Chapter two: The other side's not that easy either...
Freak, demon, outsider, devil. These were all the names one girl was called. After the Fall Formal incident, Sunset Shimmer had kept to herself, because she was traumatized by the incident. Sunset Shimmer walked into her empty and lonely apartment, and dropped her book bag on the floor. She laid down on her couch and began to drift off to sleep. Sunset woke up to the sound of her cell phone ringing [Monster by Skillet]. Sunset groaned and grab her phone, answering it.
"Hello?" she answered in a dry tone.
"Sunset, I need you to cover Carol's shift over at the motel." a voice stated over the phone.
"Mr. Fondleberg, this is my day off!" Sunset replied.
"No buts! Do it or I'll cut your pay!" Mr. Fondleberg shouted.
"I'll be there in a while." Sunset sighed as she hung the phone up. She stood up and walked into her bedroom, which was pretty organized. She walked into the bathroom and took a quick shower before changing into her work clothes. She was now in a light blue maid's outfit, with a white apron. After a cab ride, she was at the Equestrian 4-star Motel. Sunset sighed, as she walked through the employee entrance. For five hours straight, she cleaned toilets, delivered food, woke up people who were annoyed at being woken up. She was glad that this was the last hour of her shift, then she could just go home. She was now cleaning room 214. She was on her knees scrubbing a stubborn sticky spot on the carpet. Suddenly she felt two big hands grab both of her buttcheeks hard, which made her grab the closest thing near her, which was a broom. She smacked the broom over the ass grabber's head, which broke on impact causing the man's head to leak blood.
"Ms. Shimmer!" Her boss Mr. Fondleberg walked in. "I can't believe you assaulted a guest!"
"But Mr. Fondleberg-" Sunset was cut off by her boss.
"No, no more excuses. You're fired, turn in your apron and uniform." Mr. Fondleberg proclaimed. Sunset sighed and handed him her uniform (after putting her street clothes on). Sunset walked home only to find a note on her door: Rent is overdue. Pay up your rent fee of $459 or your out by the end of the month, September 31st.
"Great. I just lost my job, now how am I going to pay for my apartment?" Sunset wondered. She didn't even enter her apartment, she just walked off to the nearest place which was the coffee shop next door. She sat down at a table in the back. She pulled out her iPhone 4S and began to look for one of the following: A job, money offers, or an apartment for rent. She soon found an ad for a lost pet: Please return my sweet ChimChu. He's a rare yellow Palila. I will offer a 500 dollar reward for the safe return of my sweet little ChimChu. My Address is 743 Manehatten Drive.
"All I got to do is find some dumb bird, and my money troubles are momentarily over." Sunset smiled a bit. "I should start at the park." Sunset walked out of the coffee shop and decided to load up on some bird catching gear. Unfortunately her budget couldn't afford any real bird catching gear, so she had to settle for the cheap butterfly gear you'd find in a dollar store.
Five minutes at the park...
Sunset was sitting on a park bench, looking around for this rare bird. She walked around and saw a patch of blue feathers behind a bush. She instantly threw her net over it, only to find that the bird wasn't a bird, but an old woman in a blue feathered hat.
"Heheh, sorry." Sunset chuckled nervously. The old woman growled and smacked Sunset in the face with her purse. Sunset walked off with a black eye, and an angry expression upon her face. A few moments later, Sunset was climbing up a tree to find the bird. She sat down on a branch across a bird's nest, filled with baby chicks. "Aww, kind of cut-" She was cut off by a screeching sound and was soon attacked by two eagles. "AHH, DAMN IT, stop i-" Sunset was cut off by her falling off the branch she was on, causing her to fall on a few branches before falling in the mud. Sunset groaned. At least the mud had cushioned her fall.
'Great, what else could go wrong?' Sunset questioned, though she would regret it soon. She soon felt a splat on her face, causing her to open her eyes. She put her hand on her face and felt the sticky substance, and when she saw what it was she shivered in disgust. After going home and taking a quick shower and a change of clothes, she went back to the park. She looked around carefully and suddenly she saw the bird perched upon a tree branch hanging over a fence.
She smiled and climbed up the tree and onto the branch. She crawled slowly across the branch and to the bird and was about to catch it. Unfortunately karma was having a pay day with Sunset as the branch snapped underneath her. Sunset landed behind the fence and landed face first into a circular bowl filled with brown mush. She lifted her head and came face to face with a bull dog. "Nice, doggy..." she smiled nervously. Screams were heard from behind the fence for about twenty seconds until Sunset climbed over the fence with many bite marks, and half of her shirt ripped off which showed a scratch mark. Sunset panted heavily as she laid her back against the fence. She limped over to a nearby bench, before plopping down on it, as she sighed.
Her ears twitched as she heard a familiar voice on the other side of a hill.
"Careful now, don't eat too fast." a familiar voice stated. Sunset limped over to the hill and at the bottom of it was a girl that looked about 18, feeding pigeons. She had pink hair which had a butterfly clip in it, a white tanktop, a green skirt with a white and pink butterfly next to a white butterfly. She had on lime green boots with pink lacing at the top. Sunset knew who this girl was all too well; her name was Fluttershy. Sunset gasped when she saw the rare bird land next to Fluttershy.
