>Long time nothing showed up on the school. For my luck, on my day off.
>"//Hurry up Sparkle, you goin to miss the show!//"
"I know i know, stop presuring me like that. This one's sneaky"
>You find yourself wandering across empty halls surrounded by silence. Not even the teaches are here anymore.
>Whatever, who wants to be on this place at this late anyway. The sun is almost set. What a lovely orange atmosphere.
>//"HURRY UP, ITS THE SEASON FINALE!!"//
>And now its killed.
"This is the last time i cover you for a stupid show"
>"//It must be nothing, just check things out and come back soon//"
"I hate you Trixie"
>"//You have 10 minutes Sparkle!//"
>She giggles.
>You end the call.
>Cute.
>No time to distractions.
>You hold a magenta crystal shaped like a star on your hand, it faintly glows as you scope the halls like a compass.
>Strange, the signal comes and goes. I know its small but even if it where the size of a mouse i should have noticed. Unless...
>You slap a hand on your face
"Of course. Im fucking retarded"
>Quickly run through the hall to your locker. The crystal emits an intermitent light.
>Its following me.
>Your body slams on the lockers leaving yourself without air. Ugh, no time to slow down.
>A quick examination through your stuffs, mostly school crap, papers, smarty pants, a light bulb, There you are.
>You hand over a pair of "futuristic like" googles from a bag full of other gadgets
>Thermal vision may not be the best suited for this but its better than nothing
"Lets see, now where you a-Oh SHI-"
>a meathy purple mass knocks you to the wall on the other side
>Vision is blurry,your put your hand on your face. Your are bleeding
"Shit.. that hurts!"
 
 
>You are Rarity
>Walking back to school. Why? just to check on things of course.
>As the president of the monster hunter club, i must keep an eye on the most minimal signal of distortion.
>Your eye spot exhausted Trixie on the front door.
"Hello darling, need a hand?"
>between pantings she replies
>"N-nahg... i-i... Trixie is fine"
>She must be running from her house
"So, slacking on your guard day. very good"
>"N-no! ... i-its not what it de el a!... I exchange days... with Sparkle"
"I see, and Where is Twilight?"
>She put a hand at the back of her head and avoids eye contact with you
>"She... kind of.... doesn't answer my calls in the last half an hour"
>Oh darling
>b-but i know shes just mad at me for leaving her while i watch my s-"
>She puts her hands in her mouth
>you raise an eyebrow in response.
>Tension builds up through her face
"Just go and help her, please"
>Y-yesh sir, i mean lady, i mean miss-"
"Go!"
>"Sup!"
>The two of you turn around to face a green man waving at you
>Great, just what i needed. Public.
"A-ahh... Anon! W-what are you doing after school darling?"
 
 
 
>You are anon
>In front of you there are this two girls from that weird club Flash was talking about some weeks ago. Its not like you paid atention to something he said.
"I forgot a book so i came back. Man, miss Cheerlie has been a bitch with the essay"
>"Tell me about it"
>Trixie answers rolling her eyer
"So girls, what are you two doing this late. Some club activities?"
>"Y-yes.. indeed Anon. Actually we are bussy with something so if you excuse us"
>A monster hunter club who hangs out after school. Sounds like fun, i mean, never played that game too much but never its too late to learn new things, right?
"I want to join"
>"E-eh?"
>Rarity face turns pale at hearing this. She begins to stutter
>"A-a-a-anon, w-w-why you want l-l-lose your time in a b-b-boring club?"
"Are you kidding? i mean, it must be a game but i be seen you guys how hang out frequently"
>Her nervious face turns into confusion
>"What?"
>Suddenly Twilight's face slam on the crystal door behind Rarity, she flinches at the look of Twi's face slowly goin down through the glass.
>"YOU OK SPARKLE?"
>Twilight raises a thumb in response, then flips out at Trixie
>"Rude"
>What the hell?
>"Twilight!, get up on this instant!"
>"Oh great, just what i need. The fabulous bitch"
>Rarity scoffs
>"Its not a good time for one of your "scenes". We have a... guest"
"Sup"
>You wave at Twilight who's still laying down on the floor
>"WHAT THE FUCK RARARA!"
 
