"You're cutting it close, Cherry. School begins next week." Celestia said as she sat at her desk, thumbing through the files in front of her.

"I know. I'm sorry. Sunset just moved here and we had to spend a lot of time finding her paperwork." Cherry explained.

Sunset nervously nodded as she watched Celestia looking through her paperwork.

"Well, you do have everything you need. I suppose we can enroll you." Celestia leaned back in her seat. "What school did you say you transferred from?"

"Uhm, Manehatten." Sunset immediately stated and Cherry nodded.

"Canterlot is a long ways from Manehatten." Celestia pointed out and leaned forward. "Got family or something here?"

"Cherry and Berry both called me a few months ago asking if I could come help take care of Ruby. Parents said yes, so I flew over. Ruby is gonna be in daycare during the day, so we decided to enroll me here." Sunset answered calmly.

Celestia stared at her till she turned to her computer. "Alright." She tapped a few keys and smiled. "Well, you're all good to go. Cheerilee is here and can show you where your locker is. I've put it a few lockers down from Berry's." Celestia wrote down a number on a piece of paper and passed it to Sunset.

"Thanks, Principal Celestia." Cherry gave her a warm smile as she stood up.

"Let's go find Cheerilee and your locker." Cherry told Sunset as they left the office.


Berry tied the trash bag shut and lifted it out of the can and grunted. She carried it to the door and dropped it down.

"Absolutely disgusting." She scoffed. She glanced at the clock and sighed. "Seriously? It's only one thirty? Cherry and Sunset have only been gone for an hour, yet it feels like an eternity."

A tugging on her boot strings got her attention and she glanced down at Ruby pulling the strings and putting one in her mouth.

"Wait what? You were in the living room, not the kitchen." Her eyes widened. "No way." She bent down and picked Ruby up. She carried Ruby to the living room and set down, then stepped back a few paces. Ruby stared at her and started to crawl to her and Berry gasped.

"Oh my god!" She exclaimed excitedly. "You're crawling now." She dropped down to Ruby's level and grinned at her. Ruby poked Berry's nose and giggled. Berry planted a kiss on Ruby's forehead and laughed with her.

"Wait, how far can you crawl?" Berry asked, standing up and walking to the dining rooms entrance. "Come here, Ruby." She grimaced at that. "Yuck, sounds like I'm calling a dog. Never doing that again."

Ruby stared at her and slowly crawled to her and stopped in front of her.

Berry giggled excitedly and picked her up. "You did amazing, I'm so proud of you." She gave her another kiss. Ruby laughed then threw up on the front of her shirt.

Berry sighed. "Cute moment, over." She slowly started heading up the stairs with Ruby into the bathroom.


"This here is the Spanish and German room, it's the class I teach." Cheerilee pointed out to Sunset and Cherry as she gave them a tour of the school. "Sometimes I work in the library also."

Sunsets eyes lit up. "Library? Where is that at?"

Cherry giggled. "Sunset really likes books." She explained to Cheerilee.

Cheerilee smiled. "Me too, we got that in common. The library is right down there at the end of the hall on the right." She pointed in the direction she mentioned.

She stopped in front of a row of lockers. "A113, A113." She muttered to herself. "Ah, here you are." Cheerilee opened the locker. "This is your locker. You can buy a locker from the front office for five dollars and get the five dollars back at the end of the year if you return the lock to the office staff."

Cherry nodded. "We can do that. Berry will need one too, especially after last year."

Cheerilee nodded. "Agreed."

Sunset looked between the two. "What happened last year?" She asked.

Cherry gave a sigh. "Just some bullies vandalized her stuff and wrote derogatory stuff in her locker."

Sunset felt anger rush through her. "That's bucked up."

Cheerilee looked confused to her. "I'm sorry, what?"

Cherry rolled her eyes. "It's Sunset's unique way of cursing."

Cheerilee nodded. "Just don't do it during school hours, Celestia and Luna are strict on no swearing allowed."

Sunset rolled her eyes. "Yeah, sure. Can we leave now, I want to go hang out with Berry and Ruby." She shut the locker and memorized where it was and headed to the entrance of the school.

"She has Berry's attitude I see." Cheerilee remarked dryly.

"At times." Cherry admitted. "Very rare though."

"Uh huh. Anyway I have to get back to setting my classroom up. Berry and Sunset will get their schedules on the first day." Cheerilee waved and walked down the hall, leaving Cherry alone.

Cherry ran to catch up to Sunset. She was leaning against the car and staring at the sky, admiring the blue sky and birds.

