for the first time". Sunset shrugged as a response. "Back at my old school before I went to Canterlot High, this was basically the first level of learning we took, and since it looks similar to the ones beforehand. I kind of found the answer in an instant". Sunset said as she placed the clipboard by a nearby table. "How is that even possible, what school did you attend ?". Twilight said with a shocked look on her face. "Let's just say it's in Canterlot City. That's where I used to live before I moved here to PonyVille". Sunset said in a peaceful matter, even though she couldn't tell Twilight the truth about her existence from another dimension, that could cause a lot of explaining to do about alternative dimensions existing and Twilight wouldn't take it all that well. After a few minutes of absolute silence, Twilight was the first to speak. "Wow, wait what grade did you learn this at ?". "Well like around 6th grade I think". At that moment Twilight was lost for words. "How is that even possible that's highly impossible for such a young age". "Well at my old school nothing was impossible". After Twilight got everything process of she was just told. She just leaned in close to Sunsets face seeing if she wasn't bluffing about it. After a few minutes of straight faces to one another. It finally convinced Twilight that Sunset wasn't lying. "Well I believe you, but on a side note now since we're done with my project what would you like to do now". Said Twilight as she organized her papers from a nearby desk. "Well actually I wanna show you something first," Sunset said as she removed her lab coat and hanged it up by a nearby coat rack. "Oh yeah, I've seen you messaged me this morning". At that Twilight froze. "Wait how did it go". Twilight ran to grab Sunset by the shoulder. "Did everything go okay, did they treat you wrong, you didn't get hurt right ?". Twilight said as she holds on to Sunset's arm tightly. Sunset just responded with a grin. "Don't worry Twi I did promise you that everything will be alright didn't I". Sunset said as she embraces Twilight into a hug. "But I do have a surprise for you but promise me to not peek". "I promise" Twilight said happily. Sunset guided Twilight up the stars while still covering her eyes. Once they reached the door Sunset opened it leading them both inside. "Ready.....3...2...1". As Sunset uncovered Twilights eyes. Twilight was struck with tears of joy, everything that she owned was all well organized and none of them seems to be destroyed everything except for some notebooks placed on her bed. Twilight went to check up on them and to her surprise, it was all of the work that she has accomplished throughout her time at Crystal Prep. Sunset approaches from behind embracing Twilight with open arms. Twilight turned around and to Sunsets surprised was tackle down on Twilights' bed. Sunset can see Twilight's eyes watering more and more as time past. As Sunset was preparing to embrace Twilight for a hug, she was interrupted by a kiss on her lips that put in too much pressure for even Sunset to let go and separate. But Sunset didn't mind. She just wants to treasure this moment with Twilight by her side or specifically on top of her. > Chapter 5 (Good Times) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Time passed by in seconds, minutes, or even hours Sunset didn't want to let go of Twilights soft lips against hers. As time went by without a train of thought they were both interrupted by a knock on the door. "Twilight is everything okay in there". Velvet called from the other side of the door. "Yes, mom we're good" Twilight said nervously as she tried to act like nothing is going on. As she went to open the door. Twilight Velvet entered the room she saw how all of Twilight's things were all over her room and to her surprised. Sunset was laying on Twilight's bed while starring at the ceiling. "So I see the surprise went well as expected aye". As she looked at Twilight and Sunset. Twilight blushed for a second before raising her voice. "No, no mom it's.... not what you think".Twilight said with nerves in her voice. Velvet starred at her daughter before accepting her statement. "Alright, Alright I'll leave it be". As Velvet made her way out the door. "Sunset would you like to stay for dinner". Sunset laid on Twilights bed and turned her head in response "Sure". With that Velvet returned downstairs and Twilight went and shut the door. As she took in her breath and let it out. She turned and faced Sunset who was still laying down on her bed. "I'm sorry, sorry, sorry!!". Twilight said as she bends her head down in Sunsets' direction. "It's okay Twilight there's nothing to worry about". As she placed herself upward and brought Twilight to the side of the bed. She cleared her voice and spoke. "But it is, I....I took action before even thinking about the consequences". Twilight hugged herself tightly as she let out her tears. That's when Sunset brought her in for an embrace which led to even more confusion on Twilights mind. "Twilight can I be honest with you"? Sunset said as she took a hold of Twilights. Twilight stared at her eyes and nodded in agreement. "Ever since we first met at the friendship games. I wasn't at my best when we first encountered, and