"What have we done Bloom?...We...we're monsters..."

"No. We're not." Sweetie gaped at Applebloom.

"Did you not just see-"

"I saw perfectly fine... She deserved it."

"...What?"

"When you really think about it, what recompense did Sunset ever get for what she did in the past? This is just a little overdue justice."

"I don't know Bloom..."

"Besides, if we close the account now, they might just decide to give her a second chance. We aren't closing the account, if anything, we'll be expanding it."

"Expanding how?.."

"The Anon-A-Miss account is getting emails left and right about secrets to post."

"We are going to post everyone's secrets now??"

"Exactly."

It was after their science class together, that Applebloom approached Scootaloo next. She told her everything she had told Sweetie Belle.

"I can't believe it's you guys!" She whispered.

"Are ya mad at us?"

"Mad? I actually thought it's kind of cool how much attention the profile's getting."

"Want in?.."

"Seriously?"

"One condition...We'd need something on Rainbow Dash. We haven't gotten anything on her yet."

"Hmm..." Her face took on a mischevious look. "I may have something..."

The five girls were sitting at one of the cafeteria tables. All was quiet.

"Do you think maybe we were too hard on Sunset?.." Fluttershy spoke up.

"Rainbow groaned. "Shy, we can't just let her walk all over us. We appreciate how caring you are to...everybody. But maybe she'll actually think before she makes another post."

"I have to agree with Rainbow on this one fluttershy dear." Rarity agreed.

"Sometimes people just have to learn the hard way." Applejack added.

"But...But Rainbow punched her..."

"Like Applejack said..." Rainbow defended. "Learning the hard way. I'd be surprised if she ever posts on that site again."

Before she had finished her sentence, their phones, along with many others in the cafeteria went off, signalling another update from Anon-A-Miss.

Dash sighed. "Looks like I spoke too soon..." She looked at the new post on her phone....and froze. There were murmers across the cafeteria.

"They didn't really do that."

"Oh snap! Payback for that punch!"

"Gotta hand it to Shimmer, she's got guts to post this..."

"I sense a war brewing between them...Chalk one up for Shimmer!"

The other girls had looked at their phones with their own shocked faces.

"Rainbow darling...Are you going to be-" But rainbow was already out of the cafeteria.

Hostility had found Rainbow outside on the bleachers. She had infected the majority of the school, and Rainbow Dash was one of her sister's own element representatives. If there was anything hostility enjoyed doing, it was manipulating her sister's own representatives, and making harmony out to be just as corrupt as she was.

It's not fair is it? She planted into Rainbow's mind.

Sunset has crossed the line... She deserves to pay."

"She should pay..." Rainbow agreed with the voice. "But how?.."

Just then, the other half of who'm the last post had been made about, Gilda, grabbed her from the bleachers.

"Hey punk. Me and some of the others are looking for your little friend, but we can't seem to be able to find her anywhere. Where is she??" Gilda demanded.

"First of all, she's not my friend."

"Good to know. Cause we're going to make her suffer. Now where is she??"

"Trust me, if I knew, I'd tell you, but I could still help you find her."

"I've got people looking high and low for her. She's gone!"

"Exactly. She probably went home." She took out her phone.

"But I have more than one way of getting hold of her..."

A smirk slowly formed on Gilda's face.

Hostility was pleased. That wager was as good as hers.

It was after school hours. Everybody had gone home and it was 6 pm.

"Ok, send the text. I told everybody to be here at 6:15 pm sharp. Tell her to be here at 7:00. Make her come. Tell her it's an emergency, anything that'll get her here. Tell her to come to the gym. I had someone stick around in the school. They'll let us in, and we'll prop the door open."

Dash nodded and made the text, then sent it. It wasn't long before she got an answer.

"Dash? What's this about an emergency?"

"I'll tell you when you get here. See you at 7."

As Gilda had said, everyone was there early. They all took their positions and waited.

Sunset got there at about 10 after 7:00. Dash, Gilda, and three others were sitting at the bleachers inside the gym. Dash saw Sunset approach at the gym doors. The lights were all off, and they were in hooded clothing.

Gilda gestured to Sunset to come closer. She did.

"Uhh, girls? Not that I'm complaining, but this meetup feels a little creepy..."

"That's the whole idea." Gilda spoke. That was when all the lights cut on, and the rest of the students filed in, blocking the exits.

Sunset looked around her, coming to the realization that this was all a setup.

