Chapters Chapter 1. A Cold Winters Day
Chapter 1. A cold Winters Day
It was a day like any other, just another in a long line of worthless days. The only thing marking this day in anyway memorable was its bitterness. The cold of the winds biting through my thick denim jacket and hoodie underneath. It is around mid January so its nothing really unexpected for where I live but yet today still seemed a little colder than usual. I cup my hands in front of my face blowing upon them as snow crunches under my shoes my pace held steady as I walk down the streets of my hometown, my destination being the warmth of my home another twenty or so minutes away. A strong gust comes up biting through me to the bone, I shiver trying to brace my back to it trying to block as much as I can to keep my front warm. The gust persists and I am forced to duck to the side down a small dead ended alley. Once out of the wind I Huddle myself up to try and gain back what warmth I have lost and to conserve what little I have left. As I huddle in this alley though I notice that a small heap of semi crumpled newspapers is shaking, which is strange as I can't feel the breeze blowing into it and the heap is right near the back. Against all common sense and good judgement and the voice screaming in the back of my head to just get back to going home, my innate curiosity wins out and I find myself moving towards the back needing to know if perhaps its some small animal in need of a home like a lost kitten.
As I move towards the back of the alley the heap stops shaking obviously hearing my steps coming closer to it. I pause but hear another gust of wind go down the street behind me and I continue on until I am standing directly over whatever is there. I slowly crouch down pushing the crumpled newspapers off what I am assuming to be of feline nature not that I have heard any sounds yet. After just a few pieces of paper though I stop seeing a tuft of red and yellow but only for a moment as whatever it is begins to shiver again. I quickly move the rest of it to reveal a tiny little amber colored pony with a red & yellow mane and tail and a horn sticking out of its forehead. Its eyes are closed and it shivers again while I stare in disbelief that a tiny unicorn is laying in front of me. It takes me a few moments but finally I bring up enough brain power to command my arm and hand to move so that I can touch this tiny creature just to make sure its real. When my hand touches its mane though its eyes open and it immediately pulls back away from me, fear alighting in its large blue-green eyes. In response I simply smile at this tiny impossible creature and say.
"Hey there don't worry I'm not gunna hurt you ok. Its really cold out so why don't you come with me and I will take you somewhere much nicer." The tiny thing just looks at me without moving obviously scared of the much larger creature looming over it. Another gust of wind blows by on the street and I watch as this tiny thing shivers again trying to curl its tail around itself for warmth. My heart breaks at both the absolute adorableness of the scene and the sympathy I have for such a tiny creature left to fend for itself against the bitter winds and chill. Knowing that I'm only about 20 minutes from home and that its not cold enough out to kill me in that time I begin to undo the buttons on my jacket. I slide it down over my arms while this thing just looks at me. The moment I have it off me I toss it on top of the little unicorn then wrap it up laying it out against my right arm. It struggles for a few moments until the leftover body heat from me held within the material starts to warm it at which point it pokes it's head out of the bundle and stares up at me.
"See its not so bad," I say to the tiny unicorn gently scratching its muzzle. It smiles at the affection and I return its smile warmly "Now lets get you somewhere warmer huh" When it nods and coo's I begin to suspect that it may be intelligent so as we walk I begin to speak to it not really fearing discovery as the cold has kept most people indoors on this day. "So then little impossible thing. I wonder if you have a name. I didn't see any kind of collar so I don't think your some kind of pet. I also don't see any type of tattoo on you so no way to figure out from that." My attention is caught when one of its little hooves pops out from my jacket and it actually points off to the sky to where the sun has just begun to set. "Yeah that's a beautiful sunset ain't it" The pony nods but then points to itself with the same hoof before pointing back to the sunset.
"Uncet Cimmer"
My jaw literally drops when it speaks. After shaking my head a few times I look at the little unicorn. "Could you say that again didn't quite catch ya the first time?"
