//-------------------------------------------------------// Offer Sunset Salvation -by Alicorn21- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// You Can't Lock Up The Darkness //-------------------------------------------------------// You Can't Lock Up The Darkness The next morning after Sunset meet Aresius and that Gilda almost tried to kill her. But it seemed like Gilda wasn't trying anymore, the reason why Sunset didn't report Gilda to the police is because she don't have any evidence to prove that Gilda tried to kill her. Sunset and Applejack had already arrived at the school, everyone walked to the door and saw Gilda hanging upside down from a rope from the roof. When she was got down from the roof, she was scared for life like she has seen a ghost. When Sunset came walking to her, Gilda took out an envelope and gave it to Sunset and ran away really quick. People started staring at Sunset, but they stopped and begun walking away minding their own business. Sunset begun running away so she could open that letter, tok out a paper who is from Aresius. It stands I can make it stop if you just join me. Aresius appeared in front of Sunset, Sunset got startled when she saw Aresius. "Can't you just leave me alone" Sunset told Aresius, "if i did then who would be there to protect you" Aresius told Sunset. "If you except my offer then i will make you more powerful then you could ever imagine" Aresius told Sunset to get her to join him. "How do i not know that you're trying to make me your slave" Sunset told Aresius. "I will never turn you to my slave, but what you would call a partner" Aresius told Sunset as he reaches out his hand "both of us can become gods". "I will never join you, you just saying because..." Sunset was interrupted. Both Aresius and Sunset turned their head to see Derpy looking at Sunset. https://camo.derpicdn.net/5ebf9adbe03f981dd1f0f36a489223a733662457?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F8f%2Fb8%2F1f%2F8fb81fd30ee78942c24b145a18177bc0.png "Who are you talking to?" Derpy asked as she was a little wielder out that Sunset was talking to empty air. "Wait, you don't see him?" Sunset asked Derpy. "See who?" Derpy asked. "She can't see me, cause i am a god and i decide who is going to see Sunset Shimmer" Aresius told Sunset "remember i am a god". Aresius disappeared in a flash of light. It's been days since she saw Aresius, it's been pretty quiet around canterlot high school. Nothing special has happened, Sunset still thought about what Aresius did to Gilda. Sunset was at her locker and saw Gilda alone a few feet from her, Sunset begun to become annoyed and walked streight to Gilda. When Gilda saw Sunset approach her, she got quick scared and walked backward away from Sunset. "Gilda what happened to you a few days ago when you were stuck to the ceiling?" Sunset asked Gilda, Gilda didn't know how to answer so she tried anyway "I... I was stuck to the ceiling by a dude in metallic armor and purple lights on him, he told me that i can't kill you cause he got you're back no matter were you go" Gilda said in quick tone. "Did he threaten you?" Sunset asked "Yeah... he told me if i tried to kill you again he would kill me" Gilda said. Sunset begun to think that this Aresius is trying to get the evil Sunset Shimmer back, vice principle Luna walked up to them saying "what the hell is going on here?". "Vice principle Luna, nothing is happening here" Sunset told Luna. Luna believed what Sunset said and walked away, Sunset begun walking away from Gilda. Sunset begun thinking that Aresius was taking it to far to make her join him. Randomly Sunset appeared on the roof of the school, it was like she was teleport-ed there. "There is a ceremony that you could attend with your friends to worship me" Aresius said behind Sunset. Aresius walked to her holding his hands on her shoulders. "Just shut the hell up" Sunset shouted to Aresius to make him go away, "i will never seek power as i did in the past". "Oh i miss that Sunset, well i wish i was there when you almost became a god" Aresius said. "What the fuck do you mean?" Sunset said and moved away from Aresius. "Don't think that you created me, i created myself and you created yourself" Aresius told Sunset as he approached her slowly. "If you let that thing come back to you then you will rule a long side me" Arecius told Sunset, Sunset stepped back and walked down the stairs back inside the school. The school was over and it was beginning to become weekend, Sunset