“Have I ever said you have a good singing voice?” Octavia asked as we settled down in the library, watching young me read a book about the portal and pull the dark black cloak tighter around herself.

“Yes all the time,” I smirked. “Thank you.”

“So what book were you reading?” Vinyl asked she glanced around the library. I inhaled a breath and looked at her.

“It was about the portal. More so where came from and what it did. I knew it went to a different world but I didn’t know where or what it was like. I wanted to know more,” I explained as the door opened. “We said some awful stuff to each other here so prepare yourselves.”

I held my breath as Celestia and two royal guards walked in. The others looked curious at what was gonna happen with a mix of nervousness.

“What are you doing?” Celestia demanded. Young me stared up at her in shock.

“P-Princess Celestia?”

“I thought it made it clear you couldn’t be here until you made friends!”

“I can’t make friends! Nothing worked!” Young me shouted.

“You didn’t even try!” Celestia shouted back as I approached her. The two guards lowered their spears and I could see Bon Bon gulp nervously.

“Those look pointy,” she muttered.

“You’re a hypocrite!” Young me shouted. “You have no friends! I hate you!” Princess Celestia recoiled as her eyes widened in shock as I watched myself teleport away, the black cloak falling to the ground. My friends stared at me as Twilight shivered.

“I’m sorry it went that way between you two. I never knew this happened,” Twilight admitted as I gave a bitter laugh.

“It’s not something she would tell you. I don’t like talking about it.”

“When I found you asleep on the floor in Cheerilees room, you said you’re a hypocrite and you have no friends and I hate you,” Lyra focused on me. “You were dreaming about this weren’t you?”

“Yes,” I admitted as I leaned against mom. “I was. It’s not a good memory.”

“I can see,” Octavia muttered. “I don’t think I can look at our principle the same after this.”

“I agree,” Bon Bon muttered as the scene changed once again and I tilted my head in confusion.

“I don’t remember this,” I muttered as Celestia knocked on the door of my house. My eyes slowly widened. “This must have been after I ran through the portal and she came to the house to talk to me. Probably a lecture.”

“You were right,” Celestia sniffed. “I don’t know the first thing about friendship. I should have tried to understand you better. But maybe we can figure it out together-” she froze when the door opened slowly and we all stared at my empty house.

“I take back what I just said,” Octavia sighed. “She made a good apology.”

“I never knew she did this,” I admitted sadly. I teleported us to the portal rooms hallway. “I know I’m not violent anymore so prepare yourselves.”

“Uh why?” Twilight asked as we looked at the two guards. Young me stormed around the corner and yanked the spears away and tossed them behind her.

“Let me through please,” she demanded.

“No. You aren’t allowed access,” one said stoically.

“I asked nicely,” young me slammed the two together and tossed them against the wall, leaving them groaning. “Sweet Celestia! That might have been too much. I didn’t want to kill or hurt you guys seriously. I just wanted to stun you for a bit. Are you okay?” She leaned over a guard with a nervous expression. The guard groaned and nodded as young me galloped to the portal and jumped through as the alarm started going off.

“At least you checked on them,” Derpy laid a wing on my and quickly kissed my cheek.

“We never stood a chance!” A guard groaned as Princess Celestia galloped into the room.

“We’re sorry!” The other moaned. Celestia sighed as she helped them up.

“It’s alright. Don’t apologize. You did your best,” Celestia soothed. “Get yourselves to the medics and get checked out. Take a few days off.” The guards nodded before shakily trotting off. Celestia sighed as she stepped to the portal and pressed her hoof to the portal. “Stay safe Sunset. Come back soon.”

“I-I never knew she was this distraught about it,” I mumbled. “I always thought she never cared.”

“She was pretty saddened when you stole my crown. She told me and Cadence and the others that she had hoped you would come back and take your rightful place as her student. She didn’t talk for a while afterwards Luna said. Just stayed in the house you lived in,” Twilight admitted.

“Can you give me a book to talk to her when I go back home? I will think about it,” I said. Twilight gave me a big smile.

“I’d love to.”

