With that attempt stopped, Estelle hopped closer and climbed onto Sunset’s shoulder. A brief nuzzle on her cheek for comfort first before she’d speak up.
“Are you going to be ok? That was too close!”
Sunset felt a warmth flow through her as the bird nuzzled her cheek. She was stunned for a moment when she heard the bird speak, but she’d seen weirder in her life. Sniffling she said, “Why do you care?”
It definitely wasn’t the first school Sunset had in mind when she had requested a transfer, but this one the one that Principal Celestia had recommended. So, off she went to New York. She was certainly glad she had the funds to make the move, and thankful that the price of pure gold was so high, otherwise she’s still be stuck in that small stupid town.
She sighed to herself as she walked up the steps of the building, her headphones firmly on her head blaring a random Whitechapel song. She always used to tell herself that she wouldn’t listen to that kind of music, but after listening to it in the cab that took her to her new, tiny, cramped apartment… She found it oddly relatable. Some of them anyway.
Shaking her thoughts loose from her head, she noticed that the hallway of the school was empty, save for a a few lone people. Hopefully this day would go by quick.