>Twilight gets up like nothing happened. Man, she looks beaten as fuck. Her nose is bleeding, her hair is a mess and part of her is covered in some kind of slime.
>These two are arguing
>Maybe i made a mistake, this club is weird and smells. Literally. Whatever that goo is, its gross.
>"Sorry to interrupt the lovebirds but.. its here"
>The two raging girls stop their mating song to look where Trixie is pointing.
>A giant chameleon standing in two legs materializes behind the crystal door looking at us with its googly eyes.
"Oh....my.."
>Too scared to even move
>Man, what is that?! T-that thing was chasing Twilight? We need to get the fuck out right now
>The chameleon gently slides into the door closing it with its tail.
>"Well... at least its polite"
>Rarity points
>The monster spits a stream of...that...slime all over Rarity. Twilight barelly dodges it and..THERE IS SOME ON MY SHIRT!!
>Gross
>Rarity stands there, shocked as the goo flows over her body. Trixie and Twilight walks away from her.
>"H-h-how y-you dare"
>The Chameleon looks oblivious at what he did. Even I know thats a bad idea
>"HOW DARE YOU!!"
>Here we go
>She points at the beast
>"THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE FABRIC, AND NOT EVEN THAT. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TIME I SPEND DESIGNING THIS!!"
>The monster growl at her, she responses wraping its large tongue out of its maw with it appears to be a purple whip coming out of her... ring? This is getting weird
>She pulls the whip toppling the chameleon as she jumps toward its face to give a clean knock to the head. The poor thing lets out a snarl before fainting.
>Man, shes stronger than she looks
>"Welcome to the club Anonymous. Let me explain you the basics
 
>Be anon
 
>4 months since i got pulled into this mess. But, its not like i have a choice.
>Since that day my monotone life became a thrilling test to see the light again.
>everyday
>Ripples on the universe, monsters, secret organizations, magic. Man, all of this comming at the same time...its. so. confusing.
>Let me explain it
>I was kind of 'drafted' by Rarity for peeking my nose where i shouldn't. After that, i was taught how to 'release' my element and use it propperly
>they said 'its kinda of natural since everyone has magic inside of them'
>gay
>anyway, everything went smooth. i learned that regardless every magic user can alterate the matter around them, they have certain individual 'affinity' for a fighting style.
>Also, its possible to materialize your 'affinity' into a crystal shard. The shape and color variate from individuals too. And you can give it a lot of uses, like some use it like a anomally radar, others for weaponry fashion, or just as a cool accesory.
>Here on the 'Secret Hunters United' we use it as a way to identify and localize members and new recruits. Can you believe some of them actually manage to wake their magic?
>We keep this secret from everyone for their sake. Spotting gaps, aislate the zone, taking down the monster to return it to its own dimension
>All fun, small monsters time to time until that... fucking. bird
 
 
>First it apoeared to be another walk on the park. Lure the beast to a nice place then knock it down.
>But that little shit
>It just keep flying away from us, taunting and dancing like it knows what he was doing. got Flutters to the break point.
>I never see her like that before, it was scarry.
>To the point. Flutter butter shot an arrow directly into its butt when it flew away changing his trayectory
>The buffon landed on that 'crysta prep' where pretentious kids pretend to study.
>The place was crowded, since it was lunch time. And before you interrupt me with the 'you guys skipped class?, what about your notes?' let me tell you Celestia is part of the SHU.
>Why?
>I-i dont know yet. But still, that whole 'principal' undercover. Its like an spies movie.... with dinosaurs...and giant birds
>Soo, where i was... oh, i remember.
>Collective panic overflow the Snobby masses while the colorful crimsom bird didnt mind the frenzy and began to drink water from the central fountain.
>The first on attack was pinkie and her gigantic hammer. Missing the hit smashing that ugly fountain causing a short drizzle
>just before the bird can run away, Twilight and Trixie pops up from nowhere facing the coward son of a bitch. Twi retaliates the beast with a stream of bullets from her shotgun.
>Rarity and Applejack took out their whip ready to capture. A nice grab from both
>restraining the bird wasn't hard but we where not ready for the upcomming
>in a struggle, the bird manage to clap its blue flints on the edge of its wings releasing a flash.
>Our visiong was blurry for an entire minute or so. When we recover from it, the beast was dancing on the remaining pieces of the broken fountain.
>Just before we could do anything, it let out a pitch howl
 
