chapter 2View Onlinetrue lovechapter 2SUNSET. I ran into my apartment. I hurried into my shower, washing so I was clean for the prom. I then put on a light blue dress and my black leather jacket. I then slipped my dagger into its case and put it in my inside pocket. I packed my gun on my belt. I then put on my high black boots. I then climbed into the Beast costume, pulled on the paw glove and held the mask under my arm. I grabbed my satchel and my keys. I went out of my apartment, locking it. I hurried into my car, driving to Flash’s place. Flash was waiting outside for me. He hurried into the passenger seat. I drove him to school. I put on the mask and got out. Flash got out as well. I dropped my keys into my satchel. Flash squeezed me. “You look good,” he said. I looked at him. “So do you,” I said. He held out his hand. “Shall we?” he asked. I nodded. He led me into the gym. “Sunset, is that you?” shouted Applejack. I nodded. “So you went as Tiana?” I asked. Applejack nodded. The first song, Awesome as I Wanna Be played. I’m guessing Rainbow’s choice.
chapter 4View Onlinetrue lovechapter 4Flash smiled. “Come on,” he said, leading me. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were poised, and Cheese and Pinkie. Applejack and Soarin’ were ready to dance. So were Bon Bon and Lyra, Micro Chips and Twilight. “HIT IT, VINYL!” yelled Pinkie. As the music began, Flash bowed to me. I curtseyed. He held my paws, as we started our waltz. I couldn’t but help sing along. It’s such a good song, and I love it. Not as much as Beauty and the Beast. We danced, our steps matching each other. Then it was Beauty and the Beast. I looked behind. Gilda and her cronies had slipped in. Flash and I danced again, this time, I led it. I knew the dance by heart, as when I was younger, my mother would make me learn this dance. I wasn’t a great dancer, I knew that, but this was my favourite song by far. As the song closed, Gilda jumped at her chance. “What do you want, Gilda?” I snarled, taking down the zip and stepping out of the costume. I took off the mask and placed it in my satchel. “Revenge,” she said. “You girls got me expelled, remember?” Flash stood beside me. “Leave her alone, pervert,” said a voice. Rainbow Dash. “Ah, Crash,” said Gilda, as she pulled out her dagger. I stepped in front of Rainbow Dash. “It was Dash, not me,” I said quietly, pulling out my dagger. Gilda smirked. “And what if I hurt you?” she sneered. Gilda punched me. I kicked her in her shin. We began fighting, on top of one another. Flash watched me with admiration, his eyes full of love. Hoops grabbed Flash, holding a knife to his throat. Gilda punched me again, repeatedly. I fell to my knees, my body coursing in agony. “NO!” I shouted. “Don’t kill him! Kill me!” Gilda and I fought again. She raised her dagger. I strained my right arm against her, knocking her dagger out of her hand. She grunted as she crawled to get it. Successfully. She raised the dagger above me. I looked above, following the path, as she plunged it straight into my abdomen. I yelled out in pain, blood blooming from it like a flower. I clutched the wound with both hands, my cyan eyes pleading to Flash. Flash wriggled himself free of Hoops, as I collapsed. He hurried to my side, his eyes focused on my wound. Dash and Gilda were fighting. Both girls punch, kick and insult each other with vile profanity. I groaned, as he gently moved my hands aside. “It’s deep,” he said. I moaned. Life was slipping away. Fast. Things were blurry from the tears streaming down my face like a river going into a lake. I could not see what was going on. I heard Fluttershy’s voice, distantly. I brought my hand to Flash’s cheek, stroking it gently. “At least I got to see you. One last time,” I said. “I’m sorry. Flash. I treated you so badly in my Freshman year. And now, everything you’ve done for me. And our relationship is almost at its peak. And now... I’m dying.” I coughed. “Stay with me, Sunset,” he whispered, brushing my red-gold locks out of my face. I coughed again. “Sunset,” he said, holding my hand. “I love you.” Life faded from my eyes. My heart stopped beating. FLASH. Tears streamed down my face, onto her face. Her eyes were wide open. I gently shut them. She was gone. I kissed Sunset gently, a tear of love leaking out of one of my eyes, falling onto the wound. The wound absorbed it. Then a golden light came from nowhere, circling Sunset. Rainbow Dash and Gilda were still fighting. Dash had a split lip and bruised eye. Dash punched Gilda in her face. Gilda was surprised. Rainbow Dash grabbed Gilda’s neck, squeezing it. Applejack gasped. Gilda punched Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash keeled over, motionless. Applejack leapt forward, punching Gilda. “This is for Dash,” she said, repeatedly punching Gilda. Gilda retaliated. “This is for Fluttershy. This is for everyone who was victimised.” She grabbed Gilda’s neck. “And this is for Sunset,” she said, snapping Gilda’s neck. Everyone gasped. 2 bodies. The light was hard and bright, growing bigger and brighter each second, as it lifted Sunset into the air, her broken body seeming to heal. I was astonished. Was it true? Was a true love’s kiss real? Could it save her? As the light suddenly burst out of Sunset’s wound like a flower, I gasped in shock. The light died down, taking her down. Her wound was healed. Her eyes were still closed. Suddenly, her eyes fluttered open. “Flash,” she said weakly. “Sunset!” I cried, hugging her. A bit too fiercely. “Whoa, easy,” she said in a small, weak voice. Hoops, Score and Dumbbell gasped. I smiled. She rose up, like a snake, embracing me in a softer, gentler hug. She kissed me on my lips, gently. I just had to return it. Before we knew it, it had turned into a highly passionate kiss. She smiled, rubbing her neck awkwardly. “OOOOH!” swooned Rarity. “MORE DANCING!” yelled Pinkie. Sunset cried out. “Not yet,” she said. “I’m not ready. I may have healed, but it still hurts.” She sighed. “I might just sit here,” she said weakly. I nodded. “I’ll join you,” I said.