"Uncet Cimmer" Comes its quick reply.
"Uncet Cimmer kinda sounds like Sunset Shimmer. Is that what your trying to say?" The little unicorn nods and claps its hooves together. "Alrighty then. I guess your names Sunset Shimmer. Well come on then little Sunset were almost to my place." With that said I quicken my pace starting to shiver myself as the cold bites through my hoodie sending chills throughout my body. The rest of the walk passes by uneventfully little Sunset having passed out in my jacket by the time I get into my fourth floor apartment. I set the tiny unicorn down on my coach leaving her bundled up as I don't want to disturb her. I watch her rest peacefully, silently thinking to myself.
'Ok so first things first. I have found a unicorn. If I hadn't been able to pick it up I would swear this is just a hallucination, but here it is sleeping on my couch wrapped up in my jacket. Telling anyone is definitely out of the question I would get locked up and she would be experimented upon. She almost seems to be from that show but that must be impossible.' I stop my thoughts there as little Sunset stirs slightly but doesn't wake I smile deciding that finding its origins can wait. I sit down next to little Sunset and wait for her to wake up.
Author's Note

Chapter 2. No Longer Alone
I sit there just watching her sleep. her chest slowly rising and falling with her breaths but eventually I do unwrap little Sunset form my jacket curiosity about the little unicorn getting the better of me. I manage to unwrap the little unicorn without waking it The first thought running through my head being 'hmmm can't keep referring to little Sunset as an IT need to learn this little ponies gender."(1)
With that thought I give the little ponies tail a lift. 'Well that settles that. Looks like little Sunset is female' I let go of her tail watching it curl up along her flank dawwing slightly inside. Her gender now known to me. I figure it would be prudent to try and have something made up for little Sunset to eat when she wakes up. So I get up taking the 20 or so steps from my couch to my kitchen. I open my fridge and take a long look inside.
"Hmmmm not much here for a herbivore but hopefully this will do" I Quietly say to myself as I pull some tomatoes, a sweet green bell pepper, two carrots an apple and half a head of lettuce from my fridge. I quickly make up a salad from what I have looking back one last time into my fridge "Definitely gunna need to get more stuff for this little pony. All I have left is meat and bread and not sure how eager she is going to be to eat meat"
I take the salad I have made back over setting it on the table I have next to my couch with my desktop computer on it along with an older model moniter. As I sit down next to Sunset's sleeping form she stirs, her eyes slowly fluttering open. The moment she see's me though once again she tries to crawl backwards away So I put on as friendly a smile as I can speaking slowly and softly to the frightened little pony.
"Hey there. Looks like your awake. Don't worry I am not gunna hurt you Sunset." My words seem to calm her and I reach my hand out gently caressing her mane. Her body relax's and I swear that this little pony begins to make a sound almost like purring. She nuzzles her head against my hand clearly needing and wanting the affection. After a few moments though her little belly rumbles and she looks up at me with her big soft green eyes my heart just about exploding from the sheer cuteness in her face.
"Hungry huh. Don't worry Sunset I have ya covered" I grab the salad I had prepared for her, placing it down in front of her. Sunset looks from me to it cautiously making no move to eat until finally "Its for you Sunset. Don't worry its not gunna hurt you I promise its just a salad" to prove my point I take one of the pieces of carrot out and eat it myself making a point to show me both chewing and swallowing it even showing her my empty mouth afterwards. It does the trick though as within a moment of that she just about dives head first into the bowl the sounds of happy nomming quickly following bringing a smile to my face and a giggle to my lips.
