prologue: The birth of Sunset Shimmer(16 years ago)

Sunbeam Shimmer stood in front of the portal at Canterlot High. She sighed, watching the sun set. Her young daughter, about less than a month old, was curled up in the blanket. She placed a card on her chest, which read, Sunset Shimmer, before shoving the young infant into the portal.

Over on the other side, was a princess, Princess Celestia. When she saw the baby unicorn foal, she was astonished.

Celestia resolved to take the child as her own, and raise her.

Gilda taunts me(and I reveal)

Gilda pushed me against my locker. I rubbed my head briefly.

“Stop.” I said. “Gilda, please. I’m not who I was before!”

“Oh, is that so?” sneered Gilda. She turned to her cronies. “Let’s teach the she demon a lesson!”

Gilda punched me right in the stomach. I doubled over. I wasn’t to be deterred. I was stronger than her. I aimed a kick at her, missed.

She grabbed the skin, well, what would have been my skin. She pulled at it, revealing the rather hairy, wolfish face I had.

She stepped back, as I gasped.

She punched me repeatedly in the face. I didn’t even bother defend myself. I let her. She ruled the school with an iron fist, like I once did.

I fell, onto my back. She kicked my shin, leaving me curled up in a ball, shaking.

I got back up, grabbing my mask off the floor.

I looked at my phone, and there, on My Stable, were posts of my face.

i tell my friends

I sighed, before walking into the sweet shoppe, where i knew my friends would gather. “Hi,” I said. “I have something to confess.”

“What?” asked Rainbow Dash.

“Guys.” I said. “I am a wolf.”

My friends gasped.

“Prove it.” said Rarity.

I grimaced, pinching the sides of my mask,pulling it off.

“Ohhh....” said Rarity. “I get what you mean.”

I put it back on.

“Yeah.” I replied. “I’m sorry for hiding this all this time.”

Twilight smiled at me. “You’re forgiven.”

I smiled back. “Thanks,” I said quietly. “I really appreciate it.”

Before I knew it, I was surrounded in a group hug by all my best friends, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle.

a guide to not over reacting to Conan Doyle

I walked in to English. I was lucky that Gilda wasn’t in my set, she was in the set below me. She’s a dumbass at English. I set my bag on the seat next to Twilight.

“Hey,” I said.

“Hi, Sunset,” said Twilight.

“Sign of Four?” I asked. “Is that the story where Sherlock and Watson discover a crime with Small and Tonga?”

“Absolutely!” cried Ms Cheerilee. “Well done, Sunset!”

I blushed. “Thanks, miss.” i whispered.

“Well,” said Ms Cheerilee, “Today we will be reading the story out. Micro Chips, you’re Sherlock. Twilight, Watson. Sunset, Small and Tonga, Fluttershy, you’re Mary Morstan. Applejack, you’re the Sholtos and Arthur Morstan. Rarity, you’re Mrs Bernstone and Cecil Forrester and Mrs Hudson. And Flash, you’re Athleney Jones.

“Okay...” said Fluttershy.

The hour long english lesson passed.

The bell rang, as we ran out of the class room for recess.

Author's Note

This chapter was inspired by the book I am reading, the Sign of Four, By Conan Doyle. Read it, it’s amazing!

I meet my parents

I was the first to finish the Chemistry test. Again. I opened the letter my mom sent me earlier today.

Dear Sunset,
Can you meet me by the portal at 7 pm, tonight?
Bring some friends if you wish.

Yours affectionately, Mother

I grinned. I opened Whatsapp on my phone, and went onto the Rainbooms Group chat.
R u guys avaliable at 7 pm 2night?

I waited.

Yes. Why?

You’ll see. Let the others know, okay?🙂

Okay. Will do

Thank u.

My friends and I arrived at the portal.

I saw a 2 figures run towards the portal. “Sunset? Is that you?” asked the woman, my mother.

“Yes,” I said. “I am. Mom. Dad This is Rarity, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Applejack.”

“But are you really our daughter?” growled a voice. I assumed my father.

“Yes.” I said. “I am.”

“I think you have to prove it,” hissed Twilight, in my ear.

I sighed. “Okay.” I said. I pulled off the mask. I tied my red-gold hair in a ponytail, so the triangular ears would be more promient.

My father nodded. “You are.”

My mother smiled. “Would you like to live with us?” she asked.

“I’d love that,” I said, shyly, with a small smile.

A wonderful surprise

My mother opened the door, letting me in.

“Hey, Sunset?” asked Rarity. “We’re neighbours, so do you mind if I drop in tonight about the Spring Ball?”

“Sure,” I said. “I don’t mind.”

Rarity grinned, before shutting the door behind me.

“Sunset, this is Lizzie. Liz, this is Sunset, your elder sister.”

“Hi, Sunset,” said Lizzie. “I’m 10 years old. I’m like you, no need to hide away. How old are you?”

“16,” I said.

Lizzie smiled. “I love the Rainbooms! I didn’t realise my big sis was a member, though!”

I smiled. “Thanks. Maybe I can play something on my guitar for you at some point.”

