With friends like these...
They say friendship is magic... That is bullshit, if you ask Mike "Godzilla" Nakigiwa 37 convicted fellon, where were his friends when he was convicted of murder? They were with him at a bar celebrating a friend coming home from the war in India (2022-2025) around the time of the murder of Sarah Belle. Mike's ex who they both decided to be "just friends", but when they were on the stand they lied straight to the jury's face because they were in the bathroom "getting higher then the empire state". Mike was convicted on August 5th 2025 of 2nd degree murder and disrupting a investigation (for "lying to cops, because his friends all told a different story then Mike!") Mike was charged with 15 years with no possibility for Parole. His friends had ruined his life, after he got out he couldn't get a job because of his conviction, he couldn't go to school to finish his education because he didn't have cash, life stunk for Mike the only thing he didn't get taken away was his car, a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix, it was Black with red stripes running down the side skirts, it had a stock motor and a Nitrous bottle (but Mike didn't need it, though it was stock it did run in the low 10's when it was all motor since it was a GTP (all GTP's have a supercharger racked under the hood just to let you know)) it had custom interior. Mike bought it from a middle age woman (who then, when he bought it was driving a Camaro!) for 2,450 dollars. But since he didn't have cash he couldn't do anything with it considering he barely had enough to get food for himself thanks to his part time job of working at McDonalds so gas money was rare. So eventually he had to sell his ride to the first person he came across. For 3,200 (he put in over a 1,000 dollars into the car mostly for the nitrous and the custom interior).
Sunset Shimmer was like your average high school bitch, mean, beatuiful, had a boyfriend, and was a unicorn from another dimension. She was from the magical,land of Equestria where there ruler randomly dropped in on her student Twilight Sparkle, ooh! That name left a bitter taste in her mouth Twilight had to be little miss know it all, she had to be Celstia's favorite student! Well in order to exact her revenge she needed the elements of harmony but she failed, somehow Twilight went into her diemension thanks to the same magic portal that Sunset went into to get here to Canterlot, Kanas, U.S.A reconnected with her friend's human doplegangers and activated the other elements of harmony and foiled her plot big time, like Big Show (huge wrestler) big. While managing to blow the front entrance to space!!!!! Space people!!! SPACE!!!!!!!!!!!! That big infinite thing!!! Well now the front entrance has landed on the 4th rock from the sun. A new one is in place Sunset has friends, Twilight's friend's doplegangers are her friends but everyone tries to avoid her and her ex-boyfriend can't look at her what's worse is she's starting to miss he old home and realizing her mistakes but she made some awful choices then to back in Equestria too. So yeah, friendship fucked them in ass (sorry for the image).
Both were screwed by friends, maybe just maybe both can get a second chance...
