After finding out the great news, Sunset, Fluttershy, Pinkie & Shining returned to the Sparkle Family house to tell the rest of the family the good news, which was met with excitement. Sunset had sneaked her way outside the house and was laying down & relaxing on the daybed porch swing. To say she was nervous was a complete understatement, being the soon to be mother of twins was firmly imprinted in her mind and it started to cause her a bit of anxiety, which is the main reason to why Sunset was out here to begin with. She was on the verge of falling asleep when she felt something touch her shoulder startling her.

"OH! I'm sorry I didn't mean to startle you." said Twilight Velvet.

"It's alright Miss Velvet, I just wanted some piece & quiet so I could relax." said Sunset.

"That's understandable considering what you found out today." said Velvet.

Sunset sat up and stared at the sky, she felt her daughters movement inside and took a deep breath.

"Everything okay?" asked Velvet, sitting down next to Sunset.

"Yea just thinking about what's to come." said Sunset.

"Do your parents know, about the babies?" asked Velvet to which Sunset went silent for a couple of minutes.

"Oh, uh..............are you an orphan?" asked Velvet.

Sunset sighed "Back where I'm from there was a woman who's similar to Principal Celestia, this woman is very caring, nice, and just plain helpful. She was the mother figure for me back then, however I took that kindness for granted and I was a smug little bitch. When I came here I took the only money I had to buy my loft and a little food, but despite the fact my attitude didn't change for years after I came here, Principal Celestia did make sure I was alright after she learned I was all alone." she finished.

"Does she know?" asked Velvet.

"Yes she knows about the girls." Sunset said holding her stomach, which the babies then moved from the touch of their mother.

"I'm sorry about the I acted towards you because of that party." said Velvet.

"Hey it's completely understandable, because what parent wants to come home to a messed up house caused by some random teens they've hardly meet, my answer none!." said Sunset.

"Thank you for understanding." said Velvet.

"You're welcome." said Sunset.

"Do you want to head back inside?" asked Velvet.

"No, i'll just stay out here for a little bit." answered Sunset.

"Take as long as you need." Velvet said.

"Miss Velvet?" asked Sunset.

"Yes?" said Velvet.

"Thank you for the talk." Sunset said.

"You're welcome." Velvet said, then smiling and leaving Sunset to her thoughts.

Sunset walked through school the next morning with students laughing and staring at her. Sunset & the others figured out why this was happening when they saw the notes left on Sunset's locker which read "Whore, homewrecker, fat bitch" and a drawing of Sunset with looked to be mutant babies. The rude students around laughed even louder and Sunset left as fast as she could. Fluttershy, Pinkie & Twilight tore down the notes and picture then went to find Sunset.

Sunset sat in a unused classroom alone in the dark, she was frustrated with the fact that the other students got to her again, that it was easy to get through her armor and poke at her with a stick and look at her like a freak.

"Those fucking assholes........ ugggghhhhh!" Sunset said to herself annoyed.

She froze when she heard someone open the door to the room, the lights turned on revealing Vice Principal Luna.

"Sunset, I heard what happened and I already know the answer to this question, however it's customary to ask, are you alright." Luna said walking up and placing a hand on the pregnant girl's shoulder.

"No." Sunset said quietly. "I should've expected this to happen. Why do people have to be assholes and I know they don't like me, but still." she said the latter part a little louder then buried her head into her arms.

"Because others are ignorant." Luna said, sitting down next to Sunset.

"What should I do now?" asked Sunset.

"Show them you don't give a damn about them & their pathetic opinions." Luna said a little loud, surprising Sunset.

"I-i-i-i didn't you could say that." Sunset said nervous.

"I'm not supposed to say those things and use those words on schools grounds, I let the emotions go a tiny bit there." Luna said quietly.

"How did you find me here anyway?" asked Sunset.

"I used to teach in this room before I assumed the role of Vice Principal when Star Swirled was in charge of the school. Your friends looked in the obvious place(The Music Room) before the first period bell rang and when they didn't find you there, I told them to go to class and I went I looking." said Luna.

"Oh! by the way for some reason I can't imagine you teaching no offense." said Sunset.

"None taken, it has been 10 years since I've taught in this school." said Luna

"What made you take the VP job?" asked Sunset.

