Chapters The snow was coming down at a light, but smooth pace in Canterlot City. Over at Crystal Prep Academy, some of the shadowbolts were decorating the hallway for this time of year. The ones decorating were Sugarcoat, Diwata Aino, Orange Sherbet, Said Thunderbolt, Neon Lights and Lightning Blue. Neon and Lightning were hanging streamers from one wall to the other. Diwata asked Orange for the stapler. This was so she can staple the last snowflake onto the bulletin board. They were putting in a lot of hard work, since this will be the first holiday season where Twilight won’t be with the other Shadowbolts. The second they finished, Neon put the ladder aside. They couldn’t believe their eyes.
Over in what resembles Bay Ridge, New York, Twilight finished making hot chocolate. She brought them into the living room for her friends: Minuette, Lemon Hearts, Twinkleshine and Moondancer.
Later that evening, Shadowbolt Alizarin Bubblegum was wrapping gifts for Melon Mint and Crystal Lullaby. She wasn’t as upbeat as you want her to be, but in her mind, she could care less. She just wanted to get through her share of the season. A knock gave way at the door. When she opened it, she saw 2 girls wearing coats with their hoods up.
The next morning, Sonata and Wallflower were getting ready for school. The former siren said to the shy gardener “what a night that was. I can’t believe how comfy your bed was.”
The second they arrived, some of the other wondercolts were already outside. They got a glimpse of Sonata and Wallflower. Sandalwood told them their skates were super cool. Roseluck came over and asked where they got them.
While making cheer up cards for Sunset and Alizarin, those 2 were in the following new clothes.
Over in the music room, Sonata and Wallflower saw Sunset and Alizarin. All 4 girls said hi to each other.
Sunset Shimmer went first.
She jumped to when she was 10 years old.
“You’re lucky you just had to deal with bullying and a shade of neglection Sunset Shimmer” Alizarin commented. “My childhood was much worse. When I was a young child, I lived with my cousin, Cotton Candy, and her mom. We would have balls of fun together during the holidays.”
Sonata and Wallflower hugged Alizarin and Sunset.
A while later, Alizarin arrived at Crystal Prep Academy just in time for lunch. She grabbed a chicken sandwich and some orange juice before strolling off to find a table. There was one open across the room. One that had Alizarin’s friends: Ginger Owlseye, Melon Mint, Crystal Lullaby, Frosty Orange and Indigo Zap. She walked over and said hi to the others who said hi back.
Melon then stood up in anger.
Meanwhile, it was lunchtime for Canterlot High as well. Sonata and Wallflower looked around.
Sandalwood’s gift was a new pair of winter jeans. Wallflower’s gift was a new hoe for her garden. While the eco kids were enjoying their time opening presents, Sonata’s lunch group were still feeling bad for what she had to put up with.
Return of Old Friends and Fun Sleepovers
A little while later, the school received a half-hour break. That gave both Wallflower’s lunch pals and Sonata’s lunch mates some time to play in the snow. Sonata and Wallflower did some ice skating moves. Sandalwood and Captain Planet were building a snowman. The rest of the girls were playing in the snow.
Paisley then replied “hey, remember when we first met Princess Twilight? She can handle a bully no problem.”
Inside, Sandalwood said “by the way, Twilight. This is Foggy Blue, Roseluck and Wallflower Blush. They joined our school while you were gone.”
In the music room, Twilight heard the other rainbooms- Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Pinkie Pie- finishing up a fun jam.
Outside, they saw a holiday party bus in front of the school. That bus was set up exclusively for them.
Upon arriving at the mall, the girls thanked James for a fun ride.
When she finished, even the other rainbooms were in heartbreaking disbelief.
Later that evening, some students from both Canterlot High School and Crystal Prep Academy came together for different sleepovers. The first one was occuring at Raspberry Fluff’s house. With Raspberry Fluff was Derpy Hooves, Blueberry Pie, Sonata Dusk, Wallflower Blush, Roseluck and Foggy Blue.
Meanwhile, another sleepover was going down at Alizarin’s house. With her were Ginger Owlseye, Melon Mint, Crystal Lullaby, Frosty Orange, Indigo Zap and Yellow Meringue. This gang of 7 were making pizza together.
At the same time, the rainbooms were having their own sleepover. While Pinkie was on her computer, Fluttershy, Rarity and Sunset took a selfie together.
Later that night, Crystal saw Yellow Meringue in the living room.
Meanwhile, Wallflower saw Sonata in the kitchen.
Back in the Blues Stopping Game
The next morning, every last student at Crystal Prep Academy was in clothes that were more casual than expected. Some of which included:
They were all at school finishing up their class project.
A while later, all of Canterlot High were in the Cafeteria for lunch. Not only were the Crystal Prep Shadowbolts were with them, but the former movie wrecker- Juniper Montage- was there as well.
A short time after lunch, Sandalwood, Micro Chips and their guy pals were walking to the auditorium when they bumped into Twilight.
Outside, Twilight saw the other rainbooms standing in front of a limo.
At the mall, Wallflower, Sonata and their sleepover gang ran into the rainbooms. Juniper Montage was with them as well.
Meanwhile, Twilight and the rainbooms found one gift they can give Sunset Shimmer.
They decided to take a break for some burgers and smoothies.
Mission Accomplished and Parents Reunited
Later that evening, Alizarin and her friends were at Indigo Zap’s house. They were watching Charlie Brown.
Meanwhile, Wallflower, Sonata and their group of friends were at Roseluck’s house putting the finishing touches on their gift.
The next day, students have already walked off to class including Sunset Shimmer. Wallflower saw that her locker’s still open. This will be easier than she thought. Without hesitation, she slid the gift in there and closed it.
Later on, at lunch, Sonata and Wallflower’s sleepover pals saw them enjoying lunch with Juniper.
Meanwhile, the rainbooms were talking about their next sleepover.
Later on, at the Sweet Snacks Cafe, Alizarin and her friends ran into Sandalwood and his friends. They all said hi to one another.
Yellow’s dad then said “by the way, look who else’s parents we found.”
Later that night, the rainbooms were at Rainbow Dash’s house for their 3rd of the consecutive sleepovers. The cutie mark crusaders were there as well.
Downstairs, Sunset said this to the viewers. “Well, that’s the story. You guys were right. Me and my friends have turned into the family I always wanted. During this time of year, it is important to be with the ones you love. If you’re like me and ain’t so lucky to be with them, well, I’m sure you have a good friend you can be with. Who knows? Your friends can turn into the family you want to have. If it can happen to me, it can happen to you. I better get back to bed. From all of us here at Equestria Girls, we wish you all a happy holidays and to all a goodnight.”
Author's Note
So, this is a product I made after watching a certain video about Sunset Shimmer on youtube. It mentioned that Sunset did have parents who might have given up on her. What actually got me was what some of the people said in the comments. One person wanted to agree with the theory about the rainbooms being Sunset Shimmer’s family. Others wanted to disagree. I was thinking about it and I thought that if more people spoke up about not being without a family to go home to, then someone would step up and help do something about it so this fic was born. Hasbro, if you’re watching this, please turn this into a 47 minute special or 80 minute movie because I think it’ll help a lot of people around the world. I hope you like this fic and have a safe and happy holiday.
