In the back room of Canterlot High was a young man with blazing red hair and golden streaks going through it that looked like streaks of sunlight. He was giving himself the workout of a lifetime as he slammed kick after kick and punch after punch into the body size punching bag in front of him. His name, Sunset Glare. 18 years old, student at Canterlot High, and former personal student of Princess Celestia.

He had just had an interesting conversation with Twilight Sparkle, via the journal she gave to him, so they could stay in contact. Despite what she thought, Sunset was not ready to see Celestia or even talk to her. In fact, he didn’t want anything to do with her. Especially after the most recent developments.

He was just a tool to her. Something to use and toss aside. Yeah, he let his need to be the best get to him, but he was just a colt at the time. She could have just stored the mirror away, hell she could have hid it from him. She was the one to show him it in the first place! But now all of a sudden, she was begging him to come back.

After all these years being on his own, in another world, with no one caring whether he lived or died. He lived in a boy’s home for a while. The worst part was that she swept his entire existence under the rug. Twilight never even knew Celestia had another student. Until he stole her crown, the element of magic.
Twilight was one of his best friends, he respected her, and she was there for him no matter what. Thanks to her he changed his ways.

His life was much better than it used to be. A life he built from hard work. He had more than enough money saved up for college. For the longest time he just held on to the solid gold bits that he had as a memento from home. When he found out that gold was worth a lot in this world, it was around the same time that his magic was starting to return to him. He used a duplication spell to make copies of the coins.

He had a safe in his basement with literally thousands of solid gold bits. All he had to do was go to a pawn shop or gold dealers here and there, and boom he was rich. The last time he checked the selling price of gold was over $38,000 per kilo. Up until that point he worked odd jobs while being a ward of the state, trying to make ends meet.

Needless to say, he would never need to work again. But he made sure to only sell a little bit here and there while in disguise, so no one would ask too many questions. He did have to make sure that he didn’t spend too much in front of others, otherwise he would attract the wrong type of people who only wanted to be friends with him for his money. He liked to have a little fun every now and then. But he mainly saved it up.

Thankfully while he was living at the boy’s home when he was younger, the government made up some documents, social security cards, and legal documents since they assumed he was some secret love child that was abandoned that the parents never reported the birth on. It would have been much harder going through life as a John Doe.

He slammed a roundhouse kick into the bag making the support beams shake and creak as he thought back to why Celestia wanted him back in Equestria.

Celestia had taken him on as her student when she found him huddled in a dark alleyway during the winter. He was trying to start a fire with his magic, so he could keep warm. But his magic was so strong it blew up the alleyway, taking out part of the building next door. She took him on because of his powerful magic. He saw it as a chance at a better life. For the first time in his life, he thought somebody cared about him.

For a while, things were great. But slowly as time went on, he started to realize that she was keeping him at arms distance. He tried and tried but she just said that she was busy with royal duties whenever he wanted to spend time with her. He would bend over backwards for her just to get her attention. But at some point, he realized that even though he saw her as a mother, she didn’t see him as a son.

It was when he finally gave up trying to gain her acceptance did he realize that she just wasn’t worth the effort of trying to please. He was laying in his bed in his room when he came to this conclusion. She never spent time with him except when she was giving him a lesson or it was at dinner. She seemed to believe the nobles over him. Many of the nobles disliked him just because he wouldn’t stroke their egos or give into their demands. She gave him tasks and tests that he wasn’t ready for, some of them even dangerous, without important information that could have made things a whole lot easier and a whole lot safer. But worst of all was the stress! He was constantly going to the doctor over stress and his blood pressure. He realized that she just wasn’t worth it.

Especially when he overheard her talking to the nobles about how he was just a coping tool for her over the loss of her son. It was public knowledge that Celestia gave birth to a colt some years back and loved him dearly. But naturally the nobles didn’t like this. So they had him kidnapped from his cradle. What happened to him, nobody knew. She searched for him endlessly, but never found him.

As for the nobles behind the kidnapping, she permanently stripped them and their families of their titles, their power, and their wealth and lands. They were begging for forgiveness, sobbing as they were dragged out of her royal court, realizing that they ruined their own lives as well as their families lives, any chance of gaining their wealth back was destroyed when they harmed her child. The nobles needless to say, never tried anything like that again.

But due to this, he realized he was just something that she kept around to make herself feel better, he was just a novelty to her. The best way he could describe the relationship that he had with Celestia was like that of a kid who was always left alone while his parent was away at work or on business trips. He remembered that being a common theme in anime where the main character's parents were working overseas but still sending money to them. Sure, they had good times everyone now and then. But that was about it. She just gave him a roof and food and was friendly to him.

So, from that point on he focused only on his studies. He would finish his apprenticeship under the princess and move on to greener pastures, he could get a good job, start a herd and settle down. But after a while, Celestia quickly noticed the change in his demeanor.

He stopped following her around the castle, he stopped looking for her approval. He looked at her advice skeptically and took it with a grain of salt instead of believing her whole heartedly like he used to. Celestia thought it was a faze at first but quickly grew worried when it went on for months and actually tried to spend time with him and take an interest in what he was doing.

But to Celestia’s shock he kept her at a distance. At meals he would just eat his meal silently and go back to his room or business. She tried to make small talk with him, but he would keep it to a bare minimum.

He caught on to what she was doing. She even lowered his work load when she overheard him talking with the doctor about his stress and how it was affecting his health. She asked him why he never told her of his health problems, but he simply replied with “You never took an interest before, why now?”. She made the excuse that she did care about him, saying that he was precious to her and with the rarity of stallions he was precious, saying that since only one in every ten births was a stallion, she had to make sure he was alright. She was trying to play the caring protector. Just so he could be back under her thumb as the compliant and good little student again.

Eventually she got desperate to the point that she took him to see the mirror. Something he clearly wasn’t ready for. He was guessing she was hoping it would show him a good future that he could only get if he went back to the old him. But instead he was shown a different future. One without her and him as an alicorn. She quickly realized the error and tried to keep him from it.

He already came to terms with the fact that he did not handle things the right way, but what can you freaking expect! He was a kid at the time. She stripped him of everything and tossed him out. Just because she couldn’t control him. That was the problem with most ponies, they feared what they couldn’t control.

But now, after so many years she wants him back. Why? Well simple really. Twilight Sparkle fell in love with human technology, she wanted to take some back with her, so she could integrate it into Equestrian Society. So, Sunset decided to teach her a little bit about it. One of the things she learned about was DNA testing. Twilight found out that such a thing existed when she read through his biology textbook… within an hour.

He explained the whole process of how it worked and how the police used it. Even though she couldn’t make the technology, she managed to create a spell that would do the same thing.
When she took it back to Equestria, everypony was amazed and greatly hailed her for it. She wanted to show the world that it was something reliable. Which it was, considering she spent a month of working on it. She made sure to perfect it.

The way the spell worked was it would work like a DNA test and could confirm if DNA was a match or not. But the other thing that was amazing about it was that the spell would show you an image of who the sample of DNA belonged to and how they currently looked like and tell you if they were alive or not.

So, to prove her spell to the world. She cracked the biggest case in Equestria of trying to find Celestia’s long lost son. The whole thing was done publicly with the whole country gathered and Celestia sitting there on her throne. The spell worked perfectly.

The spell first showed that her son was alive and healthy which made Celestia beam with happiness. The whole country was ecstatic at the thought of having a new prince. Luna was loving the idea of having a new nephew. They waited with breaths held for the image of their rulers’ heir. But that happiness all changed to shock. Because the image that showed up of Celestia’s biological son… Was him.

Sunset Glare was the long-lost son of Celestia.

All of pony kind looked at their ruler, realizing that she had banished her own son. The student that the nobles looked down upon was none-other than the heir to the throne.
Equestrians were very family oriented. The worst thing you could do is betray your own family. It was something that was not easily forgotten or forgiven. Not even the princess was exempt from this. Shining Armor was still dealing with the backlash from the Royal Canterlot Wedding. Celestia was having a PR nightmare. She was no longer viewed as the immortal Goddess that could do no wrong. She was now on a broken pedestal. She made mistakes like everyone else. Now everyone knew it. Princess Luna was enraged by this revelation. Even more so when Celestia had the nerve to say, “Oh Faust what have I done!” After all this time, she comes to this realization now!

He was so caught up in his past that he let himself forget to restrain himself as he slammed a powerful kick to the bag.

*CRACK! RIIIP!*

The human sized punching bag hanging by a chain was torn from the wooden beam on the sealing, the bag itself went flying 10 feet through the air before slamming to the ground.
Despite being a human now, his body still maintained the same strength, speed, and endurance he had as a pony (1).

He was panting hard as he rested for a moment.

His mind wandering to the conversation he had last night with Twilight.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

*Flashback*

Sunset was sitting at home on his couch, looking at the journal that Twilight gave him, more importantly he was looking at the little magical window that appeared over the book with Twilight’s face appearing in it. Twilight had created a spell that would allow them to talk to each other similar to how facetime and video chatting works on cell phones and computers.

He was happy to talk to Twilight face to face. It was nice to be able to have a conversation with her. Most people would have been shocked if they walked into the room and saw him talking to his friend. They would have seen Sunset talking to a very beautiful and young purple anthropomorphic unicorn girl wearing practically nothing.

She only had a skimpy loincloth and chest wraps made of the finest silk that barely covered her big EE cup breasts and her marehood as her loincloth hung onto her wide baby birthing hips. What most people didn’t know was that equestrians were nudists by nature. Only wearing clothes for formal occasions or to display status and wealth.

Sunset couldn’t help but admire her beauty, they had been talking for the last hour and were having a good time until Twilight decided to change the conversation.