after that day I felt like I should do more than to show you that I'm a good person". As she clenched her hands a bit to not hurt Twilight in the process as tears slowly began dropping from her eyes. "Everything's okay Sunset really, you did what was right at the time before I really went overboard with my device. Even though it hurt a lot even more than what I'm used to I still forgave you in the end".Twilight said as she tightened her hands with hers. "But still I wasn't as good as a friend from the start and I really wanted to show you that I'm not like your other school of Crystal Preppers". "But you aren't throughout the time I met you till this day you showed me more than I can ask for". As she faced Sunset straight into the eye. A moment paused for them as they both admire each other and closed their distance till their lips met each other. As they enjoy each others company till the day ended. "Hey, Twi are you ready". Sunset called from the entrance door of Twilights home. Twilight came running down the stairs with her purse and sweater since it was supposed to chilly outside today." I'm here, now let's go". As she locked her door. It took a lot of convincing but sooner or later Twilight accepted that it was time to hang out outside of her safe zone. But the only request she asked is to not leave her alone for a second. Which Sunset promised with a salute. "I'm having second thoughts". As Twilight shivers and leans against Sunset's shoulder and she tightens her arms around her partner now lover as they walked down the streets. "Everything will be fine, Twilight I promise that I'm not gonna leave you alone for a second". As she took a hold of Twilights shoulder." Plus now your more special to me now than I can ever imagine".As she took Twilight closer for a quick kiss to calm her nerves down. Twilight felt a bit calmer now than she was before."Thank You". With permission from her parents, Sunset has convinced them that it was okay to take Twilight outside, but for as long as she takes care of her. Sunset has sworn on her life to protect Twilight. They both made it to the park with some locals walking around and letting their kids play with each other on the open grass. Twilight kept her hoodie on to not drawn any attention and Sunset took hold of Twilight's hand the whole way there. Sunset found a nice shade tree with a trunk big enough for the both of them to lay back on. Twilight was on alert when she looked around and slowly made her way where Sunset was heading. After a few minutes went by Sunset turned her head around to spot anyone that could be resembled as a Crystal Prep student but to her surprise, there was none in sight. "Hey, Twi everything's okay there's no one in sight". As she gave the signal to her lover. Twilight looked around for a final check to be 100% sure. After a few minutes of scanning the park, she felt relieved that she decided to take off the hoodie. "Phew that was a relief but I still think it's not okay to be out yet, I'm still terrified for just turning a corner now". As she tilted her head downward with her eyes closed. "Hey, I know this will be difficult for you but believe me that when I say this that everything will be okay". As Sunset made Twilight face her again." I'm here to help you Twi not as a friend but as your Girl Friend, I don't want you to be scared anymore and live happily like how you normally are that's why I'm here to help you Twi". As she hugged her partner at the moment. Twilights eyes were watering to everything that Sunset said. "Your right I shouldn't worry myself too much". As she kept her embrace with Sunset a bit longer." As long as I'm with you I'll be okay". As she leaned beside her lover. Twilight and Sunset spent the whole day together without a minute to lose. Sunset showed Twilight all the good spots that she normally goes to with her friends, but since it was just the both of them it would be a perfect opportunity to show Twilight around and see if she will have more interest than science. First, was the mall, Sunset and Twilight went into some stores that caught their interest. For Sunset it was a mixed clothing store filled with mixed combinations such as Punk, Casual, Artsy, Trendy, and more. Which at first Twilight didn't like it first, but Sunset begged her to give it at least a try before she makes her final decision. After a few minutes has passed Twilight came out with a bag full of new clothes combinations which Sunset helped her by picking out. It was a normal School uniform shirt with a bowtie in the center and Pink Shorts that will fit the combination. While Sunset got a cross X bone skull head shirt and a new leather jacket since to her perspective it matches her deeply. "See I told you'll like it". As she gave a pat to Twilight. "Well, I wasn't expecting to actually enjoy it after a few minutes in". As she grinned happily while looking at her bag." Thanks again for helping me choose this set for me it really matches me perfectly". Sunset blushed when receiving the compliment, she shrugged and said "No problem Twi...anyways would you like to go to the next location then". "Sure," Twilight said happily. After Twilight agreed, Sunset grabbed her by the hand "Alright let's go". As they both