"What was that about, Sunset?" Cherry asked.

Sunset jumped slightly. "I'm not a huge fan of authority to be honest. It seems weird, having my words be restricted."

Cherry nodded. "Just don't let it happen, I'd hate for you to get suspended or kicked out of the school if it gets worse. Deal?"

Sunset gave a curt nod.

"Anyways, we can't go home just yet. Berry asked me to take you to the phone store so they can put your phone on my plan." Cherry told her.

Sunset rubbed the back of her head. "Oh. Right, I forgot about that."

Cherry unlocked the car and both girls plopped down in the seats. Cherry pulled out onto the road as Sunset gazed out the window.

Cherry turned the radio on and started humming to herself.

"So I got some extra money recently and was thinking of getting you a bed instead of you sleeping on Berry's floor. Would you like that?" Cherry asked.

"Well, I'm not exactly sleeping on the floor." Sunset admitted sheepishly.

"Where are you-?" Cherry began her question and her eyes widened. She gave Sunset a wicked smile. "I see. I suppose I could get a bigger bed for you and Berry." She winked at Sunset's blushing face.

"I don't know. When she brought me to your place, she said she didn't wanna be alone and asked me to sleep with her and it's been like that ever since." Sunset said cautiously.

Cherry looked both ways before turning right and flicked her turn signal off. "I see. I assume it's been helping because she's been a lot more open with me and calmer."

Sunset nodded. "It's nice. I haven't slept with anyone in years."

Cherry nodded as she pulled into the stores parking lot. "The last time I slept with anyone was when Berry slept in my bed after having a bad dream. She used to get them a lot."

"Makes sense. She can be very cuddly, is that the term?" Sunset remarked.

Cherry nodded. "She can be at times. Mainly with you and Ruby." She sighed wistfully. "She hasn't hugged me in years."

Sunset placed a hand on her shoulder. "Maybe that'll change someday." She offered a reassuring smile.

Cherry forced a smile onto her face. "Hopefully."

She put the car in park and lead Sunset into the store.

Sunset's eyes widened as she looked around.

"Wow." She managed. "This looks so futuristic."

Cherry snickered. "I know, right." She strode up the desk and started talking to the employee. Sunset wandered around the store, admiring the shiny devices.

"See anything you like?" An employee walked up to her, smiling.

"I'm just looking around, bored. Thanks though." Sunset replied. She looked at the name tag. Minuette, huh interesting name. Sounds vaguely familiar she decided.

Minuette nodded. "Anytime. If you change your mind, come find me." She smiled warmly and walked off into a back room.

Cherry found Sunset staring at a movie playing on a TV. Cherry grinned and walked slowly and placed a hand on Sunset's shoulder. "Boo." She whispered in her ear.

"Ahh!" Sunset yelped and jumped, spinning around. "You scared me."

"Sorry, not sorry." Cherry chuckled. "Ready to go? Your phone is activated and all that jazz." She handed it to Sunset who gratefully accepted it.

"Thank you." Sunset smiled up at the older girl.

"Not a problem. Don't mention it." She waved a hand. She nodded at the TV. "Whatcha watching?"

"I have no clue." Sunset admitted.

Cherry studied the tv scenes for a few moments. "Looks like Lord of the Rings. Good bunch of movies."

Sunset nodded.

"You shall not pass!" A old man shouted from the tv, slamming a staff into a concrete bridge.

"Fellowship of the Ring." Cherry pointed out. "First movie in the series."

"Berry is probably wondering where we are." Sunset replied, glancing down at her phone.

Cherry's eyes widened. "Oh shoot. We should head home." Sunset nodded her agreement and the two took off to the exit where the car was parked.

Cherry slide the key into the ignition and turned the car on.

"How is that everything is so close to the apartment?" Sunset asked as Cherry pulled onto the street.

Cherry chuckled. "I specially chose this apartment because it's within five to ten minutes to everything we need. Berry's school, the store and other places."

She stopped at a stop sign before deeming it safe to go through and she pulled into her parking spot.

They made their way through the apartment complex, stopping only to collect the mail which Cherry was flipping through as they walked. Cherry tossed Sunset the key and she opened the door.

As soon as she opened it, she was grabbed and yanked through the door.

"Ahhh!" She screamed. Cherry's head shot up and she ran inside, kicking the door shut.

"Sunset! Are you good?" Cherry shouted.

"Berry, what the hay?" Sunset demanded. Cherry rushed into the room and took in both girls laying on the floor on top of each other.