“I still can’t believe you managed to solve the mystery of Celestia’s son.” He said, impressed at how Twilight managed to pull it off with her new spell.

“Thank you!” She smiled cheerfully.

But then her smile fell a bit.

“Aren’t you going to ask who her son is?” She asked nervously.

“Not really, it’s not that important to me. But this is a big moment for you. So, go ahead and tell me?” He said, not wanting to ruin her big moment.

She started to sweat out of worry. Knowing Celestia was a very touchy topic when it came to Sunset. She was afraid of how he would react to the news.

“Well… It’s you.” She said.

“...What?” He said not believing it.

“The missing son of Celestia is you. I know this is a lot to take in, but this is a good thing! You and Celestia can finally make amends and-”

“No.” Sunset said firmly, with no emotion in his voice.

“But Sunset, she’s worried about you! The nobles are in an uproar! The entire country is angry at her! They’re demanding you return!” Twilight pleaded.

“I don’t care! It’s still NO!!!” He yelled, snorting angrily.

Twilight had tears in her eye at his reaction. He sighed in exhaustion.

“I’m sorry Twilight. But you know why I will never go back to her.” He sighed putting his hand over his face.

“…I know. I’m sorry.” She said sadly.

“It’s fine.” He replied tiredly.

“You know I would never force you to do anything like that… Right?” She asked worriedly, fidgeting with herself.

“I know Twilight. I know. I’m sorry for yelling at you.” He said feeling bad for the young mare.

“It’s okay. I shouldn’t have been so pushy.” She said with a sad smile.

But before either of them could continue the conversation, the sound of the doors to Twilight’s room were heard opening. The sound of hoof steps could be heard getting closer.

“Twilight, there you are. I need your assistance in getting Sunset Glare to return…” A familiar voice said as it trailed off. A voice that Sunset never wanted to hear again in his life.

Standing next to Twilight was none other than Celestia herself. When she saw Sunset, she paused in shock but immediately her face lit up.

“Sunset! Oh, thank goodness you’re safe! Where are you!” She asked with urgency.

“…”

“Sunset? Are you ok? Please talk to me!” Celestia asked with worry.

“Why?” He demanded.

“W-What?” Celestia asked in confusion.

“Why should I? You never gave a damn about me before. It’s only now after all this time that you check up on me after you threw me away and abandoned me.” Sunset said while leveling a glare at the solar princess. Shocking her by his resentment of her.

“Sunset, please! You don’t understand! I did what was necessary! You were becoming corrupted!” She pleaded.

“Necessary… So, throwing me back on the street with nothing but the clothes on my back when I was just a colt to fend for myself was ‘necessary’.” He growled.

“You were learning forbidden magic! You-”

“I was not being corrupted! I wanted attention! You never wanted anything to do with me! The magic I learned were combat spells, so I could defend my self against the creatures that attacked me on your stupid convoluted quests!” He shouted at the solar princess, shocking her by his anger.

“I can’t tell you how many times I nearly got killed by your stupidity. But when I started doing things my own way, you immediately started panicking when things didn’t go according to your plans. Tell me, what was the purpose of these tests?” He asked mockingly.

“T-They were to help you grow!” She defended desperately.

“Yeah, because sending me to fight a rabid dragon was such a learning experience! You sent me with no guards and no information on what I was supposed to do! You sent me to what would have been my death if I hadn’t learned those spells! I barely made it out by the skin of my teeth!” Sunset shouted in rage.

Celestia’s eyes widened in shock. She had completely forgotten about that. How could she forget that!

“Or what about that mission to retrieve that bucking artifact in the depths of Tartarus!” He was now screaming in rage.

Celestia was even more horrified by the fact that she forgot about this assignment too.

“I sent you because-” She started but was cut-off by Sunset.

“I don’t care what your reasons are! You used me and tossed me to the side like I was nothing to you!” Sunset was now seething.

“I’m so sorry Sunset! I never meant to use you!” Celestia pleaded.

“Don’t lie to me. I heard you talking to the nobles that day.” He said.

“What are you talking about?” She asked in confusion.

“That day when you were talking to the nobles, I overheard you saying that I was nothing more than something to help you cope over the loss of your son.” He said leveling a glare at the princess.

“W-What!” Celestia gasped in horror, not able to believe that he overheard her.

“Yeah, I know.” He said coolly.

“I-I never meant for things to end up like this Sunset, you have to believe me!” Celestia pleaded.

“I don’t.”

“You need to come back to Equestria! I promise you that I will make things right! I will send someone to pick you up.” Celestia pleaded.

“Let me guess, the nobles are in an outrage over the whole thing and the only way to quell them is by me coming back.” He said sarcastically, already knowing the answer.

“Please Sunset! You must see reason! Equestria needs you! I need you!” Celestia pleaded.

“Why?” Sunset asked with cold dead eyes.

“Now that I know you are my child, I want to be your mother and not your teacher, Celestia.” She said softly.

There was a long pause before between the two as Celestia looked at the colt she had abandoned so long ago pleading that he will come back to her.

“You were my mother, you were the only mother I ever knew. And you abandon me without a second thought.” He said, with no emotion whatsoever. No hint of sympathy. Just a sense of finality that filled the solar princess with a deep sense of dread.

“Why would I ever want to go back to you. I did everything I could to be your perfect little tool, which was all you saw me as before. But that was never enough for you was it. No, I had to be like Twilight who is so insecure thanks to you that she goes nuts if she can’t please you. I mean take a look at the whole incident when she used the Want It Need it spell. You were even going to punish her for it, but her friends stepped in.” Sunset explained.

“For you to see me as perfect in your eyes I have to follow your stupid trickster mentor ways. And when I couldn’t you just threw me out and replaced me with her, a yelping dog who will do anything to please you. You never cared about me, never tried to contact me till now. When it turns out that I’m your son that was kidnapped. Suddenly I’m important to you. But you’re not important to me. Not now when I’m this old and no longer need a mother.” He said shattering her hopes.

“Twilight was the key to getting the elements of harmony! What was I supposed to do!” She shouted.

“Your job. Why don’t you get off your fat ass for once and actually do your fucking job and defend your country instead of sending in your useless guards.” He said, making the solar diarchy flinch as if she were struck.

“Sunset I beg you! Don’t do this! I’ll give you whatever you want! Money! Titles! Power! I’ll be the mother that I should have been! You’ll want for nothing! Just give me a chance! I’ll even hand pick a herd worthy of you!” She pleaded in desperation.

“You would just pick mares that were the daughters of the most influential nobles to appease them with an arranged marriage. You would use them to control me and keep me under your thumb. I chose who I love. NOT YOU!” He roared.

“Then Twilight! The Elements of Harmony too! They’ll make excellent wives for you!” Celestia said now grasping at straws by this point.

There was a moment of silence. Sunset’s glare hardened.

“You would throw her to the wolves just to get your way.” Sunset seethed with rage clenching his fist tightly.

Celestia realized what she just said. She quickly turned to Twilight who had a look of pure shock and hurt.

She couldn’t believe that Celestia was trying to marry her and her friends off. Without their permission or consent. Her now broken heart hurt beyond belief, she felt like Celestia had betrayed her.

But at the same time, the thought of getting married to Sunset didn’t sound so bad. He was very handsome, kind hearted, and was easy to get along with. He was also one of her best friends and they had so much in common, she felt he would be the perfect stallion for her. A friend she secretly had a crush on. Being in a herd with Sunset sounded lovely to the mare. But she still wanted a say in the matter!

“You misunderstand! Sunset I’m-”

“No, I understand perfectly. I’m done with you. I was done with you a long time ago.” He said cutting off Celestia, never wanting to have to see the solar diarch ever again.

“S-Sunset. Y-You can’t do this.” Celestia gasped.

“I would rather be motherless then have someone like you as my mother. The fact that your blood runs through my veins sickens me. As you casted me to the side so long ago, I do the same to you. I disown you and your blood Celestia. I hate you.” He said with cold fury.

The feed cut out as the connection ended.

Celestia’s eyes widened in horror. She felt her stomach drop and fell to her knees.

“S-Sunset.” She said as a whisper as tears began spilling from her eyes as she broke down into uncontrollable sobs.

Twilight was saddened by the way things had just gone. She grabbed the journal, but when she did, she saw a little message for her written in the journal.

If you or your friends ever need help. Don’t hesitate to come to me. My home is always open to you and your friends should you ever want to leave Equestria. Even if it’s just to get away from it for a bit or to search for a new life.

“Thank you Sunset.” She whispered, thankful that she still had him as a friend.

But she quickly noticed another message being written.

P.S. Despite what I said. Being in a herd with you sounds lovely.

Twilight blushed madly as she left the room.

“It would seem that you have kept a lot from me sister.” Luna said as she approached her sister, having already heard the conversation.

“What are you talking about Luna?” Celestia asked in between sobs.

“Don’t play dumb sister. We can’t believe thou would send your own student on such convoluted quests. Let alone your own son!” Luna said as she began to slip back into her old way of speech.

“I was trying to help him grow.” Celestia said.

“You were sending a colt to do a mares job! Your job! We can’t believe that thou would be so foolish! You actually sent him on a mission to Tartarus! TARTARUS!” Luna shouted. (2)

“You do the same with the Elements of Harmony! Even when you send the royal guards in to handle the situation, they were completely useless! They’re just a glorified police force at best!” Luna ranted. (3)

“We’ve been at peace for centuries. I let things get slack. It was a mistake.” Celestia admitted.

“That’s no excuse! A military is supposed to always be prepared! Before our banishment we always made sure that they were trained well and were always ready!”

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.” Celestia sobbed.

“You failed him in every way.” Luna said.