There was a knock on the door. I opened it, standing there was my ex boyfriend, Flash Sentry.

Flash and I sat on my bed.

“Sunset,” he said. “You never wanna talk to me. Why?”

“I’m scared.” I admitted. “I was scared that you’d judge me for who I am.”

Flash hugged me. “Course I wouldn’t! I love the wolf you!”

“You do?” I asked, brightening.

“Sure!” he cried. “It makes you unique. And will you go to the ball with me?”

“Flash, we haven’t frickin’ dated since Freshman, and I was a bitch. A total bastard to you. I’d love to. But...”

“But what about we have a practice date to see?” he said. “I know you like me...”

“I do.” I said. “Always have.”

fight scene 2(Sunset POV)

I gasped. “How dare you!” I shouted.

Gilda glared at me. “You may have ruled the school once, Sunset, but it’s my time to shine!”

Gilda jumped onto me. We started fighting, Gilda ripping my clothes apart, until all was left was who I am.

I snarled. She backed away from me, her gaze never leaving my soft cyan blue eyes.

She scratched me, right down the back.

We kept fighting, injuries appearing all over our bodies. I was weakening. Gilda was stronger than me. I knew it.

I struggled against her long sharp nails that dug into it.

She laughed, before kicking me in the stomach. I keeled over, motionless. I briefly saw Rainbow Dash running, for help, before I blacked out.

Fluttershy the vet

I whined weakly, as Rainbow ran over with Fluttershy and my friends. Applejack carried me in her strong, capable hands. “We have to take her home,” said Fluttershy. “We have to take her to mine.”

Rarity gasped, as she saw the state of my clothes. "I’ll make some new ones,” said Rarity.
I was still whining. “Hush, Sunset,” said Fluttershy. “You’ll be alright. I promise.”

Applejack put me down on Fluttershy’s sofa. I don’t remember what happened after that.

Recovering(part 1)

I woke up, finding myself on Fluttershy’s sofa.
“How long have I been out?” I asked.

“A week,” said Fluttershy, smiling at me.

I tried to sit up. “Ow...” i groaned. “Gilda did all that?”

“Yep.” said Rainbow Dash. “And she’d have killed me, if you hadn’t intervened. I’m grateful, Sunset. Thank you.”

I smiled wanly. “You’re welcome, Dash.”

Recovering(part 2)

“Oh thank God you’re okay!” shouted Flash, running into the living room.

“I am,” I said. “Okay.”

“Thanks,” he said, turning to my friends. “For looking after her.”

Rarity passed me a bundle of clothes. “Here.” she said. “I made you a new set.”

I opened the parcel, a long sleeved amber skin and blue jeans, and a teal mini dress. Also complete was a new leather jacket and high black boots. And a pair of brand new amber gloves.

“I love them!” I cried, reaching over to give Rarity a hug. “Thanks.”

My friends smiled. I knew I was going to be fine.

the spring ball

“Wow!” breathed Flash. “You look amazing!”

“Thanks?” I said, blushing slightly.

“Sure, you look hot.” he said.

He led me into the gym.

My favourite song, from my favourite musical, City of Stars, From La La Land, played.

Flash squeezed my hand, leading me into a dance.

I smiled, letting him take the lead, dancing.

I didn’t know I had it in me to dance elegantly.

Or did I?

I talk to her(Flash POV)

Author's Note

As you know, Sunset is dead.

The story is now told from Flash Sentry’s POV(this chapter) and RD’s POV(next one)

I talk to her(Flash POV)

I couldn’t concentrate. I sat next to her in English, but now, she’s gone. Sunset’s gone.

I ran out of the classroom, into the boys’ lavatory. I dried my eyes, trying to not let her death get the better of me.

But she was young. 16 years old, nearly 17. I think. She didn’t deserve to die to that bitch Gilda.

I sobbed into my pillow that night. I heard a voice. In front of me was Sunset Shimmer, my girlfriend, standing there, smiling.

“Hey,” she said in a soft voice. “Princess Luna and Princess Twilight helped me. They said I could communicate with you for 20 minutes. I wanted to say thank you. Thank you for being my best friend and boyfriend. I’m sorry how I treated you years ago. I want you to have this.”

She opened the palm of her hand. Laid in the centre of it was a locket with my name. I opened it, in it was a picture of Sunset and I at Camp Everfree, the day I fell in love with her. Next to it was the day we first kissed.

She also handed me a letter. “Read it later.” she whispered.

Then she faded into nothing.

I woke up with a jolt.

I clutched the letter in my hand. It wasn’t a dream.

I opened it.

Dear Flash,
I want to say, I love you.

If I had lived, I would have trashed Gilda.

I’m sorry, give my love to RD and the girls.

Yours truly, Sunset x

I smiled. I knew she hadn’t forgotten me.

Epilogue(RD POV)

I sighed. She was the bravest girl I ever knew. And the kindest. Well, after Fluttershy.

I will avenge her death for the Rainbooms! It’s time to fight back!

chapter 1: Rainbow tells me awesome news

I woke up with a jolt, as I remembered how I was born. Born in this world, to Sunbeam Shimmer. I was scared. My name is Sunset Shimmer. I am 16 years of age, and I have a terrible secret.