She burst out laughing and soon was bent over laughing, her face bright red.

"What is so funny?" Sunset demanded.

"N-nothing. Just give me a minute." Cherry coughed out.

Berry was bright red when she realized how close her hand was to Sunset's chest. She instantly moved it away.

"So, something amazing happened." She stated excitedly.

"What's that?" Sunset asked as she dusted herself off and stood up.

"That!" Berry pointed to Ruby.

"Uh Berry, that's Ruby. She's been here for eleven months now." Cherry pointed out.

"No, that's not it. Watch this!" Berry picked Ruby up and set her down near the couch.

"Step this way." Berry instructed as she stepped to the kitchen entrance.

Sunset and Cherry looked at each other and shrugged, complying with Berry's orders. Ruby looked at the three and started crawling to them.

Cherry and Sunset stared in surprise.

"Awww." Sunset said, grinning.

Cherry gasped. "That's amazing, Berry!" She gushed. "I'm proud of her. How long has she been doing this?"

"Hours! Ever since you two left to go to the school this morning." Berry exclaimed. "We've literally done this all over the downstairs, she hasn't gotten to climbing the stairs yet."

Berry spun around and hugged her sister. Cherry stared in shock and Sunset smiled at her smugly.

She mouthed the words "told you so" to Cherry and continued her smug smile.

Cherry slowly hugged her sister back and smiled.

"Love ya, big sis." Berry whispered. "Thanks. For everything."

"I love you too. And it's not a problem." Cherry whispered back, kissing her younger sisters forehead.


"Let's see, we share economics, science, world history and cinematography." Sunset read off her schedule, standing next to Berry's locker as Berry put her backpack in her locker.

Berry sighed as she pulled out a book.

"I hate math with a burning passion." Berry announced.

Sunset snickered and rolled her eyes. "I quite enjoy it."

Berry giggled and hip bumped her. "Cool, you can do my math homework then."

Sunset sighed. "I can't just do your homework. That's cheating."

Berry rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah." She stole a glance at the schedule Sunset held. "We also share lunch."

"Lunch isn't a class." Sunset retorted.

"We still have the same lunch hour." Berry shot back and waved to a passing girl.

Sunset sighed and conceded. "Fine, you have a point."

Berry pumped her fist in the air and grinned.

Her grin faded at three boys approaching. "Oh boy, here we go."

"What is it?" Sunset asked, following her gaze.

"Hey drunky." One snickered.

Berry gritted her teeth and held her book tighter.

"Been in the hospital recently?" The second piped in, laughing.

The third rolled his eyes. "Nah, if she was, she'd be dead from alcohol poisoning." He joined his friends in laughing.

Sunset narrowed her eyes and stepped forward.

"Watch yourself, or you'll regret it." She warned.

"Or what?" The second taunted.

"Yeah or wha-?" The first tried to say before gasping.

Sunset shoved her book into his stomach hard.

"Or it'll get worse than that." She said coldly, with a threatening undertone.

The two lifted their friend up and glared at her.

"You just fucked up." The third snapped.

Sunset smirked as the three retreated. "Oh, I don't think so."

They retreated around the corner, shooting death glares her way.

Humans are fucking cruel, Sunset mused to herself. They don't really deserve free will, well except Berry, Cherry and Ruby. A smile tugged at her lips at the thought of the three. She was pulled from her musings when a pair of arms hugged her.

"That...was...AMAZING!" Berry gushed, staring into Sunset's eyes with admiration. "Nobody has ever stood up for me like that, other than Cherry."

Sunset returned the hug. "Who were those three?"

"Hoops, Score and Dumb Bell." Berry replied.

Sunset tightened her grip. "They won't bother you again, I promise you that." She smiled at Berry. "Ever." She added.

Berry smiled and rested against Sunset's shoulder.

The bell rang and Berry jumped back, blushing. "That's the bell. We gotta get to class." She grabbed her English book and smiled at Sunset. "See you in third hour. Don't forgot our locks from the office." She took off running and gave a wave.

Sunset smiled and returned the wave. She headed for her locker and grabbed her Chemistry and Integrated Physics book.

"I can be late, i need to get our locks." Sunset muttered aloud.

She kicked her locker shut and headed to the office. She opened the door and headed for the desk. The receptionist looked up and frowned.

"You should be in class." She scolded.

Sunset rolled her eyes. "I needed to get two locks." She pulled out a ten dollar bill and slid it to her.