I watch as she devours it in minutes fussing a bit once she has finished. Its at this point that I am glad that I have two nieces and a nephew as it allows me to know what to do. Without saying anything I reach down picking little Sunset up placing her front hooves over my should before patting her back lightly to which she lets out a tiny belch and happy squeel. After a moment she begins to fidget against me so I set her down upon the couch. The moment my hands leave her she is off galloping around my apartment trying to explore every inch of it. I watch as she sticks her head under the couch and then as she pulls her head out with her eyes crossed before she lets out a series of sneezes. I smile watching her feeling happier than I have in years. As she continues around my place sniffing or poking her hoof at pretty much everything I think to myself 'I think I am going to keep her. Don't honestly care who she might belong to or where she might be from. I know its a bit selfish but I haven't been this happy in a long long time and she is going to need someone to take care of her'
My thoughts are broken as I hear a crash then Sunset crying. I go rushing over to make sure she is alright and find a cup broken on the floor little sunset crying in front of it. I quickly scoop her up bringing her up to my face. "Shhhhh it's ok Sunset. its just a cup alright. No need to cry" I stroke her mane softly as I speak. She does calm even though it takes a minute of calm soft words and stroking her mane. Once her tears stop I gently begin to rock her in my arms humming softly her head swaying along to the melody. "There we go that's better now isn't it" I say happily little Sunset cooing and giggling the broken cup all but forgotten by her. I take her back to the couch laying her down on it. "Ok stay here for a moment while I go and clean up the mess"
Sunset nods and sits down on her rump which actually surprises me with just how obedient and well behaved this obviously infant creature seems. 'no way she isn't intelligent" I think to myself as I grab my broom and dustpan quickly cleaning up the shards of the broken cup. By the time I'm done and have returned to Sunset she has once more fallen asleep having actually pulled my jacket back around herself. I chuckle softly at the cuteness before pulling my jacket from around her which does sadly wake her up.
"Come on Sunset how about I make you something more comfy for you to sleep upon" She smiles and nods standing up on her hind legs with her forehooves outstretched to me. "You wanna be held don't you" Another nod from her is all I need to pick her up laying her back out against my right forearm letting her put her entire weight against me. I pull her up close against my body gently scratching her belly with my free hand getting soft coo's from Sunset as I walk across my apartment to the bedroom I have but don't use the only things in it being an old mattress, my clothes and my beddings. I quickly grab one of my extra pillows, a big ex couch cushion that's softer than most of my other actual pillows and a Big red Micro fiber blanket. I throw the blanket over my shoulder taking the pillow in my teeth so I can continue to scratch Sunsets soft belly while I move back to the couch. I lay the pillow down upon the table placing Sunset upon it. I then actually take my blanket and a pair of scissors cutting it down to size for her. I place the new blanket I just cut from the bigger one over her.
"There we go a bed just for you Sunset" I smile and say happily as I finish it for her. She sniffs the pillow and blanket a few times before pulling the fabric around herself smiling back happily. I give her a soft pat on the head before pulling my own bedding out setting it up on my couch. As I lay out under my own blankets i reach over and rub her mane "Goodnight Sunset. Sleep well"
"ood ight ada" comes her broken reply before she lets out another yawn closing her eyes quickly drifting off into a peaceful slumber. Its almost an hour later when I finally realize what it is she said
Author's Note
(1) since i have no idea who to tell the gender of a horse just by looking it at figured it would be unrealisitic for a city born and raised human to know how to. oh and for those wondering Sunset is only slightly older than the cake twins would be now in season 6
And once again if you see any spelling/grammar errors please point em out so I can fix em
Chapter 3. Our First Morning.
Slowly conciousness returns to me as the mornings light floods in through the large glass doors of my balcony almost always hitting me right in the face when the sun comes up above the horizon fully. At first my mind rationalizes what happened the night before as having been a dream until I notice a weight on my chest. Knowing I don't have any pets my eyes open, to be greeted by the sight of a red, yellow and amber ball on my chest. I resist the urge to daww knowing that last night actually happened instead choosing to simply lay there watching as little Sunset's chest slowly rises and falls. Eventually though nature calls and I do have to move her which I do ever so carefully placing her down upon her pillow/cushion the sweet thing doesn't even wake up just shifts a little before resuming what looks like a calm and peaceful sleep. After doing what I must for the morning I come back over sitting down just watching little Sunset sleep.