walked to the statue and begun to think about Aresius and how to make him leaving her alone. Sunset friends was walking up to her asking her that she wanted to go on Pinkie Pie's sleepover, Sunset agreed and they arrived at Pinkie Pies house. The girls was having a lot of fun, the things they were talking about were gossip and Rarity braided Rainbow Dash hair. Sunset closes her eyes and when she opens it again she was in a empty white area, she was in an empty void. She turned around and saw Aresius standing a few feets away. "That's cute Sunset, that they asked you that you would join them on their slumber party" Aresius told Sunset, "just shut Aresius". "Like i said, you can't escape me, i know everything about you and you're friends" Aresius told Sunset "remember, i am a god". "You have been saying that thousand times now just leave me alone" Sunset told Aresius. "Just imagine what it would be if you had become a god, let me show you what it would be if you're friends served me" Aresius told Sunset. Sunset appeared in an empty warehouse, sunset turned her head and saw Rainbow Dash with a black leather jacket and one part of her face had a burned scar. "When she was granted speed, she felt a pain like no other" Aresius told Sunset and hold his hands on her shoulders. "But then she realized, god feels no pain and all she needed is to become one" Aresius said "and you can become a god, that's you fate Sunset!" https://camo.derpicdn.net/797db937421fa038da7a4796093a335c71e3c47e?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimg00.deviantart.net%2F5ab0%2Fi%2F2017%2F179%2F2%2F2%2Fgod_feels_no_pain_by_deidrax-dbb64gk.png The scene changed to see a girl Sunset has never seen before, the girl had dark blue hair and black leather suit with a lighting bolt on her chest. Small lighting bolts streaming around her- Aresius walked in front of Sunset bowed down putting his hands on her shoulders and telling her "you can't lock up the darkness, let it be free and let it tell you who you were meant to be". Sunset woke up to see Rainbow Dash waking her up. "Hey Sunset, are you okay you just fell a sleep" Rainbow said. Sunset hugged Rainbow Dash, she was glad to see her and not that thing she saw that was shown by Aresius. "I am fine, i am just glad to see you guys more then anything" Sunset told everyone. Sunset stopped hugging Rainbow Dash and they begun to get something to eat. //-------------------------------------------------------// Offering //-------------------------------------------------------// Offering It's been a while since the event that happened at the fall formal, nothing has been going well with Sunset Shimmer, students giving sideways glances at her and whisperer to each other. Some are even looking away, Sunset kept walking down the hallway and bumped into Trixie. "Well, well, well isn't it Sunset Shimmer" Trixie said. "Shut up Trixie i am not taking any of your shit" Sunset said. "It doesn't seem that anyone wants to be with, ever since the incidence at the fall formal" Trixie said. "Just shut up Trixie!" Sunset shouted and walked away. Sunset walked out of the school outside of the main foyer, she sat down on the stairs and looked at the empty street were she was defeated by Twilight Sparkle and her friends. The school was over anyway and everyone was ready to go home, Sunset was just gonna walk back to her appartement and just relax and watch some TV. "Hey Sunset wait up" Said a female voice behind Sunset. It was Rainbow Dash, she and her friends walked up to Sunset asking her that she wanted to hang out with them. The girls that their lifes Sunset made a living hell out of for many years is asking her to hang out with them. "We wondered that you would hang out with us at Sweet Shoppe?" Rainbow Dash asked "It's okay Rainbow, you can go without me" Sunset Replied. "Why?" Rainbow Dash asked. "I really don't want to talk about it, you can go without me" Sunset told Dashie and walked away Sunset arrived at her appartement, she put her backpack on the chair and laid down on her couch with her face down. She begun turning on the TV to find something to watch, new episodes of The Big Bang Theory aired. This were her favoritt TV show, she really loved Sheldon Cooper. She doesn't know why but Sunset founds Sheldon funny. While she was watching the show, she took up her laptop to check her MyStable Page. She begun to see all the mean stuff people say about her, Sunset decides to delete her MyStable page. She sight, she didn't