Grumbling, the receptionist took it and pulled a white tray with locks on it. She picked two and handed them to Sunset.

"I'll write you a pass but only this once. Don't let it happen again." She warned.

"Yeah, yeah." Sunset muttered softly.

The receptionist raised an eyebrow before writing on a piece of paper.

"Here." She handed it to her. "The codes are on the back. The white one is written in purple, grey is written in green. Now get to class."

Sunset snorted and headed for the door. She went to Berry's locker first and put the grey one on it. She whipped her phone out and took a picture of the paper and sent it to Berry.

Sunset-Hey, Berry. Put a lock on your locker. The grey locks combination is wrote in green.

Okay, cool. Thanks, Sunshim. -Berry. A smiley face popped up after Berry's text and Sunset gave a smile.

Sunset strode to her locker and slapped her lock on. She took off down the hall and reached a room with a shut door.

She took a deep breath and knocked.

A pink girl opened the door.

"Wowza, you're late!" She exclaimed.

Sunset was instantly put off by her enthusiasm this early in the morning.

"Brilliant observation, smarty." Sunset grumbled.

She strolled in and handed the teacher the note.

"Were you caught up thinking about cherry chongas? I personally prefer to call then cherry chimmychongas, but to each their own." She followed Sunset to her desk in the back and Sunset tossed her book and slid into her seat.

She glanced up at the pink girl, who was standing still and staring at her.

"What do you want now?" Sunset finally asked.

"You didn't answer my question. Cherry chonga or cherry chimmychongas?" The pink girl asked again.

Sunset rolled her eyes. "If I answer, will you leave me alone? It's too early in the morning for this. It's like nine am."

"Actually, it's eight thirty nine." The pink girl pointed out cheerfully.

Sunset groaned and slammed her head into her desk.

"Pinkie Pie! Quit harassing the newbie." A girl with rainbow hair walked up and grabbed her arm, pulling her back.

"Sorry about that. Pinkie can be a lot." The rainbow haired girl said apologetically.

Sunset rolled her eyes. "It's whatever." She opened her ICP book and started to read the table of contents.

"Uh yeah." The rainbow girl muttered as she went back to her seat.

"Alright, everyone. Quiet down. I'm passing out a syllabus of my expectations for each student this year in my class." The teacher said, standing at the front. "Pass one over you to the student behind you, please."

He turned around and wrote his name, Mr. Whooves on the white board.

"I'm not gonna be a strict teacher or be mean. We'll be doing some pretty cool experiments this year. Just respect me and I'll respect you. And don't destroy my classroom, please." Mr.Whooves said, smiling.

Sunset opened her syllabus and started reading. Basic stuff she realized. This class will be so easy, she mused to herself. She zoned out till the bell rang.


Berry groaned as she read her syllabus from Cranky's class. She read the title in her head: AP English and grumbled incoherent words.

"I demand total respect, I don't care if you have a bad day or lack of sleep, you will treat me with respect." Cranky snapped.

"Oh come onnn!" The same rainbow haired girl groaned out. "You say the same thing every year, we get it."

"Well, Rainbow Dash, since you get it so well, you'll be staying after school with me today and cleaning my room." Cranky said sternly.

Rainbow gawked at him. "It's the first day of school. And your class is clean, dude!"

"Well, dude." Cranky said as he sat down at his desk. "Think before you speak."

The class giggled and Rainbow turned angry red and slumped down in her seat.

Berry rolled her eyes and went back to doodling on her syllabus. The bell rang and a rainbow blur shot out of the class. Berry packed up her belongings and tossed the syllabus into her binder before heading to her locker.

She smiled faintly as she was the last out the class. She preferred it this way, less opportunities to get ran over and trampled by the students trying to escape Cranky's class.

She approached her locker and started to put the combination in when a shadow fell over her. She turned around and shrank in on herself before giving a sigh of relief.

"Hey, Sunshim. Don't do that, you scared me. I thought you were...." Berry trailed off.

Sunset chuckled. "Hoops, Score and Dumb Bell? I told ya, you don't gotta worry about them anymore." She placed a hand on Berry's shoulder and smiled at her.

Berry grinned up at her.

"What do you want for lunch? I was thinking a hamburger and a pop with some fries." Berry asked as she slid her binder into the top shelf.

Sunset gave her a look and shrugged. "We don't eat meat in Equestria so I was thinking a salad. Remember, I first ate grass when I got here?"

Berry giggled at the memory. "True, that was a funny memory. It makes sense that a horse wouldn't eat meat."