After almost an hour of just watching this tiny little bundle of fur and hair she finally begins to stir, first stretching out her limbs before letting out a tiny little yawn that almost has me squeeing. Once her eyes are open she looks right at me before pouncing my face giggling. 'note to self she can really jump' I think as I stroke her mane and giggle with her. After a few moments she lets go of my face almost seeming to melt into my arms on her back. I gently scratch her belly which makes her makes the cutest sound ever, sort of like a cross between a coo and a purr. I actually daww when she makes this sound getting her to giggle again before she begins to squirm against my arm.
"Hmm seems like someone might need to use the bathroom huh" Sunset nods eagerly crossing her hind hooves. "Such an intelligent little girl aren'tcha" I say as I carry her to the bathroom holding her over the toiler as she does her business. When she is done I help her get clean and take her back out to the living room where her belly immediately begins to rumble. "Hmmm hungry already huh"
Sunset rubs her belly looking up at me with her big green eyes and my heart just melts and I swear I can feel it flow right out of my chest and into my feet. Without any hesitation I quickly go and grab her what little i have left in the way of fresh greens placing them before her which she somehow uses her hooves to hold as she eats. Once she is done eating I take her back to the bathroom using my own rarely used toothbrush to brush her teeth forgoing toothpaste for now instead going for just some baking soda and water, along with a bit of pure heavily concentrated almost syrup strawberry juice for flavour which I usually keep for putting with ice cream, just to keep it from being some horrible flavour experience for her. I let her sit in the sink with a small bit of water as I brush her teeth and she is content to splash about in it while I do. Figuring I have the chance I fill it up to her waist and pull out a bottle of shampoo and some soap deciding I should get her cleaned up not knowing how long she had been out there for. Once again she is just perfect letting me work the soap slowly into her coat then rinse it then the shampoo into her mane letting it sit while letting her have some fun splashing in the warm water before rinsing it out. After I have her clean I decide to just let her play a bit longer letting her splash about even splashing her softly both of us eventually devolving into complete giggles as water gets everywhere.
After awhile I empty what's left of the water from the sink before toweling her off very well leaving her a big amber puff ball with red and yellow along the top. I cant help myself but daww at this before I grab a brush getting her back to her cute little self. Soon after that I decide to place her on the couch turning on my desktop computer which loads up after a few minutes. Once it has loaded I quickly put on a movie for her thanking my love of children's movies for my large collection of them. I smile as she watches enraptured as the movie Wall-E begins to play. I move over to my laptop turning it on. I smile as the only world that makes sense to me comes online and I load up the internet. Once online I begin to go through forums, blogs etc anything any everything for mentions of colorful unicorns. The only thing I really find is mention of a show that got cancelled after its first season. With a sigh I give up on the main routes and go into the not so main ones using the skills I have acquired mostly through self exploration and the several computer courses I took in high school.
Almost an hour later after looking into many conspiracy sites and blackroom chats having finding nothing I let out a defeated sigh. Looking over I see that the movie is just about over and I go back over to little Sunset who hasn't even moved. I chuckle and sit next to her not even getting a reaction until its over the reaction being her happy squeels of joy. Noticing me she crawls into my lap looking up at me.
"Obots apy ada" I smile at her nodding my heart melting at the sheer adorableness.
"Yes sweety the robots are happy" I say picking her up and snuggling with her getting more squeels of joy from the tiny amber unicorn. I place her back on my lap taking the mouse for my computer in one hand as I look down at her. "Wanna watch another Sunset" Her smile is all I need to put on another movie before laying out with her cuddled up on my chest as we both watch.

