Previous ChapterNext Chapter

It was a normal afternoon at CHS, everyone was getting their books back at the locker so they can go home. Everyone was whispering and murmuring outside the school when they saw a person who was wearing a a navy shirt, glasses, face mask, bonnet, black jeans, and white shoes. That person was Sunset Shimmer, she was waiting for someone at CHS for a reason.

Friendship lesson number 1: Reconnect with an old friend of yours

Sunset sighed and walks inside the school, All the students saw her passing by and started to whisper to their friends. Sunset didn't care, she just wanted to get this over with. She heard music coming from the music room and she followed the sounds. Not only that she felt like a force was pushing her to go to that room, its like she felt equestrian magic. She stopped in front of the door and opened it to take a peak and saw her princess was discussing something with her friends.

"Didn't you have feelings for Flash?".

"Well his just a crush, its just that *sighs dreamily* she's different".

"Tell us more darling!".

Pinkie was about to speak but Rainbow Dash covered her mouth before she even Pinkie do her pinkie sense. The princess then told them about the story of how she and her girlfriend met and how she confessed her feelings to her love. (Recall for the Book 1 and 2 of HSSC).

Sunset saw the last person she wanted to see, her ex girlfriend Twilight Sparkle. She had gathered her courage and quietly opens the door to go inside, The mane 7 saw her and wanted to say something but Sunset signals them to keep quiet. She tiptoed slowly behind the princess.

She blew on the princess's ear and it made her scream in panic and turn about to punch the person who did it. Luckily, Sunset caught her first when the princess threw it. They both were staring at each other for a moment and Sunset cleared her throat. The princess shook her head and wrap her arms around her girlfriend's arm and looked at her friends.

"I like you all to meet my girlfriend".

Sunset took off her beanie letting her pixie hair to fall down and she remove her face mask, she was earned by the sound of gasp coming from the Mane 7. She smiled nervously and waved at them awkwardly, she was sweating due to the silence she was hearing. She was panicking on the inside, she can even hear her brain screaming for help.

"Whoa! This Sunset is way more hotter than ours".

"I heard that Dash!!...... I gotta admit you rock that pixie hair".

"Thanks um.... me?".

"Darling you must tell me where you go shopping!".

Sunset looked at them confusedly and gestures herself and her counterpart.

"Isn't this weird for you guys?".

"We faced 2 demons, 3 magical giant sea horses from another dimension, a giant woman who wants everyone to see her as a star, a camp counselor who turned into some evil mother nature monster, a harmless teenage girl who erased our memories, and we have pony powers. How can 2 Sunsets be weird if we can see 2 Twilights?".

Everyone was looking at Pinkie and Sunset was shock when Pinkie had said that. She was pat on the shoulder by her princess, she wanted to ask Pinkie but Princess Twilight interrupted her.

"She's Pinkie Pie, don't question anything".

"So how are we gonna tell who's our Sunset and the human Sunset?".

"Simple!, Let's call the human Sunset, Sunset with aqua eyes and for our Sunset, Sunset with teal eyes!".

"Not gonna happen Pinkie".

Sunset gestures her counterpart to get up, once she got up she walks towards the human Sunset and stood beside her. Their height was different, The human Sunset was taller than their Sunset.

"How about you call me Sun".

"And you can call me Shim"

The rest had agreed to the nicknames, while Twilight wasn't processing everything that had happened. Here she is, seeing her ex hotter than before.

"Hey Twilight.... can we talk".

Twilight slowly nodded and they both walked out of the room. The princess smiled and hope that their talk was going to be okay. A few minutes later, Sun and Twilight walked inside with a smile on their faces.

"Hey girls, me and Sun will be going to the park to hang out".

"Okay Twi".

After the both had left, they looked at the princess with concern on their faces.

"I'm sure their hang out will be like their old hang outs besides, I taught her friendship is magic. She need to reconnect with her first friend".


"SCREW FRIENDSHIP!, SHE CLEARLY STILL HAVE FEELINGS FOR MY SUNSET!".

"Shush princess!, you gonna blow our cover if you keep whining".

They were watching Sun and Twilight laughing at the stories and jokes that they shared with each other while they were eating ice cream. They look like they were having a great time, while the princess was piss and tries to calm her negativity down. She knew she said to reconnect with an old friend but when she was watching, she can't help but feel like she was jealous.

She can clearly tell that Sun was using some cheesy pick up lines to her counterpart making her laugh so hard and playfully punch the shoulder of her girlfriend. Princess Twilight clears her throat and tries to act like her counterpart, She did a bad lip reading pretending that it was Twilight's words coming from her mouth.

"Hi Sunset, look at my little glasses and pretty attractive sad face. Do you think that I'm more prettier than the princess?. AUGH!".

The mane 6 shushes the princess to keep quiet and continues to watch.

"You got ice cream on your face Sun".

Sunset wipes her right cheek with a tissue and looks at Twilight.

"Is it gone?".

Twilight then licked Sunset's left cheek where the ice cream was and Sunset blushed a little and looked away nervously laughing, Twilight giggled and wipes her friend's cheek with a tissue. Princess Twilight however had enough, she got up from the bush and was going to storm to the 2 friends but she was held back by Applejack who was worried.

"Let me at her!".

"Princess please calm down!".

Sun looked back at Twilight and sighed, she remembered every hang outs they did a year ago. She gathered up her courage and started to talk.

"I know you still love me but you must know that I already have Princess Twilight, I see that you and tree branch are a couple. You both look cute by the way".

"Thanks".

"Its best if we don't see each other anymore Twilight".

"Why not, you literally just ask me to hang out with you today".

"Princess Twilight told me to do this so I can learn friendsh-".

"If the princess didn't ask you to do this, would you still ask me?".

".....Um...".

"I.... still love you... okay".

"Twilight I told you, the princess is my world".

"Funny, you told me same thing when we were dating".

"I don't have a choice but to listen to the princess!, Your the one who wanted to end this relationship!!".

"Because you and Moondancer kissed!".

"IF YOU WOULD JUST LET ME EXPLAIN WE WOULD STILL BE TOGETHER BUT NO!, I WISH I DIDN'T HAVE SAVED YOU FROM THOSE MEN SO NONE OF THIS WOULD EVER HAPPENED!!".

Sunset realize what she had said and saw Twilight with a shock expression. She knew that the day she had saved Twilight was the day that Twilight called Sunset her hero, Twilight looked down sad and Sunset lifted her hand.

"I'll just go home".

"Twilight wait!".

Twilight stood up and walked away upset, Sun got and grabbed her wrist. Time was slowly moving, Sun was seeing all of Twilight's memories. It was memories of her and Twilight when they first met, their hang outs, their outings as a couple, and their embarrassing moments.

Sun removed her hand from Twilight's wrist and slowly feels dizzy, All she can see is a blur scenery of Twilight walking away. Sun sat on the bench and sighed sadly, she felt a pair of multiple arms hugging her. She looked and saw her princess's friends were hugging her for comfort. Sun smiled and told her it was okay. She knew she would apologize to Twilight somehow.
