A girl lost to the world beyond the mirror, her life unknown to all and her name remembered by only one.

A pony wandering amongst her books, a national hero and friend to many.

Both their lives will be tied together by a single book thought long since lost to time. Drawn in by tales of heroism and valor, of hatred and evil; the acts of great heroes and monsters. And at the centre of all of it? One girl, a name strangely familiar yet wholly foreign to her:

Sunset Shimmer.

A complete re-make of 'A New Arrivial, remade with a new focus, an entirely different story style, and the experience I've gotten from my other stories.

Tags may change as chapters progress.

This story is a sequel to A New Arrival

A collection of short semi interconnected stories from the main that I didn't want to/couldn't fit with the main story.

We all know the story, Sunset runs from Celestia through the portal and arrives in the human world at Canterlot High, but what if she arrived at a different one, one that wasn't so open and friendly, one of iron and blood.

She's fought to survive alone in a city time has forgotten. She's fought battles at a scale her home could never even imagine. Faced things not even Discord could think of, stood where even Tartarus couldn't compare. Now we follow the story of a different Sunset Shimmer through her journeys with a drastically different cast, and a world that's seemingly always on the brink of war.

They say that the deadliest weapon on Earth is: 'a Marine and his rifle', but they're wrong; she's the deadliest thing on Earth.

And now?

She's heading home, for Canterlot is calling. Brace yourself Equestria, a Bloody Phoenix is coming home.