 
>That stings through the skull.
>just before anyone can move, including the random schoolboys running away, a rip through space-dimension opens behind the bird.
>Twilight eyes widen as she drops her weaponin horror. i can barelly hear what Trixie said to her through the screech of the reality ripping off
>'Its alright.. we can. . . this time'
>is what the pale blue girl said. I think.
>All at once, a giantic green pickle jumped out of the portal smashing some unlucky students. Man, that thing is gross. Its like a vicious T-rex
>With no hesitation, it began to feast the smashed corpses. At this view, boss Rarity  yell the order to open fire
>wave after wave of arrows from fluttershy bounces over the thick scales. Twi's plasma shoots seem to be ineffective as well.
>That new recruit, Tony i think was his name, charges after it just to be eaten by one bite.
>Completelly ignoring our presense, the oversize pickle began to rampage through the structure, eathing everything his eyes crosses with.
>Rarity shouts sonething about behin useless dead lift while charging against the beast with her diamond themed spear.
>We follow after her's but a tail flip send us away while the boss gracefully slipped through it
>That purple girl, Sugar Coat, her severed  friend screaming her name, half her body crushed by fallen structure.
>'I-indigo' screamed Sugar desesperate trying to free her friend.
>'GET OUT!' Trixie yells but it was too late. The T-rex catched Sugar Coat with his maws waving her like she was a ragdoll
>Twilight let out a fait smile at this view. Man, what is wrong with her?
>Just before the devil shallows the Twintailled girl, Rarity assested a stab behind its tiny arms
>He flinched releasing a severed munched girl. Poor Sugar, after this she was unable to walk, her arm is gone too and by her horror face, i think she's in a kind of coma shock
 
>Another stab to the chest took down that dino. Well, thats why she's in charge
>After that 'episode' it was impossible to hide the reality. It took a couple of months before the entire world get used to  all this sudden warfare.
"But here we are"
"No more Secret hunting club. Now we are the Asociation of World Defenders"
>Sitting on a corner, covered in blakets enjoying a cup of cocoa, this gir stares at you as you keep explaining your life >Sunset Shimmer is her name. At least, thats what the files says.
>She looks like she get into a fight on the dirt, her clothes patched with burns.
_________
 
>Be Sunset Shimmer
>Hours ago, i had a peaceful life here on a village in the mountains. Aparted from the entired world, your lifestyle is pretty modest. Helping your parents on the field, taking care of the livestock. Deliver goods to other towns.
>Here we dont need fancy stuffs like tv's or computers. Thats why all of this happening never got to us until it was too late.
>"Where she is?, l-let me talk to her"
>This purple girl walks towards you and the green man. She looks stressed.
>"Hey Twi, i was explaining this g-"
>Yes good job, now get out the way. I need to ask her a couple of questions"
>Without hesitation, the intelectual-looking girl shoves Anon's face away from you. To be honest, he was kinda invading your personal space a little too much.
>"Rude. Well, see ya latler Sunny"
>How did he even know my name? That guy is creepy
>"Please excuse my coleague. He's a nice guy but is kind of a kid when he mets a new person"
>You nod
>"Let me introduce myself. My name is Twilight Sparkle, nice to meet you"
>She extends a hand to you
>You awkwardly shake her hand
"Sunset Shimmer"
 
