The New Student

After they got their food from the lunch line, they were looking for a place to sit as Danto remembered where Rainbow and her friends sat.

"Over there." Danto said while pointing with his tray.

"Do we have to? You do realize who sits with them right?" El said pointing out that he was remembering the old Sunset Shimmer as he looked at her walking to the table.

"Oh don't be like that. If you are, I'm gonna start calling you a chicken for not sitting with her."

"You better not."

"Bawk Bawk, Ba-Kaw." Danto said jokingly, making El give in.

"Fine. I'll do it." El said, deciding to give Sunset a chance to see if she can earn El's respect and trust to be a friend of his.

Danto met up with Rainbow friends after trying to maneuver through the crowd. "Hey everybody."

"Hey Danto, Are these your friends you mentioned earlier?"

"Yep. Everyone this is Clem,"

"Howdy."

"And El."

"Hey."

"Clem, El, meet my friends. Pinkie, AJ, Rainbow, Fluttershy, and... Rarity. Hey, where's Sunset?"

"She's probably finishing up her tour."

"You wouldn't mind would you?" Aldon said giving Rainbow the idea of them wanting to sit with Rainbow and her friends.

"Go ahead, just pull up some extra chairs."

The four of them pull up a chair for each and every one of them.

El look at Sunset walking toward the table and sat next to him.

"Hey, are you-"

"Yep, Rainbow asked the same thing, just a few seconds ago."

"Oh, okay."

Danto leaned to El and whispered, "See she's not mean as she was before. She's redeeming herself. You got to trust her now."

"Fine. I'll trust her, if it will shut you up about this." El whispered in response.

"There you see. That was so hard now was it?"

"Shut up." El said as Danto let out a small chuckle.

"So, how was the tour?"

"I don't know, I mean these girl there was. There was something off about them."

"Like, off like this?" Pinkie said making her hair into a beard like figure on her face. Danto and his friends and a small chuckle from the first guess. "Or off like this?" she guessed again by using two pieces of lettuce as eyebrows and two carrots, one having a bite and the other not bitten, as teeth. Danto and his friends let out a small laugh for that guess. "Or or..." she was going to guess again but was cut off by Rainbow.

"Maybe we should just let her tell us." Danto and his friend "aww'd" by the fact of the face guessing was done for now.

"That's just it, I can't put my finger on it. They just acted sorta, strange around me. Maybe someone talked to them, told them about what I did. Augh, So much for a first impression."

"Uh-huh" Fluttershy said agreeing with her judgement as everyone at the table looked her, "Oh that's probably not it." She said thinking it would fix what she didn't mean to say. She then slowly went down in her chair, not saying anything to try and help the situation.

Danto nudged El, "Say something to cheer her up."

"Why me?"

"You're the only one who was talking slight trash about her when we were looking somewhere to sit. Besides Me, Aldon and Clem could cheer her up easily."

"Fine. You owe me."

"Deal."

"Sunset..." El said as Sunset look at him to see what he would say. "Yeah?"

"I don't think anyone would bother tell those three about your past. Personally, I wouldn't have trusted you, I probably would've told them about your past at the Fall Formal."

"Y-You trust in me?"

"Yeah. Danto and Aldon told me that your redeeming yourself by doing things like this. So, they told me to trust you and I will."

"Thanks."

"No problem." El said turning to Aldo and Danto as they put thumbs up for cheering Sunset up.

The doors suddenly swung open as the 3 girls Sunset, Danto and his friends saw earlier as they started to sing in a harmonic and hypnotic type of way.

"Come on." Sunset said getting up. "Let's found out what's up with those 3 girls."

"Alright, we're coming with. We want to see where this could go."

As they walked down the hall, Sunset was wondering what was going on in the cafeteria. "Those 3 are in some kind of possession of some kind of dark magic, how else could you explain what happened back there?"

"Don't worry. We'll let Principal Celestia all about this and those girls will be kick onto the curb in no time. Last thing she needs is another CHS event almost ruined by a power crazed lunatic." Applejack explained then remembering the Fall Formal. "No offense."

Sunset sighed, "None taken."

As they were at the office Danto said, "You can talk to her about that, we'll talk to her about something else."

"What?"

"You'll see later on."

"Okay..."
