Every Dark Night Turns Into Day

“I’m still surprised Cadence said we won,” I said as I threw some trash from the gym into a garbage can. “I thought for sure they would try to force a loss on us and run away.”

“We’re not all bad you know?” Me and Bon Bon jumped slightly and stared at a blue haired girl along with the others who had forced Twilight to release the magic. “Or well I’m not. The others are. I’m Coco.”

“Hey!” Another blued hair girl with goggles glared at her.

“Uh huh,” I said as I folded my arms. “And what exactly can we do for you all?”

“Well I’m going to Canterlot High Monday,” Coco answered. “Transferring schools with Twilight. Rarity convinced me to do so. Don’t have to deal with Suri anymore.”

“Nice,” I gave her a honest smile. “I’m Lyra. That’s my girlfriend Bon Bon.”

“I know!” A green haired girl shouted. “You guys are awesome. I’ve been a fan since like that diss track you guys put out. I’m Lemon Zest, that’s Indigo Zap, that’s Sour Sweet, Sunny Flare and Sugarcoat.”

“Remember when I told you a girl from Crystal Prep liked it?” Bon Bon nudged me. “I guess this is her.”

“Cool I guess,” I muttered. We looked around awkwardly till Indigo coughed.

“Well uh hope your statue gets fixed,” she offered weakly.

“Why so you guys can vandalize it again?” Bon Bon asked bitterly.

“No,” Sunny Flare stepped forward. “We seriously mean that. I’m sorry about it getting destroyed.”

“Sure,” I said dryly. I didn’t trust them at all. They were most likely lying to get on our good side to use us.

“Well it’s nice meeting you,” Coco said as she looked around. “I’d love to help clean up since we partially made this mess but uh we have to leave. The buses are here and Crystal Prep bus drivers can be a bit snippy.”

“Okay,” I said coolly as we resumed our cleaning up. The rest of my group was cleaning up as the Rainbooms folded up tables and chairs. Cherry Berry was trying to catch the cmc and the rest of Sunset’s sisters. Dinky was probably the only kid helping but eh. Sunset was helping Trixie, Lavender and Fuchsia pack up our instruments with Vinyl and Octavia.

“You all should go on tour around Canterlot!” Lemon exclaimed. “You have more than one fan. There’s thousands of people in town who would go.”

“Really?” Bon Bon questioned as we made eye contact.

“Really!” Lemon said with probably the biggest grin I’ve ever seen.

“We will talk to the others,” I promised. “Up to them.”

“Epic!” Lemon announced as she and the others left. Indigo tossed some trash away before leaving the gym.

“See you Monday!” Coco shouted with a wave.

“She seems okay,” Bon Bon commented as our eyes followed them outside.

“For a Shadowbolt,” I agreed. “Twilights last day is Monday too. Apparently Cadence took her home in her car so she didn’t have to take the bus.”

“Makes sense,” I answered as I caught a broom Lightning threw at me. “Thank you!”

“What are the plans after this?” Vinyl asked.

“Uh not sure? Maybe milkshakes with the Rainbooms. And then we have a sleepover with Sunsets family at Cheerilees house,” Derpy answered. “If you guys are interested of course.”

“I’m down,” I shrugged. “Are the Rainbooms joining us at her house?”

“Yes,” Sunset answered as she slung her guitar case on her back. “We’re starting over. They’ve been there before. Get ready for Rarity being crazy with fashion.”

“I heard that!” Rarity called out as she put a jacket on. Sunset tossed a smirk over her shoulder.

“I know!”

I sat cross legged on the floor of Sunset’s room as I bit my pizza slice.

“So what now?” Lightning questioned from Sunset’s bed. “You’re friends with the people who backstabbed you so where does that leave us?”

“We’re all still friends,” Sunset reassured her. “Trust me, I’m not abandoning you guys. Not after all we’ve been through. I meant what I said when I called us family. I’m not quite calling the rainbooms family yet but maybe one day.”

“Okay,” Lightning sighed and threw a pop can at Rainbow.

“Ow!” Rainbow glared at Lightning. “What was that for?”

“Drink it,” Lightning said simply. “Duh.” Rainbow shrugged and drank it in one go while we all stared at her with wide eyes.

“So Twilight,” Octavia nodded at the quiet girl sitting with Fluttershy. “Excited for Canterlot High?”

“Oh uhm yes very much so!” Twilight said enthusiastically. “It seems way more friendly than Crystal Prep was.”

“We try,” I smirked as I stole Octavias tea and sipped some as Octavia gave me a disgusted look. “Ew, what the hell is this?”

“Tea. British tea,” Octavia clarified with a smirk.

“Ew you can have it back. Never again am I drinking tea you like,” I grumbled as I shoved the bottle back her way.

“Sounds like your aunts and mom are having fun downstairs,” Applejack said as she paused the video game she was playing with Silver Spoon. Surprisingly she had instantly taken to the girl.

“Things are about to get real awkward Trixie thinks,” Trixie announced as she sped walked into the room. “Firstly, Cheerilee and Sunsets aunts are getting drunk downstairs to celebrate Berry and Minuettes engagement. Never thought Cheerilee would get drunk but Trixie supposes it’s appropriate for this.”

“Okay,” Sunset raised an eyebrow. “How is that about to make things awkward?”

“Not that,” Trixie shook her head. “That is.” We all stared as the other Twilight walked into the room.

“I came as fast as I could. I misplaced the book accidentally during one of my book shelf cleaning and then I had to deal with Starlight brainwashing the others in an attempt to be friends and then I had to deal with Spike screaming about spiders all night. It was the weirdest thing I’ve ever had to deal with this week and let me tell you, that’s tame for Ponyville,” Twilight said as she looked at all of us. We all looked at her nervously as she made eye contact with our worlds Twilight.

“Scratch that. That’s the weirdest thing I’ve dealt with all week.”