>"Listen. I know all of this is overwelming, but you have my word we are here to help you in everything we can. So can you explain me what happened"
>You cant help to look away. Its hard to trust city people. They are always mean and only care for their wallets more than for others lifes
>"Let me correct myself. I dont want you to trust me, just consider we can help you protect those who you love"
>Those words. Despiste behin more rough words they feel way more honest to me.
>You take a deep breath
"I was shepherding the livestock on the mountains with Winona, my dog. the breeze where cooler than other days so i borrowed mom's scarf before leaving"
>You squeeze the burned scarf still around your neck
>Take another deep breath
"The herd were excited, Winona as well. I predicted a storm, so i guide the sheeps back to the shelters. As i walked down back to home the wind ran wildy and colder"
>Twilight nods
"Dad meet me halfway and helped shelter the sheeps. A snowstorm began to take strenght as we sealed the doors and windows. We trought, 'a snowstorm? at this season? that's kinda odd'..."
>at least, that was you wish it where. Only an odd weather
>You look to your shoes. They are worn from the daily field work, but you were happy.
>A nostalgic look in your face takes place
>Twilight reaches a hand to your shoulder. You dont like been touched by strangers, b-but. You dont mind a little human contact right now
>You take another breath
"Wi-Winona didn't stop barking at the window. We-we tried to calm her but she w-where so out of her. Growling and barking."
 
"After a half an hour we hear the livestock bawl. 'It cant be, the doors should open by the wind' dad said. He covered himself on warmth clothes. I-i offer myself to help but he refused. He told me to stay with mom."
"A-as soon as he opened the door Winona rushed through the snowstorm barking. I followed her without thinking, dad came after me. B-before i knew it i was lost into the snow, the cold quickly took my body warmth so fast, everything started to fade,i cant even hear my own thoughts"
>You tear up in front of this purple girl
"I-i felt so sleepy, b-but dad managed to find me just in time. I can remember his face, he-was crying. It was terrifying. the next thing i remember is me toss into the snow. Dad standing up at my side, he looked injured... i-I CAN'T!"
>After a short break of sobbing, Twilight hugs you. This feeling, its emanating from her. This-this feels so familiar-so, so warmth. Just. like-
>"I know this is hard for you, but you gotta tell me everything so i can help you"
>You regain composture. The tears still fall through your cheecks
"In front of us were this big mass. I cannot think of it at the time. But i felt a warmt inside of me."
"Thoughts of my dad protecting me, he was risking his life on that snowstorm facing a wild beast... for me..."
>Your eyes shine with a burning orange color
"The next i remember was me, floating on the middle of a burning village. My village. Horrorized i looked at my hands, they where set on fire, but i cannot feel pain. I took a peak to my back to see a pair of flamming wings comming out from me."
>Twilight steps back without taking her eyes from yours
"At first i trough 'I did this?','how could-' but then i spotted it"
 
"A dragon. I-i dont really know, b-but it looks like those dragons drawn on fantasy books. It was laying on there, bleeding. The warm sensation faded as the the wings and flames went away."
"I walked towards the black dragon. His scales shine like steel. He wasn't dead yet"
>Twilight reaches you another cup of cocoa
"But he cannot move, because of the injuries i think. I grab his face, so cold. At this point i was so close to his maws, but i felt like everithing was over."
>You take a sip of cocoa
"I told him 'I did this to you?'. The dragon stared at me, took a deep breath and shut his eyes."
>"He died?" interrupter her
>You nod
"After that, everyone slowly gather around on the center of the village. They gave me looks but at the same time they give me the thanks. I found my parent an hour after that, i wss relieved nothing happened to mom but dad has his arm broke."
"The asked to me how i did that. I was  confused at first but quickly remembered the flaming envelop. I response 'I dont know'"
>Twilight gets up, she admire the sky from a few seconds before facing you again.
>"Your eyes. Its glow is fadding"
>They what?
>"Nevermind. Come with me"
>She gives you a hand to stand up. With cocoa in hands and this old blankets you follow the purple girl.
>To this point, the sky is clear again. The sunset is beautiful today. You remember your mom telling you they name you 'Sunset Shimmer' because she meet dad while watching the sunset in the top of the mountain
>Pretty corny, but you love them. And the sole through of lossing them. Terrifies you
>"Your eyes"
"My-my eyes?"
>"They are glowing again"
"How-how can-"
>Is this what that green guy was telling you?
>"Soon you will find it out"
>Be Twilight
>Right now you are on a small villager at the mountains. the sight its beatiful at the night. The sky is so clear you can see so many stars, maybe one day, you can travel across the space.
>But this is not the time to daydream. This village got rampaged by a dragon. A real one, and its slayer right at your side without major injuries
"So, you born here?"
>Sunset nods
"Dont worry, everything's goin to be fine"
>I hope so
>You guide Sunset to an specific tent. You do a sign with your hard invitin her to walk in. She goes nervously in.
>inside the tent it's warmer, two guys sitting on retractile chairs working with some graphs. In the middle of the place a card table filled with maps and files of the geography.
"Take a seat please"
>Sunset keeps looking around like a lost puppy. Sure she's a homestead girl
"Sunset, do you even know what you did today?"
>"W-what?"
>She looks away, not sure what to do
"Listen. You, without training. No. Even without the knowledge of your element, manage to took down an elder dragon. By yourself"
>W-well-"
>You stand up from your seat
"Even our high rank elite hunters have problems with this class of monsters. Sunset, what you did was impressive"
>Sunset remains silent at the complinent.
"You protected your home from a complete wipeout. You-"
>"What you goverment pigs want from me?"
>Her eyes glow with rage. You regsin composture and sit down.
"Sunset-"
>"There is a reason for everything. Things doesnt happen like that, why that dragon attacked the village? why the sudden notice of a 'secret' organization shows at our doorstep out of nowhere?"
>Its hotter right now or... no. It must be, she can radiate all this heat?
"I beg you to calm down before you burn out the tent, please"
>The co-workers seem to not care at all. trully professionals.
>Sunset seems to notice what she can do now. She calm down as the heat lowers.
 