having soooo much fun writing this as much fun as I hope you all are having reading it
If you notice any spelling/grammer errors please point them out so I can fix em thanks
The next movie I put on for her is Wreck It Ralph which she just seems to become absorbed right into eventually ignoring me rubbing her belly and sides for the movie. She hides her eyes behind her hooves when Ralph goes into the Hero's Duty tower for his "hero medal" the cybugs frightening her a little. She practically leaps off me when she see's the Sugar Rush lands, even growls at king candy just seeming to know that he's no good. She cheers for Vanelope when she first learns to race and again during her race against king candy/turbo. As Ralph makes Cybug Turbo drop him though over cola mountain something strange happens. As little Sunset begins to tear up, even her young mind thinking that Ralph is going to meet his end. Sparks come from her horn, just a few though enough to make me wonder if its just my eyes playing tricks on me. But then when Vanelope saves Ralph along with her shouts of joy comes a gout of fire from the tip of Sunset's horn.
I of course freak out over this "Holy hell she just turned into a flamethrower" is my immediate reaction to her, hers though is simply to stare cross eyed up at her horn.
"fwaaaaa " she lets out mimicking the sound of the fire as she throws her hooves up, another burst of flame comes from her horn as she does. Once it has dissipated she bursts into giggles. After making sure that my ceiling is not on fire I look down at the giggling unicorn.
"Well looks like I've got a little pyro on my hands huh" That's what I say out loud to her at least the thoughts running through my head being something more like this 'Holy hell. What did she just do. I have no way to explain this' to name just a few of the things running through my mind.
I pick Sunset up lifting her to my face. "Do you know how you did that Sunset"
A shake of her head is her reply. "Guess you don't know then huh. Something for us to work on together." I say nuzzling my noses softly against hers which elicits another round of giggles from the cute amber unicorn. The rest of the morning passes by more or less uneventfully. We watch a few more movies, I am very careful though of which ones I put on not wanting another burst of fire to come from her. After movie time I manage to tuck her into a backpack so I don't have to leave her alone in my apartment. With her all snug in it with a small blanket to wrap up in I go out into the cold to get fresh food for her.
The walk while cold for me is peaceful and calming. Sunset manages to remain completely quiet during the entire trip only shifting herself every so often to keep comfy. When we get back to the safety of my apartment the first thing I do is unzip my backpack, scoop my little Sunset out, pulling her right up against my chest in a big hug. "You were such a good girl Sunset" I praise her while smiling which brings a smile big enough to almost seem to split her face. She nuzzles her head against my chest, as her fore hooves spread out wide trying to wrap themselves around me only just barely making it to my sides. She gives me a squeeze and I give her one back just enjoying this sweet moment of happiness.
When our hug ends I lift her up to look at me smiling still. Her blue-green eyes sparkle as she looks back making her all the more cuter. "Even though you have only been in it less than a day. Your the best thing to ever happen in my life Sunset." The looks she gives me tells me she doesn't quite understand but she still smiles and giggles any ways before booping my nose with a hoof, sending us both into giggles. After our giggles die off I make her something to eat, which mostly consists of some vegetable based baby food I bought. Spoon feeding her turned out to be a rather difficult task as I think between the both of us we ended up getting as much on her, me and the floor as we did in her belly.
Author's Note
bit of a short chapter. Am having trouble finding enough inspiration at the moment as I am having a few problems in my life but I am still trying to work on this one as it makes me happy to write. If you notice any spelling/grammar/punctuation(honestly my biggest problem in my own opinion) errors please point them out to me so that they can be fixed and the story made better
After Lunch I give little Sunset another bath in the bathroom sink. She squeels and splashes in the water as I scrub her down with some shampoo as she seems to enjoy being in the warm water. I giggle as one of the bubbles from the shampoo come down from her mane. she bites it only to wrinkle her muzzle up at the taste.