walked out of the mall and into Sunset's SUV as they went to their next location. They made it to Sugar Cube corner for a quick sweet treat stop. To boost up their energy for their next destination, Twilight order a Vanilla Sundae with Sprinkles and a cherry on top. While Sunset got a chocolate ice cream with 2 red velvet cupcakes for the both of them. After their treat and energy built up into them, they made it to the carnival. Sunset promised her that she will never let go of Twilight. As long as they both have fun. Throughout the distance, they didn't know that they were being followed by a group of 5 individuals on the other side of the parking lot. "You sure we should do this". As they tried to organize themselves in the van. "Yes we are doing this, She ruined our lives and just has the urge to go and have fun like nothing the problem". As she stared at them menacingly. "She's going to pay for what she's done even if it's the last thing I do". "But how are we gonna get rid of that girl that's with her 24/7". "Don't worry I got that covered". As she starred at the couple with a big devious grin on her face. After Sunset paid their entrance fee. Sunset took Twilight's hand and brought her inside with a smile on both of their face. Twilight was a bit nervous when entering the crowd because she wonders if one of them noticed her and might try a way to get rid of her once in for all. "Everything is gonna be fine Twilight, everything will be fine, you got Sunset with you". As she tried to breathe in thought. Sunset brought her to a side hug that calm all her nerves. Sunset grin happily to let her partner know that everything will be okay. They first went to play some boardwalk games. They went past by a few games that didn't get their interest instantly since most of the games were for the young and some have no good prizes to be offered, not until Twilight stop to take a look at a stuffed toy that got her interest. Sunset soon joined her to examine why she stop. "Everything okay Twi". "Yeah everything okay, I'm just looking at how adorable that stuffed animal is". As she pointed up for Sunset to see. It was a big round green feather Parakeet with an orange beak in front. "It's surprising how easy is to turn a real-life animal into a cute lovable plush toy". As she admired the toy plush from a far distance. An idea pops into Sunset's head as she took Twilight by the hand to the game. "I would like to go to take around plz". As she placed a $5 bill on the stand. "Wait Sunset I...". Sunset placed her finger on Twilights lips. "Relax Twi, my job as your girlfriend and protector is to make sure that you're happy". As she lowered her finger and turned to face the game that shes about to play. "Twilight smiled at her brightly."Alrighty then". "Alright your objective is to Burst the ballons, you are given 5 pointy darts so be careful".As she explained how the game works."The more ballon you hit the bigger the prize you'll get". "How many ballons do I need to hit to get the Parakeet". As she pointed to where the plush was placed. "That would be 5 ballons madam". Twilight was shocked when she heard the objection from behind. She wants to comfort Sunset on the news but then saw a grin on her face. Sunset wasn't scared or shocked, she was excited because in her mind it seems like a good challenge that she getting and she wants to prove herself. Sunset grabbed her darts and carefully aimed, but first made sure that Twilight wasn't too close to her to not hurt her in the process. Once the coast was clear she swung her arm forward and burst the balloon. A good first throw but Sunset doesn't want to jink herself. Next the second ballon burst, then the third and the fourth. Sunset's heart was pounding so much which caused Twilight to worried for her partner's sake. Once She took in a deep breath she swung her arms only to be upset to see that no balloon burst after the impact to the wall. Sunset placed her head down on the front table as she admits defeat. Twilight came by to comfort her. "It's alright Sunset at least you tried your best". Their interaction was interrupted by a loud burst that came by in front of the Sunset and Twilight looked forward to only noticed that the balloon that was right next to Sunset's dart just burst. "Congratulation Sunset as everyone applauds for her from around. Sunset's depressed feelings suddenly vanished and she celebrated by hugging her girlfriend around. Sunset instantly asked for the parakeet which was given to her carefully and once she took a hold of it she gave it to her lover. Twilight took a hold of it and was smiling brightly as she hugged it deeply. "Thanks, Sunset". As she embraced it will all her strength. "Told you it would make you happy".As she took in another embrace to Twilight. Sunset and Twilight happily spent their time together at the Carnival. They went on rides, played more games which they both were tied in points ranking. They even went on the Ferris Wheel together as they placed the parakeet on their laps as they both embraced each other throughout the night. Sunset took Twilight by the hand as they went back to the car with all the small prizes they have won. They love them all but Twilight mostly adores the Parakeet that Sunset has