Symphony Shimmer (P.2)

[MermaidPony 8]

"Wow, you're nuts." Kandy replied. "Princess Twilight knows where Sunset is, but she won't tell me! It's some sort of a 'secret', and I'm willing to find out. If Sunset is out there, I want to find her. You're, of course, going to help me!"

 

"Symphony, you've gone crazy! You can't get arrested before your wedding, it brings bad luck!" Kandy said, worrying. Symphony smiled and said: "Echo is at the bottom of my worries right now. I want to see Sunset."

"Don't you think she might not want to see you? I mean, don't you remember what happened before she left?" Kandy said.

 

-Flashback-

"Hey, Symphony, who is this?"

"My new boyfriend, Echo Sound. I wanted you to meet him." Symphony said. Echo went into the house with a shy smile. "Techno! Come over here, it's finally time!" Sugar (their mom) yelled. Techno left his buisness and came to see what did his wife wanted. "Dad, this is Echo, and we're dating." Symphony said.

Sunset was eating lunch quietly, ignoring everyone else. "Wow, Symphony! That's great!" Kandy said. Symphony smiled. The family talked to Echo, while Symphony could sense the fact that something's wrong. "Sunset?" Symphony asked. "Leave me alone." Sunset replied. Symphony came closer to Sunset, which made Sunset angry.

"Don't come closer to me, I swear I'll hurt you!" She said. "What's with the attitude, Sunset? Don't you speak like that, I'm your older sister, show some respect!"

"Oh really?! What makes you better than me?!" Sunset yelled. Sunset was angry, and she threw the bowl at Symphony. Symphony got away, but it hit Echo instead. Sunset was overwhelmed. "What's wrong with you?!" Symphony yelled.

 

"You've been like that since I finished studying with Celestia! All you've been talking about is how much  power you want to have! Is that jealousy, Sunset?" Symphony yelled at her again. "I-"

 

"You NOTHING! Get out of my sight, Sunset, I've had enough of you! You're scaring everyone away! I wish you'll leave and never come back, I swear!"

Sunset's eyes were filled with tears, and she ran away to her room. That night, Sunset disappeared.

"I know, I know... I made a mistake. I won't forgive myself until Sunset will. If I wasn't working with dad, I wouldn't have my tracking powder. I guess working with my parents brings it's own benefits." Symphony said. Kandy sighed, and said: "too bad I'm not speaking with them for the past two years..."

"Don't worry, Kandy. I'm sure that if Sunset comes back, every broken bridge will be fixed." Symphony said. Kandy smiled, and asked: "when are we going to take action?" Symphony replied: "tonight, when the only one who sees us is the white moon."

The two were inside of their home, preparing themselves. They packed food, because they didn't know how long it's going to take. They wore long and black hoodies, which blended well with the darkness. They took some tools with them, and the tracking device, which detected the location of the invitation. They went all the way to the castle.

 

"Could it be that Sunset is inside?" Kandy asked. "Why would it be a secret?" Symphony replied.

 

They took out their silent tools and backed away, they were digging all the way to the sewer and walking through it. As the signal became very strong, they both combined their powers and teleported into the room. The room was empty, all it had was a mirror and a table, with the invitation lying on top. "'Well, we made it inside, what now?" Kandy asked, as she was investigating the room. Symphony sighed in disappointment, "I don't know. I was hoping she'll be here, but... all I see is this mirror." Symphony said. She looked at the invitation, and a tear came out of her eye. "If someone can hear me, please, just give me a chance..."

 

She walked to the mirror and stared at it, until another tear came out of her eye. "Please..."

The tear landed on the mirror, and a strong wind came out. "I believe in you." Said a voice. Symphony tried touching the mirror, and the glass was feeling weird. As she pressed her hoove, it went inside. "Symphony, this needs investigation." Kandy said. "Aren't you afraid? I mean, we don't even know what this is." Symphony said, staring into the mirror. "Move, I'll show you that it's safe!" Kandy said as she ran towards the mirror. Instead of being sucked inside, she just ran into the mirror and crashed. "I guess it wants me to go in it.." Symphony said.

 

"Great idea, do that." Kandy said as she was trying to get up. "Kandy, I need you to leave." Symphony said.

 

"What?! No way! What if I'm losing you as well? It's too dangerous, I've got no one!" Kandy cried.

"HEY! Who is that?!" A guard yelled. "Kandy, go! Now! Come back tomorrow!" Symphony yelled back. Kandy teleported away, and Symphony looked at the mirror again. A few guards were behind her, at the entrance to the room. She panicked and went into the mirror. She was inside of a marble of bright colors, as if she was inside a machine. In the end, she crashed on a hard floor. "I'm never walking into any mirrors in my life again..." She said. She opened her eyes, and surprisingly, Wherever she was, the sun was already above, and it seemed like morning.

 

She tried standing up, but with no success. "What are these things? They're so uncomfortable!" Symphony complained. She tried holding into the sculpture behind her, and then she could stand up. She looked around, and at herself. Some weird creatures around started walking to the big building in front of her. "I've heard of these... these are humans. I thought they're just a legend!" She said. "What's a legend?" Someone asked, scaring Symphony.

"Nothing!" Symphony replied. She looked at the person who scared her, that person had a gray hair and amber skin. "I'm sorry if I scared you, I'm..."

"I should go now, I'm sorry..." "no, don't go, I'm sorry.. my name is Lewis, and I wanted to know if you know the school a little bit." He asked. "No, I'm sorry." Symphony replied. The bell rang, and Lewis grabbed her hand. "We might be late, come on!" He said. He ran with her into the school. "I need to see principal Celestia. Have a great day!" He said and left. Symphony looked on his shirt, seeing a print that is similar to Echo's cutie mark.

 

Symphony was going around school, trying to know where she is. She was really troubled, but something in her gut told her Sunset might be near. Symphony bumped into someone, accidently causing them to drop their stuff. "Hey, watch where you're going!" That person yelled. She had a blue skin and a rainbow hair. "I know you're upset, Rainbow Dash, but you gotta calm down. Being angry won't help anyone." Said a familiar voice. As Symphony was picking Rainbow Dash's books, she raised her head and saw a human, with an amber skin and a yellow-red hair. "Let me help you. Are you new?" That human asked. The bell rang again, calling all of the students to go and do their activities. "We've got to go, Sunset!"

 

That human who was helping Symphony pick up the books apologized. Rainbow Dash took the books and left, leaving Symphony in the hallway, with an empty look.

"Could it be...?"