"We came here following the dragon. A evacuation mandatory was sent but it seems it doesn't reach in time"
"When the hunting team arrived the place they find out you alone killed the dragon. We sent a rescue and a research team to help the villagers"
>You lit a cigarrete. Man, all this 'big world organization' is driving you nuts.
"This notice got to me so i wanted to meet the new recruit by myself"
>Also get out of that lab.But most important...
>"N-new rec-"
"I want you to join the elite forces"
>"I-i will never agree anything! and if you think you and your soldiers are goin to draft and use ne like a puppet, you are-"
"wrong. I know. Listen, im not asking you because i KNOW you will join us"
>Sunset chuckles
>"And what makes you think i EVER cooperate with your kind"
"Because we have knowledge. Listen Sunset, we are on the same team"
>Sunset rolls her eyes
"The HWD exist for the sole purpuse of protect the humanity against outher theaths"
>"What do you mean by 'outher'?"
>You let out a nostalgic breath
"That's confidential... unless-"
>"Not interested, thanks"
>She stand up and walks to the exit
"They will keep appearing. Until, they become uncontainable"
>"That's not our problem. Thanks for the help anyway"
"It is. If we dont find the source of all of this mess... we facing the human extinction"
>....again
>Your voice is monotone, cold and dead from the countless tines you review this subject over and over again
"Its a matter for you. And your family. It doesnt matteruf you live far away, or if you protect your home on your own. Soon they will come by two, then by three-"
>You stop. Not aparting your eyes from her's
>"And what I can do to help?"
"I need the most of the help i can get"
>The two of you walk out from the tent. You give an order to a employee
"Lets go"
>Without saying a word, you walk to an helocopter lander on an open place. Sunset follows you without saying a word.
 
>Anon meets you halfway the road, he's carying a dog between his arms.
>"Leaving without me?"
>"WINONA!"
>Sunset runs as the dog jumps out of anon to meet her companion. How cute
>"I-thought i lost you"
>"I found her snatching a rabbit in the outside of the village"
>"ARFH"
>Winona licks Sunset face. She laughts cuddling her
>"Never, EVER scare me like that"
>"WOOF"
>By the time, the helicopter is set and ready. You turn to Sunset
"If you want to help, please depart with the research team by the morning. They will lead you to me."
>Sunset remains silent
"Settle things up before. You are not goin back in s while"
>"....i-i know"
"Lets go Anonymous"
>"AYE AYE"
The two of you hop into the helicopter leaving a girl and her dog standing in the middle of nowhere, watching the starry night.
>"I....never asked for this"
>Bitting her lips, a tear rolls trough her cheek.