won for her. As they got inside the vehicle Twilight faced Sunset. “Thank you Sunset so much for everything you have done for me today”. As she smiles brightly while holding her parakeet. Sunset smiled back “anything for you babe”. As she took a hold of Twilights hand. “Alright time to go,” said the mysterious person from the other side. As Sunset started the engine of her car a mysterious man in black cloth approach right in front of them and didn't move an inch. Sunset honk to make him move but he didn't do so, about 30 seconds have passed he didn't move which got Sunset furious. Sunset was about to get out of the car before Twilight grabbed her by the arm. "Be Careful". "Don't worry I'll be fine". As she held her hand on top of her lover. Sunset approaches the person as calmly as ever. "Excuse me sir will you plz step aside so I can go through". No response "Alright you asked for it" Her actions were caught off by a tackle upfront that slammed her to the ground. Twilight was worried, that she got out of the car to help her friend but was also grabbed from the back by 4 other people wearing black cloth. Sunset saw as the others grabbed Twilight as she tried to release herself from this grip that this person was giving to her. "Sunset!!!!!".Twilight screamed as she tried to free herself until one of them pull out a washcloth and placed it on Twilight's mouth causing her to pass out. Something inside Sunset got triggered as her temper and personality changed instantly. "What have you done to her". Once she slammed her attacker to the side of the car she starred at the others with red eyes from the far distance. The other 4 noticed who there up against it was no other than Sunset Shimmer. As the clouds formed they were starting to get chills. "You 2 take her to the van and you get Indigo to safety. I'll deal with her". As she got face to face with Sunset Shimmer. "Who are you".Sunset said with her ragging voice. "hehe, Long Time No See Sunset". As she removed her hoodie to reveal her face. "You!!!!". As she gritted her teeth. "Yeah, it's me, matter of fact is us.". As everyone else removed their hoodie to reveal themselves. "Why are you doing this". "Why, I'll tell you why". As she approaches Sunset furiously."It's because of your friend who was our ex novice, who gets everything and made us all feel lame". "But now until now, I hold in my temper on her for quite some time, but now its time to release it and take out my anger on her, for pulling the final straw on us". Sour Sweet said as she went a bit crazy. "But it wasn't Twilights fault that this occurred. In a matter of fact is all of you to blame". "Us oh no no no. It's Not US!!!". As Sour Sweet went and tackle Sunset down. "She's going to pay for everything she has done and you're not going to stop me". "That's what you think". As Sunset fliped Sour Sweet around making her lay on the concrete floor as she smacks in some sense into Sour Sweet's face to make her open up but nothing. Then all of sudden Sunset heard the engine roaring and heading the streets. Sunset faced back to her victim. "I'll deal with you later". She got up and hurried back into her car leaving Indigo in the dust. "You already later," Said Sour Sweet until she passed out. Shortly after the rest of the Shadow Bolts made it to Crystal Prep where the door was open and brought Twilight downstairs to the basement. They tied her up in the middle of the room. "Huh huh". Twilight woke up only to noticed that Sunset wasn't with her. "Hello Sunset you there!!!". As she screamed out her name, but no response came, however. "eh uh..... Is anyone out there hello!!!". Twilight called out but no one responded. Not until 4 figures came out of the shadow to confront her. "Who are you". Said Twilight. It wasn't until one of them slap her in the face after she finished talking to them. "Ouch!!... What was that for". "Well for everything you have done to us you deserve something way worst than that". Said SugarCoat. "Yeah, thanks to you I lost my Athletic Degree for my Future!!!". Said Indigo as she approaches the seat that Twilight was sitting as she wobbled it back and forth. "Huh. Wait how is all of this my fault". Twilight said as she tried to hide the pain they have given her. "Just because we didn't win the Friendship Games, because of you". Sugar Coat said casually. "Yeah, we were an unstoppable school not until you joined us and we didn't get the official W". Said Indigo as she tried to hold in her anger. "But that's all gonna change, now time to make you suffer even more than we already have". "What.. are you gonna do to me". As Twilight tried to get herself free. "Let's just say as payback from your friend for hurting me". Indigo brought back the parakeet in her arms. "No..No don't you dare damage him". As Twilight eyes started to pour down. "Don't damage my gift from Sunset don't!!!". Indigo stared at Twilight with an evil grin on her face. "Ahh so this is special to you, huh, Lemon Zest bring the knife". Lemon Zest did as instructed and brought back a Pocket knife that's 6 inches long. "Haha, I'm gonna enjoy your suffer". Once the knife was in place she sliced the parakeet plush down in half and then into small pieces that spilled all the fluff that's inside. Twilight