I am a wolf, a talking, living teenage wolf.

I sighed, getting out of bed, throwing on my favourite set of clothes, a pink long-sleeved t-shirt and an orange miniskirt. I pulled on my black leather jacket, and high black boots over the bottom set of paws. I then pulled an amber set of gloves onto the top set of paws and an amber mask to cover my true self.

I grabbed my brown satchel, before brushing my natural red-gold hair I inherited from my mom. I ran out of the apartment, locking the door behind me, to the mall, where I was going to meet my friends.

I arrived at the mall, panting. Rainbow Dash waved me over, smiling at me. “Hey,” she said.
“So why did ya bring us here?” asked Applejack.

“Well...” said Rainbow Dash. “My mom is having a baby... and I’m gonna be a big sis! Isn’t that amazing?”

We noisily congratulated her. “I’m so happy for you!” I cried.

“We should have a party!” suggested Pinkie Pie.

“No.” I said. “That’s not a good idea. Uh, because... I’m really busy.”

Pinkie nodded. “Okay. Later.”

I smiled. I knew I had to tell them sooner rather than later.

But what would they say?

(You ain't never had a) friend like me (RD pov)

RD POV. Named for my fave Aladdin song.

Next is fight scene number 2

(You ain't never had a) friend like me (RD pov)

I saw Gilda pushing Sunset over. Again.

“Lay off my best friend, Gilda!” I yelled. Gilda turned.

“Oh, look. Boys.” she sneered. “It’s Rainbow Crash.”

“Shut your face.” I muttered. “No one cares a shit about your games, Gilda.”

“Oh, really?” sneered Gilda. She leapt onto me. We started fighting.

“STOP!” yelled Sunset. “Stop! This isn’t what we do at CHS! We don’t fight!”

Gilda and I stared at her.

Gilda gritted her teeth. “Fine, Sunshit. I will show you what a real bully is.”

The final battle(RD and me vs Gilda)

“Oh look!” cried Gilda, coming up to Flash and I. “It’s the 2 love birds of Canterlot High!”

“Have you come to fight?” I asked. “If you have, i’m ready.”

I pulled off my dress over my head, taking the amber skins with it. I pulled off my gloves and mask, revealing my secret to the entire school. Students started backing off, leaving me, Dash and Gilda in the centre of the room.

Gilda and I circled each other, treading in a perfect circle. She then leapt on to Rainbow Dash. I ran forward, shoving Dash out of the way.

Gilda and I started to fight, both of us getting seriously injured. I knew I had to stop Gilda, for my friends. For CHS. For Flash.

Gilda and I fought. I could only hold her off for so long. Because I wasn’t expecting her to shove me into the wall.

I lay, motionless, curled up in a tiny ball, whimpering weakly.

I knew I didn’t have long to live. I looked up at my friends. “Thank you.” I whispered.

RD POV

I punched Gilda in the face. She kicked me. I didn’t care, I punched her straight in the stomach.

She retaliated. I gritted my teeth, punching and kicking her in her stomach until she got knocked out.

When I threw my last punch, and shouted, “THIS ONE’S FOR SUNSET!” Gilda fell back, motionless.

I checked her. Then I realised what I had done. I had killed Gilda.

alternative ending: The final battle (RD and Sunset vs Gilda) - Sunset pov

“Oh look!” cried Gilda, coming up to Flash and I. “It’s the 2 love birds of Canterlot High!”

“Have you come to fight?” I asked. “If you have, i’m ready.”

I pulled off my dress over my head, taking the amber skins with it. I pulled off my gloves and mask, revealing my secret to the entire school. Students started backing off, leaving me, Dash and Gilda in the centre of the room.

Gilda and I circled each other, treading in a perfect circle. She then leapt on to Rainbow Dash. I ran forward, shoving Dash out of the way.

Gilda and I fought. I could only hold her off for so long. Because I wasn’t expecting her to shove me into the wall.

I lay, motionless, curled up in a tiny ball, whimpering weakly.

Rainbow Dash ran for help, dragging the remaining mane 6 with her. Fluttershy poured over my injuries, wiping bacteria out of them with an antiseptic cloth.

Applejack carried me in her strong arms, as they sprinted to Fluttershy’s house.

“Her injuries are worse than last time’s.” said Fluttershy. “She’s suffering concussion.”

I woke up again in Fluttershy’s house, Fluttershy sleeping peacefully against my shoulder. I looked at my arm, covered in bandages.

“You’re awake!” yelled Rainbow Dash.

“SHHHH!” chorused the others. “Fluttershy’s sleeping.”

Fluttershy stirred. “Oh, Sunset!” she cried. “I’m so happy to see you awake! We thought you were gonna die!”

Fluttershy leaned over to hug me.

“And ah think we should change her dressings,” said Applejack, holding up a wad of bandages in her hand.

Fluttershy nodded. She unwrapped the bloody dressings off my arms and legs and back, before wrapping a new piece around me.

I sat up. “Painful.” I said.

“I know,” said Rainbow Dash. “I know how it feels.”
