It all started with a sandwich
Six members of the Humane Seven were sitting nervously in Sunset Shimmer’s living room, all of them opening their mouths at some point to try and say something, but closing it when nothing came to mind to adequately describe the situation that they currently faced with.
Well, more of the individual that was joining them, who quite frankly, was creeping them all out.
Finally, Rarity had enough of the awkward silence.
“Sunset, darling, who is your, uh, friend?” She asked nervously.
Sunset poked her head out of the kitchen where she was making sandwiches.
“Oh, her? That’s Sasha.” She replied before going back into the kitchen after looking at the woman on the couch.
The aforementioned woman raised her hand and wiggled her fingers in greeting.
“Such a pleasure to meet you all. Sunny has told me so much about you girls.” She said, her voice sending shivers down the assembled girls, making certain parts of their anatomy clench, regardless of sexual preference.
“S-so how did you two meet?” Twilight Sparkle asked, adjusting the collar on her Crystal Prep uniform.
“Oh, Sunny has become a big name in the Underworld. She makes an amazing sandwich.” Sasha replied with a purr.
From the kitchen Sunset groaned.
“I swear you accidentally summon a demon when making a sandwich one time and you never hear the end of it.” She groused as she brought in a heaping plate of the aforementioned food stuff.
Rainbow Dash asked the obvious question.
“Summoned a demon? Making a sandwich? How does that even work?!?” She exclaimed.
“It was a Thursday I think.” Sunset said before shaking her head. “Never could get the hang of Thursdays. Anyways, I was in my kitchen after school, I was hungry, I made a sandwich, accidentally made a summoning glyph, and Boom! Demon in my kitchen. I had a cup of tea in one hand and a nice cucumber and ham sandwich in the other. So I did the only thing I could do in that situation.” Sunset said as she passed out the sandwiches.
“Lost control of your bowels and screamed like a little bitch?” Dash asked.
“Nope, handed him my sandwich and tea.” Sunset said as she bit into her pastrami and rye.
“Her sandwich making skills are to die for.” Sasha said as she picked up a tuna sandwich.
The other six females looked at each other in disbelief.
“Now Sunset, I think that we need a mite bit more detail than that.” Applejack said finally. [
Sunset sighed dramatically. “Fiiiine. It all started after the Friendship Games.”
Sunset sang to herself as she gathered up the ingredients to make herself a cucumber and ham sandwich. Bread, swiss cheese, mustard, a cucumber, and freshly cut black forest ham from the deli down the road all made their way to the counter top.
Shaking the mustard she contemplated the best way to layer the ingredients between the bread to get the maximum amount of meat and cucumber in each bite. Squeezing the mustard over both slices of bread, she never noticed the strange pattern that ended up on the bread.
As she place the meat and cheese on the bread, she noticed the smell of sulfur.
‘Must be the upstairs neighbors again. They are always doing something kinky.’ Sunset thought as she began peeling and slicing the cucumber. Shaking her head as she placed some of the slices on the meat before adding another layer of meat and then grabbing her cup of tea, she turned around.
]Only to find a rather handsome looking man sitting at her table.
Brown hair, brown eyes, a dusting of stubble on his face, a slightly rounded jaw, he cut quite the impressive figure.
“Who are you?” Sunset asked, quirking an eyebrow.
“The name’s Samuel. I happen to be a demon. And this is quite possibly the most interesting summoning that I have ever been party to.” The now identified Samuel replied.
Sunset was quiet for a moment before she shrugged and put the plate and mug in front of Samuel.
To his credit, a raised eyebrow was all the evidence that the demon gave as being surprised at the offer. Shrugging, he picked up the sandwich and took a bite.
He then quickly finished the sandwich and took a sip of tea.
“Now that is a good cuppa. Haven’t had a decent one in years. Not since some bloke in England wanted some talent as a rock star back in the sixties. Now I have to hear every damn day that I haven’t collected on his contract because he has taken so many drugs over the years he practically made himself immortal. I was sure that quad accident would have done him in.” Samuel said as he sat back.
“So what happens now? I seriously did not mean to summon you. Just trying to make a snack.” Sunset said, having taken a seat while Samuel was eating.
“Well, for the food and the cuppa, we’ll just call this one a wash.” Samuel said. “Just next time, don’t be channeling magic when you’re doing something that could possibly summon something pony-girl. The others might not be as forgiving.”
“I’ll keep that in mind. Would you like a sandwich or two for the road?” Sunset asked, hoping that she could stay in the demon’s good graces long enough to die of old age.
“Certainly luv, I haven’t had anything that good in centuries.” He replied.
Soon, with sandwiches and a thermos of tea in hand, Samuel departed when Sunset turn to look at her phone going off, leaving only the slight smell of brimstone behind.
“The next day, I go to the mail and everything I need to live here on this world legally is in this envelope.” Sunset finished.
Twilight looked up from her Ruben. “Those were those papers that you asked me to check the validity of!”
Sunset nodded. “I wanted to make sure that someone wasn’t playing some kind of sick prank on me. But, I have my citizenship papers, and best of all, no contract.”
“Really? Man I wish I had something that could get me good stuff without having to sell my soul.” Pinkie Pie said after swallowing her roast beef sandwich. Whole.
Sasha looked at the pinkette for a moment before turning to Sunset.
“Are you sure she is not a demon?” She asked the mare-turned-human.
“Don’t Sasha. I think even the Old Ones would go mad trying to figure out Pinkie.” Sunset replied with a shake of her head.

So with only this comment comment on this story I had the plot bunny for this appear. I will make a few chapters, and am open to suggestions for the various demons that Sunset will meet.