chapter 5View Onlinetrue lovechapter 5SUNSET. As the night wore on, the prom came to a close. “Time to choose the fancy dress Prom King and Queen!” cried Vice-Principal Luna. “And the best fancy dress and other prizes!” I see the light played again. Flash helped me stand up, as I stepped into the costume again. I placed the mask back on. I held onto his arm, as we stood waiting. “The best couple goes to... Soarin’ and Applejack!” cried Principal Celestia. We all clapped. Soarin’ and Applejack went to collect a certificate each and a trophy between them. “The best fighter goes to... RAINBOW DASH!” “Go Dash!” yelled Fluttershy. Rainbow Dash walked onto the stage and collected the prize. “The cutest couple and best costumes go to Sunset and Flash!” “I can’t,” I said. “I can barely stand. You collect it, Flash.” “Let’s do it together,” he said. He helped me up the stairs. “Sunset, are you okay?” asked Vice-Principal Luna. “After you got stabbed.” “No,” I said. “The pain is still there.” I fell to the floor, passing out. The pain was overwhelming me. “Sunset!” shouted Flash. He turned to Vice-Principal Luna. “I’ll take them,” he said. “Come on, you.” He carried me down. “Awwww,” said Trixie to Wallflower. He put me down. I blinked. He smiled. “And best dancing goes to Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash!” Everyone cheered. They got their prizes. “Best song choice goes to SANDALWOOD!” Everyone cheered again. Sandalwood bowed, then collected the prize. “Finally, the best prize of all!” cried Principal Celestia. “The Prom King and Queen go to our cutest couple, Sunset and Flash!” Everyone erupted into cheers. Rainbow, Trixie and Applejack wolf-whistled. I blushed. I held onto Flash’s arm, as we both walked up. Principal Celestia placed the crowns on our heads. Flash leaned in. We kissed again, our hands wrapped around each other’s waists. We were deeply in l💖ve. “Alright, fun’s over!” cried Vice-Principal Luna. “Now, go home!” “Wait,” said Micro Chips. “I have something to confess.” He went down on one knee, holding out an opal ring to Twilight Sparkle. “Twilight Tara Velvet Sparkle. You are the kindest, most sciencey, most mathematical person I have ever met. I never thought I’d find someone like you. And I love you with all my heart. Will you be my wife?” Twilight looked at me shyly. “Go on,” I mouthed. “Say Yes.” Twilight took in a deep breath. “Oh, Micro Chips,” she breathed. “I love you. Yes, I’ll marry you!” The girls and I squealed. Twilight and Micro Chips were kissing. “Not yet,” said Flash. “Maybe in a few years.” He pecked a kiss on my cheek. I leaned my head on his shoulder. “Shall we?” he asked. “WAIT!” cried Pinkie. “The Prom King and Queen get to choose the last songs!” “Well, then,” I said. “For me, Phantom of the Opera.” I put my hand on his hand. My eyes flashed white. I saw he wanted Highway to Hell. “And for Flash, Highway to Hell.” “Phantom of the opera,” said Pinkie. “Interesting.” “It’s only because I’m performing the musical on Broadway,” I said. “The performance is tomorrow. I’m the phantom. Rarity as Christine, and Flash as Raoul. I can’t do opera very well.” “Ah yes,” said Principal Celestia. “So we’ll be going down to see you 3.” “Thank you, Principal Celestia,” I said. “But you don’t have to.” “We’ve booked tickets,” said Vice-Principal Luna. “Why don’t you sing it?” “Pinks, just play it,” I said. “And now, HIGHWAY TO HELL!” yelled Trixie. “BE PREPARED FOR SOME NOIIIIIISE!” “May I put in one request?” asked Rarity. “Say it, name it, Rarity!” cried Pinkie. “All I ask of you and reprise,” said Rarity. “Now, everyone, home,” said Principal Celestia. “We need to leave CHS by 6 am tomorrow.” Flash and I laughed. He held me, as we walked out together. We got into the car. I took off the mask and placed it in my satchel, and got out my keys. “Hey, Flash,” I said. “I-I want to ask you. Will you stay with me the night?” “Let me just