At school:

Sunset has been put in the same cooking class as Alice, Jerry, Max, and Amy. Sunset is glad she gets to be with her friends, but notice that the students in her class has been staring at her. Today, they are cooking class is making shepherd's pie. Alice, Jerry, Max, and Amy are always in a group together, but this time Sunset will be part of their group for cooking. Alice and the other make sure that Sunset is ready for cooking like having an apron and have her hair in a ponytail braid.

Max turns to Sunset and asks, "Sunset can you chop the carrots and potatoes for us?"

"Sure," Sunset says.

Sunset then grabs the cutting board, the peeler, and the knife from the cabinet and draw and begin to cut the carrots into pieces. Alice and the others can see that Sunset is interested in culinary and love to try the different food they make together.

"I see you like cooking class," Jerry says with a smile.

"Yeah. It maybe hard and it gets hot, but learning how to make this food is very interesting," Sunset replies while cutting the carrot.

Alice turns to Sunset and asks, "So Sunset, how are you enjoying school so far?"

"I'm doing fine, but…" Sunset is about to say, until she stops cutting the potato and starts to feel sad.

"But what?" Alice asks.

"No one has forgotten about what I almost put you all through," Sunset answers with sadness.

Alice and the others are looking at Sunset and can see that she is starting to feel sad and upset about something.

"Why would you say that?" Max asks.

Sunset looks at Max and sadly answers, "Because everyone keeps staring at me."

Max look to see that some of the students are starting at her curiously and some are giving her a bit of a glare while doing their cooking project. Max think the other students are still a little upset with her with the dance and kind of curious about her being in a world full of mythical creatures.

Jerry pat Sunset on the head and says, "Cheer up Sunset."

"I know, but the old me was really awful," Sunset replies still feeling bad about what happened at their dance.

"Well you were bad at the school dance Sunset," Amy says as she grates the cheese.

Sunset bluntly says, "A demon. I turned into a raging she-demon."

"Let's not forget you turned Jessica and her friends into your minions," Amy says.

"And you turned everyone into mindless zombies for your personal army," Jerry replies acting like a zombie himself.

Alice is giving her friends a glare when they mention about the event at the dance. The others understand that mentioning Sunset's evil moment isn't making her any better. They are starting to believe it might make her feel worse.

Then Alice says with reassurance, "Don't worry Sunset, you have us and we forgived you for your bad…um, boo boos."

"She's right, we always got your back and the most important thing that you turned yourself around and changed for the better," Max says.

"Thank you Max," Sunset replies feeling better.

"No problem," Max replies with a smile.

Sunset smile happily to have good friends, but know she still need to learn about friendship and about being in this world. After finishing with getting the ingredients together, they put the two shepard's pie in the oven. Then they need to wait until the cheese on top of the pies are all melted.

Sunset has been wondering about something and decides to ask her friends what it is.

Sunset asks, "So guys I was wondering something."

"What's that?" Amy asks curiously.

"Why are we making two shepherd's pies?" Sunset asks pointing the pies in the oven.

"Well, one of them has ground beef in it while the other one doesn't have any," Max explains.

Sunset looks at the pie and remember back when she was in CHS, she see people eating some products made of meat. At the same time, she sees other products that doesn't have any meat. Sunset realizes that human are omnivores meaning they can eat meat and vegetables, but she remember that some only eat vegetables like she does.

Sunset blushes and says, "Right, I sometimes forget that your kind eat meat and vegetation. At least your having one without meat because I never eat meat, not even when I went to Canterlot High."

"I'm glad about that because I don't eat meat either," Amy replies with a smile.

Sunset laugh happily and says, "Guess we have something in common."

"Plus, we love to share the food we make to the others," Alice replies with a smile.

Everyone in the group smile and love the fact to share the food they make with Clarissa and Joseph. Sunset loves being with the others, but she knows that after culinary class and lunch, she has to be with Joseph. Sunset seems to notice that Joseph is trying to train her, but to Sunset, she thinks he's trying to tire her out.

As they are waiting for the food to be done, Jessica and her friends, Racheal and Serena, come walking towards them and they seem to be more friendly than the last time.

Jessica say, "Hey guys, how are your pies doing?"

"They're doing fine, but you should be watching your pies?" Alice replies.

"We know, but we were hoping to talk to Sunset for a bit," Serena replies.

Sunset looks at the girls with confused look and asks, "About what?"

"About your… well… do you think the magic you did will come back," Racheal asks sounding a bit concern.

Alice and the others look at Jessica and her friends looking kind of confused and wonder what that's about.

Alice asks, "Why would you think that?"

"Because Tori told us about Joseph transformation at the music store, so we're wondering if the same thing will happen to us," Jessica asks.

Sunset and Alice start to think about the event they encounter during the weekend. They are wondering if anyone who are exposed to magic will be having some kind of side effect.

Sunset turns to Jessica and her friends and says, "To be honest, we're trying to figure that out ourselves."

"Sunset's right. It's also possible that anyone who were exposed to Equestrian magic will be experiance this too," Alice adds.

"Why are you ask?" Amy asks.

"I guess I'm a little worried I will be transformed into that thing again," Jessica answers sounding concern.

Sunset starts to feel a bit worried and believe that it might be her fault for happening to them.

Jessica notice Sunset is starting to feel bad, but decides to say something hoping to cheer her up and not to make her feel top bad.

Jessica politely says, "Don't get me wrong Sunset, I did like the clothes the transformation you gave us, but I didn't like what it did to my hair."

Sunset light a little and says, "That's okay. I wasn't sure if that spell was part of the transformation or not, but I'm still working on it."

Alice comes up to Sunset and says, "Don't worry Sunset, we'll figure something out and besides I think Jessica and her friends might be safe."

"Why is that?" Racheal asks.

"Well, I believe it might only happen to me, Sunset and my other friends, since we are fully exposed to the magic more that everyone else," Alice says to the others about her theory.

The others look at Alice about her theory and think it is a possibility it will only happened with Sunset, Alice, and the others since they are more exposed to Equestrian magic than anyone else.

"Well, I hope you guys can figure about this magic stuff out," Serena says.

"Yeah. I sure don't want to go through that again," Racheal adds.

"Don't worry we'll think of something," Sunset says.

"Okay," Jessica says.

With that, Jessica and her friends leave to do their assignment. After they are gone, Alice and the other are still curious about the event that Joseph has.

Sunset worriedly asks, "Do you think we'll be able to figure this out."

"We'll just have to wait and see what happens with the rest of us," Alice answers sounding concern.

Alice and the others hear the time and know that their pies are ready and needs to be cool in order to eat them. When they cool down and the bell rings, Alice and the other bring their pies to Joseph and Clarissa so that they can enjoy their lunch. As they eat, Sunset and Alice have a important job to do and that's to study the magical event from Joseph and possibly to themselves and their other friends. They just have to wait and see what happened.

Author's Note

Sunset seems to be adjusting well, but still needs to find out the magic that is appearing with the help of her friends.