couldn't help but scream until Sugar Coat and Lemon Zest hold her back. Twilight used all her force to break free but it couldn't. It didn't take long until the plushy was completely destroyed. "Why, why you did this". Twilight felt so hurt inside that she started to cry it was one special gift that her Girlfriend Sunset gave her and now it's ruined. Twilight cried as hard as she can until a waterfall of tears dripped from her face. "Aww, don't worry you'll soon feel a thing until this is over". As Indigo approached her with the knife in her hand. "Sunset where are you". As tears dripped down making her glasses wet. Sunset was drifting as fast as she can until she reached the location, where the van was parked. "Don't worry Twilight I'm going to save you”. Sunset stopped the car only to be seen in front of Crystal Prep. “Dam, you Crystal Preppers when are you going to let this go”. As Sunset grabbed her keys and ran inside to check. Once she was inside she slowly took her steps to not cause any attention. As she listens for any sounds that can help her find Twilight. Sunset has been walking for over a few minutes until a sound of a person screaming caught her attention. “Twilight!!!”. Sunset sprinted down the hall only to encounter an open door that led to the downstairs basement. “Twilight are you down there”. Her voice was interrupted by Sunny Flare and Sugar Coat who pinned her down by force. “Hey what’s going on here”. Said Sunset as she struggles to break free. “Just be quiet the show is about to start”. Sunset looked up to see Indigo standing right neck to Twilight. With the blade touching her neck. “Glad to see you here Sunset, It looks like your small tussle with Sour Sweet sure was quick”. Said Indigo as she continues to tease Twilight a lot. “Sunset....Help”. Twilight said in a low and frightful tone. Sunset struggle as hard as she can to break free but Sunny Flare and Sugar Coat held onto their grip. “Don’t you dare hurt her”. Sunset said with a furious tone in her voice. Indigo laughed in a delicious tone.” I’ve already done so”. Indigo raised her voice and showed Sunset the marks on Twilights back they were turning into scares. Sunset's voice raised high and screamed. “HOW DARE YOU!!!”. “Awe someone sure does care about her a lot, I wonder what would happen if I finished the job”. Indigo said as she faced Twilight. Lemon Zest on the side turned her MP3 player volume up a bit with dramatic music playing in the background. Twilight closed her eyes as she passed out. “Sunset........” “No No No!!!”.” I made a promise to her and I won’t break my promise!!!”. At that point, Sunset began to glow brighter which cause the basement room to light up. “What, what is that”. Indigo said as she covered her eyes from the brightness. And with the amount of brightness that was spread caused both Sour Sweet and Sugar Coat to let go of Sunset as she levitated up. Sunset continued to levitate up until a moment past that she sprouted Flaming Wings, with a transferring Flaming mask to cover her field of vision, and now came a new form of Sunset a form that she did not expect to transform into. “Wow, this is new”.Sunset said as she admired herself. “Not again”. Said Sugar Coat as she stared up and started to make a run for it but Sunset instantly closed the door with her magic. As Sunset took in a deep breath she extended both of her arms.” it’s time to make all of you pay to what you have done”. As she blasted all 4 members of the ShadowBolts that caused them to be tied up in a ring of light. “Hey let us go!!!”. Yelled Indigo. Sunset thought for a second.” How about No!!!”. As Sunset grabbed all 4 of them and placed them into 1 big circle. Then took them to the top of Crystal Prep and left them on the roof. “You’ll be staying here for a while, as Sunset flew back down to return to Twilight. “What The Fuck!!!”. Yelled Indigo Zap as they were all left on top of the School. Sunset rushed back downstairs to where Twilight was been. She untied the ropes and caught her before she fell down. “Twilight speak to me”. Sunset said as she took a grip on Twilights hand. No response came however and that cause Sunset to start to panic. “No no she can’t be gone plz she can’t”. Tear we’re starting to drip out of Sunset's eyes and onto Twilight's face. Sunset embraces Twilight as hard as she can.” I’m...I’m sorry Twilight..I’m really sorry”. Sunset soon saw the Parakeet destroyed and was left on the floor with all the fluff spread all over the basement floor. She continued on holding Twilight until her fingers began to glow bright yellow. A lot of yellow particles started to flow all over Twilight’s body and then she began to glow. In the process, Sunset was worried too what would happen to Twilight. Then all of a sudden Twilight’s wounds vanished and her marks as well. After the process was done. Sunset look at Twilight again everything was perfectly cured. “Twilight are you there plz answer me”. Sunset screamed to let Twilight know that she was there but no response got Sunset to tear up again. A moment later Sunset heard breathing and it was Twilight. She slowly opened her eyes to see a glowing figure right next to her. “Sunset is... is that you”.Twilight said as she adjusted her vision. “Yes, Sparky