check with my dad,” said Flash. Flash was texting. “He said yes. Why?” “I don’t want to have a nightmare about Gilda,” I said. “It’s just in case I have a nightmare. At least I know I have someone to comfort me.” Flash kissed me. “Hey, do you wanna have you know what together?” “Sex?” I replied. “I dunno. I don’t think I could live without you, Flash. You were always there when I was troubled. So yes.” “Finally, I know we said in a few years, but we have been dating a year or so. Sunset, I love you. Will you marry me?” he asked. “Yes,” I said. “Of course.” I drove off back to my apartment. Author's Note my favourite song is : i see the light
chapter 1View Onlinetrue lovechapter 1Sunset looked at the clock in her English literature classroom. 10 minutes until the end of the day. Sunset was dreading the day to end; tonight was the prom and yes, she had a date, but she didn’t want to go. She had feelings for him, sure. But she was dreading the time when she’d have to dance with him. How she wished the day would drag on, and so she could miss it. She felt someone’s hand on her shoulder. She turned. “Hey, Flash,” she said softly. “Hey, Sunset,” he said. “What’s wrong?” “Nothing,” she said. “Just nervous about the prom.” He rested his hands on her shoulders. “Sunset,” he whispered. “It’ll be okay.” She blushed a little. “So,” he said. “Got a song request? You need to let Pinkie Pie know as soon as this class ends.” “Yes,” she replied honestly. “So, have you got your fancy dress?” “Yes,” he replied. “I’m going as Eugene Fitzherbert from Tangled. What about you?” “Well, when I was 8, my mother used to read me Beauty and the Beast,” she said. “I’m going as Beast. I mean... he suits me well. Considering my temper.” The bell rang. Kids ran out. Sunset sat in her seat. “Sunset, come on,” said Fluttershy.
chapter 3View Onlinetrue lovechapter 3 Rainbow Dash yelled in celebration. Applejack and I groaned. This song brought back so many memories. “This song is so shitty,” muttered Applejack. Rarity walked over with the other girls. Rarity was dressed as Princess Aurora. “I agree,” said Rarity. “I hate this song,” I growled. “This brings back too many memories of the Battle of the Bands.” “I LOVE IT!!!!” shouted Rainbow Dash. “SHUT THE FUCK UP!” screamed Applejack. Heads turned in our direction. “Language, Miss Apple!” snapped Mr Doodle. “So vulgar,” said Rarity. I walked over to Flash. I leaned my head on his shoulder. “What did you request?” “I see the light,” he muttered. “You?” “Beauty and the Beast,” I murmured. “For couples,” we said in unison. “NEXT UP,” screamed Pinkie Pie. “IS... SHINY! FROM MOANA!” “Jesus!” cried Rainbow Dash. Lyra and Bon Bon hive-fived each other. They must have requested it. “This is a good song,” I said. “I love Moana. Especially this song. I also requested Phantom of the Opera. And Gaston. And Do you hear the people sing?” After it ended, Mamma Mia played. “Great song,” said Flash. “YES!” cried Sandalwood, who was standing next to us. Flash turned to Sandalwood. “Do you like this song?” “I love it!” he cried. “I love the movie, love the band, love the song.” Flash smiled. “I’ve never seen it,” he admitted. “Seriously?!” I cried. “Fuckin’ hell, Flash. You need to see Mamma Mia. It’s the best. Legit.” I saw Rainbow and Fluttershy dancing. I giggled. “Come on, Flash,” I said. “ONE MORE BEFORE COUPLES!” cried Pinkie. “GOIN’ BACK TO HOGWARTS!!!” Everyone began to sing along, screaming at the iconic chorus. Well, except Fluttershy and Wallflower, who were cowering against the wall. “Please tell me you’ve seen this,” I said. “Yes,” admitted Flash. “Ron is a total jerk in this musical.” “Draco is so funny,” said Rainbow Dash. “What’s Pigfarts?” “Where Draco is meant to go,” said Twilight. “But his mom won’t let him.” “This is old but great!” cried Applejack. “2009.” “COUPLES!” screamed Cheese Sandwich. “Time to shine!” yelled Pinkie. “First is I see the light!”
