A dark ominous presence loomed as it made its way through a lush landscape, leaving singing flowers wilting and wailing in its wake.

It left glorious mountains cloaked in shadows as it approached a harmonious looking palace, overtaking it in darkness and despair. Even the rainbow waterfalls stopped their gushing and went dry at the foreboding presence.

Approaching the great doors, the darkness reached out....and knocked.

The doors swung open.

"Sister! Must you always ruin my flowers with your dramatic entrances??"

""Apologies..." The darkness shifted into the form of a human, cloaked in black darker than night. "Sister..."

"Now clean up this mess!"

With a huff, the ominous being waved her hand and all returned to its usual harmony.

"Happy?..."

"Hardly... Now do come in before you wreak anymore havoc."

The figure complied, and the doors were shut.

"Now where have you been these days?"

"Wreaking havoc..."

"As usual...Have you seen my latest reformation model recently?" She asked smugly. "She loves me!"

"That pony turned human only loves you because now she's got places to stay other than the streets!"

"Oh sister, surely you just came from egypt, cause you're in denial!"

"Whatever...Sooner or later, she will come back to me. She just needs a little discouragement away from you."

"Oh yes...Just like Luna will come back to you right?" She asked slyly.

The hostile being glared daggers at her harmonious sister that would leave a mortal being dead.

Her sister wore a dress of living colors, with a train of glowing rainbows.

The hostile sister hated it.

"Sister....Do you know what happens when your elements begin tearing others apart?" Hostility asked quietly, before suddenly grabbing the gold and red from the rainbow train of her dress, and ripped the colors away, dropping them to the ground as their light and glow faded away and the rest of the colors lost a great deal of their brilliance.

"...They tear themselves apart."

Harmony crossed her arms.

"Funny how you just ripped my train...My elements do not tear themselves, nor others apart...you do sister."

Hostility scoffed. "Your precious elements are not all that, as you may think...A little push in the wrong direction, and they would all go savage.

"Is that what you think?.."

"I KNOW it sister! Why I would bet three million bows of rain on it!"

"Done."

"Why, I would even- what?.."

"It's a wager sister." There was a pause, then hostility crowed.

"This will be easy as pie!" Hostility departed the harmonious realm, and went to set her plan into action.


She arrived at the Apple farm, where the representatives of her sister's elements were having a slumber party.

"Makes me want to barf a rainbow..." She scoffed as she watched, invisible to all.

"I just need somebody who..." Before she finished her thought, she saw the apple farmer hurrying her sister out of the room.

"Hey wait! I can act grown up!"

G'night sis!"

"But it's not even my bedtime!" She complained. The door was closed on her, and hostility watched as she sulked up to her room.

"Hmm..." Hostility followed the young farmer to her room.

"It's not fair!" Applebloom complained as she closed her door.

"It really isn't is it?.." Hostility connected a thought to her.

"Your sister should be spending time with you...not that good for nothing pony turned human"

"I just want her gone!" Applebloom coldly voiced her thoughts.

Maybe there's a way to get her to stop spending so much time with her... Hostility silkily voiced in her head.

Just then, her phone gave a notification buzz. It was for her Mystable App. Applebloom loked at her profile.

Remind your sister of who Sunset used to be... Hostility hissed inside her head.

Make a new account...Make it look like Sunset, but give the the profile no name...make it anonymous...Make it... Anon-A-Miss.

Applebloom signed out, and furiously began making a new profile.


"What now?.." Applebloom wondered when the profile was complete.

Make a post you fool! Hostility urged.

"About what?.."

Anything that would embarress your sister!

"Well...There is piggly wiggly..."

Post it!

"Ah don't know..."

Would you rather have your sister constantly around that she-demon?

With new vigor and anger, Applebloom punched the keys, typing her post, and making it heartless.


The next day at school, hostility followed Applebloom everywhere.

Applebloom saw her sister in the hallway, looking perplexed, as students were teasing her about piggly wiggly.

Now you fool! Do it now!Hostility hissed.

"Sis! Sis! Ya gotta see this!" She showed Applejack the recently created profile and the post.

"Wha?...how...who?" Applejack tried to process what she was seeing.

"Nobody knows who it is! It was just posted recently!"

Just then, other students walked by, teasing as they went.

"Hey piggly wiggly!"

"Oink! Oink!"

Applejack steeled herself.

"Ah don't know who did this, but ah can handle a bit of teasing..."

"Are you sure you're gonna be ok?" Sunset put a hand on her shoulder.

Get yer dirty hands off mah sister...Applebloom thought coldly.

"Ya...I'll be fine. Thanks Sunset." Applejack walked off.

Go after her you idiot! Applebloom complied with the hostile voice.

"Sis!"

"Ya ain't gettin' teasedtoo, are ya bllom?"

"No...It's just...about that profile."

"What about it?"

"Well...the only other person who knew about piggly wiggly was Sunset..."

"Bloom! What are ya gettin' at?"

"Ah'm just saying! Plus...The main colors on the Anon-A-Miss page are red and yellow..."

"Bloom, ah can't believe ya would even accuse mah friend of doing this!"

Applebloom held her hands up. "Ah'm not accusin' anyone, ah'm just pointing some peculiar facts out..."

Applejack harumphed and left her sister.

That went well... Applebloom thought to herself.

They are going to Rarity's tonight." Hostility planted in her mind.

Get Sweetie Belle. Do whatever you need to do


After their math class, Applebloom pulled Sweetiebelle aside.

"Ah need ya tah listen tah me."