"Pony." Sunset corrected instinctively. "I wasn't a horse." She chuckled. "Horse is kinda an insult back home."

Berry's eyes widened. "I'm sorry, I didn't know." She shivered. "Please don't be mad at me."

Sunset raised an eyebrow and cocked her head slightly before chuckling.

"Oh, Berry I could never be mad at you. It's my fault for not telling you." Sunset said.

Berry gave her a soft smile and leaned into her.

"Fair enough. We should probably head to the lunchroom and get the best tables." Berry snickered.

"Lead the way." Sunset said. "No, seriously lead the way. Cheerilee didn't show me at all when Cherry and I came here last week."

Berry laughed. "It's this way." She shut her locker and locked it before walking down the hall with Sunset next to her.

"Speaking of Miss Cheerilee, did you hear she's gonna be teaching our cinematography class in addition to her normal language classes?" Berry asked.

Sunset shook her head. "No, I didn't hear anything about that. It didn't even say the teachers name on the schedule for that class."

"I noticed that too. Very interesting." Berry agreed. She glanced down and noticed how close her and Sunset's hands were and turned slightly red.

She shook her head to quit thinking about that.

"Something wrong?" Sunset asked.

"Nope, just thinking." Berry answered.

"Alright, then." Sunset replied. She didn't believe her, but wasn't gonna push it.

Berry grabbed a tray and slide down the line.

"So you pick up what you want, you go to that keypad and put your code in. If you want extra stuff, like a water or chips it costs extra." Berry explained. She pointed to it with her free hand.

"Gotcha." Sunset replied. She picked up a salad and added a sauce on her tray with some fries. She watched Berry put her code in and did the same. She was mind blown by how advanced this world's technology was.

She slid into a empty seat next to Berry and looked around her.

"Why is everyone separated like this?" She questioned.

Berry shrugged. "Clubs like to sit with each other, similar interests and all. Makes the day go by easier." She took a bite of her hamburger.

Sunset grimaced down at her fork and struggling to get it out of the packaging.

"Who the hell thought putting this fork in plastic wrap was a good idea?" She grumbled as it fumbled out of her hand onto the table.

Berry giggled at the scene playing out next to her. "Do you want some help with that?"

"Yes please." Sunset admitted as Berry took it from her hands, bit down on the plastic and ripped it open with her teeth.

"Tada, one spork." Berry announced proudly, handing it to Sunset.

Sunset stared at her. "I never knew teeth had so many uses."

Berry gave her a wink before taking a sip of her pop. "Teeth can be used for a lot of things. Opening things, biting people if needed. You get the gist."

Sunset stabbed a tomato and started chewing. "Interesting." She gazed down at her salad. "This would be better with black olives."

Berry grinned at her and reached into her pocket. She tossed her a small can of black olives.

"What the hell, Berry?" Sunset burst out laughing. "Do you just carry black olives everywhere you go?"

Berry nodded with a smug grin. "You never know when olive emergencies will arise. Such as now, with your salad." She joined Sunset in laughing.

They looked up as a few girls slid into the seats across from them.

"Hey Shoeshine, hey Sea Swirl." Berry greeted. Sunset stared into her salad and quietly added the olives before eating.

"How's it going?" Sea Swirl asked, smiling.

"Good, you." Berry replied.

Sea Swirl shrugged and took a sip of her water. "Could be better, Harshwhinny is being an ass today. And it's only the first day too, God help me if it gets worse as the year goes on."

Shoeshine nodded in Sunset's direction. "Who's this?" She asked Berry.

"Sunset, this is Shoeshine and Sea Swirl." Berry introduced her. "We went to middle school together."

"Hi." Sunset said softly as she tossed a fry into her mouth. "These are nothing like hay fries." She scoffed.

"Hay fries?" Sea Swirl questioned, with a raised eyebrow.

"It's a Manehatten thing, she's from there. It's a weird type of fry." Berry quickly interjected and Sunset nodded her agreement.

Shoeshine bit her pizza. "Huh, never knew that. I gotta find a hay fry stand next time I go visit."

Berry and Sunset exchanged looks before laughing.

"What is it?" Shoeshine demanded with a mouthful of pizza. Sea Swirl rolled her eyes in disgust.

"Honestly, Shoeshine. I don't get how you can eat food like that." She scoffed.

Sunset waved her hand. "Hay fries are a gift from God. Good luck finding a stand." She and Berry started laughing harder at that.

A spoonful of apple sauce landed on Sunset's shirt as the table went quiet.