“Don’t you think I know that! I just want my son back.” Celestia shouted through tears.

“He obviously doesn’t want you. I can’t blame him either. Our nephew finally has a life he built from scratch. A good life. Why would he want to throw that all away just because the mother who never wanted him comes running back.” Luna replied.

“B-But I need him!” Celestia cried.

“I don’t think you deserve to be a part of his life.” Luna said.

“B-But I can give him everything that he wants!” Celestia cried.

“What can you actually give him at this point that he actually wants? A mother? The same one who threw him away and never once in that time tried to contact him? Who only cares now because the foal who saw her as his mother even when she saw him as nothing but a tool to be used and then thrown away when she didn’t need him anymore. Turns out that he is her son and now after so much time has gone by wants to make things right? No, you made sure that he would never see you that way, you over the years campaigned to kill any idea he had that you would ever love him as your son. And you should be proud that all that effort worked and that he will never see you as his mother again, just like you wanted.” Luna said as she tore into Celestia. Finally breaking the last of her resolve.

Celestia started sobbing again, this time even harder than before. Knowing that what Luna said was the truth.

“But I plan to be there for him unlike you. With or without your consent.” Luna said with a firmness in her voice that let Celestia know that she had no say in the matter.
“We honestly don’t know what to do with you.” Luna sighed as she ran her hand down her face.
Luna loved her sister with all her heart, she really did. But she was not going to let this slide. She loved her sister, that was why she was making sure that Celestia had to face the consequences of her actions, she had to learn.

Luna just prayed that Sunset would be alright.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Sunset just wanted to get the conversation out of his head. He had so much going for him right now and the last thing he needed right now was to let his emotions get to him and ruin it.

Twilight Sparkle, the human version of her that is. Along with Trixie Lulamoon, and the humane 5 were all working on a project that would change the world. Ever since Twilight joined Canterlot High School, she was begging Sunset to teach her how to use magic.

Considering that he was the only one out of their group that had any formal training in magic and that he trained the rest of the humane 6, he was naturally the one she would go to. She had chased him around the school and around town until he finally agreed to teach her. She automatically assumed that he was going to turn her down on training her but if she would have asked him in the first place he would have said yes.

Of course, he wasn’t going to lie, Twilight was extremely cute when she was desperate to learn something new. It was pretty funny when she tackled him to the ground and began covering his face in kisses when he agreed. The girls never let her live that down.

Trixie joined the group a little later when she caught the two using their magic along with the rest of the girls. She wanted to learn magic too. Considering her lifelong dream was to become a world-famous magician it made perfect sense. He agreed but he wasn’t sure if she would even be able to use magic considering she wasn’t able to pony up. But to his surprise she was able to use magic. Twilight and Trixie were naturals at it. But Sunset was always sure to supervise them when they are learning new spells and made sure to teach them all of the safety precautions for when using magic and the like. (4)

That was 6 months ago. Now they were working on something that would change their lives as well as the rest of the world.

About one month ago Twilight’s older brother, Shining Armor had come to visit her and their parents for the holidays. Their parents were out at the time and Twilight never heard him come in. He went to her room to check on her only to find her too focused on practicing her magic to realize that he was standing in the doorway. Watching her as she was levitating objects around her room.

What few people knew was that Shining Armor actually worked for the CIA as a special agent. When he saw this, it was actually not much of a surprise, he was already sent to the town to investigate the weird occurrences that were going on. When he found out what was going on, he explained things to Twilight. She was terrified to tell him what was going on. But she was still very close to her brother and eventually gave in.

Come to find out the government had been watching Sunset for quite some time. Twilight was able to confirm this as she told him where she learned how to use real magic. When she found out that her brother was CIA, she began to panic but thankfully he told her that they were not going to do anything bad to him. Apparently, they were interested in the uses of learning magic and combining it with technology. Something that Twilight was already working on months prior.

Naturally Sunset was worried when he was approached by Shining Armor and was hesitant to trust him or the government. But when they promised him protection and a full ride in college as well as being paid well for his services, he seemed to open up to the idea. Shining explained that the last thing the government wanted was to lose one of the few magic users in existence, let alone the only one with any formal training in it. Trixie was given this offer as well along with Twilight and the rest of the girls as well, since Trixie learning magic more extensively due to her aspirations to become a stage magician and Twilight for her scientific pursuits.

Which led to the project that Twilight had been working on for the last 3 months. The young teen was working on a teleportation machine. So far everything was working. The smaller models she made were complete successes. Now they were working on a bigger model that could transport trucks and things of that size. Naturally the government found this to be very useful as this would allow them to transport supplies and people instantly and easily.

Thanks to Shining Armor’s connections he was able to get a few scientists to help the teens out with their project.

Things were going well with the building of the project. With this Sunset and the girls could go to any college that they wanted as well as get paid for it.

There was just one problem. Ever since the Anon-A-Miss incident that happened just before the friendship games, things were very rocky with the girls. He didn’t trust them. He couldn’t trust them. Not after they turned their backs on him when everyone accused him of revealing their secrets. That was how he met Trixie, when nobody believed him, she came to his defense along with a few others who sided with her and Sunset. Despite the harassment that he was given by others and those who harassed her, she stuck by his side.

Thankfully, it was brought to light who was really behind Anon-A-Miss. Those three little brats, Applebloom, Sweetiebelle, and Scootaloo. But the whole school knew them as the Cutie Mark Crusaders. They caused a whole school to tear itself apart all because they didn’t get a little attention from their sisters.

Sunset, before the whole Anon-A-Miss incident happened, would try to help the three girls out as much as he could. Feeling bad for them since they were new to high school and all, seeing as he knew how it felt to be helpless. He even made sure that none of the school bullies messed with them. This all happened after he was reformed of course.

But when he found out it was the Cutie Mark Crusaders, he immediately stopped helping them, stopped associating with them. They made his life hell. Multiple people had even tried to attack him in the middle of class, he was thankfully able to fight them off. Those who attacked him were charged with assault.

Now the three brats had to deal with the fallout of what they did. Forced to apologize to the whole school, with the possibility of getting a criminal record. Hell, most of the families were filing lawsuits against their families as well as the school. The whole thing was a PR nightmare for Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna who were trying to bring the situation under control. The board of education was breathing down their necks, especially since they did nothing to help Sunset. Basically, throwing him to the wolves because they thought he was going back to his old ways. Due to the school becoming so unruly they had to shut down for a whole month and suspend many of the school’s clubs and teams.

Celestia and Luna learned the hard way that sometimes the worst thing to do, is absolutely nothing. When Celestia found out that it wasn’t him she quickly ran to find him along with Luna but when she did, she found him being attacked by three bullies. She recognized them as members of the football team. They were known for being the biggest and strongest players on the team.

But the fight was not going their way. In fact, they were at his mercy. Sunset had finally had enough of being pushed around, being repeatedly attacked, and being called a demon. In front of her was Swift Brawn who was being lifted in the air by Sunset’s magic that was choking him. As the boy was grasping at his throat, his friends were flung back into the lockers, breaking the lockers and knocking them out.

She saw Sunset’s outstretched hand that was held like it was wrapped around something. His grip tightening, causing the magic to tighten its grip on the bully’s throat. Slowly crushing it. But just as he was about to suffocate, he was slammed into the ground, then the wall, and then the lockers before he fell to the ground in a heap. Knocked out.

Celestia and Luna were too shocked to say anything. They couldn’t say anything. He stared at her for a moment before he walked off. He looked broken. He ignored them as they called out for him desperately.

The three guys that tried to jump him were sent to the hospital. Swift Brawn suffered multiple broken ribs. Broken right leg and his left arm was broken in three places, in addition to his bruised larynx and a concussion. His two accomplices only suffered a few broken ribs and minor concussions. Needless to say, the attacks on Sunset stopped after that.

Celestia couldn’t do anything to him, the area he was in had no cameras, and no one would believe her if she told them that he used magic to beat the crap out of a group of bullies that were trying to beat him up. Then there was the fact that he was defending himself. She couldn’t do anything to him.

The three attackers were expelled from the school. Ever since then, Celestia and Luna were trying to talk to him and apologize but he never gave them the time of day. They knew that if he pressed charges, he could sue the school, he could easily win the case and they would both lose their jobs. They were desperate to set things right, but he didn’t want any of it. With the school gaining a bad PR, they were trying to convince him to join one of the sports clubs or teams due to his athletic abilities. But he saw it as an empty gesture to save their own skins, so he refused.

Same thing for the students. Many tried to apologize, especially after seeing what happened with the bullies. But he would tell them off or just ignore them. The only ones he ever talked to were the students that actually believed him and helped him. Like Vinyl Scratch, Octavia, Bon Bon, Lyra, Derpy, Snips, Snails, Tree Hugger, Zecora, Aloe, Lotus, Vera, and a few others. While that seemed like a lot, that was only a small handful students out of a school that had over 500 students.

After the truth came to light, Applebloom, Sweetiebelle, and Scootaloo were bullied non-stop and even beaten up a couple of times, no matter how much the school threatened punishment or expulsion. But fortunately for them they didn’t have to deal with the bullying for long. The girls were expelled from the school and were now being homeschooled. The three were now forced to suffer the consequences of their actions.

They tried to apologize to the former pony turned human. Many times in fact. But it didn’t matter to him anymore, he refused to forgive them. They nearly sent him over the edge. He almost ended his own life because of their stunt.

The girls or the humane 5 as they called themselves, tried to make it up to him. They tried to be better friends by including him in the group more and being there for him.

Rainbow tried to invite him to all of her games and her clubs she supervised but he told her to fuck off if all she had to give was to show herself off.