“Well we have to go home now,” I smiled at the assembled group of ponies. Lemon Hearts, Equestrian Lyra and Bon Bon, Minuette, Twinkleshine, Moondancer and Amethyst and the other elements. Starlight stood quietly off to the side. High Winds, Soarin and Surprise stood smiling.

“We will be back soon,” Cheerilee smiled at her double. “We have a lot to discuss.”

“That we do,” she replied.

“Sunset look!” Derpy shouted as she did a loop in the air above my head. Thank God for tall ceilings. “I’m flying!”

“She took a bit but we got her going,” Surprise smirked. “She is going to be a pretty decent flyer if she keeps at it when she comes back.”

“I’m pretty damn proud,” High Winds chuckled. “It’s very nice to know you.”

“Likewise!” Derpy landed on her hooves and high hoofed her. I approached the group of ponies I went to school with.

“Thanks you guys for giving me another chance,” we did a group hug and I swear Amethyst was crush me to death.

“Not a problem,” Minuette smirked. “Don’t stay away for too long.”

“I won’t,” I promised.

“Hurry back soon yall!” Applejack smiled.

“Wait!” Pinkie screamed. “I have something for you all that Earth Lyra wanted.” She reached into her hair and pulled out a picture. We all crowed around it and I gave gasp.

“When did you take this?” I asked in awe. I levitated a picture of us all smiling in front of the castle.

“When you first got here,” Rarity smiled. “Rainbow took it.” I glanced at the rainbow maned pegasus wearing a smug grin.

“Thanks Dash.” She gave me a wink.

“No problem.” I trotted to the portal before I remembered something. I quickly galloped to Equestrian Lyra and Bon Bon and made a bubble around us.

“Hey Bon Bon?”

“Uh yeah?” She asked as she poked the bubble with a hoof.

“I know you’re a special agent with SMILE. I accidentally looked at the files once in Celestias office. Your secret is safe with me Bon Bon.” Her tense face instantly relaxed. “Or should I say Sweetie Drops.”

“It’s Bon Bon now,” she smiled. “I like it better than Sweetie Drops to be honest.” I gave a nod as I canceled the spell. Twilight was holding a book and a black box in her magic.

“Here’s the book you requested. Celestia is made aware of your request and will be waiting for you to write her first. And here’s the jewels for the sirens. Amethyst and Rarity were a great help. Sea Swirl helped a bit too,” she gave me a hug as I took the items.

“Thanks Twi,” I stepped back as Earth Bon Bon and Lyra stepped to the portal with the others and jumped through. “We will be back soon.”

“Surprise! Get your head out of the portal please!” Soarin sighed as High Winds burst out laughing. Surprise stepped back and groaned and straightened her mane.

“Never do that,” she moaned and sat down, resting against High Winds. I gave a wave as I closed my eyes and stepped through the portal, landing on top of a bunch of legs.

“Why do we always go through as a group?” Bon Bon groaned as she stood up. “Woah!” She shakily stood up and pressed a hand against the wall of the statue.

“As much as I love Equestria, I missed my legs,” Octavia sighed. “My head hurts.”

“Ditto!” Lyra and Bon Bon said in unison.

“Hey there Shimmer,” I glanced behind me at Aria, Adagio and Sonata standing behind me with smiles.

“Hey you guys!” I grinned back and qaccepted Adagios stretched out hand as Sonata helped Mom up. “Got you guys your jewels so you can sing and come to Equestria sometime.”

“Thanks Sunset,”, Adagio smiled as I handed each of them the shiny red gems. “This means a lot to us.”

“No problem. Twilight enchanted them so they are indestructible too. They can’t get destroyed at all. They can’t be stolen either. They’ll automatically reappear wherever you left them in the house.” Sonata gave me a tight hug that could rival Pinkies and Amethysts strength.

“I’m gonna go sleep this migraine off,” Bon Bon moaned as she stumbled away. “I’ll see you guys Monday at school.”

“Same here,” Vinyl mumbled. “I’m exhausted. That was a literal fucking trip over there. We got into hella shit.”

“What did you all get into?” Aria asked with a raised eyebrow. Me and mom made eye contact and started laughing.

“It’s a long story. How much time ya got?” I asked. The three sisters looked at each other.

“We got enough,” Adagio announced.

“Good. Come to my house and we will go over everything.”