"Aww, what a cutie." Fluttershy smiled and fed the rare bird. Sunset crawled over to Fluttershy and stood up, raising the net up high. Sunset was about to bring down the net, but sadly she was tackled to the ground by another girl. This girl was about the same age as Sunset. She had rainbow styled, magenta eyes. She was wearing a blue short sleeve jacket, which covered a white T-shirt that had a cloud with a rainbow thunderbolt. She had a pink and white skirt which covered a pair of black skin-tight shorts, and blue long boots. This girl's name was Rainbow Dash, or Rainbow for short.
"What the-" Sunset's face was shoved into the dirt.
"What do you think you're doing?" Rainbow proclaimed as she shoved Sunset's face deeper in the ground.
"Trying to get some money!" Sunset shouted.
"By mugging Fluttershy?! That's a new low even for you." Rainbow grimaced.
"I wasn't mugging her I was-" Sunset stopped as she looked up to see the rare bird flying away.
"You were what?" Rainbow asked.
"Trying to catch that bird that just flew away so I can get some money from it to pay my overdue rent." Sunset explained growling at her.
"Don't you already have a job?" Rainbow asked.
"I was fired from my job." Sunset stated. She then got up and dusted herself off then sighed in defeat. "Now how am I supposed to pay the rent?" Rainbow began to notice that Sunset was a bit injured beyond repair.
"What the heck happened to you?" Rainbow asked.
"Why should you care?" Sunset glared coldly.
"You're right." Rainbow glared back.
"Um, Sunset, if you need a job, I...um...could put in a good word for you at the shelter." Fluttershy suggested.
"Why would you help me?" Sunset questioned.
"Because I'm your friend and I don't want you to lose your home." Fluttershy replied.
Sunset was in deep thought on Fluttershy's offer: on one hand something could go wrong causing her to lose her job again, although she needed the money. Plus she doesn't have a lot of time left before the due date. She sighed at the thought.
"Alright Fluttershy, if you think you can get me a job at the animal shelter then please put in a good word for me. I'll take any good paying job I can get at this point." Sunset stated.
"How's Saturday sound, if it's okay with you?" Fluttershy asked.
"Sure, why not." Sunset replied, she began to walk back home. She began to think about what Fluttershy said to her. Was Fluttershy really her friend or just doing what Twilight told her to do? Either way, she'd take a job at a pet shop over being homeless any day. Sunset began to walk (limped) back to her apartment. When she got home she saw a girl at her door. The girl had pink hair which looked like cotton candy bound by a light blue bow. She had sapphire blue eyes, a blue mini short sleeve jacket that covered her white shirt with a pink heart on it and a skirt with three balloons: one yellow, two blue.
"Pinkie, what are you doing here?" Sunset asked.
"Oh, scientists believe that we were created by a huge explos-" Pinkie was cut off by Sunset covering her mouth.
"No, I mean what are you doing at my apartment door?" Sunset asked.
"Oh, Fluttershy asked me to check up on you." Pinkie gasped when she saw her injuries. "And she was right to call me! You look like you were hit by an old lady, fell out of tree, fell out of another into an angry dog's yard, and tackled by Rainbow Dash. But that's just a guess."
'I don't know if I should reply to that...' Sunset thought.
"Anyway, come on. We got to bandage you up!" Pinkie tried to open the door, with a lot of difficulty until Sunset opened the door, which was not so good of a decision. Pinkie sat Sunset down on the couch, and looked around the apartment for a first aid kit. She walked back over to Sunset with the kit in hand.
"Pinkie, you don't have to do this." Sunset asked as she began to scoot away from Pinkie who stopped her.
"Of course I don't have to, I want to. Cause that's what friends do for each other." Pinkie stated as she began to bandage Sunset's arm.
Sunset began to think about what had happened so far as Pinkie bandaged her up. So far the only upside to this day was that she may have gotten a job offer from Fluttershy, and Pinkie bandaging her up. Why did those two help her, when she was the most hated person in the school? She came back to the same conclusion that Twilight asked them to look after her. Suddenly she felt a burning sensation on her side, and saw Pinkie dabbing her wound with an antiseptic wipe.
"Oopsie, I should've told you that was going to sting." Pinkie smiled.
"Just hurry." Sunset stated as the giggly girl bandaged her up.
"Done! Tell me when your wounds heal up so we can have a recovery party!" Pinkie exclaimed.
"Just leave!" Sunset gritted through her teeth, which made the cheerful girl run out of the apartment giggling. Sunset groaned, and began to walk into her room, too tired to take a shower, especially due to her bandages. Sunset changed out of her clothes and into dark red silk pajamas. She laid down in her bed and drifted off to sleep, hoping she wouldn't have another nightmare. After the 'Demon Sunset' incident, she's been having recurring nightmares of her in the bowels of hell.
Sunset awoke in her dream, which was different then normal (her version of normal). She was sitting on a hill as the clouds go by with three other people. She saw Pinkie and Fluttershy sitting next to her. In front of her was a black silhouette of a teen male. She didn't know why this dream was as it was, but she was glad she didn't have another nightmare.
And done! Sorry this took extremely long to take. I'm lazy, but its hard to write a romance when the main thing you write is action and adventure. But that's gonna change. Also Sunset's dreams aren't the only ones we'll be looking at.