Rarity tried to give him the best suit she made with her most expensive thread and even told him whatever he asked of her would be completely free of charge. She even made a new jacket with all of her friends' initials sewn in, including Sunsets. But when she gave it to him he simply threw it away telling her he didn’t need her bribes from her to get her way and stormed out of her shop.

Applejack who was now homeschooling her little sister along with Rarity as well made the girls write a letter of apology to him and deliver it in person. She and her family even made a feast for him in hopes he would forgive them, all he did was tear up the letter in front of them and told her now that he’s out of the picture she and her sister could spend all the time they want now without him.

Fluttershy visited his home once and was standing at his front door, she asked if she could talk to him to show how sorry she was, all she got was Sunset telling her to get lost and that he didn’t need a girl as cruel as her to be within his vicinity and slammed the door in her face. She didn’t come out of her house for a few days after that.

Pinkie Pie was the worst, or in this case the most desperate out of everyone to make the young stallion turned human forgive her. She tried to throw him parties but he never bothered to show up. She tried showering him with apology gifts but he either returned them or threw them away. She then tried to force feed him her baked goods in hopes he would forgive her, but was then shoved away by the angry young man and threatened to file a restraining order on her if this keeps up.

Telling her he could never call a girl as insane as her his friend if all she could do was constantly harass him to get her way. After that Pinkie didn’t bother him for a while, she never really was the same after that either. Nor did the girls see her for a couple weeks after but eventually convinced her to hang out with them.

Ever since then Sunset couldn’t bring himself to trust or forgive any of them. He honestly didn’t know what to do with them now that it was over, it hurt to think about it.

Even at the friendship games it was tense with the girls but thankfully he met Twilight there who proved to be one of his best friends. Poor thing was pushed so hard that he was surprised she never snapped before. The whole thing started because of the so called ‘Friendship Games’ that the stupid bitch Principal Cinch was so damn hell bent on winning. It was just a bunch of games! Yet she threatened Twilight’s future.

Twilight was about to have a nervous breakdown. Even after the whole incident was over. Thankfully Twilight was able to calm down. And since then thanks to Sunset and the others, she’s been going to therapy and is on antidepressants which have been helping, but she still has panic attacks when things get too overwhelming for her. But she’s doing much better now.

He was amazed by the fact that he was able to transform into an angelic/phoenix like form. Something Twilight made sure to study very thoroughly.

As for Principal Cinch, parents of the students were furious about the mistreatment of their children, how they were blackmailed by her, and how badly they were pressured as well as the fact that they were put in danger because of her. Lawsuits hit the Crystal Prep High School like a tidal wave. Twilight’s father was a very prominent lawyer himself who filed his own lawsuit against his daughter’s former school. Cinch’s entire reputation that she held near and dear to her was stripped from her and dragged through the mud. She was fired and blacklisted from working anywhere in the school district. No one would hire someone like her to teach their kids or run a school.

Considering how most of the staff of Crystal Prep acted like her and pressured the students except for a handful of staff like Cadence, the school was being reviewed by the school board. They are still deciding if the school is worth saving or should be shut down considering that Crystal Prep is a private school that has lost many of its sponsors and benefactors. If it does stay open, it will be turned into a public school with a whole new staff working the place.

Sunset shook his head, getting rid of his thoughts. He had to stay focused. He popped his neck a little and went to get cleaned up and ready to work on the thing that would forever change his life. And change his life it would.

*Canterlot Highschool*

Sunset and the girls were working on the teleporter in a large garage like room that was part of the school’s old metal shop building that was no longer used. The girls were working on some of the machines with Twilight instructing them on what to do, while Sunset and Trixie were working on the magical aspects of the machine. It was thundering and raining heavily outside so most of the outdoor after school activities were canceled for the day. Leaving them with free time to work on the project.

4 scientists were assigned to help them with the project with Shining Armor supervising the whole thing. One of them was taking notes as Sunset explained how the machine works by gathering magic then opening a portal which sends the item or person to the location of their choosing, if things are done right.

The machine was a huge platform and was 60 feet by 50 feet. In the middle of the platform was a large ring that was 40 feet tall and just as wide. On the sides of the platform were two large generators. One for magic and one for electricity.

During his time at Canterlot High he decided to keep a digital record of all his magical research and studies. He created a Flash Drive with most of his magical knowledge on it. He made an ‘edited’ copy of it for the government. He wasn’t going to give away everything he knew for free. But it was enough to help the Scientist get the gist of how things worked and what they needed to work on and full instructions on how to build and even recreate the teleporter.

Amazingly after months of working on the project, they were very close to finishing it. Being done for the day, they sat at a table as they all ate their lunch, talking amongst each other.

“So, you’re saying the spell that you put on the machine will automatically record and film the person or object that is teleported? Even if the machine is no longer working?” Shining Armor asked his little sister, amazed at her ingenuity.

“Yep, Sunset taught me the spell himself. That way when we get to the testing phase, we can broadcast the whole thing on anything. Of course, you’ll be in control of it and what it’s broadcasted on.” Twilight explained happily.

“That’s great, but aren’t spells like formulas? Can’t things go wrong if you don’t do the spell right?” Shining asked.

“Yeah but in most cases the spell just fizzles out or the spell is altered in an unexpected way. But when you practice enough, the spells become second nature to perform, kind of like the telekinesis spell.” Sunset explained as he took a bite of his pizza.

“I’ll have you know that I know what I’m doing, I may have just learned this spell, but I practiced it more than enough. I’m not going to screw up!” Twilight pouted.

“Don’t worry, it’s a pretty simple spell, if it does go wrong it won’t hurt anyone.” Sunset explained.

“That’s a relief.” One of the scientists said.

“At least we know Twilight won’t blow us up.” Trixie joked causing Twilight to pout only for her to laugh along with everyone else, knowing she didn’t mean anything by it.

They sat there eating for a while in silence with nothing but the sound of thunder echoing loudly in the background as Shining Armor and the scientists went back to work on the machine. Leaving Sunset alone with the humane six and Trixie. The air was so thick with tension that you could cut it with a knife. Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack glanced at each other tensely. They all stared at Sunset, the friend that they betrayed.

Sunset just sat there eating quietly, hoping he can just finish his food and get home and not have to talk to them. But the girls had other ideas.

“So darling, what have you been up to? We’ve hardly seen you over the past months.” Rarity asked nervously.

“Been busy.” He replied simply.

“Yeah, well… Why don’t you tell us how things have been going for you?” Rainbow Dash asked nervously.

“Things are going good.” He said, not giving much more than that. Making Dash give a sigh of frustration.

“We’ve been really worried about you.” Fluttershy whispered timidly.

“I’m sure you all have.” Sunset remarked sarcastically.

“We do worry about you!” Pinkie Pie said desperately trying to convince Sunset.

“Whatever you say.” He said tiredly.

“It’s the truth. We care about ya sugar cube.” Applejack said, trying to get through to him.

“We’re really sorry ok! Can’t you just give us a chance to prove it!” Rainbow Dash said letting her anger get the best of her.

“You never gave me a chance. Why should I give you something that you never had the courtesy to give me?” He said making her and the rest of the girls reel back like they were struck.

“I have to agree with Sunset. You never gave him a chance to tell his side of the story.” Trixie said. Which Twilight nodded in agreement.

“Not helping.” Rainbow retorted.

“We made a mistake, we’re trying to make things right darling. Why won’t you just give us that chance?” Rarity pleaded.

“Because you never listened to me when I needed you most. Your sisters were behind the whole damn thing! I never did anything to them, even before I was reformed. I even watched out for them and protected them from bullies!” Sunset shouted angrily at them as the crashing of the thunder grew louder.

The girls flinched, knowing he was right.

“You want me to forget about how you all abandoned me and treated me like trash. Like you Dash, what was that you said? ‘Go back to hell you demon’. Yeah, really feeling the love.” He said making Rainbow Dash shrink back.

“What about how you said I was like family to you, Applejack? That was a lie.” He said, making the mare looking down in shame.

“Pinkie Pie, you called me a no-good friend secret stealer and treated me like I was a criminal. Yet you think a party will fix it. It doesn’t.” He explained making the pink haired girl’s hair go straight as her eyes welled up with tears.

“Rarity, you spread gossip about me and didn’t even bother to listen to my side of things. You just added fuel to the fire and helped destroy my reputation. Yet here you are begging me to listen to your side of things. I don’t think so.” He said, making Rarity tear up because she knew it was the truth. She tried to reply but he didn’t give her a chance.

“Fluttershy, you may not have actively done anything directly to me, but that’s the problem. You did nothing. You just followed the crowd. All I wanted was a chance, I begged you for a chance to explain… A chance none of you ever gave me, and here you are now begging me for the same chance you never gave me.” He said with a sigh. The timid animal lover was silently crying.

The girls all sat there in shame and regret, what made it worse was that he wasn’t even yelling. He was talking in a calm, yet very tired voice. Which seemed to make it much worse.

“I really wish things could go back to the way they were, but now I’m always going to have to look over my shoulder around you girls.” He said sadly.

“Dammit! You can trust us Sunset! Please!” Dash pleaded in frustration.

“Our sisters have already been punished! What more do ya want?” Applejack said, her stubbornness showing.

“I want you to leave me alone.” He said as he got up and tossed his food into the trash, grabbed his backpack, and tried to make his way to the exit. Only to be stopped by Rainbow Dash who was standing in his way.

“Move.” He ordered.

“No.” Dash glared back.

“Rainbow, this is not helping. Just leave him alone.” Twilight said, hoping to avoid a fight.

“No! I’m tired of this! We’ve been trying to apologize to him for months, but he wants nothing to do with us! I’m fed up with his attitude!” She growled angrily as Shining Armor came over to see what the commotion was all about.

