...The Revenge Enacted...

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Sunset Shimmer was watching her friends say goodbye to Twilight and watched as Vinyl drove off to her own home. Everything was as it should, she was friends with most of the school now, said school was no longer under attack by otherworldly beings made from and/or using Equestrian magic, and she was now a member of the Rainbooms. This night could be better, but it could get worse.

After saying goodbye to Rarity, who had kindly drove Sunset home to her flat, she entered her living area and gave it a small smile. Until she saw the all white male in black street clothes sitting at her tiny table, drinking a glass of water while wearing a grin to rival Pinkie's once his eyes landed on hers.

"Good evening, you must be Ms. Shimmer correct? Oh of course you are come have a seat," the man motioned towards the other chair in the small space, disregarding the fact that she was the owner and he was the intruder. Okay, if I'm quick I can drop him and interrogate him on why he's here.

"Sunset, you wound me, do you really think you can get the drop on me? In any case I was going to explain my visit to you, now let's do this like the civilized pony and otherworldly being that you and I are respectively hmm?" Sunset was stunned, otherworldly being? She quietly sat down on the easy chair near the man and he, in turn, turned so he was facing her.

"So why are you here?"

"Good question, here's the answer. You essentially attacked and destroyed three girls bent on controlling the world by blowing up their only link to magic, their pendants. As such, they name you sole recipient of their anger and solely seek revenge on you, since they had defeated the other six girls before you intervened. So, why am I here? I am the instrument of their revenge and the giver of more power than they can imagine. In short, I am here to end you," once the last words were said Sunset opened her mouth to retort but the man snapped his fingers and Sunset grabbed her chest as her heart literally exploded. She gasped for a couple moments before hitting the floor, blood slowly leaving her mouth.

"Looks like the bad guys won this round my dear." The man snapped his fingers again and was gone, leaving Sunset's corpse on the floor, a horrified look stuck to her face.


Author's Note

So I'm not going to lie, I consider Sunset Shimmer to be Best Equestria Girl, tied only with Fanfiction Sonata for 1st place. So I understand how mad some of you Bronies are going to be to see me kill her off with no fight. Your revenge will be swift, I promise you.