"As you know, students can be annoying and.............. well just a pain in the ass." said Luna, causing the two to laugh.

"Thank you." said Sunset.

"Anytime Sunset and I see that this is very hard for you, however before you do another run off if students put more notes on your locker. Please remember that you have your friends that love, care & will always protect you, so make them the first thought you have to help you stay calm if this situation happens again." said Vice Principal Luna.

"Hmm, didn't expect a tiny lecture." smiled Sunset.

"I viewed it more as helpful advice." said Luna, she then stood up and helped Sunset to her feet. "I know you realize that my sister views you as somewhat of a daughter and I sometimes see you as a niece. So whenever you need to talk with the two of us as not your principals, but as family we will fully listen." said Luna pulling Sunset into a hug(Narrator/writer here, when I wrote this part I was smiling.)

Sunset felt a warmth in her heart and her babies move inside, making her smile ear to ear.

"Thank you Aunt Luna." Sunset said quietly, continuing the let's forget where we are moment.

"You're welcome sweetheart." Luna said softly.

Luna then remember where the two were and ended the hug, breaking the very sweet moment.

"I think you should met up with your friends as your free period is about to start, OH! and you will have a one hour of detention for skipping your first two classes." Luna said clearing her throat.

"Back to VP Luna already." said Sunset.

"I slightly bent the rules and became your Aunt figure for a moment because it's what you needed. Now that it's over would you carry on." said Luna.

Sunset did as asked, rolling her eyes and with a smile on her face. Before she left the room, Sunset turned to face Luna.

"By the way what did you use to teach?" asked Sunset.

"Astronomy." said Luna.

Sunset nodded her head "Not surprised." she said and left.

Sunset walked in to the Music room when her free period started and meet her 3 friends.

"There you are!" Fluttershy said worried.

"Yea here I am." said Sunset quietly.

Pinkie pulled Sunset into a careful hug so not to hurt the babies "WE WERE WORRIED ABOUT YOU!!!!!!!!! we didn't know where you ran off to and hoped you didn't do anything stupid." Pinkie exclaimed.

"I know Pinkie, i'm sorry for worrying you all." said Sunset after Pinkie released the hug.

"Okay stupid question, why did you run off? we were with you." asked Twilight.

Sunset sighed "When I saw those notes & pictures on my locker I remembered that day were the same thing happened and I passed out. I should've expect something like this to happen again............... it just hurt me more with those notes and picture about my babies." she said quietly.

"I wonder who did this?" said Fluttershy.

"Oh, I have a pretty good guess." said Sunset.

-

Later that day Rainbow & Gilda were in the locker room for gym as the class were swimming this week. Rainbow had a rainbow two-piece swimsuit on and Gilda a brown one-piece swimsuit.

"For some reason I didn't think you, Gigi, Giselle & Soarin would put those notes on Sunset's locker." said Rainbow.

"Oh come on don't go soft on me Dash." said Gilda.

"I'm not!, it's just do ya think that picture & comments about Sunset's babies went to far?" asked Rainbow nervously.

"Look until she stops this Anon thing, that hippo needs to learn that we won't either." said Gilda.

"I'm not surprised it was you!" Sunset said annoyed, walking from the back of the locker room with Fluttershy.

"What do expect?" said Gilda.

"Some actual human decency." said Sunset.

"That's rich coming from you." laughed Gilda.

"How did you two even find out?" asked Fluttershy.

"Applejack figured it out when she noticed Sunset's stomach moving." Rainbow answered.

"By the way make sure you don't let that mutant litter of yours infect the rest of us when there born." Gilda said smirking. Sunset was very thankful that Fluttershy had grabbed a hold of her arm when Gilda said that, because if Flutters didn't, Sunset knew she would've done something stupid.

"The more I think about it, the more I realize you're just jealous." said Sunset.

"Jealous! me?" Gilda said laughing.

"Yeah, I mean you can't stand the fact the girl you hate was able to get some, while no guy has ever touched you and probably never will." Sunset smirked flustering Gilda.

Gilda got up in the latter's face "You're very lucky that you're pregnant." she said, then walked out with Rainbow.

"That seemed a little to harsh." said Fluttershy.

"Maybe." said Sunset.

"Let's not think about it now as we should get changed." said Fluttershy.