“What’s going on?” He asked.

“Rainbow’s upset that Sunset won’t forgive them for the whole Anon-A-Miss incident.” Twilight explained.

“He probably thinks that they’re trying to make up with him because of the other Twilight, the pony princess one. She was furious at them. She did chew them out royally. No pun intended.” Trixie said, remembering how enraged Twilight was after she came through the portal just after the friendship games. Twilight thanked her though for being there for Sunset when he needed her the most.

“I do.” Sunset said, making the girls feel worse.

“Listen, everyone just needs to calm down, I’m sure there’s a peaceful solution we can do to solve this.” Shining Armor said knowing about the incident from his sister.

“I…I just want things to go back to the way they were.” Fluttershy said worryingly as the lightning crashed and the thunder boomed much closer than last time. Terrifying the animal lover.

“Well, they can’t.” Sunset said as he lifted Rainbow with his magic and moved her out of his way.

“What the hell! Let me go you bastard!” Rainbow shouted before he granted her wish. Letting her fall flat on her butt.

“Agh! You know what, that’s it! Leave! See if I care!” She shouted, not realizing that she would immediately regret those words.

At that moment lightning struck the building. The teleporter kicked on with a loud crackling of magic. Purple and Blue wisps of energy swirled around in the giant ring of the machine as it began to glow brightly, and in a matter of seconds a loud crack reverberated throughout the school shattering the windows and dazing everyone. It became brighter and brighter until the machine formed a vortex.

“Oh shit.” Was the only thing Sunset could think to say.

Immediately the portal began to suck in everything, sending everything flying everywhere and into everyone. Everyone was grabbing on to something to keep from being pulled in.

Sunset saw Trixie and Twilight being pulled towards the portal, he quickly dove for the two and grabbed the two of them by their wrists.

Unfortunately, no one had a hold of Sunset. As he was being dragged forward, Shining managed to grab him by his ankle.

“HOLD ON!” Shining Armor screamed.

Sunset was holding on to the two screaming girls as best as he could. Unfortunately, Shining Armor felt his grip slowly slipping until eventually the young man slipped out of his grasp to his horror.

“NO!!” Shining Armor screamed as he saw his baby sister and her two friends getting sucked into the portal.

As the three of them flew through the air towards the portal, Sunset knew they weren’t going to escape. So, he did the only thing that he could do. He pulled the girls towards him and wrapped his arms around them in an attempt to shield them as best as he could.

The three students screamed at the top of their lungs as they went through the portal. Magic whipped around the room for a few seconds before the whole machine short circuit and shut down. The machine was smoking and some of the circuits were fried as it crackled and sputtered.

Everyone stared at the portal, ignoring the trashed room. Looks of horror and shock were plastered on each of their faces.

Sunset Glare, Trixie Lulamoon, and Twilight Sparkle were gone. But little did they know that the whole thing was broadcasted to the whole world. Sunset, Trixie, and Twilight were now starting a very long journey that would be broadcasted to the world. Unfortunately for the government, there was no way to stop the broadcast.

The world was going to see something that would be told for generations.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

*Meanwhile in Another Universe*

Wonder Woman looked down at the world below from the window of her room in the Watch Tower. She could only think of how it all came to this. All the men in her life, all the men in the world were dead, even the Atlanteans who lived under the sea were hit by the virus. All thanks to her adoptive sister Aresia. She had taken the teachings of the Amazon’s way too far. Now, because of her and her virus, every man on earth was dead. She laid her head against the cold metal of the windowsill as tears rolled down her cheek.

True there were bad men in the world, but there were more good men then there were bad. It took her now to realize it. Despite what everyone thought. She didn’t hate men. But her Amazon upbringing did make her very wary around them.

Now they were dead, they were all dead. Buce, Clark, J’onn, Barry, John, all of them. Her closest friends were gone forever, and she was responsible.

Everyone told her it’s not her fault and that she did her best to stop the virus and her adoptive sister. But those words did little to make her feel better. The world now despised her and her people. The women of the world were screaming for justice and vengeance. She couldn’t blame them, they have every right to be.

She could only sit in her room and look out her window at the world below.

“You can’t blame yourself.” Black Canary said walking through the amazons doorway.

“But it is my fault! If I had stopped Aresia this wouldn’t have happened! It was my people’s very teachings that caused this.” She said as she cried.

“But you did everything in your power to try and stop her. It’s not your fault Diana.” Dinah tried to console her.

“Even if it wasn’t my fault, that still won’t bring them back.” Diana cried.

“You did everything you could Diana, even if people don’t believe that. The members of the Justice League are here for you.” Barbara Gordon said as she walked into the room hearing their conversation outside.

Wonder Woman felt horribly guilty for Barbara losing her father. Commissioner James “Jim” Gordon was a good man. One of the few people Bruce ever trusted.

“No matter what, you're still our friend. We all love you Diana.” Barbara said with a gentle smile.

Diana couldn’t control herself as she cried even harder than before. She found herself being hugged by Barbara and Dinah. They stayed like that for what felt like forever. Eventually she managed to calm down.

“The world's governments and law enforcement have just got back to working, but just barely. We still have a lot of work to do, so let’s not lose hope just yet Diana.” Barbara smiled at the Amazon.

“You’re right.” Wonder Woman answered.

She would do whatever it takes to make things right, as still acting princess of Themyscira it was her responsibility.

But sadly, she didn’t think that would be enough. They were still dealing with the backlash from Aresia’s actions. One unexpected result was that Aresia managed to gain a small, yet significant group of followers that believed that the world would be much better off without men. They were causing riots and occasionally raided the odd bank, lab, or military installation.

Though their numbers were small, they were a dangerous threat. But at least they only popped up rarely from time to time. Most of those who attacked what they called ‘male sympathizers’ found themselves greatly outnumbered and were usually beaten to death, with most of the law enforcement just sitting back and watching the mob deliver their own version of justice and revenge as they got revenge on those who took their loved ones from them.

But to make matters worse was that some of the Amazons of Themyscira who were secretly working with Aresia left their island and joined her. This number of Amazons that joined Aresia was somewhere between a quarter to one third of the entire Amazon population. Now the world wanted the Amazons dead and worse.

As for some of the league's surviving sidekicks, some were either devastated from the pandemic or angry at the league for failing not just them but their mentors. Princess Tula retreated back to Atlantis to aid queen Mera in managing the kingdom and helping her through her grief over the loss of her husband and her son. Many of their subjects were enraged at the amazons and were currently threatening war with her people.

Kara had remained strong in the face of the outbreak and did everything she could to maintain order the past few months. Diana was proud of her resolve, she reminded her a lot of Clark along with her determination to not let the rest of society fall into chaos from this disaster and held much respect for her. But one day at the Watchtower she overheard the poor girl crying her eyes out over the loss of her only family.

Diana comforted her and the young Kryptonian didn’t blame her for her failure; she and the others were aware of her and Shayeras effort. Dinah talked with her later, offering her a shoulder to cry on whenever she needed to get something off her chest, or just needed a friend. The young woman was grateful and ever since then has occasionally talked with her or the amazon herself and has shown a brighter attitude.

As for Barbara she was at first devastated when her father and mentor died, and when Dick and Alfred followed she was devastated. She cried for days after that and hardly left the space station, the only ones left were Katherine and Harper.

Kate was doing her best to keep Gotham together thanks to the power vacuum from the pandemic, and Harper hasn’t been heard from in the past few weeks. Soon after the young woman dried her tears and focused all of her resources in finding a cure to this plague while helping the league pick up the pieces and try to find and recruit anyone with extraordinary skills to refill their missing ranks, but so far it had been months and found no one interested thanks to their tainted reputation.

But the worst of all the gods abandoned the amazons. Zeus himself stripped all the Amazon’s of their powers. Even their eternal youth was taken. Though they still looked young, they would now age just as normally as anyone would. They were now mortal. For those who had lived thousands of years, they now have to come to terms with the fact that at best they would live for another fifty to sixty years and enjoy what youth they had left.

Sure, they may physically be in their 20’s right now, but how long before they begin to feel the aches and pains of old age begin to set in? 10? 20? Maybe even 30 years if they were very lucky before they aged too much to even be able to move around. They would no longer have the beauty and strength they prided themselves on.

Then there is the fact that their fighting abilities were now useless. All the centuries of training and experience in ancient combat was for nothing. Yeah, they were skilled in sword fighting and other melee weaponry but in today’s modern society those skills were useless without their powers. They would be easily gunned down considering they were unable to block bullets and such projectiles without their powers. Their bodies were not fast enough to see and react in time to block the bullets. Even if they did manage to block a bullet, they would just be overwhelmed by a barrage of gunfire. (5)

The only one spared from this punishment was Diana herself. Being allowed to keep her powers due to her trying everything in her power to stop Aresia. But the others were not spared, not even her mother. Zeus stripped them of all protection they once had by the gods as well as their blessings claiming them responsible for allowing her to spread the virus.

Due to no longer being under the protection of the gods, Wonder Woman was able to visit Themyscira any time she wanted. Her banishment was null and void. She was able to see the state of the island after her and Hawkgirl's failed mission against the rogue amazon.

With their blessings stripped, the island was no longer a paradise like it used to be. The land was no longer sprouting crops all year round without having to work as Demeter took her blessing away, angered that there would be no new life on earth. The amazons were forced to work the land and considering they angered the gods, they were lucky that it was yielding anything.

They tried their hand at fishing in the sea but that proved to be disastrous. Any time they tried to fish from the ocean it proved horrible. If they were lucky, they would get nothing, but in most cases the waters would begin to grow violent and smash any ships that tried to make their way out to deeper waters. Poseidon having taken away his blessing of the sea from them since the virus killed all the men of Atlantis.