"Silly Sunset bubbles are fun to play with, but do not taste very good" i tell her once my giggles stop from her cuteness. To which she replies by puffing out her cheeks which brings another cuteness induced set of giggles from me. After her bath I introduce her to the wonders of children's television programming thanks to my favorite streaming site. I of course start with the basics, Spongebob, fairly odd parents etc shows I myself have watched and know to be fairly wholesome if not at least completely distracting for someone of her age. We spend pretty much the rest of the day like that, me laid out on the couch with her curled up on my chest watching the monitor, we even fall asleep like that sometime after he sun finally dips down over the horizon.
The next morning when I wake up i find it hard to not d'aww just from how cute Sunset looks curled up into a little ball on my chest. 'I think I could really get used to this' is my first thought of the day my second coming when I turn my head and look out my large glass balcony door to see that almost a foot of snow accumulated overnight. 'Huh it snowed. Wonder how Sunsets gunna react to that' A few moments later I move her to her pillow and do my morning stuff. when I return i find her at the door looking out with big wide eyes at the blanket of white covering my balcony. A single big eyed look at me tells me exactly what she wants and i go over opening the door.
At first Sunset just stares out at the snow before she reaches out a hoof and touches it pulling back quickly from the chill it immediately imparts. I giggle then kneel down next to her grabbing a handful of snow holding it infront of her face. "Its called snow Sunset. Yes its cold but can be fun. I should have enough pairs of big wooly thermal socks that you can put on so you can run around in it if you want" Her smile is all I need to go and retrieve said socks helping her to put them on, each one complete covering her hoof and legs, each sock being big enough that i actually have to tie them off at the top of her legs to keep them up.
With the socks on though she doesn't waste a single moment bounding out onto the balcony into what is knee deep snow for her. Seeing her struggle in it i quickly come out to help her making sure to throw on a jacket first. I clear some of the snow away from around her giving her a bit of space to move. Which she uses to immediately jump into the small pile of snow I made freeing her. After a good giggle I pull her out and make a snow ball for her showing her that if she pushes it around it will gather snow and get bigger. With an excited squeel she goes running around pushing the ball in front of her around the balcony until its bigger than her head.
"Good Work Sunset now we gotta make two more" She looks up at me questioningly as i say this but goes about making two more with just as much enthusiasm as the first. Once she has made two more I quickly shave snow off he second and third to make them incrementally smaller than the previous one before stacking them up. Sunset of course just looks up at me as i work. Not having any kind of trimmings I simply carve a smiley face into the top snowball. When she looks at it with only confusion I giggle and inform her "It's called a snowman Sunset. its supposed to be fun to build"
She stares at the tiny snowman for a moment before she goes plowing through it horn first with a squeal of laughter. Having found something she finds funny i make another tiny snowman which she goes running through again with the same squeal. Once she finally starts shivering I scoop her up and bring her back inside.Wrapping her up in a blanket I set her on the couch getting some cartoons going for her. "We had a lot of fun in the snow didn't we Sunset. Now though comes the part most children really love" once again she looks at me with confusion but i just giggle "Just stay there and watch cartoons sweetheart and i will be back in a few minutes or so with something hot and delicious for you."
Bless my heart if she doesn't simply nod and focus on the cartoons while I make my way to the kitchen. I set up the kettle and take out my last bit of hot chocolate mix. Setting the kettle to boil I just stand there thinking back on how my life was before just a few days ago.

really sorry for the short chapter just wanted to put out something to show you all that i am still thinking of you all and that i havent forgotten about these stories. my life has just been busy and hectic and havent had much time or focus to be able to write.
48 HOURS EARLIER
I take a deep breath as i step out into the cold, the wind bites into me through my clothes and skin right down to my bones with each gust. I look out over my city from the roof of my building, just staring out at the view. With a shiver from the cold i walk forwards feeling the hard concrete beneath me through the soft soles of my shoes. As I reach the edge I stop looking down at the six story fall in front of me. A single step forwards and I'm standing on the lip ready to let this world go, let the loneliness consume me. AS I go to take that next step forwards though....
