I'm yanked out of my memories by the crunching of rocks under tires as the car turns onto a gravel road that winds deep ahead of me into the woods. We round a couple bends before the building comes into view - a large, imposing structure that looks a lot like a refurbished warehouse. Which it is.

Somebody is standing out front. I bet it's this Twilight person. She has long, straight hair that's dyed purple (or is it - suddenly I'm not so sure it's dye), and she's wearing all purple, too. She's holding a clipboard with a couple papers clipped to the front, and she stares at me as I step out of the car. After a couple moments of awkward silence, I give her a little wave and a "hi".

"Hello, Sunny. Or should I say Sunset Shimmer." Twilight stares at me expectantly, and I blush a bit.

"Uh... yep, that's me. Sunny. Definitely not from Equestria. Definitely not adopted." I inwardly wince. That sounded a lot calmer in my head. "Never mind. Why am I here?"

Twilight flips through the papers on her clipboard until she finds what she's looking for. She pulls a sheet of paper out and thrusts it at me. "Here. Read. Now." I take the paper from her. It's about me.

I look back up at Twilight. "Ho-how do you know who I am?"

She shrugs. "It's my job. Is my information accurate?"

I glance back down at the paper. "Actually... no. Who's this 'Twilight Sparkle' person? How'd you know where I was if my location is unknown? Who are you, anyways?"