Athena and Artemis were forced to take away their blessings as well. Despite their protests and outrage at being forced to do so, they quickly realized that they had no say in the matter considering their father Zeus was ready to wipe out the amazons completely or worse, they immediately complied.

Athena was forced into taking away their enhanced intellect. Any knowledge they wanted, they would now have to work for it like anyone else. Artemis was forced to take away their enhanced senses as well as their affinity with animals. They were no longer able to hunt like they were before. Hermes stripped them of their speed. Zeus stripped away their accelerated healing, enhanced strength, immunity to disease, and immortality. Hestia took away their resistances to damage. Aphrodite stripped them of eternal youth, stripping them of their beauty. Though they still maintained their beauty, it would eventually be gone with age.

Even though Aresia was on the run, she and the amazons that joined her were stripped of their abilities too. Making them mortal as well.

When Queen Hippolyta begged the gods to reconsider, they told her that she and the Amazons would not be given any mercy. They told her that their blessings were stripped from them because she could have prevented this whole thing if she would have told her about the ship captain that saved her life. A man who gave his life to safe hers. Then her views of mankind would have changed. Instead she decided to add more fuel to the fire, teaching her to hate men and despise them.

It was scary, knowing that her mother would eventually grow old and die one day. The friends she knew for centuries, even thousands of years, would eventually pass on while she still lived. She was scared. Would she eventually be all alone? She’s outlived many before, it was just a fact of life for her. But she at least had her home and those she looked at as family that would be around forever to comfort her. Or at least that’s what she thought for the longest time.

Diana was brought out of her thoughts as the Watch Tower’s alarms went off as she looked and the others looked at the screens. They saw a massive gathering of women. It looked like another riot was breaking out in the middle of city square in Metropolis.

“It looks like we’re needed again.” Wonder Woman said as they got ready.

“Our work is never done.” Black Canary replied as she and Wonder Woman along with Super Girl, made their way to the Javelin and flew down to earth.

When they got down to Metropolis City Square, they saw a mob of women screaming and shouting, some were holding up signs while a few apparently had either a blade, a hammer or whatever object they could find. They looked and saw that they were surrounding a smaller group of women, all of whom were supporters of Aresia. There were even two Amazons amongst them from what Diana could recognize.

They approached the mob cautiously while the Amazon princess stayed in front steeling her resolve to aid her sisters who’ve now lost their way.

“Everyone stop! Look at what you’re doing!” Black Canary shouted at the mob who was attacking and beating up Aresia’s followers.

“Fuck you! They’re responsible for the deaths of our loved ones!” One woman shouted in anger.

“They deserve to die!” Another shouted.

“You are no better than them, you let them do this to us!”

“The league and my family are dead because of these two, they need to pay.” Added another.

The air was filled with more shouts and screams for justice and revenge as the mob grew more and more restless, Dinah knew if something wasn’t done soon it was going to get ugly.

“Please, I know this is a trying time everyone. But you can’t just stoop to such madness we need to band together, not tear each other like rabid animals.” Wonder Woman said as she tried to calm the crowd down.

“Like you give a damn! My father is dead because of you!” One teen girl shouted.

“We’re all dead anyway! We have no way to reproduce! What do you expect! For some man to drop out of the sky!” Another woman shouted.

As she said these words a portal opened in clear view of everyone, flinging three teens out of it.

At that moment, a loud cracking sound emitted through the city just as a vortex opened up in front of them. A young man who was holding two young ladies the same age as him, were hurled out of the portal. They hit the ground hard and were sent tumbling hard for 30 feet until he slid to a stop. Still holding the two girls on top of him as he tried to cushion the fall with his magic.

The two girls who were holding on to him for dear life finally let go groaning at the impact and quickly checked on their friend.

“Oh my gosh, Sunset are you okay?!” Twilight asked with worry.

“Please, speak to us!” Trixie said with worry as they both got off of him.

“That definitely hurt.” He groaned in pain as he managed to slowly stand up only to feel more pain.

Everyone just watched in shock. In front of them was what was probably the only living male on the planet.

He stood at 5’10” with a muscular build. He wore a pair of black jeans with black combat boots along with a red t-shirt and a heavy black leather biker jacket with a symbol of a half orange, half red sun on the back of it.

What stood out the most was his physical features. His skin was a bright yellow pastel color. While his long hair was red with bright golden streaks that reminded them of a setting sun that reached down to his shoulders. His eyes were a sapphire blue that was so bright they almost swore they were glowing.

The two girls were just the same.

One of the girls’ skin was a light blue color and her eyes were a beautiful shade of lilac while her hair was silver and so long that it went down to her waist. She wore a white shirt underneath her blue hoodie and wore a purple skirt with a symbol of a wand laying on a crescent moon. Topping her outfit off was a pair of knee-high boots.

The other girl wore a large white lab coat over her school uniform and dress shoes. Her hair was a very dark shade of purple with a single streak of bright pink going through it, which was tied up in a messy bun. Her skin was a shade of purple. Her skirt had a symbol of a bright pink star with 6 tiny white stars around. She wore a pair of glasses that gave her a nerdy yet attractive look.

All three teens were covered in scrapes and bruises from being sucked into the portal and dropped out of it.

The three teens looked around and grabbed their backpacks that managed to get sucked in along with them and put them on.

“Where are we?” Twilight asked seeing the crowd.

“Did we get sent to Comic-Con? Because, I think I see Wonder Woman.” Trixie asked, seeing the three heroes.

“I’m surprised we’re even alive.” He replied as he dusted himself off. But he quickly noticed that there was something very strange going on.

He saw the crowd of women watching him intently, almost like he was some kind of god, which began to put him on edge.

“Uh, just a magic trick gone wrong folks. That’s all.” He said nervously as he and the girls began to walk away hoping to figure out where they are.

“Wait!” Someone shouted.

They all turned to the three women that looked like they were cosplaying as members of the Justice League. That is until the one dressed as Wonder Woman flew up to them.

“Are you really a man?” She asked as she hovered in front of the trio.

The three high schoolers went slack jaw at seeing this woman fly.

Sunset slowly began stepping away from her, staring at her two partners and back to her. As he slowly realized where the teleporter had sent them.

None of them saw the plain clothed amazon, one of the ones that had joined Aresia hidden in the crowd, she pulled out a knife from her person and crept slowly behind the three league members, ready to strike at her target and when she got close enough, she lunged at him.

“DIE!” She screamed as she lunged at him with the knife.

“No!” Wonder Woman screamed but it was too late.

“Agh!” Sunset shouted in pain.

The knife went into his side. The rogue amazon smirked when she saw him hunch over. But what she didn’t know was that Sunset was an avid dirt biker. His biker jacket was heavy duty with plates inside the lining of the jacket to provide for extra protection in case of a crash. Only, the tip of the knife managed to get through. Just enough to draw some blood.

The amazon quickly realized that something was wrong when she was flung back by a glowing blue aura. The last thing she saw was the boy that she tried to kill with his hand outstretched towards her as she was flung through the glass window of a store. Everything went black as she landed neck first on the edge of a glass display case. Her neck snapping, severing her spinal cord, ending her life instantly.

Sunset was unaware of his assailant’s fate as he lost sight of her when she was sent into the building. He was too focused on getting away. He quickly grabbed Twilight and Trixie by the wrists and teleported away.

“WAIT!” Black Canary cried out but it was too late. The teens were gone. Now they had to deal with an angry mob.

“You’re behind this!” One of the mob goers screamed in anger, pointing at Wonder Woman. Even though this wasn’t true. Many people around the world aside from the Justice League believed that Wonder Woman was in league with Aresia despite this not being the case.

“No please! We are here to help!” Wonder Woman protested. But she quickly saw that there was no point in arguing with the crowd as they closed in on the three, Black Canary and Supergirl readying to defend themselves. But one thing was running through Diana's mind at the moment, she had to find those kids.

That boy was possibly the only hope the world had. She didn’t know whether he was immune to the virus or not, but she was going to find out. But most of all, she wasn’t going to let anything happen to them.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

A bright flash of light nearly blinded everyone. The three teens appeared in front of a large building. Sunset stumbled forward as he clutched his side in pain. Blood seeping through his jacket and onto his hand.

The two girls both felt like they were going to be sick from the teleportation spell. But they managed to keep their lunch down as they saw their friend in trouble as he leaned up against the wall of the building.

“Sunset, are you okay!” Twilight asked with worry.

“I think so, the cut is shallow, but it still hurts.” Sunset said as he checked the cut feeling a minor puncture wound.

“That bitch tried to kill you!” Trixie shouted angrily.

“I know… I know.” He said, still in shock about the whole situation.

“Was that woman dressed like Wonder Woman really flying?” Twilight asked, still not able to believe what happened.

“I think so.” Trixie answered.

“Yeah, she was.” Sunset said, still trying to wrap his head around what he saw.

“Did we end up on some kind of movie set?” Trixie asked, confused and exhausted over the whole ordeal.

“I’m not sure, but let’s focus on finding out where we are.” Sunset said, trying to gain his bearings.

“Excuse me? Do you need some help?” Someone asked, drawing the teens out of their thoughts.

“Y-Yeah, our friend’s been stabbed.” Twilight answered. Noticing the person in front of them was wearing a nurse’s scrub.

The teens quickly realized that they were standing in front of a hospital that read ‘Metropolis General Hospital’ as they looked up at the building in front of them.

Wait a minute… He thought before the pain from the wound distracted him from thinking any further about the sign.

“Don’t worry, we’ll get you some help-O-Oh my God!” She said when she saw the young man in front of her.