"What's up?"

"Does...Does it bother ya how much time Rarity spends with Sunset now that they're friends?"

"Bloom, you read my mind! I hardly ever see Rarity anymore...I... I hate to say it, but...I almost wish that they weren't friends..."

"What if I told you that we may be able tah get our sisters back?"

"How?.."

Applebloom looked around, making sure no one was around.

"First...Swear on our friendship that what ah'm about tah tell you, you won't reveal tah anyone."

SweetieBelle was taken aback by the serious tone in Applebloom's voice.

"Bloom...Wha-"

"Swear it Belle!"

"Ok, ok! Fine! I won't tell anyone."

"Swear on our friendship."

"Fine. I swear on our friendship, I won't reveal whatever you're about to show me, to anyone." There was a pause, before Applebloom took out her phone, opening it up to the Anon-A-Miss page, and gave it to Sweetie Belle.

"Hey...I had heard that someone had leaked the whole "piggly wiggly" thing..." She trailed off.

"THAT WAS YOU?!?" She all but shouted. Applebloom covered her mouth.

"Go tell it on the mountain, why don't ya??" She hissed.

"Applebloom!" She whispered. "Why would you do such a thing to your own sister??"

"Take a good look at the page..."

Sweetie Belle did. "It...It almost looks like a page Sunset made if I didn't know any..." She trailed off again.

"YOU"RE FRAMING SUN-" Her mouth was covered before she could finish.

"Are ya tryin' tah get me caught??"

"Bloom!" she hissed. "This is low!"

"Ah know it's low! Are ya in?"

"...What?..."

"They are going to be at yer house tonight. If yer in, get something on Rarity."

Sweetie Belle gaped at her. "You're really not joking..."

"We both want our sisters back. This could be the way to do it."

"I...I don't know Bloom..." She looked at the page again.

"I don't know if I want to take part in this..."

"It'll just cut Sunset off from the group. It's no different than what she did with our sisters before." There was a quiet pause.

"Are ya in?"

"...Yes."


It was the middle of the night. Everyone was sleeping. Sweetie Belle's heart thumped as she opened the door to her sister's room where the group of girls were asleep.

Get the videos, get out.

Get the videos, get out. She repeated in her head.

Luckily, Sunset had her phone right next to her.

Sweetie Belle quietly approached. She was sure her thumping heart would give her away. Sunset was sleeping, facing her. Sweetie was sure she would open her eyes at any moment, but amazingly, she didn't.

Sweetie downloaded her videos. When it was finally done, she carefully made her way back to the door, and left.

Once in the hall, she let out a breath she had been holding in. She had done it. She was...She was a thief, she thought to herself.

She pushed the guilty feeling away, and went to bed.


Sweetie shoved her phone into Applebloom.

"I am NEVER doing that again..."

Applebloom looked at the newly downloaded videos.

"Sweetie...This is amazing!"

"Hope you think so, cause it's not happening again."

Applebloom made a comment to go with the videos, and posted them.

Almost immediately, the likes and comments came rolling in.

Before too long, the entire group of girls found themselves being teased over the videos.

Applebloom and Sweetie saw Sunset come in, and approach the girls.

Let's see you try and worm your way out of this one Sunset... Applebloom thought.

"Hey girls, I-...What's going on?" Sunset asked when she was met with glares from the group.

"Sunset...have...have you lost yer phone recently?" Applejack asked.

"No...It's right here." She pulled it out. "Why?.."

"Cause ya need tah explain this! She showed Sunset her phone, which was open to the Anon-A-Miss page with the videos.

"What??" Sunset took the phone. "How did she get our videos?"

"You mean YOUR videos??" Applejack demanded.

Sunset looked up. "Huh?" She asked, surprised at Applejack's tone.

"All those videos... Their yours! You took them Sunset!"

"What are you-"

"Don't play stupid, girl! The gig's up! Yer Anon-A-Miss!"

Sunset stumbled back, as if struck. "...What?"

"We should have seen it before. The profile colors are red and yellow after all, and yer the one who knew about piggly wiggly. You were so overly confident about all this, that ya blew yer own cover by posting so blatantly."

"No...I- I'm not Anon-A-Miss! I'm not this person!" Sunset was starting to tear up, as were the others.

"Ah can't believe we ever thought you were our friend..." Applejack said coldly, and turned away.

"I... I am your friend! All of yours! You girls are the only friends I've ever had!" She put her hand on Applejack's shoulder, before being shoved away by Rainbow Dash.

"Don't you touch herAnon-A-Miss!. We should have seen you for what you've always been. A lying, deceptive she-demon!"

"Dash, you...You don't mean that."

"Don't I??!" Dash reached out and grabbed her, before forcefully punching her across the jaw, sending her harshly to the ground.

"Dash!!" Rarity gasped. But nobody moved to help her. Some students passing by snickered at the scene and scoffed at Sunset.

"Don't ever talk to me, or any of us again, Anon-A-Miss." Dash walked away, as others in the hall congragulated her. As if she had just done something great.

"You go Dash!"

"Rainbow freaking Dash!"

"Thug life!"

"Not taking it anymore!"

"Do it again so we can get it on tape! It'll be the new meme!"

Sunset slowly got up from the floor, her jaw pounding. She looked at the others for any sign of mercy.

Applejack shook her head sadly, and walked away, slowly followed by the others.

Fluttershy lingered.

"Shy?.." She winced from the pain in her jaw.

There was a long pause, before she too, turned away sadly and left.