"Wait me to?" asked Sunset.

"Yes." said Fluttershy grabbing her bag and pulling out a black one-piece swimsuit with flames on it for Sunset and a pink bikini with white flowers on it for herself.

"Are you sure? cause I'm fine sitting on the bench and watching." said Sunset.

"Trust me you'll be fine." said Fluttershy with a smile.

Class was already at the pool when Fluttershy & Sunset came out of the locker room, Sunset felt very awkward wearing a swimsuit due to her larger stomach. The other students gave Sunset snide looks, but none of them said a word as Ms. Solar was in the pool area(obviously) and she was one of the most intimidating faculty members in the school.

"Alright everyone same thing today like the previous two, backstroke, breaststroke, sidestroke etc, so let's get in the water." said Ms. Solar.
Some of the guys, Rainbow & Gilda jumped into the pool and did cannonballs once Ms. Solar let the class go.

"You ok?" asked Fluttershy.

"I just feel awkward right now and everyone knowing i'm pregnant is not helping me feel any better." Sunset said anxiously and Fluttershy gave her a quick side hug to relax her.

"Sunset just a quick word." Ms. Solar said pulling Sunset to the side.

"What is it?" asked Sunset.

"Just take it nice an easy & if you feel worn out then you can stop." said Ms. Solar.

"Thanks." said Sunset.

The class started with 3 backstroke laps, then 2 breaststroke laps, 3 sidestroke laps, 3 freestyle laps & 2 butterfly stroke laps. After everyone completed the backstrokes, Fluttershy & Sunset saw the smug grin on Rainbow's face and for the breaststroke laps Fluttershy tried to legitimately race Rainbow which resulted in Flutters ending up short. Sunset was the slowest completing the backstroke and breaststroke laps and each time she ended them with a tiny bit short of breath and the silent taunting from Gilda made Sunset go harder on the the sidestroke laps and half way down the pool Sunset felt burnt out and she slowed down considerably and stopped when she got to the other end of the pool. Ms. Solar saw this and walked to down to the other end of the pool, Gilda over took Rainbow & Fluttershy and after Gilda finished her second sidestroke lap she taunted Sunset again, this time with another snide hippo comment about her. Rainbow who wasn't that far behind Gilda overheard this, swam over to Sunset when she saw that sunny was having trouble. Rainbow wrapped an arm around the pregnant girl and rubbed her shoulder, surprising both Sunset herself & Fluttershy.

"Hey just catch your breath and try to relax." said Rainbow.

"Sunset are you alright?" asked Ms. Solar.

"I-i-i just n-need a minute." said Sunset slowly catching her breath.

"Keep doing slow breaths." Rainbow said calmly, continuing to rub the latter's shoulder. However Sunset then rested her head on Rainbow causing RD to tense up a little. After a couple of minutes Sunset regained her breath and both Ms. Solar & Rainbow helped Sunset out of the pool, then Rainbow swam back to the other end. Once Rainbow got back to the other end she saw Fluttershy mouth the words "Thank You" to her.

"Alright everyone continue, 3 freestyle laps & 2 butterfly stroke laps go." said Ms. Solar walking back with Sunset.

Sunset sat down in the shallow end of the pool and relaxed when she got to the other end. When the class finished swimming the laps and were allowed to goof off for the rest of the time, Fluttershy joined Sunset sitting in the shallow end of the pool.

"That was a little scary." said Fluttershy.

"I went to hard there." said Sunset.

"I'm glad Rainbow did that." said Fluttershy.

"Surprised the hell out of me." said Sunset.

"Maybe that's a sign she still cares for you deep down?" said Fluttershy.

"Yea unlike Gilda, she's just used words, not fists against me. I'm thinking she mostly did that because of my babies, cause we heard Rainbow ask if what Gilda & her followers said about the twins was going to far." said Sunset.

-

What was that?" Gilda asked, as she took Rainbow back in the locker room after the class was allowed to goof around in the pool.

"I-i-i saw that she was in trouble." said Rainbow nervously.

"REALLY! you could've just let that hippie lap dog help her." snapped Gilda.

"I told you not to say that about Fluttershy!" Rainbow snapped back.

"Oh please Fluttershy stopped being your friend by still hanging around Sunset." said Gilda annoyed.

