Chapter 6: A Gem Named Sparky

Previous Chapter

Sunset and Sunny were walking around letting the sun heat their skins a little bit, Sunset didn't really felt how hot the sun were. She really did still wanted to have an answer on the origin of the gem that grant their lifes back never left her head's inner thoughts, although she is enjoying her concerts and spending time with everyone else; but how did a gem like that ended in that realm? And what about the origin?

"You've been making that face for a week now, what's munching that undead breain of yours?" Sunny teasingly asked to Sunset.

"I don't even know if i have a functional brain... it's all of that gem and how misterios it is. Back in Equestria i knew about magic capable of turning others into shadows, changing genders and even making ponies walk in clouds" Sunset took a break between words, Sunny didn't recalled her naming that Equestria before. "But... i've never heard of magic capable of making other's return to life"

"What is that Equestria? You never have mentioned it before" Sunny was utterly curious, especially when she heard the word of ponies and magic tied up in the same sentence. "If it is not much trouble of course"

"Well... it is interesting to say the least, it is kinda like this world but reigned by ponies: Earth ponies, pegasus and unicorns. The only ones above them are alicorns, with most powerfull magic that ever existed." Sunny's eyes glimmered over that short explanation Sunset gave. "Obvious magic was a deal there and sometimes it crossed over boundaries making me and my friends fight to make it stop"

"I would have gave so much to see it with my own eyes" Sunny's voice reflected her excitement. "There has been videos around the net that showed some of those days but there were some people saying that they were edited... i always thought that they had something especial on them"

Sunset hold Sunny closer to her by holding her by the left shoulder. "And they had, because it was all thanks to my friends that were beside me." Sunny's next phrase were just a simple 'Aww' as she always have been someone that loved how others showed their friendship, but then she remembered something and her eyes widen completely gasping loudly in the process. "Wow... what happened'"

"I just remembered... there's another library" Sunset's eyes widen as well, without a word her sight was asking where is it. "Follow me!" And then Sunny tugged from Sunset's arm unpluggig it from the rest of the body, she quicky realized and gave it back before someone else could see it.

They arrived the library that Sunny went at first to find Izzy, she quite didn't actually went to read books so they didn't knew what kind of things they would find on there, as her previous visit only consisted on a challenge by the librarian, a huge man that also had good hand with teas, as they went inside they saw this man holding what it looked liked to be a photo with a sad look in his eyes that vanished as soon as he saw both Sunny and Sunset.

"Ahem, what can i do for you girls?" He kindly asked quickly hiding the frame on a pocket and made a big smile when he saw Sunny. "Are you looking for a challenge again? You can't beat me at all" he joked but Sunny just smiled to hide her obvious anger as she still doesn't know how he won all the games played when they first met.

"I'm not here for that" Sunny's smile could mean that she could kill him in a blink as she was still angry at him, she quickly made a deep breath to calm herself down. "We're looking for some information on a certai topic. I guess that you wouldn't have a section related to... uhm... magical gems?"

"What do you think?" He said very serious, both girls worried. "Third bookshelf on the right of the stairs, good luck on your research!"

Both girls went upstairs, but Sunset's eyes glanced to the photo that she could see peaking out of the pocket, wondering what or who was in it that made such a big man show a sad look like he had. But that was not the time for that, they found the said bookshelf full of books some of them almost impossible to take out of it because of the ammount, they were a bit over the stock of books, they hurried to read as many as possible so they wouldn't need to stay for too long or about the time that the library would be about to close.

They spent about thirty minutes reading books, and yet they still got nothing, Sunset felt like her eyes could pop out of the sockets at any time after reading for too long, that was more of a Twilight thing, she would have preffered to take the challenge from Alphabittle, she was about to give up unti when reading one of the next books she saw the description that was exactly to the one that Sunny gave to her earlier.

"Sunny, i found it!" She calimed in a loud whisper, Sunny then leaned closer to her. "Known as the Dragon Spark, this gem is known for the capacity it has for granting wishes; it is also said that this gem resembles a dragon scale. This gem is powerfull enough to shapeshift stuff, make impossible things such as giving long life as a wish, as long as the owner keeps it

"So that's why you came back! The gem has a strong power and can grant wishes. If it has no limits on what wishes can grant, then it explains a lot" She confidently said with a wide smile all over her face. "Oh, that's a nice Sparky"

"Did you just named the gem Sparky?" And Sunny nod, Sunset giggled softly. "Where is it now?"

"I have it stored inside a chest in my room. This is so exciting" She sounded like a squeeking toy, she got shushed by the rest of the librarian users, the went back downstairs and headed into the exit but Sunset stoped for a second. "Sunset? You comming?"

"Just a second.. i'll be right there" She walked closer to Alphabittle and looked into the photo that still was showing from the pocket. "That photo you have in your pocket... is of someone important to you?" Sunset calmly asked, the big man looked back at her into her aquamarine looking eyes, vey relaxing kind of eyes.

"It is important, i don't know where she is now but... i hope she's fine." She showed the photo to Sunset, it was a little girls with a very puffy and curly hair, Sunset recalls to have seen her before but she desn't hit quite where. "She was the most beautifull, my little sunshine. I miss her so much"

"Don't worry, i'm sure she's fine" She hold his hand expecting to see into his mind and probably be able to hear her voice, she may have changed it but Sunset could have a hint on how she could sound, but nothing happened, after all those were powers granted by stones that they didn't had anymore. "I kinda now the feeling of not having your family... i sometimes miss my parents too; especially because i treated them wrongly. You're a good man, you will find her"

"Thank you, that's really sweet of you. I'm sure you'll also get good with your parents" Then Sunset felt a sting in her heart and her feelings, but kept the smile so she didn't cause worry on him, as he was already too much worried about her daughter, she just waved and got out of the library, Sunny then felt how Sunset grabbed her shirt, her teeth gritting in frustration when she realized that she never went back to Equestria to tell her parents, that she was sorry for being a bad daughter, for fleeing to another universe... that chance is long gone forever.