The Sound of the kettle snaps me back to reality from my memories a smile coming to my face as I hear Sunset giggling happily to her cartoons. I flick off the kettle letting it sit for a moment as I grab a jar of the baby food i bought for her. After pouring the water into a cup and stirring in the chocolate mix I take both over to my little equine bundle of joy, setting both items down before scooping her up into my arms hugging her tightly. She squeals in surprise before spreading her hooves out over my chest hugging me back.
"ov oo ada" Sunset says as she nuzzles her face against my shoulder. I stand there in stunned silence for a few moments just processing it before I can reply.
"I..I love you to Sunset. I don't know what i would do if you hadn't come into my life." After another moment I sit down helping her to eat her breakfast and her hot chocolate.

sorry for the sad start and extremly short length to this chapter just wanted to give a small glimpse into the humans life just before he got his little pony and finish off the start of the second morning. Also for those who may be wondering why Sunset has become so attached to him so quickly. unlike my little dashie where Dash is like 4-5 years old at the start in this Sunset only like 1-2 years old. in her case its more emotional need than anything. she requires and NEEDS love and attention in her life at this stage and for an infant that comes from a parent. also for those of you who want. i am taking suggestions on things for Sunset and our human to do. otherwise will probably just end up doing several time jump chapters to get sunset to the point where she can talk and be an active part of the story.
Its been a month now since I first found Little Sunset cold and alone in that alley. Its been the single happiest month of my life to, well save for the incident about 3 weeks after i found her. It started like any other day, I woke up fed Sunset her breakfast, and had just turned on some cartoons when my buzzer had gone off. I nearly threw Sunset off me as I jumped up. Thankfully I had a hand draped over her at the time so I managed to catch her, she giggled as I put her down and went to answer the incessant buzzing of my apartments door/intercom system.
"Hello" I say into the small mic before pushing the listen button.
"Hey did you forget about me or something" Comes a familiar if slightly broken up voice from the speaker.
"Oh crap" is my first thought. I had been completely ignoring the only person in the world I could even consider my friend. "Heh no just been busy with something" I push the listen button again only to hear the unmistakable sound of the front door to my building opening. Its at this point that i do start to panic having remembered that I gave her a set of keys to get in for the reason of checking up on me. Its not long before I can hear the old elevator moving up the floors towards mine. Not even a minute later comes the unique knock of my friend.
"Hey I know you are in there so come on open up eh. If ya don't you know I'm just gunna come in anyways" Comes my friends voice with a chuckle
I stand there frozen in full on panic mode, Sunset though with a slight giggle lights up her horn and unlocks the door letting it slowly swing open. As my friend steps into my apartment i just about have a stroke, heart attack and full on brain failure simultaneously. My friends reaction is just as priceless.
"Hey ther...."she goes to say as she turns the corner looking into my living room my friend freezes looking right at Sunset. My panic grows right up until my friend lets out a squeel. "Oh my god isnt that just the cutest thing ever" She rushes right past me getting right close to Sunset, only to have her hand bit when she tries to pick her up. "Hey! Ow." her eyes slowly go wide as she looks over to me. "That...that's not a stuffed animal is it"
Before I can even reply Sunset lets out a tiny little growl towards my friend. "Ony ada cam tuch" My friends jaw drops almost literally to the floor as Sunset speaks.
"Did..did that thing just speak" My friend says backing up slowly from Sunset
"Hey she is not a thing ." i finally say coming out of my stupor and moving over to Sunset picking her up letting her lay out on her back in my arms, as i gently scratch her belly getting her to giggle and coo softly. "She has a name It's Sunset Shimmer and I have no doubt in my mind that she is just as smart as either of us or any other human on this planet"
It takes my friend sometime to get over her shock before she begins rapid firing questions at me. "What is she? How did she get here?" I stop her after her first two questions by raising my hand up slightly.
"Come on and sit down its a bit of a story" I say moving to my couch setting Sunset on my lap.