have a choice but to delete her social media, she closed her laptop. It was a already night time and Sunset became hungry, she went to the fridge but there weren't any food left so she went to buy some more. She walked out of the appartement. She was at the store buying some snacks, she paid for the food and put them in a bag, she walked all the way home until she was dragged into a dead end corner. It was Gilda, "what do want Gilda?" Sunset asked in a worried voice. Sunset was scared of what Gilda was going to do with Sunset, but it got more scary when she pulled a knife out of her pocket. "What are you doing!?" Sunset asked, "i am doing the school a favor Sunset Shimmer, after what happened at the fall formal i can't let it happen again" Gilda said. She svinges the knife to try to stab Sunset, but a streak of light begun to flash behind Gilda. Gilda stopped and looked behind her to see a tall man with an metal armor and purple light lighting up the circle around his chest and eyes. He looked kinda like Savitar from the TV Show The Flash, but he kinda looked like a knight. Or something in a sci fi film. https://camo.derpicdn.net/15e20f929b75356fdc636b998f1bdf7af788eb7c?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimg00.deviantart.net%2F3348%2Fi%2F2015%2F103%2F3%2F0%2Fthe_armor_of_god___lazarus_by_aentheartist-d8k2uq2.jpg Gilda dropped the knife, the man raised up his hands and out of his upper hand came a sword. Gilda was really scared, the man disappeared and the flash of light passed Gilda and Sunset was gone. Sunset appeared on the roof top of a building in the city, her question was how she got there. She turned around to see the same thing that appeared in the back in that street. "Who the hell are you?" Sunset asked. "It's unwise not to bow down to a god" The man said in a dark, cold metallic voice. "Who the hell are you?!" Sunset shouted. "My name is Aresius, the god of chaos, war and power" Aresius said. "Aresius, that's sounds like the name of the Greek god Ares, the god of war" Sunset said "I named myself after him" Aresius told Sunset "You know, if you weren't so weak at the fall formal you could have become a god and ruled equestria" Aresius said and walked in circles around Sunset slowly. "I am a better person now, l learned that friendship..." Sunset got interrupted by Aresius. "Roses are dead, love is fake" Aresius told Sunset "friendship isn't real, sooner or later they will stab you in the back and they will betray you". "Join me so i can give you what you want, you can become a god like me you can rule equestria" Aresius reaches his hand to offer Sunset the ultimate offer. "I will never join you" Sunset told Aresius. "So unwise Sunset, i have the power to travel to that dimension" Aresius said "i can take you home were you belong and you can rule equestria and you can destroy your teacher, princess Celestia" "Like i told you, i will never join you no matter what" Sunset said "princess Celestia was my teacher". "Really, she was a coward, she couldn't go and get you home so she send her prices pupil to stop you" Aresius told Sunset. "She told you once that you were her finest pupil" "You're just saying that to get me to join you" Sunset shouted. "Just except my offer, you're saying that you have changed and stopped being a mean girl while you haven't started to be nice to anyone" Aresius said. "I think you so called friends will join me" Aresius said and looked down at the street. "If you're putting a hand on my friends, then i will kill you" Sunset told Aresius, Aresius turned around and walked to Sunset. "You can't kill a God Sunset, and if you tried to kill me then you have no chance" Aresius said "i know your weaknesses i know you better then you know your self". "You heard Twilight at the fall formal, that you were forever to be alone" Aresius told Sunset "i will never leave you my child, i am only offering you salvation to reach your full potential". Aresius bowed down and put his hands on Sunset's shoulders gently. "I will never join you" Sunset said to Aresius "Then well, i will return for you" Aresius said "no matter what happens to you, i will be there like God should have been for his creations but we all know there is no God". "Then i mean the God in Christianity" Aresius said again. Aresius disappeared and Sunset was back at her appartement. She begun to think about Aresius offering, she will never take his offering no matter what, she believes in friendship and does not seek power anymore.