is me”. Twilight blushed by the mention of her first nickname.” uh Sparky oh my”. Twilight couldn’t find the words to show how happy she was. “Yes Twilight that’s your special nickname that I gladly gave to you”. Sunset said happily as she faced Twilight. Twilight blush before thanking her. After a while Twilight soon noticed that Sunset has 2 flaming wings. “So that’s new”. She pointed at the 2 flaming wings behind Sunsets back. “Oh yeah there cool right”. As she deactivated her transformation and returned back to normal. “Um Twilight....I’m sorry for breaking my promise to you. I should have been more careful”.As Sunset bend her head down as she admit defeat. Twilight only gave her the silent treat meant before clearing her throat and said. “It’s alright Sunset there’s no need to worry”. As Twilight took in Sunsets hands with her.”You did everything you could in order to save me and that means a lot to me than anything I could think of or have experience in my life”. “But still I broke my promise to you. I deserve the blame”. “But at the end you didn’t break any promises, plus look at you. You transformed into another form of DayDream in order to save me”. Twilight embraced Sunset in a hug. Sunset accepted it and continued the embrace.” How am I so lucky to have you by my side”. “I can ask you the same thing”. Said Twilight as they both closed the distance and kissed passionately with each other. It wasn’t until they were interrupted by Sour Sweet who came in from the entrance with a gun in her hand. “You ruined my life and now you’ll pay”. Sunset quickly covered Twilight, when the shot was fired. After a few moments have passed Sunset felt nothing damage her from the inside and then she quickly checked on Twilight but nothing happens to her as well. She took a turn and saw that one of her wings has grown bigger than usual. Sour Sweet just got more furious. "Dam You". She shot all of her bullets but they were all blocked by Sunsets wings. As took the cover of Twilight. When Sour Sweet was out of options the only option she has was to run. But Sunset wasn't going to let that happen. "Twilight would you mind staying put till I return it will only take a sec". Twilight accepted but first asked for one more kiss for good pleasure. "Sure". As Sunset zoomed out of the basement. A few seconds have passed and Sunset returns to pick up Twilight. "Ready to go home". As Sunset extends her hand to Twilight. "Yeah, I'm ready". They got out of the school and head to the car. Twilight still felt a bit depressed. "Everything alright Sparky". As she placed her hand on her lover's shoulder. "No it's not fine, I just wish we could all go home together". "Together: said a confused Sunset. "Yeah, the Parakeet. I watched it be destroyed by the hands of that Indigo". As more tears began to rain down from her eyes. "I tried to get her to stop but she just continued on until it was done". She cried even more after that. Sunset took in and embrace Twilight even harder."I'm sorry you have to go through all of that. If I had come sooner I would have stopped that from happening. But don't worry soon we will get another Parakeet and this time we will treasure it forever. "But... next time it won't be the same as this one was". "Don't worry Twi I'm sure that this new one we will get will be even special to us". As she smiled at Twilight. "You really mean it". "Absolutely". As they kiss one last time. "Come on time to take you home". Sunset started the engine and went back to the Sparkles residents. After a few weeks after the incident has passed Sunset did her very best to convince Twilights parents that if she can transfer to CHS to continue her studies. But her parents were still a bit worried for their daughter's sake but Sunset gave in her word that Twilight will be safe as long as she stayed with her by her side. Cadenced help throughout the process since she was dene for Crystal Prep before but she can still work in her magic to make it work. After the process was complete Twilight was officially enrolled in Canterlot High and she was happier than ever. Sunset offer to pick up Twilight for her first day of school which Nightlight agrees to the process but sooner he will be visiting the school to meet with the principal. Twilight wore a light blue shirt with dark blue stripes across with a pink bow tie and a dark purple skirt with stars around it, with light blue knee socks with dark blue shoes to match the style. As she got in the car with Sunset. "Thanks for making this possible for me Sunset, I really appreciate it". "Anything for you Twi and the good thing about today is that you're going to be in my classes for a week until Celestia can create your schedule. She's having a lot of trouble finding classes that are next level for you. Even Luna is suffering throughout the process. HAHA". Sunset laughed to her imagination. "Why I'm not to advance am I". "Kind of but don't worry I think I know which class they will put you in and trust it's more challenging than you expect". "I do love a good challenge". Sunset started her engine ." You ready". As she took a hold of Twilights hand. "As I'll ever be". As they accelerated down the streets to start their new life together at a brand new school.