“What?” He asked. Not liking how the nurse was looking at him. But to be fair, all three of them were bruised and scraped up pretty badly from the machine, not to mention his stab wound. Maybe this was her first day.

“N-Nothing. Let’s… let’s get you three patched up.” She smiled nervously.

The nurse quickly called for a stretcher for Sunset much to his chagrin. The three of them were taken into the E.R. quickly.

*Olympus*

Zeus silently glared at his two daughters, Artemis and Athena as they stood before him in fear and shame.

“Father this was-”

“SILENCE!” Zeus bellowed, cutting off Athena.

“HOW COULD YOU LET THIS HAPPEN!!!” He roared with rage making his daughters shake in fear.

“Father, we didn’t know this would happen. We didn’t think one of our Amazons would ever do such a thing.” Artemis said.

“It’s true father. We would have stopped her had we known.” Athena added.

“Really now? Did it not occur to you that this might happen considering the teachings you gave to the Amazons, that they would take it to such an extreme and logical conclusion!” Zeus seethed.

The two goddesses could not look their father in the eye.

“Now because of you the world is in turmoil, you have not only doomed earth. BUT YOU HAVE DOOMED US ALL AS WELL!” Zeus bellowed at the end.

All of the other gathered gods looked at their ruler in shock.

“W-What do you mean father?” Athena asked, fearing the answer.

“It goes without saying that with no men around, the population of the world cannot reproduce and will eventually die off completely, thus leading to the extinction of the human race. What will kill us, is the fact that there will be no one to believe in us! Without the mortals around, no one will even know we existed. We may not be worshipped like we were in the old days, but everyone knows who we are. But without them we will fade away.” He explained.

All the gods and goddesses gained looks of horror.

“What have you done!” Poseidon bellowed in rage. Having lost many of his favored people as well. This new revelation brought his rage to a whole new level.

“Without anyone to practice the domains we rule over we will also be weakened. A good example would be the fact that most of your power is gone. While many women do hunt, most hunters are usually men, you lost most of your power as a god when they died. You just haven’t realized it because you haven’t felt the effects yet since you are in Olympus.” Zeus explained.

“WHAT!!!” Artemis couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

“Karma at its finest.” Ares said as he smirked darkly.

“This affects all of us too Ares, if there are no humans left, then there can be no wars.” Poseidon warned the god of war who scowled in anger at the fact that he was right.

“Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t wipe out Themyscira.” Zeus said as his eyes glowed white with rage.

“Father please!” Artemis pleaded.

“Many good men have died because of Aresia. Those who truly loved and cared for the woman in their lives are now dead because of her. Many of them were driven to insanity and killed themselves. Fathers, brothers, sons, friends, lovers, husbands, grandfathers, those who truly wanted nothing but a happy life with their loved ones were taken away from them. Not even the newborns were spared” Aphrodite glared at the two goddesses in anger.

“Is there nothing we can do?” Athena pleaded.

“There may be.” Hecate said, immediately getting Zeus and the other gods and goddesses.
“What have you seen?” Zeus asked.

“I see a young but weary stallion with two girls who care for him deeply. His heart is filled with sadness and hurt from betrayal that he’s suffered throughout his life. His trust was shattered, and he has grown tired and merely wishes to live peacefully but the betrayal has awoken a darkness in him. He’s our only hope of saving the world. He must be the father to this world if we are to survive.” Hecate explained.

“Stallion?” Ares asked with a raised eyebrow.

“Unicorn to be precise.” She added.

“A horse is going to be the father of humanity? I saw something very similar in Tijuana once.” Ares remarked sarcastically.

“He’s in human form.” Hecate said.

“See father! Hope is not lost yet! You don’t have to kill the amazons!” Athena said as she hoped this would appease her father enough to calm his anger.

“But there is a problem. From what I have seen in his mind, he’s going to do everything in his power to get his friends and himself back to their world.” Hecate said.

“So? We just keep him here, he can’t defy the will of the gods.” Artemis added firmly. Hoping to see if they could salvage this.

“If he were from this universe then you would be right.” Hecate said, shocking some of the gods.

“What do you mean?” Artemis asked.

“If he’s from another universe, then we have absolutely no say over him. Our powers can’t affect him in any way, the only thing we can do is if we managed to make a pact with him in which he could ask for anything in return. He can refuse the deal and there is no way that we can trick him on it either. It has to be done openly, we can’t disguise ourselves, deceive him, or force him against his will in any way or it won’t work. Same goes for the girls. They are beyond our influence.” Zeus replied, seething in rage at the turn of events.

He knows that if the boy leaves this world or finds a way home then they were fucked. They had to find a way to keep him here.

“What?!” Athena and Artemis said as they realized in horror the true magnitude of the situation that they were in.

“So basically, we have the world’s only hope and we can’t do anything to control him or his friend and to top it off, he’s going to try and get them all home no matter what? And we can’t do anything to stop him?” Ares asked. Not liking how they had no control over the three teens at all.

“That is exactly what I’m saying.” Zeus said as he thought about the turn of events.The worst part was that the other gods from other pantheons would be going after the boy now for the same reasons as them.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

*Hospital*

The girls were having their cuts and bruises cleaned and bandaged as they were lying in the ER with Sunset who was receiving more extensive treatment due to his stab wound. The three were laying next to each other in separate beds in the ER.

The doctors were running series after series of tests on Sunset. He knew they were going to a lot of tests. But this seemed a little excessive. They kept telling him that they needed more tests. Even now, the three still noticed that there were no male staff or patients. What made them more nervous was when they saw the police standing guard outside the door.

Right now, a nurse was drawing more blood from Sunset as a doctor was asking him questions, the other nurses were working on Trixie and Twilight, drawing blood from them as well. They had already drawn blood from Sunset and were testing it. But they claimed they were just being thorough.

“So, you three are saying that these are your natural skin and hair colors?” The doctor asked, perplexed which the three nodded. The doctor stared at them for a moment, trying to come to terms with the new information.

“Are you on any medications?” The doctor then asked the boy.

“Yeah.” Sunset answered showing her the bottles of medication that were in his jacket.

The doctor read the bottles carefully before handing them back to him.

“You suffer from high blood pressure and depression.” She stated, knowing what the medicines were for.

“Anxiety too.” Sunset added.

“You look pretty young and fit to be having high blood pressure.” One of the nurses said, noticing his rock-hard abs.

“Life is pretty stressful.” Sunset said with a shrug.

“We’ll be sure to run some more tests. Just to make sure you’re alright.” The doctor replied as she continued her examination.

“You were pretty lucky. Your jacket managed to block most of the blade. The blade only managed to penetrate half an inch into your side. You won’t need stitches.” The doctor said as she placed a bandage on his side.

“I still can’t believe that she tried to stab you. Fucking amazons.” The other nurse said, muttering the last part. Confusing the teens.

Twilight was looking around when her vision landed on something that caught her attention. She saw multiple posters of superheroes. Mainly those of the Justice League.

“Cool posters.” Twilight said. She knew it wasn’t uncommon to have things like this in hospitals, it helped to calm children down when they were brought in.

“Yeah, everyone is a fan of the Justice League… I still can’t believe so many of them are dead.” The doctor said with a forlorn expression on her face.

“What are you talking about?” Trixie asked, confused.

“Have you all been living under a rock? The virus that amazon bitch Aresia unleashed killed all the men in the league as well as the world, and at this rate humanity is as good as extinct if something’s not done to fix it.” She said.

“Wait a minute… Are you saying that I’m the only guy in the world?” Sunset asked in shock. Feeling dread in the pit of his stomach.

“Yes. How do you not know about all this? It happened three months ago.” She said as she stared at him in disbelief.

The three teens couldn’t believe it. They were wondering if this was some sort of joke or sick prank.

“I’m sorry. But that’s a little hard for me to believe. No offense.” Sunset said as he found this all absurd that he was the only guy alive.

“It’s true. I’m not lying. Take a look.” One of the nurses said as they flipped the tv in the room on to a news channel.

The three teens could only stare in horror as they watched old news footage of the pandemic reporting of every man on earth dying left and right from a virus that was spread by a deranged blonde haired woman dressed in a toga. It killed every one of every age, from the newborn all the way to the elderly. What got their attention more was the scenes of super heroes trying to stop the pandemic, and several quelling riots. Especially the fact that they recognized most of the heroes. Wonder Woman, Bat Girl, Super Girl, and many others.

Sunset, Twilight, and Trixie quickly realized that they were in the DC universe. This was unbelievable for them but yet here they were. But a thought quickly occurred to Sunset.
Wait a minute! That means that was actually Wonder Woman, Super Girl, and Black Canary I saw back there! Shit! Does that mean the virus is going to kill me too?!
“How do you not know this?” A nurse asked.

“We’ve been staying out of town in my family’s cabin in the woods for the past few months. We just got back into the city.” Sunset said, hoping they would buy it.

“I don’t know how it’s possible! But your test results show that you’re completely immune to the virus!” Another doctor said as she walked in with his test results.

“That’s incredible!” A nurse added.

Sunset sighed in relief, at least that was one thing he didn’t have to worry about.

The staff finished up his tests after a while after getting the group's information. The staff didn’t believe that the teens were giving them their real names at first until they showed the staff their ID cards. The doctor checking up on the teens along with a couple assistants told them that they would be back, that they needed to report this new information quickly. This gave the three teenagers some time to process the situation they found themselves in.

“This is incredible! Not only does the machine work but can even send matter to other universes!” Twilight said excitedly.

“I don’t know what to say. This is terrifying.” Trixie said fearfully.

“What are you talking about? This is amazing!” Twilight exclaimed excitedly.