"You know, I wasn't so sure you'd really fall for this. Guess you're not so smart after all, huh?" She mocked.

Sunset surveyed the people on the bleachers. Rainbow kept a neutral face, but Sunset's gaze fell on her anyway. She squinted as she tried to get a better look at her. Dash lowered her head.

"...Rainbow?"

Ah, who am I kidding?.. Dash thought to herself as she raised her head back up to glare at Sunset, and fully removed her hood.

"Yes. Surprised?.."

Sunset slowly shook her head. "How could you?.." She asked quietly.

"How could I?? How could you!!" Rainbow pointed an accusing finger at her.

"How could you have the gall to post what you did?!?"

"I don't even know what was posted!!" She addressed everyone in the gym, and held up her phone.

"Try me! Take this phone and see for yourselves that I don't even have the stupid app on my phone! I deleted it! I'm sick of the app, and I'm sick of students who can't see what is right in front of them!!" Sunset was shouting angrily now. She was fed up with all of this. She had had it.

"Take it! Anybody!... Nobody? What's wrong? Afraid that I might actually be TELLING the TRUTH?? Having second thoughts about this whole vigilante act?"

"I'd like to check it out." Gilda spoke up.

"Be my guest." Sunset tossed her the phone. She caught it... and smashed it on the ground.

"To be honest, it really doesn't matter whether or not you are Anon-A-Miss. Fact is, you're still due for payback for the last three years! So, sorry to ruin your little speech, but if you thought you could get out of this so easily, you are sadly mistaken Shimmer. This is revenge..."

The circle of students slowly began closing in. Sunset looked around, but had no way of escape.

"Dash! Do you really still want them to do this to me?" Sunset asked, more frantically now. "Even if I'm not Anon-A-Miss?? I thought you had forgiven me for my past. What if I didn't betray you?? Are you still going to betray me??"

"Someone shut her up already!" Gilda shouted.

Someone kicked her from behind, knocking her to the ground, and they all descended on her.

They savagely tore into her with punches, kicks, and stomps.

Rainbow watched from the side with Gilda, feeling a surge of guilt. Seconds turned into minutes as they continued their assault.

Three minutes later, Dash turned to Gilda.

"That's enough Gilda."

"You kidding? This is just beginning."

Sunset cried out in pain amid the abuse.

"I said that's enough!"

"What's the matter? Growing a heart now?

"They're going to beat her into unconsciousness!"

"That's kinda the idea Dash."

Dash moved forward to stop the attack. Gilda pulled her back.

"You interfere, then you'll be next..." She warned.

Dash pulled her arm away, glaring, and moved forward again.

Gilda turned her around forcefully, and punched her across the face, knocking her to the ground, and kicked her in the ribs.

"Stay down Dash. You'll regret it otherwise."

Dash scoffed, and moved to get up, only to have Gilda's boot stomp down on her back, forcing her back to the ground.

"The only one you're making this hard for is yourself Dash."

Dash looked back over to the large group. One of them pulled Sunset up by the collar of her shirt and held her against the wall. He drove his fist into her face, then three times into her gut before dropping her back to the ground, where the attacks raged on.

"Sunset...forgive me." Dash could only watch as Sunset gave into the unrelenting abuse.

"Stop!" One of them called out. "She's out cold!"

Dash glared back up at Gilda.

"You've all had your fun, now let her go, and we can all go home."

Gilda smirked. "Ya, fat chance of that..." She addressed the group.

"Get her in my trunk, and we'll head out."

"Head out...where?" Dash asked, confused.

Gilda didn't answer. Everyone began filing out. Two guys came over and held Dash and bound her.

"We're going for a ride..." Gilda shoved Dash to get her moving.

They came to a remote area, about 30 minutes outside the city, with an abandoned factory.

Gilda got Dash out of the car, and two others went to get Sunset out of the trunk.

Dash got a good look at her. Her face was completely swollen with bruises and cuts. Blood trailed from her nose and mouth, and both her eyes were purple with bruising.

If Dash hadn't known any better, she would think Sunset was dead. It made her sick to think she had helped them do this.

They went inside, found a large room, and tied Sunset to a post.

Gilda tied Dash to another nearby post.

"We'll just let you watch from here." Gilda smirked, and went back to the group.

The time they were waiting for her to wake up, they took some permanent markers, and drew derogatory images and insults all over her face, chuckling as they did so.

It was about half an hour later when she finally began to stir and moan.