"What the hell?" Sunset snapped and her eyes searched the cafeteria before they fell on three laughing boys from earlier. She slammed her hands down on the table and stood.

"Sunset, please sit down." Berry pleaded.

Sunset gestured to the apple sauce that splattered on Berry after hitting Sunset

"They got applesauce on you. This cannot stand." Sunset exclaimed.

Berry slumped into her seat and ate a fry. "It's not important. I'm used to it."

Sunset shook her head. "I said you didn't have to deal with them again and I meant it."

She stomped her way to the table where the boys were at.

Berry watched her walk over there and smiled softly. This didn't go unnoticed by her friends, who exchanged quick grins.

"Well, well." Shoeshine purred. "Someone has a crush."

Berry turned red. "I do not." She exclaimed.

"Oh, please. You've been hugging her all day and watching her walk. It's evident." Sea Swirl pointed out. "You even sat next to her in Economics. You typically sit with us."

Berry sighed. "Fine, I like her. So what?"

"So ask her out, stupid." Shoeshine rolled her eyes. "Ow!" She rubbed her shoulder where Sea Swirl smacked her.

"Be nice, don't call Berry stupid." She scolded. "Anyway, I think you should ask her out. Take her to the movies, see how things work. It's not like she lives with you." Sea Swirl laughed.

Berry gave a nervous chuckle. "Yeah about that. She actually does live with us."

Shoeshine choked on her Pepsi.

"For how long?" She asked.

Berry put a finger on her chin. "Three months or so? She sleeps in my room, she's very cuddly. Nice to sleep with someone again to be honest."

Sea Swirl let out a cough. "Let me get this straight. You like her, she lives with you and you two share a bed every night?"

Berry nodded.

"Then what the hell are you waiting for? You're practically already dating if she lives with you and you sleep together." Sea Swirl demanded.

Berry shrugged. "I'm not sure. What if she rejects me?"

Shoeshine rolled her eyes. "She willingly gets in bed with you, I think her feelings are pretty damn evident."

Berry nodded. "You're right, I should ask her out. We can go see a movie."

Sea Swirl gave her a grin. "Good shit. Go get her."

A loud crashing sound got their attention and they turned to look. Score had apple sauce and chocolate milk all over his hair and shirt.

The cafeteria burst out laughing at the three boys and they stormed out the cafeteria.

Sunset walked back to her table and sat down, picking at her salad.

Berry smiled at her and leaned against with her head on her shoulder. Shoeshine and Sea Swirl shot another quick grin to each other. Unknown to the group, two freshman boys had been watching where Sunset went.


"I swear, if I get one more syllabus, I'm killing myself." Sunset groaned.

Berry chuckled. "Me too. I don't get why they give us one every year for each class. I think I still have all mine from last year and only minor things have changed. They could at least make it more entertaining, like a slideshow."

"I'm just ready to go home and rest. Bed sounds nice." Sunset said.

"It does." Berry admitted. "I'm looking forward to seeing Ruby, I hate her being away from me for so long."

"I agree. That kid is pretty awesome." Sunset snickered as she remembered Ruby crawling up the stairs last night and Berry freaking out from excitement.

Berry shut her locker and slipped her back pack on. "Ready to go?"

"Mhm." Sunset already had her bag on. The two wormed their way through the crowd to the front door before Sunset felt two hands grabbing her arms.

"What the hell is the big idea?" She and Berry spun around to face to smaller teenagers.

Berry groaned. "What do you want, Snips and Snails?"

"Nothing. Except to talk to her." Snails pointed.

"It was like, totally awesome what you did to Score, Hoops and Dumb Bell." Snips piped in.

"Yeah! You're like, our hero now." Snails added.

"Uh huh." Sunset said nervously as she pulled her arms. "Can you two please let go of my arms, it was really nothing?"

"Nothing? It was spectacular!" Snips shouted.

Berry rolled her eyes. "As much as we love your company, our ride is here. Goodbye."

She pulled Sunset's arm free from Snips grip and gave Snails a look.

He sheepishly let go and Berry opened the backseat, shoving Sunset in before throwing herself in next to her.

Cherry looked in the rear view mirror and gave the two a grin. "Looks like you two made a few new friends."

Berry shivered. "Please, just drive."

Cherry gave a laugh and complied with the request.


Author's Note

This is probably my favorite ship so far for Sunset. Sunset and Twilight is too overrated, too alike in my opinion. I'm having fun writing this, it's gonna focus more on her home life than at school.