"Look I don't like Sunset at all right now, it was something I just did so get over it." Rainbow said, going back to the pool.

-

Fluttershy & Sunset were the last ones to leave the pool when class was reaching its end. When the two got back to the locker room, Sunset saw that she only had her black boots, red bra & underwear in her bag.

"Um........................ Shy where's my shirt & skirt?" Sunset asked confused.

"What do you mean?" asked Fluttershy.

"My shirt & skirt aren't in my bag." said Sunset.

Fluttershy checked to see if her friend's missing clothes were in her bag and when she saw they weren't in there, Fluttershy & Sunset walked around the locker room looking for them. Sunset went back to check her bag once more seeing if she missed them by mistake.

"Sunset I-um found your clothes." said Fluttershy peeking her head out from the corner.

"Cool where were th---" Sunset stopped at the end, when she walked to where Fluttershy was and saw that her somebody put her shirt & skirt in the toilet.

"You've got to be fucking kidding me!" Sunset said very annoyed.

"No surprised who did this." said Fluttershy rolling her eyes.

Fluttershy got changed, Sunset put on her underwear & bra and then Shy went to tell Ms. Solar what happened. Ms. Solar went to her office, grabbed a blue Wondercolts t-shirt & black Wondercolts sweat pants that were big enough to fit Sunset.

"It might not be your color, but it's a hell of a lot better than going out their in your underwear." said Ms. Solar giving Sunset the shirt & sweats.

"Thank you Ms. Solar." said Sunset.

"Your welcome and neither of you need to tell who you think did this." said Ms. Solar.

After class had officially ended, Ms. Solar took both Gilda & Rainbow to Principal Celestia's office were Gilda admitted to acting alone and putting Sunset's clothes in the toilet. Gilda was suspended for 2 weeks for the incident and was kicked off the soccer team with no chance of returning.

"I was happy to see you help Sunset today." said Ms. Solar to Rainbow on their walk to RD's next class.

"I saw that she was in trouble." said Rainbow quietly.

"Hmm." Ms. Solar said to herself.

Rainbow was working extra hard during the Wondercolt's soccer practice after school, she was unusually missing more goals than what was the norm for her. What she did earlier in the afternoon by helping Sunset in the pool was all she was thinking about, it felt like her brain was having a civil war trying to figure it out. Rainbow threw a soccer ball at the ground in frustration when she saw how the practice had gone.
Rainbow stood on the the field by herself just thinking about everything.

"Hi Rainbow." said a voice behind her.

Rainbow turned around to see it belonged to the pregnant girl she had been at odds with these past months and helped earlier today.

"Hi Sunset." said Rainbow.

"I wanted see your practice, since it's been a while. Y-y-you did great, like always!" Sunset said nervously.

"Yeah I know." said Rainbow.

There was silence between the two for a couple of minutes.

"So why did you help me today?" asked Sunset.

"I saw that you were in trouble." said Rainbow.

"So after months of us being at odds you suddenly decide to help me?" asked Sunset.

"YES! I don't understand why either, but I just did alright!" said Rainbow.

"Okay, okay geez." said Sunset.

"What are you doing here?" asked a voice to Sunset.

Sunset turned around and saw it was Rarity & Applejack.

"I came to thank Rainbow for helping me earlier." said Sunset.

Rarity looked at Rainbow suspiciously and the latter just looked away.

"What does it matter anyway Rare?" asked Applejack.

"Because Applejack she's exposed private lives." said Rarity.

Applejack face-palmed "You really need to let that one about us go." she said.

"I'm always amazed by how calm you are." said Rarity.

"It's because I don't care about the opinions of other people." said Applejack.

"Umm.......... this was good, however Pinkie's waiting for me so best not to keep her waiting." said Sunset, leaving the other three.

"So how'd it go?" asked Pinkie when Sunset got in her car.

"As good as could have gone." answered Sunset.

"She didn't give you that much of an answer did she?" asked Pinkie.

"No she didn't." Sunset answered.

"It's a mystery." said Pinkie.

"Yeah." said Sunset.

Author's Note

It's official I have writer's block, and the ending scene added to this chapter was supposed to be the start of chapter 10 of this story-line, but I couldn't think of another damn thing to add to it.