“Trixie’s right. This is bad.” Sunset said quickly realizing the magnitude of the situation.

“What do you mean?” Twilight asked. Still caught up in her excitement.

“Think about it Twilight. We are in a parallel universe where people who are so powerful that they are the equivalent of gods. Not to mention that there are people out there that are supervillains who can potentially wipe out cities or even planets, not to mention if what that doctor said is true we will be drawing a lot of attention to ourselves to the wrong kind of people.” Sunset explained.

Twilight’s eyes widened in horror as he explained the situation they were in.

“Not to mention that I’m the last guy on the planet. Everyone is going to be gunning for me, and in turn you girls because everyone saw you with me.” The young man added.

Both girls paled at hearing this. They watched plenty of sci-fi movies and knew how things like this went down involving aliens or beings from another world touching down. They didn’t like the idea of a secret government agency coming after them and locking them up, or worse.

“We have to get out of here, now.” Sunset said.

“C-Can’t we just get the Justice League to help us?” Twilight asked hopefully.

“Maybe, but what happens then? Chances are we wouldn’t be allowed to leave or go back to our world.” Sunset said.

“What do you mean?” Twilight asked.

“I’m the last guy on the planet girls. I don’t think they are going to let me go, they are probably going to say something along the lines of the ‘needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few’ I don’t think I’ll ever have any freedom at that point. Then there’s the fact that we know their secret identities. I don’t think they would treat us badly, but a gilded cage is still a cage as far as I’m concerned, and there’s no fucking way I’m doing that shit again.” He growled to himself.

“Then there is the fact that this may not be the DC that we know. For all we know this could be one of its many alternate universes.” Twilight added, quickly understanding where he was going with this.

Sunset was this world’s only hope of survival so far from what they gathered, and there was no way they would let him go. Even if it meant them staying in this world for the rest of their lives. At least that was what Twilight and the others thought in their own minds.

“I’ve seen this in an episode before in the Justice League: Animated Series. An amazon by the name of Aresia creates a virus that is supposed to kill all the men of the world. In the show they managed to stop her and create a cure for the virus and save everyone. But from the looks of things, they failed in this universe.” Trixie said. The others nodded in understanding, having seen the show when they were younger.

“Since this is an alternate universe. What we know may not be accurate. For all we know some of the league may have been involved in it too.” Sunset added, not liking it, but trying to look at all of the possibilities.

“But how are we going to survive? We don’t have any money.” Twilight replied.

“I got us covered in that regard.” Sunset said as he opened his backpack up and pulled out a few gold coins.

Before the girls could say anything, Sunset used his magic to make more gold coins appear in his now glowing blue hand until it was almost overflowing with coins. A few coins fell out of his hand and back into his backpack. He was so happy that he learned the duplication spell.

The girls went slacked jawed and wide eyed at the display as he put the coins back into the backpack and a few in his pocket.

The young man then reached into his biker jacket and pulled out four big wads of cash from hidden pockets in his jacket and pants. Each roll of cash was the size of his fist and was nothing but one-hundred-dollar bills held together by rubber bands.

He didn’t think their eyes could have gotten any bigger. But they did. He gave the girls one roll of cash each.

“H-How?” They both stuttered in perfect unison.

“When I arrived at Canterlot High from Equestria for the first time. All I had was the clothes on my back and a few bits in my pocket, the gold coins I showed you. I used that spell, the duplication spell to make more gold coins and sold them for cash. Did pretty well for myself.” He explained to the girls.

“Use those in case we get separated, we can use that to survive.” He said. They both nodded as they got over their shock at how wealthy Sunset really was.

“We need to get out of here before they come back. We don’t have much-” He was cut off mid-sentence as a loud argument was heard down the hall.

“If you do not leave, you will be placed under arrest!” One officer shouted from down the hall.

“We’re not here to cause trouble.” Someone else replied.

“This is all your fault! Why should we let you anywhere near him! You’ll just try to kill him like that other bitch did!” Another voice said.

“Those kids need to be under league protection!”

Sunset peaked his head out of the room and saw that it was none other than Wonder Woman and Black Canary and the police were arguing with them, he figured Super girl was still handling the mob. But he immediately regretted it when the two superheroes saw him. He quickly ducked back into the room.

“Shit they saw me!” Sunset said with panic.

“Who?” Twilight asked.

“Wonder Woman and Black Canary.” He said as they began to panic too.

“Don’t just stand there! Get us out of here!” Trixie said in panic.

They all quickly grabbed their backpacks and readied themselves. Trixie and Twilight grabbed Sunset’s hands. Just as they heard the sounds of footsteps coming closer to the room, the three teens disappeared in a flash of light.

*Wonder Woman – 1st Person POV*

I made my way into the hospital with Dinah. Kara was staying behind to deal with the crowd while we were going to find the boy and the girls and take them into league custody. We couldn’t let anything happen to them. He was the world’s only hope.

I can’t believe I let him get stabbed by one of my sisters… No… She wasn’t one of my sisters anymore. She was trying to kill an innocent boy. She was a criminal.

That boy… He looked like he was barely 18, so did the girls. They’re still just children. They must be so scared right now.

Where did those three come from? They just came flying out of that portal. Are they from another world? Another dimension? Or did they just teleport from another area of the city? These were just some of the many questions that were going through my head right now. But there was time to think about it later, for now we had to find them!

I walked up to the front desk of the emergency room. The second the nurse saw me she gave me a look of pure hatred. If looks could kill, I would have been dead and buried.

“I need to know where the boy that was admitted is. He came in with two girls.” I asked. Barbara told us through comm links that the boy was spotted nearby on the hospital’s surveillance cameras.

There were a lot of police in the room, obviously to guard the boy. All of them glaring at me with hate. I didn’t know how much more of this I could take. Everyone hated me, even when I tried to save them, I tried to stop Aresia from releasing the virus. But that doesn’t matter to them. The world hates me and my sisters now, and I can’t say I blame them.

“It’s important that you tell us where he is ma’am. We are here to take him and his friends into protective custody.” Dinah said, trying to get the nurse to cooperate.

“Yeah right, you’re just here to murder him. Fuck off amazon whore.” The nurse told them.

We weren’t getting anywhere here. But we saw the officers down the hall where they were guarding a room.

We walked down the hall, but a group of officers stopped us before we could get any further. The nurse was shouting that we can’t go back there, but we ignored her. The officers put their hands on their guns.

“We need to see the kids.” Black Canary said.

“We were told to keep any league members away from those kids.” A red headed officer said who looked like she just turned 18.

“We’re here to help officers. We’re not looking to cause any trouble.” I replied calmly.

“Yeah right! You sure helped him when he was stabbed by one of your ‘sisters’.” A blonde officer in her 20’s scoffed with disdain.

“Please, that boy in there is probably the only hope the world has. We need to take him into protective custody.” Black Canary said.

“We’re not letting you in. Orders from the higher ups. You are not allowed in. Those kids are going to be placed in government protective custody. End of discussion.” The blonde officer stated with finality. This made things a lot more difficult.

“Well, we still need to talk to him, he could have important information for us.” Dinah explained. But at this point, the officers were finally fed up.

“If you do not leave, you will be placed under arrest!” The red headed officer barked as the police quickly drew their guns on us. I was afraid of the guns, but it didn’t help me with my guilt. I honestly felt like a criminal right now.

“We’re not here to cause trouble, officer.” I pleaded.

“This is all your fault! Why should we let you anywhere near him! You’ll just try to kill him like that other bitch did!” The blonde officer snarled.

“Those kids need to be under league protection!” Dinah exasperated, getting tired with the officers being uncooperative with us. Forgetting all the good we did and how we worked with them to help others.

It was at that moment I saw the boy stick his head out of the door. The second my eyes locked onto him, I saw a look of fear in his eyes before he quickly ducked back into the room.
I tried to walk past the officers only for them to block my way again. I finally got fed up and snatched their weapons from them and crushed the guns in my grip and walked past the now fuming cops.

I felt bad, honestly, I did. I knew they were just doing their job and were grieving over their loved ones but we already got reports that Amanda Waller was on her way. The idea of those kids being taken by her fills me with dread at the things she would do to them. At least with us we could at least make sure they’re safe and comfortable. We would try to keep them happy. But Waller just cares about results. No doubt she would threaten the girls and use them as leverage to keep the boy in her control and stop him from trying to escape. He would only be seen as breeding stock to her.

Then there’s Aresia and her followers who are still out there and once they catch wind of this they will no doubt try to hunt him down and kill him.

We quickly got to the room but when I opened the door, to my horror the kids were gone. The three beds were empty. We quickly checked under the beds and anywhere else they could have hidden but there was no trace of them. Thinking that maybe they were afraid of me I called out to them desperately. But no answer.

They were gone, they ran. The world’s only hope is now gods know where.

Author's Note

(1) Even though Sunset is in human form, he still has access to his magic. As well as being strong as an actual horse. Along with being able to run as fast as an actual horse and having the endurance of one too.

(2) The Equestria Sunset is from a reversed gender rolled Equestria, where mares greatly outnumber stallions. Where in a good place Stallions make approximately 10% of the population and in more secluded areas it could be even less.

(3) The Royal Guard don’t really do anything in the show, they are pretty much useless in my opinion.

(4) Sunset has been personally training the girls in magic. Twilight and Trixie more so than the others since Twilight wants to study it for scientific purposes and Trixie so she can use it in her magic shows. I personally like the idea of Human Trixie learning real magic to use in her stage performances, like how Zatanna does in the DC comics.

(5) The Amazon’s are great fighters in their own right, but without their powers and enhancements, they wouldn’t fare too well in a fire fight since they only use swords and spears.
